one son, Joseph Hedges, who emigrated to America, settled in Maryland, and died in 1732. At tho Convention of the Hedges in Cincinnati last year eighty-four members of the family were present. The prevailing opinion there was that the estate awaiting the American heirs was that of Sir Charles Hedges. Mr. Jayne, however, is persuaded that that is a mistake, and that Sir Charles Hedges never had a son Charles. The Hedges Association selected 1). T. W. Hedges, of Cynthiana, Ky , as President. It wx* found that the family of Hedges are scattered throughout many States.

Speaking of the work, a writer says: It is indeed fortunate for the community that an author so well endowed with every qualification for the work has engaged in its preparation. His name is

The Widow Merrit of Goshen, Mo., read in the Cincinnati Enquirer a suggestion that President Arthur might wisely I seek iu the west a lady qualified to be mistress of the White House. Sho wrote I at once to the editor: “when I saw your advice I immediately said to myself, I will ask you if you would write to Pres'ident Arthur, and, if he has Dot already taken some one, I would ask him to try ilo for tnrec or six months, and this for no salary or reward. I only want to get in and take the responsibility for a time, and then, should he not find me all I promise, I will give it up.” Mrs. Merritt was for years housekeeper of her late husband’s hotel in Louisville, and she thinks the experience there gained would enable her to “ take entire charge of the White House from top to bottom.” She takes paint to state, lest there should be some misapprehension, that she wishes the President to take her as a house-

keeper and not as a wife.

AMERICAN LADIES.
