At best The case waa a bad one. How to deal With Bin as a ghost they couldn't but feel ' W as an awfal thing. Till a certain Fray Humbly offered to show the way. And the way waa this: Did I say liefere That the Fray was a stranger? No fceuor, strange! Very strange! 1 should have said That the very week that tho lton lay dead, He came among us! Bread be broke Silent ; nor ever to one he fpoke. o he had vowed it. De low his brows Hi face waa hidden. There are such vow. Strange, are they not? Yoadonotuse Bona: A bad habit !

The Louisville Courier-Journal of the 13th eives the following additional particulars in regard to tbe recent prison outbreak at Jef f ersoBville : Some interesting developments were brought to light in the attempted prison escape Monday afternoon at Jetfersonville. which throws considerable light upon the subject. It is now evident that' it was not the original plan of. the four convicts to Attempt to run the dangerous gauntlet which they did for their liberty. On the contrary. there was a conspiracy among the convicts evidently with some outside parties, by which at least forty, and perhaps more were to - make an effort to escape. Yesterday morning one of the prison guards discovered the trick, which, it must be allowed, was as ingenious as it was bold. A place had been cut through the outer wall, which is constructed of wood, large enough to allow the form of a man to pass through with ease. This hole had been cut by parties from the outside, and the piece taken out of the place had been so neatly htied in that it was dim cult to detect without baring tbe attention called to it. Above the bole was a character greatly resembling the characters that have been supposed to be used by the Kuklux Klan. William Kennedy, the convict who Kuiea tne guara uaamoeriam, wor&ea in the foundry, near the place where tbe hole was cut in the wall. . lie has had a chest in the shop where he works, and upon an ex amination of . THE CONTENTS OF THE CHEST .yesterday morning a letter was found, and also a suit or citizen's clothes. The follow inzisacopy of the letter: . MAY 11,1874. Billt: When we started last night to . fulfill our mission, we had everything that was required to go ahead with; but wbm we looked over the thing to make snre that we had everything all right, to our ill luck a pair of pants and a saw was lost, and it was sny intention to look for a saw inside tbe walls, and did get one, hut It was of no bene fit, and as it was very near daylight, and as I hurt myself in getting over the wall, we had to give" it up for that time, but you will find everything all right; you will find the hole ready for you this morning; you will find it by this mark (X here appeared an X, with dots around it In black, right under the tower, or as you go out to the setting up shop. We will also leave tbe same kind of a mark on your box with chalk : when you come out be sure and come over the bridge; for we will be looking tor you. When you come over the bdge. you need not stop to pay your toll until you get on tbe Kentuckyside, and that is where you will find us waiting for yon. If you are not there by seven o'clock we will hsve to leave you for good, as we cannot do anything more for you. The mark (here the X with the dots above and below it) you see right over the hole. Yocr Fjuxndh. Oc the top of the cbest was the same kind of a character which had been made on the prison wall. From certain information in the possession of the prison officials, which can not at present be made public, there is but little doubt that, had the plot of escape s planned been carried out, a number of the convicts would have escaped, and matters been much worse than they now are. The four convicts who made tbe strike for their liberty, on Monday afternoon, acted rashly and hastily, and it was not down in the pro 5 ram for them to - make the move they id. They happened to be near the guard 297TTrs nff?ilweTf that thero were

many risks to incur tcsuceeesf oily get away,

thought that tne opportunity wmcn presen ted Iteeir was a good one, ana they rasmy 1 resolved to accept It, Tbey anticipated that TAH 6ÜDDKJ Ar BOLD ATTACK U poo -their keepers would so surprise and throw thm,into confusion that they, could get clear of the prison grounds before tbe Driaon officials could recover from the triebt and confusion consequent to the bold charge. Thus reasoning, they concluded to take the desperate chances which they failed to succeed in carrying out. They were not expect ing the resistance and not pursuit wnicn so immediately followed. . F rom the warning that Colonel Shuler received, and from other facta in connection with the matter, it -was thought that yesterday morning waa the time set for the escape to be