Recovery of the Weund-Pierced
Clothing in Which He Met His
Death.
lUlundi Correspondence Natal Mercury.l
Colonel Villers found the Prince I'm
perial's uniform, or at least an agent sent
BY him succeeded in doing so for him.
Klaas. the agent, was brought up in a
Boer family and speaks Dutch fuently.
Klaas went to the neighborhood of the
kraal where the Prince was killed. Here
he discovered, by careful inquiry, that
Xabango, the man who slew him, had
been killed at Ulundi. He was of the
Bonambi regiment. Klaas had some diff
icuIty in discovering the relatives of
Xabango. who had the uniform of the
Prince, but by various means succeeded
in finding the different parts of the uni
form in different kraals,
He brought patrol jacket, riding
breeches, leather waistcoat, shirt, belt,
revolver, an ammunition pouch with
twenty-one rounds in it, and small bag
with some coins. All the clothes, except
the breeches, were pierced in front with
numerous assegai holes. TIE revolver is
smashed. 1t appears he was wounded
first by an assegai thrown from distance
of about ten yards. He emptied his re-
volver at his enemies, who closed too
quickly to allow him to reload, 80 he
SHE'D his revolver at his nearest assailant
and drew his sword to defend himself.
The Princes watch has not yet been dis.
covered. The Zulus deny ever having
seen it.
There can be no doubt about the ident'
ity of the uniform, except the shirt
which believe belonged to one of the es
cort. Klaas interviewed one Of the party
who attacked the Prince, and it is won.
derful how any Of the white men escaped
at all. The Zulus discovered them ap.
preaching long before they reached the
kraal. Before they had off-saddled the
Prince and his party were hemmed in on
two sides and affairs were brought to a
climax by the Basuto discovering the
Zulus in the long grasss Had it not beer
for this none would have escaped. The
Zulu stated that the Princes horse boltec
and broke away as he was trying to
mount.

$57, ,294, ,75S, or more than one-quarter OF
the total valuation of the State!
Hartford Courant (Rep.): There is in
the American people supply of saving
common sense" which may be trusted to
bring the majority eventually onto the
side of right. There will be doubts and
divisions, but these are to be settled by
free discussion in "the keen sunlight OF
publicity" not by the policy of silence
and suppression. If our elections of late
years teach anything it is that the peo-
pie who do the voting have outgrown the
"tafy" period. They look with con-
tempt on the leaders who would delude
them with false issues or who are afraid
to trust them to face an important ques-
ton. They know that the currency mat
ter is at present pressing for settlement,
and they will respect the leaders who are
not afraid to settle it correctly even on
the edge of Presidential campaign.

This is the latest telephone story: A
proud grandmamma who has only just
been promoted to the honors of that hap.
py relationship, is awakened in the dead
of night by the inexorable bell. "Mam-
ma, DEAR" comes to her the frightened
voice of her beloved but inexperienced
daughter, 81 am sure baby has the Group.
What shall do with it%' Grandmamma
replies that she will call the family doc
tor. and be with her anxious daughter in
a moment. She awakens the doctor and
tells him the terrible news she has learned
from her daughter. He, in his turn, re-
quests to be put in telephone communi-
cation with the too-anxious mamma.
"Litt the child to the telephone and let
me hear it cough" he commands. The
child is lifted, and it coughs. That's not
the Group" he declares; and he declines
to leave the house on such small mttters.
He advises grandmamma also to stay in
bed; and, all anxiety quieted, the trio
settled down for the night.

Six Inhabitants to the square Mile.
ISan Francisco AltA.1

The population of the State eeing
about 100000, there are, on the average,
six inhabitants to the square mile, but
the distribution of the settlement over
the State is equal. Thus, San Francisco
has about 5000 people to the square
mile, while those portions of San Diego
and San Barnardino Counties in the Col
orado Desert and Inclosed Basin, with an
area Of $4,000 square miles, have at least
seven square miles to EACH white inhabi-
tant. The Counties of San Francisco,
San Mateo, Santa Clara, Contra Costa,
San Joaquin, Sacramento, Yolo, Solano,
Napa, Sonoma, and Marin, fronting on
San Francisco, San Pablo and Suisun
Bays, and the deltas of the Sacramento
and San joaquin Rivers, all within &c
miles of Mount Diablo, and distinctly
visible from it's summit, have 5SO,S00 in
habitants, or about So to the mile, leav'
ing little more than two to the square
mile for the remainder of the State. In
general terms, one-fourth Of the State be-
longs to individuals, one-twelfth is fenced
in, and one-twenty-fourth is cultivated

