OX TIST IX AMERICA. The supposed tin-discovery near Ogden, Utah, is probably not so much of a fraud as was nastily alleged. I visited one of these newly-discovered mines three week* ago. The route to it led up a gulch, or canon, in f laces very narrow, and we had to walk up he toilsome ascent, in some places through a running stream of cold water. This canon had once been a Mormon bridle-path. After walking about three miles, we came out on an open slope, where we had a superb view of Salt Lake, and of many towns in the Valley. The ledge of tin. as supposed, waa nearly aa thick as an ordinary dwelling- house, audit appeared to run np from 00 to 100 feet, so thai it really seemed to be a large E oi tion of the mountain. Pieces of the stone, eld in the hand, indicated, "by their weight and metallic feel, that they were ores of some sort, and tin or magnetic iron seemed prob- able. The train which I took Eastward con- tained at leant a doaen persons making their way to New York, with ear- pet-sackw filled with specimens. Com- panies were being formed in Ogden amongst railroad employes, telegraph-opera- tors. Mormon laborers, and all aorta Of folks. A big tin mine in the United States would be an immensely valuable property. We possess one already at San Jacinto, in South- ern California; but it is remote, and has, up to this time, been developed bnt little. Gen- eral C. J. Hutchinson, of San Francisco, brought on a bar of this tin, afoot and a half long, weighing probably 40 pounds, and pre- sented it to the Commissioner of the Land Office, about two years ago. It was amusing to hear and see the confidence and enthusi- asm with which people of limited means laid down their money at Ogden upon the bore possibility of having found tin at last. A sutler took ont faOP,—all that he had after paying his fare,—and en- trusted it to a stranger, to pay the wages of a couple of laborers to open and expose the tin ledge, until he should come back with more funds, and personally superintend it. If there be tin in Utah, it will nave the ad- vantage of the cheapest European labor in the W est, and many of the English Mormons are Cornish men, perfectly acquainted with' tin-mining. _ CUm, THE PRESIDENTS MESSAGE. cost of land.house, and engine, and the work • lag of one steam fire engine.

The number of its victim* is being added to daily, and as cold weather comes on 'there is ev ery reason to believe that it will be still worse. The moat stringent sanitary regulations are . in force, yet the contagion is in the air, and all that mam can do (except to vaccinate) in the way of sanitary precaution seems a waste of time, for the disease baa a foothold, and the har- vest of death will be reaped. Let it be borne in mind that the scourge is not confined to the poorer classes. Some4 ef the richest familiea in Philadelphia are afflicted, and have supplied victims to the loathsome disease since it appeared in June last. The small-pox hospital ia situated outside of the city. It is overcrowded, and tents have been erected on the premises for the reception of patients. It is estimated on competent autority that there are no less than five thousand people now suffering from small-pox within the city, There are t of course many whose names are not report- ed, although the law in this respect is very stringent. The number of deaths during the past wee* has been 1SS. New cases repotted in the last twenty-four hour*, 93. The Board of Health met in session on the 13th of October last, and published the fol- lowing circular: _ _ HEALTH O I W C * . P«ILU>BLPHIA, Oct. 12,19T1. At a meeting of the Hoard of Heaita, held this day, the following tttreetfeas of ttte course to tie adopted by tae public to diminish tae spread of small-pox, and also of proper treatment of per- sons wae may be attacked with the dis- ease, were unanimously adopted, and ordered to \£e*matioa and roTacclnation and thorough Isolation of those sick with small-pox or vario- loid, are the principal and most important means to be adopted to diminish the spread of this loathsome disease. The deaths here are ainoi those unprotected by vaecinnation. It Is mated that to Ctt eat Britain so,0UO lives are savea annually by vaccination; yet *,O00 persons dte annually there from its neglect. If the vaccination sears are insufficient in quality or quantity, levacclnatton ts necessary. This mast be determined by a physician. Every small-pox patient should be strictly se- emded at home or to hospital during the whole progress of the disease, as well as daringeohv*- tesceuee from it, and until all power of infecting others is past. Morses should always be selected from these ethemselves protected from smallpox, by having had the disease, er by having thoroughly v*oeina«ett. BPXSS FOB WCkSCTG SMALL POX FATIgSTS. Have the patient placed in one of the upper rooms of the house, the farthest removed from the rest of the family, where is to be had the best vcntilatioa and isolation. Keep the room con- stantly well aired. Remove all carpets and wool ten goods, and all unnecessary furniture. Change the clothing of the patient as often as needful, but do not carry it while dry through the house, but first place It at the bed- side in a bucket of scalding water before re- moval from the room. Boiling Is the surest way of disinfectmg all asntaminated clothing. If in- fected clothing oannot be washed at once, let it be set to souk in water, to which may be added a saturated solution of permanganate of potassa or of chloride of lime about a tahlesi>oonful to the gallon. Small-pox is said to be most contagious during convalescence, therefore strictly observe that the patient does aot mingle with the family until all the scab** are entirely off, and only after a thor- ough purification by washing and entire change at clothing. After Sie patient is well, or leaves the room, Ut it be purified by the use of disinfectants, by white-washing, and by scrubbing the paint and floor with soap, soda and water, and let such rooms or apart- ments be well aired before being again occupied, In regard to food and medicine, always rely on the advice of a physician, who should be sent f »r as early as possible. • The eity provides for gratuitous vaccina- tion, having appointed eleven physicians, whose duty it is to vaccinate free all appli- cants who cannot afford to pay. the man and the woman.