made. The convict Applegate, who made such a desper ate effort to kill Colonel Shuler, was the ringleader In tbe conspiracy, and is by odds the moat noted and dangerous desperado in the prison. He was morose and sullen all day yesterday, and appeared indifferent as to what they would do with him. lie says be regrets he did not kill Colonel Shuler,and threatens to do it yet if an opportunity of fers. . The convict Kennedy, who so deliber ately shot down the guard, was lying; in a critical condition . all day yesterday, and his wounds may prove fatal. In the desperate Land-to-hand fight, which ensued just preceding the hnai caoture of tbe rjartv. Kennedy waa struck over the head several times with the butt end of a large navy revolver In the hands or Michael Haler, one of the prison guards Tbe lniurles inflicted are very severe, and it is said that the skull is rracturea . me convict Stanley wa not so badly injured as at first supposed, and will recover, urown, the trusty convict, who was shot by , Appletrate lor attemDtinsr to intercept him in his flicht, waa better yesterday, but not entirely out of danger. TBE BBAVKRT OF THK OFFICERS The coolness and bravery of Qolonel Shuler and the guards in pursuit are highly mmrdimented on all sides. While Applecrate had his wearjon Dointed directly at the bead and breast of Colonel Shuler, and was firing away in rapid succession, that gentle man kept advancing, and finally felled Aprdesrate to the Ground with a brick. As Ap rdegate rose. Colonel Shuler jumped on him and the two men clenched and a desperate struggle ensued. Colonel Shuler conquered Applepate at last by getting m some repeated heavy blows on the head with the brick which he held in his hand. How the convicts obtained their weapons , is still shrouded in mystery. The theory, however, that they were smuggled in Dy parties wno came to the prison, during the late religious excitement there, under the pretext of talkins to tbe convicts in regard to their spirit ual welfare, is believed by many to be correct, and CoL Shuler is somewhat inclined to the same opinion. Two convicts, however, who got out of the prison a few weeks slnoo might have had a hand in furnishing the weapons to their friends . inside. . The coroner's Jury yesterday morning returned a verdict that Chamberlain came to his death from gunshot wounds inflicted by Kennedy. Kennedy will now be turned over to the civil anthoritles and tried for murder. That he will hang is considered a foregone conclusion. The inquest over the remains of Port resulted in a verdict of death from gunshot wounds by unknown parties. It is generally believed, however, that Port was shot and killed by a man named Jones, who was one of the pursuing party. ANECDOTE OF AGASSIZ. TnE OR AY SNAKE IN THE SCHOOL ROOM THE ORK AT TEACHER'S REMARK AND ITS INFLUENCE. Miss Annie K. Brack ett, of New York, contributes tbe following characteristic anecdote of Professor Agassiz: Now that all who have ever known or seen Agassiz are remembering hi.ii, it may not be uninteresting to recall a little incident which happened nearly twenty years ago in one of the Massachusetts normal schools. That honored old commonwealth never did a wier or a more generous thing than when she engaged tbe two men, Agassiz and Guyot, to lecture in her normal schools to tbe young men and womea who were to be, not only her own future teachers, but also the teachers in many other states. I was then a pupil at tbe oldest of them the school in Framingham. Thither was wont to come Guyot, and, so journing among us for a week or ten days, talk to us oi eartn and man. or genesis and the creation, so simply, so kindly, that we forgot the distance between us. And thither came also Agassiz, with his frank, noble, kindly face, to speak to us of the animal kingdom. It was during one of these stays that tbe incident to which I refer occurred. During the noon intermission one of tbe Eirls had picked up and brought with her to er desk one of the little gray snakes so common in Massachusetts country fields, and while a group of girls were standing by, she suddenly produced it. There was at once a start, and an exclamation of disgust and loathing, and the expected sensation kad beon quite satisfactorily produced. Agnasiz, who was standing on the platform talking with tbe principal and waiting for the school to be called to order. instantly came rapidly down the aisle to tbe excited and disgusted group, and, on seeing I the cause of the commotion, at once took I little frightened creature gentlv, almost 1 c the ten derly, into his strong hand, and as tbe snake twisted itself around his ringers and wrist. he sal J, quietly, as if it were a friend, "Oh! it is the Coluber DeKayl, so named from