MISCELLANEOUS SUMMARY.

A Texas ranchman has a drove of twenty camels. A colored highwayman has turned out in Pittsburg.

Epicures of Storm Lake, Iowa, eat elk steak at five cents a pound. A Mrs. Tborp, of Foil du Lac, cowhided her husband for slandering her.

A daughter of Robert Toombs, of Georgia, resides in Corry, Penn. "Miss Charlotte Cushman is expected in Boston early in November.

The peach shipments from one county— Marion—in Illinois, this year, will reach 00,000 boxes.

King William'shows what he thinks of the duration of the war by ordering 100,000 sets of furs for his army.

A fruit grower at Belleville, Canada, has had a second crop^of ^raspberries from the same bushes this season.

Another case of poisoning by the mistake of a stupid drug clerk, is supposed to have recently occurred at Pittsburg, Penn.

During the past year nearly 500,000 young cotton-wood shade trees have been planted in the thoroughfares of Denver City, Colorado.

At Washington the marriage of Mr. Rangabe, the Grecian Minister, with a daughter of Daron Gerolt, is considered imminent.

A small boy in Aurora, Illinois, threw a pistol catridge

011

land,

the pavement, and the

explosion drove the ball entirely through his neck. The Detroit Board of Trade, at a recent meeting, following the example of Cleve

Ohio, passed a setot resolutions favorable to the construeton of the proposed Ontario and Erie Ship Canal.

Robert AVild, a resident of Blackhawk county, Iowa, put an end to his life last week while suffering from a lit of the "blues," brought on by the failure of a railroad company to run their line through his property.

A young man named Totreault, was recently arrested, in Canada, on suspicion of having murdered Pierre Durocher, a young man with whom he started on a journey to the States several months ago. The circumstantial evidence against liinl is very .strong.

Alanzo Davis, a lad under fourteen years of age, shot and killed an Indian girl in Napa, California, and the jui^ acquitted him on the ground that he was too young to know right from wrong.

Jeff. Davis has been, I understand, traveling 011 a tour through Ireland. I presmne he went incorj., as there were no "demonstrations" one way or another concerning him across the channel.—London Correspondence Chicago Tribune.

The Tarboro Carolinian professes to have unearthed a man one hundred and forty-three years old, who has survived seven wives, having lost his last one about sixty years ago, and now wants, to marry again.

It is stated of a man who recently committed suicide by taking prussic acid, in Buffalo, that for some time previous he had been experimenting with that poison upon insects of various kinds, for the purpose, as is now supposed, of observing its eifects upon animal lifo.

The Irish in California sometimes allow themselves to be easily affected by floating rumors. The Ilibernicon Bank, at San Francisco, was recently subjected to the trying oi'dcal of a "run," through some foolish rumor of its incapacity to pay 100 cents to the dollar. This makes the third time that it has suffered from a similar in. convenience.

A stage-struck damsel at Rochester, recently sent a note to Miss Maggie Mitchell, asking her for a position in her troupe. An idea of her ability may be formed from the following: "the People around Where live Say have a good voice if you think AVhat say is foolish send some one Whith a Note if Possible or send some one and toll mo Wer you Board at all Events Jet me hero something from You."

Tho San Francisco papers have commented rather severely on the conduct of Thomas Mooney, of Mooney's Bank. According to their account, although he went there unknown, and absolutely •without any antecedents to recommend 3iiin to the public credit and esteem, he contrived by demagogism not only to ruin the confidence but the fiduciary trusts of very considerable portion of the community.

Rough's Apostrophe to Water. The following most eloquent "Apostrophe to Water," by Paul Denton, a Methodist preacher,#ia used by John B. Gough in his temperance lecture as argument. It is indeed a consecutive burst of the beautiful, thrilling and truthful passages, such as can rarely be found in such words: "Look at this, ye sons of earth -Behold it! It is a beverage that was brewed by the hands of the Almighty Himself! Not in a simmering still of smoking tires, choked with poisonous gasses and surrounded by the stench of sickening odors and rank corruption, does our Father in Heaven prepare the precious essence of life, the pure, cold water, but in the green glade and glassy dell, where the deer wanders and the child loves to play, there God brews it and down in the valley, where the fountains murmur, and the rills sing, and high upon the mountain tops, where the storm clouds brood, and the thunder crash, and far away on the wide sea, where the hurricane howls music and the big waves roll the chorus sweeping the march of God, there he brews it—that beverage of health giving water. And everywhere it is a thing of beauty glimmering in the summer rain, shining in the icy germ, till the trees all seemed to be. turned into living jewels spreading a veil ovythe setting sun, or in white gauze around the midnight moon sporting in the cataracts, sleeping in the glaciers, knacking in the hail shower folding its curtain softly round the windy world and weaving the many colored iris—whose warp is the rain drops of thS earth—whose woop is the sunbeams of heaven all checked over with celestial flowers by the mystic hand of reflection, still always it is beautiful—that blessed life-water.

No poison bubbles on its brink its foam -brings no sadness or murder.

CATHERINE FIELD has 110 engagements. and we are of the opinion, if she broke 95 of them, the one recipient of her faith would be the only person entitled to commisseration.

NEW YOHK, Oct. 20.—The Tammany Congressional Convention met to-night, and made the following mominations Fourth District, Morgan Jones Fifth District, W. P. .Roberts Sixth District, S. S. Cox Seventh District, Smith Ely Eighth District, James Brooks Ninth District, Fernando Wood.

