THREE EVENTS IN LIFE.-A Jefferson
county ranchman now visiting Butte,
Montana. says the miner, tells of neigh.
Dor who last week went through an
experience in which the sunshine and
shadow of life alternated so rapidly that
it is worthy of note. Being an industri.
Gus young farmer and DESTROYS of settling
down, he married young woman,
which of itself was sufficient to make .
man happy for an indefinite length OF
time, but the wife seems to have been OF
a practical turn anxious to brighten the
family hearthstone in substantial man.
ner, on the day following the nuptials,
presented her husband with bouncing
girl baby. On the following day the
child died and was burisd on the next
day. A marriage, birth and death all
in three days is an enterprising record.

Among other prominent men there is
ex-Lieutenant-Govern Dorsheimer Of
this State, and T.. Barksdale of Missis-
sippi, who is presumably the Barksdale
that served in the House and went out
with his State when secession lit the
flames of civil war. He will find the
House very much changed body from
that in which he and his friends from
the South disported themselves of old.
1t was a funny scene in which he was
one OF the actors, when in 1865 or 1859
a bitter debate arose in which himself
and Mr.. Potter of Wisconsin were par
Elephants. The latter will be recalled as
the second in Anssn II. Burlingame's
proposed duel with Brooks or Keith after
the outrage ON Mr.. Summer. At the
time of debate between himself and
Barksdale fight appeared inevitable,
and advances being made to the North.
ener who had the floor, the latter leaned
over his desk to grasp Barksdale, then
threatening him, by the hair, when the
whole storm was dissipated in roars of
laughter as the abundant crop that
crowned the head of the fiery Missis.
sippan came off in the virile grip of the
stalwart Wolverine. 1t was wig. The
bald pate that appeared and Barksdale's
vexation with Potter's surprise set every
one in roars, the combatants as we'll as
the excited spectators. The occurrence
which had threatened scene of blood
shed as we'll as fierce wrangling passed
away in uproarious laughter. We have
really improved in manners since those
days IN. Y. Graphic.

knocked Russell down, when they were

urcu SENATOR'S pIsGUsTE3.

A New York Times editorial says: 1t
is rather 4 matter Of congratulation that
the very rich Senators are reported to be
extremely disgusted with the positions
assigned to them on the Committee OF the
senate. They had no sort of pretcnse Of
experience in public service or special
knowledge to ill more important posi-
tons, bat they seem to have imagined
their riches entitled them to some special
consideration, and it is well that the
imagination should be dispelled. In the
far West it has become so much mac
ter Of course that Scholarships should go
TO the richest men in the State who care
about 1t, that the election to the Senate
has several times had the appearance of
an auction. The Senate has it in its
power to mitigate this ambition, by
showing that it is not plutocracy, and
that n applies cti< sA.ndaras than that
CT bank account in assigning special
duties TO its members. The Senate
showed when it passed the Thurman
Edmund, Railroad bill, that money
could not influence its legislation when
the question was fairly presented.
1t has now made another and equally
neediul showing that money cannot in
iluence the relative standing OF its own
members.

The Horns! Take Them Who Can.

Yazeo City, Miss, Sept. 21.-
Yesterday, as a party of hunters
we're chasing a deer in Panther
Greek swamp q large buck was
inmped. ran for two hours and
was finally killed, when firmly i'm
paled on one of the prongs of his
right horn was found a human
skull supposed to be that of a ne
gro. The prong had entered the
cavity occupied in life by the eye,
and had grown mp around the
bone, showing the skull had not
been put on recently. There are
various conjectures as to how 1t
got there, but the most prevalent
opinion is that the animal was
wounded and brought to bay by
the negro and had killed the lat
ter in the conflict which ensued,
tho prong entering the eye and
piercing the brain. The body OF
the deer showed signs of old
wounds. He was about as large
nc a two. vear.old calf.
The antlsrs with the skull on
them can be seen at Messrs-
Mosely, Gilruth & Co.'S store at
Lake City, ten miles from Yazoo

Washington, Sept. 2l.-The
president of the New Orleans Ma
tisnal Bank. whose mail contain.
ing postal orders or registered
letters has been stopped by the
Postmaster.General, on the charge
that it is receiving the same for
the Louisiana Lottery, called on
Secretary Folger to-day and had
a long conversation with him re-
garding the matter. He desired
to know whether the Treasury
Department would take any steps
to prevent the business of the
bank being thus interfered with,
and was informed by the Sccreta.
ry that ii would not. The Secre-
tary said to him that he believed
the question was one which would
Intimately have to be settled 10y

ury Department to interfere
would only add complications He
suggested that tho bank take tho
question at once to the tribuna
authorized to decide the vexet
question, rather than to appeal t.

