 Archibald Forbes, the famous war cor respondent, once told an amusing story connected with a lecture which he deliv- cred at Westchester, Pa. On arriving at the statoin in that place a negro hack man pressed forward and offered his ser- vices to take the lecturer to the hotel On arriving at his destination Mir Forbes asked what his fare was
 Well, sah," .repleid the negro, with a comprehensive grin, If you'd jess gib me ticket to de lecture, sah, dat's all ask, and I'd be right glad to get it."
 Why, certainly" replied MT. Forbes, feeling that here indeed was an unex- pected tribute; "Ill give you one; and haven't you a missis?"
 "Yes, sah," was the prompt reply. "Is got missis."
 Well, you shall have one for her, too," said the lecturer, who forthwith requested his agent to hand the man the tickets. That evening he looked about the hall for his colored admirer, but saw nothing of him. The next morning, on ordering a hack to go to the station, he discovered that the vehicle was driven by the same man.

 "Yes, sah,' returned the hackman, with one of his broadest smiles, but you see me and my missis don't know much about lectures, sah, and we thought we'd rather hab de cash, so I done sold dem tickets for a dollar, sah!'

ONLY FIVE SAVED.

St. Louis, Jan. 9.--A special from Ameca, Mexico, says that parties who arrived there last night from Ponitas, on the Pacific coast, report that a boat con- taining tive'half famished men had landA ed there last Tuesday. The men claimed to be the only survivors of-a crew of twelve men Of the schooner Tobasco. The story of the men was that the schooner was loaded with lumber and bound from Mazatlan to Acapulco. She was struck by heavy sea and foundered near Ban deras Bay. The other seven men of the crew went down with the schooner be- fore another boat could be lowered. There were no passengers on board.

Arrives in London On His Mission in the Interest of Silver.
 London, Jan. 9.--United States Senator E. o. Wolcott, of Colorado, who comes to Europe to sound European feeling on the silver question, arrived in London today, having sailed from New York on board the steamer Campania last Saturday. MT. Wolcott was seen this afternoon by a representative of the Southern Associated Press, to whom he said that he had had an exceedingly rough passage and con- sequently was not feeling well. Mean while. he said, he preferred not to speak on the silver question. The senator learned of the death of Gen. Francis A. Walker, which occurred in Boston on Tuesday, immedia tely upon his arrival here, and expressed himself as being greatly grieved thereat. In his death MT. Wolcott said the whole country had suf- feredsa serious loss, and the silver cause had been deprived of one of its strongest and most logical advocates.
