FREDERlCk'S DIARY,

The Thirty Volumes by the Late Em-
peror of Germany.
There has been great deal of gossip
OF the widest end most scandaloas kind
about Prussian state papers which are
alleged to have been found missing at
Potsdam after the death of the Emperor
Frederick, says the London World, and
it is stated shat they were handed By
the Empress Victoria to the queen whe1
her majesty was at Oharlottenburg, and
that they are in England. These stories
eliminated in the maleYolent inven-
tiops of an evening paper about the
"virtual Imprisonment of the Empress
Victoria, which, however, were such
palpable fctions that they exclted no
attention st home or abroad. The real
truth, however, which reaches me from
q Trustworthy correspondent in Ger
many, is that the diary of the Emperor
Frederick can not be found. The en-.
peEor had kepsR journal during more
than shirty years (ever since bis mar
aiage) which was not mere record OF
his movements and occupations, but an
elaborate RAINING commentary upon
public atfairs-both political and social
very much in the style OF Mr.. Gren-
viIle's Memoirs. This diary was con.
tanned ia thirty immense volumes, each
being secured by look. and directly
after the emperor's death his successor
at the request OF Prines Bismarck. de.
manded that the whole of them should
at once be given up, in order that his
msiesty's "reminiscences might be placed
among the Prusaian state archives al
Berlin. The empress refused TO sur
render the volumes, and when q second
and more peremptory application was
made after the emperor's funeral her
majesty announced that the diary had
been taken to England by the queen
and that she would probably publish il
as il had been her husbands particular
wish that it should be published after o
suitable revision, and that he haG re-
quested her to act as his literary exeou-
trix. The empress, hear, added that
Justice to the late cmperor's memory

missioners He found that out of ST.
100 600 appropriated for the Missouri
river, less than $75 900 had been left to

The Result of An Old Quarrel.

B. A. Fonville and William Esllp, both
farmers and neighbors, living eigh. miles
from jackson, Tenn, had difficulty
which resulted in the immediate death of
Eslip. Bad blood had been existing for
some time between the two men. in conse-
quence of TOO great an intimacy existing
between Fonville and Eslip's wife. 1t IS
said that Eslip had frequently threatened
to kill Fonville. Eslip raised a difficulty
with Fonville's little son and struck him
several times. The father went Immediate
ly to Eslips house to ascertain why Eslip
had struck his son. On his arrival he was
attacked by Mrs. Eslip with knife, who
cut him severely on the chin. About this
time Eslip came out of the house with an
open knife and began to advance on Fon-
vile. By this time Fonville's son arrived
with loaded shotgun, which he handed to
his father just in time to save his life.
Fonville put the nuzzle of the gun against
Eslip's left breast and fired, the whole load
entering the region of the heart producing
instant death. Fonville gave himself up
to the proper authorities and was tried at
once and acquitted on the ground Of self
defense. 1t was proven at the trial that
Eslip had sworn time and time again that
he would kill Fonville the first opportunity.

from Arkansas and was considered dan
