Mr.. LincOln'S Remains PetriIIed.

A correspondent of the Missouri Re.
publican writes that paper from Spring
field, Illinois:
"The attempt to steal the remains of
Mr.. Lincoln about three years since is
remembered by almost every one.
Ever since then the public, in fact
everybody save half dozen persons
or SO, intimately connected with the
Lincoln monument association, sup
posed Mr.. Lincoln's remains were en-
closed in the marble sarcophagus which
stands in the vestibule leading to the
crypts, where other members of tn,
family are entombed. This ia not so.
rs your correspondent learned to-day
for the first time. All that remains of
Mr.. Lincoln have been buried in the
ground, under some portion of the i'm
menSe granite pile forming his monu-
ment, ever since the attempted rob-
berry, and are TOW III q complete state
of petrifcation. This startling state
ment is from one who knows, and will
be news to all but very few persons.
as il was understood ut the time that
the embalmers' work at Washington.
Immediately after the death of Mr..
Lincoln, was not Il success, but a
bungle Soon after the remains were
ent9mbed II this city, in 1866, it
was said they were in bad state of
decomposition. and that the embalm.
ing was not working. This see ms to
have beer an error, as there is no doubt
but that the statement that his remains
have turned to stone Is true"

What a Jefferson Darky Rescued From
the Waters of the Mississippi.
New Orleans Times Democrat.

Several pieces of the Inflated steamer
Golden City, burned near Memphis
the other day, drifted past here last
night. A boat, very little scorched by
the flames, was caught by Mr.. Emile
Schroeder, of Algiers, and small por-
ton of the plot house was found by
some negroes ashore on the levee OF
Greenvilie.
Bob Williams, eolored who works on
the old Preston place, half mile
above Camp Parapet, Jefferson Parish.
while engaged picking driftwood in
the river, about dusk yesterday even
ing, met with something of an adven-
ture. He was just about to tie rope
to a piece of scorched wreckage of a
steamboat that was drifting by in mid
stream, when an animal, which must
have been crouching low on the tim
Der, and completely hidden from view,
sprang into his skitl. Williams, and
his nephew, who accompanied him,
tumbled over each other into the end
of the boat at the appearance of this
Strange visitor, which. in the growing
darkness, they perceived to be large
and fierce looking beast. The boat
drifted down stream nearly a mile be
fore Williams recovered sufficiently to
advance to the middle of the boat and
secure the oars, which the boy had
dropped in his fright Finding tie
animal very docile. his courage gradu-
ally returned, and resuming the oars.
he rowed direct for the shore. A
closer inspection by moonlight showed
a large animal, nearly twice the size of
a Newfoundland dog, of dingy, dirty
color, with its hair much scorched. an
eye lost by some accidens, and its flank
bloody from recent gunshot wound.
Il was docile, apparently frightened
into timidity, and groaned piteously as
it lay at Williams feet.
The skiff reached the leyee at the
foot of Monroe street, in Carrolton,
and Williams and the boy disembarked,
followed, TO their surprise, by the
wounded beast. Il was then after s
O'Clock, and the levee was nearly de-
serted. Some negroes, however, living
in the shanties standing just against the
levee, came up, observed Williams
capture and discussed it. As all of the
Carrollton negroes have been at a cir
Gus one time or another, none of them
hesitatcd TO pronounce the beast full
grown lion, notwithstanding the fact
that much OF his name had been burn
ed of. At the corner ofSt. Charles and
Carrollton avenues, near the car station,
the crowd had grown so large snd boist-
erous as to attract the attention of OFF,
Ger Mean, who came up to see what
the matter was. The officer threaten
ed Williams with arrest as disturber
of the peace, and when shown his queer
capture drew his weapon and was about
to shoot it, when Mr.. Branston, q well
known gentleman of Henry Clay ave-
nue., stepped forward and offered to
take charge of the brute making him
self responsible for any damage it
might infiict, gave Williams $40 for his
claim, and marched off with the lion,
which he had secured with a rope, fol-
lowed by mob of men and boys. The
king of the forest, as docile as lamb,
nmped along dumbly behind mis- new
master to the Carrollton Hotel, which
had been closed for some weeks. The

When TO Eat Delieacies.

Al party of six persons, if the din
ner consisted of soup, fish, joint, and
three woodcockS. maintain il would
be much better to serve the woodcocks
before the joint, both on the score of
enjoyment and health-of enjoyment,
because a delicacy, wnen the appetite
is nearly satisfied, loses great part OF
Its relish, and is reduced 10 the level OF
palmer food while the appetite is keen
of health, because it is much more
easy to regulate the appetite when the
least tempting dishes are brought last.
By serving delicacies first, people
would dine both more satisfactorily
and more moderately, and entertain
mems would be less costly and less
troubiesome-Food and Feeains

keys of the hotel were obtained, and
the beast placed in dog-house in the
garden, secured only By slender rope.
The news had in the meantime
spread over the town, and more than
100 persons begged so hard for peep
at the brute that Mr.. Branston finally
consented, and the garden was thrown
open to the public. Considerable
trepldatlon was exhibited at approach
ing him at first, but all were soon won
over by his docility, and several per-
sons summoned up courage enough to
touch the beast, who did not seem in
the least to be disturbed by this.
George Fairchild, one of the visitors,
declared that he knew the lion well,
having travelled over six months with
it IN stoves Philadelphia Circus, i-.st
lost on the Golden City. The lion
known as Nero, was one of the attrac-
tions of that show; ne was only eight
years old, extremely ferocious, and was
reported to have killed keeper, Geo.
PICARD, at Beaufort, S. c., last winter
The animal must have escaped from
his cage in the burning vessel, and
f1oated down to this city from the scene
of the catastrophe.
Mr.. Branston kept an open lion show
until 1880 p. m. when the visitors
were dismissed and the lion shut up in
the dog house, a negro, well armed
being stationed at the door to prevent
his escape.
The beast will remain in his present
home until the Woman's Industrial
Association of Carrollton, to whom Mr.
Branston intends to present him, car
secure proper quarters.
Nero" might be made the begin
ming of a geological garden at Carroll
ton, such as Louisville. St. Louis, anc
Cincinnati possess. 1t is very doubtful
whether his former owners would have
any claim over beast rescued in Thu
manner.
