friends I often tee the familiar pftg*® the Exf&ies, and I can af»ure you it«» read with pleasure. I don't stop at mere locals, but read advertisement*. Tott see it looks so much like old times to see the names of those we hare known for years, and know they are still enterprising enough to advertise in the Ex

PHESS. Chicago has the same push and go ahead as ever. This year we a.e having a large number of splendid business bouses put up, besides hundreds of marble dwelling?- io all parts of the city. They would grace any city in the world. Other improvements of every kind, can be seen everywhere.

Saturday wo were treated to a first class sensation at the board of trade. Some of the heaviest dealers were arrested for gambling, and as some of your readers are somewhat acquainted, it may be of interest to know who tbey are, and what are the ground of the charges. One Goodrich, who it is supposed has been victimized, swore out arrests for the following parties Messrs. Bay Hutchin* son, Chas. B. Pope, Howard Prieshly, D. 0. Scranton, Wm. J. Shirk, J. J. Richardson, A. Eichbold, C. B, Goodyear, EgotK. Bruce, & Geo. W. Howe, all of whom were arrested, and waiving examination gave bail each in the sum of three thousand dollars to appear at the September term.

It is understood that some fifty war« rants are out for other parties belonging to the band, among which are mentioned E. Walbridge, G. M. Hard, W. H. Lunt C. W.|Boynton, Geo. W. ChampTIh and others.

The scene of the arrest, it is said, could not possibly be described by any one so as to convey scarcely an idea of the incredulous consternation with which the flrd warrant was looked upon by Mr. H. "Bo my eyes deceive met" he said as ho turned upon the officer a withering look of contempt. "Do you, a minion of the law, presume to arrest the amount of money that I represent I" ''That's my business here," wus the officer's reply.

After finding that all was in real ear" nest and that other warrants were in the care of the officers, all were so excited ao nearly to rob the officer of his paper to Bee who were wanted. After having served the warrants all wore taken before the court and gave bail as above.

The clause under which they were arrestee reads thus SEC. 17- All contracts lor the salo of grain for future delivery, cxcept in cases where the seller is owner, or agent of owner, of euch grain at the time of making the contract, and in actual possession thereof, are hereby declared void and gambling contracts, and ull money paid in the settlement differences on any Buch contract may be recovered back in the same rnannor as other money lost in gambling.

SEC. 18. All parties to any such gambling contract shall be deemed guilty of misdemeanor, and upon conviction thereof shall be fined one thousand dollars and imprisoned not exceeding one year in the county jail.

One-half ths fine goes to the informer, And he is a competent witness. So you see it is a pretty serious charge, and the general opinion is that every one can be convicted.

Yesterday We were greeted with the sad news that our Post Master, Col. R, A. Gilmore had been drownd while out on the Lake alone-in a boat. He leaves an interesting family aud many friends to mourn his untimely death. He was last seen Friday about 10} o'clock, P. u., and in his boat, near the mouth of the harbor. Since, the wreck of the boat has been picked up, but no tidings of the owner.

The "Black Crook" still crooks as usual, and is as well patronised as at first. Quere, why is it that all who abuso it, go to see it the first opportunity.

We are now enjoying an abundance of fine peaches, ranging in price from $1,25 per buBhel to $3. The daily receipts are from sixteen to twenty-three car loads, or five thousand to seven thousand buBhel We will begin to receive the crop from St. Joseph, Michigan, in eight or ten days. Those received now are from Southern Ills. Other fruits of many kinds are abundant and cheap.

