mother is dead, but her father is married

mother is dead, but her father is married
again. "
After her debut at Cincinnati, she started
on tour over the country, and has played
since then in New York, New Orleans,
Nashville and many other places during
the war. She was married at Murfrees-
boro, Tenn, to man by the name of Read,
who was Federal Quartermaster at that
place, and is at present in st. Louis, Mo.
The marriage ceremony WAS performed
privately, and until now has never been
publicly announced. They lived together
for short time only. He abandoned her,
and since then she has led life of shame.
She often told one Of her associates that
above all things she wanted to be good
wife, but her husband drove her to a life
that she abhorred.

A HoARY-HEADED OLD SCoUNDREL.-
Last night while the Democratic crowd
WAS gathering in front Of the Maxwell

cheers a villsinous old Radical scoundrel
named Geo. Horton, who keeps a peanut

street, came into the crowd, and thinking
no one saw him, yelled at the top Of his
voice, "Hurrah for jeff Davis, and God

DEFECTIVE RAILROADS.

To THE EDITOR OF THE HERALD
Hearing so much OF late OF railroad accidents, ana
being an investigatlve person Of the philosophic
creed, ventured 10 solve the true cause Of our late
disasters.
For my field Of operations took one mile OF the
New Haven Railroad and found It in deplorable
condition. suppose would have found the whole
road In the same condition had continued; but not
being salaried officer Of the company could not
very well afford to give IL so much time and atten-
ton. There were quite number OF rails that were
not t to run gravel train on and yet five thousand
passengers are carried over them daily
railroad company that are paying dividend to
the full extent allowed by their charter and building
handsome depots aud bridges for the purpose OF
using their surplus cash. to allow their road TO be.
come In such state that perils the lives OF thou
sands that daily pass over their road is something
that should like explained to me by the managers
would also like TO know, when superintendent
Of a railroad takes Q vacation, II another IL APP
pointed to act during his absence the road left 10
take care OF itself until he returnsS think II tho
supernendents OF the different railroads throughout
the state would ride over their respective roads on
slow train once fortnight the list of railroad acol-
dents would lessen to the same extent as they have
hnen increasing.

difficulty seems to lie not 80 much in the object
Of the mission itself as in the fact that
an American is the ambassador and that the
United States may reap the greatest
| advantages. This is mere jealousy, pue-
rile and unworthy the press and gov
eminent Of q great nation like Eng
land. Mr.. Burlingame is acting sincerely
and faithfully as the representative of China
and In the interests of civilization and pro-
gress. He asks no exclusive advantages or
privileges for his native country He will offer
the same treaty made with the United States
to England, France, Russia and oil the other
Powers. All may be placed on the same foot
ing, and the race for trade with China, the in
PRODUCTION of material improvements or of po-
litical influence, if that be desirable and prac-
tcable, will be left to the swiest and strongest.
Who are complaining, then? Surely England
ought not; for she has four or five times the
amount Of trade with China the United States
has, besides other advantages.
But the British will wait, they say, till Mr..
Burlingame explains the purposes and designs
of his mission. Well, he is just the man to
satisfy the British if they are disposed to be
satisfied at all, or with anything less than
their old bulldog policy. He is statesman
of experience, not in the school of European
diplomatic chicanery, but in the American
school, which teaches directness of purpose
and frankness. He has filed high positions
in his own country; he is an educated and
&c
nized as such here, and he knows how to con-
duct the great interests with which he is en-
trusted Besides, with the treaty made here,
he goes backed by the moral power of the
United States. No minister was ever received
in this country as he has been and no mission
was ever more popular The Embassy was
honored by reception on the floors of Congress,
the treaty was ratified by unanimous vote
of the Senate, the press of all parties endorses
the action of the government, the President
heartily approves of the objects of the mission,
and the people everywhere, irrespective of
political parties, are in favor Of the policy es-
tablished toward the Chinese. It has become
really the first question Of the day as re-
CARDS foreign nations and affairs If England
and other European Powers should re-
fuse to accept the treaty made with US,
or similar one, they will be the losers
and we may be the gamers At
all events, China is now our friend and ally,
and we cannot permit her integrity or indie
pendence to be threatened by a resort to the
old force policy at the instigation of opium
smugglers or trading adventures. We shall
watch the progress of the Burlingame mission
in Europe with great interest, and hope it may
be as successful there as it has been here.

Prayer Meeting Movements.

There is manifestly an active progress
going on in the path Of conversion for the lost
sinners of this sinful metropolis. The heart
of the wckedest man has been touched by the
saving hand of the philanthropist, and at leas!
one den of infamy has been converted into a
piety. Why not all other such haunts of Satan
be brought within the fold? The preachers
and pious females who have wrought such a
miracle in Water street have an unlimited field
before them. There are thousands of sinners
yet to be converted, and surely the touch
stone applied to John Allen, or Evart Allen,
or John Slocum, or whatever the name of this
plastic individual may be, can be effectually
applied also to others more or less stepped in
iniquity. There are, for example, fully a
angelic purity of female virtue Is degraded to
the lowest stratum of vice, and in its altered
nature is made commodity. of public traffic
Even in these haunts of sin there are multi
tudes of souls that may yet be saved-brands
that may be snatched from the burning. The
gates of mercy are not closed upon them,
although the hasty condemnation of human
judgment may have consigned them to an
irretrievable perdition. Here is an opportu-
nifty, golden opportunity, for all our saints,
pretentious or sincere, to put their
faith to practical service. They have been
wasting their time in the useless advocacy of
politics, dragging the pulpit down to the level
of the stump, talking religion from partisan and
fanatical standpoints, in order to increase their
congregations, and, mayhap-although 1t may
be ungracious to say so-advance the price Of
pew rents and add few hundred dollars to
their salary. Now is the time for them to
follow the example Of John Allen by doing
some real service in the redemption Of souls.
By preaching politics they have done nothing
but middle political issues and bewilder the
people, because the preachers know not Of
what they discourse when they abandon the
Gospel for the intricate ways of politics.
When John Allen and Kit Burns opened
their doors to the pious people they did much
to point out the true path which preachers,
parsons and philanthropists should follow.
Let them pursue this path with earnest pur-
pose into the neutrality-suspicious. and the houses
of iniquitous repute, and the mission which
they assume to Gil may fructify into thousand
blessings for society.
