CoNJUGAL IHFIDEL1TY AT DETRoIT.-One 81
those sad instances Of conjugal infdelity, by
which the peace of a family has been blasted
woman's reputation ruined, young family
disgraced, and fond husband crushed with
shame, was yesterday published to the world.
Itappears that the young mother Of three
children, residing on or near the Grand
River road, became smitten with the attrac-
tons Of young gentleman living near her,
and taking advantage of the absence of her
husband, about a week since, sent bin by the
hand of one of her children, an invitation to
make an evening call. The gentleman did SO,
and received such cordial welcome that the
visit was repeated several times The intima-
cy became of a very criminal character. Al
though managed with great circumspection,
this intrigue was detected by a person who
shall be designated as Mr.. x. Mr.. X, APP
preaching the fair, frail one with threats ofex-
posure induced her to consent to add one
more to her infdelites, and receive his noe
turnal visits.
Thursday night Mr.. x. paid the charmer a
visit and while in her room was surprised,
and his escape cut off by the unexpected visit
of the ether favored lover. It was but the
work of moment for the siren to conceal him
in closet and then to receive his rival. At
this juncture the husband of the dame made
his appearance, having returned to his home
sooner than he had expected, and succeeded
in surprising himself as well as his wife. The
younger Lothario stood not upon the order Of
his going, but went at once through the back
window, without going through the formality
of resuming the attire which be had laid aside.
The husband followed him, and Mr.. x, think
ing the opportunity of escape a good one, made
third in the chase, only to come to grief, for
the husband, returning toh his dishonored house,
met him coming out and proceeded to admin
lister personal chastisement, which all must
acknowledge was well deserved.
This affair has resulted in the abandonment
of the shining wife and her little children by
the injured husband, who either has gone, or
intends to go to California to live, leaving to
Providence and her cwn conscience the pun
ishment of his faithless spouse.

4 Reply to The Conquered Banner. I"

BY SIR FRANCIS r, OF ENGLAND.
Gallant nation foiled by numbers,
Say not that your hopes are fled;
Keep that glorious flag that slumbefs,
One day to avenge your dead
Keep it widowed -soness-mothers,
Keep it, sisters, mourning brothers,
Keep It, with an iron will
Think not that its work is done
Noble banner, keep it still.
Keep it, till your children take it,
Once again to wave and make it,
All their siFes have bled and fought for
All their noble souls have wrought for;
Bled and fought for all alone
Furl that banner sadly, slowly,
Treat it genty-for It's holy
Till that day, yes, furl it sadly,
Then once more unfurl 1t gladly,
" Conquered banner keep it still.

One STEP FROM THE ALTAR 70 THE GRAVE
One week ago yesterday, Rev. Father Butler
united in the bonds of wedlock, in st. Ste
phen's Catholic church of Newport, Ky Mr..
Tony Laukoff to Miss Agnes Krieft, both OF
that city The young and happy couple en-
ioyed their honeymoon on Friday Saturday
and Sunday, determining that on Monday
morning they would settle down to COM
mencement OF their new life with all its bust
ness, responsibilities, trials, etc. On Monday
morning they rose at an early hour, and robing
themselves in their every day attire, went to
breakfast Each complained of feeling seri-
ously i'll, and neither could eat. The husband
was compelled almost Immediately to retire to
bed, and in few minutes his wife followed
him. A physician was sent for, who, upon
arriving in the sick chamber, and after exami-
nation of the patients pronounced their disease
the cholera. Immediate attention was giver
to them, and during the day they continued
to grow worse, and at four and half o clock the
husband died. His body was removed to an
adjoining room. His wife was also in col
lapsed condition, and at eight and-a hal
O'Clock she too followed her husband into the
dark valley and shadow Of death. The bride
groom and bride were robed in their wedding
clothes, and on Tuesday beth were buried il
the same grave. The funeral took place from
their new home and residence on Locust, neal
Brighton street, and was attended by a large
circle of friends.

