An Astonishing Memorial.

Probably the most disrespectful and other.
wise remarkable memorial ever presented to
Congress Is that OF q man styling himself
"disinherited Citizen" who, through Mr..
Sherman, laid before the Senate yesterday a
"prayer" that Congress "investigate, repeal
and resume the So-called Des Moines lands in
Iowa, and forever blot out the stigma now
resting on the good name and fair faAne OF the
United States Government" This document
alleges, among other things, that Z" In the face
OF innumerable memorials, circulars and let
ters OF the citizens OF Iowa TO honorable gen
tlemen in Congress, setting forth substantial
cause for repeal Of the acts of plunder,
yet the infamous acts OF robbery are allowed
TO remain on the statutes to enable the band of
official thieves TO rob and murder the citizens
by the slow process OF so-called law and
order. An astonishing part of this trans
action Is the fact that Senator Sherman should
have allowed such an offensive paper to be
laid before the Senate at all. He surely could
not have been ignorant of the contents, be-
cause the "memorial Is accompanied by n
private letter TO Mr.. sherman, in which the
memoffalist, writing from Barnum, Webster
County, Iowa, subscribes himself "a victim,
George Crilly," and requests the Senator TO
present the memorial and shave 1t printed In
they run in the mad career OF
spOllatlon, devastation, raplne and robbsry OF

GRoroN, August 30.-Before the
war Robert Stafford, a millionaire
planter, owned two islands of the
coast of Georgia which we're noted for
the superior cotton they produced
the famous Sea island variety. On
tho larger of the two islands Mr.. Stat
ford lived. He fell In love with a
creole girl who was n of his sllves,
and married her. She was educated
and refined in manners. Six children
were the fruit of the marriage Two
boys died in their youth. just be-
fore the breaking out of the civil war,
| Stafford, who noted the gathering
| clouds, came north and built a magnif-
iceut dwelling among the pastures "A
few miles north OF this village, on the
swelling bank of the Thames river.
Then he returned to the aouth, and
thence sent his wife and daughters to
the northern home. Here they were
surrounded by every luxury. The
interior of the house was very line
and the grounds we.e a triumph of
the gardeners skill. Beautiful and
rare plants and ~shrubbery diversified

tAiRs played among marble statues,

pretentious society, and suffers were
not a few. One slater married Fred
Palmer, of New London. The union
was not a happy one, aud a separation
soon followed. Another sister was
wooded to Commodore Brady, of New
York, The honeymoon was passed in
Paris, where the bride shone as a
society star for a few months. Soon
after The couple were divorced. The
youngest sister was married to a New
York gentleman, and is living happily
with her husband. Adelaide, another
sister, has lived during the past eigh,
years at Paris. A few months ago she
met Count Cybulski, who is connected
with the diplomatic service of Russia,
and about a month ago she became his
wife, the nuptials being celebrated in
the church of Notre Dame. She sent
wedding cards to her friends in Gro

of pasteboard, perfumed, adorned
with the regal ooronet, and bearing
the words in Italian; Countess Cy-
