Another Contribution to American His-
 tory.
 KALAMAZOO, Dec. 25.-The Daily Telegraph publishes an interview with two ex-oficers of, the Michigan cavalry regiment who were en- gagged in the capture of Jeff Davis. One of the officers states that private soldier of the Fourth Michigan cavalry at Richmond identified Davis horse and took possession of it, finding saddlebags and holsters filled with gold coin. The soldier buried the gold, and a year or more after the war returned and recovered the money, brought it North and gave numerous pieces to members of his regi- ment. The sum was originally $14.0OO, being part of the money divided among the Confederate Presidents retinue at Abbeyville when crowded by federal cavalry. An officer of another regiment states that subsequent to the capture of Davis large sum of specie to be $8O, 900 or more-from 8 Confederate specie train, was discovered by the soldiers in a house near the ferry where the fugitive President and 8 wagon train crossed the river into Georgia. This money was scattered among the soldiers and lost.

About elev- en o'clock last night colored boy visited the store for some purpose, and finding it clesed booked under the doors and saw the men ly- ing on the floor, but all his efforts to arouse them proved unavailing. He started to in form the fathers of the young men and on their return they found the store in flames. Before reaching the store they heard two explosions.
