I never saw Mr. Marshall but twice, once when he was in the meridian of his plished and magnetic orator, intellectual strength, the accom and again when he had fallen from his high estate to 1 of be the slave temperance, an object of painful | commiseration. A few days after the unsuecessful efforts made in the house in 1837 to pass a resolution ofcensur against John Quincy Adams for his temerity m presenting a pe- tition from slaves, in which Mr. Marshall took a leading part, T happened to be seated with some effort southern members of congress at the dinner table of one of the Wash ngton hotels when Mr. Marshall ame in. It seemed that Mr. Adams had said or done something that day which had irritated these gentlemen, and as Mr. Marshall was taking his seat at the table one of them ex- elaimed: ‘*Well, Marshall, the old devil has been at work again; you must take him in hand.” “Not I.” replied Mr. Marshall, with a decisive shake of the head; “I have been gored once by the d—d old bull, and If there more of this kind of have had enough of him. is to be any work, it must be undertaken by somebody else. The old devil, 2s you call him, is a match for a score of such fellows as you or 1.” Many years after Io saw Mr. Marshall in Washington, he was pointed out to ime in the Lake house, in Chicago, sitting upon a bench with the messenger boy, and talking incoherently—a mental and physical wreck. He had joined temperance societies, and made temperance speeches equal tothe best of Gough's for, like Gough, he spoke from his own experience. His description of the terrible next morning following the nicht’s debauch was as truthful and touching as it was graphic. For months together he seemed to have conquered his enemy, a thirst for intoxicating drink. but its hold had become too strong to be overcome. died T have known many victims of intemperance, but none who have fallen from so dis- tinguished a position, whose ruin was so lamentable and complete.— H. McCulloch in Seribner’s An Exiled Queen. Marie, the exiled Queen of Naples, lives the year round in Paris, in hired apartments on a third floor; for which she pays $1200 a year rent. The house is retired and un- fashionable, and the rooms are furnished with almost meagre sim- Plicity. This recluse-like life is followed by the Queen's own desire, to which her husband readily ac- cedes. She feels that she is an outcast from her former estate, and therefore is determined to live like an outcast. “If,” she once remarked, “T remain at the bottom of the lad- der, I shall at least have no fear of falling further. If I cherish no hopes I shall suffer no disappoint ments. If I set my heart on nothing T shall iot be bereaved. I went to Naples a Queen, and in a year I left it an exile. My rooms in the palace there were scarcely put in order for me when I was driven out by the revolution. Then we went to Rome. My husband owned a palace there, and we made it our home.

About half a mile east of here they met a tramp umbrella Goodie mender, whose name is around Cameron several days. He engaged in conversation with them, and learning that Charles, aged 16 years. had $9 in cash, attacked him with a large knife, evidently with | the intent to kill him and get the money. Aultman, the young- est of the brothers. and only 14 years of age, drew a revolver to defend his brother from Walters’ ravage attack, d six shots.

He has a sister in St. Joe, and this is about all that can be learned regard to him.

Chicago, Ill., Sept. 4—A morning paper says: “The Rev. James G. Green, nearly 80 years of age and former rector of St. Mathews reform- ed Episcopalian church on Larrabee street, was ejected from the Grand Pacific hotel last night, where he oceupied a room with his innocent bride, on the charge of bigamy pre- ferred against him by a legal wife who left him a short time ago in fear of her life. For over a half century a minister of the gospel, if the best evidence is true, he has been not only addicted to minor vices, but has been a forger, a state's prison con- viet, three times divorced from wives who have died of insanity and brok- en hearts, and n: narried six women.” Etectrie Biers Walters, and who has been hanging | | this morning George and St. Francis County, Ark.. | sion to enter. ! hou SHOT SEVEN WHITE the Scene of a Dastardly Out- rage.

The house acted very promptly yesterday upon a bill introduced by representative Scott of Pennsylvania making more stringent provisions for the exclusion of chinese immigra- tion to this country. The bill covers certain defects in the act which sup- plements certain treaty stipula- tions relating to the Chinese, approv- ed in 1883, and contemplated the correction of abuses which have re- sulted from the issuance of certifi- cates of identity. The bill provides that the Chinese laborer claiming admittance to this country by vir- tue of the possession of such papers shall hereafter be refused permis- This measure of pro- tection has been rendered necessary by the presistent violation of the treaty stipulations between America and China by immigrants from the latter country, and the prompt man- ner in which it went through the e shows that the extent of the ppreciated.
