short space of five hours and forty-five
minutes—about thirty-three miles an
hour. The engine which made this run

the establishment of a Museum, and
having procured a room in Thomasville,
are now ready to receive and solicit from
all quarters anatomical, pathological and
geological specimens for the collection.
A few specimens have already been pre
sented to the society, and the En
terprise has no doubt that a lit
tle activity and energy will in a short
time fill the wells of a large room with a
collection of curiosities, capable of inter
esting the most intelligent and scientific
minds. The County Commissioners have
tendered the use of their room, and Capt.
Paine has the honor of donating the first
specimen in natural history.
The Macon Telegraph gives the par
ticulars of the recent killing of a white
boy by a negro, in Twiggs county, which
we mentioned yesterday. A party of
tidies and gentlemen were assembled
there for a fishing frolic. Toward even
ing some of the young men suffered
themselves to get under the influence of
liquor. Seeing a negro man, whose name
we did not learn, coming across the dam,
they determined to have some fun at his
expense, and finally their fun assumed a
serious aspect, as one of the men—Dave
Hudson—approached him behind and
gave him three or four severe cuts in the
back with a knife. The negro then
turned, with a knife in his hand, and
made a cut at his assailant, striking him
in the neck and severing an artery, which
produced death in about five minutes. We
understand the negro has been commit
ted to jail, though it was the general
•impression that he had acted in self-
defense.
Athens Watchman: Everywhere, ex

^mce our last issue we have had numer-

alton, Oglethorpe, Jackson, Madison,
Hart, Franklin, Banks. Hall, and indeed
of Northeast Georgia. Wherever
properly worked the growing crops are
looking just as well as they can, and now
give promise of an abundant yield. Our
people are beginning to realize* the im
portance of securing an ample provision

manifest improvement in the condition
this section next year.

Thomasville Enterprise: Messrs. Locke
and Loughridge, assistants of the State
Geologist, who have been out prospect
ing in different portions of the State
since September last, are now in Thomas
county, and receiving the attention of
some of our most prominent citizens. As
yet they seem to have made no very im
portant discoveries in this section beyond
occasional lime beds, which our builders
and agriculturists will be glad to hear ex
ists in good supply in accessible locali
ties. They visited on Monday the
plantation of Mr. S. R. Robinson, on the
Ochlockonee, and confirmed the agricul
tural value of the lime bed found at that
place. They are hastily collecting such
geological specimens as can be obtained
in the count},and citizens having knowl
edge of localities where much are sup
posed to exist, may do good by making it
known to them. We hope they will re
main with us long enough to make a fair
canvass of the county, that their report
may be as full as possible upon our re
sources.
Atlanta Herald: We publish elsewhere
a report of a scene in the Georgia Uni
versity, taken from the Northeast Geor
gian. From verbal reports that we have
had of the same occurrence, we feel justi
fied in assuming that it is of quite late
date, and that the present Chancellor is
the Chancellor alluded to. We have
heard considerable complaint directed
towards Dr. Tucker’s” management of the
University, and especially of his methods
of enforcing discipline. The complaints
have come to us, however, so vaguely
that we have felt that they could
not properly be discussed in our columns.
If the report of the scene in the Univer
sity, as published in the Georgian, is
correct, and we presume that it is, of
course, it betrays a lamentable lack of
judgment on Dr. Tucker’s part. No man
can discipline boys by such talk as is re
ported in that article. It will rather tend
the other way. We love the old Univer
sity with a singleness of heart. We
hope that Dr. Tucker’s regime will be
successful. He will never make it so,
however, by such extraordinary means as
he has adopted in the instance to which
the Georgian alludes.
Florida Affairs.
It will be remembered that when
Brother McCallum, of the Jacksonville
Press, began to whet his trusty claymore
upon the curbstone, we predicted that he
was thirsting for gore. He is still after
the Rev. Dr. Hicks, late of Georgia.
Some of the oldest inhabitants of the

Jacksonville lifts up her parched lips,

He doesn’t care to tempt the Indians in

Mrs. Keech has been confined in jail

The Monticello Constitution and the
Jacksonville Press promise to fight it out

these papers do not stand in awe of the
carpet-baggers’ cry of “Bourbon.” Bour
bon is good any way you take it.
Thus the Jacksonville Press : Mr. S.
Puleston, of Monticello, is evidently a
sound Democrat. Among other things
deposited in the corner stone of his new
building were copies of the Monticello
Constitution, Tallahassee Floridian, Sa
vannah News, and the Jacksonville Press.
That building is erected on a sure, and
strong foundation.

