It. Hoion Rrtteter Extra. December IS.]
This morning at 4 o’clock, after oar pa*
per had gooo to pres9, now* was brought
to tbe bonao of the editor of tbo Register
that a mob bad just hang Howard, the
murderer—haring orerpowerod oar jailer
Wi.e and the fire guard a who bare been
for four or fire weeks kept about tho jail
day and night.
Ob repairing to tbe spot, the Regitler
reporter found the black story all too
true. Re reached the place at 4:10 a. x.
and thwrc, swinging to a lamp-post at
tk« northeast corner of tho Caurt-bonso
yard, war tho bed; of Howard, stall not
cold in the awful death which had, with
.ueb fell rengeanco and brutal justice,
jaat overtaken him. We giro herewith
JAILER WlHa'a STOUT.
Sir. Wise says that at half past two
o'clock bo was awakened by a knock at
the door of bia bedroom, in tho basement
of the jail. He answered the knock,
supposing it waa a policeman with a pris
oner. Aa he opened tbe door, a large
man. masked, drew a hatchet upon him.
Mr. Wise caught him by tho throat, but
hack of the vigilante was a large crowd
of ten or fifteen confederates, who bore
down upon him. pressing him bock into
the room, when ho was thrown upon tho
fioor, tied band and foot. A large man
was left to guard him. which be did with
his knee on Wi.o’a breast, and a cocked
revolver at his head.
They took his keys from him. Not a
wool was aaid by any of them during
their encounter with him. This is all
that he knows about it, aa he was not re
leased till all was over, and the jail guard
oamo and unloosed him.
Mr. Walker and Mr. Gurney, two o!
the guard, wero in tbo auditor's office,
when they heard a rush of feet in the
liali. Going out. six or eight men, masked
„r blackened, were in the hall, while tho
door and doorway wero fnll, and appa
rently no end to the line of men stretch
ing, four deep, away down into tho yard.
Mr. Walker says that everything moved
smoothly, without a word being said by
any of the vigilantes, everything evi
dently having been pre-arranged—and
different men assigned to different work.
They knew tho whole situation, and had
apparently assigned certain men to take
charge of the jailor and each of tho
guar Is—for there was no confusion, and
cash one seemed to do just what was al
lotted him. They allowed Mr. Walker to
pass down tho middle stairway into the
basement, whero they followed him, and
made him behave himself under a battery
of revolvers. The same coarse was fol
lowed in regard to deputy sheriff Scofield
and ail tho five guards.
Mr. Gurney seems to have seen more
of tho jail-break than any other person.
Ife says they took the keys and went di
rectly to the cell whero Howard was and
where ho was in bed with his wife. They
knew all too well what was coming, for
the mob baa its awful forewarning in its
mere murmur, os tho earthquake has its
awfnl. terrifying warning in it* faintest
rumble. Breaking into the room, they
surged up to tbo bed amid tbe frantic
and
aooxizixo tills or his wifi.
As they laid bands upon their victim,
hi* wife threw hor body directly across
his breast and neck, evidently thinking
they meant to kill him there with powder
or blade. Sho clang to him so desperate
ly, interwining herself about him with
such superhuman strength, that the vig
ilantes could hardly unloosen her grip
and reach the man. And it was not till
Howard himself—iron-nerved and daunt
less to the last—took hold of her arms,
and with his giant strength pushed her
back, that she released her frenxied grip.
Redid this with the ejaculation, “Bet
me loose, and I will go with them if I
must.”
THI KOri WAS THIX PUT ABOUT niS HICK,
and he was dragged ont of tho bed, and
access the floor out of the door, his .wife
following him with tho most agonizing
screams of which tho human voice, in.its
direst agony, ia capable—screams which
Scofield and Walker and the guards say
will never die from their memories, so
full of terror and supplication wero they.
Tho door was slammed os they went, and
the woman left olono to tho palpable
darkness, with no companion but tbe
grisly horror which is worse than.death.
