He was originally a trader In Senegambia, and at a dinner-party, given by French officials in that country, he became Involved in a quarrylia from which arose six duels.

She has been seven years on the stage, and during most ol\that time has been acting in St; Petersburg. * -Women in England that can afford to keep a husband mustie prepared to give their un? fortunate partners an allowance when they determine lo dissolve partnership. Thia has Jost been decided by Lord Penzance in the case of Milne vs. Milne, in which Mrs. MilneL against whom a decree of divorce was allow, ed, was compelled to pay to her husband out of her separate estate an annual som of ?500 towards the maintenance and education of the -children of the marriage. It is a rough rule that wont work both ways. -A New York letter says: "A new and spicy club has just been iormed up town, in the neighborhood on Fifth avenue,-and ls com ' posed of a number of unmarried and wealthy men. These intend giving several large re? ceptions during the autumn and winter, io vitlng only pretty women, for so the laws of the club especially direct and specify. Mar? ried men are only allowed to "look on" in this paradise. Any young lady distinguished by invitations to these may ieel doubly assured of ber appearance: therefore fatvit? will not die from lack o? cultivation." ?-& letter from Paris gives what purports to ?e tha line o? defence which General Rossel, ex-communist minister of war, proposes to adopt when he shall be brought to trial. The plea is acuriouB one. It will be that be Join? ed the Commune merely to endeavor to drill the National Guard of Paris into such a condi? tion of efficiency as to be able to drive the , Prussians oat ot' St. Denis. In this enterprise ' lie boped, also, to secure the co-operation of the army ol Versailles. M. Thiers Interests himself greatly in Rpssef and, lt is said, has promised to exert himself to save his life. -The Pope'sjjrunclo, says the Paris Gaulois, had an interview with M. Thiers recently. Monsignor Chigt spoke of the Intention of the Pope to quit-Rome and go and seek the hospi? tality of Malta or Spain. M. Thiers showed himself decidedly opposed to such a step. "There is," he said to the Nuncio,'-a French proverb which Bays that he who quits bis place loseB it. The Pope in quitting Rome compro? mises the future of the Holy See. His pres? ence at Rome ls, at least, an eloquent protes? tation, against what passes there. I have no counsel to give his Holiness; but were I In his place I would not badge; I would wait." -The parchase pt the Engl'sh telegraphs by the government has been a good speculation lor the nation. The total amount of purchase money was seven and a half million pounds sterling. The receipts so lar amount to ten per cent, on the Investment, the expenses to only Ove and a half per cent. The profit of four aDd a half per cent, is very satisfactory, considering the newness of the enterprise, and it is announced as being constantly on the in? crease. It is proposed at the earliest possible time to make the uniform price ot messages to all pans ol the United Kingdom sixpence, and thus more effectually popularize the system. The present rateB, however, are very mach cheaper, than the lowest ones that prevail among the private companies ol the United States. -Oe the 16th instant a cargo of fresh beef from Texas was landed. at Philadelphia, con? sisting ol two hundred and twenty beeves, cut into quarters, making about 170,000 pounds. The cattle were slaughtered in Texas on Aug? ust 1st, and, after being cut up, the beef was Immediately transferred to the held of the vessel, which was supplied with ice after the .manner of a refrigerator, the steamer (Fire Fly) belog built 'expressly for the transporta? tion of fresh beef, fue voyage from Rockpott to Philadelphia was made in nine daysf and the beef, when unloaded, found to be as iresh and sweet as on the day of Its shipment. This is said to be the first consignment of tbe kind that has ever reached Philadelphia from Texas; but it is expected that the success o? the ex? periment will give rise to a new and profitable trade, which will greatly reduce the cost of beel in that city, while at the same time ad? ding to the .wealth of Texas by lorming an? other and cheap outlet for her Immense droves of cattle, in the form of fresh Texah beef. Who are Responsible ? A number of the victims of the Westfield disaster have commenced legal proceedings against the Staten Island Ferry Company, and will, doubtless, recover heavy damageB. This may compensate the survivors, in some measure, for the personal injuries they sus? tained ; but no money-verdict can restore to life the unfortunates who, through the crim? inal negligence of the Company, were hur? ried, without-wanaipg, into^ eternity. Nor do we believe that any pecuniary loss which the Company