a SAD STORY.

The wife of a decent workinginan left
her family in Brooklyn, Mon'ay morn
ing, to do some shopping in New York
for the children. She did not return,
and Tuesday evening. the husband,
searching for her, recognized her in the
body of a woman floating in an East
River dock Ii was found early in the
afternoon, towed in and made fast to a
corner of the pier by ropes, where it lay,
waiting for Coroner to release it. The
distracted husband begged to be allowed
could not be removed without a Core
ner's order. The proper message failed
to reach the authorities till the Offices
were closed, aud the poor man walked
the pier all night, mourning by the body
of his wife. Not till eleven o'clock the
next day could be take the corpse of the
wife and mother home to her children.
Anything sadder than this sight eau
hardly be imagined, the helpless figure,
dressed as she left her home, her pocket
book clutched in her hand, tied in the
water by ropes about the waste, exposed
to tine mockery of the wind and waves.
ber crying children waiting her return,
and the half-crazed faithful monrner
keeping his watch all the wild night in
the darkness by her side. The spec acle
was witnessed by thousands, hurrying
to their work the next morning, and
commented on severely, but no one
dared to meddle with the body against
the law. 1t is thought the woman was
pushed or blown from the dock, on her
way home, in the gale of Monday
Has been a trihe better this week.
There are great many Western and
Southern merchants in the city, and
they are buying with tolerable freedom.
The trade is nothing like that of former
years, but as compared with the utter
stagnation of the last twelve months, it
is good. May it continue to improve.
Expenses are decreasing every day, and
there is a better feeling. PIETRo.
