THE ST. LOUIS BREAcH-oF-PRoMIsE CAsE.-The
evidences of love and engagement of marriage in
this case are unusually full and satisfactory, and
to leave doubt of the fact. The fine old
gentleman had given his intended an expensive
piano, bought her books on botany, and encour-
aged her to become familiar with his favorite
science; supplied her with gloves by the box and
had freely declared both to herself and her married
sister, with whom she resided, his intentions of
marriage-had, in fact, begun to purchase the we'd
ding dresses and trnkets for the day that was soon
to give him housekeeper and botanical associate
After a while the venerable lover became Jealous
He could not bear to Efe accept any attentions
from younger men, and as she sometimes did, he
grew cold, neglected her altogether, sent for the
piano and demanded the return of his other pres
ents. 1t is quite supposable that Mr. Shaw had
some grounds for jealousy, and that Efie would
really have preferred some younger man, the two
millions being placed out of the question. But
our sympathy with the old gentleman is very much
abated when we find him attempting to escape the
payment of the trifng bill of damages by hunt
ing up old stories against her character, and at
tempting to rob the woman of her only wealth
her reputation. But this effort the former trial
did not succeed; nothing proved; and it was
a feeling of moral indignation at the attempt that
led the first jury to place the damages at the high
est figure. The same effort is being repeated at
the present trial. but it is the general expectation
that the first verdict will be re-afrmed and Miss
Carstang will get her Sl00, ,000 which will give her
a comfortable fortune, after paying her lawyer

NAUTICAL SoHooLs.-In debate in the House of
Lords on the 9th ult.:
The Duke of Somerset explained the steps which
had been taken by the Admiralty to establish a
supply of boys for the Navy by means of training
ships stationed at the naval and commercial ports,
and proceeded to point out what improvements
were contemplated on the present system, in order
to make the education given to lads for the Navy
efficient for rendering them good and able sailors.
one OF the notifications of the present plan was to

then to learn the duties of sailor in briggs attach
ed to the establishment. The Admiralty was only
waiting for the passage of the estimates to carry
this scheme into effect"
The Duke thought it desirable to have training
ships stationed at Portsmouth and Plymouth for
boys, with small vessels attached, so that during

men.
