nido is to the effect of tonsplriicy ou ihe

iiiniuallhVdedly fslse. There were no organ
tied band such ns lllounl deseribul. Our
notion Hgaliut lllouut unit others was tsktn
for protection, they hating tbrc.itemd to
get negroes together to bum tlm tiiwu. It
was repoited tint lllouut had 10 or 11 armed
negroes in his hoiue. Aftir eoiisnlutlou we
concbnlod that it would not be safe to Itt
him remain there. Wiluess was acting as
-bicf of (Kilien. The utfalr was quietly
managed und no violence couleruphited.
Witness conitdered tho Uiedls wltuesi.es tho
most bloodthirsty men ho etur saw. When
they wero acting with the Democrats they
proposed to kill thu Itepubllcau lenders. It
was uaturnl enough tor us to think when
they tumid m it to the other kI.Io that they
would propose to kill us. The testimony
of witness throughout was cbutr,idictor to
llcpuhtU'iiu wituctscj, except as to lllouut,
HruUs aud others being ordered to leave the
parish, but witness said that that waj not
political. He declined to express an opin
lou as lo whether it would be safo (or UndJs
to return, they having done great iujiutlcc
to the whole people of the pnrwli.

Improbable Rumors.
I have just received a niece of news I
should havo lieen inclined to treat with
incredulity, if 1 had not obtained it from
a quarter worthy of high consideration.
I am informed that on the reassembling
of Parliament in February tin intima
tion will ho made in both Houses, that,
in consequence of her recent bere.tvo.
ment unit for other considerations, also
of a persoal nature, the Queen luu de
cided to ivlintpaish tho reins of power in
favor of tho I'rinee of Wnlea as Vrinco
Regent. Of course, I give ou this ex.
truordinnry intelligence for wleit it is
worth. I may, however, be permitted
to remind you that there have already
been llegenU at tho html of the r'tuj
liah realm, und, although wo .should do
ploix) tho day that witue.visl tho abnega
tion by tho Queen of that power which
she wielded with hitch bingul.tr wisdom,
yet it would be tmpo.vdblc, at the Mine
time, not to feci that in 1k-:u trans
ferred to tho l'lincv of Wales the sover
eignity had passed into hands already
familiarized with the exercise of royal

Homo years njro there wan a caso of
child-murder in France. Thu child had

' knife uippo-ed to have been used in the
commission of tho deed, was found in
tho po-iStssion of tho accused. A care

Moved to ho blool htitins, in a crovico
between tho bl.ido and handle, which
had been overlooked in the cleansing pro
cuss which tho knife had gone through,
nnd the substanco was submitted to nn
nhlo microscopist, who, after n thorough
investigation declared that tho nui
statico was huiniu blood; that it was
tho blood from thu region of tho throat
this fact determined by tho presenco
of tho epithelial Kcales peculiar to thu
fauces, nud, furthermore, there wero
found frugmonU of rabbit fur. Thin ar
ray of facts wan conclusive of tho uno of
the knifo in cutting tho throat of the
murdered child the additional circum
stances being elicited that nt tho timo of
tho hilling thu child had a r.ihbit-furtip
tut nbout its neck. Confronted with
theso discoveries, tho prisoner confessed
hor guilt (thu unii'itur.tl monster was n
woman), und was executed.
Another case, whichl havo met some
where reading but cinuot recall tho facts,
wa.i wheruthe accused attempted to prove
an alibi, and would havo been successful
hut for thn fact that his bootn wero cov
ered with a whitish mud, and it occurred
to tho authorities to have this mud ox
iiiniiied by n competent nucroscopist.
Tho examination showed that the mud
wan diatnmaceouseaith, and identical in
itH contained forms with a deposit whero
the crimu hud been committed. This
conclusively disproved tho alibi, nt leaat
