Private Correspondence OF a Nine.
year-Old Hopeful.

A letter. of which the following is a
copy, was received last week by Louis
vile (Ky.) man from his nine-year-old
son, who is spending the winter in Flori
da. 1t is highly descriptive, if nothing
else:
Ny DARLING PAPA: have Just had
my supper. and l thought ! would like
to write to you This morning all of us
went out into the orange grove, right on
the side of the hotel, and ate as many as
we could hold. There is tame heron
in the back yard. When we were down
there he came a following US, and he
caught me right in my breeches behind,
and | ran from Billy, for that's his name.
1t hurt, but didn't boiler. The night
we were on the boat we got stuck on
sand bank until went to sleep. Henry
is sitting beside me writing in his diary.
Uncle Henry ate fourteen oranges to-day,
mamma four, grandma four and auntie
six. So you see mamma and grandma
quit even on the eat. Mamma has just
come and said l must 90 to bed. went
fishing with uncle Henry and little Hen
ry. and l caught a fish two feet and
half long. She twas a cat. 1t liked
to have pulled me in, and Henry and |
could hardly pull him out. He is big

the following letter from the aged

cousin, Mrs. Mary Flint, of Peoria. The
letter is written in a peculiar hand
writing tremulous with age, but the let

Dear Cousin: | received your good letter
& your picture also, & would answered
sooner, but waited to get my picture.
have some, and will send you one, though
they are not good. | am happy to tell
you that we are all pretty well, but a
good deal tired out. We have passed
through the greatest rush of people for
the last six months that | ever saw.
Since the Inauguration it is one steady
stream of old friends calling. 1t takes
pretty much all of the time to entertain
them; they want to see the President
mother. l am the first mother that has
occupied the White House and her son
President, but feel very thankful for such
a son. don't like the word proud, but if
| must use it | think in this case it is
quite appropriate. How many times my
mind goes back to our girlhood school
days; but changes take place. have
seen sorrowful days and have seen happy
days. was once young and am now
old, but have never seen the righteous
forsaken or his seed begging his bread.
l have got a very pleasant room, nice
furnished, and waited on in the very
best manner possible. Now want you
to write to me. Our folks all send love
to you: with very much love, l remain,

A dispatch from Rome to the London
Times, dated February %, saws: 1.-THE
Pope, replying to an address presented
to him by the College of Cardinals on
the occasion of the third anniversary of
his exaltation to the chair of st. Peter,
said it was with trepidation he entered
upon this new year of his pontifcate,
for, as the Cardinals had just pointed
out, the fury of the wind increased, the
tempest agitated the sea and new perils
threatened the mystic barque of st.
Peter. At the present time the Catholic
Church in all parts of the world had to
lament new offences and new attacks
made against her most sacred rights.
Her liberty of action was interfered
with everywhere, and her salutary pacific
influence was opposed in thousand

WHAT CONSTITUTES A MARRIAGE IN
NEW YoRK--The New York Court of
Appeals, through Judge Folger, has
lately clearly defined what constitutes a
marriage contract IN that State
"By the law of this State man and
woman who are competent to marry
each other, without going before minis
ter or magistrate, without previous public
notice given, with no form or ceremony,
civil or religious, and with no record or
written evidence of the act kept, and
merely by words of present contract be-
tween them, may take upon themselves
relations of husband and wife, and be
bound to themselves, to the State and
society as such; and if after that the
marriage is denied, proof of actual CO.
habitation.as husband and wife, acknow-
ledgment and recognition of each other
to friends and acquaintance and the
public as such, and the general reputa-
tIon thereof, will enable a court to pre-
sumo that there was in the beginning an
actual bona fide marriage.

There is some talk at Washington
about the purchase, by our government,
of the Danish West India Islands of st.
Croix, St Thomas and st. JOHNS. The
first named has an area of seventy-fOur
square miles, the second an area of TWEEN
ty-three square miles and the third an
area of twenty-one square miles, with an
aggregate population of about $4,000,
mostly free negroes, who are engaged in
the cultivation of sugar cane, of the pro-
duct of which about 100000 pounds
are exported annually. Great Britain
takes about S75. 600 of the exports of the
three islands and sells manufactured pro-
ducts to the extent of over 81, $50. 900
yearly-chiefy cotton goods. These is
lands, alone of Denmsrk's colonial pos
sessions. are of any commercial import
ance and it is somewhat strange that
King Christians Government is inclined
to part with them. There was some talk
of the transfer of these islands to our
government in 1868, but the subject was
dropped. The property is very valuable.
ST. Thomas is the key to the West India
group, and has a very valuable harbor.
