from personal experience, is reported te
nave said recently that the Russian
conquest of Armenia would be q very
serious affair for England. With ar.
menia Russia advances to the Euph-
rates, and once she possesses the Euph-
rates, the way to India would for the
greater part be already closed to Eng
land. The question is now whether the
conquest OF kars, as formerly the burn

Will at last ineite England to manly
action. Here at BerIin) the opinion OF
England's power Of action has sunk SO
low that it is doubted whether we shall
see her rise from her lethargy. These
remarks are made in reference to the ex-
planation now given from the Russian
side Of the Emperor Alexander's word
OF honor that he spoke only OF Europe,
and not OF Asia, aud in reference 10 the
cry OF he Russian journals that Armenia

OF Eastern Maine, and some ten years
ago, When they were scarcely beyond
childhood, they were married. They re-
moved to Chicago, but their life was not
a smooth one, and in the course OF a
very few years the wife returned to her
friends in Maine, leaving her husband
In Chicago. He obtained divorce from
her on the ground ofdesertion, and soon
after he married again. At about the
same time his first wife's family removed
to Cambridge, and there she was sup
posed, by her new acquaintancas, never
to have been married, as she mad re-
sumed her maiden name and no intima-
ton was given that she had ever
changed it. Last summer her engage
ment to young man of this city was
announced, aud at about the same time
her former husband obtained divorce
from his second wife. He came East
during the fall, met his first wife, and
on Thanksgiving Day was married to
her."
