Butler's speech at Spencer has caused much comment. The governor said:—"There has been got up in Boston a little embryo rebellion. Colonel Cod man and about twenty-five others of his kidney have got together and chosen committees to go to the wards and see that there are no frauds—I believe twenty-five to a ward—and then Colonel Codman says that the legislature will be called upon if there is any occasion for it. That is to say, if Robinson don't get a majority they will throw out the precincts that they say are fraudulent. Well, we will see about that. (Applause.) That is to say, if the people of the commonwealth elect me, the legislatuve is going to throw out votes enough not to elect me—to prevent my election under the direction of Col. Codman.' It is the beet symptom of the campaign. Hen do not get ready for revolution, when, as they say, they are sure of nearly 20,000 majority, and I am not goiug to get but 25,000 votqa in Boston. (Laughter.) Then, why all this of fraud in advance? Why threaten the people if their candidate chances to be elected, that the legislature will count him out? Well, now, I want it distinctly understood my name is not Tildeu. (Tremendous applause and cheers, lasting for several mingfes and breaking oat again and i~ain.) I say my name is not Tilden; and 11 1 am elected governor of Massachusetts I shall the seat and exercise the power, Codman or no Codman. (Tromendou.s applause.) No, my friends, no littlo rebellion here. 1 have smelt gunpowder, and 1 shall not be frightened by garlic. (Great Laughter.) The people, if theyrelect a governor, will have one, and I advise every man to take that well to heart. (Great applause.) I make no threats; I only insist that the people shall hi}ve their rights. No more 8 to 7 business in .this country, neither in the nation nor iu the state. It never can come again where I have anything'to do with it. (Applause.)

Miss Carrie Astor is suiJ to bo a charming young lady, and tho sentiment which has brought her and Mr. Gould into sweet communion is said to have nothing whatever to do with his wealth. For that matter tho young lady is quite as rich in her own right as her reputed lover can ever hope to be.

Norwalk, Conn., Oct. 29.—The body of a handsome woman,about twenty-five or thirty years of age, was found by some fishermen lying in a small stream at Saugatuck, the village around the railroad statien in the town of Westport. It was fixed in the black mud of the water's edge, rising and falling with the movement of the tide and was in a shocking condition. Blood smeared over the face and hands, and not yet washed away by the water, pointed to a crime. Over the right eye was a deep gash and on the head in two or three different places were large bumps, resulting probably from heavy blows inflicted by some blunt weapon. Near the centre of the forehead was a deep indentation. Here had fallen a blow, H keened, which had resulted In the fracture of the skull. The body was ascertained to be that of Mrs. Julia Godfrey and It was taken in charge by Dr. Frftnk Powers, the medical examiner of Westport, who has begun an examination. The victim is a young woman of Baugatuck pretty ana accomplished. Popular with a large circle of acquaintances, gossip has trifled with her good name, and there have been not infrequent rumors that her husband had reasons for jealousy, and that her home life was not happy. The young wife was full of life and animation. She cared more for social pleasures than for the dull routine of home duty, and it was not unusual that while the husband remained at home at night to care for the family the thoughtless wife was deeply engrossed in the fascinations of some rural ball room. She had many admirers— and "people will talk," was the phrase with which her ungenerous neighbors threw suspicion upon her life as they shrugged their Bhoulders and affected airs to Impress their opinions.

But the coolness of the performers and the quick manner in which the flames were extinguished, soon restored eonfidence, and the progross of the play was not even checked. Some critics who remarked the rather cool manner in which the early scenes of the play were received think that Miss Anderson opens the road to damaging comparisons when she essays a character such as Pauline, in which she has to appear as a highly accomplished and dignified lady. They say tliat it does not follow that the qualities which may render Parthenia or Galatea successful should do the same for Pauline.

