DEATH OF MRS. MowATr-RrrcHIE.

II was but the other day that some as
sertion was in dispute, of this lady-litte-
rateur, about English nobility of her sex
displaying the fac SMILES of their calves
among the ornaments of their grounds
and houses--the lares and peHates in the
shape of statuary. She reiterated that
such was the fact, notwithstanding the
prompt denial. We presume she had
some foundation for her assertion,
although the fashion may not have been
as general as she conceived She who in
her younger life contributed so much to,
the enjoyment of persons of taste and re-
fnement by her chaste and elegant style
of acting-who before and since her re-
tirement from the stage made so many
hours glide imperceptibly away by her
graceful pen-has gone down into the
depths of that shadow-land where beauty
and homeliness are on level, and wealth
and poverty repose side by side; where
the gifts Of genius are no longer golden,
and the silvery music of the voice is for
ever hushed. The following brief allu-
sion to her accomplishments and literary
career we find in that sterling Democratic
paper, the Pittsburg Post, of a very re-
cent date. Mrs Richie died on the 18th
Of July last, and sweeter spirit never
entered the portals ofparadise since Ewes

Anna Cora Mowatt-Ritchie, just de-
ceased, was the daughter of Samuel G. |
Ogden, New York merchant who set
tied in Bordeaux, France She was born |
in 1921, and was distinguished from in
fancy by great preeociiy of intellect as
well as by refined taste and aptitude |
for all matters connected with literature
and the drama. At an early age she
made a runaway match with James
Mowatt, New York lawyer. She ap-
Piled herself still to literary pursuits,
and after pleasure trip to Europe, her
husband having fallen into pecuniary
difficulties, she addressed herself to the
lecture and reading platform. In 1916
she formally adopted the stage as a pro-
fession, and made her debut in the char
scter of Pauline Deschapelles, and re-
NAMED for many years deserved favor
tie both Of the English and American
stage. Her range of characters included
he higher genteel comedy, and her sue
,ess in London led to a good deal of
critical controversy on her style and
merits as representative American
voman. In 1854 she retired from the
,tage and married Ar. w. f. Richie, of
Richmond Virginia. She wrote novel
,alled the Fortune Hunter" the fvs
.ct play Of " Fashion" " Armand" and
yarious other works, but her best was her
,wn autobiography. She was very
agreeable writer, and was an active cor
respondent and contributor TO magazines

WEEKLY INDEX"

This Is tbs present title of the paper
that was the Humboldt Headlight 1t
has passed into the hands Of T. Il,
Baker, recently of the Columbus Miss }
Index, and j. L. Ferguson. His old
paper says Of Mr.. Baker; II talent and
indomitable energy can do anything, orr
quandom partner will make the Index
one of the liyeliest and most prosperous
papers in Tennessee" The FIRST num-
Der displays both these qualities, and
gives ample promise that ais well. 7
Arrangements have been made with Miss
Nelly Marshall for sustained story,
entitled The Hand Of Fate, which the
editors say, Is Of thrilling interest,
and which will be commenced la tlls
second number. The salutatory is dig
ni6ed and well written; its politics Of
the right stamp We annex It's main
feature, with the addition that the ladies'
is ~ white mans paper" The editor
says
1t may not be amiss TO say TO the old
patrons Of the paper that, under the
present management, its politics will not
be materially changed. As Douglas
Democrat we shared, in common with
our old Wing friends, certain amount
Of prejudice against what is known as
the old secession Democracy; but when
we saw that proud old party buckle on
her armor and take her place in the ger
ried ranks Of war, shoulder to shoulder
with old Wings; sacrifice everything
save honor for principles that they
deemed correct, and since the war, work
with untiring zeal for a restoration Of
the government 10 the principles of its
foouders, we freely forgot and forgave
all past differences, and stand ready,
to-day and forever, to rally with them in
any contest that looks TO the utter pOlit-
ical humiliation of the Radical party as
a party-the upheaving, root and branch,
Of the fungus ideas that have been
grated into our body polite We have
no compromise 10 make with Radical
ism in any way, shape or form, who Is
affected by the foul smell Of mongrelism

THE GOODE MURDER.
Arrest OF the Supposed Fiend I'm In
diana-He PASSES Through this
city in Charge of a sheriff.

The readers of the LEpoRR win no
doubt remember the particulars and in
cidents regarding the murder of the
Goode family, at Fayorite Island, some
sixty miles below this city some months
since, the particulars Of which were
given in these columns at the time The
officers have been on the alert ever since,
and did at last secure the man supposed
TO be the perpetrator of the horrible
crime in the following manner: Some
ten days since the Sheriff Of Tunica
county, Mississippi, received information
from Indiana that a man answering to
the description Of the Goode murderer
had been arrested in the southwestern
portion Of the State, and confined in
Jail for horse-stealing, Sheriff Beloher,
Of the county named, arming him
self with a requisition for the
prisoner, started for Indiana, where
he arrived in due time, and pre-
scented his requisition on the day set Tor
the trial The Indiana officers, fur some
reason, would or could not recognize the
requisition, leaving Sheriff Belcher the
alternative Of returning without the pris-
oner or securing him by strategy The
latter course was decided upon, and With
this view the Shorif set his wilsat work.
He then, through the gentleman from
whom the horse had been stolen, secured
the release Of the prisoner on $500 bail.
Sheriff Belcher drawing a dram on Gov
ernor Alcorn, and the same being in
dorsed by the party from whom the horse
was stolen. On the prisoners release
he was met At the door Of the jail by the
waichfnl sheriff, Who then clapped hand
cuffs upon him. put him in q carriage
into which he quickly jumped, and was
driven forty miles TO the nearest railroad
station, from which point they came

morning when he was arrested consie
