Feb. as. 1870.1 "uu nr." Are you tired of hearing about her? I have to-night to tell you the saddest and stateliest story yet. To begin at the beginning: A lady the height of the Medieean Vanns, voluptuously developed, with a grace in her carnage that has inspired terrible passion, ar istocratic hands and feet, plain, plaited hair, eyes of fire, and melancholy and passionate memories; a skin like a Spamab senorita, and the voice of a cultivated English woman—such is Mrs. D ; in Southern patois, a “white niggerP As calmly as I can, with every nerve quiver ing under the lost outrage her life of outrages has received, let me tell yon her story. She is the offspring of one of those un natural passions which formed the atmosphere of boudoir, os well se cabin, in the South be fore the surrender. Her lather was a negro. Her mother was pure Virginian, is yet before the world a maiden lady, and her name is one of the few Southern names which will be kept historic, by its conspicuous connection with radical Republicanism. If I were to write it here, it would be at once recognised sea name which has been more than once printed in cap- itals in the Woman’s Journal while it was the agitator, and which is mentioned from the Golden Gate to Boston Harbor with respect, not unmingled with that passionate sympathy, human nature, at its average development, has with human nature at its noblest “Now, yon would sooner expect to find the amorous tone and glow of Pyscbe's eyes be neath the magnificent, pom brow of Artemis, than unlawful passion in the renowned and vir tuous Miss M ; and I am not sure but that I am among those who believe that the secret moment when a long time ago this infant soul was gifted with day, was a moment rather pyschichsl than physical. At least, I insist, if there is any embrace of which the world is called upon to believe this, it is the embrace that created that love child whose lace yet is the face of beanty, bnt whose soul is the soul of despair.,. At seventeen, Mary, such was the name of the child, possessed not only a mind carefully trained by her mother, with a training thr.t surpassed the schools, fbut also marvelous beauty ; wit, which .became too often venom nnder the sting of a passionate temper, hers by inheritance, and all the attractions of ac complishments and a refined politeness. It is strange that Mr. Woodbury, who is announced as a regular correspondent of The Constitution, whose Proprietors we pre- tome pay him liberally for his services, should thus save hie raciest eflhaions for a Boston journal, and then justify this strange prefer ence by an assumption that no paper in this section (not even The Constitution) would open its oolumns to a stosy at once so truthful and thrilling 1 We indeed bear (by grapevine) some amusing gneracs (by those who claim to be posted) as to who “Miss Lou” is; also a to theparmxaepropriar of “Mrs D."

Freedmen's schools in Chattanooga, but persecutions still followed her, and citizens of Chattanooga—I know (Um—inflamed by her beauty and apparent helplessness, instigated troubles in her school until she was compelled to withdraw. She was insulted doily by these creatures in human guise, and informed if she did not take their protection they would starve her. She, however, obtained work aa a general house servant; and more recently, as chambermaid on a Tennessee river boat.

As she neared the prison which one earning from the levee is compelled to pass, the turnkey, now city marshal, camo up to her to arrest her. He had no warrant and no pre text, save in his own words at the time, she is “Too d—d lady-like for a nigger.” She resisted; a crowd began to collect He tried to force her into the prison doors and called for asaistsnee. She did not acres it is only in the early days of tortnre that men scream—but she struggled—her hair torn down, her decent dress was driggled and polled in places to tatters, one of her teeth was knocked ont, for a moment she broke away and sprang into a wagon. “Drive on for God's sake P she said, then, to the rabble: “Gentlemen, where are your wives, sisters and mother?

