HUSBANDS VS.. PHOrOGRAPHERs.

Even in our equalizing and law-regula-
ting times, bills of rights have not yet been
framed for the protection of all. The old
Photographic problem comes up again in
the New York courts. The question there
is: Have photographers rights of property
which husbands are bound to respect, or
have husbands rights of purses and exclu-
siveness to their wives pictures to which
photographers are bound to pay becoming
Difference? That is a very complicated
question, with more than two sides, and
there is no law sufficiently comprehensive
to meet it on all sides. A gentleman
goes into photograph gallery and
is shocked by seeing his wife's pic
ture hanging there exposed to public
view. 1t is an ornament to the gallery, but
it is also card which the photographer
uses for the purpose Of advertising bis busi-
ness. The prettier the face the worse it Is
for the husband and the better it is for the
artist. The husband demands that it be
taken down and put out of the range Of
public gaze. The artist argues that it is his
property but that he will sell both the pic
ture and the negative and sets his price.
The husband agrees to the terms but does
net pay and the picture still hangs and the
negative remains the sole property Of the
photographer. The husband brings suit
before court to settle the account between
his rights martial and the artists right OF
property. The Judge is puzzled. he Is
out at sea without either the rudder or COM
pass of precedent, and the photographers
are large and respectable class and SO are
the husbands.

be in this way: Take your carbines, place
yourselves on a line facing Malmaison,
where the enemy is. Yeu will march upon
their garrison with equal step. When suf.

them. The Prussians will reply. You
continue to advance and fire. When one

DUB YANKEE QUEENS.
The Difference Between English and
American Girls.

By Mrs. Stowe, in the Christian Union.
As a study of American society a visit at
Saratoga is a thing quite worth ones while.
There are peculiaritias in it distinctly
American, aud resulting directly from the
habits of republican society. One of these
is the ease and independence of the life.
Nobody is afraid of anybody. There are
no visible bolts and bars, no boundaries of
frigid reserve such as obtain in society
which has been broken into classes, each
of which feels it necessary to keep off the
other from its acquaintance. In an Eng
lish hotel or waJeringplace, for example, it
would be impossible, as here, 10 get at the
heart Of English society aud observe the
daily manners Of the best classes. What
are called the better classes In England are
fenced in by custom and regulation, and rs
completely secluded as the ladies of the
Grand Seignor's harem. There are no
common parlors where all may meet-no
common railroad cars. An English family,
whole and compact, goes everywhere and
keeps by itself. A servant secures COM
partment-car for their sole and separate
use. Close-veiled, and looking neither
to the right nor left, they enter it. At
the hotel their suite of apartments is en-
gagged. They pass from the retirement Of
the car to the retirement Of the hotel, aud
disappear in mysterious shadows. The
1900 gentlemen and ladies who were max
ing Congress hall their home while we were
there were OF our best class-and we say,
with honest pride, that the best class of
Eogish society has no better. The
American family was there well repre-
sented. The father and mother, the young
collegian, the pretty daughter. And here
we must indulge in little gush Of admira
ton at these dear, pretty, charming high
bred American 81 Is. Their beauty is Of q
style so delicate; it is SO much the express
sion Of character; it has 50 many positive
intimatiOns Of suppressed power and abili-
ty, that it is all the more interesting. We
watched several Of these little queens from
day to day without detecting al inharm =
NOUS movement or an uubecoming gesture
everywhere and always they appeared
c0oliy mstresses OF the situation. Tnis pi-
quaint little air of entire self possession and
ability to look any position in the face, is
one Of the peculiarities of our young lady
hood, and when yelled by perfect modesty
is a wonderful charm.

NEWPORT, R. l., Sept. George w.
Howard, Of Rome, N. Y, win be remem-
bered as the gentleman who was married at
Sharon Springs, on Wednesday last, and
was on his way to visit brother in Paw
tucket, &. l., when be Iosth bride of day
by the late Nets disaster. The next morn
ing what was supposed to be his wife's body
was found and it wss reported in these col
umns that her funeral would take place at
Sharon Springs yesterday. The initials
IN. a." were the same az on his wife's
rings, though 1t was of different pattern,
yet he did not feel positive that it was his
vile. Being nearly exhausted himself, and
not In a condition TO think much about it,
be concluded 1t must be her. Accordingly q
coffin was procured at Stonington, and be
started Saturday morning for the home
Of his loved one. he arrived there Satur-
day evening with what he supposed was
the remains of his wife, but on opening the
coffin at the residence of his wife's parents,
they discovered at once that it was not
their daughter. The scene that followed
can be better imagined than described, The
afflicted husband at once returned to Ston-
ington, and forwarded the corpse by ex-
press. When he arrived, he found another
man searching for the body he had sup
posed to be his wife. In the meantime bis
friends in Pswtucket had heard Of the lady
who was picked up by the schooner A. B.
Belden and Drought te Newport; and had
telegraphed to the undertaken for descrip-
ton, which he gave, and az the same time
had a photograph taken and sent also.
This convinced them that the body which
had been in this city since Friday night
was no other than the wife of Mr.. Howard.
He, in company with his brother, arrived
here this morning, aad at once identified
her. The scene that followed beggars de-
scription. As the husband gazed upon
the remains of bis beloved he was deeply
affected, as were ali present. The body
was taken away on the IL O'Clock boat, via
Wexford, and will be taken at once to
Rome, New York. She was twenty-eight
years of age, and bears striking resem-
blance to the woman the husband had sup
posed was bis wife. Mr.. Howard states
that the coat found upon her was placed
there by himself to keep her warm, and
that moment after they were washed
from the Metis, and al his exertions to
save her were fruitless. 1t Is sad story,
probably the most heartrending one that
can be told of the terrible disaster.

Of the face, grow worse as we grow Old

VOICES OF TIE NIGHT.
LIN TOWN.

When CITY roofs are thrilled with heat,
And nights grow sultry, late in June;
When the sounds of wheels and hurrying feet
Die family in some far-off street,
Ana over the silvered spire the moon
Lets her large crescent droop, and soon
Midnight sounds from the shadowy steeple.
And dreams fly down to the slumbertng peOI
When in my fiery attic >
Under the hot tiles gasping lie,
With windows wide to catch the breeze
From distant hillsides cool with trees,
Till, fancy-led, too at last
The blissful gate Of sleep have passed.
Then suddenly on NV neighbor's roof
Two gray grimalkins, brickbat-proof
By bottle and poker undismayed,
Begin their terrible serenade:
''Miow-miowi miow-miow!
Miow-yow-yOw-yow, miow-yow
Night after night, and all night long,
Pm wearied by their hideous song,

At nine O'Clock | seek my pillow,
While the unthinking katydid

And now some stray mosquito comes
About my ears, and softly huns;

And sink at last tc sweet repose;-
Then under my open window, harE

Before his kennel, one dreadful tune
