There was considerable excitement in camp yesterday over the large num ber of soldiers who had recently taken "French leave,” and the report that one hundred and fifty had agreed' to desert before leaving for Cuba. About 11 o’clock in the morning Lieutenant Colonel Spence sent nearly an entire company in the city i as a provoat guard, a guard waa stationed on every road leading from the city. Sergeant squads were tent out all * over the Stale, while every place be tween Atlanta and Maccn bad an •fi • • ■ armed soldier to inspect the passporta of each so dier on the trains, and stop all without furloughs Lieut. Col. Spence requested Mr. Williams, the ticket agent at thia city, to sell no man, in soldiers’ uniform, a 1 ticket, unless the purchaser produced a furlough signed by the commander of camp. Two hundred and fifty guards were ou duty all day yesterday, while new squads were being detailed and sent off on every out going train- The men seemed determined to take ‘ "French leave,” regardless of the pre caution taken in camp, aa several of the provost guard were missing before ’ dark. 1 Some complaining has been beard throughout camps by the men since * the order came to prepare to go to I Cuba, but it was not of each violence aa to cause suspicion. It now seems the men were only i waiting (o be paid off when they would make the final effort to free I themselves of the yoke they bore. Tuesday was pay day and it aeema they have been continually going out , since receiving their money. Every effort is being made to pre vent thia desertion among the men and those who have already taken * French leave” may rest assured if 1 caught they will pay dear for their rash act. I .

The initial . steps , have been taken through the agency of the French embassy, which in this . ease acts no longer sc the represents tive of the Spanish government, but for French subjects. , Through the embassy a moat for midable statement has been presented to the state department, being an ac- I count of the various Spanish bonds , owned by French citizens, chargeable against the territories either seized or ) set free by the act of the United States , government. The total sum of these bonds run up far infektbe millions. Just what is expected Small be done with them is not made clear. Os course the Uni ted States will not pay them, ■' but it may be that the French gov* eminent looks to it U) cause the inde , pendent government of Cuba to as sume liabilities for the redemption of the bonds charged againsutbat island, when that government shall have , been duly installed by the act of the . United States government. ! It is probable that other holders of , like bonds, Germany and British, will take similar steps to have their claims ] brought through their diplomatic rep } resentativee to the attention of the > United States government, and it may i even be that the holders of each bonds in Spain, though Spanish citizens, r will take a like couree, which would , present a novel claim upon the gener ) oeity of the United States government. An Important Difference. 1 To make it apparent to thousands, who ’ think themselves ill, that they are not af flicted with any disease, but that the sys • tern simply needs cleansing, is to bring i comfort home to their hearts, as a costive i condition is easily cured by using Syrup f of Figs.

The King of Usurers- Some remarkable details of the ca reer of Ferdinand Linke, the “Kiug of the Usurers,” who recently died in Vienna, are given in the London f Morning Leader from its correspond ent in Austrian capital. Linke came ’ to Vienna from the ghetto of a provin cial town in Gaiicia in the early sixties and began a money lending business on a small scale. His loans were stnall, but the rate of interest he charged was enormous, and he soon began to accu mulate capital. In the early part of 1 his career he was content with from * 60 to 80 or 100 per cent, interest, but ’ as be grew older in rascality he extort -1 ed as much as 400 or 500 per cent. ’ from bis foolish victims. By these means be became a millionaire, Linke * underwent eeveral terms of imprison ment for usury, but the greed of gold * always drove him back to bis illegal traffic in money. 1 He lived alone, guarded by a num ber of savage bloodhounds. His doors r and windows were barred and bolted, 1 and his illgotten gains bid in different parts of his bouse. Linke’s will has » been made public. He has left all his wealth to hie only daughter, whom be * so neglected during his lifetime that * she was obliged to undertake menial 3 work for 3 shillings a week. Linke, however, with the instinct of a miser I attached the very cbaracterietic con . dition to the acceptance of bis mag , nificent legacy that not a farthing of r it should at any time be applied to any charitable purpose.
