He - aays the desolation will commence by the fishes of the sea dying, and pestilence and famine occurring in southern latitudes.' It is said that many fish are dying off the coast of Florida and in other southern states. This, with the famine in China, and the recent terrible yellow fever scourge in portions of the sonth, are thought to be forerunners of the fulfillment of the prediction. xiik sueut uul Bieaiiujr aiirpa ui resumption" must have affected matters in .North Carolina, judging from a letter which a lawyer of tt at section writes to some parties, returning claims which had been sent him for collection. He said that he had offered to take anything for them, "old clothes, circus tickets, whetstones, gourds, coon skins, jaybirds or owls," and with a burst of eloquence concludes: "How in the world can a man collect money out of a people who plough little speckled bulls on hill sides, and the darkies plough gardens with sows.'' Oh! Sherman could make the collections. Send him down. n . t. i l in i t it CALEB CUSHIHG. Just as we were going to press yesterday norning, the telegram was received announcing the death of the eminent genUesnan wlicee name stands at the head of this articla. He died at his home in Newburyport, Mass., on Thursday night, January 2, 1879. Having been born January 17, 1830, he was consequently as old as this century, and had lived beyond the proverbial three score years and ten. He was a man of remarkable and versatile talent, having filled important positions in the history of the country for the past half century or more keeping well abreast of the eminent statesmen and great jurists of his time, the equal of the shrewd politician and the peer of the able statesman. He wan born in Salisbury, Mass., and was graduated from Harvard College at the age of 17. He was admitted to the bar at the bcfa nt anil almiHt Immpi1iiito1vi1vnoi1 to the front rank of the leading men of his native state, appearing first in the lower house of the Massachusetts Legislature, and one year afterward in the upper house. The next seven years of hU life were spent in traveling abroad and in literary pursuits. In 1833 he was again elected to the State Legislature of Massachusetts for two years, after which he represented his congressional district in the lower branch of the National Legislature for four consecutive terms In 1344, as commissioner to China, lie negotiated the first treaty ever made between this country and the Chinese empire. After his return home he wss again sent to ' the Legislature of his native state, and we next find him at the head of a regiment of Massachusetts troops with General Taylor In Mexico. After the conclusion of the Mexican war he returned to his home in Masachusetts, and in 1850 was once more elected to the State Legislature, for the sixth time. In the same year he was elected the first mayor of Newburyport, and again elected the following year to the same position. In 1852 he was appointed a justice of the' Massachusetts Supreme Court, and in 1853 Mr, President Fierce CUe4 him into his Cabinet aa hid attorney general, ia whiog position he served until the close of the Pierce administration in 18-57. He returned some, and for the next three years he was returned to the State Legislature of Massachusetts. In April, 1800, he presided over 'the deliberations of the Democratic National convention at Charleston, 8. C, and when the convention divided between Douglass and Breckenridge, he followed and presided over the Breckinridge wing, which met in Baltimore, Maryland, in the following June. During the war he stood faithfully by the National Government, bat occupied no position of public importance. In 1866 he was appointed one of three eminent lawyers to revise and codify the law of the United States. He afterwards ' represented our government at the Geneva conference for the settlement of the Alabama claims, and was appointed by President Grant in 1873 minister to Spain. In addition to filling all of these prominent positions very acceptably and creditably, he was twice named for high positions by president of the United States ones sa secretary of the treasury by President Tyler, and once ss chief justice of the Uni ted States by President Grant. In the former . fc k K Cjin.t. -nit n the latter his nomination was recalled by ' the president. Caleb Curbing was so mere politician. His magnificent handling of the interests of the country at the Geneva conference, and the acceptable and satisfactory adjustment ' of delicate matters at the Court of Madrid incident and actions all comparatively re cent and fresh in tie public mind stamp ' aim Sa a man of broad, pronounced and ' statesmanlike views and qualifications. LEQ13 L ATTVB WORK. - Within the next ten days the represent a'ivesof.tbe people of Indiana will have convened in f enral assembly for the trans- - action of such business as, in their wisdom. the welfare of the state demands. Coming, ' as they, will, direct from the people, while the dissenUSns of the campaign are fresh in 1 their minds, ft is presumable that the inter- ; eats of the people will be the prime motive of every proposition. - Governor Williams, in his message, will prudently outline the important work of the session, and the seports from state offices, tai those connected with state institutions. will aflerd the members of the legislature in tomatlan poa subjects of vital interest,
