men compose gang. The splitter having
performed bis Office, throws the fish to the
"gibber," who. by dexterous turn Of thumb
and fingers, extracts the entrails and throws
the cleaned fish into the wssh-bsrrel. Sub.
sequently, the fish are taken out singly, laid
in barrels, and have handful of salt sprink-
led on each. They are then left over night
when some of the pickle is drained of, and
the barrels are filled and headed up. About
a bushel of salt is used to each barrel Of fish
After being landed, the mackerel are as.
sorted, inspected and branded by an officer
appointed for the purpose, and repacked fol
the market. No. mackerel must be thirteen
inches long; No. 2. eleven inches. Both
these rates, too, must be fat and in good con.
dition. Those thirteen inches long, but Of
inferior quality, are branded No. 3, large;
Between ten and thirteen inches is No. 3
All other mackerel, free from taint or dam

THE ACE OF HEARTS,.

bullets would ny rather too thick for the COM
fort of steady going people. The cause for
such disturbance was generally a quarrel over
the gaming table. The regulations Of the
boat usually required that all such amuse.
ments should be conducted in room provi.
ded for that purpose in the officers cabin, Sit
uated on the hurricane deck, but the sporting
gentlemen were by no means careful to OBJ
serve this rule, and the gaming was mostly
carried on at the dining table, in the main ga
loon of the steamer, to the annoyance of two
thirds on board. Many professional gamblers
used to make these boats their home, travelling
back and forth With them, fleeing all who
we're foolish and verdant enough to fall into
their hands. So we'll, indeed, was the system
managed, that the various members seemed
to have their different steamers marked out
for them by common consent, 90 that no one
would trespass upon the domain of the other.
Of course these men we're warm friends of the
officers Of the boat, who were either too sin.
eere in their friendship to put stop to the
practice, or too much afraid of the gamblers
to care to provoke quarrel with them; for,
in those days, it was common affair for such
men to resent any fancied insult with pistol
shot. One of the most remarkable men of
this GLASS was Daniel 6turdivsnt, q Frenchman
and son Of broken down scion of nobility,
who had settled in New Orleans before the
transfer of Louisiana to the United States,
sturdivant had been raised gentleman" BY
his aristocratic father, but, on coming Of age,
and finding bis fortunes very bad. had taken
to cards as means to better them. His sue
cess in this field was so great that he was In.
duced to continue it, until at the time Of
which l write, he was one of. the most noto-
rious gamblers between st. Louis and New

checked him. 10
The gambler uttered sharp cry and sat
motionless, with his eyes fixed on the card, q
worn and faded ace Of hearts, with dark
stain across the face. Sturdivants face work.
ed convulsively, as he gazed at it, and the
spectators gathered more closely around the
two, wondering at the strange scene.
"In Gods name, who are youf" asked Stur-
divsnt, with his eyes still fixed on the card.
"Look at me-" said the stranger, quietly.
And as if powerless to resist, Sturdivant rails
ed his eyes to the speaker. The stranger had
raised bis hat, and sat looking a. the trem-
bling man, with eyes that fairly blazed with
fury. Sturdivant uttered groan and sank
back in bis chair with bis face white and
rigid. The stranger, with one sweep, gather
ed the money from the table and thrust it in
his bosom. ~ G5
"The ace of hearts is an unlucky card for
you, Daniel Sturdivant," he s,id, coolly.
"You played it once when you thought it to
your advantage. Now, God help you; for
that play is ended"
As he spoke, he raised pistol, which. we
had not seen, and before we could stop him,
aimed and fred. The gambler fell heavily
on the table corpse; and the bright blood
atreamed over it, hiding the fatal card from
sight. 20

