Leggett, father of tbe Cornell student who was killed by falling from a precipice last week, writes to the Washington Star that he is convinced that bis son's death Governor Straw of New Hampshire, who was one of the judges of the baby show at tbe state fair last week, was surprised Saturday evening by finding oa his doorstep an infant two months old. A match at chess for 10, 000 a side has been made between Dk-k Pearce and Mr. Gallagher of Austin, Nev. Five thousand dollars a side forfeit bas been pat up, aad the match will come off six weeks from aext Christmas. Colonel BoutweH, formerly proprietor of a Montpelier hotel, was called upon to testify at tbe Kqnor prosecutioas there recently, and being asked if he knew of any liquor being sold in Montpelier, bluffly replied that he had sold rum to eight of tbe twelve jurymen then impaneled.

He was not questioned further. was entirely accidental and in no way connected with hazing. He sirs the young auto had Asked and received the consent of his parents to join the secret society, and continues Mortimer was there of his own free will, and was with his owa chosen friends. In the ceremonies of that awful night those students bad in view Mortimer's pleasure and profit, and had no more expectation of danger or accident than he had. I cannot, therefore, find it in my heart to specially blame these young mea nor Cornell university.

Amorg the first who hastened to the relief of tbe Shreveport sufferers wa3 a beautiful young lady of Philadelphia, who was willing to brave even the terror of death to give aid and comfort to the helpless victims of a terrible scourge. She was Agnes, the daughter of a United States naval officer, deceased, and was adopted by 8. and Agnes Arnold of Philadelphia when scarcely three years old. At Shreveport her noble bravery and devotion gained for ber the title of Angel Agnes. One night, wh'le walking with a sick child in ber arms, she fell down a stairway and fractured her spine, and died in great agony.

throaea. Shall we have that lecture as to the rights of men A EXAELaas (kxxros ha been discovered at Banker's nulls, near Lewhrton, Me. The skeleton is that of a woman, and tt bebeved to be that of Mary Elisabeth Lowell, who mysteriously disappeared from Lewiston in June, 1370, Friday, James Lowell, the husband of the missing woman, was arrested in Lowell, on charge of her murder. The case is a very singular one. We Bid parttcubArs in the Portland Press of Monday.

In Jane, 1S70, it appears, Mrs. Lowell was doing housework for Mrs. Blood, a boarding-house keeper on one of the Lewis ton corporations. Her husband did not room with her, though be Came to visit her frequently. QTbey both bad the tempers of devils, and quarrels were frequent.

Sunday, Jane l'Ah, 1370, Lowell called for his wife to take her to rida. After that she was never seen in Lewistoa. Lowell called at herL.boerding-place next day aad said he left her at 10 o'clock the night before. He didn 't know what bad become of her, but surmised she bad run away with a circus employe, of whom, he said, she seemed to be fond. Some three weeks after he called for her clothes; but Mrs.

Blood refused to give them up. Ia a few months be married a Mary Turner and left Lewiston. Kot long since he wrote to his wife's mother Mrs. Barton of Holdenj, say-mg Lizzie (his wife) wished to come aad live with him again, but that he shouldn't permit it. Mrs.

Blood and other women who knew the missing woman think the remnants of dress found on the skeleton are portions of the garments worn by Mrs. Lowell on the night of the Sunday ride. The day after tbe dwappearaace some of the corporation girls picked up the following letter Tell Jimmy that be may bave all my clothes, for I am going where I shall never see bun agaia. I am sorry I have done as I bave. Give ail my things to Jimmy, for I am going where he'll never see me again.

Tell (a young lady was aamed to kiss Jimmy three tunes for me. Lrzzv. It is now said that this letter Is not in Mrs. Lowell 's handwriting, and that she ad ways signed her name Lizzie. Her sister had a letter shortly after the first one, bearing the same signature, and asking her to go and get her things in Lewis ton and sead them to her.

