A correspondent desires to know if we
are not afraid that our remarks on the

will not cause Mr.' St. Clair Abrams to

is a very absurd one. It is a mis
taken idea to suppose that two news
paper men cannot carry on a controversy
without wrangling. It is true, Mr.
Abrams is a man of peculiar ideas, and
frequently aggressive, but in nearly every
personal controversy be has had, he has
been upon the defensive. There will be
no war between the Morxinc, News and
the Atlanta News, though that need not
hinder our correspondent from subscrib
ing for both journals.
Columbus Enquirer of Monday: Since
September 1st to last night Colnmbns
fas warehoused 31,610 bales of cotton,
against 23,821 last year, showing an in
crease of 7,76-7. The Soutnwestem Bail-
road brought 1,048 bales, a decrease of
210 bales; the Mobile and Girard 9,201,
an increase of 1,660, the We a tern Bail
road of Alabama 1,358, an increase cf
34*2; the North and South Bailroad 1,101;
a decrease of 81; the river 4,330, an in
crease of 2.099; wagons 14,578, an in
crease of 3,734. Thus it will be seen that
all routes have increased receipts heavily
except the Southwestern and tho North
and South railroads. The river shows the
heaviest comparative gains. Last season
we received from that source 8,415 bales.
Thus far we have warehoused over half
that amount, and expect to get 8,000
more, making the total for the season at
least 12.000 bales. 4,000 more than in
18734. Columbus, according to the pres
ent rates of receipts, should get 70,000
bales this season, against 61,099 last year.
" Rome Commercial: The farmers all
report that the cotton crop in this section
is abuut picked out. True, there is a
little left here and there, and a desultory
sort of picking may go on for two or
three weeks, hut it will add very little to
the gathered crop. We suppose a very
correct estimate of the cotton crop can
now be made. Cotton consumers may
rest assured that they will get but very
little cotton from this time out, and
should make their arrangements accord
ingly. We are also informed—and we had
though,: just to the contrary—that the
fanners have made more money this year
than any since the war. We hope our
informant is well posted. If everybody
else in the world could make money and
gat rich we could then be cheerfully
poor. We hope the good rumor about
the prospects generally, from matrimonial
down, may be true. It is high time that
the long lane of poverty and trouble that
the Southern people have been traveling,
was turning. We think it began to
deflect on the 3d of last month. If so,
let it keep on it its deflectiveness, is our
prayer.

THE LONGSHOREMEN.
Nkw^ York, December 2.—Nearly all
the ship owners who had been waiting
for tbe settlement of the longshoremen
difficulties to subside have begun, the
work of loading and unloading in Brook
lyn, Hoboken and Jersey City, as well as
New York, employing non-society men
in every instance. Some of the heavier
firms announce their intention of never
again employing Union men. All
spoke well of tbe class of labor
offering. Skilled longshoremen are being
attracted from abroad, and large numbers
of men from tbe coal mining regions are
also applying for work, which is readily
furnished them. Occasional slight
skirmishes occur between the strikers
[Correspondence of the New York Evening Post]
One of the most interesting as well as
one of the most important criminal trials
ever held in Italy, is that which is at
present going on in Ravenna. This old
city, so interesting to the historical
scholar, so identified with early Chris
tian art, so fallen from her former high
estate, and yet so bravely bearing her
self in the corner where she seems to have
been thrust by her sister cities—was for
years under the coninion of a set of
wretches, who, if they did not attack
! their victims in open day in her piazzas,
at least did so within sight of her gates.
Ravenna is situated in the midst of a
very level plain, washed by two rivers,
which, but for the canal into which their
waters have hero led, would flood the
city streets. The horizon is skirted by a
great pine forest, resembling our oak
openings. It will be understood, of
course, that I speak of the stone pine,
whose branches, lopped or falling off to a
great distance above the roots, spread out
like a double fan at the top, and give
shade and coolness to the earth beneath
them. Grassy glades, therefore, abound
in these pine woods,
Hence it would seem that one of the
indispensable necessities of brigandage is
wanting in tho neighborhood of Ravenna.
