Fate Of the Egyptian Armies in Abyssinia.

Ict' VI Ine egyptian armies IN ADySSlnla.
\ Paris correspondent kilograms an
account of all interview with an officer in the
Egyptian army, who gives circmstantial de-
tails Of the horrible events which have taken
place in Abbyssinia during the attempts OF
the Egyptians to chastise the Abyssinians.
There have been two expeditions. The first,
which was dispatched on October IS, 1872,
consisted of 1900 men. It was surprised in a
defile Of Gourdel and massacred to the last
man. The second expedition, of 5000 men,
started in January last. 1t met the Abyssin-
1ans in a defle OF Goura and was over
whelmed, Jour thousand men being killed.
The Abyssinian king then went into the in
terror and, according to the latest reports, has
repeated what he did in the defiles of Gourdel
and Goura by again crushing an army Of
Egyptians. The details OF this, as well as OF
other expeditions, are guarded with great Sc
cresy.

New Large japanese Radish.

A new variety of radish, the seeds
of which were forwarded from Japan
by DR.. Genou, has been introduced in
to the French market under the name
of Raphanus acantiformis, and is pro-
nounced an acquisition of value. In
color it is milk-white, with tinge of
yellow, and it is firm, transparent, and
juicy, and of delicate flavor, while the
skin is thin and peels off easily. In
Japan, where it is cultivated under the
name Of Daicon, it frequently attains
length of IS inches, with CORES.
ponding thickness and it is used in a
great variety of forms as food, and is
frequently fed to cattle on account of
it's great yield. AtLyons it has been
grown 48 inches long and - inches
thick. It is sowed in July and Au-
gust, and requires for it's full develop.

Smilax as q Window Plant.

The Myrsiphyllum asparigoides.
commonly known as smilax, is oneof
the prettiest climbing plants with
which l am acquainted. There are no
large or snowy leaves or gaudy color
ed flowers to attract attention, but,
everything about the plant, from it's
long, slender, grass.like stem, to it's
SMALL delicate, fragrant, white flowers,
are the very perfection of grace and
neatness. The roots, being small, re-
qulre but little soil or pot-room, and
the vines shoot up rapidly, clinging to
any slight. support given in the form
OF Irvine, wire, or trellis. Plants are
easily produced from seed, or they can
be had very cheaply of almost any
florist. do not think the merits of
this neat little climbing plant are as
fully appreciated as they deserve by
those who take delight in cultivatinc
window plants, as it is especially
adapted to that purpose. While a ma
Jorlty OF plants of a similar habit be-
come large coarse and cumbersome
when fully developed, the smilax new.
er reaches such stage, but is always
light and graceful, no matter how
strong and vigorous the growth. It is
extensively cultivated by our florists,
the gentler sex being their principal
customers, for Smilax enters largely
into ''little nothings'' which add SO
much to the grace and beauty of the
final touches of a lady's toilet. AL
though the vine appears to be very
delicate and fragile. it is quite the re-
verse, for the stems are almost as
tough as iron wire, and the leaves re-
main fresh, without willing, long
time after the twigs are separated
from the parent plant, even in a warm
and dry atmosphere, hence the special
adaptibility to the purpose named.

Seduction and Suicide.

THE VICTIM BLOWS HER BRAINS OUT.
Sunday afternoon last the little city OF
Union Springs was thrown into q fever-heat
by rumors of young lady committing sui
eide, which rumors proved only too true.
For the past year Mr.. BEAUMONT has been
paying his respects TO Miss Mary Jane
daughter OF Mr.. John Hasky, an honest old
English gentleman, who, ever since he left
the sold country" has resided in Union
Springs, much respected by every body who
is acquainted with himself and his family.
Miss Hasky's record for good behavior and
chastity has always been unimpeachable
until lately suspicious were entertained by
some persons that all was not right. Mr..
man, and member of the firm OF BEAUMONT
d Rosenthil. Miss Hasky was a kind, unas-
Stunning lady, about twenty. four years of
age, and member of the Protestant Episco-
pal church. Mr. BEAUMONT being a married
man, his marked attentions to her natu-
bors began to talk and wink at each other,
and very soon the old English gentleman
and his better half smelt q mice, q large
sized mice at that. The girl was rigidIy
questioned and finally confessed her guilt.
The old gentleman was overwhelmed with
grief at his daughters dowlfall, aud imme-
d1ately swore vengeance on the author OF the
mischief. Sunday afternoon Mr.. B.. as usual
with him, called to see the young lady, when
she informed him the scat was out of the
bag" and that her father had sworn to XIII
him on sight. 1t was about O'Clock, He
babe the weeping girl good bye and took the
O'Clock train for this city. Soon after be
left her she procured a loaded pistol. and
placing the muzZle to her white temples she
pulled The trigger, and as the blood and
brains of fair woman despatched the room
a soul went out TO meet its God, the Judge of
the quick and dead, who we know will be
compassionate with the erring one.-TAla-
