During the tedious process Of working
the ship into the dock there was great
crush in that part of the vessel where the
gang plank waste be swung. Among the
passengers who were here gathered was an
aged lady. She was dressed plainly and
almost commonly. There was a bad rent
in her ample cloak. Her face was furrOw
ed, and her hair was streaked with white.
This was the widow of Abraham Lincoln.
She was almost unnoticed. She had come
alone across the ocean, but a nephew met
her at quarantine. She has spent the last
four years in the south of France. When
the gangrplank was finally swung aboard,

bid her adieu, and cheer was
raised, which turned her head and pro-
voked an astonished smile as she stepped
upon the wharf. The gates Were besieged,
in the carriage which was to convey the
actress to her hotel: She temporarily
waited in the freight office at the entrance
to the wharf. Mrs. Lincoln, leaning on
the arm of her nephew. walked toward the
gate. A policeman touched the aged lady
on the shoulder and babe her stand back.
She retreated with her nephew into the
line of spectators, while Manager Abbey's
carriage was slowly brought in. Sarah
Bernhardt was handed inside, and the car
riage made it's way out through mass of
1ong-shoremen and idlers, who
pressed about it and stared in at the open
windows. After it, went out the others
who had been passengers on the Amerique,
Mrs. Lincoln among the rest.

MARRIED UNDER DUREss.-J Bar
nard, of the Supreme Court of New York,
recently granted a divorce to the wife OF
the Rev. Luther A. Burrell, who was pas
tor of the Lutheran Church at Ramsey's,
New Y ork. The wife before her marriage,
was Miss Annie HENSON. The ceremony
was performed by the Rev. William Day,
of Nyack, on the oath of May last. A few
weeks afterwards she began proceedings
for divorce, on the ground that she had
been subjected to duress. According to
her evidence she accompanied Mr.. BurrelI
in carriage merely for drive. Wnen
near to Nyack her companion produced
pistol and asked her to marry him. She
refused, and he put away his pistol; but,
after reaching the hotel. asked her to take
a walk. She went with him. when he re-
newed his solicitation, threatening that
she should never reach home alive unless
she consented. She was so frightened that
she did not know what happened at the
minister's house. They then left in the
carriage, and reached her home about
midnight. Burrell forb sde her saying any
thing about the matter, and it was not till
three weeks after that she told her father.
she refused to live with Burrell, and the
divorce suit was commenced at her re-
quest. Evidence was presented at the
trial that Burrell was engaged to two 9th
or ladies at the time he forced Miss Heni-
son to marry Inn. Judge Barnard deci-
ded in favor Of the petitioner, saying that
it was no marriage at all. Miss HENSON
burst into a food of happy tears, and was
congratulated by her friends upon her
narrow escape from life OF misery. Mr..
Burrell is clergyman If the Evangelical
Lutheran Church, and claims to be assist
ant secretary of the International Com
mittee of the Young Mems Christian AS

BARoNEss-BURDETT- CoUTTs' LOVER.
The cynosure of neighboring eyes at
Henry Irving's first night of the ''Corsican
Brothers. was the Baroness Burdett-
Coutts, who occupied her roomy box IN
company with Mr.. Ashmead Bartlett, two
other gentlemen and lady. The engaged
couple sat side by side. and seemed per-
fectly absorbed in each other. During the
entr 'actes tea was served the party in the
box, and Mr.. Bartlett's gallantry in wait
ing upon his fiancee was very pretty to see.
You know he claims to be deeply in love
with her, infatuated, in fact, as any nor
NAL lover might be. say normal lover,
but really mean that it is the sweetheart
who is scarcely normal in this case.
She is a sweet-looking, elderly, thin, prop
ermannered old lady; whose marriage with
this healthy, lusty, bouncing boy, young
enough to be her grandson, seems pre-
posterous matter. Their intense interest
in and friendship Tor Irving was eYinced
from the rising of the curtain until It's final
fall. They applauded with all their might,
and when Irving made one OF his humOr-
GUS little speeches after the play was over
they laughed the laugh of delighted friends,
enchanted at their gifted friends success.
To the initiated the baroness standing in
Irving's theater is very palpable. Her
footman is allowed to advance up flight
of steps and to penetrate an interior walt
ing lobby, while the footmen of every
body else- are obliged to stand just inside
the street door in Serrled rank, peering
over each others shoulders in the effort to
catch glimpse of the advancing master
and mistress. hear it rumored in some
quarters that Mr., Bartlett is to be punish
ed for his temerity IN marrying the rich
est woman OF the age by being cut. Cut
by whom? The baroness encourage are
bound to respect him. or if not they must
cease to be the baroness encourage. You
should have seen the respect with which
every one bowed to him who came into the
box to pay their devoirs to her ladyshipl
And her footman touched his hat to the
young American to announce that the car
riage was waiting in manner that show
ed plainly enough he considered him to be
the master,-[ Olive Logan's London letter.

sA.Terible Situation on . Tight Rome.

