“ I will tell yon,” said Mr. P , “ of an in-
cident that occurred here many years ago It
possesses mo now, as I think of it, all the -vivid
interest it had then. It was among the first-class
cases intrusted to Mr. I and myself, and we
devoted to it an unwearying patience and assi
duity that fitted us for their exercise many a
time afterwards. It was in mid-winter that the
circumstance to which I allude occurred. The
theatrical season was at its height. The St.
Charles was nightly thronged with the beauty
and fashion of the city. A new star had ap
peared on its boards, oxciting an interest preval
lent and absorbing. Her beanty, grace and ac
complishments were the topic of every club
room—the one subject that engaged the atten
tion of all the youth in the city. Her name was
Adelc Iuriondin. Very young—scarcely twenty
—and very beautiful was this young girl, around
whom a web of mystery was woven that seemed
to defy human ingenuity to unravel.
I say she was beautiful, hut that word does
not convey an adequate idea of her exceeding
grace of mind and person. Petite in form, the
Sender figure was exqnigito in symmetry. A
wealth of bright golden hair shaded a face rosy
with health and brilliant with genius. The clear
hazel eyes flashed with intelligence, and the
delicate curve of the exquisiUy chiseled lips
expressed hatred or scorn, or intensified emo
tion.
Night after night the theatre was filled with
her admires. Passion in every phase—the very
well-springs and impulses of our nature—seem
ed to find m her an interpreter that never erred.
Her analysis of character was perfect; it was
true to nature, and therefore perfect.
The nightof which I speak had witnessed her
greatest triumph. She seemed inspired, and
the feelings and emotions of her audience ap
peared as absolutely under her control as if she
wielded the wand of an enchantress. The cur
tain fell on the last act of the tragedy and the
audience dispersed. Some mesmeric power held
me to the spot and I lingered around tho en
trance to the theatre.
An hour must have passed by arid the last of
the company crept out of the narrow aisle lead
ing to the stage, and sought their homes. Still
the actress lingered; her carriage at the door—
the driver impatient Suddenly from behind
the scenes—echoing along that narrow aisle—
came a scream so piercing that it cut to the
heart like a dagger. It chilled my blood. I
stood rooted to the spot; anguish, horror, grief,
were in its tones.
In a moment moro I dashed open the door
and mshed into the theatre. Close at my back
came Mr. I , the driver, and the porter of the
establishment. The light in the green room
was still burning. The large mirror that hung
from the wall reflected from the opposite sofa
the tinsel and mock jewelry of a queen. I no
ticed this as I dashed open the narrow door that
led to the dressing room assigned the actress.
It was empty. I called her by name. I shout
ed until the walls, of the vast building echoed
back my voice. We searched everywhere, un
derneath and above the stage, even among the
rolled putains in the loft, and the narrow aper
tures between the scenes—in vain. The actross
had disappeared. The screams that had so
startled ns were not repeated. There was no
avenue of escape, still she was gone.
Mr. I visited her apartments at the hotel.
She was not there. The gas was relit in the
theatre and our search resumed. She was not
to be found. Her friends were visited; the
most transient acquaintance colled on, with a
like result.
Each hour, instead of revealing the mystery,
only deepened it. In tho light of the morning
we continued the search. A single object was
discovered, which conld possibly afford a due
to the missing girl. On the floor of the dress
ing room was a diamond ear-ring. It looked as
if it had been tom from its place. It was not
(inch an one as was worn by the actress. It estab
lished beyond question the presence of another
poison in her room, and that person a female.
This was all. The mysterious interview and its
termination were shrondod in a veil of darkness
onr ingenuity could not penetrate. If the earth
had opened and swallowed her, her disappear
ance conld not have been moro utterly unac
countable.
What was to be dono ? We knew she was a
native of FVance, brought thence in childhood.
Her relatives had died; her friends knew noth
ing. save that she was an orphan. Genius had
aided her rise; industry had secured her fame.
The architect of her own fortunes, she had
cliined alone tho steep whose ascent is devious
and hard to snrmount.
