The First Flag In Richmond.

Charles Wheaton. retired captain
United States army, referring to a nag
which was floated in Detroit on last
Memorial Day by Captain Foster, says
there is an error with crediting Captain
Fosters flag with being the first Ameri-

tain Foster said the flag was floating
from the steamer Commodore Perry, as
she led the advance for the fleet up
the James river and into Richmond on
April 3, 1866. Captain Wheaton says the
Confederates evacuated Richmond on
the night Of April 2, 1865, and that

From the New York Advertiser.

llhAs
From the New York Advertiser.
The recent marriage of the widow Of p.
T. Barnum to a wealthy Greek gentleman
has occasioned some comment. Americans
who hate to see American. women giving
their hands in marriage to foreigners Of
wealth and position viii be surprised to
learn that Mrs. Barnum is not an Amer-
can. but an Englishwoman, and that she
has never been very much in sympathy
with either the United States as a country
or the Americans as a people. A gentle
man who knew the late 2. I. Barnum in
timately during his lifetime was speaking
yesterday of the marriage OF the great
Snowman to the woman who has so recent
ly united her fortune with that of the
wealthy Greek He tells me that 1t was
always a settled theory with Barnum that
people liked 70 be humbugged. and, If his
acquisition during his lifetime of several
distinct fortunes may be taken as an indl-
cation, the facts sustain this theory Few
people would imagine that even he could
carry his theory so far in secureing for
wife the estimable lady who became his
widow.
Barnum was Mayor of Bridgeport and a
widower. He was lonesome, and his beau
tiful home, Waldemere, on the shore of
Long Island Sound, was not much visited
except by sight-seers. He became interest
ed in the beautiful daughter Of John Fish
of Southport, England a retired manufac-
turer, and solicited her hand in marriage.
Barnum was well advanced in years, and
knew his fame as the prince Of showmen
was not sufficient to win the prize. In fact,
that fame might have hurt his suit more
than helped it, for Miss Fish greatly dis
liked the notoriety attached to the great
est show on EARTH" and after she mar
ried its owner always managed to hold
herself aloof from the publicity her hus-
band loved so well. But the old showman's
knowledge of the English love for official
celebrity led him to play a winning card
He had his photograph taken, with Waldo
mere as background. The picture repre-
sented him seated in a snowy landau, har-
messed to four beautiful black horses, his
coachman on the box and two footmen up
behind. Under the photograph were the
words Lord Mayor of Bridgeport" A
copyof this picture was forwarded TO Miss
Fish, and Barnum always thought it did
the business"
Mrs. Barnum probably never regretted,
If she ever knew the little trick that had
been played on her. Life at Waldemere
became all gayety after her advent and
there was coming and going of distinguish
ed people continually. Barnums will pro-
vided very literally for his widow Besides
an income Of $4,000 annually for life and
$4,000 in cash he bequeathed to her Waldo
mere, the name of which she changed to
Marina, and considerable other real es-
tate. She thoroughly enjoyed her good for
tune, spending great deal of her time in
riding, driving and walking with all the
fondness Of an English woman for out-of-
door life and devoting an hour or two
daily to her piano. She is an exceptionally
clever woman and has done considerable
writing for periodicals., both in England
and America.
