She followed me to camp. Ehe shared jmj dangers even to the picket, and at times in Ue daDer of batUe; and under .Providence, I we to her tender nursing that my life was pared me. Way should I bate her If we should tarn enr tack on that man, refuse him our sympathies, we would merit the scorn of every brave man in thus audience, and you would feel a- sollte contempt for us. When Jeff Davis left the 1' ni ted etates -enate he left it rich with regret and full of political honors. For our sates be levaroe poor and debarred forever from political honors In his own country. He lingers to-day with broken health and scarcely a place to lay his head, dragging after Mm the woan.de 1 limbs with increasing muttering that followed aim from Buena Vista. What would you think ol me if I said: "Go hence; I have no more ae for you." I am not going to do it. 1 would lave contempt for General Meryon (who sat on ibe stare) if he went back on the grand old same of Abraham Lincoln. 1'ut yourself in the other follow place. It was my fortune a few weeks ago, at Philadelphia, to take part in tbe celebration of the acopi:n of the Constitution, and when Georgia ad taken her part I was proud as I stood in t&e streets to see tne chattered remnants of the Uiiion army bearing the shattered remnants ot the -ld Hags, and as thoy were viewed by that Vtcler Muht amid the shouts of ten thousand threats. I felt that thrill that I knew aas palsatiog in the veins of strong, grand men, the remnants of the Grand Aimyoi the Republic. Vcy shouldn't I? They wre consecrated to a cause which to those who suhered aroand il tin -was holy as honor ani trutn. J would have no fifth in librae and liberty it tbofe men did notlove their tlgs. So, too. we loved curs. Let us get out of tue universe whea hatred of the 8.uth hi cal ed loyalty to tie St rth. I m going to show you that our children should love their Cags. A man is better wtohasthe nerve to do justice, whatever it test. Was there any honor in cam log those old tfapv." Tney. t o. were woven dv the patriotic hands of southern w omen. They were delivered to nusbandsand broihers-Consecrated by tear and prayers.

Grant, tbe greatest general of the Union army, said he was willing to share in the dedication of a monument to the Confederate tfead. There isn't good sense in it, and tbe man wbo tries to f tir yoir pasion, doesn't dtMrrre your votes You see in some of your papers column after column about rebel flags. Tfcia ia tbe truth I was there. Tnere were in all that great central city of Macon a dozen conföderale flags, and fifty tnousand of the stirs and stripes, and yet some people are so color blind that they could not see anything but the rel Cais, and yet the very carriage that bore Jfff Davis- and the horses that drew him were literally cmered with Union flags. The very honte iß at hi was in was coverea "with them so m to almost biind him. Some speeches were xrade. A leader was chosen to present a memento of affection to his wife and the great climax of it was that the Union was rehabilitated ta a imer basis tban ever. :0KPO3f AT rOF.TSMOrTIT. rcRTMotTH, Ohio, October 2U. A heavy storm cf .rain broke upon the city with General Gordon, which interfered with tha ariargements. Democratic managers had rxade arrangements to give him a hearty reception, but notwithstanding the inclement weather a large audience greeted h i m. The G eneraL, u pon being in trod need, referred to the charge of being a Ka-Klnx, made oy the Republican press, and denied folly, asserting that he never, at any time following the war, belonged to any organization except one formed for the maintainsnceof law and order, andthatbe had not at any time been a member of any secret society. He then spoke of the charges of sentimentallsm, made by the Commercial-Ga .ette and acknowledged to the impeachment. He argued that all men actuated by the desire o promote their country's welfare, were sentimentalists. He then launched out on the main address by the statement first, that he would speak only of questions affecting the people of both North and South, and second, that he desired to be questioned fully and freely on any point upon which tbe audience desired to be Informed. He then spoke of the reception of Jeff Davis, justifying it a in his speech at Cincinnati last night. He then referred to the subject of rebel flags used in the Macon demonstration and touchingly described the love nis people felt for thefe war btained banners and their desire to behold them once more at their reunions. He held that while there were about a dozen of them unfurled, there were at least fiftythousand