Days went by. Friends interested themselves
in the search, and large rewards were offered
for any intelligence of the missing girL All was
ineffectual. Not even a trace of her could be
fonnd. Still I had not given up; at my heart I
felt that we would yet succeed m findingher.
One day I stood leaning negligently on the
connterof a fashionable jeweler. I loved to
gaze upon the brilliant gems that strewed the
case, and filled it with a weird, flashing light.
My attention absorbed in viewing them, I did
not notice the entrance of a lady—her foreign
accent in addressing tho jeweler caused mo to
turn around. She held an ear-ring in her hand,
and was inquiring the cost of one if made to
match it. Tho first glance I had of it made tho
blood leap like fire in my Teins. It was tho
coimteipart of the one found in the theatre.
You may imagine I did not lose sight of that
woman. I knew I had struck on the right clue.
I traced her home. Tho panther never stole
on his victim more silently than I in the footsteps
of tho dark-browed stranger.
I scarcely knew how I got back to the office.
I seemed to have triumphed over spaco and
time. More like a maniac than a detective, I
rushed up to Mr. I and imparted my intel
ligence. He was not less excited than L AVe
both felt an interest in the beautiful girl as
strong as if she had been a sister. But we knew
that our steps must be wary, and our movements
secret as tho grave. We had no common crimi
nal to deal with. If not the arch fiend himself,
we knew she was almost as cunning. The mys
terious abduction of tho actress disclosed a
quickness and sagacity at once ingenius and
profound. The same subtle spirit we did not
donbt we should have to encounter again. - It
was not, therefore, with a feeling of assured
-success that we prepared to enter the residence
to which I had traced the foreign lady.
It was not as officers of the law usually go,
that we went on that occasion. We employed
rather the subtle cunning and perfect skill of a
man brought up to the business. For once his
nefarious art helped him to a noble deed. A
life of crime was whitened by a single virtue.
Before the skill of this man the door sprang
back upon its hinges, and we stood within the
portals where the issues of this strange mys
tery were to be decided. Silently we ascended
the stairs. A gas flame, burning from a globe,
suspended from the ceiling, flung a mellow
light along the stately corridor. At the further
end of the hall a door opened into a large
apartment. We moved toward this, and as we
approached it sounds of weeping struck on onr
ears, and then we heard a voice of supplication.
Sorrowful and sad the strange, sweet voice
floated out on the air. It was like the wail of a
broken heart, that cry of one in distress.
“Oh, God! is there no help; no help! ’’
It thrilled to my heart. Even in that pitiful
cadence I knew those well-remembered tones.
Burdened with anguish, I knew them well.
In another instant the door flew open before
our impetuous weight, and there, in the gloom
of a luxurious room, her young limbs fettered,
and a angle garment shrouding the wasted
form, was the young actress. We were not a
minute too soon, for the next instant, funous as
a demon, the dark-browed woman entered the
room.
It took but a moment to secure her, and then

Practical Thought* for the South.
tram the Augutla Conetitutionaliet.1
Augusta, Ga., March 31st, 1869.
To the Planters of Georgia :
It is a well established maxim of political
economy that any country, ox section of conn-
ry, to make itself the most prosperous, must
independent. It is alio a well es
tablished fact that the prosperity of a country
depends upon the prosperity of the producers.
Upon the planters of the South, then, depends
the prosperity of this whole country, and it is a
question of the greatest moment, both to pro
ducers and consumers, what course shall make
the planters most independent, and bring the
greatest prosperity upon the country. It is not
necessary to allude to past times, or to the po
litical situation to-day. _ We must accept the
situation as we find it, and if it is not what
we desire, is it not easier to change it by com
pelling attention to our wants and needs by
making ourselves able to depend upon our own
resources ? If we pay more attention to onr fi
nancial prosperity, shall we not sooner be in a
position to demand all onr political rights, and
demand them with success ? for financial power
is qniokly felt. a . a W W
Anything, therefore, that will make the plant
ers prosperous will moke the whole country pros
perous, and will be the earliest and quickest
solution of your political troubles.