Milk Baths-Extraordinary Revelations. [Brooklyn correspondence of ths New Tort New*

Near the outskirts of the city of Brooklyn lived a man and wife who keep a large number of cows the men serving the milk to his customers evory morning It is not swill-milk, for tbey have large pasture grounds, and in the winter the cows are fed on dry feed. They have earned a good reputation as dealers in pure milk, and the man has more customers than he cau supply. The wife is a fine-looking woman, about twenty-fivo years of age, though she looks to be much younger, and she has the finest complexion that it was ever my fortune to see. They have living with them a young girl, who is good-looking, and who has the same remarkable clearness of complexion as the mistress. I should say that she is more of a companion than sorvant, eating her meals with them, and in every respect is treated as one of the family Both of the?e women have fine figures, and, as I before stated, remarkably transparent complexions. Tbe neighbors have it that thev owe it to tbe large quantity of pure milk they drink. Thoy are the envy of all ladies fur miles around. Being a frequent visitor *t the house, I had often observed the husband, when ihe miik was brought in, taking soveral paiisful up •ta.re, when his wife would disappear for about an hour, and the «uilk bo brought down stairs and put in the cans ready for wrving to customers in the morning I thought nothing more of the matter fur. ther than supposing that there was a little innocent doctoring going on.

One Sunday evening I called it was just before duik, and I knocked as usual at the door, but no one came so I strolled into the garden, and as passed the

kitcfth door I tried the l«|Uh. To my surprue the door opened. -This is strange, thought I -they have «itber fallen aeleep, Or cone out and forgot to fasten the door I entered, but'there was no one in the kitchen. From there I passed to the dining-room aid -parlor,-but still there was no one to be seen. So I passed into -•he halt-. -The front door WAS locked on "tEe Inside. Sow, as I had never known them to be asleep at that time of day, I thought it very strange. I sat down in the hall, and took up a paper which was there, and my eye soon fell upon a^ara* graph giving an ftcooont of *ia horrible murder which bad been committed upon a whole family. Good heaven*, thought

I, what if they should all De up stairs murdered in their b&ds. So up -stairs I rushed, opened the first door that came to hand, and Lehfeld, ye gods I such a sight as I never before witnessed. As I opened tbe door, I beheld tbe young woman before spoken of io a bath tub fast asleep, her head being supported by a strap. She was in a bath of milk 1 Here was the mj stery of the fine complevion of mistress and maid, as a!so of the carrying up and down stairs of the miik. They weie in the habit of taking a daily bath of miik, fresh from the cow, and, in order aot to waste it, selling the same milk to their customers. I closed tbe door quietly, and made my exit as I entered.

JEFF DAVTS*IN CANADA.

His Squabbles with His Neigh bora—He Attacks a Spunky Scotch Woman and is Driven Off in Confusion-

[Hontrral Correspondence Chicago Bvpubl!canj. Jeff Davis and his family lire here, on Mountain street, wi(h hia mother-in-law, Mrs. Howell. Tbey formerly lived in a plain, unpretentious bouse on the sane street, but they recently rented tbe fine mansion of Rev. Dr. Wilkes. Last winter, before the release of Jeff Davis, the Howells were considered rather hart' up, except when Mr?. Jeff came there, when thuy appeared to have plenty. It is said that they used to be reducd to such straits that they had to borrow woed and other fuel, weeks at a time, from their next door neighbor, who, while he detested Jeff. Davis and all his crew, could not see his children suffer, and therefore be loaned them all tbey wanted.

But this neighbor had his patience rather severely tried one day when he was informed that the junior members of Jeff's family had been chastised for associating with his children. They were ordered not again to bo seen playing with any such tash of children." This was rather mortifying to Jeffs neighbor, a very respectable family indeed, and whose children are. to be the associates

Jeff. Davis—I desire to seo the lady of the house. Scotch Lady—I'm the leddy o' this houso. What may I ca' you, if you'll excase me for Bpeerin'?

Jeff. Davis—(Hesitatingly)—I am President Davis. Sc6tch Lady—Ou'ij so you're Jeff. Davis, are you? You're a neebor o' ours, are'nt you?

Jeff. Davis—I am. Scotch Lady—(Rathersnapishly)—And what may be your bisness wi' me?

Jeff. Davis—I came to inform you that one of your servants abused my son Jeff, in a most shameful manner.

