police of more than 10000 men.
This monstrous attempt to invade
the States, and control the elections by
federal agents and the presence of
bayonets, is the most daring of the
many acts of despotism yet ventured
by the party in power. The object is
not only to seize the polls in the
Southern States, but to apply this
desperate expedient to New York and
Pennsylvania, W h i C Ii are regarded
likely to defeat Grant. The Demo-
Gratis in the House promptly deter
mined to oppse the conspiracy by the
use of every parliamentary right, and
they gained victory by compelling
an adjournment on Saturday night,
after sending the bill to Il conference
committee, and reservipg tn e r
strength, if required, for the final test
to-day.
The Democrats repeatedly offered
to pass the appropriation bill as it
stood, with many Objectionable pro-
visions, if this obnoxious amendment
was stricken out. The responsibility
now rests with the Senate. If the
spirit of faction still dominates there,
and the majority are willing to take
the consequences of preventing the ap-
preparation, be it SO. The bill could
be lost without the least injury, since
millions of dollars are covered in the
proposed expenditures, which will

A DEAD BELLE.


A lady writer in the Cincinnati
Chronicle says: Some years ago
when visiting Boston. heard much
of Miss Fannie Carter, who was call
ed the Belle of the Hub, albeit lit
tie SNOWY and fast for that latitude.
Her portrait was on exhibition, and
most of the younger portion of the
community went to see it. She was
certainly very beautiful woman,
and was reported to be as sprightly
as beautiful, and to sing divinely.
Subsequently she married Mr.. Lor-
lizard, son or nephew of the rich to-
bacconist of New York, and went
with him to Europe. Next we hear
of her at the Tuileries, completing
by her voice the conquest of the EN-
peror, which she had already made
by her beauty. Then it flashed over
the world, and society in Europe and
America was startled by the an
nouncement that the beautiful Ameri-
can had done what none but an Amer
lean woman would have dared to do.
Seeking to rival Eugenie and the
Princess Metternich, she had appear
ed at court ball, her head surround
ed by halo of light, proceeding
from tiny gets of gas; the reservoir
was hidden under the masses of hair
which she wore.
MIR. LorilIaId died, and his widow
married Mr.. Ronalds. 1t was not
happy union, and they separated.
She lived much abroad, in Germany,
and for a time in Tunis, where she
went for her health. She held quite
little court there, being o friend
and favorite of the Bey of Tunis.
Happening in an artists studio one
day in New York, I was attracted by
the criticism of lady, who stood
with her back to me, on picture we
had gone there to see. She pointed
out its beauties, found fault with the
coloring and the light in which it was
placed, and it was all done with such
apparent knowldge. and in SO assur-
ed manner, that asked who the la
dy was. She was Mrs. Ronalds, and
the picture was q portrait of herself.
Now she is dead, after short, bril-
liant, and checkered career. She
died recently of consumption at the
Isle OF Wight.

THE LAST CUBAN HORROR.
The Fieudish Murder of tfse Hoy
ish students. The Spanish
Governor rIstacknsaiiing tine Pa
rents OF the Victims.

Havana, Dec. 6th.-Since the foul
murder of the eight students on the
9th ult., the city has been more qui-
ct than was TO be expected. Very
mlny Spaniards are leaving the Is
land In all haste. am credibly in
formed that to Spaniards alone over
100 passports were issued on the two
days following the execution, and
tnat among the applicants for per-
mission to leave the Island were over
forty students. The university is
closed, and very few scholars attend
the institute.
The thirty-four students condemn
ed to the chain-gang are now set to
work in the stone quarries outside
the city They go out every morn
ing at six O'Clock and return at six in
the evening. Their families are al
lowed to see them only between IL A.
n and 2 P. N. on Sundays, and then
they are separated by double iron
grating. The boys are in convict's
dress and heavily ironed. Three of
them are already in the hospital, and
it is physically impossible for such
young and delicate lads long to re-
sist the slow torture to which they
are condemned. No food is allowed
to be conveyed to them, and they
must put up with prison fare.
Among them are sons of the very
wealthiest men-mostly Spaniards-
of the island. Don Salvador Baro,
one of the millionaires of Matanzas,
has son among them. III, father
of another Is Labordie. Colonel, or
rather who was Colonel, of the vol
unteers, for he, as well as several
other officers, have resigned. Tho
father of another is Spanish Briga-
der General in active seiv vice against
the patriots. The young American,
Smith, SON of amerchant of Carde-
mas, who was set at liberty, has been
taken by his uncle to Porto Rico.
1t is now universally conceded here
that the blame of the whole matter
attaches to the Governor, Lopez
Roberts. He had heard the report
of the proclamation of Castanon's
tomb some days before it got bruited
about, and endeavored to make mon
ey out of it. It is publicly stated
here that he offered to Alonzo Alva-
rez de La Campo to hush the matter
up if he would pay him $500. .00O.-
De la Campo, who is an ultra Span
lard, and an officer of volunteers,
laughed at the idea of any Spaniards
daring to punish child of his. and
took his SON himself to the palace in
spite of his wife's urgent remon-
strances. His son, and his only SON
rat that, was shot.

word as if weighing their meaning,
for he was profoundly pcrplexed.
Yes, my dear, continued Jenny

