\ 1@ A VALUABLE DISCSVERY. Immense Quantities of Tin Cre on the Shores of Lake Superior. ——__+—_—— Rezu!t of the Most Recent Exploration—Speci- mong Submitted for Assay—A Yield of Twenty-eight to Thirty-three Per Cent of Good Metal, To the'discovery of mineral deposits on the shores ‘and beneath the bed of Lake Supertor there seems to be no end. The extraordinarily rich mines of native copper of that region have attracted the attention of the world, while its mountains of un- srpassed fron ore are nearly as widely known. ‘More recently exceedingly rich deposits of silver “Bave been found and profitably worked on the nortn shore, near Thunder Bay, while other de- posits of the same metal have just beem discovered on the Iron River, in the vicinity of the Porcupine Mountains, on the south coast. Reports of gold Giscoveries in the immediate vicinity of the lake, ‘at various points about its westerly end, reach us, with every evidence of credibility, But more valuable far than all these is the recent discovery of tin ore in the same prolific quantities and richness that characterize all the deposits of that wonderful country. This discovery,’ the latest and as yet the least developed of any of the mineral discoveries of the region, promises to be the most important ‘and valuable because of the scarcity of the metal ‘on this Continent and its universal use in this age of the world. There have been several slight ‘traces of tan ore found in various localities in the United States and Mexico; but none of them have developed the metal in sufficient quantities to fepay the cost of mining. Some years ago the United States government, realizing the value and ‘mportance of this metal, offered a reward of $100,000 for its discovery in quantities suMicient to justify its miming, and the Canadian authorities also offered a liberal reward for the same object. Both of these offers, alter standing open for years without accomplishing the desired purpose, were subsequently withdrawn. Now American enter- rise and energy have brought to light what these targe rewards failed to disclose, The deposits which have been so recently discovered are vir- ually inexhaustible, and according to the analy- ses of the ores that have been made are, like the other metallic deposits of the Lake Superior re- ‘gion, of unexampled richness, A few years agoa vein of virgin silver was dis- covered on anearly submerged islet, just off the ‘entrance to Thunder Bay, on the north shore of ‘the lake. This discovery was followed by the formation of a company, with ample capital, that «is vow working a that point one of the most suc- cersiul silver mines in the world. This discovery ‘stimulated the zeal of explorers, with whom the whole north shore was soon covered. These en- ‘terprising searchers after hidden wealth soon un- earthed other beds of silver along the coast in the vicinity’of Thunder Bay and 100 miles back in the interior, in the region of Shebandowan Lake, brought to light promising beds of quartz richly studded with gold. This discovery has remained im abeyance until the present time, it is alleged, because of a dispute between the Provinces of Ontario and Manitebaas to the ownerstip of the soil, and the consequent inability of the dis- coverers to obtain patents jor the land, Bat the adventurous exploring parties hat pushed out in other directions from Yhunder Bay were equally successful in their discoveries, and more so in their ability to secure title to the lands.

Her NEW YORK HERALD, MONDAY, FEBRUARY 24, 1873.—-TRIPLE SHEET. A TERRIBLE TRAGEDY, —-_——_ A Beautifal. Young Lady Burned to Beath in Yorkville—Her Brother In- jared in the Attempt to Save Her Lite— The Grief of Her Friends. Yesterday morning, about seven o’clock, © sad and painfal accident oecurred in Yorkville, which Tesulted in the death of one of the victims, a beau- tiful and accomplished young lady of about twenty- two years of age. The young lady who lost her hfe was a Miss Elizabeth L, McGuinness, residing at 1,563 Third avenue. Itappears that she was in the act of kindling a fire in a stove, for the purpose of pre- paring breakfast for the family, when her elothing Owing to the inflam. SCREAMS FOR HELP brought her brother and father to her assistance, who did everything in their power to put out the fire that was literally consuming her body, but all their efforts to save ber were of no avail, the fire had done its work, and she lingered until four o’clock in the afternoon, when deata put an end to der sufferings, . Her brother stated that he was lying in bed in the next room to that in which the accident oc- curred, and, hearing his sister’s screams, ran into the apartment, and there a sight met his gaze which almost paralyzed him. He tried to put out the Names with his hands, but did not succeed. He then ran back to his room and procured a