Terrified BY A Mirage.

In Watehapreague Inlet, off the county
of Aecomack, Va, about twenty fishing boats
were riding at anchor. The sun arose be-
hind thick fog bank. Presently the fog
grew thinner, until a few pale rays shot up
above, All the crews were busy ct their
lines, when shout from one of the boats
was heard. A grand transformation scene
had occurred in single minute, Appar-
emily not quarter of a mile away lay the
island of Chincoteague, with its tall white
tower, its dwellings, its treesand shrubbery,
and little boy driving flock of sheep
along the shore, and even little girl sitting
in the door of the light keepers house with
doll in her arms. In another minute an
other fog-bank rose up between them and
the shore, shutting out from their vision
their own homes. Imagining that by some
inconceivable and mysterious influence
they had been suddenly transformed a dis
lance of thirty miles from where they actu-
ally we're, they broke anchorage in the great
est CONSERVATION, many Of them, in their
fright steering directly out to sen. An hour
afterward the mist vanished, and the sun
shone out The mirage had disappeared,
but there wasno more fishing that day.

A GERMAN PRINCESS.
Queen Victoria's Prospective Granddaughter
in-Law and Her Wedding.
From the London Truth

Queen Victoria's Prospective Granddaughter
in-Law and Her Wedding.
From the London Truth.
It is said that the queen has promised
Prince William, who will be her first mar
ried grandson, and his bride, princess Au-
gusta Victoria, of Schleswig- Holstein Son
derburg- -Augustenburg, to be present at
their wedding in February next. Should
the report be true, the Prussian Court will
be honored by visit which has not been
repeated since 1858, when her Majesty's
eldest daughter was welded to sthe son of
the then Prince of Prussia. 4@s
It is we'll known that Princess Augusta
Victoria is not rich Princess. Her dowry
will be smaller than that of many a city
merchants daughter. But the money ques-
ton" was left out of consideration when the
Crown Princess of Germany looked about
for fitting helpmate for her son. Like
the Vicar Of Wakefield she has chosen q
young lady with qualities that will wear
well. Clever and yet sensible all who know
the bride admit her to be. Spiritually she
was nourished on rationalism of the kind
which the Crown Princess inherited from
her father. Her charitable qualities, the
burgerIichkeit with which she cuts bread
and butter for the little boys and girls of
Potsdam and Charlottenburg, her engaging
manner and her soft Teutonic cast of beauty.
As German is no German if not intense
ly patriotic it is not surprising that the trous-
seGu of Prince Williams bride is to be
made entirely in Germany and of German
materials. The silk will be manufactured
near the Rhine and the lace in Siesia. The
Emperors presents will, as usual, be sup
piled from Berlin.

INDIAN JUSTICE.
Execution of an Indian Murderer by Son o

800 pounds.

Execution of an Indian Murderer by Son Of
the Victim.
Mr.. Gurdon s. Hubbars, the oldest set
tier of Chicago now living, delivered
lecture last week. containing narrative Of
his first years experience in the indian
country, as an employee Of the American
Fur Company. The followingis an extract:
On the way back to Mackinaw they came
to an indian village, where he witnessed an
indian execution of murderer. The mur-
derer was Canadian indian, but had mar
ried into this tribe. In drunken spree he
killed a son Of the chief, and as he had not
property to ransom himself he would have
to suffer death, and fed from justice. He
took his family and quietly left camp for
distant part of the country, where he en-
gagged in trapping with the expectation of
making sufficient money to pay the ransom
in the spring. He was not successful, and
nearly starved 1t was the indian custom
to visit vengeance on the relations Of the
felon in case he escaped, and the chief had
threatened to take the life of one of the
brothers of the murderer's wife. The
brothers knew the whereabouts Of their
sister and her husband, but were bound by
an oath not to reveal the hiding place. To
save themselves one of the brothers prom
ised to hunt for and find the murderer, or
give up his own life. He went to his
brother-i law and told him what had been
done, and, like brave man, the murderer
promined to return.
1t was the morning of this return that the
company of soldiers and traders visited the
village, and out in an open space sat the
chief and his family, while the tribe were
gathered around. In the distance was heard
the dull sound of the Indian drum and the
death song chanted by the murderer 40 he
advanced to his execution. His family were
with him, and they marched up to the chief.
The Indian handed to the chief the knife,
saying: Chief, here is the knife with which
l murdered your son. He provoked me by
calling me coward and an old woman, and
l killed him. l am now ready to die by the
same weapon"
The chief took the knife, handed it to
his son, and told him to avenge his brothers
death. There was not a murmur as the
young Indian stepped ont in front of the
murderer, who stood calm and resolute.
The knife was lifted in silence and plunged
into the breast Of the condemned man, and
then Withdrawn, followed by the hot life
blood. There was not groan or sound
made, but the Indian stood for moment
while his blood poured from the wound
and then fell dead. The wife and children
had kept quiet until he was dead, and then
threw themselves on the body in paroxysm
of grief. The chief approached the woman
and said her husband had been a brave mar
and died like brave. He then adopted
her and her children, telling them to make
their home with the tribe q sas II ss
Mr.. Hubbard said he should never forge
this first execution which he looked upor
as so horrible.

CAPT. PAYNE, at the head Of eight COM
panies of settlers, numbering several thou
sands, are on the borders of the Indian
territory, where they are confronted by
company of federal cavalry. Capt. Payne
informed the military commander that it
was the intention to move into the public
lands of Oklahana atany hazard, unless for
bidden by congress. Most of Payne's par
ty are from the drouthy region of western
Kansas, where the settlers have been liter
ally starved out for several years past. The
southern border has also been almost a bar
rem waste, farmers being unable to raise
sufficient seed for the next planting, Wo-
men and children follow their meagre out
fits, and present pitiful, destitute condi-
ton Families with barely sufficient means
to provide a months subsistence for them
selves and stock, have joined the colony in
the hope of getting fresh start on the pro-
life lands of Oklohama. 1t is estimated
that 500 to 1900 white settlers are already
on the public lands in the Territory, and a
majority of those who have been expelled
have retraced their steps as soon as dis
charged from custody. The situation is
deemed very critical

The Minnesota State Prison.

The inspectors and officers of the state prison
have prepared their biennial reportfor sub
mission, through the governor, to the forth
coming legislature, from which the follow
ing facts and figures have been collected: The
inspectors report that there are 297 cells in
the prison, 23S of which are occupied, leav-
ing only hfty-nine vacant. Before the ex-
piration of the next two years every availa-
BILE cell will be in use, and hence an appro-
priation should be made to increase the ca
pacity of the prison.
The inspectors estimate the amount of
money needed for the next two years as fol-
lows:
For extensions necessary for 100 cells $35, 900
One thousand feet of wall. .. $4,000
Furnishing, enlargement of hospital, 5000
current expenses, 1881, ,........... $4,000
Current expenses, 1882. ... $4,000
Total for two years. s.............. .$17S, 900
The inspectors say that enough cell room
should be provided to accommodate 500 in
mates, after which the prison can be made
nearly If not quite self sustaining, and NO
more money will be needed for the enlarge
ment of the building and grounds. Before
that time arrives more suitable location
for another and larger prison should be Sc
lected, when various Improvements in the
way of utilizing convict labor can be
adopted.
