h,m go out of Lady Mazops the night g.:
wh:cb she was murdered. Berry said that
he lad been killing cat.
On these circumstances he was con-
demned to the torture and afterward to be
broken alive on the wheel. On being tor
tured he confessed that, by direction and
order of one Nine. dc Savoniere-Laly
Mazers daughter-he and lie Brun had un-
dertaken to rob and murder Lady Mazel
and that Le Brun murdered her while he
stood at the door to prevent surprise.
In truth of this declaration he persisted
until he was brought to the place OF exc
cution, when, begging to speak with one of
the judges, no ecanted what he had said
against Le Brun and Mime de Saw
onlere, and confessed that he
came to Paris on the Wednesday before
the murder was committed. On the Friday
evening he went into tho house, and, un-
perceived, got into one of the lofts, where
he lay till Sunday morning, subsistinp on
apples, and brea'l which he had in his
pockets; that about IL o'clock on Sunday
morning. when he knew the lady had gone
to mass, he stole down to her chamber. and
the door being open, he tried to get under
the bed, but it being too low he returned
to the loft, pulled of his coat and his waist
coat. and returned to the chamber second
time in his shirt; he then got under the
bed, where he continued till the afternoon,
when Lady Mazel went to church, knowing
she could not come back soon, he left
his hiding place, and being - in
commoded with his hat, he threw it under
the bed, and made a cap of 4 napkin which
!ay on chair, secured the bell strings, and
then sat down by the fire, where he contin-
ued till he heard her coach drive into the
courtyard, when he again got under the
bed and remained there; that the Lady
Mazel having been in bed about an hour,
he got from under it and demanded her
money, she began to cry out and attempted
to ring. upon which he stabbed her, and
she resisting with all her strength, he re-
peated his stabs until she was dead: that

four judges to whose qualification there
could be no legal objection, and left Mr..

The Governor, when the Legislature is not
in session, has the power to fiji vacancies
in the court. In this instance the pro tem
appointment of the Governor will last only
until the 1st Of January, 1888, when the
new court goes into office.
Governor CAMERON is OF course at lib

SWindIinC and Forgery.

BALTIMORE, MD., August 25.-During
the present summer number OF checks
have been received at the National Bank OF
Baltimore from banks in different places in
New England and New York. all OF which
were forgeries, but which have been
cashed by firms or by the banks transmit
ting them. The checks purport to be
signed by w. +. Norris a. Co., WELL
known commission house Of this city, who
keep an account with the National Bank Of
Baltimore, and are identical with checks
used by that firm. with the Government
tax stamp on the face and the name Of the
firm printed on the margin. The checks
are usually for the sum Of 800. To-day
one was received through a New York
bank which had been passed on Baldwin,
Sexton Il Peterson, iewelry firm OF that
city. The signatures are evidently an imi-
lation Of the genuine signature OF the Bal
timore firm, but so far all the checks,
amounting to over a dozen, have been de-
tccted by the bank here. Ii is the request
OF the bank that some OF the parties de-
irauded may identify and prosecute this
rowing swindler, who is most probably
from this vicinity. The checks are all
drawn payable to the "order OF currency"
and the bank here thinks that so many
checks would not have been paid without
identification somewhere.

Inefficient Mail Service.

The following is special to the New
York Herald, dated Natural Bridge, Va,
August 25th:
The regular guests, tourists, and resi-
dents here are seriously Inconvenience by
irregularities in the arrival OF the mails.
The trains on two railways equidistant
from this point come regularly on time
every day, morning and evening, but for
the last month the mail has been persist
emily carried to other points on the
line OF the railways, reaching here
frequently several days after it was
due. The Richmond papers, which
should arrive here every afternoon OF pub
lication, are frequently two and three days
old when received. Several complaints
have been made about these irregularities
and the neglect in the Post-Ollice Depart
ment at Washington without any apparent
result. II is believed that the delays are
caused by carelessness in the office OF the
Superintendent of Railroad Mail Service at
Washington, or at the post-oflice at Rich
mond. The constant recurrence OF these
delays and the persistence with which they
are made warrant the opinion that they are
maliciously intentional.
[Can't something be done to give us bet
ter mail service in Virginia? 1t would
seem that both the railroads and Post-Of
flee Department are greatly at fault

Ayircinian,s Visit to West Point.

