II London Special cab terrible "a
high LIE - reported from Deyonshire Mr.
.Hngh Shorthand, : rich barriater from Aus
,tralia, had been spending the past few months
in that county enjoying q vacation. He made
the acquaintance Of d Miss Dimes, the daughter
5of wealthy country gentle man and connected
with some OF the most istocratic families, and
proposed marriage to her Mr., Dimes, however,
objected to Shortland's attentions, having heard
some .disreputable stores about his habits,
which Nj. Dimes was convinced were
too much those of adissipateI and prohigate.
Shorthand, being cleyein address and skilled
in intrigue, managed to induce Mr. Dimes TO
postpone . final decision until he could be con-
WINGED that his Impressions were erroneous
and thus maintained his entree at the residence.
Taking advantage of the opportunities afforded
by his probation, the Australian pressed his
suit with the young lady, and finally induced
her to elope with him, and they were duly
married Soon after clipping, the young ladys
dead body was found in pond on her fathers
estate. At about the time the body was discov-
cred, Shorthand, twas reported, left Deyonshire.
u was generally supposed, therefore, that Mrs.
Shorthand had committed suicide in q fit Of dos
pondeney. This view was confirmed by q let
ter which was received from Shorthand soon
after the finding of the body. An investigation
was begun and It was soon ascertained that
Shorthand had never left England at all since
his marriage, and that he had written his letter
and sent it under cover to o friend at Brindisi
Shorthand was promptly arrested, and his trial

reason for the murder have failed, and Short.

and groans from the Democratic side, this
from the Republican side The scene in the
chamber was one Of intense excitement and
confusion to which the galleries rendered no
little aid by loud tokens of approval. Tellers
being ordered, Messrs. Converse and Morrison
were appointed by the chair. Before taking

desk, and exclaimed ssClark, see that no
id scoundrel who is paired goes between
the tellers' Clark promising to see that fair
ground should be had Morrison took his STA
hand as he stood opposite that gentleman Then
the voting began, and the tellers announced
the affirmative vote to be 1856 The first man
to pass through in the negative was Reagan Of
Texas, who had been brought in an invalid
chair in order to cast his vote. He was heartily
applauded by his friends and received many
congratulations upon his apparent recovery
from his late severe illness. The negative
vote was announced as Isl, and then George
D. Wise (Va) voted in the affirmative, making
the vote stand 159 to 1855.

Democrats against striking out the
enacting clause of the bill, were Messrs.
Strait, Nelson, Wakefield and White of Mime
sofa. On being asked to explain their votes
these gentlemen all say. that they voted to take
up the bill up to consider it. and having done
SO, they could not consistently vote to eject it
after three weeks' time wasted in discussion.
In addition, they say they favor revision Of
the tariff and would have voted for the Nor

Magnitude Of the Grant Failures.

New York Tribune: Frederick D. Grant,
while not q member of the suspended firm, had
his Office with them, and has been interested
in their operations. Jesse r. Grant, another
son of the general, is not partner in Grant l.
Ward, but it is supposed he has had business
relations with them, and that his finances have
been involved in the same way as those of
Frederick have been. - 49,
An enormous amount of unsecured liabilities
simple receipts for money received for specula-
ton. Neither of the Grants is supposed to
have paid closer attention to details than the
regular drawing of his allowance of SO, 900 per
month. 1t is stated on good authority that
there are outstanding nearly 1900, 600 unse-
individuals. 1t is said that the liabilities of
this character will amount in all to about
5000, GOO Not only are they Grant & Ward
known to have rehypothecated securities
lodged with them on loans by several railroad
companies, but they have obtained larger ad~
yances on some of their coilaterals than the
amounts they had advanced.

Private Life of Emperor William.

Private Life of Emperor William.
The private life of the Emperor Viii
linn flows along very simply. When in
Berlin he occupies comparatively
small palace on the corner Of Inter den
Linden and the Opera place, his pres
ence being made known to the Der
liners by the red flag with the Landwehr
cross, which is then hoisted over the
roof. The window. of his study on the
ground floor looks out upon that point
in Inter den Linden where Rauch's
statue of Frederick the Great stands.
Ordinarily the Emperor rises between
6 and 7o'clock in the morning. He
dresses at once completely fer the day;
the convenience. Of dressing gown and
slippers is unknown to him. The room
to which, after a slight breakfast, he
goes for work is rather plain y furnished.
There is o mahogany writing table
covered with writing materials of every
kind, packages Of letters, small presents
from members of his family,
and mementoes of battles in
the form of paper weights. Smoking
implements fail, for the Emperor is no
friend Of tobacco. On along and broad
table near by lie books, maps, bundles
OF documents, and papers Of various
kinds. The Emperor sits at his work
on an ordinary chair covered with Ieath-
en-, and receiYes personally all COM
munieations $, pens them himself writes
his decision on the margin, and hands
them to his secretary to be disposed of.
One Of his peculiariities IS his economy
II. the use of paper and envelopes. n
Versailles one evening he announced d
new victory OF the Germans to the
Chancellor on piece Of paper which
had been torn from q letter. In Berlin
the envelopes which reach him viii re-
ports from the Foreign Office addressed,
To his Majesty the Emperor goback
with the 81 TO erased and Il fl om sub.
