GALE BBOTHEBB, YSIDAy, MAY 33. 1883. THE STORY OF PRINCE AMCRATD. FEOil THE ARABIAN NIGHTS. In the kingdom of Khaledan there once reigned a powerful and prosperous pripce named Amnrath.. lie was descended from the ancient line of the Persian kings, of whose em pire Khaledah itself was, In former times, merely a province. Its people, however, ex asperated by the tyranny of their viceroys, had revolted; and after a bitter contest of seven years, their banners floated In triumph from the borders of Persia to the borders of India. They transferred their allegiance to the young est son of their former master—a prince who was not unworthy of his fortune. The astrol ogers had foretold, at hla birth, that a noble destiny awaited him. *■ He will become,” said they, “ the founder of a new dynasty, and his reign will be glorious and happy. Against dangers from without he has nothing to fear. The fairy Ilzaide will watch over him, and so long as he listens to her counsels, undazzled by prosperity and nncorrnpted by power, he willbe fortunate and strong. 1 ’ As prince Amnrath grew to manhood, these predictions were realized. In person he was well-formed, handsome and athletic. In hla youth he was a stranger to the effeminate pleasures and ignoble sloth, in which so many princes pass their lives, and he was rewarded, by the possession of health and strength, by a keen and piercing eye, a well-knit and power ful frame. His disposition was amiable, and he endeavored by wise laws to secure the hap piness of his people. The meanest peasant might confidently appeal to him for justice and protection; and daily, as he went forth, in gorgeous attire of blue and crimson satin, spangled with golden stars, his subjects fol lowcdhlm with songs and benedictions. By neighboring monarchs he was styled the Fortunate Prince. Hi* resources were wasted by no foreign wars; the fertile valleys of Kbal edau yielded their fruits with regularity and profusion; the Imm of busy industry never ceased; and so, year after year, the kingdom waxed more rich and more powerful. But “there is no cup without its bitter drop,” saith the Arabian proverb, and the fortune of Prince Amnrath was no exception to the common, lot of mortal*. At his court resided a potent magician named Abaddon, of an age so immense that he was thought by many to be Immortal. The disposition of this personage was crafty, implacable and cruel; Lis appearance hideous and repulsive. His body was so beat that he was not more than three feet in height, and his limbs were misshapen and distorted. His complexion was black, his hair coarse and kinked, like goat's wool, and his mouth disfigured by hor rible fangs. These deformities he sought to hide byrich and costly apparel; and he wore constantly a mask to conceal the hideousness of features which no one could look upon for the first time, without a shudder. This monster had appeared in Khalcdan, when that kingdom was a province of Persia. From whence he came was never .certainly known; but fame pronounced him a descen dant of Agar, king of Africa. Sultan Faln-il shoh bestowed upon him the province of Samarcand for his own possession; and this noble gift was confirmed to him by the laws of the uew government (whlcb, like tke laws of ilede and Persia might never alter,) when the sceptre of Fain-il-shah was grasped by his eon. The fiihy Hz aide—whose name signifies freedom—whispered to Prince Amu rath that his generosity might cost him dear; but he listened impatiently to this suggestion. The maxims of Ms finally, and the traditions of his people alike ascribed, to the magician extraordinary virtues- Many an austere dervish found in the dark sayings of Alcoran prophecies of Abaddon’s great ness ; and the claims thus made, and in dustriously encouraged by the object of them, were readily believed by the ignorant ami credulous. For a. time tlie sky above the prince’s head seemed without a cloud. Throughout his kingdom Peace and Plenty clasped hands to gether. The province allotted to the magician was ruled by him in subservience to“thc laws, nor did be seem to desire anything beyond. . Nevertheless, he secretly labored to imbue its people with a fanatical enthusiasm for himself and a zeal for his service, while weakening their attachment to their rightful lord. "With profound duplicity he secured the con fidence of Amuralb, who forgot his deformi ties, In the contemplation of his experience and sagacity. When consulted regarding the offices of state, he carefully provided that Ms matter’s servant* should also be his osvn. Finally ho requested from the Prince a large