AR S PR, TP RN T ... (T, THE THE HORSE DISEAS!. Another Day of Deserted Steefs and Unhappy Pedestrians Some of the Early Aficted Horses Recovering Dr. Rauch, Sanitay Su- perintendent, on.he Situnation. The “ Turf, Field, ahdFarm’s” Opinion of Hose- Doctors. Ludicrous Mishaps Reulting from Substituting Oxa for Horses, HICAGC Yesterday was a better dayfor the horse than the day before, and severs well-authenticated instances of rapid improvwment were reported. In fact, several horses wlch had been taken with the disesse early las Wweek, yesterday ex- hibited the inevitable smptomsof rapidre- covery. In the absence @ horees and vehicles, the streets were saved fom utter desertion by vehicles drawn by hardyhumans, or-the lowing ox. The car horses of the Yest Division were not by any means improving #s rapidly as might have been antidipated, nd, though no deaths bave occurred, thers seems to be unusual severity in the way in which the horses are attacked. Swoller throats and running noses were bad enongh ; hacking coughs and re- fusal to eat also distreesing; now utter prostra- tion, and, in some cass, inflammation of the lungs, typhoid pneumoris, and pleurisy. Thus, itwillbe fully three weeks before the street cars travel again witk sufficient regularity to accommodate a long-suffering and much tried public. The South Tivision car horses arein much better plight, and will be npon the road again some days earlier. The Northwestern Railroad Company, in run- ning cars from the Wells street depot to West- ern avenue and return, are alleviating the West Division's troubles very materially, IN THE LIVERY STABLES, generslly, the disense still remeins in its mild- est form. Ofthe thonsands of horees in livery and boarding-stables, scarcely hLalf-a-dozen are dangerously sick, and their owners are com- pelled to admit that the severity of their suffer- ing is greatly owing to the failure of the bands to observe the symptoms i time to put them on the sick list, and tbus prevent their being worked while enduring their present affiction. 1In nearly every instance this failure of detection has produced pneumonis or inflammation of the Jungs. The other horses in the stables appear o be really Tecovering more rapidly than their ovwners expected. A varioty of treatments have been in nse, but each special method appears to ‘have been more or less successful. g DE. BAUCH ON THE SITUATION. ‘The Sanitary Superintendent thus alludes to the horse disease, Iu his report to the Board of Health : From facts in my possession, I am pretty well satis- fied that we did not Luve the horse Qisesse here prior o Oct. 20. It first made its appearance in the West Distcion, thence spread to the South Division, and lustly to the North Divieion. Generally speaking, it Beems tohave broken out first on the most frequented strects, and among borses that were driven to every part of the city, and among those that were kept in irolated places, or the farthest re- ved from the main thoroughfares. On lust Tues- day it first attracted attention in tho Soutl: Division, Muuy of the Lorses that were thought to have been sudfering with the walady, and were used 3s a0 argu- mont to the effect that the epizoitic had been hiere for some time, zre now suffering with it. So far eight Zorses have died, all sutfering with otber complica- tions, mainly, however, of the lunge, The cffect of the " storm’ last night [Monday), and the weather to-day [Tuesdoy), has to Sggraveto the ~discise in B mumber of cases thut have fallen under my observation, although, genrrally speaking, the afificted animals are doing as wvell as could be expected. The number of fatal cases <will undoubtedly daily inerease until the disease has aced iis climaz, Some of those first affected are others are convalescing, Fewer borses have weels in the city than during any similar period for the last three months, This s owing no Goubt to the gereral disposition upon the part of Liorso owners to take il the care they coaud of their animale, 3ud I have no doukt this fact will also exercise a mark- ed infuence diminishing the mortality by the disease. Arrangements have been made tce Upion Rendering Company B semone e féad homses by 0% tearas, ‘and the. day scavenger contractor i also trying to ‘do the same, How soon this will be sccomplished I cannot say. The work was continucd until Seturday nigit, and u oum- ber of teams gent out yesterdsy (Mouday], but it was £00m found that the horses were not iu condition to do the work. To-day [Tuesday] there aie uo teais st work, Untll yesterday we bad but little tronble in ‘on the work incident to our deparbwent. 