The Jasper weekly courier. [volume] (Jasper, Ind.) 1858-1922, 1877-03-23

About a year or more ago he lost his
wife by death, and was therefore left a
widower. Time wore on, and grief at
the loss wore of; but one night his for
mer wife appeared to him In the form
OF an angel. The once beloved intro
cuced 70 the solitary man woman
whom she whispered to be his second
wife. The face and form were strange,
but the tone and features we're much
impressed on the mind OF the man.
Several weeks passed on, but he failed
TO lind w0man's face corresponding
with the likeness he carried in his heart,
until one day fair face passed him on
the street. The mystery was solved,
the dream had come true; but the wom-
an was strangeri Time, however,
worked out such matters, and few
weeks after the twain met at party,
became acquainted, and the sequel was
that the dream was fully realized. The
couple are now living together in hap
piness. The N. j. Messenger Sweden
borgian), in speaking OF premonitions,
says; "They are caused by spirits who
are always present with man, and are
constantly exerting an influence upon
him. This influence is generally map
preciable. 1t does not take away mans
freedom. 1t is not casual and special
instance of Providential care, as the
Bible abundantly testifies. II we were
more susceptible to their influence, they
would keep US from natural and moral
danger much more frequently than
they do now. The diversions and at
fractions, and the unaccountable mis-
givings or confidence which we some
times experience are due to their influ-
ence. We are subject to both good and
evil influences from this source; and
we come more fully under the good or
evil according 10 our character. As
we shun evil and live according to the
we come more fully
under the power Of the angels, who can
protect US from dangers and lead us to
good. Some persons are more easily
by their influence than others,
and there may be times when we come
more fully under their power than at
others. But the angels and good spir-
its always do the best they can for rs.
We are always in their presence, and
as men advance in spiritual life, they
will be lead more entirely by the Lord
by means of His word and the messen-
gers He sends To us.n-OudUd (Can.)

A Wonderful species OF the Cotton
Plant.


A cable dispatch from London to one
Of our daily papers says: A remarks
BILE discovery has been made in Egypt
by Signor Giacomo Rossi, Austrian
Consular Agent at Alexandria. He has
found new cotton plant, which is so
wonderfully prolific that it may prove
dangerous enemy, the report says, to
the American cotton-raising interests.
Signor Rossi, in his report Of the dis
covery, says that about two years ago
he accidentally came across the new
plant on the property Of captain in
the MeDulia District, who collected the
seed and sold it to his neighbors at
twelvefold the price obtained for the
ordinary kind. The plant has long
stem, and being without branches much
space Is saved. 1t bears on an average
fifty pods on each bush, while the usual
yield Of the plant Is about thirty. A
smaller quantity Of seed is needed, but
the great drawback in Egypt is that II
requires much more water, which ne
cessitates the alternating Of the crops
with grain and vegetables. In the sen
islands of the Atlantic coast, or along
the lower Mississippi, IL would prove
wonderfully prolific.

A Saloon Keeper Stays Two Men With
Winchester Rifle.

CAMP CLARK, March "a fatal
shooting affray occurred here to-day,
resulting in the death of two men,
named Henry Mason and Richard Har-
rison. The men were ttle-herders,
from Powers's ranch, eight miles up
the Platte River, who came here to
have q spree. The shooting was done
by the bar-keeper of Kittrclls saloon.
One oi the herders fired shot from
the outside Of the saloon in at the bar
tender, who Immediately seized his
Winchester rifle, as Mason, who was in
the saloon, was drawing his revolver,
and, before he could use the pistol,
fired upon him, killing him instantly,
and then, stepping to the door rs Har-
rison was coming up 10 il with a
him (the bar-tender), he fired upon
him with fatal effect. Both are now
lying where they fell, awaiting the ar
rival Of the Coroner from Sidney. The
men were in the habit Of coming here
about once a month, and getting on
what they called ssjamboree, at such
times displaying their firearms freely,
and running things to suit themselves.
On January IL, when there on my way
to the Hills, these same men were on
one Of their sprees, and upon our arri-
val they were running things to suit
themselves, at which time they beat an
unoffending freighter over the head
with rifle so as TO render him insen-
sible, and causing him a couple weeks
sickness. As soon as they beat him
they mounted their horses and fed, be-
fore those who were cAmped here could
20 to the wagons and get their arms,
or they might have met their fate then.
The man who did the killing to-day
has gone to Sidney to give himself up
to the law.-Omoh1 Herald.

