Monday Morning, October 16. 1871.

EASTERN exchanges notice a very decided difference of opinion that just now divides the faculty and students of Princeton College. Several of the young gentlemen have been indefinitely suspended for maltreating, or, as the college phrase has it, "hazing" new comers, their companions showed their disapproval of the righteous sentence by stoning the windows of some of the professors and absenting themselves from recitations. It is to be hoped that President MCCOSH will stand firm in this matter, and bring to justice, college oi* magisterial, every one of the insolent young offenders. It is high time that American students wefe taught that the brutalities practiced in British institutions of learning by the stronger upon the weaker, cannot be justified in this country. "Hazing" should at once be punished in the manner it deserves, and a few examples, such as Dr.

MCCOSH might now in justice make, would forever destroy the shameful and demoralizing system at Princeton, and render it a disgrace to all the colleges of the country,

SINCE the inauguration of the new movement against polygamy, prominent people in Utah have made terrible threatsBRIGHAM YOUNG'S Gentile organ says: "Driven to despair of justice at the hands of their sworn enemies, there is not a true Mormon in all Utah who would not put the torch to his own home and return the garden which his labors and sacrifices have produced to its original wilderness and desert." The people of the United States have heard this kind of nonsence before. When the rebel cause grew desperate there was a great deal written and spoken about "dying in the last ditch." But when the time came the Southern people were glad enough to submit to a magnanimous and generous foe. Thus it will be with the Mormons. When they realize that nothing remains to them but submission to just and Christian laws» they will be glad enough to submit, and, •o far from applying the torch to thair own homes, preserve those homes from the disagreeable consequences which might result from resistanoe on their part.

THE great strike of English mechanics at Newcastle and other towns on the Tyne having resulted substantially in their triumph, it is to be feared that this unsatisfactory way of dealing with employers will" be generally resorted to. The perfect organization of the British mechanics, and their accumulated savings, enabling them to support the strikers in idleness for many months, gave them the viciory, and after the first of January they are to work only nine hours a day. Workingmen will not be slow to learn the value of concert of action when they see that it has prevailed in this case against a combination of some of the heaviest capitalists in Great Britain. Why is it impossible for men who have learned so well the first and greatest element of success cannot initiate a movement for employing themselves and discharging their employers

THERE is good sense in this: The Massachusetts Railroad Commissioners have advised the railroad corporations of thai Slate to do their own express business. There an objection they say, railroads undertaking to assume the riako conveying large sums of money, which business might be left to the express companies, but they consider the transpotration of all parcels of merchandise and express matter as properly and legitimately belonging to railroads to do.

TUB Episcopal Convention has taken action upon the ground of the CHENEY controversy, and adversely to the claims *of that persistent minister. Instead of granting an alternate phrase, they solve the difficulty by declaring as their conviction that the word "regenerate," as it occurs in the service for the baptism of infants, "is not so used as to determine that a moral change in the subject of baptism is wrought in the sacrameat."

REPUBLICAN principles are triumphant everywhere, and the result ol the fall elections thus far has exceeded our most •anguine expectations. Ku Kluxism, the spirit of mob violence, the Tammany corruptions, and the split over the "new departure" have driven so many additional nails into the coffin of the defunct Democracy. .THE

A CITY without newspapers is such an anomaly in these days that only a great castastrophe can produce it. Almost the last to withstand the Chicago fire was the "Tribune" building, and with that went the distinguishing mark of Chicago as a city. Naturally, the first enterprise to struggle out of the smoking embers of the mass of ruins and establish itself again ia a newspaper, The people demand it, and the community cannot exist or begin to do business again without it. They may iit% in tents while they rebuild" their" homs and their hotels, but they must have their newspapers. To increase their present pitiable condition, the type foundries have gone the way of the newspaper establishments, and relief from home resources cannot be looked for. In this emergency Hon. Hurst Halstead, of the Cincinnati "Commercial," sends on a font of type as part of his contribution to the destitute of Chicago. As illustrating the spirit of mutual helpfulness which prevails among the craft, this incident is interesting, while the public of Chicago will also bless the generous public.—Boston Post.

