THE V,\l> ICAX GIRL. She 17Her vV?"?ys ;iu<I Must T;;ke tlie j Consequences. 'From th> Xansas City Times.) j It is truthfully asked if something can ;ot be done to protect our women, J the poor Iambs?something to guard ! tbem against the wolves of fortune-1 hunter?, footmen, body servants, coach- j men and the iihe. No, nothing can be done. Nothing j ought to be done. God, in his infinite j wisdom, never intended that anything | should be done. It is simolv a question ! of the survival of- the fittest. Every week of the world tk-^se women upon whom so nr.; oh empathy is being wasted hQv^ t' ? minister unto them Moses and the prophets. L- the way of warning, line upon line and precept upon precept come to them even in their dreams. If, then, they get into a matrimonial hell there let them be. Lazarus will no more go to them -with a drop of water than he went to the rich man, praying like a dervish for one. If these a Pairs are allairs of the heart let them break or harden. Women lit to be American' wives and mothers ought to be courted in the good old way, and go to housekeeping in the good old way. They do neither of these things "when they permit themselves to be imposed upon and finally preyed upon by some foreign thrt small of a civet eat on his hair, a huge brass watch chain and dirt unuer his finger nails. The only wonder about ail tiiis bogus tittle business is the wonder that American girls? gently nurtured, daintily surrounded, sought for by stalwart, chivalrous, wellknown of their own country?persist in going abroad to find husbands, and even alter they have gone abroad that the;.* cannot tell the pinchback from the pure gold. It does appear as if they might smell the stable-groom through even his broadcloth and his pacthouli; that all the rogues whose patronymic ended in oli' or olisky might be told from the peculiar limp that never leaves a man after he has once worn a ball and chain j that the odor of garlic would reti-iA i.-Vr-tvhr of some Shacknasty Jim of a Florentine count; that waistcoasts splotched with wine, and cravats frayed hers and there abont the middle, would give warning that some Freneb valet had come wooing in his master's cast-oil.' clothes. But fashionable society is much to blame for this, say the apologists of the sweet little lambs. >"o doubt. Fashionable society in some of the large* cities is monitrons, but society cannoi hill the woman who does not wan: to be killed. The glorious crown of pure, true womanhood was never yet stricken iron w earthly brow, unless that brow bent ir acquiescence to the hand of the despoiler. However, it is useless to moralize. The American girl is pretty well under stood by the country. 'When she want' to marry she will marry, even if she ? * - ? j -f marries a wooden intiian m trout oi i cigar store. ? ?a??

The trial of Joseph Schlemmer for mur- j ler was begun in the Hudson county court: Oyer and Terminer in Jersey City last j .veek, and before the hour of adjournment: (. ill the evidence was in. j ^ Schlemmer shot and killed his child bride j t, in Jersey City on August 1. lie is 22 years | old, and is boyish in size and appearance. [ ^ His bride was only 14 years old on Janu- j i ary 11 last, when they were married. They ' r separated, and it was her mother's influ-1 er.ee that kept them apart and resulted in 11 the tragedy. c "W lien a": rested he was despondent and I \ willing to die. ar.d attempted suicide in his ! s cell by cutting his wrist with a fragment of j j glass. He struggled to save his life, and i j said the shooting was accidental. i j Mrs. Emma Mann, mother of the mur- j , dered child, testified that the ante-nuptialj , agreement was that her daughter Lilliewas ! j not to live with her husband until she was j of age. He threatened six months ago, she said, to sho >t Lillie if she did not live ( willi him when the time was up. Chief 3Iurphy testmec: mai ocniemuici i told him he had killed Iiis wife because his I mother-in-law made bio life miserable. Schlemmer, who was examined in his own behalf, told the story of his short married life dramatically, and said 'hat on the day of the shooting he spoke to his wife and her mother pushed him away, and his wife told him she wanted nothing more to do with him. Then he followed her. drawing his pistol. "I intended to kill myself, not her/' he said. The Story of a.

