"fLAtcr the captain learned Irons's his ".1ry. It appears that lie was left at lzent Island t>y a trading vessel about four years ago, his businces being to rep. resent the trades in the cocoanut oil trade, but the vessel had never called for Irons since leiving him, and he had graduaAlly assumied the habits of the na tives and finally becarme so muich like therm in appearance and manner of life lie was not inr tiny way to be distinguish ed froi the people among whom lie lived.

I saw Captain William Gooding at his home in Tarmouth to-day. lie said he had no doubt the man at Pozeat was the William Charles Frederick Irons in quired for. The description given in the letter from Somerset House tallies in all points with that of the man he met at Pozeat. Captain (ooding says that at his first meeting with the man at Pozeat, in sur prise at being addressed in the languge of civilization he exclaimed: Whatl Can you speak English?" "I ought to," was the answor, "for I was born in London." Captain Gooding says he left Irons at the missionary station at Ruk, Irons having accompanied him there on the return voyage of the missionary boat. When they arrived the misaionaries were greatly surprised to see Irons, for they had heard a report of his death at the hands of the savages in December, 1878. The party also muet at one of tho islands in the Ruk lageon Ilarry Chisholm, who was at one time a shipmate of Irons. lie was surpriped to see Irons alive, having heard the teport of his death. From infortuation gathered by Clp ltin Gooding it appears that both these men were at one time together in a ves sel trading ainong the ishlind. This may be the ship chartered ait Brisbane that Lancel..t Irons refers to in his let ter. One fea'.ure of the trading carried n by the veqs'el was the kidinapping of nativCs from the Caroie and Northern groups to the Fijii and other islands. It wias (urinL! a trip of this kind among the New GuO:na islanders that the tight occurred which lud to the report of Ironm*a death. The bn-i nets was broken ip by mei of-war ten or twelve years ago, since wihen Irons has livid a savage life at Po zeat. Chishohin, who id Irish by birth, liAs livod in about tle same Pond-tion. lie is a man o influence in one of the fillee tribes of natives inhabiting at large iountainous isl id in tihe luk lagoon. This lagoon is about thirty mnilesin cir vieumf:-rence, and contain' seven or eight islands. Captain Gfooding thinks Irons would iike to retiri to civilization if his future upport were assured. Ile will write to London to that effect, and will t3ay that a letter addressed en.e llev. Mr. Suelim-, missiouary statin, Nak, will probably reach Iron's without unIvecessary delay. MORIE TRIOUBLE FOR MRS. MORRIS. Mr. Morrt'n Will to be Conteted by 111. Relativen and tho 1,irw Iasuraie Coim Plany. Rm)svlrLE, N. C., January 30.-As was well known, there was more at stake in the trial of Mrs. Morris, charged with causing the death of her husband by chloroform, than the merc. conviction or acquittal of the fair prisoner. There is the large estate of Mr. Morris bequenth ed in his will to his wdfe, and a $10,000 insurance policy on has life, also p-tyable to Mrs. Morris. The acquittal of the prisoner, of course, throws all this into her hands; whereas, had she been con victed, the will of her husband would have been null and void. This is the home (if Mrs. Morris and it is in this thriving town where most of the proper ty mentioned ill the will of Mr. Morris is located. It is learned to-night that there will be several lawsuits over the matter, and there is more interost in store for the pretty Widow Morris. Relatives of the dead man will contest his will, on the ground of undue influ. ence on the part of Mrs. Morris in in dlucing her husband to make its provi sions in her faivor. The Mutual -Bene fit Life Insurance Conmany of New York announce thait they will fight the cas~ till judgment day before they will pa1y over the ton thousand dollar policy.

PRESIDENT STACKIHOUSE IS VERY IIOPEFUL. le Thinks the Order hia Made a Fine leinnlsr, and wiel Coullnue to tOrow -The Jute Trust Will be *Downed."' Gen. E. T. Stackhouse, President of the Farmers' Alliance of South Caroli na, was in Charleston a few days ago, having gorc there to organize a sub-alli ance in Charleston County-the first in. stituted in the coast section. In a con versation with a reporter for the Sunday News, Gen. Stackhouse said: "As to tihe prospects of the college, we have the best reasons to believe that the suit in the United States Court will be decided about the lot of May. Col. Orr, who has been in Washington, has returned and met with the trusteces. As I understa,id it an alternative motion was made-either to hear oral argument or to submit a case to the Court in wri ting. The latter alternative will be adopted, I think, and in all probability the whole matter will be decided at this term of tlb. Court." 'Has the Alliance, in your judgment, come up up to the expectations of the farrnersf" "Well, that is rather a broad ques tion, and one to which no one could give an all incli.,jve answer. But I do not hesitate to say that the general principles have worked well. There are exception al cases in certain sections, where there is now trouble. Everywhere else I Ihould sny that Alliance methods have been cuintntly successful. In Lancas tei there is trouble and despondency by reason f the failure of the crop." "lHow does the Alliance propose to meet such emergencies?" "That is a qIe,,tion yet to be an swered." "Are the people of Lancaster members of the Alli-ncu?" "'Some of them are and some of them are not. But, at any rate, the Alliance cannot be expected, in such disasters, to p)ia manni debto; nor can it make him abie to pay them. As a general rule where a man is crooked in financial mat ters or careless in obligations he is bound to get into trouble. "But, after all these minor matters, the Alliance has surely done a great deal of good; and we are Vrowing more rap idly than we ever did." -What is the mire c,r the army nowl" "Not leis than i.irty thousand, a small proportion of vhich is c moosed of ladies. There is stil a great dial of material to b, enroll, ' So f-.r we have formet Allaveces in every county in the State except Bep -: ort. Charlesten wheelcd into line t lay.

He is a great organizer, one we-l qual*1 ed for this position. I sup-rvive the work and attend to the finance" ol the new organizations." "IIow has the cotton cover for coitn worked this season? "lI am of the opinion that ctomuis ti success was prevented by a to!- wide range of subutItutCr f - jute. A great peal of the s.ff that was put on t he cotton should not have ueen used. T.it was, however, a very excusable blunder, and especially as it was the result of the zeal and anxi.-ty of the farmers to whip out the Jute Trust." "What impression have you made on the jute monopolists?" "You may judge of that from the fact that jute men offered us jute this very season ar. 7 cents a yard." Getn. Stackhouse then went on to talk over a few other matters, which need not be published tut this time. Hie im pressed the reporter as being a thorough ly practical man, and one who talks to the point and calls things by their name. RACE AND RELIGION. Why a Conforeuce Will Not be ReId in Melwan, Aln.