national ftsgi di-o!ajei bat that northern correspondents of a partisan press were affected with color blindness and could not see them. Id referring to the late war. tbe General said that at no fine had the South desired to cestroy the Union; that she had farDished too much valor and territory aud blood toward its formation acd opbailding to wish it destroyed; that the war was only the outgrowth of a construction of tbe constitution, which differed from that of the people of the North. Thesejtiocs be compared to two boys, "Johnnie and Yank," wbo fell out over a matter that ronld not be peaceably adjusted, and tbat Johnnie," having gotten the worst of the f gbr, bad been invled bacs by "Yank;" tat the invitatio", was accepted and "Johnnie" was back to stay. In substantiation of this, he said the people of tbe South would not have the verdict changed if they could ; that be :ad so expressed himself at re-unions of Coo fed rate soldiers and in other places and that be but echoed the sentiments of hie countrymen, rbe light vote of bis State in Presidential elections he ex plained by stating that tbe colored people, fending they bad been robbed by tha carpet bar element after tbe war, would no longer foliate with tbe Republican party in J'resi.lential elections, and the mass of them, not caring to vote with the Damo crats, Lad simply refrained from voting at all. Id temperance, fence law and other juettioiia of Etate interest, he eaid the full vote of both colored arid white people was cast withont interference or restraints and that on tue latter o.ueslion, colored men bad always carried the State against the financial interests of the whites. The general spoke At some length on the condition cl the colored people of tbe South, dow as compared with that of the years following tbe war. when they were trav elled hj to called Jl?pubiicarjs,and showed statistics that the colored people had In crested in wealth three-fold, ander Demo cratic rule; that their educational facilttiee, which were paid tor out of taxes col lected from the wbif. had increased over tw nty fo'.d and tbat they were as a people prcfrerocf, contents d and folly protected in 11 their rights.

Eeport f Threats Upon Gould's Life Sum Flolting in Chicago. New York, October 20. An evening paper prints a story in which it connects the departure of Jay Gould for Europe, with the approaching execution of the Chicago Anarchists. Tbe story says that the Anarchist lead ers "xed upon Gould as the man who by a bold and LiDeral use of his enormous money power, could stay the hand of justice and prevent what they look upon as the slaughter of the martyrs. Absurd as this notion is, they have not hesitated to act upon it boldly. At first Gould was approached in a neu tral, rather tban a threatening manner. The reliance of the Anarchist brotherhood upon his great power, and upon his exer cise of it in their behalf, was set forth in mysterious Communications, which he received some times by mail, and sometimes by the hands of furtive messengers in the street. As time passed on, and the case of the condemned eeven became more desperate, the anonymous messages became sharper in tone, and of a distinctly threat ening character. After this change of at titude the mails alone are used for their transmission, none of the really threaten ing letters being delivered to Mr. Gould in person. Later, the warnings have been of so decided a character, and so explicit in their terms, that Gould, who is not naturally a man of timid disposition, became thoroughly frightened, and began tomewhat hasty preparations for a long contemplated pleasure trip to Europe. His departure to-day is believed to be chiefly due to ai entire and natural willingness to pass the day of the Anarchist's executions, somewhere remote from tbe search of any possibility of their insane misdoings." Washington, October 20. The excite ment connected with the Anarchists' case seems to have died out for the time beio(T, with the conclusion of the arguments in the Supreme court of the l nited States. What little comment is heard to day is all in one direction and but emphasizes the general opinion expressed yesterday that the court will not grant a stay of proceed ings. It is not kDown when the decision will be rendered. The probabilities point to next Monday, though it may be delayed longer. Some lawyers express the belief tbat the court will simply announce its decision without giving an extended opinion in the case until later in the term, if at aiv Chicago October 2. An evening piper esys: "There is an anarchistic plot to break or blow up the jail, the