and help them to meet intelligently the requirements of the times. A United States senator is to be elected: first for the term reaching , to the 4 th of March next, and secondly for a term of six years from the 4th of March, 1879, ending in the year 1885. That the choice will fall for both terms upon the Hon. Daniel W. Voorhees the Sentinel feels assured, and hence no argument to establish the eminent propriety of such a choice need be adduced. The legislature will be called upon to redeem the state from the obloquy of the disfranchisement of thousands of democrats, the result of radical infamy and radical supremacy. We feel assured that the gerrymandering outrage will find among its opponents some very staunch republicans, and this fact gives assurance that the democracy, in demanding a just apportionment of the state for legislative and congressional purposes, will have the opposition of such radicals only as are blinded by their partisan prejudices. We take it for granted that, in view of the impoverished condition of tax-payers, the severest economy consistent with the publicwelfare will be " insisted upon,' and that there will bs no places for supernumeraries and sinecurists, and retrenchment will be in order. It is quite possible that some factional opposition may be made to the state house enterprise, though we prefer to believe that prudent counsels have got the better of the crude objections with which the measure was at first confronted, and that such legislation will be had as will enable the commissioners and contractors to push forward the work to completion. It has been suggested, in view of transportation difficulties, with which Indianapolis interests have been compelled to contend, that legislation would be asked for calculated to prevent future difficulties and future perils to Indiana's commerce. The subject, how ever, is one of extreme delicacy, and which will require, if legal restraints are to be imposed, a thorough analysis of the whole question ol railroads in their relation to the people, and consequent ability in the adjustment of all the interests involved. We conclude that the legal rate of interest will be reduced, and that six per cent, will be the limit allowed by law. This is the demand
of the people, and few propositions command greater unanimity. We are equally well convinced that the law permitting creditors to incorporate in notes the provis- . ion that attorney's fees may be charged against the debtor in case of suit will also be repealed, rather than modified. It is quite possible that an effort will be made to take from the discretion of the governor the exercise of the pardoning power, aud to create what is termed a "board of pardons." This measure was suggested as an insult to Governor Williams by men inferior to him in all regards, and will not be tolerated by the democratic members of the legislature. ' In addition to these measures others will be brought forward, until the bills will doubtless be as numerous as at the last session. We conclude, in view of the fact that the legislature will urge economy in all things, that the members will economize time and get down to the hard work of the session earlier than hitherto. In that event questions will undergo greater scrutiny; bills will be better matured, and the laws enacted more in consonance with the public welfare. CLIPPINGS. Skvkn t 'eight, old boy, good bye!

LOST ASD FOUND.
A Girl Stolen From Her Mother aaa FeeuMt Alter Bevew Tears. Springfield (Mo.) Patriot. Some six months ago Mrs. , of this city, took from the county house a little girl about 12 years old, named Addle Young. She had been left there some time before by a Mr. McLsin, who stated to Mr. Hay, tbe superintendent, that Addie was deranged. - The girl has been in Mr. Moore's family up to tbe present time. She could give little account of herself, except that she had lately lived in several different families and tbat her former home was in Atlanta, Georgia. Her education had been sadly neglected, and when she came to Mr. 's she did not even know tbe letters of the alphabet. Sbe proved to be an ordinarily bright and well disposed girl, and teemed pleased, as well she might, after the bufletines she had endured, with her new home. Thus matters relative to the little girl were situated, wben, in October last, among the "advertised" letters at the Springfield office, Mrs. noticed one for Addie Young. Of course she "obtained it, and found it to read as follows: Atlanta, 111., Oct. 20, 1878. Miss Addle Young, Springfield. Mo.: - - Miss Addie If this letter falls into your hands, please answer immediately. I have tried to find yon for sometime. I bave some or your own mother's thing in my possession all of her clothes, her watch and her photograph. They are in my charge for you if you wn be found, and if you can't they go to your half-brother. So yon see it is ol the greatest importance that I learn your whereal) .uts. You are almost twelve years old and ought to be able to read and write, so I address you as the surest means of reach ing y ou. Direct your letter to Uki. Willux Uakhett. p. 8. Your mother's people and your halfbrother all live in Missouri. Of course a letter was addressed to Mrs. William Garrett, Atlanta, 111. After a few weeks the following singular reply was received: Atlanta, IU., Wednesday, Dec. 17, 73. Mrs. , Spring field, Mo. : Mas : You can not realize with what Joy and what sorrow your letter was read by me to think Addie, my darl n Addie, is found at last. I will have to tell you my story, but where shall I begin? Flrrt, I am berown mother, she was stolen from me several years ago, and I thought her dead. At the age of 5 1 married a man of wealth by the name ef Young, her father. He took sick and while on bia death bed his people poisoned his mind against me. and he willed all or his properiy to Addle in trustor bis brother and sister, and if Addie died before a certain time it all went to them ail but enoueh for my barest needs. After his death 1 lay very low with fever. For weeks I never knew anything, and when I be.?an to be conscious and inquired for my litt e girl they told me I had no little girl; that she was dead. Thev even showed me her grave, and I was so near broken-hearted 1 did not know anythine that happened lor months they had in the meantime sent me home to my own people. AlUhis time I mourned I Addie as dead, ami so did my