From the Hamilton 'Pistue.)
George Holgate came to this oity about
eight years .ago. and was engaged at
Wanzer's Machine Factory as an adjuster.
He was also employed at Beckett's Factory.
During his residence here he often went
into long yarns about . his exploitS in the
American waroo. He was out „went with

money, according to wbat he said. He
came to Hamilton from the West. While
here he showed some knowledge of chemiso
try and other scientific subjects. He, said
that he had made experiments with gun-
cotton and dynamite while out west,
but he made no -mention of an
infernal machine t� any of 'his friends.
He was well liked by all with .'vvhdra lie

lived down near -Beckett's foundry with his
wife,a Wisconsin lady. Hehad a great'
deal of energy about him and Was always
-talking about something new in machinert
He went to the Centennial, from this city,
as agent for a patent fruit canning process.
The process consisted in mixing a concoc-
tion of sulphur and eggs with. the.
fruit. By Selling out his interest ,in
-this he made a large sum of money. He
then went into the paint business there.
The paint process was a patent one and Hol-
gate made a good living out of it. He has
lately turned up in Philadelphia • as -r- an
infernal machine maker and recently, told
a reporter of the: Philadelphia Recbrd that
not only was he the maker of the hellish
contrivance designed by O'Donovan Roses
and compatriots to blow England up sky-
high, but that at present he is in negotia-
tion with the representatiVea of Arabi Bey
to furnish torpedoes that will drive tunnels'
through the British irenclads, and almost
start the Suez Canal from its foundations.
The frequent discovery for to years
past in trans-Atlantio steamers and on
English quays of clockwork machines
charged with terrible- explosives has, kept
John Bull's teeth a -chatter. It will be
remembered that in Julie; 1881, ten clock-
work machines; were sent from Boston in a
cargo of cemeotbarrels, and were captured

:THE SANDWICH MYSTERY.
Sudden Disappearance of a Colored Minis-
ter and HIS VVife.
MURDER AND ARSON SUSPECTED.
A despatch from Detroit says: The
whole colored population of Essex County,
juet,aernafi the, river, .au kb:1W of the
white People of that quiet locality, are
-excited over •the reeent mysterious disap-
pearance and the burning down of the
house of two inoffensive colored people
named Archibald and Annie Mann, who
lived in Sandwich Eaet, alaout ten miles
southeastsif Windsor. Mann was a minis-
ter as well as a carpenter. • He was a quiet
old mao of 60 years, hisJwife Annie being
considerably his junior: After a while Mr.
and Mrs. Mann asserted to the people of
their own race that their lives had been
threatened openly and by letter by Some of
the neighbors On the 14th of June Mr.
Mann about noon threw down, the tools
he was working with, and said to his fellow
workers that he had a presentiment that
something awful was going to happen to
'maw" his Wife.,--and—thatt he-coul;dstiots,
work. After a while he was persuaded to
keep oia with his work, that it wan silly to
let his imagination run away ' with him.
After working a short time he declared
that it was `no use for him • to go on. 11,13 Ile
felt it in him.that something was wrong
with his wife or vras going to happen to
himeelf and her. He said he would go
home and if he got over his feeling he
woultreturn to work. He left his tools
andeverything where he vvas working and
went towards home. That was the
-
last time he was seen. His house_
stood- apparently deserted for a few
days, and When the neighborhood Woke
up on Monday Morning, June 19th, the last
of the logs of the old shanty were smoulder -
'Mg. On that mortainglsones were found in
the ashes, but as quick as found they. were
stolen away, and now no traces of them are
left. The white people say they may have
been beef bones, and the colored people
declare they were human bones. The
eolored people seem to tear their -white
neighbors, from whom they say the threat-
ening letters come. If there were anything
in this belief, it seems strange that ouch
inoffensive persons as Mann and his wife
should have, been selectedas sacrifices to
sectionalhatred. The sudden disaPpear-
ance of the old couple is undoubted. How-
ever, there is ikx.
some mystery about the
affair which shOuld be, probedto the bottOin.

A. Curious Story About AbrahamLlneokj..•
In an obituary of Mrs. Lincoln we find
the following curious story.. Mrs. Lincoln
had, before her marriage, prophesied' that
Lincoln would be President of the United
States. Just after hi election a singular
circumstance occurred which once more
brought out the gif t of prophecy which ,Mrs.
Lincoln possessed. Mr. Lincoln described
it in the following language " It was after
My election, when the news had been
• corning in. thick and fast all day and there
had -been a great hurrah, boys!' 'so that I
was well tired out -and went home to rest,
throwing myself upon it lounge inouly,
:chamber. Opposite to where I lay was a
bureau with a swinging glass upon it, and
looking in that glass I saw myself refledted
nearly at full length, but my face, 'noticed,
had tw,) separate and distinct images, the
tip of the OSe of . one being about three
inches from the tip of the other. I was a
little bothered, perlaaps startled. I got up
abdtokd1nbe- glassoslant -the -illusion"
„vanished., On lying down again I saw it a
second time -plainer if possible than before;
and then I noticed that one of the faces
wae Paler than the other. I got up and the,
thing melted away, and I,went off, and in
the excitement of the hour forgot all about
it -nearly, but not quite -for the thing
would once in a while come up and give me
a little pang as though something uncorci-
fortable had happened. When I came home
I told my wile about it, and a few days
after I tried the experiment again, when,
sure enough, the thing tame back again;
but I never,succeeded in bringing' the ghost
baok after that, though I once tried very
industriously to show it to my wife, who
Was worried about it somewhat; She
thought it was ' it sign ' that I was to be
elected to it second term 'of office, and that
theopaleneas of one of the facesi was an
omen that I ahould not s'ee' life through
the second term." Mr. Lincoln regarded
the- vision as an optical delusion caused by
,oervousness. Hie wife's prophetic inter-
pretation of the circumstance, viewed ie
the light of subsequent events, seems cer-
tainly most extraordinary.
