FOR AND ABOUT WOMEN.

The law of England recognizes at last the
rights OF a married woman IN her own prop
erty. The old doctrine of English law was
that wife was merged in her husband, and
except as part OF him could hold no prop
erty of any kind. Under the married wo-
mems property bill; which was recently en-
acted BY Parliament, all property belonging
or coming 10 m married woman will be her
separate property as absolutely as if she
were unrn arried.
In departing for his English home, Mr..
"Tug" Wilson has left America in awful
suspense, and it is not at all clear how the
people will be able to bear up under it. His
return depends entirely upon his wife. IF
she's willing" says he, ''Ill come back sure.
One thing is pretty certain, if she says no,
I'll have 10 stay. I won't forget, though, to
praise the blooming country up, and tell her
its the best 1 ever lived in" Happy Mrs
Wilson, who can vanquish with a nod the
hero whom Sullivan failed to knock out in
four rounds ..--
That the youthful wives of the Hindoos
are much under the personal jurisdiction of
their mothers in-law is peculiar fact. APP
palling consequences have been brought to
light in case of suicide in Bombay. The
wife, child in sge, who committed self-de-
struction, was driven to it by persecution at
the hands of her husbands mother. The
of female Hindoo suicides are those of women
between the ages of twelve and twenty, and
that the cause is, in nearly every case, the
despotism of mother-in-law.
Mrs. Spillem is a fashionable Austin lady
who drives a wild horse 10 her buggy. She
also drives people wild in their efforts TO get
out of her way, for her driving is like the
driving of Jehu, the son of Nimshi, for she
driveth furiously. Her driving is moreover
as uncertain a verdict of petit jury or
the result OF Louisiana election. Nobody
in the heavens above, or in the earth below,
or in the waters under the earth, can posi-
bly, guess in what direction that woman is
going to drive until the wheels pass over his
body. Then he knows all about it, but as
a general thing the information comes too
late TO be of any comfort to anybody, except
perhaps, to surviving heirs.-Ierds Strings.
Nellie Pickett, native of Lafayette
county, Mo, died on the 18th of August at
Fort Sumner, N. NJ, at the age of twenty
five. Few as her years were she had seen q
good deal Of wild life. Nellie married Tom
Pickett and went with him to New Mexico,
after they had lived a year in Texas. They
both Joined the band of 'Billy the Kid," and
she, being splendid horsewoman, crack
shot, and both vivacious and pretty, is said
TO have ruled the gang with despotic sway.
After Pickett was killed she became the wife
of Bawdry, the second in command, and
when be was killed she found a third affinity
in "Billy the Kid" Many stories are told
of her exploits, whether acting as 8 spy in
female attire or charging at the head Of the
band, dressed in the buckskin male attire of
the plains.
Memphis daily appeal. [volume] (Memphis, Tenn.) 1847-1886, 1882-09-07

COLONEL LEON TEoUsDALE, of Jackson,
for many years one of the editors of the
APPEAL, is in the city, and will remain for
few days. Though not fully restored to
vigorous health he is as cheerful as ever,
and still stropg enough to give attention to
business and TO msiniain an active interest
an the affairs of the State he has served with
answering fidelity. As superintendent of
public instruction Colonel Tronsdsle largely
helped to put our common school system on
its present basis of efficiency, and planted
the seeds for its steady. growth, and it is
subject still t7piy deep regret that he was not
continued dan pfice tosHhich he had grown
and for which he had many of the most de-
sirable gifts and talents. No purer or hon
ester man ever engaged in public affairs, and
Tennessee has never had one who more con-
scientiously hewed to the line. In peace
and war Colonel Trousdale has preserved
high integrity, pure and uusullied.

COLUMBUS, MISS.
Crops Injured by Protracted Rafns-An
Independent Candidate for Congress.

Special Correspondence of the Appeal
COLUMBUS, MISS, September 4.-This is
the first clear day we have had for two
weeks, and there has been more or LEES rain
every day during that period. We hear
many complaints of the damage done the
crops by these continuous rains, particularly
from the black-land belt west of us. One
large planter says that his cotton crop will be
twenty per cent. less than it would have
been but for the rains; that his corn has, in
many places, fallen to the ground and
sprouted, and that he is only one of many of
his section that are in the same condition;
but, should we have favorable season this
fall, we will make something over an average
crop.
The Hon. I. C. Lyon has entered the con-
gressional race in this district, as an indie
pendent, in opposition to Muldrow, our
present congressman. He made his opening
speech at Saltillo last Saturday, where he
spoke for three hours to very respectable
crowd, composed mainly OF whites. Consid-
cradle dissatisfaction is said to exist among
the Democrats in some of the northern parts
of the district, particularly in Lee county,
and that almost any independent may expect
at least respectable following in that por-
under Alcorp, but was removed by Ames,
farming, although occasionally practicing
and, should he be defeated and have any
thing like an excuse for contesting the cleo
ton, he will have a considerable chance of
occupying Mr.. Muldrow's seat, as the contest
would be submitted to Republican House.
