Bound to See Her Husband.

A sensation was caused in police cir
cles here to-day by the discovery that
one of the prisoners in the city jail who
was attired as man was woman.
The name of the prisoner is Henrietta
Hix. Her husband deserted her in
Boston few months ago. Learning
that he had come to Richmond, the
wife donned male attire and shipped on
board of a vessel at Boston as cook
about twelve weeks ago.
Upon reaching this city Mrs. Xix
discovered that her husband had been
arrested and committed to Jail for rob-
berry. Determined to gain access to
him and share his prison cell. the wom-
an stole a small amount of money. She
was arrested, and without arousing the
suspicious of the authorities as to her
sex she was placed in the same cell
with Hix. The ruse was discovered to-
lay and the husband and wife were
placed in separate cells. Xix confirms
the woman story and says they were
married in Boston about two years ago.
1t is probable that Mrs. HiX will be
pardoned by the Governor. She is
young and good-looking. -Ricsmond

A DuskY Prince.

Several months ago the Crown Prince
of Bucknamago, Africa, came to Ar
kansaw.. He was so attractive, SO SUI
perior to any of the Arkansaw negroes,
that many plantation maidens fell in
love with him. He met the daughter
of Caleb Henderson, a wealthy old
negro of Jefferson County. The old
man was delighted to see his daughter
associate with a Prince. He was OF
royal blood himself, he thought, and
the Prince might make himself at home.
That was exactly what the Prince
wanted to do. He married the girl,
after having made satisfactory finan-
cial arrangements with the old man. 1t
now transpires that the Prince is named
Buck Sanders, and that during nearly
all of his life he has worked on the
levee at st. Louis. -ArkGnSGw TrGU-

A Wilderness Again.

Many parts of the earth's surface
once populous are now deserts or for
ests. This was to have been expected
in ancient seats of. civilization, but il
seems strange to learn that there are
portions of our country which are re-
turning to state of nature. Nottaway
County, Va, is such locality. This
was where the first settlers landed, and
where, it is claimed, Pocahontas saved
Captain John Smiths life. At its pres
ent rate of decay it will in twenty years
be wilderness. Deer now roam over
woods which were once great planta-
tons and yielded abundantly of tobacco
and corn. There are many sections OF
England, once farm lands, which are
now returning to their primeval condi-
ton of forests. 1t is found that nc
labor will make some of these old
farms profitable in competition with the
more fertile soil of the far West. When
our population becomes denser, no
doubt these abandoned regions will
again be cleared and made to support
life; for our country is destined to be
thickly populated, and we shall need
more soil to satisfy the needs of the
countless generations that will some
time live between the Atlantic and Pa
cific Oceans, -DemoreStS Monthly.

RATS AND MINERS,
Rodents ON the Lower Levels of the Sier
Range.

Rodents ON the Lower Levels of the Sierra
Range.
Old miners have great respect for
the rats of the lower levels. They
neither kill the rats nor suffer them to
be killed by green hands. In the first
place, were there no other reason, a
dead rat left under ground would scent
up a whole level, and in the second
place, the living rats devour any bones,
scraps of meat or fragments of other
food left in the mines, which would,
by their decay, vitiate the air, gener-
ally hot and unpleasant at best. Rats
also give a warning when cave is
about to occur. They feel the pressure
of the settling ground even before the
cracking of the timbers is heard, and
come forth upon the floor and scamper
uneasily about by scores. For these
and other reasons the miners have a
friendly feeling toward the rats, feed
ing and protecting them. In nearly
every mine the men have one or more
of the little animals as pets, and these
are quite tame, coming out of their
holes to feed at lunch time.
When rats come into new drift or
crosscut it is considered a good sign
1t is thought to mean that the mine will
strike ore. The other day when the
men were at work ON the face of new
crosscut on the two thousand, seven
hundred level of the Sierra Nevada
mine, rat come in to them. travelling
along the line of the compressed air
pipe. When the little rodent was seen
some of the new hands wanted to kill
it, but the old miners would not allow
it to be hurt. They said it would
bring luck to the crosscut. So they
fixed up in the roof of the drift a box
as house for the rat and placed food
near at hand, in order that itmight
find its new quarters profitable as well
as comfortable, There is much talk
among the miners about the coming Of
this rat, and the men in the new cross,
cut are very proud of it, and have high
hopes on account of its presence.
Woe unto the man who shall intention.