"Ella, my child," said a prudish old maid to a pretty niece who would curl her hair in pretty ringlets, "if the Lord had intended your hair to be cnrled, he would have done it himself." "Se he did, aunty, when I was a baby, but he thinks I am big enough now to do it myself."

jz Mrs. Maria de Wolf Sogers has given to the Redwood Library, Newport, R. I., a collection of rare books, in value about three thousand dollars, to be held under the name of the "Robert Bogsn Memorial Fund," the interest of which is to be exipended for books. 'ir

A MODERN ROMANCE.

Time's Revengre—Wonderful Series ol Incidents and Complications—A Servant Girl Turned Oat a Titled

Lady.

An Australian newspaper—the Pleasant Creek News"—recently contained the following paragraph, and thereby hangs a tale:

In the family of a wealthy settler on the Wimmers River a servant girl, engaged to. attend on the children, has stepped into a title and property of £40,000, under the name of Lady Elizabeth Morton."

A FEW ESSENTIAL REMINISCENCES. It must have been about the year 1843, or something more than a quarter of a century ago, that the only son of an English nobleman, very high in rank, returning from the completion of his education at Oxford, found in attendance upon his mother a very beautiful and sprightly la-dy's-maid, or confidential companion, who, although country bred, and but lately familiar with London, had the air and manner of some accomplished young gentlewoman reduced to her present position by family adversity.

A GENUINE BECKY SHARP. In other words, she appears to have been one of those shrewd, worldly-mind-ed female characters who, from natural ambitien above their lowly stations, ac« quire a precocious knowledge of human nature and art to turn it to account before they have gained any really practical experience of the world at all and hence, when subjected to the latter, can display a tact and presence of mind equal to the most audacious results. THE LADY'S MAID CAPTIVATES A LORD.

The young lord, who has led a remarkably unsentimental life at the university, no sooner caught sight of this girl than he became deeply interested in her, and his frank way of showing this interest attracted her attention at once. A shallower character might have been moved to some folly of gratified vanity thereat but the lady's maid, instead of practising any ordinary coquetry, studiously avoided her sudden admirer until he was provoked to lie in wait for her as she left her mistress's room, and then made apparently indignant complaint to that mistress of the "persecutions" she was suffering. A MIRACLE OF VIRTUE AND DISCRETION

Such discreet dignity commended her, of course, more highly than ever to the regard of my lady, who called her son to account for his unbecoming conduct, and insisted that he should at once set out upon the year's Continental travel deemed necessary for the completion of his education. The noble youth was shamefaced enough at the humiliating failure of his very first manly love-adventure, and departed for the Continent in high dudgeon but, even to his own surprise, the fascination of the lady's maid had been intensified to him by her ungraciousness, and from France he wrote her the maddest of lovesick letters, actually

OFFERING-FO MAKE HER HIS WIFEL The circumspect young woman told her mistress nothing about this extraordinary overture: but, on the other hand, she wrote not one word in acknowledge^ mentor answer of it. Cautious as she was foresighted, she saved the mother from consciousness of her son's infatuatton, and piqued the son to a deeper infatuation than ever.

The lover coming home at last from his travels uncured, was once more avoided in his own home by the girl, until, by tricking hear into a|private interview, he forced her to her from him a deliberate renewal of his offer of marriage, and a proposition that the union, although secretly solemnized at once, should be kept a secret from the family for a year

This, probably, was the point to which the lady s-maid had wished to bring him for, after a show of hesitation, she agreed to the proposition. Upon pretext that her brother wished her to become his housekeeper, Bhe took leave of her mistress in a day or two after the above interview, and on the same evening

WAS MARRIED PRIVATELY

at Greenwich to her lady's undntiful son. The latter placing his bride, under an assumed name of course, in a cottage in St. John's Wood, was able to conceal the re-' lation from his noble family until it had sign of the customary fruitage but then came a trial and peril which he had not foreseen.

