Princely Humbug in Germany.

Nine out of ten intelligent Americans
speak OF Prince Fritz and Prince Frederick
Charles, his cousin. as ''grea. generals"
They believe because the names of these
persons were signed to reports and bulle-
tins that they were the real directors of the
armies at whose head they figured. There
is no such delusion here. If the German
armies had been left to the guidance of these
personages, the sum total of the campaign
would have been vastly different. They
never directed a movement, not the de-
ploying of a corporals guard. Moltke and
his staff conceived and executed every
detail OF every movement, the princes not
being trusted with the most inconsequent
point. The chief OF the staff OF each army
was its actual commander, the royal princes
serving merely as fgureheads to impress
the people with the dependence upon row .

A Coal Wine Horror.

Through the brutality of miner in the
employ Of the Pennsylvania Coal Company
at Dunmore, Pennsylvania, mule boy in
the same mine was recently put to 90 terri

abandoned mines that he has become. IL ia
feared, hopelessly insane, and has been sent
to the lunatic asylum in Danville, Montour
county.
The miners name is James Barrett. The
boy is the son OF poor widow, and al.
though but fourteen years of age, con
tributed largely to her support. His name
is James Gallagher. The man Barrett, it
seems, was in the habit of abusing the lad
IN most shameful manner, having NO sp-
parent cause save mere personal anti
patty. The boy stood in mortal fear of
Barrett. A week or so ago the latter had
been tyrannizing over young Gallagher
with more than usual cruelty, and finally
swore that if he did not quit his sight at
once he would kill him, at tho same time
running toward the boy with his pick raised

MONOGRAM Dresses.

The Princess of Wales, who is entering
upon the role of British fashion leader, has
introduced q monogram costume, upon
which the arms and notices of ner house
are embroidered on sleeves, waist and
drapery: The nobility are generally initial
ing the fashion, and probably dresses COW
cred with the devices from the shields of
ancient families will soon become quite the
rage. An English contemporary suggests
That those who are not of an ancient family
may embroider sleeves, corsages and skirts

present most Of the time and furnished
the committee detailed information con-
corning the probable working of various

Scraps Of the Scandal Gossip.

Mr.. Tracy continued his opening speech
on the Beecher side throughout the ses-
sion yesterday, the burden of it being OF
the same purport as the Geographic re-
port to yesterdays DISPATCH. The fol-
lowing is the only portion of the speech
containing new matter:
General Tracy then said that Tilten's
views also underwent an Important change
in regard to the relation of the sexes, be-
lieving great social revolution was I'M
pending. In regard to this matter, Ill
ton, according to his usual custom. en-
braced the radical side. He made this
subject matter of frequent conversation
with his associates, who visited at his
house, taking ground that every relation
between the sexes were proper that was
attended by mutual love. These views
and these associates were extremely Often
sive to his wife, and source of even
greater anguish to her than the
change in his religious views.
In 1856 Tilton induced his wife, against
her will, to irvitc to her house young
lady whose acquaintance he had made,
and with whom there was no doubt he
was desperately in love, as appeared from
his own letters. 1t was his own intimacy
with this woman which nearly drove his
mother-in.law to insanity. The lady in
question seeing the danger to her from
Tilton's admiration finally left, and
broke off the relations with him. In his
letters to his wife Tilton spoke of his
friendship, as he called it, for various
women. With freedom which was as
tonishing, in a letter written to his wife
on the 18th day of February, 1857, he re
ferred to his intimacy in certain
Western family which hi
had visited, and said hi

his hand on Rooinsons shoulder, said:

THE LEE INQUEST.

Mr. T.. A. Do!an called at the Central Police
Station Wednesday evening and informed
the authorities that the body Of Capt Miles
Les had been found in the Lake Pontchar-
train, twelve or fifteen miles from Milneburg,
and that Coroner DeBlanc, although notified
Of the fact, had failed to hold the necessary
inquest.
DIR. De Blanc attirnis that the statement
does him great injustice, since he received
the information only on Tuesday, when his
deputy Immediately repaired to the place in
dicated, held the inquest, and buried the
body. DIR. De Blanc not only held the in
quest. but buried the body, which duty,
under the new law governing Coroners, be-
longs to the Police Department.
As to the assertion of Dolan that he had
notified tho Coroner on Monday. concerning
The finding of the body, DIR. DeB'anc in
forms us that he did not see him, nor does he
know Anything Of the man. There may have
been a delay of few hours, when the doctor
was engaged in ascertaining whether the
body was within the parish limits, but that
he believed to be in strict accordance with his
duty. The body is said by Dolan to be that
of Capt. Lee. but it WIS not identified as
such at the inquest, the process verbal show
ing it to be that of an unknown man.