The President has completed, in its promi- nent points, his annual Message to Congress, though the document has not yet been read before the Cabinet The leading subjects which will be discussed will be iutornal tax- ation, the tariff, finances, the Washington Treaty, the Indians, and the Ku-Kltix dis- uivbauces in the South, On the Question of intern*! taxation it is understood that the message will recom- mend the abolition of ail internal taxes; ex- cept on spirits, malt liquors, tobacco in every form, and stamp* Considering the satisfactory condition ef the finances it has been been found by careful estimates that the current expenses of the govern- ment, including the interest on the nation- si debt, can be easily met from the reve- nues front these sources »nd still leave a sur- plus for an annual small redaction of the principal. The tariff will also be fully treated upon, but the message wiB embrace no specific recommendations as to the articles upon which there shall be a reduction or which shall be placed on the free list The matter of details will be left to Congress, though it will be suggested that those thing* which can be included in a revision of the tariff, with the least inmry to the interests of th* country, should be first considered. The finances will be touched upon gener- ally, leaving the report of the Secretary of the Treasury to make such recommendations and suggestions as may be necessary to carry out the financial policy of the administra- tion. The work of the year in the improvement of the (condition of the peaceable Indiana and the domestication of those still at large on the plains will be reviewed. No material change in the Indian policy will be recom- mended. 0 The Message will also allude but very brief- ly to the operations of the Ku-Klux societies in the Southern States. It will be left to the Attorney General to report at length the condition of the question and what measures have been taken to suppress this insurrec- tionary order. The labors of the High Joint Commission and the successful conclusion of the Wash- ington Treaty during the past year will be a subject of congratulation to Congress, with the expresion of the belief that the completion of the duties of the commissions established by the treaty will harmonize all matters of controversy which have been so long pending between the governments at Washington aad Lon- don. This will alao lead to some observa- tions noon the generally satisfactory rela- tion* existing between the United States and the rest of the world. What farther measures will be taken re- •pectiag the recent campaign in the Corea, have not yet been definitely determined. A strong policy, however, ia indicated, par- ticularly fa view of the uneasiness felt in the empire of China toward foreigners. The punishment of the Coreans for the mnr- der of wrecked American seamen is con- sidered complete.

