The nitration of Life.
In ancient Rome, during the period
between ‘2OO and 300 A. 1)., the aver
age duration of life among the upper
classes was thirty years. In the pres
ent century among the same class of
people, it amounts to fifty years. In
the sixteenth century the mean du
ration of life in Geneva was -21.31
years, between 1833 and 1841, it was
40.68, and at the present time as
many people live to seventy years of
age as three hundred years ago lived
to the age of forty-three. lu tin
year 1003 the British Government
borrowed money, the amount bor
rowed to bo paid in annuities, on the
basis of the mean duration of life at
that time. The State Treasury made
a good bargain, and all parties to tin
bargain were satisfied. Ninety-seven
years later Pitt established another
tontine or annuity company, based
on the presumption that the mortal
ity would remain the same as a hun
dred years before. Rut in this in
stance it transpired that the Govern
ment had made a bad bargain, since,
while In the ttrst tontine, 10,uoO per
sons of each sex died under the age
of twenty-eight, a hundred years la
ter only 5,772 males and 6,316 females
died under this age. Prom this fact
It appears that life, under certain fa
vorable influences, has gained in
many, and probably, in all its forms
ami manifestation, both in vigor and
duration.
Untrue to Himself. -He is a
second-hand clothier, and holds forth
in South St. Joseph. It was about
the hour of ten yesterday morning
when he reeled into an adjoining es
tablishment, fell into a chair, weaved
his hands into the tangled locks of
his gray hair, and rocking back and
forth, moaned out:
“Oh, dear! oh,dear! I isli ruined.’’ i
“Vat is der matter, Jacob V” asked
his sympathizing brother in the trade,
bending over him.
“You remember dat coat, vot I paid
six bits for on yesterday ?'
“Yes, I remember him.”
“Just now a man from the country
comes in and asks mo how much for
dat. I tells him dree dollar; and
would you believe it. Moses, he puts
his hand right into iiis pocket and
pays de full price without a word”
Here he lowered his voice to the lo.v
est whisper "so help me gracious,
Moses, I believe he’d paid me live
dollar, just the same.”
“Jacob, how you vas swindle your
self!”
“Dat vas vot makes me hate mine
self so much as never vas.”
And the old man limped back into
hie own establishment, and doubled
all his goods at first call.--St. Joseph
Gazette.
The dangers amid which Stanley
pursues his investigation in Central
Africa, and the uncertainties attend
ing postal communication with the
outside world, are illustrated by the
fate of the messenger who started
with two letters which have just
reached London from the explorer.
The letters arc dated, respectively
April 11 and 12,1875, and were des
patched from the northern shore of
Lake Victoria Niyanza by Col. Debol
leford, an officer who belonged to the
Khedive’s force sent into those parts
under Gordon. On his return to his
commander, Debelleford and36 of his
soldiers were massacred by the na
tives. Four only of the company es
caped to report the fate of their com
mander and fellows, Gordon’s sol
diers found the bodies and buried
them. On Col. Debelieford’s person
Stanley’s letters, stained with the
messenger’s life blood, were found.
They were then forwarded by couriers
to Cairo.
“W. J. V.” writes from Washing
ton to the Cincinnati Commercial:
“Speaking of the third term reminds
me that I have heard more of it , and
more expressions in favor of it du
ring this week than ever before. I
am beginning to believe that all the
sentiment in favor of a third term is
not, after all, going about under
General Grant’s hat. Brother-in-law
Casey has been particularly ostenta
tious and loud in declaring that the
“emergency” lias arisen, and that
Orant would again be compelled to
be a candidate for the purpose of
again saving the country.”

Attempted Rape Near Fort Valley.
A Beautiful and Accomplished Girl the Vctim
A II 011 It IBLI2 CKLHE.
Tlic Fiend raptured and Buns by an
Indignant and Outraged
Community.
CORONERS VERDICT.
Special to The Daily Times.]
Fort Valley, Ga., Nov. 22.—The
painful duty is dovolved upon me, as
your occasional telegraphic corres
pondent,, to relate to you the details
of one of the most horrible, daring,
and atrocious crimes ever perpetrated
in Houston county.
On yesterday (Sunday) evening, n
negro,
JOHN brown, %
by name, and as black as the ace of
spades, Attempted, in the broad, open
daylight and on the public highway,
to commit
a rape
upon one of the loveliest and most
highly respectable young ladies in
our community. She was walking
with her little brother and sister,
about one hundred yards from her
homo, and her mother and father
were just about leaving the house to
join them, when the cries of the little
ones attracted their attention to the'
villain, who was
ALMOST IN THE ACT
of accomplishing his terrible design.
But let us thank God that the at
tempt was not a successful one, for
her father and brother were too near
upon him, and lie being aware of tiro
fact took flight. After a chase of
nearly two miles he was
CAPTURED BV TWO NEGROES,
and placed in charge of Mr. It. L.
Braswell, who brought him to Fort
Valley, where lie was lodged in jail.
When the negro first began to ap
proach the young lady, she took the
youngest child in her arms and tried
to run, but being thus encumbered,
she was soon overtaken by the scoun
drel, who
TRIPPED HER UP,
but she arose and, though oniya ten
der girl of eighteen years of ago, suc
ceeded in
KNOCKING HIM DOWN,
but he was on his feet again in a mo
ment, and this time struck her in the
mouth, which not only felled her to
the ground, but knocked out
TWO OF HER TEETH.
She was now powerless, and the
scoundrel, after scratching her neck
and face terribly, filled her eyes and
mouth with dirt to stop her cries for
help. When her father and broth
er came upon him they were too
much exhausted to kill the scoundrel,
and, worse than all. they had neither
knife nor pistol. However, they did
all they could with hickory sticks to
break his skull, but were prevented
by parties who, by this time, arrived
on the spot.
THE BBQUEL.
Last night, about twelve o’clock
deputy sheriff E. J. Houser and a
bailiff thought it proper to take the
prisoner to the county sito|jail for
safe keeping, as threats had been
made by the blacks
TO RESCUE HIM.
So they chose this late hour of the
night, when it was most probable
that every one was sleeping, to start
with the negro to Perry. When
about one mile out of town, on the
Perry road, the buggy containing the
deputy sheriff, bailiff and prisoner,
jvas halted by a
BAND OF DISGUISED
men. The sheriff and bailiff were
disarmed, put under arrest, and
were guarded by at least, a dozen
men. The rest of the party, sup
posed to be about 75 in number, then
took the negro in the buggy and
drove a short distance up the road,
where the fiendish devil
WAS II UNO TO A LIMB.
The officers were then released and
told that they were at liberty to pro
ceed to Perry, whither they did go
to report to the high sheriff.
The negro was left hanging to the
limb until three o’clock this evening,
when a jury was empanelled and an
inquest held, and the following
VERDICT RENDERED:
Deceased came to his death by hav
ing been hung by the neck till dead
by parties unknown.
The young lady was of a first-class
’ family,
BEAUTIFUL AND ACCOMPLISHED,
and resided about one mile from
i town. The sad affair has cast a heavy
! gloom over our entire community and
every man is ready and willing at a
moments notice, to punish all similar
offences and in a like manner. B.

