EX-EMPRESS EUGENE FRUSTRATED.
The ex-Empress Eugene is Frustrated
by the death of her son, the Prince I'M
perial, who was killed by the Zulus in
South Africa, and remains in a semi.
conscious condition. Humanity SYM
pathizes with this mother in her heart
rending grief. All her aspirations for
her boys future greatness as the Empe-
ror of France, (for, with a mothers te-
nacity, she cherished the hope that be
would regain his fathers throne) are
now utterly crushed, and the once proud
Empress of France will go down to her
grave childless and broken-hearted
woman. Truly the ways of Providence
are inscrutable, and the misfcrtunes OF
Eugene afford an apt example of the
mutability of human greatness.

SENTENCE OF LILLE DUER.-The
protracted trial at Snow Hill, Md, of
Lille Duer for the murder of Ella
Hearn was concluded on Thursday.
The verdict of the jury was: "Not
guilty of murder, but of nnanslaughter."
The jury recommended her to the mer-
cy of the Court. In delivering the sem
tence the Court said:
1.-THE law permits imprisonment in
the penitentiary or the common jail.
or to maximum fine of $500. The
court will not sentence you to lmprls-
onment, but, as the offense was of so
grave character, the Court will impose
the highest fine which the law provides.
The court, therefore, sentences you to
pay fine of $500 and to stand commit
ted until the fine is paid"
Much dissatisfaction is expressed with
the verdict of the jury, and many la
dies who censured the accused so strong
ly during the trial now express sympa-
thy for the unfortunate girl, and regret
that the jury found her guilty at all.
Miss Duer sat like statue while
Judge Wilson addressed her, and the
only emotion visible was rapid con-
traction and relaxation of the muscles
of her face. After the sentence the
sheriff took charge of the prisoner. but
she was not taken to prison. Her friends
will at once pay the fine, when she will
be discharged.

SULPHUR IN THE AIR.-The Rich

er, Mr.. John Dickinson, and S. NJ. Full

that Fulton is himself the author of the
false account of the discussion. He
charges the editor of the Richmond
Wing, in a letter published in the Rich
mond Dispatch of Saturday last, with
being "guilty of wilful falsehood and
SANDER" and denounces the writer of
the editorials in the Wing referring to
him as bastard and liar"

AN ALLEGED CURE FOR CANCER
Our attention has been drawn to an ar
ticle in the New York San in which it
is set forth that a certain cure for cancer
is found in a tea made of the blossoms
of red clover. 1t is said that at the sea.
sons when the clover is not in bloom,
the dried flower will answer as well
as the green, and the tea of the
blossom, when either green or dry,
drank for six or eight weeks will cure
the worst case of cancer. Names are
given of persons who claim to have been
cured by this means, and several physi-
clans testify to the entire efficacy of the
remedy. While declining to vouch for
this recipe we give it for what it is worth,
since it will, at least, dc nobody any
harm,

How JUDGE HARRIS MANAGES
A special correspondent of the Gazette
has the following Judge Harris bill
for returning to the States the money
advanced by them to the Federal Gov
eminent during the war stands third on
the calendar for the next session. The
way the Judge got it there was right
cute. He makes himself friendly with
all the members on both sides of the
House, knowing that contingencies
may require him to ask their aid. Be
Ing thus on good terms with Mr.. Con-
ger, the Michigan objecter, be went to
him last week, and said, "Conger, il
you don't object to my-bill somebody
else will, SO you must pursue your usual
course then I will ask you to with
draw your objection, and when you dc
that, all the other possible DIRECTORS will
imagine that if you agree to let it pass
they can certainly have no good grounG
for opposing it, and SO it will go through
without any difficulty" Conger was
so tickled at the Importance given him
that he entered into the agreement al
once, and the most sanguine hopes that
the friends of the bill entertained for II
this session were realized" o.

Judge j. T. Harris, while not a talk
NO. ia emnhaticalIv one of the work. n O..

Judge J. T. Harris, while not talk
ing, is emphatically one of the working
men of the present Congress, and, what
is more to the purpose, possesses the
wisdom and discretion requisite to ena-
bic him to place his strokes, like Mr.
Ames did his Pacific bonds, when and
where they will do the most good in
other words, to concentrate his force
and use it to the best possible advantage,
thus differing from many of his col
leagues, who have neither the force to
a accomplish any good for their constit-
uents, nor the ability to use it if they
had. Judge Harris's recent success in
devising and getting through both
branches of Congress, in one day, an
appropriation for monument to Gen
eral Washington, in Virginia, and the
ease with which he got bill through
Judiciary committee, of which he is a
member, and the facility with which he
succeeded yesterday in reporting that
bill, when the Radicals objected to al
most everything else, and had it refer
red to the committee of the Whole, af-
ford only additional evidences of his eff
ficiency as a observation-disclosures

SUICIDE IN SALEM, Won Sunday
night of last week, J. P. Richwine,
who has been keeping bar-room in
Salem for the past year, committed sui
eide by discharging load of shot from
a double-barreled gun into the roof of
his mouth. The Salem Conservative
says that, "what induced him to take
this rash step is unknown. He was a
German by birth, but formerly resided
in Albany, N. Y, where, it is said, his
mother and, perhaps, some of his broth.
ers still live.
On Saturday he employed Joseph
Bowles to clean up and load the gun
with which he shot himself, directing
him particularly to put the locks in
good order so that it would be sure tc
fire.
Richwine was apparently about forty
five years old, and was an inohensive
peaceable citizen. His remains were IN.
tered on Monday evening""

DRUNKEN Row.-A most disgraceful
row occurred in front of the Hinton
House, last Saturday night, in which
John Gilpin and his son, Wink, VIM.
WINNER and Charles Rice figured
These men filled themselves with whis-
key, and raised row with negro boy
named Graham, who they beat unmer-
cifully. cutting his head in a shocking
manner with large sharp rock. They
then began promiscuous riot, throw
ing stones, swearing, and otherwise mis-
behaving In the row, Greer Nickel
was struck on the head with rock and
badly hurt. Justice Dunn has issued
warrants for all the parties, but up to
this time they have eluded the officers.
Deputy Sheriff Galloway is on their
track, however, and will surely bring
them to the bar for trial. Such lawless-
ness is disgrace to the county, and
should be promptly quelled. -Mountain

DEATH OF A BAPTIST MINISTER
Rev. Dennis Mclaughlin died at the
home of Mr.. John N. Haynes, the hus'
band of his sister, six miles from Hin
ton, Summers county, w. Va, on the
18th inst. Though only 90 years of age
he had been preaching II years. We
learn from an obituary notice in the
Mountain Herald, that "he had been
in bad health for six years, and had been
at the Red Sulphur Springs almost eve
ry summer. From September, 1878, till
the past Spring, he was at the Baptist
Theological Seminary. Louisville, KY.
His health failed again, and about a
month ago he came to his sisters, hop
ing to be able to go to the Springs, but
Providence had decided that he must
die.
He was decently laid away on the
18th instant, in the presence of large
congregational symapathizing friend.
He was a good man, full of faith aud
good works: was pastor of the Baptist
church in Clarksburg, w. Va, for six
years, at which place he WOE many
souls to Christ. We'll done good and
