A TERRIBLE RIDE.
twknty miles beneath a locomo
tive UN a NIGHT EXPRESS.
The Kansas City Times says: “Man’s
daring often assumes a phase of fool
hardiness almost incredulous to believe,
mid it appears at times as though the
present generation is becoming braver
or less intelligent every day. One of
the most singular incidents of foolhard
iness known to this section of country
transpired upon the Kansas Pacific
railroad last Sunday night. A young
limit named J»siah T. Ilaiglit, a native
of and a recent arrival in this city from
AYnostor. < )hio, after “fighting the tiger”
in one or our sporting rooms on [Satur
day night, found himself “broken,”
without even so much as enough to pay
a hotel hill. After wandering around
the city all day Sunday, he conceived
the idea t.f endeavoring to reach Tope
ka. Kansas, by stealing a ride upon the
Kansas Pacific night express. With
this intention he partook of a hearty
supper at his hotel, near the Union De
pot. wrapped himself up as warmly as
possible, and started out to walk to
Armstrong station, two miles west of
Kansas City. There, while the train
was stopped, he crawled upon the pilot
of the icy locomotive and crouched down
upon the trucks beneath the smoke-box.
The train moved on at a rapid rate; the
cold, bitter winter’s wind swept keenly
and piercing through Haight’s clothing.
Chilling him to the marrow. He soon
discovered that he must inevitably freeze
to death in his present uncomfortable
condition, but there was no escape. The
train rushed on through the Kaw bot
toms, never halting, never stopping.
Haight Found himself gradually sinking,
benumbed, and without feeling, down
into the cross bars of the truck frame.
Gradually he dropped down until he
found himself jammed between the
warm smoke-box and the axles. The
noise and clatter of the machinery be
came deafening, the keen praitie winds
whistled and shrieked around the rush
ing locomotive. Ilaight kuew he must
die if left in his perilous position a little
longer. But there was no escape until
the train halted. He thought of drop
ping down upon the tics, which glided
beneath him with lightning rapidity.—
This he knew would be instant and cer

‘slacked up" and glided slowly to the
water-tank at Stranger’s creek. Here
Haight aroused himself with a desperate
energy and made a determined effort to
extricate himself front his perilous eon-

dead, he crawled out from the trucks

Buried by a Bear.
The San Francisco Bulletin says : A
gentleman who arrived a few days ago
from the lower country, where grizzly
bears help the herders to take care of
their sheep. relates a curious bear ad
venture which occurred to an Indian
herdmun in his employ.
He sent the man to a distant portion
of a large ranche to look after a herd of
sheep. The Indian at nightfall got un
der a shed with a roof of branches, but
open on all sides, and lay down in his
blankets. After a few hours sleep, he
was awakened by feeling the hot breath
of some animal on his face. He moved
his arms, and at once understood the
situation—a huge bear was snuffing him.
The man, with great presence of mind,
determined to keep perfectly still, for
he knew if he moved or cried out, one
blow of those huge paws would break
his skull like a walnut. Bruin scratched
on the blanket and seized the Indian by
the leg. Though suffering terribly, the
brave fellow did not allow a groan or
cry to escape him. The bear dragged
him from the hut for some distance and
then commenced to dig a hole to lay
the Indian in and cover him up from
the coyotes.
After the grave had been dug deep
enough the bear, contenting himself
with about a pound of flesh from the
victim’s thigh, moved the body to the
hole and covered it up. The Indian
managed to keep the earth loose enough
over his face to allow him to breathe,
and when the bear retired, he crawled
out toward the mustang, which was
picketed some yards outside of the hut.
With great difficulty he mounted, and
then rode towards the ranche house. A
doctor was sent for, and pronounced the
wounds, though severe and painful, not
likely to prove fatal. The next day a
hunt was organized, and the grizzly was
killed in the neighborhood of the spot
where lie had stowed away his intended
meal.
Uhl Electoral Vote o’ Georgia.
