Stokes Redivivus.

New York Correspondence Detroit Free Press.
1t is curious light, by the way, that
Edward ;. Stokes appears in as he again
comes before the public. A physician
named Thomas is suing for divorce.
His wife, handsome yonng woman
whom he married five years ago, has an
emphatic way of resisting the suit She
doesn't care much whether the doctor
gets divorce or not, but she doesn' t
want to be bothered about it. To law
yers' clerks who have been serving pa
pers on her she has said that she will not
do anything till she has consulted her
friend, Edward S. Stokes, whom she calls
by his old familiar name of Ed" ed

but, if Mrs Thomas is to be believed, he
way that he served Fisk But the
probabilities are, that he will not be
provoked. The doctor is willing to get
out of the way as soon as he can procure
a divorce, and the court has ordered the
trial to go on, whether the doctors wife
puts in an appearance or not.

On inquiry at the Executive Mansion ii

in the story published by the Philadelphia
Herald to the effect that the President has
made certain propositions 10 leading Dem
ocrats for a conference with an equal num-
Der of Republicans for the purpose of avoid
ing an extra session OF Congress, etc, and
promising 10 withdraw the troops from the

being complied with.
SECRETARY SHERMAN SAYS the report was
true that he was DESTROYS of withdrawing
the = per cent. bonds, and to place them
upon the market the per cent. bonds 1t
is true, however, that he has decided to sus-
pend immediately the further issue of the 4
per cents although he would be very glad
not to do so if the condition of the markets
would Justify such action at this time. The
Secretary said he believed it would be
practicable, within a very short period, to
carry ont his idea in this respect. and place
the 4 per cent. bonds upon the European
market At the very moment it was appa-
rent that this could be done, the issue of \
per cents would be stopped. No date has
vet been fixed upon, and he would have to
be governed entirely by the state of the

Brave Act of a Paris Trade sman.

An act of heroism and sang troid is re-
ported by the Paris papers of recent
date. The express train from Paris to
Rouen had reached Bouuieres when the
tire of one of the wheels of first-class
carriage broke, and the wagon was
thrown of the line. The train, however,
continued on its way. The alarm of the
passengers can be more easily conceived
than described and terrible catastrophe
was momentarily expected, when young
man volunteered to get to the driver.
He opened the carriage door, and letting
himself down walked along the steps of
the compartments, holding himself on by
means of the window-rails, until he
finally reached the engine, when the
train was at once stopped. The name of
this plucky fellow is NJ. Alfred Hallat;
he is tradesman of Paris.
