The intelligent correspondent cf the New Orleans Bee has some lemnrks upon the struggle between Chtirch and State that has been for some time raging1 ini Mexico The church, we are told, is violently agitat ed and is employing all her rast-resources to prevent the separation, and in this has enlisted the very potent ait! of the women. The two great questions are, the law re quiring the clergy to sell thir landed pro perty and religious toleration as provided in the new constitution. The first bf these decress the Lerdo decree has j been bu. partially carried into fleet ; the holders of ibe.property being perinitied three month in which to dispose of it, but' if not solI be fore the 25th of September it isjto be put up at public auctftin. The Government appears to be firm iri its purpose . Reft rrinir to the wealth of the Mexican churches the Philadelphia American says: j "The Archbishop, with nine Bishops under him, all having cathedrals and chap ters, except the Prelate of Sonora.j with 1K prebendaries and canonries, 1,200 1 parishes, and a regular arid secular clergy amount ing to 10.000 persons, was no inrfQNsi!er.t ble personage. Of the regular c!ejrry 2 500 reside in the capital, and the orders of the Dominicans, Franciscans, Carmelites, am! Merced a riane possess 150 convents. The salary of the Archbishop is 8130 000 per anno?, and that of the Bishop of Puebla 110.000. The remaining Bishops receive altogether about $400,000 more. It has been extremely difficult to ascertain the real value of the'general property of the church. Some years since the Archbishop admitted the following figures: i i Real estate, in tow n -and country $18 000 000 Churches, h.wiw. ctatvriiia. funiituro., 1 jewels, and precious vessels, - 62 000 00(1 Floating capital, . - . ... . j in UOU 0i Total ..... (90 O. 0 UOti But at present it is generally believed that the total mentioned is not above one quar ter the amount. The Signor Lendo de Tegada, who is now at the bead of the finances, asserts, with perfect confidence, 'that the real property of the clergy is of the value of from $250,000 000 to $300,000,000. In the city of Mexico, containing five thou sand houses," -orth $80,000,000, the church owns one-half, and the income bas leen estimated by the Minister at fully: $20,000,' 000 The etl tes in morturain alone amount to $50,000,000. A single balustrade, about 300 feet long, in the National Cathedral, is supposed to be worth $1,000,000 Is U any wonder that the people are impoverished ?" EXTENSIVE CONFLAGRATION IN WEST TROY. Troy, N. Y., Aug. 2 -Seventy thou sand dollars worth .f property was destroy1 ed by fire in the village of West Troy this morning. The following is a list of the principal property destroyed: Lamby's carriage establishment and re sidence, owned by E. & P. Wiswdl John Perrtgo's dwellings Patrick Kelly's livery Stable, the dwelling houses of I Win, Cle ments, Win. Crowner, J. D. LobJell and Mr. Cardee. - ' i " All the lumber on the east s'de of the canal from lanal street t the resilience of Ahui. Dyer, was destroyed. It was owned by Smith & Craig and Lee & Hall. Loss of the former is about $15,000 and of the latter $30 000. t The lumber on the opposite bank of the canal caught fire, but not more than $ 1 ,000 worth belonging to Hill &Odgen was des troyed. VICTOR HUGO AND HIS FAMILY. The New York Evening Post learns, from its private correspondence that Vic tor Hugo is improving his exile at Guern sey, by completing his last work, the "Con templations," a poem of ten thousand ver ses, embodying his experiences of human life. A portion of it has already been pub lished. With him are living bis wife, two sonsjihd a daughter, who are all devoted if ihtt nil,lit rf llir'. turn - .

