LIFE AT LEADvILLE.-I know o man
here whose Eastern home has every mod
ern luxury. He has made $40, 900 in the
camp, and is worth well toward half
million. Helives in two-roomed cabin.
The furniture consists of three chairs,
two rude hunks, one stove and large
table. There is pile of ore in one cor
ner, pile of wood in another, and 9
heap of blankets, gunny-sacks and old
clothes in the third. The rear room con-
tanning small but very select assortment
of kitchen utensils and household supplies
placed within easy reaching distance of
the stove. This gentleman and his
partner do their own cooking and house
hold work, but the way in which they do
it would make an Eastern housckeeper

A NEW AND USEFUL INVENTION
Rev. J. Bachman Haskell, now of Staun-
ton, Virginia, though native and form
erly a resident of Charleston, South Car.
olina, has employed his leisure hours in
bringing to light an invention which
seems calculated not only to benefit the
public but to remunerate the inventor
handsomely. 1t is new principle by
which the temperature of food may be
preserved tor long time either above or
below that of the surrounding atmosphere.
The patent was taken out July 20, 1880,
by Messrs. Mum g. Co. 1t is susceptible
of various applications, among which the
following is the most important.
"The Workingman's Friend, or Cook
ing Can" is dinner pail which has the
following remarkable powers: A work
mans wife, while lie is eating his break
fast al 6 d. M, puts his dinner into the
"can" and at u or p. M, the workman
finds warm meal and hot coffee: In
the same manner ice cream, being placed
in the can, will be preserved in frozen
state for six to eight hours. :,
The following experiments were tried
and attested: 1st. Stewed oysters and
coffee were put into the can at 8 p. m.
and left in room little above freezing
point. At 1890 p n,., (seven and half
hours afterwards the can was opened in
the presence of twelve gentlemen, who
partook of the contents and found the
oysters and coffee registered $50 degrees
r. Cd. A can was filled with ice cream
at o. No., and being taken with an ex-
cursion party to Weir's Cave. on a hot
Summers day, was opened at l.30 p. M,
after having been exposed to the sun
part of the time, and the ice cream was
still frozen. If the directions are fol-
lowed, this vessel is warranted to keep
food and coffee warm for six hours, even
if left meanwhile in an ice house; also to
keep ice cream frozen six hours, even if
left in the sun.

Hon. VIM. II. English, who, besides
being the Democratic nominee for the
Vice Presidency, is chairman of the In-
diana Democratic State Central Commit
tee last week wrote to the Hon. John G.
New, chairman of the Republican State
Committee, to propose that they should
issue joint circular, to be sent to all
townships and election precincts, re-
questing that the local inspector in every
case shall appoint o judge and clelk Of
the opposite party to bis own. This
proposition Of Mr.. English, which has
beer accepted by Mr.. New and reduced
into the shape of former agreement, is
said by both these distinguished gentle
men to be made not only in the interest
of pure elections, but also to the end
that all suspicion or appearance OF fraud
may be removed. 1t is sincerely to be
hoped that this agreement may secure all
the ends that are sought by it, so as to
protect the Indiana election from the in
furious charges laid against the conduct
of elections in some other States.
Six members of the Readjuster Club
of Lpnchburg, Va, have resigned their
membership "for reasons best known to
themselves" From every section OF
Virginia comes reports of similar with.
drawals from the Readjuster party, and
the indications are that when the battle
is Joined in November the real contest
will be between the regular Democratic
and Republican parties, with the Read
iusters far in the rear. Exposure of the
covert coalition which was attempted by
the managers, both Republican and
Readjuster, appears to have excited the
rank and file of each to indignant re-

OUR WASHINGTON LETTER.


A!OHi NAi tNE"'ei correspondent
WASHINGTON, jan 18th, 1850.
have talked with Appointment Maine Re,
publican, who Just returned from the field
OF operations, about the situation there and
the probabilities from his stand point He
claims that the Republicans are certain Of
finally controlling the state government,
and shall give as clearly and briefly as
possible his idea Of the plans and the results
anticipated. Mr. Hale. he says, went into
the Fusion Legislature in order 10 give them
plurality that they might, if 50 disposed,
80 far do justice as TO seat the fourteen Re.
publican representatives from thecitics that
are entirely distranchiscd by the governors
count They refused to do this, and after
protesting against the legality Of the Fusion
organization next day, without quorum,
he quit them. The Republicans are now
waiting patiently for the crumbling of the
Fusion combination. This Republican says
II is held together solely by the tear of
many Of its members that they will be
charged with bribery if they break away;
and then those who hold certificates. to
which the election didn't entitle them, will
begin to go home, and several of the Green.
back members who were fairly elected will
act with the Republicans, thus the legisla.
ture will finally be organized by those who
were elected according TO the returns Of
the local officers Ny authority says that
the Fusionists will not las, much longer.
That is the Republican view. find the
other side less clearly stated but that the
Democrats are no less sure of holding the
state as Garcelon left it. Several of the
Greenback men who have been here lately,
however, are doubtful about it, and some
go 80 far as to say that if the Democrats dc
not show clear and unms,akable title
very soon, their friends will 50 act as to put
the state government in working order re-