police think, but extraordinary precautions are being taken to crush it in its inception. One ar rest has already been made, and there are Jikelv to be more arrests made to-night. The person arrested, a boy, was seen loiter ing about tbe jail last Thursday m company of a man. When the couple found they were being watched they attempted to run away. The Doy was captured, but the man escaped. The police, on searching the boy, discovered several papers giving a discription of the jail. The police are now endeavoring to find the man wbo escaped and are preserving the utmost secre cy in the matter. The nature or the Anarchist communi cations received by Mr. Gould may be judged by the following letter received at the White House yesterday addressed to President Cleveland: The ÜAi.tr, Holland, October 15. To the Tresidentof the United States: The Council General of tbe Democratic r ederation in Holland, feeling indignant at the Infamous judgment of tbe Illinois Supreme Court in the cae oi the Chicago A narchLsts, holds that the throwing of a bomb in the meeting held May 4, 1S6 was provoked by an outrageous assault of the police upon the peoples' right of free8peech. Furthermore, as tbe thrower of thelomb Is not known, the charging of the sevea Anarchists with the guilt of this act. is essentially arbitrary and the outgrowth of class hatred. Therefore, the Social Democratic Federation of Holland, in the name of humanity, liberty and justice, protest against the sentence of death passed unon the Chicago Anarchists, and despisicg the ruling classes lor making themselves a party to this murder, shall hold the President ot the United States personally responsible n me lives are taten. C.CltuLL.UeC. THE COIWUL GENERAL. A Had Case for Mrs. Cassidy. Chicago, October 20. "We have no prosecution in this case," said Prosecuting Attorney Nicholson to Justice White this morning, when the case of Maud Cassidy, charged with disorderly conduct in the matter of taking Julia Howden to a Marinette dive, was called. The Casaid wo man looked happy, but somewhat surfirist d. and stepped from the dock. She eft the court-room, but was immediately approached by an officer, who produced a warrant charging her with abaction. Mrs. Cas&idy was brought back, and again broueht before Justice tute, who. after some argument, continued the hearing until Novembbr 8, m bonds of 12,000. It is conceded that the Cassidy woman is in a very bad iix, and the officers expect to send her to tbe penitentiary for ten years. The case to be brouzht against the pris oner is tbat of Blanch louneid, the fit teen year old girl who was induced to leave her comfortable Lome on Indiaca avenue, and who was kept in Mike Leahy's houe against ber will until the frequenters of the place threatened interference. Thea, in spite cf her piteous appeals to be set at liberty, she was cent to one of the horrible dives at Hrjrley Ehe is there now, and this morning Lieut. Slayton telegraphed to the marshal at that place to hold the g'rl. Officers will start for Hurley to bring her back. The Cassidy woman's husband is Mike Cassidy, who is also concerned in S roc uring girls for the Wisconsin dens, 'eis now in Ironton, Mich. Leahy, who kept tbe Marinette place, is said t be now In Canada. Srt-rwsrjr Whitney 111. Washington, October 20. Secretary Whitney is cow in New York, and will not retnrn to Washington for an indefinite period. Although not suffering from any disease, he is forbidden by his physicians from undertaking any work. For the past year the Secretary has had troublesome headaches, which have grown more and moie severe and frequent until now he is nnable to wort. For the past two weeks he tas not been able even to read his letters, and although he has accumulated some of thematerials.be has written no word of his annual report, and there is no prospect that he will be able to prepare one. The physician states that with the necessary rest the Secretary will be perfectly well again, and it is probable that he will go to some quiet country place to recuperate. During his absence Commodore Harmony will act as Secretary, his duties and responsibilities being shared. however, by the board of bureau officers recently organized to meet this emergency. Snyder the Walker. Ckjcago, October 2!. A special from the Tillage of Mill Grove, Ind., says that John nyler, the man who walks because be can't stop, after an incessant tramp night ami day lor nearly three years. Is dying. He has aged wonderfully in the last six months and although he still goes on walk ing in the well beaten path about his noose, it Is with tottering steps and face wbico gives evidence of great suffering. It is believed that he cannot posMoly live many days, and be, himaeiC, now thinks he is near the end of his joarney. His strange auction, which no physician has yet been able to understand, has proved to be both a cur and a blessing to him and his family. Prior to it there was a constant struggle to keep the wolf from the door, bat aince. along with the train of his sorrow and woes it has brought hUu fame and fortune, and he is no e&i'l to

