Insanity of nm Actress.

A Washington paper gives sad nar- rative of the first exhibition of insanity on the part of Alice, one of the we'll known Logan sisters, under circum- stances particularly distressing. On Thursday night she was found wander ing by a policeman in the streets, and when questioned made no reply, except " It's plot to ruin me. It's plot, and I was almost married to him." Seeing that she was laboring under severe men, tai excitement, attended with insanity, he took her to the Central Guard d-house where upon being further questioned, she incidentally remarked that she had been almost married to Albert W. Aiken. playing the "Witches of New York; at Walls Opera House. MT. Aiken was immediately sent for, and soon arrived at the guard-house, where he informed the officers that she was his wife, and had been married that morning by Rev. MT. Addison, at the Trinity church, cor ner of Third and c streets, and was for. merly Alice Logan, who took principal part in the play then progressing at the Opera House. It appears that after she was married in the morning she rode, ir company with her husband, to the St. James Hotel, where they were stopping accompanied by gentleman and Mrs Celia Logan Kellogg (her sister, who as sisted at the marriage, and that the the1 Mrs. Aiken showed signs ot indifference to MT. Aiken. Mrs. Kellogg noticing this, walked with her to friends resi- dence on Ninth street, near K, where sh. remained several hours. Mrs. Kelloge being called away about 8 o'clock in thu evening, left Mrs. Aiken in the house cautioning her to remain there until sht came back, and then to accompany he to the theatre, where she (Mrs. Aiken was to take her regular character in tn play. In the absence of Mrs. Kellogg Mrs. Aiken became unmanageable an, left the house, roaming about the street until met by the officer. Upon the al rival of her husband she scarcely notice him, and reluctantly accompanied hir to the St. James Hotel. Mrs. Aiken now under medical treatment, and it sincerely hoped that she soon will,recove | her mind and health.

The Old Story.

Beside the vine framed window there you sit, The wanton sunshine with your curls coquet-
 ting,
 And there you ply your needle, sing and knit, While here and there your delft white fingers
 fit
 A lovely picture in lovely setting. When, unaware, your guileless lips let drop Some tender strains of melody outgushing, My oriental birds grow mute and stop To listen, poised upon their swaying prop Dumb praise that well might move your
 check to blushing. You wear 6 smile upon your happy face, You never knew the pain of vague regretting, Nor care nor grief have left the slightest trace Thus I, worn out worldling, read your face Your sun of joy has never known setting. Sometimes you turn your sweet sad eyes this
 way,
 And haply envy me my state and glory; You do not see the thorns that hedge my way, You do not know my life is blank and gray 'Tis only, after all, the same old story. wear smile, as joyless women may You do not see the worm beneath the blos-
 som;
 But oh l the wound that rankles night and day But ohl the heart that aches from dawn till
 gray, Fen though wear gem upon my bosom.

Counting Defaced Money.

