Andrew Jackson's Marriage.

From papers hitherto withheld the
story of Andrew Jackson's marriage is
now told correctly in the Cincinnati
Commercial for the first time. Rachel
Donelson, his wife, grew up among the
stirring scene Of frontier life. and when
yet in her teens married Capt. Louis
Richards. Robards treated her so
w%retchedly that Peyton Short, a Vir-
ginia lawyer, wrote to Mrs. Robards
advising her to get a divorce. AS was
intended, the letter fell into the hus-
bands hands, the idea being to provoke
a duel. Instead of fighting the craven
husband tried to bIackmail Short for
money. Mrs. Richards was taken by
her husband to Kentucky. where
she was placed at a boarding
house. Andrew Jackson was q
boarder there. He fell in love with
Mrs. Robards, and having learned that
the Virginia legislature had granted her
a divorce, married her. Two years af-
ter the marriage he heard, to his horror,
that his wife had not been divorced at
all. He set to work, however, got the
divorce, and in 1894 he was remarked.

For a couple of years q young lady be-
longing to n well-known family in this
city has been annoyed by the receipt of
numerous letters, whose author ex.
pressed unbounded admiration for her.
These letters were written from various
points, and some of them professed to be
in answer to missives from the young
lady herself. One was received the
other day dated Memphis" and the
young lady's brothers, who had been
quietly tracing the author, finally found
their man in the person of one Jacob
Bernstein, a peddler, who happened to be
spending the holidays in the city. He
was arrested, but investigation showed
that the poor fellow was more to be
pitied than blamed. He confessed that
he had seen her on the streets, and he
came infatuated, that he had written
the letters in obedience to a resistless
impulse. He promised that if released
he would leave Memphis at once and
give no further annoyance. This salts
fed the family, ard the love-lorn peddler

A STRONG GOVERNMENT-- WHAT

The Geneva Courier, strong Republi'
can paper, in discussing the present as
pect of'public affairs, employs the fol-
lowing language:
"There is no denying the statement
that the best thought OF the country fa-
vors a stronger government than the ma.
ton has yet enjoyed"
What is the meaning of "a strong
government"
"a stronger Government" says our
contemporary, than the nation has yet
enjoyed"
Stronger than Washington's
Stronger than John Adams's.
Stronger than Thomas Jetferson's.
Stronger than james Madison's.
Stronger than James Monroe's.
Stronger than John Quincy Adams's,
Stronger than Andrew Jackson's,
Stronger than Abraham Lincoln's.
A stronger Government does not only
mean a stronger administration of our
present form of government, 1t cannot
mean that. There wonld be no signif
canoe to the phrase if employed in that
sense. 1t would be impossible that the
Government could be administered

among its original founders. More

Fashions W0ndr0us Changes.

One thing greatly amused me: Last
season at Saratoga l overheard a lady
from New York describing the dress Of
Shakeress, which she declared was
too prim and ridiculous to be seen in.
1t is wonderful what changes a few
short months will bring in ones
opinions and the style of ones dress,
especially Of wOman's. To-day di-
rectly in front of me in the meeting
house sat my Saratoga critic, clad in a
dress which was almost an exact copy
of the Shaker garb-a short killed skirt
of just the heliOtrope shade which the
sisters wear, and with round waist
gathered at the belt, over which was
deftly laid the neat folds of an India
null handkerchief. She was actually
dressed in the "prim and ridiculous"
costume over which she had so recent
ly shrugged her pretty shoulders and
turned up her little aristOcratic nose.
But then she did not look like Shak--
eress after all. for upon her graceful
head was placed flower garden and
fruit stall. yclept hat, that in turn
would have been set upon and scoffed
at by every right-minded Shakeress in
the house; and upon her dainty feet
were worn a pair of French-heel kid
boots that in contrast with the flat bot
toned CATERS of the sisters was a
shameful frivolity. not to be tolerated
by a disciple of Mother Ann Lee.-N
Y. Post.
