BOYS AND THEIR MOTHERS.

"Of all the love affairs in the world none
can surpass the true love of a big boy
for his mother 1t is pure and noble
honorable in the highest degree to both.
| do not mean merely a dutiful atfec-
ton, mean a love which makes boy
gallant and courteous TO his mother,
saying to everybody plainly that he is
fairly in love with her. And | never
knew a boy TO turn ont bad, who be
gan by falling in love with his mother.
Any man may fall in love with fresh
faced girl, and the man who is gallant
with the girl, may cruelty neglect the
worn and weary wife. But the boy
who is lover to his mother in her mid
die age is a true knight, who will love
his wife as much in the sear-leaved au-
tumn as he didin the daisiedspring-time.

Globe:
New ORLEANS. August Humorous
colored Republicans are daily leaving this
city to attend the meeting at Saratoga
Springs, where they expect to issue an
address denunciatory of the conservative
frauds in the late Louisiana elections. Gu
rious speculations are INDUCED as to wha.
action will be taken in regard te the con
servatives who are now unitcators.
Prominent cOlored Indicators called 20
day on Governor Kellogg, assuring the
latter Of their support to the executive, but
his friends place no reliance On these prom
ises, regarding them as mere efforts to con.
ceal the real hostile intentions Of the unfit
Gators.
Policeman William Mills was today ar
rested on a charge of numbering citizen
two nights since. This action creates sur.
prise, as the police force under Badger
Lawler, and other competent officers, is re-
garded as a model Of discipline.

vigilant attention Of Acting Collector Philip

The Massacre at A!cOy,
A CORRESPONDENTS writing about the re

A correspondent, writing abou: the recent
massacre at Alcoy, says:
The women played conspicuous part in
the massacre, as they did in Paris during
the Commune. Nothing which occurred IN
Paris, even in the last freDzied agony of
desperation and batfied fury. at all ap-
proaches this brutal massacre. When the
Minister of Foreign Affairs was asked in
the COrtes for a statement of what really
happened, he declared that for the honor of
the chamber, of the country and of the re-
public, he was obliged to refrain from men
t,oning all that happened. According to
his account. the insurrection got up by the
lnternatlOnalists commenced in a strike, or
series OF. strikes The wOrkmen demanded
IL large rise in their wages, as much as fifty
per cent, and when it was refused, left their
work and assumed a very threatening a ii
tude, interfering everywhere with wO k.
and spreading alarm among the peaceful
lnhabltants, especially those belnn ing to
:he well-to-do classes, and dnp'a ding the
.signation of the town Cow. and the
substitution of council OF their own nomi-
ration.
This demand the mayor of Alcoy. Senor
Augustine AlbOrs, refused, and was given
three hours to change his MUD. He took
possession OF the town ball, and, with few

ants bursting the doors. and then followed
a scene which the minister declared it was
Impossible for him to describe. The de
tenders of the town hall. after being sub
jected to other horrible insults and injuries,
were stripped naked and held up from the
balcony in full view of the bowling mob
below. Their names were called out one
by one and the mob was asked whether it
would have them dead or alive.
According to the answer. either their

Long Branch Stables.

Correspondence of the New York T.ihune.1
First take the Presidents stables. And
here let me say that some o! the accounts
from Long Branch, portraying tae extent
and value of the Presidents horses and
carriages have been very much exagge-
rated There are probably twenty stables
worth more than his Il here use stable in
the horseman's sense, meaning the horses)
now at the Branch. He has four bays and
pair of colts. One team of bays, driven
to Mrs. Grants landau, is com ,rosed OF Gin
cinnati and Egypt-One Of which was Cen
eral Grants war horse, and the other he
has owned ever since he has been IN Wash
ington. Both horses are getting quite old,
although they are yet good steppers. The
other pair of bays are also driven to Mrs
Grants carriage, and also TO iigh-seated
phaeton. Sometimes they are driven four
in-hand to the heavy landau. The only
thing that would attrac. attention to this
team is the white lines and check strap.
The carriages of the President are four
in Eumher, and are az unOstentatious as
any gentleman .coult: sish. The family
Grant became President. It is substantial
but not snowy. The high phaeton or drag
is the same in which the owner drove from
his street residence in Washington to the
Capitol when he frs: took the oath of office.
1t is, therefore, well worn. but is yet very
respectable carriage, and that is all. He
has also good piano-box buggy, no better
than hundred farmers have within twenty
miles of New York. To this the President
drives his pair of colts, which are of excel
lent action and speed. This ;s the best
team he owns. In addition TO these car
riages, Miss Grant has a one horse basket
pbaeton, to which she sometimes drives
Cincinnati, and sometimes pair of black
ponies. General Grant never drives out in
the family carriage, but instead Prefers his
phaeton or ligh. buggy. The statement Is
in simple fairness due to correct an unjust
prejudice on the part of a portion Of the

A Strange River.
The Palatka iFlorida, Herald saws

The Palatka lFloridaj Herald says:
st. Johns river is very remarkable. 1t is
separated from the ocean throughout it's
entire length by a strip Of land not over
forty miles in width. Its banks are low;
the soil. when examined, is found to con-
tain very little silica, being composed
mainly of minute shells. At elevated
places along the banks the coqu,oea, spe-
cies Of she'll rock can be seen. Wherever
this is found the soil is very fertile, and
particularly favorable to the growth of the
orange. Live oaks tower to the skies, and
their branches spreading some fifty or sixty
fee, each wa-. covered with d,aDery OF
solemn moss, ana rVPress- bay, gum, pal
me,to, ami magnoii, frees, With the bea1ti-
tGl palm with crested crown standing like a
sentinel along its shores, and orange trees
bearing from 800 TO 1000 splendid oranges
each, make a man think he is in the land of
fable; yet this is all sober fact.