may suffer will serve to pre? vent that carelessness and parsimony which cause, every year, so many so-called acci? dents. We want a striking example-one which will force the officers of public compa? nies, if they value their necks, to put capa? ble men in charge of their machinery and rolling stock', and. to neglect no precaution against disaster which experienpe may sug? gest The officers of the Staten island Ferry Company, no more guilty than scores of presidents and superintendents, who, under similar circumstances, bare gone soot-free, may think themselves harshly treated in be? ing made, as it were, a sacrifice to the just indignation ol Ibo public. But the in.au. ! nity which a lax administration of justice has given to others cannot be held to pnt them beyond the reach of the law, and* for the common good and general safety, we trust that they will be severely, although not vindictively, punished. The ase must be laid at the root of the tree. It is useless to , send an ignorant? engineer to Sing Sing, I when the officers who gave him tbe power, apd the opportunity, to slaughter a bost of j men, women and children, go unwbipped of justice. A Railroad for Bennettrvllle. One or the few counties in Sooth Carolina still unblessed by railroad transit, ?B Marl? boro'; and a Bore point it is to her enterpri? sing citizens. The subject, as may be sup posed, bas engaged the. attention of the good people of Bennettsville not a little. They obtained a charter for a road to Society Hill, there UT connect with the Cberaw aod Darlington Railroad, bot what with General Sherman, the Thirteenth amendment, poor crops and high taxes, reconstruction has not as yet progressed far enough to briog the people of that ancient borough fairly np to railroad heat. There is, however, et ill another reason for 01B delay; arising not from poverty, bnt rather from a wealth of choice. There are three routes proposed to the people of Ben nettBville, by means of which they are prom? ised conthiuDicatibn with" the .'oater world. One of these, to Marion Courthouse, bas bat little to recommend it, as it is Dearly forty miles in length, and would only open the way to North Carolina. The second route bas more advocate?. It is proposed to build a roa"d from Bennetts? ville due' north to Laurinnurg, a station on the Wilmington, Charlotte aod Rutherford Railroad. The distance is only about twenty miles, over a fine country-thjough which a road could be built at comparatively small cose The objection is, again, that Buch a road would force all the trade of Marlboro' to Wilmington; wbile tbe merchants, plant? ers and other citizens of that county have always (with very few exceptions) done their entire business with Charleston houses. It is clear, therefore, that Society Hill is by far the best choice. It is the nearest point to a railroad. It puts tbe people ic comma-j nication with their friends and correspond? ents, and with their market, by the most di? rect route. They already have the charter, aod there is a bridge over the Peedee River, < whieb, we understand, is admirably adapted for a railroad, requiring but a very small outlay for such a modification. All these points are discussed by Major D. B- Townsend, the President of the Cberaw and Darlington Railroad, in a letter ad? dressed to the Marlboro' Times. Major Townsend estimates the cost of grading the line from Bennettsville to Society Hill at $50,000, and tbe rolling stock of the Cberaw and Darlington Railroad might serve both roads. Taking the whole cost at $100,000, of which one-half could be raised apon a first mortgage, a subscription of S50.000 will cause tbe line to be speedily built Bat this subscription must come from the people of Marlboro'; neither the Wilmington, Char? lotte and Rutherford Railroad) cor the Cbe? raw. and Darlington Railroad can aid the enterprise materially. In conclusion, Major Townsend expresses the opinion that a pro? per preliminary step would probably be to call a public meeting at Sen netts ville in Sep? tember or early in October, when represent? atives from the roads on either side might be invited to attend. Major Townsend is a practical railroad man, familiar with tbe waaia and the resources of the County of Marlboro', and bis strong recommendation of tbe Society Hdl route cannot fail to bave great weight with the people. Charleston has no small interest at stake in this, matter. If the merchants of Wil? mington should build the road from Laarin barg to' Bennettsville they would draw the trade of Marlboro' more surely than Wil? mington now controls the trade of Sumter and Marion, which towns have some choice, while Bennettsville would have no choice whatever. We would, therefore, direct the attention of our merchants and railroad men to this little coroer of South Carolina asking for aid aad direction. The trade of that