She was interrupted with curses; one seized her by the hair, another sprang into the wagon and kicked her like a besst She was dragged to the sidewalk, bleeding and hunting. A Chattanooga school master can testify to this, he stood by, smiling, when she was locked in the cell. The melee was over, and the crowd of two hundred souls—meetly brutes—was slowly dispersing, when they rallied and gathered the tall, slim form with well-known eye-gloss ed brow and gloved hands, worn with soffe.- ingin the very pride of her brilliant woman hood, who approached the jail-doors with two policemen, and demanded the body of Mrs. D . It was denied her. ‘I will have her out,” said “Miss Ln" with The version given by Mrs. Foster is as fol lows : rtiy after her marriage, Dr. Lighthill vil- lified and did not scrapie to persecute her on every possible occasion. While herself and husband were in Atlanta, Dr. IaghthiU had caused a woman living in New York to make affidavits that said woman was her husband’s wife; that he had subsequently written a let- ter to her husband accusing her of infidelity end improper intimacy with a person with whom she never did, nor would, nnder any circumstances whatever, associate. For this reason, and for the infamous letter he had written to her husband with a view of pro ducing their separation, in which he finally succeeded, she then vowed that if ever he came within her reach she would give him a cow- hiding. She heard last Wednesday that he was in Murfreesboro, where he was expected to re main several days. Having purchased a cow hide and two pistols, one of which she carried in her pocket and the other in her belt, she vrent to Murfreesboro. Fortunately for him, he happened not to be there. She returned to Nashville, and, having heard Friday that Dr. IaghthiU had gone back to Murfreesboro, the also returned there that afternoon. On her arrival at that place she took a carriage and ordered the dnver to drive about twenty above the ladies’ entrance of the City . The driver did as directed.

Why, I can hardly tell, for they had no legal consequences to fear. It most have been, somehow, a species of the glorious inevitable triumph of nerve, or spirit over brute force. Isn’t it Matthew Browne who somewhere tells the story: “Yon young rascal," said the old gentleman to the rash little boy in the street “if that cab had run over you, where would you have been then? ” And the boy answered, -‘Up behind, a-tokin’ of his number.” Ladies ham told me that even in society there is a certain cool magnetism about this he sent her, through the poet-office, periodica’-, I handsome, stately ‘Miss Ln,” that is rafted Gen.

I was on Pennsylvania avenue, and attended a soldier s lair. There was a sword put up, one of those innocent yet ingenious devices by which stingy men are made liberal for good purposes— there was an election of a sword for tne most popular General of the army. There was a long list of noble names inscribed, with the number of votes each had received marked op- S xrite his name.

He is buried in the door-way about midway between his late residence and the street Everything around the residence and tomb is very plain and unpretending. I met Mrs. Polk in her yard ana was cordially invited to view her late husband's premises. She is a very sociable lady, and she made numerous inquiries about Ohio men who were in Con gress during Mr. Polk's administration, and flmnfTg the number was our old friend Hon. Henry St John. She had not heard of his death, and jrma grieved to hear that he was no more. She picked me a bouquet of flowers which I hope I may aave until I get home. As President Polk had no children, he willed his residence to the State of Tennessee as o Governor's residence at the death of his wife. It is close to the capital building, and is al ready looked upon and visited by strangers as public property. LABOR Ilf CALIFORNIA. A Surfeit. From the San Fnmdeco Alta, March 29.] We may soon expect to see numbers of la borers coming from the East in search of work; they should understand that the supply of un skilled labor in California, at present prices, exceeds the demand. Fanners, with capital enough to buy land and open farms, can do well; and many brandies of manufacture might be established here with a certainty that they would be profitable in a few years, if not immediately, mat business is in a transition condition, and prices have not accommodated themselves to fade changes. We see no pros pect of steady employment for the laborers now in this State for months to come. Our rates of wages are nearly double those of Iowa and Chicago, with which we come into compe tition, and our industry languishes because our competitors have an increased advantage over us. Population cannot increase nor land rise much in value till wages decline, so that steady employment can be given to all comers. Senator Bcvdi nt Plymowtl* Church. In New York on Sunday morning the colored Senator Bevels went to Plymouth church, (Beecher’s.) At the close of his sermon in the morning, and when giving notice of the meet ing to ratify the fifteenth .amendment at the Brooklyn Academy of Music for Me nd:iy even ing, Mr. Beecher said that he was grateful to God for having spared hie life to eoe the day on which the colored race could claim and ex ercise all the privileges and rights of citizens of the United States. A voice had gone forth which gave them liberty, and the same voice to-day invests them with the glorious privilege of the franchise. Ten years since they held the place of slaves, fearing to look upon the bright face of the sun in the great city of New York; but now, without a shadow of fear, they rejoiced publicly over the procla mation of their rights and privileges as citizens of this great country. The church was unusu ally crowded at both morning and evening services.