The question then arises, under the changed
labor system, will not a great change in the
method of carrying on plantations be most ad
vantageous ? Can the planters of Georgia afford
to devote their entire attention to cotton, to the
exclusion of com, wheat, rye, oats and such
other products as they must themselves con
sume ? What advantage ha ve they if the whole
amount they receive from their cotton crops
must be expended for labor and supplies, with
perhaps a small balance to invest in foreign or
artificial manures, on which to make tho next
orop ?, -
The system of raising all that crop which
brings in the most money has been tried over
and over again in the North, and every time has
g raved a failure. For the past few years hops
ave brought and extravagant price. From 40
to 75. cents per pound has been realized to
the hop grower, and when it is remembered
that a good crop yields about 1000 pounds per
acre, it need not be wondered at that those sec
tions in which the hop thrives shonld pay their
attention to hops. Thousands of additional
acres have been set within the last three years,
and farmers have neglected to raise corn, oats
and wheat enough for their own wants, depend
ing upon their sales of hops to supply them.
With such a great breadth of hop gardens came
the reaction in the market.
To-day many of the hop growers have two
years crop on hand, and the quotations of the
market are only two to seven cents per pound.
The money received for the crops of previous
years came easily; it went quickly. Such pros
perity induced extravagant habits and depend
ing npon the next crop to meet their future
wants they freely expended, and to-day, with
plenty of hops on band, with no market, they
suffer the penalty of their foolishness.
As it has been with hops, so with various oth
er craps, until it is found that it is poor policy
to devote all attention to one crop. As a rota
tion of crops is found to be necessary for the
proper tilling of their land, bo is a division of
their.attention.to the various crops as necessary
to their financial wincesa. r nj'- ■-
Will the planters of the South learn by tho
experience of Northern farmers, and, I donbt
not,-by their own experience in former years?
If thoy will depend upon themselves to raise
first those supplies which they know they re
quire, and for which their land is well adapted,
devoting all their farther energiek to the great
staple of the South, they will soon be indepen
dent and their prosperity secured, although the
golden stream may not be so quick and Solent
as it might be if they conld be assured that higli
prices would always rale for cotton, and they
devote all their attention to that.
Again, does not the system of tillage pursued
by a majority of tho planters of the South re
quire a change ? Can they afford, with labor
they have to pay for, to raise bnt one bole of
cotton, or ten or eleven bushels of com to the
acre, when they see so many examples amongst
them where those craps have been trebled?
Con they afford to render sterile three or four
inches of the top of the soil, and then forsake
the land and clear up new, when a heavy team
and a subsoil plow would tom up an almost ex-
h.rustless fertility? Can they afford to buy ar
tificial or foreign manures, and pay so little at
tention to the means of fertilization close at
home? Can they afford to pay from$10 to$80
per ton for phosphates and guanos and leave
that bed of muck so near their broad acres un
disturbed ? Eighty dollars expended in draw
ing and composting muck, I certainly believo
will prodneo twice the effect that eighty dollars’
worth of foreign manures will; bnt true policy
and scientific tillage demands that both these
sources of fertility should bo used together.
I merely throw out these hints that yon may
think upon them, and perchance benefit your
selves by seasonable action. If you adopt a ro
tation of crops and a system of saving and
making the most of home fertilizers, as well as
a more thorough and deeper tillage of the soil,
some time is required to put them in practice,
and you may be prepared another season to
make the experiment.
I see no reason why this country, which is
blessed with a native soil as fertile as any in the
country, and a most jpleasant, delightful climate,
may not become, as it were, the garden of the
world. That it may be thus blessed is the sin
cere wish of your friend,
A Nobthebner.
An Ancient Battle.