CoL F. R. Fildes seems to be the only

The Tampa Guardian says that Capt.
Henry Proseus has an apple tree perfectly
laden with three different sizes of fruit,
and still full of buds and blooms. This
tree blooms and bears lho whole year

only fivs feet high, had three apples
on it.
Colonel John A. Henderson proposes
to engage in the practice of law in Jack

The Tallahassee Plcrriduui says that
work on the factory building is going
ahead as rapidly as brick and lumber can
be obtained. The machinery has been
received and is only waiting the comple
tion of the building to be put in place
and set in motion. The machinery con
sists of looms, carding machines, jennies,
Ac., and is of tfce very latest improve
ment, all purchased under the super
vision of Mr. Shouse, who is a practical
manufacturer. A gin house is also to be
erected forthwith, which will contain the
latest and best approved gins.
The Union thus remarks : As a ques
tion of sound policy we suggest to our
Florida exchanges the propriety of pub
lishing all marriage notices free in the
case of actual settlers, and to charge
double advertising rates for all obituaries.
The reason for this will be obvious.
We wish to develop our resources; there
fore, it is our duty to encourage the
former and throw every obstacle in the
way of success to the latter. The former
needs encouragement, the latter don’t.
In regard to the location of the Ag
ricultural College at Eau Gallie, the
Floridian says: By the express terms of
the law under which the trustees acted,
they were required to locate the college
“at some healthy and conveniently acces
sible point, which location shall he as near
the centre of the State as possible.' 1 It is
no answer to say that they tried to make
the location as near the centre of the
State as possible and couldn’t because the
aid “proffered by the people there failed.”
The question is, where do they find power
to make the location entirely outsides of
any place contemplated by the law cre
ating them ? No one will doubt that the
Legislature might have located the college
wherever they pleased, but instead of
doing so that body created trustees and
gave them the power to locate, with ex
plicit directions to make the location as
centrally as possible. Where did they
get the authority to disregard this direc
tion ? and if it has been disregarded, the
question propounded by our corres
pondent seems quite pertinent, “Has the
college been legally located ?”
The Jacksonville Union says of the
country around Lake George : The lands
bordering on this most beautiful sheet of
water have nearly all passed from old
grantees into the hands of men of the
present generation, and through their
whole extent, from Drayton Island to
Volusia Bay, you can-trace the pioneer as
he marches to the mnsic of his axe, clear
ing the way for the thousands who are to
follow him. Among the latest sales of
Lake George property, and certainly one
of the most important yet made, we
have to record that of the tract known
familiarly as the “Clinch Grant,” on tha
west side of the lake, containing one
thousand acres. It has a magnificent
frontage on the lake of one and a
half miles, and on Silver Creek,
which forms the northern boun
dary, one equally desirable and more
romantically beautiful, extending for
three-fourths of a mile. On the place are
acre after acre of the natural wild orange,
sour and bitter-sweet, more than enough,
after building, to stock the entire prop
erty, making a sweet orange grove of
which the world cannot furnish
a counterpart. On the land aye inex
haustible teds of muck and marl, while
millions of bushels of shell await con
version into lime. These materials, so
useful as fertilizers, are not only abund-
aut iu supply, but easy of access. Lying
in the centre of the orange tier, not so
far north as to fear from frost, nor yet so
far south as to grow fruit too tender for
shipment, with lands of the finest quality,
and in one of the most salubrious por
tions of our favored State, what may we
not hope to witness by-and-by at “Spring
Grove,” the old name of the property,
which the new proprietors will perpetu
ate ?
The Needs of the South.
[From the Boston Globe.]
Now that our good feeling towards our
Southern brethren has been emphasized
in our Centennial celebration, it behooves
us to emphasize that feeling still more by
attention to their special needs. We are
in a favorable position to make success
ful practical efforts for the removal of
the serious evils which still exist among
people of the South, for our greeting will
prevent any misconstruction of our
motives. These evils are emphatically
put forward in a pamphlet published by
the American Missionary Association, and
containing facts and figures which fully
bear out the views therein expressed and
which are confirmed by careful observers
both at the North and South. The
writers show that a fearful amount of
ignorance exists in the Southern States,
which is largely responsible for the un
healthy condition of affairs there. It is
this ignorance that has enabled unscru
pulous men to work upon the prejudices
of the lower classes, and thus sow the
seeds of an antagonism which, if per
petuated, is sure to imperil our prosperity
as a nation. It is impossible to preserve
Republican institutions with a large pro
portion of our population growing up in
illiteracy, and especially under circum
stances which stimulate hostility between
races.
To remove this ignorance and to dispel
these prejudices is the need of the hour,
and it can be most effectually met by the
people of the North, for those of the
South are too poor to bear the cost. It
appears by the pamphlet to which we
have referred, that of persons over ten
years of age there are twenty-five and
five-tenths per cent, who cannot read in
the South against three and eight-tenths
per cent, in the Eastern and Middle, and
three and four-tenths in the Western
States. For the voting population there
is a still more startling exhibition of illit
eracy in the South, where thirty-nine per
cent, of this class, black and white, can
not read, against eight per cent, in the
two other sections. Statistics upon the
expenditure for education tell the same
story ; the Southern States, with a popu
lation larger than either of the other sec
tions, expend only about one-third the
amount for public schools. These con
clusions are emphasized by comparison
between States in the Union, which show
that the lowest expenditure per capita in
any Northern State is higher than the
highest in the South, while the lowest in
the South is only the fraction of a dollar.
These are the evils which we of the
North are called upon to remedy if we
would preserve the Union in its integ
rity. We have seen the makeshifts of
interference by the Federal Government
powerless to diminish the evils which
can only be overcome by a liberal system
of education. The black race can never
become fitted to exercise the responsi
bilities of citizens until they have suit
able religious and secular instruction. As
long as they are without it they will
inevitably fall under the control of
demagogues, and the whites will be
placed in a position of antagonism
to them. The lower classes among
both races need to be lifted up
to an appreciation of the advantages of
culture, in order 1o understand and ex
ercise their mutual rights and obligations.
The willingness of the negroes to receive
instruction is a hopeful sign, and unless
the opportunities now offered for the
diffusion of knowledge in the South are
availed of, there must be a dangerous
retrogression in its condition, and in the
prosperity of the country. We trust,
therefore, that the plea of the American
Missionary Association, emphasized as it
is by such men as the Rev. Dr. Woolsey,
Frederick Douglass, the Rev. Washington
Gladden, Governor Chamberlain, and the
Hon. J. R. Hawley will meet with an
earnest response throughout the North.
Mr. Gladstone’s free and easy remarks
about the religious convictions of Albert
the Good have had an unpleasant effect.
The London Examiner, following suit,
has stated that “he was a mere common
place plodding person,” and the result
was a scene in Buckingham palace, in
which the Queen played Niobe. The fact
is Albert was a respectable, moral man
in the strictest sense of the two terms,
and, the unnecessary sneers of the
Examiner to the contrary notwithstand
ing, was immeasurably better than any
Guelph that ever squatted in England.—
St. Louis Republican.