A CHECKERED CAREER"
The Secret cf C-rut, tbe Eigimist, Wao Died ia Kimcauetta' hL The Natural Son ot Victor Emanuel lias an AdTtntureui Carftr A Frnian, Bigamist, ewindler and Scoundrel. Boston, October 27. The mystery of a strange life haa been solved, and a wonder fully romantic story of criminal adventure has been brought out by the identification of the late Dr. Andrew Jackson Grant, bigamist acd confidence man, as the famous Fenian leader. Dr. Louis Contri, who was an illegitimate son of ictor Emanuel, King of Italy. The last words of this remarkable man, ts he lay dying in Cam bridge jail last April, were: "The world shall never know me as I was." Nevertheless, his secret has been probed, and the career which is exposed, will find none to match it. The doctor's disguise was pierced several weeks before his death by one or two persons who knew him years ago as Dr. Contii, but they did not expose him. He was then awaitinz trial for bigamy, and swindling Miss Lucy Torrey, of Cambridge, out of $20,000 and if he had lived to go into court, the whole story would probably have come out, for many persons hereabouts Knew the reman leader intimately, previous to 1872. These persons have fully identified Dr. Grant's photograph since his ltath as that of Dr. Contri. According to his story, he was born in Austria, but was tbe son of Victor Immanuel and Archduchess Adelhird, of Austria. He was born in 1812, two months before Victor Emanuel and the Archduchess were united in marriage. Victor Emanuel was at that time King of Sardinia, and did not succeed to the throne ot Italy until lst;i. When but a mere child be was transferred to the custody of an old abbott in Switzerland, by whom he was carefully schooled in the sciences. Among other things he made a specialty of languages, and so pro ficient bad he become tbat be could speak at least five with fluency. The old abbot became, as it were, a parent to him, and finally the 5 oung man s desires to know something of his parentage became so strong that the good old priest told hin all, even to the stain upon his birth. When tbe young man grew up he went to Sardinia and openly conspired against the King, and was forced to tiy. His alleged father supplied him with money. He came to America with Dr. McSbeehy, and when the war broke out he enlisted in a New York regiment. His connection with the Fenian raid on Canada is well known. It was his ventures in tbe marriage line that gave him his widest repntatioa. When he came to this country, be left a wile in Germany, but soon after landing here be took another. Little is known of his army life except tbe fact tbat he was taken prisoner and tent to Richmond some months before the fall of the Southern capital. He there made the acquaintance of Miss Virginia Saunders, a niece of Jefferson Davis. He was an Aaron Burr among woman, and he easily won the heart of Miss Saunders. Hardly had peace been declared before Contri married her and flew with her to Canada. Ttey had lived in Montreal a few months only when his young bride died, leaving him once more a free man, for his little German wife had obtained a divorce on account of his desertion. He returned at once to the States, and arrived in lk)6ton in the spring of 1SX, when FenianUm was at its height. He went into the struggle body and soul, and was among the first to enroll himself in the rank and file then preparing for a raid on Canada. So energetic was he that when the Fenians leit lioBton, he was a colonel. In lS'j'J, he married Mrs. Jane Delany, of Boston, who had $20,000 in bank. When that was gone be deserted her. He next married Miss Mary Dittson, of a Hudson river town. For this he was sentenced to Sing Sing for two years, but secured his release after three ; months. He then dropped the name of i Contri. In 1889, he appeared in London under the name of Dr. Grant, and advertised as a M edalist, ana lectured extensively on mind-curing. Being again involved in scandal, he secretly leit London and re turned to 1 he united btates. He learned that his Hist wife had procured a divorce from him and had gone to live in Chicago. He went