Paris schoolgirl, the daughter Of.

A Paris schoolgirl, the daughter Of, a
baker, was extremely studious, and had
been working hard in order to pass an ex-
animation. Her parents insisted upon
her following their trade-a course to
which she was averse-and told her that
she could not 60. to school any longer.
One morning a fortnight ago she rose
suddenly in school and asked the lady
principal to kiss her, as she was going
away. The teacher told her to remain
until the close of school, but the girl per-
sisted in going. Half an hour afterward
she was found in closet, shot through
the heart, with revolver lying by her
side.

Reign OF Terrer in Afghanistan


The suppression Of correspondence from
Kabul, and the Insignificant character
of the official dispatches, are producing
one bad impression. 1t is believed that
Gen. Roberts is executing Afghans with
out trial, and burning their villages upon
vague charges of rebellion" but with
the real design of establishing reign Of
terror. There is no authority in exist
ence against whom it would be possible
to rebel. In other words, Gen. Roberts
is initiating the worst conduct ascribed
to Russian Generals in Poland and the
Caucasus. .... ...... ...... ......,
As Gen. Roberts is liable, if not to the
law, at least to Parliament and his su-
periors, and as no one has the least in
terest in Afghans without cause, we dis
believe the charge, which must be due to
the imperfection Of the kilograms. The
Standard correspondent for inst noe
who was the first to avail himself of the
telegraph line now completed to Kabul,
states that Gen.. Roberts, with whole
brigade, attacked a party of rebels in
trenched in the Madam district, and at
ter they had evacuated the position,
drove out the old people, seized all their
forage and burned the place to the
ground. We presume, if TIE incident oc-
Cured at all, those who resisted were
soldiers belonging to the regimentswhich
murdered Major Cavagnari; but this is
not stated, and the act in its imperfect
report reads like mere military out
rage. 1t is totally inconsistent with the
amnesty, which showed the Lieutenant
Generals willingness to stop any need

Mr. EDrroR:-I am not regular itemizer, and should
not have troubled you with this scrptum, only lest
ADLER hand should fail to chronicle the advent
of the Elocution Class, (of Troyl in Donphan. Yes,
they came and their reputation could suffer nothing
if only from their personal appearance, much less
could they suffer from any defect in the performance.
1t would have been o treat to classical audience
but, alas! for Doniphan, very few blest with a
literary taste. Circumstances were very inauspi-
cious with but small audience, and no instrument
of music. almost dreaded the result, but my fears
subsidized the first speaker took the stand.
1t is not my intention TO take them separately but
as q whole; every piece was rendered admirably L
detected neither hesitancy mistake, and the only
Improvement that could possibly be suggested, would
be little more attention to rhetorical pauses
No wonder that such exhibition should be ap-
precated by the classic town of Highland, or should
stimulate the brain of the eloquent temzer Of Sew
erance, and even Troy, with only mixture Of the
ence home talent But poor Doniphan seems to fall
below even the positive, having no relish for the
beauties of the classics Ii was easy to see that the
thetic and tragic none. The Interruption by some
graceless scamps tof whom more anon) outside the
church, might have confused older heads; but. all
honor to the girls, they maintained sn equilibrium
worthy of their training.
And now . few words ~ to DOniphan in general.
1t has class of citizens whose responsibility and
of its size but they too absorbed in business,
and closely run. to spend much time in watching
the disorders of the town. Another class may be
place, many of whom are too lax in home govern
ment and too Indifferent to their own morals to ex-
pect anything better in their children In short and
in common parlance have gentlemen of leisure,
save and except the Young America bloods, whose
regulations too public to be passed over in 81
lence. These boys range from childhood TO manhood
quite distance from the simplicity Of the one and
giving NO evidence Of reaching the standard Of the
other-the age when beards resemble gosling down,
and brains far back that the only use they can
make of them is the uttcrance of vulgar and obscene
language the stare at every lady that passes
and the incessant putting Of cheap cigar. They arc
q common nuisance to the town, and not worth
their cowardly interruption Of class of young Ia
dies not only merits this rebuke but should stamp
them with infamy and disgraee. Their well
known and il they don't reform, will some day ap-
pear in in the register Of the Sheriff. at the County
Seat, where they have the privilege Of staring