He has been particularly nervous since the Vanderbilt ball, when, as you are aware, superhuman effort wfis made to ?C?curo tho attendance of tho Astor family. Vanderbilt's success in his undertaking had its, effect upon Gould. He foresaw the clangor which ivight result to him from a union of tho houses of Astor and Vanderbilt, and he has determined to hurry these nuptials forward with as much haste as is consistent with decency." It has leaked out that the Prinpe of Wales has called Miss fctidcount for her reported utterances concerning him. At the interview which took placo the other night at the Lyceuti Theatre, Kio first question blurted out by his royal highness wis:' " Is it true that you said you wouldn't see me?"

London, Get. 29.—The Marquis of Lansdowne's friends continue to be very Apprehensive for his personal safety in his nfcw position of governor general of Canada, as the Feuiaus have made explicit threats against his life. The marquis has been notoriously imprudent in stirring, up against Mm the hatred of the Irish extremists. When the appointment was made the Marquis and hi* wife arranged a series of farewell vists throughout Ireland, and left-tiMir ridtto the Duke of Abercorn to the last. The Duke and Lqpti Rossmore had arranged to revive Orangelsm in Ireland as an offset against.Nationalism. The politicians succeeded in arraying Protestants agains; Catholics. Besides this, the Dublin castle government have SPORTING NOTES. In the Union and other clubs, as well as in the up town cafes, the probability of the marriage is freely discussed to the exclusion of politics and everything else. There are not a few who throw doubt upon the matter, and pooh poohed the idea of a man of Mr. Astor'i blood permitting his daughter to link herself with the son of an adventurer.

MAPLESON DEEPLY GRIEVED. ▲ week ago it was reported that there was • bitter quarrel in the Godfrey household and the husband is supposed to have told the wife that he could no longer stand her conduct. She must reform or leave his house. Criminations and recrimination made the scene a sad one, and uncorrobo rated rumors say that threats were interchanged. Julia Godfrey, at least, did not spend another night under the roof that had hitherto sheltered, her, since the day when, eight years ago, a bridge of eighteen, she came from Biidgport to make all girls of the Saugatuck neighborhood envious of her prettty face. It is another myBtery and there are surrounding circumstances which promises to make the case as famous as the crimes which ended in the unavenged'deaths of Mary Stannard, Jennie Cramer and Rose Clark.

Njew York, Oct 29.—Mr. Maplcson was sitting in his office at the Academy of Music on Friday with a rose in his button hole and a melancholy gleam in his eyes when a reporter entered. " I am grieved, ray dear boy," said he—"really grieved. I have done everything I could to help them, though it was against my own interests. I lent them my baritone—think of that! I demanded my own people whom they had stolen. Just as I should ask for my watch if that were taken. I thought it unfriendly of them to lock Parry up in their new house, but I have got him now and so feel satisfied. But, as I say, I am deeply grieved." Miss Anderson, who under the circumstances did not particularly relish the meeting, sent back word that she had made it a rule never to see outsiders during a performance, and even upon this occasion sho preferred not to break it. She said, however, that she would be most happy to meet their royal highnesses when she had finished her performance. The princess then said: "We never wait afterthe end of a piece," and the negotiations apparently closed. Can't Say Enough.. have the match broken off.