The Republican County Convention met this evening. It had already been determined by the General Committee not to put any ticket in the field. The members of the convention passed resolutions appointing a committee of 21, who are authorized to combine with any organization outside of Tammany looking towards the election of any candidate or candidates opposed to the last named organization.

Marshal Sharp declares that the ballot box shall be kept pure at the coming election, if bayonets have to be used to accomplish it.

Admiral Stringham hoisted his flag for the first time

At Bruce's type foundry, close by, the same phenomenon appeared. On 14th street the shock appeared partqpularly severe in the public schools, and the scholars became panic stricken, thinking that the foundation of the building.was crumbling.

On the water the shock was felt on North River, particularly at the tidal wave. The usual accompaniments of the phenomenon was not noticeable. The police headquarters distinctly experienced the shock throughout the building, shaking doors and windows. Also, the furniture shook very perceivably at the Grand Central Hotel, ten stories high, and also at the Revere House, an Broadway.

The wave, as noticed here, appears to have moved from the southeast to the northwest, long after the vibrations had ceased. The frightened women and children stood grouped together, fearful to enter their dwellings. The vibrations lasted irom fifteen to twenty seconds, and not sufficiently severe to endanger the buildings in the district visited.

riere this forenoon. The customary salute was fired. NEW YORK, Oct. 20.—This morning the residents of the eastern side of the city witnessed a startling sensation. About 11:15 the large area, taking Center street and part of Pearl, thence easterly toward east Broadway, and different streets in that section, were distubed by a rumbling and shock of earthquake. Among the residents of this neighborhood, Frank Leslie's men and the workmen in the Clipper office, felt an erratic morion of their cases, and became alarmed at the building shaking from top to bottom. In East Broadway aud Division streets the shocks were most severe, large tenement houses being vacated and the tenants appeared terror stricken at the terrible catastrophe. At Conner's type foundry the- building shook so violently that the inmates rushed out to the street and refus°d to enter for sometime.

alarm was manifested at

11:30 in various parts of Brooklyn, by a sudden shock, which caused a general shaking up in many quarters of the city. The effects of the earthquake were distinctly visible on the heights. Dr. Spear, on Montague street, while sitting in the parlor, states that the rocking chairs moved, and a large picture on the wall swung to and fro. h-

WASHINOTON, Oct. 20.—Some of the cheese manufacturers of New York have made a moderate request of the Revenue Bureau, and as it interests all manufacturers, it is well to note the law taxing the sale of cheese: Two dollars for every $1,000 above $5,000 per annum. The tax must be paid quarterly, at the rate of $5,000 exemption per annum. This makes the exemption $1,250 for each quarter.

The law went into effect on the 1st of April, and was repealed by the revenue law passed at the last session of Congress, aud which went into effect on the 1st of October, this being the middle of the £ear. They now ask to be allowed in the returns of sales for the quarter ending September 30, an exemption for that quarter, and for the two quarters during which the law will not be enforced, that is, up to April 1, 1871. This would give them the exemption of $3,750 in one quarter, when the law says it shall be $1,250 per quarter. The request was declined.

There is much speculation in the city as to what changes will be produced in the heads of the Bureau by Delano taking charge of the Interior Department It is generally conceded that Mr. .Fisher, Commissioner Patents Parker, Commissioner of Indian Affairs and Van Arnam, Commission of Pensions, will remain. It is understood that Assistant Secretary Wilson, Commissioner General of the

Land Office, and Judge Metcalf, Chief Clerk, will most likely retire. A circular regarding the liabilities and duties of the cigar makers' Internal Revenue laws, will be issued in a day or two from the Treasury Department. It contains many useful suggestions to this branch of manufacturers.

David Whitemere, of Worcester, Mass., has applied for an extension of his patent on machine for pearing apples, dated February 17, 1857.

William D. Cooleridge has been appointed an Examiner in the Appraiser's Department at Boston.

Commissioner Wilson of the General Land Office has issued instructions to Surveyor General Retstere, to an observance of an Executive order dated 14th inst., modifying military reservations at Camp McDonald. The new reservation embraces all land in the Valley Qneen's River for a distance of two miles below the Flag Staff. A hay reservation is also attached for the use of the garrison.

Very recently a wonderful discovery has been made, rather by accident than scientific experiment, to produce from an unpromising state chlorite state containing magnetite yielding from 30 to 40 per cent, metal, and that of poor quality, a pure steel of admirable quality and remarkably uniform in character, by the ordinary puddling process, being made with middling pig iron in an ordinary reverberating furnace. This has been known for along time to exist in great abundance in the Cardossa Valley, in the township north of Cardossa, in York county, Pennsylvania, in a range of rounded sloping hills. But little success and no profit has attended its conversion into iron heretofore.

The result of the working seems to be similar to those of the Ellerehausen process, so far as is understood. All the specimens which have been forwarded (o the General Land Office from that locality, contains Silician, 38 per cent. alluminum, 3percent. magnesia, 5 per cent. potash, 2 per cent. magnetic iron, 40 per cent. peroxide of iron, 10 percent. lime, 2 per cent. This discovery seems to supercede the Bessimer process, whereby excellent steel is produced with

110

risk of

failure, and at a reasonable co3t. It is to be hoped that equally important

discov

eries in relation to the mixture and manipulations of ores will take their rise from this.

PROVIDENCE, R. I., Oct. 20.—The Republican Convention met in this city yesterday to nominate a candidate for Congress. Representatives from the extreme districts of the State were prominent.