The woods afford no momentary hiding
place, and there are no mountains in the
neighborhood. Yet nowhere in Italy was
it more frequent, more barefaced, and
more bloody. The miscreant who robbed
his victim outside one of the gates or
dered him to return to the city by an
other, and coolly walked back by the road
and the new laborers, but no serious
difficulty. The steamship and sail-vessel 1 theYatteiThad'takenT'’^Night atfteTnight

troubles are over. At a Convention of

INTERNATIONAL LAW.
Berlin, December 2.—A dispatch to
the Time* says Russia contemplates
the reassembling next March, in St.
Petersburg, of the International Law
Conference lately held in Brussels. Ex
ertions will probably be made to secure
tbe consent of Great Britain and some
minor States. The work of the Confer
ence will be confined to the enactment of
more purely philanthropic clauses of the
programmo proposed by Russia. If these
endeavors fail the three Northern powers
may possibly settle the matter alone.
CRISIS IN THE FRENCH CABINET.
London, December 2.—The Times cor
respondent at Paris telegraphs that the
last letter of Count de Chambord has
caused a division in the Cabinet. Two
Legitimist Ministers, in consequence of
its injunctions, hesitate to support De-
mara for the organization of the Presi
dent’s powers. On account of this disa
greement the terms of the presidential
message have not yet been agreed to by
tbe Cabinet. The President will accept
the resignation of the dissenting minis
ters if they remain firm in their refusal.
CANADIAN SMUGGLER.
London, Ont., December 2.—Darger
and Meyer, the absconding clothiers, have
gone to New Orleans with their booty.
The goods they took from their estab
lishment were packed in nine large
trunks, and amount in value to nearly
one hundred thousand dollars, consisting
of jewelry, kid gloves, and other expen
sive wares. The tranks were smuggled
across the Detroit river as ordinary bag
gage. The customs officers ore in pursuit.
SUING AN EDITOR.
London, December 2.—A special to
the Daily Netcs, from Constantinople,
states that the Grand Viszier has sued
the editor of the suppressed Letant
Herald, for defamation of character, and
that in the event of his condemnation
the Turkish government will apply to tbe
British embassy for the editor’s expul
sion from tbe country.
HAVEMEYER.
New York, December 2.—The family
of Mayor Havemeyer have consented to
a public funeral on Saturday from St.
Paul’s Methodist Episcopal Church. The
Ninth Regiment acts as a military escort,
and the Old Guard as a guard of honor.
Huntinoton, W. Va., December 2.—
Sixty-six employees of the Chesapeake
and Ohio Bailroad struck for back wages.
An engine with the mail train was allowed
to pass. The other trains are detained.
DEAD.
Boston, December 2.—Gen. Robert
O. Tyler, Quartermaster of the District of
the Atlantic, is dead.
A Blasted Blossom.—A very sad story
is told by some of tbe Kansas papers of
the fate of an innocent and sensitive
young lady. Nearly a year ago a man
named Bragg, living at Topeka, while
acting as nn express agent, appropriated
money for his own use which did not be
long to him. He was convicted of em
bezzlement and sentenced to the peni
tentiary. Bragg had a daughter, young,
handsome and accomplished, who wil
lingly shared her father’s sorrow, and
whom tho world compelled to share his
disgrace. Not wishing to remain in To
peka, however, under such embarrassing
circumstances, yet faithful to her only
remaining parent. Miss Bragg removed
to Texas and lived with her father's peo
ple, keeping up a constant and affec
tionate correspondence with him. But
the story of the convict and his daughter
traveled like the wind, and soon the
jibes and jeers of the heartless world fell
upon her ear from lips far less pure and
hearts more sordid than ever her’s could
be. This was more tlisn she could bear.
Once she had braved the storm, and that,
too, when it had oome down with its first
wild sweep. But now hope was gone.
She knew of no wav to turn for peace—
but one, and under tbe subtle but gentle
influence of a dose of laudanum, she fell
to sleep—a fair flower blasted by the
withering breath of the scandal-mongers.
