From the Boston Journal, May 80,
We understand that negotiations which
have been for some time pending between
the Grand Trunk railway Of Canada and
the Montreal Ocean Steam Navigation
company, for the purchase ty the former
of the steam feet belonging to the latter,
have been successfully terminated within
the last few days. The Grand Trunk
railway therefore now has its starting
point in Great Britain, while its enter
prise is pushing westwardly year by year
with steady perseverance,: 1t controls
line Of road across the state of Michigan,
now approaching completion and i, is
soon to occupy, conjointly with the Chi
cago & Northwestern railroad, and with
another line to which we will presently
refer, spacious and central station in the
grea, city Of Chicago. The other joint
occupant of the proposed station is the
Pittsburg, Fort Wayre & Chicago COM
pany, this being only another name for
the Pennsylvania Central railroad, by
which it is controlled, and with which it
forms consolidated line from Philadel.
Phia to Chicago. The Pennsylvania rail
road is also negotiating for some ocean
steamers, so that within a very short time
its point of departure, ike that OF the
Grand Trunk of Canada, will be from the
shores of England. These two great lines
thus taking their departure side by side
from Liverpool, will seperate at the mouth
Of the Mersey, the one following the route
to the north of ireland by wa, of London
derry and of Portland in the winter, and
OF Montreal in the summer, through Can
ada and across Michigan the other by
the way Of Queenstown 10 Philadelphia,
and thence through Pennsylvania, Ohio
and Indiana, ihe Two, after their long and
wide divergence, meeting again at the
head of Lake Michigan, and reaching a
terminus common to both in the me.!op-
oils OF the northwest. This railroad en-
terprise is on a broad and worthy scale: this
is the policy which brings different sections
Of country into close proximity, and lays
under tribute. for the benefit of our public
works, the commerce Of the ocean.

FROM he Cambridge (1LfloGS) Chronicle.
The citizens of this burg were graft
fed on Monday evening last, by a gen
eral invitation to a wedding about one
mile east of town. The couple who
were about to be made one-Samuel
Martin and A. Cooper-were aged re-
spectively SO and IS. We didn't attend
this wedding, but we had a reporter
there: At the appointed hour the
tender" couple appeared before the
anxious audience, the bride blushing
like cranberry, having one finger in
her month, and her fan coquettls6Iy ly-
ing on her cheek. The minister tied
the knot in a twinkling, and then
the fun commenced. Some naughty
young men from town had provided
themselves with fire-crackers, pistols
and putty blowers, which thew used
rather freely. The FREEING had a bad
effect on the brfde-completely nm
strung her ''naryes." Samuel was
prompt in doing what any other deyot-
ed spouse would have done-went
straightway to the kitchen and made
the sharer of his joys a strong cup of
tea, and taking seat by the bed, fed
her tOtth1 spoon! The festivities were
kept up to late hour, when the guests
returned to their homes. We wish the
young gentleman and his aged bride
all the prosperity imaginable. To
wish the bride long life would do no
good, for abe has already passed the al.
lotted three score and ten.

queen Victoria, who was greatly in
uebt when she assembled the British
Nhrone In 1887, Is believed now to be
one OF the richest sovereigns in Europe,
tne KING OF W1rtemburg aud the EN-
peror OF Austria probably have more
real estate but less cash in hand. The
duchess. OF Kent, who never spent more
than third of the $4,000 a wear set
tied on her by Parliament, saved a
large sum, which, by investments and
re-lnvestments, made handsome
amount, and every shilling of
this she bequeathed to her danehter
victoria. The late Mr.. Joseph Neeld,
millionaire who had more money
than brains, was so "loyaln that. pass
ing over his blood relations, most of
whom We're poor, he bequeathed 81. 500
wv IN hard cash to Queen Victoria,
OF the court,l SHer Majesty was
most graciously pleased to ac-
oept." Prince Albert, who was voted
$4,000 a year byan obsequfous ParlI-
ament, had that income doubled by
various sinecures nom his wife, and on
his death, in December, 1851, bequeath-
60 her his little savings, being only
S5,0O0.OO0. Ever since her accession.
nearly thirty years ago, Queen Victo-
ma mas made large savings out of her
income, the gross amount of which.
from the Parliamentary grant, called
the civil list, and from the net reVe-
nue. of the Duchy of Lancaster, exceed
ed $1,000, 900 year. During the four
years that have elapsed since her hus-
bands death, Victoria's expenditure
was so small that she probably saved
three-fourths of her income, and lived
upon only $500, 600 year. In addition
to all this cash, making the pretty little
capital ofS10, 100000, Victoria succeed
ed to a large tract Of eligible building
ground, at Kensington, which Prince
Albert bought some years ago.

