CHARLES X. THUkNE's WIVES.

A Bill for Divorce in fSOstOn That Tells y
Tale of tho Actors Life.
The will of the late John Swift, of Phi
ladIphia, leaving half of his large fortune
in trust to his daughter Mary, described
her as the vito of Charles r. Thorne, jr :,
the we'll known New York actor, and as
such has been known for ten years past.
The divorce docket Of the Massachusetts
supreme court contains an entry of a case
soon to be heard in which Ellen ThOrne,
of Boston, claims to bo the lawful wife of
Charles r. and seeks dissolution of the
marriage bond. Tho bill sets fourth that
the marriage ceremony was performed
in Boston in April. 1859; that a
daughter, Grace E. rhorne, was born in
October, 1860; that the libellant deserted
her soon after, and that no had for some
years lived in unlawful intimacy with Mary
Swift Brown, of Philadelphia. The fact
of this marriage is not denied by Thorne's
counsel, but it has been supposed, until ra-
Gently, that he obtained a divorce in the
West before assuming his present relation
with the daughter of the late MIR. Swift.
The above bill was filed in April, 1880, but
pOstponements were from time to time
obtained by Thorne's counsel, the court
ordering the payment of alimOny at the
rate of 81, ,OOG per annum until the case
shall be settled. 1t is now expected that
a divorce will DO obtained without Oppo-
sition early in October. Mrs. Ellen
Thorne is the daughter of the late
William Calder, a widely known aud
much esteemed gentleman, and she has
for some years been living in retirement
in Boston. Grace, the daughter. is gain
ing dramatic reputation, having just Oh
tanned an engagement for the coming sea-
son as juvenile lady at the Boston thea
tire.

THE REAPER IN DARLINGTON.

A reaper is complicated apparatus. Be
fore the parts are all adjusted they look like
il collection of most incongruous elements.
The ideas of countryman on the subject are
usually more or less confused. While one
was being set up the other day on the street
chap with good deal of Lynch's River land
scape about him had been smiling around
for some time, when he ventured to inquire OF
the setter up:

'sOh, it starts from the great electrical res

DO RIGHT.

No pleasure is comparable to that which is
enjoyed by the individual who is conscious
that he has done right. 1t is pleasant to sue
ceed in any undertaking, but success unaccom-
panied with the consciousness Of having done
right, is not to be desired. 1t is a short lived
pleasure at best, and is followed by bitter
pangs.
