Tie West.At VirginiaiNev.) Oct. 5th. a miner

named Pat Price. while working in theChollar-Potosi mine, was caved on seve-ral times and finally crushed to death.The Trepasas says: After the space ofFone hour had passed a second fall ofearth buried him still deeper, when hecalled in heart-rending voice to his com-panions to be quick, as he was smother-ing to death ; and then all was silent ex-cept the falling earth and timbers,which suddenly gave way forty teetabove in one grand crash, and sunk,with the other ground, to the level ofthe mine, where all that is mortal ofPatrick Price now lies buried beneaththousands of tons of ore and timber,perhaps never to be exhumed. For thepresent, it is impossible for men to ap-proach the place of the cave, and it isexpected that another huge mass of theold works will fall before morning.Price had worked in the mine for 18months, and was a faithful, sober, hon-eat, industrious man, beloved by all hisfellow miners and the foreman of themine. He was a native of Ireland, 28years of age, and unmarried.

The Salt Lake Vedette of the 14th hasthe following : We have been credita-bly informed that a party of prospectorsleft town a day or two since for someparticular section of the Sweetwatercountry, to the public unknown, insearch of some reputedly fabulous richgold placer diggings. As the story goessome emigrants. as early as the year '49,found nuggets of gold there as big ashen's eggs, lying around loose ; but, be-ing pressed by Indians, had to leave.Some years after, one man, or more,went out to hunt for the El Dorado, butwere never heard of after-taken in anddone for," probably by the noble red

men. Again, in '57, another emigrantstumbles over and discovers the same 4prospects, but, like the first discoverer,was looking out for poor "Lo" morethan gold, and got out of the country assoon as possible. The present party areconfident they can put their foot right ion the spot, and in that belief havestarted on the hiunt. t

About 11 o'clock last evening, saysthe Virginia Enterprise of the 12th inst.a man named Thomas Coons fell fromthe high sidewalk on the east side of Dstreet, near the corner of Taylor, a dis-tance of twenty feet or more, to theground beneath. He was very drunkat the time. lie was seen to fall, andsome policemen and others brought himto the station-house. lie was in an in-sensible condition from a severe con-tusion in the forehead. Dr. C. C. Greenwas sent for, and on examination found'the skull just over the right eye crush-ed in upon the brain, the wound beingnearly two inches in length. It wasprobably produced by a sharp stone up-on which he fell. Several pieces of bonewere removed, but the patient remainedinsensible and the chances of his beingalive this morning were very small.

AN INCOGNITO ARRIVAL AT A HOTEL.

On the 19th of September last a lady,calling herself Mrs. Clark, accompaniedby a colored female servant, arrived atthe Union Square Hotel in this city.Her baggage consisted of two trunks, onthe largest of which the name " Mrs.Lincoln, Springfi eld, Ill.," was visible,though an eftbrt had evidently beenmade to erase it, the letters "Incoln" be-ing quite plain, as was also the address.A white visiting card, tacked on, borethe name, " Mrs. ('lark," written in pen-cil. The other trunk had the name

Those gentlemen at the hotel who hadknown Mrs. Lincoln when she was thefirst lady in Washington thought thatthis Mrs. ('lark was not she, althoughothers expressed the opinion that thetwo were one and the same person. Shewent out 1but very little during her stayof exactly a week, and left on the 26thof September, promising to give direc.tions by letter subsequently as to thedisposal of her trunks. Although somein the hotel were certain of the identityof Mrs. ('lark with Mrs. Lincoln, otherswere not, but from divers little inci-dents which occurred, they surmisedthat Mrs. Clark was directly connectedwith the Lincoln family. It very soonbecame known that the lady was noneother than Mrs. Lincoln, who, after leav-ing the Union Hotel, absented herselffrom the city, but for a very short time,and on her return took rooms at the Sr.Denis Hotel, under the same name aswhen at the Union.

Mrs. Lincoln's visit, so privately, itwas ascertained, was made for the pur.Lt pose of disposingof some of her personal

property, as her present income is inad-equate to her wants, she being possessedof in all but $1,701 a year, $300 of which, comes from the rent of her old house in

o Springfield, the remainder being the in-3 terest of the 25 i,000 which Congress ap-c propriated for her benefit, in place of,

8 $100.000 which her friends made an ef-e fort to obtain, but which the friends ofg the dead President succeeded in defeat-

ing. The lady, immediately after livingin such splendid style, felt embarrassedin endeavoring to support herself andyoung ones on so small a pittance. Shewent to live at a second class hotel inChicago, where ultimately she foundherself scarcely able to pay her bi'ls.The result was her determination topart with some of her personal effects,and it was for this purpose that, accomo panied by her faithful negro servantLizzie, the only one who left the luxuriesf of the White House to follow the for-s tunes of the President's widow, she vis-5 ited our city, and very soon entered intoe negotiations with a well known brokeron Broadway, to whom she had pre-viously addressed the following letter :

As one enters the room where thesearticles are exhibited, the first that at-tracts the eye are five camel's hair

, shawls hanging carelessly on the backof a chair. They are of the finest tex-ture and were considered the most ex-

= pensive in the market at the time ofit their purchase, the largest costing $1,600t in gold and the others from $325 to $500

d each. Two white Paisley shawls lie onthe lounge. They are of remarkable

a fineness and delicate finish, and arevalued at $300 each. On the showcaselies an exquisite and magnificent white)f point lace shawl which cost $1,000, and

g near by are five of the same, averaginga from $200 to $400 each. Seven heavyLt double point lace shawls included in theK. list are worth $4,500, and a parasol cov-

n ered with the richest of thread lace, isvalued at $250. C'onspicuous amongLl the articles is a Russian sable cape of,f the finest and softest fur. It is "-ery

d large, and cost $4,500 in gold, and is ac-Lt companied by a sable boa valued accord-ingly. Thrown upon the furs is a pointlace handkerchief of the most delicatetexture, worth $100, and lying in a pileupon a long table are twenty-three,f dresses, whose estimated value is $10,-0 000. Two elaborately wrought brace-lets, of the finest gold and uniquelymade, are valued at $800, and in theshow case are displayed some of thea richest gems in the world. An equisiteset of diamonds, comprising a pin andv ear-rings, the stones of rare brilliancyand large size, are exposed for sale.1'They are valued at $1,.500. A singlee solitaire diamond ring, of great brillian-e cy, is valued at $1,500, and two smallerones cost $350 and $500 respectively. Aset of solitaire diamond ear-rings is val-ued at $300, and alongside are a watchand chain worth $1,000. It would bet too difficult to describe the various trin-kets and other articles offered for sale,the value of the whole of which is esti-mated at close on to $30,000 in gold.

Such is the wardrobe and personalparaphernalia of one who but lately oc-cupied so important a position in society,the wife of a man whose name wasknown throughout the civilized worldand whose untimely death called for thesympathy of almost all mankind.-N. Y..Herald, Oct. 4.
