and then rising, accused his wife of be?
ing a witch and using witohoraft, aud
that his eldest daughter confirmed bim
in his. accusation Ho says ou Saturday
night be told his wifo he wanted the
children to leave; that bis wi?e stripped
naked nod knelt down and prayed for
fifteen minutes. They theu stripped
two children, took them ont, drowned
them, and laid them side by Bide on tho
bank of the stream. They then dashed
out the brains of tho infant, and left it
lying in the woods, after whioh they re?
turned home and weut to bed. After
laying tbero fifteen minutes, he told his
wife he wanted to send her to Heaven,
and immediately strangled her to death.
After that he rose aud prayed until 3
o'clock in the morning, whon be went to :
the nearest neighbor aad told the whole '.
story. Margnardt is a German farmer,
and has beon in tbis oouutry about eigh- i

P?o BON MAILS.-The nee of carrie r
pigeonB as a meaos of postal convey ance
during the recent siege of Paris is worthy
of attention, by reasoa of the great im?
provements in tina mode of letter trans
potation which Freoch ingoouity de?
vised and perfected, aud it is a matter of
surprise to us that more publicity has
not been given tu tho subject. The
pigeons wero made to supplement the
balloons, by bringing back to the city
answers to letters sent off by tho latter;
and to this end every balloon sent from
Paris carried in ils car a number of
pigcous, ruiscd aud trained in tho city,
which upon reaching their destination
were freighted with messages and let
loos? to fly back to Paris. Those which
escaped the birds of proy and the Prus?
sian balls, 8oou returned to their dove?
cotes in the oitji, whero they wero re?
lieved of their precious burden, aud kopt
in readiness for another balloon voyage.
But with the ordinary writing aud paper,
each of these messengers contd carry but
u small number of seutonces without ho?
ing over-burdened. To send long docu
meuts and numerous messages by this
mode of couveyance, it was necessary
that some mode should bo devised for
lightening tho medium of correspond?
ence. The happy idea was conceived of
photographing the messages microucopo
cally, upou a very thin substance, uud
thus condensing a great amount of mail
matter into a very small compass and
weight. Tho success of this scheme,
when put iu practice, was most remarka?
ble, aud it gave au entirely new impor?
tance to correspondence by carrier
pigeons.
lu carrying out. tho scheue, all tho
communications for a single province or
department destined for Paris were Heut
by means of telegraph to some central
point, whero they were put in type in
close columns, like a newspaper, with?
out blanks or interlines, uud uu impres?
sion printed I beret ron. From this sheet
a microscopio photograph was taken
upon au exceedingly thin pellicle of col?
lodion, inea?uritig about au iuch-und-a
helf square. lu this way, about 1,000
despatches wer?: photopraphed in minia?
ture upou each pellicle, and owing to tho
lightness of the material, tweutyof these
little squares rolled it]) mid placed in a
quill, could be attached to u pigeon, with?
out cmbirasaiug its Hight. Gue bird was
thus enabled to carry upwards of ,'10,000
despatches, averaging ti (leen words each.
To dituiiiiaii their chances of miscarriage,
some thirty or forty proofs of cadi pho?
tograph were taken, and as many pigeons
sent off, euell ono bearing a like sot of
proofs. Arrived at Paris, thu roll nf
pellicles was taken from its quill, each
one placed m a basin of water with a few
drops of am monia, and thus made to un?
roll readily. They were then dried,
placed between two plates ot gins-., and
subjected to a powerful microscope iu u
magic l?utern, illuminated by the elec?
tric light. Tue magnilied image HU?A ob
taiued was photographed anew, and th'j
restored despatches were forwarded I.?
the aillions expectants.
Tho oat liest pigeou despatch from

iug Paris b.it duriug the latter part of
tho biege, o'.i og to bad weather and
snow, many of them wauderod away or
were lost, so that their precious burdens
never tame to hand. For greater secu?
rity tiny were carried as near to Paris ai
possible before being sot loose, many be?
ing conveyed from other points to Bloise
aud Iberuted there. During tho last
two wteii.i iu December and the first in
Jauuarjr, though many pigeons had been
sent of! iu luilloous, not a single ono ar?
rived it tho city, und there was au en
tiro dearth of news from tho provinces.
Gu the t?: h of January following, one ol
these Bindest little messengers winger
his waj over tho roofs of Paris, utterly

TUB yfJiBB OF OA^I, SCHUKZ.-A Wash?
ington Is^ter to the New Orleans Times
says:
The effort made by Carl Sohurz will
be loDg remembered as one of the moat
remarkable exhibit? of oratory ever wit?
nessed in a chamber famous for snob
display. Those now living who can look
hack with knowledge to the day when
Webster, Clay, Calhoun and Corwin
wore wout to charm tho curs of hearers
iu that forum, readily admit that this
effurt of Senator Sohnrz towers above
them all. This ia saying much, for the
natural inclination is to exaggerate tho
past. Tho orators of a former day were
remarkable, but this one of ours is a
wonder. Senator Sohurz has a remark?
ably cleur and rather pieroing voice.
He speaks with a great command ot lan?
guage and a somewhat German accent,
but HO far as choice of words and con?
struction of sentencoB uro concerned, in
the purest English. For hours he held
that vast assembly, and when he closed
there was a strango mingiug of relief
and regrot, suoh as one feels at the end
of a beautiful and tragic opera, when
the last strain poors out aa the ourtain
drops.
I happened to be witness to a little
soone of domestic beauty that was to me
exceedingly- touching. Mrs. Sohurz,
wife of the Senator, is ono of the most
beautiful aud accomplished women in
Washington. Her experience iu social
lifo has not diminished her sweet Ger
?jjan nature that is as impulsive aud
gentle ne a child. Sho had read, as 1
subsequently learned, the attack made
by Senator Coukling ou her husband,
and, wife-like, she thought it terrible
and nnauswerable. On the Tuesday
Senator Schatz wai to reply, she wan
dered about restlessly, and ut Inst, una
bio to control herself, about 3 o'clool
went to the Capitol. Sho thought he
would have concluded by that time, nue
all, for good or bad, must be tiver. A
the fiibt entrance, she found the door
keeper with his head thrust inside. Sh?
asked far her husband.
"Oh! madam," cried the mau, "he*
making such a speech! Come in; all tin
ladies aro on the floor."
Shu held buck, und a pago hurry in;
iu, brought out Senator Sumner.
"Do come iu," begged tho Macsachu
setts oiator, "anti hear your husband ii
tho grandest effort that over fell fran
human lips."
Over-persuaded, she was "led througl
the crowd to a comer, where she elrop
peel into ? seat ki utily offered her. Sh
drooped her fair beni iuto her bauds
hiding lier face, and. wo can imagine
heard that dear voice in viudicutiun
ai.d in such un earnest appeal to tli
American people for justice to nu reel vc
and purity for our institutions, whil
tho im meuse audience responded i
eh?cp hiieuce ur wild applause. Who
that voice ceased, and at last she looke
np, her eyes were we t with terns. We
mau like, she had found relief in wee),

The yoong women who bewail their

line acad?mies, and whose matare sis?
ters claim for them the worla's protec?
tion against the tyranny of selfish mac,
have bad the tables turned on them by
two greut lubberly boys, who clamor for
admission to Vassar College. It remains
to be Eeen if the orgumentative Banco
which women's jouruuls concoct for the

triculated among scholastic ganders,
will equally apply to these male
fettherless bipeds. We pause for an
answer.
