James W. Wilson entertained an honorable and distinguished guest the other night. At a late hour was heard distinct knocks at the door. The host responded at once. Though dark they recognized each other, not from former acquaintances but by the principal working tools of the architect, expressly the test of the emblem of the ninetieth part of a circle. The cause of the lateness of the hour the guest was seeking admittance to the domicile of such an host. The brother was Colonel Downing, of the Nineteenth Regiment of Indiana Volunteers, or Brigadier General and Inspector General of the Fifteenth Army Corps and an ex-member of the Senate of Illinois. Gen. Downing participated in all the bloody battles under Rosecrans and was with Gen. Thomas at Stone's River, where he was wounded. A shell struck his horse, splitting its head and neck wide open and tearing the flesh from the Colonel's right thigh and foot to the bone, and was grafted with human flesh from a dying comrade by request, and in four months reported for duty. He was with Thomas until Hood's army was destroyed. Uncle Sam remembers him to the amount of 8108% per month for his successful and patriotic service. Col. Downing' was a large land owner near Bloomington, 111., which he has told at a fabulous price. He and son are driving through the country in a carriage and will purchase real estate in Montgomery and Tippecanoe counties. The General is a Scotchman and is 75 years old, and never saw the day he could not eat his dinner, if he could get it. Says he has his first wife and seventeen children. All are graduates of Notre Dame college. Some of them are physicians, some are lawyers, some professors and teachers. One daughter in Chicago is professor of mathematics receiving a salary of 8110 per month. The most of his children prefer agricultural pursuits. Out of nine grown sons he has no knowledge of one of them ever entering a saloon. He says he is of the Old School Presbyterian and has a geneology of his family in his possesbion six hundred years old.

The City of Duluth loft Chicago for Duluth last Tuesday while the Peerless, Traverse City and Jay Gould are bound from Duluth to Chicago. Nothing has beeh heard of any of the boats for 24 hours, but the agent of the company is not apprehensive.

They think the boats will be heard from when telegraphic communication is restored.