addition to the territory he possessed. This demand was complied with in spite of the re pealed warnings of llzaidc. The ilagician regarded the good fairy with bitter hatred, and instilled into las royal pupil a suspicion as to" her sincerity. Upon all other subjects Prince Amurath sought her .counsel, and Implicitly obeyed her; but to this, his greatest danger, beseemed blind and deaf. The insatiable exile, finding himself thus successful, demanded new and large conces sions. Bis creatures soon filled every office of trust or profit, and in return for bis support he compelled them to pay him a heavy tribute. The throng of parasites and courtiers deserted the antechambers of the palace, to bow before this new potentate! and in token of their al legiance, they knelt and placed Ms feet upon their necks. No one, who avoided this cere mony could hope for favor or advancement. The laws of EUaledan were dictated by Abad- • don, and its revenues were turned aside to en rich his favorites. ; His provinces were rich and fertile beyond any other portion of the kingdom. In the North the country was fre quently rocky and mountainous, and ice and snow lay for mony-months in each year upon the ground. But the people were active and industrious, and with patient toil wrung a tribute from the reluctant earth. In the South it.was fiir otherwise. There, perpetual sum mer smiled upon a bountiful soil; great rivers wandered through its valleys ; and the atr was cooled by fragrant breezes from the Indian Sea. But a blight rested upon it, and the rich est plains gradually became wasted and sterile. Its inhabitants wete'ignorant-and proud. Like onr own bedouins 6f ; the desert they boosted of their chivalry and hospitality, and like them also they were indolent, rapacious, treacher ous and cruel. To the great magician they were devoted with blind and unreasoning fan aticism. Prince Amnrath sometimes. sighed, as he thought of .the sacrifices he had; made for an' 'ungrateful subjefet and;was sometimes dis mayed at the prospect before Mm.’ He felt that the substance of power had departed, while bo still grasped its shadow. The warn ings of Hzaidc were recalled no. longer with a smite, but he stilPcontinued to drife with the tide which was heating him along, instead of bravely struggling against it. The disguise of Abaddon, long transparent, was dually cast away. Hemade ifesronr, the chief of the eunuchs, grand vizier, and de manded that the whole authority of the state should be confided to himselfi Prince Amnrath, prepared as he was Cor the evil day, -was at first astounded by this assumption. Bousing himself from his fa*sl sleep, ho called the faithful and long neglected fairy to Ms side; and urged by her counsel he suddenly drove from their places the minions • of the magician. The old officials, thus, startled from ihsnests where they had rioted go lodg, quilted them reluctantly as vultures. relinquish their prey ’at" the hunter’s cry. Immediately Abaddon fled to :hls provinces, and ra&ed the standard of revolt. ’ His follow- j ers flofcked around him, and, ere many days K the prince received intelligence that avast I army was .marching from the South, and thjtt ] bis veiy capital was threatened with deatruc- , tion. Be perceived, too late, that for tMs issue J Me enemies had been long preparing, while j be himself was unarmed and almost defease* less. Bat ‘ the spirit of Amnrath, though I lulled into security by a deceitful and treacher ous peace, was like a Damascus blade, which ; ni»y indeed, rust, in Its .scabbard, but whose ] exquisite temper remains the samf. He de- , lermintd to efface ihestaiuof the past by | • the glory of the future; "and, though menaced j Mid defied, he enjoyed the pro ad conscious- ! ness that be yet reigned in the hearts of Ms i people. u Swift messengers were sent to the aMeks of-erery loyal tribe, withsummon* to', defend their country, and the prince of their ; adoption. Scarcely was the callheard through . the valleys of Kbaledan before It' was answer- { ed, and a multitude of armed men sprang ! forth. At this battle -cry. the merchant left ' ids . bazaar, the herdsman, bia ; JLoeka, and ■the husbandman' his plow, to> fight for tbeir king In- the name ol the prophet, 'To : sustain.', this', \mighty host, jthe i rich and the noble- freely offered their wealth, and poured ipro ihe royal ' treasury Countless theapßiOf'goid and jewels!, FVom north, east, afcd loyal shiekS; battened; -to Kaq- j danar.thacapltal, with soldlers in : t,heirtraJn- .Thousands ©fhofßemenandapew-, men: touched, ik vthe.Taq, .aad>co outlet* < .

