TROUBLES OF THE NEWLY-RIcH

Except the very poor who actually lack
the necessaries of life, there is No class
which has stronger claim to public sym,
pathy than the newly rich, whose numbers
have so increased among us within five
years. A remarkable case of this kind is
thus related:
Ten years ago, in town thirty miles
from Boston, lived a worthy mechanic, who
had accumulated by hard work at his trade
a few thousand dollars, He was induced
to invest his savings in a manufacturing
enterprise. and in three or four years found
himself rich man. Now he is supposed
to be worth not less than half Million
He is good natured, ignorant man, who
is by no means puffed up by his good for
tune; he says that his success is due to nc
merits of his own; that whatever he
touches turns to money, and he can't help
it. He is simple in his tastes, and would
like to live on as he lived so many years
and as thousands of New England mechan-
les live, But he has wife and several
daughters, and the poor man is overruled.
Last winter they must live at a hotel in
town, and sport carriage and pair, which
they did, of course, and this summer they
must have summer residence. So, being
attached to the place of their birth, and
perhaps audably solicitous to impress their
old neighbors with sense of their pecun-
iary Importance, they bought handsome
house at o., and proceeded to furnish
it in the most sumptuous style. But III
the midst of this luxury the mistress there
of is miserable. She has secured the ser.
vices of two ladies who have lived abroad
and have also been residents of houses or
Fifth avenue, and they have taken upor
themselves the entire charge Of the house
hold. The poor lady says she does no
know single dish that comes on the table
all is French.

Men One Would RATHER NOT MEET.-
Men who tell stories that run into one anoth-
er, SO that you find it very difficult to get
away at the end Of any of them.
Men who have been quafreling with all
their relations.
Men who have been betrayed and abandon
ed in the most heartless manner by all their
friends,
Men who have been prosecuted and swim
died by general conspiracy of everybody.
Men who initiate popular actors. .
Men who arc always asking, "Don't you
think so Z"
Men whe are always "putting case"
Men who agree With you too much"
Men who "feel inclined to join issue with
you there"

ABOUT HATING.-HAte not. It is not
worth while, Your life is not long enough
to make it pay to cherish i'll will or hard
thoughts toward any one. What if that
man has cheated you, or that woman has
played you false? What if this friend has
forsaken you in yonr time ofneed, or that
any one who has Won your entire confidence
has concluded that she prefers to treat you
as a stranger? Let it all pass. What diff
ference will it make to you iu few years
when you 60 hence TO the undiscovered
country ?" All who ill-treat you now will
be more sorry for it then than you, even in
your grief and disappointment, can be. -....

NEW YORK, May l5.-The Herald's
New Orleans special says Senator Will
son has arrived there, and will address
public meeting on Thursday evening,
when he will leave for Washington
next day.
During the storm on Monday night,
in this city, st. Paul's church was
struck by lightning. but no serious
damage was done. In Brooklyn sew
eral houses were struck, besides the
stOrehOuse at Red Hook Point. The
large railroad depot at Plainfield, n. j.,
was struck, and completely destroyed
by fire.
The Times special says there is no
truth whatever in the statement that
the United States Grand Jury at Rich
mond have indicted Judge II. w.
Thomas and J. c. Breckenridge for
treason. The latter has never been
mentioned in any session of the jury,
nor the former in connection with
treason; but he has been presented for
misdemeanor in violating the Civil
Rights bill, by refusing to admit negro
testimony III a case before him some
months ago.
Speaker Colfax expressed the opin-
ion few days ago that there would be
no meeting of Congress in July, and
none of the radicals now here, includ-
ing MesSrs. Boutwell,, Ashly, Butler,
Williams and others OF the House,
have any idea that quorum will be
present in the regular branch of Con-
greSS at that time

WAsHISGToS, May 15--The reported
deficiency in accounts of the Assistant
Treasury in New Orleans is about one
million of dollars. He and other par
ties implicated have Internationally
turned over all their private property
to the government. It is not supposed
that the United States will be the loser
to any extent.
The government deposits in the New
Orleans National Banks are less in
amount than the security held by New
Orleans, therefore it will be no loss
from those institutions. The parties
Implicated in the difficulties have here
tOfore borne the highest character for
honesty and financial ability. 1t is sup
posed they involved themselves in cot
ton speculatiOnS.
When the Secretary of the Treasury
received Information of The probable
defalcRtiOn, he last week despatched
a commission to New Orleans to pro-
tect the U. S. Government. There was
no delay on his part i'll the premises.
The Russian legation communicates
the following to the Secretary OF State :
ST.. PETERSBURG, May l5.-The treaty
is ratified. Bodice carries it back i'm
mediately to Gortschakoff.
In the future, postage upon all let
ters for postage destined or changed in
the mails with Great Britain, will adj
vance by a single rate for each hall
ounce or fraction thereof, the same
as upon domestic letters.
