A Collection of Books Written by
Women.

How many American women--or men
either, for that matter-have ever heard of
the Rev. F. ]. Stainforth, an English cler-
gyman who died nearly 20 years ago? Yet
he must have devoted much of bis life and
considerable fortune to building up vast
and singular monument of the literary In
dustry of English and American women
an enormous collection of books written by
them in the departments of poetry and the
drama alone. The library was sold at auc-
ton in London by Sotheby Wilkinson and
Hodge, in July, 1867, the sale occupying six
days; and the auctioneer's catalogue now
lies before me. 1t comprises 3006 separate
lots, and as these lots vary from oJe volume
up to 80, the whole number of volumes In the
library must come fully up to 1000. think
have seen notice of one larger library than
this, composed entirely of women's writings
and books relating to them; but have nev-
er seen catalogue OF any such collection.
With some general knowledge of the subject
-and having indeed been collector of out
of-the-way books bearing on the history Of
women-I must confess 20 being utterly
amazed at the extent of this catalogue. The
vast and minute labor with which Mr.. Stain
forth must have brought together such IL
brary can only be appreciated by one who
has had good deal to do with books.
That such mass of literature has been col
lected from the works of English and Amer
ican women only, and those working but in
one or two departments, shows how much
larger is already the contribution of that
sex to literature than we recognize. have
long been hoping that some woman would
arise with sufficient intellectual zeal and
training to devote herself to a systematic
work on the "Intellectual History of Wom-
am in the same spirit In which Prof. Tyler
is at work ON his great history Of American
literature. When she arises, she will find
even the catalogue of this rare library to be a

SAN FRANcIsco, Oct 4.-Letters received
from several points in Mexico show half the
truth has not been told of the ravages of yell
low fever. One received to-day from George
Treat, well known pioneer and better known
as the owner of the famous race horse Thad
Stevens dated Mozalton, says in order to give
some idea of the violence of the scourge in
this city out of an opera company numbering
81 members, II died including the prima
donna, Peralta, in less than three weeks. At
the end of the following two weeks only I've
of the original troupe were left living.
Medical men were all sick and two died.
Victims were buried hastily and uncoffined,
three hours being the usual interval between
death and burial. For the last week the
deaths have not averaged more than 20 per
day. The disease, however, is sweeping into
the towns like wildfire Courts are all closed,
the judges having fled. The spread of the
disease is believed to be due largely to the
ignorance displayed by physicians as to the
character of the fever.
GUAYMAs, Me-, Oct 4.-There has been only
three deaths in the last two days and 20 sick.
deaths reported from Hermozillo and all
along the road are victims who have been
overtsken by the fever and unable to proceed

ports the fever spreading among Indians. A

survey the Tocolovampo railroad No names

The death has just occurred of lady very
notable in England by reason of her family

Holmesdale was the last of her race, being
the only surviving child of the last Earl
Cornwallis. The first Marquis-he who Sur
rendered at Yorktown-left but one son,
who died without having male issue. At his
death the marquisate became extinct, and
the earldom ultimately devolved on his cous-
in, who hau two daughters. The elder mar
ried Mr.. Wykeham-Martin, on whom by a
tortuous course the famous seat OF the Fair
faxes, (resigned by Lord Fairfax when he,
somewhere about the beginning of the last
century, took up his abode in Virginia,l
Leeds Castle, in Kent, ultimately devolved.
rhe younger, Lady Julia, married Lord
Holmesdale. She was the greatest heiress
of her day, having over $l25, 900 year, and
fine seat. Under her fathers will her
property now passes to young cousin, SON
Of Major Wykeham- Martin, who took part
in the famous Balaklava charge only to die
by injury in the hunting field. The old
CORVALLIS estates in Suffolk were sold at
the death of the second marquis and the
name has now ceased to be. 1t is one Of
those "facts not generally known" that the
irst marquis was strongly opposed to the
Amt rican war. and only took part in II be-
cause unlike Lord Effingham, who resigned
his commission rather than serve) he
thought that a soldier was bound to go
where hidden, regardless of his political
views. His dislike to the service was prob
ably aggravated by the fact that his wife, to
whom he was devoted, pined away on ac-
count of his absence, and thus found an ear
ly grave. Profoundly bereaved, Lord Corn
wallis, who never remarked, threw himself
for distraction into active public life and
died while Viceroy of India.
