the work, although every sailor ex-

Mrs. Feldman is a Hebrew and natur-
ally preferred that her daughter should
select one Of the worthy young men OF
that race for a husband.
But the young people thought they
were very much in love, and went to
Binghamton, where they were married.
Upon their return to this city the groom
was arrested at the instance of his
mother-in-law and after langulshing in
Jail for a short time, was released and
with his bride went to Miflin avenue
to reside.
day his wife went before Alderman
Millar and swore out a warrant for her
husbands arrest, alleging that he beat
her with a leather strap. He was re-
quired to furnish bail for his appear

to hear him" 1t VIII be remembered
that at thar day Mr.. Bright was tho
most conspicuous figure in England.
Marmaduke went, and during his
speech Marmaduke says that Bright
stopped, and, changing his line of re-
marks, said A: Mr.. Speaker, if our
klnsfOlk on the other side of the At
lantic settle their civil war satisfac-
torily and get back together in peace,
in forty years there will not be u
gun fired i'm the world without their
consent" This statement at that day
seemed prepOsterous ard none but
man with Brights comprehensive mind
could have dared 10 make such an as
sertion to go before the world 1t has
been but thirty-fivc years since
Mr. Bright made that statement,
and yet events have happen-
pened in the last few months which
give TO Mr.. Brights words the spirit
of prophecy, ana no one would now
hesitate to reproduce it. Colonel Birch
asked Marmaduke how he felt as he
listened to such remarks from the then
greatest man in England, as to the
future of the American people, when
ne was engaged in breaking up that
great country. Marmaduke admitted
that it gave him uneasiness of mind in
ccrnc ction with his own conduct, and
that for the first time he began to
realize the wonderful power and influ-
cuce which the American people were
Go have on the destinies of the world,
aud added, with tremor in his voice:
Like all other Southern men, am
glad that the Almighty has preserved
US fer purposes Of His own, which will
some day be unveiled before the
world"

JOHN BRIGHTs PROPHECY.
In Forty Years There Wouldn't Be a
Gun Fired in the World Without
Our Consent.

From the Kansas City Journal.
Colonel Birch tells In a Plattsburg
paper of the following conversation
he had thirty years ago with Colonel
Vincent Marmaduke and its applica-
tion to present conditions is such that
we give it TO the public. Every Mis-
sourian knows that Colonel Marm-
aduke. like his brother was a decided
Confederate, and during the war he
was a bearer of dispatches from MIR.
Davis TO MIR. Bacon, who represented
the southern confederacy in England.
Marmaduke says that one evening Mr..
Mason said to him:
Mr.. Marmaduke. John Bright is to
make a speech tonight in the house OF
commons, and think il would be 10

sumable that one Of the two necessary
fatal shots were first fired.
