THE F-X-EMP11ES3 IN 1'ARIS.
PAKIS , January 23 Et Empress
Eugene announces aho ignprea the ro
publij and comes to Paris to display
her uympathy with Prince Jerome.
Her propone j is a toplo almost r.a ex
citing as thu atroat of the prince. It
ia said Eug no waa cognizant of the
manifesto. Her adherents claim her
presence raoanaadomonitration In behalf -
half ot the name of thu family of Ni-
poleon. This , it Is observed , is con
sidered rather doubtful , owing to the
well known oolnoss between the ox-
empress and prince.
TIIK RESULT OF THE ELECTIONS
in the bureau ( f the chamber of depu
ties for members of the commlttteo on
bills dealing with pretenders to the
throne , is found In favor of the gov-
ornniout bills , with certain restric
tions. Six are in favor of Floquet'a
bill , and ono in favor cf Balluo's.
Eighty votes were given for meinbjrs
favoring the government bills , and ,120
for those f jvoring the billa of Flcquot.
The report , of a ministerial crlsiu is
not confirmed. The ministers decided
at a council to-day that at to-morrow's
titling of the committee elected to-day
they would explain their policy in re
gard to pretenders.
THE DIFFERENCE ! IN THE CABINET
have arisen from the discussion of the
third clanee in the government bill to
place the Orleans princes , now in
active service , on the retired list. It
is understood that the minister of
w.ir refuses the ndheslon , while it is
aflirinod that the other members of
the cabinet favor Balluo's more stringent -
gent amendment decreeing immsdlute
cashiurlng of the prince * . The 1 tit-
tor's hacah enactment is the stumbling
block over which ths ministry prom
iaea to break up btfuro lone.
A DANOKROCJ.H CHI-IS.
LONDON , January 2-1. It in hardly
poaaiblo to overrate the dangerous
character the mmistcrhl orlsia hna av
sum id. Throe cabinet council. ) worn
held Tuesday when tlio now epjc
committee showed a majority aguiunt
the government. The minister of war
and imrino reigned but President
Groy rjed , them not to resign. Ho
said , "You are a soldier and you are
a sailor. I am qai o ouri you would
never desert your posts under fire , but
if you retire noiv and lo.ivo me with
out a cabinet that v/ould bo desertion. "
It ia certain a ministerial crisis is
Imminout. The idea of having P/inco
Jetomo tried by the senate appears to
have been abandoned. Prlnco Jerome
wanted to see n whole troop of friends
under the pretext that they were hia
counsel. The judge d1 instructions al
lowed Jolliboia , bonapmist deputy ,
to act us hia counsel , also making
three advocatoa , but has intimated
this will bo the last. The police make
a search m the oflioo of The Petit Oor
poral for the manuscript of the arti
cle which appeared in that paper , urg
ing imperialists to bo notivo and press
ing in proiliiming Prlnco Victor em
peror of Franco.

OBASPINQ MONOPOLIES.
Valuable Franchises for No thing : .
NEW YORK , January 18 The down
town streets of this city wore torn up
all last summer to enable stoair sup
ply ire ; companieo to lay their pipes.
The privilege of keeping the streets in
an impassable condition and of putting
thu public to great inconvenience co.it
the companion not u cent , except what
tiny paid to have their schemes log
rolled through the city council. Now
that the pipes are laid , the companies
and their property nro a greater nuis
ance than ever. The pipes are of a
poor quality , and two or three little
explosions have occurred , fortunately
without serious consequences. In sev
eral places , too , the steam escapes to
the surface , nnd comes biasing up
through the cracks in the pavement.
The appearance of Eichango place ,
where a dozen little volcanoes seem
to be in a state of violent agitation , is
enough to turn the thoughto of the
prudent to the value of insuring their
livoa for the benefit of their families.
The escaping steam ia a source cf
consternation to horaee , and the sltua
tiou gives pleasure to no man or boast ,
except the email boy who plugs up tbo
holes to produce n small-sized expk
sion. The business houses along the
street denounce the whole thing as an
'outrage , and it would not bo surprls
ing if application wore made to the
courts to compel the companies either
to put down eafa p'pes ' or to koej :
steam out of them , It is thought
hero that Chicago vonld not bo likely
to tolerate the impositions cf all sorti
that are shouldered upon the tcircely
complaining New York public.
The most valuable public franchise
are given away for no consideration
nt least for none that benefits the
public. Elevated roads tuko from