there, and it is believed that wbile in that city, he obtained medical degrees from a local dispensary under the name of A. J. Perry, by which name he btcame widely known. He figured conspicuously in the lecture rooms of the West and South as a man of learning and uncommon eloquence. Newspaper notices of bis lectures were found in a scrap book in hia trunk, after his arrest in Clayton, N. J., in March last. It was while out upon a lecture tour that he first met and married the woman who is mown as Kate Ray, his sister. Togetber they conspired to "do up" the large watering places of the country. In the summer of 181 be and bis sister were at Old Orchard Beach, under the name of Dr. Perry. He claimed to be an extremely rich Kngiiebman with untold possessions in Australia. The woman he passed off as his sister, be said al30 possessed great wealth. Among the visitors to the beach was a Miss Emma Kanes, ot St. Thomas, Canada, whom he married in short order. He secured nearly $.", 000 from her and then left her. He proposed to a number of other women and became engaged to a Mrs. Williams, a rich widow of Kennebunk, Maine. The timely interference of friends saved her. At Revere Beach he laid siege to tbe heart of a Miss Riddle, of Manchester, N. II., proposed and was rejected. He visited with his alleged sister Newport, Nantucket, Long Branch, Bar Harbor, Saratoga, Lake Winnipiseogee and resorts in the White mountains. In lhS5, he opened a doctor's office in Boston. He was soon engaged to marry three ladies, and after robbing them of all they bad, he decamped. In March, 183.5, he paid court to Mrs. Annie Bulger, a drcamaker of Brooklyn, and finally promised to marry her. At the same time he was carrying on a similar arraneement with Mary Sturgia, of New York. He Ced on tbe night he agreed to marry both, 4 taking all they pocsessed, even their clothes. He next turned up at Littleton N. H., where he married Müs Lucy Torrey, of Cambridge. This netted him $20,000. After tbat affair, Dr. Grant went into hiding in Clayton, N. J., where some time previously he had purchased comfortable little farm. A f ter he had robbed the Cambridge lady, Dr. Grant as his so-called sister quarreled over the spoils, Tbe doctor went to hia home and Kate went West. Detective Ducey, of Cambridge got onhU track, and after some skillful work, arrested him at Clayton, N. J., early in March. He was taken back to Cambridge and committed to the house of correction to await his trial. On the 2i of April he died. Died En Koute for Hume, FiTTsm-Ro, October 2S. A pathetic story Wis related thil morning by the Pallman conductor of tbe Pan-Handle limited from Cincinnati. A beautiful and refined yourg lady, traveling alone, from Cincinnati to her home at Xenia, Obio, had suddenly died during the night. "Everybody seemed in a good humor," remarked the conductor, "and when I last passed through the ear. I noticed that the young lady was having a gay time. A moment laUr theyoctg lady threw np her arms, cave a slight shudder, and was dead. The
train sped on at the rate of thirty miles an hour and the body of the young lady was not cold when we arrived at Xenia. The young lady's father was at the station to meet her. I told the old man that her body was in the car; that ebe bad died while en route," said the conductor. "Tne old father was horror stricken and so paralyzed by gnef that he had tobe assisted Into the station. The body was removed acd cur tram pulled out. I could not learn the lady's name." THE LEE MONUMENT.
Lajlng the Cornerstone at Richmond Willi Very Impressive Ceremonies. Richmond, Va., October 27. The day opened gloomy and wet with no change in the condition of the weather from that which has prevailed for three days past, and Richmond's big day was ushered in with misty rain which fell steadily, with no indication of cessation. Despite this, however, the people of the city and the many thousands of visitors were early on the streets and by nine o'clock it was plainly evident that Richmond's population for the day was larger than on any previous occasion. At an early hour the sound of martial music was heard in every direction and military, mounted and and afoot, could be seen moving to their various positions preparatory to the formation of the proeescion. General G. W. Custeis Lee owing to his recent illness, was unable to participate in to day's ceremonies, but his brothers. General W. H. K. populary known as "Rooney" Lee and Captain Robert E. Lee are here. The only other immediate members of tbe family are two daughters who are at pretent in Europe. At a few minutes before