As bo came out of tho outer jail door
five or six men had hold of tho rope, and
he trotted along after them, clad only in
a short under-shirt, bolding his two bands
in front, grasped upon the rope. He
trotted up the middle stairs—tho route
taken—and when at tho bead of the stairs
more man grabbed hold of the rope, which
jerked him down upon the floor. He was
not given time to rise up, but was drag
ged along through the hall, down the
front steps, and along the serpentine
walk, a* rapidly as twenty strong men
could diaw him. Mr. Gurney says he
saw him os he was going up the middle
stairs and that be had not up to that
time spoken a word that he or any of the
reat had heard, and he waa then turning
block or purple in the face. The guards
also say they hoard nothing from him af
ter he left the ooart room, hat the boys
in the post-oSce, who were awakened by
the firing which was commenced all
around the court-house yard about that
time, say that they never heard such aw
fab terrible, startling, unearthly screams
in quick •accession.
Of the rest of the work little is known.
All that was known was what wo
could print in the short time we had was
the dangling body of Howard, swinging
with his face next the remorseless iron
of the lamp post, his form nearly, naked,
his legs all bedraggled and begrimmed,
and bruised and bleeding, and apparently
six or eight bullet holes in hi* feet and
lower part of his legs. Ho was
Brio with a halt-inch himp warm.
thrown up over the two iron arms just
before the gas lamp, put around his neck
double, with the knot under his right
ear, and the two ends of the rope tied,
one to the front of the hitching frame
hack of him, the other to the top of the
iron fence. His face was not much dis
tortel, although his tongue, black and
hloody, protruded from his mouth through
his teeth, looking very like a ghastly,
likening lump of chewed and mangled
Ut liver. His eyes were not protruded
hardly at ali, nor was there upon his face
or ia his countenance hardly on appear
ance of pain, saTing nothing of agony.
Mon or demon, whatever he was, the fel-
* low died game, his iron nerve never re
laxing nor deserting him even in the lost
moment of supreme terror and distress.
THE PROBLEM OF PAUPERISM.
Result ef Hr. Charles S. Hoyt's In.
Ttsilntlsi of the Alms-houses of
the fttote.
Prom the New York World.]
Dr. Charles S. Hoyt, Secretaiy of the
State Board of Charities, who has, in
conjunction with other members of the
board, been for tho past six or seven
years prosecuting an inquiry into the
causes of pauperism, giTes some exceed
ingly interesting facts gathered daring
his labors. The work of ascertaining
tbe causes cl crime was included in the
duties of the board, but the Prison Also
ciation having the same object in view
this investigation has been left to the
latter organization, which, with Dr.
Elisha Harris at its bead, has made much
progress. Dr. Hoyt has completed his
inquiry in all bnt four or five of the
counties of the State, his present field of
operations being New York county. The
method adopted for attaining the object
desired has been to make careful inquiry
into the history of the inmates of the
county alma-houses, by interviewing
both the inmates, the keepers of the
houses, and, in many cases, friends and
relatives cl the inmates. A schedule
containing the interogations in regular
order has been used. The questions
asked ore as to the name, age. sex, social
condition, color, birthplace, birthplace of
parents, length of time a dependent,
personal and family history, existing
causes of dependence, etc. The data
obtained by this examination is all record
ed and systematically complied. Asarcsult
of this inqniry Dr. Hoyt says be his found
that pauperism becomes in ope sense a
disease. When one member of a family
once enters a poor-house tho others fol
low inevitably. Dr. Hoyt said that be
fore he began this work ho bad the opin
ion that a great many of tho inmates of
poor-houses were those who bad scon bet
ter circumstances; but he had found that
this was not the case. The majority of
paupers fare better in the alms-houses
thau they ever did before entering. In
the poor-bouso of ono county ho found
86 inmates. These 86 inmates came from
67 families, 25 of thorn were under Bfy-
tecn years of age, and twelve were
in the house. These persons had lived
an aggregate of 639 years at the expense
of the county. Some of the inmates had
pauper fathers, 28 had pauper mothers
3 pauper grandfathers, 5 pauper grand
mothers, 9 pauper brothers, 17 pauper
sisters, jl pauper uncles, and 13 pauper
aunts. Tbe 67 families which were rep.