From the New York If erald. NOT. XT. Before9o'clock » curious crowd had begun to gather in Second avenue.iu the vicinity of No. 851, the Ruaso-Greek church. By half- past 9 a. m. the crowd numbered a few hun- dreds, and at twenty minutes past 10 the streets and sidewalks from Fiftieth to Fifty- first street were thick with people of all ages and both sexes. It required the united and steady efforts of Captain Gunner and several of his men to keep a passage clear in front of the house for the entrance of the imperial E arly. The windows and stoops of the ouses on the east side of the avenue were swarming with human beings, aad at twenty minutes past 10 a. m., as the imperial carriages drove up, a cry was raised " Hera he is! Here he is!" and cheers and applause followed. The service had been designed for 10 o'clock, but the Grand Duke was a little late in arriving at the church. He was ac- companied by Admiral Possiet, Captain Schavroff, Consul General Bodiseo, and Vice Consul Schultse, and a few officers of lesser note from the fleet. There was in all about sixteen persons, including Mrs. Bjerring, the wife of the officiating clergyman, and another lady. During the performance of the entire service the distinguished party stood up, the Grand Duke having a position to the right of the outer altar rail, within whioh stood the choir, who had volunteered from the Svet- laua for this occasion. The reader must understand that this Greek church consists of the parlors of * private house, and only a part of the front parlor is allotted to the congregation. A space of about five feet by eighteen is separated from the congregation, also from the altar proper or tike holy place. Within this space tike choir stood on the right, while the officiating priest, duringa part of the service, occupied a desk «n the left A richly carved screen, with beautiful- ly gilded swinging doors, divides this space X i n from the holy place whereon rests the lice, the crucifix, and the implements of service. During the consecration of the Eu- charistic implements these doors are closed, bnt at other times they are open, so that the f riest is heard and seen by the congregation. "he chalice was covered with a heavy red satin cloth, richly embroidered and fringed with solid gold, and the crucifix with which the priestly blessing was given is of solid gold, about eight inches in length. It was banded to the Prince, who kissed it, Father Bjerring meantime having advanced beyond the altar rail to perform the service,% The portions of Scripture read were taken from Luke xii., 16 to SI inclusive, which de- scribes the rich man pulling down his barns to build greater ones, and God blasting his foolish schemes by demanding his life sud- denly. The narrative of the cleansing of the ten lepers, found in Luke xvii., W to 19 inclusive, was also read. During the pro- gress of the service, which lasted an hour and a quarter, prayers were offered up five times for the imperial family of Russia, sev- erally, by name, and twice for the President of the United States, the Governors, and all in authority among us. Prayers were also offered for the Holy Synod of Warsaw, for the Patriarch of the Russo-Oreek Church, for the cateetunens and priests and people of the orthodox Greek Church, and for other special and general objects and blessings and mercies. The litany and Te Drum was sung alternately in English by the priest and in the Sclavic tongue by the choir. The English tongue ia^ used here .be- cause it is the on* best understood by promiscuous congregations, and the Sclavic i* the laagnage by which Greek.: Catholicism was introduced into Russia, and it is re- tained as having a sort ef peculiar sacred- ness en that account Toward the close of the service the priest handed the Grand Duke a small piece of the consecrated sacramental bread, which' he took away with him, A short season oi handshaking and wreetiags took place at the dose, and Father Bijerring was invited to dine with the Prince in the evening. H , •• rf> •f atarenet aw 8 ate her ? " From the New York Times. The famous case of Tichborne m. Lush- in gton has been resumed in London, and it is thought will soon "be enlivened by im- portant discoveries. Our readers will re- member that the case began May 10, and continued almost from day to day, until July 7. Judge, jury and counsel were by that time so exhausted that an adjournment became indispensable. Beth aides were willing, since each hoped in the interval to secure conclusive testimony. Public excite- ment ran high at the time of the trial, has abated but little since, and is now at a greater pitch than ever. The extraordinary confidence of partisans respecting the chief matter in dispute, the point-blank oaths of trustworthy witnesses in confirmation of the alleged Sir Roger Tiehborue's identity, and the directly contary oaths et witnesses against him—the undeniably suspicions cir- cumstance that the plaint ift failed to remem- ber in the slightest degree studies with which the veritableTRoger was known to have been familiar, and. on the other hand, his minute acquaintance with the incidents, places and in dividnals equally familiar to the true Roger at the same period, all have Invested this came eelehre with remarkable interest. The belief of many, and the theory of his antagonists, has been firm that the plaintiff is in fact Arthur Orton, a man once a buther at iWapping. In truth, nearly all opinions concur that if he is not Tichborne he must be Orton. Tho " Baronet or butcher" alterna- tive is sustained by plausible circumstances. On the night of his arrival in London the claimant was known to have gone to