A REMARKABLE LIFE. Settling Downitn u‘luuly Life and a Fortune After a Career of Crime. Correspondence of the Philsdelphia Times. HoNEspALE, Pa., July2. —The news has just been received here of the marriage of George Avery in one of the far western states. The history of this young man—at one time the most notorious character in this entire section—has been quite as romantic as that of Hugo's hero, Jean Valjean In 1870 Ayery, then about 21 years of age, was charged with the murder of John Hayes, of Rowlands, Pike coun- ty, Pa. He was arrested and an ofticer detailed to bring him to Mil- ford. Evidence of the murder was reported to be so_conclusive that he could not possibly escape hanging. On their way to Milford the officer imbibed freely of liquor, and finally got “blind drunk.” Avery secured the keys which unlocked his hand- cufls and shackles and took them off, putting them in the bot tom of the wagon. He took the reins from the _stunidlyf drunken ofticer’s hands and drove to the nearest hotel, where he arrived with the officer in charge at a late hour. He put the drunken man in bed, roused him the next morning, got him in the wagon, on to Milford, the county seat of Pike county, when, after he had put the officer in hed at a hotel, he went up to the jail and delivered himself up to the keeper. He was confined there till September, 1870, when he was tried for murder, and to the great sur- prise of every one acquitted. 1mmo- diately after he was discharged by the court he was arrested, charged with burglary, convicted, and sent to the state's prison for a year and a half. He served his term, reading law during his confinement. When he left the Eastern Penitentiary he returned home, opened a law office, arrested several citizens who had testified against him when he was on trial for burglary, charging them with perjury, and, failing to make out his case was sentenced to pay the costs. He had no money, so he went to prison again, where he remained till his friends could scrape up enough money to get him out. - When hnally he be- came a free man he returned to his old home at Rowlands. From that time forward burglaries were numer- ous in that section, but never could evidence sufticient to convict Avery be obtained. After a while the young man went to Oil City, Pa., and hung out hus shingle as a lawyer. ' Clients were plenty and fees large. Avery was reaping a golden harvest, when he was convicted of forgery and sent to the Western penitentiary, at Alle- gheny City, for four years and eleven months. While there he fell in_love with the keeper's daughter, and she proposed to assist him to escape, but he refused to leave prison till his time was out. At the end of the term he returned again to Lacka- waxen; soon after professed religion, swindled a neighbor out of $100 and was induced by the neigh- bor, who enforced his arguments with a shot-gun, to refund the money. He then went to Luzerne county, where he got into a difficulty and went to the eastern penitentiary again for a short term. Upon being released the last time he went to the mining regions of the west, where he opened a law office and speculated in stocks. A few weeks ago he ‘‘struck it rich” and cleared over half a million dollars, gave up his stock speculation forever, sent for his finance, the prison-keep~. er's fair daughter, who went west, and they have just been married. Avery is only about 32 years of age, and writes to friends here that he is" now an honest, upright man, and that the next time he comes east it will be as a United States senator from one of the western states. TRADE ON THE MISSISSIPPL The Growth of the River Trade— How the Western Farmers Have Been Bonefited by the Jottias- From the New York Herald. Capt. James B. Eads of St. Louis was in town yesterday, at the Fifth Avenue hotel. He has been travel- ling a good deal of late, and expects to leave for Europe in a few weeks. He returned from Mexico on the same steamer with Gen. Grant, after having his ¢oncession to authorize the build- ing of a ship railroad across the isthmus of Tehuantepec confirmed by both houses of the Mexican congress, Recently he had been examining the harbor of Toronto, at the request of the Canadian government, }nr the ?urpulu of discovering its capacity for urther improvement. The Canadians appear to him to be earnestly engaged in leaving no stone unturned toward utilizing all the advantages they pos- sess of securing the carrying trade of the west and northwest, and the im- provement of Toronto harboris an auxiliary step in this direction. Capt. Eads, in referring to the growth of business on the Mississippi river since the deepening of the water at New Orleans, said: ““The ship- ments of grain from the mouth of the river have increased forty-fold in six years. Before that time not half a million bushels of grain were shipped from New Orleans, while during the past year the exports were between 17,000,000 and 20,000,000 bushels. The cotton export has also greatly in- creased, and the cost of transporta- tion has been reduced §1 to $1.25 bale. The only drawback at this mo- ment to a rapid and continuous in- crease in the grain-carrying business is the lack of barge capacity. Mr. Jackson, president of the elevator company of St. Louis, tells me that they could do twice as much ship- ping if they had the barges. So great 1s the pressure onZtheir resources that they have been forced to fix the price for carrying grain at 8 cents a bushel when it would pay them to carry it at 3 cents if they had the accommoda- tion; but of course efforts are fast being made to meet the wants of shippers, and the present state of af- fairs only goes to show that a strong and widespread appreciation of the alvaniages of the Mississippi river as a channel transpor- talion has taken hold out west. Railroad iron from abroad in- terded for roads in the northwest now cones to New Orleans, though