The Valley Mutual Life Association of I Virginia is the largest and the leading I Life Association in the South. Over | one million of dollars has been paid in I cash to the families of deceased mem: bers. ! The cheapness of its plan is demon! strafed by the experience of those who : are insured. In illustration of this fact, I we take Policy Xo. 3, held by Mr. W. P. j Tarns, Cashier of the Augusta National | Bank, Staunton, Va.,?Policy issued !

At j ! the date of this insurance Mr. Tams was i ; 27 years of age. j A policy of even amount and date in I one of the most popular Old Line comi panics on the ordinary life plan, payable ; at death, only, would have cost him $192.75, or $21.50 per year?a saving of ; $122.31 in favor of the Valley Mutual.

It was rumored [Monday that Mrs. Lang; try was to figure in another suit, in addition i to the one Mr. Gilmore has entered against . | lier, but the rumor could not be suustan: tiated. The rqmor was a very indefinite I one, not cveu the nature of the suit being ! hinted at. A reporter called at the offices of Mr. ; Bowers, of the firm of Piatt & Bowers of i 2Co. ?4 William street, who is Mrs. Lang' try's counsel in the Gilmore Langtry case. 1 Mr. Bowers is out of town. The clerks in the office said that as far as they knew Mr. i Bowers was Mrs. Langtry's only counsel, ! and that they had heard of no suit against the Lily, and would be the first to know of I such a suit. The first information they ; had of that kind came from reporters, j The Gilmore case will not be up for some ! time. Touching Act of a Murderer. The wile and children of Vincenzio ; Julianc, murdered Dadano, another ; Italian, are on the verge of starvation, and i that is why the prisoner is so downcast in i the Newark jail. His wife has been admitted :o jail every day, and the keepers ; noticed that she carried away a small bunI die at each visit.

His allowance of food was at once doubled by ' the jail officials Mrs. Juliano said that she had no money i when 1 he shooting occurred, and that all j the Itnl ans but Gabriel Yalentio shunned ; her.

Manning, | United States Minister to Mexico, who is in Vr.w VnrL- wsi<rnf>rl his mission p.nri ! will not return to the Mexican capital. The circumstances connected with Judge ! ' .Manning's confirmation by the Senate, al-1 though known here by a s.ood many peoj pie, hav-j never been given to the general j public. ; It will be remembered that he was api pointed to the position in the summer of j 1SSG. i'efore Congress met in December, j a report was sent out from the City of ! Mexico, seriously reflecting on Judge Manning's lis bits and fitness to represent the j United States abroad. ] Whether the report was true or not, it j had grea, effect in the Senate and threat| ened~at one time to cause Judge Manning's | rejection The Minister's friends, howI ever, backed up by the staunch supporters ; of the administration, assured the commit i tee on foreign relations that if the nomination was reported to the Senate favorably ; and Mr. Manning confirmed, he would shortly resign. They stated that his health was such that he was anxious to return to Louisiana and urged that they were anxious for his con-j firmation, partly in vindication of Judge Manning and partly in vindication of the J administration. With this understanding j the nomination was nna'ly reported favor ?hlr nnd confirmed. Actinsr unon the I promise mode for him by his friends, ! Judge Manning has now sent bis resigna-j tionto the State Department. Mr. Thomas B. Conner}*, a Xew York j journalist, consented to fill the secretaryship on the understanding that when 3Ir. Manning's expected resignation was accepted Mr. C'onnery would be made Minister. If this is so Judge Manning's successor has already been chosen. j ''Is there no balm in Gilead? .

