Tub Athens Watchman Is responsible for the
following: A gentleman writing from Hart coun
ty, a few days ago, Informs us that his son splin
tered the broken leg ot a chicken many years ago,
which lived to be a ben twenty-one years old! and
that, in her 30th year, she laid eggs and hatched
a dozen chickens!
Tub Telegraph and Messenger says : That incor
rigible old reprobate and fallen Doctor of Di
vinity so-called, Dr. Mason was in this office again
last night, at a very late hoar, and gloriously
drank. We fear he will not be brought up short
ot one years service in the chain gang, and the
sooner the remedy Is administered the better for
him, soul and body.
Tub "local” of the Savannah Advertiser timo
rously announces, that local matters are scarce
and Items of interest correspondingly so. We
knew that some time ago. He knows where we
get our information.

Thb editor of the San Francisco Chronicle,
after stating that he has “no desire to en
gage In a personal controversy,” proceeds to
characterize the editor of a rlvsl newspaper as
"adrunken and cowardly idiot, who disgraces
journalism.”
A Boston paper tells a story of a professional
burglar of that vicinity who took a pride in his
vocation, and recorded the results of bis nightly
expeditions In a volume paged and lettered af
ter the fashion of a merchant’s journal.
Bats the Utica Herald: “ The man who thought
anybody could milk a cow don’t think so anymore.
He bought a cow yesterday, and last evening he
took anew tin pall and a ralsln-box and started
for the stable. He revolved out of the stable
through a window in just three minute*. At the
tame time the tin pall was heard wandering among
the rafters, and the ralsln-box came bounding out
of the door. The hired girl made a reconnoiaance
In force, and reported that the cow was standing
on her horns, so to speak, and wiggling her hind
legs (the cow not the girl) for more world’s to
conquer.”
Sad.—A Troy paper give* the following sad
•cene from real life. One evening, while the au
dience was deeply interested in a play at the
theatre, a young child was observed walking down
the aisle with quick snd anxious step. Her face
and eyes betokened weeping, and even yet the un
wlped tears were trickling down her pale cheeks.
The little one, after glancing hurriedly and anx
iously down the aisle, darted forward toward a
young woman sitting near the stage, and bending
over behind her, faltered out between her sobs,
‘‘Oh, dear 1 oh, dear leather’s—dead 1” The young
woman, startled by the sudden Intelligence, ex
claimed, ‘‘Oh, my Ood—my poor father!” and
hastily arose, and, with the mournful and mourn
ing messenger, left the gay place of pleasure fo
the darkened chamber of death. The scene was
noticed by a number, and for a little time after
wards there was not a murmur of applause nor a
sign of a smile by the audience. Aa the play pro
gressed the depression passed away, and soon the
sad scene of real life was forgotten in the painted
epresentatlon on the stage.
Omar Kinslsv—Thk Athlete 9* Niblo’s.—
Down at Niblo’s there la a pantomififi, and the sup
prising gymnastic feats of ‘ ‘Lulu,” a very pretlly
formed little fellow, who is supposed by the world
to b a young lady: This is the same athlete who
went all over Europe a year ago with hla father,
Signor Ferranti. He is a better exponent of wo
man’s parts than Ella Zoyara, who roile here years
ago. That young man [Omar Kinsley] lived in
Jim Nixon’s family; traveled the streets in light
silk dresses with Nixon’s daughters; * ‘smashed”
New York youths; even facinated older people.
Didu’t Barney Williams give her a diamond
bracelet ? For six mouths were you laughed at If
you said she was a he. But flualy when Ella ran
off with Ella Stiekney, and went to housekeeping,
und not only bought a cradle, but had occasion
to rock it, the victems of mslplaced confidence
looked back on boquets and jewelry with regret.
Lulu is a nice little gentleman, who, instead of
‘ ‘ painting birds ” and doing bcantilul needle
work, as some of the papere elaborately set forth,
rebels against the petticoat government, and says:
‘ ‘The old man hasn’t got but a year more of this
‘Lulu’ business. 1 ain’t near as pretty as I was,
and I’m getting uglier every day.”— St. Lorcit Re
publican.
A Corresponds:,t writing from Hillsborough,
Ohio, to a Cincinnati newspaper, tells what he
has done to exterminate potato bags. First, with
po good result, he sprinkled upon the vines lime,
ashes, plaster of parls, and auipher. The bngs
were next treated with, turpentine, benaine, splr
its of hartshorn, and alcohol, but these fluids
only seem to add to their enjoyment of life. Gum
camphor and asafotlda were then resorted to.