This letter had neither date nor address. Some months before the finding of the skeleton Mrs. Burton mother of the missing woman; wrote as follows to a lady in Lewiston: I dreamed that I saw Lizzie in the woods near Barker's mills, on her knees, begging for life. Her bands were uplifted and she was saying, "Don't kill me, don't kill me;" but it seemed to me that the somebody killed her and buried her there. The skeleton was found in tbe place indicated and it is suggested that this Mrs.

Burton, among others, ought to be investigated She cannot be suspected, of course, of complicity in the murder of her daughter; but ber dream may have been the result of some valuable facts not heretofore considered by ber of any importance MISCELLANEOUS.

But we are determined that bis silence shall not longer delay the trial of a bng rucceraful ring, wbicb under bi came bas fattened at tb public crib tbee many yearn.

We shall beat the cover in which the game concealed, ftart it and following with a determination which will not be cheated of its prey, if possible, be in at the death. THE WAIEfC-WORKS RlX(i. "We have charged that the water-works commisMon bas become political ring wbkb will enteT this canvass ia the interpst of tbe Democratic candidate for senator, Jarvis Lord. We have referred to the issue of $3,900,000 of bonds. In plain violation of htw and to the recent employment of large numbers of political shysters of both parties on the works as proofs of the charge.

Ko justification of the over-issue bas been attempted or will be attempted. The amecded waterworks bill expressly limits tbe isue to three It makes tbe city treasurer custodian of tbe bonds and declares that be shall negotiate them as fast as required to meet expenditures on the works and no faster. So far from complying with thee provisions, the commissioners made "ar-" rarsreme-nts" for negotiating the bonds with New York brokers, threw them on the market ia lump, and left the funds realised from the sale, to a large amount, in the bands of tbe metropolitan brokers, at a low rate of interest. Could more explicit proof be furnished of the perversion of power on tbe part of this overshadowing commission. So far from tbe truth is it that the bonds were sold only as fast as wanted, thfit there ia now in the banks of this city nearly obtained with gTeat difficulty from the Jv'ew ToTk firm which disposed of bonds in that amount over and above the requirement of the crrtnmissdoners.

Of the above sum. ia deposited ia Jarvis Lord's bank. Why did tbe commission secure these ready funds if it was not to get power into its bands which would make it a controlling force in this city and district. We charged that the commission would ue the powers which it has thus illegally acquired ia furthering tbe election of Jarvis Lord. Why We will give tbe reason.

Ills infiuencc is wanted in the legislature to secure tbc passage of a special act which bas elr ady been drawn up and has been seen. Its object is to provide for the payment of the interest on the water works bonds bv a TAX OX CITY PROPERTY INSTEAD OF BY THE RECEIPTS FOR WATER RATES. In other words, all property owners on streets where pipes are to be laid will be taxed to meet the interest, yiKer thry the voter or not. We ak working men who are already suffering from the weight of taxation, and many of whom have been thrown out of work, to consider the new burden which this commission Intends to place upon them. If they are unfortunate enough to own a little borne on a street wherein water pipes are laid, they will be taxed though tbey have not the means to pay for pipe in their houses, and could not afford to pay rates.

Tbey will be forced to pay the same as their wealthier neighbor, who has no difficulty in running the water all over bis premises and can pay for it without feeling the expense. We ask railroad men whose wages bare just been reduced ten per cent, if they are ready to submit to tbe tax which will be placed on their bomcs if tbe water works commission is allowed to carry out prattle, hi eirtt ecewrb.

We never beard a smoking-car called by that name before, and really it seems to us that ft is "Mwieserved. Bat what bas Mr.

Murray to say for himself I At thx saorrr nxrrrxo of army offi-wrs at Toledo there was much kissing, and a Toledo reporter kept accurate count. General Sherman, It seems, kissed the most babies thirty-four in all and General Grant stood second in tbe list. General Custer kissed the larger number of "httle girls" and 'ladies" forty-three of the former and sixty -seven of the latter but waa not partial to tbe babies. General Sheridan was second on tbe ladies' Est, while Generals Grant and Sher man were far down tbe list. The youngest of the generals here mentioned was Custer, and the next youngest was Sheridan and we are to attribute their success, probably, to their ability to get around.

