CTTEJEEHT OYER IT.
[Prom the Richmond Dispatch]
“There are crimes,” says the New
York Herald, speaking of this thing,
which outrage humanity and exhaust
the patience of the civilized world.”—
Very true, and some of them nearer
home than Jamaica. Oiie hundred
and. eleven men unlawfully captured
in the effort to do an unlawful act are
shot on Spanisli responsibility. Bdii
in the United States it is in proof, up
on evidence that can be produced in
this city of Richmond to-day, that
more than ten times that number of
Confederate men,, captured in the war
where belligerent rights were conced
ed by the Yankee Government, were
pinipg in unwholesome prisons, upon
inusfficient rations,, until they died,
though abundant means to make
-comfortable were at hand. An equal
number of Yankee prisoners were
held by us under protest of inability
to provide for them until they, too,
died. This man who thus outraged
humanity was General Grant. Not
only can it be proven, but it has been
openly charged upon him in Congress
by his then enemy, but now friend and
ally, General Butler. After the war,
a poor, sick, dying Confederate (Cap
tain Wirz), was put upon trial for this
act of General Grant’s —was daily led
to the bar in irons to feast the eyes
of the vultures, male and female, im
patient fo see him die—and after
weeks of torture was hanged by the
judgment of a military commission
who refused to take the testimony
that wonld have fixed the guilt upon
Gee. Grant. Now, how much worse
than that has the Captain General of
Cuba acted? Which transaction has
in it the most of cold-blooded atroc
ity?
It is true that we have lost in Cap
tain Fry a gallant ex-Confederate.—
But did we not also lose as gallant an
officer of our Confederate Navy in
Captain Beall, tried and hanged by
the Yankee Government after the war
was over, and when there could have
been not even the danger of a bad ex
ample in granting a pardon? Look
ing at both transactions, it seems to
me that the balance of outrage is
against that nation which put Captain
Beall through the forms of a trial,
and thereby glazed malignity aDd
cruelty with the devil,s darling sin—
hypocrisy.
Taka still an other case. A woman,
without evidence of her guilt, was
tried, condemened and ex seated by a
military tribunal against law, by Bing
ham and Holt and Johnson, under cir
cumstances of outrage so great that
even Mumford’s murderer charged
this as murder, in the House of Rep
resentatives, upon Bingham, and to
day Holt and Johnson are each trying
to fix the guilt of it upon the other.—
Has Cuba ever treated us worse than
that?
But look at another thing that touch
es us more nearly than any of these.
I mean the honor of our women .-—
When the chaste and refined puritan
General Butler issued that memora
ble order which got him the appropri
ate prefix of Beast, we all expressed
our horror; and that ns much as his
murder of • Mumfqrd caused his out
lawry by the Confedesate Executive.
But its if to improve on that, the mis
creants of General Grant’s pet gov-
emmen, whose usurped authority he
established, and which now reports to
him at Washington—I mean the Kei-
logg government of Louisiana—These
miscreants turned loose black negroes
to ravish white women; and if General
Grant has yet taken notice of it the
public is not informed of it, though
bis attention was mildly called to it by
papers which are now ready to- wage
war against Cuba, as they thought
the killing Of one unhappy gentleman,
who took the risk-wken he took com
mand, and of one hundred other men
who are nothing to us. was of more
concern and more atrocity than the
prape of Southern ladies by negroes nn-
fler white guidance.
Aiming to he as dispassionate as I
can when I recite a fact which strange
ly enough, our papers appear to have
treated as but little more than .a pas
sing “item,” but which seems to me
should send a shudder through every
Southern heart “and exhaust the pa
tience of the civilized world.”
These few facts, selected from the
Jpng catalogue of grievances under
which we daily suffer,; are they not
perfectly ■'air samples of the policy of
the Government—that is to say, the
people of the ruling States—against
Virginia and her Southern
Every man knows that from the sur
render pf Lee and Johnston to this
Jionr,—when hTcVeigh is to stand in
dicted by a jury of Radicals in a Fed-
grajepurt for slapping» man whose
pon'
has been worse than Cuba’s late fusi
lade, because it has been taken
against peacefnl fellow-citizens and
intended to insult and enslave them.
For more than eight yearsdve have
looked for judgment, but behold op
pression; for justice,, but behold a
cry-
“The hand of him who slew
His children, humbly to his lips raise."
v. as what old .-Priam thought the ex
treme of wretchedness. But for us,
in our circumstances, not only to do
that, but toroffer the balance of our
children-to die in liis Cause, is! a de
gree of debasement which even Homer
could not have conceived as the
crowning misery of the King of Troy.
For one, permit me to say Mat, if I
do not misjudge their spirit, most of
the men, and,, with their true .instincts,
all the women of Virginia will echo:
No, I will not send a son of mine to
lit in any cause where the United
States is a party, because, no matter
what the other side may-haVe done to
them, it has never ..treated us as the
United- States has ’done. For eight
long years the United States has nev
er intermitted in acts intended to en
slave, impoverish, and degrade our
people. The United States is not bur
country in any proper sense of the
word; it is not our home, but our
prison, and we are made’to feel it every
day. Love such a country as that!
Fight for such a country as that!
Not that we should take up arms for
Spain. What State can claim that re
turn at our hands? Not that we should
go as far as Mr. Corwin in bidding
the Spaniards to f‘welcome to bloody
graves with hospitable hands” the sol
diers of General Grant; nor yet-follow
the example of our Puritan masters in
181-1. at Hartford, but simply assert
that we will not volunteer and aid iu
a war which can bring to us no fruit
but in the discomfiture of our masters,
for not even is the acquisition of Cuba
desirable to us. How that- may -help
the commerce and manufactures of the
North, and how give them power by
enlarging the area of carpet-bnggery,
I think I see. But how can it benefit
ns, who have already a surfeit of black
and barbarous fellow-citizens?
This is to me a repulsive theme, and
I wonld not have attempted to discuss
it, if I had not seen brave and chival
rous gentlemen swift to take a posi
tion which I humbly conceive neither
to the interests nor the wishes of Vir
ginia demand or sanction.

