NEW GEOtOGICAIi REVEI.ATIOXS From the Pittsburg Commercial. "We speak of this continent as the New "World, hut it had inhabitants that were dead and buried untold ages before the people who conceived the ancient ruins of the Old "World had even an existence. The forthcoming annual report of the Governmental Ge ological Survey of the Territories will contain descriptions and illustrations of a very remarkable and extensive collection of fossil remains of beasts, discovered by Prof. Cope, in the barren andjtreeless tracts known as the "Bad Lands" of Col n-ado, of totally differ ent species, and even orders, from those of the latter age and region. Prof. Cope has proved the existence of more than a iiunarea species, someoi iiicm represented by thousands of individu als. Of these at least seventy species arc new to science; and they range from the size of the mole to that of the elephant. Of cloven-f ted quadrupeds a great many specimens, some of which were nearly intermediate between the deer and the hog, have been found; while no less than seven distinct spe cies of the rhinoceri were discovered. But the most remarkable monsters whose existence has been disclosed by the survey are a scries of horned Bpecies related to the rhinoceros, but possessing some features in which they resemble the elephant. They stood high oi tho legs, and had shorty feet, bat possessed osseous horns inpair3 on different parts of the head. One of the largest species had a huge horn over each eye, while another had one on each Bide of the nose more than a foot in lnnwth. A third had ritdimental horns on the nose. Still another was as large in tin' olonhant. its cheek bones being enormously expanded, and its bonis flat: while a fifth species had triangular Jim t.nrn.'d outward. Juauy cannvor oub species were also unearthed, one of which resembled a dog, but was as large a l.lnpl- l:ir. and much more car nivorous in its propensities.

Tnere was a great excitement in our little household when Robert came home one evening and announced that Cousin Max was coming to visit us We girls had never seen liim, but Rob ert and he had spent a year together on the continent, when our father was alive and money was plentiful with us Since tnen our uerman cousin s name had been almost a household word with us. . . . - Max was quite alone in the world, our aunt and herliusband both dying when he was quite young. He was almost Robert's age was tall and fair,' and that was all we knew. Robert never very good at description had indeed attempted to civc us some idea of his appearance, but was silenced by (jlaire and .birdie, who both exclaimed that they would rather "keep their fancy- picture than the caricature they knew he was drawing. We were very happy together and contented generally. Wo had been able to keep the house, and Robert's income from his profession he was a lawyer, like our lather sup ported us very comfortably. Sometimes 1 caught myself wishing that Claire (Claire was our beauty) could have the "purple and fine linen" which seemed her right, and that Bird ie's exquisite voice might be properly trained: but if I hinted this, -Claire would kiss me gaily, asking me if she wasn't pretty enough to suit me as she was, and Birdie would dash off into a description of the life she would lead as a prima donna, and how every night she would see old Rob and Gracic look ing severe propriety froin one" of the boxes. And so,my little trouble al ways ended with a laugh. I was the old maid in the family, -ftobert was the only one that know why, and kept my secret faithfully. I had got over being unhappy about it, and Robert and I made our plans very contentedly how we could live on in the old home when the others had flit ted, and what a genuine "old maid's castle" it would be. I was to Robert what the others dearly as he loved them never quite could be, and we did not think our separation possible. We had expected Uousin Max, lor weeks, and yet he came quite unexpect edly at last. "We were sitting in the porch Claire, Birdie and I when we saw Robert coming, and with him a stranger, who Birdie declared she was sure was Consin Max. He was talking and laughing withRobert,bnt I noticed that, as they came Tcloser, he started violently and passed his hands over his eyes; but recovering himself immediate ly he greeted us with a genuine warmth of affection, which took all our hearts by storm. A gay evening we passed! "Coming events" no not "cast their shadows be fore," whatever people may say. I haa never known how really beautitul Birdie was, till that night, but as she stood by the piano, in her soft white dress, with the passion-flowers in her hair, I saw Cousin Max gazing at her like one entranced. Claire's beauty did not seem to impress him at all, per