" I cannot speak too highly of Burdock Blood Bitters ; they have boon a great blessing to me. Cured me of biliousness and dyspepsia from which I had suffered for years." Mr. J. Marsh, Bank of Toronto, Ont "It isn't likely that the old man would permit his son to throw away a fortune on a ball the only purpose of which was to capture the Astors, and then sit idly by while Gould walked off with the prize," said a prominent banker. A prize fight took place at Long Island City, between Mickey Cummings and Jack McCarthy. A false cry of police broke up the fight and Cummings disappeared. 1 ready found reasons for proclaiming six of the most important Parnellite meetings upon the ground that the Orangemen were determined to break them up by resorting to riot, and during nearly the whole of this bittor campaign the marquis was the gue6t of the duke. From the Parnellite point of view Lansdowne's record as an Irish landlord is bad enough; his open rupture with the cabinet on the land question was worse than his record, but the fact he consorted intimately with the leading Tories, Protestants, and Orangemen and accompanied Sir Stafford Northcote in the great revival of Orange enthnsiasm is denounced as the lord's crowning infamy. It is convey to Americans anything like a correct idea of the bitter resentment at present entertained by tbo Nationalists against Lansdowne, Although he took no active part in the recent Orange revivals, he is believed by the leaguers to have been at the bottom of th'e whole business. Many profess to believe that he is a doome I man, and do not hesitate to exprea their fears that his career as governor general of Canada may be cut short by a repetition of the Phoenix park horror. A Word of Caution. The piece went on and the royal party remained, and when it was over Miss Anderson was surprised by her manager, who came with the announcement that their royal highnesses were waiting in the passage to see her. There was of course no further escape, and she immediately went from the stage and met them. The lady's performance had been so pleasing that the princess had apparently forgotten what under ordinary circumstances would have amounted to an affront, and was effusively cordial in her greeting. The prince was inclined to be a little more reserved, and asked the question quoted above point blank. The princess, however, was not to be put away from her amiable intentions, and showered her compliments in a most lavish manner. She said that sho particularly wished to be -informed of any change in the program, as she-was determined to see Misa Anderson In all her characters. "Not just now, and this fact will be something in his favor. When he gets Aster's ear he will poisou it so agaiust Gould that I doubt -whether the marriage will ever take place."

The girl lived in Nicetown, and had been nude:' the treatment of Mrs. Mellhoimey for two weeks past. The yard and collar of tho Ringgold street residence are said to be filled with the bodies of newly born infants, and Stewart is charged with digging the graves for the tiny corpses.

Bobtok, Oct. 29.—A peculiarly interesting divorce case has just boen disposed of by the courts here. On March IS, 1879, Adelaide J. Barker, one of the most beautiful and accomplished young woman in Detroit, was won by Wm. L Wilder, a travelling salesman of this city. They began their married life in a pleasant residence at the Highlands, and for monttig were apparently happy. Iu August of the following year the wife was startlod from her dream of happiness by receiving a letter from ber husband in which he confessed that he had been unfaithful. In company with a lady friend, Hn Wilder called on the woman named by her heartless husband, and the story told by him was unblushingly confirmed. Wilder deserted bis wife, and at the recent hearing the court ordered a decree of divorce, and the unfortunate woman will return to her native state. Late Saturday night Wilder was visited by three men who wei* ooce his friends, and was forced to surrender valuable Jewelry and other personal property that he had taken from his wife.

Interesting Account or Justice Bradley— Ingersoll on Life and Death. A Fair Offer. New York,Oct.29.—"Gath" says: Particular attention is now being paid to Justice Bradley of the supreme court, who is said to have written the recent decision wiping out the tivil rights bill. It is understood that he was a native of New York state, a poor boy, uid he went to New Jersey and entered the law office of the principal justice there, who found in him ability, humor and diligence. He became identified with the great consolidated corporations of the state, which embraced both the railroads and canals toward Philadelphia. At the outbreak of the Rebellion he was sent to Washington to stave on the chartering rival line by the federal.'government, and managed by address and adroitness to accomplish this end, although the old line had to make the sanfesion of laying a double track, etc. In course of time, when the legal-tender decision was in danger, Mr. Bradley was put an the bench, and he has effectively turned up in a very different species of jurisprudence. I found that Washington, without much regard to party, was hostile to the recent decision of the supreme court, and it seemed to me that Col. Ingersoll and Fred Douglass were for the nonce the most popular men at the capital.