London is tired of the noise made by
steel and iron ties on its carriage wheels,
and now proposes that the owners of all
vehicles which ply in tbe public streets
shall be compelled to have the wheels of
their vehicles bound with India rubber
tires. Of course,-trials have been made
of rubber tires, and it is assumed that it
can be furnished in sufficient quantities
to meet the increased demand.
B BA VERY or a Young Lady.—A negro
namod Shell attempted to commit a
nameless crime on a young lady at Ruth
erford College, N. C., Sunday night.
Alarmed by her screams, he tried to moke
his escape through the window whence he
had cotton in, when she caught him by
the lee and held him until assistance

the Hickory Press.

$6,000 in currency and $4,000 in United
States bonds taken therefrom. The
money was received by Mr. Hildebrand

their spoils and lay plans for their in
crease. The rich proprietors were ordered
to leave a certain sum in a certain place,
and they dared not disobey the order.
When murder was considered necessary
lots were drawn, and the wretch upon
whom the lot had fallen faithfully per
formed the injunctions of his feliows,and
often, accompanied by them, attended
tbe funeral of his victim. If one of their
number shuddered at the idea of staining
his hands with blood; if he attempted to
warn his victim, especially if there was
the least reason to suspect that he might
reveal the wickedness of himself and fel
lows, swift vengeance was sure to over
take him. So certain was he of this fact
thRt he made no resistance.
One poor fellow who had been sum
moued by the society to go to a certain
place for orders, got np in the morning,
dressed, and all unarmed went forth to
meet his doom, bidding bis mist
goodbye forever as he left the room. A
few hours after bis corpse was brought
back to the house. The very police were
in abject fear of these ruffians, and with
reason. The guard at Porta Nuova was
called one night to open the gate. As he
stooped to do so, he was shot and died a
few hours after. His murderer shot him
by mistake for another gnard suspected
of baring denounced some of bis deeds
of darkness. Two brothers, named
Lonis and Augustus Tossinari, were shot
tbe same evening four years ago, because
the one. when in a state of intoxication
let out the secrets of the association, an( I
the other demanded with threats a larger
share of plunder than his companions
chose to give him. Augustus, in the
city, was stabbed in twenty-six places by
ono set of ruffians; Louis was assailed by
another set just outside the Porta Nuova,
and received nineteen wounds. Their
murderers duly attended as mourners at
the funeral.
This frightful state of affairs which I
have described bad thoroughly paralyzed
tbe police and the courts when, at last,
Chevalier Serafini was sent to Ravenna as
head of the police. He is a thoroughly
fearless man, and perhaps he might have
called himself the only fearless man in
tbe city, so thoroughly was the popu
lation frightened by the ass
tion which followed instantly upon
the attempted punishment of crime.
He began his labors by infusing a little
of his own courage into his subordinates.
He then set himself to discover tbe names
of suspected persons who had no visible
means of subsistence. These were placed
under surveillance and forbidden to leave
their homes after sundown. Meanwhile,
by means of anonymous letters, written
by trembling members of the associa
tion, and others who had become cog
nizant of their practices, by whispered
words, by maudlin expressions of re
pentance from drunken ruffians, he
learned the names of the leaders of the
band. But it was imprudent for him to
take active measures against them until
be had witnesses of some of their iniqui
ty. If ho could not bring suoh over
whelming proofs of their guilt before a
jury as would secure their condemnation,
it was better to restrain them as ho wag
doing by domiciliary visits, and making
them prisoners in their own houses than
to attempt their triaL
Among the persons whom he bad sub
mitted to this Bort of discipline was a
man named Giovanni Bis to, a newspaper
seller, who was a frequenter of low tav
erns; a noisy, rough fellow, but a man
who seems never to have joined the
bond in their robberies and murders, al
though be was in the habit of meeting
them and drinking with them constantly.
