A pITIABLE CALIFORNIA STORY.

| PITIABLE CALIfOhNlA STORY.
The San Francisco Morning Call give
an account of the life Of an unfortunat
actress now in hospital in that city.
The actress referred to made her ap
pearance in California about six year
ago, at the Metropolitan Theatre, anc
created quite favorable impression up
on the theatre goers, and caused nearl,
one-half of the younger portion of thu
town to 60 daft. She was very beauti
full, of fine, commanding appearance
and dressed with remarkable good taste
and was always sure to attract consider
able attention wherever she promenadec
Montgomery street.
She terminated her engagement at thu
Metropolitan Theatre, and disappeared
from sight for some time, and none bu
her acquaintance knew of her wherea
bouts. She had almost faded out of the
memory Of the public, when she was an
nounced in one of the minor theatres. =
The public talked and expressed Their
surprise that she should condescend to
appear at any but first class house
but concluded that the actress knew hel
own necessities, and accepted the engage
ment because she was compelled to. She
played at this house for several weeks,
and then made tour through the inte-
rior of the State, appearing at Mays
vile, Sacramento, Stockton, San Jose
and other towns. She also went to Vir-
ginia aud played an engagement at Pr
per's Opera House, and returning, went
to Oregon and remained there some
months. Upon her return to San Fran
cisco she again appeared at one Of the
Melodeons, and then sank into obscurity.
Two or three years have passed away
since she disappeared entirely from sight,
and perhaps everybody imagined that
she had gone East, but it appears such
has not been the case. She had remain
ed here in San Francisco, and has at
last been attacked by consumption; and
having exhausted all her means, she has
been compelled to seek an asylum in the
city and county hospital. The persons
who in the days of her success, and pros
perity crowded around her and sighed
for her smiles have all forgotten and
neglected her, instead of appearing
each evening before the footlights, and
receiving the applause of delighted au-
diences, she dies in ward in a hospital
upon lowly cot, awaiting the ringing
down of the curtain upon the last act
Here is sad case, and her fate sad
commentary upon stability of the public.
AT this time one firm friend would be
worth more to her than all the applause
that was ever showered upon the greatest
actress that ever walked the mimic stage.

Mr.. Lincoin's Religious Belief


A very foolish and proftless contro-
versy has arisen concerning the religious
belief of the late President Lincoln. The
sum total Of the whole matter seems to
be that Mr.. Lincoln at an early period
Of his life was skeptical, as thousands Of
young men are, and that even at later
time he was inclined to be speculative in
regard to dogmatic theology, as thous-
ands of old men are. In a published
statement, Mr.. Herndon, once his law
partner, admits this; and he also alludes
to the fits of "deep, intense, terrible
melancholy" to which Mr.. Lincoln was
subject. But he gives letter which we
may as we'll reproduce, as it will settle
the matter in many minds, although it
has had no special effect upon our own.
1t was written by Mr.. Lincoln on the 18th
of February, 1851, to his step-brother,
Mr.. johnson, and it is as follows:
II sincerely hope that father may yet
recover his health but at all events tell
him to remember to call upon and con-
fde in our great and good and merciful
Maker, who will not turn away from him
in any extremity. He notes the fall of
a sparrow, and numbers the hairs of our
heads; and he will not forget the dying
man who puts trust in Him. Say to
him that if we could meet now, it is
doubtful whether it would not be more
painful than pleasant; but that, if it be
his lot to go now, he will soon have a
joyous meeting with many loved ones
gone be fore, and where the rest of us,
through the help of God, hope ere long
to join them. A. LINCOLN.
This is not the letter of disbeliever
in the essential truths of Christianity.
That the mind of Mr.. Lincoln was some
times harrassed by doubts is extremely
probable. So was that of the excellent
Cowper; yet we have never seen that
poet charged with infdelity. We con-
fess that this is case which we are not
disposed to judge upon technical grounds.
If asked for the religious belief of Mr..
Lincoln, we would point to his blameless
life, to the comprehensive benevolence
of his nature, to the alacrity with which
he responded to every call of public and
Of private duty, to the boldness and
firmness with which he acted upon his
own conceptions of what the day and
the hour demanded. Instead of an
atheist, we believe him to have been one
OF the most thoroughly Christian men
Of his time.-N. Y. Tribune.

A HEN AND HER PUPs.-An extraor-
binary freak Of nature can be seen at the
keepers kennels at Stanmerpark. A COM
mon domestic hen. two years old, has
been in the habit of laying her eggs in a
dog kennel, in which beagle has lit
ter Of six puppies. now six weeks old.
She wanted to set, and was shut up for
ten days. Now let loose, she has gone
TO the kennels again, and taken charge
OF the pups, as her mother would do with
her chickens. She covers them with her
wings; she scratches about to learn them
to feed; she calls them. the puppies fol.
low her, and she shows fight to any one
who touches them. But the poor thing
cannot nourish them. Surrey Standard.
