Ssnig Sing Prison.
The village of Sing Sing is situa
ted in Westchester county N. Y. and
about thirty miles from New York
citv. It has 0,500 inhabitants, and
many palatial mansions and hand
some structures, all of which present
a vivid contrast to the grim, unpuin
ly building that stretches its huge
length along the edge of tLe Hudson
River, and known as the Sing Sing
Prison for the incarceration of males
The prison was erected by convicts
drafted from Auburn in the yea?
1825. It is operated upon what is
known as the congregate system, and
the prisonors labor in association
during the day, take their meals to
gether, and atti nd religous exercis
es in a body, but strict silence is
imposed upon them. Permmisdon
is occasionally granted them to have
communication with visitors, under
the keen eyes of a vigilant detective
The prison is built of marble, lias GOO
tiny grated windows, is 484 feet long
43 feet wide, 50 feet high, and con
tains 1,191 cells in six tiers. The
average monthly consumption of food
in the prison is: Flour 380 barrels:
potatoes 435 barrels, beef 35.000
pork 25,000 pounds, codfish 2,000
pounds; barley 800 pounds, and ma
ny minor articls.
The convicts march from their re
spective places of business to meals
in gangs of fifty and sixty. ihe
foremost man steps forward and be
gins to mark time, the second man
approaches him as closely as possiuU
places the right hand upon his shoul
der, the left upon the left hip and
takes up the military step. In this
way the entire number falls in and
arrayed in their striped uniform, the
long moving line is said to resemble
a gigantic reptile. Unless address

silence is maintained, and departure
from this rule being visited with
punishment. The modes of punish

dark cell and the paddle, and also
the bright cell on rations of dry
bread. The proportion of colored
convicts is five per cent. On en

Eating Negro.
We have read of the African tribes
eating eacli other. It now becomes
known that a white sailer has made
dainty meals off tho body of a color
ed servant on board the schooner
Sallie M. Steelman. On the 20th
January this schooner left Charles
ton, for Baltimore. A lie-vy gale
struck the ship and sprung a leak.
All the provisions gave out. Three
of the crew also gave out. George
Seaman, the colored man on board
became crazy, was killed and eaten
by the crew. Before leavirg the
schooner the crew became so crazed
with hunger that it was suggested
they would be obliged to east lots
for one of the number to furnish
food to keep the others alive. For
eight days nothing passed
their lips except fresh water
and tobacco, which appeased their
hunger only slightly. Finally one
of the sailors was killed in a quarrel
when his body was cut up, the up
per part was thrown overboard, and
the limbs were salted down for food.
From the thigh steaks were cut al
most before the flesh was cold and
boiled. These were eaten with a rel
ish by the starving men,
A Frozen City.
On the Michigan, side of Lake Hu
ron there is an inlet known as Sagi
naw Bay, During the seasons when
the waters of this bay are free from
ice, hundreds of fishermen find a
livelihood tor their familes there, in
Mackinan Trout. But the time
j soon comes when the bleak winter
: setting in these fishermen would be
| left destitute, but for a mode estab
lished whereby they are enabled
! to continue through the entire Win
! ter, when a bridge as ice covers the
bay for twenty miles out. The ice
is thick enough to bear a village, and
I the quick brain of the fishermen
stimulated by necessity, and aided
by the severity of the winters Michi
gan on the shores, seized upon the
plan of moving out upon the lake. As
the mercury rarely rises above zero
from the last of November till the
first of March, they are generally safe
for that length of time. T'lic houses
consist of but one room, are built on
wheels and resemble a photographer’s
portable house. They are furnished
with a chimney, and have a stove
perched upon a shelf, but are sup
plied with few comforts. There is a
square hole cut through the solid
floor, and the nets are dropped
through this, and the fish brought
up. Tlis village lies ten miles from
the shore, and besides the dwellings
has many markets and stores. The
clear atmosphere is invigorating and
healthy, and the inhabitants much
more contented than one would sup
pose possible in their frozen homes,
and they find their employment al
most as profitable as in Spring and
Summer. Every one if prepared for
a suddon change of temperature,
and at a moments warning can close
doors, and roil his family to shore.

