May Warburton, pretty young
woman, who attempted to commit sui
eide in Philadelphia on the 5th by
shooting herself, was recently a resi-
dent of Richmond, the papers Of that
city state. The bullet struck just

Gently sold to a merchant in Lagos, on

The United Veterans Of this city

At a recent meeting Of the Montehore

philanthropist should be remembered in
the members prayers, and the Sscre-
tary, Mr.. Herman Joel, was instructed
to record this action on his minutes.
The Association also resolved to CO
operate in the movement looking to
raising a monument TO Sir Moses Monte
fore in Central Park. New York.
One Of the banks here holding note
Of T. W. Carpenter for about sl25 is
endeayoriug to attach the 5000 left
here for Mr.. Schoolcrait by Carpenter,
and by the former turned over to
Mr.. Downey.
The theory Of the suitors is that it
is not demonstrable that the money
belonged to hr. Downey, or that it
was stolen from anybody. The bank
wants enough of it to pay that note.
There seems to be no truth at all in
the rumor that Carpenter left here
with girl.
Mr.. DOwnsy declines to offer any re-
ward for the apprehension Of Carpen-
ter, but agrees to give any one who
NAV arrest him 40 per cent. Of the
money thereby recovered. Chief-Of-
Police Poe has forwarded this informa-
tion to the Pinkertons. Carpenter was
last seen in Washington city.

New York World

New York World
A party Of fishermen, driven off Nell
son Lake, near Peekskill, the other day
by the storm, saw at distance tum-
ble-down hut. To escape from the rain
they hastened thither, and, supposing it
unoccupied, burst in. To their sur
prise they found its only room occupied
by an old man. He was apparently
nearly ninety years Of age. A great
mass of matted beard and hair hung
about him. lie was crouching over a
smoky wood-fre stirring pot which
contained nothing but shelled corn and
a piece of pork. There was scarcely
any furniture in the room, and in the
corner were a few rags and heap Of
straw, from which his niece only few
DAYS before had been removed TO the
county house 70 die Of consumption.
The old man would talk but little,
and evidently wished his visitors away.
Subsequent inquiry showed that the
man was well known thereabouts as
Ransom Barger, the miser hermit. He
has many thousand dollars worth of
Government bonds, and owns fine
farm in Putnam county. For long
time he has lived in this hut and has
subsistsd on boiled corn and pork.
He was once a justice Of the peace in
Putnam Valley, Putnam county, and
is still proud Of his title OF 4" Squire" I"

SPEECHES..

After the eating came speaking. The
assemblage was called to order by X.
Z. Blankenship, Esq, president Of the
Chamber Of Commerce, who referred
to the arrival of the Carolinians
here twenty-four years ago; to the
hearty reception they then met, and the
gallantry the troops from their State
displayed. lie brought in very hand
somely that since that time their leader,
Lee, had died and now rests at Lexing-
ton, and the body of General Grant is
now about to be committed to the
tomb. Assuring the South Carolinians
of hearty welcome, he introduced his
Honor Mayor W. c. Darlington to say
so with more formality.
Mayor Darlington made a neat speech
euloglstic Of the Caroinians, and greet
ing them very warmly in the name Of
all OUR people.
Colonel Ryan, Of the visitors, made
a very handsome speech in reply.
Further on there were very nice

Strong Testimony.

The September No. of Harper'S Maya
zine contains an article from the pen
ofCHARLEs DUDLEY WARNER, editor
Of the Hartford Courdm Republican,,
which must be delightful reading for
the BLAINEs, the LOGANs, the REDS,
and the HALsTEADs. In giving the
results Of recent journey Of observa-
ton in the South Mr.. WARNER says /:
Louisiana, for instance, was never
in its whole history so consciously loyal
to the United States as it is to-day.
For the past ten years there has been
growing in this country stronger feel
ing Of nationality-a distinct American
historic consciousness-and nowhere
else has it developed so rapidly Of
late as at the South. l am convinced
that this is a genuine development Of
attachment to the Union and of pride
in the nation, and not in any respect
political movement for unworthy
purposes. ! am sorry that it is neces-
sary, for the sake Of any lingering pre-
JUDGES at the North, to say this. But
it is time that sober, thoughtful, patri-
otto people at the North should quit
representing the desire for Office at the
South as device to get into the Gov
eminent saddle and ride again with a
rebel impulse. The South has
entirely put the past behind it, and is
deyotiDg itself to the work of rebuilding
on new foundations"
And what is true Of Louisiana is true
Of all the other southern States. Mr..
WARMERS testimony simply empha-
sizes that of hundreds of other fair
minded northern men who have recently
travelled through the South; but,
coming from such a source, what a
commentary it is upon the hbels Of the
malipnants.