The Chateau - of -Ampufllac is an
ancient dependency of the Abbey of
Bonlbonne, arondissement of Murat.
It is situated upon-the banks of the
Ariege, and was lately the property of
Mine. Gneyrand, a lady of much dis

novels. His escape from bis mother

days of 1857, in the palmy days of the
first issues of paper and in the horri
ble slaughter of 1864 It was there
that Travers and Jerome and M. Vick-
er rode then - reeking horses over the
slain of 1857; there that Jacob Little
made his nine fortunes, and lost each
in rapid succession; there that Antho
ny Morse, who had only been known
as a smart cler>», capable of adding
columns of four figures as quickly" as
other accountants could foot up one,
made with seven hundred dollars
a fortune of seven millions, and lost it
all, and became a helpless bankrupt in
the space of twelve month; there that
Dan Drew was alternately a bull and
a bear in Erie, and accumulated his
millions, in which the stock-holders in
that company did not share; there that
the great corners iu Rock Lsland,
Prairie dn Chien and Harlem were
planned and carreicl into effect; there
that the money was obtained from the
stock gamblers of Wall street to build
twenty thousand miles of Western
railway, without which our Western
States woulcTliave been a wilderness
to-day. At this time the board was
an exclusive affair. No one was ad
mitted 11 witness the transaction with
out the express sanction of the Presi
dent or Vice-President, and visitors
were unceremoniously hustled out of
the room when the board went into
“executive session.” Applicants for
membership were ballotted for, and
few blackballs excluded. These few
were generally forthcoming. Some of
the old members, decaying fortunes,
blackballed everybody on principal.
Jones blackballed Smith’s man be
cause his (Jones’) man had been black
balled the week previous. Robinsou
blackballed the applicant because he
had had a quarrel with his proposer.
In fact, the rain of blackballs was so
fast and furious that, when the war is
sues of paper money stimulated busi
ness in stocks to unusual activity, a
few of the rejected members banded
themeelves together and organized an
“Open Board.” Instead of excluding
the public and adopting arbitrary
rnles as to commissions,, -the Open
Board invited all the world to witness
all its sessions, ancLfiilbwed brokers to
charge what they pleased. The result
was inevitable. In three years the
Open Board did the lion’s share of the"
business of the street. This led to a
fusion of the boards or, rather, to the
admission at one swoop of all the
members of the Open Board to the
Stock Exchange.—Harpers Magazine.
A Noble Ferryman.
Three miles from Demopolis, on
French creek,-Alabama, a ferry was
once kept by a gentleman whose ele
gant manners, commanding appear
ance and splendid eyes attracted the
attention of all who passsd that way.
The man was Colonel Nicholas Raoul,
who had accompanied the Emperor
Napoleon in his banishment to Elba.
When the Emperor left that Island it
is said Colonel Roual commanded his-
advance guard of two hundred grena
diers. In Alabama, Colonel Raoul
was so poor that he ferried passengers
across French creek himself.
Li sight of this scene of his daily
toil, in an humble cabin, lived his wife
and children. Madame :Rapul, who
had once been a Marchiondss, and
also maid of honor to Queen Caroline,
tinder King Murat, was a brilliant
Italian beauty. From the glitter or
royalty, with its robes of velvet and
beds of down, she had turned aside to
share the fate of her husband. No
wonder the traveler gazed upon her
queenly form with reverence, or that
one felt honored at being ferried
across the stream by the illustrious