Wapp- ing, and to have corresponded afterward with Orton's sisters. The awkward conjec- ture is supported by other circumstantial evidence. There have been several times when it has seemed that the ^identification •f the plaintift* with Orton must be conclu- sively established. But now it is thought his counsel will play a crush- ing trump. This is nothing less than the production of the real Orton himself, who, ft is predicted, wiB be brought forward at the proper moment to overthrow opposition. Yet the adverse lawyers are not unprepared even for this. Suppose an alleged Orton ap- pears, why should he be a real Orten I There may be difficulty in establishing his identity. If the alleged Tichorne is an impostor, it is not impossible to conceive of his claims being backed up by another. impostor. It is known thai agents have been working with great energy in Australia in the interest of both sides in this action, and we shall doubtless] speedily get decisive accounts of the result Pending this it may be useful to give a brief outline of the situation. The case for the claimant is substantially as fellows: He is asserted to be the eldest son of Sir J. F. D. Tichborne.tenth Baronet ofjTichborue. The latter was youngest of three brothers, and the youngest died before him. He subse- quently married in 1837. Roger was born January 5,1829. A second son, Alfred, was born, who married in 1861, and died in 18<56. Alfred left a posthumous son, and it is in his interest that the present suit is defended. Roger, the true elder son, had rather eccentric taste* and habits. He fell in love with his cousin, and was refused by her. Then he got drunk and swore to leave home forever. He did go off to South Amer- ica, and wandered about there in a reckless fashion, corresponding at spasmodic intervals with friends in England. At last, he mad* his way to Rio Janeiro, where, being quite tipsy at the time, he went on board an out- ward-bound ship called the Bella, The Bella went down.aa was supposed, with every soul on board. But the claimant says that, who- ever else went down, he did not. Heplleges that he escaped in * boat, and was picked up by an American vessel which took him to Melbourne. His opponents say this is a sheer fabrication. If it is, what the claim- ant knows of the drowned man he personates, has been gained and worked up with aston- ishing skill. It is true that he could not on the former cross-examination nam* one book that he had read with his tutor Cha- tillon, and he knows no more of the Greek and Latin of which the true Roger had at least a smattering than he does of quadratic equations. But the true Roger when he went away left a sealed packet with Mr. Gosford the family steward, which was not to be opened unleas certain events occurred; and the claimant named the contents of that packet—never having had any chance whatever of access to to it—in detail. Besides this, the affidavits of his moth- er, Lady Tichborne, of Mr. Hopkins, the family solicitor, and of two other per- sons, aU attesting under oath the identity of the claimant with the long-absent Roger, coma in for a due share of weight.

This was not a new subject tor consideration. In the early history of the world it is the woman who tills the ground, while the man engages in war and hunting. The heaviest toil is always the wuntanTs until the first great stop in civiliaa- ttoa ia taken aad man shares her burden. Poetry recognises the fact, andMUtoa makes Satan* first step in evil th* 'Separa- tion of the man and woman at their work: it is not enough to say that the field is open for women if they will enter. Their energies ar* paralysed by prejudice, custom, and self -indulgence so that they need to have the way made very easy for them. \V bat women ask is a fair held, aad. no fa vor; that those who hold the gates should open to them. A few great souls can win their own way, but the multitude need much as- sistanee. Even now women do share in out- door work, but only such a* is degrading, and. will, therefore, be avoided by women of culture and refinement. In lyagjand, in 1818, there were*S,3SJi women engaged in out- door labor, bat it was rough, illy paid, and open only a portion of the year. This kind of toil should be elevated so that all may enter it. All elsMcs need 1 assi-tharmmp of the horse new light and lif* ta this «terection, jgr Winaaa threw his wl A mn>» FOB LITK.

Bulletin, Mov. 10. there occurred on the Oregon A iaUailroatl, between this city and am, one of the most thrilling railroad in- cidents wp ever heard of. When the down train eame near one of the stations on the road it was running at full speed, in order to make uptime, as it was a few minutes be- hind. The road at this point runs through a cut something more than a mile in length, and iu entering it the road makes a curve so that the engineer cannot see entirely through it. So, as he thundered along yesterday, h* little thought wh»t stirring times wet* upon him. He had hardly gotten into the cut be- fore, he saw a woman riding leisurely through it, and with perfect nonchalence using the centre of the track. She was not more than half way through the wot, and barely a quarter of a mile a*head of hiss. He immediately whistled "down breaks, and then sounded the warning. .. , -4. The woman, hearing the,peculiar death- Whistle of the locomotive, looked over her shoulder and saw the train rushing at bar. She did not shriek, nor faint, nor give up all hope, but. like a true Webfoot, her courage rose equal to the emergency, and without a moment's hesitation, she commenced swing- ing, her riding whip from one shoulder of her steed to the other, thereby urging him to