MUllDKKINO A HUSBAND.
I was born in St. Joe county , Ind
in 1851. When only sixteen years c f
age I WSB married to Benjamin Swig-
ard , a German mechanic , in Marys-
vlllo , Mo. Ho waa a man of Indus
trious , though at times intemperate
habits. With him I lived nine years ,
becoming the mother of throe chil
dren My maiden name was Emma
Hoard. I cm apeak the French , Gor
man and Latin languages as well aa
ho English. My mother'a name waa
usan Hoard. I have a brother In
lisaourl | naraod Cheater. In 1870
my rr other aud brother , aided mo in
murdering my husband for hia money ,
> no evening he caino homo drunk
hey throw him down on the fljor ,
nd I ntrnck him on the back of the
oad with the polo cf an axe , end ho
eon expired.
Aa aoon aa wo naw ho was really
nad wo laid him upon a bed on hia
ace , when mother and brother loft
or their own homo in another prtrt of
: i3 town. I took the children nnd
ent to a noighbor'n. Here
asked for lodging und
rotoction from Ben , my husband ,
'ho , I said , had como homo terribly
itaxicitod , aud I craved their aym-
athy and shelter till such time aa so-
rioty nnd reason might return to this
nan whom they knew to bo a faithful
unhand and kind father when not
rozad with liquor. All the f tvora I
ou ht were readily granted. I spent
alcoplcHS night. Its hours were
orlodi of gtlof , intervening with ro-
inorao. It alng early and leaving the
hildron , I repaired at day's dawn to
ur ead and bloody homo , I noon
ave the alarm that Bon was dead
nurderod daring the night fjr his
money. Thin view ueotned for n time
o pans aa true , but afterwards the
hree mother , brother and I were
u-ieatod , but acquitted for want of
adequate ovldonce. "Wo got Swig-
ard'a money , about $1 000 , and deeds
o Borne lota in the town rfhcro wo
.hen . lived.
8MOTIIKKINO A QUEST.
Af torlhla wo kept a lunch und lodg-
ng house in Mnryavillo , Mo. A
atrtngor stopped ouo evening fir eup-
> er and lodging. That night we three
ook hia life in order to get his money.
Af tor smothering him with n feather
jed wo struck him on the head with n
itinnner. Wo concealed his body in
\ piio of rnbblah in the suburbs of the
town. These remains were not dis
covered for weeks , and when found
were so much changed by natural decay -
cay aa to have been unroocKniziblo by
: ho man's moat intimate friend ; hia
nwrno or homo wo never learned.
In 1878 , I first mot your son , I. V.

wo were married , At Barliogtjn
Junction , Mo , I first made hia nC'
quaintuco , but wo were not nnriicil
till wo moved rn H jckpott , Atchlnson
county , 3Io. Not long after we went
to llulo , Ndb. , where my first child ,
by Stillwoll , was born. Wo named 11
Gortio , but its father 'H J not know
till wo had boon marred n year and i
la'f , that I had ever boon married before

CHOKINO A DAUOIITEK ,
I never really loved Gertlo. 8h
WAO from birth puny , fretful nnd mi-
prepoajcasing. And my brother Ohes

otino and niyfe'f murdered the chiM
among ui. Wo undo n a'rong deu"c

It down the girl'a throat , holding her
nose till nho ceased In breathe. My
aunt made the to3 , Cheater poured it
in the child's mouth- mother held ila
nose and I kept it on my knee till I
felt the last quiver tf life die nany.
My brother wus about to strike tin-
child on the hi'rtd nitli the Rhoe ham