eleven, tbe procession be jan to move. At the head of the line, fame its Chief Maisbalcf the day, General Wade Hampton, riding side by side with Governor Fil.hugh Lee both superbly mounted. Then followed the Governor's staff in brilliant uniform and the Assistant Marshal. Next in successive order came the Virginia Confederate veterans camps. The veterans of the Maryland line, volunteer infantry of irgt ma and the North Carolina artillery and then all the various civic organisation. The whole made such a display as has never been before seen in Richmond. Dense crowds packed the side walks along the whole route of march and the enthusiasm of tbe populace was shown by almost mceEsant cheers. About tbe time the head of the procession had reached the western corporate limits, near the monument grounds, a steady drizzle of rain again set in and continued eo that tbe programme was cut Bhort by the postponement of the reading of the poem and delivery ot the oiaiion. The corner stone, however, was laid with all tbe impressive masonic ceremonies. Tbe oration will be delivered and the poem read this evening in the hall of the House'of Delegates. Notwithstanding tbe disagreeable weather and the muddy condition of the grounds and the vicinity, the vast field was almost covered with people, the multitude being estimated at from 15.000 to 20,000. The Marine Rand of Wahington, plaved "Dixie," "ritar-Spangled Banner," "Yankee Doodle," and other popular airs, while VetersLP, Grand Lodge of Virginia Masons atd other organizations took the places assigned to them. Among the ex Confederates present who were frequently greeted with i beers and applause as they were recognized by the crowd were: Gen. W. H. F. and Captain Henry Lee, sons of the dead chieftain; Generals Wade Hampton. Joseph E, Johnston, Jabel Rarly, Daniel Ruggles, J. O. Imhoden, Bradley P. Johnson, William McComb, II. L. Page. George H. Stewart, L. L. Lomax, Robert Ransom, Mat Ransom, Kpps Hunton, C. M. Wilcox, W. D. Taliiafero, ex-Governor William Cameron, United States Senator John W. Daniel; also Colonels Chas. I. Venable, Walter II. Taylor and Charles Marshall, of General R. K. Lee's staff. DR. GALBRAITH'S DIPLOMA, The Oua Miira' oiib ol the Hew Superintend Un( t the Insane Hospital. In the volume of "Vital Statistics of Indiana,' Issued by the State Board of Health for the fiscal year ending tctober 31, 1K, is the name of "Thomas Galbraitn, physician, Seymour, Jackkon county." It conveys the Information tbat he is ailowcd'to practice medicine under tbe ten-year clause and without a dip'oma tbat is, that he has never graduated from a medical co'lege. This person is now 8Uerinttudent of the Hospital for the Insane, su-essor to Dr. rietchcr, aa educated phTMCian with a national reputation. The above, from the Journal, is a mean attempt on the part of that organ to create the impression that Dr. Galbraith is not an educated physician, quliCed to fill the Eosition of buperintendent of Indiana ospital for the insane. The intimation tbat he Is not a graduate of a. medical college is maliciously false as tbe Journal could have ascertained by slight inquiry. His license may have been issued under tbe ten-year clause of the medical law, because he had practiced medicine ten years in Jackson County, but he is nevertheless a graduate of a reputable college. In point of medical training and talent Dr. Galbraith is the equal of any man that ever filled the saperintendency of 'the hospital. He graduated at the Obio medical college in 10;, when Dr. Theophilus Parvin, who row occupies a chair in Jefferson College, Philadelphia, was a member of tbe faculty, and cne of his class-mates was Dr. K. 8. Eider, of this city, wbo was Secretary of tbe State Board of Health a few years ago. My diploma is here in my trunk," said Dr. Galbraith yesterday, "and if tbe Journal reporter or anyboJy else waats to inspect it he ts at liberty to do so." Dr. Galbraith not only gradaated from tbe Ohio college, but subsequently spent tbree years in Bellevue Hospital, New York, and afterward traveled abroad, spending some months in the hospitals of Europe.

He succeeded, however, in gaining tbe confidence of Mrs. Sopbronia Miller, an aged lady, who made him her financial agent. He obtained boarding with her for several months, and during the summer ebe bad him arrested charged with criminal assault, but be was acquit tod. Sbe then had him arrested for embezeling $100.

The government proposed to pass to the order of the day, but a motion to tnat ecect was reiected by a vote of 281 to 210. and M Brice's motion was adopted 303 to 1!5.

GORDON IN OHIO.