2B, PARMELEE o says that his horses are in a gocd condition; that they est their feed with relish and are live- $y. He hss one very sick animal, credledina bed of sawdust, about which mach concern is felt. His teams are stjll hauling baggage, and ‘he hopes to resume active operations next week. Mt. Parmelee says that our horses will Le weak b winter through, and it will bo Decessary to cere for them tenderly, to avoid relapses, but 2bat they will 21l be able to do as uch labor as ¢hey ought ever to do. : SOHN WENTWORTH'S ETOCK on the Summit ferm is free from the disease, He says he bes scattered all over his barus all thie various disinfectants known, and has turned his stock into icolated fields, hoping’ thereby to ayoid the maledy. THE TURF WILL SUFFER somewhat by the epidemic. A. J. Wright's very iluable mere, Moggio, died yestorday morning, £:10 o'clock. To extend more accurate knowl- elge regarding this dread disease, rhe isto_ba dissected to-day and the result published. Mr. Buck's turf horses, at Dexter Park, are all stricken down, and it is foared that one, st least, may delight no longer the jockeys of the race course. THE FIRE HORSES. The report from the Fire Department yoster- day morning was not quite 8o encouraging as on Mondey. Dr. Hofolk reports that eight are now quite seyiously ill, but Le trusts that judicious care and pleasant weather will return them to perfect vigor and heslth. The Chief’s horse is Fecovering, & change for the better having taken place Monday night. & HOW 4 LADY TREATED IT¥¥ EORSES. Alady of his city, who is the happy owner of »pair of handsome borses, lsy awake several nights thinking what sho would do if her derling quadrupeds wero suddenly seized with the dis- ease. Bhe thonght of hay and beef ten, of an- &imony, ersenic, carbonic_acid, etc., but finally pettled down on asafeetidn as being just the thing the horses required. So the first thing in €he morning, she directed the durkey conchman fo hernesa himself up ot once and proceed on & trot to the nearest drug stere for aload of asafeetida. He returned. The asafwtida, or horseafeetids, wps tied up in red flan- £l bags and hung in the mangers. Tho darkey s pext emgeged in cleaning out ihe stalls antil evervthing was as sweet and_as nice 28 & pretty girl's boudoir. The assfetida worked to &charm for s day or_two, until tho weather changed, &nd alerming indications of fmmediate prostration began to prosent themselves in and Bpon the horses. Their proud heads drooped, their brilliont and flashing eyes winked and lost their fire, and a suspicious flow from their noses sccompanied by a consumptive cough told that ¢he dear ones were under the weather, THE TereusE was hunted up, asd s homeeopathic recipe found. The medicine was purchased and thomild decoctions, as plensant and 2 easy to take 8s lemonpde, Were given with unfailing punctuality every half hour. The result was that yesterdsymorninga decided improvement wasap- ent, and the proepect of s speedyrestorationto E:nh,made glad the heart of the fair owner. Common senes tells. A stove taken from the library was put up in the barn so the horses can warm ther toes when they feel like it. Feather beds and blankets will be next in order. DBETTER HORSE DOCTORS NEEDED. Lopmmenting upon an article in the New York Times, to the eficet that the whole subject of the diseases of domestic animels hes received too little of the attention of scientific men, and that more value should be sef npon the services of those men who are really ekilled in the treat- ment of horses, the Turf, Field, and Farm says : x vast number of jgnorant pretenders who swarm e T have brought, tho practice of veterinary science into bad repute. It requires as much knowl- cdgo of anatomy sud medicine to be succesful in the doetoring of animals 28 it does in the doctoring of peopie. - And in treating the horse or the ox, the phy- Hician must bave keen eyes and rare judgment, sinca Homestic animals ure not gifted with speech and can- not make themselves understood. If 3 man is afficted with 8 pain in the head or a pain iu tue stomach, he can tell the doctor in very few words how he feels and point out to bim the seat of the maludy. With the horse it is different. The doctor has nofhing to guide him but the symptoms presented. And yet, notwithstanding that it is o clear to all thinking men that the veteri- nury surgeon should be gifted far sbove ordinary men, there are thousands of vagrant fellows ignorant of the first principles of anatomy, knowing nb- solutely nothing of chemistry, and even unable to write a line of good English, who get themselves up a8 practitioners among _domestic animols, These fellows aro about as well qualified to bo veterinary Burgeons a8 the Water strect bummer or ballot-box stuffer is fitted to play the role of 8 great statesman. That such vile pretend- ers_should bo able to pick up even s precarious living in the practice of their “profession ” is u disgraoe to Ahe country, They are, if possible,a greater inflic- tion upon the stock