BUU the Insects lived on; and so they did
through a course of chloroform, and of sulphuric,
muriatic, acetic, nitric, nitro-muriatic, chemicaly
pure nitric acid. These did not in the least al
feet tlieri appetites. Then Paris green was tried,
and this was found rather too efiectiv, as it kill
ed both the bugs and vines themselves. It is now
proposed to try calomel, which it is thought will
loosen the teeth of the insects. —JMavare GautU.
Enolis* Estate and Amkhicnn Heirs.—An
agent sent to England to find a great estate said
to be coming to the Burnham family, returned un
successful, and concludes his report as follows:
** And in closing, a word or two of general ap
plication in reference to 1 English claims,’ so-call
ed, may sot be altogether out of place. It is some
what * notorious that in relation to such claims
parties interested often think more of the magnifi
cence of thfi claim itself than they do of the
evidence by which it is supported. Romantic im
aginings give to mere loose, traditional statements
a value and a significance that belong only to au
thenticated records and well established facts.
The very distance of the location of these claims
helps the glamor by which their victims are se
duced; and they are led to Institute legal pro
ceedings on a foreign soil, and to seek the recov
ery of property before a foreign tribunal, upon a
atate of facta and an amount of testimony which,
themselves even being judges, would be quite in
sufficient to justify similar attempts In a home
coart. But the foundation of snch proceedings is
the same everywhere—it rests upon purely legal
points, whose absence Is fatal in one case as much
as In the other. The mere antiquity of many of
these claims Is absolutely fatal to them. To “ set
up” or prove a will execused two hundred years
ago, the effect of which shall be to despoil o e
party and endow another, may be pronounced
nearly or quite impossible; while the difficulty of
making out Identity aftei such a lapse of time,and
of bringing the real parties before the court to
the exclusion of those who are not so, is exceed-
Ugl? great to say the least of Ik"
A City of the Dead.
Near Nashville, some four milea to the west, on
a gentle southernjslope in an old field ol forty or
Aft/ acres, that has been in cnltivation for the
last half century, there may be seen innumer
able contiguous graves, completely boxed
in slabs of stone, the capping of which being
about a foot below the surface, is oftentimes ex
posed by the furrows of the plow In preparing the
soil.
On digging and removing the cap-stone, the re
mains of much decayed human skeletons are inva
riably found, in a heap, with the skull on top, as
though the dead had been thus entombed in a sit
ting posture; but the dimensions ol only a foot
and a half in depth, between the foundation stone
and the cap, would seem to indicate that the dead
must have been kept above ground until the soft
er parts mouldered away, and then the bones
alone interred in this singular manner, or that the
body had undergone some kind of cremation.
The box-like structure of these endurable recap
tacles ia neat, and put together with much skill.
Our oldest citizens say that the Indians who in
habited the country immediately preceding the
whi’e man, had no knowledge or traditions of the
people buried here; and the very great number
of graves to be found thus contiguous, probably
exceeding a hundred thousand, evidently indi
cates a very densely populated country at the
time.
Works of art, such as vessels for holding water,
curiously mude ot orthis shell baked by fires, and
ornamented with many striking designs that are
bold and show a cultivated taste, are frequently
found in these box-like tombs. Some of these
may now be seen on exhibition, among other cu
riosities, in our great State Exposition.
In natural history, as taught by geological in
vestigations, there appears to have been a com
paratively enlightened period of mankind long
anterior to any account obtained from written
history, and many signs of this age are visible in
this State. May not this great neciopolis, or an
cient city of the dead, be one of them ? Commer
cial Reporter.
John Chinaman and thb “ Pigtail Order.—
On the third inst., when the order for clipping the
hair of the Chinese prisoners in the county jail
came up at the meeting of the Board of Supervi
sors of San Francisco for final action (it wa6 finally
passed, but vetoed by the Mayor,) the Rev. O.
Gibson, Chinese missionary, appeared before that
body with a petition, signed by many leading
Chinese merchants, which he had translated and
was invited to read. The paper was a statement
of the Chinese question from the Chinese point of
view, and alter stating that public sentiment was
strongly opposed ta them and that discriminating
laws had been enacted againßt them, called atten
tion to the fact that the policy of the Chinese
Government was strictly exclusive, and its tra
ditional policy had only been given up and trea
ties of friendship and interchange made after the
defeat of its armies by fdreign powers. Under
these treaty stipulations, dictated to China by
Christian Governments, the people of Europe and
America have freely entered the country for all
purposes, and they have caused more dissatisfac
tion than have the Chinese In this country. * The
declafmers against us because we supplant white
laborers In this country ought to know,” say the
petitioners, “what is well known to all intelli
gent Chinamen, that the introduction of Ameri
can and English steamers upon the rivers and
coasts of China has thrown out ot business a vast
fleet of junks, and out of employment a whole
army of men larger in number than all the Chi
nese now in America.”
