death of his insane wife, RADIUS married again, but
a few nights ago the first wife entered his resi-
denCe. She was accompanied by young child
which had been born after she became insane and
after she escaped from the asylum. Of her wan
derings she had but an indistinct recollection. She
remembered having waded through swamps and
woods until she came to steamboat, upon which
she got, and finally found herself in Buffalo, where
q physician took charge of her and succeeded in
curing her. What the upshot of the present state
of affairs will be, it is difficult to surmise.

The second company of Zouaves, under Captain
de Bordenaye, marched up from their barracks
yesterday afternoon, and were reviewed on Lafay
etc square, preparatory to leaving f6r Pensacola
Their appearance-wth their loose red trousers,
leggings, CATERS, blue jackets and fez caps-was
decidedly unique, and withal very warlike. They
Appealed to be very well drilled, and were fine,
stalwart body Of men, who, we are sure, will be
hard customers to meet at bayonet point. Every
thing about them told that in spite of their snowy
and strange dress, they meant war, and that they
were commanded by men who knew what it was
A very notable feature about the company was
two pretty and graceful young girls, who go with
them as uiUandieres, or to translate it into plain
English, bottle, holders. They were dressed in the
uniform of their company, and will share its
dangers and glory on the battlefield. The zouaves
are becoming immensely popular with all classes
Of our young men. We have heard of several CON
nected with our best Creole families who have en-
listed to serve in the ranks. From such facts, we
Judge that no trouble will be experienced in get
ting the full complement of men as soon as they
can be equipped. Capt. de Bordenave was unable
to embark his company yesterday, we learn, on
account of the vessel in which they were to be
transported not being ready. They will leave to-
day,

in one of the most beautiful portions of the Garden
District, consists of fine large, two-story brick
building, containing eight rooms, every one of
which seems to be filled to its utmost capacity
with the beauty and intellect of that favored sec
ton of our CITY,
Besides the main building, we saw several Of
those unsightly wooden tenements, of which the
Live Oak and the Laurel School premises have so
many. Here, as in those schools, every one of
these rooms was crowded. Can they not be dis
pensed with? These beautiful children and faith
full teachers ought to be better accommodated.
We were much pleased with the fue appearance
of She children, both boys ard girls. We have
never seen, anywhere, more beautiful, fine looking
and intellectual girls, or more handsome, manly
welLbehaved boys than in this school.
The school numbers 400 girls, including the Chest
nut branch, and upwards Of 300 boys.
We spoke of the taste exhibited by our Live OAK
friends in decorating their school rooms, but we
must admit that the Magnolia folks are not whit
inferior to them. The beautiful and appropriate
notices " done up" in evergreen, the bouquets o
sweet and pretty flowers, the wreaths and spiral'
of flowers, and evergrcens intermixed, the smiling
happy faces of joyous childhood, the gratfe(

RECORDER LONG.

The estimable Recorder of the Third District,
Webster Long, is once more upon his seat, as Re-
corder of the Third District. For many months
he has suffered almost living death, with eyes
infamed and sightless healthy in all but his eyes,
his brave and cheerful spirits have helped him
through months of Egyptian blackness. Medical
and surgical operations have racked his frame
with keenest physical agony; but the warm and
kindly voices of family and friends, whilst his eyes
were blind, breathel hope and good cheer in at
his ears. His eyes are now well again, thanks to
medical science; he can look out upon and drink
in once more the glorious picture of sunshiny New
Orleans life. We never were blind, bat may
Heaven preserve US from the affiiction of blind
ness, or the dark and painful ordeal which has for
so many months beset the worthy and popular
Recorder of the Third District.

went to hedging, and when the nags came up for
the third heat, it was tHo to one on Equinox
The start this time was also an excellent one.
Again Equinox saucily took the lead, Bette being
second, and giving hot chase, whilst Twilight never
waited for the shades of evening. 1t was close all
the way round between Equinox and Bette; in
the turn for the home run, Abe coaxed out of Bet
tie all the speed there was in her, and as they en-
tered the homestretch, they seemed to be fairly
lapped. Great was the excitement, in hopes OF
broken heats, or one heat for Bettie. Go 1t,
Abe!u "Now, you black devil, ride as you never
rode before!n Bnt Bette's legs were unequal to
the task and Abe hadn't been provided with

some disposition to wait for the shades Of evening,
but still making sure not to be distanced.

The Indications are that the contest for United

Lane had his slate made up few days before the
beginning of the session, and was quite sure of
election but the developments so far have smash
ed it completely. The Republicans are divided in
a Lane and anti Lane wing the latter embracing
all the opposition united.
The notorious Dr. Jennison, who figured so con-
spicuously in Montgomery's band of murderers
last fall, is here fighting Lane with a vengeance.
He rakes up some heavy scores against the Gen
eral, on account of his treachery 1t is possible he
is actuated in his oppoaiton by the Of Lane
in denouncing him among conservative Republi-
cans. 10 make favor with the people of Fort
Scott, he lately said he would hang the jayhawk-
ing doctor if he had the power Jennison has evil
IDENTITY got the devil in him, and may take a notion
to make tim kick up little for the amusement Of
the Legislature.