interest than five-dollar stallions; What the poor horse and patient ox have suffered at their bands will never be known. Of one thing we moy rest assured. So long as the stock-owners of tho country patronize these imposters on the score of cheapniess, men of true ability and high scicntific at- tainments’ will look down upon, or rather hold them- erlves aloof from the practice of veterinary medicine. Unmistakably we need reform in this particular. Wo bave good men in the profession, but unfortunately their number is limited. Let the breeders and pro- prietors of domestic animals unite to put down the jguorant pretenders, nnd then let us hold out grester inducements to the skilled practitioner than we now do. When the veterinary profession is well rid of the quacks, the tide of suffering will be checked, and with- ‘proper treatment we will save thousands of animals which, under present manipulations, die cruet and lingering deaths. IT IS RELATED OF ONE HOBSE at 8 livewy stable on West Jackson street, that while suffering acutely from pleuro- pueunionia, he became defirioufl and acted in tho wildest and most unexpected manner. Atone time, la- boring under the Lallncination that Le belonged t0 & circus, he sat down and pawed the air with his fore feet. On another occasion he attempted 1o scale his crib, wearing meanwhile an air of speculation in his eyes that was moro than equine. On several occasions he became wild and furions, but aftor. a paroxysm of delirious passion, the poor beast would collapse into & e tun of the utmost prostration. He is bet- ter mow, however, being among the con- vallescent. It is to Dbe hoped that he will forget the antics which he prac- ticed without being taught, for it would bo & proceeding the reverse of desirable for the driy- rof alight buggy should his horso suddenly sit down andpaw the air, or dreamily attempt to climb over the front gate and take its drivor, buggy and al], into the front parlor. THE OX BUSINESS. The attempts to substitute osen for horses frequently result in lndicrous mishaps. The principal difficulty seems to bo, how to hitch up the cnitters. It should be borne in mind that competent ox-drivers are not to be picked up on every street_comner in Chicago, and therefora thero is much uncertainty as to_the proper man- ner of addressing an ox in order to effect his movements, a5 well as with reference to the correct mode of hooking him to the wagon, He ought to %nll in harness, like & horse, but he won't. e insists upon a huge hickory contrivance known 1s & yoko, and desires to be attached to the wagon in the sim- plest manner consistent with the laws of pro- gression. A party of clerks on Fifth svenuo yesterday afternoon experienced considerablo difficulty in making the thing work. Thoy first sttached tug-ropes from thie yoke to the whip- pletrees, only to_encounter the most uncom- promising objections from the oxen, whose fool- ings found veut in kicks slow but disagrecable. In'the midst of their quandary came a timely suggestion from s looker-on who was evidently “efifnp in ox-gear. From him they learned that nothing but & chain of suitabla length was Decessary, and, when this had beon procured, they went on their way rejoicing, at the rate of twormiles per hour. 3 The streets were saved from utter desertion yesterday by a fow vehicles drawn by hardy men, Some by apparently well-dressed persons, who displayed on their backs and behind them the advertisoment of some well-known clothing es- tablishment. But there were more oxen on the streets vesterday than human beasts of burden or Lorses. A large number of ox teams could beseen in different parts of the city. Every large business houge in Chicago has four or five yoke of oxen at worknow doing tho heavy tesm- ing. Messrs. Field & Leiter had several yoke of these nseful and powerful beasts in their employ before the disease showed itself in tho city, and bave now soveral at work. On Monday, when they were first impressed into active scr- vice, they wero overloaded by tho boys, who seemed to think the ox some noar relative of the elephant. Even this load the patient brutes drew euccessfully, but they wilted little, and their capacity was recognized afterwards s ‘being not altogether unlimited. ‘Oxen are now being imported at & rapid rato. The demand is not yet supplied, and good ani- ‘mels meet withready sale. A countryman stood five yoke by the Chamber of Commerce, yester- day morning, and in one hour walked away with £1,050 in his pocket, leaving the oxen fo_the mercies and abuses of their new owners. Thero Were ox marlkets oll through the business por- tion of the city, and about them gathered mer- chants, ox-drivers, and curiosity-scekers. The average prices wero from $150 to $230, Mer- chants are generally buying their oxen, butsome are hiring at 810 & day, with