STAND FROM UEpER.--A correspondent OF
the Boston Journal, writing from New York.
tells the following:
"An incident traaspired here last week that
has made some talk among tho parties who
have had knowledge Of the matter A lady
from the State of Maine came to the city last
week on her way to California. She has as
arms two revolvers and bowie knife The
conductor purchased her ticket in the Cali
fornia steamer and she LEFT in the vessel at
noon. Her story is this a short time since
her husband obtained possession Of all her
property, converted ell he could into gold, and
then deserted his family, took q ship and
started for the land of gold, around Care
Horn.
But this is not the worst; he took with him
a female, not his wife. Injured and maddened,
the wife has started after her recent lord not
from love, bu: from hate; not 70 recover pos.
session of her abseonding husband, but 10 at-
minister deserved chastisement; not TO take
him back, but To shoot him aud his com panion.
Wind, weather and steam permitting, the lady
will reach California some time in advance Of
her absconding mate. He will no doubt be
rather surprised 10 meet her ladyship on the
California landing, and, unless eea-sickness
shake the wrath out Of her, the meeting will
not be one Of the most conjugal that can be
imagined"

announces, In bold clear voice. - You had
better 60 home, you insOlent puppy, and mind
your own business"
1t sometimes happens, though this Is very
rarely the case, that some worthy young gen
tleman Of a honest disposition Is taken With
her beauty, and accosting her with the dis
lance and reserve which softens the impro-
priety IF street introduction, an acquain-
tance ensues; and We have known happy
matches grow out Of these chance encounters.
We cannot regard them a. strictly csncuical; :;
although If angels will come In this lguise.
may We not give them welcome,
Encompassed with all this armor Of proof,
we can imagine another catastrophe. Let Us
consider Tor moment the other side Ct tho
picture.
Suppose on some dreary, weary night the
downtown worker for the shops, in making
her way home on foot, without even the small
sixpence for the omnibus trade not having
prospered with her. or her weeks little earn
Jugs not forthcoming; in faded frock, with
bonnet three fashions old, and altogether ap
object of pity to look upon. She hears a voice
;rilling chserily, and casting her eye up eepies
young lady" at the height Of fashion "a
little beyond it) in her dress. jewels on her
hand, chain about her neck, the gase Of all
the people as she makes her way along. What
wonder il for s~momont the poor plodding
seamstress falters in her course IT, now and
then, ono drops over the abyss Her native
love Of virtue was strong Ii was enforced by
good example and proper habits-but when
the pressure Of necessity passes O certain
limit, there are some in all societies who will
yield. Let US thsn not judge hsrshly es our
teliow-creatures. Ii Is often the chance turn
ing Of street corner which determines ca-
rcer Of virtue OF vice. We arc better in garb
than our neighbors, but He who searches be-
meath all disgrises, will discern under the
plain attire of the poor girl who plods her way
along the city street at nightfsll. q noble
spirit, just, honorable. and struggling gal
Iantly against manifold enemies and tompta-
tiops
