The American Consul at Nice
France, sends communication to the
State Department at Washington in
regard to marriages in the United
States between its citizens and those
of the French Republic. He calls at
tention to this matter in order that
some measures may be taken to guard
Americans against being uDwittingly
entrapped into marriages that are
good enough here, but which are in
valid in France. lie adds: That
these things occur, and are productive
Of great misery to American citizens
who are in condition least able to
bear it, is, alas, to, manifest in the
number of American (and Euglish)
women who are in France the cast-off
and discharged wives of Frenchmen.
The laws Of France on the subject Of
marriage are very strict, and clandes-
tine unions and the marriages of chill
dren without the consent of their par.
ents, so common in the United States
are not legal in France.

Mas. VERONICA BULLA, who per-
formed remarkable fast in Syracuse.
n. Y. died yesterday. Her fast be-
gan on August 10th, tfty-nine days
ago, and since that time she did not
touch . morsel of solid food, living
entirely upon water, in which small
quantities of morphine were dissolved.
When she llrst declined to partake of
food she weighed one hundred and
forty pounds. As she lay upon q
couch this morning her bones nearly
protruded through the skin. which
lay in wrinkles, and her eyes were
terribly sunken Many people visit
ed the women. All the efforts of her
physicians and friends to induce her
to eat were fruitless. She was a
widow, a native of Germany, and
well to do. Since the death of her
husband, eight years ago in "a insane
asylum, her mind was affected.

Sergeant McGauran. OF the Signal
Service, who got into trouble by re-
fnsing to receive a colored man az his
assistant in the Office at Pensacola,
Fla, as stated in the CAPITAL at the
time the difficulty occurred is not to be
court-martialed for disobedience of
orders, as was first intended. He
brought strong influence to bear, and
succeeded in having his punishment
limited to .. reduction to the rank of
private. The colored observer, who
has been in charge of the Pensacola
Office ever since he was assigned to
duty there, will shortly be relieved
as his presence in an official capacity
is distasteful to the citizens of Pensa-
cola, and it is thought Unnecessary
to insist upon bis remaining there.
He would not have received that as
segment in the first place, it is now
stated, had the fact of his being col
ored occurred to the officers making
the selection.

FRIDAY. OCTOBER 9. 1885.

THE political atmosphere in this
county is still murky. The democrats
do not feel happy, and another love-
feast is talked Of The fusionists are
still at sea. Their ticket won't stick,
and they are puzzled to know how to
keep up the spirits of their followers.
Many republicans make wry faces and
declare they cannot swallow the fu-
sion dose prepared for them. II hasn't
got enough bourbon and has too much
milk audwater democracy in its CON-
position, to be palatable A straight
republican ticket is talked OF, but we
guess it is only talk Their numbers
are too few and far between.
The CAPITAL advises harmony aud
good feeling all around. 1t pats the
democrats on the back and tells them
to "go it, while they may. 1t would
remind the fusionists that lin union
there Is strength" To the dissatisfied

Popular Girl.

What is it that determines a girls
popularity in society ? is aquestion Of
ten heard in these days of social strife
and ACKNOWLEDGMENT, and question
that no one is quite able to answer in a
word 1t is not because she is we'll
dressed or even pretty it is not that her
fairy godmother bestowed witty
tongue to amuse the billiards OF ''higll-
ly educated," or $50 amiabie" mo,
mono of these desirable qualities would
render the popular girl more popular
than she is, though perhaps she is for
tunate enough to possess one CT more
OF them for her stock in trade. The
girl everybody likes need have neither
money nor beauty, which IN the worlds
estimation constitutes social power !;
but she must have and does have q
gracious, manner, certain graceful
bearing, decided intelligence, instinct
i've generosity, and, above all, the great
est gift ever awarded to woman--per-
sonal magnetism. Beauty is called the
fatal gift, but personal magnetism,
which is independent of beauty, is the
gift Of power, and, though scarcely
recognized at first, only relinquishes it's
hold with death itself. The popular
girl always has this fascination in more
or less degree, and il with it go tho
other attractions or happy circunstan-
ces, she rules the indisprtable queen
of her small sphere. Her friends do
not analyze the effect she has on them !;
they simply like her, love her, and
later, when the time comes, adore her.

A Wild Garden,
From the Detroit Free Press.

From the Detroit Free Press.
Gardening includes many branches.
Some of them are flower, fruit window,
aquatic, bog and the Wild garden. It
is OF the latter we wish to speak at this
time. BY wild garden we do not mean
border where nothing but wild plants
from the woods and fields are grown, as
some have understood. The wild gar.
den, so called, is produced by making a
mixture of great many Of the more
hardy seeds and sowing them from the
middle of April to the second week in
May. A five cent paper will SOW
q large bed, or al ounce, which
will cost twenty five cents. will be am
pie enough for square rod of ground.
In these seeds which Ihave mixed for
the purpose, are hardy ANIMALS, fra
grant Mignonettes, peas. phlox ana
morning glory, curious gourds, some Of
them resembling hens eggs, dippers,
clubs, etc., and also the seeds of some
perennials, the roots of which live On
from year to year.
All that is necessary is piece Of
ground we'll dug, and brought into
fine filth by raking. The seeds should
not be sown too thick. Keep the
weeds down, and our word for it, you
will be we'll pleased with your wild
garden.