HEATH OF VICE PRESIDENT WILSON.
Great Sorrow Anomw Hl* Friend*
Flairs at Halt Mast.
WHO WILL BE PRESIDENT OF TIIE SENATE?
Washington, Nov. 22.—At ten
o’clock this morning a special session
of the Cabinet was called. All the
members were in attendance except
Secretary Robeson, who is absent in
New York. After a full conference,
during which the loss of the great
statesman was deplored, Secretary
Fish was delegated in behalf of the
Cabinet to proceed to the Capitol and
meet with a called session of such
members and Senators of the United
States as may be in Washington.
He left the White House at half-past,
ten o’clock to attend the meeting.
The news of the death of the Vice
President lias cast a gloom over the
whole community. His death afford
ed the absorbing theme for discus
sion in all the Executive depart
ments. In respect to liis memory,
orders were issued to drape all pub
lic buildings in mourning, and dis
play at half mast the American flag.
All the hotels and the District Gov
ernment buildings also united in this
tribute.
The deathof Vice President Wilson
again raises tho question: “who will
be President of the Senate?” There
can be at the present time but one
conclusion to its solution: Tiie spe
cial session of the Senate, called in
April last, after an exciting caucus,
selected by a majority vote of one,
Thomas W. Ferry, of Michigan,
against Henry R. Anthony, of Rhode
Island, the competitor for the place.
There has been no change in the
Senate since. All the new members
participated in the caucus delibera
tion which brought about the nomi
nation. There is no doubt that if
the Senate at its next meeting does
not by subsequent action reverse its
selection of last April, Mr. Ferry
will be the presiding officer. There
is a general opinion, however, that
tiie Senate will select a now Presi
dent, pro-tem., and that t he selection
will be Mr. Anthony.
The special meeting of the Cabinet
called for half-past ten o’clock, ad
journed at half-past eleven. During
the meeting it was decided to issue
an Executive order, announcing tho
death of Vice President Wilson,
While the Cabinet was in session,
the President received notioo that
Mr. French, Sergcant-at-Arms of tho
Senate, had called a meeting of the
Senators now in the city, to be held
at the Capitol at noon. The Presi
dent at once requested Secretary
Fish to attend the meeting in behalf
of the President and Cabinet, and
confer as to arrangements for t he fu
neral.
There had not been, from t iie first,
among the Vice President’s intimate
friends, those familiar with his phys
ical condition, any hope of his com
plete recovery. The report sent out
to tiie press was uniformly more favor
able than the truth warranted, still
Mr. Wilson, with perfect quiet, might
have lived many months longer, but.
despite the peremptory orders of his
physicians, he would receive visitors,
read letters and newspapers, and
discussed political affairs. His mind
retained all its clearness until tho
end. Only yesterday he discussed,
with his accustomed far-sightedness,
the present political situation, and
declared that the result of the Ohio
and Pennsylvania elections ensured
tho continued supremacy of the Re
publican party. Ho went on to talk
of the coming campaign with refer
ence to his participation in it, and
was hopeful both as to himself and
party with which he was so closely
identified. The Vice President liter
ally lived in business, and doubtless
he himself would not have desired to
die otherwise.

New York. Nov. 22. —The poudrette

Gentlemen -You will please ship uh un
other supply of your invaluable Female
Regulator, and forward bill by mail. We
are happy to state that this remedy gives
better satisfaction than any article we
sell. We have boon selling it since 1808,
and witnessed many remarkable cures by
it. Among others, there was a lady
friend of ours who was sallow and sickly
until she was twentvrsix years old, when
she was married, llfr husband lived two
years and died. Bhe continued in bad
health; in fact, she has never been what
a woman ought to be. A few months
after the death of her husband she saw
your advertisement, and came to our
store and bought a bottle of your Regula
tor from us, and took it according to di
rections. It has cured her sound and
well, brought her regular monthly peri
ods on, and to-day she is a hearty, bloom
ing widow with tiie use of but two bot
tles of your Regulator, costing her only
three dollars, when she had tried several
physicians and spent a great deal of
