The Gain and Loss or $3.50. 600.

In the spring of 1869 the French theatre
in New York was without a lessee. Mr..
Bateman and Mr.. Grau both endeavored Ia
get it. MIR. Grau offered the most. and the
t-leater was handed over to him for Ave
years at yearly rental of $50 600, COM
prislng the house on Fifteenth street. Al
that time Mr.. Grau was quite wealthy.
having made some S135, 900 ON the Ristori
engagement.
MIR. GrAu paid down $40, 900 deposit, and
commenced Immediately to improve and en-
large the thcater at a cost of some $50. 600 To
himself. This was at his own risk, and he was
supposs ed to get the benefit of the enlareinp.
Immediately after this Grau's opera bouffe
company came over from France, and is
generally very well known to have lost a
great deal of money for its manager. In
fact so much that little by little he lost all
he had. and gradually he got behindhand
with his rent. When the opera bouffe
broke up Mr.. Grau was some $40. 900 be-
hindhand, and during the summer, the
theatre being untenanted, the matter got
worse and worse, until Mr.. Grau in de.
spair vouchsafed some property he DOS
sessed to meet the demands of the stock
holders, who were rather hard on him, con-
sidering that he had made such notable
improvements, and been to such expense
for their theatre. Again, lately, Mr.. Grau
got into debt for rent, and, when owing
about s12, 600 here, he suddenly left for
Europe.

WHOLESALE POISONING.
A Whole Family Poisoned BY Arsenic
ff Two Already Dead. :

- from the Dubuque Herald. May IL.
Tho people of Prairie township have for
several days been profoundly agitated and
shocked by the death of VIM. johnson and
his sister, together with the almost fatal
sickness OF their aunt, Mrs. Robinson. II
seems that William had been i'll with rheu-
matism, accompanied with heart disease;
bottle OF whisky, therefora, was sent for,
which he trusted would benefit him by its
use.
I On Wednesday the aboye-named relatives
were visiting at Williams house. tbe
whisky, therefore, was made into punch. of
which all partook, and afterward began to
yomlt. This was on Wednesday afternoon.
William grew rapidly worse, and on Thurs
day DIR. Bradley was summoned. It was
somewhat singular that the symptoms of
the rest were not at all similar to bis. On
Friday Mrs. West was nearly as bad off as
William johnson, and DR.. Bradley was then
satisfied that the family had been poisoned
by arsenic. William died ON Saturday
night, and Mrs. West on Sunday, both suit
fering untold agonies. Williams wife and
James were almost despaired of on Sunday
but thanks to the unremitting efforts of
Drs. Bradley, Sherman and REYNOLDS. thew
were rescued, and are now certain to re-
cover. - =
A post mortem examination of William
Johnsons case, as well as the symptoms be-
fore his death, would certainly indicate
poisoning by arsenic; and the same NAV
also bs said respecting Mrs. West. The
examination was performed by Drs. Brad

Lanoming and Reynolds. II revealed

ach OF William johnson, which will be for

A Queer FEILow.-Many years ago. in
France, laborer by the name of Douselle,
died while attempting to fast forty days.
He was for long time a curious sort of
fellow, and very headstrong and peevish.
His barber died sevsn years before him.
and from that time Douselle would never
let q razor come near his face. There was
bridge built over the brook which flowed
through the village. Douselle Complain
ed of the style of this bridge, declared
that the place where it was pat vas unsuit-
able for bridge. and swore that he would
never tread upon it He kept his word,
and whenever he had to cross the brook he
waded through it, even in the autumn
when it was swollen When he left his
house in the morning to go to work, he
was accustomed to take particular foot
path. When this footpath became shut up
ON account of house built upon it, he
persisted In going this way the same as be-
fore, aud climbed every morning through
the basement window of the house. and
then went on again on the other side.

FUNNY incident recently occurred af
Chicago which illustrates the facility with
which the marriage tie is sundered in that
paradise of divorce lawyers. An evening
party, composed of married couples. was
recently assembled at one of the comforta.
bic dwellings, on a certain street, and as
the entertainment began to flag at late
hour, it was proposed to play at divorce. =
AS a contribution to the common enjoy
ment. one of the gentlemen offered to act
as the legal agent in the proposed comedy.
The offer was acceded to by sll hands, and
the game was duly finished with much
merriment, when it was discovered
that the gentleman mentioned was
really authorized to pronounce di.
vorces, and the party found them
selves unwittingly returned to state of
single blessedness. The farce was at once
turned into reality, The company scarcely
knew what to do when the time came for
their departure. as it was manifestly impro-
per for the females to go home with men
who were no relation to them. The ladies.
however, after much palavering, went to a
hotel, while the gentlemen each to his IA
miliar domicile. The divorced wives
remained, at last accounts, at their pleasant
hotel quarters, the landlord of which was
getting uneasy in regard to their unliquid
ated bills, as the forsaken females have no
relatives to whom they can be legally pre-
sented. How the husbands enioyed their
is not stated, but it is fair to
presume that they would easily find con-
ISOLATION, and it is even hinted that the
afiair was all a preconcerted plot on their
part.

The Pail Mall Gazette, in notice of
Burke's Pserage, gives the following ac-
count OF the origin of some of the noble
families Of England: s'The founders of the
families OF some Of the present Earls of
Essex and Craven were William Capel. n
draper, and William Craven, q tailor. The
modern Dukes of Northumberland derive
their male descent from Hugh Smithson-
an apotheoary; and the modern Earls of
warwick from William Greyille, a wool
stapler. The Earls of Dartmouth. Radnor.
Ducie, Porcfrey, Tankerville, and Coventry
are descended from skinner, a silk work
CT, tailor, Calais merchant, and the two
latter from MERGERS. The ancestors of the
Earis OF Dudley and Romney were Jewell
ers and goldsmiths, and those Of the Duke
OF Leeds, the Earls of Cowper, Fitzwilliam
and Darnley, Lords Dormer, Leigh, Hill.
Dacre, Willoughby de Eresby and Caring