Is the army of Prince Amurath, were many who had been the creatures of the . jnagician in former - days, and they could not yet free themselves from the. influence of his terrible power. They opposed the armed re bellion of Abaddon, but sought and hoped for an inglorious peace by which he might resume his ancient sway. When he appeared before : them, they made obeisance, in the vain, en deavor to appease his wrath; and some, re membering their past subjection, and unmlnd firi of the present death-struggle, commanded their' soldiers to kneel, and swear allegiance to the arch traitor. In the midst of Prince Amnrath’s perplexity trom these evil tidings, his guardian. genius brought hope and consolation. “ The spirits who servo your enemy.are powerfulj”-she said, “but the spirits .of peace andTreedom are stronger. . To you I confide a talisman which can render the instruments of Abaddon ’ powerless for evil, and his invisible hosts sub servient to your will. Kay more, it can turn his mighty strength from the work of destruc tion and slaughter; and compel himself to be henceforth, your willing, obedient and faithful vassal” Thus speaking, the fairy whispered to the Prince some cabalistic words, which, he remembered to have heard, were, chanted la former times with solemn enthusiasm by the wise and good; but which in later days had become the scoff of the vulgar and the deri sion of the learned. “ This spell, 5 ’ continued * llzalde, w to be successful, must be uttered by the faithful and the pure of heart. Be your self vigilant and strong, and the prophetic brightness of the morning of your days shall be dim compared with their meridian splen dor.” These admonitions sunk deep Into the soul of Amvrati, who lost no time" In making known to his officers of state and to the lead ers of his armies the fairy’s talisman. By some the announcement was received with rage, by others with scorn. Few had the will to pro nounce the magic words, and still fewer the courage and devotion necessary to make them effectual. The greater number continued to bow before tbeir ancient idol, in spite of con sequent disaster and humiliation. When Scheherazade had proceeded thus far, she. was interrupted by an unmistakable yawn from her husband, who inquired if the story were nearly ended. “By no means,” an swered the princess, humbly. ‘ 1 Then we will hear the rest to-morrow,” said King Scharbir; “ but meanwhile I think.' Prince Amorath a foot In his place, I would, to begin with, have made some of my servants acquainted with the bowstring.” So saying, His Majesty fell fast asleep, and in a tew moments the fair Scheherazade followed his example. Triumph ofVree Homes—letter from Speaker Grow. [From the New York Tribune, Tuesday.] The following. letter, though written for one only, contains much that Is of widest in terest ; House or Representatives, May 16,1882. Dear : I have just signed the enrolled copy of the Homestead Act, which trill be a lawns soon as the-signature of the Presi dent of the Senate, and that of the Pres ident of the United States are attached. The long struggle for Land for the Landless is at last consummated. Ten years ago the 12th of this mouth, the first Homestead bill passed the House; and it bcsbeen-Bteadily pressed upon the attention of Cdngrcj-s ever since.

Any person can enter, under this act, laud op which he has pre-emption claim.. - The Congress is redeeming iu good faith all its pledges to the people.

It is a flaming proof of the sincerity of oar profes sions, and a clinching argument of the cer tainty of onr success. It shows a proud, a glorions sentiment. Let it be persevered in to the last. Let the cotton bum until the flickering flames show that the last lock has been consumed, before the enemy is permitted to get a pound. GOVERNMENT OFFICERS TO SERVE. President Davis, according to the Richmond Dispatch, has expressed the opinion that all the clerks in the various departments of gov ernment over 38 and under 83 years of age, are liable; with the residucof their fellow citizens, to military duty, by the regulations of the Conscription Act recentlypasaed by Congress. CONFEDERATE MONET. The Provost Slarsbal