Brown et al. against the Chesapeake and Ohio Canal Company Wm. H. Marbury , by Linden Kent, filed a petition to become party complainant and asking that his claim for ¢ ‘3, with interest from July | 6, 1840, be declared a prior lien and be paid | before the mortgages are satisficd. This claim is probably the oldest growing cut of the assets ef the Potomac Company organized in 1784. The plaintiff files with the petition a sketch of his claim, It shows that the Bank of Alexan- dria was one of the stockholders of the Poto- mac Company, of which Gen. Washington was & projector; that the canal company took pos- Session of the works of the Potomac Company and assumed its indebtedness, and that the act incorporatigg the canal company provided that “as long as€here should be any creditor of the Potomac Company who shall have not vested his demand against the same in Chesa- peake and Ohio canal stock the canal company shall be obliged to pay to such creditors such dividend or portions of net amount of the revenues of the Potomac Company on an aver- age of the last five years of its existence as the demands of the creditors at that time may bear to the whole debt ot $175,800, but whien e supposed to have been about 3 per cent on @175.500 if the interest on the debts of the com- pany be not included.” In April. 1834, the directors of the canal Company resolved to provide for the payment of those dividends to such creditors as should accept the terms before July 1, 1836, the pay- ment to be from the tolls which should not be indispensable for the completion of the canal below dam No. 5. It is further stated that the Bank of Alexandria had failed aud the claim had been transferred to the Bank of Potomac, and that Phmeas Janney, president, accepted the terms and the canal company executed its bond to that benk for the amount, with inter- est from January 1, 1836. Interest was paid to - 1840, and the Lond was transferred to ers’ Bank of Virginia, into which the k of Potomac was merged, and when the of the Farmers’ Bank went into the hands of a receiver the bond was sold, aud im 1330 it was assigned to the petitioner. — NOTES FROM ROCKVILLE. asse Mayor Owen to Resign—A Farm Sold— Personal and Social, Corresponience of Taz Evenixo Stan.

Sensational Statements From Maj. Bart- telot’s Diaries and Letters. ‘Tho “diaries and lotters of Maj, Barttelot,” the murdered commander of Stanley's rear guard, were published in London yesterday. They contain serious charges against the ican explorer, the book having been edited by the dead man’s brother, Walter Barttelott who, in the preface, says: ‘It is not likely that this book would have been written, or one word of its cantents ever published, had jus- tice been even partially done or any kindness shown by the leader of the expedition to the Officer who was left at Yamburga with his im- pediment, storos and baggag Charges of malignity. ingratitude, misrepre- sentation and desertion are then brought against Stanley. Beside other less important accusations, the issue presented is whether the misfortunes of the rear column were due to the indecision of Major Darttelot and that of his companions, or whether Stanley himself was rimarily responsibie, In hia book Mr. Stan- ley finds fault beeanse they did not follow the advance column as directed. Mr. Barttelot aims that his brother's diaries and letters, as wellas the testimony of the surviving officers, show that Stanley made it utterly impossible to carry out his orders, as he took all the strong men and those of good character with him, leaving to the rear guard the sick, feeble and incorrigible. Maj. Barttelot’s diaries show that Stanley threstened to blast his reputation with Lord Wolseley and to ruin his carcer in the army by writing to Maj. Tottenham. In referring to this incident Mr. Barttelot gives his brother's words: “Afterward, turning to me, Mr. Stan- loy said that it was in his power to ruin me in the service. Isaid to him that this was an empty threat, as it would take a great deal more than he could say to do that. He pun- ished me afterward by making me march to Leopoldville with seventy men who were noted for laziness and incapacitated for carrying loads, warning me that if I lost a single load to look out.” This expose of Stanley's character, as shown up by the diaries and letters, make spicy read- ing. The story includes an account of quarrel between Stanley and Jephson, on which occasion Stanley offered tofighthim. The publication has caused a great sensation in Dub- lin, and the papers are unanimous in express- ing the opinion that it was indiscreet, to say the t, to print what Darttelot, aman avowedly of a hasty tempor. never intended should sce the light. but that. however this may be, the charges call for a full and candid answer. Mr. Stanley refuses to be interviewed on the sub- ject. eee Monument to John Stark. A bronze statue of Maj. Gen. John Stark, the hero of the battlo of Benuington, was un- veiled at Concord, N.JI., yestorday. After an opening address by ex-Gov.