Free from tho ■ smoke of a modem engage
ment, a Hellenic battle must have been a gallant
sight. In purple tunics and burnished armor,
the men stood ten, fifteen and twenty deep, be
neath a glittering forest of spear beds. Those
who were well to do had no lack of gold about
their greaves and breast-plates, and were dan
dified in plumes and sword-belts; while even
the poorest citizens wore a hermit fashioned by
the exqisite taste of a Greek artificer. It must
have been a trial of the nerves of the bravest
to stand biting his moustache, humming a bar
of the psean which he was to sing within the
next quarter of an hour; wondering whether
his widow would marry again; hoping that the
eohler on his right might not turn tail, or the
teacher of gymnastics on his left shove him out
of the line; dimly conscious meanwhile that
his colonel was exhorting him in a senes of
well-tuned periods to bethink himself of the
tomb which covered those who diedinTher-
mopyke, and the trophy which stood on the
beach at Artemesmm. And then the signal-
trumpet sounded, and the music struck up, ana
the whole army moved forward, steadily at
first, but breaking into a ran, when only a few
hundred yards separated the approaching lines.
And as the distance between them grew shor
ter, and the tramp of the enemy mingled with
their own, the front rank men had just time to
try and imagine that the countenance of the peo-
pta opposite looked light flinching, and that the
notes ofitheir war chant had begun to falter,
and the next second there would be a crash of
pikes, and a grating of bucklers, and a clutch
ing of beards, and those who would fain be
home again, were poshed on by the mass De
hind, excited at hearing others fighting, and
with no steel at his own throat; and, after five
minutes of thrusting and shooting, and fierce
straining of foot, and knee and shoulder, the
less determined or the worst disciplined of the
two hosts would learn, by more cruel experi
ence what the old learn : that life, as well as
honor, is for those who retain their self-respect
and their shields.

Beautiful Extract.
- 5 Bn- ^' an ' Voorhees recently left his seat
in Congress to stump his district in Indiana, on
the fifteenth amendment. He made a capital
speech in Terre Haute, last week, from which
we extract the following:
A government conld not be built up of such
I raMemlg. The race has had every opportunity
loradvancement, but had never risen above
. The y had fruitful land, a land
01 an ^ Eighty rivers, where the
wealth of nature was boundless, but it had been
all to no purpose. The Saxons, the Anglos and
the ancient Britons were once savages, but when
the day dawned for them they advanced upon
such a career of greatness as adorns and illu
minates all history. Tho negro hm» h^d the
same advantages, but the result has been entire
ty different. The people of Indian* want no
such partner to assist them in their government.
The career of the African in past is an illus
tration of what his future experience most be.
The speaker said he felt no bitterness toward
the negro, who was a being brought into corro
ding contact with the white race, which was his
superior, and the inferior race must gradually
diminish, and finally become extinct. It is not
prejudice, but wisdom, to preserve the white
race in its purity.
I would keep the powers of this government
in the hands of those men to whom our fathers
gave it. How great has been our career under
their wise precepts. When I look back I feel
as Adam and Eve must have felt when driven
forth from Paradise; they looked back and
through the half open gates caught a glimpse of
the beautiful flowers, the shady groves, the
sweet, fruits and all the luxuries they had lost
forever. So we to-day stand amid the distrac
tion of the elements, and see around us the ef
fects of the course of civil war, of miring races,
of jarring jurisdiction and everything in con
fusion, as when the curse came upon the world,
and the clouds swept low aiding the tree tops;
tho birds flew shrieking through the air, and the
beasts fled affrighted across tho plain. To
night, in the midst of thia confusion and dis
turbance of political principles, with the clouds
lowering over onr heads charged with thunder,
flashing with the lightnings, and ready to burst
with fury npon us, as I look back into the beau
tiful past, where onr fathers’ precepts adorn the
gallery of our glory, it seems, though wo had
been driven from Paradise, and I long to go Rn-h-
and drink one more deep draught from the
fountains of their wisdom. It is enough for me
to point out what has been achieved by their
great doctrines. It inclines me to tom away
from theso modern innovators who call them
selves reformers, and contemplate the dignity
and glory of these ancient men.