Washington, Oct, 27.—There are rumors again of impending cabinet changes. The story is that Folger and Brewster are to retire from the cabinet after the November election; that Gresham is to be transferred to the treasury, and that a New York man (name unknown) is to be postmaster general. The story goes that the project is brought about by the necessity of having some skilled political hand at the rudder in the treasury department during the coming year, this department being "a power in politics." New, it is well understood, has no affection for Folger, and refuses to pull in the yoke with him The story goes on to say that, in order to make Hr. Now's talents as a political manager available, it has been decided to give him a more satisfactory yoke fellow, and with Gresliam and New as the head of the treasury, Indiana will be captured in 1884. The story lacks probability, however, for, while Mr. New may be unfriendly to Folger, it is well understood that ho and Gresham have no affection for each other, their unfriendly relations having been so well understood that Gresham's appointment to a cabinet placeDas commented upon as a direct snub to New. Beside this, the programme is so much unlike President Arthur's general course that the Btory is not generally credited. Humors of Cabinet "My old subscribers are coming hack already," continued he; "two on Tuesday and three yesterday and to-day, and I expect more.

Mr. Bright does not hesitate to declare a strong drsire to visit America, but says that he wishes to make the trip privately and for the sole purpose of studying the American people and their institutions. In the Reform club, months ago, Mr. Bright virtually promised to accompany Mr. Potter on his trip to the United States. It Is understood that he changed his mind then solely because he feared that a portion of the American people might regard him as a propagandist of a disputed economy. It is now believed that Mr. Bright will decline to visit the United States unless assured that he can do so without fuss, especially on the eve of a presidential campaign which may be a contest over his own well known principles. Mr. Bright, however, in a telegram to-day to an inquiring friend in London, said he had intended to visit America, and might do so, but privately. ■sshlU Jo la a ■right. lie Thinks Tilden and Hendricks the Favorite Democratic Team, Cincinnati, Oct. 27.—A News-Journul reporter has had an interview with Judge Holn&n on current political subjects. The judge outlined the probable course of the next congress, which he thought would be in the line of retrenchment. He also thought it would very likely attempt to do away with the internal revenue system. Concerning his candidacy for the presidency he said:— "I may be a little uncertain as to what congress may do, but 1 am quite certain I am not a candidate for the presidency. I have felt greatly compliinonted by the mention of my name in connection with that great office by the New York Sun and other democratic independent papers, but I can assure you X have no presidential beo buzzing in my bonnet. The Ohio election clearly indicates a change of administration in the government. It has given great prominence to Judge Hoadly, and his name is freely mentioned for the presiduncy. But still I think if Tilden will accept the nomination Tilden and Hendricks will be our next candidates, in which case there can be scarcely a shadow of doubt of their election."

When he first came bore and produced a daughter to preside afrihe legation a great deal of surprise was expressed in England, as no ona there seems to know anything of such a member of bis family. But Mr. West explained, according to the gossiping papers, that he had been secretly married when a young man, and this daughter, who had been brought up in France, was the result of that marriage. Two cr three weeks ago a young man appeared at the legation and was introduced rs Mr. Arthur Sackville West, son of her majesty's representative. This week one of the local papers announces,that two younger daughters of Mr. West will soon join him and their sister at the legation here. Further turns are awaited by the gossips with impatience. " . Minister West's Boston, Oct. 27.—The citizens of Sandwich and other towns on Cape Cod have been kept in a state of constant terror and excitement during the last week by the gangs of laborers on the ship canal. Hundreds ot them have 'een quartered in temporary barracks or crowded into farm houses and tho last twa nights they have roamed about the adjacent county committing all sorts of depredations, insulting women and assaulting them. All places of business iu Sandwich are closed before dark and many citizens keep their houses dark during the evening. When it fn re* jol ted on Saturday that a mob had i prayer meeting and the people had ife | terror, a large number of the state dftMtlrft' force were called ior from Boston and eight of the ringleaders were escorted out at town with orders never to return. All the liquor saloons in the vicinity have heen closed and an extra fore#'of officers was detailed to guard the town. Tk» Sun Kxplalus It. /myal imn\ o IB tar ITY § New York, Oct 29,—Referring to Mr. Holman's announcement that he is not a presidential candidate, The Bun editorially says: "The country* needed no ussuranoe on this point. Mr. Holrnan is not Mr. Holman's candidate for president. There is no bee in his bonnet. No personal ambition clouds a mind that is unselfish and patriotic in all its purposes. Mr. Holmau is not a candidate for president in the sense that Gen. Grant was a candidate for a third term, or that Mr. lilaine was a candidate for the republican nomination in 187C and again in 1880, or that Gen. Butler is a candidate for the democratio nomination next year. That is one of the reasons why Mr. Holman is the people's candidate for an office which he does not desire and does not seek, but which he would administer with fidelity, ability, and a singlo view to honest government and thepubiio good. Henry JaniMiC Crldcinni. London, Oct. 'JM. — Henry James thui abuses Mrs. Burnett in the Pali Mall Gazette: " The now jilay would be infantine if infrnti ever expressed themselves in falsetto.