driver. Hamlin, Hale & Co. are using five yoke of oxen, and iind them to give ample satisfaction. Their horses are not being worked at all t pres- ant. THE DUMMIES, Tho North Sido denizens, although by onr last great calamity, tho fire, they euffered bayond the power of Words to tell, ara more fortunate in the calamity now upon us. The North Side Railway put & dummy on their track yesterdsy afterncon, which runs with four cars, once every bout, the first train Jeaving Fullerton ave- nue at half-past 6 in the morning, and the last the corner of Michigan and Clark streets at 6 in the_evening. At Fullerton avenuo they con- nect with a dummy train for Lake View, A more popular line than this could mot bo_imsgined. T four cars will berdly contain all who wish to ride, and as one looks at them, he is glad that nothing but & dummy is to pull thelozd. The horses of this lino were not so well yesterday morning, being affected by the misty weather. Tho Chicago City Railway Company have had calemity after calamity. The dummy put on the track on Mondsy afternoon met with an accident near Twenty-second strcet the sume evening, whereby if was made uscless, and has not been run since. The people of the Sonth Sido, were they not relieved by the extra trains on the Illi- nois Contrel and other reilrosd lines, would be in'a sorry condition. MISCELLANEOUS ITEMS. In spite of all the efforts made by the railroad companies to land passengers as near as posei- blo to the hotels, & great deal of serious incon- venience is encountared at the depots. On Mon- day night the Atlantjc Express, on the Michigan Central Road, was about three hours behind time, and when it arrived, sbout midnight, a large number of lady travellers, who had ex- ected tomeet friends, were in & pitiable plight. ough the rain and mud they made their way 25 best they could to the nearest hotels, while Dot & few made a misersble night of it in tho de- pot shed. If the horse disease d oes not soon abate, every eort of living thing will be called into service to transfer goods, Yesterdsy morning, on Water street, & d‘:fim and — fwo boys, were ~ seen ha s gmall wegon filled with lumber. They p! ed their load along right merrily, and tho boys seemed a8 willing as the dog to vice versa. Upon inquiry of this tes the boys informed the reporter that theya\?zm paid fifty cents & load for hauling some lumber four h]ocia. Tvwo horses belonging to the Halsted street omnibus line wore taken out yesterdsy before being fully recovered, and, before going far, one fell dead, and the other died soon sfter being taken to the barn, the result of working them while convalesent. The bridge-turners report a falling off in tho number of vessels pasging the bridges since the epidemic came among us. _— Xndians at a Ci zed Dinners The delegations of Kiowas, Comanches, Ara- alioes, etc., now in the Easf, visited the Mary- d Institute Fair, Friday. The Baltimore Ga- EZ te says : « Afior they had been conducted to the apart- ment in the Maryland Institute assigned them, &1l of the young women took to the floor, some of them jn 2 sitting, but most of them in a re- clining position, snd spent the time in combing their bair with small cards, similar to thoss used for carding cotton and wool. Shortly after 12 o'clock the Indians were conducted to Shaw's Cottage Restaurant, on North High street, where dinner was prepared for them. As soon as dinner was announced, they did not need second invitation, but marched in single file to the dining-room, where two long tables were spread and abundsntly supplied with roust beef, potatoes, bread and butter, and fruit. Withont coremony, 88 soon a8 they reached the table the; %% and ate ravenously for a full haif hour. Most of them showed a remarkable fond- ness for butterand bread, and their mode of eating it was to first swallow a pieco of buttar about half the size of ar——mary eig, and then take a small piece c.joresd. The principal article of diet, however, was beef, and one squaw of about 16 years ate mine - large slices, equal to about two and & helf pounds. While the dinner was going on scarcely & word was_spoken by any of them ; indeed, there appeared to be no time for talking until the business in hand had been got through with, One large Indian, who sat ncar the entrance door of the dining-room, espieda fnl?te of pickled cucumbers, and he tool the gest om his plats. One-half of the ‘pickle went into his mouth and down his throat, but no sooner was it swallowed than be slapped both hands on his stomach, and rolied his eyes up- ward in horror. Evidentlyhe had not been used to that sort of relish. All finished eating at al- most the same moment of time, and at a signal from Captain Alvord, who had charge of them, they returned to the reception-room, when the women agaio went to the floor.” —_—————— A Palace of Trade, Messra, Giles, Bro, & Co, were fortunate in having completed all their preparations of building, Stting, and occupation of tholr superb jewelry premises, Nos. 65 and 208 Wabash avenue before the temporary em- bargo on street communications took place, snd for some days have been in occupancy of one of the most sumptuous establishments in the United States, The most exquisite taste has prevailed in everv feature of the beautiful store, and thers are novelties in its adorn= ment pecullarly its own.

