to the top of the tall and stately spire of that handsome piece ot architecture to repair its lightning rod They commenced building their stack of ladders just above the clock dial on the east side of the steeple and slowly and cautiously worked their way Up ward Inch by inch until at last they stood upon the cross surmounting the noble spire two hundred and forty feet from the ground When they attained that dizzy height a cheer burst from the great crowd ot people that was gathered in the street watching them The men waved their bats in acknowledgment of the compliment and continued their

traveling together in the EaaL" Mr Edward Uoyd la a mem ber of Ike English bar who has been at Athens for some little lime past in connec tion we believe with the affairs of the Pirwus Railway and he was joined by his wife and child at the beginning of the year Jl remembered that Mr Vyner was one ot the bunting party who escaped the sad accident on the Ure when Sir Cbarlea Siingaby and aevei al others ware drowned last year and it is a strange coincidence that another Mr Lloyd was then in the boat and was saved with him The Secretaries of the Legation were of coarse stationed at Athens in the course of their duty It is declared at Athens that the War Minister al first refused to grant a military es cort on the ground that brigandage had censed to exist but ''he afterwards so far relented as to order fonr gen darmes to accompany the party If we cannot at once accept a statement of the kind as absolutely authentic and it is not Indeed supported by tbe intelligence derived from Lora Maucaster's letters there are es pecial reasons why iu accuracy should be thoroughly examined A telief was certainly entertained at Athens throughout the winter that an organized tend of brigands infested tbe Marathon Road aud our correspondent at Athens went sb far as to name tbe chief of tbe band iu a letter published by us on the 23d of October last The Athenians did not scrapie to attribute complicity in tbe de signs of Capt Spanos to persons of high posi tion it Is remarkable too that as soon as tbe capture was reported at Athens it was positively declared to be part of a po litical movement designed to embarrass the government and produce a change of Minir iry The tragical issue of the capture dispels this suggestion but the fact that it was started and accredited remains To tarn however to tbe travelers They set out as we have said early lu tbe moruiag and were permitted to cross the mountains and survey the famous field of battle iu peace but while traversing a narrow deliie on their return they were sud denly attacked by about thirty heavily armed brigands One ofathe gendarmes was killed on the spot aud another received a wound of whitb he died tbe next morning The parly being thus overpowered the ladles and the child withlhe two remaining gendarmes were after a while liberated and sent to Athens The guide remained with the prisoners and served as Interpreter between them and the brigands After a day spent among the mountains the terms of ransom were arranged and one of tbe prisoners Lord Mnncaster was dispatched to Athens to negotiate the payment Com plete amnesty aud 1000000 drachmas bad been demanded but there is an unavoidable indeli nileness in tbe report of tbe sum Greece has a forced paper currency and the only silver coin found

Mcarland came in from the cuc tom bouse where be bad been employed since the first of ebruary as clerk in tbe office procured lor him through the influence of tbe Sinclairs I was standing al Mr door In tbe front bail aud be was just banding me some manuscript which be had offered to lend me to make use of If I could in some lit erary work Mr Richardson's room was used as bls working room and at this lime as at all parts of tbe dav he bad with him a stenographer messenger boy and artist who were engaged iu his literary works When Mcarland came in he objected to my going to room to which 1 replied that I had not been in and was not In tbe habit of going there and even if I had been iu there It was not a private room but an office In the day lime With this tbe matter dropped aud I supposed Ibis was all of it but in a few moments Mcarland commenced to say something again on the same sflbject 1 saw that he was in ill humor and 1 supposed bo wished to make anything tbe pretext for oue of bis passions and I said little or nothing rom this be worked himself up into a great fury in which 1 leti him to go to my necessary work at the theater lie continued In this rage through tbe niubt and 1 spent a terrible night with him All through the next day the 20tb he remained ut home abusing and tormenting me He used to me expressions which I never could forgive or endure and still harping on tbe fact of my being at Richardson's room asked me before Percy who was all tbe time present Richardson ever kiss you Have you ever been in his room alone with him and others which I considered insulting and unpardonable He was under tho in fluence ot liquor all day remaining at home and going out every litile while to the nearest bar room to drink and then coming in still more furious At last he declared that he was willing to be separated trom me and that I might go home to my and leave him When 1 assented to this be wanted to call in sum ol iiiv friends and talk the matter over Gutore them oui i io take couuael Iroui any one till my father could be sent for and I only prevented him from rashing out and calling In some of my friends by represent ing to him iht ho waa then so Intoxicated that his cause would be prejudiced by that fact On the evenlug of ibe 20th before going to the theater I secreted bis razors his pocket knife my scissors and all articles I considered dangerous us I frequently did on such occas ions aud left him When I came homo be was still raging He frequently bad made threats ot committing suicide often going out of doors with tuat avowed purpose tin this occasion aliout midnight he bade me an nnusnally solemn eternal farewell and told me this lime that he was certainly going out to destroy him self He bad done this so many times that I said nothing and made no effort to detain him At lhe door be hesitated and asked if I had nothing to say In thia last parting 1 said 1 can only say that 1 nm hopelessly sorrv fr He went out and in a ftw minutes returned as I knew he would cooled and sobered by the cold night air and then it being nearly morning aa mildly and firmly as I possibly conld I began to talk to him I told him decidedly that I should leave him for ever that 1 had borne wilb patience for many years great outrages from him that ho bad made my life miserable and bad often put me in great dread of my life that I could not endure it any longer that by bls outrageous conduct lor the two days past and by the language be had used when he found me at door he had added tbe last drop to my cup of endurance and 1 should go away from him at ouce Al this he groveled at my feet In most abject penitence He wept and sobbed and begged me to forgive him He confessed Chat be bad wronged me that no woman would have borne with him as I bad done and about day light went to sleep exhausted Next morning I did not allude to my purpose but after see ing him leave the house for office I went to Mr and placed myself un der the protection of his roof and never after wards saw Mcarland except once or twice In the presence of others CHAS A STATEMENT Boston May 9 So many mis statements have been made about my