ENGLAND AND RUSSIA.
London, July 7.—In the House of
Commons Captain Baillie Cochrane called
attention to the progress of Russia in
Central Asia, which was such as to
furnish her with every facility for attack
ing India. He' warned the government
against indifference to the danger pointed
out. Russia’s breaches of promise in the
past would be repeated. He deprecated
England’s entering into entangling en
gagements with Russia, and urged the
strengthening of the English influence in
Afghanistan, for which purpose the visit
of the Prince of Wales to India offered a
favorable opportunity. He closed by
calling for the production of papers rela
tive to the occupation of Khiva.
Mr. Handbury, member for Tam worth,
seconded the motion.
Hon. Mr. Bourke, Under Secretary for
the Foreign Department, replied that all
papers in regard to Khiva had been laid
before the House. Other communica
tions on the whole question of Central
Asia had been exchanged, and be was
sure when they were produced the House
and the country would approve the course
of the government and recognize the
spirit of friendliness which characterized
the entire correspondence. Nobody can
deny that Russia had broken her engage
ments with regard to Khiva. He would
not discuss this subject. For obvious
reasons, both Russia and Great Britain
ought to recognize the interest they have
in maintaining a respectable distance
between their respective frontiers in Asia.
The English Government was fully
aware of tbe danger attending the advance
of the frontier of either power. The
government did not think an arrange
ment setting off and defining certain ter
ritory between them as neutral ground
was feasible. It would be sure to
lead to mutual misunderstanding, and
therefore the government did not intend
to enter into any formal agreement on
such a basis. England wished to show
that she was not an aggressive power,
and had no desire to extend her Indian
frontiers. During the maintenance of
the present status, the government held
itself perfectly free to enter into any al
liances, political or commercial, with na
tions on her frontiers which events
might point to as necessary. The culti
vation of friendship with Afghanistan
was no new policy on the part of Great
Britain.
THE AMERICAN TEAM.
Belfast, July 7.—The American team
have arrived here. Their reception even
surpassed that which they received when
they entered Dublin. Mayor Lindsey and
the corporation met them at the station,
and escorted them to carriages. A pro
cession was formed, and the guests made
a triumphal entry into the city. They
passed through the streets festooned with
banners, and packed on each side by
crowds, apparently comprising the en
tire population. The cheering was un
ceasing from the moment they left the
station until they reached the Imperial
Hotel, where speeches were made by
Col. Gildersleeve and Major Leech, and
tremendous enthusiasm was manifested.
On the road, welcoming crowds were col
lected at every station between Dublin
and Belfast, and many church spires were
flagged. At Portadown the railway com
pany provided a special train for the vis
itors for the remainder of the journey to
Belfast.
the carlists.
Madrid, July 7.—Gen. Dorregaray,
with fourteen battalions, comprising al
most the entire Carlist force in Valencia
and Aragon, has rapidly passed the
Huesca and Leridary, between the sta
tions of Tordienta and Selgua, and re
treated in the direction of Barbastro. It
is believed that he is going to Urgel, but
as he lacks cavalry to operate in that
district, which is free of mountains and
full of liberals, it will be impossible for
him to remain there. The Carlists trav
ersed ninety kilometres in one day.
Their flight liberates four provinces.
FUNERAL OF AN EMPEROR.
Vienna, July 7.—The funeral of the
Emperor Ferdinand took place yesterday.
The EmperoF and Empress of Austria,
the Czar with the Crown Princes of Ger
many and Italy, the entire Austrian