Not admitted to the society of the place, on account, no less of the traces of her parentage in her skin, than of her profession, what won der that she retained with relief to the society of any companion whose conversation was on a plane with her own cultivated mind, and whoso bearing, even to her watchful sensitive ness, seemed never conscious of the presence of base blood in tho cheek, which anon could crimson under his gaze. Her lover saw his advantage, and pressed it with that remorselessness which characterizes the serpent and the seducer alone of creeping things. The opinion of tho dull society of the piece, to which he could readily see her va_ superiority, was nothing to him who won. shortly go away, as he had come, a stranger and ho became more and more assiduous. Ho was constantly in her society. When alarmed sho would request him to intermit his atten tions, which tended to compromise her not only in tho village, but also, which concerned her more, among tho colored people, accus tomed to associate only base motives with such companionship, bis answering would surround her with an atmosphere of truth about rights of friendship so pleasant and so pure, that she could not perceive its poison only arose from tho locality in which it was breathed. Nevertheless, the same purity of soul which rendered her susceptible to his intellect, ren dered her almost impervious to his lust. He sought a receptacle, he found a soul. And the soldier was more than once vexed to con fess to himself that his evil wooing was more difficult, and perhaps more hopeless, than it would have been even with any ono of those native Georgians whose eyes adored his hand some face, even if they could not understand his quotations. Half in angry disappointment, half in the presence of an undefined, mysteri ous, almost awful apprehension he was not analtic enough to discover, he took a great oath he would conquer her, and, one day, not as he had calculated at first, offering a safe and secret contract, which he would have ob served to the letter, but in a far more intoxica ting paroxysm of love, he threw himself at her feet and told her she had awakened tremen dous passion which she only could gratify. Mary listened to this wild confession, which was at once her shame and his despair, in an agony which we men can only know as we know her love, by hearsay. She well nigh fainted, and was only recovered to a sense of her danger—a danger heightened by the fact that at this resistless moment she, for the first time, learned that she loved him with all her nature—by his clinging embrace of her, and by the hot kisses he rained upon her hair, her eyes and her lips. She sprang from his embrace, and held him at bay with her thin, light, undefended hands, nerved like those of the sinless knight with the strength of ten, for one moment, and then, choking with pain and intense shame, fled like a bird. In a frenzy of remorse he pursued her, humbled himself in her presence, when after days he gained it, told her he loved her not in sense bnt in soul, that he could not live away from her or with her contempt—all burning words that may bring reparation. In spite of her love she discouraged his addresses as she had before rejected him. He persevered, honorably, purely wooing her, and—they were married. Heaven pronounced no curse upon this mar riage. The curse came from tho society in which they lived—a very different quarter. The calumnies and suspicions of the commu nity soon rendered life insupportable, and D 1 resigning, accompanied his wife into Northern Georgia. Hero he obtained some rough work, and she continued to teach in one of the Atlanta schools, under the auspices of the Bureau. The couple were chased by scan dal, the school was taken from her; Ins work from him. They prayed, wept and consulted together. It was plain that Southern antipa thies, to which Northern laws were porcelain, would not permit Caucasian and negro, (if the faintest infusion of inferior blood names the race) live as a man and wife. They agreed that thev would separate, and, for both wero by this time wretchedly poor, earn money with which to go North or west- Mrs. D camo to Chattanooga and opened a small school, into which she intro duced with Taro facility some of the more modem methods of teaching. Tho young husband engaged himself as a day laborer on the Nashville and Chattanooga Railroad. After a time he yielded to a natural, bnt per haps, at the time, a weak, impulse to be with Ills wife, and one Saturday, a few weeks ago, he sought her presence. He remained with her in the negro hut where sho was. hoarding until Monday morning, when he relumed to his work. They informed the negro tfcr s they were married, but his suspicions were awaken ed, he confided the matter to others, it was noised about; two white citizens of Chatta nooga —I know them—went up to "look her over? she was appiehended and cast into the prison, whence deliverance was promised her by the turnkey, only on insulting terms. The time for trial came, when, without lawyer mid without friends, she plead her own case, exhib- ing and resistless. Perhaps it may be a charm more penetrative that even that with which, in the New Idyls, Vivien conquered Merlin in the mazy wildwood of Brocilande. Although the above crowning of outrages to her whose very birth, alas! was outrage, hap pened—no, resulted logically—Iasi Thursday, there has not been tho least mention of it in the Chattanooga city papers. And there will not be, in any paper, save (his. It is hushed.