WEST POINT AND THE VIRGINIA MILITARY
INSTITUTE COMPARED-A NEW CODE OF
HONOR, ETC.
NEW YORK, August, 1882.
For more than thirty years Cranston

friend and home OF the southern men who
travel for pleasure and comfort. He Ea>

COZZen's Hotel, ut West Point, one OF the
most charming summer hotels in this coun-
try. 1t stands upon the crest OF rocky
promontory on the Hudson river, COM

Yesterday evening with friends from the
South we took the evening boat for West
Point. | had not been there IN twenty
five years, and was not prepared for the
development of the natural beauties OF
that famous national locality. For miles
the hills and the woods on both sides OF
grounds, and along the graded roads fine
equipagcs roll quite equal TO the best in
Richmond.
We arrived in time for dress-parade,
which we went up in the omnibus 10 see.
The music was very good. The parade
was conducted with great precision and
primness, but not equal to the drill OF
many volunteers, and quite inferior to our
own corps drill at the Virginia Military In
stitute.
The commands OF the Cadet officials
were uttered in an affected manner, unin-
telligible to any but those who knew be-
forehand what was intended to be said.
They may get rid OF that after some real
soldering.
There had been fist-fight between boy
from the South and boy from the North.
The southern boy was severely punished.
They have new code of honor amongst
them now, illustrated on this occasion.
The cause Of quarrel was between cadets
OF third and fourth classes. The two bows
who had quarrelled did not fight each
other; but, as there was apparent difference
In their physique, the class TO which the
lesser boy belonged selected q champion to
maintain his honor and that OF the class.
This mode OF settling questions OF the sort
is full OF comfort to the little boy who don't
fight. So far as / could see, it is the only
advance In intelligence the Point has ex-
pericnced In many years. Its natural re-
suit Is the ethics OF the prize-ring.

Arthur's Fatal Mistake.

The Stalwart Republicans OF the North
are beginning to rightly estimate the great
error of the Administration in its compro-
missing alliance with MALONE. The first
suspicions that the move was impolitic, aud
calculated to iniure the Stalwart chances
OF perpetuating their power in the admin
istration of the Government, and which
found slight suggestive utterance in
few Republican journals, have
grown slowly but surely into convic-
tions that are now crystalized into
outspoken and convincing argument. The
coalition is nothing more than the union
OF the worst elements OF the two great
national parties, i'm which the scheming
politician plays upon the readily-aroused
passions Of Ignorance. The principles of
neither is identical with the party it de-
serted. They have no principles. Nor are
they actuated by other than the baser mo.
tives. Their incentive to coalition is two
fold. The one seeks by this base union to
filch from the public purse the where
with to satisfy his unworthy appetite;
while the other, deluded into the belief
that through it and it alone political
and social liberty will be guaranteed, pre-
sents the spectacle Of ignorance contami-
mated by dishonesty. And when the fac
tors of the unholy alliance feel themselves
called upon to act on principle and pro-
nounce their real position as TO great ma
tional issues. where will they stand? When
the delegates are sent TO the two great
conventions which are to elect stand
ard-bearers for the respective national
parties, think you they will be in either ease
chosen from the bastard offspring Of any
section? No. Those in both parties who
were straightforward in the enunciation OF
party principles and honest in acting up to
them will have the say In the nominations
OF the great councils, and the aspirants for
the highest Office in the gift OF the people
who think TO forward their chances by
pandering TO Coalitionists will find them
selves sadly in the yocatiye.
The Philadelphia Record speaks truly
when 1t says:
II is unnecessary to point out the ineon-
sistency OF the men who demand a rigid
support Of the Irregular" nominees in
Pennsylvania, but who coquette with the
mammon Of Independence in Virginia.
Consistency Is not one Of the political vil-
tues, and the staIwarts sheer contemptll-
eusly at it. But when free lance Is ele-
yated TO commanding position, and
when booty Is the reward Of the |
men who desert their colors, the |
triumph OF the generaI-in-chief who APP
proves such results becomes highly i'm

very thing, the cruelty OF the act would
hardly have been greater than IL was when
II Systematically set at work to deliver the
old Dominion, bound hand and foot, into
the clutches Of the repudiator and po-
litical freebooter Malone. The decent
norton OF the people OF Virginia claim,
and with a show OF reason that we are not
prepared TO gainsay, that no other State in
the Union is cursed with such loathsome
species OF Boss tyranny as they are. That
appears to be true. There are bosses in
plenty i'm other States, but there are none
more sly or cunning than Malone. none
more desperately INSCRIPTIONS, and none
who in the past two years have had che as

Hardly day passes when he does not give
some new proof, not only OF his ill-gotten
power, but of the detestabe methods and
motives which help to defile his use OF it.
He has no Use for men OF character or men
OF ability. From his relations to the Re-
publican party and the Administration he
is almost absolute i'm the distribution OF
patronage, and he is filling up the list OF
Appointments for Federal ratification with
the most abandoned political tools to be
found in the whole breadth OF the Com
monwealth. He is taking men from the
gutter to displace men OF ability and good
regulations i'm the post-oflices and other
positions OF responsibility and profit.
Like Arab Bey, he is calling around
his standard elements that he can keep
and make effective by opportunities for
loot and lust. He i without the instincts

tween Daniel Korean, who has been en-
plOyed at the Water-workS dam, and John

bly, fatally injured. The only particulars
OF the affair which we were able to gather
were that Korean went into Tanners store
for the purpose OF making some purchases,
when Il controversy arose in regard TO a
former Indebtedness. After some an
gry words had passed between the
parties they came to blows, when
Tanner struck Korean in the right
side of the forehead with Gt is sup

left the store and walked to his home, near

was stained with blood, with him. Upon