Attention is further called to the great commer
cial relations between the two countries, and the
significant fact that the Chinese Government has
sent and continues to send ooies of youths to
America to learn our language, customs and laws;
also, that foreigners, under stipulations, are not
subject to the laws of China, bt*t carry their own
code of law into all parts of the Country. Speak
ing of immigration in general, the petitioners ask
why there should be such great opposition to the
Immigration ot 15,000 or 80,000 peaceful Chinese
annually, when 400,000 Europeans—one third of
whom are plotters against onr Institutions—are
received with open arms. “In the name of our
country, in tne name of justice and humanity, in
the name of Christianity, as we understind it ”
the petitioners say, “ we protest against our peo
ple while living in this country under existing
treaties.” They then make the following propo
sition : “ Finally, since our presence here is com
sldered so detrimental to the country and is so
oflensive to American people, we pyopo.se and
promise on opr part to use all our influence to
carry this proposition into effect. We propose a
speedy end perfect abrogatiun and repeal of the
present treaty relations between China and Amer
ica, requiring the retirement ol all Chinese peo
ple and trade from the United States and the
withdrawing of all American people and trade and
commercial intesconsse whatever with China.
This, perhaps, will give the American people an
opportunity of preserving for a longer time their
civil and religious institutions, which, it is said,
the immigration ol the Chinese is calculated to
destroy. This arrangement will also, to some ex
tent, relieve the Chinese people and Government
from the serious epabarrassoients which now dis
turb to the traditional policy of their sages and
statesmen, i. e., "Stay at home and mind your
own business and let all other people do the
same.” This is our proposition. Will American
people agree to it ? Will the newspapers, which
have lately said so many things against ns and
against our residence in this eonntry, will they
now aid us in bringing aboqt tfris, to us, desirable
state of affairs T In the meantime, since we are
now under sacred treaty stipulations, we humbly
pray we may be treated according to those stipu
lations until such time as the treaty can be re
pealed and commercial intercourse and friendly
relations comet to an end.”— Delaware Gazette.
A Votaoh Across The Atlantic.—Mr. Wash
ington H. Donaldson, of Reading Pa., formaly a
gymnast, and since 1871 a balloonist, has made
a proposition to the Boston city government to
make an ascension from this city on the 4th of
July, as a starter on a voyage across the Atlantic*
He has attracted considerable attention by giv
ing trapeae performances fron? bis 'balloon while
making ascensions. He claims that a balloon
trip can be made across the ocean in two days and
half although he Intends to provide for • trip of
thirty days. He proposes to construct three bal
loons, one nearly three times the size of the
others, the latter of which will be used to supply
the big one with gas as it gradnaly looses lifting
power. The balloons will hold some 285,000 feet
of gas, and will have a lifting capacity of 11 000
pounds, besides the weight of the gas chambers
themselves; netting, basket, lifeboat, etc. It
will take 2,700 yards of drilling for the big balloon;
but with the aid of sewing machines he thinks
he can get it in a month’s time- The basket in
which he proposes to ride will be a comfortable
covered room with a cellar in which to stoW water
and food for the trip. The room will have windows
on all sides,a lime stove will give abundant heat for
warmth and to cook with, while at night a vacuum
tube, with a platinum w.re at each end will
fnrnish abundant light by sending a current of
electricity along the wire. Beneath this chamber
there will be an open platform or balcony, and
beneath that one of the Francis metal lifeboats,
provided with oars, sails, 'instruments, food and
water, will be suspended ready at any instant to
receive the aeronauts should a near approach to
tha water taka place tor say reason. This lifeboat

will have four large air chambers, and will be
provided with a cabin in which the men can be
protected from the weather. By means of an in
genious contrivance the center of gravity can be
made beneath the bottom ot the boat to prevent
upsetting it. He proposes to take two men
with him, and desires them to be scientific men.
He states that Prof. Wise the well known aer
onaut, desires to take jthe trip. Dr. Donaldson
estimates the coef of the preparations about
63,000, and desires the city to assume the cost
and hs will give his Bervicee.— Boston Journal
Glass Bonnets—The Latest Noveltt foe
Ladies.— Whatever may be said of the aim or re
sult of the Vienna Exposition, it has certainly
been the means of trinuiDg together the choicest
products of the world, and of giving the people
ot various nations new ideas concerning matters
of which they have never before thought. In no
direction has a wider range been given than in the
manufacture of glas3, and new forms, desigui and
uses of this material are now presented to the
world for the first time. Conspicious among these
is a lady’s bonnet cr head dress, which, for ele
gtnee and beauty, cannot be excelled. The idea
of a glass hat is certainly novel, and many objec
tions might be made to it on account of the fra
gile material, but in reality the glass is much
stronger and more durable than the delicate ma
terials now iu use for the same purpose.