haps because she was so like himself; for indeed they micht have been brother and sister. Both had the same regu lar features, blue eyes and blonde hair. Beside them Birdie looked like some tropical flower. Max was never tired of watching her quick, graceful mo tions, and Robert and I had a laugh together over our little pet's conquest. Cousin Max was soon thoroughly at home with us all, though Birdie still kept her place as chief favorite. They were much together, for Claire was soon to leave the old home, and our new brother, Alfred, spent most of his time with us. I was very closely occu pied with my housekeeping, and with preparations lor the wedding, wnicu was to be in September. Robert was away all day, so that Birdie tmd Max were left to amuse each other. He was quite an artist, and greatly to Birdie's delight had oilercd to paint her picture. The rest of us were excluded from the studio; for, as it was his first attempt at portrait painting, we were not to be al lowed to judge of his success or failure until the picture was hmshed. Blind blind: Did no one ol us ever see that the child smile had passed away from our darling's face? Did no one ever think that the soft shining in her dark eyes might be the light of a woman s love." The picture was finished onmy birth day, and was the gift of Max to me. "We were all taken in to see it, and never since have I beheld so beautiful a picture. Birdie's very self stood be fore us, dressed as Max had nrst seen her. But the face the exquisite dewy softness of her eyes the bps, just parted in a happy smile! The others were congratulatmg Max. i coma only clasp Birdie m my arms, and hide my foolish tears on her shoulder. That evening we were all sitting m the moonlight. Max was smoking by the window, and Birdie in her usual place on a footstool at his side. He was unusually silent, and unless by and oc casional word to Uirdie took no part m the conversation. The room was flood ed with the clear brilliance of the moon light, and every one protested against lamps. Robert and Alfred were argu ing as to the reality of supernatural manifestations. The possibility of a second self appearing -to warn one of approaching death was mentioned, and Claire turned suddenly to Max: "Max, you arc a German, and should know about such things you tell us." His face was clearby defined by the light streaming through the open win dow, and I saw his lips compress sud denly; but when he spoke it was in his usual even tone. "I certainly believe such a thing pos sible, Claire. Indeed, I may say I know it to be so." "O, a story! Cousing Max, a story! Tell us how you know." said Claire, eagerly. He smiled slightly. "It is strange, but I have been thinking of this very subject. If I tell you, however, you must expect me to be egotistical, for it is a leaf out of my own life I must show you." Something in his tone impressed us all, and we sat very silent, waiting for him to commence. Birdie's eyes were lilted wistfully to his face, but his were fixed on the stars bevond. "About four years ago, I was visiting a very intimate friend in the sonth of Germany. I had never before seen his family, though we had known each oth or for some time. His lather was a strange, fanciful man, knowing every 1W ghost legend and old superstition by heart. My friend laughed at all such, bnt his sistciv Gretta, wis a firm be- slieveiuih.K allii'hcr father's theories. I remained thcreforsome months, and be fore I left, Gretta had promised to be my wife." isT-oice f eUfa5difwas Jomcrmo mentsbefore he continued. " !rj -TourIyears agotto-night, I was sit ting by. an open window, as I am now, when suddenly I was surrounded by an overpowering scent of violets. This was Gretta's favorite flower, and I im mediately thought of her. Presently I heard a-step and a rustle of drapery. Right nnder my window I saw I could swear to it Gretta's face and figure. ,1 sprung to my feet,, ran down the staus ana out into tne street, out sue was gone, nor was there any other per son in sight. I returned to my room baffled'ahd wondering. ; "A few days after,- I heard from Gretta; she begged me to come to her at once. I found her suffering from great nervous excitement, f which she bravelyattempted to control 'fir the presence of her father and brother; but the evening of my arrival, as we were nil sitting together,, she left, the room, makinir a sign to me to follow her. I foimdjher on . the, terrace. Sho -was BtandmgiwitHLer liands clasped loosely before her, her eyes fixed on something in the distance, and such a weird, un earthly look upon her face, that I has tened to arouse ler. "Laying my hand upon lier arm, I spoke her name. She started, then clung to me, trembling violently.. "When I attempted to soothe her, she burst into