In Russia the people hardly dare
to talk about their coming event.
The Gar is bound to wed the Princess
Dolgorousky; that is regarded as certain.
The Princess was his mistress for some
years before the death of the Empress.
She was in the Palace at the time of the
Nihilist gunpowder plot. His dalliance
with her saved his life on that occasion,
for it made him late to dinner and left
the powder to explode under an empty
room. On Dolgorousky's account the Gar
banished his dying Empress and had a
bitter quarrel with his son and heir. On
her account he risked innumerable Mill
istic dangers. He wears coat of mail,
travels in ironclad railway cars and seems
insane with fear sometime, but lie trem-
bles more on Dolgorousky's account than
he does on his own. Now that the EN-
press is out of the way the Gar is de-
termined to marry his mistress. A mar
riage with the left hand" would hardly
signify change in their relations, and as
the Gar is anxious to make Princess Dol
gorousky not only his wife but his En-
press, it is whispered about the court
that he will marry in State. What COM
plications the seandalous marriage may
lead to, by estranging the rest of the I'M
perial family and bringing the Russian
nation to realization of the shame and
disgrace to which it's autocratic institu-
tions have brought it, no one can tell.
Naturally, the people are watching the
proceedings of the amorous monarch with
anxious eyes.

UNION HALL, Va. March 2. 1880.
This village IS pleasantly located in The
southeastern part OF the county, upon the
divide" between Blackwater and Piea
rivers, and also Immediately on The line Of
the Franklin and PittsylvaDia railroad
about fifteen miles from the county-seat anO
four from the line OF PittsylvaDia county
Us location is quite pleasant one, since II
is much elevated and commands an excel
lent view Of most OF the mountains in tbi.
part Of Virginia.
The construction OF the new railway
through our county seems TO have quick
ened the energies OF our citizens. Among
other things the railway has done to arouse
them from their former inactivity was the
generation of the mineral fever which has
been raging for some months in the south
ern and southeastern parts OF the county,
especially in The beautiful Valley Of Snow
creek between Chestnut and Turkeycock
mountains.
Some gentlemen who seem TO he we'll &C.
auainted with mining, &C., have been pros
pecting for ores In those sections. and,
Judging from what they have SAID con-
corning the value OF the iron and other ores
which are found here, Franklin may, per-
wealth as are some Of the counties in the
western part of Pennsylvania. They must
have some confidence, at least, in the value
of the ores. since they have advanced con-
siderable amounts OF money to tie owners
Of the land on which the ores are found.
These and similar things have so fired the
minds of many tina. some OF them believe
themselves almost 10 the immediate posses
sion OF immense fortunes.
The contractors Of the Franklin and Pitt
sylvaDia ralroad are pushing on the work
OF laying the track as fast as possible. Cap.
tain Moore, in a recent conversation, SAID
that the road will be completed by the Isl
Of April. On the night OF the 2Sth ultimo
there were only about twelve miles and a
thousand feet then 10 be finished. The new
passenger coaches that will be used on the
railway arrived here on the evening OF the

CAsIOYs THE APPREHENSION OF FIVE ADJ
OPTIONAL PARTIEs-MORE LIGHT PROBABLY
TO BE THROWN on THE CRIME.
rspccial correspondence OF the Dispatch.I
LOUISA COURTHOUSE, VA, March 3. 1880.
The horrible murder OF Mr.. Z. X. Wal
ton, a most estimabe citizen OF Louisa.
which occurred Just one year ago. was
fully reported in tie Dispatch, together
with MitcheIps confession and statement,
and the results OF the trials. The Common
wealth failed to make out case against
William Talley. and the jury hung IN the
case OF Eliza Jackson-the latter prisoner
being still in prison here. Mitchell
was found guilty and sentenced 10
be executed, but the sentence was
arrested by writ OF error awarded by the
Supreme Court until application for new
trial could be heard. pending which Mitchell
broke jail and escaped. The Dispatch OF
the I'd instant contained report OF The re-
capture OF Mitchell, which was occasioned
by his meeting with an accident which
caused the loss Of one foot. This recapture
and ihe accident doubtless has put Mitchell
I'm very hopeless spirits, and as result OF the
same a new phase is added TO this crime, for
while the officers are very "mum" and no
one will be allowed to see the prisoner. yet It
Is quite evident, and In fact generally under
stood, that Mitchell has made new state
ment since his recapture, in consequence OF
which five new parties (aIl coored) have
been apprehended aud lodged in isil.
Mitchell has been very wagering 10 re-
gard to his first statement since shortly
alter it was made, and there must be
some pIausibiIity in bis latest one,
from the fact that the morning after his re-
Judgement in Jail an officer and deputy put
on, forthwith for the apprehension OF new
parties, and what naturally would make
apy statement Mitchell makes now more
probable than any heretofore made is the
fact that be entertains little or no hope OF
being saved from the gallows. Of course
bis statement Is no evidence against these
DewIy.arrested parties, but be may be able
10 give facts which may lead to. the cohvic.
lion Of some OF them. II Is to be hoped
that the bottom OF this crime may be
ALIQUIs.

account CT his stewardship. He referred 10
The acts Of the Readjnsters as natural, and
spoke rather doubfully about the success
Of pending measures in the Legislature. He
wasn't certain thar the RIddeberger bill
would pass; thought that The removal OF
the trustees and officers OF the Miller School
was thing, OF course, but couldn't
say; didn't suppose the county judge was
committed to any line OF action.

not leara what was determined upon, eX-
cept that it is their purpose 10 start paper,
If they can get up joint stock company for
the purpose. TDey made some progress in
this direction yesterday.