exert his utmost speed. The whip, and, per- haps, the shrieking of the steam-whistle, caused th* animal ridden by the lady to put in its heat lie**, and he made about as rapid time as any animal ever seen in Oregon; hut each instant the iron horse gained upon the one •©mpoaed of blood and muscle. m ^ % Th* shrieking ef the locomotive's whistle caused the passengers to look out of the win- dows, and upon their discovering what was the matter th* wildest excitement ensued. Several jumped forward and siezed the bell- rope, and commenced pulling on it as if they eenld stop the train by that means. The brake men were exerting all their strength on the brakes, aad the engineer has. cut oil' ihe connection, aad. wa* doidv all that he knew to stop the train, while the woman was do- ing her level best to make that bit of horse- flesh rise to the speed of a '* Helmbokl;" but, all in vain; tho locomotive kept kept gaining on the horse and its rider, and there was A R a m a - l i e Hiatarr. From tae Canton (lit) gegister. Mr. Henry Christ, a cigar-maker in the tablishment *of E. H. Curtis, in this city, ceiveda letter from Germany, on Friday evening last, communicating the inteBigence that he was entitled to 110,000 in Prussian money, and the title of Baron Herman Von Christ. The story connected with Mr. Christ's life is romantic; and we have suc- ceeded in eBciting the following, which wiU be of interest to the many friends of this young man, and the readers or the Eeainfer: . . Mr. Henry Christ was born in the city of Cbarlesdale, one nule from Heching, Hohen- KoBen, in the year 1847. His father was Superintendent of all the woollen and cotton manufactories of the Prince of HohenzoUen. His mother was a Countess, a sister of Baron Von Warner, present Private Secretary to the Prince of HohenzoUen. His mother died when he was 10 or 11 year* old, and his father married a Baroness, the daughter of Baron Von Fisher. Henry, with two sisters, lived at home until 1864, when ne left on ac- count of the abuse and mistreatment of his stepmother. At that time his father lay sick with dis- ease of the brain. He bade fareweUto his father and sisters, and. in spite of the en- treaties of his friends anl relatives, he turned his footsteps toward America. He landed in New York, in 18W, with $900 in gold. This he converted into greenbacks— as gold at that time commanded a high pre- mium—and started for the city of Pitts- burgh, in hopes of finding friends and em- ployment. He arrived there, but after a vain search, a stranger in a strange country, and among strange people, he did not succeed in finding them. He applied far a situation as clerk or salesman in a mercantile house, and obtained it—as he had served a short apprenticeship in his nativ* countryin the commercial business. He was also m p*s- gession of a splendid education, having had the benefit of the best college in Germany. He was a schoolmate of the son of the Pnuce of HohenzoUen. and the first families of the kingdom. He did not remain in this situation long, but concluded to learn a good trade, and be an independent man. He applied as an apprentice to a tobacconist, but found that the sum paid apprentices would not board and clothe him, and he concluded to buy a small stock of tobacdb, and make ci- gars (he had gained some knowledge of the manufacture of cigars by closely observing the workmen), and peddle them on the streets. In this enterprise, he succeeded be- yond his most sanguine expectations, and soon found that the cigars he manufactured -were very salable, and broaght him a very reasonable profit. Meeting a cigar-maker one day, he was persuaded to accompany the latter to Cincinnati, where s he was assured he could get a situation as a " jonr." He consented, and went t6 Cincinnati, where he worked some time at his trade. Hearing a great deal about Chicago, the Garden City 01 the world, he abandoned his situation, and Bought work in that otty. Here he re- mained two years, and made hosts of friends by his gentlemanly deportment, honesty,and industry. He left Chicago in 1869, and went to work in Peoria, for Charles Niehaus. In Peoria, he met his wife, the eldest daughter of Mr. Peter Wasenste, a cabinetmaker. He was married to her, in September, 1870, and a few weeks afterwards moved to this city, and was employed by Mr. E. H. Curtis. # Mr. C.'s father died about five years since, with the disease which attacked him while Henry was at home. Sine* the death of Baron Von Christ the estate has been iu litigation. The stepmother has endeavored to collect a large amount of money, which she held was due her for the education of Henry, declaring that he wa* educated with the funds which were rightfully hers. The question has at last been nettled, and the widow aUowed a child's portion of $10,000. Henry has two sisters living, the oldest of, whom is soon to be wedded to- a young nobleman. His stepmother lost a brother, Baron Yon Fisher, in the late Frenco-Pra*- sianwar. Hewaakilledat titouegeof Stoas- burg, and wa* * Colonel of a Prussian regi- ment. An uncle of Henry's, a brother of his mother^, Baron Von Warner, was killed at the siege of Metr. He was also Colonel of a Prrfssian regiment. , The letter received by Mr. Chnst, last weakJ was from his J ^ ^ J f t Yon Mock. Besides the flp.OOO—whien is subject to his order—he wBl also receive a large amount from the sals *f the personal property of his father. j" ' • He has not yet determined whether he wtB return to Prussia or whether he will close out all interest there and become in /act, as he Is in scarf, an American citizen. •amw« Q U M A I D WT • . • • " Tie Coiral National Bail (National Ho 718.