and the Austrian Cardinals and Bishops,
assisted at the ceremonies, which were of
the most imposing character. The re
mains were deposited in the Church of

those of Maximilian.

A Splendid Woman Smuggler.—A few
days since the New York Custom House
inspectors noticed a lady on one of the
English steamers, who appeared to be
very much overdressed. She was one
solid mass of furbelows and frills, and
over her elegant black silk costume she
wore an India shawl, which completely
enveloped her person. She was stopped
and escorted into the searcher’s room,
where the female in attendance “went
through her,” and was rewarded by find
ing on her person more than $5,000
worth of jewels, laces and gloves. The
gloves were found sewed up in the inside
lining of her bustle, and the lace inside a
large braid of false hair whioh she wore.
Her under garments wer$ all made to
contain various articles, even her corsets
being made to do service in cheating
Uncle Sam.- The guilty woman cried
bitterly. She is a lady well connected,
and was allowed to go free upon pay
ment of the sum total due the govern
ment.

SENSIBLE COLORED MEN.
Washington, July 7.—At the celebra
tion at Hilldale, near Washington, on
Monday, by the colored people, there was
a new Declaration of Independence, Pro
fessor Langston and Frederick Douglass
being in accord concerning the duty of
their race. Their remarks were fre
quently applauded by their many listen
ers. Frederick Douglass declared the in
dependence of the colored race from pre
tended white friends, who, he said, have
injured more than they have helped the
black men.
Professor Langston, in a similar strain,
remarked that he was there to declare his
independence for all who were his fol
lowers. The hour is come, he continued,
when we must throw off this yoke of op
pression, and stand up for our rights as
freemen. The signs of the times demand
that we shall prove our fitness for all
the duties of citizenship. The
hour is come when we must
manage our own institutions. If we have
colored churches, then give us colored
preachers; if we have colored banks, we
must have colored bankers; if we have
colored colleges, we demand that we have
our own officers. We have played the
second fiddle too long. We want—we
must have—a change for the better.
THE NORFOLK DISASTER.
New* York, July 7.—The steamship

