London-, April IS.
Rapidly returning London Is folly oc
cupied by a scandal of the first magnitude.
Tho Marquis ot Anglesey has not been so
unfortunate as to have his wife run away
from him; bat like Byron’s Immortal
Jack Johnson, be has ran away from her.
Just as the Marchioness was about to dine
she received a letter from ber husband
saying that he had lelt Pans for the pres
ent, and ber forever. With that impetu
osity which characterizes the Pagets, the
head ot the family, after being married
to bis present wire for less than two
years, has forsaken her. She (s his third
Wife. The heads of the boose of Paget
have a habit of marrying several wlw£
The ante-penultimate Marquis was msF-
tied three times. It (will be recollected
that tho first Marquis of Anglesey
was the dashing cavalry officer who,
while Etrl of Uxbridge, command
ed the cavalry at the battle of
Waterloo, and lost bis leg there. He sur
vived tho battle nearly forty years and
was famous for bis cork leg, bis bright
blue coats and his bats. The Anglesey
bell-topped bat with a broad and some
what curly brim is still worn by many
dandies of ripe years- Tbe grand old
veteran of Ooranna and other desperate
fights in the Peninsula and hero ol Wa
terloo. after which be was a marqnis, was
a familiar figure in’ London even in my
arly time. His cork leg was a marvel,
and be rode, walked ana dressed like a
“buck” or “blood” of tho first class until
be died. lie was twice married, first, to
Lady Carolina VilUers, by whom he had
eight children and whose marriage with
him was subsequently dissolved, and sec-
- ondly to Lady CbarlottWCadogan, by
whom he bad five more. His first wife sub
sequently married tbe Duke of Argyll. His
eldest son, tbe second Marqnis, was thrice
married, first to Miss Campbell, of Sliaw-
field, secondly to Miss Bagot, and thirdly
to a daughter of Hr. George Burnand
(Mrs. Bond). He was lather or tho late
Marquis, of tbe present incumbent and of
tbe famous beauty Lady Florence Paget,
who, alter being engaged to Mr. Henry
Chaplin, married tbe last Marqnis of
Hastings, tbe “king of the plungers,” In a
sudden and romautic manner. This
lady, who still retains mnch of ber once
splendid beauty of form and face, is now
the wife of.Sir George Chetwynd, one ot
the best looking and best bred men in
England. Tbe third Marqnis, who suc
ceeded in 1800, was only once married
and died in 1880, when he was succeeded
by his half brother, tbe nobleman who
has just ran away from bis wife.
Lord Anglesey, who is forty-seven years
of age, was first married to Miss Norrasn,
who died in 1873. In tho next year be
married Miss Boyd, who died in 1877, and
who bore him a son, the present infant
Earl of Uxbridge. In 1880 be married
the Marchioness, whose story is not with-
cut interest to Americans. She is a cele
brated American belle, being no other
than Miss Minute King, daughter of Mr.
J. T. King, of Sand Hills, Ga. This
"beautiful lady was a widow, having first
married Mr. Henry Wodehoose, tbe
brother of Lord Kimberley, and uncle of
the Lord Wodeliouse whose early career
occasioned some excitement In London a
few years ago. Lord Kimberley’s name
la known ail over tbe world, for be is the
present Secretary of State for tbe colonies,
a post he has previously occupied. Mr.
Henry Wodeliouse, who had filled various
'appointments, was thirty-eight yean
day. Mr. Lyonel Plantagenet Tolie-
mache, eldest son of Mr. W. F.Tolle-
inache, M. P-, and grandson of Lord Tol-
lemache, of Helmingham, was married to
Lady Sybil King, daughter of Robert Ed
ward, seventh Earl ol Kingston. Here be
brave names my masters. The bride Is
tbe only daughter of .the late Lord Kings
ton, who enjoyed the title, like his father,
for a very shoit while. Tbe great estates
of tbe King family in Ireland, worth, till
recently, £40,000 a year, are not held by
lord Kingston, but by the King-Harman
branch of the family, tbe head of which a
few years ago represented Sligo in Parlia
ment as a Conservative Home Baler, a
queer political fish, but a very fine fellow
all round. Lady Sybil has, however, the
advantage of being an only daughter, and
Mr. Lyonel Planlagenet Tollemache, who
Is Just twenty-one years of age, may, if he
survive his seventy-six-year-old grandfa
ther and his forty-nine-year-old father,
become in time Lord Tollemache.
