wives Of Ven Of Genins.

From the Cincinnati Enquirer.l
1t is our decided opinion, deduced
from history and observation, that men
of genius don't make good husbands
On the contrary, they are generally
very poor and inferior husbands, and
their wives have decidedly hard lives
Domestic happiness requires a certain
amount Of worldly tact and knowledge
in which gentlemen Of genius are
often deficient If nature gives a spleu-
did intellect to man, she generally
Withholds a corresponding amount OF
moral aud domestic qualities that are
essential to happiness. Richard Brins-
ley Sheridan, renowned alike as an &C
tor, dramatist, politician and wit, may
with great propriety be called a genius.
The incidents Of his life are well illus
trated BY the anecdote that when his
staid and respectable father advised him
70 reform aud take q wife, be immedi-
ately asked whose wife be should take.
Neither Byron, Bulwer nor Dickens
could agree with their vives--or rather
their wives could not stand them. Mil
tons first wife, we believe, procured q
divorce, and Shakespeare By no means
made a happy match. We can fancy
how impossible il would have been for
any Of the female sex to live comfort
ably with the celebrated DR.. Samuel
johnson in the relation Of wife The
celebrated British AdnirAl Hcrato

A NIGHT IN THE SNOW.
His Night Expsrisnes I'm the Far

-" =
From the Denver (Col.) News.l
The narrow-gauge road beyond the di
vide was severely blockaded by the storm
Of Thursday night and Friday morning
and the return trip Of Frank Hodges
train Friday consumed nearly eighteen
hours time From passenger .wht
came through" we gather the follow
ing particulars: la1,1g Z .gH..l
"fbe train left Colorado Springs a
3:40 Friday morning, having been delay
ed on the downward trip by snow drifts
in the cuts beyond the divide. Colone
Borst, Division superintendent was on
board and autographed for an extra en-
CINE TO meet the train as soon as posi-
Bile. A force Of track hands, armed with
shoyels, accompanied the train, and by
dint Of active and persistent shoy'
cling about nineteen miles was
accomplished before dark, when
it was found necessary to sound
retreat for the purpose Of Sc
curing water for the gallant little en-
CINE. But for this mishap the train
might have gained the summit of the
divide in an hour or two at farthest, but
the fierce wind which never ceased to
blow, drifted the snow back into the cuts
again, and the train was compelled to fight
it's way from Monument TO the summit,
every cut being filled in level with the
surface. The hours wore away very
slowly, as well for the impatient, hungry
and sleepy passengers as for the brave
conductor and his little army Of shovel
ers. The night was bitter cold; and by
the roaring FIRE in the cars men, women
and children shivered, grumbled, swore,
slept, snored and otherwise amused
themselves, while in front the hardy pi-
oneer corps shoveled and swore accord
ing to their several abilities. Inch by
inch the train moved along now back
ing and butting, now going ahead q
mile or two, and now standing motion
less for an hour at a stretch. Meantime
the second engine had come up, and 1t
was hoped their united strength would
force "a passage, but again the
water in the tanks ran low
and the train was abandoned,
while the engines pushed forward
for water, Hours on hours seemed to
elapse before Frank returned with the
cheering intelligence that he had reached
the summit, had filed the tanks with
water, and was going to take the train in
right away quick But he didn't do it
The treacherous snow had already drifted
back into every cut, and the shovel brig
ade was ordered out dozen times be-
fore the summit was reached, and the
gray morning light was breaking when
the train started down the decline.
This side Of the divide the track was
comparatively clear, aud Denver was
reached about half-past eight in the
forenoon. In some Of the cuts the snow
was drifted to the hight of the windows
of the cars, shutting out the light, and
the task of forcing a passage taxed the
narrow gauge to its utmost. That the
train came through atall is remarkable,
and reflects much credit on the noble
conductor and his assistants, to all Of
whom the passengers desire to return
their grateful thanks"

VIRGINIA CHIVALRY.
Two RespeetabIe y sporting Men
In Deadly Combat at Richmond.