Charles J. Woodbubt. Atlanta, National Hotel, Jan. 20, 1870. A WOMAN ON HER MUSCLE. Dr. E. Hanford Llglitbill Publicly Cow- bided by a Notorious Courtesan—A Mur freesboro Mob Cheer Her On—Disgraceful Scenes. From tbo Nashville Banner.] The little city of Murfreesboro was thrown into a terrible state of excitement Friday eve ning, over an affair of which the following statements are made by the parties chiefly con cerned : DR. E. BUXFOBD LIOHTHILL's STATEMENT. Hr. Lighthill called at the Banner office yesterday, and stated to one of the editors that, about 6 p. in., Lost Friday,he was en gaged with a patient in his office at the City Hotel, Murfreesboro, when word was brought him that a lady was waiting outside who was exceedingly anxious to soe him. He intima ted that the call could not be attended to just then, but that he would be out as soon as he hod gotten through with the matter then in hand. He had hardly finished speaking be fore a tall woman, whom he at once recog nized as Mrs. Emma Hines Foster, rushed into the office, cried, "You are the scoundrel who has separated me from my husband,” and commenced lashing him with a cowhide. The Doctor did not know how to act nnder the embarrassing circumstances. He could not strike a woman even in self-defense, and yet the vigorous Assault she made upon him was more than he could bear, so he hastened from the of fice along the hall into the dining room, where the boarders were then taking supper. He was followed by Mrs. Footer, who appealed to and secured the sympathies of those present by stating that the Doctor was a vile wretch, who mid come between her and her husband. She seized him by the hair and made another assault upon him—he, at the time, striving only to protect himself and making no effort to injure her. Finally, a constable came in and arrested Mrs. Foster. While the case was being investigated before ’Squire Clark, and the doctor was off his guard, Mrs. Foster suddenly turned upon him and struck him under the left eye with—as was subsequently stated to the doctor—brass knuckles. The blow caused a severe swelling and resulted in an aggravated case of what is known as a "black eye.” Dr. Lighthill complains that his assailant was fined only three dollars, and that the feeling in the crowd appeared to be entirely in her favor, while he had committed no offense whatever either against her or any body else, and was acting only on the defen sive. He further declares that "Dr.” Jerome B. Foster, whom Mrs. Foster claimed aa her husband, and whom she captured and carried away from Murfreesboro, is a worthless, un principled fellow, whom he had repeatedly dis charged from his service; that he refused to have anything to do with Foster after he had made the notorious marriage here about this time last year, bnt that he came across Fos ter in New Orleans last September, ut terly destitute, and was persuaded to re-engage him; that Foster was to remain in New Or leans while the doctor paid a business visit to Louisville, but that Foster, instead of so doing, came back to Nashville and went to keeping bar for his wife at the Half-Way House; that he again met Foster about February 1 in New York without a cent and hardly a r.ig to his back; that Foster told him that he and his Nushville woman had agreed upon a divorce; that he would be a reformed mnu for the fu ture, and that he had already returned to Louise, the mother of the two children, who was living in Brooklyn; that he therefore took Foster for a last trial, but found ont after they had reached Savannah that the rascal was cor responding with both women; that when they recently got to Atlanta, Foster was arrested for an advertising debt to the Constitution newspaper, and would have been sent to jail if the doctor had not secured his release; that Foster is a consummate scoundrel, has been systematically deceiving his benefactor all the time, has stuck to the Nashville Mrs. F. only to get a support from her, while his affections tians, she told the driver to go to Dr. Light- hill and tell him that a lady, an invalid, desired to see him. The driver having taken the meesage to Dr. Lighthill, the latter made particular inquiries regarding her ap pearance, and told the Jehu to tell her that he would be down to see her within a short time, and that he was then occupied with a patient She had fervently prayed that the time might come when she could avenge her wrongs* and when she found him within her grasp she be came greatly excited, grew impatient of the de lay, and involuntarily following out the dic tates of her feelings, which had now become wrought up to the highest pitch, she request ed the driver to lead her to his office. Sbe opened the door and when she had presented herself Dr. Lighthill looked aghast She to’: . him, "you’ve had your day and now HI have mine,” drew the cowhide from the folds ol her dress and struck him rapidly about the face. At this treatment he turned and ran out of the door, closing it after him, and ran as fast as his legs would carry him through a long hall she at his heels, into the dining-room where he called upon all those eating sapper, "for God sake to save him from this woman,” and to keep her off When she got into the dining-room she eanght him by the hair of the head, backed him up against the wall, and, while she whipped him well, told the astonished guests why she did. Not satisfied with using r.he cowhide, she strode him a violert blow in the face with her fist, and, in doing so,'pealed the skin off of one of her knuckles. An officer then came to her and told her that, although Dr. Lighthill might have deserved such pun ishment, he would be compelled to arrest her. She retired into a room, which Dr. Lighthill shortly after visited with the intention of pacifying her. She could not resist the temp tation to go at him again, and on striking him several times with the cowhide he fled out of the door { and as he went she increased the vclocity of his going by a severe and well-di rected kick upon the seat of his unmentiona bles. The little affair raised considerable excite ment about the hotel, and as the officer ac companied her from that establishment all the ladies cried out at the bare idea of a wo man being arrested, while the crowd greeted her with enthusiastic cheers. The Magistrate’s office was packed and jammed with a tremen dous crowd, all eager to witness the investiga tion. Dr. lighthill desired the case postpon ed, but she persisted in having a trial then and there; that he had no right to ask a con tinuance for the reason that he had not caused her arrest. On her making this statement the crowd cried, "let the investigation go on,” and all sorts of other expressions, mingled with applause. On tho examination of thfc^f&Kt witness ho stated that he did not see her strike Dr. Lighthill, whereupon Dr. Lighthill ptft his hand to his face and said to the court, T.: ’ere at mine eye. Does dish looks like she didn’t strike me?” At this explanation tho crowd burst out into a big laugh, and many cried ont, " Let’s take him to the creek! to the creek! to the creek! let him be ducked.” The Magis trate fined her five dollars. Dr. Lighthill hav ing then put in some of his insinuations re garding her, she whipped him in the presence of the court, and the assemblage cried out, "Give it to him! Wr 11 pay your fine!” they shouted quite loudly. Dr. Lighthill approach ed her twice after that, and she whipped him twice, which seemed greatly to amuse the spec tators, who made the room ling with their deaf ening applause. She had the sympathy of the crowd, but she didn’t whip him for their ap probation. It was for the gratification of a sweet revenge. The magistrate promptly fined her three dollars for each of her subsequent offenses, which she as promptly paid. She at one time took Dr. Lighthill by the ear and commanded him to pay one of the fines, bnt not with any real intention to make him do it. It was for his humiliation and shame. The whole affair was of very short duration. When she had stopped paying fines and the matter had ended, it was finished, so faros she was concered, forever after. Dr. IaghthiU caused her to pledge an officer that she would not molest him when he got on the train at three o’clock yesterday morning for Nashville, and Dr. LigbthiU therefore came down to Nashville. There was no use of her making any such pledge, as she did not intend to mo lest him further. She said that Dr. Lighthill sent her a note yesterday morning, in which he told her she would regret the manner in which she had acted. She answered him that if ever he dared to write her another note she would "repeat Murfreesboro ” Only a Calico Dress. BY MART W. STANLEY GIBSON. "Now do be reasonable, Jane. What if it is bnt a little thing ?

