Charles Wellsworth made hla escape from the jail this morning in a daring manner. The cells are about twenty feet square, and are heated by wood tires burned in a fireplace. Wellsworth had selected a stout oak stick about three feet long and three inches in diameter from the firewood and when the janitor, Thomas White, an old colored man, went up with a supply of wood for the day, Wellsworth informed Whith that he would knock in his head unless he was allowed to go down stairs and out When the corridor was opened by the jailor. White at once started for the door, closely followed by Wellsworth, who rushed out of the front door, rnd was soon out of sight He was barefooted and withont a coat Driven Crazy by a Sentence. Columbus, Ind., Dec 30. This community is shocked by the sudden insanity and death'of Bertha Fark, a school teacher 28 years old. Her mother, Mrs. Park, has divulged the secret confided to her by hor daughter on the day when the symptoms of the latter's disturbed mental condition were first discovered. On that morning, when the young teacher entered the school room, she discovered written upon the blackboard, in a bold hand, a sentence charging Marion Park, her father, with the murder of his parents and relatives, a crime committed twenty years ago. She hur-ridl- y erased the cruel charge, but it bore so heavily on her mind that it soon caused her aberration and death. The Park massacre took place a score of years ago, and was laid to three colored men who were arrested and lodged in jail at Charleston, the county seat, whence they were taken by a mob sndjhanijed to a tree. The fathor of the young school teacher is almost wild with grief at the loss of his daughter and tl connection of his name with the murdt r of his parents. The wildest excitement prevails, and should the person who wrote on the blackboard be found he is likely to share the fate of the three negroes. OGDEX, UTAH, DECEMBER 31, with Mr. Bush Dell before the bomrd. After a full heahng they coedamiMd the project as impracticable, ridiculed the clutnaunes and unabipiineea of the proponed craft and declined to sign the coo tract.

"If vou build her you will never be accused of idolatry for she doea not bear the like neas of anything in the heavens, or on the earth, or under the earth." Mr. Lincoln patiently and silently listened and simply remarked, when naked what he thought "Well as the girl out west aaid when she put her foot in the stocking. I think there is something in it,'" and went out Mr. Bushnell decided that nothing could be effected unless Ericson himself could be persuaded to go to Washing ton. While passing through Baltimore on his way to New York, he decided how to approach Ericson. He Bought that gentleman at 9 o'clock the next morning. He wisely refrained from mentioning his failure when eagerly Questioned. He aimply told Ericson the things that were favorable, like the remark about his "genius," and then said the board deeded further information aa to details which he (Bushnell) could not give. "What do they want to know!" aaid the inventor. They think the vessel larks stability." "She is as stable as a raft I'll go to Washington He went He met the Board in company with Secretary Wells. He answered their objections, and so explained the Monitor and what she would do, that the board signed a contract with Mr. Bushnell by which he agreed to construct her in one hundred days for -- t275,000. Her appearance at Hampton Roads, the amazement which she canned and the work she did are matters of history. 8he quenched the rising naval hopes of the Confederacy; sent dismay into the hearts of the European sympathizers with the south; revolutionized naval warfare and coast defence, and as much as any one instrumentality employed in the war saved the union from destruction. i E 0.
