(me: the Kansas City Times.) A horrible and somewhat singular death occurred in this city yesterday morning. A young man named John Diina, who‘reported himself as recent. 1y from Lower Canada, was discov- ered at; Atchison by the brakeman on the St. Joseph and Kansas City as- senger train concealed beneath) a. sleeping car. He had been riding be- neath the car from St. Joseph. having held himself upon the true-ks and rested his feet down upon the brake beam. The brakeman advised him to get out of his dangerous osition, but- it appeared that he fail to take his advice. He held on to his .uncom~ fortable position, and reached Har- lem, opposite Kansas City, in the‘ middle of the night He was warned ‘ that he would not be permitted to‘ ride longer in the truck of the sleep- ing car, which was to be switched ofi‘ of the Kansas City train and attached to the outgoin St. Louis train. He attempted to Isongage himself from the truck, but, owmg to his cold and benumbed condition, was unable to do and’ cé‘x‘i‘nting him fifty brand-new gold._piecos into his hand, stamped with his royal likeness, he said tothe astonished farmer, who knew not what Wis coming,“ Thrus‘ting his hand into his pocket, The king, well pleased with his answer, said,“ “Bravoly spoken, old (man.

This is my debt toward which I pay tw'b groschen adny. The third air of gresehen, which I lend away, spend for my children, that they may receive Christian instruction. This Will come handy to me and my wife when we get old. With the last two gresehen I maintain two sick eistere, whom I would not be com elled to keep; this I give for the Lor ’s sake."

The ship, in any case, cannot be man'jr days at see. before they are discovered. Every fresh be ahead of beef or biscuit that is unhoaged diminishes their chances of immunity; still there have been known instances of the unfortunate creatures beinginadvertently jammed up between and behind heavy piles of merchandise, and so eufl’ering aliving entombment rivalling that of 0m- sta-nce de Beverley in horror.

' It’he lest named term is enf- fieiently curious to call for explana- ;tion, and in tendering it we touch ‘ upon one of the most wretched features of emigrant life. A, “etewnwey” is an individual who, at the last moment, just before the vessel leaves the docks for her destination, Blinks on board. creeps below, and conceals himself as securely as he is able in remote nooks and corners of the lower deck or the forepeak.

At five o’clock on the 12th instant, the Thames steamship, with the tree 5 and stores already enumerated, finafiy set sail for the Gold Coast, Lifter being delayed two days by the fog. Not counting these two days, she was got ready in just a. week after her zir- rivnl at the Royal Arsenal, a fact 're- gsrde‘d as very satisfactory, consider- ing the extent of her cargo, which includes 900 tons of revisions, 280 tons of ammunition, 1 0 tons of cloth- ing from I’imlico, 400 tons of cools and about 200 tons of miscellaneous stores. Her freight is larger, espeoi~ ally in n Wder, than that of any ship which as receded her on the same errand. 'e is the thirteenth of the hired transports engaged in the expedition, and a. considerable quan- tity of stores has been sent out in the‘ ships re ularly tradin between Eng- land an Africa, wit out reckoning the cargo of Her Majesty’s ship Dromedary and the troop-ships. This week 150 tons of meat were sentfrom the Victualling Yard, Depiford, to Liverpool, for transport toCn tain Glover, at Accra, by private s ips, and similar consignments are going off every week. Cases of stores. for the next ship, whiohwill probably be the Sprite, are aooumnlatin at Wool- wioh and Deptford. At t e former place five additional surf boats and two more hospital boats arrived yes- terday from the builder's yard at Limehouse, whence two more only of the former are to be delivered to make four; dozen. Those boats are contrived on a novel plan, and those which were sent out early orejaid to have answered admirably, the our 0 ofthe Bonny'having been landed y them. in four days, which was quick work. There are ten surf boats and four hospital boats yet remaining to be sent out, six of the whole number of surf boats being for the Admiralty and the other forty two for the use of the Army. At the clothing factory, Pimlico, the workpeople are still busy making the Ashantee uniform, but nothing is yet said about any ad ditional troops being forwarded to Africa. The 2nd Battalion of the 4th King's Own, and some other regi- ments which have been mentioned, have, howeverLgn the merest rumor, begun to make preparations for de- nrture, and in sbme cases all leave 8,3 been stopped, and the officers who were away called in, lest'a sud- den order should nrrive and find them not ready; A few days ago, General Sir John Adye, Director of Artillery and Stores, said that a whole battery of Artillery officers, non-commission- edi oflicers and men had volunteered for the expedition, and it is said that this was the A Battery of the 11th Brigade at Woolwich.

A year later the doctor’severcd the lids and found the eyes all right, and the eyesight was good. Life with this subject was not unusually rough again until he was six years old, when he was seized with rheumatic fever, and it ended in a fever sore on his right leg. The bone decayed and passed away from the knee to the ankle, and a consultation of physicians was held on the subject of amnumtion. It wee1 decided that ho was too weak to stand i 1t, and so the limb remained upon the] rank.
