BROADBRIM'S I Y. LETTER.
Ulttcrer tlmn tbo cry thai went out of
Hamuli was tlic wall of poor destitute,
starving, forsaken Jrs. Henderson, as she
leaped from tlio roof of a four-story bulld
lti on Second Avenuo and dashed her des
perato brains out on tbo pavement. A
few almost Illegible lines, on a bit of soiled
and crumpled paper, tells bcr pitiful story
a story so harrowing and sotrowful,
that the heart aches and tbo tears well
Into the eyes as you ponder over It. Once
she had a happy homo and a toying bus-
band, but the husband took to drink and
squandered bis money, so It Is said, and
eventually they wcro reduced to want
Then slcknass came, and the husband
drifted Into tbo hospital, leaving the poor
wife to fight the battlo of llko alone. No
person need starve in New York who
knows tho city and Its Institutions; hut
bow many know them? how many know
where to apply or what to do? To a
stranger, I know nothing more desperateh
hopeless than to be In a great city without
money or friends. Reduced to tlio direst
poverty. Mrs. Henderson refused to beg;
ber husband bad at one time been a book
acent, and she tried to earn enough tobuj
bread at that. She applied for work da
after day and failed; she answered adver
tisements for housekeepers only to find
that they were Inserted by wretches whose
homo should be In tho Penitentiary.
Wherever she went she met Insult or re
fusal, till a couple of days beforo she ended
tier sorrowiul lire. The rain came pour
ing down as she sallied out to sell a few
pamphlets ber husband had left ber. The
cold winds howled through tho streets,
and with her feet wet, and herself drenched
to the skin, she went from door to door.
Not a morsel of food had crossed her Hps
for nearly a dav and a half, and as night
fell she came back to tier cheerless garret
under the eaves, and sat down chilled to
the bone, to think upon her misery, and to
speculate, perchance, if there was any
thing in the great hereafter bitterer or
more sorrowful than that she was sufferhic
"hero. She took that bit of soiled and
crumpled paper and told the pitiful slori
of ber struggle, then catching up a knife
she drew it across her throat and opened
the veins lu her wrist. But death was
slow in coming, so she cllmcd out of Iiei
attic window to tho roof. . One last look
one desperate plunge and all was oyer.
"Mad from Life's history,
Glad of death's mystery.
Swift to be hurled,
Anywhere, anywhere,
Out of the world 1"
Who can read this account without a
lurlll or horror? Merciful God I is it
possible that bete in a city wl leb rates its
wealth at thousands of millions, whose
granaries are vrsair-'-.l mm abundance,
whose stores are In r ': the o arth's
richest gifts, and whcbs luu vaults are
bursting with silver and gold, that tli
numnicst creature that God ever made
should perish for want of food. Two days
before, the telegraph Informed that Cornel
ius Vandeibllt had paid One Huudred
mousauu uonars .or a small picture to
hane upon his wall, and when It hani!
there It will cost One Hundred and Thlrty-
inree 'l uousauu dollars, for ho must pay
iniriy-uiree Thousand dollars more for
the privilege of landing It on our shores,
Five or ten dollars would have been sal
vation to Mrs. Henderson, but slio had it
not and so she died. Hut what a story
that soiled bit of paper tells. Thestrugg'e
ol virtue for life, if alio wanted, she could
have sold herself, body and soul, and have
obtained all the comforts that Earth can
give, by bartering for them her hope of
neaven. Everything had drifted away
irom ner out ner good name, and she
carried that spotless with ber into the pre
sence of .her Jakcr, trusting to the mercy
of him who ljath said "Come unto me all
ye that are weary and heavy laden, and 1
will give you rest." How did this occur?
you ask. I don't know. For while she
was starving to death, thero were thousands
In this city looking for iust such cases.
who would have given her food and shel
ter and employment and have tided her
over the evil lime. New York Is a great
city; bui It Is neither uncharliab'e or heart
less. Let a case of worthy dlstiess become
known, and on the Instant, hundreds are
ready to glye Immediate aid. For cases
like Mrs. Henderson's It seems Impossibly
to make adeq uate provision ; their extremity
is not Kticiwu tin tue catastrophe comes,
ana men itiey nave passed ail human aid,
it is mournful, H Is shocking. What cau
be done to help the genteel poor? All can
be saved; how can we reach them? Some
thing must be done but bow?
Hut while vfotthy poverty starves aud
perishes, bold faced crime thrives and
flourishes, and Its high priests go clad in
purple and linen. Before mo lies a paper
called Cupid," published in this city, the
ostensible object of which Is to procure
husbands and wlyes for those who desire
to get married. This paper Is circulated
" through the country towns and villages
tnrougnout tne united Slates, and ruin
follows in its track. In every town and
Tillage are plenty of male and female fools.
juuug auu om. in tins aeiectable paper
are aayertlsemeuts for husbands and wlyes.
Just suppose a case. Here is such aw
advertisement, of a young aud handsome
bachelor, age 80, health good, connections

for his wife, who has an income equal to
his own. lie proposes to tako a trip to

Now, does any sane girl suppose that a
man of that discrlptlon would hitve to go
hunting about shabby matrimonial agencies
for a wife? It ny, the girls wuere he liyed
would almost in. k their lie'-j ttylng to
catch him. Yet (hero a ' uousanils of

only say that the girl who atlemms to
root wiin any matrimonial axeuoy, or
who pUces the slightest faith In their
fraudulent advertisements, walks straight
to ruin with bei- eyes open.
It seems impossible to guard my patrons
from the traps that are continually set for
them. Their name Is legion, and they
have the heads of hydra Last week a
flaming advertisement was sent to papers
all over the country stating that the
'Ton-Tribune," the most Influential He
pub lean paper In the city of Urooklny,had
akuu the following novel method of In
creasing Its circulation. The proprietor
nau placed an oruiuarv glass pint jar in

the subscription was only thlity cents,
tnero was twenty cents c ear nrolit. Wow.

It rains could seo through such a bald
fraud as this, and et to iutlcc bv his uiall
received at the Brooklyn post office this
week, there are thousands taken in by this

I am sorr- to sa it, but such fools
deserve to be fleeced. It Is nnuecessarv to
tay that there Isnol'ost-Tribune published
in Brooklyn as a newspaper, and there
neycr has been. A fraudulent sheet made
up of a lot of old stereotypes which have
been worn out on I'ateut outsldes, have
uccn pressed into service, and these are
headed rost-Ttlbune. Vol. XIII., No. 7.

A very funny case occurred In Brooklyn
last week, where a Husslan woman turned
up as tbe claimant of a rich dry coodi-
inerchant, to whom she said she had been
marileil In Ititssln tweut. vears aco. The
merchant established an alibi furnishing
conclusive proof that he had been in the
