MONTREAL, June 26-Information has been
received from Charles Arpin, advocate at
Washington for the Canadian hay exporters,
asking for rebate Of the duty, said to have
been illegally overcharged for many years at
the frontier by United States customs officers,
that the legitimacy of the demand has been
conceded by the authorities, and when all
necessary inquiries are made into the matter
the duty will be refunded to all possessing
bona fde claims. This resolve of the Washing
ton government is in consequence of the final
judgment of the supreme court that the cor
rect duty under the tariff laws was 10 per cent
and not 20, as charged. The amount claimed
is about $2,0C0,C00, but it is thought strict in
vestigation will show that some demands will
not stand the test of inquiry.

The Golden Hoard Of n Farmer.

A few days ago, at his home near Pa
ducah, Ky. Mr.. Johu Peck passed from
mundane trials and tribulations. Mr..
Peck was 70 years of age at the time OF
his demise, and was we'll known rs a
gentle, frugal old farmer, who enjoyed
the unqualified respect and esteem OF
the neighborhood i'll which he had
passed so many years OF usefulness. He
was the father of seven sons and daugh-
tiers, all of which have grown to the es-
tate of man and womanhood. Just be-
fore his death he called his youngest
son to his bedside, and, after some re-
marks of an advisory nature, stated that
be had saved $1,000 in gold for each of
his children. He attempted to tell the
boy where he had concealed it, but be-
fore be was able to conclude bis story
the grim messenger appeared and the
old gentleman passed to his reward. A
search for the hidden treasure discovered
two Jugs with the necks knocked of, in
which Mr.. Peck had been accustomed
to drop his savings. One was concealed
in the smoke house and the other in the
stable. Together they were found to
contain some $500 in gold. Those
who are acquainted with MIR. Peck are
firm in the conviction that the rest OF
the money he spoke OF Is hidden some
where about ths premises, but a very
rigid search has tailed to find 1t up to
this writing.

A White.Tafled Meteor.

Saturday last witnessed an exciting
episode along Water street and the pan
handle of Keyser. A large deer chased
by dogs, was first discovered along the
western brow of Fort Piano, facing the
town. Walking and sometimes trotting,
he attracted general attention and ex-
cited men, women and children, who
gazed up at the kingly forester that
seemed confused and undecided whether
to take the corporation by storm or re-
trace its course. A black canine came
round the point and saw the buck about
the same time that his deership recog
nized the dog. The dog made dash
at the deer and cut short all deliberation
on the subject aud down they came 'nip
and tuck, blowing up the rocks, the
buck skimming the underground and
the dog ripping through on a double
tongue, close in his rear, making the
descent in full view ola hundred spec
tators. Just east of the creek, Oh dead
run for the Potomac. several dwellings,
gardens, ETC., confronted the frightened
and hotly-pursued animal, but he paused
not nor avoided any distractions; and
bounding gardens, over wall and into
the Potomac, swan across and made
bis everlasting escape in the timber
skirting Queen Z oint.-Keyser Tribune.

Living ON Human Flesh.

AL. Packer, the man who ID supposed
to have murdered five prospectors near
the present site of Lake City, COL, nine
years ago, aud sfterward to have lived
the greater part of sixty days on their
flesh, has been brought to Denver by the
Sheriff of Hinsdale county. Packer was
with q party of five prospectors, who
were overtaken by the snow in the
mountains. According to bis own story,
to which be adds his affidavit, one of
the men, who had gone crazy from his
sufferiugs and lack of food, killed the
four others, and then threatened Packer
himself, when the latter shot him. After
the death of the men he tried to get
away, but was prevented by the snow,
and tor nearly two months lived upon
the dead men. Packers story is not
generally believed, as the people living
10 the county where the murders were
committed say that all the bodies were
found together-three with bullet holes
through the skulls, and the other with
his head chopped of. Packer says that
the crazy man killed the Others with a
Ratchet. He was arrested shortly after
the murder, but escaped.
