A Wife Cnred Of jealousy.

Toronto, in Canada has its domestic
troubles as well as other places of more
business character. A late occurrence
in that city has produced the utmost ex-
citement, and affords the newspapers ma
terial for repeated items. 1t is the chron-
| icle of how wife was cured of jealousy
We find the story in the correspondence
of the New York Express, and it runs
| thus
A Mr.. and Mrs. G.. arrived in Toronto
from England some three years ago, and
opened fashionable gnd extensive dry
good and millinery establishment on the
principal street. They were literally
patronized, aud did an excellent business.
But now Mrs. G. was unhappy in her
prosperity, she was jealous of Mr.. q.
She thought she had reason for complaint
against him. So strong had this impress
sion become that she made frequent
changes, not only in the female servants
of the house, but also in the attendance
in her millinery establishment, i'll which
department she believed her husband
was entirely too intimate for faithful
principals. Unable to detect him in any
case Of transgression, yet driven almost
to distraction by the belief that she was
a deeply injured woman and wife, she
at length determined upon plan for
the discovery and exposure Of her lords
perfdy, Having for sometime felt sat
is6ad that Mr.. C. was in the habit of
visiting secretly the chamber Of fc
male servant, after that young lady had
retired to her couch, she resolved to
ascertain the fact by occular demonstra-
ton Upon a particular evening, she
told the girl to go out for the night, and
the permission having been gladly ac-
cepted by the girl, Mrs. c. at a late hour,
when no one was in the house was up but
her husband, quietly slipped up to the
girls room and took her place in bed,
She had bean there but few moments,
when the door of the room was cautiously
opened and Mrs C. saw the faithiess mas
culine, in half undress approach her bad.
She had the gentlemen now beyond all
doubt or cavil But it was not enough
that she had evidence of his villainy, the
whole house and ncighborhood must he
informed of it, and must be called in to
witness his detection in guilt.
With that view she seized the gentle
man around the neck in such manncr
that 1t was impossible for him to extricate
himself, and then she shrieked as if all
the evil spirits of Pandemonium posses
sed her The end is thus described by
the correspondent of the Express:
The house was Immediately aroused,
clerks, all came in wondering
haste to the room from whence such ter
rife cries proceeded, expecting some dia.
bolical murder was being committed. -
A light soon revealed to the frantic Mrs.
G., who still clung 10 her victim, the
form of her devoted husband, struggling
to come to her assistance, in the rear of
the crowd of clerks and miliner girls.
At the same moment also, to the utter
and dismay of Mrs. c., she
discovered that her arms were encircliug
the form Of a great, masculine clerk em-
ployed in the establishment The scene
can, as the phrase is, be better imagined
than described and so leave it. 1t is
presumed that Mrs. C.'s jealousy has by
this time suffered some abatement Her
and that of her husband is
presumed to be very great, as in conse-
quence Of this affair, they speedily sold
off what goods they could, and fed to
England, leaving their creditors consid-
erably in the lurch.
