LEW WALLACE'S NLW BOOK.
''The Prince of India"—A Glance at the Manuscript. Major W. J. Richards, of the Indianapolis News, who is temporarily sojourning at Asheville, N. C., in a letter to his paper thus refers to General Wallace's new book: "I had the pleasure of a talk yesterday at the Battery Park Hotel with General Wallace, regarding his forthcoming book, "The Prince of India," of which he very generously turned some of the leaves,affording so trie charming glimpses. It is, as announced, a novel, but hews close to the line of historic truth. In truth, the author vindicates history against no less a scholar than old Samuel Johnson, who deals with the same historic personage whom Wallace has chosen for heroine in "The Prince of India." That doughty old author brings her life to a premature and ignoble close. At the time of the conquest of Constantinople by Mohammed II in the fifteenth century, the conquering Sultan, according to Johnson, rode into the cathedral of St. Sophia, where he beheld among the worshipers a Greek Maiden of surpassing beauty. In the frenzy of his pas sion the King propo-ed that his captives might go free of all other exactions if they would give him for wife that beautiful creature. It was done, and the King forsook all else in life. At length his advisors and generals becoming alarmed for the cause of the King and his army, waited upon him. To their appeals he at first made no response, but finally he summoned all before him. At the same time he caused the beautiful Greek to appear in their presence and disrobe, disclosing a face and figure incomparably beautiful. When, by demonstrations of approval of his surrender to such charms, his counsellors and warriors were about to withdraw abashed, the King suddenly commanded them to stay. Then advancing with his sword, he smote the proud head sheer from the divine form, and exclaimed: "You shall see whe'.hei my love of war and country hath a rival!" It is at this point where the author of the "Prince of India," well supported bv historic authority, performs the rescue of his heroine and bears her on in story until he tveds her to royalty and crowns her with queenship. "The book will be 150 pages larger than Ben Hur. It was contracted to appear in two volumes, but by direction of the author, only determined upon yesterday, the publishers will also iBsue it in one volume at $1.50."
A Fine Horse.
Mr. George E. Russell, the well known horseman of this city, returned to-day from Waverly, Jnd., bringing with him the stallion, Viking, 1843, having leased him for a term of years from Messrs. E. A. Olleman & Son, proprietors of Willow Brook Stock Farm, Waverly, Ind. Viking, 1843, is one of the best bred and handsomest stallions ever brought to this county. He combines the highest finish, style,' color and conformation with intensely fashionable breeding.

He is a beautiful dark chestnut. 16 hands high and without fault or blemish. He is a wonderful breeder, his colts are large, handsome and good actors. There area large number of his colts at Willow Brook Farm, mostly fillies, and Messrs. Olleman & Son consented to lease him to Mr. Russell as they have procured another stallion to breed to Viking fillies. They assured Mr. Russell that Viking was not only a sure foal getter but that 6eventy-five per cent, of his progeny were fillies. The horse will make the season at the fair ground and it will pay any one to go and see this splendid animal.

The Lotus Glee Club, freeh from success in London, are all artists. Their voices blend perfectly, and it is a positive pleasure to listen to the select'ons rendered by them. From the vocal waltz, which opened the programme, to the beautiful serenade by Abt, which was the closing number, the audience listened spell-bound. No such artistic singing has been heard for along time from any male quartette in this city.— Boston Journal. At the Y. M. C. A. hall April 5.

"WardB. Walkup's Surprise. MACE, Ind., March 29, '93.—The patrons of District No. 9 had planned surprise the teacher, Ward B. Walkup, at the close of his school, but the mumps becoming epidemic among the scholars it was decided by the patrons as nothing wished for but not good policy to execute, under the circumstances. But there was a surprise on the morning of the last day all the same. Three of the pupils, Chas. Lauthers, James Summers and Tobe Hostetter, all being at that period of their existence which makes it very hard to tell whether they are young men or overgrown boys, holding that awkward position on the fence between manhood and boyhood, met the evening before and after deciding which one had the most downy fuz on his upper lip agreed to surprise their teacher with a barbecued hen. Lauthers was made chief cook, Summers, master of ceremonies, and Hostetter, fireman. The hen was secured, but no one knows where from. She was killed by the Sullivan plan of twisting the neck, then taken to Sam Coulter's open ditch to be dressed and washed. Then they repaired to the school house where Hostetter had the stove fixed up seven times hotter than usual, which soon gave the hen a black brown cast which Lauthers pronounced as being done to a turn. Then after wrapping it up they placed it in the teacher's desk. The next morning after school had taken up the teacher opened his desk and saw a bundle which he began to examine. He soon came to the conclusion that Jack the Smasher hid been there and left a partly cremated infant in his desk. Just before he sent for the coroner the boys explained the mystery and Walkup admits for a surprise the boys made a success.

As his team was being cared for in the livery stable of Cy Booher, naturally on demanding his team he inquired as to the feed bill. Cy gave him the required information. Then Sampson gave a war whoop and be blankety blank if he would pay it. and inadvertantly, of course, he relieved some on Cy's ancestors. Cy gave him just three seconds to retract, but Sampson failed to conic to time. Not so wiih Cy: he came and came loaded and down went Sampson and over and over both went, and as soon as Sampson was able, to speak he at once began to take it back, but in so doing lie implicated Mat Burton. Mat opened his mouth and by the time he got it closed Sampson and his friend, to-wit: Mat Fearing, had paid the bill and forever shook the dust of Darlington lroin his feet
