general rush was made to get glimpse of her, and for twenty nlinute the drever could not get clear of the multitude. At last, by the persuasive entreaties of D. D. Howard, Esq, the people were induced to fall back and the carriage was allowed to proceed. During the ride Mademois- elle Jenny visited Castle Garden, the Tabernacle, Astor Place Opera House and the Jenny Lind Hall, now in process of erection. With all these she seemed delighted, but particularly with the hall named after her. This visit was made by Mr. Barnum and his party with view of selecting suitable place to give two concerts next week; but as yet no hall has been engaged. Md'lle. Jenny has desired MT. Barnum to fix the price of tickets at reasonable sum, so that the poorer classes will be enabled to listen to her performances. The public are on the qui vive to learn what the price of admission will be but they will probably be kept in suspense for several days.

and fell over the steps on her face, a corpse. MT. Secord was sent for, and when he came they went to look for Mrs. Secord, who was found in the orchard with her hands over her throat, the blood streaming therefrom, and the razor in her hands. Her throat was horribly mangled, and the winh-pi severed. It had the appearance of having been cut in two attempts. The wounds having been properly examined, sewed up and dressed, she was taken to her bedroom, and in very short time, while the att tendant's attention was otherwise en- gagged, she took pen6nife from her pock- ct, and tried ::o reopen the wounds, but was prevented in time. She expressed no desire to live. It is the opinion of the Doctor that her wounds are mortal, though she may live few days. The Coroner's jury rendered verdict, that " the deceased, Mary Ann Smith, scas sctyully murdered by Hannoh Secord." Mir. Secord married his wife some seven years ago. They have no children Mrs. s. was widow, Mrs. Bush, at the time of this marriage. Her maiden name is Berry. In the opinion of the writer, Mrs. Secord's mind was deranged for some time. MT. Secord is member and officer of the Reformed Dutch Church. the Rev. F. M. Kess, pastor man of the purest character and virtue, aged about fifty>six, and as in affiuent circum- stances. His wife is also member oi the same church, aged about forty>two.

IA Surf Scene.

A correspondent of the Springfield Re- publican, at Coney Island, gives the fol- lowing killing incident of the surf:
 During my passage down the bay had caught several glances of a familiar face. I knew had seen it before, but where The lady as evidently had been subject to a jog of memory. The ex> change of a few glaGces satisfied us both that we only wanted proper opportuni- ty, or disposition to speak. Ten long years before we had parted ia a huf, and considering myself at the time the ag- grieved party, l was not particularly anx. ious to renew the acquaintance-the tilt. As soon as the boat touched the pier. was on it, and off for bath. The lady for the time was forgotten, and issuing from the bath house in my rough bathing dress, I plunged into the breakers. l had been frolicking some time, laying my hand on the "ocean's mane," and the ocean laying his hand on mine. when ] saw two or three other bathers edging up towards me between the swells. There was lady evidently, in advance. Her company apparently forgot her, at last, and still she approached me. I went far. ther out: She followed me and l found she was determined to speak to me. l knew wEo she was of course. A huge wave came in, and knocked the woman down, but sticking her head out of the water, she gave scream, and that bro't me. Twas on the spot as soon as could get there, and grasping her arm raised her to her feet.
 "Oh!' said the lady, "wha-wha- wha-what meeting, after such a part. ing ]"
 "Well, yes," said I bluntly.
 She now undertook to look the grate' full and the interesting, when huge wave struck her as she looked up to me witl parted lips, and crammed her dear moutf with salt water. She dropped again, and again pulled her on, and she was either very weak or she thought l was certainly very strong. py since we parted?"
 She answered. me with sigh, and then looking up to me put the same question. Says l, ho hum-ho hum Mary don't talk about it." ...- :.
 "Ihave learned some things since then, " said she. "Yes," said I, "I believe you have you married learned man think"
 "Me married !'
 "What did you jilt Q good looking man for, ten years ago, but to marry a certain learned man ?" asked l fercely.
 Il beg you will not allude to the fool ishness of school girl" replied the la dy, and then changing the subject, she wanted to know how she should have felt, if, in saving her from a watery grave, I had drowned myself. I told her it would probably have made less difference with her and me than with my wife and child. She gave me but one look, and rose to her feet, and put.
 "I saw her but moment,
 But methink's see her now"
 as she walked off with her bathing>dres sticking to her, and her little bare fee fairly indenting the sand with the spite fulness of her step.

Don't Fret.

It is wnamiabls. A fretting man or woman is one of the most unlovely obs, iects ia the world. A wasp Is Q com fortable housemate in conparison-it, only stings when disturbed. But an habitual fretter buzses, if he don't sting, with or without provocation. 1t is bet ter to dwell in the corner of the house. top, than with brawling woman and.in a wide house"
 It is Wselesa It sets no broken bones- stops no leaks, gathers no split milk, ce- ments no smashed pitchers, cures no spoiled hay, and changes no east winds. It affects nobody but the fretter himself. Children or servants cease to respect the authority or obey the commands of a. complaining, worrisome. exacting parent or master. They know that "bsrking dogs never bite, and fretters don't strikes So. they go on in;their own way. when one calm word of rebuke or command, from one habitually anniable and quiet, settles the question. We were once at n panoramic exhibition, when more than g. hundred rude boys made such incessant noise as to disturb the whole company. A gentleman present made frequent at- tempts to hush them, in vain. Another. gentleman uttered the monOsyllable boys! in tone of expostulation and authority -the work was done. We have seen a maxim worthy to be inserted in letters of gold on every dwelling: Never fret about things you cas Aelp and never about things you cGn't help" That cov- CTS the whole ground: It is worth re- membering. a .g
 It is wicked to fret. The little things that try the patience are just as much ordered of Providence, and are as cer- tainly among the "aN M;ngs" that. "work together for good" as tho great things. And it is just as wrong to mnr- mur when pricked with pin, ol stun g by musquito, as when struck with . sabre, or poisoned by an adder. Yet men take license to scold about the weather, just as if God did not order the seasons and "hold the winds in his fists. 'A They chafe and fume under petty trials, leaving their philosophy and piety for overwhelming calamities. Every days. discipline in common life is forming the character for those extraordinary emer- gencies which all men meet. Why should living man complain " at all ? Why not sing, all along ones pathwa ' In each event of life how clear | Thy ruling hand see,
 Each blessing to my soul most dears
 Because conferred by thee.
 In every joy that crowns my days,
 In every pain bear,
 My heart shall find delight in praises
 Or seek relief in prayer"
