A Petrifled Woman.

On Thursday last, says the Carson
New appeal, Alonzo Zaleno, an Ital
ian fisherman, discovered petrifed wo-
man at Cascade Lake. He was going
out to fish at the time, and when pushing
off his boat, struck his oar against some
thing that attracted his attention. He
investigated the matter, and to find a
petrifed hand protruding from the sand
and pebbles ON thebeach. In a short time
he had unearthed woman in complete
state of petrifaction. It was small in
size, brown in color, and scrawny and
emaciated. The petrifaction had hide
GUS appearance, and the body originally
ly woman. The left breast was well
developed, but the arms and legs were
not much larger than the bones should
have been, and the fingers of the right
hand were gone. The petrifaction
weighed nearly two hundred pounds, and
more unsightly object could not well
be imagined. 1t was brought down to
Lake Bigler in the afternoon, and l.. J.
Wilson, of San Francisco, has offered
$1Oe for it, as he wished to present it to
the Academy of Science. In all prob
ability the body is that of an Indian
woman. There is tradition that years
ago the Indians had battle at Cascade
Lake, in which the squaws joined, and
the dead were buried on the shore of the
lake. Under certain conditions the hui
man cadaver petrifes; more especially in
water. The finder wants $3.50. for his
prize, and it is probable that the sum
will be paid by the academy, and the
curiosity sent to San Francisco.

A special cablegram from Paris to the Cln-
cinnati Commercial relates the following hor-
rible accident: "a frightful and probably un-
precedented balloon accident occurred last
evening at Courbevoire, near Paris. A large
crowd had assembled to witness novel and
perilous ascent of gymnast called Auguste
Navarro, who had volunteered to perform
number of athletic feats on trapeze suspended
from the Montgolfier balloon named Vidou-
villaise. Rejecting the advice of the bystand-
ers, Navarro refused to allow himself to be tied
to the trapeze. There was no car attached to
the balloon. About o'clock the Vidouyllliase
was let loose from its moorings and rose in the
air. Navarro, hanging to the trapeze, appeared
quite confident, and repeatedly saluted the
spectators. When, however, the balloon had
reached the height of nearly one thousand
yards the crowd were Mortified to see him sud-
denly let go of the bar and fall. The tragic
descent was watched in breathless excitement.
At last the body reached the ground, striking
with such force that it made a hole in the earth
two feet deep, and rebounded four yards. 1t
was crushed and mangled almost beyond recog-
milton. Meanwhile. the balloon, freed from its
human ballast, shot up with lightning speed,
and soon disappeared from sight. Late in the
evening it burst, and fell at Menilmontant,
much to the CONSERVATION of the inhabitants in
that Partisan quarter.

Mormon Emigration.

A New York dispatch of November 4 says:
''The Wisconsin brought 243 Mormons yester-
day, under the leadership of John Nicholson,
editor of the MiLennidl Star, of Liverpool
organ of the Church in Great Britain, and ten
other Elders, among them E. D. Snow, son Of
the notorious Mormon apostle; Edward G..
Brain, Secretary of the British Mission, and
Jacob Riyoir, an Italian. There has been a
mission in Italy during the past three years,
and as the first results of it ten Italians were
among Yesterdays arrivals. The others we're
divided into ITS from Great Britain, "a from
Scandinavia, II from Germany. from Switzer-
land 2 from Holland, and one from France.
They are not all destined for Utah, some being
intended for other Territories, into which the
Mormons have recently been extending their
domination. This is the last batch that will
come out this year. The total arrivals for 1880
foot up 72O. The impression here is not strong
that a President vino battles with Mormonism
paper and accepts public Sunday receptions
from Mormons at Salt Lake will meet with
much success in abating this growing evil"

A Business Darkey.

An enterprising darkey of calculating
turn of mind, says Florida paper, called
on gentleman who owns garden in
the City of Tallahassee and represented
that the garden was rapidly growing up
with grass, which, if left to 60 to seed,
would render it impossible to grow vege-
tables ON the spot next year, and pro-
posed to cut it down for a certain sum,
which the gentleman agreed to pay. He
then went to the gentleman who had re-
Gently rented the premises and made the
same proposition, which was again ac-
cepted, the latter not knowing, of course,
that the owner had agreed to pay for the
work, rs the 'darkey had studiously kept
that to himself. After cutting the grass
and collecting pay from both gentleman
our hero proceeded to the owner of n cow,
sold the grass for double what he charged
for cutting it, pocketed four times as
much money as the work was worth, and
went on his way humming hymn tune.

Cremation Ct the Dead.

Exactly how to dispose of the ashes of
the dead in the most satisfactory manner,
after cremation is accomplished, is still a
question. The ancient practice was to
deposit the ashes in funeral urn, to be
preserved in tomb or other sacred
place. This is also the modern custom
But if tombs are to be required then there
is not much need for cremation, as the
corpse may as well be buried in the tomb
without cremation.
A recent American patent consists in
providing parlor bust of the deceased,
cut in marble, and in making hole in
the back of the bust, wherein the ashes
are to be deposited after cremation of the
body.
A further improvement, suggested by
one Of our lady correspondents, is to pre-
pare wet mixture of cements for arti-
fetal stone or marble, and sprinkle the
ashes of the deceased into the mixture,
which is then to be cast or pressed into
the form of busts, statuettes, OF other OBJ
iects. In this way various members of a
family might possess enduring portions
of the ashes of the departed one.-Scie,a-

The American Flag Torn and Trampled
CpOn by Chilfnns.


A dispatch from Panama says Capt. Sage, of
the American steam launch Isabel, has made q
statement to the United States Consular Agent
at Payton, of the seizure Of his vessel in that
port by the Chiiians, while he was on shore
Charles Aston and Robert McLeish, the engi-
neers, declare they were on board at the time,
and we're ordered out of the launch by officers
who took possession of her, taking down the
United States flag. One Of the Chilian officers
stamped on the flag several times, uttering
curses against the people Of the United States,
who, as they said, were the cause of the blowing
up of two of their war vessels during the pres
ent war with Peru. The Chilians took the
launch alongside the war ship Italia, and Aston
and McLeish were taken on board of the O'Hig
gins OIL the 18th, and were landed on the 22d
and delivered to the Consulate. The clothes
and all that belonged to the engineers were
taken from them. The Chilian flag was hoisted
in place of the United States colors as soon as
they took possession of the launch. Patricio
Lynch, chief of the expedition, sent an officer
to the Consulate on the 21st. and demanded
that Capt. Thomas Gaize 60 to him and take
with him the Isabers register. Capt. Gaize was
accordingly taken to Lynch, and after ascer-
tanning that he was Captain of the Isabel, he
was taken prisoner and the register captured,
although properly made out by the United
States Consul at Callao. Capt. Gaize was i'm
mediately sent to the O'Higgins, where he was
detained twenty-four hours, and, after taking
his affidavit was sent on board the Italia. There
he was taken before Lynch, who offered Capt.
Gaize the value of the launch, providing he
would not make any claim to the government,
which Capt. Gaize refused to accept. Immedi-
ately after Capt. Gaize was placed at liberty,
and entered his Protest, claiming from the
Chilian Government $4,000 in gold for the
damages received and the value of the launch.
