Van ' Bokeleu, of New York, ex-TJuite.l States consul general at Port an ; Prince, arrived in this city to-day, a? 1 a passenger on the American steamer , Jlaythn lhpublt from Port an Prince. He tells a remarkable story i ot outrageous treatment at the hands of the Haytien government. Wlule acting as cousnl general Mr. Van Uokclen married a Haytien woman, and at the end of his term of office took up the business of dealing in the paper money of the native gov ernment At this he made consider able money, and theu desired to in vest part of his gains in real estate, but this v:ts forbidden by the law of Ilnyti, which denies that right to any but a native of Hayti. He evaded the law, however, and purchased properly in Port au Prince, which transaction reaching the ear of Pres ident Salomon, chief magistrate of tho republic, he caused Van Bokelen's arrest, ami had him locked up in a wretched dungeon in the government prison at Port au Prince. Here his only companions were negroes of the most debased type, many ot them be ing murderers and desperadoes, and very often the prison, which is a small wretched structure, built on low, swampy ground, was crowded with nearly 300 prisoners, Mr. Van Boke leu beiuff the only white man among them. His dungeon was a narrow stone cell, which measures eight feet by four, and the walls werd" constant iy dripping with water. There the un fortunate consul was forced to live from March, 1S31, until tho 27lh of June, 18S5, tho place being infested with rats and loathsome vermin. His health which was robust when he was first imprisoned, is now entirely broken down, and ho has become a victim to both consumption and chronic catarrh, while his face is pale and haggard, and gives every evidence of long suffering. Mr. Van Bokelen says that no at tention was paid by President Solom on to letters from Secretary Frehng huysen, and he was not released un til Secretary Bayard wrote to tho Haytien president demanding his in stant release, slatiug at tho samo time that if he was uot released a United Stales man-of-war would bo dis patched to Port au Prince with in structions to adopt severe measures if necessary. Tho truth of tho slory is vouched for by tho captain and purser of the steamer. Depraved Pandering. The highest ambition that actuates some pcoplo to read a newspaper is to learn of thunder storms, cyclones, tornadoes, murders, suicides, and some man running away with another man's Avife, or that Bill Jones has slandered Kate Pumpkins, or that Ihero was a big hanging at Ft. Smith the other day. Unless the newspaper contains a long list of tho above items in every issue, many of its readers pronouncb it a worthless sheet, and say that it is not even fit for decent gun wadding. Now we desire to say, must and will say, and by theso presents do positively and absolutely say, that the intelligent conclusion of the whole matter is that the respectable newspaper should lower above the often recapit ulation of that stylo ot news which only horrifies the refined feelings that every man and womau should educate aud tram themselves to pos sess. Tho grand mission of the news paper should bo to elevate mankind aud not furnish that class of news which serves as the most wholesome food for the low and vulgar passions of the human family. Toledo I mini grunt. Information from San Marco, Tex as!, reports that a mob of seventy-five persons at Blanco, on Wednesday night, went to the jail and demauded of Sheriff Jackson tho keys. Jackson said he did not have them, and he al so declared he could not procuro them. After a severe struggle Jack sou was overpowered, the keys were found on his person, and tho mob en tered the jail and look out Lockie, the man who committed a wholesale murder iu Jackson comity a few days ago. They hanged him, after obtain ing from him a slatemeut iu regard to his crimes. Lockie made a full confession, and said he had intended to kill all the members of three or four families besides those ho mur dered, and was prevented from doing so only by his cartridges giving out. The new electric motor Ben Frank lin is expected to bo publicly tested on the New York elevated road to morrow. Its weight is one-half that of the elevated road locomotives, and it is claimed it will save 50 per cent, of the coast ot fuel. A pre liminary experiment on tho 18th gave the utmost satisfaction to tho elec tricians. On a very light current twenty five miles au hour was at tained. There was uo jarring, puff ing or screaming. At tho trial to morrow it will draw two loaded cars. Mr. Daft, the inventor, says men who control the railways of tho country will be there. It will bo tho heaviest crowd of men, financially, ever in one car. Ho expects to have $250,000,000 represented. Col. Fred. Grant says that h is father during his illnes3 received 5,000 letters from southern confeder ates alone, Tho mere business of reading these letters must have been immense. They were nil kept, and will one day perhaps be published. MYSTERIOUS DEATH. Some timo in the fall of 18S4, Browning, who formerly lived in As toria, moved on to the ranch of Peter Norris, near tho mouth of Cedar river, Pacific conuty, with his family, con sisting of himself , wife and five chil dren, the oldest being 11 years, and began working for Norris. During tho spring aud summer at various times Browning nnd Norris quarreled and threatened each other, the cause of the quarrels originating in atten tions paid to Browning's wife by Norris. Some time about July 10th tidings in some manner found their way to North Cove that Browning could not bo found. Inquiry of his wife resulted iu a story, to tho effect that on July -1th her hus band had started out berry ing, leaving word for her to call him to dinner; that a short time aft erwards she heard two shots from the direction iu which her husband went, and had not since seen him. Norris, being interrogated, said he also had heard the shots, bat put them at a different hour and direction from what tho woman said. Cedar river is isolated and has but one other resi dent The citizens ot North Cove formed a party and went to Cedar river to search for tho missing man, but their efforts in tho deep forest wero ineffective and unavailing. At the timo of Browning's disappearance the manner of Mrs. Browning and of Norris roused tho suspicion that they knew its cause, and this feeling has never entirely disap peared. A late forest fire in that sec tion has cleared away a largo body of forest and at the same time exposed tho half decomposed remains of tho missing Browning, some four mile3 away from the places where tho shots were said to have been heard. The body was found upou tho homestead of tho deceased, where Mrs. Brown has lately removed. Sheriff Turner is investigating tho matter, and while convinced that there is foul play somewhere, says that tho place is such an out ot tho way corner it seems almost impossible to get posi tive data to work on. Two things aro certain: that Browning is dead, and that his death occurred unac countably uuless someone killed him. Who was it? Young aud old, 'tho strong and weak, aro promptly cured by Bed Star Cough Cure. Washikotox, Aug. 29. An interest ing point in connection with the nat uralization law3 has just been settled by Iho secretary of the interior in dis posing of the case of Ross vs. Poole. Boss made a prc-eniption filing when an alien, supposing that the declara tion of the intention of his father, who had been naturalized, wan sufficient to qualify him as a pre-emptor upon at taining his majority. Before ho dis covered his error and tiled again for the tract Poole made a homestead en try upon it, Tho secretary held that removal of disqualification came too lato to invalidate tho intervening rights of Poole. What You IVuiit to Know. Everybody wants an honest answer to this "simple questien: What is the best medicine to regulate the bowels, euro costiveness and biliousness, help digestion aud give strength to the whole system? People ask us this every day. We answer, Parker's Ton ic, it is pleasant to the taste. All children like it. Mothers all praise it. It will save a thousand times its cost in every family. Editor Western Argus: A female office-seeker in Washing ton a short while ago maneuvered her way into the White house with six small children in tow, and made a most pathetic plea for an appoint ment which would enable her to sup port her widowed brood. It was a neat bit of strategy, but it wofnlly miscarried when she was recoguized bv ono of tho attendants. She was never married at all, and the squad of juveniles had been borrowed for tho occasion.
