The Philadelphia Press thinks that the
new revolutionary Government of the
Cuban insurgents ought to be Immediately
recognized. II says;
"Now the Government is in shape
comprehensive TO the Saxon mind 1t
has executive and legislative departments
and officers each discharging their especial
functions through their own wcll-defned
channels. Now it can treat with foreign
Powers, demand admission into the family
Of nations, issue bonds, letters Of marque,
emit money and perform generally all the
acts which constitute and prove sovereign
ty."
Commenting on this the New York
Times says;
We remember a time when the South
ern Confederacy had Government, and
officers in each department "discharging
their especial functions through their own
well-defined channels, and capable of
doing all the things enumerated above, -
making war with good deal of vigor, and
insisting on recognition because it was
performing all the acts which constitute
and prove sovereignty" Yet our Gov
ernment gave other nations to understand
that its recognition by other Powers would
be regarded and represented by US as
an act of war. Where is the radical
difference between this case and that?

LOOKING BACK.

Have you forgotten the breezy downs,
Where the lights aud shadows play
An the purple haze of the distant hills,
Lying westward far away?
How the tinkling chime of the sheepNbells
came
Der the slopes of the thymy turf?
And the wind in the forest trees below
Made sound like ocean surf?
Have you forgotten the winding road,
All bathed in the dreamy light,
That shines on an autumn afternoon,
When the days are calm and brightP
When the aorid richness of summers glow
Had faded from earth and sky;
And the year grew old with gracious smile,
Like saint prepared to die
Have you forgotten the vine-wreathed
porch
Of the little cottage door?
And the palmy days of your happy youth
The days that returh no more?
When the rustling leaves of the garden
flowers
We're hushed b the moonbeam'a spell,
And you fingered to whisper those parting
words.
That have remembered well ?
Have you forgotten ? L still believe
You think of that pleasant past;
And your heart turns back to the quiet
scenes,
Unchanged since you saw them last
God grant that the close OF your restless
life
Grow calm ere its wanderings cease:
And the better feelings OF earlier years
Return like the voice of peace.

The Princes remained as sponsors by
the side of the new knight until the com

pressed TO the Prince Of Wales the
pleasure he felt in receiving his Royal

The Prince then took the customary

THE MILD WINrER-TERRIFORiAL
WEATHER

correspondent, resident in COlum-
bia county. Montana, writes as fellows:
1.-THE oldest and most observing Of
our inhabitants say that they never saw
such a winter. Its distinguishing char
aeteristics are evenness and nildness Of
temperature and the perfection Of the IA
cilities for intercourse. Sleighing never
was better, never so continuously good
sixty DAYS of the very best-and some
OF these so mild as to come as near as
winter possibly can to the gratifying Of
the wish sometimes expressed by chill
dren that they might have sleighsriding
in summer. Snow fell Dec. to the
depth of twelve or fourteen inches, on
ground thoroughly frozen, and as the
track became a little worn, other slight
instruments would wholly repair it,
and so the month passed off delightfully."-.
Again the snow fell on the LIST Of January
with singular adaptation to human COM
fort. On the ilth was our January
thaw, and the prospect for some hours
was that sleighing would soon end. Rain
fell in torrents for time, but during the
night hail mingled with rain, snow and
sleet, and on the morning Of the Eth,
those who had a taste for it, might visit
any part of the country on skates; and
this hard surface continued until yester-
day, the 18th when the sun was rather
severe upon it."
The Montana Democrat says that
two-t thirds Of the winter season has
elapsed there without afording anything
| like severe winter weather. They are
enjoying weather which would do ample
| Justice to the beasted beauty Of far ltaN
| ly's cline. Days are magnificent, the
nights gorgeous. There is barely enough
of +" Jack Frost's" coDgsaling presence 10
afford common skating amusement.
Bears, wolves, beaver, otter, mink, musk
rats and other deniZens Of the moun>
tains, have smiled in derision and deemed
it unnecessary to line their winter quar-
tiers with moss, etc.

Murder Ofa PedIar.

Oar Geographic dispatches yesterday re-
ferred briefly to the murder Of pedlar in
McNairy county. The Jackson Tfib'rs
contains the following additional par
tieulaTs:
Some time during the week, strolli5g
pe6Isr, to US unknown, was killed 10 the
northwestern portion Of the county, under
circumstances that show he was deIibei-
ately waylaid and shot by boy, fourteen
years old, whose name is Quill Names.
The pedlar was walking along the rosd
and Names had been seen lettering along
his line of travel by a respectable citizen
only few minutes before the fatal deed was
committed. The citizen alluded to noticed
that Names was armed with pistol, and,
We believe, states that be heard the report
of the same which ended the pedlar's
career. Names attempted to escape, and
signaled the train on the Mobile road
at Browns station on the night sub
sequent to the murder. The train took
him abroad, but he was pursued and car
tured at Grand Junction. He had about
his person some SIS at the time Of his aP--
| prehension. Names has been implicated

A TERRIBLE AND BLOODY
TRAGEDY.

Three Young Men shoot aud KHI
Each Other Instantly, ut Mariana,
Arkansas-The PrOvOeaffOa Most
Trivial
One Of the most painful and tragic
events that ever trsnspired in Arkansas
occurred on Thursday last, at Mariana.
q village in Phillips county, twenty FIVE
miles northwest Of Helena. The actors
in this bloody tragedy were all young
men of good standing and excellent char
acter, men Of the very best stamp, brave.
generous, and in the very hsyday Of
youthful manhood, and their sudden and
terrible dissolution has not only shrouded
three homes in dismal mourning, but cast
a gloom over the whole county.
The particulars Of this terrible event,
as far as we have been able to gather
them from parties living near Mariana,
are briefly these 1t seems that on
Thursday Of last week, while Mr.. Tom.
Freeman was driving wagon and team
in the direction Of Mariana, he was ac-
eosted by Mr.. Tom Slaughter, Of Missis-
sippi, who, together with his cousin, Mr..
Arthur Slaughter, was riding on horse
back in the same direction. The remark
made by the first Mr.. Slaughter was
something to the effect that, che wa
id glad they could at least afford one
white driver in Arkansas p Mr.. Free
man, it Is alleged, being rather deaf in
terpreted this remark as an insult, and
bitterly cursed the young man. They
or one of them, remarking that it was ali
right, said they would see him in Mari
ana. Upon the arrival Of the wagon at
Mariana, Tom Slaughter ordered Free,
man to dismount, drawing pistol at the
time, which it is supposed, was accidentally
discharged, wounding Freeman IN the
eight leg. Immediately upon this Free
man fred and instantly killed Tom
Slaughter, the ball passing through his
body in the region of the heart. Mr..
Arthur Slaughter being present, leveled
his pistol and fired upon Freeman, shoot
ing him through the head, not, however,
before Freeman had simultaneously
fred, MORALLY wounding Arthur Slaugh-
ter, who died instantly. Thus, in few
minutes, three brave young fellows were
sent to their long account, without warn
ing, and from a trifing cause. Mr.. Ar
thur Slaughter's father, Capt. H. P.
Slaughter, is prominent citizen of the
county, and was a member of the Legis~
Iature in 1861. = Memphis ApG~