So the Lady Emily Clinton, daughter of
the Duchess of Newcastle, is to be mar
ried to the Prince Pamfill Uoria after ail.
It will be recollected that on the death of
the late Duke of Newcastle (the present
Duke Is a minor) his widow, nee Hope,
married Mr. Holder, whose musical tal
ent is well known. The Duchess of New
castle and Mr. Hohler are among the reg
ular visitors to Nice and Monte Carlo,
where la petite duchesse is one of the so
cial centres, while la duchesse rouge, the
dowager Duchess of Montrose, is the lead
er ot another set. The latter lady owes
ber name to her fashion of wearing her
basbsnd’a (Mr. Crawford’s) colors when
Buchanan, Master Waller, SL Louis, Ste.
Marguerite or the race horses in their sU
bles are likely to win.
To prevent the crying maladresse ot
mentioning these very grande* dames in
tbe same paragraph with other persons I
begin a fresh one. One of my wicked
young fneuds who has just returned from
Paris tells me that a personage who last
season caused a great sensation at
Monaco is now, literally, “shining’’ in
Paris, for he saw her, covered with dia
monds at tbe Renaissance theatre a few
nights ago. This is la comtesse noire, as
she was called last year at Monte Carlo,
a very handsome mulatto, elegantly form
ed and superbly dressed. She is said to
play with extraordinary luck, and to have
peculiar superstitions and inspirations
concerning her gambling speculations.

CALIFORNIA WHEAT.
W hat It Costa the Pacific Ccast Farm
ers .to Kcnd Grain Abroad.
San Yraneiteo Chronicle.
California has continued during the
whole ot the . present season the chronic
old when be married the belle
Georgia. He left her a widow in
the following year. She has enjoyed great
social distinction and popularity during
her residence in England, and but little
astonishment was felt when she became
Marchioness of Anglesey. Unhappily the
marriage has not tamed ont well, and ste
will have to fall back upon her title and
her settlement*. It Is not the duty of a
chronicler of small beer to ap: tiI.’i
praise or blame In such matters. The
friends of the husband say that no Eng-
lishman, “least of all an English noble-
man,” would endure the dictation to
which, as we know, hnsbands cheerfully
submit in the United States; while tbe
sympathizers with her Ladyship, and they
are many, speak of the “false, fleeting,
perjured'’ lancies of the Tagets, and the
deliberate wickedness with which the de
sertion .had been planned. It seems to
tnc “a pretty quarrel as it stands.”
So lar as one can judge, English people
as well as Americans are additionally in
terested in tho affair In consequence of
the iady being an American. Many En
glishmen of rank have married American
wives during tiie last few years. Lord
MamlevUie, heir apparent to llie Duke
dom of Manchester, married the charm
ing Miss Vznaga, and Lady Randolph
Churchill was Miss Jennie Jerome, of
New York City, the daughter of Mr.
Leonard Jerome. Another Paget, as I
mentioned In my last letter, Mrs. Arthur,
wile of Captain Paget, was Miss Stevens
—a charming lady, whose good qualities
were only exceeded in number by tlie of
fers she received. These are only a few
of the well-known instances of Anglo-
American alliances, the rule being in fa
vor i.-f American girls marrying English
men, and not of English giris marrying
Americans. Sir Cuitis Lampson, a
born American, but naturalized
here and created •- baronet, is no
exception to the rule, for Lady Lampoon
is a horn American, and trom Massachu
setts at that. Dollars and coronets seem
to make a very excellent alliance, as a
rule. What English sprigs of nobility re
quire in a bride is that she shall be a
pretty, accomplished and we!I-mannered
girl, with some ready money. Landed
estates here are so hopelessly muddled
with emails and settlements of every kind
that teiy few grandees, excepting such as
the Dukes of Portland, Buccleucb, Nor
folk and Westminster have ready money
ft command. They have broad acres, fine
houses, family pictures and a long pedi
gree, but if they want to spend $100,090
are “brought up ail standing.” So much
is [.pent in frais dc reures- ntalion that
there <s very little of what North Country
rivers call “spending brass.”