section is very considerable, as is well known to our jobbers, and still better to our factors and commission merchants. Charleston cannot aflord to Bend this trade to Wilmington. The Torr at the North. The New York Times offers some comment on the change which a few years have wrought In one of the popular means of recreation at the North. Ol the many thousands who have witnessed the recent race meetings at Sara? toga, Jerome Park and Monmouth Park, few, it says, have probably given a thought to the remarkable rise of the sport which is now so popular. Little more than ten years ago there was in that part of the country no such thing as a track devoted exclusively to racing. That pastime was, indeed, almost unknown, known only to be despised. Trotting matches were then the passion of the Hour, and a con? test between the famous trotters often drew immense crowds to Union or Fashion Course, To-day all that is changed. The trotting track is deserted, and the fickle crowdB that were wont to encourage the historic struggles of | Patchen and Flora Temple now hang with even greater zest on the flying steps of Long? fellow and Kingfisher. Trotting, indeed, as : spectacle, may be said to have fallen into com? parative disrepute, and fashion and popularity alike have declared In favor of its long-ne? glected rival. The Taxing Power. There ls scarcely anything in this world which may not be subjected to a tax through the exigencies of an Insolvent government. One of the latest financial schemes io Pariais a tax of .five francs upon each and every cat, and of one franc upon each bird kept in a cage. ?Thank Fortune, we have'nt come to cats and canary birds yet l National Fall li and National Bonds, The New York Journal o f Commerce, in the course ol a review of the national finances, reaches the sound conclusion that "the truth "is that % five per cent., and probably a four "and a half percent., bond could easily be ne? gotiated at par if our government had not j "undertaken, by packing the Supreme Court, "to enforce the doctrine that a contract to pay "money may be lawfully settled, if an act of "Congress so order, by the tender of another "contract or a paper promise. That legaliza "tlon of a shana bas damaged American credit "more than all else besides, and there never "will be a permanent recovery and re-eBtab "llsbmentof that credit until this ls revised, or "an express stipulation is incorporated In the "fundamental law of the land lorbidding any "such interpretation of a contract.*' A Sensation for "Society.*" A book ls in preparation in England-the first part of which has been published-where? in will be git*eu a brief account of the earlier emigrants to this country-their social posi? tion at home, and whether that "home" was a castle, a thatched shed, or, as not unfrequent 'ly happened, a penitentiary. Tills plan has been devised by a curious Englishman, who bas set about preparing for publication these brief genealogical sketches. The part already published contains some account of the lof elgners-English-*who came to this country between the years 1600 and 1700. The writer of the book proposes also to consider the con? vict and apprentice element which was ban? ished to these shores, or was sent here under bonds, and of whose descendants many now furnish the material for the most interesting bits of "society news." financial. .??^A^T^E IT.

With? in the last twenty years, however, the whole, fystem cf medical practice bas been changed for the better. In diseases or complaints caused by excessive heat, for instance, the doctors no longer recommend the reduction of the invalid's btrength by prostrating medicines. The vast sue cess which Kas attended the use ol HOSTETTER'S STOMACH BITTERS as a remedy lor debility bas given even the most prejudiced members or the old Behool an insight icto the only trne and ra? tional theory or cure, cambar ides, calomel, and overpowering doses or opium are now among the obsolete nostrums of another age. The lancet, once as much the legitimate weapon of the physi? cian as the sword li ol the soldier, ls seldom drawn from Its case. The principle or life ls no longer drained from thelvelns by the quart, and ter-gruel lor the strengthless invalid has ceased to ba considered an appropriate diet. Vigor la the motto or the rational members or the profession, and they understand at last the value or a sterling vegetable tonic. So also with the people at large; and without consulting medical men at all, they have adopted the Bitters as a household remedy, thereby economizing both cash and health. ? Note the ract that HOSTETTER'S STOMACH BITTERS Is sold In bottles only-never In bulk and that the abortions springing up in various parts or the country, and sometimes offered as substitutes for tbe great national sped Bc, are all utterly worth'ess. augl9-stuth3D*c ED WARD N.
