this city, left the following note pinned to

river last night:
Dear Ones al Home: The fall I had in
Philadelphia must have affected my head,
for every winter since a gloom has
come over me, when I cannot make

conclusion 1t must be because it was so quiet
up here, and thought if / went away and
became interested in my music l would be
all right. was mistaken, for / am worse
than ever before. Even if hoarseness had
not interrupted my practice, could not
have made much progress while in this con =
dition. 1t is only a matter of time before
shall lose my mind, when would be a bur
den to you or another for years. Something
tells me have no right to make so much
trouble aud be of no use, and / feel
that it is Gods will for me to take the course
am about to take. / am sure you will feel
as Mrs. Cooper did when they thought Lizzie
was going to lose her mind, that she had
paired. The river in front will be my rest

mourning for me, and l want you to go on
the same as usual. / would like to have Mr.

HELENA, Ark, April 10.-0ne of the most
unusual and remarkable occurrences in the
history of the civilized negro race happened
IN Mississippi yesterday. Mr.. Boyd Stearnes,
who owns plantation inc ID bottoms, and
who was in the city to-day, describes the i'm
bruglio in th following graphic language:
Last fall employed to pick cotton a strap
ping six-foot mulatto named Bob Williams,
who claimed Helens as his home. He had
not been in my employ but short time
when he became enamored of Cynthia
Alcorn, handsome mulatto who lived with
her father on the place. Jack Redding, an
old employe on the place, had been also for
some time paying his respects TO Cynthia,
and fierce aud bitter rivalry at once
arose between the men. They have
had several fights during the winter,

The Latest Adyices.l

Special to the Globe.
WINNIPEG, April 1o.-The telegraph line
to Battleford has been repaired and is work.
ng to-day. A dispatch received from there
tonight says the position is very unsatifac-
iGy. The Indians have raided and burned
the store of Mahoffy & CHnkskill and the
old government house and stables. Inspec-
ter Morris and the mounted police made a
raid on the half-breed camps near town last
week and captured ten men and q number of
women and children. The latter are en-
csmped near the barracks. It is supposed
that these are the fifty prisoners spoken of in
previous despatch. 1t appears that the
Frog Lake Indians invited Quinn and others
killed, into their camp, and shot them as soon
as they entered. The police at Fort Pitt with
outsiders are entrenched in the Hudson Bay
company's houses there and hope to defend
themselves, but are in criti-
cal position, being threatened from
on ali sides. A band Of Stony Indians yes
terlay completed the raiding of South Bat
tleford. They also opened fire on the police
xhen going with carts TO procure water. The
field gun was taken out and line OF skir-
mishers took 4 position on the bank They
killed two Indians and three horses. No
whites we're injured. Battleford people keep
up good heart but are anxiously slyawaitiDg help.
a dispatch from CIarke's Crossing reports
all who were taken prisoners By the rebels al
Duck Lake released except Indian Agent
Lash and two men named Tomkins who
we're arrested when repairing the telegraph
line. This dispatch confirms the statement
before sent regarding the Kerr brothers es-
cape. Riel sentenced the younger brother to
death after ne had left but failed to recapture
him. Brandon dispatch reports the Indians
in the Turtle mountain troublesome and
stealing al theT can lay hands on. Amer
lean Indians from St Peters are helping
them. The settlers are greatly disturbed and

HE VENTED HIS RAGE,
Malicious Vandalism at the New Orleans
Exposition.

Exposition.
Special to the Globe.
New ORLEANS, La, April 10.-A case of
malicious vandalism was committed at the
exposition yesterday which has created great
excitement. One of the prettiest displays of
the exposition was that of Colorado, repre-
senting scene in the pass region of that
state with the Mountain of the Holy Cross in
the distance. 1t was a perfect miniature
reproduction of Colorado scenery, with the
railroad bridges, trestles, farms, orchards
and forests; good piece of painting and
carpenter work, and has been admired by
thousands. The work was mainly owned
by Mr.. D. L. Grimes, who came here from
Denver with Mr.. Sickles, the Colorado COM
missioner. The understanding was that
Grimes was to be paid for his work in case
the state of Colorado made an appropriation
in aid of the exposition. No such appropri-
alton was made. Grimes received only half
his money and waxed wroth, and to-day
satisfied his rage by completely destroying
the exhibit. Appearing at the exposition at
midnight be informed the policeman on
duty there that he had been instructed to
alter the tableaus. No objection being
made thereto he proceeded to break it all to
pieces and in few hours had damaged il so
that it will be impossible to restore it. After
accomplishing this feat he left and has not
yet been found, but orders have been issued
TO arrest him as soon as found for malicious
mischief Mr. Sickles, commissioner from
Colorado, is absent on q visit to the ietties
and cannot be seen. 1t is not possible, how
ever, to remedy the injury done and the ex-
hibit, probably The most popular in the gov
eminent building, wiz never be seen AGAIN.

the billigerents should be. The toss for
position resulted favorably for Williams and
the duelists took their places. A great big
black dog-stealing scoundrel named Frank
Smith was the one to give the word. He
expanded his chest, drew in full breath and
in tone of thunder yelled ''Gentlemen is
you ready. One, hold-on-dar, hold-dar.
Don't you raise dat weapon until say two"
Jack Redding thinking that the two
had come straight and in good form,
proceeded to discharge his weapon.
Williams responded by blazing away and
bringing his man down to the ground by hit
ting him on the knee. When Redding fell this
was signal for dispensing. Everybody fled,
leaving Redding and the doctor in possession
of the field, and after the examination it
was found that Smith, one of the seconds,
had received very painful wound, and that
Williams also had two painful flesh wounds.
Williams fed the country, and it was for the
purpose of finding him that Mr.. Stearnes
came over to-day, thinking he would be in
Helena.

A Plot to Assassinate Gov. Hoad1ey.

CLEVELAND, o., April 10.-A special from
Coshocton says the Democratic Standard of
that place has private information of a plot
to assassinate Gov. Hoadly last Monday. 1t
says the governor received through the mail
small wooden box, from one
end of which hung a string.
The governors suspicious being aroused
he caused the cover of the box to be re-
moved, and carefully arranged internal
machine, loaded with dynamite, slugs and
spikes, were disclosed to view. The string
had been so adjusted that to have pulled it
the governor would have caused an explo-
sion and douotless lost his life. 1t is said
the authorities are at work on the case, and
for that reason the facts have not before
been made public.