Money the Predominating Topic Of Inter

The one predominating topic of in
terest in the immigrant mind is money
how to make it and how to save it.
Suspicious of everyone who can not
talk their particular language, though
easily bamboozled by those who do,
they come into the Garden looking
upon every stranger as a robber and
an enemy. Their money, which may
be greater sum and may be less, is
sewed away in the lining of their
clothes, or fastened in their coats, or
secreted in their stockings, or chained
to their waists by brazen money belts
and various other apparatus of torture,
and to get it out is much worse than
pulling teeth or coaxing pigs to market.
Only few days ago an old Swede
brought his wife and one thousand four
hundred dollars in money over with
him. and it was an hour before he could
be persuaded to get it changed into
American money, and then not until
he had been taken inside of the ex-
change bureau and the whole thing ex-
planned to him about nine separate
times. Put the same suspicious man
In the hands of shrewd rascal outside

ing at the Garden that an immigrant
knows more when he arrives there
than he ever does afterward You car
not teach him anything. II he is in
the tolls of swindler and you try tc

winds scatter the escaping gases far
and wide, soon to be absorbed by the

forms of beauty, and wholesome fruits,

The fly does his part in this great
and important work of publication,
seeing with his ten thousand and three
eyes what would pass unnoticed by us,
eagerly devouring his appropriate
food. This he finds in the smallest
atoms of animal and. vegetable matters
too small to be noticed by the tidy
housekeeper, which otherwise would
be permitted to putrefy, communicating
the air. We may imagine that he
circles about in the air with no definite
object in view, but if we will carefully
watch him we shall be convinced that
he has an object, collecting his food,
atoms of impure or decaying matter,
which otherwise would enter our lungs.
adding to the impurity of our blood.
This filth is collected on his wings and
head, for as we see him light, he scrapes
his wings and head with his legs and
feet, passing the gathered morsels from
foot to foot, the front pair passing his
dinner to his mouth. In this way he is
busily engaged during considerable OF

he can see his dainty morsels distinctly.

THE PRINCE IMPERIAL.
How the Resting Place of the Dead Prince
in South Africa Appears.

How the Resting Place of the Dead Prince
in South Africa Appears.
The first thing that strikes one is the
extreme beauty and order of the little
enclosure. 1t looks like little flower
garden with sloping banks on each
side. 1t was really, it seems, originally
a dry donga with dark black mud. and
the bottom is filled with the Enclosure
and cross, whereas the sloping sides of
the donga are covered with the pretty
green Expresses and pines now, per-
haps, six feet high. The country round
is fearfully plain, and near the place
where the Prince was killed little
brogen dongas abound. But the eye
rests ON the pretty arrangement in the
planted Enclosure with pleasure. There
is first little square, about ten feet
long and eight feet broad Enclosed
with beautiful white quartz stones
brought from Emblungwane hill, close
by. 1t looks like little marble wall a
foot high. Then the white stone cross,
put up by Queen Victoria, stands on a
pedestal, set upon some of the same
large whitish stones. A long inscrip-
ton says how it was put up by Queen
Victoria to the memory of the Prince
Napoleon, who was killed here, with
his face to the foe. There is also in
the Enclosure long fiat, raised altar
tomb, with a cross worked upon it in
stones, and at the foot of this is a little
crucifix, with an inscription in French.
Higher up in the inclosed piece
of ground is the site of another grave
with a recumbent cross, l suppose
to the memory of the soldier who was
killed at the same time (Trooper
Rogers. think, of Bettington's horse).
but no name is to be seen. A native
was also killed at the same time. The
trees look so nice and green, and there
are several little beds made with stone
edgings in which are planted hydran-
geas, lilies and little shrubs. But care
and keeping in order are evident every
where. There is little wooden cross
fast decaying, which records that it
was put up to mark the spot by the
Royal Scots Fusiliers. The little place
looks pretty, and outside are all the dry,
long grass and the ugly dongas. One
donga with water runs close to the
stone steps which lead to the cemetery,
and an embankment has just been put
up to prevent the water from washing
away the foundations of the wall which
runs all around the Enclosure, and on
the top of which are planted aloes.
About fifty yards off is the mealie gar
den (the kraal is now gomez, where the
Prince rested. He seems to have been
