The St. Louis Republican contains the
following of interest to our river men par
| ticularly:
| Mr.. p. 2. Manion, the steamboat ma
chinist, had curious windfall yesterday,
and it is to be hoped none of his friends
| will fail to call on him to-day, as he
will doubtless open a few bottles of cham
payne to celebrate the event. About a
year ago DR.. Manion bought from Huse.
Loomis q Co., the old steamboat Redwing,
which for number of years did duty for
the Northern line on the upper river. He
sent it down to the docks. and not long
siuce the work of dismatling her and con-
verting her into an immense barge was
entered upon. Yesterday morning two
workmen were engaged in ripping off the
inner sheeting or planks of the hull, down
in the hold, when, on pulling away one of
the lower planks, they heard the ring of
loose metal. They felt around in the dark
space between the inner and outer shells
of The bold, and drew out number of
silver coins. This excited their cupidity
and curiosity. and soon another plank was
torn off aud light brought. to bear. They
discovered an old cloth or sack, which was
por,iy aud very heavy, and it took but
moment to discover that it was
filed with silver or gold. 1t was
taken out, and soon the news spread
all over the docks that Capt. Kids
long hidden treasure had been found and
slowed away in the old Red Wing
Crowds aocked to the ancient hull and
Toasted their eyes on the ducats. but
guard was placed over the package and
the curiosity of the visitors was not graft
fed. Word was sent to Mr.. Manion, who
was so busily engaged that he could not
go down to see what the old wreck had
brought forth. He will visit the docks
this morning when the package will be
opened up and the money counted. He
will then hire conveyance and bring the
rich burden up 10 the bank where he makes
his deposits, after which there will be re
eeption at his place of business. How the
money got into its strange depository is a
great mystery, and there is probably some
ugly story connected with 1t. Possibly it
is the spois of some big robbery, placed
there for safe keeping by the thief whose
career was cut short before he could find
an opportunity to return and remove it,
More likely 1t is the reserve fund of some
of the heavy gamblers who used to run
the river. At all events, it belongs to Mr.
Manion ROW. no matter under what cir
it was placed there. He bought
The boat and all that was in her, and he |
proposes to fasten on to everything that is |

An OLD CITIZEN IN JAIL.

This morning at the Rock Island House,
conversation turned toward the Virgins
prediction for to-day and to the fact that
the prognosticator. himself had gone to
Halifax in order the better to take notes
of the impending storm. do YOU know -
spoke up Uncle Isaac Negus, that I was
in Jail once in Montreal?" There was a
universal chorus in the negative, whereup-
an he repeated his assertion An ARGUS
reporter whose curiosity was aroused
ventured To inquire into the circumstances
of the arrest and imprisonment of one of
our best know pioneer citizens, to which
Uncle Negus made reply substantially
thus: During the Patriot war of 1878
was in Canada engaging men to work on
the Illinois and Michigan canal l had
got good many and had them
quartered in q conveniently located
house. At that time the '-Canucks" sus-
pected pretty much everybody from the
states of having hand in the insurrec-
ton, and one iey as / was going along the
street l was arrested. While on the way
to jail with the officer Canadian struck
me with his cane, drawing the blood like
fun, saying as he did so, what in h are
you doing here, anyway" When got to
jail found that the jailer was from. the
states. and he treated me first rate, letting
me do pretty much as I wanted to. After
I'd been in Jail two days horse buyer
named Thompson. from the states, told the
authorities that he knew that man. mean
ing me, and that if they knew when they
were well off they'd let me go. l guess
that scared them little, because they
released me, but said / must leave the men
there that / had engaged to work for me-
So you see that I've been in jail in Mon
treal just as / said"
