Of the cancer on his tongue. lie knew
that Death was approaching, but be did

other than TO express few wishes as 10
certain things TO be done at his death.
Then, when the hands of the kind friends
who had ministered TO his dying wants
came to lay out the dead body Of the
adventurous Argonaut, discovery was
made that was literally astounding.
Charley Parkhurst was woman. The
discoveries of the successful concealment
for protracted periods of the female sex
under the disguise of the masculine are
not unfrequeut, but the case Of Charley
Parkhurst may fairly claim to rank as
by all odds the most astonishing OF them
all. That 4 young woman should as-
sumo the dangers of the voyage oflS46
to the then almost mythical California
dangers over which hardly pioneers
still grow boastful-has in it
SUFFICIENT OF THE WONDERFUL.
That she should achieve distinction in
an occupation above all professions
calling tor the best physical qualities Of
nerve, coolness and endurance, and that
she should add TO them the almost 70 b.
mantle personal bravery that enables
one to fight ones way through the am
bush OF an enemy, seems almost fabu-
Ions, aud that for thirty years she should
be in constant aud intimate association
with men and women, and-tnat her true
sex should never have been suspected,

The Fur trade.

The trade in furs or skins Of our
small native animals Is carried on to
quite a large extent In this vicinity. 1t
would not be supposed that a sale
amounting to over $500 in one lot would
be made here in Oxford, and now, toe,
when prices are extremely low for
these goods but such was the case on
Monday last, when eur home dealer, J.
A. Andrews, unlosded his winter
gatherings. The purchaser was an sx-
tepsivs Philadelphia dealer, Edmund
R. Lyon, who goes over. the country
gathering up and purchasing large
and small lots. J. D. Miller, Of Russell
vile, also disposed Of a lot to Mr..
Lyons amounting to over $500. These
skins include skunk (polecat), fox,
oppossum, muskrat, mink, etc., the
animals having been trapped and shot
principally by boys during the winter
months. Mr.. Andrews lot included
over thousand skunk and mink skins,
he having disposed Of large quantity
Of nuskrat, oppossum, coon, and other
skins earlier In the season. Mr.. Miller's
sale was the second or third he has made
during the season, his total amount
ing 70 over $1,000. The prices Of these
skins are far below what they comman-
ded years ago, when minks sold as
high as s12 to $15, and Skunks IS or

Poor Opinion or Garcelon,

"If Ex-Gov. Garcelon's financial ir-
rsgularities," says the Augusta, Me-,
Journal, "do not amount in the eye Of
the law to larceny or embezzlement
then we are very much mistaken. In
the attempt to steal the State Legisla
ture and the Government from the men
rightfully elected by the people, we
have traced the oonspirators through
falsshood, forgery, usurpation, and all
scoundrelism that would aid them in
their conspiracy, and at last we have
Garoelon's soandalous confession of his
financial crime to give q darker shade
to the great villainy attempted under

stairway in the High School, at Madison,

as they would pony, and have gone
