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.” At !.■• Than Colt to Clow Out.

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. A I’ouilri ttc Factory Burned New York. Nov. 22. —The poudrette factory owned by James R. Dye, on t he Hackensack river, North Bergen, N. J., was burned Saturday night. Michael Downey, a laborer, was so severely burned that lie died shortly afterwards, and Jacob Meyer, tho en gineer, was fatally burned. The cause of the fire was the explosion of gas in the room where tile fertilizer is manufactured. A Suicide. New York, Nov. 22. —Edward A. Lover, cashier of tho Dovoo Oil Works, Beaver street, of tiffs city, shot himself through the heart., at his boarding house, this morning, and died soon after. His friends claim the shooting was accidental, but an unfortunate love affair is be lieved to have resulted in his self destruction.
