Bomb of the grain shippers are drawing comfort from tho rumors afloat that East-bound rates are to be reduced at the coming meeting of th High Joint Executive Committee. however, have any seemingly good grounds on which to base inch a belief. Within the last week rates-by the water routes have been advanced, and the probabilities are that they will go still higher.

-Then there is nothing to induce railroad managers to reduce rates, as, with the Inst two reductions, the price-of grain tumbled in the same proportion, consequently there was no visible Increase tn business, nor would there likely be should another redaction be made. There waa much opposition to reducing rates when the last reduction was made, and It is slated that the opposition bas gathered strength rather than lost ground since that date; and, what la more, present rates leave only a fair margin to the through lines, and so well have the High Joint Committee, under the direct Ion of Commissioner Fink, got rate matters in hand that they will not look on and allow any one of the through lines to carry property at a loss; so that, taken as a whole, the belief that rates are to be reduced rests on a slim basis, and It la almost a sure thing that no redaction will be made.

Among th new applications of the principle are a baggage and freight check for the Pittsburg Southern, abowlng the nature of articles, amount paid, and the shipper's half forming a check or receipt to delivered on receipt of th good at "destination.

Columbus, May 19, 1880. The other day over In Athens, dropped In on a neat of" irreconcilable, wbo said soma vary bard thing against certain high and mighty personages, the which I carefully treasured up, and in due time spread before the reader of tbe Exquikek.

Toes bard things were said 9y Republicans, and bad reference to eeVtaln leaders In the Republican party, a sort of family quarrel, aa it were, in which, with the license afforded a correspondent, I took a hand by making publle the statement of tb aggrieved ones, Tb result has convinced me of the truth of tbe saying tbst "one story's good enough till the other Is told for to-day I beard from the other side, and In order to deal Impartially with both, I hasten to lsy tbe contradiction before Exquiber readers. In order to a better understanding of the case, it will be well to specify some- of' the charges made through tbe Enquirer by these Athens County Implacables. They charged first that Charles H. Grosvenor, who bad been a bolter and a kicker, and not been by any mean a good Republican, and was not a man ot Influence, or a representative man at borne, had succeeded In getting tbe favor of Governor Foster, snd was using bis influence with bim to control tbe appointments to state offices ot bis fellow-bolters, to the injury of the regular Republicans of tbe county. Tbey said that Grosveuor bad obtained a good slice of the public fat for himself, and then set about fixing his friend, and charged that he Was Instrumental in having Foster break bis pledged word to appoint Colonel George W.

Baker Resident Superintendent of tbe Athena Insana Asylum, and appoint a bolter named Simeon H. Pickering. Tbey said that th secret of Grovenor's influence over Foster was that their methods in politics were similar, and alike disreputable. Tbey called Foster an ingrate, and threatened that Athens County Republicans would slaughter him if he ever came up again seeking their votes, and they charged Urosvenor with being a bolter, trickster, wire-puller, hypocrite, and a bad citizen generally. They claim, also, that Foster was counted In at the Convention as a delegate at large, and that Grosvenor-only secured bis selection as an Elector by a trick, and made divers other charges against Foster, Grosvenor and others, which I detailed in my Athens letter.

Since coming to Columbus I have made a call on Governor Foster and obtained his side of the story. My call was made while a couple of Athens County men were in to see bim about appointments, and on their departure the subject waa easily broached. 1 asked tbe Governor If be bad read the letter, and His Excellency, wbo Is a constant reader ot the Enquirer, replied that be bad, and added: "Those Athens County people are a queer set; they give me more trouble than any other county in the Btate. I have tried my best in making appointment to deal squarely with both sides, but it seems I can't satisfy them. They are a fnnny set, and last fall wben I was making the campaign each aide tried to force me into their fight, and I angered both by keeping out ol it." "A to their statement concerning you and Grosveuor I suggested Inquiringly.

"Oh, as to the statements in that letter," re- flied the Governor. "I will say that tbey are ncorrect." I asked him to specify the Incorrectness, and be took op tbe paper and read through the letter, commenting on tbe charges seriatim. Said be: StewartGrosvenors father-in-law) was not an applicant for the Penitentiary, but for the Athens Asylum. Grosvenor never applied to me for the position I gave him, but I felt that be would feel bad over my rejecting two appointments be recommended, and I tendered htm the position of Director of tbe Orphans' Home, lie hadnt expected It, and was very mueh gratified wben 1 gave it to him. Of coarse it would not have done to have then his law an appointment, as two appointment in one family would have been rather a crowding ofthe limit, so I had to let Stewart go.

"Colonel Baker was not an applicant for the position of ResldentSuperintendent, although his friends had applied for it for him. I knew tbat Baker was opposed to the Grosvenor crowd, but I thought be was a pretty good man, and would have appointed bim, and promised his friends to do so, but be tele- replied me, declining. It bad been my in order to harmonize matters, to give eacb faction there an appointment. I proposed giving one to Grosveuor, and one to uk.F tw, whAi HaIta riAnllhMl tL snrkiled my Piaus. ricnu, waa me, but not by Grosvenor, for Grosvenor opposed hi appointment, and, after some investigation, I appointed bim.

Pickering was notoneotthe Grosvenor bolters last fail, but voted the regular ticket, although sympathizing with Grosvenor." Coming, then, to the bitter talk against him Mr. Foster laughed and related a funny story of his reception In Athens County last fall by way of illustrating th mode of action of what he called "the queer fellow In Athens." He said that coming down from Logan he had been met on the train by Baker, wbo represented the reatulara, and Kersman, who represented the bolters, each ot whom requested him to speak at Nelsonville. He agreed to do so, and when they got there there was a straggle between Kersman and Baker a to who should introduce him to the audience. Finally one stood on each side of him; but Baker got to speak ahead of Kersman and resented him (Foster), and Kersman retired isgusted. On coming to Athens Kersman bolted Into the carriage with him, and General Gibson and Baker left in disgust.