the 5th, at 9-45 p. m., when abreast of
Sewell’s Point, we saw a tug-boat a point
and a half on our starboard bow. show
ing both side lights. We gave the usual
signal to pass to the starboard, and kept
steering in the right direction, when, to
our surprise, the tug-boat signified
an intention of crossing our bow. An
order to stop was at once given, and one
blast of the whistle sounded, but the tug
again changed its course, and before our
ship’s way could be checked a collision
ensued. We struck the tug on her star
board bow, and she sank instantly. Our an
chor was at once dropped and three boats
sent to the rescue of the crew. We suc
ceeded in rescuing four men and one
woman, whom we put on board the N.
P. Banks, which came to our assistance,
and proceeded on our way.”
THE CARLIST CAUSE.
London, July 7.—The Times, in a lead
ing editortal article summarizing the
military and political situation in Spain,
gives a gloomy view of the Alfonsists
cause. It says:
“The recent minor successes of Jovel-
lar have been outweighed by reverses
elsewhere. Tne Carlists seem about to
begin a forward march. All the bright
hopes that Alfonso brought Spain have
vanished. His best Generals are less
active than heretofore. They have met
defeat instead of victory. The King
has not been successful in Madrid.
He has failed to satisfy the
church, and has enraged the Liberals,
hence the ministry 6eems ready to try the
effect of as much religious toleration as
will permit Protestants to worship in the
back streets; but such concessions will
disgust the clerical element, and not sat
isfy Alfonso’s political supporters. Neith
er has the King made peace between war
ring factions. The press is muzzled to
prevent it from being disloyal, and there
are no funds to pay the army and navy.”
THE WASHINGTON WEATHER PROPHET.
Washington, July 7.—Probabilities:
During Thursday, in the South Atlantic
and Gulf States, slight changes in barom
eter and temperature, winds mostly from
southeast to northeast, partly cloudy
weather, and occasional rain areas are
probable.
For the Tennessee valley and lower
lake region, higher barometer, northeast
to southeast winds, generally clear and
slightly cooler weather.
For the Middle and Eastern States,
rising barometer, northerly or easterly
winds, clear or partly cloudy, and slightly
cooler weather, with possibly rain areas
on the coast.
The Mississippi river will continue
slowly rising between St. Louis and
Vicksburg.
YELLOW FEVER.
Washington, D. C., July 7.—Promi
nent medical and other officers of the
navy, who have at various times been in
localities afflicted with yellow fever, and
paid some attention to its cause and
treatment, express the opinion that it
would be wise, as a timely precaution,
for all Southern cities on the Atlantic
coast to make and enforce stringent
sanitary rules, as the early appearance of
the fever at Key West, Fla., is an indica
tion that it may extend along the coast
this summer.
the loader-price trial.
New York. July 7.—In the Loader-
Price trial Beecher was on the stand.
He was handed the affidavits of Loader
and Price and asked whether any state
ments in the affidavits referring to himself
and Mrs. Tilton were true. He answered
that there is nothing that is true thus
alleged—not a word of truth in the alle
gations respecting him in the affidavits.
The prisoners were held for the grand
jury. Price plead guilty and Loader not
guilty.
STORM IN NEW ENGLAND.
Boston, July 7.—Reports of damages
by the storm last evening are numerous.

lock was a chronometer, to open at nine
o’clock, and the robbers abandoned the
safe.