His father insisted that he should marry an heiress of a family distantly related to his own, who had shown a promising partiality for him, and so pressed the demand (hat the young man, who was

not dishonorable by any mean 8, $as upon the verge of a fall confession. From this he was saved, however, by a signal stroke of fate. The former lady's maid died in giving life to a daughter, and, after secretly disposing of the latter, the bereaved husband, concealing his grief as best he could, was at liberty to wed in accordance with his father's will.

FHE SECOND HEROINE.

The daughter of this dead mother, twenty-five years ago, now becomes the heroine of our true story. Her father made arrangements with his late deceased wife's brother to take charge of the girl, for a yearly sum—the child to be reared in his own station of life, and never allow her to know the true name of her father though the latter had humanity enough to stipulate that, in case of future necessity, he should himself, upon properly guarded application, exercise some care over the girl's destiny.

ANOTHER CINDERELLA.

Thus was the offspring of the clandestine marriage consigned to a rude home near Manchester, England, where, taking her uncle for her sire, and enjoying few opportunities for education ana social refinement, she grew to young womanhood in a beauty and freedom of manners favoring the lowly maternal strain of her nativity. In social ambition, however, she did not inheritiFrom her mother for her first and ardently accepted lover was a young workman in a factory, and an Irishman at that.

AN UNFORTUNATE ATTACHMENT. S In some scene of violence incidental to a "strike" of the "operatives" in the factory for which he worked, the young man was so unfortunate as to be involved in the killing of a foreman who had re sisted the trades movement and, upon being duly tried therefor, was sentenced to transportation for life. The_ effect of this unhappy event upon the girl was to drive her at first nearly mad, and then inspire her for an adventure worthy her maternal descent. She announced to her uncle—or £er "father," as she thought him—her absolute determination to folicw her affianced to Botany Bay, and passionately demanded the money to pay her passage thither. HOW SHE FOUND OUT HER PATERNITY.

Laughing at the idea of possessing that amount, but ultimately falling into a furious drunken rage at her tearful pertinacity, her worthless guardian at last bade her write for what she wanted to her true father, in London. He subsequently endeavored to retract the revelation, as only a ioke but the girl, in her frenzy for assistance from some source, violently declared that she was sure he had told the truth, and would apply to the authorties to "right her" if he did-not obtain for her the money she required.

Frightened by her demeanor and threat, the fellow ventured to write to his noble brother-in-law—now Jsucceeded to father's title—in London, for so much money on the gir'ls account, and was agreeably surprised te find the exact sum at once remitted to the girrt own address, though without a word of response. Too much absorbed in thought of her departed convict lover to care or think of anythihg else at that time, our heroine accepted the mysterious bounty as though it had dropped from the air, and took immediate passage with it for Australia,

BLIGHTED HOPES.

Alas for her hopes, which must have been very vague at best—she reached the penal colony only to find that the man for whose sake she had made the weary journey had been shot and killed while trying to escape from prison. Heartbroken at this miserable ending of her miserable romance, she wrote to her uncle that she wished never to eee^ England again, and tpok humble domestic^ service in Australia that she might remain near the grave of her lover.

CURIOUS TURNS OF FORTUNE'S WHEEL. The letter found the uncle upon a deathbed, to which he had been brought prematurely by his evil career, and was, by his dying direction, forwarded to one of the noblest houses in London. Another and later death has completed Time's revenges. Scarcely six months ago the father of the so-long-disowned daughter, after a childless second marriage and a life of alternations from the turf to repentance, departed this world, leaving with his family solicitor the power and order to recall his child from Australia and invest her with her rightful name and inheritance.

Such is the denouement of the story so briefly mentioned, as to its culminating point by the Australian paper above quoted from and we presume no one is prepared to impeach its truth. There is nothing impossible or improbable about it, and we conclude with the hope that Lady Morton may have a good time enjoying her $200,000 per annum, and the warm friendship of those whom her wealth may attract towards her.
