a party of one hundred and twenty-five men surrounded the Camesville jail, battered down

have been greatly excited by tho publication in a local paper of the mode of initiation and the secrets of their order. Charles Winchester, of Ashburnham, Mass., has failed for 300,000. Three national banks held his paper in large amounts, and it is feared will be seriously embarrassed.

Your character as a business man, citizen, father, and husband is good. I have sympathy for your wife and family. You should have considered them before you did wrong.

He is perfectly rational, out tains out iimo about his peculiar afBiction, and setims rather .0 verse to newspaper notoriety.
The valker stated that lie eouui not. p msibly eoafrol himself, and that his physi-,-io,ia bnd informed him that he would walk
until death claimed him. When Suider
bet;:iu his tramp he weighed lbtl pounas; ne now weighs 150 pounds, and has not an
ounce of supemuous nesu. 111s musnuo
oro hard and firm. He has fully recovered from a recent indisposition, when he was thought to be dying. He walks with a quick rtep of uniform length, striking his heols into the soil each tima, the shock being apparently a grateful one to his museles . At times Snider sleeus as he walks, and
for an hour, guided by relative, he swings around the circle, snoring loudly, and upon awnkeaing he runs at a rapid gait for several wiles, to "rest himself," as he says. Snider suffers no pain, and is apparently contented while in motion. During the past fall fair rianagers in this suction of the State were lively bidders for Saider as a curiosity. At Warren ho was oil exhibition in a tent for three days, and proved a great card. ieceiving 200 for his services. He was offered i?2!K) to appear tit tho Marlon fair, and a New York dime museum manager made him a flattering offer for the season, both of which were declined. Dr. Davidson, of Hartford City, who is Snidnr's physician, and has complete charge of the case, said lhat, while l is recovery is Impossible, Snider would pro aably live for many months. "Tho affection is a disease of the sp nal cord." said tho Doctor, "and from the hips down his physical condition is not sthject to government by the brain, the great nerve center." In October Snider was placed behind a plow in a field and made fair progress for a time, but when the plow struck a hidden root and stopped, Snider, instead of extricating it, lot go of the handles, walked around 'the horses, and set off alone on his regular tramp. It is estimated that duriag the two years he has been walking, Suider
has traveled zo.uuu mues. The caso excites widespread interest among tho medical fraternity, many members of which have visited Snider at his home, diagnosing the disease while walk
ing wilh bun, as ho is unaoie kj stop even
for a moment. His case is said oy puysi-
cians to bo unparalleled, ina his powers 01 endurance superhuman.

A morning paper uri- ti tt-.o f.Jlcw.g letter from Minister Manning, a.i'- d . tli -City of Mexico on the 13th inst., and l dressed to Mr. Percy Roberts: Ms Dear Sib Bevoltlug as the subject Is to nio. I ecn not permit my friends and the publio to bo deceived and misled by the slanc-.eroug misrepresentations that have lately tilled many of tho nowspapers . The crusade against me began with accounts of what was said to be a magiiilioent banquet given in my honor, at which were a large number of distinguished men, and where I, in plain terms, was said to have got drank. Tho actual facts, which will, 1 trust, by tin kindness of the New Orleans prut a, bo gen
erally disaomiuatoii, aro as rouows: Mr. Guiraud, a former resident of New OrlAi.na v-tinwim? mv deatre to moot Bomo of the
business mon who were engaged extensively in tlio industrial development of Mexico, invited two onlv two of them to meet mo at break-
f ai t at his house. They were air. nraiuu, ou American long resident of this country, and Mi. Sebastian Camacho, a Mexican. Both of thorn aro largely interested in the railroals nnd in mines ; Mr. Brantff in a cotton foctoiy, and both canitallsta in tho very front rank oi those br tiuv," practical, progressive men who have done so much already to develop their country, and who are looking hopefully forward to tho accomplishment of greator results. The party consisted of thono two geut omcn, or r lio-t, and myself. Tho conversation at tho table was entirely occupied by a coutrasti.ve dost riptton ot tho country as it was and us it is and with details of what was In progrosB now and in ( reparation for tho future I gained a mass of valuable i nd interest ng information fiom them that I could not have obtained from b loks With so staid a party and wit.i such s ubjects for discussion it is hardly reasonable t'uere would bo extraordinary hilarity. Wine was drunk, but in moderation, and at the end of the breakfast I wont to the legation aid remained until 4:30 p. m., transacting tho business of my ofllco. I inclose Mr. BrauuTe. statement about the breakfast. It was telegraphed from hero somfftimo after this why. I don't know-that I hud delirium iroineus, as was ovideut from the noise's proceeding from mv room. Fortunately for me, a gentleman of tho highostcharacterhad his room next to mine. Ho refors to tho Mexican minister at Washington for information as to who he is. His name is Thomas McoManus, and- his stateiue'.l is forwarded. The chief of thediningrooni in my hotol has kindly tendered hin t-tato-meut, which is herewith inclosed. Tl;o hotel n iini-.i-nom. ns in tho States. AIL liquors
are furnished in the dining-room, l io not. wish to mako this letter longer, but as my confinement to my room from an attack of pneumonia has boon circulated with malicious industry as a pretense, I add at this point a sentenco f rom a statement made by my physician. Dr. Parsons: . . . I began attendance on Judge Manning Nov. 25, and found him suffering extreme pain in tho legion of the heart, and, on examining tho lungs, found that the lower lobe of the right lung was affected with pneumonia. His convalescence was protracted owing to tho hoart difficulty, which I attribute to tho altitude of Mexico, and to the inability -to procurola, fire in the Judge's room. Judge Manning had previously consulted with nio fureforonco to tho effect that tho altitude and extreme cold Vfoather had upon him, stating that he had not been comfortable since his arrival. I have uoticod that all Southerners who come here during the -.. inter innnths suffer with colds, catarrhs, etc .
esueciallv whou a northern wind has beon
blowing in Vera Crur, as has been the onao for tho last two or three weeks, -nntfw-i iiii h. lftfl."
Under continuous subjection to a wrotohed
cold, catarrh, and sore throat, I have not, savo on thwA raciLRiivna- ueeu out of mv hotel at
night for seven weeks, aud when symptoms of pneumonia supervened 1 was enjoined to use
the greatest precautions. During that period Mr Marisahai, tho Minister of Foreign Affairs, gave a diplomatic dinner, and I accepted his invitation, though prostrato at tho time, hoping I should bo well enough to attend when tho dinner, which was a week ahead, should come off. Whon my physician learned what I had done ho energetically prohibited my attendance at tho dinner, declaring ho would uot answer for tho consequonccs. Tho tolegraphio correspondents who had concocted the previous dispatches threatened, I am advised, that if I did not go to tho dinner they would make it lively for mo. You know probably by this tiino into what now forms of traduction this livoly invention has projected itself. I do not. Very truly vours. T, C. Massimo. The statement of Mr. Braniff is dated at Mexico, December 9, and is as follows: " I hcroby certify that I was present at tho