Dr. DeKay, who first characterized it." The words were nothing, but the gesture and manner were indescribable, at once so protective and so reverential that tbey, as well as the whole scene, have always stood out clear in my memory with tbe vividness of one of Chaucer's pictures. It was as if the voice, instead of the simple remark of recognition which it actually uttered, had said "He prayeth well who loveth well Both man and bird and beast: -lie prayeth beet who loveth best All thing, both great and small, For the dear Hod who loveth us, He made and loveth all." I'cannot answer for the impression on the others, but I know that to one, at least, that gestnrejand action, so characteristic of the man, struck the key-noto of her teaching for many years afterwards, in many different place, and to thousands of pupils, and tbe grateful remembrance of it is to me now like a floral offering which I lay upon his distant honored grave. A servant girl in Clinton county, New York, lately attempted to poison a family by cutting off the brimstone ends from sixty-nine lucifer matches, and placing theia in tbe bottom of the teapot preparatory to getting breaklast. None of tbe family artDK tne tea except Mrs. onepnera, ana she was saved by timely remedies. Mr. Thomas W. Field, the superintendent of public instruction in Brooklyn, having re ported that tbe association of sexes In the public schools of that city was productive of immorality, sixteen principals of schools now send In a denial ot this statement. A special committee has been appointed to inquire into the facta. In some parts of Europe the losses of life and property during tbe past -year have been very great. Especially has Italy suffered from tbe general overflow of its rivers, tbe loss occasioned in tbe autumn of 1873 being estimated at 5,000,000.

'XLIIl CONGRESS.-

V IfThe Senate then resumed the consideration of the Geneva award bill, the pending ques Hon being on the amendment or Mr. Thnrman, striking out the clause excluding me claim of nsurance companies. v Mr. Achurs tmM that the dealtnsr of this gov ernment with tbe money derived from tire Ge neva tribunal should be marked by irlct fairness, and every effort should be made to carry out the spirit of that tribunal. Th situation aud polier of the UntitHl states was rueU hat it mixnt be expected that this country would remain neutral on the great conflict of Uie world, and it would be to our interest to earry- out - the1 pirit of that tribunal and earefully guard against any vague notion of national lowiesor national indemnity If such a precedent shon.d be established;! the bill proposed. It might be YKRY TKOi;M.r-SOT: for rs If we should ever as a neutral power become involved In a similar difficulty. Mr. t'onkling, of New . York,; said he would support the amendment of the gentleman from Ohio (Tharman). Tie announced his opposition to tbe feature of the bill . establishing a special court, and said that some regular court should be selected for the adjudication of claims and that the right of appeal should be given. He favored tbe plan of the House bill andjwld he would probably offer an amend ment similar thereto. Certainly underwriters Hhoald be allowed to have their say In court. Mr. Frelinghoysen.of ew Jersey, said that on the distribution of this relief fund the money should go to Indemnify those who lost by the war. If insurance companies 101 ry tne war. let them be indemninea. ny snouid tney have more than an indemnity. Mr. took ton, of New York, gave notice that he would offer an amendment to the 12th nee Hon forbidding the allowance of claims where the rtartv lniared nad receivea an inaemniiy irom any insurance company, so as to provide that no Claim snail oe aiioweu iu ubiiui ui inr ciaiuiaut. unless sucn claimant snail snow to the satisfac tion of the court that during tbe late rebellion the sum of his loses exceeded the sum oi his gains. Mr. Edmunds, of Vermont, made a lesal anru ment in reply to tbe objections against the bill and maintained that the principles of the bill had been settled by judicial decisions in tbe United Htates for many years. He quoted from Judge Niorey's and others, declxlono In roiutt of American vessels destroyed in the war of 1S12, and contended that the wrong committed by Great Brit lan was not aeainst the individual citizen, but against the nation, and that was the'princlple which gov erened the presentation of our case at Geneva, and he said that no nation would or could, with respect, submit the questions of its relations or obligations to its own ciuzens to a ioreiga tri buna!. Tbe Question wax then taken on the amend mentor Mr. Thurman to strike out that clause ezclndlnz the claims of Insurance companies. aud it was agreed to. Yeas.

