A Famous woman's Mistake.

Seeing halftold story, with all the
point left out, floating through the news
papers, concerning the Once-famous Nine.
Grant, afterward Nine. de Talleyand, Prin-
cess de Benevento of the Imperial Court,
says writer in the Boston Herald, | will
tell the story as related to me by one who
was present in Paris at the time il occurred.
When Talleyrand was sent to England in
1902, on a secret mission from France, he
fell in with a lady of great personal beauty
and wit, though totally uncultivated.
Much has been written about this woman,
whose history was somewhat a mystery,
but of whose Ignorance, etourderles, and
arrogance everybody has heard, Some say
that her maiden name was DayOt, and that
she was born at LOrient. 1t is certain
that she married, in early youth, Capt.
Grant, an officer of the British army, in
service at Calcutta In 1898 Sir Philip
"Junius Letters" was sent to India as a
member of the Council of Bengal, and when
there became enamored of the wife of Capt.
Grant She deserted her husband and en-
tered into hdiS0n with Sir. Philip Francis,
whereupon Capt. Grant brought suit against
Francis for heavy damages, before Judge
Barwell, which he recovered, and also OBJ
tanned a divorce. How long she lived with
Francis is not known, but she subseq uently
passed under the protection of William
Macintosh, British merchant, with
whom she returned to Europe From this
time we lost sight of her until her appear
ance as the eaptisator of Falleyrand It is
well known that Napoleon obtained from
Pope Plus VII brief of secularization for
Talleyrand his Minister of Foreign Affairs,
and that he subsequently married, Nine.
Grant, and who, in consequence of his
transformation, became no less parsonage
than Nine. de FalleyFand, the Princess of
Beneyento of the Imperial Court, The
refusal OF Napoleon to admit her to Court
nearly produced q rupture between him and
Talleyrand, and it was avoided only by the
Welding of the Emperor. AT the peace of
Amiens a crowd of Englishmen rushed over
70 France, among whom happened to be
Capt. Grant, Sir Philip Francis and Judge
Barwell Mms. De Talleyrand, hearing of
the arrival Of these old Gcquaintances in
Paris. invited them to dine With her &C the
Chateau Vallencay, thus assembling under
her roof four persons having peculiar rela-
tions Ia her-Capt Grant, her krsthusband;
Judge BaFweH, who presided at his suit for
divorce Sir Philip francis, the cause Of the
enlargement, and 1alleyFald, the husband
of the divorced woman. Having intro
duced Nine de Talleyrand, win proceed
to tell the promised anecdOte. Talleyrand,
having the intention of entertaining the cel-
ebEnfed Demon, chief of the scientific corps
carried III B0naparte t0R gypt in hin expe-

Henry W. Grady writes from Atlanta t,

Henry w. Grady writes from Atlanta to
the Philadelphia Times;
The unexpected and artificial rise in the
price of cotton had added fully two cents a
pound to the ordinary price Of this staple.
This surplus of SO per bale, which strikes
the farmers as happily did the fairy god
mothers gift to Cinderella, and which comes
quite as gratuitously, has given everything
a boom. The cotton Is being rushed to
market as rapidly as possible Just upon
this boom comes the discussion Of a little
machine that is already famous over the
continent and that promises the grandest
results, the Clement attachment. This
machine. the invention of a Memphis me-
chanic, who died Of yellow fever, provides
for the spinning Of yarns from seed cotton
AT present the cotton is picked from the
boil, taken to a gin which simply separates
the lint from the seed. The lint il then
baled and sent North for manufacturing.
With the Clement mill the lint is not only
separated from the seed, but it is spun into
yarn. The difference in value is enormous.
The lint cotton is worth only about eight
cents pound on the plantation the yarn
is worth seventeen cents yound. 1t will
be seen therefore that every pound of cotton
spun is

Symptoms of a Diseased Liver.

Symptoms of a Diseased Liver.
DAM in the right side, under the
L edge of the ribs, increases on pres
sure; sometimes the pain is in the left
side; the patient is rarely able to lie
on the left side; sometimes the pain is
felt under the shoulder blade, and it
frequently extends to the top of the
shoulder, and is sometimes mistaken
for rheumatism in the arm. The
stomach is affected with loss of appe-
tite and sickness; the bowels in gen.
eral are costIve, sometimes alternative
with lax; the head is troubled with
pain, accompanied with dull, heavy
sensation in the back part. There is
generally a considerable loss of men,
DRY, accompanied with a painful SEN
sation of having left undone some
thing which ought to have been done.
A slight, dry cough is sometimes an
attendant. The patient complains of
WEAKNESS and debility; he is easily
startled, his feet are cold or burning,
and he complains of priCkly sensa-
ton of the skin; his spirits are low;
and although he is satisfied that exer.
else would be beneficial to him, yet
he can scarcely summon up fortitude
enough to try it. In fact, he distrusts
every remedy Several of the above
symptoms attend the disease, but cases
have occurred where few of them ex-
listed, yet examination of the body,
after death, has shown the LIVER to
have been extensively deranged.
AGUE AND FEVER.
DR.. C. McLANE's LIVER PILLS, IN
CASES OF 4AGuE AND FEVER, when
taken with Qninine, are. productive of
the most happy results. No better
cathartic can be used, preparatory to,
or after taking Quinine. We would
advise all who are afflicted with this
disease to give them FAIR TRIAL.
For all bilious arrangements, and as

Condensed from the Grant County Herald of August 9:
 Fully, Ochoa x Co.'S train started west from Black & Cosgrove's saw mill in the BurrOs, last Sunday, loaded with 23,000 feet of lumber and 10000 shingles; destination Fort Bowie.
 We learn that the Clifton Railroad is being pushed forward very rapidly and that will probably be completed before winter sets in.
 Black & CoSgrOve have just finished cutting the ties for the Clifton Rail road. Their contract with the Gov ernment for Fort Bowie covers 100000 feet of lumber and 350,000 shingles.
 An Apache County correspondent speaks highly of some hot springs, and says with regard % them, " the water is very strongly impregnated with salt, sulphur and iron-so much so that it cannot be used for anything except bathing; but 1 think it prob able that NIT. Stevens, who lives two and a half.miles above Clifton. has the main spring, as the water there is much warmer than the others.
 The same writer says Bentz & Brick have fine ranche near the hot springs upon which all kinds of vegetables grow in profusion. They had ripe melons and tomatos ten days ago.
 The placer mines hold their own. The writer saw one pan of dirt washed which gave twenty-five cents, and was told that some yielded fifty cents. Mir. Dorsey showed us two bottles of gold dust, containing $40.
