The case of ex-Senator Sharon and his alleged wife will be" brought up in San Francisco October 16. The opinion prevails in San Francisco that the case is one peculiar to that city, where, a prominent man is not considered as broken in until he has been blackmailed or has been sued for breach of promise. The ex-Senator is now at the White Sulphur Springs. The llaytian man-of-war, Dcabaline, now at Philadelphia, uarrowly escaped destruction by an infernal machine manufactured by Geo.

Ubtld, that any one wlu should build inj Ixndon a house costing JC500.0Q0 would before long, if of-deeent repute and anxious to "get into good society," succeed in doing so. Gov.

If it had been reduced ' to! the1 amount required lor the1 sinkings fund, about $45,000,000, the outlook would now be more satisfactory."

The Land and Lumber Company, of which Mr. Dill.is President, have the contract for furnish fog the Southern Telegraph Company with poles necessary to extend the lin.c ofthe latter from Norfolk, Va., to Co lumbia, S.

The success with which the new company, has met is surprising, and at a meeting of the, directors, herd in New York Monday, it was decided to put up more wires between Rich mond and Charlotte and on South so ai to be better prepared to handle . their business, which has outgrown the present capacity of the company. The extra wires Will be , strung immediately. The Southern is also to build a- line from Lynchburg to Washington City.
