During my ride on the steamer my atten-
ton was called to the different kinds of
game, duck, wild geese, wild turkey, also
the sea gull buzzard, eagles, water snake,
turtles, which are enormous in size and,
last but not least, the alligator, which
abounds in this river. Your correspon-

eight feet long. ! aroused him and very
soon decided that he could occupy the field,
l retreated as he looked hungry. The
natives say that the steak from them is de-
llcious, but prefer stall fed beef. We
have some fun here fishing but not equal
to the trout fishing. We get the shad,
black base, mullst and sheep head. The
latter is about as good to eat as aratlesnake
would be. The sportsman can enjoy him
self here IL any where. Deer is plenty as
well as the wild duck, geese, turkey
pigeon, quail, snipe and other game.

The first sight that greets the stranger
here, as well as in other towns on the river,
is not pleasing. On landing at the wharves
about the first thing he has to encounter is
a swarm of colored people, most of them
half clad and barefooted. The streets are
full of rubbish; geese, hogs, dogs, etc.
What they call hogs we Yankees would
not know by that name, for it would take
a dozen of them to make shadow. They
are as black as Goals, their noses are the
longest part OF them. and they can eat corn
out of a stone Jug.

DETAILS OF The ABBEvILLE CoNsPIRACY
CHARLEsroN, s. c., Dec. 11.-Sixteer
negroes were arrested in Abbeville county
charged with the murder of two white mel
whom they ambushed and shot near
Lowndesville, on Monday.
Six of the negroes made full confession
duplicating their fellow prisoners, and d.
vulging plot for the murder of the white
men of the village and capture Of the wo'
men. Twenty of them were in the conspir-
acy, and they had begun the butchery BY
slaughtering the two white men.
OF the sixteen srresOed, thirteen were
started from Lowndesville to Anderson, the
intention being to send them from Anderson
to Abbeville by railroad. This roundabout
course was adopted to avoid lynching by
men who were said to be on the direct ROAD
from Lowndesville to Abbeville.
The prisoners started from Anderson on
Saturday under . strong guard, but up to
last evening have not been heard from. 1t
is rumored that they have been intercepted
and lynched by party from Georgia, but
no confirmation of the report hes yet reach
ed Charleston.
Two of the prisoners had been hurt when
captured, and the party may have stopped
on the road to ease the wounded, especially
az the weather has been 10 cold.

A Singular Traffic.
From q Paris Letter.

From Paris Letter.
The strangest, perhaps Of all the strange
methods of earning living which are in
vogue in Paris is the trade Of body-6nder.
The authorities Of France pay ten francs
reward for every corpse that is discovered
in the Seine and brought to the Morgue.
As the wages Of the poor boatmen who
ply on the river are extremely small, it
will readily be seen that such an addition
to their petty earnings is not to be despised.
But as bodies float some time far down
the Seine beyond the reach Of the boat
men employed in the upper part Of the
river, these boatmen have organized reg
ular traffic with those who ply their voca-
tion far down the stream, and who, ifthey
find body, cannot well leave their regu-
lar work to bring it to Paris. The down
stream bodies are therefore purchased at
five francs each by the up stream boatmen,
the profits being thus fairly divided. 1t
may easily be imagined with what care
the river for some indication of the pre-
lence of the mortal remains of some poor
suicide, who if lie were good for nothing
while living, is worth fully ten francs now
that he is dead.
The ice men are happy, and are cutting

oning of James M. Garfield, the jury yes
