vorce. couple OF years after the
divorce both parLies again married.
Inc husband, however, as in the case
OF the first marriage, uid not get Oh
pleasantly with the second wife, and in
couple OF years after the second mar
rage he applied to the Chancery Court
iof divorce from his wife, and the
coveted divorce was granted, and he
was again Tree. Then two or three years
more interviewed, when the d0ubly- -di-

ana, seeking among the fair women OF
taat section OF the country, he finally
succeeded i'll finding one we'll suited to

was married to her, thus coming into
possession of his third wife. A few
years later he was divorced from her,

A VETERAN FRENCH REPUBLICAN.

N. Grevy, the distinguished lawyer
ana statesman, who was President of
the late Chamber and one of the oldest
Republicans in public lite, having been
elected from the Department of the Jura
in lS4S by an overwhelming majority. is
sixty-four years old. He is slightly bald
and wears gray whiskers. A man of
simple manners, he devotes his moments
OF leisure to the game of chess, of which
he Is passionateiy fond. His republi-
canism has been unswerving.
In the Assembly of the Republic in
1S48 he was Vice President, aud also q
member Of the Committee of Justice.
He made several able speeches, and
when President Bonaparte began the
series OF intrigues which precede ed the
coup d etat, he found in N. Grew an
opponent. As Pfesi-
dent Of the Assembly 1851 and Of the
late Assembly, he gained universal ap.
plause. He is not bold,
original leader, but is earnest
sincere, conciliatory, trife
weak, and willing to be lead, and max
ing trends by his amiability and fair.
ness rather than followers by his audac-
ity.

chimes tri umph over the world. The Centeu--
NAL Commission have officially announced
the awards, and decreed for the New Wheeler
Il Wilson TWO DIPLOMAS OF HONOR AND TWO
MEDALS OF MERIT. This is double victory,
and the highest award which it was in the
power Of the Centennial authorities to bestow.
No other sowing Machine received such a
recognition. More than thirty OF the best pro-
ducers OF machines in this and other countries
entered for competition, and at PhiladeiphtA
in 1876, as at Vienna in 1873, and at Paris III
1867. Wheeler & Wilson lead the list. After .
careful, rigorous, and exhaustive examina-
tion, the judges unanimously decided that the
superior excellence OF these machines do
served more than one medal Or diploma, and
consequently, they recommended TWO OF
EACH. The Centennial Commission unani-
mously ratified the action Of the judges, and
the public will indorse the decision of these
ablest of mechanical experts A claim Of
equally distinguished honor for any other
sewing machine is only an attempt to hood.
