England Keeps Several of Them In Safe
Places.
An insight may be gained as to
treatme in store for leaders of the
Boer republics who may suffer defeat
and fail to escape into either German
or Portuguese territory, by comparison
with that of princes and kings held
captive heretofore by the British gov
eminent. Approaching Calcutta on the
left bank of the HULL river at Garden
beach, the visitor will have pointed
out the fine palace of the late Valid
Ali. king of Oudh. There from 1856
until a recent date this prince was
held in semi-captivity upon an annual
allowance of 100000, the only proviso
as to his freedom Of action being that
he should not leave the vicinity of Cal
cutta. The king of Oudh, true to those
prodigal hereditary instincts which
brought about his downfall, not only
managed to eXpend this large sum, but
in the keeping Of snake mounds, men
ageries and other costly forms OF
amusement dear to the Oriental mind,
was obliged to draw frequently upon
the imperial treasury for further
amounts. Blazing with Jewels and
seated in a smart equipage, with serv-
ants in royal liveries, the king of Oudh
was often conspicuous figure on the
Calcutta maidan-the famous park

takes an outing after the heat OF the
day has passed. Far different was the
fate of the poor old Bahadur shah, last

Delhi, in 1851, he was tried for high

only lineal descendant Of Shah Jehan

of his days, unnotced, and upon a

direct from Berry Howard, indicted
as one of the accessories to the muir
der of William GOebel.
The communication was written
at Pineville on Sunday by a promi-

his name used, for the reason that it
might endanger his life, and was adj

close friend of the governor here. 1t
states:
Il was in Pineville last night, and
a gentleman and a democrat said to
me Berry Howard was i'll Pineville
Il few days ago with a Winchester.
When leaving he is quoted as having
said:
well, / guess Beckham is elected
governor, but he won't be governor
more than nine days.
would have written the governor
direct about this, but there is no GER
taintv about mail matter going
through to him without being inves-
tigated See the governor at once
and ,advise him as to this threat. 1t
may mean something, but keep my
name from the outside as having
made this report.
1t seems to me that some four or
five good men could 90 into Bell and
bag Mr.. Howard, and it looks like
steps should be taken in some way
to arrest him. Otherwise we may
look out for a repetition of the Goe-

careful with this letter, as there is
but little protection for democrats,
