W AsHINGTsr, April 29-Judge William
ID. Kelley of Pennsy Nania returned rom
six weeks tour in the South to-daT. and
bears most ctnphathc testimony against the
Southern policy Of his own partT in the
last Congress. when asked tonight what
hc thought OF the political condition al
the South. he used these words ;. 1.-The
vote | most regret. during my NDurtecn
wears service in Congress. is that which
east last winter In favor of the Force bill. =
He further said that so far as his observa-
ton Went, during his extended tour. there
was no more noces Sity for the use of Fed
eral military force than there r. in Penn
sylvania or Ohio. He talked with Con-
federaie soldiers, with Northern men, ne
groes. earpet-baggers and travellers, and
he was surprised at the good feeling ex-
isting. lie said he should hereafter take
little stock in Southern outrages. especial

sections he visited. He gave an example
of the feeling in the South by relatiuss
what he himself saw in Augusta. beiny
himself unknown. He happened TO be in
that city on the day chosen for decorating
the graves of the Confederate dead. He
ren.sincd and observed closely the pro-
ceedings. A long procession marched
through the city with engines. ciyic or
CARNATIONS, etc. ii being treated as \ gem
eral holiday. Judge Kelley observed the
significant fact, that while men and wo-
men were gathered for the purpose ofpay-
ing tribute to the memory Of the dead
Confederate soldiers, the principal music
on the occasion was furnished by the band
belonging TO regular United States in
fantry regiment stationed I'm the vicinity.
There were no tsunts. no insults. no COM
plants, no appearance of ill-feeling any
where visible. While absent Judge Kelley
spent from two days TO week in each of
the following cities, stopping frequently
AT places OF less conse quence, viz. Rich
mond. Charleston, Columbia, Savannah,
Atlanta. Augusta and Aiken.
The most of his time was spent In Florida
He says so far as he saw-and he vent
with his eyes and ears open-there was no
feeling OF fear or distrust on the part OF
the colored people, and he could not for
the lite of him see what use there was for
force bills. He was very glad to have
made the trip. for il has enabled him 10

A Girls Revenge.

singular story OF jealousy and re-
venge comes from Sicily. A beautiful
young girl, named Florina. who was the
belle of a travelling circus. in which she
figured as the lion-tamer, had been for
some time receiving the attentions of an
athlete belonging to the same troupe. By
some means she learned that he was not
faithful to her. but had another lady-love.
No signs, however. of her painful discov-
cry We're allowed to escape. She still
smiled sweetlv upon him. In her own
bosom she planned a terrible revenge.
One evening when the performance had
been unusually brilliant-after Florina
had whipped the lions and forced them to
lie at her ieet-she called her recreant lover
aside and said 10 him:
do you still love me?"
always he answered.
"Do you know that should die if you
should devote yourself to another wo-
man -
What an idea" responded the young
man.
But | should first kill you" said Flo
rina.
"And how would you do thaty'
THUS :" cried the girl. at the same in
slant pushing him violently into the cage
of the lions.
They attacked the unfortunate man at
once. and tore him to pieces, while Flo
rina urged them on with blows Of her
whip.

We had the pleasure to see the newly
made twin brides at the Gibson House last
night, and must confess that a more per-
feet exemplificatin of the French story of
Girofle-Girofa could hardly exist. They
we're at supper with their husbands last
night when we saw them. and nice little
tea party the four made. The bridegrooms
are brothers, but not twins. Ii Is not of
ten in lifetime that one is permitted to
see two brothers married to twin sisters.
The husbands are easily distinguished the
one from the other. The elder one wears
full whiskers, while the younger has sim
ply mustache. The trouble to be appre-
hended is in the sameness of the wives.
and very pretty sameness il Is. To use
a homely bur trite phrase, they are rs like
as two peas. To describe one would be
to describe both. They are of medium
size, perfect brlinettes. dress exactly alike,
and seem to be about twenty years old.
Beauty has richly endowed these fair
brides and placed It's dimrled seal in the
cheeks of each. How. in the order of
human passion, it came to pass that either
of the husbands could fall In love with his
wife without falling in love at the same
time with her sister passes our under
standing. Ii has been suggested that each
Of the Morgan brothers fell I'm love with
both the Stuart sisters. and TO settle the
matter, put their sweethearts in bag,
shook EN- up, and drew cuts for the one
that came out first. We suppose they
know, but we don't see how either of
them knows to which one Of the twins he is
married. They came into supper, and by
judicious assortment were seated each at
the right hand Of her husband. When
they went out of the dining room one
couple was allowed TO get some distance
in advance before the otner started. to pre-
vent confusion. - Cincinnati Inqufter.

SECURING POWER BY FRAUD.

banded together to maintain themselves

BY arbitrary arrests and threats OF arrests
