the bones Of Isaac Hayne, who

A SINGULAR STORY.

A SINGULAR STORY.
The Washington correspondent
of Mr.. Lippard's paper, the
Quaker City" communicates
the following curious account of
a recent remarkable dream Of
Mr.. Calhoun's. We have not
much faith in supernatural APP
pearances, or in Washington
correspondents, but if any thing
could lead the ghost Of the
"FATHER or HIS COUNTRY" to re-
visit the realms beneath the
moon, it would be the thought
that his beloved country was in
danger Of DsUNIoN, which is but
another name for Civil WAR-
We give the story for what it is
worth;
Washington, D. C., Jan. ~, 80.
Mr., EDIroR-The other morn
ing, at the breakfast table, our
friend, the Hon. John c. Cal
houn, seemed very much troubled
and out of spirits. You know
he is altogether a venerable man,
with a hard, stern, Scotch Irish
face, softened in ITS expression
around the mouth by a sort Of
sad smile, which wins the heart,
Of all who converse with him
His hair is snow-white. He il
tall, thin, and angular, He re-
minds you very much Of Ole
Hickory. That he is honest, nc
one doubts; he has sacrificed tC
his Fatalism the brightest hope,
of political adgancement-ha'

Mr.. EDiroR,--
We would inform
our friends and fellow citizens,
that q Council Of Heslth was
formed in this city, about sixteen
months ago, by and with the ad'
vice Of the authorities Of the
Church, which is attended once
in two weeks, at the house OF
DR.. w. Richards.
The principles on which We
shall act, we believe to be beneV'
olent. We intend to allow our
selfshness TO govern us no fur
Their than we deem necessary TO
enable us to accomplish thegreat'
est good. We greatly desire the
means Of using our time and tai
ents to the best advantage, fur.
ther than this, we are not anr-
ious. Though We may fail to
convince some Of the superiority
Of the botanic practice, we feel
confident that our eYertlons, I'M
80
der this head, will shake the faith
Of many in the propnety OF
swallowing, as they have long
done, with implicit confidence,
the most deleterous drugs, under
the sole authority and responsi-
bility Of technicalities. We in'
tend to lay before the Council,
from time TO time, such med
icinal plants as shall come to our
knowledge, for their approval or
refusal, as we shall find in this
vicinity; believing in the good
ness Of the Creator, that he has
placed, in most LANDS, medicinal
plants for the cure Of all diseases
incident TO that climate, and
especially 80 in relation to that

TO SETTLE STRIKE.

Grand Lodge Officer J. ]. Conley. of
the International Association of Ma
chinists. is at Yoakun trying to bring
about a settlement of the strike which
| the machinists of the S. A. & A. p.
railroad at that place have been out
| for some time. Mr.. Conley lives in
Washington and has come a long way
in the interest of the machinists. He
| conferred with NJ. d. Monserrate. the
vice president and general manager
at San Antonio and then went to Yoa-
| KUN wher he expects to effect a salts
factory settlement of the difficulty.
BOTH WANTED HER
A young contryman living near Par
is went to town and bought a license
to marry a neighbor girl. He had gone
but a few minutes when in came an
other young man of the neighborhood
and asked for a license to wed the
same young lady. The clerk told him
that he had just issued a license for the
other fellow to marry the girl and he
would have to go and get him another.
At first he insisted on the issuance of
the license anyhow, but finally gave it
up and walked disconsolately out with
out it, remarking that he guessed he
would study about it.
STRUCK A SNAP.
The store house of Farmer & Mitch
ell. at Lawrence. Kaufman county. was
entered by burglars Saturday morning
and robbed of over $3.50 which they
fouDu in an unlocked safe. Mr.
Mitchell says it was the second time in
his business career that he forgot to
lock his safe. j. l.. Carroll. a farmer
of near Lawrence. had just deposited
$3.50 in the safe and it was part of the
amount stolen. He kept his money
deposited in a bank at Terrell. Being
there Thursday and anticipating the
need of some money the first of the
week. he drew the money to save an
extra trip to Terrell. Having no place
else to deposit it in Lawrence he left
in with the merchants with the above
results. The robbers are being search
ed for.

in store for them. She preached that
the world would soon come to an end
and the Indians will take up their bows
and arrows in happy hunting ground
far from the devil and the Apaches.
AS a result OF her work one Indian
woman is a raving maniac and others
ar on the verge of the same state of
mind. An Indian man called Jim
Blaine left the settlement and went
into town for assistance He said that

crazy and he wanted help to transfer
her to other fields. The officials have

 O'Brien went to Robinson and made lorg palaver about going out alter cattle which he wanted tn bring in over the rall- way cutoff from Lake Bennett, and want cd permission to drive his sled out over the grade. As Robinson said afterwards, the man talked too mu:h. SO he got up and said. "l will look at your sled. While walking over to the place he was turning the matter over ln his min1, and arriving at the sled owned by O'Brien he looked at it, told him abruptly that he could not drive It over the grade. turned and left sled and outfit to go by the roundabout Fifty Mile river route.
 When within a few miles Of TagiSh post O'erien's horse broke through the Ice, and was rescued with dificultv with the assistance of some parties who were on the trail, and who noted that the owner of the horse seemed in a biz hurry about something. Shortly after the miShap O'Brlen met the police patrol from ragiSh, and inquired from them where the police post was and where he should report, etc. They gave him directions and went on. On their return that evening they lelmet at the post that no man answering O'Brien's description had reported there. and such a man was wanted.
 The police are always keeping note of everyone who passes out, and this action on his part aroused their suspicious. Three of them having an idea that the mln had purpoSely made a de,Our, went up the river a couple of miles Co an Indian camp, where they soon became convinced that their man was.
 Approaching one of the tents a police man called out tO the occupant to light a candle. This the Slulw attempted to do bu, ;he light vls blown out. A second attempt ended In the same way. Then one oi the policemen called out warning to the man not to do that again. When the candle was burning. the policeman carefully opened the tent, and seeing a form wrapped 10 blankets, made a dive tor it and soon had O'Brien secured.
 Under hts robe they found his WineheS- ter rife. A subsequent examination Of this showed the bore of the barrel to be stuffed with bunk notes.
 When the police had their man secured at the post they made careful examlna- ton of his outfit. Between the runners of his sled and the steel Shoeing underneath. they found s2o bank notes. Between the knee seats they found other bills, and in divers other places.