As for myself, I shall never bow down to fhi«
thing. It would, as I have just said, keep the
powers of this Government where onr fathers
placed them as the best for your safety, for the
safety of your children, and also for the safety
of the black man. These men who propose ne
gro equality are the worst enemy of the colored
race. As for myself, I would throw around tho
negro, by onr own wise legislation, the safe
guards of the law. I would not put him in the
schools with your children, nor npon the jury
bench, nor into the Legislature. I would to
God that I conld be heard all over my district,
and all over tho State, npon this question. I
would to God that there was to be a general
canvass, and then that the people might bo al
lowed to decide this issue at the ballot-box.
Then wo shonld know whether they wish the ne-
jro in the public shook, in the Legislature, and
>eside them in the jury box; for that is what
negro equality means, and nothing else.
Do not make mistakes in this matter. You
are a great powerful nation, the greatest that
tho world has seen. Yon have forty millions of
people, and you are the strongest nation the
sun ever shone upon. The men of South
America are broader and aeoper than ours.
Their groves are spicy and their fields groan
with the riches of the earth, yet thoy have no
rank among the nations. They made the same
mistake which the Bepnblicans are now making,
and incorporated an inferior race into the body
]»litic. It led at lost to an admixture, and
l inally to equality, and .{hep* groat countries are
inhabited by mongrels, and yet they are coun
trymen, of Columbus and tho descendants of the
followers of the great Cortez.
Important to Distiller* and Dealer*!
In Liquors.
from the Columhve Srnn.1
Mr. Enoch Wilett, Tax Collector of Muscogee
county, has received circular instructions from
the Comptroller General's office, dated April
1st, from which wo make the following extracts
for the information of liquor dealers and distil
lers :
“ Your attention is called to tho following pro
visions of the Tax act approved 18th March,
1869, levying a specific tax, for educational pttr-
>oses, of twenty cents per gallon on every gal-
on of brandy, gin. whisky, or rum, whether for
eign or domestic, sold by any person in this
State, in quantities less than thirty gallons. Un
der these provisions, every person who has sold,
or shall sell, since tho 1st day of January, 186%
and before tho 1st day of Janaary, 1870, any of
the above named liquors in any quantity leas
than thirty gallons to the same purchaser shall
be required to retain the same to you in yonr
respective counties, under oath, as soon as
practicable after tho oloeo of each quarter of
the year. The first return to be mado as of the
1st day of April, the second as of lat July, the
third as of the 1st October, and the fourth as of
the 1st day of January, 1870, and so on through
each sncceding year. Tho Tax Collector of
each county shall administer an oath to each
and every person'making a return, solemnly
swearing him or her to make a just and true re
turn of all liquor sold by such person during the
preceding quarter in quantities less than thirty
gallons, and shall then and there collect a tax of
twentv cents per gallon in lawful money of the
United States. .
Sec. 2. Par. 8. There shall be levieda specific
ta-r for Educational purposes of twenty cents
per gallon on every gallon of brandy, gin, whis
ky or ram, whether foreign or domestic, which
is sold by any person in quantities less than
thirty gallons, m this State, and the amount
sold shall be given in under oath. Quarterly
returns shall be mado on the first days of April,
July and October and January in each year, by
all the persons within the county who shall sell
liqnors in quantities less than thirty gallons, of
the amount sold the preceding quarter. Said
returns shall be made to the tax collector of the
county, who shall demand and collect the tax
due when the return is made. It shall be the
duty of the Tax Collector to require all persons
c-iiing said liquors to make their returns and
pay the tax thereon; and if any person shall
fail or refuse to make his return and pay said
foT he shall be assessed by the Collector a spe
cific tax of one thousand dollars, and the collec
tor shall proceed to collect the same by execu
tion, as in other cases of other taxes doe and
unpaid, to go into effect from and after the first
day of January, 1869.” .
You will call npon eTery person liable to pay
tax under the foregoing provisions, to make Ms

cular, for the first quarter, and in like manner
at tffe expiration of each succeeding quarter.
