For twelve years Mrs. Milne was as good a woman as any woman could be, but after Mr. Fowler come to Mavehvster, she changed, but even on the

day she wert away he had no suspicion of

He consented to take her baek on ber promise to reform, and he travel- jed on the Vontinent with her, aud then re- turned to town. He tried to bring her tos sence of her duty. He had never been un- kind to her. He believed that in December she went away again with Mr. Fowler. After that he instituted this suit. At one time she admitted to him that she had gone away with Fowler, but said that nothing improper had taken place. Ona subsequent occasion "he told her that she bad met Mr. Fowler on Lon- dou Bridge, und had goue to Greenwhich with him, and stayed in aa hotel, and she admitted n. At the close the jury found that the res- pondent and co-respondent nad beem guilty of adultery with eac mages to the amount asked for, namely, £5,- (00, and the cuoart pronounced thereupon 4 decree nisi, with costs,

Equally useless is it to say that little good of him was written or thought dyring his adtainistration uf that incorsigible department, jand that his ‘‘treatment”’ of Southern ladies was described by adjectives of a very severe import.

The French eapecially are well pleased at the apparent modification of the German desire to humiliute Paris by a triumphal entry into the eupital, The nezotiations between Bismarck and Favre ‘form one of the most interesting chapters in ‘the history ot this memorable wer. The ar- rival of Favre was known to none except those immediately cor.cerned in conducting On bis arrival = warters occupied by Bismarck in Rue Pro- erie he was Coulee admitted into the presence of the cha.cellor.

After a few prehminary remarks, Bismarck said: * Well, Monsieur Favre, what is the object of this visit?’ :

‘avre, much affected, replied: ‘*The object is to put astop to this terrsble suffering of the country; for, now that the hope of reliet from without seems lost, Paris must needs seek

e. All we ask is such consideration as a generous enemy might give without josg of advantage orhonor.” F

Biamarck expressed his desire to do all in his power to show his respect for the sutfer- lings aod zallautry of the French nation con- lgistent with the safety, honor and interest of | United Germany. He said that this had been from the first to the last, the object and desire ot the Emperor and all his advisers since the commencement of this unhappy war was for- ‘ced upon them,

Favre firet aemanded the terms already re- yorted

Bismarek replied; “It is not in my prov- inee to refuse to accept the terms, but I must say that the present proposals are such that | cannot myself approve of them, and ] feel confident that my august master will reject them. However, it ismy duty to submit them to his consideration.”’ /

After this formal busines:, Bismarck assumed the fumiliar and sociable air for which he is famous, and invited Favre to partake of some refreshments, adding, **From all reports you are not well supplied inside the city.”’ lavre consented,and a good dinner was soon spread.

After the entertainment Favre was politely but strictly placed uuder surveillance, and oc- cupied au apartment over the police bureau.

As already kuown, the first overtures were promptly rejected. After Favre's retura with the acceptance of the terms in substance de- manded by the Emperor, great excitement prevailed in Versuillea. The major went twice to the police headquarters to endeavor to obtain an interview, but received a per>mp- tory order not to repeat the attempt, as such an act would render him liable to imprison- ment. All commeniestion between Favre and outsiders were strictly prevented.

An interview again took place between Bis- ;marck and Favre. The former alterwards | waned on the King and council, when Favre's ‘acceptance on thé part of the provisional gov- lernment was sabmitted. After Bismarck left

The supplies sent were found to be just double the quantity of each article ordered and althoagh the draft was not returned, $2,000 in cush came im its place, and supported the thirty orphans through later and more bitter times. Few knew of this action of General Butier, aud he never told it. On many suc- ceeding uccasions, he was called upon in the same straightforward womanly way for aid and protection, and in every instance were buth given, justly and with the courtesy of the gentlemen. The children of the rebel soldiers, fallen om the wrong side of crue! war, had reason to know what a strange kind of beast * Boast * Butler was at New Orleans, and the nuns’ notion of “Yankees” were vary materially modified, Mother Shannon's idea became gradually: “When General Butler finds Southern ladies who do not forget that they are such, they find General Butler a gen-

In the meantime, would it not be better to turn our undivided attention to a pre- posed scheme that shall readily and progress- ingly enhance the value of the whole of our leasehold land, both clénred and iu wilderness, aud enable the occupiers and holders of a large portion of it to purchase their farms and claims direct from the owners thereof. The benefits positively sure to acerue to the in- habitants cf the whole Island by the running of a Railroad from one end of it to the other, with here and there branch lines to leading towns districts, and shipping porte; seem so salf-evident to the advocates of our propceed Railway system, that the subject surely de- serves to be thoroughly ventilated and discussed, exclusively on its own merits,

Charlottetown, February 6, 1871.

As the time for the meeting of our Legislature approaches, we find the Elect- ors throughout the Island holding public meetings and discussing the wants of their several localities. We believe they are taking the mght means for accomplishing their purpose, vet only by discussing the questions brought befere them, but by put- ting in cirenlation petitions for signatures to press their claims. These public meet- ings have the effect of bringing the Repre- sentatives in direct contact with the peo- pie. A free discussion takes place, the former ascertaiu the opinions of the latter on the different questions which may be brought before them in their Legislative capacity, and are thereby placed in a posi-

Messrs: L .H .Davies, C. L. Strickland, R. BR, Fits- gerald, Jumes Palmer and Charles Yates were appointed a Committe to solicit subscript. jons. Quite a number of shares have already been taken, and the residue should be dispo- sed of without much difficulty, as the instivuti- vn can scarcely fail to prove a paying spece- lation.

Y.™M.C. A. Debating Clab The Literary Entertainment, which was

postponed on account of other meetings, will tuke place on Tuesday evening, 7th inst., mm the Association Room, Lower

Athen:eum, to commence at 8 o'clock. The blic and friends of the Association are

tion to fearlessly and independantly advo- cate for their just rights. We do not think the people of West Cape are asking too much when they require the Government to complete the wharf at West Point, and grant a subsidy to a sailing schooner to run onee « week between West Point and Shediac. Nor the people near Brae River, Lot 9, in wishing to have the harbor at thit place improved. These improvements | are much needed, and we trust the mem- bers of the Government will give them due consideration.

We will not, at this time, comment on the various questions, which may be brought before the Legislature in the com- ing Session, but will closely note their pro- ceedings, and faithfully Ixy them before our readers. At the same time fearlessly enunciating our own opinions—upholding the right and condemning what we may consider wrong. :

As all reforms of importance have been gained by agitation and the united effort of the people, we say to the Electors in those parts of the Island, who have not as yet considered the wants of their severa) Joca- lities, lose no time in bringing the matter before your Representatives, and in the words of the famous O'Connell, “agitate, agitate,’ until you accomplish your pur- pose.

RAILWAY MEETING aT GEORGETOWN :— At a large and influenciel meeting held at Geergstown, on Friday, the 27th ult., G. A. Aitken Esq., in the chair. The fullowi Resolutions were carried, the former w one dissenting veice, and the latter unani- mously.

Resolved, That it is the opinion of this meeting that a Railroad from Georgetown to Cascumpec via Summerside, with branch lines where most required is a matter of of vital importanee to the commercial and agricultura! prosperity of thisIsland. That nothing would tend more to facilitate trade, develop the resources of the country, in. crease its revenue and give farmers and shippers an additional adv of easy export at this end of the Line, for several weeks later in the season.