This man voluntarily came forward and
offered to reveal all be knew with regard
to them. His revelations were listened
to, but be was kept nnder the strictest
surveillance, ordered nnder pain of severe
punishmnnt to giveno warning to any
one whom be had or had not betrayed;
and for six months a patient and severe
examination of the proofs of the asser
tions he made went on. Gradually, also,
the public mind was so far calme4 that
the reign of terror caused by these mis
creants became much less terrible. Some
of the best citizens gt Ravenna '
known of the existence of this
some of them had suffered in person and
property at their hands, and had yet been
afraid to denounce them. It was better
to pay for one’s life than never to feel for
a moment secure of it. - But this state
of things is at an end, and the witnesses
against the malefactors now on their trial
are as outspoken and decided in their
testimony as they would be in any other
city.
The prisoners stand convicted of thir
teen murders, besides innumerable at
tempts at assassination, robbery, larceny,
Ac. Of course this list includes by no
means all their evil deeds, but only those
which cun be proved against them. The
first on the list is the Turkish Vice-Con
sul, who, while quietly going home one
night met two men, well wrapped up in
cloaks, and a moment after passing them
was stabbed in the shoulder. No reason
seems to be known for this little atten
tion. At present the murderer of Cleste
Gheraidi is on trial. His crime was the
protection of a man whom the band bad
ordered to be killed, and . his murderer
hesitated as long as be dared, bat finally
killed Gherardi os the only means of
saving his own life.
Grant on Sherman.—If Gen. Grant is
remandetj to private life after ’7fe, isn’t
it likely that Gen; Sfempan fj)l gfyji
him a situation in the artnjr. They arp
not on good terms now—indeed, they
haven’t been since Gen. S. refused Mrs.
Grant’s request that CoL Fred, be placed
on bis staff—and it isn’t probable that
they will make np before the next elec
tion. ]t h«s gone too far for that, and
Sherman betook himself to St. Louis to
get out of the way of it, Tfce pUipr day
a young man of that city applied to flic
General of the Army for a place at head
quarters—perhaps chief cleric—and the
next day received his application back
again endorsed after this wise: “I have
neither favor nor influence at Washing
ton, and am refused the privilege of em
ploying a clerk, having to detail officers
or soldiers for that purpose. I therefore

The Statns of the States in the Union.
(From the Louisville (Jeffersonian) Democrat.}
Some of the big dailies are very indus
triously explaining what tbe Democratic
party will not do when it comes into
possession of the Federal offices. There
may, possibly, be some profit in such
course, and it is tbe kind of light busi
ness in which shallow thinkers and penny-
a-line writers love to engage. Their
planations are not binding upon any
one, not even themselves, and they speak
altogether without authority. Nothing
they can say or do will in anywise disturb
tbe current of the reaction whioh has
pnt the Democratic masses to the front
once again.
The masses of our people are Demo
cratic from instinct more than from edu
cation, but they ore sufficiently well in
formed to know that the legislation and
administration of the past fourteen years,
based on the idea that the States have
been, or ought to be, consolidated into
“an indivisible nation,” has been at their
expense, affecting them in their pockets
and in their persons. As the States have
been lobbed of one power after another,
to build np a huge “nationality,” with
.the. centre of authority at Washington,
they became less valuable as citizens.
They realize that the power which has
been taken from the State was taken
from them, and now, impoverished by
such a process of depletion, in spirit and
in purse, they have arisen in their Belf-
defense.
It is not hard to understand, when
you are sorely oppressed, from whence
the oppression proceeds. To get back
their lost liberties, and to be left once
again free to seek their happiness and
pursue their avocations without molesta
tions through protective tariffs, national
bankB, and arbitrary domination in the
domestic affairs of the State, the State
Democratic masses mean to restore the
Democratic party to the Federal control
of the Union. The party will go into
office in 1876 for that express purpose.
Notwithstanding any explanations to the
contrary, the party will then do and undo
whatever is necessary to administer the
government of the Union upon the theory
that the States are free and independent.
It has been administered fourteen years
upon the theory that the States are not
free and idependent in the Union, but
that they are provinces or departments
of a congregation of people massed into
one great State or nation; that whatever
powers they exercise, they are derived
from the nation,” the American people
as one consolidated mass. From the dire
fruits of this infamous doctrine there is
no escape, except in a return to the ever
tone doctrine of Democracy.
