The dead and mutilated body Of Mrs. Nit
chell, beautiful young bride of three months,
found by her husband on the roadside
near her home in the vicinity of the village of
Newman, forty miles south of Atlanta, Ga.
She had been brutally ravished. Her throat
was cut from ear to ear, and her body was COW
cred with bruises, many of them being bitten,
the imprint showing the absence Of a tooth.
The disturbed condition Of the ground for
fifty yards showed that she had engaged in q
desperate struggle. Bloodhounds were taken
to the spot and put on the trail of the mur-
derer. They traced the scent to Hogansville,
where the party came upon a young man
named Waldrop, who, after arrest, confessed
the crime. On the night Of July 4, one hun
dred undisguised men, well armed entered
the town determined, as they said, to have the
prisoner or destroy the jail. The jailer yielded
the keys, when waldrop was secured and re
turned to the spot where the shocking crime
was committed, which place was reached IN
two days, when waldrop was tied to stake
and roasted alive. Waldrop was only twenty
three years old, but had five wives living.

The Monetary Conference.

Significant declarations were made at sit
ting of the Monetary Conference by Thurman,
American Delegate, who stated, that though
speaking in his own name, he believed, he was
rejecting the feeling of his government and
nation. He expressed the conviction that tho
offers of England and Germany would not
warrant the United States in allowing the free
coinage of silver; the United States, he said,
did not insist on immediate and unqualified BIZ
mctalism, but were ready to accept approaches
thereto, believing it would eventually prevail,
but they could not incur the risk of an alternat
ing standard through the conflicting or inhar-
monious action of other States.

A prominent person at Seymour, Indiana,
whose sole object seems to be that of collecting
autographs, wrote JEFF Davis on the subject of
the attempted assassination of President Gar
field, and CHOPPED he would reply by letter, Civ
ing his views" Mr.. Davis did reply in his own
handwriting, and among other things, said
Il will not, like the telegram you cite in regard
to the attempted assassination Of the Presi-
dent, say, am thankful the assassin was not
Southern man, but will say regret that he
is an American. The crime, black enough in
itself, has deeper dye from the mercenary
motive which seems to have prompted it. I
sincerely trust the President may recover, and
that the startling event will arouse the people
to the Consideration of q remedy for the de-
moralization which a wild hunt after Office il

The latest report from Washington concern

is still improving. The pulse was ninety-four

LONGLNG&.

In mist and gloom the daylight swiftly dies
The city lamps shine out along the street
No vesper glory charms the weary eyes;
No leafy murmurs make the cleaning sweet.
All, me! the tranquil evening hours. she
cried,
" Amid the rushes by the riverside
"The busy feet for ever come and go;
The sounds of work and strife are never still.
Oh, for the grassy pastures green and low.
The strawberry blossom and the daffodil!
How peacefully the mellow sunshine died
Amid the rushes by the riverside
81 loved the toll amid those reedy shades.
AT sunrise or at sunset, gay and light:
The song of waters and the laugh of maids
Come back to me in happy dreams at night.
. blessed hours when, free from care and
pride,
l bound the rushes by the riverside
"This is no dwelling-place for hearts like
mine
Hearts that are born for freedom and for
rest.
All, me ! to sec the marshy meadows shine
In the low sunlight of the saffron west
| will go home to find my peace" she cried,
" Amid the rushes by the riverside"

Brace Up.

"Brace upp We like that slang
phrase. We like it because there is
lots of soul in it. You never knew a
mean, stingy, snivel-souled man to walk
up to an afflicted neighbor, slap him on
the shoulder, and tell him to .'brace up. I"
1t is the big hearted, open-handed,
whole-souled fellow that comes along
when you are cast down, and squares off
in front of you, and tells you, "That
won't do, old fellow-brace upp It is
he that tells you good story, and makes
you laugh in spite of yourself; that
lifts the curtain that darkens your soul,
and tells you to look ont and see the
light. 1t is he that reminds you that
there never was brilliant sunset with
out clouds. He may not tell you so in
just such words, but he will make you
"brace up" and see the silver lining for
yourself.

Settling the War.

In the Winter of 1864, Pony Noun
tain, in the Shenandoah Valley, was full
of game, and Federals and Confederates
used to shoot squirrels and trap rabbits
when off picket duty. Care was taken
to avoid each other, but many collisions
occurred, and more than one poor fell
lows bones are bleaching under the
dark pines to-day. One day a member
of the Sixth Michigan Cavalry encoun-
tered "Johnny" face to face as they
both turned a thicket. Both had guns
on their shoulders, and both were too
surprised to speak for some time. Then
the Confederate yelled out:
"Say, you Yank, what are You down
there for ?"
To put down the rebellion"
-" You can't do it, no how.
g Bet you $40 We can.
"Look here, !" said the "reb," as he
came closer, and put down his gun to
indulge in gestures, "In play We a
game of euchre to see which side Is
going to whip"
This was agreed to, and pack of
cards was produced. The Yank" got
the first deal and made a point The
"reb" took the second and made a
march. At the next deal the score was
even. and pretty soon they stood four to
four. The play was careful, but the
Confederacy had the winning cards,
and as the "Johnny" took the last trick
with an ace, he jumped up and yelled j:
81 knew i'll knew it Now, Yank,
are ye squar' ?"
Tam"
Then go back aud stop this ere
war 'cording to agreement, and mount
yer critter and go home. Whoop
'Rah fur me knew there must be
some way to settle this dog-gone war if
l could only git beyond the pickets %

nant over the report from Salt Lake
City that the governor had refused to
issue him certificate of election upon
the ground of imperfect proof Of his
being naturalized citizen. This ac-
tion on the part of the governor is de-
nounced here to-day by men of both
parties as great outrage. High local
authority, in speaking of it to-day, say
the governor had only one duty to per-
form in the case, and that was to award
the certificate Of election to the man in
dicated by the universal returns as hav-
ing the largest number of votes. 1t
was none of his business to decide
whether the man receiving the majority
of votes was a murderer, foreign born
citizen, or in any way consider his per-
sonal qualifications or their lack. Con-
gress alone is judge of the qualifications
or its members. For the governor to
usurp the powers of congress is to dis
play great Ignorance or else DISPOSE
ton to persecute. the mormon represen-
tatiye under cover Of the recent demand
that the polygamists of Utah should no
longer be tolerated. Members in talk
ing about this subject to-day, say Cam
non will not have a ghost of a show in
the next congress. A certificate of
election has already been issued to
Campbell, who received but very
small portion of the number Of votes
east. Cannon is put in the position of
contestant, and with an unfriendly
committee, he can be kept dancing in
the iobbies Of congress without any de.
cision until the 4th of March