tears. When she could speak, she told me that one even ing she was standing where we then stood, when she saw a figure coming up the steps from the lower terrace. Thinking it some visitor, she went slow ly .fo'f ward.' As they came, face to face; tha figure raised its head, and sho saw hersell : "I stood quite still," Gretta said to me, "and the tlang came nearer, look ing irnic with awful eyes. I tried to speak to move but I was held if by chains. Then something whether it was my double or not, I cannot tell, but 1 heard the words stud 'A year. The tower clock struck seven, and then I fainted." That was the day on which I, too, had seen the apparition. Gretta had spoken of this to no one, but - the inr pression that her coming death had been foretold was firmly seated in her mind. In vain I argued against this idea; she would, only shake her head and mile. "Ihe day on which the apparition nrst manifested itseli was Uretta s birthday, and that day in the coming year was nxed upon lor our marriage. Thinking that change of scene would restore my Gretta's failing health, I urged that an earlier day might be nxed, but her father was obstinate. JThe stars had told him. that day would ue a iateiui one in ner me, ana noming would induce him to change it. When I told Gretta of my failure, she said gently;, 'Touanusfc-notrbe Yexed, about" it, Max; if I cannot be your wife on earth, I will in heaven.' " Our cousin paused as he uttered these words, and sat leaning liis head back against the curtain. He had used no word of endearment in speaking of nis promisea wire, out tne tone ot sup pressed passion told us how dearly he had loved her. Claire broke the silence: "Was she very beautiful, cousin Max?" lou have her bvmg rjnage there be fore you," he said, looking down at Birdie's averted face. I saw my pet change color, and pres ently she arose and niaved quietly away to one of the windows opening on the garden. Max did not seem tit notice the movement, and soon went on with his story: "ihe time for our marriage was very near when I again saw Gretta. Busi ness had kept me from her much longer than I had intended. T had almost for gotten the occurrence of the preceding ear, and l hoped Irretta had also, i cannot speak of those few weeks of happiness, all too short as they were. The day came. We were to have been married early in the day, but the pastor suddenly fell down in strong convul sions, and one at some distance was sent for. When Gretta was told of the de lay, she said quietly, 'I knew it would be evening.' The wedding was to be as quiet as possible, on account of Gretta s health, which, shut our eyes as avc would, we could not avoid seeing was failing rapidly . "The pastor arrived and the hour ap proached. The air was very heavy, and, opening the windows, I went out upon the terrace. Walking slowly forward I in white corss the lower terrace and come slowly up the steps, near which I was standing. The form and carriage assured me it was Gretta, and, calling her name, I went to meet her, but the figure passed quickly on, and vanished in the shrubberry. Tinning, I saw Gretta at my side. ' X ou have seen it, Max I she said, in answer to my look of amazed inquiry. The time has come, Max. They do not know that I am here,' she said, with a glance at the house, 'but I want ed to see you again. Don't forget me, Max. I will wait for you.' "We entered the house by different ways, and m a lew minutes her brother came to call me. Tho service was com menced. My eyes were fixed on Gretta, ho was growing paler and paler at every moment, suddenly tne tower clock struck seven; she raised her eyes to mine. I caught her in my arms, but she never breathed again. And that is the reason," said Cousin Max, quietly, why I shall never marry. The silence was oppressive, irres- ently Claire and Alfred left the room, and soon we heard the piano. Max looked around with a smile. "Claire is calling us where is Birdie?" I pointed to the window. He crossed over to her, and, laying his hand on her hair, said coaxmgly, "Come, song-bird, they want us." But birdie drew back from his caressing hand with a quiet dignity .ii ii i i i mat sat strangely onner, anu, excusing herself, ran up to her own room. Max reioined us with a sorely puz zled face, but, though he watched the door all the evening, Birdie did not re appear. I always went to her room at night, and while Claire, Alfred and Robert were still chatting in the hall, I went up-stairs. Hearing no sound from Birdie's room, I opened the door softly and went in She was kneeling by the open window, gazing out upon the winding river just risible through the trees, and the gleaming of the white stones in the little church-yard on its banks. I called her, but she made no answer. Sitting down beside