NEW ORLEANS can lay claim to the yonDg-
est authOress in America. A little girl,
not eleven years old, has been keeping
diary for some time past, and it was recetly
sent to New York to be read BY some
friends for their own amusement. They
were so we'll pleased with its contents that
its publication was advised. It will be a
volume of over two hundred pages, and
bears the title ''Under the Stones.''
TIE House Committee on Banking and
Currency are opposed to any further infa-
tiOu of the currency, and are determined to
stand firmly by the Recommendations of the
Secretary of the Treasury. They consider
that he has urged the whole subject with
care and superior opportunities for informal
ton. and are willing to accord preeminence
to his conclusions. A majority are also il
favor of having only one kind of Federal
paper currency, aud opposed to the issue o.
the National Banks.
THERE are almost as many divorces az
marriages in Vermont The legally sufh
cient grounds for divorce are "adultry
sentence to confinement in the Stale Prison
for three years or more, intolerabls severity,
wilful desertion for three years, absence fol
seven years and not heard of during the
time, and gross neglect and refusal of the
husband to provide suitable maintenanc,
for the wife, Pray what is the meaning
of the phrase "For better, for worse"