" I I. L.' f .L m . to resemuie nis ia trier. j Madame Hugo is writing a memoir of her husband. She is said to have genuine capacity or the task, and her participation in all that her husband bas done or thou hi during his married life gives her unusual facilities for it. Such a memoir, analog ous in character to that written by Shelly widow, will prove a valuable contribution to literature. Mile Hugo posseses remarka. b!e talent as a pianist, end is a woman of genius. A few friends share with M; Hugo his exile, upon whom the influence exerted "by the poet is somewhat remarkable.' His hatred of Louis 'Napoleon is unrelenting, and the prospect of his' return j to France, while the present dynasty remains in pow er, is very slight . Apparently, however, his exile, alleviated by the presence of. bis family and friendy is not a bitter on, j A FRENCH COUflTESS IN TROUBLE IN NEW YORK. . ' " r '- There is a strange '-and romantic story publishe'd" iu some of the New, York pa pers in which a French countess,' a cap tain in the English army, a missionary, a captain of a vessel, and several custom, bouse officers are strangely mixed up. The Herald says : I J , " It appears that a certain Countess Ron deau, once well known-in literary circles in Paris, found b r way, after traveling over Europe and Asia, to Calcutta, where she became an inmate in the family .of Captain Goodwin of the English army, who induc ed her to take passage in the ship Goo.l Hope for this city, and gave the captain five hundred rupees, to be given her on her arrival in New York.- Among her bag gage were forty packages of valuable, foods, shawls, scarfs, fancy (roods and the like, valued at $20,000 Twenty-five ofJ the packages were consigned to Madame Kondeau.and fifteen to Madame Calmp a, companion of hers. On the arrival the ship at pier No. 2, East river, the go were handed to a custom house officer, who permitted the lady to remove a portion of the baggage to the Lafarge House. She afterwards took all her goods away, the cpt in assuring her that all was riirhl r At first she intended to have taken them to Hurve, but not having to pay any duties1, she came to the conclusion to sell some of them here, and offered them to a purchaser. On last Tuesday the custom house officers matte a seizure of the goods ant! confisca ted them, on the ground that they were con traband. Upon this the lady declared the whole thing a conspiracy to defraud her of goods, antl she inierds to apply at Wash nigton to have herself riirhieil. one char ges the captain with planning a plot a gainst her. I he tifficersof the thip and a missionary, the Rev. Mr. Snyder, declare her to be an improper character, and say that on one occesioh she came on deck m a slight under garment, more surgestiv of comfort in warm weather than modesty I"he name of the informer is kept secret. but in case of a confiscation the informer will get one-fourth of the property, one- fourih will go to the Treason and the re mainder wilt be divided between the collec tor of the port antl the naval officer. The case is now tn stain qvo, but in a few days we will have the decision of the secretary of the Treasury. The Post bas the following in relation to the lady: Madame Rondeau was born in Paris- some 35 or 40 years ago, and when j oung s supposed to have been very beautiful. She was a woman of fashion, antl claims, to have moved in the highest society. At an early age she paid a visit to ihe Court of Spain, and has received large sums of money from the Spanish government, eiih eras indemnification for an indignity then offered .h-r by a Spanish prince, or as a compensation for services rendered. She also visited Russia, where he moved in high lifrf, and was finally seized by the poiic", by the Empress' orders, placed on hoard a British steamer and sent to Lon- lon. After a short sojourn in England she came to . Arneric i under the protection of a wealthy New Orleans cotton broker, visi ted Boston, INew York, JNiagara rails. incinnati, ISew Orleans and Havana. From the latter city she returned to Pans via iew York. Her next adventure was to the East Indies, where she travelled ex tensively, visiting many places far.inlatid ami residing for a time at Batavia, Calcut ta and other larre cities. At Calcutta she formed the acquaintance of a Col. Goodwin, an officer in the British East India Company's service, ami it was through his influence that she was indue ed to make this, her second visit to this country. I he seizure at the Lafarffe Mouse was made by officers Ginlfrey, Hubbell and Ba ker, who went to the hotel with a search warrant. Madame at first stoutly denied having more baggage than the four or five trunks in her. room, but finally confessed that the forty boxes seized, which were stored in another a part mewl, were her property. . . I he officers have the most- mtnnte mfor nation of all her plans, anil are satisfied that it is a clear case of smuggling ; anil, that if a prosecution was pressed, she would be subjected to fine and imprison ment. Our reporter visited Madame . R. at he room this forenoon, accompanied byan in telligent younjr Frenchman as interpreter. Madame is a healthy looking "Frenchwo man, slightly past the prime of life, but re taining traces of her youthful beauty, ami exhibits a vigorous, sanguine temperament She -declined to make a fuM statement of her troubles at present, promising a thril ling narrative hereafter, but proceeded wnh trreat volii-bility anil in an-iinfiirnant tnau