her, I lifted her on my lap. Her hands were cold, and she was shaking from head to foot. "My poor little pet, what is it?" I asked anxiously. Never shall I forget the piteous eyes she turned on me. "Gracic; Gracie, he only liked me be cause I resembled her!" O, my darling! a mother's eyes might have seen tho truth and saved you, but I left yon drift into this bitter love without one word of warning. The next day Birdie never left my side, refusing, greatly to the astonish ment of Max, all his invitations to walk or read with him. To do him justice, I do not think he guessed the mischief he had done. Birdie had seemed to us such a child, we never thought of the strength and depth of her character. Her sunny, happy nature had been enough for us. and we looked no furth er. Robert and Max went away for a few days together, and when they returned Max seemed feverish and excitable. By night he was much worse, and the doc tor verv soonnronounced that ha had thc:feycr. " When 'Birdie heard that . he vaijlin danger;; she' jnsistcdnpoh seeing hmi.'and after That lie would not let her out of his sight? He would call her "Gretta," hiss"darling,"his "wife. and hef her never to leave him again: and Birdie would sit with her hand in his, soothinhim.humormg hisfancieS; jil 7v .-'ng "paler nnd'paW at every word he uttered. In the early morning, about 2 or 3 o'clock, he would become more qiiiet, and then, leaving the nurse with him. she would come to me. It was onlv at such times she rested at 'all; and often she "would hot-Jsleep,bttt would he watching the color creeping into the eastern skv. with a ouiet look of expectation on her face, which filled me with an indefinable sense of dread In vain we begged her to give up her care of, Max;, m that she was deternun- 'ca nothing could shake her resolution "While he wants me I shall stay," she would say decidedly. The time for Claire's Imarriagc ap proached. We had decided to put it off another month; but, greatly to our astonishment, Birdie argued against this. When the ddctor came she .saw him alone, and he, too, advised us to have the wedding. Max might be ill a long tune, he said, and it was better to have as small a family in the house as possible, for the terrible pestilence was launching its death-shafts all around us. So a week later Claire was mar' ried. Birdie was there, pale and still, but with a smile on her face, and with loving words and kisses for our poor beauty, whose wedding had proved so sad after all. Alfred and Claire were to leave immediately; so our good-byes were hurried. That night Birdie told me" the truth. bho was taking the lever, and the doc tor had said there was no chance of her living through it. He had told her, week ago, that, by nursing Max, she miqht save his life, but she would cer- fainly lose her own; and our Birdie had answered, "1 wtll save him if I can. "I am glad so glad Claire is married; 1 was afraid she would have to wait, Birdie said to me, 0! so quietly. I begged the doctor to forbid her watching Max, but he shook his head: "It would do no good; she wouldn't live any longer for it." So, for a little while longer, I sat waiting every night for my darling, outside the door of her murderer, as 1 called him in my wretched heart. One morning she was later than usual. The doctor had been with Max all night; he left about three, tel- ing me, as he passed me on the stair, that Max was better; was sleepmgquiet ly, and must not be disturbed. Pour struck, and yet Birdie did not come. I was afraid to open the door, so sat leaning my head on my hand, counting tho minutes as they passed. The birds were beginning to sing in the chestnut tree outside. I sprung to my feet as the door creaked sh'ghtly. The nurse was holding it open.andlfancied 1 saw tears on her wrinkled cheeks. Birdie was standing in the doorway. "It's come now, Gracie," she said soft ly, as sue clasped her aims about my neck. The cool October winds were blowin: and yet Max had not left his room. He was able to sit up all the morning, and I used to bring my work and sit beside him. One clear, bright day he was sit ting by the open window and watching the lazily moving clouds. We did not speak much to each other. He was too weak, and I what coidd I say? That morning Max seemed restless; at every sound he would glance toward the door, and then turn away with a look of pain ed surprise. At last he said abruptly: "Grace, why does Birdie never come to see iner Mas she quite forgotten me?" I was prepared for this. They had told me I must tell him. I had thought and planned what I should say, and now I could think of Jnothing. I took the little packet which my darling had given me, and placed it in his hand. "She nursed you through the fever, and she told me to give you this." And