As to what that doctrine is, in its ap
plication to our institutions, there can be
no room for misunderstanding, and there
is no misunderstanding. Tbe masses wbo
voted the Democratic tickets this year
understand it. The scheming politicians
have utterly failed to obliterate it from
the public heart, and it is now again the
talisman by which the monster who has
reared bis hydra-head on the rains he
made of the Union of free States, volun
tarily united for the better protection of
their sovereignty, will be prostrated in
the dost.
Thic restoration will do no harm to any
man who is true to the Republican form
of government. The Jeffersonian theory
is the common-sense, which is always the
best sense, statement of the principles
upon which it is possible for a people to
govern themselves. The surrender of the
idea that the StateB are sovereign in the
Union, means a nation, which in its tarn
means a despotism, and then empire.
Thank the good God 1 “the nation” has
already hurt so many millions of our
commoners that they have resolved to
overthrow it. It is not too late.
Now, while this al’-ibsorbing contest is
pending, it is a poor business'for “distin
guished” Democratic politicians and “in
fluential” dailies to be engaged in ex
plaining what will not happen upon the
centennial triumph of the Democratic
masses. Congressman Lamar, and the
gentlemen of his unfortunate proclivity
for over-mnch speaking, will save their
reputations by keeping a jndioious silence
upon that uncertain theme. They can
find enough to do if they will turn their
attention to an elucidation of the great
doctrines of the States-Union system.
A Murderer Riddled with Bullets
and Bunk in a Southern River.—On
Monday John 'Williams, a burly negro,
murdered Ester Cook, a colored girl of
thirteen years, near Fort Vincent. He
confessed his guilt, and as soon as his
confession was known a mob of colored
men surrounded tbe jail, and by force of
numbers succeeded in taking him from
tbe guards, with the avowed intention of
giving him a short shrift and along rope.
They fastened a heavy chain to his neck
and led him to a flatboat lying a few linn
dred yards below Port Vincent, where
they procured a skiff. The murderer and
the avengers then entered a frail vessel
and palled to the middle of tbe Amite
river, There Williams was thrown by
strong arms into the depths, where for a
time his executioners taunted him with
hopes of escape, until, satisfied with
futile attempts, they ended his murderous
career by literally riddling him with bul
lets. This done, and Ester Cook avenged,
Williams’ body was permitted to sink
beneath the swift flowing waters, where
it was nearly devoured by fish.—Jf. O.
Times. -
Horrible Affair in Arkansas.—A dis
graceful butchery occurred at Mavvell,
Arkansas, on Monday, when half a dozen
drunken negroes quarreled among them
selves and pitching upon one of their
number beat him for stealing a fisli. A
white man named Mathews interfered,
and tbe negroes attacked him, bnt were
driven off by his friends. Subsequently
Mathews left the party and went into a
saloon, where be bod been but a moment
when a gang of twenty negroes sur
rounded the place, and with fife and
drum gathered in a few moments fifty
mqre, all yejling and conducting them-
selves in a most disorderly manner and
calling for Mathews. The saloon keeper
d his door, but upon a threat that
the building would be burned unless
Mathews came ont, he unlocked the door
and stepped ont, bnt had hardly tonched
the doorsteps before the negroes seized
and beat him terribly, and finally cut his
throat from ear to ear, stabbed him in a
dozen places, and, leaving him dead on
the ground, fled. No
Home Life.—The New York Hetkodist,
at considerable length, urges attention to
the improvement of home life. It well
says that the foundation of family life is
laid in self-saorifioe; so the structure
most be built upon it. Children cannot
be good and happy, and prosper, unless
jg y regard the proper example set them
their parents. To them they owe
self-sacrifice as a debt; they owe it like
wise to their brothers and sisters, on the
principle of equality in rights and of fel-
owship. Tastes and desires will inces

The Louisiana Conspiracy.
