The Duke Of Ha m iltOn's Escapades.


The Duke must have been the hero of
good many escapades Of the "Prince
Hap' kind. At restaurant in Paris he
was so unfortunate as to be compelled to
knock a policeman down, whereupon
brother. guardians of the peace were
under the painful necessity Of taking his
Grace and friend to the lookup. / be-
lieve they were unaware of his rank and
position, and looked more ashamed than
the Duke when they learned their mis-
take: The thing got into the papers, and
the late Felix Whitehurst, Esq, was in
structed to state that there was no truth
whatever in the report, etc. For all that,
there was a good deal. The late Duke,
by the way, was far more unfortunate
than his son in these little affairs, man.

by tumbling headlong down the steps Of

A Nice Story.

The recent matrimonial adventure OF
a New York miss, who went to Georgia
in answer to an advertisement of a
"well-to-do planter" but found a
broken down lazy-bones farmer in wait.
ing, leads the Dallas "Herald" to speak
of more successful affair Of the kind
which eliminated in that Texas city the
other day. A lady of Dallas advertise
ment in literary paper that a "South-
ern widow, not over thirty two years OF
age, of a good family and well off in
pr, perty, desires to correspond with a
middle-aged gentleman with view to
matrmony." A contractor of Water
town answered the advertisement, and
several letters passed. On his arrival
at Dallas the New Yorker found the
lady what she had represented herself
to be. She was not only the owner of a
rich farm, but what pleased him most
was that "she was the possessor of fine
physique and more handsome face
than the photograph had Indicated y
The New Yorker, as an evidence of good
faith, deposited two thousand dollars in
Dallas bank to her credit, and they
were married.

A Singular ElOpemeBt Story.

Atlanta, Ga, Despatch to the wash. fost.
The neighboring town OF East Point
gave birth to a sensational event to day,
caused by the elopement of Miss NollIe
Walker, daughter of the Rev. W. C.Wal-
ker with G. i. Rateree, "a prominent citi-
zen. Three months since the same
young man eloped with a younger sister
of Miss Nolie, and married her. The
bride was under fourteen years of age,
and the married contract was set aside.
she willingly came home, and was sent
away to school. Rateree endeavored to
get her back, but was unsuccessful.
A year since Rateree courted Miss Nollie,
and being refused admittance to the
house the courtship progressed through
the medium of correspondence, and
Miss Laura, a younger sister, was made
the coniidant-. Ratpree soon conf
manced to whisper words Of love to
Laura, which resulted in misunder-
standing between the former lovers, and
in turn it had the desired effect with
the younger victim, whom he eloped
with and married. Being defeated in
this he succeeded in rewinning the con-
tidence of his first love. The parents
of the bride were in Atlanta at the time.
All the parties concerned are of the
highest respectability. The Father is a
distinguished divine in this locality.

The Varying Prices for Oil.

The price of crude petroleum had
gradually been decreasing from seven.
ty-ti7e cents per barrel at the close OF
May, to sixty-three and a third cents
on Saturday. This was the price in
New York, and though not the lowest
in the history OF the oil trade, it is the
lowest for four years and a-half. About
that time the oil was down to fifty cents
a barrel for crude, the lowest price ever
had. The highest price ever paid was
so per barrel, i'll January, 1860. Then
Oildom was i'll its glory. The average
price of oil last year was Sl37 per bar
rel, and in 1876 it was sold al $2S3.
The preseLt decline in price, equal to
about fourteen per cent. in two weeks,
is due to present over-production. 1t
is also said that the market has been
bolstered up by extraneons means, or
its price would have gone still lower
than sixty three and a-third cents. -
The Bradford Era in speaking OF the
decline says:
Sixty cent oil is not the myth that
three mol.ths ago it was believed to be.
The reality daily and hourly becomes
more apparent. In minds of well-po
ted dealers the question is only of time
when oil will descend to fifty five, fifty
or even forty cents, should the activity
displayed in drilling continue unaba,
ted. It's descent, though gradual, and
marked here and there by slight recov,
les, seems none the less sure. Down
to bankruptcy and ruin. Down tc
poverty and famine and starvation.- -
Down to all the horrors wrought by
following a blind intatuation and a
reckless course, that cannot end other
wise than in an utter prostration of the
third greatest industry Of the coun-
try"
The Derrick says:
''If the market were to take its own
course it would have reached fifty cents
some time ago, drilling would have
been restricted ere this, and we might
now have been on the highway to a
prosperous era, instead of cropping un.
willingly along toward bankruptcy and
ruin. However, while it is certainly
desirable to dive to the bottom at once,
and realize the worst, the thing cannot
be forced too rapidly"

BATTLE SWAMP, Juue 18th, 10.
MEssRs. EDIToRs:--Why it is called
Battle Swamp, am at a loss to know
as history records no battles foughl
here, except some by persons under
the influence OF that spirit, which
once heard a celebrated temperance
orator, afterwards an M. c., describe
as being made of Lions hearts and
women's tongues, for when men drank
it they fought like lions and could
talk forever, and there is no swamp
here, there being gradual ascent
nearly all the way from Port de Posit,
and the elevation estimated at from
300 to 500 feet above the Susquehans
river. The land is fertile and most O
it under good state Of cultivation and
the crops look hourishing. We have
no improvements to note, except thai
the Telegraph Go. have erected new
poles on the road to Port. There are
quite number of former Wilmington

your city by consanguinity as well as
ecclesiastical relations. The quarterly
meeting of Rising Sun circuit Of which

preached an appropriate sermon from
Psalms 1866, "He that goetn forth
and weepeth bearing precious seec
shall doubtless come again, with re
joicing, bringing his sheaves with
him.
He said in conclusion that as he only
got around once in three months, his
opportunity was not so great as that o
his brother the Pastor who was witt
the people every week, but he wanted tt
preach more faithfully now than before
he was p. L. and hoped to bring some
sheaves to the storehouse of the Lord
