ZERAlDA GARRISON.
The Physicians Pronounce Her Den

eient and She II sent TO an Asylum.
ST. LOUIS, January 1S.-Zeralda Garrison
has been sent East by her uncle,..who, upon
the advice of the family physician, has de-
cided to place her in an asylum for the
treatment of nervous diseases. Three OF
the most emminent physicians OF the city
published certificate in which they pro-
nounce the young lady deficient in her
mental development, and at times, ire
sponsiole for her actions. They also state
that upon careful examination no evidence
of physical violence was found.
Theories Advanced.
The fact that the physicians, who are
leading men in their profession, have con-
cluded that she was not subject to any
physical violation during the timeof her
disappearance, leads to the belief that the
theory advanced by Constable Ryan, who
arrested the O'Brens, was the correct one.
He said that the four had caught
the girl in some wild indiscretion
and had then frightened her
into remaining with them, promising
to do her no harm, but to release her as
soon as her relatives offered fair reward
for her return. She went with them, fear
ing her life at first, but subsequently find
ing that they meant to do her no harm, she
remained with them willingly, doing that
rather than have them tell her parents the
little they knew of her. This story is
really the true one, and though it may
sound improbable, the four men who were
i'm plicated have done such pieces of work
before. The public, however, have hun.
dred theories Of their own, and the most
popular one appears to be that the girl went
willingly and remained willing prisoner
from first to last, no intimidation or threats
having been used whatever.
Charles and "Nosey" 0'Brien, who were
arrested Sunday night, charged with the
abduction of the girl, we're broughtinto the
police court yesterday. They were given
three hours in which TO leave the city.

THE SHIP or FORTUNE.

Ny ship, she sails a shifting sea;
I know not what her fortunes be,
Or if, perchance the creaking blast
VIII ever bear her home;
With head on hand. the liyelong day
burn my eyes against the bay
And never see the gallant mast
Across the wheeling foam.
Behind my latticed window-bars
watch at night the floating stars,
And Graded by the rolling sea
The silent hamlet lies;
An ebbing tide upon the sand,
The mighty water rocks the land,
And through the leaning linden-tree,
Repeats the crystal skies.
Ny freighted ship-perchance the gale
Gives battle to her swelling sail,
Her heaving charger meets the blow
And plunges painting back;
The current swims beneath her keel,
Her scarlet banners writhe and reel
And in the foaming food below
The waters circle black
Or yet a thousand leagues from shore,
The red flames eat her to the core;
She leaps in all her blazoned gold
Along the kissing tide
Her quenchless jewels sink in slime
A treasure for the hand of Time.
And rushing through the empty hold
The ocean claims the bride.
All, friend too long you followed here,
The tagging footsteps Of the year
To watch, beyond the melting bay,
The distant shining sea-
A floating hull from other lands
Came reeling up the yellow sands
A wreck of life, the sailors say:
For you-but not for me.

FRENCH WoRKIEesEE.-- pamphlet,
published by Mr. Armengaun, gives the
result Of an inquiry into the expenditure
of sixteen working class families in Mul-
house, a large manufacturing town Of
Alsace. It is presumed that the invest-
gator selected typical families, and that
the result Of his investigation may, con-
sequently, be fairly assumed to repre-
sent the expense Of the average French
working class in a provincial city. Six
teen families representing different Glasses
Of workingmen were taken. Their OK
penditure varied from 1920 to $500 n
year. Their rent averaged IS per cent.
On Paris it would probably have been at
least 20), clothing Is, food 81, miscol
laneous 8. The highest expenditure in
any case for food was 70 per cent. OF
the expenditure for food, 80 per cent.
was for bread, IA for meat, 10 for milk,

The farmers of the country may take
advice from us, but whether it is
needed is different subject.
Yesterday farmer brought to town
12O pounds of choice butter and 80
dozen eggs, which he disposed of to
one merchant at good figures. We do
not see any cause why our Southern
farmers should not turn their attention
to this always remunerative and COM
paratively inexpensive industry.
When the proceeds are reckoned and
the cost complied, it will be found
the average farmer with one acre lot
for fowls aud q acres lot for stock prop
erly cared for, can make more money in
three months than any one with a
twelve acre patch in one years planting.
There is always free and easy market
at Monroe for country produce Of all
kinds, and it is not the lack of pur-
chasers, bnt the uncertainty of supply
that occasionally causes confusion in
prices. The demand for country pre-
duce is always steady.

Commercial.

Our merchants yesterday were kept
pretty busy filling orders ana packing
wagons with dry goods, provisions, &c.
for which in return they received the
staple or its equivalent, We may
honestly state that we are surprised at
the rapid strides towards posterity
being made by the "Queen City" of the
Ouachita Valley, and there is none
who rejoice more than we at this
happy result. The conclusion, how
ever, to be arrived at is, that the liberal
use of printers ink, has been one Of
the posts which has pointed its index
finger to this city, and captivated the
good will of our near neighbors, as
well as that of our more distant friends,
all of whom, we are pleased to learn,
are supremacy happy and leave with a
determination to shortly return.
The receipts of cotton yesterday
amounted to 107 bales. Prices ranged
from So to 10 cents, with an active
demand. Total receipts to date 3,4S5
bales. Bank collections good. Ex-
change on New Orleans at par; on
other cities to 1 per cent premium.
