Lord Nelson's Canadian Love Episode.
Leslie's Weekly.

A pretty little romance gives Nelson's
memory a sentimental interest in Canada.
During his service at Quebec, in 1852, when
he was but twenty-four years of age, he
became infatuated with beautiful Cana
dian girl, Mary Simpson, daughter of q
great Canadian merchant of the period AT
the time of Nelson's visit she was but six
teen years old, marvelously beautiful and
witty. On the 18th of October, 1882. Lord
Nelson's ship, the Albemarle was ready to
sail and he had a very sad and tender
parting with Mary Simpson and went down
the St. Lawrence to board the man-of-war.
The next morning arrived and the Abe
marie did not heave anchor. and Captain
Nelson was seen coming back to Quebec
in a boat. A friend of Nelson's. a man
prominent in Quebec at the time, espied him
and asked him what had happened. Nelson
is quoted as having said: Il find 1t abso-
lutely impossible to leave this place with
out again waiting upon her whose society
has so much added 10 it's charms. and lay
ing myself and my fortune at her feet"
Nelson's friend protested against such a
rash act and told him that. situated as
you are at present. your utter ruin viii in
evitably follow ',rhen let IL follow re-
piled Nelson. earnestly. for am resolved
to do it," But despite his intentions. the
stronger viii of his friend prevailed, and
he was fairly carried back to his ship and
forced to leave behind the girl he loved.
and Ii was many years before he gave up
the hope OF possessing her. for Nelson never
returned to Canada, and Mary Simpson died
in spinsterhood.

TROUBLE AyEI,TED.

The Virginian shares with the Lowell
News the opinion that the country is
indebted to the Democrats in Congress
for their promptness in frightening the
Republicans from carrying out scheme
which might have upset the country,
and made no end Of trouble had it once
been started. This scheme was the con-
tcmplated objection to the counting OF
the vote OF South Carolina when Con-
gress assembled in joint convention to
count the electoral votes, by the negro
member Of the House from that State.
Just as soon as the intention TO make
this objection was known, the Demo-
Gratis in Congress Informed the Republi-
cans that If the objection was made and
sustained by either branch Of Congress
they might as well abandon all idea OF
lnaugurating Mckinley, and that the
count Of the electoral votes would not be
allowed to proceed. AS soon as the Re
publican leaders ascertaned that tho
Democrats were In dead earnest they re-
pudiated the scheme, and put all the
responsibility upon that fool-nigger,"
who was made to announce that he had
changed his mind about Directing to