Good heaven! How could he ever learn to live without her? Out from among the flacid cows dashed Farmer Webb, and away io went with long strides to the village store, where the coveted calico dress was lying. A pretty thing enough, with its snowy ground and delicate sprigs of rosebuds; just tho thing to set off Jane's rosy cheeks, and dark bright eyes and jetty hair. He bought it, he paid for it, and back he went to the farm house to find Jane. She was sitting in tho kitchen, in her own favorite chair-—the morning’s work undone, and her head resting on her clasped hands. He heard her sob—he saw a bright tear steal through the slender fingers, and down the jreat, clumsy fellow went beside her, on his cnee’s, package in hand. "Jane, what is it? Don’t enr, Jane. You shall have anything on earth that you want, if you won’t cry.” "Oh, I don’t want anything !” she sobbed. Tm ready to do withont everything, if I must. But it is hard to work day after day for your good, Joriah, and then to be told—” "That a new calico dress has just come home for you,” he cried out in a trembling voice, wiping his own tears away with the brown pa per parcel. "Jane, I didn't mean to be cross— and just look here.” He sent the brown paper in every direction as he spoke, and the snowy, rose-sprigged cal ico fell over her knees in graceful folds. "Oh, Josiah—you dear, good, dear Josiah she exclaimed. "And you really thought of me like this, and didn’t mean one word of Ml you said! What a good-for-nothing little wretch I was to doubt youl” She smiled brightly at him through her tears, and flinging her anus around his neck, gave him a kiss worth five thousand calico dresses, all told. And home was bright again, and happy, and the new dress was made and worn for many a pleasant day thereafter. Bnt Josiah Webb never forgot the lesson it had silently preached to him; and he is to-day a fonder and a better husband because of that trifling thing—only a calico dress. ATLANTA MEDICALCOLLEGE.