people, until three years ago, t"hen her aunt dleS, and on her death bed she maaeacoSfesaionandsentit to my mother. ShThaaa"en? Addie ?i id taken her to Springfield, Mo., and given her to n. Mrs MhtwpIi-aeood woman. My brother wenTtht Indented f .her and for three years we have all been lok'"S herJ and a the time I bave tried to nna Mri' Maxwell. Finslly something prompted me to write Addie herself, and you know the result. It has been Just seven years New Year's dy since I saw her. She was five years old the 17th of January. I remember the testanieoU It was a cheap little testament, but she took a fancy to it and had me write her name in it, and her age also. How little I thought it would lead to her identity. O ! If we could only see once in a while into the future, how much anguish might be saved. Every year as Christmas comes around 1 remember her, and lor three years I have bought her a Christmas and birthday gift hoping, praying tbat God would return her to my loving embrace. O! Mrs. .you will let me have her, won't you? Think if one of your darling little boys was stolen how unhappy you would be, and how happy it would make you if somebody should restore him. It nearly kills me to thiuk that my darling was in a pauper's house, when she has plenty of her own. And to think tbat she was abused. O. how it hurts me! lean hardly write 1 am so overcome with emotion, to think what my tender baby girl must have suffered. And then for them to tell ber I was dead, and I was ail the time grieving for her! She has my people's name nearly right. It is Sherman, aud they live in Jamestown, Mo. I am going to send Addle my photograph, ami pe haps she will remember ine. You will send her to me, I know. Iam willing to pay you for keeping her, and to send you mouev to pay her way here. If I only conld I would come after ber, instead of writing; butlcau't a I am unable to travel. If she is put in the conductor's care she can come to St, Louis, and he can put her on the Chicago and Alton road and send her to Atlanta. Please let me know if you will send her and wben. lfhe onlv could come for Christmas how happy I would be. I believe you to be a good, kind wnninD, and may God bless you for the kiudnesa you bave shown my child. Please answer right away. Mas. William Garrett. Accompanying the letter was the photograph mentioned therein as being that of Mrs Garrett, who claims to be the mother of Addie. It represents a bright and rather good -looking woman, some 35 years of age, and really hears a striking resemblance to ue gir'. . ' Inquires made bv Mr. since the re ception of Mrs. Garrett's letter, show that about three years ago the girl was left with a Mr. Maxwell, near Ebenezer, in this county, by an old lady Irom North Springfield. Sbe soon after left the country, and her present residence is unknown. As she was seriously atllicted with cancer at the time, the probabilities are that she is not now Hying. The eld lady told Maxwell she came from Texas, and that the girl's parents were, or had been, wealthy. Further correspondence is being bad to as certain whether Mrs. Garrett is in fact tbe mother of Addie. Some of the facts in the case seem to confirm Mrs. Garrett's statements, and she writes of Addie as a mother might be expected to of a long lost child. , Ou the other band there are tome apparent inconsistencies, and some things that probably indicate there is a fortune for the girl which somebody would like to handle. Mr. and Mrs. are ready to surrender the girl as soon as convinced that it is in fact the mother that claims her, and are waiting wiih considerable interest further developments in the case. vceb THiaies is ihb huu. What West last the Gagllab Pest Office . Dating; the Pent Tear. .(.London Times.1 Tbe pest office continues to be used as a means of transmitting, articles of almost every variety from one part of the country to tbe other. The folfowing articles were observed: A ' door mouse, four white mice, two goldfinches, a lizard end a blind worm, all alive; cutlery, medicine, varnish, ointments, perfumery, articles of dress, a sioat, a squirrel, fish,' leeches, frogs, beetles, caterpillars and vegetables. A snake, about a yard in length, which bad been committed to tbe post for transmission in a box, was observed to be at large on the floor of one of the night mail sorting carriages on the London and Northwestern Bail way. . After a good deal of confusion and interruption to the work it was killed. A small box which reachei the returned letter office in Liverpool was found, on being opened, to contain eight living snakes. A check for 9 15s was found loose in a pillar letter-box in Birmingham, but the owner, who was traced through tbe bank, was nnsble to explain in anyway how it bad got out of hit possession. Complaint having been made that certain letters wbich onght to have reached s bookseller in a country town bad not been received, it was concluded. after inquiry, that they bad been duly delivered, but had subsequently been withdrawn from under the street door, wbich was furnished with a slit to receive letters, bnt without a box to retain them. During alterations in the shop, however, when it wss necessary to remove the flooring under the windows, the discovery wss made of 3L letters. six pest cards and three newspapers, which bad been carried thither by rats. Tbs corners of the letters, etc., bearing the stamps, were nibbled
away, leaving no doubt that the gam upon the labels were the inducement to the theft. Several of the letters contained checks and money orders. .The following is one of tbe many curious applications addressed to the Department: Tknkessbe, Oct. 4, 1877. Dear Sir: I want you to do me a klness to hand this to some good watch maker and tell him to see If I can by a Instrument to tell where gold or silver is in the ground or if there is a instrument maid to And mettel gold or silver that are in the ground.

