THEY WENT FIsHING.-Several days ago
q goodly party of gentlemen started for the
Gulf islands to indulge in the pleasures OF
fishing. As most OF them are far from poor,
they scorned commonplace schooner or
sailing vessel, so chartered river tugboat,
in order that they might travel as fast as
they pleased, asking no favorable breezes to
push them forward. Three or four hours
experience was sufficient to dispel their
heightened ideas concerning the advantages
of steamtug for pleasure party in July
weather. The cabin was too small to hold
more than half dozen excursionists, and
altogether too warm for comfort; deck space
was very limited, and the gentlemen were
compelled to remain in one place long
time or 20 overheard. The suns heat was
great, but the boilers caloric was double,
and the smell of boiling oil was unendur-
able. There was crew Of ten men. just
one more than the number of fishermen,
and they had all to be provided for. Is it
wonderful that these pleasure seekers did
not catch fishe

when the civil sheriff was called on to act

his fees were assured, and he stood firm

A Wretched Woman.

Mrs. Muling, the Barboursvile ".
Va woman, who helped her paramour,
Williams, kill her husband, a few weeks
ago, and narrowly escaped lynching by the
mob that strung up Williams, remains
in Jail awaiting trial, and a local paper
thus describes her wretched condition !:
"She is beyond doubt the most wretched
female ever incarcerated in the jail at
Barboursviile. To her death would be
Il most welcome messenger, but her guilt
stained heart has not the courage to sug-
gest suicide and did she entertain such
a thought her hands would be too cow
ardly to assist in the self-murder. by
day gory-stained phantons flit before
her gize, while her sleep is accompanied
with dreams of skeletons, and fen dis
dance around her bedside, their mock
ing laugh deriding her for the assassina-
:ion of her husband. When asked, q
few days ago, what troubled her most,
the past or the fnture, she answered,
the horrible past. She PAGES up and
down her strongly barred room wishing
for death, and occasionally dashes her
hands into her eyes as If to keep from
her gaze the awful scenes attending the
inhuman butchery of her husband. She
has wasted in flesh to such an extent
since her imprisonment as to present the
appearance of an animated skeleton, her
appetite has deserted her, her mind is
on the verge of losing its sway, and ter
rible indeed must be her expectations
respecting the issue of her approaching
trial for murder"
