The Wheeling daily intelligencer. [volume] (Wheeling, W. Va.) 1865-1903, 1889-09-24

A Virginia Bourbon declares that Ma.
hone was not much OF a Confederate sol.
der, and invites him to appear in public
to have his war record passed on. II he
does not appear, he is to be condemned
without hearing, as they do in France.
The same Bourbon asserts that Gem
eral Lee once sternly rebuked Malone
for proposing to starye Union prisoners
at a time when the Coniederacy was
short Of rations, This, 1t is argued,
should lose Malone the sympathy and
support Of Union men.
Where has this particular bloody
shirt been all these years, that 1t has not
been Haunted before2 Perhaps 1t Is not
a simon pure article, II so there is
enough Of the genuine thing to be had
for the asking,
1t may be that General Malone pro-
posed to starye Union prisoners, and
that General Lee said no, In which
case II is 10 DO regretted that the same
order was not issued to the officers in
charge OF Andenonville and some other
retreats Of like character
Any Virginia Bourbon who likes this
kind 6i campaign material can easily be
accommodated with all he wants Of II.

1t has been observed that laughter
is indicative Of particular temper and
character, according to the sound of
the vowel that prevails in cachinna-
ton. Persons that laugh in broad
Latin "a" are hearted honest
people, fond Of noisy jocundity, but
perhaps of voluble mood. Excessive
jerking laughter. however. is an evil
dence of vulgarity. Those laughing
in dry "a" are respectable but little
expansive, and q hard lot of people.
When the Latin "E'' prevails, there
prevails also phlegmatic, melancholy
temper. Timorous, unsteady people,
also those imbued with malignity,
laugh in q kind Of swelling '1.n

WEATRER.CROP BULLETIN.
WEEK ENDING SEPT. 7, 1889.

There has been an average tempcra-
ture and fair amount of sunshine in
eastern and southern Louisiana dur
ing the past week, and these con-
ditlons were generally favorable in
their effect on the growing crops. A
deficiency in the above conditions
are noted in the north western parish
es, with an unf.vorable effect gener-
ally.
Rainf,lls exceeding the average
for the week are reported from near
ly all stations in North Louisiana,
covering the sections that last week
reported greatly deficient rainfall.
Too much rain is reported from few
Of the extreme northern parishes, in
juriously affecting the bottom cotton
crops. The frequent and heavy rains
have also retarded the cotton pick
ing that is being carried on in earnest
now. A spell of dry weather would
be beneficial to the planter of North
Louisiana, but more rain is needed
in nearly all portions of the sugar re-
gion, from Rapides parish south.
The following are the weekly rain.

Sept. 22.-rhe temperance people are making a determined effort to again carry the town for no license, and are conducting vigorous campaign. The churches hold union meetings in the Town Hall every Sunday evening to further the cause of tenn perance and incidentally the prohibition amendment, and weekly paper is also be- ing published by the No-license club to help matters along. MT. P. A. Burdick. . noted evangelist and temperance worker, has now been engaged to work here for the next two weeks and will begin series of meetings to- night (Monday.) The temperance people certainly cannot be accused of listlessness, but it will require e hard fight to se- cure no-license vote, for many are dissatis fled with the past years trial of the system: Although great deal of liquor is sold, and sold openly, and drunkenness is very com- mon, it is admitted that the effect of the no. license law has been salutary, and without doubt a number of liquor dealers are merely holding on in hopes that the verdict for the ensuing year will be license. If 1t is other wise some of them say they will leave the town. The most serious argument against no license is the loss of revenue to the town and the consequent increase of in' debtedness. The fight is lively one at any rate

A Beautiful Fav0r1te of Napoleon Who Was Famous Throughout Europe.

A Beautiful Favorite of Napoleon Who
 Was Famous Throughout Europe.
 From the Philadelphia News.l
 The rumor which was current on the boule- wards of Paris few years ago that Mme. de Castiglione, the notorious mistress of Napo- leon III, was dead, revives a number of recollections of the once famous beauty.
 In the year 1859 there appeared in Paris 8 Count and Countess de Castiglione. They were Italians of good family, who bore with them letters of introduction to the best hous- es in imperial society. They appeared to have plenty of money at their disposal, took g handsome hotel on what was then called rAyenue de Imperatice, now known as FAY enue du Bois de Boulogne, and entertained in an uuostentatious manner. Mime. de Castig- lione's beauty soon became the talk of the town.
 Never had Paris seen such perfection in womankind. It was impossible for painter or sculptor to find fault with her features ol the lines of her figure.
 She was brunette, with rich, clear southern complexion. Her eyes, of deep vio- which the boulevardiers declared took hel half an hour every morning to unknot. He1 hair was blue-black. Her nose was of the bold Roman type, which is to rapidly disap- bearing in fair Italy. When she opened hs1 lucious red lips she disclosed two dazzling rows of faultless teeth.
 But beautiful as Mime. de Castiglione's face was, many thought her figure even more per feet. Her arm was Q dream, and a model o1 her foot is still preserved as ia thing o1 beauty and joy forever" among people who lived and revelled in Napoleon IT, E brilliant court.
 The Italian beauty soon succeeded in gain ing the Emporer's favor, and the Carbonari of Italy, whose enmity he had gained. through the wrestling from Italy the fair province of Savoy, thought it would be an easy thing for her to inveigle him to some place where his death could be brought about.
 While the plot was being matured, "La Castiglione" appeared at fancy ball given in honor of some foreign royalty. and her costume shocked the Empress Eugene to such an extent that she refused to recog- nize her and had her removed from the room.
 A stormy meeting between the Emperor and the beautiful Italian followed; she raved madly and threatened his death If the insult offered her was not atoned for. She was f. nally pacifed, the Emperor promising that the next night, at the opera, he would bow to her SO that all Paris would know that she stillIheld his favor. The plan was carried out and the Empress immediately left the house and shortly afterwards left France and paid a long visit to Scotland. It is said Queen Victoria's pleadings alone prevented her su- ing for divorce.
 Meanwhile, the Carbonari had decided that Napoleon's time had come, but "La Cas- tiglione" betrayed the plot to the head of the police and the arrest of the conspirators fol lowed.
