“which time it was set down for s peremptory hearing. This gives Foster another respite, and meantime the case is gradually passing ‘out of public ‘mémory—the very point, doubt- Jess, which Foster's counsel are striving to ac- gomplish. Commerce Between Cannda and the United States, The commercial relations between this country and the Dominion have been Bitherto carried on upon an unsettled basis, giving satisfaction to neither side. The Canadians have argued that the consular and import charges in the United States were ex- orbitant, and prevented the development of the. best interests of the two nations. Ameri- can business men, on the other hand, have maintained that an illicit trade has been forced jacros# the frontiers, and that while they have been endeavoring to cultivate friendly re- Jations, and trade with the Dominion on (he same basis as the country compels in every other instance goods are brought in ‘without paying duty, and hence the articles on which all the fees had been paid had to be Aisposed of at a proportionate loss. Yester- ay the Canadian Board of Trade at Ottawa discussed the matter in the presence of vari- ous delegates from the United States. The same. complaints were made, and the same explanations given, as in numerous other ‘fostances; but the only hope that remains of a Settlement, such as will be acceptable to both sides, derives its inspiration from the resolve jof the delegates to meet in Washington and ‘endeavor to obtain from the present Congress’ & relief from import restrictions to such an extent as will permit of the development of the powerful mercantile interests befitting two ‘neighboring and friendly nations. TH Croton WaTeR.—Under the last muni- cipal régime sundry arrangements were made to add to the supply of water in Croton Luke by the purchase of property bordering on other ‘water spaces, Whether or not these bargains ‘were consummated is no matter of concérn to the people of New York just at this time.

The journey by rail was terminatea at Golden City, where tho visitors were cordially received and liberally dined and wined at the Golden Hotel. Some two hours having been thus spent in the now prosperous city, the party were conveyed tn carriages up the canyon for a@ distance of eight or ten miles. Extensive mines at this point were in- spected, afew substantial refreshments partaken, and a joily good time had generally, FOR “THEY WERE ALL JOLLY GOOD FELLOWS." The atmosphere was a trifle arctic in its nature, but none of the party would admit the fact. On the contrary, shey all indulged in loud praises of the weather, and, with frostbitten ears and uncomfort- able feet, imsisted that the day was one of the most charming and inviting of we season, During tne brief stay in the immediate neighborhood of the mines General Sheridan and staf contributed to the ainusement of the party witn a few oid army songs, and when the chorus came the Duke, and even the elder Russian tourists accompanying him could not resist the temptation to join in the chorus.

ALEXIS ADMISING THE GLORIES THEREOF. Several stops were made during the journey, to allow the Duke to gaze in admiration on the en- chanting scenes which surrounded him, and it was with reluctance that he consented to leave in sea- son to pursue the return trip by daylight. Several of the peaks which crown the loity cliffs were prop- erly christened, and will hereafter be known ag “Peak Alexis” and ‘Sheridan's Peak.’’ ‘The wonderful fertility of the gold, silver and coal mines was taitufully described to the observ. ing Russian tourist, and if he believes one-halr that the enthusiastic and hospitable Colorada gentlemen told him he wil! g> home with the idea that tnis Territory is really that American land of milk and honey of which he read about in his younger days.

About three years ago a young lady of fifteen Years of age, named Miss Isabella Titus, having In her face all the indications of a kind, loving and af- fectionate disposition, and being quite remarkable for her personal beauty and waving hutr, entored on her course of studies under the care and super- vision of the Ladies of the Sacred Heart. ‘Miss Titus was born in Detroit, of a Protestant family, but her parents, who were Wealthy and moved in good soolety, deemed it best to place her at the Sacred Heart, in order ihat she might become accomplished m- all the elegant branches, Miss Titus won golden opinions by her docility, good humor and affectionate bearing to- ward her playmates and school-fellows, and she was much beloved.by the ladies conducting the course of instruction in the convent, The fair young pupil progressed rapidly in her studies, and became a good piantst as well as a ready scholar in all other branches of her educa- tion, As Miss Titus approached the critical period 6f womanhood, her sixteenth year, she was afflicted with nervous headaches and grievous pains all over her body, which at times caused her great anguisn, and fits of despondency would ensue and sadness ‘Would rest on her features for days, About a year ago the father of Miss Titus dted, leaving his family well off in this world’s goods, aud Mrs. J, H. Titus removed to the pretty little village of Pepperel, in the State of Massachusetts, about thirty miles distant from Boston, where a son-in-law of hers, the Rev. Wm. F. Walton, resided. Mrs. Titus had two other daughters—one married to Mr. Gal- loway, a retired tron merchant, and the othe?, a Mra, Samuel P. Lewis, whose home ig in Oil City, Pennsylvania. Mrs. Lewis had been spending the winter momths in Richmond, Va, with friends, and Mrs. Gertrude Galloway was boarding in the fashionable boarding house of | Mrs. Adams, 38 West Twenty-fourth street, in a fine brown stone nouse situated on the south side: of the street, near Sixth avenue. Mrs. Galloway occupied finely furnished apartments, and somedays ago Mrs. Lewis was iaovited to come and pay Mrs. Galloway a visit, which the for- mer lady did. About a month ago Miss Isabella,. Titus, who had left the convent at the time of her father’s death, and who Was now grown to bo a fully developed and beauti- ful girl ot eighteen years, was tovited also to visit her sister, Mra.

During the last three or four weeks it was noticed by her sisters, Mra, Lewis and Mrs. Galloway, aud by her half brother, Mr, Theodore M. Davis, the lately appointed receiver for the Ocean Bank, that Miss Isabella was subject to apoplectic ruses of blood to the head, on wiich occasions her face would flush violently, and afterwards these symptoms would be succeeded by violent Paina in the side and grievous headaches. Mi Isabella would act very strangely before and after these fits, amd the beauti(ul girl would sit down and talk to herself and her relations in @ despond- ent and gad manner.

Occasionally she practised with the revolver and fired shots, but her sisters were not aware that she was suppiled «vith cartridges. Once in every four or five weeks Miss Isabella became il and was subject to fits of melancholy. She never made any threats against her own life or the lives of others while suffering pain, but her expressions were very strange and sometimes without point, On Thursday moraing Mrs. Gailoway said to her youngest sister, 1 wish to go shopping on Broadway.
