The rivalry between Kansas and Ne

Day has been a commendable one.
The Governors of bpth States issued
proclamations in favor of tree planting,

made to set out 2,000 shade trees. Other

It is stated that John L. Sullivan, is
. now lying dangerously sick At his home
in that city. Should his disease prove

peace and good morals of the country
will suffer materially by his demise.
Jay Gould has selected Capt. John

selection of every article of furniture,

audit and pay all bills, and render a
statement weekly to the owner.
The yacht will be finished under
Shackford's directions. Tho two years'
voyage will not begin before October.
The first winter will be passed in the
Mediterranean. Thence the -yacht
willproceed to India and China. Noth

Contributions will bo voluntary, but
such is tho interest shown in the scheme
that its projectors are sanguine of ac
complishing muoh good, providing
homes for many worthy men who were
disabled in the war and are unable to

Ker. JDr. Milburn.
f-" "Sargent Smith Prentiss and j Flush
Times in Mississippi" was the theme
discussed at the Opera Hquse last night
by the Rev. Dr. W. II. Milburn.
There wa8 only a fair audience, when
the house should have been, crowded,
but those who had the good fortune to
bo present were some of the most intelli
gent and cultured of . our r citizens and
they were delighted and captivated by
the interest surrounding ihe character
as wellas by' the elegant, manner in
mt1i?Vi f!ia efn.t urna rll .
Dr. Milburn was introduced to the
audience by Rev. Dr. Wilson, whoi
stated in the happiest manner iraagin
able that 4tho distinguished speaker,
although blind, had seen more than
many who were blessed with sight and
much mors than some it even they had
been Argus-eyed."
The speaker opened by giving, a des
cription of the "Flush Time3 of Mis
sissippi," their" main characteristics
and the causes which produced them.
Into these scenes in an easy graceful
and interesting manner; he , introduced
Sat gent S. ..Prentiss,' describing his
personal traits and characteristics, hi3
unexampled success as a lawyer; his
brief, yet brilliant, career las a politi
cian ; his generous hearty bin weakness
es, foibles and follies and j his death.
'i '
Each of these was illustrated by some
anecdote showing the -character of the
wonderful man he was jdescribing and
whom he knew well and loved sincere
ly... Throughout the enlire lecture the
audience was spell bound, both by the
interest attaching to the subject and by
the wonderfully j magnetic power
eloquent oratory h of the speaker.
and
No
one thought ot fatigue, the flightof time
nor of anything else but lo drink in
everv syllable which fell like sweet
music upon delighted ears. We had
heard much ot .the meteoric career of
Prentiss and "were ex peeling a ' rich
treat, but the feast far exceeded-ourex-pectations.
j .
- jWe remember reading many "'years
ago what purported to be an episode in
tlie lite of Prentiss and the times and
Ucalities in which he lived and - was , a
conspicuous actor, that, whether cor
rect as to facts or not. fairly illust rates
one phase of his character and some
thing of his surroundings, which we will
AndAAvor to relate. ! It ; was about as
follows : 1 !
Prentiss and several other lawyers,
in travelling one of tke judicial circuits
pf Mississippi, arrived at a country
town where court was I to be held the
next day. As usual upon such occasions
'here was a largecrowd in attendance,
some drawn thither by the duties of the
court, but others from curiosity, tne
purposes of trade or to have a "good
time." The hotel had poor accommo
aationsatthe best and with such a
crowd there were hardly any. When
the time foj: retiring for the night came,
Prentiss and some of his legal friends
were shown into a large room in which
there were several: beds, where they
were to spend the night as best they
contd. To pass away the time for
awblile they indulged in games ot cards,
stopping-occasionally to-take a drink,'
until towards morning'when they blew
out the lights and retired. But uot to
sleep ; for hardly had they laid down
when swarms of bed bugs took posses
sion of the bedsmand made sleep im
possible To arise and relight the
candles' was the only alternative and
this they speedily did. and then took
their revolvers and began shooting their
midnight tormentors. The report of
firearms at once drew a crowd to their
door and among them was the land
lord, who expostulated indignantly at
their treatment of his bedding which
was being preiiy moruuguiy iwuid
ivith bullets. They quietly told him- to
withdraw as they were bound j o shoot
all the vermin they could find and they
might possibly: consider him as such
and continued shooting. ?"At
leneth a - iYery
larger bedbug
attention called
was seen and
to his unusual venerable
appearance,
he was the
some one declaring that
grand patriarch of all the'bed bag fam
ily, another claiming that he should be
spared in consideration of his venerable
appearance, and at last it was decided
to- put him on, 'trial for his life. A
judge and prosecuting : officer were se
lected andthe ; duty of defending tne
culprit was assigned to prentiss. All the
formalities of atrial were carried out
with the strictest deoorumby those law
yers, who had nothing on but their
nightciothes. - An able speech; was
made by. herps eclutins? Z bfUcer 4tnd
there seemed but little hope for the of
fender! Prentiss, however, wasv equal
to the occasion, and when the time ar
rived for him to" be 'heard, rose and
made one of the most masterly speech
es ever made by that wonderful man.
For two hours he plead foj the life of
lhat insignificant creature jwith such
pathos, such unanswerable logic, leak
ing it one of God's creatures, carrying
out merely I its God-given instincts
and with such impassioned bursts of
eloquent oratory that the prisoner, was
set free amid the approving shouts of
the bystanders. : It was stated .that at
times during the delivery of his-speech
the sobs of rude men could " be heard as
he moved their hearts by his oyer
powering and sublime pathos while at
otherv times the very rafters of the
building shook with the shouts of ap- j
plause which greeted his fervid oratory ;
at times men looked pale and trembled
- . . i . .. -i
at his terrible invectives while anon
they would seem as children lulled
by
the soft song of a fond mother.
