GOODNESS AND VIRTUE.

The ouuriere was called as a witness,
and ordered to show her face to the jury
her left eye was gone and the upper part
of one side of her face entirely disigured.
The physician stated that the right eye
was saved, and thatthe disigur, mentof the
face would almost entirely disappear by
applying skin taken from another body.
Nine. de lilly had her husband give the
girl 10000 francs. AS was predicted
| by all persons, Nine. de lilly was
acquitted. Poor woman Her days they
say are numbered, for she is dying with
consumption, yet those days will be
more gloomy to her than to the
ordinary invalid. The husband did not
appear at the trial, but left for
Paris to escape the indignation and per-
haps violence of the inhabitants OF Saintes.
Although one cannot help feeling COM
miseration for the unfortunate young QUE
riere, the women of France are indebted to
Madame de lilly for more than they real
| ize. This sad event has caused much dis
cussion throughout the country, and those
even who reflect but little cry out that
there is something wrong with the law else
such misfortunes would not occur. In fact
there are

A TERRIBLE SCENE.

Nine. de 7 lily was noted for her devo-
ton to her children, and at the trial she
certified that God was witness she never
had any intention of binding the young
girl; that for five years she had suffered
more than she would ever be able to ex.
plain, and that she would have continued
to SO suffer in silence until her death, had
it not been that the thought maddened
her that that creature should ever
raise her children and bring shame
and dishoror to family so
long known for their responsibility and
virtue it was the love and affection for
her children only which excited her to the
deed. Nine. de lilly is exceedingly beahti-
full, refined and aristocratic, and as she
related the history of her sufferings, both
the audience and jury were excited to
pity. The most distinguished citizens of
Saintes, both ladies and gentlemen, were
present at the trial as an expression of
their sympathy for the unfortunate woman,
| whose entire existence had passed before
their eyes, and had been an example OF

A LIFE OF PLEASURE

And idleness. He could find nothing bet
ter to do than to make love to an honest
little work girl He followed her every
where; stationed himself on the road
| where she had to pass sent her kisses
across the street from his own house, and
when she brought work to his wife, thrust
notes into her hand. The young girl
courageously resisted for long time, but
at length fell. They had known each
other for five years when the event &C.
Cured which has attracted the attention
of all France. From the beginning, Mr.. de
lilly became harsh and unjust to-
wards his wife, and many terrible
scenes occurred between them. At the
trial it was proved that he was nothing
less than monster of cruelty. One day
their little boy remarked to his mother at
table that they had met the little ouvriere
in the street, he and his father, that she
became very red in the face and his father
appeared very singular the mother re-
monstrated with her husband on his con-
duct, which had attracted even the atten-
ton of his children. Mr.. de lilly took
the little boy into an adjoining room aud
beat him numerically. The mother was
obliged to interfere, and there ensued

who. on seeing him enter ran to the win
dow to throw herself out, when the officer
grasped her. for her body was hsif wav
through the window. As Nine. de Tllly
entered the carriage which was to conduct
her to prison, while weeping she addressed
the crowd: do you despise me for
what have done? Am l not rather in
your eyes an honest woman ?" And in
spite of the terrible act which she had
committed, all hands were stretched to-
wards her, and all, men, women and chill
dren wept. Her delicate state of
health, aggravated by the event. rem
dered her too feeble to be taken
to prison, and she was therefore
conducted to the hospital to await her
trial. All the sympathy of the public
was with the wife and mother, yet many
at the same time pitied the misled and
unfortunate young girl, while anger and
indignation were expressed against the
husband. 1t seems that so long as the
grandmother lived, she insisted on Mr.. de
Tilly's retaining his position of employee of
the railroad company, since she considered
that every man should have some occupa-
ton. At her death he abandoned his po-
sition to lead

Some idea Of the Enormous Business IL
Has 10 Hands,.
WASHINGTON, August 30.-Mr. Bently,
the Commissioner of Pensions, has COM
piled some information on the Pension
Bureau which illustrates the magnitude Of
the pension system. He says: On the
sOth Of June last there we're 245, 0aG PEN
sioners. Including the first payment to
pensioners whose cases were settled dur
ing the fiscal year, there were paid out for
pensions $50, 900 900, exclusive Of arrears,
which amounted TO $4,000, 900 in addi-
tion. So there was paid out for pensions
during the fiscal year S5T, coo, 009. The
regular pensions and first payments 70
the new pensioners will in the aggregate
continue TO increase until they shall
have REACHED 1000 in amount,
and perhaps 0 greats. sum. Great as
the interest OF the pensioners whose cases
have tlready been settled has grown 70 be,
the interests OF these persons Who have
unsettled claims represent q still greater
sum, and 1t Is being daily increased BY the
new clsims which arc continually coming
forward. On the 80Gh OF June last there
we're before the office, awaiting settlement,
$50, 600 claims for original army and navy
pensions, involving an average first pay
ment amounting TO SIl 900 in each case,
or total Of sos. 900, 900 for the first pay
ment alone. In addition, there were Il
900 unsettled claims for the War Of 1sl2
and the Mexican and Indian vars. The
annual average ofthe pensions OF all class.
es Is $50 to each pension. The whole
number Of persons decidedly interested
in The pensions, either a. the actual re-
cipients or claimants Is $50 900.
These figures represent the condition OF
affairs on the S0th OF June last. Since
then new claims have been filed at an
average rate Of $50 per day. The regular
annually accruing pensions OF the whole
So, 900, counting the Glsimspts as already
pensioners, are So, 0Oo 900. The annual
pensions are sufficient TO pay the interest
upon fourteen hundred MILLION dollars Of
4 per cent bonds. Add 70 this sum the
sSOs, OO0, 900 arrears, or five payments upon
The pending claims, and we find the enor-
NOUS amount Of 8, 70S, 900, 600 standing
as the capital or representative oil the pen

persistently refused 70 try criminals, re-
