A Thrilling Tale Of the Tombigbeo'
Henry w. Grady, in the Atlanta Constitu-
ton,
\ lew York Times,

The town of CIayyilie, situated
lOIpe 30 miles from the mouth of the
Tombigbee river, is at present greatly
excited over the departure of the local
colored minister, who recently
started down the river on board Il
large and strongly-built cOlOred sister.
The circumstances attending the min
ister's departure We're peculiar, and
their publication may, perhaps, aid i'll
the recovery of the intrepid, though
unintentional voyager.
The minister III question was of the
Colored Baptist persuasion, and was
famed throughout the Tombigbee Val
ley for his skill as q hapt}zerl as well
as fer l,iS ability aS a preacher. There
is no doubt that he was fearless and
conscientious man. Instead of MAIN
tanning that polite silence Oh the sub
ject of chickens; which many cOlored
ministers insist is absolutely necessary
in order to avoid chilling the fervOr
of their hearers, this particular minis
ter never hegitayed to declare that
right of property in chickens existed;
and that it should be respected in GER
tain cases, and to a greater or less eX-
tent, by all honest men, especially
during the season when hams are
readily dcceSSlDIe. lIllS DJlu uOtIIlile
instead of iniuriEg his popularity, ac
tuaIly INCREASED the respect in which
lie was held by his congregation, and
gave him much prominence among
his ministerial brethren.
Among the colored ladies cf Clay
vile was one WHO had long desired to
submit 10 the rite of baptism, but vino

A LOVE TRAGEDY.
How Two Nexieans Settled au Affair of
the Heart.

~ Memphis paper contains y lengthy
account of terrible love tragedy
which recently occurred at Guadala-
lara, capital of the State of Jalisco.
We condense the facts as follows:
y young, beautiful and wealthy
widow had two suitors, the one being
a talented medical student, and the
other a dry goods clerk. The former,
though graciously looked upon as a
friend, met several reVerses as lover,
and finally, for reasons not made pub
lie, was prohibited from calling upon
the beautiful but bereaved widow
The dry goods clerk, on the contrary,
was an Adonis, ever warmly received
by his Venus. His hopes for gaining
the heart and hand of his idol in
creased daily and attracted public at
tention. This produced ferocious jeal-
ousy and desperation i'll the mind of
the more unfortunate rival. One day,
a Friday, (supposed TO be an evil day
in the calendar of gOssfps !, the widow
threw open her residence for the re-
ception of friends. The attendance
was large, and composed of the aris-
tocracy of Guadalajara, the second
city of the Republic in culture, taste
and refinement. A grand ball fol
lowed the reception, and the finest
music fiOated forth its harmony to
make the affair as delicious as it was
brilliant. Among those in attendance
were the young medical student and
the dry goods clerk, the latter having
considerable local fame is :, poet. Du-
ring the dizzy waltzes the student OBJ
served that his rival was the partner
of the charming widow, Il fact which F,
his jealousy. Unable to /
control himself, the disciple of Escu- I.
lapius startled the assemblage 10y in /.
sulting in the most elegant manner |
the dry goods clerk, and followed this /
by challenging him to Il duel there /
and then. The man of tape instantly ,
accepted the challenge, and being pre- |
pared for emergencies, the duel took ,
place without unnecessary ceremony. /
The principals selected their seconds, !
and walking into the patio or court
yard of the residence of the widow, /
their deadly work. The |
first SHOT of the dry goods clerk was
II, as was that OF the medical stu
uent. Both We're mOrtally wounded
and expired i'll a few moments. The !
affair was conducted in such cool /
and busineSs-like way that the assem-
blage could scarcely believe anything
had happened until they saw the two
dead bodies lying i'm the patio. The !
woman in the case, hehaliing the ter
rible sight of which sue was the prime /
cause, hurst into tears and cXclained: !

Signs Of Returning Prosperity.

There are not wanting indications
OF real revival OF prosperity:
1. The revival OF foreign immigra-
ton. For the first time In five or six
years the tide OF foreign immigration
has set in toward this spot. This Is
an unmistakable sign Of prosperity.
2. The undercurrent OF the stock
exchange is buoyant. No bear
movement has been successful since
the passage OF the silver bill. Every
downward movement has been al
most instantly followed by an up
ward movement.
8. Railroad building has been re-
sumed, more especially in the west
This, OF course, has already reacted
on the iron Industries of Pennsylva-
mia, and the increased activity there
will, in time, produce an increased
activity In the New England mills.
4. The prosperity Of the far west Is
phenomenal. Nothing similar has
been known before. The harvests
promise great abundance-the tide
OF settlement is flowing rapidly
New lands are being brought under
cultivation, feeders to the great
trunk lines Of railroad are being con,
tsructed, and the demand for manu-
factured products is sure to be large
8. Our foreign commerce is steadi
ly increasing. This is another excel
lent condition Of returning prosper
| ity.

How Telegraph Tramp AstOnished
the Boys.
Il first knew Tom Edison ;" said Mr..
Stewart, in 1866. At that time was
an operator in Tennessee. Tom was
employed by Colonel Coleman, the
Superintendent Of the Western Union
Office in Memphis. He was a gawky
boy, about eighteen or nineteen, and
was reading everything about cleo
tricity that he could pick up. He had
lean and hungry look, and always
seemed to be under the influence OF
some secret excitement. He had got
into his head the idea OF sending du-
plex dispatches, and all his spare
time was devoted to experiments in
the office. Coleman stood it for some
time, but at last began to growl. He
allowed that Tom was crazy, and said
that amy damned fool ought to know
that a wire can't be worked both
ways at the same time He declared
that he wouldn't have Tom puttering
around tho Office with such Stiffness.
and finally discharged him in disgust.
The boy went back homo to some
town in Michigan, and ! lost track OF
him. Some time afterward / was
transferred to the Boston office. At
that time wire No. 1, as it was then
called, was considered the crack wire
OF the country. The fastest men
were working it. For some cause the
operator in Boston resigned. 1t was
difficult to find q mau to take his
place. A half dozen fellows tried 1t,
but found it too much for them. One
after another theJ dropped 1t Like
hot potato, and sloped, wiser than
when they came. There was q man
In the Office named M. F. Adams. He
thought the world OF Tom Edison
and recommended him to the place
vouching for him as flrst-class op-
orator. G.. f. Milliken, the manager,
telegraphed TO the little town In
Michigan, asking Tom IL he would
come on and accept the position. Ton
answered yes, and without further
words started for Boston, via the
Michigan Central and Grand Trunl
railroads. In running through Cana
ada he got showed under. and wal
kept on the track in one spot twenty
four hours, cold and hungry, withou
