Miss Sarah Baer, a Jewess, on the 5th inst. married a young man of her own race, known to her as Cesar Bloch, a native of Alsace. She had known him but a few weeks, and had entrusted him with her earnings, amounting to $186, With which he was to go into business, He had pre- vious to the marriage been employed as a waiter at Gilmore’s Garden 8nd at the Tivoli Theatre, The wedding ceremony was performed by Rabbi Kaiser. A day or two after the wedding a male relative of the bride’s received a hint that all was not right, and in the course of a few hours found that on the 26th of January, 1876,

A BASHI-BAZOUK COWED.

(Varna Correspondent London Daily News.)

An amusing incident occurred the other day between Rustchuk and Tchernavoda. An Englishman was. proceeding to the town when. he was arrested bya _ Bashi- Bazouk, beautifully mounted. The ruf- fian drew his horse across the road, un- sheathing his yataghan, and menaced in~ stant death if the traveller advanced. The latter coolly drew his revolver and pointed it at the head of the BashiyBazouk, much to his astonisbment. He had got hold of. the wrong man, and it did not take him long to convince himself on that point, for he sheathed his yataghan, smiled endless apologies to the Englishman, and would

ENGLAND'S QUEEN,

At the Centennia! banquet, held at Ben- nington, Vermont, after a toast to Presi<| sident Hayes had been responded, to, Pre ident Phelps, of Centennial Con said, ‘* We are celebrating the a ofa great victory over the troops of Great Britain, ay ey can mien in ames that it is more than sixty-five years that peace has reigned between us. the mother country. Long may it continue. I am ‘happy to state that courteous and grati- fying correspondence has taken. place in: reference to this celebration between Gov.

Mr. shale continued, “We should not be doing our full duty if we forgot that illustri- ous lady who, through so many years of blameless life, has been more than Queen of Great Britain. She has been Queen in the virtues and Queen in the hearts of all her people. I therefore sad pose the health of Her Most Gracious Ma» jesty Victoria, Queen of Great Britain.

Mr. Evarts, in response, said : «Touching the might of that nation of that gracious lady the Queen, is it not the best token of the great and Christian char- acter of the nation and of herself, that on the celebration of a battle so fatal to the power of her ancestory, and so glorious for the prosperity of this country, that we should receive such a letter from the Gov« ernor General of Canada, the representative of the British Crown [t is fitting that we should respond to our festival with royal homage with the martial and loyal airs of England.

President, that had Queen Victoria been on the throne instead of George IIJ., or if we had postponed our rebellion until Queen Victoria reigned, it would not have been necessary, and if there had been any rebellion at all it would haye been on the part of England.’.

GREAT BRITAIN,

Tus Livre Cosr or War,—The Lo Medieal kxaminer says :—** A vitlabicn ee count of the Prussians killed and wounded

uring the Franco,German war has been

ublished at Berlin by Fischer & Uo. The total number of combatants either killed }Or wounded amounted to 88,367, compris. ing 3,658 officers and 84,209 men, Of the officers, 879, or 18,8 per cent,, were killed on the spot; 1,447, or 21 per cent, were slightly wounded, and 353 or 7.8 per cent. were returned simply as wounded. ()f the 3,979, wounded officers, 485 died subse. quently from the effects of their wounds, The wounds, taken in connection with the instrument producing them, were—56,062 rom gun-shots, 5,084 from shells, 218 from sabres, 595 from bayonets, 236 from frag ments of stone, earth, &c (thrown. up by shells); in 2,598 the nature of the cause was not returned. The following numbers give.a good ides of the parts most exposed to injury from gun-shots. 1t seems strange that the head. should have been struck more irequently than the chest: —Head, 17.3 per cent. ; arm, 13.7; thigh, 10.6; chert, 8.8; hand, 8.1; knee, 2.7: back’ 2.3. The fact that the cases of sabre. wound did not exceed 218 would seem to indicate a sparing use of cavalry during the war.
