Life I'm Cheyenne--Sh0Oti Among
10 SOldiers-Sufcide.

The Cheyenne Argus, of the 10th
inst. says that most excellent officer of
the United States Infantry was shot on
Sunday morning, at Fort Saunders,
through the head. by private, and in
stantly killed. 1t appears that Lieuten-
ant VIM. w. Bell had put one of his
company under discipline for drunken
ness, ordering him to carry heavy
knapsack. This he refused to do, and
shot his officer. as above stated. Upon
this. another private shot the soldier
who had committed the deed. Lieu
tenant Bell was highly esteemed by his
regiment, and General Vessels, espe-
cially, thought highly Of him. He has
been in Canada, and stood next to Cap
taincy in the line of promotion.
The same paper gives an account of a
suicide in Cheyenne committed by Mr..
WIS. Hall, who walked deliberately
down to the railroad track at the foot Of
Eddy street, waited quietly at the side
of the track until train of cars ap-
preached within three feet of him. and

great many physicians, but without relieving her
much in fact, most Of them said there was no hope
of cure. During the last spripg she worse than

onsa sort Of bag pipe. Throughout
England and the continent, and in
some parts of this country, the bells
at midnight are ruug to usher in the
day. n
In some countries straw is used as
an emblem in Christmas festivities,
because our Saviour, as newborn
child, was laid upon straw in the
manger. This manger-worship, as it
was called in the middle ages, is still
retained in some retired regions of
Catholic countries, and is made the
motive to the development of much
sacred poetry and art
Among the ancient Christmas
dishes, the first and foremost in pomp
and circumstance was the soused
boar's head, which was borne in state
and solemnity upon gold or silver
plate with minsIreisie' meaner
metal would snffice-into the ban
quoting hall by the sewer, the herald
singing as he bore it, "Capm apri
dsferro retldens la,tcles Dominic"
1t Is the tradition that student at
Queens College, Oxford, while on a
walk, reading Aristotle. being sudden
ly and furionsly attacked by q wild
boar, rammed his book into the ami
malls throat, crying Grecuna est, and
choked him to death. This dish
commentaries his valor.
The next dish in Importance was
the pcacock, which was skinned,
cooked, and the skin returned, the
animal thus being life like as placed
upon the table. 1t was carried to
the dining hall to the sound of music,
by lady distinguished for birth and
beauty, and served by those of like
distinction. who followed it into the
hall. Geese, capons, pheasants dress
ed with ambergrease, pies of carps'
tongues, nnd Jurmdnte, n concoction
which was neither flesh, fowl, nor
good red herring" were also among
the dishes. N1inco pies were popu-
lar, under the name of "mutton
pies" as early rs 1896, later authori-
ties using meats tongue instead of
mutton, the other ingredients being
about the same as at the present day.
Plum pottage, beef or mutton
broth, thickened with brown bread,
with raisins, currants, prunes. cloves,
mace and ginger added, was another
dish always served at the first course.
Plum pudding, or plum porridge,
was another.
At the present day, Christmas,
divested of the ancient glories, its
boisterous jollities, and cxuberance
of animal spirits, is nevertheless a
season of thousand genial infu-
ences. The gathering of scattered
households around tho Christmas
hearth and board, strengthens the
hallowed feelings of domestic love,
renews sweet memories, inspires
strength for the future, and in tho
sacred associations with which they
are entwined, the active deeds Of
kindness they engender-these fami-
ly clusterings almost give us reali
cation of the angelic message to the
Shepherds of Bethlehem--"Glory to
God in the highest. on earth peace.

TATIoN BITTERs will ward off Fever
and Ague and all kindred diseases, if
used in time. No family need suffer
from this distressing complaint, if
they will keep PLANTATION B1rrERs
in the house, and use it according to
directions. The most important in
gredient of this medicine is the Cali.
saya or Peruvian Bark, which is
known to be the finest and purest
tonic in the vegetable kingdom.
The extract of this Bark is the active
principle of all the good Fever and
Ague Medicines prescribed by intel
ligent doctors. Calisaya Bark is
used extensively in the manufacture
of PLANTATION BITTERs, as we'll as
qninine, and we dare say they owe
their popularity mostly to that fact.

SIR: The extraordinary message of
Gov. Scott to the Legislature, touch
ing my position as Superintendent of
the Penitentiary, renders it necessary
that should make proper reply.
This I shall attempt to do, by asking
you to publish my statement, pre-
pared and submitted to the Commits
sion, which has been investigating
certain charges against me. The
public will then see the character of
the charges and how refuted. I shall
also ask you to publish my report to
Gov. Scott, embracing my transac-
tions during the past year. The pub
lie is entitled to this information and
my own self-respect demands that it
should be given.
Gov. Scott may find it conyenient
to propose to discharge me from my
present position. Indeed, I havo
no desire to retain tho place; but I
have no idea that Gov. Scott shall
misrepresent my official conduct,
which is above suspicion, and use it
as pretext to carry ont his views and
wishes, without an answer from me
and without the impartial judgment
of the public, whose servant I am.
Respectfully,
THOMAS B. LEE, JR.,
Acting Superintendent South Ca
rolina Penitentiary.

There is no more charming custom
connected with this festival than that
of the Christmas Carols, which in
joyous and devout strains celebrate
the nativity of the Saviour, and
which has given to us much of the
sweet and simple poetry that most
adorns English literature. The Gus

The Yule-log was laid upon the fire,
while the people sat around, regaling
themselves with beer. In the course
of the night small parties went about
from house to house, chanting these
simple, popular ditties, full of joyful
allnsion to the Redeemer; and it is
still the custom, during the last days
preceding Christmas, for the Calabrian
