I HASZARIVS GAZl€‘l‘ l‘i_-3. JULY 12 I / /. .. / A1713 NGLISII Coimrsss As'riuv.—- While Lord Ellenborough, the ex-Gove_I'- nor General of India, is busily engaged in the House of Lords supporting the Tories, in the hope that he may become, in the event of Earl Derby supporting Lord Pal- merston, a Cabinet Minister, his wife, now separated from him some twenty years, is leading ii wild life among the Arabs. A correspondent of the New York Observer, writing from Damascus, March 23, thus speaks of licr: . “You have heard of the eccentric En- glish Countess who married an Ar Sheikh. Rumour, as usuiil, was false. was in her villa this morning, just out of the gates of Damascus. She is at Palmyra with her husband who is a petty Arab, small in stature, and generally contetnpti ble. Is it not a stran e history? She was Ianthe, Countess of éllenborough, young, beautiful and worshipped. Her only daugh- ter was the aliianccd bride of a Prince of Austria. How do I know that she was beautiful? I will tell you. I saw her boudoir this morning, and one of its orna- ments was her portrait at twenty years old. She was really beautiful. Time and care have changed her perhaps. Among her books I saw familiar volumes. One was. “ Daily Food,” :1 worn copy too. Another was entitled. “Marriage from a. Christian Point of View,” a French work. Her boudoir was splendidly ornamented, and had her portraits of her father, a line old English gentlemen, and her children, one living now, the other dead, I believe. Her history is but half known. Divorced from Lord Elletiboroti h for intrigues with a German Prince. s e went to Greece, where she married a Greek Count. “Tired of him, she went to Damascus, wherein a visit to Palmyra she was pro- tected from robbery by this fellow, whose name was Medjui. She determined to marr him. He objected and ran away. She employed Arabs to bring him back. The English Consul interfered. She said she was worth £I,500 it year, and all Tur- key could not prevent her doing as she wished. So she followed Medjui into the desert and was married to him in Turkish style or Arab Style. No one thinks it will be lasting. She keeps liiin _supplied with money. has given him an elegant place near Damascus, and before long will travel away in search of new adventures. Her friends are desirous of keeping her t_is_far away from England as possible, and it is a matter of surprise that they sent ht?t,'_ele- gent presents of money on hearing pl this marriage, though they knew it to be illegal and immoral. I assure you, that! found_it almost impossible to believe that I was in use ville of one who had ruled in the aplen- did circles of St. James's who had been the special avorite with the Iron Duke, who had rivalled iieytilty itself in England, and who was now in an Arab tent, the Wife oft! do of an Anazce.

Now the Scotchmen in retaliation, broke the win- dows of _ iicl_tingbam’s mansion.

This is poison enough to kill any bug or any body. The best method we ever found to clear a room or house of bedbugs, where they get into the chinks and crevices of the wall is to take out the furniture and burn sulphur there. 'I‘he tumes will kill them wherever they penetrate. We have known bedbugs to live in a house that had not been occupied by anybody for . more than a year. “ If you ever think of marrying a widow, my son" said an anxious parent to his heir, “ select one whose tirst husband was hung; that ii the only way to prevent her throwing his memory in your face, and make annoy- ing comparison."—“ Even that won’t pre- vent it,” exclaimed a crusty old bachelor, she’ll then praise hitn and say “ hanging would be too good for you."