Tl;ere was a showy wedding, with
petitors iu the various Importing counties,
she is now at the end of ber victorious
campaign, and with the view of carrying
the war into Africa, shipping a portion of
her wheat surplus to the Mississippi Val
ley aud Australia—her two leading rivals
as exporters. While the States east of the
Rocky Mountains are themselves shippers
this season to tbe extent of about 79,000,-
000 bushels as compared with about 50,-
000,000 bushels from the whole of this
coast, sample parcels of California wheat
are now to be seen in every section of
the country from Texas to Maine and
from Minnesota to Florida. That samples
oi California flour are not equally plenti
ful all over the continent is simply owing
to the silly and eccentric policy of the
railroad which, instead of discriminating,
if at all, in favor of the manufactured
article, actually discriminates against it,
to the great loss and injury of the State.
In the same way Australia, while herself
a large exporter, la now confronted by
shipments of wheat,persteam and s ail,from
this coast. Nor is it at all unlikely that
California wheat, which is now so plenti
fully distributed over the continent of Eu
rope, has found ita way into the Czar’s
dominions. Novel as such a state of
things must appear, the logical result of
greatly underbidding a seller is to com
pel him to become a purchaser, and this is
what is now occurring simultaneously iu
the Western States and Australia, Per
haps the only largo exporting country en
tirely beyond the reach of California is
India, which is also trying to get up a rep
utation as a cheap seller. But since India
has never yet shipped to an exporting
country, although Australia is nearer to
ber than to California, she is still very far
behind in tbe race. Instead of entering
into a fierce competition with raw mate
rial, like wheat, India acts more wisely in
supplying California with bagging, from
which sbo draws two profits—one for the
jute cultivator and one for the manufac-
iturar.
THE WORLD’S DEFICIENCY.
Curiosly enough while the bearing In-
of fiuence of California has made
cheap in Europe, it has no preceptible ef
fect In tho Eastern States and Australia.
While wheat sella in this State at $1.60
•a cental, it commands an average of $2.35
a cental in Eastern and Australian ports.
Hence California competition, Instead of
lqjuring the tarmere of the Northwest
and of Australis, hts fallen exclusively
on ship-owners, who in some cases
lately ha7e carried wheat across tbe At
lantic for nothing at all, and In ono or
two instances for even less than nothing
—steamers having to pay a premium for
the privilege of carrying It as btllast—
while from South Australia the freights
just now are reported to be only one-
I fourth the ordinary rates. In fact from
the standpoint of tbe Western and Aus
tralian farmers California could have
obtained a very high price for her surplus
this season and in fixing an extremely low
one has done herself tm Irreparable in
jury. At the beginning of the campaign
the world’s wheat deficiency was estimat
ed at from 25,000,000 to 50,000,000 bush
els, and although this shortage has since
been partly made up by India, a real de
ficiency still exists which can only be
made good by entirely exhausting the re
serves or drawing prematurely on tho new
crop. Shipments from Atlantic ports,
whldh aggregated 150,000,000 Intbetwol
preceding years, will this season not ex
ceed the original estimate of 70,000,000
bushels. The Australian estimate was
also within the mark. The wheat crop
of the seven colonies, which
36,346.010 bushels in I860, and
in 18S1, amonnts to only 27,000,000 bush
e!s this season. Hence the export sur
plus, which amounted to 20,000,009 bush
els iu 1880, and 15,000,000 iu 1S31, is not
expected this season to exceed
10,000,000 bushels, tho chief deficiency be
ing in the South Australian exports.
Stocks in the United States, Canada and
Australia—the homes of CO,000,000 of
people—will be exhausted this season as
they were never exhausted before, while
Great Britain and the Continent, which
are eveu now living ’row hand to mouth,
instead of drawing their summer supplies
mainly from Atlantic ports, will hare to
relf almost exclusively on the fag end of
the arrivals from Russia aud California
and the new crop in India. How to make
both ends meet was from first to last the
great problem of tho season, so that tho
California and Oregon surplus of 50,009,-
900 bushels, instead of being a superfluous
quantity to be got rid of at ad hazards,
was a vital necessity for Europe.
N-A.TEKAJ. END OF THE BBAK POLICY.
Hut while it was not the true polic> of
California to bo- the chronic bear of the
European wheat market during the last
twelve months, it is quite certain that sh
apade the waa endeavoring to remove the
sod from hi* grave. With incessant grief
she kept uttering the name of tbe dead
chief, “Arusi 1 Arusi ’. ’ The men did
not disturb her, but allowed ber to stay.