New Yokic, October d.?Sir Thomas! < Jrattan Esmonde and Arthur O'Connor, ! 1 ioih members of Parliament, arrived here j I o-day in the Arizona. There was a big | [elevation of well-known Irishmen on the ;: )ier to meet them. They were escorted to j he Hoffman House, where they are to re- i: nain for a time. "We are here," said Mr. O'Connor, <4as i he representatives of the Irish people and i >f the Irish Parliamentary party, to ac- j knowledge the generous and valuable as-. iistance which our kindred in America have jiven us at home, and to explain to them hat although things look gloomy at the present, yet they are so filled with hope i ;hat we arc justified in asking for a contin-: .ranee of the support iriven us in the past from America. Tiie Irish people are in ; the fi.sht and will stay in it until they win." j "ffrhon viffi pvrwt to have a jreneral' election in Great Britain?'' "From all indications I believe wc will have a general election next spring. The ! result will be the complete annihilation of; the Liberal-Unionist party, and the return ; of Mr. Gladstone to power. If we may i judge from the last elections he will have j a good working majority. Every month j appears to add strength to the home rule i movement in England." "Will the Tory government en-force the ; coercion act in Ireland?" "Now that they are committed to it, I think they will enforce it. The Irish pec-; pie have now before them a period of great ; trial and great persecution." "Will many of the Irish leaders be im-! prisoned?" "I believe there will be quite a number of them imprisoned. The treatment of Mr. O'Brien is an incident indicative of the character of the administration, and of the mode in which they are prepared to exercise the despotic powers which the coercion act has given them." "What policy will the Irish National League adopt in the facc of coercion ?" "TIipv will arivoftite free sneech. the right of public meeting, and combinations for all legal objects." The details of the trip of the Irish patriots throughout this country have not been settled. They will, however, go to Boston after the meeting in this city, visiting, also, other places in Massachusetts. From Massachusetts they will proceed to Philadelphia, after which a Western trip will be in order. The entire trip, which will take in Canada as well as the United States, will occupy about three months. (From the Philadelphia Times, Oct. 5) Philopatrian Hall was crowded last night at the meeting of the Muificipal Council of the Irish National League. The perfecting of the arrangements for the reception to Thomas P. O'Connor and Sir Thomas G. Esmoude, the agents of Mr. Paraell and the Home League, was the principal busi 13ess before the Couucil. These, distinguished gentlemen will visit this city on 13th October, in company with the President of the League.. Horticultural Hall has been engaged for that evening. It was thought this hall would be too small, and the committee was instructed to cmgage, if possible, Association Hall for the same evening.

San Francisco, October 3.?The steamship Oceanic arrived from Yokohoma and Hong Kong this morniog. She brings Hong Kong advices to September 9. All arrangement is reported to have been made between the Chinese Government and the Great Northern Telegraph Company, working in conjunction with the Eastern Extension Company,, for an extension of the Imperial China telegraphs to Kalgan and Kiachta, which will give a direct tcle<rraphic route from China to the continent of Europe and Great Britain. Jt is said the Great Northern Company is to pay the Chinese Government one hundred thousand taels on condition that the Chinese pay the same rate per word as the two companies, namely two dollars. The arrangement is to continue in force sixteen years. Considerable indignation has been expressed at this attempt to obtain a monopoly | and Inter reports from China respecting the ! China-American banking and telegraphic | syndicate for which Count Mitkiewicz neJ ^otiated concessions, 3re very conflicting, j It is stated that Yen, President of the Board ! of Revenue, has strongly petitioned the Emi press not to grant- the proposed concessions I and the China Merchants' Company has re^ pudiated ail connection with the syndicate, i Thp English interests in China have been endeaving to prevent the final consummation of the grant to America. Blaine Losing Ground. It does not look as much like Mr. Blaine in '88 as it did. The political situation of the Republican camp is changing. Six months ago it looked like Mr. Blaine would have a walk over for the nomination, but I repeat that a change has occurred. Here in Washington the change is surprising. Republicans who were red hot for Blaine are now saying that perhaps it would be a mistake to again nominate him, and Republicans with Blaine leanings are now for either one of the Shermans. General Sheridan, Allison, Hawley or Gresham in preference to the Plumed Knight. Out in the country th& gradual diminishing of the Blaine sentiment is noticeable. Leading ! Republicans are speaking boldly out against I Blaine or any other man having a mortgage i on the presidential nomination. This change of feeling is significant, for it means that the Republicans are satisfied that they cannot beat Mr. Cleveland with Mr. Blaine, and propose to bring out another man. This is about the size of it.?Washington Special to Courier-Journal. The Texas Cotton Crop. Galveston, Texas October G.?The 1 News tomorrow will publish returns from ! sixty-one counties in Texas on the condition : of tlie cotton crop. It says editorially: ! "The outlook is by no means favorable. A month ago the prospects of the Texas cotton crop were very flattering for a fair yield, but these flattering prospects have been sadly reversed within the past month. Rains that came in August found ihe crop much more injured by the drought of the early summer than there was reason in August to believe, and the good that the August rain did has been ruined in a very large proportion of the State by the ravages of t|;e cotton worm. Over thirty counties reporting show a loss in yield, compared bale for bale with last year, amounting on the average to possibly an excess of 2o per cent, while not more than thirteen of the caunties show an increase compared with last year, the increase averaging not more than 15 per cent. This is a sorry showing for the cotton crop of the State. A num-1 her of counties show equal to that of last year, but the damaged portion of the Stat', embraces the counties which usually make the greatest yield." The Neirs closes its summary by declaring that its reports may be relied upon, and predicts thai the cotton crop of Textts will not reach the yield of last year as a maximum estimate by 7 to 10 per cent.