Our telegram announces the vote of
the Presidential Electors at Atlanta
yesterday. It will be seen that there
was a most conspicuous lack of unanim
ity in their action. Of the eleven elec
tors. six voted for Gratz Brown for
President, three for Horace Greeley,
deceased, and two for Charles J. Jen
kins. For Yice-Fresidont the vote was
qually divided, Mr. Brown receiving
five votes, (evidently from those who
did not vote for him for President.)
Geu. Colquitt five, and Mr. N. P. Banks
one vote.
AA r e confess our surprise at this result.
As there was no political signifi
cance whatever in the vote, it would
seem that there should been no lack of
harmony in casting it. Had it been
cast harmoniously for the deceased can
didate for President or for his colleague
Mr. Brown, it would at least have es
tablished a precedent in such cases; or
had it been given as a unit to cither of
the distinguished gentlemen voted for.
it would have been a signal compliment
worthy of their "rateful acceptance. As
it is. we can only say that the electoral
vote of Georgia has been disposed of in
a most extraordinary manner. It is to
be regretted that the electors of Georgia
could not have acted as a unit, if for
nothing else than for the sake of prece
dent.—Sac. Xrics.

definition of a widow : “One who knows
what’s what, and is desirous of further
information on the same subject.”
MR. GREELEY’S LAST HOURS.
[From the Savannah Republican.
The champion of “reconciliation and
of purification” has fallen, and we are
called upon to commemorate the hour
of his final deliverance. On Friday
evening, at ten minutes to seven, the
great mind of Horace Greeley ceased to
think; the great heart that had throbbed
in unison, but with a victorious North
and an oppressed South, ceased to beat
forever. Stunned by a double blow, the
over-taxed energies of the maD tottered
and fell, dragging him down in the ruin.
For some time past his health had been
seriously impaired by his labors during
the Presidential canvass, which was
marked as none other has ever been, by
such a rare blending of wisdom, ability
and temperance, as extorted from his
enemies unwilling praise. From the
Tribune, upon which he stamped his
personality to such an extent that, to
speak of it was to speak of Horace
Greeley, we take the following account
of the last minutes of their much la
mented chief.
the beginning of the end.
Abstaining, to an extent that is rarely
witnessed during a warmly contested
election, from personal criticisms, he
devoted himself to a lucid exposition of
the questions at issue, aud the earnest
advocacy of measures which he deemed
of pregnant import to the peace and
welfare of the country. But such a pro
tracted tension of the faculties was too
severe a strain for almost any human
constitution. Long before the close of
the contest, the issue of which caused
him no disappointment, his watchful
friends observed certain unusual symp
toms of fatigue and languor. They were
sufficient, perhaps, to suggest anxiety,
but certainly not to produce alarm.—
The effects of political defeat were soon
absorbed in the intensity of private
sorrow. The long-continued illness of
Mrs. Greeley terminated in death a
short time before the election. For many
days and nights her husband did not
leave her sick chamber, except at short
intervals. The sight of her sufferings
exercised a painful influence on his
nervous system. Night after night, he
was necessarily deprived of sleep, but
when the opportunity for rest was re
stored, he was unable to make use of It.
His incessant watch around the dying
pillow of his wife had well-nigh destroy
ed the sleep. Symptoms of extreme
nervous prostration gradually became
apparent, his appetite was gone, the
stomach rejected food, the free use of
his faculties was disturbed, and he sank
with a rapidity tffat even to those who
watched him closest, seemed startling,
ms CONTRIBUTION TO THE TRIBUNE.
So far as any of his associates knew,
Mr. Greeley was in almost as good health
as usual when, on tho day after the
election, he wrote the card announcing
his resumption of the editorial charge
of the Tribune. His sleeplessness was
known to have become greatly worse,
but for years he had suffered more or
less from the same difficulty. It is now
clear that sufficient allowance had not
been made for the intense strain upon
him throughout the summer, and speci
ally during the last month of his wife's
illness. It soon became evident that his
strength was unequal to the hard task
to which he set himself. He wrote
only three or four careful articles, no
one of them half a column in length.—
The most notable, perhaps, was that en
titled “Conclusions,” in which he
summed up h'.s view: of the canvass.—
Iti all lie furnished less th.u three and
a half columns after his return, contrib
uting to only four issues of the paper.
