On the Dist OF March, 1874, Theodore
Miller and Margaret Rusche were mar
ried in Augusta, KY, soon after coming
to this city, where they have lived ever
since. During this time two children
have been born to them. About year
ago Mrs. Miller instituted divorce
from her husband on the charges OF neg
lect of duty and gross cruelty. Six
months ago Miller left his wife and ell
gagged as ID bar keeper for Mrs. Elizabeth
FeIdman, the proprietress Of little
carpg:-weaving shop and saloon COM
bined, at No. 211 Poplar street. Mrs.
Feldman is a widow with six children,
her nus band having died a year ago.
Mrs. Miller has been reduced TO utter
destitution. The little help which she re-
celved from her hus band being now dis
continued she concluded to have her
husband arrested on the charge OF adul-
terry with Mrs. Feldman. The case
came up before Judge Lindemann this
morning. Numerous witnesses were
examined Oh the part of the complain
ant, among the number being two sons
OF Mrs. Feldman, one OF whom testified d
to having seen the parties occupying
the same bed. The proof being quite
strong in support Of the charge, Miller
WAS bound over to the Grand Jury in
the sum OF $500.

and Bloody work Feared.
National Associated Press to the Star.
NEW YORK, March IA Herald spe-
cial from Charleston, South Carolina,
says serious difficulty occurred near
Green Pond, forty miles from Charles
ton, yesterday, at a place known as the
Blue Store, in the Combahee region,
where the rice plantation riots ragged
last spring, which exhibits the bad
blood still existing between the whites
and blacks in that district.
A few days ago store was robbed In
w aterDoro, CalletOn County, and war
rants of arrest for the thieves were
issued by a Trial Justice, recently ap.
pointed by Governor Hampton. Three
OF the negroes were arrested but the
fourth resisted, and collecting a crowd
of his companions said he did not recog'
nize Hampton Civil Justice, and would
die before submitting to arrest. ..
A Sheritfs posse Of ten whites and
blacks proceeded to the Blue Store tC
make the arrest, and found the THE
surrounded by Il mob of one hundred
negroes, all armed, who sWore he should
not be arrested. ... ....
The posse attempting to make the al
rest were surrounded, but escaped alter
being fired OH by the mob. NJ one was
seriously hurt. The Sheriff, after CON
sulting Gov. Hampton, sent out coufi
er, and one thousand men, white anC
black, have been organ zed 10 meet a.
the Blue Store, Thursday morning, to ar
rest the thief and all parties concerned
in tiring on the posse. .....
| The negroes nave massed in large
numbers, all armed, in the vicinity, ant
swear they shall not be arrested. Ii tht
posse should be resisted a bloody EN-
counter is eX 9ected. -... ..

SOURCE OF THE COSGO FOUND.

Another nation, the Portuguese, en-
ters the field of African discovery. For
over three centuries Portugal has done
nothing in that line she opened so well
with Vasco di Cana and the other bold
navigators who followed him; she has
been content only to hold her Guinea
colonies and the Eastern province OF
Mozambique, harvest the CONNER cial
rewards OF their occupation, govern her
few thousand Africans with severity,
and carry on profitable slayc-trade.
Nov it occurs to her that what so
many explorers are busy about may be
worth her while TO look after, even on
her own account; two expeditions have
already been ordered, one for the east
and the other for the west coast, and
that for the east has already departed
for Mozambique. The work Of eXplora-
tion committed to these expeditions is
expected to consume five years and to
cost 81, SOC, 900. Almost cOincia ent with
this important mission is the news from
Angola that a Portuguese merchant has
found the source of the river Zlire, or,
as we call it, the Congo. This
merchant places it twenty days
march east from Melange, in the
very region traVersed by Living
stone on his first journey across the con-
tinent, when, as we'll as in subsequent
explorations, he crossed the River Kas-
sabi. thinking it possible that IL was an
affiuent OF the Congo, though making no
endeavor to prove il, since his special
interest was in the source and feeders
Of the great Nile. This Kassabi or Kas'
sal rises from great spring, gushing
in an open plain near Dumbo Iembo,
Il iws north ward and becomes the NJ .re,
and is, in fact, identified with the great
2 ,ire, or Congo. The Portuguese editoV
adds that this destroys Lieut.. Gamer.
on's theory that the Lualaba is the
Congo, but, as the river flows northward
and Cameron has proved by comparison
of levels that it can not enter into the
great lakes that feed the White Nile, il
would seem TO be necessarily tributary
Of the Congo, il not the main stream.

A WOMAN SOLD AT AUCTION.

American papers have often CONNIE mt =
ed upon the tact tnaJ in some parts OF
England women have been sold at pub.
lie auction during the last century. Yes
terday the novel sight Of woman being
sold under the hammer was Witnessed
by hundreds of people in front of Cur
rie'5 auction store. When it became
known that such a sale was to be made
large crowd gathered to see The VIC
man, and many were wondering il the
authorities would allow such dis
graceful scene to go on. AT 1890 the
woman was brought out. Her name
was unknown, but she was recognized
by some OF the bystanders as person
who had worked in millinery estat-
lishment on q. street before the fire,
and her character had never been ques-
toned. She seemed perfectly composed
in the presence OF so large crowd, and
never moved muscle OF her face as the
auctioneer called out for the first bid.
She stood in an elevated position,
dressed in plain muslin, without any
special attempt at display. She was u
handsome brunette, with regular Iea-
lures; dark hair and eyes, and COM
plexion as pure as wax. She was final
ly knocked down lor $S, and, TO the SUR
prise Of everybody, the bidder was q
married man. He says the woman is
somewhat dilapidated, but he thinks he
can melt down The wax and make her up
into tapers for Christmas.trees. Sne
originally cost $500 in New York, the
workmanship being OF the best, and was
Tor long time displayed in Broadway

OLD FAMILIEs.-A very searching in-
vestlgation was carried on few years
ago in the North OF England by two
families who were searching up their
respective ancestry. The strife was
great between them, each one determin-
Ing to look back into antiquity further
than the other. One of the families,
whose name was Spencer, employed an
artist to paint an historic scene, repre-
senting the building OF the ark and the
loading up OF the ship by Noah and his
sons with, its multifa:.::Soitis dMl Vari"..ss V..s
cargo. Ol the gang-plank leading to
the deck Of the ark two men were seen
rolling up a large box, on one side OF
which was painted in large letters.
"Relics, insignia belonging to the Spen-
Ger family" This was considered .
coup d'etdt hard to beat; but the other
family, determined not to be outdone ia
the antediluvian pretenses of their
name, prepared at great cost and re-
search a record OF their antiquity. In
describing the exploits of one OF their
ancestors at a very early day, who was
represented as a man of some auJnorisy,
this remarkable passag. occurred,
