TALBOTTON, TALBOT COUNTY,- GEORGIA, TUESDAY, AUGUST 27, 1878.
A Thrilling Tragedy.
ELIZABETH OF SPAIN.
A splendid court festival was giv
en at the royal palace in Madrid,on
the 10th, of March, 1070.
From an early hour in the oven.
ing the gorgeous apartments of the
magnificent building were crowded
with gayly dressed courtiers ana
army officers in gold embroidered
uniforms.
King Charles 11. of Spain had
been absent from the capital several
mouths, and this festival was given
in honor of his return to Madrid.
As he sat on his throne chair by
the side of his consort, Donna Eliza
beth of Parma, it was plainly to bo
seen that his Castillian majesty was
greatly bored by what was going on
around him.
Every now and then ho yawned,
without so much ns an effort to con
coni his breach of good manners.
Occasionally the queen—a cold,
haughty, beauty, whoso flashing
eyes, however, indicated that she
was a woman of violent passions,
and that she could be aroused to
burst of terrible anger—sometimes
addressed a remark to her royal
husband,who rarely even vouchsafed
a reply to her. At last the queen
said to him;
‘Your majesty, lot us rise and
I promenade among tho guests.*
j lie sprang to his feet and hurried
|Io the daughter of the Duke Oliva
rez, a very beautiful girl, to whom
I lie offered his arm.
I The queen, for a moment, seemed
well nigh stunned by this fresh in
j milt.
1 She heaved a profound sigh, and
pressed his small, gloved hand I
against her tumultuously heaving
bosom. Then looking about, she
perceived that some of the courtiers
standing dose to her, who had evi
dently watched tho unpleasant
scene, were smiling rather supercili
ously. At once she recovered her
I presence of mind. Drawing herself
i to her full height, she passed majes
tically through the throng, and
walked into tho conservatory, which
at that time was tho finest in tho
I old World.
! The air was impregnated with the
! sweet odors of tho choicest exotics
i brought from tho Spanish colonies
j in the tropics.
! It was a truly fairy-lika scene
i which this magnificent winter gar
. den presented.
I The queen went to ono of its
i deepest recesses. There, completely
! hidden from view by the large leaves
of a gigantic Brazilian Malgare
plant, she threw herself into an easy*
chair, and sank into a prolound and
sombre reverie.
A few minutes afterward she was
startled by the laughter of two gen
tlemen, who, without suspecting
her presence, had seated themselves
on a cushioned bench in front of tho
Malgare tree.
‘Well,* said one of them, 'I must
still laugh when I think of the
manner in which our gracious king
just treated his haughty consort.
Ho is a rascal,and if she knew what
he was doing, my dear Marquis de |
Salderon, she would open her mag
nificent eyes very wide indeed.’
‘And what is the king doing, Se
nor da Cnesta ?’
‘Why, he has more mistresses
than the queen has precious pearls
in her large necklace.’
‘I have heatd rumors of it, Mar
quis, but know nothing positive.’ j
‘Well, I know all about the love
affairs of this miserable monarch,
who is a veritable disgrace to Spain.
This royal rake is on illicit terms, to
begin, with the queen, tho Countess
Castro and the Viscountess Bella
Pablo. Among his other inamoratas
are six young peasant girl?.’
‘ Peasant girls, Senor da Cuesta?’
‘Yes, peasant girls, marquis. You
ought to know that, ns far as wo
men are concerned, Charles the Sec
ond is by no means fastidious in
his tastes. Why, one of tho palace
scullions here, two years ago,struck
his fancy. She gave birth to a sort,
now lives in grand style at Segovia,
the king having granted her a Lib
eral pension. 1
The quetn had not lost a word of
this startling conversation.
Hearing that the Marquis de
Salkeron and Senor de Cuesta, went
to another part of the conservatory,
she hurried to a side door and ass
cended a staircase leading to her
apartment.
She opened the door of her bod
chamber, where one of her ladies of j
honor, tho beautiful Countess de j
Castro, was waiting for her.
A COUNTRY NEWSPAPER FOR THE MASSES -DEVOTED. TO CIVILIZATION AND MONEY-MAKING.
The queon nodded her head coldly
to her. Then sho unlocked a small
ebony writing desk, from which she
took a poniard with a short, pointed
blade.
Turning to the countess,tho queen
bout a terrible glance upon the
young lady, who began to tremble
violently.
‘Sonoritn,’ said the queen to her,
‘I have been told that you are my
royal husband's mistress 1’
The countess turned livid.
She endeavored to speak, but her
tongue refused to serve her.
‘Ah, you aru guilty, then!’ cried
the queen. ‘Diotiionl’
And she plunged her poniard into
the breast of her lady of honor.
With a loud groan the countess
sank to tho floor. Sho had been
mortally wounded, and after a few
brief, spasmodic struggles, during
which the queen watched her with a
diabolical expression of countenanco,
she expired.