Georgia's Governor Talks to m Korttiera Andiriii About the South. Cincinnati, October 28. Uen. John B. Gordon, Governor of Georgia, made hia first speech in Ohio to-night, in the Democratic State campaign. It was at the Highland House esplanade to an immense audience. Vindicating the claim of ex-Ksbels to loyalty, be said: "In the great city of Argnsta, on an occasion when we met to do honor to our dead comrades about their graves, to cover tbem with fragrant flowers, I said this pointiBg to the banner of my country, which hung overhead There hangs the flag of this Union; let us honorit-as an emblem of freedom, of equality and of union; remembering that there is not a star on its blue ii eld which is not made brighter by the light reflected from the Southern skies; not a white line in its folds but is made whiter and purer by that South's incorruptible record in office; not one of its crimson stripes tbat is not deeper and richer from the Southern blood Bbed in its defease in every war with foreign powers. "I am not here to talk new doctrines. I want to say to you again that before the guns bad ceased their terrible roar at Appcm&ttox 1 began this kind of talk, and in the South, in the Senate, in Boston, in Charleston, across the Atlantic, everywhere, I have been appealing for peace and unity and concord as the surest legacy for our children to inherit applause. Bat, my friends, I'm afraid I'm talking too long cries of go on, go on. Well I will, and I will come to some more things to talk of to you. Let me mention another charge that has been used with some effect, I presume, in this State; a charge sought to bj tired upun the Northern mind to win votej Agtian the South; Jet us see how mush there is in it. The charge is that we oppressed the colored people, and I have some tremendous things to say about that, will you hear me? cries of yes. "Ihese people were in slavery. How they got there it is not necessary for me to esy to-nigbt; history will tell you about that. We found it in our midst. It came to us as an institution. We love those ne groes. Do you believe that? Let me irive you the facts about it. We love them, and why? They were part of our household. The negro boys on my father's plantation were the playmates of my youth. The only fights that I can recall that I had in my youth were battles for insults, as 1 conceived them to be to my colored play-mates around me. Applause. On my own place to-day out in the country, there is not one white sou), not one. My furniture, my lands, my all, is in tbe hands to-day and has been ever since I have been Governor, and was wbile I was in the Senate, in the hands of colored people. '.Vho are they? My old servitors among then is tbe old 'mama' (pardon tbe expres sion) as we call her. now nearing ninety years of age. Uf.cn her bosom slept seventy j ears sgo tbe mother of my wife, later my wife fcerself, later still every one of my children, later mill my grandchildren. lourgenarafons, tne memory of all hovering around that dear old form. Why, sir, if you could have seen the grieving cf tbe wife of my bosom, to that decrepit old black woman, when she was called to the bedside of tbat old black woman a few months ago, when the old mama was lying ill, the strongest man among you would have been moved to tears. "Tbey have in their possession, these black people, all I have in the world, and I leel as absolutely secure at this moment as though I were down there, watching their every act. How orxes tbat, did we oppress them when tbey were slaves. It was a law as inexora ble as tbe law of the Medes and Persians, tbat the man who treated his slaves un kindly wss debarred decent society. Applause. Is that eo? Well, let us come to tbe proof. We went to war some years ago and some of you will remember sometbirg about it. We had a fight; every body knew if the South was defeated these 6laves would be made tree men and free women, and tbey knew it. They wanted to be free, oh yes, there is no doubt about tbat. They longed for their freedom. Were they oppressed? If tbey had been would not they have struck for their - freedom when they conld? The North enlisted, and was justified in doing it, a few regiments of blacks to fight against us. In the old South, if we had proclaimed their freedom at the beginning of that war, we could have enlisted every one of them to a man, in our defense. Applause. Chicago Has a Murder Mystery. Chicago, October 28.— In a carriage shipped from New Haven, Conn., to Studebaker Brothers, at the Pennsylvania depot, at Adams street, was found this afternoon the body of a murdered man. W. H. Crane was superintending the unloading of a gondola car, upon which was a carriage consigned to Studebakers' wagon factory. Mr. Crane, in looking through the window of the vehicle, was horrified to see, lying face downward across the seat, the body of a man. It was found upon opening the door that the corpse was that of a young man 21 or 22; five feet eight inches in height; slight mustache; light brown beard; dark trousers; soft felt hat; laced shoes and a rubber coat, Under his hat was a bullet hole. In the pockets were found a ticket for a reception and a restaurant check. The former was for an entertainment to be given to-night by Beaver Valley Assembly of Glass Packers No. 10.699 at Workingmen's Hall, Chester, Pa. The check was for 40 cents at "Abel's restaurant." The murder is supposed to have occurred in New York. Chicago, October 28.— B. Lazarus, of Rochester, Pa., telegraphs to-night to the Daily News, that the body found in the car load of wagons which arrived on the Pennsylvania road, this morning, was that of Barney Haran, of West Bridgewater, Pa New Freight Classification.

