BALTIMORE, Mtf febl2-de0dwl7 mm A Letter. Jntit Come te Light, In which the Poet Denie Drinking. Baltimoee. April 3. -In to-morrow's Baltimore American will appear a let ter written by Edgar Allan Poe to Dr. J. E. Snodgrass, formerly editor of the Baltimore Saturday Visitor, in which Poe defends himself from the charge of intemperance which has so long pre- vaued against mm. xne letter was found by the widow of Dr. Snodgrass a lew days ago and was written while Poe was on the staff of Graham's Mag azine, in .rmiacteipnia. xne Mr. .Bur ton referred to in the letter was the editor of the Gentleman's Magazine. The letter is dated Philadelphia, April l, 1841, ana is in reference to charges of intemperance made against Poe by Burton. Poe writes to Dr. Snodgrass : 1 have to thank you for your defense of myself. You are a physician, and I presume no physician can have difficul ty in detecting the drunkard at a glance. x ou are, moreover, a literary man, well read in morals. You will never be brought to believe that I could write what 1 daily write, as 1 write it, were 1 as tnis villain would induce tnose who know me not to believe. In fine, I pledge you before God the solemn word of a gentleman that I am temperate even to rigor. From the trour in which I first saw this basest of calumniators to the hour in which I retired from his office in uncontrollable disgust at his chicanery, arrogance, ignorance and brutality, nothing stronger than water ever passed my lips, it is, however, due to candor that 1 inform you upon what foundation he has erected his slanders. , At no period of my life was I ever what men call intemperate. I never was in the habit of intoxication. 1 never drunk drams, etc. But. tor a brief period, while I resided in Kich mend and edited the Messenger, 1 cer tainly did give way, at long intervals, to' the temptation held out on all sides by the spirit of Southern conviviality. My sensitive temperament could not stand an excitement which was an everyday matter to my companions. In short, it sometimes happened that I was completely intoxicated. For some days after each excess I was invariably confined to bed. But it is now quite four years since I have abandoned every kind of alcoholic drink four years, with the exception of a single de viation, which occurred shortly alter my leaving Burton, and when 1 was in duced to resort to the occasional use of cider, with the hope of relieving a nerv ous attack. You will thus see, trankly stated, the whole amount of my sin You will also see the blackness or that heart which could revive a slander of this nature. Neither can you fail to perceive how desperate the malignity of the slanderer must be how resolute he must be to slander and how slight the grounds upon which he would build up a defamation since he can find nothing better with which to charge me than an accusation which can be disproved by each and every man with whom I am in habit of daily inter course. 1 have now only to repeat to you, in general, my solemn assurance that my habits are as far removed from intemperance as the day irom the night. My sole drink is water. Proponed International JTIcdical Con gress It is proposed to hold in London dur ing the hrst week in next August an international Medical uongress, ana the arrangements are already sufficient ly advanced to warrant the belief that it win oe tne largest ana most impor tant, gathering of the kind ever held. Four thousand invitations have been sent out to medical men in all parts of the world, and the responses indicate that at least half of this number will attend. Some of the most eminent men in the profession in England take an active interest in the proposed con gress, which will be presiaea over oy Sir James Paget, and ot which tne Queen and Prince of Wales have con sented to be patrons. Four general ad dresses will be given by as many men of distinguished international reputa tion, representing France, Germany, America and England. iroiessor Huxley, who is a' member of the Royal College of Surgeons, as well as a man of science, has accepted the responsi bility of delivering the English ad dress. In the vast range of topics which the discussions and papers will embrace, perhaps none will excite a livelier interest than military surgery and medicine. The chief subjects un der this head will be hygiene of armies and fleets, the health of soldiers at home and abroad, and the best means of extending to field and other tempo rary hospitals the recent improvements in the treatment ot wounds and inju ries by what is called the antiseptic method. Jurisdiction of Justices of the Peace. Among the acts passed by the Gener al Assembly at its late session was one to amend section 11, chapter 92, laws of 1879. as follows: "That section eleven, of chapter nine- tv-two. of the laws ot one thousand eight hundred and seventy-nine, be amended by striking out an alter tne word Munsdiction in the sixth line oi such section to the word 'if in the sev enth line, and inserting in lieu thereof the words 'of all offences whereof ex clusive original jurisdiction is given lustices of the peace. The amended act gives jurisdiction ot all offences whereof exclusive origin; 1 jurisdiction is given justices of the peace, to the superior, interior or Criminal Courts, if some justice of the peace shall not within six months after the commission of the offence have pro ceeded to take official cognizance of the same, whereas the original act merely permitted those courts to assume juris diction of affrays, assaults and assaults and batteries. Beards In the Administration. Washington Star. The new administration presents great variety in the way of facial adorn ment. It illustrates all styles, in fact, except the smooth or entirely shaven face. The President wears a full beard, with mustache, while the Vice-Presi dent contents himself with side-whisk ers, and what the little girls call "eye brows over his mouth." Of the cabinet, one wears full beard, with mustache, two indulge in side-whiskers only, three sport a mustache pure and simple, while one satisnes nimseii wilii an lm perial, or small goatee. The first is Secretary Blaine: the next two are Secretaries Windom and Kirwood ; the following three Secretary Lincoln, Postmaster-General J ames and Attor ney-General MacVeagh ; the last Secre taries Hunt The President is the only one of the group who shows inclination to baldness, and the only members of his cabinet whose hair is gray are Sec retary Blaine and Hunt Mr. Mac Veagh, it may be added, is the only one wno parts nia xiaix iu me unauie.