A Fearful Crime in Eaet Tennessees From the Atlanta (Ga.) Herald, Nov, 2. A short time since an account of the murder of Captain Thomas J. Boyd, of Bweetwater, East Tennessee, was published in some of the New York papers, and the facts, ag they stated them, were derived from a source that was unreliable, on account of the antagonism of feeling existing at that time between Captain Boyd and the par- ties who furniehed the statement. It was also allogod tha there was o strong guspicion of the whole matter being a hoax, and that the mur- dered man was still alive and at large. The version we give of the affair is from a party who heard the evidence of the gentlomen ‘whowerewith Captain Boyd when he was murder- ed. From his statement it appears that Captain Boyd, soon after the war, engaged in the claim ‘business with Colonel Carter, of East Tennssses, 88 a clerk. After continuing with him unti he became familiar with the business, he then com- menced soliciting claims on his individual re- sponsibility. . His thorough acquaintance with the citi- zoms, and his established ropatation for hon- esty, secured him s large share of the claim business, and he was prosecuting his busi- ness with o success that gave him con- sidersble notoriety, and it was while endeavor- ing to secure gome evidence in regard to an im- Em’mnt caso, that he fell into the hands of this and of robbers, who brutally murdered him 2nd burned his body to prevent detection. The facts are a3 follows: Captain John T. Boyd, accompunied by E. P. Reagan, & Justice of the Peace, and & man named Hensley, loft Sweetwater on the morning of the 6th of Sep- tember for the purpose of going to Tillico Moun- tain, to take some tostimony in regard to some claims that hehadin his possession for collection. against the United States Government. After visiting several partics in the country along the route, they arrived at Captain B.'s father's house, where they spent the night. On the following morning (Triday) they re- sumed their journey, visiting soveral parties for the purpose of serving summons, and taking evidence to be used in certain cases then pend- ing for collection. About 12 m., they arrived at the foot of the Tillico Mountain, and stopped at the house of a friend for dinner. After dinner, and resting for a short time, they bade adieu to their friend, and commenced the toilsome agcent of the mountain. After reaching the summit. 2nd resting their tired horses for 2 moment, and surveying the grand panorama that spread out before them, they proceeded on their way across the mountein. The mountains in this section of country are very broken, their surfaces dotted with high peaks or eminences, while occasionally an immense gorge breaks off from the road, and desoends almost precipitous- 1y to the bsso. These mountain gorges nre t{ickly set with an almost impenetrable growth of ivy and Inurel, with en occasional pine, strag- gling for & hold upon its side. The party having proceeded across the moun- tain, were descending the further slope when they arrived at Laurel Branch, a clear and beau- tiful stream that broaks from the mountain side and flows on through & canopy of laurel and ivy, until it renches the mountain’s base. Here the party halted to let their horses drink, when sul- enly 1 band of armed, disguised men, rose up from the thick undergrowth that flanked the road on either side, and demanded their sur- render. Seeing the utter uaclessness of any at- tempt a4 resistance, thoy quietly submitte their demand. They were then taken from their horses and securely bound with cords, then blindfolded and placed upon their horses again, and carried some one and a half or two miles (as they supposed), when the party siopped. The bandages were_then removed from their eyes, and they were dismounted. Resgan and Hens- ley were_then more securcly bound by & cord around their ankles, and wero then loit layin; upon the ground. 