And, aa we bave before insinuated, Mrs. Sheridau, Mrs. Cus ter and several other ladies hundreds of miles away. Katt Stoddahd was removed from her old quarters in the Raymond street jail to make way for Lncette Myers, and she is exceed ingly indignant about it. She regards Lu-cette with not the slightest friendly feeling, and sbe says she will never be satisfied until she gets her owa quarters back again, thereby dispossessing that singular lady.

she argues, am a witness as well as Lucette Myers. Tbe only difference is that I am a witness against myself, and she is a witness against no one. so far as I know. There is logic in that, certainly; and if Kate wishes to get up a reputation as an insane woman she wul present no such unanswerable argument. She at present occupies apartments with a Mrs.

Merrigan and her child. Her temper has lately taken fitful tarns. At one time sbe embraces Mrs. Merrigan 's child with warm affection, and at another repels him with disgust. Wc ask told that "Rise up, William Allen, 'is the people's song in Ohio just now, and it runs about aa follows fir-! all ye rural roosters, Now Is yonr time to efgr; r'-r Alley's ejected g-yr-Kraor of O-h-i-o The Democratic party's dead.

There is in this something of the fun of old-time campaign verses and yet, viewing it as a result of the election of William Allen, there are not a few who wul rejoice with exceeding great joy that the rest of the Democratic ticket was not elected. Advance natures of Joaquin Miller's new volume of poems, Songs of the Sun lands, have been examined by the Boston Advertiser, and that paper is not greatly impressed with them. The friends of the poet, it says, will look in vain through the new volume for those proofs of greatness which the "Songs of the Sierras led them to Aad then the Advertiser says: Mr.

Miller undoubtedly possesses poetical genius of an intense though not of a very original order, and there are passages in some of bis later poems of great power aad beauty but be is crude, careless, uneven and uncouth, aad sometimes so strangely negligent in giving intelligent expression to his ideas that one can almost give credit to the story told concerning the original publication in the Overland Monthly of the longest poem in the forthcorning volume, The Isles of the Amazons. Mr. Miller's copy" is very sprawling, and it is reported that a blank sheet, which had accidentally come in contact with aa undried page of manuscript, was unintentionally sent to the compositor by the poet, who was surprised to find ia the proof-slips a stanza entirely new to bim, but quite as good as any of ita legitimate companions, which, upon inquiry, be found had been set up from the interpolated sheet ot blotted paper. Moreover, in Songs of the Sonlands, Mr. Miller's debt to Byron, Swinburne and Rossetti is disagreeably prominent, some of the lines reading like deliberate parodies of one or another of these authors.

What, for instance, could be better aa an illustration of Mr. Swinburne's style than this In tbe pisee where the rrrtnly reposes. Under wbere a rccht is a wroag; I bare memories noher tban rose. Sweet echoes more sweet Uiaa a sons'. Mr.

Miller ought to be above such servile imitation as this, for he has enough merit of his own to give value and interest to such of bis com positions as be chooses to spend a reasonable amount of thought and labor upon. But be is writing too much, father the eacoethet desire to keep a goodly balance at bis banker's, urges him to put upon paper a great deal that will die young spite of himself and the Rossettis. The project for having hot water in the canals, laid before the senate committee on transportation, puts the Tribune in ecstacies. "The plan, says that paper, "is simple, practical and beautiful. It consists of two boilers and 4,000 feet of steam pipe to the mile, is estimated to cost a boat two millions to begin with and from six to nine hundred thousand dollars per annum to keep it op, and it is believed will keep the canal open all winter, bringing verdure to the tow-path, prosperity to the boatman, tolls to the treasury and grain to Albany.