Two or three times he handed his as
sistant- short articles, saying, “There is
an idea worth using, but I haven’t felt
able to work it out properly. You had
better put it in shape.”
HIS CASE BECOMES CRITICAL—HE IS
REMOVED TO DR. CHOATE’S—THE
CONSULTATION.
At last, on Tuesday the 12th instant,
he abandoned the effort to visit the
office regularly, and sent for Dr. Krac-
kowizer, the family physician of Mr. A.
J. Johnson, the friend with whom he
was a guest, aud in whose house his
wife had died. Every effort was made
to induce sleep, but he grew steadily
worse, until it became evident that his
case was critical. Dr. George C. S.
Choate and others were then called in
consultation, and finally it was decided
to take him to Choate’s residence, two
or three miles distant from Mr. Greeley’s
own country home at Chappaqua. Here
he received the unintermitting attention
of Dr. Choate, and here Dr. Brown.
Sequard, Dr. Brown and others were
called in consultation. The insomnia
had developed into inflamation of the
brain, and under this the venerated pa
tient rapidly sank At times he was
delirious, at other times as clear-headed
as ever. He lost flesh and strength with
startling rapidity; and in a few days the
possibility of his speedy death forced
itself into unwilling recognition.
INFLA V ATION OF THE BRAIN.
It was not, however, until Thursday
last that his family and his associates
brought themselves to admit it, and
even then they still cling to their faith
in the vigor of his constitution.
^AILING.
On Wednesday night he failed very
rapidly. Thursday afternoon and even
ing he seemed somewhat easier. During
Thursday night he slept very easily,
muttering occasionally, and frequently
raising his right hand. Toward morning
he was very quiet, and between eight
and nine o’clock fell into a nearly un
conscious condition, which continued,
with intervals, through the day. His
extremities were cold all day, and there
was no pulse at the wrist. The action
of the heart was very intermittent, and
was constantly diminishing in force.—
He had not asked for water, or*l>een
willing to drink it. since bis stay at Dr.
Choate’s, but during Friday he asked
for it frequently. On the whole, he
suffered little, and seemed to have no
more than ordinary restlessness which
accompanies the last stages of disease.
He made occasional exclamations, bnt
many of them, in consequence of his ex
treme weakness and apparent inability
to finish what he began, were unintel
ligible.
HIS LAST WORDS.
About noon, however, he said quite
distinctly and with some force, “I know
that my Redeemer liveth.” During the
day he recognized various people, his
daughter many times, the members of
his household at Chappaqua, Mr. John
R. Stuart, and Mr. Reid. Up to within
half an hour of the end he occasionally
manifested in various ways his conscious
ness of what was going on around him,
and even answered in monosyllables, and
intelligently, questions addressed to him.
About half-past three he said, very
distinctly, “It is done;” and, beyond
Yes or No in answer to questions, this
was his last utterance.
“at the death.”
His younger daughter; MtssGaOrielie,
was with him through Thursday even
ing. Throughout Friday the elder
daughter, Miss Ida, was in constant at
tendance, as she had been during the
whole of his illness, and of Mrs. Gree
ley’s before him. Other members of his
Chappaqua household were present, with
Mr. and Mrs. StuartTand a few other
friends. Nothing that science or affec
tion could suggest was wanting to ease
his last hours. The wintry night had
fairly set in when th« inevitable hour
came. Without, sleijiis were running
to and fro, bearing. Chappaqua, the
nearest telegraph staCon, the latest bul
letins which the thousands of anxious
hearts in the great citj, near by, kept
demanding. Withirf; the daughter and
a few others stood neaf the dying man;
in the adjoining room sat one or two
more friends and the-physician. At ten
minutes before 7 o’clock the watchers
drew back in reverent stillness from the
bedside. The great editor was gone—
“in peace, after so many struggles; in
honor, after so much obloquy.”

