The Divorce Of the Grand Duke Alexis
Paris Correspondence London Daily News
We have been told from st. PETERSBURG
that the Grand Duke Alexis, son of the Gar
is just divorced. His wife was German
Maid OF Honor, for whom the Empress had
a great affection. She was not pretty, I am
told, but extraordinarily graceful, and pos
sessed of that fascination which is a better
gift than beauty. So the Grand Duke fell
over head and ears in love, and the lady, con-
fiding in her MISTRESS affection, undertook
to break the news, and in few hours after
the lady found herself travelling at express
speed toward the frontier. while the Prince
received orders to join his ship.
Thus they were separated for awhile. But
it is hard to control prince, harder to rule a
sailor; and a sailor prince in love must be
worst to hold than quicksilver. The Grand
Duke ran away, of course, found the lady and
married her at village church in Germany.
Thence they went to America, where for two
years they dwelt in perfect happiness. The
Gar. it is said, would not forgive, nor would
the Prince humble himself. But the Empress
interposed at length, both for her son and
her ex-Maid of Honor; and so, after time,
a reconcilia ion took place. This week the
solemnities of the divorce are all completed;
the Grand Duke enters the army, and his
widow receives pension. Seeing she is but
twenty one, she has time for more romantic
adventures, but greater she can scarcely hope

Dead Letters.

A recent report, emanating from the Post
| office Department, gives some interesting
statistics in regard to the "dead letter sub
ject, which will interest those persons who
are forever contributing. through careless
ness, to this branch of the public service. II
is shown that in 1874 the dead letter office
at Washington handled T. COL, 773 of the 800,
100000 letters carried in the mails. Of these
1882, 224 were delivered, 2 1922, 9l6 Destroyed,
and the balance we're filed or still remain not
acted on. The actual or nominal value oil
the entire number was S4 637, 429 0S. Photo
graphs were enclosed in 80, 767, sums of less
than 81 in 19. 1874, and sums,of 81 and upwards
in Is, 974
Large sums of money are frequently found
in these letters. Several months ago check
for So, 900, drawn to bearer, came to light
when an unstamped envelope was opened, but
the owner was easily found. A cabinet of
curiosities, taken from dead letters, is kept on
exhibition. There are several handsome gold
watches, diamond ring priced by an expert
at 5000, and other articles of jewelry. There
is a bottle of holy water, lump of opium
weighing eleven ounces, and various other
drugs Fancy work of all characters, false
hair, undergarments and gloves, walls, neck
ties, ribbons, stockings, ETC., too numerous
for description. Every four years an auction
is had, and all the stock is sold. Compare
tive reports for the last five years show 8
steady increase in the number of dead letters
received.