We learn from very trustworthy sources
that it is the purpose of the carpet-bag
authorities in Louisiana to coant in the
Republican candidates for State officers,
with tbe majority, if not all, of the Re
publicans who ran for Congress, and a
sufficient number of the defeated nomi
nees to the Legislature to control that
body and thereby prevent the impeach
ment of Kellogg and secure the United
States Senator. Grant is in the plot, and
has agreed to carry it through with the
bayonets of the army. The ultimate
object which Grant is aiming at is under
stood to be the election of lus brother-in-
law Casey to the Senate.
We learn further that if this great crime
against the people of Louisiana is perpe
trated the conspirators profess to appre
hend that vengeance will be summarily
inflicted upon some of their leaders; and
they name Kellogg and Packard as two
whom the Conservatives have resolved to
put to death.
We credit the report that tbe thieves
who have so long preyed upon Louisiana
under cover of Grant’s protection intend
to oommit these frauds upon the elective
franchise; and there is no doubt that
Grant will countenance and sustain them
now as he has heretofore done in the
commission of thes6 felonies. Bat we
hope no outbreak of violence will follow
from these wrongs. True, if Kellogg,
Packard and Casey were to be killed,
three sneaking villains would be put per
manently ont of the way; bnt no (
would come of it so long as those t
bolder villains, Grant, Williams and
Bobeson, could use the army, the navy
and the courts to defy, and set at naught
the verdict of the electors delivered
the polls.
Retribution may advance elowly, bnt it
is sore to come, though not by the vio
lent sheddiug of blood, however vile.
Armed with the majesty of the law, the
new House of Representatives will lay
bare the Louisiana infamies, while the
results of the next Presidential election
will send some of the head conspirators
to the penitentiary unless they emulate
the example and follow in the footsteps
of the cognate scoundrels of the old Tam
many ring, and flee to climes where ex
tradition treaties are unknown.—H. T.
Sun, 26tii.
Costly Improvements in Washington
City.—The amount disbursed by the late
District government for improvements
can now be arrived at with some degree
of accuracy. The ring asserted that the
limit of $10,000,000 for the District debt
had not been exceeded; but it now turns
out that the Board of Audit designated by
Congress have already ascertained an in
debtedness of $22,000,000, and there are
about $3,000,000 more of claims, ap
parently well founded, to be shouldered
by Congress or the tax-payers. The
amounts collected from the tax-payers by
special assessments before Congress in
tervened may be estimated at $5,000,000,
and the appropriations made by Congress
for streets, Ac., five millions or more.
Deducting from the aggregate of these
sums the old corporation debt, the
expenditure under the Shepherd
regime must have been over $30,
000,000. The taxable property o:
the whole District was about ninety-six
millions on a high valuation. Mr. Shep.
herd’s* transactions in real estate, which
were publicly recorded during the time
he ran the machine and regulated the
values of real estate at his own sweet will,
was about $800,000, and the value of the
house into which he has just moved is
some $150,000. There is authority for
stating that none of the late board of
public works, save Mr. Willard, paid any
of the sewerage tax, which fell heavily on
other citizens. A good deal of indigna
tion is felt at the fact, now ascertained,
that the District government paid’out of
the moneys arising ont of the.tax-payers,
for counsel to defend them during the
District investigation. Mr. Mattingly got
$7,500, Mr. Staunton, $7,500, and Dick
Harrington, the conspiracy hero, $5,000.
All this came ont of the general fond, and
has been allowed by the Board of Audit.
In other words, the ring plundered tbe
people, and the latter have to pay the
lawyers to defend them.—Cor. Courier-
Journal.
Shocking Outrage and Murder and
Lynching of the Perpetrator.—One of
the most atrocious crimes known in the
annals of horrible deeds was perpetrated
upon an innooent maiden, eleven years
of age, Miss Victoria, daughter of Mrs.
Martha, and the late Robt. Hogue, about
twelve miles from this place. The child
left the house about one o’clock, p. m.,
on Thursday, to get an animal which was
in tbe field near by, for her elder sister to
ride to the meeting of the Grange Lodge.