The Martin Injunction.
T1'imes-Democrat.1

llWth-DcllutIui.
Tho injunction which Mr.. Eu-
gene Martin, of Vicksburg, has
obtained against the Now Orleans
and Mississippi Valley Railroad
has been very generally discussed
in railroad circles. 1t appears
that Mr.. Martin and others trans
ferred to w. M. johnson & Co.,
of New York, 100000 acres of
land, 30 miles of completed rail-
way and certain valuable franchi-
ses, in consideration OF the fact
that Mr.. Martin and his associates
were TO receive stock end bonds
to the amount of s2,500,0O0. The
contract made with w. M. John
son & Co. was guaranteed by r.
T. Wilson & Co., of New York. 1t
is reported that Mr.. Martin and
his associates named in the petit
ton were, according to the con-
tract, to receive one-quarter of
each issue of the stock, and as
they have not received either por-
ton they believe it is not the in
tention of Johnson & Go. to fulfill
the contract.
1t isSlso stated that at the tine
the soittFBt was made that the
stock 6Mbe roads turned over by
Mr.. MsyGa1 was not worth more
than 80 Gents on the dollar. but
since Messrs. johnson. Wilson
and others have formed combi'
nation with Huntington, the stock
has gone up and is now worth it's
face value. In view of this fact
the railroad company thinks that
Mr.. Martin and his associates will
get more than they bargained for
and in consequence have been
tardy in issuing the stock. The
general impression is that the fact
of the stock increasing in value
will not affect the validity of the
contract held by Martin, and thai
if no compromise of the matter IL
effected the litigation will be live

There was solid sense in old 81
mon Cameron's saying that we
should not know what TO do with
the North Pole if we had it. The
only question now to answer is
how to extricate Lieutenant Gree
ley and his men from danger. If
nothing can be done this winter,
their fate is virtually sealed,
though every effort should be
made for their safety next spring.
But the next man that proposes
an expedition to the North Pole
on any pretext whatever ought to
be kept on ice till the fever is Ia.
ken out of him and then commit
ted to lunatlc asylum for life.
One acre of the poorest land be-
tween the st. Croix and the Rio

and humanity than of all the Arc

than any exploring expedition that
can he sent out to perish in Arc
tic iccAoes. ~. Y. Star.

Seven Pages OF the History Of the
Long Ago.
[Vieksburg Herald.l

lNieksburg Herald.
1t being currently reported on
the streets for many days past,
that suit would be brought against
the Memphis s. Vieksburg railroad
by the city, for the recovery of
the value of 100000 in bonds
with accrued interest, a Herald
reporter set himself to work to
discover the true inwardness of
the matter which gave rise to the
report. He ascertained that these
bonds were delivered on Saturday
May 1lth, 1872, to the treasurer
of the railroad company. The
election authorizing the issuance
of the bonds was held May 2nd
1872.
The Herald reporter with "a
h'eye like h'eaglen has scanned
the records of the city aud finds
that:
The original note of the compa-
ny for 100000;
The certificate of the stock
drawn in favor of the city;
The original ordinance adopted
by the Mayor and Council author
izing the election aud loan;
And seven pages of the ordi-
nance book, from 22S to 235 inclu.
slve, are missing.
1t is supposed that on these
seven pages was entered the orig
inal ordinance as it cannot be
found elsewhere in any part of
the records. J
LII IN lOund tnat every piece oil
paper in connection with the
whele transaction is gone and no
where discoverable IN the city re-
cords.
II is stated as q fact that while
the city has paid the interest reg
ularly on these bonds, to the
amount of $4,000, she has not re-
ceived one single solitary cent eli
ther of principal or interest oI
the original loan made to the com
pany, and that she holds neither
certificates of stock, nor the orig
inal note, and has been gloriously
left with the bag to hold.