An English correspondent appealed to Lord John Manners for protection against ''those who annoyed him in his calling as a gardener and seedsman." A Swiss teacher wished to find a school for tbe applicant; another correspondent inquired for "Mirhridate mustard, which grows at Peckham, on the Surrey side," and a Yankee said he ''would like to discuss the habits and nature of our people" with Lord John, or any one else. The continued depression in trade was not without its effects on the telegraph business; and although the number of public messages was larger than in tbe preceding twelve months the increase only amounted to 4-15,610. On the other hand, the interest attached to the progress of the war between Russia and Turkey and to the negotiations for peace and consequent debates in parliament led to a large increase 25 per cent in the amount of matter transmitted on behalf of tbe prog;. The postoftice delivered npward of 250,000 000 of words of news. A pleasure party telegraphing to some friends stated tbat they had "Arrived all right," bnt the message was rendered, 'Ve have arrived all tight." In another case, a poor person, desiring to state tbat her daughter was ill, wrote on her message, "Mary is bad." This was rendered. '"Mary is dead."
TYPOGRAPHICAL. BLUNDERS. A Fresh Compilation r Amusing- Illustrations. Springfield Republican. A great many columns have been written concerning typographical errors, and many of the instances sound so witty or so stupid tbat it seems as if they must be rather inventions than actual happenings. But we never saw one cited so unllkety that we couldn't remember its match. Once we wrote that it was "like evoking the shadow of a shade" to quote forgotten writers. The phrase appeared in print thus: "Like cooking tbe shadow of a shad." The printer bad, in burlesquing tbe sentiment, actually preserved and intensified it in a most striking image of unsubstantiality. At another tim we bad quoted tbe proverbial opinion of "Rosalind," "Men have died and worms haye eaten them but not for love." The printer may have been a misogynist; at all events he substituted "women" for "worms." There are Sbakspeare emendations not much better than that, perhaps. In one of tbe country weeklies there was recently an account of the presentation to some one of a Bible "bound in 'guilt.' " In a discuEsion one spoke of "toe 'divine totality of being;' " it was reported as "the sublime brutality of feeling." This may have been tbe repoiter's error; but not so when a Methodist college president spoke ot sin as "a dark, guilty damning feet," and found it published as "a dark, quietly dawning tact," and describing the death of Jesus as "vicarious," saw it in print "vivacious." This was in a very religious paper, and another into an eloquent hymn admitted this questionable temperance sentiment, "I praise The still." Sometimes these things are so funny that the writer can't be as angry as he would like, but still that Virginia editor must have been "hopping mad" when his powerful leader wound up with, "Courage, tillers of the land! and forget, in the excitement of politics, your pantry and your nursery!" He had written "poverty" and "misery." And how must Astronomer Proctor have felt when, having written of "Lines, bands and stria; near tbe violet end of tbe "spectra," he was represented as seeing "Links, bonds and stripes for the violent kind of specters!" Perhaps as if he bad had a peep into a spiritual lunatic asylum which must be necessary enough, if tbe mediums have got the rights ef it, to store Diakkas in. BALLET CilStLS. How tbe tiaeae Clad Ranks ef the Theater are Filled. Rochester Democrat and Chronicle. It does appear a little mysterious at first that anywhere in the city 50 girls can be induced to go upon the stage in the costumes of tbe ballet, but, like tbe majority of tbe stage mysteries, It is really a common, business like matter. A reporter of this paper had a conyeres'ion with Manager Benton last evening, and, among other things, extracted a little information on this point. It 'z not always easy to secure the required number who bave all the necessary qualifications for a public appearance, and, in fact, girls who have never been on are extremely bashful about making their first appearance. The majority of those who answer the call are shop girls, girls who take work to their homes, girls suddenly thrown out of employment, and other poor girls who have no other way ot honestly earning a dollar. There are a few, perhaps 12 or 15, who. have been in the ballet a number of times before, and tbey have come to look at it very much as a matter of business. Tbey work regularly In tbe shops, and when tbeir services are required at tbe Opera House, it consumes