The convention of the National Wo men Suffrage Association met in Phila delphia Monday. Mrs. Elizabeth Cady Stanton presided. The convention will continue its session two days. Gen. Garabaldi, while driving, a short time ago, met with a severe accident. The carriage was upset, and his head and limbs were badly bruised against the stones. A party of Philadelphians, including Mr. Hamilton Disston andSecretary of the Commonwealth Quay, have gone to Florida on a fishing and hunting tour, to be absent three months.

The pews of the Brooklyn Taberna cle were rented at auction Monday night for the first time in the history of the church. About 350 pews were rented, for which the hxed valuation is 816,796, and the amounts or premiums bid was $3,622. The first choice was secured for $140 by one of the trustees. In a recent case in Philadelphia Judge Biddle took occasion to pay his respects to the tendency of sentiment alised on the subject of crime, which be declared is gradually putting justice on the defensive. In the trial now going on at Washington, he said, a stranger might suppose that the judge, the Dis trict attorney, or, perhaps, the Presi dent of the United States was being being tried. "He certainly never would imagine that it was Guiteau." American. Settled its England; New York Times. Of Americans in England, Mr. Win- ans is by far the most lavishly expen sive. He pays $50,000 for deer forests in Scotland, and in London Hveg in a palatial abode on Carlton House Ter. race. His neighbor there is MrStur gis, of Baring Brothers, who also lives very handsomely and exercises a splen did and most rehned hospitality. Mr, Sturgis has besides a charming retreat a few miles from London. Sir Curtis Lampson, the only American citizen who has received hereditary honors from the British crown, has a tine house in Eaton-square, where for years Mr. Peabody lived with him. He also owns a delightful country seat near Brighton, and has a forest for he is devoted to deer stalking in Scotland. It is curi ous to note how much more Anglicised the American long resident in London becomes than does his British brother settled here become Americanized. Those children, for instance, of Mr, Russell Sturgis and Sir Curtis Lamp son, who have been bred in England, look entirely on it as their home. The sons have been sent to schools and col leges there and the formed their life's friendships. The daughters marry Eng lishmen. Mr. Russell Sturgis's daugh ter married the eldest son of the late Sir Hamilton Seymour; Miss Lampson is the wife of Mr. Locker, well-known for his vers de societe, whose mother was Lady Augusta Stanley's sister. Af fluent English people settled here are, with their children, frequently visitors to the old country, but Americans set tled in England become very rare visi tors here, and their children usually grow up in all respects English, with. generally, conservative political ten dencies. medical Nonsense.

Those who have at last got reconciled to enjoying most poisons freely tobac co, Deer, wine, spirits, conee need not have scruples lest thev should in jure their health, or shorten their lives or set a bad example ; for a close atten tion to medical opinion will, if they en tertain such notions, entirely reassure tnem. I notice that poisons, like fashionable health resorts, come up and go out just as the medical imagination or the pop ular craze may happen to jump. Une year we are told how a drop of tobacco juice killed a cat; the next year beer orings rheumatism, wine is responsi ble for gout, spirits for insanity, and conee ror bile. Tea wa3 mv last strong hold. Sir Henry Thomson had informed the world that afternoon tea would not be so bad if it were not for the cream taken with it So I left off cream and was comparatively happy with milk : when, to my horror, I learned from an other distinguished medical authority that tea would be even wholesome and nourishing, if people always took cream with it, but that milk in tea sets up a peculiarly acid fermentation within, most inimical to digestion. This last shock was tremendous ; but upon re covering from it, I determined to eat, drink, smoke, and be merry, whatever doctors mignt write about my food and my liquor.

The final result of the revision of the German census of the 1st of December 1880, shows the population of the em pire to have been 45,234,061, viz- 22,185, 433 males, 23148,628 females. Between 1875 and 1880 the increase of population was 2,506,689.

Raleigh News &nd Observer. A day or so since we paid a visit to this institution, and were, as always, mpst hospitably treated by Capt. Marsh, deputy warden. But few visitors on entering the gloomy portals of the Pen itentiary think what a little world is shut within those walls, and how much material for romance, but most of all for sad reflection on human weakness and frailty, is to be found. In the prison there are say 350 convicts, white and colored, male and female old and and young. All criminals, all such of fenders against the rest of the world that they are shut out from sight of it, and from participation in its pleasures or sorrows. They are confined as a punishment, but yet many of them bear it and wear it as lightly as the freest passerby, whose only knowledge of the Penitentiary is from outside views. There are many prisoners for life, wicked looking fellows some of them, who slink by, silent and scowling. Yet others, under setenced for horrid crimes, have a look which does not at all reveal their natures, certainly not to a casual observer. Yesterday one of theHrst men ever placed in the penitentiary was par doned by the Governor, and to-day breathes the free air for the first time in twelve long years. His name is Jno. A. Owens, white, and on the 2d of April, 1867, he murdered Benjamine A. F. Weathers, in Lincoln county. For three years he lay in jail, confined in an iron cage as a desperate criminal. Then he was transferred to the Penitentiary, which he entered January 6, 1860, more than twelve years since. He was only ' 22 years of age when he committed the crime, now he ends his imprisonment a man near 38 years of age. Owens is a man of mild and pleasant manner, and his conversational powers are somewhat marked. He is thin in face and figure, and is no doubt a sufferer from disease. When he committed the crime he was married, but years ago his wire, to whom ne was dead, remar ried, uwens is now a proiessor or re ligion, acd has for years been a regular attendant at the Penitentiary Sabbath school. His talk runs much on reli gious subjects and he expresses an ar dent desire to make known to the world what a marvelous change has been hapily wrought in him. His home in future will be in Alabama, where he has an uncle possessed of considerable means. Efforts have been made for some time to secure for him the pardon now granted. One of the curiosities of the prison is a white man named Lewis Sheror, who has taugnt some uttie gray mice to perform remarkable feats in assend ing and desending minature ladders and ropes, standing in the stocks, bal ancing, etc. He is a half-witted man and becomes sometimes perfectly wild Yet he is always gentle to his little pets, and they are neither afraid of him no others, nut live in the cell with him Tracing: a Mystery. The fact that newspaper men make good detectives has already been de monstrated in seyeral prominent in stances, and it is now illustrated again in the uoppidge case in .New Orleans, On the night of the 27th of December Mrs. M. F. Coppidge was shot as was supposed, by a three-year old child, who was playing with a pistol, no bne else being present at the time except the husband of the unfortunate. The police accepted the husband's explana tion, and let the matter drop, but a re porter of the Times-Democrat, who is said to be a native of Lynchburg, Vir ginia, took it up, and by careful inves tigation has developed so many circum stances of suspicion against the hus band that the. latter has been indicted for murder by the grand Jury.