A wedding has been the exciting episode
of tbe week. Uf course it is In order to
first mention the bride. She is the grand
daughter of Lucien, and grandniece of
Napoleon Bonaparte. Some time in 1860,
I’ierre Joseph, eon of Lucien, scandalized
his family and imperial cousin by marry
ing a pretty milliner. She proved a good-
wife, however, and the two were blessed
with two children, Roland aud Jeanne.
Tbe family existed on the allowance
granted them by NapoleouIII, until 1871,
when tbe fali of the empire found them
penniless in a little town near Brussels.
It was then that tbe mother’s fine charac
ter displayed itself. She bundled her
family together, including her husband,
wbowas)then somewhat an of invalid, and
started for London. - She- thought that the
Communist troubles would put a tempor
ary end to l’ari* fashions, and that she
might profit by the fact, and establish a
dressmaking establishment iu London.
She carried her inteutiou into effect; but
the Londoners dld-not relish the princely
seamstress. Her custom was very poor,
aud the project failed miserably. She
thought better to perish in. the hands of
friends rather than strangers, and set out
for Paris. There the family received
enough Irom charitable friends to enable
tbe son, Roland, to enter the military
school of St. Cyr, and for the daughter,
Jeanne, to take drawing and modeling
lessons. A rich army officer’s family pett
ed Jeanne, and Introduced her to Made
moiselle Blanc, the daughter of the great
Monaco gambler. Mademoiselle Blanc
was pretty, aud possessed twenty million
francs. Jeanne in turn talked of nothing
but her handsome brother Roland. Made
moiselle Blanc began to love Roland
through his sister’s praises. Roland came,
was seen, and conquered. He was thus
able, the other day, to endow bis lovely
sister with a million francs on her mar
riage with the Marquis de Villeneuve.
They were married last Wednesday, at
tbe church et St. Thomas d’Antln, by tbe
mischance, but ou the 15th of the follow
ing January, 1777. a clerk In tbe dock
yard, m moving some hemp in the hemp
room, discovered an explosive machine
and various combustible) materials. Some
ot tbe authorities then recollected that a
sullen, silent man, au artisan, had been
seen loitering about the yard the ds^bf the
fire, and had accidently been locked one
night into tbe rope ho use. His exact name
was not known, but, from his calling la
life, he was generally known as John the
Painter. A reward was offered for his
capture, but he had disappeared and could
cot be found iu spite ot a diligent search,
either in Portsmouth or tho neighborhood.
The suspicions against him were strength
ened by the fact that he had recently come
from America; and a panic spread through
the country, when it was said that a band
of American Incendiaries had arrived,
with instructions to spread fire and havoc
in every direction. Subsequent events
gave color to this apprehension. Incen
diary fires were attempted at Plymouth
and at Bristol; and in tbe latter city the
miscreant, having failed to sat fire to some
vessels, contrived to burn down several
warehouses that stood upon the quay,
close to a crowded mass of shipping. In
a house of the same city, combustibles
were found stored, and the feeling of
alarm was naturally increased in do slight
degree.
At the beginning of February, a
man was apprehended at Oldham, in
Hampshire, on a charge of burglary. Ha
was a Scotchman, named Aitken, twenty-
four years ot age—a wandering unsettled
person, who had at various times bom
several aliases, and Who now turned out
to be John tbe Painter.'- Three years pre
viously he had been to seek his fortune
in America, and had there adopted the
most extrema views of the party of inde
pendence. Ou returning to Great Britain
he had committed various act* of theft,
and was taken in custody on suspicion
or housebreakin*. It was found a very
difficult matter, however, to fix on him
auy connection with the recent acta of
incendiarism, for bo showed great cleaver-
ness in parrying such questions as were
askid. On the suggestion of Earl Temple
another painter named Baldwin, who had
also travelled in America, was pul into the
same cell with Aitken. By professing
sympathy with his views, he managed to
win bis confidence, and John the Painter
speedily divulged a great deal, w^ch, if
true, it was very important that the Gov
ernment should know. Early in March
he was tned in Winchester. The evidence

Talking of weddings, rather a romantic
story is going tho rounds concerning tbe
recently married-daughter of the Duchesse
de NoaiHes. About a dozen years ago the
Duchesse was having her portrait painted
by Herbert. This was the English painter
who suddenly turner Catholic about the
rime of the Puseyitc excitement In Eng
land. The Duchesse observed ou a side
easel a lovely picture of a little Italian
;irl. She asked Herbert how be came to
magine such (an exquisite child. He
informed her that tbe picture had an orig
inal in a lovely littla creature of about
five year?, who often visited hts studio.
