tinues to run, and the water has reached
the tracks running north from, the Relay
depot and between that point and the
bridge Junction. This can be quickly
remedied, however, by building wall
along the eastern side OF the tracks which
no doubt would be done at once, rs these
tracks are important for the passage OF re-
pair trains at work still further north.

Wrongs y Devoted wife Until Her
Mind BeeOmeS Deranged.

URBANA, o., JOne IA very SAD case
Of insanity is reported from what is called
Pretty Prairie east OF this city. Mrs.
Rev. Prince has shown signs OF insanity Tor
some time, but not until Saturday last did
she show signs OF being vicious or doing
herself bodily harm, but on that day she
was discovered in the act OF doing herself
injury, and a guard was placed over her.
ON Sunday, to add to the horrors OF the af-
fair, her husband, Rev. NJ. Prince, gave
such evidence of approaching insanity that
a watch was put over him. He was OBJ
served TO be
Wandering Around the woods.
A guard has been kept over them since.
The cause Of the lady's insanity is said to
be abuse by her husband. She is said to
have been a lady of very fine qualities,
Mr.. Prince is a Methodist minister, but re.
Gently has given his attention to farming,
having purchased the farm on which he
lives. and for which he is in debt, which IS
one of the causes of his trouble. Your
correspondent visited the Prince home
stead, four miles east OF the city, this
evening, and as he neared the house he
could hear the piteous cries of the untor-
innate woman, shrieking: LET me go to
those chains" On arriving at the house,
be found several neighbors administering
TO her wants, but she at times became
Perfectly Viei9us
and required several men to hold her. The
statement OF Mrs. Princes father, Mr..
Deaton, was substantially as follows:
They were married some twelve years
ago and two weeks after his marriage he
began 10 show evidence of being jealous OF
her. and charged her with being intimate
with other men and has kept this up con.
tinously ever since. During all THIS periou
| of their married life he has kept up thus
| charge of uniaithfulness. Her reason has
at length deserted her. Last April boy
| about fourteen years OF age, who was
| working ON the farm for Prince, was taken
| out in the field and asked If he did not love
| Mrs. Prince, and was

| tv is fraud and that general cussedneSs IS
| what ails him, and that by MS conduct ne

Children by Express.

Last Friday the Southern Express
Company transferred here two little
children, en- route from Rock Hill,
North Carolina to Summit, Missis>
sippi. 1t seems that several years
ago a man named Schoolfield, from
Pike county, Mississippi, went to
Brazil with his family. His wife died
there and his health was so bad he
started back to his native State and
died on board the vessel, and left
two little orphans about four and six
years old. The poor little innocent
creatures aroused the sympathy OF Il
passenger on board the vessel, and
he took them on to his home in North
Carolina. He found out that their
father was Mason and their old
grand father, now living near Sum
nit, Mississippi is also Mason.
The old gentleman has home for
the children but was to feeble to
make the journey after them, hence
he aroused au interest with the
Masonic Paternity in the matter and
through j. L. Power, Grand Socre-
tary of the Grand Lodge of Missis
sippi, negotiated with the Southern
Express Company for the transpor
tation of them. The little creatures
passed here Friday morning in
charge of the Express men as happy
and bright as if no care had ever
shadowed their brow. - JackS0a

A Useful Invention by IL Nissis,
sippi Woman.

From the Jackson Clarion.
We find the following statement in
late Washington Post. We will
preface it with the remark that the
lady inventor is sister of the late
gallant Gen. Van Dorm, and mother
Of Marshall Miller, Esq, prominent
member of the Vicksburg bar:
To the long and honored list of wo-
men inventors, reference to whom
was made in the Sunday Post a few
weeks ago, may be added the name
of Mrs. f. V. D. Miller, Of Vicksburg
Miss, a lady whose familiarity with
the culture Of cotton has suggested
to her a contrivance that promises to
greatly facilitate the picking of the
fleecy staple. 1t is simple structure,
operated somewhat like a pair of scis-
sors, with semi-spehrical nippers in
stead of blades, by which the cotton
may be dextrousl y separated from
its calyx, and with much greater ease
and rapidity than by the fingers.
This little harvester, as they call it at
the patent Office, will be a great boon
to the grand army Of cotton pickers,
and Mrs. Milleris to be congratulated
upon having secured official recogni-
ton of her valuable invention.

for the possession Of trinket "the

He politely concealed his pain till he
returned home, when, ON removing
his garments, blood was found trick
ling from the wound. Next morning
the lacerated arm was swollen to
twice its natural size, and he was laid
up for several days. The St. Joseph

to another, and a worse one of Il

young gentleman actually died
from a playful bite on his thumb by
young lady. The paper remarks:
