at her French home because she did not
wish to expose them to the incemency OF
the weather. Other members OF the
family were invited to meet the Baron
and the Baroness Derlandes, and great
preparations were made for the holiday
festivities, which in Germany last through
the week that follows Christmas. On
the 26th of December amidst the rejoic-
ings, the Baroness received q letter from
her children's governess stating that her
little daughter had been coughing for
some hours, but that the family physician
declared that it was merely temporary
attack and of little consequences. AT the
reception of this news the Imagination OF
the Young mother became excited. She
fancied that her daughter was very i'll,
and reproached herself violently for not
having brought her children with her.
Her husband, father and mother, endeav-
ored to tranq quilze her by pointing out
that the letter was of favorable charac-
ter, but nothing could dissipato her fears,
and she insisted on leaving Cologne at
once. She assembled to her apartments
on the second story to make preparations
for starting, followed by her husband,
who, finding that he could not shake her
determination to leave, soon came down
to give instructions for the journey.
Shortly afterwards lie returned up stairs,
accompanied by his wfe's sister. On en-
tcring the room where he had left the
Baronness they found it empty. In a
moment of frenzy, produced by over anS,
ety, the beautiful young. Baroness had
fling herself out. On being taken up,
she said in feeble voice: "What have |
done? thought l had wings, and that
they would take me to my children"
There was q hope for little time that
she might recover, but it was not real
lied, and on the last day of the year she
died, only twenty-four years of age;
This is q sad tale, and the saddest of all
is that it is true. Almost everybody in
Cologne gricved over an event so terrible

Colonel Won Borcke.

The editor of the Mobile Times has.
learned from reliable source tnat Col.
Heros Won Borcke, who distinguished him
self so highly during the late war as an
aid to the lamented Stuart, was killed at
the battle of Sadowa. The Times says:
!. The christian name. of Col. Won Borcke
was Ferdinand, but his daring courage in
in several private and public engagements
had gained for him, amongst the fery
youth of the Prussian aristocracy, the sur
name of "Heros,"' or the "Heroic." He
was the descendant of one Of the noblest
families of Germany, and son to Baron
Won .Borcke, of Castle Berneuchen in
Mecklenburg, one of the wealthiest men
of the land. After his return to Europe,
which took place before the final collapse
of the Confederacy, Col. Won Borcke, as
it is we'll known, went to England, and
there published those interesting memoirs
on the Southern war for independence,
which gave such vogue to Blackwood's
Magazine. On the breaking out of hostili-
ties in Germany, he at once repaired to
Berlin and rendered his services to that
army where he had already served with
distinction. But impatient of the delays
interposed in his restoration to his former
rank, Col. Won Borcke, like many other
illustrious officers Of still higher rank, en-
listed as volunteer in his former corps,
the Cuirassiers, and joined the army in Bo-
hemia.
What his history was during that short
and ever memorable campaign which, i'll
thirty days changed the face of Europe,
no one can tell; but from his antecedents
we know that it must have been glorious;
vet, all that his friends afterwards learnt
of the fate of the gallant soldier was, that
at the battle of Sadowa, while his squad
ron were plunging wildly into rapid
and deep stream, the bulky form and the
heavy cuirass of Heros-or Ferdinand Won
Borcke-became too much for his charger,
and that; like Poniatowski, he found in the
waters that grave he had SO often contem-
plated on the battlefield (. 49,,
But, wherever his mortal remains may
have been carried by the angry flood,
there let them be held in reverence by all
who value courage, devotion and heroism,
and let the traveller, as he passes the hal
lowed spot, uncover his head and tread
lightly over the soil

Mr.. PEABoDY's DoNATIoN.-Th Charles
ton Courier, noticing the return of Gov.
Aiken from Washington, says:
Tie Governor has already received nu-,
merous applications from young men in
this State for means, under the Peabody.
fund, to complete their education. Nc
systematic plan for distribution has as,
yet been adopted. This measure has
been postponed until the trustees meet
Mr.. Peabody again, as agreed upon, Pt
the Fifth Avenue Hotel New York, on.
the 10th March. In the meantime, the,
various members of the board Of trustees
are to obtain as thorough information as
possible of the wants Of the different Sec
tions of country. With this view, Mr..
George Peabody Russell, nephew Of the
liberal donor, and Mr.. Eaton, are to make.
a tour through the South, and will also
visit Charleston.
At the meeting in March, all the re-
ports ana proposed plans will then be
considered, and some definite action
taken. The money will also be paid over
at that time into The hands of the trus-
tees, and it is hoped that the whole
scheme will be in full and successful ope-.
ration by the first of May Public notice,
will be given through the press of the.
country, and by printed circulars, of the
mode and manner in which the schools
are to be set in operation. The highest
order of talent is to be employed.
Mr.. Peabody proposes to return to
England in tfo Spring. Should his life
be spared, IN about two years he will
again visit America, when he designs
making tour through the South, with
Gov. Aiken and other members Of the
trustees, to witness the working of the
| schools intended to be- established.

that ore can be obtained of undoubted
richness and in sufficient quantity to
more than compensate for any labor per-
formed in extracting the same. The
ability to work these lodges strikes us as
necessary question in arriving at just
conclusion. We have in our county
twelve quartz mills capable perhaps Of
crushing all the quartz that the present
force could extract from these mines
during the short seasons Of the coun try.
The expense of crushing, amalgamating
and other necessary expenditures we are
satisfied would still leave large margin
in favor of the operative The yield of
the past season is only to be glanced at
to satisfy the most ipcredulous, that I'M
der similar circumstances Owyhee will
not anyhow retrograde. The Bullion
shipped last year was fabulous in quanti-
ty. Remember that much labor has
been performed, many lodges have been
developed, more quartz mills erected and
increased knowledge and facility in work
ing ore and every doubt of success v~n-
ishes as surely as the frost of the morn
ing before the glory of the rising sun
One other evidence of vitality in Owyhee
can be seen by looking over the court
calender Where much litigation exists
and that on an extensive scale, ban ishes
every thought of decay. The title to
quartz claims being in controversy, is
sure evidence of the richness of the same

people to pay obsequius homage to every

Future of owyhee.

In Shakespeare's celebrated "Mer-
chant of Venice"a character is represent
ed as beinga "Daniel." The wisdom
this ideal character exhibited in the trial
between Shylock aud Antonio was so ex-
traordinary, the foresight and knowledge
of the law, SO clear and perfect as to
command the respect and plaudits of the
ussemblage. Whether this parsonage
possessed any power to read the future

barriers and obstacles these present, con-

ton and ascertain if possible whether

facility of obtaining the ore together
with the quantity, upon human tcstimo-
ny. This is absolutely necessary and one
of the essential laws of society. As to
the quality, there is not, and neither can
there be question. Of the thousand