has received Instruc tions from the military authorities to require the banks at_Memphis to take Confederate notes as currency In the transaction of their business, and to arrest, as disloyal, all persons who refuse to receive Confederate money in ordinary business transactions. These instruc tions the Provost Marshal will vigilantly and rigidly enforce. - ' THE. BANKS PROTESTING. It was rumored in the streets yesterday,that the Union and Planters’ Banks were taking Confederate money in payment of debts, but doing so under protest. This is very unfor tunate, if true. Indeed, it is calculated to do far more barm to the cause than if they re fused it altogether. Since the above was written, we learn that it is not improbable that one of our bankers may he required to appear before the Provost Marshal this morning. ' WUAX THE PROVOST MARSHAL WILL DO. The order of the Provost Marshal will arrest the attention of our readers. Residents will not he allowed to go outside the corporation hereafter without passports. Pleasure seekers and thore having other objects in view should, take notice, and provide accordingly. PRICES UNDER THE INFLUENCE OP THE MONEY. We have heard of a fgood many fabulous prices asked in these times of scarcity, and have been surprised often to hear that they have been given, bat yesterday a demand was made for coffee that rather,took us further than usual The owner had but a few pounds on band, and he was determined to make the moEtotit. It was a pure article, and in or dinary times would have been held at 12 1-2 or but salt goes at 40 cents a pound; coffee being rather scarcer is thought cheap at tiro dollars end a half a pounds and not burnt at that. If that is not steep, we do not know what is. A few sacks would purchase a hand sone estate. PRICES OP BEAT, ESTATE, Seems to be looking up in our market. Yes* terday, about noon, aa wo passed down Main' street, we discovered a large crowd near the corner of Madison, and on nearing it, found Fat-smore was elevated on a stand, looking very savage, and crying oat, in an imploring manner, “ are yon all done at $525 per acre.” We at once discovered tint we had ran into a real estate auction, and we were curious to observe the ‘‘Bulls ” and “Bears ” in this de partment. For three hours did Passmore ••giveaway ?? lots and land at the following piKct: Five acres four miles from town at $553 per acre; 2A acres at SSOO \ 2,A acres at $525; 2A acres at $185; 10- acres at $380; 2'A acres ai $400; 2A acres at $300; 2% acres at $380; 1,060 acres Arkansas lands at $3 per acre; 1,035 acres Arkansas lands at $1.75 per acre. These w ere regarded as fair prices lor the property sold. THE CONSCRIPTION ACT. There is evidently some apprehension in the public mind as to the operation of the Con.-crin:ion Act. Tuat the law requires all Between the ages of 18 and 35 enrolled for service is true; but then the enrollmentis !o be tflecud by r-rdtr of the Governor of each State, and if he refuses, then some .*ne else is to act. Governor Harris has failed thus far to act in the matter, and the many misre presentations which have been made of the law, may have originated with those who are engaged in enlisting tor companies. At all events, there is no reason why any “ citizen “ or “ resident ” should be in a hurry. • The Governor has not. jet acted, and until he does, or appoints someone to act for him, there Lteu be no fears that, men will be sent to the war under its provisions. G, A. Gnow. ARRESTS IN RROWNSVIXJ.E. Wo learn that a party of thirty tire, who left on the Memphis aud Ohio road on Monday, got off at Beil's Station, and have since made their escape into the country occupied by the enemy—the object being tb avoid the con* fcripllon act. One of the party from, Memphis wss arrested at Humboldi, and ordered back; but when he got an opportunity he jumped off the train aud escaped. NINE REFUGEES ARRESTED. On Monday night, a detachment of a mili tary corps, on special service, arrested nine men—six German* aud three Irishmen—while making their way to parts unknown. They were caught in the act, and permitted to go their way lot Uls time. GUERRILLAS WANTED —KEEP OF HEMP.

