CAUSE OF THE GOODNESS BETWEEN
DAYIS AND JOHNSTON.

AS too often the case, it may be traced
directly to the ladies of their respective
households. Gen. Johnston's wife was
Miss Lille McLane, of Baltimore, a lady
of great beauty and commanding pres
ence, and in her veins coursed the very
bluest blood of old Maryland, while her
husband belonged to one of Virginia's
best old families. They were young and
rich. He was Quartermaster General
of the United States, and they were very
naturally the toast il, Washington. On
the other hand, Mr.. Davis had married
a second time (his first wife being
daughter of Gen. Taylor); this time his
wife being Miss Earina Howell, of
Natchez, Miss. They were married in
that city. She was brunette, with
dark, fine eyes, was very Spanish lcok-
ing, and she was enormously rich, being
the daughter of merchant of that city;
but social history says nothing of her
pedigree. She was the wife of United
States Senator, al ex-Secretary of War.
These ladies were rival leaders of fash
ion-Mrs. Johnston with all the pride
of birth, etc.. Mrs. Davis with money
and Mr.. Davis as husband The cal
dron fumed in Washington, and the Bit
terness was renewed when they appeared
in Richmond. She was then the wife
of the President, and Ms. Johnston's
husband was Lieutenant General and
right here it is reported that Mrs. Pres,
ident Davis undertook TO ignore Mrs.
Gen. Johnston. This, of course, was
not to be quietly borne. Gen. Johnston
was winning fame every day. Finally,
SO the gossips have it, Mr.. Davis es-
poused the cause of his wife, and hence
forth Gen. Johnston was impeded at
every point of his brilliant career
Many persons believe that had it not
been for Mrs. Davis jealousy OF Mrs
Johnston, no unpleasantness would now
exist between the gentlemen. - Ec-
change.

AZ ARCTIC TRAGEDY.

With Horn sound begins the interest
IN Spitzbergen, as the place was the
scene Of as cruel a tragedy as was ever
enacted. The story has in it all the dra-
matio elements of n thrilling novel OF
;hs old school, and iinds a fitting de-
nouement in the mines of Siberia. On
one of the innermost islands of Horn
ound, few years ago, were found
leap of nine skulls, said TO be those of
Russian crew murdered by party of
English whalers. These murderers were
lever discovered, but another and still
more remarkable discovery was maao in
the year 1853 by Norwegian sea Cap
..,in, near this place, and it is of this
lnat intend to tell. 1t is the common
est occurrence for ships that venture up
i,ere to lose one or more men trip, and
- when the other members of the small
: aws-say five or six men-return
ae and report that they have lost
nrades, no particular attention is paid
- the news beyond the little circle wild
lived by the lost men.
It happened somewhere about 1849
Tat the crew of Russian whaler made
.eir way back to Archangeland reported
"a: they had lost their Captain and two
Aen on Spitzbergen through an acci-
'ent, details of which were given. The
Captain and his men were mourned, and
n little while the affair was forgotten.
IN 1853, however, the Norwegian Cap
ain in question, while out hunting for
'eindeer, found three human skeletons,
and beside them gun from which the
stock was rotting. On the barrel of the
run were scratched number of inscrip-
ions in Russian, which the Norwegian
was unable to make out. He brought
the gun home with him, and sent it to
Archangel, where it was found to con-
tain the history of the Captain and the
two men, previously reported as having
been killed by accident. The inscrip-
ION told how the owner of the gun and
his two men had been basely deserted
by the others of the crew, for whom they
we're out procuring food, and left to die
If exposure. Those of the crew then
live were arrested and sentenced for
fe to work in the mines of Siberia.

ave suffered terribly, for, from the

WHY IRELAND WEARS THE GREEN.

In your note ON the Order of st. Pat
rick you suggest that the existing blue
ribbon should be changed for q green
one, on the ground that such an altera-
ton would be well received by Irishmen.
Will you allow me to point out that this
suggestion arises from totally-unfound-
ed, though very common, belief that
green is the national color of Ireland?
The truth, however, is that green was
never heard of as national or party color
till ITS, when the United Irishmen
adopted it for the following reason:
The ancient flag of ireland was golden
harp on dark blue ground, as now de-
picted or emblazoned in the Irish quar-
ter, the third of the royal standard, and
the Revolutionary leaders being anxious
to unite together all classes of IrisLmen,
being in that respect the exact converse
of the present agitators, and to join the
Orangemen to the rest of their fellow
countrymon, adopted green as their dis
tinguishiug color, which is of course
produced by mixing together gold and
blue. At the time, therefore, of the in
stitution of tie 0c,l2r af st. Patrick, in
1888, the only and undonbted national
color was dark blue, and that would
probably have been the color of the
ribbon but that it had already been APP
propriated by the Order Of the Garter,
which was originally Light blue, but had
been altered by the Hanoyerian mon-
archs to its present color to distinguish
their Knights from those whom the two
Pretenders continued to invest with the
old ight-blue ribbon. (Hence, by the
way, the expression "True blue. y
Under these circumstances it was origi.
nally proposed that the st. Patrick rib
bon should be orange, but, as this would
have savored too much of party, it was
determined that it should be
the old color of the Garter-light blue.