He is posing hims elf as an insane man and arranging for that line of defence. His trial will soon set to take place in Fowlef, and it i8~]Dossible he may ask a change of venue. If a change should be {ranted or anything done to jeopardize the certainty of his lianging in that county the people there would lynch him without quesr iion. His lawyer says: "If he was acquit%d on the plea of insanity he would be run town. A verdict wouldn't make him bullet iroof, and the best men in Benton county would see to it that he got his desserts, rhere ain't enough soldiers Jn America to prevent bis life being taken." Ada Atkinson's Murderer. Washington, Oct. 29.—The Star publishes an interview with U S Dist, At-tm-ney Cock erill,in regard to the investigation now making by that officer into the fraudulent operation! of pension attorneys. The district attorney says that a large number of attornoys have engaged in fraudulent practices, and that he has received hundreds of letters since the publication of his lettor to Secretary Teller, ooritatiling specific complaints of attempted frauds on tho part of firms in the pension business in this city. He estimates that soldiers and their relations have been defrauded of a million dollars through the fraudulent practices of these attorneys, and he expresses an intention of bringing the matter to the attention of the grand jury. The Rainy Seavou In California. Ban Francisco, Oct. 29.—The rainy senson has fairly begun. Heavy showers are falling this week.

Butler's speech at Spencer has caused much comment. The governor said:—"There has been got up in Boston a little embryo rebellion. Colonel Cod man and about twenty-five others of his kidney have got together and chosen committees to go to the wards and see that there are no frauds—I believe twenty-five to a ward—and then Colonel Codman says that the legislature will be called upon if there is any occasion for it. That is to say, if Robinson don't get a majority they will throw out the precincts that they say are fraudulent. Well, we will see about that. (Applause.) That is to say, if the people of the commonwealth elect me, the legislatuve is going to throw out votes enough not to elect me—to prevent my election under the direction of Col. Codman.' It is the beet symptom of the campaign. Hen do not get ready for revolution, when, as they say, they are sure of nearly 20,000 majority, and I am not goiug to get but 25,000 votqa in Boston. (Laughter.) Then, why all this of fraud in advance? Why threaten the people if their candidate chances to be elected, that the legislature will count him out? Well, now, I want it distinctly understood my name is not Tildeu. (Tremendous applause and cheers, lasting for several mingfes and breaking oat again and i~ain.) I say my name is not Tilden; and 11 1 am elected governor of Massachusetts I shall the seat and exercise the power, Codman or no Codman. (Tromendou.s applause.) No, my friends, no littlo rebellion here. 1 have smelt gunpowder, and 1 shall not be frightened by garlic. (Great Laughter.)

Miss Carrie Astor is suiJ to bo a charming young lady, and tho sentiment which has brought her and Mr. Gould into sweet communion is said to have nothing whatever to do with his wealth. For that matter tho young lady is quite as rich in her own right as her reputed lover can ever hope to be.

