WINNIE R6AMS GIRLHouD.

This bewildering Young moulder
Of craven images is a Kansas girl.
The paternal Ream was for many
years resident Of this State, where
he followed the avocation of hotel
keeping. He operated first in the
Shawnee House, Leavenworth, and
Eldridge House, at Wyandotte =
The patrons of these hotels and ct
zens of the towns named recall the
Winnie Ream of those days as pert,
plump little body, with remarkably
bright eyes and a handy way of
waiting upon the guests at table and
it is related that when the family
made the journey from Leavenworth
to Wyandotte she drove the COW,
walking the whole distance barefoot
ed to save her only pair Of shoes -
Nobody who knew her in this sylvan
era of her girlhood is able to recall
a single sign in her looks or her ac-
tons of bent for chiselling statues.
And yet it is fair to suppose that the
"divine attlatus" had at least whis-
pering Judgment in her mind even
then, if We are to accept the fatter
ing estimate which her friends put
upon her work as an artist. If she
ever ulped" anything in Kansas
except biscuits and butter-rolls, there
is no record or remembrance of it;
nor is it known here how or when
she first commenced her working Of
miracles in stone. She had but little
education and 10 art training when
she left Kansas; and to people there
abouts she is herself greater wonder
,han all her statues. It seems nearly
impossible to credit the fact that
girl who only few years ago was
ASKING dishes in frontier boarding
house should now be winning world
wide attention in sphere which is
supposed to demand the highest and
subtIest genius. Putting aside the
question Of the real value of her work
as an artist, the fact of her success
as a woman, her triumph over obsta
c!es which few men fnd it possible
to surmount, is not without signal
claim to general and praiseful recog>
aition. If success be the true test
Of merit her title to fame is above
dispute.

respectable young lady named Para

close intimacy, asking her to meet
him, and referring her to certain pas
sages in the Songs Of solomon. The
letter was enclosed in an envelope
with the letter-head of the Southern

into the hands Of the young lady's

a matter Of business, opened and

TIE Aiken Courjer-J0urnat is in
formed by Mr., Sol Cochran, the
mail carrier to Dunbarton, that on
the 18th Of June last, colored twins
were born on the farm OF Mr. Joseph
Ashley, near that place, with liga-
mentaryconnection near the stomach.
One of the twins has neither eyes,
nose, hands or feet, and the only
oriice answering for a mouth is
perpendicular slit running lengthwise
of the face. 1t seems TO be perfectly
dumb and to receive nourishment
entirely from the other child, who is
healthy and well formed. If the
dumb child is touched the other feels
it, and if asleep Immediately awak-
ems. The perfectly formed child,
as may be supposed Is female,
while the dumb animal belongs to
he male persuasion. Qaite an ex-
citement is created down in that
region, and several enterprising Bar
nuns have already appeared upon

MILITIA INJUNCTION DISSOLVED.

The case of James D. Stewart
and others citizens and taxpayers,
by their attorney, Gen. j. q.
George, enjoining the issuance OF
the $4,000 remaining to tho credit
of the State mil tia fund was heard
by Chancellor Ware, in Jackson,
on Monday, the 18th inst, and the
injunction was dis solved, Chancellor
Ware holding that the injunction
was not we'll grounded, and that it
should be left discretionary with
the Governor to determine when
the exigency is such as to warrant
the calling out OF the militia, aud
the use OF money appropriated for
that purpose.
1t will be generally admitted that
Chancellor Hill has taken the pro-
per view Of this question, and that
hu las the law aud the Constitution
on his side. An appeal was taken
by Gen. George, who stated that
though practically the Injunction
had served tue purpose for which
it was intended. there were qucs-
tions involved which he should like
to have decided by the Supreme
Court.

Yesterday at IL o'clock, Messrs.

from the county Jail to the city
Court to answer an affidavit against
them for shooting with intent to kill

gerald and Luke Lea, Esq. appeared
for the State, and the accused were
represented by Attorneys U. M.
Young, Judge Brien and Capt.
Spears, Judge Oarren Cowan, and
Capt. Cobb, of Monroe, La. The
only evidence taken in the case was
that of Drs. Quinn and Hunt, who
attended the wounded men, and
that was necessary so as to ascer-
tain whether the trial was to be on
the charge of murder or shooting
with intent to kill. Hickman was
reported by the surgeons as danger

bility, if any, Of recovery, while
Gibbs was reported as likely to re-
cover in a short time. Upon this
representation of facts it was found
impossible to proceed with the case,
and the prisoners were recomEitted
to Jail to await the further result of
the injuries to the men. The pro-
ceetlings lasted several hours, which
were mainly consumed by counsel

COTTON

The latest "Farmer'S indicator
published at Jackson, Miss says:
Whatever interested parties may
say to the contrary the cotton crop
of the present season is destined to
be Il short one as compared with
last year-far below the sanguine
expectation of both propucer and
consumer two months ago. Prices
are therefore likely TO be much high
er when the eNtravagant statements
in some of the commercial papers
are found to he incorrect.
With this well founded assurance,
before him, it is the interest of evrey
farmer to he fully up with his pick
ing, and to see his crop is gathered
in the very best possible condition.
The difference in cost in gathering
it in trashy, slovenly manner and
picking it out without trash or dirt,
is comparatively little, while III the
sale it makes all the difference from
highest priced to the lowest grade
cotton. Every moment that the cot
ton remains unpicked after it fully
opens, Injuries its commercial value
by bleaching 1t and rendering it's
fibre more harsh and brittle. 1t is
more liable to injury from rains and
storms and it also loses rapidly i'm
weight, and thus entails positive
loss to the producer.
THE crop once well housed, no great
haste may be made in running it
through the gin, for the longer seed
cotton lies in bulk unginned un-
heated, the heavier and richer in
look aud feel it becomes. With the
probabilities OF a rising market be-
fore him, the farmer who is so fort
innate to as own his crop after it is
made wOnld do we'll to turn his chief
attention TO picking out in good
condition and housing his crop, and
then, at more leisure lime gin it
and handle it carefully, SO that it
will bring the most remunerative
price. Care should be taken not to
allow any dirtyor trashy cotton to be
packed with good cotton for if yOn
only have 90 or 80 pounds OF stained
OF dirty cotton III a bale. the whole
is sold at the price of stained cotton.