resented by these S7 paupers, bad pro
duced 161 dependents, 21 lunatics and 25
idiots, 23 daunkardx and 4 State prison
convicts. Of these inmates, 22 were
moots of children, 17 of whom were also
nmates of the institution, 33 said to be
self-supporting, and 6 bound out. These
facts showed the tendency that pauperism
hod of passing from generation to gen
eration. A ne w era is opening upon the
system of pnbiio charity ky the enforce
ment of a rule that excludes children from
alms-houses. This is to be ono great
remedy for pauperism—the placing of
children in orphan asylums instead of in
the alms-house. In 1868,25 per cent, of
tbe inmates of the poor-houses of the
counties of Broome. Tioga, Cortland and
Delaware were intelligent children. In
that year several ladies and gentlemen
made arrangements for putting these
children in an orphan asylum in Hint;-
bampton, where thoy aro supported by
paying a small sum per capita. The
consequence is that the children are being
taught and prepared for lives of useful
ness and tbo paupers are decreasing. In
all but four or fivo of the counties in this
State tho Supervisors have adopted the
rulo of sending the intelligent children to
asylums instead of to the poor-houses.
By this means there are fewer women in
the alms-house, from the fact that they
ill not stay whero they cannot bake
their ehildron with them. On tho whole.
Dr. Hoyt said pauperism was on tho de
crease, iu this State especially. Tho
amount of pauperism resulting from crime
and dissipation still remains the same.
Josh Bii.liscs was asked. “ How fast
doe* sound travel?” and his opinion is
that it “ depend* a good deal upon tbe
noiss you are talking about. Tho sound
of a dinner-born, for instance, travels
half a mite ia a seoood, while an invita
tion to got up in tbe morning I have
knawn to bo Jthree-quarters of an hour
gutn’ up two pairs or stairs, and then not
bars strength left to be beard.”
THE COXING WIFE. j
How She Helps her Huilfaqil Under
Difficulties—Patience and Sunshine;
From the Detroit Free Preai-J
She is a little bit of a woman, all pa
tience nnd sunshine, and I'd spoil the
best silk hat that money coaid bay for
the privilege of lending her my umbrella
in a rain storm,
She's married aud she’s got an old rhi
noceros of a husband. Ho makes it a
practice to come homo tight at 11 o'clock
every other night, and has for years, and
ho can’t remember that she over gave
hicLa cross word about it. - - When- he
alls into tho hall sho is waiting to close
the door and help him back to the sit
ting-room, whero a good fire awaits him.
Sho draws off his boots, unbuttons his
collar, helps him off with his coat, and
all the time she is saying:
“Poor Henry! How sorry I am that
you had this attack of vertigo! I am
afraid that you will ho found dead by
the roadside some night.”
“Whazzer mean by verzhigol” bo
growls; but she helps him off with his
vest, and pleasantly continues:
■•I’m so glad you got homo all right. I
hope the day will come when you can
pas3 more of yonr timo at home. It is
dreadful how your business drives you.”
"Whnz bizshness—whaz ycr talking
’bout?” ho replies.
“Poorone—how hot your head is!”
she continues, and presently he breaks
down and weeps and exclaims:
“Yez zur—zic’s a ’orse—wearing zelf
out fhast’s oqn—wishzi was dead 1”
Next morning she never refers to tho
subject; but pleasantly inquires how he
slept, and if his mind is clear. His boots
may be missing, and he yells out:
Whar'n thunder’s my boots 1”
'Bight here, my dear!” she replies,
and sho hands them ont, all nicely black
ed up.
If she wants a dress, or a hat, or a
cloak, and ho yells out that household
expenses are eating him up, she never
“sasscs” him bock, nor tells him that she
could havo married a Congressman, nor
declares that she will write to her mother
and tell her just how it is.
“ That's so, my dear—times are hard,
she says, and she gets up just as good a
dinner as if ho had left her fifty dollars.”
He may come homo tight at supper
time, but sbe is not shocked. She re
marks tbst it is an unexpected pleasure
to have him home so early, and sho pre
tends not to notice his stupid look. He
sees three chaira where there is but one,
and in tiying to sit down he strikes the
floor like the fall of adeirick.
Whazzer jaw zhat chair ’way for ? he rt
yells, and she replies:
" It’s that hole in tho carpet—I knew
you would stumble!” and sho helps him
up and brings him in a strong cup of
tea.
They do not keep a servant, and when
cold weather came she never thought of
plonking herself down in a chair opposite
him and saying:
“Now, then, you’ll either get up and
light the fires or there won’t bo any
lighted—mark that, old baldhead!”