Lent,

The Lenten season, especially OBJ
served in the Roman Catholic and
Protestant Episcopal Churches, in COM
memoration of Christ's fast of forty
days, will begin tomorrow Ash
Wednesday,, and end on the eve of
Easter Sunday, April l6. Bishop Kahn
has issued the following regulations
for Lent in the diocese of Wheeling,
but, as the almanacs say, they will
serve for this latitude with but little
variation:
First. The first day of Lent, Ash
Wednesday, falls this year on the first
of March.
Second. All the days of Lent, except
the Sundays, are fasting days of obi
cation.
Third. All who have completed their
twenty-tirst year, unless legitimately
dispensed, are bound to keep the fast.
Custom allows cup of coffee, tea or
thin chocolate, with small piece OF
bread, to be taken in the morning. In
the evening, n collation. not exceeding
the fourth part of an ordinary meal, is
allowed. At this collation. meat only
is prohibited.
Fourth. BY dispensation, the use of
flesh meat is allowed on Sundays with
out restriction, and at the principal
meal on Mondays, Tuesdays, Thurs
days and Saturdays, except Saturday
In Ember week March llth) and
Thursday and Saturday in Holy Week.
Fifth. The use OF fish and flesh meat
is not permitted at the same meal dur
ing Lent.
Sixth, All under twenty-one years OF
age, those who are engaged in hard
work, the sick and convalescent, and
persons who cannot fast without seri-
Gus injury to health, are exempt from
fast. Persons excused from fasting on
account of tender age, hard labor aud
sickness, are not restricted to the use
of flesh meat at only one meal, on the
days on which it is allowed. Those
who entertain any reasonable doubt
about their obligation to fast or abstain,
ought to apply to their pastors for adj
vice or dispensation.

For Life.


From gentleman who arrived from
Kaufman last evening, the reporter
learns that the man Miller, who was
on trial in the District Court of Kauf-
man county for murder, was found
guilty and sentenced to the peni-
Tertiary for life. The circumstances of
the murder were cold-blooded in the
extreme. Miller and his victim were
travelling together, and had camped
for the night, when the murderer arose
from his couch, and after shooting his
victim, split his head open with an AK
and threw the corpse down a well. The
remarks of Judge Bonner, ON sentenc-
ing the condemned man, are said to
have been very affecting, and when he
described the midnight scene, the MUIR
der and the casting Of the lifeless re-
mains down the well, the prisoner was
visibly touched, his sobs and lamenta. |

Dallas IL a fast city, In every sense
of the word, and possesses some' fast
people-male on well M female. In
addition 10 her theatres, opera houses
and other fashionable places Of Hnluse-
ment, Dallas has her dance houses,
halfway houses, club rooms, ETC.,
which are In the main more literally
patronlZed than even her ilrst-class
places OF amusements. Al her dance
houses can be found class OF Indies
who discard those little conventional
tiles Of society and walt not for an In
PRODUCTION to her partner nor an invita-
ton TO dance, aud who waltz more
gracefully aud readily 10 the bar to
take Il drink ut the end of the set than
they do to the measure Of the discori-
ant sounds from u wheezen piano and
cracked fiddle. This class of ladies
are passlonately fond OF nocturnal
drives. which invariably lead toa mug
of beer or glass OF cheap gin at the
Point Breeze CLUB House, fashion
able resort, just beyond the city limits,
for fast people Of both sexes.
Point Breeze is u common ground,
and there they all meet. The sport
the piker, the grlsette, the variety girl
and the demi-mOnde, and 1t not unfre-
quently happens that queer pranks
are played aud strange scenes enacted.
IL sometimes occurs that n
heightened sport, suddenly enriched
by II "lucky deal" visits the Breeze
behind spanking team, only to foot
il back through the mud and slush,
some wag taking advantage OF his alb
sence in the house to drive Off with his
team. Sometimes the drive is taken
beyond the Breeze, as was the case
Sunday night with party of two
sports, whose object was to "shellroad"
their female companions. But one of
the biters got bit. After driving about
six miles in the country, one of the
men stepped from the carriage, and
endeavored to get the females to do the
same. But they declined, and the
driver putting whip to his horses, the
noble Count de Coalyard was left to
wend his way solitary and alone to the
city, His portly form was seen stray
Cling into the gates OF the city about
daylight Monday morning, looking as
II he had just closed an unsuccessful
trial of wind and speed with Heeley
the pedestrian.
Point Breeze is good place-for
those that like it; and, like many dens
nearer the heart of the great city, goes
to make up one Of the concomitants of
great metropOlis-an ingredient in
our social and business life which
statesmen and philosophers have en-
deavored to eradicate, but which still
remains, to point out, rs beacon lights
the strands and quicksands in which
all must be engulfed who lead a life of
wickedness, sin and i;nmorality.

A Youthful Candidate for PeniteDtia.
~ HOnOrs.

George Elliott, youthful freedman
of perhaps twelve summers, was ar
rested yesterday and lodged in Jail, on
charge Of setting fire to two bales of
cotton, the property of Levi Brothers.
He will have an examination before
Judge Burford this morning, and the
evidence being conclusive, the pros
poets are decidedly nattering that
George will be placed tor few years
where he will do the most good. There
is nothing like teaching boys good
trade, even If, as in Georges case, they
are forced to learn 1t.
