Russian Horse-Thieyes.

HoRsE-sTEALING is sort of epidemic
just now in parts of Russia. There
are many organized bands of horse
thieves, who conduct their business on
a peculiar plan. They steal horses, hide
them in some secluded place, and then
inform the owners that for certain
ransom they can recover them. The
owners usually submit to the terms Of
fered by the thieves, for long expert
fence has shown the uselessness of suing
them in the courts. But sometimes tho
peasants take the law into their own
hands, and put a sudden stop to tho
demonstrating epidemic. Lately, in tho
province Of Orel, desperate thief ex-
patiated his exploits with his life. The
peasants tied 8 rope around his head,
and tightened it till death ensued.

fore gold was discovered in Coloma and
was a good prospcctor.
One early day Of May, 1870 the train
stopped on the chrc of what is now
known as Gold Cam on, near the Car
son river, to let the uninuls feed on

Gold Canyon, still retained Orr was
keeping a rude chart Of The country tray
cled over, taking bearings only north
and south and cSt;m,ting the distances
travelled every day. Cod Canyon was
marked On the chart, which was lost by
Orr in 1850, while returning East to be
married. The train soon after resumed
travel, going to the head of the Carson
Valley. There was met q party of
seven, who had left the train at the
sink Of the Humboldt, intending to 90
in advance to California and select
good locations for the remainder of the
party. They had been unable to cross
the country and had been lost in the
snow in the mountains four or five days
unable to find the divide to Hangiown,
and seeking Carson to recupcratc. A
stay in Carson for three weeks followed
when Orr, Kelly and several others re-
turned to Gold Canyon and resumed
prospecting. Kelly and Orr went up
the canyon until little fork was
reached, when work was begun. The
party had but few tools and Orr had
nothing but a butchcr-knifc.
While Kelly was working Orr noticed
q very narrow place at the fork, where
the water barely covered slab Of slate
rock. Idly he examined it, and MOTTO
ing a small crevice near the edge, drove
the butcher-knife into it, breaking out
a piece. The water running over it
washed away the underlying dirt, and
in few seconds Orr discovered q golden
nugget where the rock had covered.
1t was quickly removed and aftcrward
found to weigh 1926. This was on the
first of juno, 1850 and thirty years ago.
Prospecting was continued and though
gold dust was found in several places
throughout the canyon, Orr's was the
only nugget found. The party lacked
tools and provisions and being bent on
reaching California, abandoned the can
yon and arrived at Lcek Springs. July
4, 1850. Orr offered tho nugget to
Kelly, who refused it and as it was the
first piece of gold he ever dug, Orr for
few years kept it as a souvenir on that
account.
OF late years the inquiry as to the
first discovery of gold in Nevada, and
the settlement of the discovery upon
Mr.. Orr and his nugget, have induced
him to state that the nugget is not for
sale, nor will it be donated to any
museum. He has four grown sons and
will keep it for them, to be passed
down as an heirloom. Mr.. Lord writes
that the survey in their contemplated
work will acknowledge the first discov-

sky, who had just been appraised of the
terrible tidings by the Princess Viazem-
sky. Prince Viazemsky himself, and
Prince Mitchersky were in the cabinet
adjoining the wounded mans chamber.
They shook their heads, and told
Joukovsky that there was no hope. The
chief anxiety expressed by the patient
when his friends joined him was that his
wife should not be told what had hap
pened. But it was necessary to tell
her. The poor lady was led to his bed
side, and his little children were brought
to him, half asleep, from their cradles.
He fingered yet some thirty-six hours,
in intense agony, and the last sacra-
ments were administered to him. On
the second morning, after casting look
OF affection upon the books on his
shelves, saying, "Farewcll, dear old
friends" he turned to Count Vielgorski.

stood by him, and said, "Lift me up
higher, higher His friends raised
him; and then, as Joukovsky writes, a
"kind of splendor came over his face.
He seemed to wake, and, in q clear
voice, said: MY life is over" "You
have been brought back to life," ex-
claimed Dahl. "My life is finished,'
repeated the patient, and in moment
he was dead. 1--WE read in his coun-
tenancc," continues Joukovsky, "the
development of grave, yet amazed
thoughtfulness-of a vision of percep-
ton, profound, entire, radiant. We felt
inclined to ask him, 'What seest thou,
friend"" Thus died, in the 3sth year
OF his age, Alexander Pouchkine, the
greatest poetic genius that the frigid re-
gions of the North have produced, and
whom some have called g the Byron of
Russia. "--Lon<lom Telegram.

