one night fell over the footlights, and was
with great difficulty rescued from the
fearful fate that subsequently befell her
in this city. She soon recovered, and re-
mained at the Palace Varieties until the
close of the season.
Her mother seems also to have been OPP
posed to Kate's Variety life, for one day
when the ballet master called to notify
her of a rehearsal the exasperated
mother threw over him a pan of hot
ashes. He cleared the premises some
what demoraliEed, and didn't travel that
way again.
| She afterward left her native city and
came here to Louisville, securing an en-
gagement at the Academy of Music. On
the opening of the Metropolitan, she
found a friend here in the person of
young man who had plenty of money,
and who, after the misfortune which de-
prived her of life, made no attempt to
conceal his attachment, but did all in
his power that her sufferiugs might be
alleviated.
After remaining sometime at the Me-
tropolitan. she secured an engagement
at Gunkel's Academy of Music, in Nash
vile, and in company with Miss Mollie
Barrett, left this city.
Her name always appeared upon the
bills as Mademoiselle Marie, or Millie
Marie-never as Kate Hayden, which
was her maiden name. At Nashville,
the son of the proprietor of one of the
leading hotels of that city fell desper-
ately in love with her, but it does not
appear that his advances were encour-
aged, or that she succeeded very well at
the Academy of Music, for she soon re-
turned to Louisville and resumed her
old place at the Metropolitan.
On the night of the goth Of October, she
was doing" solo with the corps de
ballet, when, in the giddy whirl of the
exciting dance, a false motion threw her
across the footights, and, being too DIZZY
to regain her feet, her light apparel was
soon enveloped in flames, which made
so much progress that she was nearly
burned to death before she could be
reached. She was removed as soon as
possible, and after lingering in great
agony until the 29th, passed away. She
died at nineteen. Her mother came from
Cincinnati to her, but, under the impress
sion that she would recover, left for home
the day before she died. 1t is also said
that her husband aud child were at her
death-bed. Her remains were placed in
beautiful burial casket, and, as before
stated. we're yesterday forwarded to Gin
cinnati
For several days previous to the asci-
dent which brought about her death, she
seemed to have presentiment of some
impending evil, and appeared melancholy
and detected, evincing none of her usual
life and gayety.
Her few friends were very attentive in
her last hours, and the company at the
Metropolitan gave her a benefit that the
expenses OF her care might be paid, re-
alzing one hundred dollars for her from
the sale of tickets.
Such is a brief outline of the short but
eventful career of an unfortunate girl,
who, surrounded by other influences than
those of her early life, might to-day have
been the peer of any good, intelligent,
virtuous woman in the land, instead of
the unwept child of misfortune, sinking
into an unhonored grave.-Louisrille
Courier.

Mr. Edward Atkinson, of Boston, pub
fishes letter on the subject of the pur-
loined telegram. This telegram was sent
to him, and being purloined, was pub
lished by Butler the infamous Mr..
Atkinson set on foot an inquiry into
the manner in which Butler got hold of
it, and the search getting upon a warm
track, az employe in the telegraph office
resigned. His resignation was not ac
cepted, and Mr.. Atkinson urged the
President of the Telegraph Company to
prosecute the employe. The President
replied that it was useless. First, For
the general reason that one who would
steal a message would take false oath;
and secondly, Because on the only sim
'ilar complaint ever made to them they
did detect an operator, and sued him in
a criminal court in New York, where he
was discharged by the Judge on the gen
ersl ground that so long as a committee
Of Congress assumed the right to control
private correspondence the operator
could not be condemned. Mr.. Atkinson
adds that the Judge could not have made
this decision had he known that the
committee disowned the arbitrary act of
their chairman; and that chairman was
General Butler, very great rogue, who
would naturally prefer stealing tele-
gram to. getting it in an honest way.
Mr.. Atkinson appropriately heads his
letter with the saying, "Qui fdct per
alum .fdcit per Sc; which, freely trans
lated for the occasion, means, "What a
man steals through another he steals
himself" Richmond Dispatch.

