She was mar ried secretly last June to Edward Burning, and the marriage has been kept secret, Burm- ing saying that before making it public he wanted to get situation. Last night he tried to get from his wife the portrait of an- other woman he had been attentive to, and she infamed by jealousy took poison in his presence. He acted most heartlessly after the act, and the suicide was not made public until this morning. The woman was e1acie1ate, hence her shame that the marriage should not be made public.

tom of compelling the members of the popu- lar house to thus stand like school boys re- ceiving reprimand. The Lord Chancellor stand ing atsWoolsack read Her Majesty's speech. After the usual words of thanks for the loyal and dutiful manner in which her faithful Commons had voted the necessary supplies for carrying on the government, the Queen was made to say that her foreign relations were all friendly. The failure of Turkey to execute her engagements towards Montene- gro, which were agreed upon in April last, had delayed the settlement of those portions of the treaty of Berlin which were not yet exe- cuted. With respect to other important points of this treaty which still re- mained open at the commencement of this session of Parliament, efforts have been made to adjust the differences which prevent ed substantial peace. The great powers had addressed collective note to the Sultan urg- ing satisfactory settlement of the Greek and Montenegrin frontiers, an administrative organization of the European provinces of Turkey and necessary reforms in Armenian and Asiatic provinces. To obtain these de- sirable objects, the Queen says, she continues to rely upon the continued maintenance of European concert on Eastern questions, and adds that the powers which signed the treaty of Berlin are pressing on Turkey with united action measures which they believe are calcu- lated to ensure tranquility in the East. Re- ferring to the war in Afghanistan the Queen says that the evacuation, paeifcation and set clement of the difficulties in Afghanistan are progressing favorably. The splendid victory won by General Roberts will probably termi- nate the war; In South Africa everything is satisfactory save in Basutoland. Her Majes- ty anticipates further revival of trade and additional revenue to the Government She dwells with special pleasure upon the proba- bly improved condition of the Irish people, who suffered so severely from previous fail ures of their crops, and she then dismissed Parliament with the hope that it's members may return in health and happiness to their respective homes.
 The speech is derided by Conservative journals as weak and inconsequential, and the Irish members are especially dissatisfied, as it contains no promise of measures (Which individual members of the Government had given assurance should be enacted next term.

The problem is great and needs a subdivision. First come the matters concerning the well being of the community. next morality or social order and then finance. The means which the associa- tion might employ were next considered. It must organize plans of investigation and re- search and publish it's discoveries. This is the chief function of the scientific societies in our day. In the meetings of the associa- tion discussions should be promoted. Prom thence must also be given free informal con- versations between members and new seo- tion of history might be introduced. Sociol- ogy is based upon history. He recommend ed the formation of local institutions to pro- mote social science, and mentioned examples of success in this line

 The Lost Vera Cruz-A Statement from

 NEW YORK, Sept. 7.-Messrs. F. Alexandre $ Sons, agents of the New York, Havana and Mexican Steamship Company, publish a card to-day in refutation of the charges of MT. A. K. Owen against Captain Van Slice, of the Vera Cruz. They say that more cour- ageous or intelligent commander of a steam CT than Captain Van Slice never existed, and this is borne out by the testimony of those who have travelled with him during the past twenty years. The complaint of Ar. Owen that the captain never came near his passen- gers during the storm, nor sent to inquire in to their condition, shows to any sensible per son who knows the dangers of the sea that the captain was attending to his duty of saw ing the lives of those on board, which was much more important than looking after Gin such trying hours) the comfort of his pas sengers.