REMINISCENCES OF STONEWALL
Jackson’s early life at
WEST POINT.
Gen. John Primer In Phlla. Weekly Times.
Y hen the chiy came for the exam
ination of the section in which
Jackson was placed, the poor fellw
was in a most unhappy state of
mind. His whole soul was bent ups
on passing. W lien he went to the
blackboard tlio pi-espiration was
streaming from his face, and
the whole examination his anxiety
was painful to witness. While trys
ing to work out his example in frac
tions the cuffs of his coat, first the
right and then the'left, were brought
into requisition to wipe off the pres
pirulion which streamed from his
face. But he passed creditably, and
I shad never forget how pleased he
looked as he was told that he could
take lis seat; and I think every
member of tho examining board
turned away his head to hide the
smile which could not be suppressed.
Examination over, then came the
encampment. The suit of jeans
replaced by the cadet uniform, and
then “Old Jack” looked, at a little
distance, like the most of plebs.
After encamptmcut came the sea
son for study, and you may be sure
that no time was idled away by “the
member of Clarkesburg.” Eevtr
was there such a boning (a West
Point expression for hard study.)
His whole life was devoted to the
one thing of preparing for the Janu
ary examination. Here he was
again successful, but the scene at
the blackboard, although in mid
winter, was repetition of the one in
June. He found himself rather low
down in his class, but he had learn
ed to study, and he had the hearty
sympathy and good-will of all tho
professors and instructors. At the
second June examination he passed
so well that he was well up iu class
and out of danger. But lie never
relaxed his hold. Through the
whole four years lie was one of tho
hardest students. At every exami
nation he rose higher and higher,
and had tho course been five years
instead of four I believe “Old Jack”
would have brought up in the Engi
neer Corps.
Jackson’s career in the army dur
ing the few yoais he remained in it
was highly creditable to him. He
commanded a section of Magruder’s
Battery at the storming of the castle
oi Chapultepec, and those of the
Officers who saw him on that occa
sion will never forget his coolness
and the doged courage with which
he held his position under a terrible
fire from the castle. He was of the
same older of man as George 11.
Thomas—men whom nothing could
daunt, and who were in the right
place, and whom nothing but death
could take from what they consider
ed their place of duty.
A Huge Ice Jlacliiiie,
The last steamer from New Orle
leans carried from this city an ice
machine constructed by the United
States Ice and Refrigerating Compa
ny, having a daily capacity of fifty
tons. The ga3 compressing pumps
with base attachments weigh nearly
50,000 pounds; dimensions, 13 feet
9 inches high;G feet and G inches
wide at base; the cylinder being 25
inches bore by 30 inches stroke. The
gas used for the production ot cold
is ammonia, being liquified by me
chanical compression, and inevapor
ating produces a cold 77 degrees be
low the freezing point. The cost
of manufacturing the ice in New
Orleans will not much exceed 81 per
ton. Senator Jones, of Nevada, is
the owner of the machine. —New

Small Boy on the Eagle. —The
Amcricon eagle is the largest and
powerfulest bird in the world, but
he is smaller than the ostrich,
which is more of a horse than a
bird. The eagle is a proud bird,
and don’t go round eatin’ worms and
cati pi liars, and biggin’ up tomato
plants like a hen does, but he Hies
through the air with its wings, and
sometimes swallers little chidren,
which is very sad. The eagle lives
sometimes to be several hundred
years old, which is a long time to
live. liicky Bartlett’s sister is an
old maid, and she is as old as an eagle
and she gets awful mad when the
fellers call her an old steak boiler.
There is several kinds of eagles, but
the United States eagle is the boss
bird, and can baste blazes out of any
bird that ever growed in Europe,
Asia or Africy. An eagle can fly
about a thousand miles in a very
short time. I should like to see
two eagles fight. 1 should like to
own an eagle.— Ex,
The New York Sun notes the im
provement m affairs m the Southern
States during the past twelve months
has been more marked than in any
other part of the country, as is evi
deuced by the steady decrease in the
amount of failures during the last
three years—from $20,000,000 in
1875 to 817,300,000 in 1877. These
figures speak well for Southern mer
chants, and cannot but greatly
strengthen their credit. It is be
lieved chat the Southern and South
western trade of the present year
will be largely in excess of that of
18 77. ______

