Charlotte Temple.

Among the countless thrOngs who daily pass
and repass Trinity Church, New YOrk, how
many know that within few feet Of the crowd
ed thOroughfare of Broadway is a grave
which covers all that remains Of a once beauti-
ful and fascinating woman, the record of whose
misfortuncs and sorrows has dimmed the eyes
OF thousands? No date of birth, no indication
of family and no date of death, appear on the
stone that covers the grave OF Charlotte Tem-
pie, whose tragic story, once the theme of every
circle, is probably unknown to the greater mum.
ber of our young readers. The most beautiful
girl in England-sO i: is claimed-she attract
ed the attention OF a young officer, member
of one of England oldest and prOudest fami
lies with whom she was persuaded to elOpe,
under promise that he would marry her when
his regiment reached New York. She was only
seventeen when she took this fatal step In
stead of keeping his vow he cOwardly deserted
her, and then-the old stOry-she soon after
! died of a broken heart A little daughter
which she left was tenderiy cared for at prop
er age taken to England, and fortune of one
hundred thousand dollars settled upon her by
the head Of her fathers family, the late earl OF
Derby, grandfather of the present Lord Stanley.
! She, like a true daughter and a true woman,
returned to New York and erected the monu-
ment that now marks the mothers grave.
The inscription upon it was engraved on solid
tablet OF brass, an inch in thickness, heavily
plated with silver, and thus it read: . Sa-
cred to the memory of Charlotte Stanley-ageC
nineteen years" This flial duty performed
she returned to England and lived life of un
obtrusive piety and usefulness. The pla:t
placed urOn the stone that marks the grave wa
supposed to be solid silver, and tempted the Gu
pidity of certain vandalS, who with hamme
and chisels, succeeded in prying it from tn,
slab. They Were never detected. Many year

one who will take the trouble to look thrOug

the United states able TO compete successfully with
that of any other country in everything feel that

THE NEW MEMPHIs.-Last night was
a brilliant triumph to Mrs. Lander. Even
the sOlemnities OF Good Friday, the most
rigidiy observed fast of the churches
year, could not keep the beauty and
fashion OF our city away, and the thea
ter was filed with one Of the finest ard
most brilliant houses of the season. The
play was S~hakespeGre's great tragedy,
Henry VII, ia five acts, with the full
strength OF the company. Mrs. Lander,
as Queen Ratheriue," was superb, but
the character, in our opinion, does not
afford her the opportunity of showing
her marvellous talents to the fall extent.
Mr.. J. 81. Taylor was east as Cardinal
WOO.sey, y and Mr.. Beck as Cromwell"
Both these gentlemen sustained the rep
utatiOn which they bad already won
among our theater goers, as accom-
piished actors. Mr.. Taylor, especially,
acted the great Cardinal, erst proud, i'm
peri0us, intriguing, and at last broken,
weak and old, to the very life. Tonight
is the last night Of Mrs. Lander, on
which occasion Adr5eaRe, the Actress,
will be given. TneFs will be a "Lsnder