A correspondent of the Little Bock True Democrat, writing from Memphis on the SO.li ult., details what he saw on the steamboit Aloniio Child while on the way to this city, and adds: After leaving Helena, we came to the cotton burners; several large steamers sent out by order of the Government to bum all the cot ion to be Joond anywhere on the river. A dreary, desolate view it was—the smoking, blackened bides floated past us, and in some places, the river for miles was covered with bunches, of the raw material, and the duckets that fringed the water were whitened as if snow drifts were piled up against their green spring foliage. The heart sickened at the sad spectacle that necessity had forced upon us, and as volumes of black smoke wreathed up lor ahead, the conviction was irrisistihly forced upon sll present- that we were in the great . theatre ol the war, where blackness and deso lation meet you at every step. The farms were inundated by the overflow, and the houses left tenant!css and desolate ; the only living things to be seen, were the cot ton burners at their patriotic work. The pros pect was sad for ne, but when the news reaches England, snivelling,' abolitionized England, a wail o! sorrow wfll arise that will shake the foundation of her ancient throne. . The destruction of the crop on hand, and the failure to plant this season, will open her eyes to the folly of her position. In ten days there will hot be 10,000 bales in the whole Mis sissippi valley, and none planted. The golden time has passed when Eugland might hive saved herself, but she would not; the fruits of her folly must rest on her shoulders. Before this reaches you, the great Mississip pi valley will haVuoo eotion, and if the enemy conquer the river, it will be a barren conques*, forhkelhe Russians, we have destroyed our. Moscow. The Misxisyippian furnishes the following statement, derived from a friend, of the defen-- ! es piepflred for New Orleans by Gen- Lovell, and the failure of which has brought down de nunciations upon that officer: There was u formidable obstruction placed between Ports Jackson and St. Philip, cou • sifting of heavy logs between forty and sixty' lect in length, lashed together by large chains' lunning acrofcs the river under the logs, and fastened on both sides of the rivt.r by planting very heavy'anchors. There were also about thirty anchors let down into the bottom of the river. So powerfully had this raft been built and listened on both shores, and so thorough ly had it been anchored that it was believed ny those who constructed it that nothing save the giving away of the bottom of the Mississippi itsell could break it. It was impossible Vo.- vessels to pa?s the forts while the raft was across the river. It held three months, but was finally swept away by the high water, the rapid current-, and the drift. A steamer and men were constantly employed U> attend to theralt, to iicep away the drift, &c., which, however, it was found Impossible to do. This Tail cost u<> less than $55,000 or $60,000, ami had it not been for the unprecedented high •water, it is supposed that it would have avswend the purpose for which it was in tended. After the raft was carried away, another ob struction was placed across the' river as soon as i otrihie, by anchoring small vessels, and running chains from one to the other, after .ilu-ii masts 'Acre removed. The men walked night and day to accomplish this. The ob ftliiH-tion thus made remained in position un til wnii.n two or three days of the light, when it-, too, was carried away in a storm by live vessels breaking u draft above it and coming down against ft, which they did with sirsat violence, the current being: very rapid and the wind blowing very hard, vessels were iainic dia’ely set to work to put this obstruction in position again, but the enemy would not allow them to do it, but lirtd upon them whenever lhi.yaitcmini.dir. The obstruction between tbc'foitt cost no less than §IOO,UOO. Tlnrewen* in Fort Jackson only three ten • loch coiumbiads—not one in Fort St. Philip. & COOD EXAMPLE. ‘VEGETABLES WASTED. "WHAT GEN. LOVELL DID. These three heavy guns were the only ones in ihe whole department. Both forts bad to gether ten or eleven eight-inch c*lumbiads, and Fort Jackson had one seven-inch rifle cun loaned from the Navy. Ths last ten-iueh eoinmbiad arrived in New Orleans but a few days before the light commenced, aud was mounted immediately iu the fort. If. is only within the last six weeks that there has been a tingle ten-inch columbiad in the department. At the ■works below the city two cight-luca. eojumhmds had been used without hem;r sub jected to a test, the enemy Laving opened upon the forts just, as they were'brushed. 1 he fire-t ounce of ponder burned in them wus lircd at the enemy. There was no time to lest them. Wc kara, however, that they worked well. These facts show that Gen. Lovell was aware ol the intention of the enemy and that he did, perhaps, all that bo could do to prevent his veM-eis from passing the forts. What he might have, done after the enemy had passed to cave saved the city from disgrace, is a ques tion for military men to decide. * Gen. David Hnnfer, tlm Commander Id South Carolina. Although the President has very properly modified the famous emancipation order ot Gen. Hunter, reserving to himself the right to proclaim the slaves of rebels free, still the people will think no worse of the General who made it* ami wc doubt If the President dees. Gcu. Hunter has identified himself vritb' Uie history of his country, and has found awarm.corner iu tiie ;heartß of all‘the true lovere of freedom. We are asked from several ndjoinu g States for informaTion concerning his early history. It fa as follows: M;ijor-Generjd David Hunter is a native of the District of Columbia, and was appointed to the army from that District. He is about girty years of age, and entered the Military Academy as a cadet, in September; ISIS. He graduated in 1&52, otaudiug No. 25 ln,a class of foity, in which wo find the names of Gens. J.