'Captain Boyd was Carri about fifty yards from the spot to the brew of u stoep bill or gorge, tho parties remarkingthat they had “ got the old fox at last,” and telling him that they were going to kill him. Upon Lis attempting to pload with them, they stu;igad him, teliing him it ¢ would do no ghood, " a5 they intended to kill him. One of the partythen drow o pistol and fired st Captain B. who was standing with his hands tied, powerless_to offer any opposition. A socond shot was fired quickly after the first, when he fell to the ground and rolled down the declivity out of sight of his friends, who were compellod to Witness this murder without the power to aid. Afterwards several other shots were heard which were su posed to have been fired into his bo% after rolled out of sight. The murderers then came Dback to Reagan and Hensley, who were calmly awaiting their turn, They unbound them and carricd them off some distance into one of those thickly shaded gorges, when theilon thom again secarely bound until after dark, whea theg Te- turned, telling them that thoy had concluded not to kill thom, s they had ‘“got the man thoy wanted.” Tho purty then unbound them and left them to their fate. They wandered among the moun- tain fastnesses all night, without food and with the knowledge of the horrible tragedy occupy- ing their minds. At last tho dawning of day ‘brought with it the wolcome light that guided them to a friendly path that led them down the mountain to a neighboring settlement. When relating the story of the terrible tragedy, & num- Der of citizens collected together and proceeded to the spot where the terrible scone was r.smtc!adé thiat hurried an innocent man into etornity, an plunged a family and friends into unutterable griof and sorrow. Arriving upon the ground, they discovered a short distance from the ecene of the murder, the burnt and charred body of the unfortunate man, The blood ulr’mn the rocks and some of the pa- pers of the decoased, that were found & short distance from the scene of tho murder, and the statement made by two of his friends was evi- dence sufficient thint they ad attempted to con- coal their crime by barning the body of the un- fortunate man, A Caroner's jury was summon- ed to set upon the case sud ascertain the facts connacted with the torrible affair. .The United Btates officials, howover, interfered, and pre- vented the jurg from acting at the time, and we Dave been unable since that time fo ascertainthe final result of the investigations in the case. The opinions of the uuprejudiced is that he was murdered, not only for his moncy, but for the purpose of gratifying some feelings of per- sonal hatred—tho result of an antagonism of feeling during tho late war—Captain Boyd be- ing in the Rebel service. At any rato, the matter is involved in a maze of mystery that time alone will solve, and the public will “anxiously await such developments as will finally settle the ques- tion in disputo, reliove the innocent, and visit upon the fimlly that punishment that their crime 50 richly deserves. ¢ RRepairing,’”” as Understood in The Navy Yards. Correspondence of the Cincinnati Commercial. Tho Navy Yard at Portsmouth is an economi- cal institution. There is one vessel here of im- monso size. Her name, I think, is the Illinois. They began to build her some years ago, and be- fore they iot up to the top, the bottom was rot- ten. 8o they are now tearing her to pieces. As 1 said, her eize is huge, and the amount of tim- ber in her is beyond any power of description. Bhe is stayed, and bolted, and stanchioned, and appears as though she must be a miracle of strength. What was not massive oak was solid iron, and, in her presence, one_involun- tarily asks what is the need of ironclads? Standing on the ground and loeking up the top works of this leviathan of the seas, the height seems dizzy. They began to build her in 1864. Thay put greon wood in her hull, and you can now take & cane and run it clear through her bottom timbers that are one qr two feet thick. The onter sheeting of four-inch oak is solid and sound; 60 is the inner sheeting of similar mate- yial. All this is stayed through the ribs by enor- mous iron bolts every fow inches apart, but the Tibs between are liko dry punk, which crambles into impalpable powder as you take it into your hand. As I gazed upon this stupendous fabric snd thought of the hundreds of thousands of dollars that had been squandered, my mind again reverted to the benign inflnende of a pi- ternal government, and f began to perceive where the joke came in. Here was this mag- nificent vossel,” approaching completion, whose massive structure seemed able to resist the ghock of centurics and “ brave the lightninj and the gale,” ell going to ruin, before she ha even once kissed hor native element, and I was inclined to be irritated, but remembered that Uncle Sam i8 one of those good-natared individ- usls whom we can all plunder at will without any dogres of moral accountability attaching to the act, and that, therofore, thero is no use of making a fuss about it. They are now engaged in tearing the Illinois to pieces, and it requires 1,300 men to do it, and will take theso 1,300 men sbout ten years, at