which the death ot an uncle in England, who had left him a fortune of 200,000, was announced. That evening they went to the National Theatre, where he treated the band and scattered coins among the audience from the box they occupied. On Friday, at 8 p. m., accompanied by Mr. and Mrs. D.Wilson, of -GO James street, friends of the bridegroom, he and she visited the office of the Rev. Mr. Ferguson, chaplain of the Five Points House of Industry, at G9 Park street. Mr. Ferguson, who was called from a temperance meeting, where he was making an address, to marry them, did not notice, he says, until after he had married them that Mr. Shib-ley was drunk. Being married, they went to the Wilsons', and Mr. Shibley gave his wife four $1,000 bills and a roll of smaller bills to keep for him. Next day about 6 p. m., being comparatively sober, he asked her for his money, saying that he wanted to get one "of the $1,000 bills changed. He also asked for their marriage certificate, saying that he would go and get Mr. Ferguson to put in the date, which had been omlt'ed; and, finally, he asked her for the wedding ring which he had given her, saying that he was going to have an inscription engraved in i Then he went away and did not return. She thinks he may have been murdered. The police are inclined to think he has escaped that. His name, with Newell, Iowa, as his address, is on the blotter of the Cosmopolitan Hotel, where he put up Wednesday with two friends. He has not been at the hotel since he registered, and his friends have left it. The name is also written in a very shaky hand on Mr. Ferguson's marriage register.

There have been 1S4 women students at Michigan University during 18S2. Of this number 110 were in the literary department. It is proposed in Chicago to introduce n text-book on good behavior into the public schools. The school board has not yet passed on the matter. The Baltimore school board have resolved that a colored high school be provided "at as early a day as practicable" which is somewhat indefinite. , John Hopkins University has 110 new students taking her post-graduate courses. The college which is part of the university shows vigorous growth. The public schools of Charleston, S. C, have developed with surprising rapidity since the war, and the citizens take great pride in them. The high school of the city is taking vigorous rank. The evening high school of Boston has a remarkable attendance of 800 pupils; forty per cent, of these are young women. A large proportion of both the male and female pupils are studying phonography with the design of making it useful in commercial life and business correspondence. The members of the Boston School Board are unanimous in the opinion .that it would be very unwise to return to the old methods of teaching spelling, but a majority agree that if any change should be made it should be" by composition, though, on the whole, they consider that
Marrying' When Intoxicated and Tlion Deserting His Wife. N. Y. Sun. A woman thirty years old, wearing a somewhat faded gown, and describing herself as Mary Evans, an artist in wax, asked the police yesterday to find her husband, whom she had married on Friday and lost on Saturday afternoon. She said she had met him for the first time on Wednesday, in the Atlantic Garden. He drank with her, and told her that he was Henry Frederick Shibly, a builder and farmer in Newell, Iowa, and that he had come to New York to meet a sister, who was soon to arrive on a White Star steamer from their native country, England. He asked her, she says, to go to the west with him as his bride. They met again next day and went around the citv seeing sights. He showed her a large roll of bills, and a

The wisdom of teaching children something positive about our national government and institutions has long been recognized, and it is pleasant to note that so judicious a person as the Eev. Edward E. Hale has made public a similar opinion. In a short address before the Bostonian Society he said the other day: " Now, I say the Declaration of Independence should bo framed and hung up in every school house in the United States.

The bull-fighter, who is piloted by two officials or the Spanish embassy, regards himself as quite an international celebrity. He has been over-petted in Spain. Ayear ago, when a bull's horn sent him to bed for three weeks, grandees and cabinet ministers called and left cards : and, a few months after, the king stopped him in the Puerto del Sol and asked him for a personal relic to sell at the queen's charity bazar.
