Virginia City Chronicle. May lG.l
A lady residing in the vicinity of
the Lady Bryan mine, in Six Mile
canon, while attending to her
household duties last Thursday
morning, waS addressed by a seedy-
looking man, who asked for a drink
of water. He was evidently a tramp,
yet there was an air about him that
bespoke genteel breeding. HI
drank the cup of water handed
him, and, looking into the house,
saw an opened piano. Apologizing
for the liberty, he asked permission
to play on the instrument. His re-
quest was granted by the somewhat
astonished lady. Seating himself
at the piano, and removing the
music-book from the rack, he
opened with the overture of clan
credi," which he followed with
half a dozen gems and grand operas.
Without even a pause he changed
off into sparkling airs from the
"Grand Duchess" "Girohe Giroha,"
and other comic operas, finally
winding up with the allegretto of
Beethoven's symphony in A. He
played for nearly an hour, yet, dur
ing that time, the lady of the
house, once a music teacher in this
city, sat amazed, and, as she says,
entranced." She endeavored to
lead him into a conversation over
his past history, and asked him why
he did not practice a profession for
which he was so eminently fit, but
he refused to speak, and in reply to
inquiries merely said that he was
poor and in search Of work. After
partaking of a good meal, in pay
ment for which he split a few logs
of wood in the yard, he continued
on his way down the canon.

Clusters Field Glass.
New York Herald. NAV ri

@1~ANANt maj 4@HI
About eighteen months acc.
while Senator Christiancy, of Mich.
igan, was in the South investiga.
ting the election frauds, he paid a
visit to General Wade Hampton,
and the conversation drifted into
war "reminiscences. Among other
military perSOnages, General Hamp-
ton spoke of General Custer, and
expressed his appreciation Of the
dead hero in the highest terms.
Senator Christiancy replied that he
was we'll acquainted with all of
General Clusters family, having
known him from childhood. Then
General Hampton remarked that
during the war, some of the soldiers
of his command, at the battle of
Brandywine, had captured a field
glass belonging to General Custer
and given it 70 him, and he (Gen-
eral Hampton) had used it during
the last two years of the conflict.
Senator Christiancy was asked if
he thought Mrs. Custer would like
to have the glass. The senator said
eyes" and at once wrote to Mrs.
Custer about the matter. She sent
a letter to General Hampton, say
ing that she would doubly appre.
ciate the relic because it had been
the property Of two brave men, and
she added that her husband had
been an admirer of General Hamp-
ton. The latter sent word that as
soon as he could get the glass
brought down from his mountain
home he would forward it, and the
historic glass is now on its way to
Monroe, Michigan, the home of
Mrs. Custer, where she has a large
collection of war souvenirs ar
ranged in a cabinet.

Curious Facts OF MIsCegenAtiOn.

M. Victor Maisnan's Book on the Antilles.l
The child Of colored parents of
different tints, such as quadroon
and mulatto, or mulatto and black,
will be nearer the tint of the darker
parent. If both parents are of the
same color, the child will be a shade
darker, and, singularly enough, the
second child will be darker than the
first, the third darker than the sec
ond, and so on to the last. In other
words, a colored community, left to
Itself, is fatally destined to return
to the original African black, after
q limited number Of generations.
Thus, while each new alliance with
an individual of pre- Caucasian
blood brings the negro a step nearer
to the white standard, the reverse
is the case the moment the eau.
casian element is withheld, and the
color retrogrades from light to dark.
A curious proof of this is found in
observations made during some
time in one of the islands. A
mulatto woman had a female child
by a white man; this young girl
gave birth to q quadroon by a white
father, and this ~recrossing With the
white race was kept up for six gen
erations. An Identical process of
recrossing had been simultaneously
noticed in another plantation. The
children resulting from the seventh
crossing in both Of these families
were of remarkable physical beauty;
they had blonde hair, their com
plexion was Of such transparent
fairness that they might have been
taken for Albinos, but for the vigor
and gracefulness of their limbs and
their brilliant intellect. The most
experienced eye could not have de-
tected in them the slightest indica-
ton of their African origin. They
intermarried. Their children were
dark complexioned and the children
of their children are very dark
mulattoes.
The memorable law of nature is
given as one of the principal rsa-
sons why the Creoles refuse to in
tcrmarry with families who have
the faintest tinge Of negro blood in
their veins, though their skins may
be as fair as hat of Europeans.
The Creoles wish their poSterity to
remain what they themselves are
