before the General left this country to

and rulers whose domulons he might
enter, assuring them that attentions be-
slowed on the General would be con-
sidcred as bestowed on the United
States government, and said govern
ment would appreciate and reciprocate
accordingly. Tie King Of Siam was
particularly attentive 10 the General and
entertained him sumptuously, and now
proposes TO return the visit. This is
the statement, and the awkward ques-
ton arises who is now to entertain the
distinguished visitor, and pay his ex
penses, which Of course will be very
heavy. Will Congress make an appro-
priation for that purpose, or will the
burden fall on Mr. Evarts or General
Grant personally. or subscription be
raised among their friends As the
matter now stands it is awkward and
embarrassing. Possibly, however, his
Royal Highness, the King, may be in
duced TO change his purpose, and not
make visit; although the Secretary f.

ate $4,000 TO defray the expenses -
Now let US see what Congress will do.

A Strange Epidemic at HoutzdaIe.


For sometime past a mysterious dis
ease has been prevailing at Houtzdale,
Clearfield county, battling the skill of
the physicians, and proving particularly
fatal to its victims. John Tanney, a
young man about 2l years of age, a son
of Patrick Tanney, whose family are at
present all down with the strange epi-
demic, died on Monday evening and the
remains were inferred on Tuesday after
noon. The balance of Mr.. Tanney's
large family, including himself, are all
stricken with the same mysterious dis
ease. Mr.. John Shannon, an uncle of
Mr.. John Pender, the bar r-keeper at

day from the effects of the same COM
plant and his remains were consigned
to their last resting place on Tuesday
morning. The nature and peculiarities
of this strange disease, says the Sun, has
not yet, it seems, been ascertained, and
the Houtzdale people are considerably
exercised and distressed over its terrible
ravages, inasmuch as it seems that no
successful endeavor has as yet been made
to check it. The people there believe it
was imported by the Swedish laborers.

A Too Prompt Contributor.


Henry Sherbahn, of Middletown, Pa,
writer for the Harrisburg Independent
has been taken TO the penitentiary, SEN
fenced to term Of one year for larceny,
For several months past Middletown
has been greatly annoyed by midnight
robberies, and no clue could be obtained
to the perpetrators. All of these rob-
berries were chronicled by Sherbahn in
his newspaper correspondence, and his
accounts were surprisingly accurate. A
few weeks ago an account of robbery
at Middletown, appeared in the I,,de-
pendent over Sherbahn's signature, and
the crime was not discovered by the
owner of the property until he had read
of it in the paper and made an investi-
cation. After that Sherbahn was sus-
pected and watched. He was seen COM
ing out of store at an early hour and
the proprietor discovered that it had
been robbed. An account appeared in
the paper and Sherbahn was at once ar
rested. He confessed his crime before
he was tried.
