AX OLD CANAL CLAIM. Reminder of ? Company In Which Gen. Washington Wat Interested. In the case of J. S. Brawn et al. against the Chesapeake and Ohio Canal Company Wm. II, Marbury has, by Linden Kent, filed t\ petition to become party complainant and hiking that bis claim for with interest from July 1 6, 1840, be declared a prior lien and bo paid before the mortgages are satisfied. This claim 13 probably the oldest growing tut of the assets of the Potomac Company organized in 1784. The plaintiff files with thu petition a sketch of bis claim. It shows that the Bank of Alexan dria was one of the stockholders of the Poto mac Company, of which Gen. Washington was a projector; that the canal company took pos session of the works of the Potomac Company r.n ! assumed its indebtedness, and that the act incorporating the canal compuuy provided that "as long as^here should bo any creditor of the Potomac Company who shall have not vested his demand against tho same in Cbt sa peuke and Ohio canal stock the canal company shall be obliged to pay to such creditors buch dividend or portions of net amount of the revenues of the Potomac Company on an aver age of the last live years of its existence as the demands of the creditors at that time may bear to tho whole debt ot ?175.M0. but wliicu are suppo-ieJ to have been about 3 per cent on ? 175.sou if the interest on the debts of the com pany be not included." In April. 1*:U. tho 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, 1*36. tho pay ment to be from the tolls which should not be iadupc usable for the completion of tbe canal below dam No. 5. It is further stated that the Bank of Alexandria had failed and the cli:in had been transferred to the Batik of Potomac, and that l'hiueas Janney, president, accepted the t< rm- and the canal company executed its bond to that bt.uk for the amount, with inter est trom January I. 183U. Interest was paid to July 1. 1*40. and the bond wan transferred to the Farmers' Bank of Virginia, into which tho Bank of Potomac was merged, and when the assets of the Farmers* Bank wcut info the bands of a receiver tho bond was sold, aud iu 1)80 it was assigned to the petitioner.

Bart telot's Diaries and Letters. The "diaries and letter* of Ma}. Barttelot," the murdered commander of Stanley's rear guard, were published in London yesterday. They contain serious charges against the African explorer, the book having been edited by the dead man's brother. Walter Barttelott who. in the preface, says: "It is not likely that tlr.s book would have been written, or one word of its contents ever published, had jus tice been crcn partially done or any kindness shown by the leader of tho expedition to the officer who was left at Y.imliurga with his im pediment, stores nnd baggage." Charges of malignity, ingratitude, misrepre sentation and desertion are then brought against Stanley. Beside other lens important accusations, the issue presented is whether the J misfortune* o: the rear column were duo to the indecision of Major Barttelot and that of his compan.ons. or whether Stanley himself was primarily responsible. In his "book Mr. Stan ley Suds fault brcr.uso thej did not follow the advance column as dir eteil. Mr. iiarttelot claims that his brother's diaries nnd letters, as well ns the testimony of the surviving officers, "how thatSfanli y made it utterly impossible to carry out his orders, ns lie tooU all tlio strong men and those of good character with him, leaving 10 the rear guard tho Bick, feeble and incorrigible. M*j. jiarttfclot'a diaries show thnt Stanley threatened to blast his reputation with Lord Wolsel.iv and to ruin his career in the army bv writing to Maj. Tottenham. In referring to this incident Mr. Barttelot gives his brother's words: "Afterward, turning to mo, Mr. Stau ley said that it was in his power to rtiiu me in the service. I said to him that this was an empty threat, as it would take a great deal more thun lis could say to do that. He pun- I i?bed me afterward by making mo march to I.eopoldville with seventy men who were noted for laziness and incapacitated for cr.rrving load*, warning me that if I lost a single load to look out." This expose of Stanley's character, a* shown up by the dmries and letters, make spicy read ing. . Tho story includes an account of a quarrel between Stanley and Jephson, on winch occasion Stanley offered to fight him. The publication has eauscd a great sensation in Dub lin. and tho papers nre unanimous in express ing the opinion that it was indiscreet, to say the least, to print what liarttclot. a man avowedly of * hasty temper, never intended should see i the light, but that, however this may be, the charges call for a full and cnndid answer. Mr. Stanloy refuses to be interviewed on the sub ject. Monument to John Stark. A bronze statue of Maj. Gen. John Stark, tho hero of the battlo of Bennington, was un veiled at Concord, N.H., yesterday. After an opening address by ex-Gov. Moody Currier the statue was unveiled by Miss Florence Shelley.

