THE TRINITY CHURCH ANNEEE JAMS

lion Of the Anncke JAMS Farm. This
property is situOtcIlin the Fifth, Eighth
and Ninth Wards, on nearly every street
in those wards, and is valued at 800 J0OO,-
00O. The complainants allCgC that ono
hundred and illty years ago, the leaders
Of the English Episcopal Communion cx-
tended their fence 10 enclose this disputed
area, then comparatively valuclcss, and
they have held it since in spite of tho
efforts Of the descendants Of the original
owner To obtain possession Of it. Several
times llave proceedings been instituted in
the State Courts torits recovery, but Trim
iIy hns always had power and Influential
friends at court, and its title has ever been
declared by the Judges established by its
possession, without allowing the casc to
get before jury. Despairing of getting
Justice at the hands Of State tribunals, the
heirs Of this vast property have succeeded
in bringing the matter before the United
States Courts, and capias has been issued
Trinity Church and Corporation
to answer on the 30th instant.

lcssCdly suspicion, both among the pcO.

tlNt suspicion, trustees Nrc not only i'm.
porting teachers from other States, giving
them tho preference over us, but they are
not giving us SO large wagcs, when they

Perhaps this suspicion is not always well

A Strange vet True StorY.

We heard singular story the other day
which is worth repeating. The actors in il
are in humble life, but the little romance
has its interest nevertheless. The FIRST
scene is laid in Germany some twenty years
ago. Carl Schmidt (the name alone Is
fctitious) was the son of a well-to-do
farmer IN Baden. When about twenty
years old he fell in love with a pretty viii
lage maiden. His passion was recipro-
Gated. The pair slowed not wisely but to
well, and lived together as man and wife,
though no priest had performed the ser
vice Of the church upon their union.
Their lives passed pleasantly for five years.
Two children were given them, which both
loved fsndly. But about this time q
temptress entered the domestic Eden, in
the form of dashing woman, who laid seige
to Carrs affections. She persuaded him to
leave his companion, and with the children
they came to America. Here they were
married and lived some years. About six
monIns ago the woman took sick and died,
button her .death-bed in a fit of remorse,
perhaps, made her husband promise to
send for his early love and make an "hon-
est woman" of her. Faithfully and gladly
did he obey the Injunction. He wrote to
Germany, found her still alive, and offered
her again his heart, this time with his hand.
The deserted one arrived in short time,
and the two were united in matrimony,
their children, now grown up, being wit
nessesF of the ceremony. The reunited
family is now living happily together IL
New York. The husband isa patrolman on
the Metropolitan force. The man has al
ways en-indastrious and frugal, and now
talks of returning with his wife to end his
days in his native land. -