Secretary Chandler on the Stand.

secretary Snanoler on tne Stano.
Washington, Feb. AZ. Chandler,
Secretary Of the Interior, was called by
the House committee on powers, priv
ileges, etc., and produced papers relat-
ing to the resignation and application
for reappointment of Orlando H.
Brewster, the Louisiana. elector. He
said he supposed Brewster's letter of
resignation, dated Nov. 4th, was re-
ceived Nov. 18th or 10th; did not know
whether he received it from the Presi-
dent or not; did not know it was ante
dated, and was not aware that Brews-
ter had testified himself that he wrote
it Nov. 14th. 1t is the practice Of the
Department to accept designations as
of a time past, if rendered in that
manner. fas.g
Q.-Was not the application past
dated in this instance to enable him to
be eligible as an elector?
A.-Not that 1 know of; 1 did not
even know that he was candidate.
The other testimony of Chandler was
unintereSting. -

FOREIGN.


The British Lion Aroused.
London, Feb. 14.-Edheim Pasha's
accession to the viziership has disap-
pointed the British hopes that it would
lead to more conciliatory policy. On
the contrary he shows more vigor than
his predecessor in sustaining the lat
ter's warlike policy, if not positive dis
position to provoke Russian hostilities.
Meantime British public opinion in
anti-Russian policy grows stronger
daily. This is only intensified by the
vaccillation of the present British ad-
ministration, and the Liberal party is
preparing to take strong ground in par
lament looking to an active British
alliance with Russia, if necessary to Sc
cure such Turkish concession as shall
fully protect and guarantee freedom Of
conscience to the Porte's Christian sub.
jects. This issue is not unlikely to res
tore the Liberals to power.

Louisiana Matters

Washington, Feb. 14.-Before the
same committee VIM. II. Green, (color-
ed) assistant secretary of the Louisiana
Senate, and former minute clerk of the
returning board, was examined at
length, but the result was that he does
not know of any alterations of returns
by any clerk or member of the board,
or by their direction; had no knowledge
of any paper being burnt; knows of no
clerk making affidavits, and did not
hear of anything of the kind while the
board was in session, as changing the
returns from Vernon parish; it was one
of those mysterious things which the
witness cannot explain.

SPECIE PAYMENT.

Good Prospect for Early Resumption.
Washington, Feb. 14.-A bill has
been drafted to meet substantially the
recommendations of the President in
his recent special message with regard
to early specie payments, and submit
ted to him as it probably will be to the
committee of ways and means. Its
provisions differ in several respects from
the suggestions of the President, but
there is reason to believe he will not Sc
riousiy object to the changes.
The bill provides for the use of the
thirty-year four per cent. bonds already
authorized by the act of July 1870, and
by the redemption act of January 1875.
The amount Of greenbacks to be funded
into these bonds is hundred million
dollars, limited to ten millions in one
month. The further sum Of say thirty
millions of greenbacks is authorized to
be withdrawn in exchange for subsidi-
ary silver, and to this end coin is to be
increased to the aggregate of eighty
millions, including fifty millions at
present authorized.
The theory of this provision is that
silver change will take the place of the
small greenback ones and twos. These
are limited by the act of 1858 to thirty
five million, but the amount now out
standing is believed to be below thirty
millions. No commission is allowed
for funding or exchange of greenbacks
for bonds or silver coin. The expenses
of engraving, printing, etc., of the
bonds are limited to quarter of one
per cent.
Some assurances have been given that
the bill will meet with favor from both
sides of the House Of Representatives
after the Presidential trouble is set
tied.

Columbia, Feb. 14.-The people will
under no circumstances submit to the
Chamberlain government. If Hampton
is not recognized they will demand and
require a military government. If
Chamberlain is to be forced upon them
there will be riots and bloodshed, and
such action would so effectually crush
the spirits of the whites as forever after
to preclude the possibility Of bringing
them to the polls. Hampton is organ
izlng his militia, and recognition or nc
recognition from Washington, is deter
mined to hold on and maintain himself
as governor, peaceably if he can.