therate they aro going on. Add the wages of all theee, for all this time, to the original cost of the vessel, and to this the cost of the new ship to be built under the same name, 88 it will all be charged to_that account, and when the I1linois comes out, about $16,000,- 000 will cover the expense of her construction, The way it _is done In the circumlocution and red-taps office is this: To builds new veasel of war roquires an act of Congress, as I am told, and special ?pmgriafinns, and all that sort of thing, and, when these are asked for, the politicians and newspapors raiso a how!l of spasmodio patriotism, and, therefore, it is dangerous. But a ship can be repaired to any extent, involving any amount of money, and no noige about it. The dopartment, therefore, is now engaged in repairing the Ilinois. They have preserved two Anlmka from her spar-deck, and propose to build the balance of the boat o them, and call it after the original name ; so that you can ‘see where the $16,000,000 go to. But again, & boat might probably be built for gomewhat less than that sum, and here we see how many yards are fearful and wonderfal institutions. . The thirteen hundred men that are engaged in repairing the Illinois—well, they have beon engeged now sbouta month, and have, all put together, done about twenty-five cents' worth of work. They will be continued in their engndg:ment until early in November—the first Tueuday after the first Monday, I think—at an average of from three to four dollars a day, and will do, from this time until then, work to the amount of about thirty-seven and a half cents more—all in ‘‘repairing the Ilinois.” I 8aW '.hamrepmrx_ng, and I have no doubt but that I conld go into the Navy Yard, to-day, and Tepair with the best of them. “COMANCHE BILL.” Toothpicks Made of ‘‘Spotted Iorse’s’ .. Shin Bone. St. Louis Correspondence Cincinnati_Commercial., “Comanche Bill” is here, 2nd has procured himself to be interviewed by a verdant reporter. Bill is & littlo weazen-faced wretch with a sandy gontes and long, thick bair, not.particularly Clean, and ridiculous in its general appearance. There is nothing grand about him. He don’t look as if he was capable of being & great vil- lain, even. He hmlgs about the bar-room of the hotel, drinking all the fire-water he can get any- body to'pay for, and though he doesn't m himself * fresh,” he is always ready to be drawn into rehearsing the marvelous stories of his fights with red-skins. Tho fellow has s hungry, longing look, when he sees a party file in an: Tange themselves along the counter without in- viting him. I squandered a few drinks on Bill, the other night, and soon had him started, hell to-split, on the 0l atory. “Come, Bill,” said I gently, “cheeseit. I know all sbout your mother’s bair, and your Yow to kill an Injun for every bair in that por- tion of the scalp you recovered. But you may tell me about the toothpick made out of Spotted Horse's shin-bone, that you gave to Colonel Do- bey, and the one you ]gavs to Long John, and the one you gavo to Dave Hinckley, and those you gave to & hundred other people.” “Bj loakedlfigrieved and then indignant. The order for another drink pacified him, however, and, lowering his tone to a stage whisper, he continued : 4 VWell, the fact is, I did play it a little on the boys, with them toothpicks. Of course they wan’'t made ont o' no_ shin-bone o' ‘Spotted Hoss,' nor no other Injun. The sehin-bone of an old Injun like ‘Spotted Hosa’ is too durned * brickle’ for toothpicks, an’ besides that, shin-bones is mostly honey-combed. But thoy'll get jist 28 much eatisfaction out o' them tooth- picks 'zif they was Injun bones. It don’t do us Do harm to bumbn,g 'em a little, doesit? And ouneedn’t go an’ print this, nuther, or I may ,ve occasion to raise your hu'r.” ‘“But what do you make the toothpicks out of, illiam ?* “Well, T'll tell you. You see, in every deer’s fore ]o;i“fl:ere‘aaquner little splinter o' bone, about threo inches long, narrow, and 8s thin 28 a knife-blade. What it’s theres for I'll be durned ef I know, an’ I don’t see what's the use of havin’ ’em in the fore lega and not in the hind legs. Bat, anyhow, they're there, an’ when Ikill a deor Ialways cut out this sliver o’ bone_for luck, and keep it fora toothpick. I've killed almost a8 many deer as Injuns in my time, and have accumulated a good many toothpicks. Would you like to have one ? I got one in my pocket now. You kincallit a “‘Spotted Hoss” piece o ivory of you want to, an’ I'll gwar to it.’ “ Have another drink, William ?” «YWell, yes. I don't drink nothing_on the Plains, and when I come to the States I got to make up for lost time.” Two hours later I looked in and Bill was re- lating the old story to an open-mouthed gentle- man from Illinois, from whom the gentlemanly barkeeper was taking a fresh order.