And then Jenny, with sparkling
eyes and in her happiest mood, told
him how that her parents had died
when she was quite young and left her
penniless, and To the care OF her aunt
who had adopted her, aud that forty
years before wealthy uncle in Eng.
land--her fathers brother-had died
leaving her his large property,
amounting to seventy-tive thousand
dollars, and that, as there was SO
much counting heiresses for their
money, she had resolved TO keep the
matter a secret, and pass among peo.
as dependent for support upon her
own exertIons from day to day, SO
that if she was wooed at all, il Nigh.

and that for this reason she had
served an apprenticeship in a miIlioner's
shop.

amazed at a revelation from Jennys
lips so astonishing and unexpected
and which increased, If possible, the
esteem he already had for her. who
could conceive so noble a project and
so effectually carry it out.
"No, George, it is no dream, bat 4
pleasing reality. You know / said
Jenny would show her value yet -

value aside from that is not for me 20
speak. And now,'" said she, looking
canfdingly into the face of him whose
love she priced higher than all treas
ures, Jenny entrnsts TO you herself
and her fortune without any fears for
their fututurc safe keeping"
Georges income was now amply
sufficient for his and Jenny's wants
but being one who abhorred idleness,
he in few days opened wholesale
grocery in the city, and was soon en-
gagged in an extensive and fourishing
businesses.

"A FINE and just remark lately
made. as we are told, by the Grown
Prince of Prussia is worth repeating
"Some of us" be said, ''may not
admire or love Republicanism. but
it is as impossible to hate Nature
herself" This is an admission of
the normal equity of Democratic
principles of government. Nations
may not entirely or at all secure the
blessings of self-government; fortune
may deny it to them as it sometimes
denies well-rounded career to indi-
viduals; experiments may turn out
failures, but the truth of the princi-
pie remains unchalenged by honest
thinkers, while suffering man contin-
ues to dream of it if only as an inn
practicable ideality.

TURNING TO SroNE.-The Houston
(Minn.) Democrat confirms the state
ment that a man at Spring Grove is
turning into stone. His name IS
Harmon Silverson. He is complete
ly petriied in all his limbs and body
the only exception being'a portion
about the mouth, throat and ewes.
He has good appetite, eats and
prays day and night for the Lord to
deliver him from his terrible afffic-
ton. He is perfectly helpless. The
process of petri6cation commenced
some time last spring in his feet and
knees. since which me it has gradu-
ally Increased.

TWEED AND MURPHY.-Tweed is
doomed. Mr.. O'Connor is after him,
and he will probably land in the peni-
tentiary. Democrats are determined
that he shall be made to disgorge, and
also that he shall be punished for his
crimes. This is the way the Democ-
racy treats scoundrels in its ranks.
Mr.. Thomas Murphy has been Mr..
Tweed's partner for years-Greeley
so charges and proves. A greater
public robber never lived than Tom
Murphy, Mr.. Grants Collector of
Customs in New York. Yet Mr..
Grant refuses to remove this bad and
corrupt man at the request of the best
men In the nation. And this is the
way Grant radicals treat scoundrels
in their ranks.

BABY FARM1NG.-An excellent Act of Parliment framed for the better protec- tion of infant life will come into operation in Great Britain on the first of November. The object of the new law is to guard against the iniquitous system of " baby farming" The act states that the houses retaining or receiving for hire two or more infants, for the purpose of nursing, are to be registered. The age of an infant is under one year. The local authority of the place is to keep the register and may refuse to register unless satisfied that the place is suitable or the applicant of good character. A person so registered is to keep register of all infants received, and to produce the same when required. A local authority, for serious neglect, or when pel son is incapable of providing proper food and attention, or if the house is unfit, may strike tho house and name of the register. An inquest is to be held on an infant dying in registered house unless medical certificate is produced ,' the coroner. The punishment for an of: fense under the act is not to exceed six months, with or without hard labor, or fine of twenty-five dollars. Fines anC penalties recovered are to go to the lOca rates. The statute extends to the United Kingdom, and the local authorities" are specified. These are stringent rules. bu the abuse of baby farming had in Eng land become 80 unbearable that some thing of the kind was imperatively de lnanded. In the metropolis the Metro politan Board of works is the loca authority, and in the city of London th' common council.

A WHOLESOME FRIGHT.-A vener- able minister adopted a shrewd and successful plan to abate the nuisance ofneighbor,' hens. One neighbor and himself kept their hens shut up, so as not to annoy others. The other neigh hor, though often expostulated with, would let his run at large and they made sad work in the garden of the minister and the other neighbor, One day the man who kept his hens shut up came to the minister in great trouble, saying, "Mr. H., I really do not know what to do; I have just put my garden all in fine order, and neigh bor -'s hens have scratched the beds all up, and undone all my work. l don't want to make trouble in the ighborhoOd, out what can ] do ? The venerable minister immediately said, "Look here I have two heH- ! wish to kill. I will let them out anu they will go right into your garden You shoot them. You may throw them over if you have mind to /; but you shoot them." He went home The hens were let out and were soon in his garden, and he shot them. The news flew through the neighborhooC that the man had shot the ministers hens. The other neighbor heard Q it, and said to himself, "If he vii shoot the minister hens he vii mine," and at once shut them up anC the annoyance ceased.

 A still small sound that passeth by. For who can love and then forget2
 But death is sleep; and somewhere yet Love's morn will rise and ever set Therefore close up my coffin :; let