Mr. Sherman offered an amendment that all claims provable or to be allowed under tbe act shaU be estimated and adjudged upon the basis OI UNITED STATES GOLD COIN at the time of the loss. At the request of several senators it was agreed that this amendment should be debated, and that the agreament made yesterday should be laid aside for the present. Mr. Bherraan, in support of his amendment, said that these vessels were de stroyed upon tbe high seas, and all their com roercial relations were with foreign ports of the world, where gold was the standard, ine claim ants mischt tile their claims at a currency value. and they might amount to twenty or thirty millions of dollars. Mr. Howe, of Wisconsin, said that the amend ment had better be adopted, tnough he did not think it would lie possible for any court to award tbe value of a piece of property now at tne cur rency value of two years ago However the amendment would do no harm. Mr. Conailnjr favored the amendment and said the bill provided that Interest should be allowed to tbe claimants. Mr. Sherman's amendment was agreed to, yeas 37. narsz. Mr. Sherman offered an amendment author izlng the secretary of the treasury to pay tbe judgment of the court created by the bill in coin and directing him to Issue and stil bonds of a similar character to the new five per cent. bonds. Agreed to. Mr. Conkllng said that the first ten sections of the bill related entirely to the organization of a special court, and provided tne necessary machinery for its management. He therefore moved to strike out those sections and insert in lieu thereof, the provisions of the House bill conferring the Jurisdiction upon a regular Circuit Court of the United State, to be selected by the president within sixty days after the passage of the act.

Mr. Sargent offered another amendment, pro viding that all claims now on file In the state department, proved and verified in axwrd ance with the rules promulgated by the department, except such items as were declared inadmissible by tne Geneva tribunal, shall be deemed conclusive without further proof. Rejected without a division. Mr. Stewart, of Nevada,o tiered an amendment that all expenses incurred by the United feuate in negotiating the award in the case, and iu the distribution of the same, shall be reimbursed before any private claim is paid. Agreed to, yeas 21, nays iü.

A 8EXKIBI.K SPKKTH HARMOFT URHD THK RAILROAD qrKSTIOX MODERATION ADVISED. Atlanta via Nashville, May 13. Tbe Agricultural Congress assembled in this city at 10 o'clock thia morning. A large number of delegates were present. The convention was called to order by President Jackson who delivered the following addresa: It gives me great pleasure in tbe discharge of my duty as tbe presiding officer of this honorable body, representing the great agricultural interests of our nation to greet you on this annual reunion of the representatives of sections horth, south, east and west. Thla great force ot national intelligence must ever command respect . and confidence ior its utterances . and exercise material influence on the measures ot national estate legislation. We as one organization are in our Infancy. We are closely watched. We are suspected and the snspicion is often expressed that these agri cultural associations.- whether limited or national, will degenerate into political partisan agencies. I trust, gentlemen, onr measures, our action, will steadily and uniforaüly be such as to convince the nr.lon that our great end and aim is to build up and delend the rights and interests of agriculture and give no aid or countenance to political demagogues or partizans, who may chacce to foist themselves on any of our organizations for the sake of personal pre ferment. . Yet it will be our constant right, as it should be our aim, to promote among tbe masses of farmers a more intelligent understanding of political economy in its relation to agriculture by papers, discussions upon finance, taxation, com merce, etc., to tbe end that we mar select such representatives, state or national. whether from our associations or outside of them, as will be likely, with ability, integ rity and dilllgence, to sustain and advance tbe cause of agriculture. Tbe farmers have greater inducements to be patriotic and conservative than other vocations. That is tbe business which sustains the govern ment, and the