And there are other advantages: If any one doubts the feasibility of it, let him tke a tea-kettle of water and bund a fire under it. It will be found that the are keeps the water warm, and that while in that condition it cannot freeze. If this ia true in the case of the tea-kettle, why not in the case of tbe "canal I Then think of the ameliorations of hot water. With soap how efficacious upon the beaming countenance ot the mule -driver. To the buindreas of the gondola what a blessing to the cook in tbe caboose what a boon.

How easy to drop ia the bubbling bosom of the deep, in the sim- Ehcity of a bushel basket, the tear-compel-ng onion, the bursting tuber, and tbe high-toned cabliage, and after towing them a suitable time in the tepid waters of tbe great commercial artery, to rescue them ail ready for the table, boiled at the expense of the nation, for the hardy mariners who drive the boisterous mule or plow the boiling seas. Then, too, in the mauer of eggs, when nigbt and temriest come on and winds whUUe through tbe rigging, and the pilot damns the tarry tophghts of the mule, aad the mule surges wildly along the tow-path: then when the provisions are exhausted, and the mole-driver and the mule east lots to see which shall turn cannibal and eat the other, the storm-to? sed canal-boat can lay to ia boiling water. Hard-boiled eggs and the peril is passed. Ah, blessed tboughtl What boilings of vegetables, aad eggs, aad corned beef, and occasionally, perhaps, a sequestered ham, will the Erie tow-path witness when the boding water begins to run, and the weary cooks enter into an appreciation of ita economy of wood and coaX The inventor will be blessed from forecastle to main -top, from truck to keelson, from mule-bridle to I udder-tip.

Many a time and oft bas the unhappy visitor to the opera found his entire view of the stag cut off by one of these atrocious specimens of female adornment.

Jarru Lord, bo asMjpiee, or rather his partner in the job, secured the passage of the special act by wbiib the extra compensation tu Iockv1t-d. Attorney -Ctieral Barlow is now suing for the money and with every prosjiect of recovering it.

The remaining funis in the above lint are all of the same nature; all were obtained orrr a.tel tfrne the evntract prur by lobbying special acts through the Kfisla-ture. The attorney general is engaged in the Herculean taiik of restoring these sum. to the treasury, from which tbey were ob-tained by fraud. Ourudc of these suita, there are no less than tbree now pending against tbc man ho occupies the second place in the ring. Gcorjre Di Lord.

He is sued in the first lare for ibe penalty, to which be is liable, for not taking care of section 14, which be bad contracted to keep in repair. He was paid per year for the work which be heglected so utterly that will cot nore than pay for removing the mud alone which ha accumulated and CUed up ihe priam.

Their agtcts in every ward and town dirtribute a liberal share of the plunder obtained from the state treasu nry, and it these hangers-on and the gen eral rtttipit-nu of the ring bounty who swell ibe ranks adberenU. To ditU sotnewbal further on the bead of the Qrm, the candidate for senator in person it its arris Lord, although Mud gelt waa the ot-lettaihie party, who for five year hefd the repair contract iainn.xlu!e:y of tiis city, fir which be was given a yer, wnen not fio.tn.Hj waa expended by him.

Shall It Be Interpreted by Contraries Borne of our contemporaries who bave seen tbe letter of Jarvis Lord declining to run for senator this fall bave come to the conclusion that be don't know what he means, or bis Democratic constituents don't understand tbe meaning of the English language. The senator iusiala be cannot run; he assigns two reasons, either ef jaramiunt which impel him to the "determination not to run.

A certain individual osce prom-ied positively to be at a special gathering, but did not appear, and a friend volunteered to make excuses. He said there were fifty reasons why tbe gentleman was not present and the first was he was dead. The forty-nine other reasons the meeting declined to hear. Mr. Lord bas two reasons, either of which is which means, according to Webster, that ctlher i tuperior to iiH other.