No, she didn’t resort to any such base
and tyrannical measures. When day
light comes she slips out of bed, makes
two fires, warms his socks, and then,
bending over him, she whispers s
••Arise, darling, and greet the festive
morn!”
He’s sick sometimes, and I’ve known
that woman to coax him for two straight
hours to take the doctor’s medicine, turn
over his pillow twenty-two times, keep a
wet cloth on his head, pare his com
down, and then wish that she had a quail
to make him some soup. When be gets
into a fight down town and comes home
with his ears bitten up and his nose
pointed to tho northeast, she inquires
how the horse happened to run away
with him, and she says she is so thankful
that he wasn’t killed. She has on excuse
for anything, and she never admits that
anv one but herself is to blame about
anvthing. Lor’ bless her—I hope she’ll

THE GSBAT “BONANZA.
Description of tho 'Wonderful
Silver Mine In Xevada.
A NaunuOn-Xaaiot fluttering Ore—

Speculators.
Correspondence New Tort World. J
The “1,500-foot level of the Consolida
ted Virginia,” the “curve of the old Mex
ican and Ophir,” the “heart of the Corn-
stock,” the “bulge of the Bonanza,” tho
"southward drift of the California," and
such like expressions are doubless familiar
to the readers of the Gold Hill News and
of other enterprising pioneer sheets dis
seminated from the -various Rocky Moun
tain peaks, but some explanation will be
necessary to enable tbe average Eastern
reader to comprehend them. There is a
rich silver mine in th<r State of Nevada
known as the Comstock Silver Lode, and
tho heart of the Comstock” refers to
the central, or richest part of that
mine or lode. This Comstock. Lode
has been divided up and let out
to be worked by different mining
companies. The consolidated Virginia
is the name of a company owning one of
tho claims, tbe California is tho name of
another, and the Ophir is the name for
the company holding still another claim.
What is meant by tbe "southward drift
of the California” will now be better un
derstood. As for the "bulge of the
bonanza,” that expression doubtless re
fers to the swelling or expanding form
of an exceeding rich vein extending
through the Comstock mine in an oblique
direction from the bottom upwards.
Aud now, with jhis xnueS pf explanation,
the marvellous"story which come3 to the
East concerning the silver lode of Nevada
must be told. The bonanza (chimney)
or rich vein, was discovered not long
ago. It begins, apparently, about four
hundred feet south of the California
claim, and gradually widening, extends
through the California, .the Ophir, and
the Virginia claims. It is os if Hercu
les, from his position among tbe con
stellations, had cast a gigantic silver
spoon down to the earth. As it horied
itself many hundreds of feet beneath
the surface tbe heap of tho concussion
causod it to melt and mingle with the
baser matter, such as rock and clay.
Leaving the rest of the world at the sur
face we will now dive down into tho Ml ver
mine and see' what Wto be soCn. ‘The
cage is lowered in a few seconds to the
depth of 1,500 feet, when a spacious un
derground chamber called a “station” is
reached- From thi* largo chamber a
tunned J.cads dipetjy cast,to the main
north and south drift, the great highway
of this level of the mine, and which ex
tends southward tbrongh thtfBest^; Bel
cher into tho Gould & Curry, and north
ward through tho California and Ophir
claims. Crossing thisprincipal thorough-
ford of tlie level'Shd continuing on in an
easterly direction the California cro33-cat
is reached. It is hare iti this drift that
tho wonderful jf ob ore of -which so much
ha3 been said and written is found. Tbo
ore was only moderately rich when it is
first cot by tho drift, but it rapidly
jrows richer, and after a few steps it
>ecome3 "glittering.” Tho drift has now
penetrated the mass of ore a distance
of about twenty-five feet. Tbe work
men yrbo aro found in tbo dark cavern
throw down their picks, and with their
lamps exhibit the sides of tbe glittering
masses. ''This ore,” sayp tbe pilot,
" yields an avenge assay of $600per ton,’*
and it would bo easy’to procure samples
that would essay far up into tho thou
sands. This is only tho beginning of the
drift” which tells the story o! tho fab
ulous wealth lying near at hand in tUe
California. How far the silvery mats
may extend no man can telL Turning
bock to the main north and south drift
and going southward, at tho distance of
118 feet the cast cross-cut, No. 2, js
reached. Here a road Into tba silver
mountain has been opened. At the open
ing of the drift about all tbst is to be
seen is tbe mixture of porphyry and clay.-
with here and there Streaks of white
quartz running ' in various direc
tions. Soon, however, a band of clay
isfouud coming down across the drift,
cutting boldly through the rocks at an
angle of about 45 degrees, and here
begins the pre,-At this point tho yield
of the bro is said to "be $100 a ton and a
little further on it increases to $200. At
tho end of the drift about 200 feet furth
er, moro miners aro found - at'work, pick
ing away at tho sides of the shining
mass. About midway in tho length of
this cross-cut is a winze which connects
with a drift $0 feet, lower which comus
in the Gould.A.Curry claim. This winze
throughout its whole length penetrates
the samo rich ore that —as found in the
drift. The-earth around the timbenj
having caved in, tho workmen aro filling:
in with ore worth from $150 to $200
per ton. “ This is nothing^ howpveri as
the earth all around is one mass of ore of
equal value.” Going southward again,
cross cut No. 3 is reached. This cut ex
tends cast and west between tho north
and south drift. At the west end i3 found
wall of quartz,clay and porphyry. At the
southest cy:
-feet wide, o
stands and
of ore contained in thia.bod^,it,si
most impossible that such a mass could 7~„.