IRELAND Boards THE LION.

Her Sons in the Commons Again Charge
the Government with Judicial Murder.
LONDON, August 14-There was a long
debate, characterized by much Obstruc-
tiOn on the part of the Irish members. in
the House of Commons last night, on the
vote tor the legal expenses incurred in the
recent criminal prosecutions in Ireland.
MIR. Harrington, member for West Meath.
alleged that Myles Joyce, who was found
guilty and executed for participating
in the murder of the Joyce family at
Mamtrassna, near LOugh Mask, in county
Galway, on September Is, 1882, was Judi
cially murdered, despite the fact that
evidence of his innocence was accessible
to Earl Spencer, Lord Lieutenant OF Ire
land.
Mr.. Cullen, member for Louth, declared
that the government could have brought
the Phoenix Park murderers to Justice
without the evidence of James Carey, but
that Sir William HarcOurt, Home Secre-
tary, eontrived to have Carey accepted as
an lnformer for the purpose of endeavOr-
ing to connect some Irish members of
Parliament with the murders.
Mr: Parnell repeated the charges of jury
packing III Ireland and of a reckless de-
sire OF the government to procure convic-
UiOh Aoi Ihe puIpOSe OI STRIKING terror
among the people of that country bv a
tyrannical use of the powers of the secret
inquiry.
Mr.. Porter, Attorney General for Ire
land, replying to the remarks of the Irish
members, said that as long as the atrOci
ties III Ireland went unpunished the
means of inquiry allowed by law would
be used without shrinking.
During the debate MIR. Harrington
charged Lord Spencer with having Myles
Joyce hanged when he knew that the con
demned man was innocent. He was
called to order for this remark, and then
modified his statement as already men,
toned.
MI. Healey, member for Monaghan,
was also called to order during the debate
for usiug violent language against the
officers of the crown.
Mr.. Parnell, as a protest against the
conduct OF the government, moved that
the amount of money provided for in the
appropriation be reduced, but his motion
was defeated by "A yeas to 90 nays.

No sooner had the Captain clapped his
eyes on the fair vision and heard the
OBJECT OF her visit than l saw a sudden
pallor overspread his countenance. and.
dropping his cigar in his haste, he made a
hurried and stealthy departure. Shortly
after the lady inquired for him, averring
that she had made a mistake in handing
MN a ucket on the previous day, and eX-
pressing desire that he should rectify the
error. On making search the gallant officer
was found secreted under the house quak-
ing with terror and utterly demoraliZed. No
sooner dld he see his tOrmentor approach
ing than he quit his entertainments and
took to the Sand-hillS for refuge. The
farce was finished, and the lady, with
ringing peal of laughter, dropping her
disguise, stood revealed in the person of
a charming young matrOn from Talla-
hassee, whose vivacity and gifts of mind
and person gave great life to the circle
at the Strathmore, and render her an or
ndment to any society. Captain SsBilP'
was handsomely ''sold' for one time in
his life, and if you wish to see a vivid
blush sutfuse his bronZed countenance.
Just ask what addition he has recently
made TO his library in the way of pur-
chases from fascinating book agents.
Miss Floride Abel had a benefit ten
dered her last Friday night, which was a
grand success in all respects. Our gifted
young townswoman is rapidly developing
the talents with which she has been liber-
ally endowed, and bids fair to occupy a
shining position in the profession she has
adopted.

OF our city excellent. W.H.B.

MORE WIRES LAID Low,
A City Cable Cut and the Wires Almost
Beyond Connection.

NEW YORK, August 14.-The strike of
the telegraph operators present no new
features to-day. Mr.. SOmerville, of the
Western Union Company, said to-day
that 126 wires of the Gold and Stock Tel
egraph Company, which supply most OF
the circuits to the brokers' offices
down town, and which are
carried through Church street
in seven cables suspended under the ele-
va;ed railroad girders, were all cut last
night, and in such way that the wires
can't be connected again at the point
Where they were severed. Tempo
rary connections have been made
with other lines, ami the company hoped
to be able to repir the damage to-day.
Mutual Union wires were cut in Har-
lem and Manhattanville last night to the
number of a dozen or more. A few wires
were cut near Newark, and others near
Fleetwood. A rigger for the Western
Union Company was assaulted by two of
the striking linemen to-day when he was
leaving the cOmpany's building. The Of
tenders were arrested by the police and
taken to court ana they were held for
examination.
The Gold and Stock Telegraph Company
announced that all their wires were cut
this morning, but they expect to have
them at work by noon.