Herbert, who had never ceased, to regret
the loss of an only son, a very promising
painter who died quite young, suggested
to the lady that such a lovely child would
well adorn a nobleman’s palace. Tbe
Duchesse was struck with tho idea, and
forthwith adopted tbe child Tbe little
girl bss since blossomed Into a charming
young lady, and the other day was mar
ried to a wealthy English gentleman.
A reporter has Interviewed Madame
Mackey to ascertaiq the tronthof the
Princo de Bourbon story. He found the
lady and her daughter both as fascinating
as wealth, ampbeauty can make them.
Madame Mackey stated that neither her
daughter nor herself ever Smew Philippe
de Bourbon—much less looked upon him
as an eligible husband. This was the first
annoyance that had entered Into her Pari
slan life of enjoyment. When she first
came everybody sought tho entree ot her
salon. She refused to turn her house into
a casino, and denied the multitade access.
Among those sue refused was Madame
Pcyrounet, the “Etlncelle” of the Figaro,
who wrote begging for admission to her
parties. “E’.incelTe’.’ never forgave the re
fusal, and lias ever since cast aspeuions
upon the Mackey family. It was “Etin-
celle” who started this last story. Mr.
Mackey was in London, and was amazed
when ho read the telegram in tbe Times.
He telegraphed toTJtt wife desiring an ex-
ilanation, and was only quieted when he
earned that It was canard. Ever since
Mademoiselle Mackey graduated from
school the concierge’s den would be
thronged every morning with all sorts of
young men, who would ask queer ques
tions ol the portor concerning the young
lady, offering him large fees. They would
ask whether she had a husband in view,
whether she liked the theatre, what her
habits were! or what ber fortune amount
ed to. So great, tqp, was tbe daily bun
dle oflotters that madame said she was
thluklug of putting up a. notice on the
door to the effect that, “according to
American custom,” her daughter would
not have one sou for a marriage portion.
Madame Mackey said that her daughter
should never marry anyone bat an Ameri
can, for foreign noblemen wore all ruined
fortune-hunters, and always proved bad
husbands. The American girls, she said,
who married foreign noblemen were
laughed at by their friends at home.
A singular accident took place the other
day. President Grevy has been, forseveral
months, holding a series of fencing bouts
at the Elysee. Every Sunday morning all
the principal amateurs of Paris would
gather In a large chamber, aud engage in
mimic warfare. Jtriias been mnch noticed
and commented u|>on by the press, which
rather laughs at the thing. But it la not
the project of the President himself, but
his son-in-law, M. Daniel Wilson, who is
distinguished In the use of foils. Wilson
had held the championship for several
Sundays; bat finally Aurelien
Scholl, of the Etenemcnt, a witty writer,
and a skillful swordsman, challenged him
to measure weapons. The coming com
bat attracted much attention, and quite i
gathering took place on the morning,
Numerous bets were made, and sporting
men were prominent. Parry, feint, and
thrust occupied tho attention of every
spectator tor a while. But finally the
combatants grew excited; Wilson pressed
forward toward Scholl, who, in turn, gave
him blow for blow. Wilson made a pro
digious thrust. The two foils encircled
each other like augry snakes, and bent
backward and forward till they almost
touched the hilts. Suddenly Scholl’s foil
snapped in two. It rebounded, and caught
Wilson on the side, piercing his thlu
fencing-shirt like paper. Tlie friendly en
counter was ended for the day.

Jesse James’ Saddle.
Kansas Cits Times.
Yesterday afternoon Sheriff Timber-
lake, of Clay county, came to tbe city, ac
companied by a young man named J. L.
Evbds, and tbe latter at once identified
the saddle which for several days has at
tracted so much attention iu the window
of the establishment of C.- Blitz, on Fifth
street, as the one stolen from him last fall
at Kearney. The saddle is the one se
cured in St. Joseph at the lime Jesse
James was killed, and Is tbe same used by
tbe dead outlaw during his famous pros
pecting tour through Nebraska and east
ern Kansas with Charles Ford jusl' before
Bob Ford pat an end to bis existence. It
was taken from the barn near tbe house
where Jesse James was killed, by the St.