be dug out and raised to the surface. --
Pushing on. again into the California
claim, a drift is reached which is being
driven east. This is steering for tho
jreat ore body, which it is supposed will
>o reached within a distance of 150 feet.
No “ breasting out” ha3 as yet been done
in the Consolidated Virginia at tho 1500-
foot level. All the ore thus far taken
from tho level has-been extracted jn run
ning the drifts and crosrcUts.- J
But below the 1,500-foot level of the
Virginia drift ore a few million dollars in
sight which it would cot do to overlook.
‘It is estimated by an expert that there
is now standing in the Consolidated Vir
ginia Mine above the 1,500-foot level
$43,000,000 worth of ore!” (Mind, we
do not vouch for this.) This is saying
nothing about what is below, which* has
already been explored to the depth of 50
feet below the 1,500-foot level.
This description, it mast be confessed,
can only convey to the mind a very poor
idea of the magnitude and importance of
the alleged great discovery. The great
centre of interest in the vast ore body
running through the three mines is at
present in a littlo drift ia the Ophir
ground, just at tho edge of tho north line
of the California. In this, it is said, was
struck ore “far surpassing in richness
anything yet seen. Specimens are here
found that are almost pare silver, that
i quite malleable, and that may be
whittled with n knife like lead." This is
"How much will a $5,000 policy cost?”
inquired the stronger, after a long pause.
“Yon are—let’s aee—*ay thirty-fire. A
policy on yon would cost $110 the first
year."
“That’s reasonable enough.”
“Yes, that’s what we call Ww, but our*
is a strong company, does a safe business,
and invests in only first-class securities.
If you are thinking of taking out a policy
let me tell you that ours is the best and
safest, ar.-l even the agents of rival com
panies will admit the truth ol what I
say.”
‘And when i die my-wife-will get her
money without any trouble?”
“121 guarantee that, my dear sir.” ~
“And I’I1 get a dividend every year?’*
“Yes. tLi.- is a mutual company, and
part of the profits come back to the
policy-holders.”
“And it won't cost me but $110 tor a
policy of $5,000 ?"
“That’s the figure, and it’s as low os
you can got safe insurance anywhere.
Let me write you but a policy. You’ll
never regret it.”'
“Them’s the blanks, I s’pose r” said the
stranger, pointing to the desk.
“Yes,” replied the merchant, as he
hauled up one to him and took up his
pen. "What do you say—shall I fill out
an application ?”
“No, I guess I won’t take any to-day,"
replied the stranger, as he unlocked his
valise, “but if you want something that
will take that wart off your nose inside of
a week, I’ve got it here ! It’s good for
corns, bunions, the toothache, earache,
sprains, i”
He was placing his little bottle on the
table, when the agent reached over and
took him by the shoulder and hoarsely
whispered s
“Man, it you don’t want to beoome a
corpse yon won’t be two minutes getting
out of here!” And he wasn’t.

Abolishing- Universal Suffrage.