it for- meily went by way of New York and the Erie canal. The Mississippi #hreitens at no distant day to be a seriows rival of the Erie canal, and in of order that the latter's capacity may be enlarge the stated ought to abolish the tolls on it. “People think it is an idle boast that the deepening of the water at the mouth of the Mississippi river saves the states tributary to the river 825, 000,000 a year, but figures prove that it does. There were about two thous and million bushels of grain produced in the entire country last year, and three-fourths of that quantity came from the states tributary to the Mis sissippi. A saving of a cent a bushel on that amount would be 815,000,000, but the actual saving cannot be less than bc a bushel, and if it were not there would be no inducement for the trade to go that way in preference to other routes.” “What is the present condition of the mouth of the river?” ““There are twenty-nine water at low tide, so that the vessels can come into port at any time, day or night. This they cannot do here, but must wait at Sandy Hook until the tide rises on the bar.” “What improvements are contem plated on the river above New Or feet of largest a proposition originally to devote £5,000,000 to the improve ment of the river above, but this was cut down to 81,000,000, which under a commission appointed for the pur pose, will be applied initially to the work of improvement ata point in the river about 100 miies below Cairo,” “What average debt of water is it possible to secure on the main portion of the river! “It is perfectly practicable cure 20 feet of water from down.” “How long does low water inter- fere with navigation tc any extent?” “‘For three months of the year— September, October and November,” “What other shipping ports are there on the river besides St. Louis ¢ *‘Cairo must become a great ship- [\ing point. It is already doinga large business. Davenport and other places are mentioned, and, as I said before, there appears to be nothing to stop the increase in the trafti the river but the want of sufficient means of conveyance. to se- Cairo ‘I'HE RAILROADS. Basis of Agreement Between the Union Pacific and Santa Fe Roads. The agreement between the Atchi- son, Topeka & Santa Fe and the Southern Pacific regarding through freight traftic over the southern route to the Pacific coast provides that the Union Pacific shall not compete for business to New Mexico and Arizona points, while the Atchison, Topeka & Santa Fe agrees not to take any busi- ness to Utah and Nevada Points. For California and Pacific coast business the Union Pacific and Southern routes can compete, but the rates by both lines will be the same. The new agreement, therefore, will be of little benefit to anybody and will not change the course of the Pacific business materially. The new route is the natural and direct route for New Mexico and Arizona, and busi- ness, for points in those territories naturally belongs to it just as the Utah and Nevada traffic naturally in- heres to the Union Pacifle. As far as Pacific coast trade is concerned, the Unton Pacific will suffer but little from the new competition, as, with equal rates, it will get most of the business, except that for Southern California points. At equal rates shippers to California will prefer the Union Pacific, as it takes two to three days less time to ship freight over the Union Pacific than over the southern Toute, It spite of the new agreement be- tween the Southern Pacific and the Atchison, Topeka & Santa Fe rail- roads, the Union Paciffc will continue to have a monopoly on the Pacific business for about two years longer, for as long as the Atchison, Topeka & Santa Fe is compelled to charge the same rates as the Union Pacific coast points there cannot be said to be any competition, In less than two years the Atchison, Topeka & Santa Fe will have a direct route to San Francisco via the Atlantic & Pacitic Railway, which is now in the course of construction, and is already completed and in running order from Albuquerque to the Utah line. This route when completed will be able to fully compete with the Union Pacific for Pacfic coast business, being as available route and nearly as short, As this entire line is controlled by the Atchison, Topeka & Santa Fe, it will be able to make any rates it chooses without interference or dicta- tion from other parties. A Nevada Paint Mine. Oarson Appesl, The ledge of terrasienna discovered by H. R. Logan, of Empire, near the Carson river, has been practically tested by house and sign painters in Carson, and ull pronounce it equal in all respocts to the burnt sienna which sells in San Francisco at 22 cents a 1pound. The ledge 1s a blanket forma- tion, and is eight feet in depth. The supply is inexhaustible, and all that has been so far found simply has to be ground up and mixed with oil and it 18 roady for use. An Appeal reporter was shown samples of it yesterday. Two coats is sufticient, and when var- nished is of a bright cherry color, and when placed alongside the paint man- ufactured in San Francisco an expert cannot tell the difference. When taken from the ground it looks like red chalk, and can be made into paint on the spot by simply mixing it with saliva, The Indians use it to paint their faces, and manufacture it by combining it with fish oil. Mr. Logan says that he can menufacture it by the ton, and coin money at five cents apound. The dome of the capitol needs to be painted, and what would be more appropriate than to have it covered with paint taken from Nevada soil? Heavy Cattle Losses Walla Walla (Wash, Ter.) Statcsman, The annual rodeos having been finished, full accounts of the losses of cattle during the last severe winter in the Snake and Columbia river basin up to the British line are now coming in. Tt has been the most severe win- ter on record, even the bad year of 1861-'2 has been thrown into the shade. Mossrs.