b!anket, which he quickly wrapped around the body of his sister. By this means he succeeded in PUTTING OUT THE FIRE, * Doctors White, Studly and McGuire were called in to attend the sufferer, They did all that science and medicine could do, but they were unable to save her life. Miss McGuinness was conscious up to the moment of her death, Her suiferings were terrible, “fhe members of the family and her sfriends stood by her bedside, trying all in their power to alleviate her agony, but all te no purpose, ‘The neighbors speak very highly of her. ‘hey say that she was ® young lady of HIGH ACCOMPLISAMENTS, and was beloved by eee one who knew her, Her brother, Mr. Patrick McGuinness, who hed triea to save her life, was terribly burned about the hands, He was in last evening when the reporter called, and his sufferings with the loss of his sister and the pain ef his burns were intense. While he was speaking he was painfaliy affected, ‘ears ran down his cheeks, He said, “I don’t mind the pain that the burns give me. It is the Joss of my dear sister that gives me the most agony. She was the best girl that ever lived.” THE FATHER of the young man sat by the bedside of his son try- ing to calm him, but his agony was too heavy, and he refused to be comforted. 4 : The rest of the family, consisting of two other brothers, were terribly affected, and though they are strong men, they could not stay the tears that conrsed down their cheeks. This sad accident has cast & deep gloom over a once happy househoid, and it will take years to re- move it, if it ever can be removed, The Coroner was notified, and will probably hold an inquest to-morrow. ARKANSAS? DEFEATED CiVIL RIGHTS. —_—+—_——. LitrLe Roox, Feb. 17, 1873, The defeat of the important move on the part of the colored members of the Legislature has already been telegraphed you. On Friday, February 7, Mr. Dawson, @ colored member of the State Senate, managed to get a@ civil rights bill through that body. The bill provided that the colored people should have equal accommodations with the white on steamboats and cars, &c.; that they should not be refused accommodation at any hotel, drink at any bar nor meals at any eating house; that the colored children should be admitted to the same schools as the white children, and various minor details. The penalties were fixed at $500 for each offence, one-half to go to the State and the other to the iadividual aggrieved, On Mon- day, the 10th, the bill came up on its third reading in the House and the week was spent in debates proand con, and at last was, on Friday, the 14th, voted upon. Seme of the colored mem- bers became eloquent in defence of the bill, and Copeland, one of their number, made a telling speech. Evidently unexpectedly to the colored gentiemen many of the prominent republicans op- posed the bili, basing their arguments principally on the fact that it was unconstitutional for a legis- lative body to legislate what apy man should do with his private property—4.e., hotels, restaurants, &c.—inasmuch as they, baving paid for licenses, had complied with all the requirements of the law. They also said that tney saw no reason that the chidren sheuld be mingicd, as the blacks had already as goed schools as the whites, and what more could be desired * One | of them said also that he objected to one-half the penalty going to the persen aggrieved, saying that ubder Uiis Clause @ Man might make it very profit- able to go aboue getting aggrieved. phe. were in favor of a bill, and would vote for it, giving the colored people equal accommodations for their mouey on all public conveyances, Several of them thonght that the passage of this bill would be a firebrand thrown among the people of the State, and that the reswit would be felt in the next elec- tion, 48, if the disfranchising clauses in the con- stitution were dome away with, the republicans would stand a bad show in the next campaign un less they legislatea ane The democrats, as a body, were agaiust the bill, An incident occurred on Thursday, evening which, doubtless, had more or less imfuence on the resuit, Furbush, a colored member of the House, went into a restaurant under the Metro- politan Horel and called for something to eat. The waiter told him to come back in an hour or 80 and he would have tt ready. Furbush, thinking that this was equivalent to refusing him, got into an altercation with the walter and struck him; sub- sequently, on the Bad yoadsped appearing, he made a lunge at him, and, missing him, ran his fist into a stone wall, The result was Mr. Furbush was arrested and brought before a police justice the mext morning and fined $75 for his amusement. It was estimated by lobbyists that tue bill would pass by one vote, but two oi the members who had declared their intention of not voting were in- duced to do so and voted against the bill.

