TIE COURSE OF TRUE LovE.-About thirty years
ago, says the Louisville Journal when Sir Edward
Lytton Bulwer was bridegroom and the present
Lady Bulwer his bride, that exquisite poetess, 81
4. L." (Letitia Z. Landon) wrote and published an
account of their characters aud personal appear
ance They were both quite young and each of
them In delicate health. The bridegroom was de-
scribed as pale and fascinating and the bride was
painted as fragile aud fary-like creature of eur
passing loneliness. The tender tints of her cheek
were said to be like roseleaves couched on ivory y
The description was read everywhere, aud the pub
lie admiration and the public sympathy were
deeply excited for the young pair, Who'll it was
thought, must soon pass away from world too
and rude for such gentle and lovely natures
as theirs. All, little dreamed the reader then,
that, after very few years. the gentle bridegroom
would strike the tender bride, that she would seek
redress by publishing series of coarse, fierce and
vituperative novels and pamphlets against him
and that after q few more years, she, grown to be
sturdy, red faced and muscular woman, would
pursue him in his canvass for parliament, take
her stand upon the hustings in reply to his public
speeches. call upon him to confront him, shout
coward at him in his precpitate fight from
her presence, and announce her determination to
persecute him till he should cry for mercy, and
humbly make her amends for all his viIlainies.

Fun OF THE OLDEs TME.-A Virginia correspon.
dent of Harpers Drawer furnishes it the follow
ing, which is interesting from its locality, If not
for its wit:
"In the early history of the Richmond Theatre
under The management OF the late Charles GiIfert'
North Carolina money formed part CT our currency
and ranged in our city at discount OF from ten to
fifteen per cent.
'Gilfert was frequently hard pressed to meet the
usual circums ance for him to resort to the expedi
eDt OF borrowing North Carolina money of a noted
broker, to be returned In Virginia money. With
this deprecated currency he paid the salaries oil
and injury.
'GilIert had in early life cultivated a knowledge
of music, and was not only skillul leader but a
composer Of merit he pridsd himself in his orche.-
guished ability, and made music prominent feature
of the establishment. His flute-player a vener-
abe-looking old gentleman, by tie name of Stone :
bis leader Nickoia stone was eccentric and irrita
BILE, and justly felt the injustice of Gferts finau-
clering, and had made more than one complaint to
the treasurer of the imposition
"0n one occasion Giifert had bestowed considera-
BILE time and labor in preparing music for some
piece about to be produced in the success Of which
he felt deep interest, and which prompted him To
give his personal attention to its rehearsal In the
overture WAS introduced a beautiful flute solo,
which Stone failed TO take in time. Gifcrt direct
result-f1ute not heard. After examining the fy,e
part with the score and finding it correct Gilfert
directed the orchestra to try 1t again but the flute
failed to come in seizng the part, and strikiug it
passion, said Mr. stonel don't you these p0tess'
Stone, equally excited, replied, Yes, Sirp well
SIR said Gilfrf, can't ytu play themY No
Sir, said Stone L can't play North Carolina NOES
Gfert and his green spectacles made quick exit off
the stage.'

SALARIES AED WEALTH OF ACToRs.-A New York
naper has been publishing some statistics on the
ID hject of the pay of actors and actresses which
assesses much interest, and especially to some OF
the young amateurs who form deIusive ideas Of
the splendid incomes their talent will secure for
them when they come regularly before the pub
lie. From this 1t appears that Forrest receives
5000 night, or half the house; but then, this is
not regular salary, and probably no other man
on either side of the Atlantic could ask or get a
similar sum. George Jordan receives the largest
gular salary of any man . ! the stasein the o. S.
He gets $l25 per week (good looks will tell y
Henry Placide, Eddy, Charles Mathews, for self
and wife, and Conway, when playing on salary,
receive 800 per week. Jefferson has been re
ceiving $75, but intends demanding more next
season. c. Wheatleigh, Burnett, Il. A. Perry,

DEATH OF Coolies AT SEA-On the last voyage of
the ship Competitor from China to Cuba, with
coolies, III out of 3s3 died before reaching st. He
lena. letter says it is represented by those on
board, that the sufferings of the poor creatures
were heart rending to Witness and what added ma.
terialiy to the horror of the scene, was the fact
that the unfortunate coolies were unable to make
known their wants. There was no physician on
the ship, aud what medicines were administered
seemed to have no effect upon the sick. They died
uncared for aud unknown. Most of the mortality
occurred before the vessel reached st. Helena,
where she touched for water, &C. After she left
that port. only six or seven deaths took place..
The first officer of the ship remarked that he
would not go on such voyage again for 81 Loco

TROUBLE BETWEEN AMERICAN MAcKERrL scuooN

TROUBLE BETWEEN AMERICAN MAcKEREL ScHooN
LRs AND CANADIAN FIsHERMEN.-A letter to the
Courier du Canada, written from Percy, on the
11th instant, complains that ffty-one American
schooners, employed in mackerel fishing, had an.
cbored on the 9th instant, in Percy Bay, within
two cable lengths of the Shore among the nets of
the Canadian fishermen, causing them infinite
damage Not content with this, their crews parad.
ed the streets of the village in drunken aud dis
orderly condition, attacking and beating in most
cruel manner the inoaensive fishermen. The
Courier is of opinion that an official statement of
these facts should at be laid before his Excel
lency, and that the imperial executive should i'm
mediately apply to the American government for
redress.