She caught the mare, led her out of the
field, and passed between it and a small
ravine that emptied into the Yegua, close
to a watering place used by the family
for watering their stock, where §he was
going to water the mate. As she arrived
at the bank of the watering place she was
seized by the infernal devil, it is believed,
because here are discovered evidences of
a violent scuffle. After perpetrating his
hellish design, he terminated her exist,
ence, perhaps, by thrusting a sharp bowie
knife down her throat. We ore warrant-
ed in this presumption by her general
appearance, and the verdict of tbe jury
of inquest Her dead, mangled, and
outraged body was dragged about fifty
yards, heaved down an eight or ten feet
precipice into a pool of water, where she
would have sunk from sight had-her head
not fell in the fork of a tree near the
water, which kept her face from being
submerged.
Later.—The negro who was captured a
few days since, suspected of committing
the crime, confessed guilt, and was
lynched by hanging Sunday evening last
by a large and exasperated assemblage of
people.—Oiddings {Texas) Tribune.
An Infant Kit-led by Jealous Par
rots.—Two young married people, a M.
and Mme. Chalban, who occupied the
second floor of a house in the Rue flea
Moines at Batignolles, France, were tiie
fortunate possessors of-a fine infant two
weeks old, and also of a pair of splendid
blue and scarlet parrots. Recently the
young couple quitted the room for a
short time, leaving the child asleep in its
cradle and the two parrots sitting on
their respective perches. When they re
turned what was their horror in behold
ing the parrots perched upon the sides of
the cradle, and engaged in tearing the
face of tbe helpless baby with their pow
erful beaks.
The father, in the first excess of his
fuiy and distress, killed the two birds,
but he was too late to save bis child, wbo
died in a few hours from the wounds in
flicted upon it. It was a fortunate cir
cumstance that it did not survive its in-
juries, as its eyesight had been totally
destroyed. Jealousy is supposed to have
been the motive that impelled the par
rots to this unusual act of ferocity, as,
before the birth of the infant, they had
been much petted and caressed, and since
that time they hod been comparatively
neglected.
Negro Deterioration and Colored
Schools—I have been interested to as
certain whether any general improve
ment in the negroes has been discovered
by the teachers since (ho close or the war.
The almost universal reply is in the nega
tive. The negroes as a class are poorer
and more degraded to-day than they were
nine years ago. Anumbeyof young men
baTe gone from the Montgomery schools
to Howard University, to Oberlin, and to
other Northern institutions, and I am as
sured by those who took the greatest in
terest in them, that only one or two have
turned out well. The remainder have all
contracted bad habits, and two haye re
cently died of disease caused by ffissipa,
tion. While these are discouraging facts,
do not think they furnish any argument
)r the discontinuance of the colored
schools.
Another Flash Wedding.
People who may have fondly imagined
that the late wedding in Chicago was
something grand will let down their opin
ions a peg or two on reading the re
porters’ story of Miss Sharon’s wedding—
which, pardon us, we do not mean to
print. Miss Sharon’s papa is a golden
dustman of San Francisco, much wealth
ier and more generous than the lamented
Boffin. When Missy got married her
papa gave her a million dollars outright.
She can eat off gold plates every day of
her life and spin them ont of the window
when she gets through if she likes. She
has another source of exquisite enjoy
ment. The chandeliers in her father's
house are three times more expensive
than the ones in Mr. Honore’s house,
and there are ever so many of them—all
of which must be a great comfort to one
just beginning married life, to be sure.
Our lady readers wfll read with interest
the following description of the bridal
dress:
She wore a dress of white satin, with
Watteau train, the front
_ . . while the train was superb
ly brocaded with imitations of ferns in
cluster. The front was entirely covered
and almost concealed by Doint lace of
elaborate pattern, arranged in three
flounces, displayed over crepe de lisse,
the flounces reaching to the train, and
being terminated at each end by a
bouquet of orange-flowers and camellias.
Tbe bouquets were so massive that they
concealed the skirt at the side from belt
to hem. The waist was of plain satin,
out high, with a point lace reaching
about the neck. It was ornamented with
two small bouquets of orange-flowers and
camellias, one worn from the corsage,
and the other at the throat. The sleeves
were close-fitting, and covered from the
shoulder to the waist with point lace.
