ARMED NEGROES IN THE SOUTH
Nine out ofevery ten of the negroes

EARNED and equipped as the Radicals

some immense knives, some pistols Of
every pattern, while, by far the larger
number carry at a shoulder" or in q
careless and indifferent manner, the
regular Government musket, and
many Of them with n fixed bayoBet
Why the negroes arc thus armed the
whites know not. There is certainly
no cause for these hostile acts on The
part of the law-abiding whites. These
are carried about with the negroes
wherever they go, night and day.
IL is q common occurrence 10 hear
firing all hours of the night in all parts
Of the city. Bullets have entered
several private residences within tho
past few days, going in close proximity
to the sleeping inmates Notwith-
standing oil such positive violations Of

by the military or civil authorities, 30

THE BoURBoNs IN ITALY.
The late Bourbon dynasties of the
Kiagdom Of Naples and the duchies
OF Parma and Piacenza, were founded

OF "a eighteenth century. They were

Napoleon, but after his downfall the
Bourbons were restored to the King.

continued to govern till the revolution
of 1860 drove Francis II, to Gmta as
a refuge. This prince still lives, an
exile and murderer, and it does not
seem probable that he will ever re-
cover his lost possessions. The Bonr-
bons Of Parma and Piacenza lost those
duchies in 1859, which were annexed
to Sardinia, and now form part Of
the Kingdom Of Italy.

Philip, Duke Orleans, tho younger
brother of Louis XIV. From him

played so remarkable part in the first
French Revolution as Citizen Egalite,
and met so tragical a fate, perishing
by the guilotine in 1898. Louis Phil.
ippe, chosen King Of the French in the
Revolution of July, 1889, was the son
of Egalite; and the Count of Paris,
grandson OF Louis Philippe, is the
present representative of the Orleans
branch Of the Bourbon family. 1t
will be remembered that this prince
and bis younger brother, the Duke of
Chartrcs, were with our army some

the familiar proverb. There is sort
OF fatal profusion in their habits
Women are accused very unfairly of
being over-extravagant. As rule.
men are far more so, and the account
against them is principally due to
those who iriticr everything they gain
or sell in numbcrless and namclcss
triilcs. A woman has natural title
10 being well clad, to being indeed
clad so as to make the most Of her
appearance. She has a sense for lew

stitie a genuine and reasonable in.
stinct. But man who parts with a
considerable portion of his income in

his tailor, and who really seems to
have only used his brains upon the
patterns Of neokties, is one Of the most