'With a consistency that does him
honor. Senator Merton resists the propo
sition to abolish universal suffrage in the
District of Columbia; but the majority
of the Republicans in Congress seem to
be, with President Grant, Senator Mor
rill, and the other leaders of the party,
seolously in favor of the measure, and
the substitution for the rejected institu
tion of direct government not respon
sible to the people governed.
Bat if universal suffrage is bad for the
District of Colombia; If the people there,
white, black and mixed, ought not to be
allowed to vote without regard to color,
descent or previous condition of servi
tude, how about the people of South Car*
olina, Louisiana, Mississippi, and the
test of the former slave-holding States?
Do the Republican enemies of univrwl
suffrage propose to extend their move
ment to these States also? Axe the
great amendments to the constitution to
be rescinded ? And what do they now
think of their tremendous quarrel with
Andrew Johnson upon this very question
of uni vernal suffrage, which shook the
country from 1865 to 186* ?-N. T. Sam

From tho northwest drift a cross-drift
ha3 been started south toward the Cali

where the wonderfully rich ore has been
found. It is estimated that the. ipke in
this ten-foot drift will average one thou

over eight thousand two hundred dollars.

papers say) in contemplating the marvel
ous richness and extent of tho ore depos
its, and operators are amazed at the
startling advances in the price of shares
in the favored mines. The history of the
California Mine during the last four or
five weeks has been a most remarkable
one. On the 1st of November the stock
was selling at $58 per share; on the 5th,
at $01; on the 11th, at $76; on the 20th,
at $S1; on the 30th, it reached $100. and
most people thought it was time to stop.
Bnt there were heavy buyers in the mar
ket, and next Tuesday the price was $120;
Wednesday it rose to $125; on Thursday
buyers had to pay $1G0, and Friday it
opened on the street at $182.60, and in
the morning Board rose to $193. The
stock was not called at the afternoon ses
sion, but on the street a great many sale3
were made at prices ringing from $205
npto $227.50, and as darkness closed
over the eager crowd $225 was freely of
fered without takers.
He Didn’t Want Any.
From the Detroit Frec-Pron-4
The other day a well dressed stranger,
carrying a hand Talise, called into a life
insurance office and inquired if the agent
was in. The agent came forward, rub
bing his hands, and the stranger asked:
"Do you take . life insurance risks,
here?” .‘.liSSdO DZJt gtiXtaj
“Yes sir; glad to see you, sir; sit down
sir," replied the agent.
“What do you think of life insurance,
anyway ?” inquired the stranger as he sat
down and took off his hat.
“It’s a national blessing, sir—an insti
tution which is looked upon with sover
eign favor by every enlightened man and
woman in America.”
“That’s what I’ve always thought,"
answered tbe man. “Does yoer compa
ny pay its lasses-promptly ?’
“Yes sir; yes sir. If yon were insured
with me, »«l you should die to-night,
Fd band your wife a check within a week.”
"Couldn’t ask far anything better than
that.”
"Hasair; no, air. Tho motto sf oar

BRADFIELD A CO., Atlanta, Ga.—Dear Sirs
I take pleasure in stating that I have used for tbe
last twenty years, the medicine you are now put
ting up, known as Dr. J. BradfleJd'a PE MALE
REGULATOR, and consider it tba best combi
nation ever gotten toccther for tho diseases for
which it is recommended. I have been familiar
with the prescription both as a practitioner of
medicine and in domestic practice, and can hon
estly say that I consider it a boon to suffering
females, and can but hope that every lady in ur
whole land, who may be suffering in any way pe
culiar to their sex, may be able to procure a bottle,
that their suffering* may not only be relieved,
hut that they may be restored to health and
strougth, W ith my kindest regards,
respectfully, W. B. FERRELL, M. D.
Some months ago I bought a bottle of BRAD-
FIELD’S FEMALE REGULATOR from you.
and have used it in my family with the utmost
satisfaction, and have recommended it to three
other families, and they hare found itjuat what
it is recommended. Tne females who nave
your REGULATOR aro in perfect health, a
are abte k attend to tbeir household
wo cordiai . recommend it to thepublie.
Youro reyecUuHy, Her. H. E JOHNSON.
«e could add a thousand other certificates;
but we consider the above amply sufficient proof
of its virtue. All weask is a trial.
For full particulars, history of diseases, and
certificates of its wonderful cures, tbe reader