Joseph officers, and afterward returned to
Mrs. James. At the same time two horses
were also secured by the officers, but, as
both had been stolen from farmers living
in Buchanan county, they were reclaimed
by their owners. The saddle, a shot
gun and cartridge belt, were secured by
Mr. Blitz about a week ago, and have
been viewed by thousands since tbat time,
because the dead outlaw formerly usee
them. Shortly after they were placed on
exhibition, Mr. Timberlake began looking
abont to see if an owner for the saddle
could not be found. It was a fine one,
such as are used by young men in country
towes, and. at last the Clay county official
remembered tbat a young man named
Evans lost a horse and saddle last year
near Kearney, and at last induced Evans
to come to Kansas City aud see if the one
advertised as having belonged to Jesse
James was not his. The yoUDg man did
so and at once said it was his property,
and forthwith a writ of replevin was
sworn out before Justice Rauson and the
saddle seized. Mr. Evans gave bond for
his appearance, and the merits of the case
will be beard before Justice Rauson Fri
day, May 12th.
Young Evans was questioned by a
Times reporter, and told the following
story: “On the Thursday night before
Thanksgiving of last year he came Into
Kearney from his home about two miles'
south of town, and hitched his horse to
the rack near the Baptist church; when
he went to look for his horse about 10
o’clock, the animal was gone, but the
following day it was found, minus saddle
and bridle, in the roadway leading from
tbe town. The night the horse was stol
en the store of J. M. Gowat Kearney was
broken into and robbed, and it was
thought at the time tbat tbe men who did
that job also stole Evans’ horse. The
identification of the saddle yester
day settles that fact, and
Jesse James, besides being
famous train and bank robber, was
also a common horse thief and burglar,
and stooped so low as to rob a poor coun
try store of two or three thick overcoat*
and some bats. It is presumed on the
night ot the store robbery Jesse James
and whoever accompanied him went at
once to the home of 'Mrs. Samuels, and
there placed Evans’ saddle upon his own
horse and turned the borrowed animal
into tbe street. Mr. Blitz still has on ex
hibition the shotgun carried by the fa
mous outlaw, aud if some one does not
come np and claim it also, tlrs. Jesse
James, to whom it belongs, will be lucky

While the two Houses were in recess for
the Christmas holidays, tho country was
greatly agitated by a number ol incendiary
Iire3, which pointed to the existence of a
conspiracy for the destruction of the ship
ping and arsenals. Although a similar
design had been conceived iu 17(54 by the
French Miuistor vjhoiseul, aud had come
to the knowledge of the English Govern
meat, proper precautions for guarding tbe
arsenals and dock-yard* were not taken,
and on the 7th of December a lire broke
out at Portsmouth, which threatened the
total destruction of the national property
there. It was at first supposed to be
tha bead of the approaching brute, and,
turning, beat a hasty retreat iu the direc
tion of the road. Tbe speed told rapidly
upon Mr. Derby, who turns tha scales at
230 pounds. Net a moment was to be
lost. The quick eye of Mr. Derby discov
ered a tree uear by. Springing into the
lower branches, he reached a point of
safety half dead from exhaustion. The

TENS OH’S PREDICTION.
WL’ *
GeatrslForecast•( tbe Sm»a IMS.
From Vendor's Weather silUtin for Ray.
Out of the thirteen long-ringe aud gen
eral predictions which I have given forth
and caused to be published iu the leading
newspapers of the day, and in my yearly
almanacs between the years of 1875 and
1882, only two have been seriously “out”
or astray with respect to tbe summer sea
son. The statement Is not an empty as
sertion, hut on tbe contrary one that is
capable of proof. For tbe verification of
these predictions does not lie iu my own
translation of them, but iu each case has
been gathered from the telegraph reports
of the day, aud just as these have appeared
in the dally journals in which the predic
tions have been published. Having said
this much on bygone forecasts I desire
now briefly to give a brief but comprehen
sive outline of what, iu my humble opin
ion, are likely to be the most remarkable
features of tbe summer aud autumn of the
year 1882.
First—A season that will well merit the
designation or cool to cold aud wet, gen
erally. Notthat there will not be terms
of summer warmth and even intense heat
for periods, hut rather that these last will
appear iu the retrospect as of but compar
ative insignificance, or as tbe exception
to the general rule.
