Vinot the friend of the incendiary Gen
eral, Bergeret On two occasions at
least she donned military uniform, and
il is alleged that, having taken part
in review in the Champ de Mars, she
received the soubriquet of La Colonelle
Vinot. She also shared in the fighting
behind barricade in the Boulevard
Voltaire. She had herself photographed
once in the costume Of cantiniere, in
which capacity she had been attached to
the One Hundred and Seventieth battal.
ion, and the other time in that of a sailor.
The most serious part, however, OF the
charge against her related to the massa-
ere in the Rue Haxo. A woman, dressed
as sailor, was among the escert, and on
the arrival of the hostages at the lookup
she stationed herself at the door and
pushed in any victim who showed any
repugnance at entering. One OF them
was an aged priest, to whom she gave a
push, exclaiming, No pity for priests.
She herself then passed in, and the hos
tages we're Immediately massacred. An
eye witness of the scene, a woman named
Stefaui, positively identified the prisoner
as the pseudo sailor The President and
the Court ordered the clerk to read the
law against perjury, in order, as he ex-
planned, not to frighten the witness, but
to impress on her the importance of her
evidence. She adhered to her statement,
but other persons collected from the Rue
Haxo declared themselves unable to
identify the prisoner. Under these cir
cumstances, majority of the Court ac-
Quilted her Of this charge, but she wss
convicted of bearing arms in the insur-
rection, and was sentenced to transpor-
tation without hard labor.

ADresden Resort.

A correspondent of the Jewish Mes
senger says: Dresden particularly
prides itself on the Bruhl Terrace, which
is about one-qusrter of mile in length,
and fronts the Nbe. A broad fight oi
steps, reminding one Of the Terrace in
Central Park, leads to this favorite prom
enade, which is planted with trees. Here
the little world of Dresden congregate.
Old men and women, nurses and babies,
children and soldiers, young misses and
youth, lovers aud dogs, are to be daily
encountered. Some cafes are on the
Terrace, and here one may sip his tea
or coffee, drink his beer or wine, and
watch the passing crowd. The view is
inspiriting. In front is the narrow Elbe,
and a number of infantile steamboats,
are plying on the river. Below are
the two bridges with the hurrying
streams Of vehicles aud people. Above
the Elbe loses itself in the gathering
evening mist, aud soon bank and river
fade away in the twilight. AT eight in
the evening the cafes become crowded,
aud you can see German outdoor life at
its best, while from within the cafe
strains Of music are heard. And here
YOU may view the throng, the happy
faces, the dresses, the promenaders
among the trees--whieh are vastly more
sensible than was Tennyson's Talking
Oak" and do not tell the secrets that
they hear-until the moon has risen
high ia the heaven and has clad river,
bridges, trees, hills, paths and groups
of contented people in its tender light;
1t is an hour for laughing lovers and
barking dogs"

AQueer sort of a Contest

From the Stanford (Ky.) Journal.
Early on Sunday morning a gentleman
walked out, probably for the purpose of
sailing his sheep. After few vigorous
calls the flock gathered around him, and
clamored as usual for their allowance.
One old black ram, however, seemed to
have something on his mind, and stood
aloof. The owner, seeking to conciliate
him, approached and laid his hand upon
his head. This the ram resented with a
furious charge, which was repeated until
the owner took to fight But he was
too far from the fence, and the enemy
literally hang upon his rear with perse-
vering obstinacy. A change OF front
was resolved upon and Immediately e.
fected, but still the battery was played with
undiminished fervor. Soon the parties
clinched, and after a vigorous scuffie they
came to the ground. The ram could now
do nothing, but his fleece protected his
ribs from the furious blows of his ad-
versary. Both seemed now pretty nearly
exhausted. The man was on top, and
seizing a stone which lay near, COM
menced pounding the head of the sheep.
OF course the rock was sooa reduced to
fragments, but the man, having formerly
driven hogs, thought of the plan of
throwing dirt in the eyes of the ram, and
incontinently filed his optics with clay,
rubbing it in. He then arose to enjoy
the success Of his ruse; but the ram
"riz," too. and pansing a single moment,
applied a knee to either eye, and re-
newed the combat. And now the fight
was more desperate than before, and vic
tory seemed to perch above the sheep
But,as he put all his power into one final
blow, his almost fainting antagonist sue.
ceeded in avoiding the shock and catch
ing the ram by the tail; and now the
tide of victory turned. A succession of
furious kicks, administered a posteriora
decided the contest. The ram cried
foul play, but the adversary fought for
conquest. At length the tail hold
slipped, and both parties fed in oppo-
site directions. They will probably
" fpht another daY."

Sailing up the Ruff.
Stanley's Zanzibar Letter. October 81, in New
York Herlad.

Stanley's Zanzibar Letter, October 2l, in New
York Herlad.I
Miehweh is the name of a small
colony of villages and district which
may extend about four miles along the
northern bank of the Ruff. The in
habitants cultivate rice fields, the pro
ducts of which they exchange with the
Banians of Kikunia and Pemba Bag
amoyo, etc., for cotton, cloth and spice
In order to illustrate the disposition oi
the natives, l will describe an incident
which occurred near an island called
Surveni, opposite Miehweh. A large
flock of birds, king6shers and waydahs
were shot at with a rifle ball, which
piercing the flock, was seen to ricochet
considerable distance beyond along
the surface of the river. After we had
proceeded mile, we detected several
canoes close to the Miehweh shore, try
ing to outstrip us. Four continued their
way, while one canoe separated from the
Others, which, taking advantage Of dead
water along the lee of some islets, was
soon able to overtake US.
One of our guides hailed the solitary
canoeman and asked him what he want
ed. He answered that he had come to
inquire who we we're, and for what pur'
pose we came to the Ruff, and why we
fred bullets, te the imminent risk Of
people fishing in the river. His reply
and questions were given with that force
volubility and rasping harshness | re-
membered so we'll we're the characteris
tics of the voices of the Wagogo when
angered.
The guide replied mildly that we had
come to "see, that's all-Tembea tou.
"To see2 See what2"
To see the river"
What for2
ITO see. Why? God knowsl The
white men do such strange things. They
put it down in book, and that is oil |

Huh How far do they intend to
go2"
"As far as there is plenty Of water
for the boat in the Rufji."
Inside?
" Yes, inside"
Huh The Ruff extends far
many days journey-and there is al
ways water in the Rufji.'
"The white men intend to 60 and see
for themselves how far there is plenty OF
water"
"How much do they intend to give
for shooting on the river2
Nothing.
The breeze came down over the tops
of the trees, bellied the sails out full
and large and the Wave passed by the
prurient native irresistibly.
