A Romantic Story OF Stratfbrd,
49,, Connecticut.

- 81 - 4
That such town as Stratford should af.
ford anything in the way of romantic person
al histories was hardly to be expected, but
the subloined story is authentic as wei as in
ferestug. At the commencement Of the pres
cnt century Young man made his Appearance
in the village, and spent a few weeks at the
tavern which then existed to afford shelter to
stage Coach travellers. Whence he came and
what his business none could guess. Direct
ly opposite the tavern stood the small cottage
and blacksmith forge Of a blacksmith named
Folsom. He had daughters Who was the
beauty of the village and it was her fortune
to captivate the heart of the young stranger.
He told his love, said that he was from Scot
land, that he was travelling incog.,, but in con-
hdence told her his real name, claiming that
he was heir to a large fortune She returned
his love, and they were married. A few
weeks thereafter the stranger told his wife
that he must visit New Orleans; he did so.
and the gossips Of the town made the young
wife unhappy by their hints and jeers. In a
few months the husband returned, but before
a week elapsed he, received a lArse budget of
letters, and told his wife that he must at once
return to England, and must go alone.
/ tie took his departure, and the gossips had
another glorious Opportunity to make con
hding woman wretched. Too all but herself
it was q clear case of desertion; the wife be-
came mother, and for two years lived on in
silence and in hope. Attic end of that tir6e
q letter was received by the Stratford beauty
from her husband. directing her to 90 at once
to New York with her child, taking nothing
with her bat the clothessh wore, and eHabaN
in a ship for her home in England On her
arrival in New York, she found ship SPLEEN
didly furnished with every convenience and
luxury for her comfort, and two servants ready
to obey every wish that she might express
The ship duly arrived in England, and the
Stratford girl became the mistress of superb
mansion. and, as the wife of baronet, was
saluted by the aristocracy as Lady Samuel
Sterling. On the death Of her husband,
many years ago, the Stratford boy succeeded
to the title and wealth of his father, and in
the last edition of the peerage and Baro-
netage,' he is spoken of as the issue of
Miss Folsom, of Stratford, North Amer
ica.o When the late Professor Slliman
visited England some years since he had the
pleasure of meeting Lady Sterling at din
ner party, and was delighted to answer her
many questions about her birthplace in Con
necticut. Nation.

The Rebel BOndhOD1eFN.

The agents in London for the English
bondholders of the rebel government have
issued the following call:
"a meeting Of bondholders will be held on
Monday, the 4th day of September next to
consider their altered position, now that die
government of the United States has become
de .fdcto the government of the Confederate
States; it is deemed expedient to appoint a
commsttee to protect their rights and inter
ests, and generally to take such steps as may
be thought advisable. Communications from
bona fde bondholdcrs may in the meantime
be made to the undersigned.
"(Signed)
TERRELL, CHAMBERLAIN & BLAKE
solicitors for Bondholders.
That is about the coolest thing we have
known in a long time to emanate from the
proverbially cool and impudent Englishman
The English friends of the rebellion have
been most consummately humbugged, and
long will they remember the bite of the
Southern copperhead. Perhaps they are Ia
boring under the delusion that they may vet
recover their bonds from this country a In
decker. But they have no Louis Napoleon to
engineer the thing, and if they had, the Uni
ted States is not Mexico. There is not in
international law one shred of authority to sup
port the idea that an established Government
ever could become liable for the debts con-
tracted to aid in its own destruction. The
proposition is so absurd that the statement of
it carries with it its own reflection Even En-
ghsh judges, We are satisfied, wonld not listen
for one moment with favor to the claims of
.bondholders in connection with loan entered
into in contravention of the Queens nentral-
ty proclamation. But it is a good thing for
the United States that they are powerful
nation, or they would have to submit to the
cowardly bully, who has always imposed on
the weak and cringed TO the strong. The
rebel bondholders, in England or elsewhere,
will just receive for their millions of bonds
what they will bring when sold for old paper.

city, who is now in England, appears in

by the following:
"Whi!e the n gro had the sense to hide
his time he was called a fool; while he
had the moral courage and SeIf-control 10
wait for success, he was called a coward;
and while he was supporting both him
self and his master he was called !ozy.

lug name Of diplomacy, rule The North

his race, and no ' that the negro has found

Of all, that he has got hold Of that staple
which he once cultivated 10 make a wind
~ing-shett for his race, and is making f,om
it garments that shall clothr hmm with
stlt-rrllance and @eIf-re>prct-now that
all this Is done, the important question,
and perhaps the last question which his
friends will be called to settle, iS-How
shall the negro be settled in his new CON
dilion without injury to himself, his
his friends, or even his enemies?
''Of course, new difficulties will arise in
his new Observation-Disclosures belonging,
it is true, to his old condition, but none
the less real and pressing on that account.
He has incurred The hate of his former
master by taking up arms against him, he
will provoke the jealousy of the poor
whites b. the eagerness with which he
will learn and the success with which he
will work, and both these classes will re-
fuse, when they can doso, 10 give him work
as long rs this hatred and jealousy lasts,
which will be during the present genera
ton"
Mr.. Martin goes on to show that the
difficulties of this problem cannot be
reached by national legislation, but
that the condition of the negro must be
lief, to the decision Of the state in which
he lives. He adds some remarks which
have an immediate application at home:
Under the pressure of want, and
through confidence in the beneyoIence
Of the northern people, the. negroes, and
perhaps a large number of the poor
whites, will make the mistake OF coming
North, unless provision is made for them
in the South.
"ShouId they do so it will not only
create a burden which the North cannot
bear, hut their coming will pprpetuate
the very evils from which they flee. The
fields will BE- left untitled, and the settled
habits which are so necessary to he begun

the old restraints Of bondage to the full
freedom Of manhood will not be secured,

labor was the lash, and those who have
tasted for the first time the sweets of be-
nevoIence from others under the pressure
of necessity may try and turn the thing
into a luxury. Nor will the evil be less
to the whites who may be able 10 remain

The subscription Fund for Mrs. Linz

The Springfield lMass.l RtpuNican nost mis-.


taken1y rays:
"The scheme for popular subscription to
raise one hundred thousand dollars for Mrs.
Lincoln has been abandoned. It has been
asccrtalncd that the late President left an
ample fortune-yery much larger than ~as
At first supposed. Popular respect for Mr.
Lincoln Will be exhibited In subscriptions to
the monuments to be erected to his memory;
or, still better, to the erection Of homes for
our disabled soldiers, in Ais name"
No part OF the above most mlschteyous
paragraph Is true. The subscription for the
widow and surviving children Of our late Ia
mcnted President has not been abandoned,
and will not be, though Its success may DO
defeated by such cEuel dbsicatlens. On tho
contrary, 1t is now going forward; the
treasurer, {a1r. B. B. Sherman, No. 95 Wall

chants, and the effort is backed By q number
OF our worthicst and most houorcd citizens.
All that is asked il one dollar from each per-
toward making uP TO Mrs. Lincoln and her
children the salary whereof they we're de-

We hare hitherto stubborn1y refused to say

which atr. Lincoln's death left his family,
because re are only asking the American
people to pay their righteous debt to their
sentinel shot down at his post. But It is not
far from it--that ;he late President
left an ample fortuna" On the contrary. we
happen to knnw that Mr. Lincoln's executor
lei Davis, Of Illinois, after taking an account
OF the estate, has notified Mrs. L. that she
cannot afford to keep house on her means,
but must board. So much in reply 10 the