Tho li:llcs returned to Waycross at 12:.0 last night. Mr. L. R \ arn states that ho had positively no knowledge of the trouble and had no hand hatever in the affair, and that the dispatches wired from McDonald's Mill were untruthful so far as they related to himself. *s>? 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 w ill he served this week. In au interview Mr. Chappell said the Berne convention of 1HH7 prohibited the production of "Faust" except ai authorized. The case is complicated, us the copvright law is ambiguous, but wo mu?l tight it iu order to got the highest legal decision on tho matter, signor Hago, who has jtat begun a season of Italian opera at the Covcnt (iarden Theater, thinks that both Mr.'.ChappeU uud Mr. Harris arc bluffing, but will stand to their guns. He insists that the Berne convention docs not cover the case of -Faust." but,on the contrary, it protects him. The issue is one which is im portant alike to impressatios and music pub lishers. ? ??* South Carolina Politics. R. K. C harles of Darlington county recently addressed an open letter through the A'nttaiid Cotiritr to Judge Haskell, tho nnti-Tillman candidate for governor, asking him to answer publicly this iuqniry: "Do you rest your pros pect of election solely on tho 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 tho ma chinery of the election laws?" The Awm and Courier today publishes Mr. Haskell's answer, iu which he cava: "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. We ask them to vote for us because wo 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 obedieuco to the pledges put forth in [ the platform en 1 utterances of the democratic party established in 1873. On the other hand, we advise nil citizens, without regard to party and race, to vote against the Tillman party, which has repudiated, overthrown nud trampled under foot thoso solemn pledges which should bind every democrat in this state and which nre essential alike to the welfare and prosperity of either and both races." Tho campaign is getting hotter every dav. Capt. lidman said yesterday that he expected to be governor if there was a fair eleclion. 1 he Haskell party claim that they nre getting strength.

Senator Leland Stanford of California was ?itting in the lobby of the Windsor Hotel on* d ay I ait week talking to a representative of the J'inwB on tbe subject of horsei He waa en thusiastic, as he always ia when talking horse, and bo was tailing of his successes, both with trotters and runners. The wonderful fill y Sunol had been s disappointment to him as a four-year-old, but he had hopes that ahe would coroo 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 a producer of horsas as well ma | men and vegetables. lie was also interested in the wolfara of that I fast sprinter Racine, the first horse to bresk the long-standing mil* record of the famous ! Ten Broeck, and in the career of the beautiful nod high-class Gorgo. Both of those horses , are the property of Senator Stanford, although they havo boon trained in tho stablos and run in tho colors of other men. ??Diil you ever hear how I became interested I in horses?" suddenly asked the Senator. "No? Well, I'll tell you. It was several years ngo and I had boen working very hard?ao hard, in fact, that my ph>sician said that unless I took a rest I would break down altogether. My businosB interests were so great and I so pressing at that tim* that I could | not think of following this advice. I told my physician that a rest from business | was impossible, and thut ho must presciibe something else. He thought awhile, and then said that the next best tiling was to occupy my mind in somo other way, and to obtain the rc- j lief and rest that is to be found iu diversion. He suggested driving. I had at that time one pretty good horse, a roadster, and 1 followed his advice. I quickly became so intorosted in the ani mal I possessed that I bought another and a I better horse. I drove these and watched them carefully. I soon fouud myself trying to de velop thorn into something better than they were, and I succeeded so well that I bought j others and developod them. Almost beforo I realized it I had got together a fair stable and waj ifceply interested in tho development of the horse. It was but a quick and natural step to breeding, and I made it with enthusiasm. "In tho eld days when wo washed gold in tho mines there was a certain sort of dust that could not bo separated from the sand except with tho uso of a magnet. Wo used to put tho magnet in the dirt aud the gold would stick to it. In my leisure moments from mining I was wont to nmuso myself by experimenting with my magnet. It was the common horseshoe kind, and I would dip it into a heap of iron tacits and keep adding to its burden until the limit of its strength was reached 'lhcn I would strip away tho tacks aud loud up tho magnet | again. I repeated this again unci again until 1 found that tho power of tho magnet was seri- I ouslv impaired. I succeeded in reducing that pow er to one-third of what it was originally, and 1 think fliut 1 could have destroyed it al together by simply overtaxing it, although I never experimented that far. When I bee-aino int' rt".t? (1 iu tho development of tho horse I recalled thoso idle moments with the magnet, aud 1 reasoned that tho power of a horse could be destroyed just as readily by over taxing as that of the maguot At that time it was the custom in train ing hortcs to tax their endurance to the utmost. They were given miles of jogging and were worked until they were exhausted. This seemed to me to be all wrong. It was just what I had douo with my old magnet, and I was convinced that it left the horse with impaired strength aud endurance each time it was done. Ihe more I thought