GENERAL M'cLELLAN's ROMANCE.

u EN- ElkAL h'CLELLAN'S ltOhaNCE
An Interesting Story of His First Meeting
With His wife.
C,raland lender.
Avery interesting story was told about
year ago about McClelan's first meeting
with his wife. He married her, you
know, in 1860, and the relations OF the
two during the past quarter Of century
have been OF the happies:. Mrs. McClel-
Ian accompanied her husband everywhere
aud was helpmeet in the true sense OF
the word. She was very proud OF her
husband and was very sensitive to any
ridicuie OF him. He met her in church
in Baltimore in 1900, one cold Sunday
morning. He WIS then travelling through
the United States Oh health tour and
had reached Baltimore Saturday night.
The next morning he left the hotel and
went TO the nearest church. The usher
took him up to the front and seated him
in pew which was already occupied by
a very handsome youCg lady. The ser.
mon WAS prnsy, and Mr.. Mcclellan de-
voted himself To casting sly g'ancts to his
seat mate. He concluded that she was
lair. AS he caught u fuller view Of her he
decided abe was beautiful, aud when at
last he saw her features and her eyes look
ed into hls he felt that he had met his
fate. As they passed ont Of the pew the
young lady blushed under McClellan's
admiIing gszs. He followed her home
and found that she lived in one OF the
handsomest housts Of the city. On in.
0uiry he found that this house was owned
by General r. B. Marcy, the father of one
OF his schoolmateB at West Point. Nc
Clellan at once I!led upon young Marcy
and-through him obtained an introduction
10 M.rcy'S sister, Ellen. He began to pay
her attentions and found upon Gcquaint'
ance that she improved. Ills love was re.
cprocated. They were engaged and in
Nav, 1850, they were married,

stances to make public a bit Of history con.
corning Mrs. Langtry as related by her
husband. He said that himself and wife
were living in sfllleuce on the Island Of
Jersey on an income OF E45, 1000, when the
Duke Of Bedford made the acquaintance
OF Mrs. Langtry. He was greatly struck
by her beauty and paid her much at en-
ton. On his return to London he had 30
much to say Of her extraordinary beauty
that the interest OF the Prince OF Wales
was excited, and in company with the
Duke he went TO see the beauty for him
self. He was no less enamored than the
Duke and persuaded her to make her
debut in London society, taking 1t upon
himself TO request certain ladies to be-
come her sponsor; 10 all OF which Mr..
Lsngtry says he was greatly aveise, as he
saw IN it the end OF their pleasant home
life. They went to London and Mrs.

dissipsted their fortune. When bankrupt
he said to her that he had influence
enough to secure Government appoint
ment and proposed that they retire from
society, take a small house and settle down
quietly. This Mrs. Langtry refused to
DO and declared she would 70 on the
stage first. He told her il she did 80 he
would not live with her. She retorted that
the only man she ever cared for was Sir
George Chetwynd and it ended in her
running oil to the Continent with Chef
wynd, where they travelled under an as
sumed name. OF course, when she re-
turned 10 London the doors Of society
were closed against her.
Mrs. Paget, the daughter OF Mrs. Paran
Stevens, knowing these facts, saw to it
that Mrs. Langtry's introduction to New
York society were iRuored.
At this time Mr.. aud Mrs. Langtry sepa-
rated, there being no such thing as di-

SCRAPS,

An English writer points out the
probability that a smoky atmosphere
is not a wholly unmitigated evil. since
its carbon and sulphur must absorb
many germs of disease, and tend to
prevent the spread of epidemics.
The Maluva tree of central India
(bassia latifolia) bears flowers which
are now being exported to Europe for
their. sugar, of which they contain
more than half their weight. The
tree resembles the oak, and "a single
specimen sometimes bears a ton of
flowers.
In recent experiments in Paris it
was shown that Il human body Of
average size could be entirely burned
in a common stove in forty hours,
without djsagreeable smell. This is
taken as an argument in favor of Gre
nation, as it shows that the process
need not be expensive.
Of at least a dozen fishes having
electric organs, the electric eel Of South
America is the most powerful. 1t
reaches a length of six feet, and is
provided with a pair of batteries, con-
tanning some hundred minute nerve
supplied cells, which {hlbit the same
phenomena as artiiciaIh4etteries.
A microscopic, Mr.. G%tBscer Moore,
has shown that the RsSatria which
produce or accompanyIF'sNeatin of
the feet" are identical Nth G use pro-
ducing chemical action ikethe s>E. In

A new French experiment. consists
in placing two similar bli4k paper
~fgures-two crosses, for exaR ple,quite
closely together, at about tn 1ie inches
from the eyes. When 50 h. before
a sheet of white paper. threa6eparate
crosses will be seen. The bhenom-

The Opelousas courier., 1885-10-03
yy.e Oao,. of the Havae.a.

Going from New England to a wes-
tern state many years ago, the writer
was struck with the difference between
the two localities in the haying season.
In the older states the air at haying
time is redolent of the most delightful
fragrance, making it a pleasure to be
out of doors. At haying time in the
western locality there was only a
clean, weedy odor, quite unlike that
to which we had been accustomed.
In looking into the reason for this
lack of pleasant odor at haying, we ex-
amined the hay. and. while all the
usual grasses were present. we could
find no trace of the s~weet.cented yer
nal grass, anthoxanthum odoratum. SO
common in eastern meadows. In 1T
self this grass has little value. Indeed
it's chief merit lies in it odor. This is
developed as the heritage dries, and a
few spears Of this grass will impart
its fragrance to a large mass OF hay
This grass should always form a part
of a mixture for seeding a lawn.

DESIGN for Cnrnets.

In the School of Design, in South
K%ensington, there are several quota
lions, which are regarded as automatic,
and they unequivocally direct the eff
forts of the pupils. The following is
the rule upon carpet design:
l. The surface of a carpet, serving
as a ground to support all objects,
should be quiet and negative, without
strong contrast of either forms or
rolors.
2. The leading forms should be so
disposed as to distribute the pattern
over the whole floor, not pronounced
either in in the direction of breadth or
length, all cup and down. treatments
being erroneous.
3. The decorative forms should be
fat, without shadow or relief, whether
derived from ornament or. direct from
flowers or foliage.
a. In color the general ground
should be negative, low in tone, and
inclining to the tertiary hues.-Scien-
