FoRREsT AND Ills wIFE.-It is at all times
UNIV elcome and disgracious, to persons Of cor
rec, and honorable feelings, to interfere OF in,
terpose in the domestic affairs of private citi-
zens OF private families and we would be the
last man in the world to invade the sanctuary
OF the family fresidc. During the period of
some five or six weeks back, it has been re.
ported in various circles of the town, that a
separation was about TO take place between
/ Mr.. Edwin Forrest, the celebrated tragedian
and his wife, Mrs. Caroline Norton Sinclair
Forrest, the eldest daughter of the celebrated
John Sinclair, who was so many years known,
on both sides of the ocean, as a vocalist and
actor.
Without intending TO Invade the privacy OF
The domestic circle, we must be allowed-since
this most unhappy affair has, in some sort, got
before the public--to refer 10 this unparalleled
and very singular act of reputation. The
popular fame Of one of the partics-the hus-
band and the exalted worth of the other
the lady-will, undoubtedly, give to the affair
unusual interest and this fact must plead in
apology, for referring at all to the domestic
ati'tirs Of individuals.
I Mr.. Edwin Forrest was married, ii we re-
collec, Alright, in the year 1886, in st. Johns
Chapel, in the Moorfolds, London, to Miss
Sinclair MIR. Forrest was, at that time, IL
the 3lst year of lis age the lady was one
and-twcnty. Soon after the consummaton Of
the marriage, Nh. and Mrs. Forrest voyaged
to the United States, and Sc, up an establish
/ ment in Reade street originally owned and
occupied by the celebrated Mr. James II
Hackett There they remained till about 1899
! when Mr. Forrest purchased an estate II
! Twenty second street, Chelsea, to which hc
removed his family, and where he has remain
| ed, with intervening visits to Europe, till thu
! day before yesterday. Until the commence
ment of the last winter, with the exception o
occasional family jars and the lnterposltion o
those professional annoyances that occurred II
II London we learn that nothing tIanspircd tt
mar the happiness of Mr.. and Mrs. EdwlI
Forrest, All ought to have been sunshine
though it is possible that the " storm-king
interposed his visagc.
II While Mr.. Forrest two years ago, was II
/ London, he was assailed, as all the worl'
knows, by one or two Of the London presses
! and criticised in the most offensive and abusive
manner After the attack in question wa
made, he returned to the United States, an,
| the whole character of the man was changed
1 lie a, once became moody, melancholy, and
unhappy.
II In the month Of December, Mr.. foucs
re,urred from professional engagement II
philadc, ,rhia, in most unhappy state pi mind
! and at once demanded separation. lie rs
signed no cause, offered no apology for ih'
posl,ion he assumed and, when the lmmedl

BISHOP DoANE, says the Albany Express, is
Rev. DR.. Gardner, as Rector of Trinity
Church, Boston, about twenty five years ago
In Boston he married the widow of young
James Perkins, lovely and estimablc woman
Mrs. Perkins was entitled TO fortune o
$500 900 if she never married again, OF
500, 900 if she married. She adopted the
later alternative, married Mr. poane, and In
stalled him at the head &C her elegant mansion
in Pearl-street, where she resided with her
four children. The style Of living maintained
by Mr.. DOane, alarmed the Trustees of the
estate Of James Perkins, and they interfered,
and compelled Mr.. Doane to curtall his ex-
penses. lie was living at the rate of $50.
600 year, a large amount of which was de-
rived from the income Of the young Perkins
es.
About this time the Rev Mr.. Hopkins was
invited from Pennsylvania, to aid Mr.. Doane
in his clerical duties. He accepted the invi.
tation, and being man of strong common
sense, and endowed, moreover, with an init
mate knowledge Of the world, which he had
acquired by several years practice at the Bar
he soon discovered Doane's weak Joints, and
boldly exposed them. This led to an oper
rupture between them. The gravest charges
were made against Doane-his wife becam,
the inmate of lunatic Assylum--and the con
nectlon of both Doane and Hopkins with Tin
ity Church, was dissolved. The former SCOT
after was elected Bishop of New Jersey, tn,
latter, Bishop of Vermont.

TWe examined the painting on the walls

correspondent said of the work, in Monday S
paper. 1t is something entirely new, differ.
ing from that Of the walls of the Astor House,
or any other Hotel or private residence In the
country. The design is by the Artist, G. orge
G.. Mason, Esq, of this town, and is executed
in style that reflects the hghes, cncomiums
on his genius. The ellec, is light and airy
and the gay visitanls there this summer, will
almost feel at if they were sitting in some
beautiful garden, for the flowers and vines are
as natural as life, and seem almost within
your reach, as if suspended from the ceiling
There is bird over the east door and parro,
over the south door, which look as if they had
just flown into this pcriumed retreat, to seek
shelter from the scorching rays of the sun.
The painting will be completed about the
first of June and when the furniture is re-
placed, it will certainly be the most beautiful
