New YORK, December, 1.-THE de-
tails of the compromise of the Moulton
suit show that it was arranged without
the knowledge of Beecher's lawyers, and
greatly to Beecher's indignation at not
being permitted to testify and deny ex-
plicitly he had ever given Moulton infor-
nation on which he based his libel. AL
though thus settled, the friends of Miss
Proctor do not admit that they acted in
any hostility to Beecher, and many o

pleased at the result as removing one OBJ

A. Absent. Minded Minister.

A funny mistake occurred the other

cards werc out for y Wedding to take
place At his church. The day, the hour,
the bridal party arrived; the church was
filled with invited guests, but the offic'-

satisfaction Of all parties, and the fee
handed over to the minister who had

The Queen Of the Sandwich Island.

The new queen of the Sandwich Is
lands, says ictier-writer, is very at
tractive ono, think. cant say what
kind of 4 sensation she would create in
Boston literary society, but, to one occus-
toned TO Hawaiian features and dusky
skins she makes very pleasing picture.
She is about thirty five years OF age, a
little above the average height, port'y
in person, and carries herself with a
queenly dignity becoming her station,
which dignity was entirely natural to
her, as il is 10 most OF the Hawaiian
women. She speaks so little English
that she does not trust herself to use
this language in company, SO conversa-
ton is somewhat difficult; but her bright
pleased, intelligent expression makes up
for great deal else. She had q rcccp-
ton OF the ladies of Honolulu at the
palace recently and her manners were
worthy any lady in the land, while her
dress was simplicity itself, but rich
enough to suit her rank. In her young
or DAYS she was nurse TO the son OF the
present Queen dowagcr, aud was said to
be very beautiful. 1t was thought that