Norwalk, Conn., Oct. 29.—The body of a handsome woman,about twenty-five or thirty years of age, was found by some fishermen lying in a small stream at Saugatuck, the village around the railroad statien in the town of Westport. It was fixed in the black mud of the water's edge, rising and falling with the movement of the tide and was in a shocking condition. Blood smeared over the face and hands, and not yet washed away by the water, pointed to a crime. Over the right eye was a deep gash and on the head in two or three different places were large bumps, resulting probably from heavy blows inflicted by some blunt weapon. Near the centre of the forehead was a deep indentation. Here had fallen a blow, H keened, which had resulted In the fracture of the skull. The body was ascertained to be that of Mrs. Julia Godfrey and It was taken in charge by Dr. Frftnk Powers, the medical examiner of Westport, who has begun an examination. The victim is a young woman of Baugatuck pretty ana accomplished. Popular with a large circle of acquaintances, gossip has trifled with her good name, and there have been not infrequent rumors that her husband had reasons for jealousy, and that her home life was not happy. The young wife was full of life and animation. She cared more for social pleasures than for the dull routine of home duty, and it was not unusual that while the husband remained at home at night to care for the family the thoughtless wife was deeply engrossed in the fascinations of some rural ball room. She had many admirers— and "people will talk," was the phrase with which her ungenerous neighbors threw suspicion upon her life as they shrugged their Bhoulders and affected airs to Impress their opinions.

They had been out only a few minutes when the judge sent for thein and recharged them, and half an hour after they returned iyith a verdict of manslaughter. In his charge the judge explained the great discretion ho had in sontenciag a prisoner for manslaughter, saying that ho could givo the prisoner anything from the fine of a shilling to impriaoQjnent for life.

But the coolness of the performers and the quick manner in which the flames were extinguished, soon restored eonfidence, and the progross of the play was not even checked. Some critics who remarked the rather cool manner in which the early scenes of the play were received think that Miss Anderson opens the road to damaging comparisons when she essays a character such as Pauline, in which she has to appear as a highly accomplished and dignified lady. They say tliat it does not follow that the qualities which may render Parthenia or Galatea successful should do the same for Pauline.

He has been particularly nervous since the Vanderbilt ball, when, as you are aware, superhuman effort wfis made to ?C?curo tho attendance of tho Astor family. Vanderbilt's success in his undertaking had its, effect upon Gould. He foresaw the clangor which ivight result to him from a union of tho houses of Astor and Vanderbilt, and he has determined to hurry these nuptials forward with as much haste as is consistent with decency." It has leaked out that the Prinpe of Wales has called Miss fctidcount for her reported utterances concerning him. At the interview which took placo the other night at the Lyceuti Theatre, Kio first question blurted out by his royal highness wis:' " Is it true that you said you wouldn't see me?"

MAPLESON DEEPLY GRIEVED. ▲ week ago it was reported that there was • bitter quarrel in the Godfrey household and the husband is supposed to have told the wife that he could no longer stand her conduct. She must reform or leave his house. Criminations and recrimination made the scene a sad one, and uncorrobo rated rumors say that threats were interchanged. Julia Godfrey, at least, did not spend another night under the roof that had hitherto sheltered, her, since the day when, eight years ago, a bridge of eighteen, she came from Biidgport to make all girls of the Saugatuck neighborhood envious of her prettty face. It is another myBtery and there are surrounding circumstances which promises to make the case as famous as the crimes which ended in the unavenged'deaths of Mary Stannard, Jennie Cramer and Rose Clark.

Njew York, Oct 29.—Mr. Maplcson was sitting in his office at the Academy of Music on Friday with a rose in his button hole and a melancholy gleam in his eyes when a reporter entered. " I am grieved, ray dear boy," said he—"really grieved. I have done everything I could to help them, though it was against my own interests. I lent them my baritone—think of that! I demanded my own people whom they had stolen. Just as I should ask for my watch if that were taken. I thought it unfriendly of them to lock Parry up in their new house, but I have got him now and so feel satisfied. But, as I say, I am deeply grieved." Miss Anderson, who under the circumstances did not particularly relish the meeting, sent back word that she had made it a rule never to see outsiders during a performance, and even upon this occasion sho preferred not to break it. She said, however, that she would be most happy to meet their royal highnesses when she had finished her performance.