CARL SCHURZ IN BERLIN.
Tbe Wonderful Revolution Wrought by a
Few Years of Time.
[Berlin Correspondence of the New York Tri
bune.]
You will have already received full par
ticulars of the dinner given to Senator
Schurz by the American residents in
Berlin. This gathering, which is all the
talk of the day, affords a remarkable il
lustration of the great changes which
may be brought about by the whirligig
of time in the space of a human life. It
certainly required an effort of the ima
gination to picture to one’s self Carl
Schurz, the proscribed conspirator and
fugitive of 1849, hob-nobbing in Berlin,
with a Prussian ex-Minister of Justice,
in 1875! It is about as easy to conceive
the lion lying down with the lamb, oil
and water mingling in sweet communion,
and acid an alkali gamboling in the same
bath without the slightest ebullition of
feeling, or any other queer juxtaposi
tion of warring elements. One feels
a strong temptation to make an anti
thesis more striking still by following
the example of those journalists who
in their reports of the proceedings
have confounded Augustus von Bemuth,
present at the dinner, with his cousin,
Otto von Bernuth, ex-President of police,
who was not there. The former has
always preferred liberal principles, where
as the latter is a staunch supporter of the
Junker or Feudal party, which could
never think of recognizing a Carl Schurz
in any circumstances whatever. Still, it
is sufficiently suggestive and final, Carl
Schurz occupying the first place of honor
at a public dinner in Berlin, while the
second place was given to a functionary
with whom he. might have been at one
time brought into a very different sort of
contact. Many of the Germans present
were men who had had their own politi
cal ups and downs, and are, perhaps, as
much astonished as any one at the strange
freaks of fortune, who has now set them
upon an altar after having so often rolled
them in the dust.
Berlin herself has undergone a thor
ough transformation, material no less
than mortal, since the days when Kinkle
and Schurz were studying and conspiring
by turns at Bonn, and when Count Von
Brandenburg or other men of his type
ruled in Berlin. Your eminent Sanskrit
scholar, Prof. Whitney, of Yale College,
who made a very neat speech at the
Schurz dinner, compared her rapid
progress since his former visits to the
growth of Jonah’s gourd, which came up
over Jonah, so that he sat under the
shadow and was exceedingly glad. For
tunately, most of the Germans present
did not understand this, or they might
perhaps have remembered that Jonah’s
gourd was withered in the night follow
ing its portentous growth—a somewhat
ominous reflection for such of us as are
compelled to pitch our tents in this ci£y
of execrable cookery—for in this respect
Berlin resists all improvement—and of
scents which are not always that of the
sweet South stealing over a bed of violets!
As I have already stated, the Germans
who took part in yesterdoy’s festivity
were all men belonging to some shade of
the Liberal party. The Kreuz Zeitnng,
however, had a “chiel takin’ notes on the
occasion, and this gentleman, whose im
agination had probably been wrought up
to a high pitch by the combined efforts of
eloquence and claret, allowed his pen to
run away with him, and to perpetrate
the outrageous statement that “men of
all parties gathered round the festive
board.” The sentinel on duty appears
to have been napping, and the report
was allowed to get into the paper just as
it had been written. The next n.orning
the “ Direction ” saw what had been done,
and was perfectly horrified, and so, to
mend matters, a paragraph appeared in
the following number, to the effect that
by some mishap the report had been suf
fered to slip through uncorrected, that
accidents would happen in the best regu
lated families, and so forth.
A Habeas Corpus Hearse.
A divorce is sometimes followed by a
domestic scene more gloomy and painful
than a funeral. The other morning early
a pretty woman, robed in deep black, en
tered a New Orleans court room, leading
a little girl who clung to her with every
demonstration of affection. The child
seemed to feel instinctively that some
thing terrible was going to happen, and
looked around with a frightened stare
upon the yet-vacant seats. The woman
fitfully sobbing sat with her face buried
in the little curly head at her side and the
falling folds of crape enveloped
the two. Presently the court room
filled up. The first business was the
reading of a petition setting forth that
a couple had been divorced and that the
mother was not a proper custodian of her
child. Since the separation, by mutual
consent, the child, a little girl, had been
under the care of her grandmother, but a
short time ago the mother had taken
the girl from Mobile to New Orleans.
Motherly instinct had violated the terms
of “mutual consent,” and seized its off
spring, just for a few happy hours. The
mother knew it could not last, and dressed
herself for a funeral. A writ of habeas
corpus was the hearse, to bear her darling
away to the grave of hope. The Judge
decreed that the father was the proper
custodian of the girl. After judgment
had been pronounced, that woman in
black gathered up the little girl in her
arms and hurried toward the door. At
the exit the father stopped her, and said
that the court had decided in his favor.
She handed the child to him. It was like
tearing out her own heart strings. Chok
ing with emotion, the father took the
child quickly from the mother, and
started rapidly away, the little one look
ing over his shoulder, holding out her
little hands and crying “ Mamma !” So
the little girl passed away from her
mother—passed from her sight and arms
and love forever—and there was a funeral
in the lonely woman’s heart.
Killed by a Brother.—St. Lends, July
2.—Coroner Dudley held an inquest on
the body of James Devlin, who was shot
and killed by his brother, Henry Devlin,
in this city, last night. It seems that
James has led a dissipated life, and was
very quarrelsome in liquor. Both James
and Henry were living with their step
father, a Mr. Cook, at the time of the
affray, which resulted fatally. A few days
ago James was committed to jail upon a
charge of assault and battery, and he
then promised Mr. Cook and his brother
that if they would secure his release he
would leave the city. They furnished
the bond, and he was liberated, but in
stead of leaving the city he got drunk,
and went out home to demand money.
He and Mr. Cook were in conversation
when he told Mr. Cook that if he didn't get
some money somebody would be killed;
A few moments 'after a person came run
ning to Henry Devlin, and told him that
his brother was chasing Mr. Cook and
trying to kill him. Henry went out and
found such to be the case, and the result
was, to prevent James from killing some
one else, Henry shot and fatally wounded
him. Henry then cams into the city and
delivered himself to Marshal Watson.
Henry will stand trial at the next term of
court.
Bite of the Rattlesnake. —A post office
agent traveling in Texas tells of the suc
cessful use of the gall of a rattlesnake as
an antidote for the bite of that reptile.
In the case spoken of relief was almost
instantaneous to the patient, who was
writhing in paroxysms of great pain,
rapidly swelling and becoming purple.
A friend of the writer, who spent several
years in California and New Mexico, saw
the same remedy successfully used
among the Indians in the latter country.
In one instance, an Indian’s dog near the
caipp was bitten in the nose by a large
rattlesnake. The Indians immediately
opened the reptile and administered the
gall. The cure was rapid and effectual.—