so I left him. Had I told him too abrupt ly? Had I told him at all? Dare I go back? I tried the door when two hours had passed, but it was locked. When Rob ert came in, I begged him to go and speak to Max, but before he could obey me Max entered the room where we were. He looked ten years older, and his face was inexpressibly sad. Robert held out his hand to him with a few kindly words of congratulation upon his recovery. "I must be well," Max said gravely, I leave to-morrow, and I want to thank you now for all your kindness, when you had such reasons to hate me. 5ut believe me, 1 never dreamed thati " His voice failed him, as Birdie's canary, hanging in the window, just then trilled forth to joy ous song. Covering his face with his hands, he hurried out of the room. I am glad that, while he stayed we were able to be kind to him. Before he left, he came to me: "Gracic, forgive me, if you can. Be lieve me, your angel is avenged." 1 kissed his forehead, and bade him "God-speed." And so our cousin Max dropped out of our lives forever, leav ing no momento of his visit, save the picture that hangs before me as I write Uirdie in her youth and beauty, with the passion-flowers in her hair only that, and a grave m Elmwood ceme tery. A CRUEL TRAGEDY. Murder of n Jinn byIIis Brotlicr-in- law. The Knoxville Press and Herald of the 14th says: A barbarous murder was com mitted near London, "Whitley county, Ken tucky, last i nday night, under the follow ing circumstances, as narrated to us by a citizen of the vicinity, yesterday: James 1'erkins and Madison btinson, were brother-iu-laws, Perkins having mar ried Stinson's sister. The twain were re turning to their homes, together, and were On the river bank, on the night on which the murder was committed, when a disa greement sprung up regarding the best road to be taken. Perkins used very op probrious languiige towards Stinson, and followed it up by plungiuEr a knife in his stomach, and slashing with his murderous instrument until the entrals of the murder ed man protruded. Stiiison ran down the bank to the river and was followed by Per kins, who threw several heavy stones at liim, one of them striking him on the back of the head and felling liim to the ground. Tho moaning of the injured man attracted a neighbor to the scene, who lifted him up and carried him to an adjoining house, where 'he died at 3 o'clock next morning. While on his dying bed, Perkins came into the room and offered his hand to Stinson, at the same time asking him who had hurt him. Stinson replied feebly: -Ton have barbarously murdered me." Perkins then went to his own house, aroused his wife and children, bid the latter obey their mother, and told them he had to leave them, never to return. Stinson leaves a wife and several children. Perkins lias led a wild life, and his father-in-law has fre quently been compelled to pay his debts and bear other expenses incurred by his tuuluti ful son-in-law's conduct. Madison Stinson's remonstrance to the old gentleman forbear ing so heavy an expense for so worthless a scapegrace, it is supposed, caused Perkins to promote the difficulty which ended in murder. The Brownsville Slates, in a favorable notice of a sermon preached at that place not long since, reproduces a passage of that discourse as follows: "That elegant old Pagan, Horace, the idol of the Roman fashionable world and the favprite of Augustus Caaar, mourned over ' the fleet ness of time Eheul fuyasesjugases labun ler anniP We solemnly asseverate that we never saw it on this way before, and we aspire "never to see it again.

THE SCOURGE IX MEMPHIS. Tho Xoblc I'nrt the Israelites Toolt A Compliment Worthily Bestowed From the Memphis Ledger, Nov. 13. No class of our population suffered more man me Israelites in proportion to num bers, and none worked better at homo and abroad. When the fever was annnmmil officially on the 11th of September, many of mem ere .cast Duying goods, or had not returned from summer trips of pleasure to Europe or distant parts of the country. The Iicopie oi tms peculiar nation and faith usually take care of their own noor. and in this great emergency they not only stood by each other, but made common cause with the whole community. The name of A. E. Frankland, their distinguished representa tive, who, perharo, did more service among the sick of all classes in person than any ouier man, is known all over the land, ui i aiuiougu nc was oy no means un known before, having been a lead ing Mason and member of other benevolent associations and a prominent citizen nere lor many years, lie was an untiring member of the Howard Associa tion, the Citizens' Relief Committee and one oi me iieurew societies. A more faitliful and philanthropic public servant was never enlisted in the cause