A prize fight took place at Long Island City, between Mickey Cummings and Jack McCarthy. A false cry of police broke up the fight and Cummings disappeared. 1 ready found reasons for proclaiming six of the most important Parnellite meetings upon the ground that the Orangemen were determined to break them up by resorting to riot, and during nearly the whole of this bittor campaign the marquis was the gue6t of the duke. From the Parnellite point of view Lansdowne's record as an Irish landlord is bad enough; his open rupture with the cabinet on the land question was worse than his record, but the fact he consorted intimately with the leading Tories, Protestants, and Orangemen and accompanied Sir Stafford Northcote in the great revival of Orange enthnsiasm is denounced as the lord's crowning infamy. It is convey to Americans anything like a correct idea of the bitter resentment at present entertained by tbo Nationalists against Lansdowne, Although he took no active part in the recent Orange revivals, he is believed by the leaguers to have been at the bottom of th'e whole business. Many profess to believe that he is a doome I man, and do not hesitate to exprea their fears that his career as governor general of Canada may be cut short by a repetition of the Phoenix park horror. A Word of Caution. The piece went on and the royal party remained, and when it was over Miss Anderson was surprised by her manager, who came with the announcement that their royal highnesses were waiting in the passage to see her. There was of course no further escape, and she immediately went from the stage and met them. The lady's performance had been so pleasing that the princess had apparently forgotten what under ordinary circumstances would have amounted to an affront, and was effusively cordial in her greeting. The prince was inclined to be a little more reserved, and asked the question quoted above point blank. The princess, however, was not to be put away from her amiable intentions, and showered her compliments in a most lavish manner. She said that sho particularly wished to be -informed of any change in the program, as she-was determined to see Misa Anderson In all her characters.

Bobtok, Oct. 29.—A peculiarly interesting divorce case has just boen disposed of by the courts here. On March IS, 1879, Adelaide J. Barker, one of the most beautiful and accomplished young woman in Detroit, was won by Wm. L Wilder, a travelling salesman of this city. They began their married life in a pleasant residence at the Highlands, and for monttig were apparently happy. Iu August of the following year the wife was startlod from her dream of happiness by receiving a letter from ber husband in which he confessed that he had been unfaithful. In company with a lady friend, Hn Wilder called on the woman named by her heartless husband, and the story told by him was unblushingly confirmed. Wilder deserted bis wife, and at the recent hearing the court ordered a decree of divorce, and the unfortunate woman will return to her native state.

Interesting Account or Justice Bradley— Ingersoll on Life and Death. A Fair Offer. New York,Oct.29.—"Gath" says: Particular attention is now being paid to Justice Bradley of the supreme court, who is said to have written the recent decision wiping out the tivil rights bill. It is understood that he was a native of New York state, a poor boy, uid he went to New Jersey and entered the law office of the principal justice there, who found in him ability, humor and diligence. He became identified with the great consolidated corporations of the state, which embraced both the railroads and canals toward Philadelphia. At the outbreak of the Rebellion he was sent to Washington to stave on the chartering rival line by the federal.'government, and managed by address and adroitness to accomplish this end, although the old line had to make the sanfesion of laying a double track, etc. In course of time, when the legal-tender decision was in danger, Mr. Bradley was put an the bench, and he has effectively turned up in a very different species of jurisprudence. I found that Washington, without much regard to party, was hostile to the recent decision of the supreme court, and it seemed to me that Col. Ingersoll and Fred Douglass were for the nonce the most popular men at the capital.

