The DICKENS SCANDAL AT HoME.-The
London Correspondent of the n. Y. Tribune
writes as follows:
Since the ISLANDERS against Charles Dick
ems have crossed the Atlantic, and his man
" disclaimer did not enter i'm the details,
you may allow me to state the facts of the
case Mrs Dickens did not feel comfortable
in the society of Mr.. Dickens literary friends,
nor did Mr.. Dickens muchslike the visiting
acquaintance of his wife; but rs long as
their children were receiving their education
they remained united, in spite of the differ
ence of their tastes and tempers. Toward
the end of the last year, however, they
peaceably separated, without any quarrel,
by mutual consent, the daughters remain
ing with the father, under the superintend-
ence of their aunt, Mrs. Dickens sister,
while the son went with the mother. They
visited one another, and remained on good
terms, and nobody found fault with the ar
rangement But society, so called, began
to fill the town in Spring; people unac-
quainted with the domestic affairs of the
novelist, thought il strange that Dickens
left his cards at some friends with those OF
bis daughters and of his siStcr-in-law, with
out the card of his wife, society, without
inquiring, got into fit of virtue and decen-
cy; the most absurd and most infamous
stories were circulated for three or four DAYS
until Dickens came out in his paper and
sienced them. There is not shadow Of
truth in them, and Dickens character stands
again as high as ever in England, and
hope the same will likewise be the case in
America.

Allah and his prophet, with an apparent Sc
renity and fervor that puts the worshipping
christian to shame. One united chorus Of
prayer ascends from the multitude. In lS4l,
our informant was at Jeddah and made a
trip in an Arab vessel, filed with Pilgrims
going down the Red Sea and across the In
dian Ocean, under the propelling power OF
the brisk southwest monsoon. 1t was then
he witnessed the gathering of the pilgrim
devotees and saw the strength of their faith
as exhibited in their sacrifices and rigid de-
votions
Tothc Biggoted Mahommedan, the chris
tan, of whatever country, is vile dog, and
that epithet is universally applied to him in
Jeddah. On one occasion our informant
was, with his Egyptian servant attacked in
the public square of Jedeah, by an euraged
crowd of Musslcmen, who threatened to kill
the boy for being in the base service of a
christian dog His life was only saved from
the fury of the bigots, by the interpostion
of the English consul whose authority was
then much revcred. In the midst of such
gross superstition. seigctry and ignorance,
it is not surprising that the occurrence rela-
ted by the telegraph has taken place Moth
ing but the fear of the Christian powers, pre-
vents such excuses upon every party Of
christians that comes within their power
1t is nonsense to talk of sending Brit
ish ships of war to such place, single
gun boat would sweep the city of bamboo
houses from the desert in thirty minutes
A severe retribution undoubtedly await;
| the fanatics.
