The widow and orphans Rund

The Nashville American Of the 10th
has the following: d
For some time past it had been sus-
pected that che affairs Of the Widow and
Orphans Fund Insurance Company
we're in q shaky condition; and the aus
picion became still stronger Yesterday,
when Insurance Commissioner Morrow
upon an examination Of their books and
papers, suspended the company from
the transaction Of further business.
This company was incorporated In
December, 1867, with a capital of not
less than $780, 900 nor more than 81, OO0,-
900, with the usual rights of such CON.
panies, stockholders being liable for the
debts of the company to tba extent Of
the stock owned by them.
The present officers are VIM. Ghidsey,
President; T.. j. Hopkins, Vice-Presi-
dent; T.. L Marshall, Secretary; Elizur
Wright, Actuary. The policies are prin-
cipally held by Odd Fellows, and there
is a branch Office in California.
Having understood that Commissioner
Morrow had completed his examination
into the condition of the Widow and Or
phan Fund Companies, en- American re-
porter called upon him, yesterday, to
ascertain the facts he had derived from
their books and papers.

To day recalls the times of the Next
can war in l847, when the battle Cerro
Gordo was fought. Cerro Gordo is a
mountain pass in Mexico, on the national
highway between Vera Cruz aud the city
of Mexico. where the Americans, under
Gen. Scott, gained q most decisive victory
over the Mexieaus, under Santa Anna.
The Americans we're 5000 and the Mex.
cans $4,000 strong. General Scott d.
rected his army, following out d pro.
gFamme which he had drawn up before
the battle. Generals Shields and Riley
begun the attack at day break and until
2 pm, when the Mexicans became
thoroughly demoralized; the fighting was
very sharp. AT the first Ere General
Shields fell shot through the lungs, but
the woand was not mortal. The Amer.
cans obtained by the victory 5000 prison.
ers, 1000 to 5000 stand of arms, 43 pieces
Of artillery, 7 standards, and Santa
Anna's private baggage end money chest,
This victory was OF the greatest impor-
tance to the Americans; it seemed to
have the effect OF making them irwin.

The crowds of people who visit Court
Square and look into that excavation or
hole making for the new fountain, inter
fere materially with the workmen by get.
tingin their way, asking questions and
suggesting all name Of plans and i'm.
provements. All this embarrasses the
men in charge of the work, and prevents
them from progressing with it rapidly.
1t has become somewest Of a nuisance.
but to look into a hole seems to be one
OF the great privileges of an American
citizen. To add to the trouble to-day all
itinerant preacher, taking advantage of
the crowd Of idlers present, took a stand
in the square, aud began exhortiug
the sinhers to seek salvation BY being
baptized, and thereby become clean
aud regenerated. There was some little
proprlety and appropriateness in this
coldwater cure proposition in view Of the
erection Of the fountain. To-day the
water-pipes are being changed and every.
thing will be got ready to commence the

Ruined by the Love for Display.
Paris Correspondence Of the Philadelphia
Bulletin
There is just now exhibiting"
publicly in Paris the interior of a
private hotel charmingly situated
in the Avenue Gabriel, facing the
Champs Elysees. 1t was purchased
u year or two after the war, by "a
wealthy Peruvian, or who supposed
himself to be wealthy, as a specula-
tor in mines. This is just the sort
of individual, rolling in ready
money, whom a irst-class Partisan
upholsterer and decorator delights
to get hold of and "bleed" while
his veins are full. The poor man
is probably only just removed from
a savage, very fond of finery and
display, grossly ignorant and uned-
ncated, and hardly able to do more
than write checks on his banker,
which is, no doubt, quite enough
for the purpose he is wanted for.
Well, this luckless wight fell into
the hands of a fiIst-rate Partisan
house, well known for its taste and
charges. They infamed him with
an ambition to furnish and deco
rate;" and moreover to give them q
carte-blanche as to expenditure. |
wish | could hope to convey to YOU
my idea of what the result has been.
One result, indeed, is easily told,
which you will readily anticipate,
and that is that the unfortunate
gentleman has been "used up"
almost before he had settled him
self in his hotel, after some three
years spent in furnishing and dec
Grating" at a cost (besides the price
of the hotel) Of more than $1,000
900.
Considering that the house is not
large, and that the above sum has
been expended solely in "furni8h-
ing properly so-called-that is to
say, without works of art or objects
to the price of which there is no
limit-you may well suppose that
all that mere ''upholstering" could
do has been done. And such, in
fact, is the case, and our Peruvian
can hardly complain hat in that
respect he has not had his moneys
worth, such as it is. Never, per
haps, was a more costly and beauti-
full exhibition seen Of modern
French furniture of the highest
quality. The house has been thrown
open for public exhibition the
whole of this week previous to a
sale the week after. 1t is left pre-
cisely in>the state in which it has
Just been finished and hardly in
habited. -Four almost gigantic
statues on revolving pedestals Of the
eFour Seasons placed in the four
corners Of the principal saloon,
and which cost $4,000 francs, were
brought home, an attendant told
me, only two days ago. Every
thing is still brand-new, and it was
pitiable to see a motley crowd tread
ing upon the exquisite Aubusson
carpets, handling curtains and dra-
peries of Lyons silks 50 rich that
they would stand upright OF them
selves, or sitting down upon chairs
and couches of the finest Gobelin
tapestry. But no description could
convey to you an idea Of the cost
illness and luxury Of this millions
worth Of upholstery and furniture
and decoration which this poor Pc.
ruvian has been seduced into pur-
chasing only to bring it under the

A Bereared Mothers Petition.

AS the train bound east stopped for
supper at Sedalia, Mo-, says a local
paper, we noticed a young woman at
tired in deep mourning alight from one
of the passenger coaches and walk down
the platform, attended by a gentleman.
She held a handkerchief to her eyes,
and, with her head resting upon the
shoulder of her escort, her body quivered
with emotion. as the hot tears ran down
her face. We did not suspect, the
cause of her grief until she passed the
baggagemaster leaning against his car.
As she did SO, she lifted up her head,
and with the tears still streaming down
her pale face, she said, in a tremulous
voice: "Please do not pile anything
on my little ones |" and then giving up
afresh to the intensest grief, she sunk
her head ON the shoulder of the gentle
men, and passed back to the coach from
which she came.
AS soon as she was gone from sight,
we stepped up to the baggageman and
inquired the cause of the lady's action,
He thereupon told rs that only three
weeks ago she had passed up the road