Washington, Oct, 27.—There are rumors again of impending cabinet changes. The story is that Folger and Brewster are to retire from the cabinet after the November election; that Gresham is to be transferred to the treasury, and that a New York man (name unknown) is to be postmaster general. The story goes that the project is brought about by the necessity of having some skilled political hand at the rudder in the treasury department during the coming year, this department being "a power in politics." New, it is well understood, has no affection for Folger, and refuses to pull in the yoke with him The story goes on to say that, in order to make Hr. Now's talents as a political manager available, it has been decided to give him a more satisfactory yoke fellow, and with Gresliam and New as the head of the treasury, Indiana will be captured in 1884. The story lacks probability, however, for, while Mr. New may be unfriendly to Folger, it is well understood that ho and Gresham have no affection for each other, their unfriendly relations having been so well understood that Gresham's appointment to a cabinet placeDas commented upon as a direct snub to New. Beside this, the programme is so much unlike President Arthur's general course that the Btory is not generally credited. Humors of Cabinet "My old subscribers are coming hack already," continued he; "two on Tuesday and three yesterday and to-day, and I expect more. They seem mortified and ashamed of themselves, but I receive them kindly, not referring to the sad past, but accepting their promises of future amendment.

He was burned to death William Ncrrls, of Logansport, cngineei of the Pan Handle train, and John Kellogg, of Micliigan City, head brqjseman of the Michigan Central 8-ain, were killed. John Denegan, engineer of the Michigai. Central, was severely injured and crazed bj his hurts and by fright. He ran four miles to Dyer, Ind., where he arrived completely out of his mind. John Corman, the Michigan Central fireman, was also injured. The passengers were badly shaken up by the shock, but only one was seriously hurt. It is impossible at present to tlx the responsibility for the accident.' Mr. John C. Relsinger, Wiucihisvit.le, Pa., says: "I had heartburn that nothing relieved vntil I tried Browns' Iron Bitters.,, London, Oct 29.—John Bright has become somewhat frightened over the sensation produced throughout England by Lord Coleridge's announcement concerning him and his intended visit to the Uuited States and the ovation which awaited him. Mr. Bright does not hesitate to declare a strong drsire to visit America, but says that he wishes to make the trip privately and for the sole purpose of studying the American people and their institutions. In the Reform club, months ago, Mr. Bright virtually promised to accompany Mr. Potter on his trip to the United States. It Is understood that he changed his mind then solely because he feared that a portion of the American people might regard him as a propagandist of a disputed economy. It is now believed that Mr. Bright will decline to visit the United States unless assured that he can do so without fuss, especially on the eve of a presidential campaign which may be a contest over his own well known principles. Mr. Bright, however, in a telegram to-day to an inquiring friend in London, said he had intended to visit America, and might do so, but privately. ■sshlU Jo la a ■right. lie Thinks Tilden and Hendricks the Favorite Democratic Team, Cincinnati, Oct. 27.—A News-Journul reporter has had an interview with Judge Holn&n on current political subjects. The judge outlined the probable course of the next congress, which he thought would be in the line of retrenchment. He also thought it would very likely attempt to do away with the internal revenue system. Concerning his candidacy for the presidency he said:— "I may be a little uncertain as to what congress may do, but 1 am quite certain I am not a candidate for the presidency. I have felt greatly compliinonted by the mention of my name in connection with that great office by the New York Sun and other democratic independent papers, but I can assure you X have no presidential beo buzzing in my bonnet. The Ohio election clearly indicates a change of administration in the government. It has given great prominence to Judge Hoadly, and his name is freely mentioned for the presiduncy. But still I think if Tilden will accept the nomination Tilden and Hendricks will be our next candidates, in which case there can be scarcely a shadow of doubt of their election."

But Mr. West explained, according to the gossiping papers, that he had been secretly married when a young man, and this daughter, who had been brought up in France, was the result of that marriage. Two cr three weeks ago a young man appeared at the legation and was introduced rs Mr. Arthur Sackville West, son of her majesty's representative.
