An Incident.

The following is an extract Of letter
from New York, published in the BaIli-
more Episcopal Methodist, of the 4lh
inst:
A Southern lady, on visit TO this city,
went to worship in one of the uptown
Churches. Soon after, an elegantly at
tired Now York lady, of high social STAN
ding, entered the same pew and remained
during the service; after which the Soulh-
crn lady called her aside into the vestry
room, ard III the presence OF the Rector,
with whoa she was well acquainted, thus
addressed her: Madam, | do not wish
10 offend you, but that shawl you are
wearing belongs TO me-" The shawl
was superb ono.) The New Yorker
protested, and declared that there must be
somo mistake. "If," says the Southern
! lady, 49, ou Will examine certain corner,
YOU will see nv nitials worked in il, and
lhe Rector knows my name very we'll.
The corner was found as well as the ini-
tials. The Southorn lady then remarked,
''lhat ring you have upon your finger is
also mine, and if ycu wall take the trouble.
10 eXayine the interior you will see the
same initials engraved in tho ing" Sim
liar movements as above described took
place anG with similar results.
Turning TO her again, the Southern la
dy said "Madam, that bracelet you have
on is mine also, and by pressing a spring
on the inside it will uncIasp AMI show
You my portrait" The New York lady
did as requested and there was the lady
portrait. She promptly returned the ring
and bracelet, as she was convinced be
yond the power TO controvert il, that they
were the property of this Southern lady,
and remarked as she did, "lhey are yours,
and you are welcome TO them, but as
wore Il g shawl TO church, | must beg the
privilege OF wearing 1t home again. The
Southern lady acceGed, of course, and
they exchanged cards. The shawl came
back in due tine, but the New York lady
had probably obtained the articles in such
a manner as TO render it too unpleasant TO
divulge. No more was said shout it.

We haze heard of opium eating, snuff

Virginia Bonds.

Inquiries are frequently made in regard
10 the Virginia State bonds. We find a
correc, statement on the subject in the
money article Of The New York Journal
of Commerce, Of the ID instant, as fol-
lows:
The acknowledged debt is made up Of
six per cent bonds, with coupons attach
ed Of July !, 1851, and after; ofsix per
cent. bonds, from which these coupons
have been Gu, for funding, under the re-
cent arrangement aud of new bonds,
dated on or since January /. 1866. OF
the latter some are coupon aud some are
registered, re the former selling in prefer
ence. There is bot llnle difference in
price between The old bonds with the cou-
pons cul off and the new bunds, the sales
being at price between forty and fifty.
The bonds which are selling al a high
er rate are the old issues, win HE cou
pons still attached. -

, Some weeks ago, IN ihe foreign neWt
il was related that the Emperor Napoleon

Empress that 'son this day we have done

what The Emperor was doing at Paris ;
he was receiving from Austria the ccs.

puzzled until enlightened by Paris let

on the memorable day spoken of by the
Emperor she was visiting the cholera

the hospital she perceived two little chill

heard of death of their last parent. The
Empress, kissing the forehead of the little
girl, said, de les 0dopte.' Among those
who were showing symptoms OF conval
cescence was young English gnl, sem

who had been removed from The town

gentle kindness of the Empress, venturcd

her release, which, Of course, she is Ger.
tain Of obtaining. From the Hotel Dien
Her Majesty went to the prefecture,
where the ladies Of The town were assem-

from the ceremony of presentation, and
started with as lille delay as possible for
the charitable refuge in the Fsubonrg No.