g H E.
 While was in the Treasury Depart ment at Washington, writes correspon- dent, the contents of safe which was in the Chicago fire was being counted. There was national bank notes, United States Treasury bonds, nickels, railroad bonds, and postage stamps upon the tables. All these must be sorted and ar- ranged, counted and the lue estimated. Such work as this, as may easily be be- ieved, is no light task. The notes are baked to crisp, and are perfectly black and the idea of separating them and de- ciphering the engraving on their faces seems at first utterly absurd. Some of the packages are in tolerable order; in other cases three or four hundred notes which have been carelessly thrown into a box are so melted together that it seems impossible to separate them in others bonds have been tied up in roll for convenience sake, and are in the worst condition possible to be separated. And here I would give 8 word of warn- ing. Anybody is liable to be burnt out 1; any fre-proof safe is subject to being brought under extreme heat and its con- tents roasted, so that all persons having notes, bonds, or postage stamps put away for safekeeping should take the precau- tion to keep them spread out the full size, one placed neatly over the other, and in case of an accident or calamity such as that at Chicago, very little will be lost in the process of redemption, All notes, whose value can be made out, are redeemed at full value. There is no discount on burned money, as there is on mutilated money. The safes or the boxes containing the money are sent at once from the Treasurer's office to the ladies, whom long experience has proved qualified for the delicate and difficult task of handling it and dcciphering its value. They take it carefully from its receptacles, and proceed to separate the notes with the utmost skill. Those notes which are so far gone that they crumble at the ightest touch have their cinders carefully pasted together on sheets of tissue paper. Great care is taken to pre- vent the loss of single note. The ladies are supplied with various aids fin their work. Each has 8 magnifying glass and several small, thin, sharp steel in- struments with flat blades, which last are indispensable in separating the notes. i With national bank notes the name of the State, the bank, and denomination of the note must be deciphe1cd, that the money may be returned to the banks which issued it for redemption. The counter certifies to the number of pack ages, of pieces, denomination, and the total amount. In the case of the Trea- sury notes, the counter furnishes sche- dule for the Office of the Secretary of the Treasury, another for the Treasurer, and third for the Register. These schedules are carefully looked over in these bureaus, signed, and afterwards the notes are burned in the presence o1 representatives of the three officers above named. This work is not only compi- cated, but imposes great responsibility upon those having it to do nevertheless it is proper to state that the ladies re. ceive but $9OO per annum for their labor.

FLASHING THE NEws.-Here is man sitting in a darkened room at Hearts Content. The ocean cable terminates hare. A fine wire attached thereto is made to surround two small cores of soft iron. As the electric wave, produc. ed by a few pieces of copper and zinc at Valentia, passed through the wire, these cores become magnetic enough to move the slightest object. A looking glass, half an inch in diameter, is fixed on bar of iron one-tenth of an inch square, and half an inch long. On this tiny glass lamp is made to glare, so that it's light is reflected on tablet on the wall. The language of the cable is denoted by the shifting of this reflected light from side to side. Letter by letter is thus expressed in this fitting idium in utter silence on the wall. There is nc record made by the machine except as the patient watcher calls out to com rade the translated flashes as they come and which he records. It seems mira cle of patience. There is something ot awe creeps over us as we see the evi dence of human touch 5000 miles away, swaying that line of light by such delicate process as this.

A Curious Matrimonial Question.

The San Jose (Cal.) Mercury contains this singular story:
 There resides with his mother in San ta Clara, Charles W. Sikes, young man of good reputation, worthy and hon. est, but of humble circumstances in life. There also resides in the same nett, 8 granddaughter of Governor Bur- nett, an estimable young lady of eight cen, of fine accomplishments and un- sullied character. These young people, it is asserted, formed an attachment for each other, against the wishes of the girls parents, who. sought, by various meahs, to break the intimacy between them, and they had to meet clandes- timely.
 This state of affairs existed for many months, until the 4th of September last, when MT. Sikes, accom- anied by a young lady who gave her name as Hattie Burnett, called at the law office of c. c. Stephens, of this city-an acquaintance of both parties-and stated as their ob- ject in calling the intention of being united in marriage Justice Stewart was called in, and the parties were duly married. They returned to Santa Clara, remained throughout the day at the young mans home, and then the lady went to her own home. Now comes in the mystery, romance, or what you may call it, of the whole affair. The fact of the marriage leaked out-for Sikes made no secret of it-and soon reached the ears of the girls parents. They asked her if it was true. She said no. and seemed greatly surprised at the intima- hon.
 Sikes claimed that she was his wife, and the girl was brought to confront him in the presence of Mr. Stephens. Here she denied everything relating to the alleged marriage-had only known Sikes as a passing acquaintance intended to marry him-the whole thing was handsome woman bearing { resemblance to her had been procured to personate her, Sc. And in this sht firmly persists at the present time. Int parents believe the girl-the public mostly, sympathize with Sikes. Somt think that her fears have been wrough upon until she dare not own the truth Others don't know what to think.