only a few hours in the evening, and the pay is very liberal, besides the novelty and excitement, which, of course, are something of an attraction in themselves. Occasionally . there is a girl with a well rounded form and a spirit of adventure, who goes into it merely for the fun or the thing, but they are rare. A good character is always demanded by a manager before he will engage a girl for tbe ballet, but occasionally, notwithstanding all his vigilance, a black sheep will get into the flock, though she is generally discovered before long and fired out with little ceremony. It is to be inferred that considerable judgment has to be exercised in tbe acceptance of those wbe aspire to the costume of tights and gauze dress, but on this point the manager was singularly bashful and incommunicative. It is a lamentable fact, however, that all ladies are not plump and symmetrical, and for those lacking these charms there is no door to tbe ballet stage. Even should tbey be engaged, the keen eye of the ballet master would single them out st tbe first dress rehearsal, snd nothing could induos him to run tbe risk of allowing a '"centennial fairy" to appear before the audience. Such embarrassing predicaments seldom occur, though, ss a girl Is generally pretty well satisfied tbat she will pass inspecuoa before offering her services. 6lmnf (tlmllarlly. Samuel and James Wilkins, of Guvelaod, Oakland county. Michigan, are twins. Tbey were born in 1793, and for men nearly 80 years of age are hale, hearty and robust. Tbey have accumulated considerable property both being farmers, their farms nearly joining, and both going into the woods aud clearing up their farms about the same time. They resemble each other so closely that their neighbors can not tell them apart. They both married sisters on the same day. One peculiarity of particular note is that when one is sick with any disease, as fever or other prostrating illness, the other ia taken with the same complaint within a few hours, even theogh he is not aware of his brother's illness. Besides the Siamese Twins we do not remember an instance of so peeeiiar a similarity ol physical ooustitu-tions.
, XCstDEB WILL, OCT.
Tbe Killed Avtkwr Dyseai ' ApftretMBded mt I mmt. . Cleveland Leader. Nearly two years ago the residents of Sheffield, England, were shocked over the announcement tbat Mr. Arthur Dyeon, a civil engineer, well known both sides of the Atlantic as having been connected with the building of several important railroads, had been foully murdered. A large reward was offered for tbe capture of the murderer, who was known as ops of the most noted cracksmen tbe English police had to deal with. Circulars, giving a photograph snd full description of the murderer, were sent to tbe police of every part of tbe world; but, despite every effort, he succeeded in eluding tbe vigilance of the detectives until recently, when he was arrested for perpetrating a burglary near London, and afterward KECOGRIZED AS TBC MrtRDEEKB of Mr. Dyson. Meanwhile, Mrs. Dvson left England and came to Cleveland. Being the only witness of the murder, ber presence is needed at the trial of the prisoner, and on Tuesday evening last Thomas Walsh, sergeant of tbe Sheffield detective police, arrived in this city from England in search of the lady. He consulted with the police of the city, and by their aid succeeded in finding Mrs. Dyson living with some friends on the West Bide. A Leader reporter called upon her yesterday, and was told the circumstances of the murder. The lady, who is handsome, and apparently young, dresses in mourning for her late husband. Thongh of a modest and retiring disposition, preferring not to bave her came appear too prominently in print. Mrs. Dyson briefly recounted the facts of the tragedy of which she was a witness. About 8 o'clock one evening in April, 1877, Mr. Dyson and lady were sitting In the parlor of tbeir resdence in Sbeftield, wben a loud nng at the door bell was heard. Mr. Dyson was reeding at the time, and as tbe servants were known to be busy. Mrs. Dyfon answered the summons. On opening the door, she was confronted bt a mas; below the medium stature, with a long, gray beard, giving him a venerable appearance, and the lady judged the stranger to be in tbo neighborhood of 00 years of age. He asked to see Mr. Dyson, and was requested to send in his card. He had none, be said, but insisted on seeing Mr. Dyson. Suspecting that be meant mischief, she attempted to close tbe door. The stranger probably thought the door would be opened by a servant, and he would be shown inside tbe residence to await the appearance of Mr. Dyson, and when be found that his plan would not work, he attempted to thwart tbe lady's design, and immediately