HOMICIDE AT HARRINGTON, MO.

DE LAssUs, Mo-, Sept. ia fatal shoot,
ing scrape took place in front of the court
house at Pennington to-day, in which Nc
Mullin, sheriff, and Henry Horn, a noted
desperado were the participants. There
appears to have been an old fued between
them, arising out Of the frequent arrests of
Horn tor violations of the law, the last one
taking place yesterday, he being arrested
for disturbing the peace at the fair grounds.
1t is said that Horn came to town this
morning with the avowed intention of kill
ing the sheriff, for he expressed as much to
several parties. He also tried to shoot
another man at the fair grounds to-day and
was only prevented from to doing so by the
interference of friends. The facts as
CLEANED by your reporter are as follows:
McMullin and Horn were standing on the
sidewalk on Main street Horn was little
under the influence of liquor and McMulin
was trying to get him to desist in the use of
obscene and abusive language. Horn then
started across the street, saying some
thing and pulling his pistol at the same
time. McMullin followed about five steps
and Horn had crossed about two thirds of
the street, when he suddenly turned, TAX
ing deliberate aim at McMullin, who imme-
diately brought his pistol in position. Horn
then fired, striking McMullin near the nip
pie on the right side, McMulln returned
til fie, hitting Horns little finger, who
fired another shot, striking McMullin in the
abdomen. McMullin fired again, striking
Horn just below the nipple but fortunately
for him his suspender buckle kept the ball
from penetrating his body. Had it met no
obstacle Horn would have been no more.
Horn fred again, missing McMulin entire.
ly. McMullin then shot him through the
thigh. Horn fell and raised his pistol to
shoot again, but seeing his adversary on
his feet ready to give another shot, he
threw up his pistol saying ~ give up; l
am dying" whereupon McMullin stood over
him, saying: "You have also done the work
for me-" McMullIn then walked Off and
would have. fallen had not his friends as
sisted him to his home. McMullin will |
die. The sympathy of the community is
with our sheriff who was killed in the dis
charge of his duty. He is about 60yyears
Of age and leaves an interesting family to
mourn his loss. Horn is in Jail.

That there is no humbug about even the

on the authority Of the Springfield Republi-

"Barnum is once more INDICATED. There
was some scepticism about town AZ IN

prove to be foreign or home savages, especi-
ally since the excitement at Hartford few
weeks ago when MIR. Wilder interviewed an
alleged Zulu, who was making show of
himself, in the Zulu tongue, and found that
ne was as Ignorant of the language as of
Greek. Considerable interest was awak-
ened IN Barnum's heather when it became
known to limited circle in this CITY that
the Grout family, who now reside here but
were long engaged in missionary work in
Africa, where the younger members were
born, would try the Hartford experiment
over again. When the Zuus were adj

DEATH OF A CATHOLIC PRIEST.
Rev. p. j. Fitzsimmons, for the
last two years priest in charge of
the Catholic church at Keyser, died
of typhoid fever in that place on
Wednesday of last week, and his re-
mains were brought to Martinsburg
on Friday evening of last week for
interment. The remains, accompa-
MED by several church societies of
Westernport, Md, and the Society
of the church of the Assumption of
Keyser, were met at the depot at
7:3O P. NJ, by st. Joseph's and ST..
Patrick's Beneficial Societies of this
place, headed by Bishop Keane, of
Richmond, and Fathers Dougherty
and O'Rielly, and escorted to the
cemetery of st. Joseph's Catholic
church, where the burial services
were completed. The deceased was
native of County Gavin, Ireland,
and came to this country when quite
young, and was very popular as a
citizen, gentleman and priest.