of suffering humanity. The many good deeds of Lou Leubrie; of 13. E. Barinds, Rabbi M. Sain- lield, who was day and night among the sick and dying, and performed the funeral services lor all the dead of his congregation: David Tighman, Fraukland's "shadow;" Isaac Heiligers, who was to the orthodox congregation what Frankland was to the whole community, and who lost his life in the cause; J. 13. Washer, who also died at the post of duty, and a host of others will not soon be forgotten by the numerous recipients of their generous kindness. But it was of the absentees that we besan to speak. Several of the leadiiur business men were in Xew York where they had a voice and niiltience among the wealthy. At the first appeal for aid Messrs. Henry nice, jx. aeesei, .j. o. jncmcen, is. ixwen- stine organized into a committee to collect lands, and were remarkably successful at a time of great stringency in money matters, and even when the panic was at its height. The amount they actually raised we do not now remember, but it was over ten thous and dollars. The city of Xew York after ward voted S-jO,000 for the relief of our des titute, and this was no doubt a result in a part of liaving such able and responsible friends on the ground" to properly present our case. Cincinnati, next to New York. lias been most liberal in her contributions, and our Hebrew friends took the lead in the good work of enlisting sympathy and raising funds. A copy of the Ixraelite, published in that city, and edited by Dr. Isaac M. Wise, an eminent Rabbi, is before us, and gives some very interesting reports of relief meetings held in that and other cities further North. Mr. n. M. Lowen- stine, of this city, arrived at Cincinnati on the 17th ol October, direct from Memphis, and went to work in earnest. With Dr. Wise, he visited the newspaper offices, and both made addresses before a congregation of the temple, and before the City Council. When all was done that could be, and Cincinnati liad appropriated 15.000 to Memphis, Dr. Wise, accompanied by Mr. Lowenstine, visited the cities of In dianapolis, Cleveland and Detroit, and in eacli place liberal appropriations were se cured for our sufferers. Mayor Johnson's dispatch, that no more funds would be needed, brought them back. Dr. Wise, af ter stating these incidents, and paying a compliment to the .energy, sympathy and ability of Mr. Locweiistine," makes some very instructive and beautiful remarks, which we cannot help adding to this al ready long article: 'The telegraph and railroad officers, like the press, treated us with a distinguishim: and. praiseworthy liberality and generosity, ivmg us an we needed, lree ot charge, and oing it in a maimer which deserves special credit The experience thus made is very valuable to us. We have learned once more that the political press is after all the most liberal and most generous among our public institutions. It is not merely the beacon light of liberty; it is also the great and powerful lever in every good and humane enterprise. Those gentlemen wielding the pen and molding the history of the day, are in full sympathy with the joys and woes of the people. They stand high above the common politicians, because tliey are men of letters, whose first object is to do justice to the masses. We have learned to count ttlem among the better, If not among the best, class ot our people, al though we are aware of the exceptions. In the third place, and this is most important and most satisfactory to us, we liave learned that a feeling of genuine charity widely spread among the people, a feeling of charity which is energetic and easilyaccessible. Notwithstanding our im perfections and shortcomings, we arc hu manized, our impulses are youthful and generous, our hearts are with the suffering, and our hands open to render aid and sup port, llus is an extremely pleasing lesson to us. Not a word was uttered by anybody against the proposed aid. Numerous are the friends of the suffering. Railroad men, elegraph managers, aldermen, soldiers, pol- ticiaus and non-politicians, perfect stran gers to us heretofore, treated us with touch ing kindness and genuine courtesy. We have learned a good lesson, one which teaches us to respect aud love our fellow citizens. In conclusion, it must be stated, f there exists any prejudice down South to Northern men, it is unjust. We find none n the North. I'eace and good will pre vail, and ought to govern all." Such work and practical sympathy does honor to our Hebrew fellow-citizens, and the sentiments of Dr. Wise reflect equal credit to his head and heart. Long may he live to preach and practice such noble cliar- ty lor the benefit of mankind. ROyVM), DOXT CAUL. IN THE O, Konald, you know that Ilovo you, on Know tnatniy promise is true.