The Kellogg 820,000.
By National Associated Press.
New York, Feb. 12.—A Sun
B ashington special says : There
were some inaccuracies in my dis
patch cn Saturday night about Kel
logg s confession as to the use of
money to secure the return of the
Hayes electors from Louisiana. I
was mistaken in saying that the mon
ey was originally raised in Chicago
on a note drawn by Kellogg and *’■
dorsed bv UK*—- °* Harwell. The
money B‘JO 000, borrowed in New
Orleans, and two of the visiting
statesmen became sureties for it.
One of the two was C. B. Farwell, of
Chicago. Subsequently, to repay
the 820,000 borrowed in New Or
leans, the money was obtained from
the Union National Bank of Chica
go, of which Mr. Ooolbaugli was
president. Mr. Coolbaugli was a
Democrat, and at the time the mon
ey was obtained, he did not know
that it was to make good money
porrowed in New Oi lcans which pur
jured testimony was bought by the
visiting statesmen, it was borrow
ed to pay the expenses of the visiting
statesmen. It was borrowed to pav
for counting in three Ilayes electors.
Kelogg did not give notes for the
amount of Louisiana, but as a pri
vate individual. lie subsequently
borrowed the money of the Union
National Rank, of Chicago, to make
good the loan negotiated in New Or
leans. Farwell told the truth when
he said that he did not know of $20,-
000 being borrowed of the L T nion
National Bank of Chicago to pay
the expenses of the visiting states
men to New Orleans. He ° told tho
truth when hesaid that he knew of no
note being given by Kelogg, as Gov
ernor of Louisianr, to the Union Na
tional Bank of Chicago. He t old
the truth, also, when lie said the
visiting statesmen from Illinois
paid their expenses to New Orleans
but if lie had been jdisposedjto tell the
whole truth without having the
questions put to him, he would
have told that the 820,000 raised
for the purpose I have already indi
cated, that it was to be made good
here, and that he was here three
weeks last December trying to have
it made good,* and that it was not
successful ; that lie told the whole
story to different parties here, who
are willing to tell all they know
about it, if he will authorize every
body who knows unyihiug about it
tell the whole tiuth.

i ho Senate had over a three hours
execu ive session. Most of
the time was taken up in the discus
sion of the nomination of Hilliard to
be Minister to Brazil. Ho was final
ly confirmed by a vote of twenty
eight to twelve, but not before one
or two Senators had turned the Sen
ate into a school for scandal., 1
ling led off , to the eo;i
.iiillation. lie submitted to the
Senate the charges that Hilliard was
an immoral character and had seduc
ed his seocrnl wife while his first wife
was living and on her deatli-bed; and
that, morcoyer. three months after
lie married his second wife she pre
sented him with a child. Conkling
characterized the appointment as a
disgrace to the administration, to
the country, and to the diplomatic
service, lie said it looked to him as
if tne administration had gone into
the police courts of the land in its

finished bis speech the elegant gen
tleman from New York seemed so
disgusted with the nomination he
put on his hat and walked out of the
Senate Chamber without waiting for
the vote. Hill, Yoorhees and Here
ford came to Hilliard’s defense.
Voorhces said he had intended to
vote against llilliards confirmation,
but inasmuch as the New York Sen
ator Struck below the belt, he pro
posed to give his vote in favor of con

without meaning it as a double in

belt, the Senate broke out in a horse
laugh, One Senator Suggested that
no Senator should vote on the case
unless guiltless of the charge laid at

The standard remedies for all diseases
of the lungs are Sciiexck’s Pulmonic
Syrup, Sctienck's Mandrake Pills, and
if taken before the lungs are destroyed
they cffecta speedy cure- To these med
icines Dr. J. 11. Scheuck, at Philadelphia
owes his unrivalled success in the treatment
of pulmonary diseases. The Pulmonic
Syrup ripens the morbid matter in the
lungs, nature throws it off by au < asy ex
pectoration, and the patient has relief from
the prostrating cough. The mandiake
Pills must be freely used to cleanse and
stimulate the stomach and liver; they re
move all obstructions, relax the gall blad
der and start the bile freely and the liver
is soon relieved. It assists the digestion
by toning up the stomach to a healthy con
dition. So that the t >otl and the Pulmon*-
ic Syrup wdl make good blood; then the
lungs heal, and the patient will surely g.-t
well if care is taken to avoid fresh cold.
Full directions accompany each prepa
hation. All who wish to comult Dr.
Schenck personally, can do so at his prin
cipal office, corner of Sixth and Arch Sts
Philadelphia, every Monday.

sufferers from pulmonary diseases.
It. is composed of herbal products, which
have a specific effect on tlio throat and
long's; detaches from the air cells all ir
ritating; matter; causes it to ho expecto

which produces the cough. A single doso
relieves the most distressing paroxysm,
soothes nervousness, and enables the suf
ferer to enjoy quiet rest at night. Being a
pleasant cordial, it tones the weak stom