Scotch Lady—(Rising to the dignity which attaches to a true matron^—Dinna deceivo yersel', Mr. Jeff. Davis it was nane o' my servants that gave tbe callant a lickin'. I did it mysel', and what mair, if ever I find him in our garden again, I'll gi'ehim adoubledose.

Jeff. Davis—This is outrageous conduct to both my family and mjsolf. I will appeal to the law sad will have you ar« rested.

Scotch Lady—(Getting her mad up) Arrested? Jist try that. I

supposo ye

think you're in the Confederacy and still President ot it? You'd put me in prison, would ye? How did ya like it yarsel' it's no sa Ian since ye got out. Weel, you're a pretty man to talk of arresting ony body—jist after ys escaped the halte wi* the skin o' ycr teeth.

At this juncture Jeff. Davis beat a hasty retreat, leaving our Scotch lady still talking, and when the latter saw he was leaving, she slammed the door after him.

JEFF. DAVIS' STANDING AND POSITION. Notwithstanding Jefferson Davis has a large number of admirers among the English and same of the rich Canadians here, ha is not generally like-.! by the people. He very seldom walks out, and when he does it is in the cool of the evening. Hia lank, lean body, shriveieJ face, prominent mouth, the grin which constantly envelopes his countenance, his sunken eyes, and hawk-like expression, are not calculated to make the people reverence or respect him.

But abovo and beyond all this, the memory of Anderson vilie still ad tie re.-, him, to blast ani wither his reputation wherever he goes. Go where he likes, he a doomed man—infinite')- more so thau Aaron Burr or Benedict Arnold. Educated at tbe expense of his country, he embraced the first opportunity to bead a rebellion to destroy it. It is not strange, therefore, that the report should be correctlhat he will shortly leave here to take up his residence somewhere in the State of Georgia. ROBERTUS.

DAVIS AND A SCOTCH LADY.

But, as I stated, Jeff Davis and his family, with the Hotels,now reside in an elegit house on tbe same street and the other evening at the Ottawa Hou-e I heard a gcod story with regard to him.— It appears that the next door neighbor is worthy Canadian merchant, who has a Scotch wife of ^considerable pluck and spirit, and both take a great deal of pride ia a beautiful garden which is attached to their house. Since Jeff and his family caroo to reside nest door to them, the young members of Jeff's family have partially destroyed this garden, by tearing down beautiful trees, trampling over flower beds, &c., much to the grief and annoyance of all the family. About two weeks ago, however, Mrs took the law into her own hands. The cireom stances areas follows: Jeff Davis, jr., was seen to climb the fence and get into the garden, and was finally engaged in picking strawberries and stuffing himself with inem, when our Scotch lady imme diately proceeded to the garden, picaed up a birch wand, and gave young Jeff a sound thrashing—letting him go with the admonition that the dose would be repeated every time he was found there uuinvited. Of course the youth went home bellowing from the application of birch to his hips, and the whole family of the "President" was in arms, and an immediate demand was made by the female portion of the family that Jeff himself proceeded to the neighbor's house to demand satisfaction. He accordingly procecdsd, rang the door bell, which was opened by the lady herself, after which the following colloquy took place.

A correspondent of, the St. Paul Press writes from Helena, Montana Territory, under date of July 18th:

Business of all kinds is dull out here thisseassn. Merchants, miners and laborers are all complaining of dull times. Pilgrims from the States, are in most cases, very much disappointed with the country out here, as- they in most cases derived their knowledge of Montana from some lucky miner who had made a strike and returned, or from a certain paper published in Helena, which never fails to puff up the country and the mines, even after the latter have ceased to pay wages.

A number of prominent gentlemen from Indiana arrived here this season, by the way of the Missouri river, Some of them invested a largo amount of money in quartz property while back there last winter, but I am sorry to say they find they were badly deceived, as after the most dilligeut search on their patts they have been unable to find the lodes out of which the rich specimens came tbey were shown in Lafayette. Of course, these parties were not supposed to know that the nuggets shown to them came out of gulch mine3 instead of quartz lodes, not but what there are innumerable quartz lodes in Montana, rich in gold, silver, copper and other preoious metals, which only needs capital to develop. But parties desiring to invest in such property would find it to their interest to come here and examine for themselves. They will find such a course to pay in the long run.

