Bartholomew came down in towering
bassador He demanded loudly to
know where the governor of the state
was and said he would know why he
was subjected to such an indignity. 1t
is known that this is not the only case
In which the minister has pleaded his
immunity, and many other suits would
doubtless be brought against him if
creditors did not know the uselesness
of such 8 course. Bartholomew has
been una c to keep servants longer
than a few days, 10th on account of the
manner III which Ii family lived and
the harsh treatment which they receiy-
ed. He furnished one man servant
with suit of clothes this summer.
The man was soon after taken very i'll
and went TO the hospital. Bartholomew
went to a justice and demanded a writ
to recover the suit of elothes. The JUS
tice would not issue the writ, as it APP
peared that Bartholnmei had given the
man the clothes, and the minister
thereupon went to the hospital ana ac-
tually carried away his employees trunk
on his own back He is physically well
capable of such performance. At
the morning assemblies of the fashion
able world at the circular pavilion in
the casino he has always doomed up a
bove the crowd, looking like Titanic
German farmer in his working clothes.
On these occasions he has always been
surrounded by the members of his fam
lily, talking loudly and necessarily in
various languages. Bartholomew left
here last night, going, as is supposed,
to Washington. 1t is stated that he
has been mysteriously shadowed of
late by detective, who came on here
from New York.

Twas q dull, heavy evening; the light

The field Of ssHOnah ;,

A new civil war has broken out, and
the sacred soil of Virginia is liable to
be once more drenched with gore-al
ways provided that the duelists inn
prove their Workmanship. Only a
little while ago the country held its
breath while the representatives of the
chivalrous families of the Wises and
the Lewises. having exchanged often
sive epithets, exchanged shots, and
washed out stains of invisible disgrace
in imperceptible gore. One cavaliers
shot fell at the others feet. and the
other discharged his weapon into the
empty air. The war having opened !,
hostilities follow thick upon each other
Yestesday was signalized by a CORY en-
counter between George ID. Wise and
our own beloved, readjusting Riddle
berger, he who never is but always to
be sergeant alarms of the senate. Ev-
identity the duel was fought with the
arms which Mr.. Riddleberger desires
to be sergeant at, for his shot was with
out effect, and his opponents shot only
inflicted a slight wound on the too am
pie skirts of his coat. But this sufficed
to satisfy ''honah," and the two comba-
tants found that tneir opinions OF each
other were soimproved that they shook
hands, and left the field of Mars fast
friends. Nor did this satisfy the dogs
of war who have been let loose in Vir-
ginia. General Early having described
Senator Malone as liar and a coward
for an early Malone
duel were made, or at least commenc-
ed, but the hand of unappreciative law,
which has no soul, and not sympathize
with man whose honor has been
wounded, and who is therefore impell-
ed to get some other portion of him
self wounded, was laid heavily on that
and the swaying bulrush
of the Shenandoah was discharged by
the justice ON his own recognizance to
keep the peace. Chicago Times.

vocation. Miss Carlton always and
everywhere protested that the young
girls course was not only praiseworthy,
but beautiful. She maintained that
every woman, young or old high or low,
who took upon herself the labor of ele-
waiting the much-abused as We'll rs de-
spised vocation of housework-upon
which the comfort of every home de-
ponds to fine arr. was public bene-
factor.
Miss Carlton's friends all listened and
laughed, and then went on with their
senseless and malicious TRADE. She
was heartily glad when her engage
ments in New City ended, and she was
obliged to move in such "select" society,
whose ideas were always a mere echo
of opinion-which had been expressed
by few of its more wealthy members.
Mrs. DIR. Forbes, nee Miss Carleton,
had heard very little about New City
society for five years But having oc-
casion to pass through the place on the
cars lately, she treated herself to little
gossipy chat with the conductor, whom
she had knowa rs New City gallant.

Forbes" said he, "unless it is the en-
gagement of Helena Mills TO young

Mrs. Forbes, when her father failed in
80 she took entire charge of the fami-
ly, and she has managed the house
ever since.
"Her father is now in business again
for himself and employs more men
than ever. Her mother, who has been
an invalid for years, was forced by Hell

so as to share her daughters burden to
some extent. As result of the new,
active life she has followed, she has lost
all her ailments, Ind is now happy
hearty, healthy woman. Helena's
brothers have grown up to be fine,
manly, helpful fellows, and the whole
| family are better off every way than
ever before. AS things were going on
before Mr.. Mills failure, the whole
family were in danger of being spoiled
by too much luxury.
"There was a great deal of talk at
first among the big bugs about Helena's
pots and kettles, and they use to say
she has found her true level always
thought there was a spice of malice in
their talk, for the girls of her set envied
her beauty and accomplishments.

A Newport special to the Chicago
Times says: A sensation has been
caused here to-day by the sudden de
parture of the russian minister, Bar
tholomei, leaving behind him large
number of unpaid bills, and a generally
unsavory reputation. Mr.. Bartholomei
has occupied the fine residence of Capt
Downing, here during the season, and
has gone away not only without paying
his rent, but leaving the house and fur
niture in such condition tat Mrs,
Downing, upon entering the house to-
day, could not refrain from bursting in
to tears. Bartholomew, who is an inn
mense man in physique, always dress
ed in slovenly manner, and his faIni-
", consisting Of himself, his wife, and
eleven children, and large retinue of
servants, lived in such slovenly way
that the entire honse is in a shocking
condition. His landlord is not the on
ly party whom his excellency has vic
timized. tradesmen of all sorts have
claims against him which he has failed
to hquidats. A grain dealer named
Murray furnished Borthelomei with
feed for his horses, and, being unable
to collect his pay, ignorantly sued him.

NEW YORK does not elect governor
this fall, but other state officers are to
be chosen next month in that state and
in Connecticut, Maryland, Massachu-
setts, Michigan, Minnesota, Mississippi,
New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Virginia and
Wisconsin. An election in New York
is always of national sighifcance-such
is her importance in the Union-and a
good deal of interest attaches to the
election in Virginia, for the reason that
it will lead to important political results
in the south if the republicans and re-
adiusters are successful.

THIS viii be the greatest year of rail-

in this respect, having witnessed the
laying of 5,147 miles Of track, but up
to the present time n 1881, with two
and half months still remaining
$40 miles have been laid. Railroads
in this country will soon be as plenty
as common roads, if we continue TO
"push things" few years longer, at this
rate