net to descant on the wrongs inflicted upon heron ship-bSard and by the custom-house officers. She asserts that herself, brrfem vie dt chambrt, and her two pts, a mookejj and a poodle, w re treated with great cru. elty and indignity, that two attempts were made to m poison her, as she believes, and that the priest (Rev. Mr. Snyder.) persecu ted her because she was a Catnolie. SCIENTIFIC FACTS. The Londorf Lanret says that there are a quarter of.a million of persons living in Great Britain constantly under ground in the darkness of mines. The average tge of Sheffield workmen is thirty five years; the average age or the dry irrinders of need les very inuch under this figure. The cbiel disease among tailors is fistula; amongst ba kers, scrofula anil skfn diseases; the latter may prevent the flour insect and weevil from irritating the skin of iheir hnnds by rubbing them with oil. The most danger ous part of the painters' trade ig 'flatting, white lent), turpentine and closely heated rooms, generating colic; the remedy is sul pburfc acid, cleanliness, tubs of fresh wa ter, and fresh air; and, as an antidote, the more frequett use of white zinc lead. In the manufacture of lucifer matches heated or aliotropic phosphorus is said to be not so dangerous to the jaw-bones as ordinary phosphorus. TOO MUCH TWISTING. The follies of grown people are frequent ly brought out by children in starling prominence. Two girls of twelve or four teen years passed along Lake street yes terday, surrounded by hoops and trailing long dresses over the dirty pavement. They were novices in the management of such rigging, but determined to acquire the art or die in the attempt. Dd 1 twist too much 2 asked one of the anxious couple,' as she wriggled, along. "Oh, no" said the ills' yt other drooping a little behind to observe her, but if you could raise a little otryour toes as you squirm, it would throw your dress better." CAica-o Press. ROMANCE -JN HUMBLE LIFE Most of our citizens are acquainted with Ann G lea son, a stout, healthy good natur ed lriih woman,' who is frequently employ ed by merchants am! owners of buildings to clean stores, public balls and private res idences. . Her work is generally of-the most laborious description, but Ann is al ways cheerful, and in fact is a universal favorite. Well, Ann has a husband, or at least she had one several years ago.? He is a clever sort of a man, with very little energy, but lots of good nature. He was a pedlar, and carried on his vocation in this neighbor hood, making scarcely enough to keep bis family from want. About the commencement of the Califor nia excitement. Ann's husband started for Vihe land of gold to better his fortunes, leav ing his wife and two children m inis city. Ann received no- tidings of him for several years, until finally some acquaintance hap pened to see the name ot uieason in tne list of occupants of the Sing Sing prison Ann scarcely believed that her husband had become a State prison convict, but in order to be certain, she scrtped her little earnings together and visited Sing Sing, where she soon fount! that the prisoner was not her husband, and returned to her soli tary home with mingled feelings of joy and grief Soon afterwards Ann was informed by a fii'iid of her husband who was with him m California that Mr .Gleason had d ted in the mines, ami the li" lie he had gathered was all used to defray the expenses of his illness and funeral. 1 he sad news dispell ed all tiope, and Ann relinquished the idea -of ever seeing herhitsbnnd a tram. lit the meantime she continued to labor, early and lace, securiuif the ool wilt of all who hail occasion fr her services, ami she not only supported herself and children in comparative comfort, but had actually sav ed a nice little sum. which she was about investing in a small house ami lot. One day last week a gentleman of this city returned from California, and to Ann's niter asionishment and joy inlormed -her that her husband was al.ve and well in California, and had saved considerable money. He had frequently written to his wife and sent her- drafis for considerable a m Hints and was surprised and alarmed at not hearing from her. She, poor soul, not dreaminjr that she had a friend in the world who would write to her, had never thought o! calling for the 1 iters an! consequently they had been sent to the dead letter office at Washington. " On learning that her husband was well, Ann lost no time in writing to him, and she also wrote to Washington to enquire auout the money-letters sent by her hus band. In reply to her letter to Washing ton she received a letter from the Depart ment intimating that the letters and drafts are there, but requiring her to state the a moutit and. number of drafts. This, of course, she cannot do; and n fall history oi the case has been matte out by her fuend, which has been properly certified and sent on to the Department, with satisfactory re ferences to persons residing in this city. It is presumed that this will be sufficient to warrant the authorities in sending her the letters ami drafis from her husband. The change in AnrCs prospects has not '.set her up" above work. We saw her je.-terday afternoon busily ensraged in cleaning the office of the Board of Educa i ion, and toiling as laboriously as if she was not really worth more money than the clerk and all the commissioners of educa ion put together. Every one who knows Ann will rejoice at her srood fortune. Hgracusn (A- Y.) Standard. ' - ROOMS TO LET.