The royal murderess kicked her
victim’s blood-stained corps con
temptuously aside.
Then she wrapped herself in a
long cloak and drew oyor her face a
thick veil which completely hid her
features, and left tho bed-chamber,
whose door sho carefully locked.
She directed her slops toward tho
opposite wing ol Ihe royal palace,
where the king had his apartments.
Addressing an officer of the sol
diers on guard there she said to
him.
‘lias his majesty, the king, re
turned to his apartments?’
‘Hollas, fair Sonora,’ replied the
officer, who was well aware of tho amo
rous propensities of his sovereign.
‘Do you wish to see his ma
jesty ?’
‘Does the king know that you are
coming ?’
Shy nodded her head.
-‘All right, then,’ added tho offi
cer.
She passed on to a door, through
the key-. hole of which a brilliant
light was showing. She stood Still a
few moments and listened.
‘Ho is alone,’ she murmured at
last.
She was right. Charles tho Sec
ond was alono in his sitting room,
where ho was walking up and down,
evidently in tho worst possible hu
mor.
‘Can there bo any truth in it?’ he
said to himself, standing still for a
moment. ‘The fortune-teller said to
me: ‘You will fall by tho baud of a
woman.’ Everybody says that her
predictions are always verified.
What woman should kill me?’
Ho shuddered, for ho was an ar
rant coward. And yot lie was a de
scendant of Emperor <'harles V., the
hero of so many hard-fought battles.
So low had tho Spanish dynasty fal
len in the course of a single century.
Suddenly the door opened. A
veiled lady stepped in. Tho king
started hack in terror.
‘Who aro you?’ lie gasped.
She .emovod her veil.
‘Oh, is it you, Elizabeth ?’ he criod
angrily. ‘How daro you—’
‘I shall dare a great deal more to
night, your magesty,’ sho replied,
mockingly. ‘I have come to talk to
you about your mistresses.*
‘My mistresses?!
‘Yes. 1 have just killed ono of
them.’
Tho king uttered a cry of sur
prise.
‘Who is It ?’ he gasped.
‘J killed your inamorata, tho Coun
tess do Castro,’
‘The king flew into a towering rage.
He stamped his foot, and then
rusho 1 toward the queen as if to
strike her.
‘Beware ! I am prepared for you.
I have come to kill you, too.’
She said this with flashing eyes,
and in so menacing a tone, that she
frightened her cowardly husband.
She showed him her small poniard,
still stained with the blood of the j
air victim, and said:
‘The queen of Spain should never
forgive an insult. Your last moment
is at hand.’
She rushed at him with the pon
iard in her uplifted hand
And now occurred a most disgust
ing scene.
The king tried lo run awuy from
her, shouting:
‘Murder! Help! Murder!’
Suddenly a side door.opened, and
the king's secretasy, the villianous
Herman Mallendez, rushed in.
He succeeded in disarming the in- ;
furiated queen. While ho held her,
the king, with a handkerchief, tied
her arms behind her.
‘She threatened to murder me !
cried the king. ‘She shall be tried
for this act of /.- so Maje.de at onco
by three grandees of tho kingdom.
You know who to summon as jtulgos,
Mallendez.’
The secretary then exchanged a
significant glance with the king and
left tho room.
As soon ns ho left tho room tho
queen made a desperate effort to
free her hands but the king succeed
ed in holding her until Mallendez re
appoared. Ho ushered into tho
room three richly dressed young
men.
They were grandees of Spain, but
worthless dobauchors and boon com
panions of liis royal majesty. The
king ordered them to judge the
queen, who, ho said, had just tried
to murder him with a poniard.
Tho queen disdainfully refused to
be judged by them.
They found her guilty, and order
ed her to bo executed without delay.
‘Death is bolter than dishonor !’
she exclaimed, with firmly compress
od lips. .
‘I commute the sentence to im
prisonment for life,’ said tho king.
’I refuse to bo pardoned by such
a reprobate as you,’ replied the queen
disdainfully.
The king signaled to tbreo gran -
dees who left Hie room quite uncon
cernedly.
Wo might hero remark, parenthet
ically," that Ihese throe grandees
were assasinated on their way back
to their homes that very night—it is
easy to be perceived by whose orders
this was done.
Mallendez, with the natural cun
ning of a villinn, had brought with
him handcuffs and a gag.
While tho king held her Mallou
dez shaokeled and gagged her.
Then the two men carried Iter to
a subterranean cell.
lu that coll tho queen remained
uulil her death, which took place
twenty years later, under the sur
vollauce of a cruel jailor, who had
been ordered to shoot her at sight
in case sho should make an attempt
to escape.
Her food was coarse and scatdy,
and sho was furnished with gar
ments such as the servant girls of
Madrid wore.
But notwithstanding all her suff
erings her proud spirit never could
be subdued.
Tho king caused the rumor to be
circulated that his consort was ins
satin, and finally that she had died a
raving maniac; and no ono dared to
contradict it.
lie married in 1070 a Portugese
Princess, who soon left him, how
ever, Rome sinister rumors regarding
tho disappearance of his first wife
having ronobed his ears.