The persons who went last night to wit
ness the tight rope performance in front
of the Academy Of Music were very near
being spectators of one of those horrible
accidents which, OF late years, are occur
ing too frequently. The showers had wet
ted the rope, which had teen stretched
across the street until it was as slippery
as if woven of glass. Notwithstanding
this fact, when the hour arrived for the
exhibition the performer appeared, and
announced that he would attempt his peri
lOus feat. The crowd cheered him for
his Huck, the band struck up lively air,
and with bow to the audience, Mr..
Harry Leslie stepped upon the rope, and
IN a moment was standing in mid air,
with nothing but his own nerve between
him and death. At first he began to walk
slowly, but gradually increased his pace
until, when he had reached the middle OF
the rope, he attempted Il short run. Then
the rope slackened, and the horrlfied crowd
beneath him saw him reel and stagger like
a drunken man as he attempted in vain to
keep his equilibrium. Before the crowd
could catch its breath sufficiently to cry
out, he fell, but dexterously caught the
rope by one hand, still holding his pole,
however, in the other. 1t took but a
second to convince him that the pole was
too heavy. He released it and it fell
among the frightened mass below. For
tunately no one was hurt.
The crowd now expected that he would
return, but instead of doing so, Leslie re-
NAMED, giving an exhibition OF his agility
and skill. 1t was evident, however. that
his strength was fast leaving him. Sud-
denly he desisted, and began slowly to
climb back to the Academy. When he
came to the point nearest to that building
at which one of the three sets of stay-ropes
we're fastened he became completely de-
moralized and paused to rest. As he sat
shook with excitement.
Twice he essayed to continue his ter
rible climb 10 the roof of the academy, and
each time his extreme nervousness and
perilous position rendered him unfit for the
attempt. But at last, apparently realizing
that the effort must be made shortly or he
would fall, he strung his nerves for final
attempt. The unhappy man chung to the
rope as only man Can cling with but the
tenacity of his grasp to save him from an
awful death. As he neared the end OF the
rope his efforts became leebler and feebler,
and when he was within few feet of the
building rope was thrown to him, which
he clutched and held to as if this obstinate
hold was his life-grasp, the last effort of
desperate nature. For second he hung
suspended, and the crowd almost scream
ed with the agony of the moment. But as
| be was drawn over the edge of the roof,
| such a yell went up as for many a day has
not echoed along the old st. Charles
street.-Ne,o Orleans Picayptne, Oct. II.

A TITLE IN UTTER DIsREPuTE.-Ou
ancient universities have sinned quite as
much as DIR. Buchanan in making degrees

of men add NJ. A., D. D. OF D. G. L. to
their names without having answered a
question ur shown any scholarship or
knowledge over and above what was i'm

all that was required of the candidate for
a degree in civil law was that he should
sit an hour in the school waiting for the
imaginary disputant who never came. and
VINO in the absence of moderator would
have come to no purpose. 1t is idle to say
that the degree of D. D., means anything
at all, except as an addition suitable to
some offices. There is no title in such ut

A GIRL KILLED BY A BULLDOG.-Cap-
tiin John Schearer, of North Beaver, Pa,
recently purchased feroclous bulldog,
which took great dislike to John Wal
lace, young man who frequently visited
the family. On Thursday last Wallace
came to the house when no one was at
home except Captain Shearer's daughter,
a girl OF sixteen. She told Wallace the
dog had broken his chain and he must be
cautious. AS he was going away the bull
dog entered the yard. Miss Shearer called
Wallace back into the house, and told him
to remain there until she chained the dog.
She went to the dog, and as she was about
to take hold of his chain he spFang at her
and knocked her down. Her father was
returning from a field at that moment and
saw the attack of the dog ON his daughter,
Before either he or Wallace could Interfere
the dog had torn the girls throat open,
lacerated her bosom and torn the flesh off
her limbs. Captain Shearer shot and
killed the dog. His daughter came to af-

afterward was thrown into violent CON
vulsions. She died on Saturday.
