A New York special, Wednesday.
revived the story Of the Tichborne
claimeht who has sprung up in Cali
fornia, and says that further import
ant evidence has been discovered to
strengthen the claims Of the San Fran
cisco man. This is the discovery Of
the existance OF Jules Benart, Sir
Rodgers servant, in South America,
oho veriiies the story Of Col. Barnes,
client, and says he will give corrobative
testimony. The sister of the alleged
claimants wife lives in Brooklyn. A
Mrs, Earl, after Ferris statement,
came from San Francisco and denied
that he was Rodger Tichborne. For
various reasons, Ferris second a
riage had been made distastefnl to the
relatives of his first wife, and they lost
no opportunity to denounce him as an
impostor on every occasion. Their de-
n%unciations, however, brought for
ward the following from Mr.. Benart.
Buffalo, Aug. 13.
Mrs. Earl:
Madame: / see you have
been giving out that the man in Cali
f,rnia, who claims to be Sir Rodger
Tichbolne, is not Sir Rodger, but your
brother-in-law and an impostor. You
and his daughter were wrong to say
this, as / can prove he is the real Sir
Rodger; as you will see from what /
now have to say, 1 am the Jules Ben
art who was valet to Sir Rodger. He
engaged me at Valparaiso in '53. l
travelled with him to Callao and Lima,
and from there I went with him to
Ecuador. Sir Rodger never embark
ed in the Bella, but went across South
America. On the pampas, Sir Rodger
vas taken with fever and had to be
taken to the abode Of Juenna Sanchez,
near Camadu.. 1 staid with HIM more
than a week and thought he must die,
and was sick myself with fever SO 1
went to Conception and was Ill for q
long time. 1 did not take Sir Rodgers
baggage or jewelry only a little money
to pay my expense; and If they were
stolen: 1t was not by me, but by some
one else. 1 did what 1 could for Sir
Rodger and thought he was dead until
l met him in '61. He was then lieut.
enant in the Wisconsin cavalry. He
passed then under the name Of Charles
Ferris. He seemed mad against me,
for he would not speak, although I tried
to speak with him. Sir Rodger left the
regiment some time after. / knew the
claimant in England could not be Sir
Rodger, but 1 said nothing and have
said nothing of this before, because /
had plenty of good reasons to keep
quiet. But You are wrong to say that
this is not Sir Rodger. 1 can prove he
is. 1 am going to Canada for a few
days, and I shall 60 to New York and
see you and demonstrate to you you
were wrong to say what you did.
your very humble servant.
JULES BENART.
Sir Rodger car be identified by marks
which he has apon his body. 1 know
these marks we'll. and 1 swear to
them. I shall call on you as 1 get back
from Canada. Keep quiet about this
until BEE you 1t is to your interest
and that Of his daughter that Sir Rodg-
or gets that which to him belongs.

THE PRESIDENT.

During the early part of last week
the President became seriously worse
from the effects of his weak stomach,
which utterly refused food. Severe
nausea set in, the pulse ran up to $50
and great weakness ensued. Much
alarm was occasioned and at one time
death seemed to be near at hand. The
wound all the while seemed to be doing
we'll, and toward the latter part of the
week, he was able to retain a slight
quantity of food. which increased his
strength and made the situation much
more hopeful. The improvement has
gone on up to this time, and it would
seem that the chances are favorable for
a recovery.

CHICAGO. ILL.,, Aug. 19.-Old timers
on Change say heavier business was
transacted to-day than ever before in
one session. The Excitement ats the
opening was intense and continued
throughout the morning and up to l
o'clock. when the gong dispersed the
crowd. The tendency was steadily up
until about the last hour, when, with
many fluctuations, prices began to
break and there was at the close very
weak feeling and lower figures. No
failures were reported. Provisions did
not share in the heavy advance but were
exceedingly active.