Two Respeetablen sporting Men
In Deadly Combat at Richmond.
RICHMOND. December II.
Richmond has been again excited to-
day over the occurrence of one of those
periodical tragedies which mark the an
nails of all communities where the Gus
tom of carrying deadly weapons is tole-
rated. Since the killing Of Rives Pol
lard no event has occurred which has so
stirred the people as the shooting of
John D. Snellings in front Of the post
efiice, in the very business center of the
city, by Andrew Monteiro. This hap.
pened about half past one o'clock, and
when the street was Gro owded with people
The|faets of the rencontre are briefly
these: Messrs. Snellings and Monteiro
are prominent sporting men, and had
been partners up to recent period in
carrying on an extensive establishment
They dissolved their partnership about
three months since, and from that time
there has been considerable ill.feeling
between them, growing oat of the set
tlement of their affairs. This morning
Mr., Snellings was told BY a friend that
Monteiro had eenstalkihg about him in
a very scandalous manner.
He at once went in search of that gem
tleman, and, finding him in front of the
postoflice, at once struck him. The first
blow did not fell him, bat another one
did, and Snellings was about to kick him
in the face, when he was seized by the
bystapders and prevented. yh3aD 5
Monteiro rose to his knees, having
succeeded while down in drawing a
small derringer pistol from his pocket,
and turned upon Snellings and fired.
He was so close at the time that the
powder burned the coat Of the latter.
The ball took effect on SnelHngs body,
entering between the fifth and sixth ribs
and lodging in the lungs. Monteiro
started to leave, when Snelhngs drew
his pistol, and, although staggering from
the effects Of the shot, fred twice at his
retreating antagonist, but without effect
The wounded man fell to the pave
meht, and was picked up and borne to
his rooms. A great crowd collected, and
the excitement continued for several
hours in the vicinity, and was the sub
iect of general conversation throughout
the city all the afternoon. Snellings is
seriously wounded, and but slight hopes
are entertained of his recovery. Beth
parties belong TO respectable families,
and were reared in this city, and the live
liest sympathy is manifested by the pub
lie in the condition of young Snellings.
1t is generally conceded that Monteiro
is verging on forty,five. The mother and
sister, and his other relations, visited
SnellinOg this evening and were over
whelmed with grief. His wife is at pres
ent in New York on visit to her family.
This is double warning against carry
ing concealed weapons, and against Off
cious tale-bearers.

Alexis Inquiring After Our work
N .'U u HH-M Ing Men,. s8 N.H aA

From the Hartford Courant,l
During the Grand Duke Alexis walks
through the Bridgeport cartridge facto-
ry, the other day, he pointed TO several
workingmeno and inquired of Governor
Jewell, care these men what you call
the common people2" The Governor
replied that they were a fair specimen Of
the working classes in this country.
" But do you mean to say that these
get into official positionsf further asked
the imperial scion Perhaps not any
Of these men, rejoined Governor Jew
ell "but men OF their class do; they are
educated men, most of them-that is,
they can all probably read and write,
and most of them take and read the
newspapers. Do you know Of any
cases where such men have actually
been elected to Officer again queried
the curious Alexis. 10, certainly"
the Governor said, 81, myself, worked
in the shop as a tanner till was 20
years OF age. and the announcement
seemed to puzzle the Duke a good
deal. Here was the Governor of a
State, as well dressed aud as we'll ap-
pearing as himself who. had actually
worked in a shop, and this man was vel
coming him in behalf Of a hundred thou
sand voters; it was more of an enigma
than the boy had ciphered on previous
ly; but as he goes through the country
he viii ascertain, upon inquiry, that
very many Of the public men here have
come direct from the workshop. In
Massachusetts, where be is now visiting,
Governor Clahn was a shoemaker, Sena-
tor Wilson was cobbler also, and Gen
eral Banks was machinist. In every
State Just such selfmAde men can be
found. They Gil the highest places
President Grant yas tanner, and
Viee.P President Colfsx aprinter. Presi-
dent Lincoln split rails for living.
There 4 no end 70 these examples of
promotion. Aud the Duke may, if he
chooses, gather facts enough 10 make
