Matilda Heron.

Matilda Heron, the actress, who died
at New York, on the 9TH, had hard
life. She was an Iri5hwoman, and
came to this country when child.
Her desire to go on the stage was a
passion. Her friends urg ed her not to i;
she had neither voice, beauty, grace
nor fervor, but she persisted in her
study and made her debut at Philadel-
phia in 1851, when about 20, as Blanca
in {" Fazio." She travelled for two or
three years, playing the usual round of
female characters, but was not very
successful. She went to San Francisco !;
her agent died on the passage, and she
reached there unknown and almost
penniless, but made great success in
Blanca, Mrs Halter in 50 The Stranger,
and other parts. Her greatest success,
however, was Camille" which she
played through the East to crowded
houses. She married Robert Stoepel,
at one time leader of Wallack's orches-
ira, in 1857, but the union was unhappy
and she was divorced from him, some
years after, but not before she had
turned over to him all her real and per-
sonal property, for it was found that
she had been secretly married in Cali
fornia, and, separating from her hus-
band, had remarked without being
divorced. Her health failed her
and she retired from the stage,
some years ago. She spoke
several languages, was well verSed in
the classics, and might have made
her mark in literature. But she was inn
pulsive, excitable and eccentric, per-
sisting in playing unpopular pieces,
against the advice of friends and the
public verdict Her last years have
been spent in poverty, her only support
being her little daughter, Bijou Heron,
who has made success as the child in
/" Miss Mutton" Her illness was not
considered mortal. She neglected the
advice of physicians, and her death was
Immediately caused by refusing food,
and moving from one house to another
on Monday. She died saying to herself:
"Poor lilly, you never did wrong to
any one" She was buried from the
g Little church round the corner"
yesterday. An immense crowd gather
ed around the church, and, before the
coffin arrived, it was necessary to close
the doors to keep out the throng. Some
go floral contributions from friends
and pupils of the deceased were
placed on the altar steps, and the coffin
lid was covered with wreaths of flow
ers. Rev. DR.. Houghton, assisted by
his nephew, Rev. E. c. Houghton, con-
Quoted the Episcopal church service.
The remains were taken to Greenwood.
Biiou, daughter of the deceased, and
several lady pupils were the mourners.

THE Pope delivered an sllocution in
the Consisto-y, held at the Vatican on
the 18th. He passed in review events
since 1870, and said Italy took forcible

only liberty granted By ordinary laws
He lamented his inability to prevent i'm
morality and irreligion from pcrmeat-
ing society. In conclusion, he pro
nOunced Cancellation impossible, and
appealed to foreign Bishops to incite
the faithful to the good work of Undue

THE Commission appointed by the
French Academy of Sciences to investi-
gate in regard to the phylloxera insect,
report that 25 departments have been
ravaged, and in many districts poverty,
privation and misery have replaced af-
fuence. In consequence of the destruc-
ton of wine culture the traffic on rail
ways and canals has diminished, and
the public taxes do not yield enough to
pay for collection. Besides the dam
age already done, the districts of Bur-
gundy, Champagne, Loire and Cher
are now threatened. The Commission
recommend various measures for the
isolation of the infected districts and
the destruction of the affected vines.