The Countess de Castro was buried
in llk* dead of night in tho presence
of Mallendez and tho king, who told
her proud relatives that she had
eloped with a French adventurer.
They did not dare to question his
majesty's voracity.
Charles 11. died in 1700. His
agony was long and painful.
Mallendez survived him. He dis
appeared mysteriously during the
following reign.
A great invasion of kangaroos re
cently occurred in various settled
parts of Australia, especially Queens
land, the animals being no doubt,
driven from tho interior by the
drought and its effects, in search of
food. They came in thousands, de
vouring everything in- the shape of
herbs or grain, so that the sheep and
cattle were oiten reduced to dry
leaves for fodder. The colonists
promptly met the attack, in some
cases driving the kangaroos into an
enclosure and shooting them. In
tho battle more than 4000 kangaroos
were killed in four days.
The Fourth of July was celebra
ted in Sun Francisco by some of
Kearney's followers by the sending
up of the biggest skyrocket to be
bought in the place, with a cat at
tached to it, and a big bomb attach
ed to the cat’s tail. The fuse of the
rocket and that of the bomb were
lighted simultaneously. Bucket, eat
and bomb flew through the uir like
lightning. The cat could be seen
struggling till the rocket reached its j
greatest height. Then the bomb ex
ploded, and cat, rocket and bomb
were seen no more.
Henry Jackson, aged seventeen,
took a younger boy out into deep !
water, at Leavenworth. Kan., and 1
deliberately drowned him. Tho
deed seems to have ,been without a
definite motive, except to kill some
body. Jackson says that ho had no
ill will toward his victim, but ho
had made up his mind that ho would
like to be hanged as a, murderer.

A BHOIIT STOIIY SHOWING WHAT A ONE
SIDED MAN HEROD WAS.
From tho New York Herald. ]
A pretty little girl, five years old,
with ona of those sugar-loaf huts
modeled after Fra Diavolo's in tho
play no doubt, come on board the
Staten Island ferry boat Westfield
last evening. In her train was a
woary-looking middle-aged lady,
whom sho treatod with condescen
sion and called ‘Auntie,’ After the
young lady had found a comforlablo
seat in the bow of the boat, sho al
lowed her aunt to take a camp stool
near by. When tho boat started
sho began a systematic method of
torture, to which the middle aged
lady submitted with wonderful resig
nation.
‘ls that water, auntie ?’ sho nskod,
pointing towards the bay.
‘Yes,dear,’ said the weary-looking
lady.
‘Did the rain make all that water?’
‘No, darling.’
‘Why didn’t tho rain mako all
that water ?’
‘Oh, tho rain wouldn’t affect it,you
know.’
‘Why wouldn’t tho rain ‘feet it?
‘Oh, you cau’t understand that
now. 1
‘Why can’t I understand it ?’
‘Never mind; do keep still, that’s
a dear, auntie’s head aches.’
‘What makes your head ache,
auntie ?’
‘The heat, I suppose.’
‘What makes the heat?’
‘The sun, of course, dear.’
‘What is tho suit?’
•‘You know what the sun is well
enough: I shan’t answer that.’
Tho little girl twisted uneasily in
her chair for a moment and then
burst out with the question:
‘What makes horse’s bones?’
‘I don’t know,’ said tho aunt, in a
despairing tone.
‘I think they’re made out of skin,’
said the little girl, with an air of
conviction. ‘Yes, thoy’ro made out
of nkiu nn’ hair an’ wool an’ rubber;
and that’s what horse’s bones is
made out of.’
‘Yes, dear,’ said tho shameless
woman.
‘lf my pa gets that bone taken out
of his leg he’ll give me his watch.
Would you have a bene taken out
of your log, auntie ?’
‘You ridiculous child, of course
not.’
‘Why not?’
‘Oh, keep still.’
Tho young lady then got up and
nearly fell over the rail into the
water. The aunt uttered n shriek,
and tho writer, much against his
will, rescued the young lady
‘Thank you, sir,’ said tho aunt.
‘What for?’ asked the terrible in-,
funt.
‘For nothing,’ said tho rescuer.
‘Auntie, did you ever see a little
dicky bird flirt up its tail and sing?’
‘Yes, dear.’
‘ Where ?’
‘1 mean no, dear.’ (Desperately.)
‘Did you seo that colored lady,
auntie ? She had on a fearful pretty
hat, over so much prettier than
yours.—l want to go homo.’
‘You musu't go home; your
mamma is sick, you must go with
mo.
‘What makes mamma sick ?‘
‘Never mind, sho‘ll bo well in a
week or two.*
‘But I wants to know what makes
her sick ?
‘Never mind, dear.’
‘Why? I —but just then tho boat
swung up to her pier at Stapleton,
and tho inquisitive young lady and
her submissive aunt disembarked.