THE ALPINE
Afl frustrated monthly journal, universally
admitted to be the handsomest periodical in
the world; a representative Bird champion of
American taste.
Nor for Salk in Book or News Stores.—
The Aldine, while issued with all the regu
larity, has none of the temporary or timely
interest characteristic of ordinary periodicals.
It is an elegant miscellany of pure, light and
graceful literature; and a collection ot pict
ures, the rarest specimens of artistic skill, in
black and white. Although each succeeding
number affords a fresh pleasure to its friends
the real value and beauty of the Aldine will
be most appreciated after it has been bound
up at the close of the year. While other
publications may claim superior cheapness,
as compared with rivals of a similar class,
the Aldine is a unique and original concep
tion—alone and unapproached—absolutely
without competion in price or character. The
possessor of a complete volume cannot dupli
cate the quantity of fine paper and engravings
in any other shape or number of volumes for
ten times its cost; and then there are the
chromos besides.
Art Department.—Notwithstanding the
increase in subscription last fall, when the
Aldine assumed its present noble proportions
and representative character, the edition was
more than doubled during the past year;
proving that the American public will appre
ciate and support a sincere effort in the cause
of art. The publish- rs, anxious to justify the
ready confidence thus demonstrated, have
exerted themselves to the utmost to develop
and improve the work; and the plans forthe
coming year as unfolded by the monthly
issues will astonish and delight its most san
guine friends.
Tne publishers are authorized to announce
designs from many of the most eminent art
ists of America. In addition, the Aldine will
reproduce examples of the best foreign mas
ters, selected with a view to the highest
artistic success, and greatest general inter
est; avoiding such as have become familiar,
through photographs or copies of any kind.
The quarterly tinted plates for 1873 will
reproduce four of John S. Davis’ inimitable
child-sketches, appropriate to the four sea
sons. These plates, appearing in the issues
of January, April, July and October, would
be alone worth the price of subscription. The
popular feature of a copiously illustrated
••(.’hristmas” number will be continued.
To possess such a valuable epitome ot the
art world, at a cost so trifling, will command
the subscriptions of thousands in every sec
tion of the country; but as the usefulness
and attractions of the Aldine can be enhancf
ed in proportion to the numerical increase o-
its supporters, the publishers propose to
make “assurance double sure,” by the fol
lowing unparalleled offer of premium chromos
for 1873. Every subscriber who pays in ad
vance for the year 1873 will receive without
additional charge, a pair of beautiful oil
chromos, after J. J. Hill, the eminent Eng
lish painter. The pictures entitled “The
Village Belle,” and “Crossing the Moor,”
are 14x20 inches—are printed from twenty
five different plates, requiring twenty-five
impressions and tints to perfect each picture.
The game chromos are sold for $30 per pair
in the art stores. As it is the determination
of its conductors to keep the Aldine out of
the reach of competition in every depart
ment, the chromos will be found correspond
ingly ahead of any that can be offered by
other periodic is. Every subscriber will re
ceive a certificate, over the signature of the
publishers, guaranteeing that the chromos
delivered shall be equal to the samples furn
ished the agents, or the money will be re
funded. The distribution of pictures of this
grade, free to the subscribers to a five dollar
periodical, will mark an epoch in the history
of art; and considering the unprecedented
cheapness of the price for the Aldine itself,
the marvel falls little short of a miracle, even
to those best acquainted with theachievements
of inventive genius and improved mechanical
appliances. For illustrations of these chro*
mos see November issue of the Aldine.
The Literary Department will continue
under the care of Mr. Richard Henry Stod
dard, assisted by the best writers and poets
of the day, who will strive to have the litera
ture always in keeping with the artistic at
tractions.
Terms :—$5 00 per annum, in advance,
with oil chromos free, The Aldine will here
after .be obtainable only by subscription.—
There will be no reduced or club rates; cash
for subscriptions must be sent to the pub
lishers direct or handed to the local agent,
without responsibility to the publishers, ex
cept in cases were certificates are given,
bearing the fac simile signature of James
Sutton & Co.
Agents Wanted.—Any person, wishing to