Second—The season will be marked by
not only great precipitation, but by a
mugginess of atmosphere, generally,
caused by the reeking condition cf the
earth and tbe long continuance of clouded
sky. This will result in periods of ex
treme sultriness and heavy weather, duty
ing which thunder and hailstorms
will occur. In other words, the summer
will be the reverse of clear and dry.
Third—There is a likelihood of June
and August frosts lu Northern, Western
and Southern sections, and a general cold
wave may occnr toward midsummer.
Fourth—Tbe autumn months will con
tinue moist. September will probably
give rains and floods in Western Canada
and iu Western and Southern sections of
tha United States. October will be much
tbe same, with early cold and snow-falls.
November will begin the winter of 1882-
83—a winter likely to be memorable on
account of its exceptionally heavy snow
falls and very cold weather over the
wholo northern hemisphere. That “a
cold and wet summer is invariably fol
lowed by a cold and stormy winter,” Is a
truth now so well proven and borne out
by tho testimony of past records that we
cannot lightly pul it aside; aud if we have
good and sufficient grounds for predicting
the former—as we most assuredly have at
this time—it is but right that we should
warn the people of the latter iu good
season.
Fifth and last—Tho approaching season
will probably be the first of a couple of
wefBummers, and, as 1882 is, so is 1883
likely to he. But here we must stop for
the present. Henry G. Vennor,

At yesterday'* meeting of the Commis
sioners of Emigration, Commisioner For
rest read a ietter in which be set forth tho
impecunlosity of the board and offered to
meet personally the pay rolls of the Gar
den aud Ward’s Island until an appropri
ation should lie made. HU offer was ac
cepted. Commissioner Lynch, on behalf
o! the Irish Emigrant Society, read an of
fer from that body to provide for tbe Irish
arriving at tbe Garden until tbe Legisla
ture should act. He said $5,000 ot the
society's funds had been placed in bank to
tbe credit of Secretary Jackson. This
offer was accepted.
Commissioner Ulrich, who earlier in
the meeting bad questioned Commission
er Lynch’s right to act as a commissioner,
and had discovered tbat Mr. Lynch’s
term as president of the Irish Emigrant
Society does not expire until next Mon
day, now complained of letters that had
been published in tbe newspapers criti
cising the conduct aud complexion of the
board, and advising that St be abolished.
He particularized the reports of alleged
statements by Commissioner Lynch that
there were too many “Cornell Republi
cans” in tbe board.
Mr. Lynch said with a good deal of
vigor that be had written none of the let
ters referred to, tbat he did not write for
the newspapers, aud had declined to be
interviewed.
Commissioner Starr began reading ,’rom
a bulky document. At tbe end of the
first sentence lie turned upon Commis
sioner Ulrich, who sat next him. and sug
gested the propriety of hia behaving him
self. Mr. Ulrich evinced great surprise,
and, looking np innocently into Mr.
Starr’s face, asked, “What’s th6 joke?”
Mr. Starr explained, excitedly, that Mr.
Ulrich had turned bis head and looked at
him in a manner devoid of politeness.
Thereupon Mr. Ulrich jumped up and
earnestly demanded of the venerable Mr.
Starr: «...
“What’s crawling on you? I don t seq
tha joke.”
After quiet had been restored, Mr. Starr
resumed his reading. The document de
scribed the good works of the board.
Commissioner Ulrich, interrupting,
wanted to know what his colleague was
driving at.
Mr. Starr replied that he was driving at
a resolution which he proposed to offer.
He explained that he might not be a com
missioner longer than to-day, and thi«
was hts “dying speech.” The resolution,
when reached, proved to be an attempt to
make a contract with the steamship com
panies for tbe payment ot bead money.
Commissioner Tsintor was »f the opinion
that the board would probably be Indicted
for doing it. Mr. Starr asked leave to
withdraw bis resolution. Mr. Ulrich
stipulated that he should withdraw his
■“dying speech” with it. President Ste
phenson ruled that the speech was part of
tbe resolution.
‘ - I don’t know wby you want to make
yourself more stupid than you are,” said
Mr. Starr to Mr. Stephenson. “I never
thought you were so stupid as you act.
~You are trying to make yourself very
offensive to me.”
