In a trial in Germany recently a curl
Gus document was produced, which was
called forth by the marriage of the Count
de Sulz, a Roman Catholic, to Agatha,
Countess of Hanau, a Protestant, in the

groom solemnly swore to respect his fu-
ture wife's religious views, and signed,
sealed, and delivered a deed to that eff

terms; II, Rudolph, Count of Sulz,

Trouble Impending.

WASHINGTON, December 12-The Ar
gentine Confederacy has within a year
taken possession and organized under
territorial government certain disputed
portions OF country which have always
been claimed by Brazil. The brother Of
the president of the Argentine conteder-
alton has been appointed president of
the territory, and the army is being put
on a wal footing with the intention, it
is understood, of defending 10y force the
possession of the territory, by which
they thus summarily set aside the claim
Of Brazil. The Brazilians are also put
ting their army in shape for possible
hostilities, and have been buying ships
of war from England. A Gentleman
who should be we'll informed as to the
temper of the Brazilian government,
says Brazil will resist this quiet assump-
ton of the control of the disputed terri
tory, which will lead to a conflict be-
tween the rival powers.

Gen. Gibbons Escape.

WASHINGTON, Dee. Cen. John
Gibbon has just narrowly escaped a
court martial. He is the colonel Of the
Seventh Infantry, which has just been
moved from the department of Dakota.
Gen. Gibbon has long held that when
the general commanding the depart
ment where he was stationed left it, he
was entitled to act as commander by
virtue of his rank. The war department
held otherwise, and finally braced itself
with an opinion from the attorney gen.
eral. But Gibbon persisted, and when
Gen. Terry recently paid a visit to his
home in Connecticut, he tried again to
exercise authority. Gen. Sheridan then
summarily ordered his regiment over
into the department of the Platte, and
reported to Gen. Sherman that Gibbon
ought to be court martialed. Sherman
took the same view, but MI. Lincoln
decided to let Gibbon off with a warm
ing that it must never happen again.

GREAT FIRE. AT KINGSTON.
Half the City Burned-Loss About Thirty
Million Dollars.

NEW YORK, December 1.-THE fol-
lowing dispatch was received from
Kingston, Jamaica, to-day: The bust
ness quarter of Kingston was burned
yesterday. Loss, six million pounds
sterling. Hundreds are homeless. The
wharves, warehouses, stores, banks, and
supplies are gone. The fire originated
neal the water front. The sea breeze
that prevails during the evening famed
the flames. The fire extended about one
and a quarter miles along the water
front, from the wharf of the Royal Mail
Steamship Company TO the Atlas Lines
wharf. Nearly all the buildings were
one and two stories high and made Of
wood.
Richard Sanderson, agent of the Will
son Steamship Company, one of whose
boats, the Belize, plies between New
York and jamaica, said he thought the
fire a God send to Kingston. 1t was a
miserable town, he continued, filled
principally with lazy, shittless negroes.
Their wives do all the work while they
attend to the home consumption of rum.
We have to depend upon women en-
tirely for the coaling of our steamers.
The fire las destroyed the business
portion of the town and all the Govern
ment offices. The Government officials

they have not lost mu h..

STOCK ITEMS.

The idea that speculation has been a
potent factor in advancing the price of
beef cattle 40 per cent. in five years is
vigorously secuted by the Live Stock
Journal. Aware of the convincing ar
gUmental force Of mathematics the editor
sums up the real causes in plain figures.
He says that better markets and trans
porting facilities add 40 per cent: i'm
provement in quality of cattle adds 40
per cent; increase in population over in
crease in cattle adds 25 per cent; in
Ct creased beef consumption adds 5 per
cent; and the greater security to proper
ty adds 80 per cent. This makes up the
total of 40 per cent. As for speculation
IL has nothing to do with it. It ismere-
ly cheap money seeking a class of invest
ment, which used to be considered too
uncertain and insecure to warrant such
investments.
An exchange gives the following des-
cription of the refrigerator cars now in
use on the Northern Pacific transporting
the carcasses Of Montana beeves to east
ern markets: "Outwardly they are
smoothly finished box ears, bright yell
low in their color and lettered with a
long advertisement of their mission.
The bottom, sides and top are built to
protect the interior temperature from
outside changes, and the door is SO con
structed as to close air tight. A glass
case is set in one door to expose a ther-
mometer from which the. interior tenn
p%erature can be a%scertained without
opening the door. Recently on q trial
rip, cars without ice) having been last
opened at night, the temperature inside
was three degrees freezing, while outside
and in open cars the temperature was q
few degrees above freezing. The ice
boxes are at each end and leave a clear
space of 27x8 feet. Ventilating fues of
varied construction keepthe temperature
within the car equal at all parts and