The Rifles returned to Waycross at 12:.0 last night. Mr. L. B, Varn states that he had positively no ige of the trouble and 4 no band atever in the affair. and that the dispatches wired from McDcnald’s Mill were untruthful 80 far as they rejated to ——— Fighting Over “Faust.” An important legal contest is likely to be fought over the international copyright law in connection with the production of “Faust.” Mr. Augustus Harris of the Theater Royal, Drury Lane, London, and Mr, Arthur Chappell, the well-known publisher, state that they in- tend to fight the matter to the bitter end. The writs are being prepared and wiil be served this week. In an interview Mr. Chuppell said the Berne convention of 1887 prohibited the _—- of “Faust” except as authorized. he case is complicated, as the copyright law is ambiguons, but we must fight it in order to get the highest legal decision on the matter. Signor Hago, who has just begun # season of Italian opera at the Covert Garden ‘Theater, thinks that both Mr.;Chappell and Mr. Harris are blufling, but will stand to their guns, He insists that the Berne convention does not cover the case of “Faust,” but,on the contrary, it protects him. The issue is one which is im- jortant alike to impressarios and music pub- jishers, ——$_$—$—$<6—___.. South Carolina Politics. R. K. Charles of Darlington county recently addressed an open letter through the News and Courier to Judge Haskell, the anti-Tillman candidate for governor, asking him to answer publicly this inquiry: “Do you rest your pros- pect of election solely on the white democratic vote, or do you and your friends intend to sup- plement your present following by an appeal to the republican or negro vote and to the ma- chinery of the election laws?” T! es and Courier today publishes Mr. Haskeli’s answer, in which he says: “Yes, wo ask for the vote not only of every white demo- crat, but of every colored democrat and every white or colored republican entitled under the laws of this state to vote. Weask them to vote for us because we believe that our ticket is composed of men who earnestly desire good government and who will to the best of their ability administer for the good of the whole people in obedience to the pledges put forth in the platform «nd utterances of the democratic party established in 1673. On the other band, we advise all citizens, without regard to party and race, to yote against the Tillman party, whieh epudiated, overthrown and trampled under foot those solemn pledges which should bind every democrat in this state and which are essential alike to the welfare and prosperity of either and both races.” The campaign is getting hotter every day. Capt ‘Tillman said yesterday that be expected to be governor if there wasa fair election. ‘The Haskell party claim that they are getting strength.

THE BREEDING OF HORSES, Senator Stanford Talks of His Ex- periences, HOW HE BECAME FIRST INTERESTED IX THE SUB- TROT OF BREEDING TROTTERS—HIS SYSTEM OF TRAINING DESCRIBED AT LENGTH—HE 18 SAT~ ISFIED WITS THE PROGRESS MADE. From the New York Times. Senator Leland Stanford of California was sitting in the lobby of the Windsor Hotel one day Jast week talking to a representative of the Times on thé subject of horses, He was en- thusiastic, as he always is when talking horse, and he was telling of his successes, both with trotters and runners. The wonderful filly Sunol had been # disappointment to him asa four-year-old, but he had hopes that she would come around all right again, now that she had been taken back to California. The Senator is a thorough believer in the ‘glorious climate of California” as 8 producer of horses as well as men and vegetables. He was also interested in the wolfare of that fast sprinter Racine, the first horse to break the long-standing mile record of the famous Ten Broeck, and im the career of the beautiful and high-class Gurgo. Both of these horses are the property of Senator Stanford, although they havo been trained in the stables and run in the colors of other men, ou evcr hear how I became interesto: sudden); Weil, I'll tell you, It was several yearsagoaud I had boen working very hard—so hard, in fact, that a physician ‘said that unless I took a rost I would break down altogether. My business interests were so grent and so pressing at that ti that I could not think of following this advice. Itold my physician thata rest from business was impossible, and that he must prescribe something else. He thought awhile, and then said that the next best thing was to occupy my mind in some other way, and to obtuin the re- lief and rest that is to be found indiversion, He suggested driving. I had at that time one pretty good horse, a roadster, and I followed his advice. I quickly became so interested in the ani- mal I possessed that I bought another and a better horse. I drove these and watched them carefully, I soon found myself trying to de- velop them into something better than they were, and I succeeded so well that I bought others and developed them. Almost before I realized it I had got together a fair etable and was deeply interested in the development of the horse. It was but a quick and natural step to breeding, and I made it with enthusiasm. “In the cld days when we washed gold in the mines there was a certain sort of dust that could not be separated from the sand except with the use of a magnet. We used to put the magnet in the dirt and the gold would stick to it, In my leisuce moments from mining I was wont to amuso myself by experimenting with my magnet, 1t was the common horseshoe kind, aud I would dip itinto a heap of iron tacks and keep adding to its burden until the limit of its strength was reached, Then I would strip away the tacks and load up the magnet again, I repeated this ngain and again autil I found that the power of the magne? was seri- ously impaired, I succeeded in reducing that power to one-third of what it was originally, and I think fhatI could have destroyed it al- together by simply overtaxing it, although I never experimented that far. When I became interested in the deveiopinent of the horse I recalled those idie moments with the magnet, and I reasoned that the power of a horse could be destroyed just as readily by over- taxing as that of the magnet. At that time it was the custom in train- ing horses