Board in good families and private boarding houses, the McFarland case. A Scrap of Biography—'Theory of the De fense. From the New York Star.] The counsel for the defense rely largely upon the effect the following theory will produce when ingeniously worked up before the jury: Mrs. McFarland was a Boston girl of hum ble parentage. She had few advantages. She u angry light in her blue eyes. "ITfnot not ask it again, if I never have another thing to wear in my life, Josiah! I might have had dresses enough, goodness knows—" she checked herself suddenly, but in a moment added, "Only a calico .dress! And to be re fused! You get your house-work done very cheap, Joriah. A hired girl would cost you more than many calico dresses in the course of the year! ” With a bitter smile she left the room; and Josiah Webb, muttering something that was not exactly a blessing, snatched his hat and darted out of the house into his farm yard, where, for half an hour or so, he confided his sentiments regarding womankind in general, and his wife in particular, to a select audience of a dozen cows. And then Mr. Webb began to cool down, and to see some reason in his wife’s remarks and request, after alL "You get your house-work done very cheap, Josiah !” It was the keen truth of the remark that had stung him so keenly. "Well, it was cheap! To any hired girl, capable of doing the doily work that Jane turned off so readily, he must pay at least ir dollar and a half per week. Would the work be done then as Jane did it ? Would all things be so neat and clean and orderly about his house as now? Would there be need of watching eyes and anxious hearts to see that the hired girl earned the money which was paid? Was there such need now? What did Jane do, by the way ? Got break fast, washed dishes, swept, made beds, and put the house in apple-pie order from cellar to garret, before twelve each day.

And for all this he gave her what? She had asked a little advance of wages—only a calico dress— and had been refused! Too bad! too bad! What if Jane should be taken sick with the fever that was flying about, and die and leave him! Could he spare the money for her coffin and her shroud? Why, what, what could lave put that dread ful thought into his head? Jane ill—dying— RE0WINE & FOX’S COLUMN. SIX GREAT REMEDIES OF THE AGE.