At the hotel there was almost a quarrel, as first Baker and then Kersman wanted Foster to take up their side of the fight In his speech, both would not accede to either request, and In his speech said nothing of their county politics. As to the charge that he had been "counted In" for delegate at large, the Governor said that not being present at the Convention be couldn't say what was: done, but didnt believe there was any counting In. He said: "I didn't want to be a delegate, and refused to allow my name to be used until the night before the Convention, when a letter came from Secretary Sherman giving the name of those be wanted I mean those he would Ilk to have elected. My name was among them, and of course I felt that I could not but comply with the request and allow my name to be voted on in the Convention. I wanted Mr.

Warner, of my district, -as a delegate, and know that the placing of hi name on thei ticket took quite a number of votes away from Garfield and from me." mi Chicago womixbvb. Leaving the Athens County trouble, I asked the Governor about the Chicago Convention and its- work, and who be thought would be the nominee. would not hazard an opinion on the subject, but contented himself with saying that be thought Sherman' chances were daily growing better, and improved aa th quarrel between tb Grant and Blaine men went on. He thought the Springfield Convention would result in a bolt by whichever faction was counted out, and expressed his regret that there were such quarrel In the Republican ranks. Jxrr.

I quickly ascended the companion way a and I aaw a number of figure flitting around in the darkness in a stealthy manner. I shouted loudly to them and asked them what they wanted, and the reply I received was in the shape of three bullet whistling In close proximity to my head. There were si of us aboard, and arousing my shipmate hurriedly I ran Into my cabin to get my revolver.

Securing the weapon I Immediately Jumped on deck again, and to katimidat the thieves and ahow them we were prepared to fight, I fired a shot over their head, but they took no beed of it. I then fired several shqt among them, but none of them took effect. i TlMEXjT kXTirrOBCIXINTS. The gang then closed in on me and endeavored to throw me overboard. In the mean time the crew came to my assistance, and upon the sight of the reinforcement the' thieve broke away and fled.

They Jumped precipitately Into their boat, which upset at one and left them floundering In the water. This did not seem to suit some of them, for they cried lustily for help, and as we assisted them one by one aboard we bound them tightly with ropes and placed them in tb bold of tb schooner. succeeded In capturing only three in this manner, th others swam away, towing th row boat, bottom up, along with them." THI CAPTTTRKD PIRATXS. The name of the thre captured are James MeMahon. Thomas Lynch and James Rodger.

About a half hour after this capture another gang wna picked up by Captain E. A. Price, of the schooner Rebecca, bound for New York In tow ot a email tug-boat. The other prisoner were transferred from the Victor to the tug-boas and were confined to then engine-room alongside of their companions and taiaen to New York, ONI 0 THI OAKO DROWKaTD. The last prisoner gave the name of Thomas Rielly, and said that, his companion, whose name was John Monroe, unable to bold on to the row-boat any longer, bad dropped into the water and was drowned.

The four prisoners, upon landing at the foot of Twenty-sixth street, were taken to th Twenty-econd Street Pollc Station in Iron by J.

KU A Sstceeaafsil BearaU 1 aw Extraordinary Opertin. Boston Globe.1 The medical fraternity of jDanielsonvlll. and, in fact, throughout the whole of Windham County, ar greatly interested In the experiment of skin grafting, which naa been going on there for the past twelve months, and which has finally proved a gratifying sac-cess. On the Slst of December.

1878, Jesse, an eleven-year-old son of Mr. Edwin Morgan, an influential citiseu of Canterbury, an adjacent village, fell into a shallow vat containing a solution of potash in boiling water. He struck ob both feet, the liquid coming nearly up to his hips and instantly the skin of the legs commenced to peal With presence ot mind the lad leaped to the floor, where be lay unconscious lor some time. It was found that the flesh on both legs had been so horribly and thoroughly boiled that no cells remained fpr a new skin to form a growth upon. Tbe boy's life was one of excruciating agony for mouths.

Tbe seared members negan to turn under tbe body, and actually "flexed" or knit to the back of the thigh. Last April a young physician, George J. Ross, of that town, finding that his older brethren had given the case op as incurable, and one which must speedily result In death, determined to attempt tbe salvation of the lad's life by in-drafting. He waspished and poobed at," to use nia own words, by the old beads of the profession without mercy, but the boy'' parent imploring bim to undertake th operation, a was finally induced to try It, Over two thousand grafts were nsed, the mother of the child, a noble-hearted Irish coachman in the family, th lad himself and many of the neighbors submitting portions of tbeir cuticle for the operation. A prevailing desire was manifested to bave tbe child live without becoming a cripple.

Hundreds of visitors nocked to see the patient, and implored Dr. Ross to try a piece of their skins In the operation. The piece of flesh were pulled off with forceps, and were about three times the size of tbe head of a pin. Tba process of grafting is similar to tbat empioyea in horticulture. One of the limbs looked as though pitted with small-pox.

The grafts grow fastest in the spring months. One of them is put on a muscle, where It sinks in and deposits a cell, after which the top sloughs off. Although the work Is not yet complete the legs are nearly restored to their normal and natural functions, and the child can walk a short distance withont a crutch, but is still very weak from exhaustion and emaciation.
