Pleasing Remint.cence.

An old journalistic friend and con-
frere, Major Truman, dropped into the
HERALD sanctum yesterday, and, speak
ing incidentally Of the greatest female
violinist that has ever lived, said: 81
must relate an incident in the life of
Camilla Urso that has never been in
print. AS you know, l went out to Nash
vile with Andy johnson as his private
secretary in March, 1862; and, as we
were invested with great military as we'll
as civil power, / run the office of Provost
Marshal for several months, and no
human.being, Union or Rebel, Federal or
Confederate, man or woman, could
get out of Nashville without a
pass signed by me. One day, I
should say in August, Mrs. James K.
Polk came into my Office and introduced
to me a petite girlish- h-looking woman,
who she said, if my memory serves me,
was Mrs. Taylor, the wife of pianist,
and the mother of two or three children.
Then the little woman spoke up and said
that she was the girl violinist of eight
or nine years before who was known as
Camilla Urso; that she had married Mr..
Taylor some years before the war, and
had been shut out of the world COM

WE have very free and easy way of
running things in the United States, and
fiduciary obligations sit very lightly on
the lissom forms of defaulters, even if
they have attained the dignity of dea-
cons in fashionable churches. Matters
are different in the continental nations
of Europe. An exchange says:
In France and Germany bankrupt is
liable to be punished by Imprisonment
if it is found that his personal expenses
have been excessive, if he has lost large
sums of money by gambling or stock ex-
change operations, if he has put accom-
mediation notes in circulation to stave off
failure, or if he has failed to keep correct
and proper books. 1t is needless to say
that rigorous methods of this kind have
not been adopted in the United States or
England, where they would go far toward
adding to the number of those in penal
institutions. The tendency of the times
is SO clearly toward an unwarrantable
use of the credit system that 1t would not
be surprising il some check of this kind
were applied in England, and should it
succeed there, be adopted after awhile
in this country. As nations consolidate,
rules harden.

The Labor Battle south.

RALEIGH, N. c., March PA white
man named Cheek, one of the agents
engaged in inducing negro emigranrs to
go south, came to grief to-day. He left
here last night with about sixty negroes
for Mississippi, but at Greensboro, eighty
miles from here, he was overhauled by a
prominent farmer of this section named
Mail, who had him arrested and brought
back to this city, charging that
he had enticed away hands who
were hired to work for him by the year.
Cheek was arraigned this evening before
Justice of the Peace and found guilty;
and, in default of 5000 bail was put in
jail. His whole crew was left at Green's
boro, where they yet remain. The farm
ers throughout this section have been left
without hands enough to work their
crops, and are determined to make this

Sigel Gets SIX Years.

New York, March 2l.-Robert Sigel,
son of General Franz Sigel, who pleaded
guilty to forging pension checks, was
sentenced in the United States Court to-
day to six years imprisonment at hard
labor. The prisoner exhibited great ner-

wronged many persons, and that it was
difficult to find any circumstance to war

sentence pronounced. When the prisoner

Associated Press Dispatches to the HERALD
New YORK, March 21.-A Washington
special Ito the Post gays: President
Harrison will issue proclamation rel
ative to the Behring Sea which cannot
fail to attract international attention.
This proclamation will be the first infor-
nation which most people have that in
the closing hours of the last session of
Congress an amendment was incorpor-

act which in effect declares Behring Sea
is closed sea. ..gH
"The amendment in it's terms extends
the provisions of the salmon fishing in
Behring Sea; that is to say, the act for
bids the taking of seal by any one not
authorized by the act in the
water of Behring Sea, and does
not exclude them merely from
fishing on certain islands. The
amendment is of course of the greatest
importance to the Alaska Fur Seal Com

for them. 1t is also of great Importance

ATLANTIC CRY, N. j., March 21.-The
waves for two days past have been stead
lily underming the buildings on the inner
side of the boardwalk, particularly at the
lower end, from Michigan avenue down,
and when the terrible food tide and fur
ious waves last night struck them they
collapsed. Near Georgia avenue Pro-
fessor Jones was in bed when the waves
struck his house and demolished it. He
was thrown with stunning force among
the debris, and had miraculous escape.
Three families at the same place hardly
succeeded in making their exit through

A Dandy Hurry.

PITTsBURG, March 2l.-A Wheeling
dispatch says that there was remark
able occurrence in the United States
Court to-day which shows the futility of
any further attempt by the Government
to secure a conviction in the election
case, at least with the present panel.
William Myers, alleged to be minor,
was on trial, and this evening the jury
came into court and said there was no
possible chance of an agree
ment. The Court said it would
send them back, when the foreman,
O'Brien, said that some of the jury were
willing to convict if they could be as
sured in advance what the punishment
would be. The Court sharply reproved
the jury for this attempt to compromise
the case, whereupon the jury retired,
and within five minutes returned ver-
dict of not guilty. The sensation was
tremendous, and the verdict is the talk
of the city tonight. 1t is not impossible
that no more cases will be tried by the
District Attorney, although seventy in
dictments are in his hands.
