Other Particulars.

Other Particulars.
Mr.. A ". Graham who came in from
Oxford last night, gave tie CHRONICLE
the following particulars
Cadet COWles was a well developed,
manly young gentleman-very popular
with his teachers and among the cadets.
He was eighteen years of age. His room
mates were Mr. Chas. Emery, of Weldon,
and Mr.. Wm. Kenan, of Wilmington.
he was first sergeant Of the company,
and was very fond of the manly sports.
His habits Were exceptionally good and
his character was all that could be asked
OF any one. He was at roll call yester-
day; was also at breakfast and attended
prayers at the opening Of the school
Not having any immediate Rotations
after prayers, he returned to his room
with Charles Emery shortly before the
second study hour. He remarked to his
friend that he felt very unwell, and be-
lieved be would go to bed, and would
not attend recitations.
When the signal for the next
study hour sounded, Emery left the
room. At the same moment young
Cowles went to his trunk, as if to get
something from it,
About twenty minutes later, Capt.
Drewry, while On his morning round,
called at his room, and on entering de
tected the smell Of gunpowder, and upon
looking around the room, he saw CoWles
| lying on the bed with his head pilloHed
against the wall, while blood COED from
a wound on the right side of his head.
he called M. Horner, and they found q
revolver lying between Cowles legs, on
the bed.
They examined him, and found him
dead. 4 jury was summoned by the
coroner, who, after investigating the
| affair, arrived at a verdict that the de-
ceased came to his death by pistol shot
from his own hand, but did not state
whether it was accidental or otherwise.
Young Cowles had recently been elected
debater of the Franklin Society for the
commencement exercises,
His father, Hon. W. H. II. COWles,
who was in Washington was notified OF
the sad occurrence by telegraph, and in
the afternoon Capt. Drewry, with Chas.
Emery and Robt. DeRosset, two ot
Cowles' classmates, left for Wilkesboro
the home Of Col. CoWles, with the re
mains. At Greensboro they will be me-
by Col. Cowles to day.
Young Cowles left nothing in the wa,

AbSolutiSm in Germany.

1t will be interesting to the whole
world to observe how far the freedom
loving people of Germany will submit to
the new absolutism proclaimed by the
young and little emperor Of Germany.
He out-Bismarcks even Bismarck him
self. The Anarchist bill presented to
the reichstag was prepared under his
direction. While it omits the expulsion
clause of the old Socialist law, it pre-
scribes severer penalties for attacking
the government and the emperor.
Williams speech to his people at Bran
denburg was a remarkable document.
In it occurs this passage, which the en-
peror may possibly be destined to hear
ring in his ears on his death bed:
see in the people and the land intrusted to me
by God talent which, as the Bible says, it is my
duty to increase. mean with all my strength to
so trade with my talent that will be enabled to
add many another thereto. Those who help me
heartily welcome; those who oppose me dash to
pieces
Here is absolutism as despotic as that
claimed by the car. "The Almighty gave
me this whole people to do as 1 like with.
They are mine as absolutely as if they
were serfs. If they domy will, well and
good; if not, dash them to pieces"
But our age is poor time to assert the
divine right of kings. Ex-Queen Isa-
bella remarked mournfully not long
since that God was no longer on the side
of kings.
Thirty-seven out-and-out socialists were
elected to the present reichstag. This
is three times as many as ever were
sent thither before. 1t is not likely that
these and their constituents will let even
an emperor prescribe what is good for
them, and measure it out in doses to suit
himself. A few acts of despotism, few
more violent speeches, and William may
find that in our time it is the people who
dash to pieces the kings that oppose
them

Even despots are controlled in our day
by the people they are supposed to gov
ern. Since the shah of Persia returned
home he has tried to introduce western
reforms into his country, with the result
that some of his faithful subjects begin to
think he is crazy. 1t was an attempt to
do the same thing that caused Sultan
Murad v of Turkey to be pronounced
insane, deposed and held prisoner till his
death. which. it is said, has just occurred.
1t was Sheikh-ul-Islam, the priest at the
head of the Mohammedan church. who
caused this to be done. If the present
sultan should endeavor to make radical
changes in the established order of things,
the same fate would undoubtedly over
take him. In China the building of the
railroad from which so much was hoped
has been stopped for the present, because
the priests have inflamed the peoples
superstitious fears and led them to be-
lieve the vengeance of heaven will fall
upon China if this sacrilege is permitted.
In these countries, Persia, Turkey and
China, it is the conservatism of the es-
tablished religion that stands most in the
way of progress.

screen Or wall, not mere fixed objects,
but scenes of life and movement, such as
are observed on the white table in the
camera obscura. The invention includes
peculiar sort of photographers camera
of about q foot square. The instrument
is pointed at a particular moving object,
and by turning the handle number of
photographs are taken every second.
These successive phases of a scene In

Living ExnenseS in ENGLAND.

Little as our readers may think it, this
wonderful feat may be achieved, and by
anybody-provided that he has the thou
sand a year. A book has been published,
of course by lady, which solves the
problem. Given the 81, 900 (S5,000)-
most people, unfortunately, have to earn
it-you should spend it thus: House rent,
rates and taxes, repairs and renewals,
are put down at nearly e200; two ser
wants, on board wages, e100; "keep of
self and wife" another e100, and insur-
ance, $50. These estimates seem fair
enough, though we fancy most people
would find it cheaper to feed their SER
wants themselves. The other items are
more questionable.
Washing, at e26, does not seem ex-
travagant, though, to be sure, soap is
cheap, and in such household there
would not be many soiled tablecloths.
But when we come to personal expend-
iture, there is still stranger calculation.
The wife, apparently, is to dress and
supply herself with pocket money out OF
e75, while the husband is allowed e10C
for clothes and nothing at all for pocket
money. Perhaps he is expected to take
it out of ''incidentals," which amount to
the substantial figure e313. But as these
incidentals are expected to cover travel
ing, amusements, club subscriptions and
charity, it will be seen that e313 is not
likely to be bit too much.-London