Tbe great event of the week has been the meeting of tho Democratic Convention, which took place on the 15th, and adjourned late at night on the 16th. Tbe candidates for Congress were eight in number, each of whom had their friends, who made a determined fight to elect their man, but the irrepressible Jim Cav anaugh came out victorious, after they hud ballotted some forty times. The op ponents of Mr. Cavanaugh, which comprised the left wing of Gen. Price's army, from Missouri, tried hard to defeat him, as tbey did not consider Jim a staunch enough rebel to suit them, nor did they like bis action in bolting from the Democratic Convention in Colorado. It is not because tbe Democrats like Cayanaugh's past political record that they nominated him for Delegate to Congress, but because they know he is tho only man in the Democratic party that could run against the Republican nominee, with the ghost of a chance of being elected. The Republican party in Montana is well organized, string and determined, and, we all hope, able to eitct our Delegate to Congress this tall, as well as many county officers throughout the Territory.

The Republicans have not yet held their Convention, but the choice of the party seems to be Col. W. Saunders, an abfe lawyer and eloquent speaker, who resides in Virginia City. With such a man in Congress, Montanians will not have to complain, as they have been doing for the last few years, that they did not know whether they had a Delegate in Congress or not, as they never heard of him at the Capital

A Novel Confidence Operation. [From to Newport K. I. Mercury.] Among the wounded at tho Lovell Hospittu was man who called himself Thomas H. Bsnton Taylor, a soldier belonging to an Indiana regiment, who was shot through the hand during the rebel lion. At tho hospital he received the kindest care of a young lady belonging to tbi3 city, who, as heexpressed to us, saved his life. The constant companionship of this soldier and the lady finally led to their being united in marriage, and tbey came to this city to live, but after a short interval he represented that he could better secure a living if he knew the rules of book-keeping, and he wished to go to Poughkeepsie to study.

Having no money himself, he securod about one hundred dollars from his wife and went his way. While he was there it became known that he was not a true husband, but probably a bigamist. Aftor awhile he came back, flush with money, and was employed as book-keeper by one of our merchants at a very small salary, and continued in this employ for about one ear, when he was employed by an other. He had been in his new employ bat a few months, when one day he received a telegram which read as follows: "SALEM, INDIANA.—T. H. B. Taylor.— Your uncle died yesterday, leaving you $40,000. Come on and get the money.'j

The leport of his luck immediately spread, and ho commenced his confidence operations at once by borrowing $100, as he allegod, for the purpose of going to Indiana. He stayed but a short time away, and returned with some gold pieces which he showed to his Iriends, alleging that his uncle loft $500 in gold which bad been divided between the th/eo heirs. Soon after a package came by express, marked with his name and denoting that it con tained $3,000. About this time two strauge men wore seen with him, who stopped but one day and dined at his houso. He soon hired a large houso and continued his confidence game by scuring costly pictures and other articles to be placed in the house, and as ho was now reported rich, had no trouble in procuring watches, jewelry, nice clothes, dry goods, &c., until his credit had secured him goods to the value of over $4,500. Hi represented that he wished these articles by a certain time, as ho was going to Indiana to get $20,000, and would return on Monday last and pay for them. Tne day before be started on his journey, he sold all the furniture in the houso where he hao been |nving for $200 cash. He then packed ali tbe «rtides that he had received into a number of trunks, and left the city. He did not return as promised, and the following day those who hud been made bis .victims found to their sorrow, that he was a black-hearted villain. His wife, who is an euiimabe lady, was on a visit to somo friends in Providence during the whole of his last operations, and first knew of his desertion by the receipt of a letter stating that when it reached her he would be on his way to Europe.— it is now some ten days since he left the city with the articles secured, and no tiaiugs have been received of his whereabouts.