Ruffles of point lace surrounded the waist,
half concealing the tiny, white-gloved
hands. The vail was of rare maline net
tuile, bordered with point lace to match
the laces of the dress, and the handker
chief was of similar costly and delicate
material. A fan of point lace, mounted
with many-colored pearls, completed one
of the most exquisite bridal costumes ever
worn by an American lady. The jewelry
was diamonds of the finest water, the
parure including a rich diamond Pecklaoc
S iren by her father, and a beautiful
iamond brooch, the gift of the groom,
earrings, etc. She carried a small bouquet
of orange-blossoms, violets, and camel
lias.
A Washington Scoundrel.—To-day
there .walks with head erect a man who,
after raining one innocent, unsuspecting
girl, married another, who was almost
her near neighbor. His wife is very
beautiful and attractive. When the story
reached her ears, and the poor little babe
was brought to her notice, her heart al
most broke, and she resolved to leave the
man, although he had been her husband
a few months. Relations thought it best
to take no steps in tho matter, and she
was "dissuaded from obtaining a divorce.
But tbe smooth faced villain was not
content with the misery he had wrought,
but sought to regain his power over the
girl during the temporary absence of his
wife. Poor thing, she was trying so hard
to be worthy of the forgiveness of her
father and sister, who h*d not cast her
off. One day, a car filled with passen
gers, was passing down the street One
young man in the car called the atten
tion of another to a beautiful girl wbo
was about entering a store and named
her as the mistress of . He had mis
taken the innocent young sister, and a
woman in the car, who overheard the re
mark and knew the girl, made it her busi
ness to call at the house of (he two Bisters
and relate what had occurred in the car.
The young lady tnrned upon her unfor
tunate sister, and with vehemence re
proached her for the disgrace she
brought upon the family, and added that
she would no longer Uve in the same
honse with her, hut would hereafter live
with a relative in another city, where she
could escape insults. The poor wounded
heart gave way, and the forsaken one fell
to the floor in stronger convulsions. In
three days she died. Her betrayer sat
upon the steps of his father-in-law’s
dwelling and watched the funeral as ;t

Their Last Exploit.—The ’Washing
ton Ring, as our readers know, employed
Lawyer Stanton, Lawyer Mattingly, and
■—most famous of the trio—Lawyer Dick
Harrington, (now on trial in the Criminal
Court for felony,) to defend them before
the Committee of Congress, appointed to
investigate tbe city government and
affairs. The result of the investigation
was that Congress, responding to the in
dignation and disgust of the country at
the exposure made by the committee,
abolished the city government and
tnrned the whole Ring out But before
going, consistent to tbe last, they attempt
ed to pat on tbe city a handsome cost for
their lawyers. Their Auditor, Lay—one of
his last acts—had the effrontery to allow
and certify a fee for Stanton of $7,500,
the same for Mattingly, and $5,000 for
Harrington. Now, we do think that, in
the way of downright impudence, we
never beard anything to come UD to that.
The memorialists bad demanded, and
Congress granted the investigation in the
interests of the city and of public justice.
They prosecuted the inquiry at heavy ex
pense; principally, we understand, at the
Cost of their most -xmbllo-spirited
charitable citizens. If they had asked
that their expenses in the prosecution of
the investigation which resulted in such
?reat advantage to the public should be
x>rne by the public, there might have
been some reason, and natural justice, if
legal justice in it. Rut what possible
o hsa the ring to put on the public
tbe cost of their effort to defeat public
justice ?—Baltimore Gaiette.
Murdered by Htr Brothers.—Cincin
nati, O., November 25.—The murderers
of Christopher Harris, near Bethany,
Butler county, Sunday night, have con
fessed to-day. They are William and
Jane Hams, his father and mother, and
Jasper, Samuel and James Harris, his
three brothers. The family are very low,
stupid, ignorant, savage people. Fight
ing among them has been common.
They say Christopher committed an in-
decent offense Sunday night, and Jasper
and his other brothers took him ont to
the wood pile and killed him for it. The
parties concerned, five in number, are
arrested, and the yonng girls of the fam
ily are under guard.
