quaintance was so much pleased with their voices that he sent them quantity of good music and induced some philsnthreplc and wealthy ladies of Boston to interest themselves in these gifted children. Rose, the younger, soon abandoned all thoughts Of a public career and got married. The elder student with success went upon the operatlc boards and finally accepted European en- 9agement. She is now the Countess d'Edla, the morganatic wife of the ex-King of Por- tueal, Dom Fernando. She accompanied him to Paris when he came to visit this city few days ago. Her early friend sent her his card with request for an interview, which was instantly accorded, and he was most warmly received The Countess, so far from endeav- bring to efface the personality of Elise Hen- sler talked of the old days in Springfield, asked after her Boston friends, told of her operatic success and finally sent for her royal spouse that she might present to him the kindly fellow countryman who had befriend- ed her in her youth. The only reproach that the Portugese ever have brought against thelr ex- -King's American wife is her somewhat un. due assumption of royal prerogatives and privileges, such as her causing her brother, when he visited her at Lisbon few years ago, to be received with all the state and for mality usually accorded to 8 prince upon his travels.

The Soldiers Monument.

To the Editor of the JOURNAL AND COURIER:
 Although the idea of erecting the soldiers monument st the terminus of *ke Farasm drive on the plateau of East Rock, as referred to by Professor s. E. Baldwin at the commit tee meeting of Friday evening last, may not have been entirely new to every one, yet it was new to me. Nothing which have heard on that question has appeared to me so ap- propriate. It would dignity and add to tho attraction of the city's magnificent park. If erected on the upper aEeen if would be but one-althoagh distinct and peculiar one of cluster of public buildings and it would occupy ground that can ill be spared. If on the lower green it would detract from thss now preeminent charm of its natural aud beautiful simplicity. <. Q. T

 The large driver humbly complied, and stood aside while the drivers of the other thirty y-six cars passed by with hoots of scorn.

The great cause of constitutional prohibl- ton has received severe blow in Iowa. The Chicago Tribune has canvassed the opinions of the newly elected members of the leglsla- ture on the question of prohibition; and re- ports decided and almost overwhelming re- action. The questions were as to belief In the binding force of the amendment in spite of the adverse decision of the Supreme court. the wisdom of submitting new smendmen' to the people, and as to the general question of establishing prohibition by statute. The results are surprising says summarized re- port of the Tribune's answers. They show, first of all, that tho Prohibitionists them selves have given up all hopes of contest ing further the decision of the Supreme court on the prohibition question, and have decided to consider that as settled for as time. But the most surprising thing of all, as shown by these figures, is that prohibition by constitutional enactment in Iowa Is dead and buried beyond hope of resurrection. The returns show that iR both the lower and up per houses of the legislature exists & strong majority against the submission to the people of the prohibitory amendment, and this ma jority is so strong in each case that the most ardent supporters of prohibition cannot hope, for years to come, at least, to see this system engrafted upon the constitution of the State. The rehux in the opinions Of the people of Iowa has been so great that even prohibition by statute will have 8 close call at best, the figures seeming to lean against the passage of any such law by the popular branch of the assembly, although the Senate appears to be committed to this method of enforcing ten- perance.

The disposition to kill criminals in accord ance with law is apparently no stronger in France than in this country. Between 1871-73 there were forty-three persons beheaded in France, while in the past five years there have been only ten, or two year. In 1879 there were twenty-three death sentences, but none were carried out. In each case communication was granted. France has public execution CT, a man forty eight years old, whose salary is $1, POO a year, with bonus of $40 for each execution, and an allowance for travel ing expenses when he has to kill anybody outside of Paris.

There is one place in this country where Chinamen are appreciated. This is New Or leans. A bitter contest is raging among the New Orleans Democrats over the primaries which meet next month to elect delegates to the State convention. In their anxiety to gain every possible advantage, one faction has decided to invoke the aid of the MonRo- lian inhabitants, and large numbers of them have appeared in the courts within the last few days seeking to file notices of declaration of intention to become citizens by naturali- zation. The State constitution makes such declaration of intention the qualification for an elector, and as 800 Chinese votes will have good deal of effect in the pending contest, this hitherto despised class suddenly finds it. self treated with unusual consideration.

WHITE LABOR.

The Bohemian laborers intro
duced into this county little
more than year ago have utterly
failed as a success. Out of some
ten or dozen families not one re-
mains as farm laborer. In fact,
with one single exception, they
have all returned to the cities. But
this, in our judgement, does not
argue that white labor in the South
is a failure. 1t must be tried
again and again if necessary. 1t
is a matter that will require great
perseverance, and he who first
succeeds in demonstrating the
truth of this proposition will prove
indeed benefactor to the people.
Throughout the North and West
the most efficient and reliable class
of laborers is composed of white
Germans, Swedes, Bohemi-
ans, etc.-and if such is the case
in these sections of the country
we see no reason why they should
not prove a success in the South.
Let the importation begin again.
We have great faith in its ultimate
success. Will not Judge Hill
give us the result of his experience
with this class of laborers? Our
readers will be glad to have it.

DEATHS.

Mr.. r. G. Martin, of Browns
Station, who had been in bad
health for some weeks; died at his
residence on last Saturday. He
was buried on the following after
noon at the family burial grounds
about two miles from the Station.
Mr.. Martin was So years of age,
and had been a resident of this
county for more than 80 years.
He was universally beloved by all
who knew him, and, as a citizen,
was one of the best in the county.

one of our best, most substantial
and most enterprising citizens.

Dawson's Cotton Seed OH Mill.

1t always affords us genuine
pleasure to note the coming of any
new enterprise into our town. The
Journal has endeavered, from time
to time, to secure for Dawson a
first-class hotel building, city
hall, an artesian well, a cotton
seed oil MILL and other enterprises
that would go far towards building
up the waste places of our town
and county. We trust that in the
near future our little city can
proudly boast of all these enter
prises, and we feel quite sure that
we can do 50 before a Very great
many months slralI have passed.
Of one thing we are almost certain,
and that is a cotton seed oil mill
will be established here some time
during the present year. We un-
derstand that an agreement be
tween responsible parties has al
ready been entered into for this
purpose, and the machinery is
soon TO be ordered. While we are
not authorized to say positively
that an oil mill will be established
in Dawson, yet there can certainly
be but little doubt about it. The
Journal will have further remarks
on this subject in future issues;
and in the mean tinre we wish those
interested much success in their
new undertaking.