would show. As soon as wo saw tint
Gertie wno dond wo w shi > dwr \ and

KILLINO A MOTIIEK
After Oortitj'a burl. l 1 feared to live
any longer in that place. Wo BOOH re
moved to Ottumwa , la. , whoru wn rem -
m tined till last November , when I got
no sick that vro thought best to como
homo to Ohio , where I nm now d > it g.
Out let mo tell yon that when in tlio
weal brother and I attempted twice ,
af or Gertlo'a death , to murder her
father. Wo fixed upon n niijht for the
deed. Twlco Chester and I went into
his room when wo thought him asleep ,
designing to take his lifo. Both tlnu-n
ho was nwako , nnd excitingly inquired
what wo were after. Wooxouaeit ourselves
solves by saying that wo were huuting
a rat , or clucking the noise of a rat
tling window , thus fully allnylng all
suspicion. At last , wo agreed to ocnd
for mother to aid ua in Stlllwo'l'a
murder. On the journey mother mot
with n railroad accident which so dis
abled her that uho lay a holplots inva
lid at our house for six month : .
Duringall thin time my innocent , kind ,
unauspoctitiR husband treated her in a
manner truly humane. Ho paid all
her surgical and medical bills , and ,
when she died , nil funeral exponoos
oven planting a plain stone to her
her grave.
Must I Bay it ! Mother died by my
own hand , nnd by mine alone ! She
hid murdered my father ; alao an ille-
gitinuto child sent to her to put out
of the nr.y She is said to h ; ve done
thia deed for p y ft few doll jrs She
had aided in the deeds I have just told
yon. Wo had sued the railroad of-
ticora for the injury done her ; BO I
de'p tohod her ono night with the
hummer which was used in the death
of others.
This confession the dying woman
made to the writer nnd to Stillwoll ,
her father in-law , and when the substance -
stance of thia terrible recital was rend
to her oho assented to Its truthfulness.

Wuhlngtin American Register.
While the cotton crop of the United
States was , in 1860 , 3 200,000 bales ,
Now Orleans received 2 200,000 ; now
when the crop is 6.000,000 bales , New
Orleans handles only 1,400,000 bales.
In 1860 New Orleans received 78.000
hogsheads of tobacco ; now the tobao
oo crop Is doubled , aud Now Orleans
does not soli or export 10,000 hogs
heads. In 18UO New Orleans received
22 per cent of the Imports of the
United States ; now Now Orleans does
tint import 2 per cent of the whole. In
18CO Now Orleans sent to South
America 35,030 barrolH of flour ; now
not a barrel. Of 200,003,000 pounds
of cofToo imported annually , 70 par

20.000.COO pounds enter New Orleans ,
and yet the valley of the MiesiBaippf

catkin will give a bill cf lading at

of coffee In Chicago or St Louis via
Now York Oity , using a ship of 5,000
tons burden , for loss money than it
coats him to deliver it in Now Orloani
in a ship of 2fiOi , ) tons. The secret
which is no secret , connlotain the fac
that Vsw Orleans is luacceualblo by
the largest ships from the ica , and
great railroads from the west employ
Eada and the river commission to prevent
vent the incoming of great vessels
capable of carrying "grain in bulk'
nt New York rates from Now
Orleans to the world's markets. While
the congress of the United Statoa deliberately
liborately invests hired agents of thi
railroads with supreme power over th
fortunes cf the pijoplo of the valley pf
the Mississippi , they will bo rnbbid
annually of not loss tlnn5200OCOOCO
or the sum they w > ud ! auvp by resort
ing to water inatettd of railway trans
portation ; while the government ex
pends countlees millions at Hell Uato
and other points about Now York that
ships drawing forty foot may hnvo ao-
coaa to that city , this railway-ruled
government is content while thoee
railways subject western farmers to
an annual Iocs of $200,030 , because
the Mississippi , at the behests of rail
way owners or their agents , the river
commission , must remain forever n
"mnro clauanm. "
There Is no plainer duty imposed
upon that body , which should promolo
universal commercial and agricultural
prosperity , than this involving the
opening of as perfect a waterway from