Pittssuro, Feb, 21, 1873, The fact of the financial embarrassments of the firm of Wood, Sons & Co., extensive iron manufac- turers, has been a prominent topic of conversation in business circles for some days, but it was not thought that their complications were so serious as to compel them to make an arrangement at as early adate as to-day, It appears that the frm had a aumber of extensive contracts for railroad iron, and iu payment therefor were satisficd with notes with uausually long time to run—so long, in- decd, that the banks declined to discount the pa- per. This action brought about @ crisis, for a few days ago @ considerable amount of the paper of the firm went to protest, and their busi- ness consequently was interrupted. The total estimate of the Mabilities of the firm has not been precisely ascertained, but the supposition is that they will reach $2,250,000, The paper which they have in their possession foots up to something over one million eigkt hundred thousand dollars, and their ether debts to over four hundred thousand dollars, The assets of the company ged to are al | be ample to cover all Habiiities, The firm own some very valuable rty, consistin; blast furnace: rolling aad rail mill at station, on the Pittsburg and Eagle Iron Works, in South Pittsburg, a vast con- cern, which, together with the stock, &c., are val- ued in the aggregate at $3,500,000. It ts also understood that the firm have at their Wheatland works something like four hundred thousand tons ef manufactured rails, contracted for by Colonel Tom Scott for the Texas Pacific Kuil- read.

Chicago’s Last and Bloodiest Mystery—A Man Found Brained in the Etreet at Midnight Cnicaqo, Ii., Feb. 20, 1873, On horror’s head are horrors accumulating. Chi- cago always has been jealous of New York afia has emulated her persistently in every branch. Of late Chicago’s competition has been confined to the murder trade, and our weekly record of murders committed, murderers convicted and executions stayed is well worthy of the metropolis itself. Raf ferty has just been sentenced at Waukegan to be hanged on March 7. George Driver, the wife mur- derer, has been sentenced to be hanged on the 14th, At Galesburg, Osborne’s life has been declared for- feited for a treble crime—outrage, roboery and murder, ofa character atrocious beyond even the average of this atrocious time. By way of contrast with these crimes wherein discovery has closely followed perpetration ana, in turn, has been waited apon nearly by conviction and sentence If not punishment, all Chicago is ring- ing just now with THE KENNALLY MYSTERY, ® mu:der in which tne completeness of the mur- derer’s bloody work is only equalled by the impen-- etrable secreoy in which he has enshrouded him- self sinee its commission. Had poor Kennally been the prey of flends of the air, wo, after beat- ing out his life, had fung his mangled body into the alley where it was found, it would have been im- possible for more utter ignorance to be displayed as to the manner, time and agency of his death. On the night of Sunday, the 9th instant, two officers on duty on Kenzie street saw, about midnight, a man running towards them, laboring apparently un- der great excitement. On being asked what was the matter he replied that an unknown man was dying in the street, in front of the saloon at 35, and that @ physician was wanted. Arriving at the place indicated the ofticers found a crowd collected around the prostrate form. The scene was in an alley at the rear of a saloon kept by a man named Callaghan. At the foot of a short fight of steps lay the man, his head in a pool of blood and mud, alive, but barely alive. No one present could identify him, The keeper of the saloon came hurriedly upon the scene in @ few moments, and asked what was up. On being told that a man was killed and he must take the body in he at first re- fused, but was ultimately induced by the officers to open his doors. On bringing the body to the light, it was found to be that of astout man of twenty- eight or thirty years. The vest was unbuttoned, the buttons in the shirt bosom were torn out, the collar and necktie were torn away, the hands were clenched rigidly and glued with congealed blood. All gave evidence of a fearful struggle tor life. How that struggie had terminated needed but one glance at the victim's head to tell. The face was covered with blood, which had oozed from the ears, eyes, mouth and nostrils. The lips were open and the eyes setin astony stare. On the left side of the head, above the ear, was a wound of so ter- rible a character that it left room for wonder and doubs wiether it iad been indicted by the hand of man, Subsequent medical examination slowed that the skull had been fractured from the lower portion of the parietal bone, down through the temporal bone, through the ear and across tiie base of the brain to the right ear. The brain was con- gested and inflamed, aud the unhappy man's BRAINS WERE OOZING FROM HIS EAR. ‘The skull was smashed to small bits—indeed, re- duced to a pulp at the spot where the crushing biew had falien, and the sutures, for nearly three inches, had been started apart like-the seams of a shipwrecked vessel! On the steps of the saloon near Which he