to tax their endurance to the utmost, They were given miles of jogging and were worked until they were exhausted. his seemed to me to be all wrong. It was just what [ had done with my old magnet, and [ was convinced that it left the horse with impaired strength and endurance each time it was done, The more I thought about the matter the more I became convinced that the proper way to de- velop the horse was to keep every cifort de- manded of him well within his powers. He should not be worked until he was exhausted, but he should be trained to make one supreme effort when his powers wero at their best. “I applied this theory, and I havo not only had remarkable success myself, but I have lived to see the whole system of training trot- ting horses revolutionized. There was a time when @ trotter was supposed to be immature until he was nine or ten years old. Now we have three and four-year-olds trotting close down to record time, and even yearlings are trained. Personally, Iam not a little proud of holding the two, threo and four-year-old rec- ords, and I attribute that success eat tothe system of training suggested to me by the min- ing magnet and inaugurated by mo as a rélief from business cares, ; “From developing the horse by training it was but another step to developing him by feeding, and my interest in the horse and my love for him became so great that I was impelled to add breading to training. Now, I Thad seen that the horse possessed a power analogous to that of the magnet. 1 reasoned that this was an unintelligent though active force. Any kind of a horse will trot until he is urged toa point beyond his trotting powors aud then he will break into a gallop. ‘This is true of anything from a Percheron to a thor- oughbred. { concluded that if I could develop in the horse the intelligence necessary to make him trotinstead of run I had the problem solved. ‘This had to be done by breeding as well as training, and so I undertook the task. “I bred thoroughbred mares to standard- bred trotters that I might get tho speed and gameness of the one and the coolness and en- durance of the other, and then I bred again with a view to developing the trot as a natural gait. Iam satisfied with the progress I have made so far,aud lam convinced that event- ually horses will be bred so that they will pro- fer trotting to running, and that their greatest speed will be brought out in trotting. In other words, the horse will be 60 bred that the trot will be his natural gait and consequently the easiost for him.” 20 —___— Cannot Upset This Boat. The members of the government board of in- spection and survey, comprising Rear Admiral Lewis, A. Kimberly, Capt. Henry Erben, Chief Engineer W. G. Beuhler, Lieut. L. C. Logan and Naval Constructor John F. Hanscom, went to Wilmington yesterday to inspect and report on the new steam life boat constructed by Capt. Francia L. Norton. ‘The peculiar advan- tage claimed by Capt. Norton for his boat is that it cannot be capsized, The vessel ha: double hull. The water is admitted to the in- tervening space by holes in the external hull. ‘This virtually floats onthe inside shell and floats the outer hull, The wings, or bilges, at the sides are filled with which is com- pressed by the water and acts asa cushion, preventing capsizing or rolling. Capt. Norton will start on November 1 on a trip across the Atlantic. Tho dimensions of the boat are: Length over all, 58 feet; beam, 1234 feet; depth, 634 feet; 'displace- ment, 25 tons, ‘She compound surface con- densing engines whieh the Pusey & Jones Com- pany have placed in the yacht have cylinders of 5}¢ and 10 inches diameter and 8 inch stroke. The propeller is three-bladed and 8 foot in diameter. The boiler is 5!¢x5 feet and 1s tested to stand @ pressure of 180 pounds to the square inch. ——_——_+-o-—_____. Peculiar Case of Poisoning. Four persons employed at the Quaker City dye works, Howard and Oxford streets, Phila- deiphia, were poisoned yesterday in a peculiar manner. Two of them will dio. For a week pasta chemist has been engaged in experi- menting with a dye. Directly beneath the laboratory is the sessing room in which the strect clothes of the employes are kept. It is supposed that the ingredients used by the chemist in his exporiments formed a compound which produced prussic acid, and that some of the deadly Suid leaked through the floor of the laboratory tothe dressing room and satu: rated somo of the clothing there. Bernard Hughes entered the dressing room about noon and camo complaining of feeling ill, His face was of indigo huc and he was conveyed atonce to St. Mary’s Hospital. Ry the time he reached the institution his heart had almost ceased to beat. James Tighe, Walter Spell- man and Wm. Eberhart, who went into the dressing room after Hughes, were seized with the same symptoms, ‘lhe two were taken to the same hospital and Eberhart was carried home. A physician visited the dye works to discover, if possible, the cause of the men’s illness. He at once detected the odor of prussic acid, and although the chemist denied using it in his experiments, he learned enough to convince him that other chemicals used had formed the compound. The men had inhaled the fumes of this pgp ‘The physi- cians attending Hughes Eberhart say they will probably dic.

THE EVENING STAR ts offered to the pubs lic, in good faith and with confidence, as THB BEST LOCAL ADVERTISING MEDIUM IN THE UNITED STATES. In point of fact, ® may be truthfully said that it is without as equal in this respect any where in the world These averments are borne out by the figures given below, which are compiled from the sworn weekly statements printed in the paper on exch Monday in the year, and condensed from the sworn tabular statements showing the average daily circulation of the paper during the year 1859, published ig Taz Stas on the 18th of January, 1590, Briefly stated, the pointe upon which the above claim is based are these: That— 1, The Star bas three times the cirea- lation of auy other paper in Washing» ton! 2, The Star’s circulation in Washing» ton is doubte that of all the other daily Papers published im the city added te gether!! 3. ihe Star has s larger and fuller circniation in the city where printed, proportion to reading and purchase ing pops tion, than any other news paper in the world!!! 4.
