MILWAUKEE. Oct 25.-Fay Templeton, |
who opened here tonight with her COM
pany, was seen today and asked to give
her story about the report of her marriage
to Cilly West. the minstrel, and the sepa-
ration that followed. She said she sent
for Billy to come to Nashville, and they
just walked into church and got married
in their every day clothes. There was no
romance about it, and she didn't know
that it was anybody's business, anyway
"But you didn't live together2p asked
the Herald correspondent.
s.What?n she asked, rather suddenly
you didn't live together very long
you separated-got diyorcedg"
No, we didn't get any divorce. That
is, didn't; but we don't live together. "
When did you quit?'

A WHITE ELEPHANT.

P. t. Barnum has for some time
been seeking a white elephant. To
accomplish this we learn that one of
Mr.. Rarnum's best agents was dis
patched TO Siam. The king of Siam
was approached through the resident
United States minister, and asked
whether he would sell or lease one
of these animals. The king shrugged
his shoulders, and asked if thew
knew that the spirit of Budha was
in white elephant. 1t was sug,
gested by the U. S. Minister that
Buddhist priests might accompany
the elephant to this country. The
king has deferred his decision in the
matter and Mr.. Barnum has de.
spatched E 900 to his agent, de-
string him to inform the king that
money is no object, provided the
elephant can be procured.-Mel-
bourne Bulletin.

none! And then at this point our
information ceases. But do we not
know sufficiently? Are we not cog
INFANT of enough?
"Would we dare to pierce the veil
that shrouds the Interior fate of Old
Mother Hubbard, the poor dog, the
cupboard, or the bone that was not
there? Must we imagine her still
standing at the open cupboard door,
or depict to ourselves the dog still
dropping his disappointed tail upon
the floor-the sought-for bone still
remaining somewhere else !? All!
no, my dear brethren, we are not so
permitted to attempt to read the fu-
ture. Suffice it for us to CLEAN from
the beautiful story its many lessons;
suffice it for us to apply them, to
study them so far as in us lies, and
and bearing in mind the natural
frailty of our nature to avoid being
widows; to shun the patronymic of
Hubbard; to have, if our means af-
ford it, more than one cupboard in
the house, and to keep stores in them
all. And oh! dear friends, keeping
in recollection what we have learned
this day, let us avoid keeping dogs
that are fond of bones. But, brethren,
if we do-if faith has ordained that
we should do any of these things-let
us than go, as Mother Hubbard did,
straight, without curveting or pran-
cling, to our cupboard, empty though
it be-let us, like her, accept the
inevitable with calm steadfastness !;
and should we, like her, ever be left
with hungry dog and an empty cup
board, may future chroniclers be
able to write also of us, in the beauti-
full words of our text

A NATURAL CURIOSITY.

Mr.. H. Baulderstone, of the Pier
Hotel, Milang, has sent to the
Register remarkable curiosity in
the shape of one of several turtles
eggs, which he states were picked
out of about two solid feet of lime
stone rock in cutting of railway
line. Two of the eggs on being
opened were found to contain young
turtles, fully formed and alive.
From the position in which the eggs
were discovered, they must have
been there for over forty years, as
the place has been known by those
living in that locality to have been
undisturbed for at least that period,
and it is quite possible that the eggs
are much older. Mr.. Baulderstone
placed one of the young turtles i'm
mediately on being taken out of its
shell in a glass of water, and it is
now thriving.-S. r. Ne,cs Letter.