SMYTH, ap!3wtds United States Marshal. earned her living as ’a sewing girl, and was thus employed when Mr. McFarland formed her acquaintance. A mutual attachment sprang up between tho parties. On Mr. Mo- Farlond’s side the attachment ripened into the deepest love, which years of married life, al ienation, desertion, and the terrible tragedy connected with the case have not cooled. Mr. McFarland took the young lady from her men ial employment, educated her, taught her elo cution, fitted her for the stage, developed in her those accomplishments which have brought forth such bitter firuits. His domestic life seemed a happy one, and there was no jar or discord till the removal of the parties to New York. While residing in the city Mrs. McFarland became intimate with a class of socialists known as free lovers. Soon after the ac quaintance and association with this class commenced, a coolness seemed to spring up between the husband and wife. Mr. McFar land visited the store of a relative where he would sit by the hour with his head on his hand, saying little, but that little had refer ence to the "Free Love Crew,” who had alien ated his wife, and mode her unhappy in her home. It is difficult to tell when the acquain* once commencedbetweenMr. Richardson and Mrs. McFarland. It was two years old before Mr. McFarland had any suspicions that an ur- due familiarity existed between the parties. They boaided at the same house, and had rooms on the same floor. All that McFarland knew was that a literary person occupied a room adjoining his. He had not seen him, and did not know his name. Just before Mrs. McFarland left her hus^ band, certain facts came to his knowledge that disturbed him. He was then informed who the gentleman was that occupied the room near his own. In his absence the doors were thrown open between the rooms. There was no lock on the door at any time. Mrs. McFar land was in and out, took care of the room of Richardson, adorned it with flowers, and kept it in order. The parties went out daily to lunch together. They visited the theater often, and were so much in company as to excite common remark. Taking his wife into her room one evening, McFarland remonstrated with her on the impropriety of her conduct, f.” received the rebuke with apparent good i. .per, and promised to change her course. The ii.: '-and and wife passed the evening to- f ether as McFarland left in the morning for is harness, his wife bestowed on him the usual tokens of affection. He returned at night to find his home de serted. On inquiry, he learned that his chil dren had been sent by Richardson out of the city, he having assumed charge of the house hold. He traced his wife to the house of Mr. Sinclair. Here he was denied admittance.— As a compromise it was decided he should see his wife at a time specified some days hence. In the mean time the parents of Mrs. McFarland came on from Boston. On the day named Mr. McFarland was denied the pnviledge of seeing his wife alone. He knew, he said, that half an hour’s conference would reconcile matters. This was denied him by the parties who had his wife in their keeping. He was ushered into the parlor at Mrs. Sin clair’s, where he found his wife surrounded by Mr. and Mrs. Sinclair, Mr. Cleveland, Mr. Johnson of the Independent, the parents of Mrs. McFarland and others. At such an in terview, of course, nothing could be done.— Mr. McFarland was told that his wife's separ ation was full and final, and that private in terviews would not be allowed. The father of Mrs. McFarland accompanied the husband to his desolate home, and slept with him that night He * comforted him with the assur ance that his daughter would soon be over her freak, and that all would be well with him yet McFarland left his boarding house for other quarters.. When it wm known that McFarland had left his boarding place, Mrs. McFarland went back to her own quarters. She brought with her a young lady, the daughter of the person who was so conspicious in the Richardson McFarland marriage She was introduced and passed off as the affianced bride of Richardson. There could, of course, be no impropriety in Mrs. McFarland residing in the same house, and occupying on adjoining chamber to Rich ardson, if the young lady to whom Mr. Rich ardson was engaged was her companion. On the return of the parties Mr. Richardson was absent. The ladies wished to occupy Mr. Richardson’s room, but this was not allowed. They took special charge of the room, and kept it in readiness for the returning guest whenever he should make his appearance. The manner in which this little scheme and pleasant arrangement came to the knowledge of Mr. McFarland hastened the subsequent tragedy. Before Mr. Richardson's return he wrote a letter to Mrs. McFarland, which was inter cepted by her husband. This letter is in the hands of the defense, and will be produced on thetrioL It reveals the real state of the case. It is bold and defiant, proposing an avowal of the relation between the parties, defying pub lic sentiment, and taking the consequences. It applauds the little arrangement at the boarding house, by which the companion of Mrs. McFarland passed off as a young lady en gaged to the writer. It pronounces the ladies to be "princes in dissembling,” for few could have conceived of so complete a plan to carry out the wishes of the writer by so ingenious a blind. The letter is in the well-known hand writing of Mr. Richardson. It is contended that the divorce in Indiana was kept from McFarland, and that he had no knowledge of even an application for a legal separation un til he heard that the deed was consummated, and that fact come to liis knowledge only a short time before the shooting.

From the Laramie Sentinel.] A little circumstance connected with the late term of the Court comes to our knowledge, which we are inclined to make public, even at the risk of betraying confidence. During the long and tedious Howe murder trial, the jury (of whom one-half were ladies) were not per mitted to separate and go to thei!* homes, but were, under the charge of baitiffa (one lady and one gentleman,) taken to the hotel for heir meals, and lodging was provided for them tu the adjoining parlors, each under the charge of their bailiff And here, every mcr-.ing during the trial, upon rising from tfc:; beds, these ladies kneeled together, and, like hild of Solomon, asked wisdom of God to • - ble them to properly and wisely discharp their new and arduous duties.
