Wayside Gatherings. Mr. Jefferson Davis has nearly completed his book, from which it is said he will realize the snug sum of SIOO,OOO. A society has been formed in Philadelphia to secure the appointment of Roman Catholic chaplains for some of the regular army regiments. A religiously insane woman at Barton, Mass., goes about the neighborhood every morning delivering personal messages which she believes she has received from heaven (luring the night. Coon hunters were cutting down a tree at Adams. Ind. The dogs got into a fight close to the tree just as it was ready to fall. Two men succeeded in saving the brutes, but were crushed to death themselves. Old Betz, a Sioux squaw, who died recent ly at the reputed age of more than a hundred had been successively the wife of an array officer, an Indian chief, a border highway man, and a Methodist missionary. Avery old man voted three times at Wash ington, Ind., in the recent State election. On his trial it was convincingly shown that, though sober, lie had been so carried away by excitement as to forget that he had already voted. Twenty-nine missionaries from Salt Lake City arrived at New York last night. They left Utah on Tuesday last and will sail on the Wyoming, of the Guion line, for Europe on Tuesday next. Their effort will be confined to Great Britain and Scandinavia. They will return in two j’ears. — N. Y. Herald, loth. The export of iron ore from Spain in the first half of this year was ICO per cent, more than in 18G9. Spain is now full of com mercial Englishmen, who run the railroads, mines, and vineyards. The Spaniards are not very fond of these Britons, but can't get along without them. Nearly every engine is Spain hails from Manchester or Birming ham. Lemuel McGee, on his way to work in Vicksburg, said to his companions : “ I'm dry, and I ain’t got a cent; but I’m going to have some whisk}' if I die for it.” He led them into Samuel Hawthorne’s saloon, where they had the drinks, and McGee announced that he couldn’t pay. Then he did “ die for it.” Hawthorne killed him at once with a pistol. Jim Lyon, who was killed in a bar-room fight at Milliard, Nebraska, was found to be clad in a complete though penetrable suit of armor. Shields for his back and front were made of heavy leather, padded with an inch of cotton bating, and suspended under his clothing by straps over his shoulders. This protection had long given him the courage to figure as a bully. Jack Rafferty made a wager that he could drink without paying in every saloon on Spring street, Jeffersonville, Ind. He got safely into and out of seven places, but in the eight, when he said, “ Hand it up,” the bar-tender gave him a dreadful whipping. There wore six more bars to cover, and he struggled on ; but his appearance was now against him, and at the eleventh his skull was fractured with a club; so he lost the bet. Major Thomas L. Butler died at 91, in Louisville, a few’ days ago. llis fateer and four uncles distinguished themselves in the Revolution. Washington one gave this toast at. a dinner: “The Butlers and their five sons,” and Lafa\ r ette wrote in a letter: “ When I wanted a thing well done I order ed a Butler to do it.” Members of the fam ily moved to Kentucky, and became of social consequence there. Captain Eads will sail from New Orleans for Mexico on November 4, accompanied by a party of engineers, who will examine tiie Isthmus of Tehuantepec, in order to verify the Captain's ideas as to its adaptability to the purpose of a ship railway. Captain Eads will, at the same time, endeavor to se cure government sanction for his proposed survey, and to ascertain what the Mexican Congress will be willing to do if he decides to make the railway. Within the week before the last mail left there were no less than six persons in civilized England who had murdered their wives. And on the other hand we hear of a devoted wife hurling alighted paraffine lamp at her husband, disabling him with the blow, pouring the in llammuble oil all over his person, and setting him completely in flames. Another wife had struck a husband—whose only fault was that he was 77 years old—with a brass candlestick on the head, killing him at once. An intelligent dog had for a long time been -sent every morning to a butcher shop at Logan, Ohio, to buy meat for himself, lie always brought a tive-eent piece in his mouth, and laid it down on the block. One day he deposited a dollar instead, and wagged his tail with unwonted vigor, as though expecting a proportionately larger chunk of meat. An investigation proved that, his master having gone away, he had broken ir.to the money drawer and helped himself to a coin. For some time past a question of thrilling interest to the Bavarian bar has occupied the attention of the judicial authorities at Munich. It is this : May a barrister wear colored trousers in court, or must they be black ? This point was raised several weeks ago by a Bavarian Judge, who, perceiving the lower limbs of an advocate then addressing him to be encased in garments of tender tone, re proved him severely. The barrister treated these admonitions with scorn. Both parties to the dispute laid their arguments before a Court ol Appeal, which has been deliberating on them ever since. Meanwhile the well known Munich counsel, Dr. llelbling, has just been solemnly warned by another Judge tlmt if he attempts to defend his clients Tn colored trousers it will he the worse for him.
