Progress OF southern AgricuIture.

Progress of Southern Agriculture.
Carefully compiled statistics of the ag-
ricultural productions Of the entire South
foot up for 1882 the sum Of 1914, 099, 074,
or S214, 226, 1876 over the estimate for 1880.
The value Of all farm products of the
whole country in 1880, was 81, 213, 402, 564,
OF which $6j9, So, 64S was credited to the
South, or only about 30 per cent. of the
total. Her gain of $214, 226, 426 in 1882
shows that her increase in two years from
% to 81 per cent. of the total, has been 30
per cent. against per cent. increase for
the whole country. This is certainly a
splendid showing for the Southern
States, so often represented as devoid of
energy and progress, aud should quiet the
fears Of our Northern friends about our
industrial future. But even this grand
stride in agriculture does not equal
that made in our manufacturing interests,
and now that the Pittsburgers are moving
upon Tennessee and Kentucky, we shall
soon create as grave alarm among
the iron fOundries Ofthe North as we have
already done among her cotton spindles.

ters last night and said that his wife Sophia
had disappeared on April 1S, after having
made an unsuccessful attempt to poison his
two children. He showed vial containing
whitish powder, which he said had peen ad-
ministered 10 his childen by his wife. After
taking 1t on April 1S the children were taken
sick. Two doctors came to the conclusion that
the children were suffering from the effects
of poison. The customary antidotes were nd
ministered and the children recovered, but
the youngest is still IN precarlous condition,
but will probably recover.
The maiden name OF Mrs. Williams is Sophia
Stohl. She is native Of Germany. While
still young she married there man named
George Henckel. She, after a few years, ran
away from him and came tc this country,
landing In Philadelphia, where for some time
she lived with her brother. There she made
the acquaintance OF G. Sultzer, whom she mar
ried. The first husband appeared upon the
scene, and Sulfzer ned TO Milwaukee. His wife
followed him. He discarded her In Mil
waukee, and she returned TO her brothers.
home in Philadelphia. While she was liv-
Ing with her brother In Philadelphia Henry
Williams, who was then in the wholesale
provision business in that city, and had just
lost his wife, and had nve or ak young chill
dren, advertised for a housekeeper. The
woman, who is now missing, answered the ad
vertisement. She was accepted as house,
keeper, and subsequently Mr.. Williams mar
ried her, In ignorance OF the fact that she had
already two husbands from whom she had
never been divorced. Soon after the marriage
Mrs. Williams insisted that her husbands
property should be settled on her. The hus-
band objected. Domestic quarrels ensued,
and Mrs. Williams on one occasion was ar

Williams told Inspector Murray last night
that on the same day she cut her throat and
was carried TO his house by two policemen.
She was put under medical treatment and re-
covered, but soon afterward she tried to poison
the youngest child and to kill herself. She
was again sent back 10 Moyamensing Prison,
| where, within a few days, she repeatedly ct.

not been living happily lately. The two have
not been married long, but already the last
spark of domestic felicity has disappeared
from the household and quarrels, lights and

annoyed the peaceable residents in the vicin-
ity Of their residence. Dickson, from being
quiet, Industrious workman,grew careless and
indifferent,a and frequently drank to relieve the
sorrows of home life, and when he was under
the influence OF liquor his conduct toward his
consort became even more brutal. He would
beat her severely with whatever no could So
cure conveniently, until the screams OF tho
woman brought The neighbor5 20 her assist

home to escape the vengeance OF her lord
when he was In one Of those drunken sprees.
Matters grew from bad to worse, and
the brutal husband declared that he
would kill his wife II she worried
| him much longer. For several days the
| residents were again aroused by row be-
tween the two, but on the approach OF an
officer, Dickson escaped. Since then Hattie

band has commenced living with another

Captain Green, of the brig Ellen II. Mon
roe, arrived at philadelphia from Aspinwall
via Cardenas, furnishes the details of the
most astonishing assault at Aspinwall upon
the American brig Mary G. Coomery, from
Pensacola. by the authorities of the United
States of Colombia. Captain Terry, of the
Coomery arrived with his vessel at Aspin-
wall, with cargo of lumber, early in
August last. The lumber was consigned to
the Boston Ice Company, and the vessel
was ordered to discharge her cargo at once
upon the wharf. Captain Terry pre-
pared to comply with this order,
but first demanded payment of
freight charges. This was refused, and
Captain Terry at once dropped his vessel
out into the stream in order to avoid wharf
age and to await the payment of the freight
due on the cargo. On August 2S a force of
colored soldiers, commanded by an officer
of tho United States of Colombia, came
cut to the vessel and drove the captain and
crew into the water at the point of the
bayonet. Before the soldiers arrived at the
vessels side Captain Terry had hoisted the
American flag to the main topmast. The
soldiers paid no attention to this, and,
when they had obtained possession of the
vessel, dragged the flag down, tore it
in pieces and threw the tattered
remnants into the sea. Captain
Terry and his men, with considerable diff
fculty, succeeded in swimming to shore.
The soldiers then had the vessel taken to
the wharf, where her cargo was discharged
under the supervision of the officer in com.
mand, without the payment of any of the
freight money to Captain Terry or the
owners of the vessel. The vessel was then
turned over to Captain Terry, who at once
made complaint to the United States au
thorities. General Foote was sent to Aspin'
wall from Washington, but as yet has made
no report. In the meantime Captain Terry
remains at Aspinwall. He demands $20,.
600 damages, which he has as yet been un'
oh1a IN pat