But four autographs of Gen. Nicholas
Herkimer, the hero of the Oriskany bat
tie, in 1777 are known to be in existence.
One of these is owned by M. M. Jones, of
Utica; one by the Hon. Samuel Earl, of
Herkimer; a third by gentleman in
Buffalo, and fourth by the Oneida His
torical Society at Utica. The latter is
such a unique document, and sheds so
suggestive light upon the character of
the education possessed by Gen. Herki-
mer, and upon the strange and mongrel
Dutch English language which was in cur
rent use in the Mohawk Valley during the
Revolution, and traces of which are still
found there, that I have made a tran
script of it for the Magazine of American
History: "[CoPY] ser yu will order your

Mr.. Matthew d. Bagg translates this
curious order as follows "Sir: You will
order your battalion to march immedi.
ately to Fort Edward, with four days
provisions and ammunition fit for one
battle. This you will disobey [at] your
peril. From yourl friend, Nichola:
Herkimer. To Col. Peter Bellinger, at
the flats" The order is written in q
bold but blind hand, with no punctua
tion marks, and no capital letters, except
where indicated above.

A lad who lives in the mountains near
Turner's, N. Y, on the Erie Railway,
while peering out of a window into the
darkness one night not long ago, ex-
claimed: "There are three lights. and
one of them is for me. I shall die before
long" On the following Sunday while
he was on the way home from church he
again asserted that he was going to die
soon. That afternoon he went into the
barn to look after the stock and was
kicked by horse in the breast. On
Tuesday he died from the injuries. The
vicious horse was overwhelmed with re
morse or some kindred feeling, for h.
Drained himself against tree about ter
minutes before the boy died. This il
what the local chronicler comptehen
sively describes as Case of juvenile pre-
sentiment and equine grief.

The Troubles of the Tattooed Greek.

The Troubles of the Tattooed Greek.
Capt. Oostentenus, the tattooed Greek,
is in trouble in Brooklyn. He invests
most of his money in diamonds, and
wears several rings and breastpin set
with valuable gems. Since he made his
appearance in the City of Taxes his mind
has been kept in continual turmoil by
a report that several persons have fol-
lowed him in the streets to rob him Of
his jewelry. The New York Star says:
On Monday night, among the throng
that visited him were three hard looking
men. While the exhibition was in pro-
gress, Nine. Clark, six hundred pound
(more or less) baby, heard them make a
remark regarding Capt. Costentenus' dia-
monds, which led her to believe that
mischief was brewing, and she immedi-
stely informed the Greek. He grew wild.
As he was returning to his hotel, he was
stopped by three men and asked what
time it was. The Captain Immediately
squared himself and knocked one of
the men down, and then the atmosphere
was resonant with Greek, French, Latin,
and other dead and dying languages.
The three men fed.
Yesterday Captain Costentenus visited
the Washington-street Police Station,
and in some of the worst English ever
heard in this country, informed Captain
Campbell of the occurrence, and asked
permission to be allowed the privilege of
carrying knife, or pistol, or gun, or
howitzer, to defend himself should he be
molested. The Captain quieted his fears
and told him that posse of police off
GERS, in citizens clothes, would accom-
pany him in his future peregrinations
through the slums of the wicked city
The Greek was satisfied.
Last night reporter for the Star Wis
tied the Greek and talked with the kal
somined foreigner.
"Yessir," said he, "they was bada mer
in this city, an they steIa my dimon
days. l knocka onea man SO he noa get
tee up. OATS so. Bigaf fata woman ovel
there tella me ALA bout it. Il makes
some mana dead some time they try t,
steala me from my dimondays"
The man was much excited, and shiv
cred and shook like a cold dog rs he
showed his gems. He told the reporter
about two columns more about the as
sault, but, as most of it was Greek, and
IS it is surmised that not all of the read
ers of the Star understand Greek, the
verbatim ct literatim report is withheld

A Court in Bergen County, N. j., has
been administering justice. VIM. w.
Colfax, Jr., promised to marry Miss Hes
ter Winters, young lady of "a highly re-
spectacle family. After dallying for
four years he tried to get out of the en-
gagement by assuring the young lady's
father that he was married to another
woman. This WAS a falsehood, and Col
fax admitted that it was while giving
his testimony in Court. The jury ordered
him to pay the girl $1,000. This is little
enough.

willing to go through the wear and tear

Boston Post (Dem): The drift of Re-
publican engineering is to keep the Green
back element in allegiance for purposes
of traffic and use in the next Presidential
campaign. The solid business men of the
country are moving in various sections
to have this disturbing element removed.
Their influence is potential, and never
more 80 than now. Independent of the
intrinsic merit of the subject, the South
ern Democracy can not afford to array it
self against them. Right and expedien-
cy in every aspect combine to urge a
qualification of Southern sentiment and
action in the direction thus indicated.