A Louisville Clothing Merchant Beat

MON ne L0utsrtle Denocrut, Aug. 2.

bFON1 TIE L0iitsTille Democrat Au0
At late hour last night we were in
formed of rather romantic affair. II Il.
may properly be called such, In which
well known clothing merchant
on Market street was euchred ont of
some z, 600 by the one whom he has Sc
lected as his partner for life. The facts
as related to us are about these: The
aforesaid merchant for some time had,
through correspondence and rather fire.
quent visits, became enamored of a
young lady residing in Ohio, which
leeLhg was reciprocated, and a match
was finally agreed upon, The Cay
fixed for the performances ofthe nun
tuai rights was last Friday, and the
clothing merchant, the hero Of this mar
ratlTe, repaired to Cincinnati, and he
ana ms iaVortte one, a blushinp Gam-
sci rom the Buckeye State, were unit
ed inthe holy bonds of wedlock. The
Two returned 70 this city at once, and
were ushered into finely furnfs6ed
rooms which had been prepared tor the
occasion.
Tuesday the wife Of our merchant
asked of her husband the kew To his
trunk, giving as an excuse that she
wanted to look at some of his clothing,
saying that It would be better to hang
It up In wardrobe than being kept in
the trunk. Trusting the one In whom
he had placed confidence, and who had
at the altar sworn to live with him
nnhl death, he gave his keys to her.
When he went home Tuesday night his
pride was missing, nor did she return.
A thorough investigation as to the
cause OF ner absence developed the fact
thaG she had LETT for parts unknown,
carrying with her s., 600 in greenbacks'
which were In the trunk Of her lfege
lord. The name of the man thus heat
is Moses,

NEW ORLEANS, Aug. /, 1-SO p. MO
Gen. q. Grant, Washing on.-You are
doubtless aware of the serious riot
which occurred In this city on the Both.
A political body, styling itself the Con-
ventton of '64, met on the 30th for the al
legged purpose of remodeling the pres
ent constitutions of the State. The lead
ers were political agitators and revo-
lutionary men. The action of the Con-
vention was liable to produce disturb
ance ofthe public peace. Ihad made up
my mind to arrest the head men, If
the proceedings of the Convention were
calculated to disturb the tranquility of
the department, but I had no cause for
action until they committed the overt
act. About 40 whites and blacks were
killed, and about 160wounded. Every
thing Is now quiet, but deem 1t best to
maintain mill tary supremacy in the
city for a few days, until the affair is
fully Investigated. 1 believe the senti-
ment of the general community is that
of great regret atthis unnecessary cru
city, and that the police could have
made arrests If they saw fit without
sacrificing lives.

luding to his knowledge of the con-
Vention, writes as follows:
The convention was the ostensible
and not the latent cause of the out
break: 1t was a peaceful and lawful
assembly, and one word from the recoU-
ntZed authorities of the United States
IN New Orleans would have secured its.
adjournment. There were other causes
OF ohense than the convention of this
assembly. Its members were and had
Deen firm supporters of the Governs
ment, and decided opponents of its
enemies. They were, therefore, mark
cd men. The wounds inflicted upon
the body of DIR. Dostie will show by.
their number and result the intent and
assurance of his murderers. 1 knew
MIN well. No country ever gave birth
70 more unselhsh man, u tHuer patri-
OF, or a more devoted friend of liberty.

men to the enemies of this country,

that which applied the torch to the CITY
OF New York, and by which Lincoln