In tbe fall of 1872, after 3lr. Lord had served two years in the senate, he was talked of for a second term. He therefore tnncunccd to the public that he could not, and would not serve. This statesman ia a letter-writer, and tbe only objection critics find with him as a model is his uniformity of style. But old Bourbons, Tammany scholars, trained in the ring, don't object to this sameness.

Tbey always liked the style of Tweed. They like the style of Jarvis Lord. He knew they did, and so he wrote a letter to the Democratic convention of 1S71 of the declining order. We give an extract from that epistle, and also from the one written this fall, to show that the writer in bis recent effort has lost none of his vigor and positiveness in the way of declining. And yet his friends cannot understand him.

After the letter of October, 1871, was read to the convention, that body at once proceeded to put Mr. Lord in nomination, and immediately thereafter the senator appeared in convention and told the delegates that he had sent them a letter declining the nomination, which he eom'dertd contained rea-" tons that tttre mtisfaeicrg aad all-tujficient But if the letter was not suScient he would accept." And he accepted.

The style and phraseology of the letter of 1873 is much like that of 1871; but he has improved in positiveness ia the latter epistle, and now asserts that his physi-" cians pronounce a emUinuanoe of tueh Berriee dangeron to my kit life." He was too far away, being in Albany, to walk into the convention Ibis year and eat his words as in 1871, but when be returned a few days after his nomination and was interviewed by the Union, he said he supposed he had said enough, but asked time to deliberate to determine his duty to himself and the people." Two years ago he could not accept, but immediately thereafter did take the nomination. It was then a game of deception his friends knew he wanted the nomination and would accept. 3lr. Bowman, the chairman of the convention this year, knew he would accept, and so asserted. Did Bowman want to kill his friend Not a bit of it.

He knew that the life dodge was all gammon, but tbe game was to be played ia that way. And it waa played. If the senator was in a dying condition, the astute chairman of tbe county convention was "not sensible of it." Jarvis Lord is running for Senator, aad every appliance that money and intrigue can bring to bear will be used to secure Ids election. Tbe contest has commenced. WESTCHESTER, THIRD DISTRICT.

The Albany Journal, in noticing nominations for members of assembly, says: James W. listed has been renominated by acclamation for member of assembly from tbc third district of Westchester. He bas represented this district now for "five years, and has been so watchful, active and successful in managing the ira-" portant interests of his constituents that it is not surprising they have come to regard "his return as almost indispensable to their welfare. Few men are so well qualified "for legislative service. General Hosted "bas been one of the foremost members during his whole period of service and at the next session he will take a more "prominent rank fiaa ever.

CURRENT TOPICS. Asd sow, by the way, as to Jarvis Lord's acceptance or declination Fuz's OH06T. it said, is on a visit to New York and we shall be not all surprised to team that it has been trying to bribe Pat Logan. We cast beak the uncertainty surrounding the fate of our old friends Carl Schura and John Cochrane; but where now is Jarvis Lord!

POLITICAL. 2 Since tbe Ohio election the western Democratic newspapers proclaim Senator Tborman as the "coining man. Samuel C. Cobb is mentioned as a candidate for mayor of Boston, Mayor Pierce having accepted the nomination for con gress. The claims of R.

M. T. Hunter, to be tbe conservative leader of Virginia are re pudiated by some of the conservative newspapers. New Hampshire is already beginning to talk about her gubernatorial canvass, although the election will not be held until aext March. The expenses of the Pennsylvania constitutional convention up to November 1st win be 475, 000, leaving $25, 000 unexpended.

Tuesday the article oa the legsHature was under discussion The Democrats of Texas are trying to make political capital of Governor Davis's consenting to release the savages Santanta and Big Tree. The frontiersmen do not look: upon that act as one of humanity. The Chicago Inter-Ocean enumerates the several "parties" now in the field in that city as follows: Tbe Law and Order party, the Independent Citizens party, the "Leading Citizens" party, the Hesing-O'Ha-ra party, tbe Grand Pacific Hotel party, the Sherman House party, the White-Jussen Gazette party, the Juseen-Gazette-Blakeley party, the Sunday Wine and Beer party, the Committee of Seventy party. A political directory would seem to be a disideratum in that city. Things were affecting at Iowa City on election night.