HoRRoRs or Wharf.-The correspondent df a
New York paper, writing from Prussia, gives
The following account Of atrocities committed
by soldiers in the war:
Let me repeat tie evidence lately given by
a Bayalian concerning an act seen by himself.
He said " Myself and two peasants Of HIT
stadt had escaped from the town (Wurzbu!g)
into little wood about half a mile dist4nt,
All at once came rushing through the woold a
squad Of Bayarian curassieIs not twenty STEPS
away. One of the bindmost reeled in lis sad
die and fcIl suddenly from bis horse the.
horse ran on after the others, anG the soldier
crawled under tree not hundred PAGES fiom
where we stood. There he took off his pants
to look at his wound, and we saw that he vas
bleeding ii the thigh. He quickly took a
piece Of pork out Of his haversack cut it in two,
laid The two pieces above and below The wound,
and was about to tie it on with his handler
chief when five Pussian huzzars cane ran
ming up Three of them leapeI off their
horses and gave the poor BayariaQ five stqbs,
from which He fell over dead. Az This moment
two of the Bavarian curassers ran out and
with couple Of blows brought THE two Plus
slams off their horses. Then the other thee,
who had stabbed the BayaIian. and were
etupefcd at the sudden appearance of bis cdm-
rades, fell on their knees and begged for life
They had wives and children at'homa, they
said But the Bayarians said in: Wild rage,
For you dogs that have so brutaI:y murdered
our comrades we have no pity, aid cut them
10 pieces. We carried the deail Bavafan
away and laid him ii the chqrchylrd, but the
Prussans we left lying"

THE WATER-SPoUTs OF THE GREAT BASIN.
One of the remarkable phenomena of the
great interior basin of Western America, be-
tween the Rocky Mountains and Sierra Neva-
da, is the waterspouts or great masses of
water. A late Virginia, Nevada, paper says
The citizens of Dayton were thrown into a
state of excitement the day before, by the
news from El Dorado canon, that a water
spout had bursted, and was destroying every
thing in its maddened course as it swept along
the Carson river. Piles of wood were swept
away as if they were bundles of straw, and it
is supposed that number of wood choppers
who resided in the canon have been lost, as
there were great many persons engaged in
! wood-cuttng there.
This water-spout equals the one which oc-
cured in Esmeralda county, two years ago,
when party consisting of Mr.. Hugh Glenn,
his wife and mother were travelling in a car
riage. The waterspeut burst upon them,
killing Glenn's -wife and mother, and destroy
ing the carriage. One of the horses was SO
badly bruised that he died shortly after Last
week, a water-spout burst in Austin, Nevada,
+ and for short time the main street was flooded
| destroying adobe houses, injuring stores, &c
/ The amount of damage was several thousand
dollars. These water-spouts account for The
typographical appearance of the country
which shows that they have been quite FIRE
4 quent, and the large boulders that are seer
isolated on alkali flats and deserts, no doub
have been washed there by water-spouts.

les to i" do" Ristoris first appearance in New
York, and the views Of our boot black, +"
" our newsboy," and our "peaeut boy! are

view of the newsboy:
"The character Of Medea is hefty one I
remember to have seen it tackled at th: old
Chatham by Miss Hathaway, and [ thpk l
once paid a quarter to get into Laura Keqnc's
and saw Tilda Heron lift it. The impression
it leaves On the mind, if you ai5t grow yet,
are that you wouldn't like to haze such an old
lady for your mother. Lots Of fellows save
wrote about Medea | read Of her in some
stuck papers Old U. Ripydys he begin it,
and a French fellow finished her up He
wanted Rachel, the great French furrin actor
woman, to play her, but she was afraid and
nobody didn't tackle into her It'll history came
along. Ristori knocked spots jout of her to
ones't and has been doing it ever since. She
did it before all the first class herbcs of Eu

CONSULTING THE WRONG LADY, Mr., Madi-
son is said to have had an aversion to riding
in a carriage complaining especially Of the
great elevation from the ground Jf the seats,
ii those days Of tremendous barGuches He
would have been delighted at bur modern
"rockaways." Frequently on thP street Mrs
Madison woald be in the carriage while he
would be on foot upon the sidewalk, or out in
The roadway, alongside, keeping up conFer-
sation. Once be had stepped into a stol5e to
make some purchases OF the like, aud after a
long detention, but not observing that his car
rage had passed, and was waiting few doors
on, he entered one which stood opposite, with
his customary downcast look, without SEEING
who were its passengers. The famous British
orders in council were an anxious and gloomy
subject, and news which had Just arrived alb
sorbed his attention. A lady Who occu pied
the carriage, knowing his person, was too
much embarrassed to speak, and He sat entirely
unconscious of her presence. H. is known to
have talked freely to Mrs. Maiisor, whose
worth and talents are believed 30 have often
aided his counsels. Suddenly aronsng trom
bis medtations he exclaimed, 80, Dolly,
what shall be done about these orders in coun-
ell ?" Here Tie lady al his side spoke, Upon
which Mr.. Madison started with painful agita-
ton, and after speechless morRcnt abruptly
left the carriage. He Immediately returped,
and with his bIandest courtesy pnd goodt hui
NOR apologised to The great relief Of 'he lady.