A box of bones, which proved upon examination to be the skeleton of woman, was found on a Lehigh Valley wild train this morning. Conductor Raymond says ha stopped hia train just outside ol the city limits of
Elroira and that tbe box we nt cv. then. When next h went crr triin at Wavtrly. hefoend it and be con:.U'!es from this that the t lastly freight must have been put on board at E mir, The bones are all dif jointed ana tbe top of tie skull is sawed evenly c. The skeleton, though not much decayed, has theappeas. ance of having laid in the earth for some time. There are no marks on the box which give any clue as to where it came from. The general opinion here is that the skeleton came from some doctor's office or medical institution.
CHICAGO'S MYSTERY. The Body in the Wagon Believed to be That of a Glass-blower. Pittsburg, Pa., October 29.— A clue has been obtained that may lead to the solving of the Chicago freight car mystery. The relatives of Frank Harn, not Haran, as stated last night, are in the city investigating the case. They are positive that the young man was murdered in Pittsburg and the body afterwards placed in the carriage on the car in this city. Frank Carter, a brother-in law of Harn, in an interview this morning, said: I have traced Frank to Pittsburg and everything goes to indicate that he was murdered here and the body being stealthily placed in the carriage on the car, was gotten through to Chicago. Harn boarded with me at my home in Bridgewater. He was a glass blower and worked up to last Saturday evening at the Rochester glass works. He left my home on Sunday afternoon to visit a friend, That was the last that we ever saw of him. I have ascertained positively that he purchased a ticket for Pittsburg and came to this city on the express train. There is no foundation for the theory that Frank was intoxicated. He bore an excellent reputation and lived quietly at my home. I was with him when he purchased the K. of L. ball ticket, and also saw in his possession a meal ticket from Abel's restaurant. The description answers to his appearance. He was twenty-one years of age, a short, heavyset young man, and weighed about 145 pounds. He was light-complexioned and had gray eyes. He did not have a full-grown beard, but as he could raise a very heavy one, his face would be well covered if he did not shave for a week, as was sometimes the case. When he left home he wore a faded black coat and vest and a pair of checked trousers. I can give no theory as to why he should be murdered. He had no quarrel with anyone, and no suspicion attaches to any of his acquaintances. The train arrived from the East about 2 o'clock Sunday afternoon, and was immediately made up for the west. It did not leave until 11.55 that night, however, and in the meantime was side-tracked in the yards at Strawberry Lane, a very long part of Allegheny City. No stop was made between Allegheny City and Alliance, O , so that the body must have been placed in the carriage before the train started, Harn was alive and well at 3 o'clock on Sunday afternoon, and the indications are that he never got as far as the Union station in this city. Chicago, October 29. —The inquest on the murdered man, supposed to be Barney Horan, of Rochester, Pa., who was taken from a Gondola car at tbe Union Depot yesterday morning, was held by Deputy Barrett at the county hospital to-day. Very little was developed to throw further light on tbe mystery of the man's death. Detective Tyrell testified to finding a tuft of human hair in the coupe which was of lighter color and finer than the dead man's. He said the man was certainly in the carriage and killed instantly, as there were no evidences of a struggle. The jury returned a verdict ot death by a pistol shot fired by an unknown hand. A Funeral and a Wedding. Danville, October 22. Special. Today Willis M. Cox, tbiriy years old, unmarried, sten-son of Mr. John O. Wishard, and widely known as a most genial commercial traveler for Indianapolis and Chicago firms, was laid to his final rest after a lingering sickness from paralysis of tbe brain.

WishaM. known as a fuperior singer and aiTable school tcacbtr, formerly teaching in a government Cboctaw school at Polk, Minnesota, will take tbe first degree in matrimony with Miss Minnie Hammond, one of Danville's fairest daughters. A Desperado's End. Montgomery, Ala., October 28.— Dink Buckalew is an outlaw in Chambers County, convicted of murder. He has been at large and has made fame by his tricks to avoid arrest and his boldness. At one time he is said to have met in disguise a posse in search of him and conducted them to a place where he informed them Buckalew could be found. A reward of $400 was offered by the Governor for his arrest. A special from Lafayette says yesterday afternoon two detectives, Scarborough and Brown, went to a house where Buckalew was known to be. As they approached, the outlaw shot Scarborough in the neck and head, killing him. Brown went in the house, and fifteen shots were heard between him and Buckalew. Whether both or neither were killed is not known, as the place is off in the country. A surgeon has gone to the scene. A Royal Eagle shot. . Grf.fm iti.!