lay were dark gouts of blood, and .a beer keg at the bottom bore the . dreadful imprint of a bloody hand, which the victim had evidently outstretched to save himself, The pool of blood where his maimed head had lain was about an incr in depth with an area of eighteen inches, ‘The officers laid the man in Callaghan’s saloon and wiped away the biood which concealed his features, when Callaghan ex- claimed that he knew the man, that it was his cousin, John Kennally, who lived on Brewer street, When the patrolmen suggested that his triends should be sent for Callaghan objected that it was hardty worth alarming them and appeared very anxious to hush matters up. Finally Kenually’s brother was found and the body removed, Death eusued at seven o'ciock in the evening, Kennally having lain until that time without moving a muscie or giving any signs of hfe or consciousness of pain, Of course the police were at once set to wo. k on what, at first, seemed an easy task, as it would have been naturally concluded that Ken- nally had been Killed in Callaghan’s saloon and tuen flung out into the street, or that the murder had been perpetrated 60 near that place that eyj- dence as to its perpetration and author would easily be forthcoming. How deceptive these reas- onabie hepes were to prove the a Gi will show. Kennally, it was found, was a fine young man of twenty-eight years, unmarried, who tiad been in this city but a year. He was employed in a hide and leather establishment, whose proprietors gave him an excellent character for steadiness, te earned good wages and had some money out at interest. This fact, at first, led to the supposition that he had been murdered tor his money, a suppo- sition speedily rendered untenable by the discoy- ery of some money in his pocket. On further investigation it was found that Kennally had been at Callaghan’s saloon during the Sunday, There, probably, he gotinto a quarrel with some Bridgeport roughs, as an officer at the railroad depot from which the whole party went on a railroad train to a funeral, heard them say they would go back after the funeral and fight it out. As to Kennally’s condition, Callaghan first said that he had only drank soine pop; then, contradict- ing himself, that he had taken several drinks of eat 60 that, Wien last seen, about half-past six in the evening, he was drunk and quarrelsome, Callaghan strenuouslyedeniea any knowledge of Kennally’s whereabouts from that hour till his body was picked up. His saloon, he said, was closed at about seven o'clock, though the evidence of other witnesses showed that it had been open after nine, aud full of customers, several of whom were dronk, He knew of no disturbance im his saloon or the vicinity ex- cept when, on Suaday aiternoon, he had put out some customers who had been disputing about the cost of seme drinks. The impression made by Cal- laghan’s evidence was net favorable to him, especially when the character of his house was aken into consideration. The officer on the beat examined the alley at eight o'clock, and again at ten on Sunday night, but found no signs of a body lying there. The barkeeper swore that he closed the saloon about eight He was drank, and 80 didn’t know anything abeut anything. Kennally had been at the saioon and had drank some whiskey, but was encaged in no quarrel, THE MYSTEKY GROWS DEEPER, Father Hayes, a Roman Catholic priest, assistant pastor at St. Stephen's church, wert on Sunday evening to call on the Callaghans about eight o’clock, He entered from the alley poy the rear way and found a drunken man tying against the door at the bead of the stairs upon some wood. On entering he told Mrs. Callaghan that the man was there. Taking a lamp she wen t, and seon returned, saying it was Joun Kennally, her hus- band’s cousin; that he was drunk, and thet as he was always ugly when in liquor she would not awaken him, Nothing more was said abeut tne man. Mr. Hayes remained with the Callaghans till eleven, or a few minutes after; then went home, accompanied by Callaghan. When next he saw Callaghan the latter came to ask him to come and see a dying man; but when Callaghan informed him that the dying man was Kennally, who had been lying drunk in the house, he refrained from administering the sacraments of the Uhurch, He only knew that the drunken man was Kennally from what Mrs. Callaghan had said, This was substantially all the evidence that could be ob- tained. The detectives examined the premises very thoroughly. They could flad no marks of a struggle, but discovered @ club used to hammer Spigots into barreis, which, the doctor held, would have been precisely the weapon wherewith to il flict the wounds found on the murdered man’ head. No one could be found who had heard of any disturbance in the house or in the alley near the house. ‘The wounds were of a character to render it Unpoonibie that they could have been re- ceived by # fall down stairs, which was Mr, Hayes’ theory, and it was equally impossible that the victim could hove received the blow and then Walked three steps to the spot where He was found, Eventually the jury had to return vet dict of murder agaiust “some person or persons unknowe,”’ and so, for the present, the case resta. es MARRIAGES AND DEATHS.