attacked her. A scream brought her husband to the scene, and, upon his attempting to rescue Mra. Dyson, the robber drew a revolver and fired at the husband, tbe builet taking effect in his left temple, causing death. The lady was (tunned for the moment, and could scarcely realize what had transpired. Her first impulse was to F0LIX1W THE MI RDEBER, who immediately fled, but just as he was about to scale the wall of the court he paused as if to consider the propriety of killing Mrs. Dyson, and thus put out of tbe way the only living witness of his crime. The apiiearance of a number of people, who werd attracted by the pistol thoc and the lady's screams, soon decided the matter for him, and he concluded to run and thus escape capture. The police were notified and every effort was immediately made to arrest tbe perpetrator of the deed. Tbe man was minus free fingers of the left hand, and from other points in Mrs. Dyson's description of him lie was recognized by the police as Charles Peace, alias Ward, a noted London burglar, who, for many years had been concerned in some of tbe boldest robberies in England, each time escaping detection. Circulars containing a photograph and an accurate description of Peace were sent everywhere. A reward of 100 was offered for his arrest, snd a few months later, no clue having yet been discovered, AN ADDITIONAL REWARD of 100 was offered for the murderer of Sir John Brown. Mr. Dyson, fearing tbat Peace might murder her to cover np his crime, concluded to leave tbe country, there was danger traveling too, for Peace was understood to be at tbe head of a large and wellorganized gang, any one of whom would not hesitate to kill Mrs. Dyson, and thus aid tbeir cheif. While she remained in England her house was guarded by tbe police, and when she decided to depart for America the same officer who now comes to accompany ber back escorted her ss far as (jueenstown, Ireland, the last stopping place of the steam er previous to reaching America. Mrs, Dyson bad been in America several times before, baving accompanied her hus band whenever bis business railed him away from bis nstive land. As considerable of Mr. Dyson's labors had been in the VICINITY Or CLEVELAND, he made many acquaintances in this city, and hither his wife decided to come. Since her arrival she has not hesitated to do what sbe could to aid tbe police, who, stimulated by the large reward ottered, used every means to capture the murderer. Last month a man was arrested in Lambeth, just outside of the city of LondoD, for being concerned in a burglary and attempted murder. He was convicted and sentenced to penal servitude for life. While awaiting the time for the carrying out of the sentence it was discovered that tbe prisoner was none other than Peace, the murderer of Mr. Dyson. He had shaved off his beard, and otherwise disguised himself, but for all that he was recognized as the individual for whom the police in every quarter of the world had been looking for months. Detective Walsh wss immediately tent to America for Mrs. Dyson, who was found as above described. Mr. Dyson was a man well known in his profession everywhere, and bad traveled extensively in following his line of business. In the United States he was engaged with SIB MORTON PETO in the building of tbe Atlantic snd Great Western Bail way. He also bad charge of the construction of the Yandalia and Terre Haute, the Iron Mountain, and other lines, being also associated for some time with the late Mr. Collins on tbe . Lake Shore Road. Tbe "Grand Trunk Railway of Canada was also constructed under his management. So great was his reputation ss an engineer that be was tendered an appointment to India, but declined on account of oor health.' In appearance he is described as a fine-looking man, well built aud standing six feet six inches in height. Mr, Walsti, the English officer, formerly lived in Clevelaad, and has iriends here now. ' Going back to England be entered the police service, and as the result of good work as an officer was promoted to be sergeant of the detective force. He is a young man. probably under thirty years of age, snd in all probability will achieve distinction in his profession. . Mrs. Dyson was reluctant to go to England at first, fearing that some of Peace's gang would molest ber when tbey learned of her coming, but she has finally decided to go, now that she Is assnrad of protection on the journey. The lndy has a win 8 years old living in Sbeftield, whom she is anxious to meet, and prohebly this fact as much as anything else induced her to decide on going. She has numerous friends in England also, who are anxious 'or ber to come, and it is probable tbat she will depart with Detective Walsh after the holidays. '.