about tho matter themoro I became convinced that the proper way to de velop tho horse was to keep every effort de- ] inanded of him well within his powers. Ho should not bo worked until he was exhausted, but ho should bo traiued to make one supreme effort when his powers wero at their best. *'I appliod this theory, and I have not only had remarkable success myself, but I liavo lived to see tlie whole system of training trot ting horses revolutionized. There was a time when a trotter was supposed to be immature until ho was nino or ton years old. Now we have throe and foar-ycar-olds trotting close down to re<?ord time, and oven yearlings are trained. Personally, I am not a little proud of holding tho two. thrco and four-year-old rec ords. and I attributo thatsuccoss entirely to tii* system ot training suggested to me by the min ing magnet and inaugurttod by m?"a* a relief | from business cares. "From developing tho horso by training it was but another step to developing him by feeding, aud my interest in tho horso and my love for him became so great that I was impelled to add breudinft to training. Now, I 1 had seen that the horse pousossed a power analogous to that of the magnet. 1 reasoned that tins was an unintelligent though active force. Any kind of a horse will trot until ho is urged to a point beyond his trotting powers and then he will broak into a gallop. This is truo of anything from a Percbcron to a thor oughbred. I concluded that if I could Ucveiop in tho horse tho intelligence necessary to mako him trot instead of run I had tho problem solved. 'Ihis had to bo 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 gamencss of tho ono and tho coolness and en durance of the other, and then I bred a^ain with a view to developing tho trot as a natural gait. 1 am satisfied with tho progress I have made so far. and I am convinced that event ually horses will be bred so that they will pro- I fer trot tin to running, and that their greatest speed will bo brought out in trotting, in other words, tho horso will bo so bred that tho trot | will be his natural gait and consequently tho casiost for him." -? Cannot Upset This Boat. The members of th* government board of in spection aud survey, comprising Bear Admiral Lewis, A. Kimberly, Capt. Heury Erben, Chief Engineer W. G. Beuhler, Lieut. L. C. Logan and Naval Constructor John F. Hanscom, wont to Wilmington yesterday to inspect and report on tho new steam life boat constructed by Capt. Frances L. Norton. Tho peculiar advan tage claimed by Capt. Norton for his boat is that it cannot be capsizcd. The vessel has a I double hull. The water in admitted to the in tervening space by boles in tho external hulL This virtually floats on tho inside shell and floats the outer hull. Tho wings, or bilges, at the sides are filled with air, which is com pressed by the water and acta as a cushion, proventing capsizing or rolling. Capt Norton will start on November 1 on a trip across tlie Atlantic. The dimensions of the boat | are: Length over all, 58 feet; beam, feet; depth, 6% feet; displace ment, 35 tons. 'i'lio compound surface con densing engines whieh the Pusey A Jones Com pany have placed in the yacht have cylinders of and 10 inches diameter aud 8 inches stroko. Tho propeller is three-bladed aud S feet in diamoter. The boilor is 5}fx5 feet and is tested to Btand a pressure of ltM) pound* to the square inch. Peculiar Case of Poisoning* Four persona employed at the Quaker City dye works, Howard and Oxford streets, Phila delphia, wero poisoned yesterday in a peculiar manner. Two of them will dio. For a week past a chemist has beon engaged in experi menting with a dye. Directly beneath the laboratory is the dressing roo|fi in which the street clothes of tbe employes aro kept It is supposed that the ingredients used by the chemist iu his experiments formed acompound which produced prussic acid, aud that some of the deadly fluid leaked through the floor of tho laboratory to the dressing room and satu rated somo of tbe clothing there. Bernard Hughe** entered tho dressing room about noon and camo ost complaiuing of feeling ill. His faco whs of indigo hue and ho was conveyed at once to Ht Mary's Hospital. Ity the time he reached tho institution hisheurt had almost ceased to beat James Tighe. Walter Spell man and Wm. Eberhnrt, who went into the dressing room after Hughes, were seized with the same symptoms. 'Ihe two were taken to i the same hospital and Ebcrhurt was carried home. A physician visited the dye works to discover, if possible, tbe cause of the men's illness. Ho at once detected the odor of I prussic acid, and although tho chemist denied using it in his experiments, he learned enough to convinc* him that other chemicals used had formed the compound. Tho men bad inhaled the fumes of this deadly poison. The physi cians attending Hughes ana Eberhart say they will probably die. Tigfco aud Spellman in baled lesa of the poison and their cases are not so dangerous, although they are still very sick. The Gale on the Coast. The gale along the New Jersey coast did much damage at Sandy Hook. The waves rolled far ap tbe beach and submerged the track* of the New Jersey Southern railroad.

This is no idle boast on the part of the paper. It is a well established fact, demonstrated to the fnll satisfaction of the sagacious and enter prising business men of Washington, who seek and know where to find THE LARGEST RETURNS EROM THE MONEY I'AlD OUT FOH ADVERTISING. This is proven by th* growth of The Stab's advertising patronage. Nothing can more purely illustrate tfc* esteem in which ?ny article is held by ths public than a constantly increasing demand for it?day by day, week by week, month by month, and year by year,?in the face of ad verse claims and pretentious competition.
