HAYWARD VS.. HAYWARD.

Every day brings its events and every
event its lesson. Extraordinary events
teach extraordinary lessons, and these are
sometimes learned by heart. The man will
doubtless be happiest AS well as wisest
who reads. the most carefully and lear IS
the most truthfully. Twenty-Five or
thirty years ago. in Jefferson county.
Wisconsin, Alvinza Hayward promised to
cleave to his wife till death did them
part. They came to this coast in '52 !:
since which time they have accumulated
much wealth-the wife says ten millions
of dollars, and Mr.. Hayward cannot tell
how much. She has applied for d.
vorce on the ground of desertion. aud
asks division of the estate. He con-
fesses by not, denying the allegations
of the complaint. The probabilities are
that had they continued to occupy the
cabin in which they lived when they first
reached the coast, and in which he rested
his weary limbs while she cooked his
meals and where she took in washing.
and had both continued to deny them
selves and delve for living. he would
not have deserted her. But.somehow in
the greed for gain and in the gaities of
the world that death came which parted
them-the bitterest of all deaths, the
death of the affections. Since the bonds
which drew and held them each unto the
other no longer exist they must necessa-
rily drift apart. The Court may and prob
ably will grant the divorce, but the true
marriage bond is already severed, and
has been from the day gain gained the
mastery over him. When all is done the
only interest the world will have in this
episode, aside from the lesson learned
would be in the answer which Mr.. Hay-
wards heart would throb out to the cues
ton whether he is happier now with all
his wealth than when he lived with and
loved his wife. Doubtless with his busi-
ness views he is for with his half of the
estate he will be able to buy handsomer
wife that Mrs. Hayward was even in her
youth. So if there is any anxiety at all
in regard to the matter, aside from pro-
tecting society from the effects of such
alliances. let it be extended toward Mrs.
Hayward, for it is very doubtful whether
at her age. even with five millions at
command. she can get another husband.

MUSIC BY TELEGRAPH.

One OF the most remarkable inventions
IN telegraphy was recently exhibited at
the Office Of the Dominion Telegraph Con-
pany at Bradford, Ont. 1t consists of an
apparatus by which musical sounds can
be transmitted over the wires, and every
word and note be as distinctly heard at
the end of the wires as at the place where
the music originates. In short, when the
invention is in working order, it is held
that concert given at San Francisco can
be plainly heard at New York as at that
place. A second improvement soon to
be exhibited, is that Of sending messages
already written out, without the usual
telegraph operations, and pictures as
well. The plan is to have the messages
written on shellac paper, then placed in a
machine made for the purpose 1t is re-
ceived at the other terminus upon piece
OF sheliac paper from like machine,
plainly written, like copper plate. Pic
lures, the inventor says, can be perfectly
copied by the same process. All this
work can be done by boys, andi put into
opera ion, will do away with telegraph
operators altogether. Still another dis
covery, which it is claimed can be put
into use, Is that of transmitting over a
single wire any number of messages to
the same point and at the same time. rhe
plan is to have corresponding number
of instruments at each terminus of the
wire, and one Of each of these tuned to
correspond with one at the other end.
by this arrangement the entire number
of machines can be operated simultane-
ously, and each will sound the one tuned
to the corresponding pitch ut the other
end without any one interfering with
the other.

HISTORY OF THE ST. LOUIS WHISKY
RING.

The St. Louis Republican gives some
;nc;dents in the history of the whisky ring
n that city, which it vouches for. Sec
retarv Bristow's movements towards in
yestigation, it appears, were disregarded
for some time by the operators at st.
Louis, butas persistence began to threaten
trouble, Mcdonald hastened to Washing
ton and tried to get the President TO re-
move Bistow, but failed. What followed
is thus related
Mcdonald then went to Bristow, deter
mined on bold course to accomplish his
end He told Mr.. Bristow he knew his
game. and that he had a big job on hand,
and he abruptly asked the Secretary,
"Do you intend to indict the folks out in
my district?' g certainly do if there is
evidence of guilt, from the highest to the
lowest" Am I to understand that you
intend to indict me ?" "You should so
understand it, if there exists any evil
dence to connect you with the frauds"
Well. then, | would like to see you
do it,
Mcdonald explained at length the OBJ
stacles in the way of. the Secretary, and
then made proposition of compromise
as follows: Il will agree to hand you my
resignation, and to prevent any further
crooked running in my district if you
will agree to let bygones be bygones and
not to prosecute the balance. Mr. Bris-
tow replied Il have determined that if
can secure evidence against you, you
shall go to the penitentiary.' II go to
the penitentiarv ? You'll have nice job
at that game but what of my PROPOSE
tion p The Secretary said: g If the
President will pardon you, shall say
nothing more" Mcdonald was still un-
satisfied and importunate, and the Secre-
tary agreed to talk to the President about
the matter. Mcdonald wrote his resig-
nation and left. The Secretary subse-
quently explained, as justification of his
course, that he had tried every other
means to convince the President of Nc
Donald's guilt. and had despaired of ac-
omplishing that end, and finally had re-
course to McDonald's own confession.
Mcdonald went to the President and told
the story of his guilt, and the scene was
an exciting one. General Grant gave no
answer to Mr.. DcDonald's S plea for par
don. The seizures in ST. Louis were
made. The Democrat came out with its
disclosures, and it was too late for at
temptS at concealment

A REMARKABLE MILITARY CAREER
According to the Louisville Courier-.Joatr-
nal, the military career of Con. Megrue,
the St. Louis whisky ring informer was
a remarkable one. 1t declares that while
Major of the Fourth Ohio Cavalry he
let his regiment go to the front while he
remained in Cincinnati. General Rose
Grams ordered him out of that city bnt he
still fingered. A second order came for
him to be brought to the field in irons.
This order was afterwards modified, and
Megrue went to the front and resigned.

A PRETTY ORNAMENr.-Here is some
thing pretty that is within the reach of
every little girl. Try it: "Take white
sponge of large size and SOW it full of
rice. oats or wheat. Then place it for a
week or ten days in shallow dish of
water, and as the sponge will absorb the
moisture. the seeds will begin to sprout
before many days. When this has fairly
taken place the sponge may be suspen-
ded by means OF cords from hook in
the top OF the window, where little sun
will enter. 1t will then become like a
mass OF green. and can be kept wet by
the mere immersion of it in a bowl of
water"

similar offence another man received a
like sentence, while a third who had bru-

little curious. The facts were quite

that he assaulted his victim by mistake

Especial Dispatch to the Now York Evening POST
WASHINGTON, July ia western Re.
publican says that the President talked
very freely with him last week in regard
to the removal OF Mr.. Jewell, and said
that he had been contemplating making

grounds, but had not fully decided to do

Fisher Us District Attorney Of Delaware,
For Cabinet officer to attempt TO thWart
his superior officer in this manner was
in the Presidents eyes an objectionable
offence which could not be overlooked,
no matter how Objectionable the nomii
nation might be. The President held
that Mr.. Jewell was not proper person

NOT come within his department, aud so
long as the Acknowledgement, who made
out the appointment, did not interpose
objections, the President thought It was
an uncalled for interference for the head
OF another department to seek to defeat
his wishes.
The President also said that Republi.
eau Senators had come to him and com.
planned that Mr.. Jewell had embarrassed
lie Senate conierees on the Postotlice ap.

Of the House Of Representatives that the
amount could be reduced two hundred