After making these remarks, Mr. Starr
withdrew them. His “dying speech” was
not withdrawn, but his resolution was. It
was decided to run the Garden and
Ward’s Island on tbe offers mentioned,
and others from merchants upou condi
tion that for neither services nor supplies
are tbe commissioners to incur any per
sonal liability, All are to look to the
Slate for their money.

London, May 2,18S2.—A dispatch to
the Standard from St. Petersburg ssys,
with reference to Lieutenant Danenhow-
er’s arrival: -‘All the party appear in
goon bodily health but Colo, who is com
pletely out of his mind. At times be bad
to be kept from attacking Danenfcowcr
and his comrades by the exertions of a
Cossack who accompanied the party all
the way from Irkutsk. Lieutenant Dan-
enhower suflers from weakness of sight,
and has to keep himself as much as possi
ble In the dark. He hopes, however, that
his sight will return and that be will re
gain liis usual strength as soon as he get*
into warmer climes and can receive the
attention of a skilled oculist. According
to Lieutenant Danenhower’s opinion
Captain De Long and his comrades must
have landed within a very few miles of
inhabited settlements, and were probably
misled by inaccurate maps into taking a
direction into the wilderness, where they
are now being sought for.
SUFFERINGS OF THE EXPLORERS.
“The story of the sufferings of Danen-
hower and lus comrades before and after
leaving ’lie Jeannette is too long to relate
here. When they landed their legs were
so swollen aud frost bitten that they were
obliged almost to crawl on their hands
and knees until they could got fuel to

were noted among the party for strength
and vigor. Lieutenant Danenhower
thinks of reading a paper before tbe Geo
graphical Society on the subject of the
possibilities of trade on the northern
coast of Siberia, as bo thinks the seas
have been much misunderstood. He is
loud in his praise of the excellent treat

It was a Third avenue horse car, and it
was very crowded. A good naturetf son
of Eriu had boarded tbe car near the city
hall, but was too late to get a seat. Ha
carried a tin dinner pall and wore the
dress of a hardworking man. There was
a humorous twinkle in his eye, but it was
plain to be seen tbat he waa tired. He
hung on to a strap near the door in a
commanding position where he would be
sure to see the first vacant seat. Not a
single passenger got out until Houston
street was reached. Then there was a
momentary glimpee of a vacant seat, but
it was filled before he could reach it. At
Fourteenth atreet the car stopped. The
man’s eyes brightened, and he kept a
sLhrp lookout. But no—it was to let a
lady get on. The car dragged its way
slowly on to Twenty-seventh street, and
slowed up.
“Twlnty-sivlnth sthreeti” called Pat,
with his eye on a woman who looked 11
if she wanted to get out. But she didn’t,
and the car went on.

ber of nearly every street in a vary dis
tinct and insinuating way, with flattering
comments upon them as desirable places
of residence, but bis itforts continued to
be vain. A few unfortunate* who had
beeu obliged to stand, like himself, from
time to time Wft tbe car, but not a vacant
seat was to be seen.
Finally poor Pat became discouraged,
and subsided for a while. But at bix-

A FIGHT FOR LIFE.
Hovr nn Adirondack Man Battled
with and Overcame a Ferocious Bear.
Troy Times Hay 1st.
E. R. Derby, of Saranac Lake, was tbe
hero of a very eicitine exploit Friday af
ternoon. While driving from the Pros
pect House to Bloomingdale, iu passiug
through the woods he heard cries for help
proceeding from a ravine a few rods dis-
laul from the road. Springing from his
carriage and running hastily to the edge
of the ravine, Mr. Derby saw an infuria
ted bear rauging around the trunk cf a
small maple, eagerly trying tc dislodge
Gardner Maloney, a well-known Saranac
guide, who bad taken refuge in the
branches of the tree. With genuine he
roism, Mr. Derby drew his revolver, a
Smith & Wesson seven-shooter, 44 cali
bre, and rushed to the rescue. Skilled in
woodcraft, he was enabled to creep unob
served by the bear to within a short lance,
when he opened fire upon the brute. The
first fire took effect in the shoulder, and
was quickly followed by a second that
lodged in tbe bear’s head.
The only effect of these was to distract
tiie attention and increase the fury of the
bear, who abandoned the siege of Malo
ney and directed his attention to Mr. , ., , ,„ in _,
Derby. He charged furiously upon that Mastchans_k _ v he_ at J De^iamir, Rankin A &.
