MEXICAN JEALoUsY.-A private letter
from Colonel T. H. Bringhurst, dated at
Parral, Mexico, May 10, 1879, gives the
following narration:
Last week, in Chihuahua, woman
went into o shoemaker's shop in front of
his dwelling and was measured for pair
of shoes. The son of Crispin said to the
woman:
"You have very pretty foot"
"Do you think so ?" said she.
He replied: "Yes. That is the pret-
tiest foot in Mexico"
The woman was to come back next day
and leave 81, when the shoes were to be
commenced. The shoemaker's wife, hear
ing all, said nothing. The next day the
shoemaker was out when the woman with
the pretty foot called according to agree
ment, and the wife got her into the back
room and stabbed her to death. The
wife then cut a steak out of the dead
woman's leg and packed the body under
the bed. The wife asked him how he
liked the meat. He answered that sit
was the best he had ever eaten." The
wife then told him that he had eaten
part of the prettiest leg in Mexico. He
asked her what she meant? She showed
him the body under the bed, and made
dash at him with knife, but be escaped
and ran to the Palacio and told the judge
what had happened. The judge sum-
moned q guard of soldiers and went to
the house. He asked the wife if she had
committed the murder, and when she an
swered yes and attempted to justify the
act he ordered her to be shot on the spot
by the soldiers, and his orders were
promptly obeyed."

SPEECH OF JEFF DAVIS.
The Ex-PresIdent Addresses the Misslsslp-
pi Editors.

On entering the hall he was greeted
with cheer on cheer; all rose, the ladies
waving handkerchiefs and throwing flow
ers and bouquets before him as he passed
through the hall with the committee, of
which E. Barksdale was chairman, who
introduced Mr.. Davis, saying that every
Mississippian walked with loftier strides
when Jefferson Davis appeared among
them after the long and bloody night
that had passed. Regenerated and free
again, Jefferson Davis was welcomed to
the hearts and homes of Mississippians.
Mr.. Davis said Mississippi was identified
with his highest hopes, and he rejoiced
to see her regenerated. 1t was charged
that Mississippi had repudiated her hon
est debt, which was untrue. She paid
all honest debts, crushed and bleeding
from every pore, without voice to raise
in her own defense. That dark hour,
thank God, had passed away and Missis-
sippians once more governed Mississippi;
and through weeds, sack-cloth and ashes
exclaim, in the language of Job, IL be.
lieve my avenger livcth." Truth would
prevail in final triumph. From begin
ming to end, he said, in prosperity and
adversely, when leading bodies of men
or laden with chains in dungeon, /
have been true to Mississippi. L believe
you have done right and l do not feel
that have done wrong. Thanking the
press of Mississippi for their cordial recep.
tion, he predicted it would vindicate the
past and point to higher roads of moral
ity in the future. The women of the
South during the war were most resolute.
He said he never saw Southern woman
who had been reconstructed. The chill
dren of such women must rise to vindi-
cate such principles. Let no one, said
Mr.. Davis, suppose am advocating rev.
olution or preaching sectional strife.
The re-establishment of such principles
and great truths as lay at the foundation
of this government was necessary. Null
lifcation and secession began in New
England and not in the South. Friends
for all Mississippians are my friends,
one and all; 1 love Mississippi and |
love Mississippians-God bless you all
now and forever Repeated applause
and great enthusiasm. )-PascagOula Spe-
cial to New Orleans Picayuuse.

Restoring The Drowned.

DR.. Lambert, of New York, asserts
that it can be done by hot water. "The
philosophy of the NATTER" says the doc.
tor, is this: "Apply heat to the drowned
body. Get it warm. That is all. Only
get it warm. deserve no credit for the
recipe. I discovered it one morning
when boy. There was no wit nor wis
dom in the discovery. IL was made ac-
cidentally. One wintry afternoon, when
a boy, I found chicken lying in fro
zen pool of water. The half of it that
was frozen by the water was frozen stiff.
/ picked up the creature, took 1t into the
kitchen, and laid it on stove minute
to thaw out, so that l might pluck it.
Presently its head lifted slightly and
dropped. In minute or so its body
futtered. took it up and discovered
that it was alive. Now the explanation
of the thing was very simple. The heat
acted upon the nervous centre Of the
chicken, these upon the heart this upon the
blood. The blood began to circulate, and
the chicken began to breathe. Of course
the chicken had been dead. Everybody
knows how frozen fish come to life again
when warmed. A man digs hole in the
ice, brings upsome Topping pickerel, and
throws them on the ice. They are soon
frozen. But any fisherman will tell you
that remaining frozen for two or three
days-weeks, for aught l know-they
can be resuscitated. Now, it is the same
with the human body. Take drowned

pour warm water-as warm as the flesh
will bear-on the blanket, produce an
equally distributed warmth in the body,
and life will be restored, no matter if he

ment on dogs. One summer I drowned
the same dog twenty times, and brought
him around all right each time. You
