The Last Of the European Capitalists
More of Their Costly Banquet

(New York Correspondence Chicago Times.)
Sir Morton Petoe and his party left yes.
terday for England on the Scotia, very
much pleased with their visit 10 the hospi-
table shores of America. Sir Morton gave
a magnificent farewell dinner 10 his friends
al Delmorico's, at which about 400 guests
sat down. You have doubtless already re-
ceived an account of this banquet. That
account did not, doubtless, inform you that
Delmonico's bill for the dinner was Just
$40, 600 about 800 per head. There
was wine OH the table which cost $50 per
bottle. The flowers which decorated the
table cost $'3 600, and We're magnificent in
the extreme. The principal boquet was
not less than three feet in diameter and six
feet in height. The bill of fare was on q
clear white satin, as thick and stiff as the
paper you print the Times on. The letters
were in green and gold. The bill was
bound in morocco, with handsome clasps and
on each the name of the invited guest fer
whom it was intended. Nothing could have
been richer or more elegant than this sup,
per, and with Sir Morton Petoe in the chair,
| it passed off with unusual quiet and ele-
gance. $40, 600 is big price for anybody
to pay for single spree, but as this money
railroad king has manufactures in England
which give employment TO not less than
100000 laborers and yield him an income
Of inconceivable size, suppose he can
stand it.
1t is said that his visit is likely to prove
Of some real substantial benefit, as he has
undertaken 10 build road TO rival the New
York and Erie route, which shor,ens the
distance between here and The West by one
hundred and forty miles, which is con
sideration.

THE WIFE,

Woman's love, like The rose blossoinlng
in the arid desert, spreads its rays over the
barren plain Of the human heart and
while all around it is black and desolnte, il
rises more strengthened from the absence
Of every other charm. In no situation
does the love of woman appear more beau
,iful than that of wife parents, brethren,
and friends have claims upon the affections,
but the love of wife is Of distinct and
different nature. A daughter may yield
her life TO the preservation of parent, and
sister may devote herself to a suffering
brother but the feelings which induce her
to this conduct are not such as those which
lead wife to follow the husband of her
choice through every pain and peril that
can beall him to watch over him in dan
ger, 10 cheer him in adversely, and ever re-
main unalterable at his side in the depths of
ignominy and shane. 1t is an heroic devo.
tion which woman displays in her udher-
ence to the fortunes Of hapless husband
When we behold her in her domestic scenes
a mere passive creature, an intellectual Joy,
Frightening the family circle with her en-.
dearments, and loved for the extreme Joy
which that presence and those endearments
are calculated to impart, we can scarcely
credI, that the fragile being, who seems 10
hold her existence by a thread, is capable
Of supporting the extreme Of human suffer
ing nay, when the heart Of man sink
beneath the weight Of ogony, that she should
maintain her pristine powers Of delight, and
by words of comfort and patience, lead the
distracted murmurer TO peace and resigna.

g Tis sweet TO live," is the almost invol-
untary language of the human heart, From
the infant sporting on its mothers knee,
down TO the old, grny-headed man, life has
its charms.
The Joyous hearted child, the aspiring
youth, the man OF business, the seekers after
honor, wealth, or pleasure, all feel that life
is sweet, as it affords opportunities TO each
TO pursue his favOrte phantom ; the attain.
ment of which is his idea of happiness.
TO those who live in the affections and
sympathies Of their fellow men, loving and
beloved, life is sweet Indeed. But this can
best be uttered by those who appreciate
life in lis true character, as the season
which God has given in which 10 prepare
to die and they are permitted 10 perform
the duties Of life, TO ease the pain and soothe
the sorrows of their fellow travellers, to
live in communion with God, and for the
promotion Of His glory,-they may well
exclaim, 1t is sweet 10 live,' since to live
is Christ
at is sweet TO die" is not the willing
language Of the human heart.
There is n death dread, a mystery
from which they would gladly turn away
Sometimes, when worn with suffering and
racked with pain, death is welcomed as the
end of earthly sorrow. 1t is only the Ian.
guage of those whose faith can triumph o'eI
the grave, and who can welcome death a,

Incident.

Judge p. w. Gray, Of Houston, Texas,
who had come to Washington for pardon
without having provided himself with the
usual and necessary endorsement of his pa
pers, was about TO return unpardoned, when
by accident he was brought into personal
association with the Rev. Henry Ward
Beecher, who, after acquiring ample
knowledge of the judge, and of his purpose
Of Immediately returning home without hav-
ing effected The object of his long journey,
rendered his services, as he was about to
start to the White House to fulfill all aps
poin'ment with the President. With char
acterlstic frankness and humor the Judge
exclaimed: "But what would they say al
home when should tell them that | was
pardoned through the Intervention of Henry
Ward Beecher?'
Heretofore, it would have seemed so un.
likely that a tenacious and high-strune
Southron would have found himself in such
relation TO the intolerant and unspairins
enemy of slavery, that prediction of sucl
scene as this would have been received
as capital stroke of drollery. The com
pany present, including Judge Gray anc
Mr., Beecher, manifested their sense of thi
by hearty laugh all round. The assuran
ces on either side were such as belong to tn,
times and the persons, and were of III,
pIeasaniest kind.
In the evening Mr.. Beeoher announce,
to Judge Gray that lie might pack his trunk
that his pardon would reach him in an hou
hence.