Philadelphia Press. The "Rova! Parlor" of the Continen tal Hotel, so known from the fact that it has been occupied by Dom Pedro, Emperor ef Brazil; Albert Edwards, Prince of Wales; the Grand Duke Alexis, and ex-President Grant, was yesterday eveningrfenanted by a lady who, lor tne next ten raontas at lease, will wear the title of "Queen of Beau ty." This is Miss Louise Montague, a member of the variety-theatre profes sion who has Deen seiectea oy Mr. Forepaugh as the winner of his prize of $10,000 for the handsomest woman in the country. Miss Montague represents no marked type, in complexion she is a semi-brunette. Her lips are sugges tive of a cherry, " teeth regular and pearly, and visible at every smile through a large but not disproportion ate mouth; large, expressive brown eyes, a symmetrical nose and an intelli gent cast of countenance. This is her picture in repose, in conversation and she is possessed of a fund of spark ling talk every feature is animated, and her flashing eyes and health tinted cheeks, coupled with a vivacious man ner, lend an additional charm to her demeanor. She is of about average height and medium figure, and boasts of a dainty little foot. Her hair brown is worn in frizzes, commenced at the top of the head and falling in graceful waves low on the forehead. The Queen of Beauty is a native of the Ninth ward, New York city, where she was born about twenty-one years ago. She has been en the stage some four years. The selection was made from more than 3,000 portraits and after interviews between Mr. Forepaugh and several of the candidates. Miss Mon tague will appear daily as Lalla Rookh in the grand street pageant, which is to be one of the features of Forepaugh's show. Life and Garde. The following kaleidoscopic view of existence shows what an adept Wilkins is at paragram : Man s lite is a game of cards. First it is "cribbage." Next he tries to "go it alone" at a sort of "cut, shuffle and deal" pace. Then he "raises" the "deuce" when his mother "takes a hand in, and contrary to Hoyle, "beats the little joker with her five." Then with his 'diamonds he wins the "queen of hearts." Tired of "playing a lone hand," he expresses a desire to "assist" his fair "partner," "throws out his cards," and the clergyman takes a ten dollar bill out of him on "a pair. She "orders him up" to build fires. Like a " Knave ne joins tne "ciuos, wnere ne often gets "high," which is "low," too. if he keeps "straight he is oftentimes 'flush. He grows old and "bluff, sees a "deal of trouble, when at last ne 'shuffles" off his mortal coil and "pass es in his cheeks," and he is "raked in" by a "spade." Life's fitful "game" is ended, and he waits the summons of Gabriel's "frump," which shall "order him up." A Pin in aiGirls Xhroat Three Tears. Miss De Frane Gale, ayotraglady of Norwich, N. Y., has been ill for up wards of three years with a bad cough, which did not yield to treatment, and the physician pronounced her disease consumption. During the latter part of last week, for three successive days, she coughed more than usual, and on Sat urday morning, during a severe- spell, she coughed up a pin. The action of the acids ot th") system has reduced it to about one-half the original length, and the lower part of the remaining portion was worn as small as the finest silk. How long the pin has been swal lowed she does not know, but from the fact that she is now rapidly recovering, it is supposed to have been about three "years, the period of her illness. Bishop of Natchez. Rev. Francis J anssens will be con secrated as Bishop of Natchez, at the Cathedral in Richmond, Va May 1, when Archbishop Gibbons, of Balti more, will officiate. Mr. Janssens was educated in Holland and Belgium, and came to this country in 1868. He was stationed at the Cathedral at Rich mond, where he served as private sec retary to Bishops McGill, Gibbons and E.eane. He was nominated or recom mended for Bishop of Natchez about three months ago, and the papal bull appointing him has just been received, Natchez is in the province of New Or leans. Notice to Notaries. Wilmington Star. An act was passed by the Legisla ture, at the recent session, limiting the term of office of notaries public. Here tofore there has been no limit to the time, and there has been some confu sion in the matter of records. All no taries now holding commissions will have to renew them by July 1st, or their offices will be declared vacant.