Cincinnati, October :j.?One of the uost remarkable costs of concealment of 5(-x has just been brought to light in this; ;ity. On 26th September application was j made to Colonel L. A. Karris by one of the trustees of the Dayton Soldiers' Home for Lhe admission of a sick veteran to that institution. The soldier called at Colonel , Harris's house and was given an applica-; < tion blank to be tilled out The veteran's : 1 name was James Fisher. He had a letter ; from Colonel Tafel, the Colonel of his j regiment, which stated that Fisher had re-1 j ec^ved a:- honorable discharge after two i; years' service in Company C, Sixth Ohio;: Infantry. Fisher was ill and unable to provide for himself. Colonel Harris gave ; him transportation on September to ; i Dayton, with a letter to Colonel Patrick. | I:f iK,. T?nmp refiucstin-r him to take care of tac bearer until be could be provided for The medical examination at Dayton revealed the fact that Fisher is a fully developed woman. Of course she was not re- j ceived into the Home, ar.d no one knows i where she now is. Very little is known of her history, except that she is 59 years old. Ever since the war slie has continued to dress like a man and live with those of that sex. In appcarancc Fisher is short, heavy j set. with a round, smooth face, dark hair and eyes, is somewhat effeminate, but no one has ever suspected her sc-x. Colonel Tafel says the woman was one of the! bmvesl soldiers in his regiment. He was astounded to learn that Fisat-r is a woman. j i A Lon^ Ocean Race. Sax Francisco, October 5.?Captain Jos.- W. Holmes, of the ship Charmer, which arrived here from New York today, winning the ocean race upon which she started with the ship Seminole, from New York, on May 10, was surprised to learn that his vessel had not been beaten, as the time of making the trip has been unusually long. Captain Holmes stated that frcm the time he sailed out of the Narrows until his arrival at this port he had seen or heard nothing of the Seminole or ship George Curtis, which saiiod from Philadelphia on the same day. The Charmer was delayed by baffling* winds and rough weather around Cape Horn. The weather off the ! Cape was extremely cold and the ship was covered with ice much of the time. Thomas Smith, a seamy n, was lest overboard a few j days after leaving Nuw York. Upon arriving outside Golden Gate thisj morr>in<r ('nnt.iin Holmes declined the as sistance of a tug and came into the harbor uiider full sail. Mr. Benton W. Crisp, president of the Democratic city convention of Baltimore, has resigned that position in a letter adI dressed To the chairman of the city executive committee. The letter is a scathing denunciation of the manner in which the party affairs are managed, and has created j a decided sensation. | One Lived, the Other Died. ! A woman formerly our slave is now i our cook. About eighteen months ago : she became sickly and had a cough and was confined to bed, and it was thought ! that she had consumption. The treatj ment by physicians failed to give relief. | In December, 1834, a node or knot the size of a goose egg formed just above the pit of the stomach, which, whei; lanced, discharged matter for eight or nine months. One of these also formed under her arm, and three on her back, which discharged matter for a considerable time.