These articles, as may be imagined, come from
Bohemia and they have already gained a fair share
of popularity. Specimens have been sent to Paris
and London, and that we should not be behind
hand in so important a matter, an enterprising
firm in this country have imported quite a num
ber, and will immediately begin their manufac
ture, to be ready for the fall season.
These hats are of the most delicate and beauti
ful design, and such is their adaptability to all
costumes and occasions that they will probably
soon come into universal use. The body of the
hat is made of loose pieces of fine glass, fastened
closely together by a gutta-percha band, which
allows it to conform to the head. Inside there is
a lining ol silk, which is the only piece of fabric
used in the manufacture.
The trimmings on the outside are after the pre
vailing mode, consisting of wreath, flower?, feath
ers and ribbons, all made of delicately spun glass
of wonderful beauty. Of course all the trimmings
have their natural colors, and by a patent process
the glassy appearance is so well subdued that the
material is not suspected. The most beautiful
humming birds and flowers are used for ornamen
tation, and colored so naturally that In appear
ance they are superior to the usual artificial goods.
It is almost incredible the small amount of glass
that enters into the construction of one of These
hats, for the thread is so fine that a great space is
covered without any perceptible increase in the
weight. They weigh but a few ounces, or about
one fifth of the average weight of the present
style. With the care that is usually given by a
lady to anew hat, these new articles will out-last
twenty of them, for there is no wear to them;
moisture will not stain them, and,if dust should
settle to din their beauty, it is readily removed by
a single spray of water. The colors are so blended
that for ordinary occasions they preeent a general
neutral tint, but at a small additional expense
they can be made to flash and sparkle like dia
monds, either in the sunlight for a carriage cos
tume, or in the blaze of a ball room, or at the
opera. Their cost is insignificant, and as it is
understood several wel!-kv.own films are going
into the business extensively they may soon bo
expected upon our streets. It is probable, how
ever, they will not be readily known, as the re
semblance to the genuine materials is so great.

Glimfshs or Live in Washington.—l cannot
resist the temptation to refer to the recent pardon
out of the State prison of Mrs. Caroline E. Vree
land, through the instrumentality of of Vice-Pres
dent Henry Wilson. Mrs. Yreeland was sen
tenced for five years for attempting the life of the
alleged betrayer of her pretty daughter Florence,
and when pardoned had over a year to serve. I
happen to know mneb of the antecedents of this
lady and her pretty daughter, and I may safely
say that the charge made against the party whose
life she attempted is untrue. Years before Mrs.
Vreeland (the same who some years ago figured
in the great divorce suit against Vreeland, a Jer
sey miser, for alimony) resided in Washington,
and she and her daughter were great favorites
with Senators and Representatives, and gossip-
Baid had great lobby influence, and could obtain
special favors from a President who reached the
executive chair through accident. In 1867 I saw
Caroline E. Vreeland a prisoner in Jefferson Mar
ket on the charge of stealing a piano from Dicker
Brothers of this city, but she escaped eonviction
by telegraphing to Washington and having it re
turned to the firm in New York. She and her
blushing blonde daughter Florence subsequently
visited gentlemen’s offices selling books and con
cert tickets, and one day Florence disappeared
I froDa her parent’s habitation. The mother called
: on Inspector Jameson to cause her arrest at Buf
falo, and a few days after the pretty Florence re
turned, having left her friend, a Chicago lawyer,
at Niagara Falls. Florence still lives,
j and has a large circle of gentleman admirers at
her up-town rendeavous. The Poughkeepsie pa
pers that first exposed the part taken by Henry
j Wilson in securing Mrs. Vreeland’s release states
that a stylish coach and footman received her
from the custody of the prison officials. A Mrs
Greenlief, matron of the prison, who, it is alleged
met the Vice President at Sing Bing station before
Mrs. Vreeland’s discharge, left the prison with
her. I may say that a condition of the pardon
is that she is to reside outside of the State This
adventuress, who is in such high lavor with the
V ice-President, is an ex-wife of Richard L. Shelly
formerly tue New Orleans correspondent of the
Tribune, who in 1867 was appointed by Gen.
Mower clerk of one of your courts, and became
mixed up in so many affairs la yonr city Ken

“Has that gal got fits •” asked an old farmer 1
who had paused to sees fashionable young lady
go through her calisthenic exercises in the gar
den. “No replied the servant girl; that’s jim

‘‘how long’s she had ’em?”