The Poor Fijians.
[From the Norfolk Viiginian.]
The British Government about thrt
years ago took possession of the Feegt
Islands—or as these are now general!,
spelt Fijis. The object was to found
colony, in which could be grown th
finest tropical productions and give to th
Empire another spot in the broad Pacifi
on which to plant the meteor flag. C-
course, the benevolent classesof Englam
were entirely carried away by the pro?
pect of converting a hundred tbousan
heathens on the other side of the worir
at the same time overlooking the man.
millions of heathens surrounding them a
home. Moreover, the Fijians were can
nibals, and so the good folks of London
Manchester, Nottingham, etc., gloried ii
the thought of preventing the savage
from eating any more missionaries, whil«
they saw unmoved hundreds of thousand*
of degraded English men and women
murdering themselves every year by
drinking poisoned liquors. The secret of
this craze was that the Pacific heathen
were of a dusky hue, while the English
heathen were only white people—for the
true fanatic will spend his money to ben
efit the dark-skinned “man and brother,”
while he willingly consigns his own white
bretbem to the fires of Tophet.
Unfortunately for these very benevo
lent philanthropists, we fear that there
are now but few Fijians to be saved either
from man-eating or from the clutches of
the fiend. Not many months ago the
whites settling there introduced the
measles, which being a disease to which
the forefathers of the islanders had not
been subjected, as our forefathers had
been for many ages, the savages were not
annealed to the malady as we have been,
and as it attacked the present generation
for the first time, the poor heathens have
been dying like sheep with the rot. Sev
eral weeks ago there had been fifty thous
and deaths, and by the last accounts the
frightful pestilence was still as violent as
ever. At the rate at which the people
are slain by this disease, all the islands
will be depopulated in a few months.
So much for the blessings of becoming
acquainted with Europeans. New Zea
land has now about one-third as many
inhabitants as she had a hundred years
ago; the Sandwich Islands one-sixth; but
of the poor Fijians we fear that a year
from this time there will not be one left
to smack his lips over the remembrance
of former feasts on roasted missionary.
A Chip from a Star.
[Illinois State Register.]
A few days ago, as a lady, who resides
in the south part of the city, was stand
ing at the gate in front of her residence,
she was startled by a rushing sound in
one of the shade trees, and instantly
afterward heard some heavy object drop
with a loud thump on the plank walk.
On picking up the “thing,” it was lound
to be about two inches long and three-
quarters of an inch thick, and apparently
composed of exceedingly dense iron, with
yellow blotches that resembled sulphur,
and covered with a black substance re
sembling coal tar. When picked up it
was found to be uncomfortably warm for
the hand, and all the circumstances com
bined lead irresistibly to tbe conclusion
that this little body is a fragment of a
larger one, which was a meteorite or
aerolite. The sides of the fragment have
the appearance of having been split off
from another body, and present longitu
dinal stria in the direction of the frac
ture. The ends seem to have
been squarely broken off, some
what % like the fracture made by
the breaking of the mineral known
as the galena. This little piece
fell at about three o’clock in the
afternoon, when the sun was shining in a
clear sky, and no doubt burst in the ex
treme upper regions of the atmosphere,
in the full blaze of sunlight, and so
escaped observation. If this had hap
pened during the darkness and stillness
of the night, the light and the noise
would no doubt have attracted attention.
A moment’s inspection of this fragment
is sufficient to show that it closely re
sembles, in every respect, the aerolites