The Press man corralled Brainard of the Republican, the postmaster and his partner in a aie-brigade saloon, sing -ins: I want to be a aranser.

And anon, bis partner, a nice youog man, with gcod voice, joined in Beneatb tbe tall tomato tree 1' li swing the glittering- he And smile the wiid As be skips er the snow. When the postmaster continued I've bought myself a O'oham rem And a rray alpaca eow A iock-cutco 0a-e ornnx hedge And a patei.i-featb.er piow. 1 here really appears to be some reason for the statement that Colonel Hughes, the Republican candidate ia Yuinia, is ineligible.

The constitution of Virginia prohibits any person who has been principal or second in a duel from voting or holding office in the state. It is proved, so it is now said, that Hughes did carry a challenge in July, ISM. The new law went into operation in January, 1370; so that Colonel Hughes's offence comes within it. Be had previously fought a duel in North Carolina, and bis opponents in the nominating convention used tha fact against him. But it was shown that the duel took place before the new constitutional provision was in force.

Probably this event will make the country for the first time aware that Virginia had incorporated such a provision ia her constitution. It is a most ingenious, aad may prove an effective remedy against dueling, inasmuch as politics is peculiarly an attractive field for the ambitious southerner. CONTEXI'ORAIil OPINiejt.

The Troy Press says. The Graphic is bound to persevere ia its trans-Atlantic balloon project. iisha Waters bas prepared a new material for the construction of a balloon. It is made of silk with a very th'n coating of rubber, and over this thin tifau paper to prevent the rubber from sticking when the sides of the balloon meet. This will do away with all oils and varnishes and make an ezceedinely light and durable balloon.

The Graphic company is enthusiastic over Mr. Waters project, and after inspecting samples bas ordered a small balloon for Donaldson to experiment aad play with this winter, aad if the fabric stands the test the ocean voyage will be attempted again next spring.

The Philadelphia Press says: Some one having revived the lamentable truism that literary women are seldom beautiful that their features, and especially their foreheads, are more or less masculine, a recent writer points out some exceptions, among them Miss London, whose forehead was essentially feminine, and who was exceedingly pretty. Mrs. Stanton, likewise, ia a pretty woman, but Miss-Anthony aad Mrs. Livertnore are both plain.

Maria and Jane Porter were women of high brows and irregular features, as was also Miss Sedgwick. Annie Dickinson has a stroag, masculine face; Kate Field has a good-looking, though by no meaas pretty one, aad Mrs. Stowe is thought to be positively homely. Alice and Phoebe Cary were both plain ia features, though their sweetness of disposition added greatly to their persoual appearance. Margaret Fuller had a splendid hed, but her features were irregular.

Charlotte Bronte had wondrously beautiful dark-brown eyes and a perfectly shaped head. Jnha Ward Howe is a tine-looking woman. Laura Holloway resembles Charlotte Bronte. Neither Mary Booth nor Marion Har land can lay claim to handsome faces, while Miry Clemmer Ames is just as pleading in features as her writings are graceful I SIN ESS.

That calamitous result shall not take place, if a thorough and unsparing revie-w of the courses Into which the com-mbiqnt-m have run, can prevent it. THESE HIST BE NO There are times when it will not do to be indifferent. Neglect of duty is sometimes a crime, and oftea great evils come upon us through negligence. Tbe people of this state feel safe under the present ad ministration, and if that feeling of safety leads them to apathy and indifference ia regard to the coming election, therein may be our real danger.

If the people are satisfied with our Republican state ogteers, they should put forth every effort to keep them, or men like them, in office. We have an excellent governor in this state; he has been efficient, devoted to the public interest, and bis action has been every way judicious. His administration meets the approval of all good citizens. To make it effective in all respects tbe governor should be fully sustained by tbe other branch of the government.
