A special dispatch from London says
the story Of Victories intended abdiea-
tioH IL absurd. The English people
never imagined any such thing, and the
court circles are mitch unused at the
reports circulating in America. The
temper of the queen is too we'll knowr
to admit of any speculation upon the
royal Succession not based upon her
death; Her whole course, domestic and
public, and all her actions, state and
personal, have shown her to be pos
sessed Of fully developed love of
ROVER and a tireless disposition to- rule.

and has no time for marrying. He took
an active part in the salvation meeting
the other night He says he was doing
as Jesus did, and was free from sin. He
carried the flag in the streets and.prayed
three times. There was great disorder
and indignation at Motifs impudence in
praying and speaking.
Hester Stuart writes of the old maid:
Her days are days Of pleasantness, and
her nights are nights Of peace. She goes
to bed when she pleases, and does not
leave one ear uncovered to listen for the
uncertain steps and wavering night-key
of a late coming husband. Neither does
she turn restlessly on her pillow beside
a sober, snoring spouse, and wonder
and wonder, where the children's
school-books or the family's tianneis are
to come from; but she drops into peace
full slumber te dream of her old love,
married life with him could ever have
become the sordid, meager affair which
it is to so many husbands and wives"