that are known to have fallen in many
parts of the world, and that are treasured
as great curiosities in many museums :
the more so as the substance of which it
is composed resembles, in its chemical
combinations, no mineral of a terrestrial
origin. Wherever these bodies or frag
ments are found they may be instantly
recognized by this peculiarity, their sub
stance being known as meteoric iron. A
body of this kind was found in South
America that is estimated to weigh 30,000
pounds; another, in the Yale College
cabinet, which was found in the Red
River country, weighs 1,635 pounds.
Murdered for a Conjurer.—A most
cold-blooded and wicked murder was
committed near Canton, in Van Zandt
county, a few days ago, by two negroes,
Boyd and Sims. The victim, a colored
man by the name of Cooper, was an in
dustrious, intelligent and sober man,
who stood well with the people and had
many friends. Cooper, Sims and Boyd
went out coon hunting together; the
two latter returned alone, and the con
tinued absence of Cooper created some
suspicion, whereon a search was made
and his body discovered in a dry well
some mile and a half from the scene of
the murder. The whole community,
whites and negroes, united in the search
for the murderers. Sims and Boyd were
arrested and confessed the crime. It
seems that the two murderers killed him
with an axe, concealed his body in the
brush, and went at night and stole the
victim’s mule, tied his body upon it and
conveyed it to the well and threw it in.
The only reason that they could give for
the murder was that Cooper was a con
jurer, and had threatened to conjure
them. Very few realize the hold that
these superstitions have on the minds of
the negroes and the half-civilized In
dians. Possibly Cooper being a smart
negro, was playing upon their fears, and
thus caused his own death.—Dallas (Tex
as) Commercial, 28th.
The Origin of “Bull,” “Bear” and
“Lame Duck.”— A correspondent has
been investigating into the antiquity and
origin of the slang terms “bull,” “bear”
and “lame duck,” which are in such
common use in the menagerie of the
Stock Exchange, and reports the result
of his investigation as follows: “The
earliest mention of the second of these
terms with which I am acquainted is in a
satire published by T. Bowles, of St.
Paul’s Churchyard, London, and contem
porary with the South Sea Bubble, styled
the ‘Bubbler’s Medley;’ it is No. 1,610 in
the ‘Catalogue of Satirical Prints’ in the
British Museum. A print in the same
collection, dated 1734, entitled ‘The
Stocks,’ etc., No. 2,016, comprises a verse
which so neatly includes two of the
terms, and suggests the third, that I may
be forgiven for quoting it:
“ ‘But if Boll and Bear don’t tally.
Ont they waddle from the All$v,
And reduc’d to humb/e otate. air.
Corse Stock jobbing and thtlr fate, sir.
DcCuIe, doodle, doo,’ etc.
“In the print No. 2,916 the ‘lame
ducks’ are ‘waddling’ away from the Stock
Exchange.”
An act of outrageous and hideous van
dalism was recently perpetrated upon the
remains of *Gen. Howell Hinds, buried
in Greenville, Mississippi. The vault
which contained his coffin was broken
into, his body taken out and the right
hand cut off. For this strange and un
natural crime no other motive oan be
found save the superstitious idea that a
certain bone in the right hand of a dead
man is a powerful “charm” for conjur
ing. No ring or other valuable was upon
the body when buried, and therefore no
mercenary motive can be assigned for
this desecration of the grave—nothing
could have inspired the deed but the hor
rible infatuation of the conjurer.
Extraordinary Cropping.—S. B. Blair,
of Pittsylvania county, Va., with the aid
of a lad to whom he paid $70 per year
wages, raised a crop of tobacco, which
netted him over $1,500. Of this the
product of three acres returned him
$1,308 and a few cents dear of all ex
pense of handling, selling, etc. This was
in addition to the crops of com, wheat,
by the same force.