government must sustain it. The tree that bears the fruit must be nourished , and protected. The feelings and desires of tbe farmers remain uncared for, bnt a railroad monooolv. a stock asso ciation, tbe petitions and wants of bond holders, or the confabulations of an office seeker are ot more moment than THK PRICE OF WHEAT, . corn, tobacco, even though that ' price in volves a loss to the producer. He then felici tates tbe congress on the good results of the organizations of the past two years, urges the necessity or co-operation and union, illustrated by the Scotch proverb, "Many rmckles make a muckle." Let then the coral reef and tbe bee hive be part oi our symuonc language, wmcn Dro . ' i , , ... perlv interpreted means industry, net-sever ance, self-reliance and especially union of iorces. Let aii in our ranKs aspire to be high privates, ijet none do ronna more solicitionsfor official position than for tbe success of our cause. Let not the variet y of one or gunizationsor flags or officers or locality be any obstacle to tbe advancement of the great and common object which we are seek to promote. Let harmony prevail throughout our extensile camps. He urges the obliteration of sectional antipathies; the cul tivation oi gooa leiiowsblp and brotherly love. Let our constant endeavor be to re move all hindrances to the steady advance of our local and national organizations, and let the wise heads of our assemblies be ever taxed for tne conirioution or valuable, practica ideas, whicu will help to enlarge tbe horizon or a general intelligence, skill and Drosreritv He then discusses tbe contemplated increase of tbe organization from year to year and to Becure a lull representation at their annual meetings suggests the necessary amend ments to tbe constitution to meet tbe expect ed exigencies. He then calls attention to some of the burthens which agriculture has to bear and says our government has. in times nast. dealt ontnnr mihi! dAmaln h I ..L. to provide homesteads for immigrants from foreign lands aa wen as ior natives and very large and liberal appropriations of this public treasure nave oeen set apart to aid and en courage railroad enterprises ; and yet these advancements to public works have been coupled with no restrictions on RAILROAD TARIFFS for the protection of the population, induced oy governmeui ooanty to settle on or near the line of their work. Ina word, nothin has been done by the government policy to bring about cheap transportation, and verv mnch'doubt whether the railroads. honestly and economically conducted, could anord suiucientiy cheap transnorta tion for as bulky commodities as corn and grain. Besides there is not a sufficient number of railroads for the transportation of the products of the grain producing region of this country. It seems to me that the improvement of wate routes, tne opening oi new canals is a ne cessity. We should approach with great care any action leading to the disturbance of vested rights by legislative enactment. Railroad charters are in tbe nature of con tracts. and it : would be nnwise and nnsafe to establish tbe precedent of violating contracts, though I am aware that au eminent journalist thinks the passenger and freight traffic on the railroads should be regulated as tolls on turnpike roads. Tbe remedy lies in examining whether these companies have violated ttnir charters. If so, annul them and begin de coro. And permit mein this connection, gentlemen, to remark that the most effective method to reduce the cost of transportation is to encourage the building of manufacturing establishments to work up tbe raw material. .In falling back to the ranks, and laying aside the regalia of office, which I propose doing at the close of our present session, let me assure my fellow laborers and brethren of the plow that though my sphere of operations may be more circumscribed, yet my zeal in tbe cause we have at heart will be nowise abated us a citizen. I deem it ray duty and privilege, as it is my desire, to contribute my mite to the elevation and enlightenment, the progress and refinement, the culture and influence of that class which, like the granite that underlies our mountains, chains and sustains the burdens of tbe government, while it gives strength and durability to the great principles that should mold, control and fashion ohe grand superstructure of human society.