world, where they can cultivate. But
they stay there in America to contend
with the white man for his government,
where there are thirty-four millions Of
white people to defepd their government.
Brethren, / beg you, as one who wishes
you well, come over and help cultivate
this rich soil, and by so doing we shall
gain favor with all the leading pow
ers of the earth, and particularly
with the people of the United States, who
are our friends when we get here. But,
if you stay where you are, know too
we'll what is going to become of you. The
white people of the United States are
going to rule the country, and they are
not going TO let you have anything to do
with ruling it. And they are right. /
would be just as they are if | were in
their place. / would battle against you
all as long as had the breath to draw.
Then, colored friends, come to this
country, for here we are masters, with
nobody to disturb us, with good and
cheap land, and plenty of hard money"
Now, this is rank treason-rank and
odorous as the cuticulsr exhalations of
him who uttered it. 1t advises the
happy Africans not to remain and ex-
ercise the glorious privilege of voting
carpet bsggery into places Of trust and
profit. 1t is asking the colored loyslists
of the South to leave voting to those who
occupy the official positions and whe
pocket the public punder. IL is base
effort to deprive Radicalism of those
numerous allies upon whom it depends
for assistance in It's enerous and patri-
otto labor of securing the spoils, filing
the Offices and plundering the rebellious
whites.
This dastardly attempt of a Liberian
niger to assassnate carpet-baggery will
receive from rsdicalism the contempt
which it deserves. Pass around this mig
ger. Let him be anathema maranatha.

distilled spirits, etc. The bill does not inter-
f.re with the collection Of any tax which &C
crues under existing laws before April LIST
next. Schenck proceeded to say that the
Committee had intended to present CON-
plete law covering the whole subject and not
the present special bill repeating the tax on
manufacturers. They had been urged, how
ever, from members Of the House and from
outside interests, a. thing exceedingly de-
sirable, that having determined to relieve the
manufacturers from the five per cent. tax it
should be done without waiting for a general
law. Schenck went on to give figures to
show what had been realized last year from
the tax on manufactures. All receipts from
this source amounted to nearly $780, 900.
The bill passed.
Woodward inquired whether the tax on
whisky would be reduced.
Schenck said there was no provision Of
that kind in this bill. The majority Of the
Committee had, however, decided it should
stand at 81, and the general taxation bill
would provide for ~ tax.
Banks, from the Committee on Foreign
Affairs, reported bill in regard to the rights
of citizens abroad.
After debate the House adjourned.

The SALE OF LANDS GRANTED TO RAIL
RoADs.-Following is \ copy Of Mr.. Hop
kins' bill, introduced into the United States
House Of Representatives providing for the
disposal of lands granted to companies con-
structing railways:
Be it enacted By the Senate and House of
Representatives Of tho United States of 4n,e-
rica in Congress assembled, That all lands
which may hereafter b. granted to aid in the
construction of railways shall, unless other
wise expressly provided in the act granting
the same be sold, by the State or Territory to
:, hich said grant is made, to actual settlers,

lowing terms, viz

have power to prescribe rules and regulations
for carrying this act into effect; and no per-
son shall be deemed an actnal settler who
does not furnish evidence, in such form as

ter upon, improve, and reside upon the lands

That any alternate even-numbered sections
along the line of any railway which have not
been sold or entered upon by actual settlers
within ten years from and after the survey and
location Of said railway, shall be disposed of

The SUICIDAL CAT.
A FABLE.

There was a man named Ferguson,
He lived on Chestnut street,
He had speckled Thomas ca.
That couldn't well be beat;
He'd catch more rats and mice, and sich,
Than forty cats could eat.
This cat would come into the room
And climb upon cheer,
And there he'd sit and lick itself
And purr SO awful queer,
That Ferguson would yell at him
I But still he'd purr severe.
And then he'd climb the moon-lit fence,
I And loaf around and yowl,
And spit and claw another cat
Alongside of the jowl;
And then they both would shake their tails,
And jump around and howl.
Oh, this here cat Of Ferguson's
| Was fearful then to see;
He'd yell precisely like he was
In awful agony;
You d think a first-class stomach-aehe
Had struck some small baby.
And all the mothers in the street,
Walked BY the horrid din,
Would rise right up and search their babes,
To find some worrying pin
And still this vigorous cat would keep
A hollerin' like the sin.
And as for Mr.. Ferguson,
Twas more than he could bear,
And SO he hurled his boot-jack out
Right through the midnight air;
But this vociferous Thomas cat,
Not one cent did he care.
For still he yowled and kept his fur
A standin' up on end,
And his old spine doub.in' up,
As far as it would bend,
As if his hopes of happiness
Did on his lungs depend.
But while curvin' of his spine.
And waitin' to attack
A cat upon the other fence,
There came an awful crack;
And this here speckled Thomas est
Was busted in the back.
When Ferguson came down next day
There lay his old feline,
And not life was left in him
Although he had had nine,
-" All this here comes" said Ferguson,
"Of curvia' Of his spine"
MORAL.
Nov an you men whose tender hearts
This painful tale does rack,
Just take this moral to yourselves
All Of you. white and black;
Don't ever %. like this here eat