A Lojedoh newsboy, having strayed
into Surrey, was brought up before a
Justice of the Peace on some petty
charge. “Where.do you live?” asked
the justice. “With my mother,” an-
alone to the’Chateau to install in it a
new attendant The charge of the
building bad been cenfided, since the
death of Gueyrand, to-one. of
her servants, a man named Eugene
Mitron, aged 28.
The baron, immediately on his arri
val, applied himself to setting things
in order, , and announced his intention
of setting the property up for sale.—
He had fitted up a room on the first
floor for a cabinet de. travail, and slept
in the story above it. Mitron, who
had lived alene in the chateau, was
intimate with a carpenter of the neigh
borhood named Lassere, a man of bad
reputation, and this last is supposed
to have proposed the crime.
While the baron was working in the
cabinet, Mitron descended at 8 in the
evening to the kitchen, and urged up
on the gardener’s wife, who acted as
cook, but did not sleep in the house,
to go home. She did so, and in a few
minutes after Lasserre was let in, anil
the two accomplices, having taken .off
their shoes, and lit a lamp in the cor
ridor, entered the room where their
victim was sitting. Mitron addressed
his master as if to ask for orders, and
then gave place to Lasserre, who ad
vanced two steps, and, raising a hatch
et struck the baron a terrible blow on
the nape of the neck.
The victim fell, mortally wounded
and the murderer dispatched him by
two more blows on the temple. The
accomplices then made a complete bed
of papers and old registers, to which
they set fire; and after having pillaged
the drawers of the sum of three thou
sand francs, left t^e house and went
waiting for the flames to break out.
At two in the morning Mitron rush
ed into the court with cries of fire,
and the people in. the farm bnildings
close by came and mounted the
room, which was full of smoke. They
nevertheless entered and extinguished
the fire, which was smouldering. un
der the calcined remains of the vic
tim. The skull, however, remained
intact and sho wed the marks of vio
lence. Mitron, two days lifter his ar
rest, made a complete confession and
denounced his . uucomplice, Lassere.
The latter in vain attempted to prove
an alibi; but a carpenter’s rule belong
ing-to Lim-was -found near the body.
The baron’s wife and son, summoned
by telegraph, arrived soon after at
Toulouse.
As the results of more than thirty
experiments on the feeding of animals
on meat taken from tuberculous crea
tures, M. Collet concludes that such
flesh does not develop tubercles in
healthy animals. Where other exper
ime.nters have obtained opposite re
sults he believes that they have exper
imented on animals already diseased,
or have allowed portions of tubercu
lous matter to gain admission to the
lungs of the animals in the air they
breathed.
A French medical writer has exam
ined 900 cases of snicide, and deduces
therefrom the following conclusions:
Philosophical or premeditated snicide
is accomplished ’usually during the
night or a Ettie before daybreak; ac
cidental snicide, on the contrary, du
ring the day, because then the
exciting cause appears. The manner
also varies with the age. In ' early
youth it is usually by hanging; this
daring manhood, is abandoned for the
use of firearms; and as the bodily vig
or declines in old age, the method by
hanging is again adopted.
The dredge on the Challenger has
brought up nodules of peroxide of
manganese. Mr. Buchanan found
that these presented the concentric
layers and intimate structure of coral
and is of the opinion that they have
been formed by the slow substitution
of peroxide of manganese for calcic
carbonate in the original coral.
Those who have delicate galvanome
ters should be careful to see that they
are not kept in the field of permanent

lose their magnetism. (W. H. Preece.)
MM. Treve and Cliedeville find that
if a current of electricity traverses a
coil of wire that snrxound a cooling
ingot of cast steel, when perfectly

than when the current is not passed.
The magnetized steel also had less
power of resisting forces of extension

The Invisible Hinge.
The man Mo sees most of truth sees
the least necessity for greatly concern
ing himself about the-statement of it.
He needs must say the thing, but be
is not greatly exercised in that matter.
He has found that every rounded sys
tem soon loosens at an invisible hinge
and ; j stretches to, a moro oegmont
of the mighty circle, that truth is one
that perhaps any motto, true in
itself, clearly and honestly apprehend
ed and Hved upon, will answer; that
perhaps the shortest-statement is best.

that no false science can give nor take
away.
Is it strange that he should impute
divinity to even the husky errors of a
