The Ecumenical Council.Dr. Ccmmi.vq axd the Cockcil.

"We published, recently, an account ofa correspondence, unlortunately lucouipiele,on a eubket absolutely wltbout precedent Inrecent ages. Tbe Pope lias called a "General Council" for the bib of December next,to assemble nt Roufe. Tbere have been timesIn which such a summons would bavc filledall Christendom with commotion, but in thiscountrv, and at the present day, it is proba-ble euou!!b that the invitation, if not com-monly unknown, Is, at any rate, entirelyunappreciated. Such an event, however,has not occurred for mora than 300 years,and it was only rarely and at ions Intervalsthat It occurred in formertimes. The Coun-cil of Trent, opened in the year 1545, andcontinued till the year 15G3, was the lastGeneral Council, and in all the centuries pre-ceding, tbere were but eighteen others.Councils of less authority succeeded eachother perpetually, but a General or " Ecu-menical" Council was a rare and awfulphenomenon. Its essence was this: thatinasmuch as it represented the Christians oftbe whole inhabited earth, it could not pos-sibly go wrong in its decrees. This Idea wasexpressed very tersely by St. Augustine,when be 6a!d, "Securut judieat totiu orbit,"meaning that when the entire world was onone side in pronouncing an opinion, no op-position need be apprehended; which Isdoubtless true. But what was to be regardedas the entire world, and bow was the entireworld to begot together? Could a GeneralCouncil assemble, except by authority of theFope? When assembled, bad it an authorityequal or superiorto mat 01 me rontiu atone rWould its "Ecumenicity" or universality,be destroyed by the absence of delegates?Ana, it so, accoruing to wnai estimate;How, in short, was it to be ascertainedwhether tbe voice of the real Church Uni-versal bad or had not been so lward on anyparticular occasion as to command the un-hesitating obedience of the Faithful ? Thesequestions, which it would be by no meanseasy to answer, will show readily the author-ity of a Council might be disputed, and bowextraordinary Is the agency which Pius IX,after so long a suspension, has invoked oncemore.

However, the summons has gone forth.addressed io due course to the Christians ofthe whole Inhabited world, schismatics andheretics included. The Pope sent a biddingto tbe Patriarch of Constantinople, repre-senting a Church which repudiates the au-thority of Koine, and he invited also " Pro-testants in general," who, according to Ro-man Catholic doctrine, have strayed stillfarther from the true lold. The Patriarchreturned a distinct refusal, so that the "Ecu-menicity" of the twentieth General Councilmay already appear questionable, but fromProtestants, His Holiness has received a dif-ferent response. Dr. Cumraing was "pleasedrather than otherwise," with tbe Pope's invi-tation, and resolved on accepting it. Being,however Us he unpretendingly puts it, "insome degree acquainted with tbe subject,"be Judiciously determined to communicatefirst with Archbishop Manning, in order todiscover. If possible, what kind of receptionhe, asa Protestaut, was to expect. The Arch-bishop, with his custotaary coartesy, repliedthat Ibe modes of procedure to be observedat the Council would be determined by .thesupreme authority; but he was obligingenough to send his correspondent copies ofcertain works in which useful and pertinentinformation might be found. In one of theseworks there was certainly a passage verymuch to the point, for it contained nothingless than the infallible judgment of a Pope"on the reception to be accorded to aschismatic or heretic appearing and claimingto be beard at a General Council." Fromthis ordinance. Dr. Cumming learnt that as apreliminary proceeding be would be requiredto "give in his adhesion to tho tribunaland the judge," or, In other words, to recog-nize tbe authority of the Council accordingto its own pretensions, and to promisesubmission to its behests, under penaltiesexceedingly serious. Not liking this pros-pect, he addressed hlmsell directly to Romefor more distinct or satisfactory assurance,but to this communication he has not yetreceived a reply, and the correspondencetherefore stops short at Its most interestingpoint.

The truth Is tbe Pope and bis advisers arein a little dilemma. It is hardly to be supposed tuey desire mcattenaanceoi Dr. uu ru-

ining, but then why did they sent him theinvitation? They sent it as they sent a similar bidding to the Eastern Patriarch, for tbesake or the "Ecumenicity" ol the intendedCouncil, but It was never meant to be accep-ted, nor would anybody, Indeed, ailer read-ing Dr. Cumming's letter to ourselves, beprepared to anticipate much advantage fromthe meeting. Dr. Cumming proposes, If

be given him, to explain to theprelates in Conncll assembled, why he andhis brother Protestants, reject the authorityand doctrines of Rome, hut thongh this de-

monstration wonld, we doubt not, with allthe "candour, courtesy, and charily" whichour correspondent promises, it could hardlybe a very agreeable, nor, we fear, a very Im-

proving lecture. It might possibly, indeed,degenerate into something wursc. Such un-

dertakings as these, for instance, do not pro-mise much for harmony: " Whatever theapproaching Council may decree, I shall beprepared to adduce a contrary decree fromthe cannons of previous Councils, or fromtbe Bulls or Encyclicals of Popes, or fromboth." Nothing more likely, but wouldthat be to tbe satisfaction or edification ofthe Pope or Council? What Dr. Cummingengages to show can be shown peyond ques-tion by advocates of far less experience thanhimself, but whether Cardinal Patrizzi wonldwelcome the exposition is another matter.

"In the history of bis Church I have foundthat Council decrees against Pope and Poperetaliates against Cocncil, and Pope contra-dicts Pope and Council anathematizes Coun-cil, and that in tbe Romish Church there is ahistoric concordia discort wblch renders It Inall respects the most disunited Church inChristendom." Is that the text on whichDr. Cumming proposes to preach before theCouncil ol Rome?

Nevertheless, our correspondent stands on6trong ground. He was invited to attendthe Council, and, unless the ivltatlon was amockery, be must have been invited on termsextending at least to freedom of conference.Dr. Cumraing is a fair, indeed an eligiblerepresentative of a numerous body of Chris-tians, and be states with great fairness tbecase between his friends and the RomanCouncil. " We scperated from Rome in theslxtenth century. Rome may fairly Invite usonce more to return, or give our reasons forstanding aloof." Nothing could be moreplausible, but still we fancy the Cardinal Se-

cretary will not admire tbe Dropositlon, anymore, we (ear than be will recognize the"accustomed ecclastiacal Latin" in tbe lan-

guage in which it Is conveyed. The univer-sality of tbe Invitation was only a form, andthough the company of the polemical Protes-tants might have been actually requested, Itis hardly to be supposed that it is desired.Our correspondent may go to Rome withoutfear of being burnt by sentence of tbe Coun-cil, or even attacked in the streets like Pro-testants in Spain, but tbe freedom of speechwhich he respectfully solicits for an expo-sure of Romish idolatory Is not, we shouldthink, likely to be accorded to him. Per-haps most persons would be of opinion thatthe collision would be of little good, butas the Pope undoubtedly sent the invita-tion, and the capacity in which Dr. Gum-ming proposes to accept It Is inevitable, ourreaders may possily look with some interestfor tbe conclusion of so remarkable a corres-pondence.

Binox Betst asd the Cousen.Tbe following Is Baron Beast's answer te

the Circular of Prince Hobenlohe regardingthe approaching Ecumenical Council:

A government which, like tbe n,

bos adopted tbe freedom of allreligious denominations within the liberallyconstituted civil society as its leading princip-

le-, would, in our view, not adhere to the

consequences of that principle if It were tooppose a system of preventive and restrictivemeasures to an affair which, such 06 the con-vocation of a general council, Is an act thathas its foundation in tbe constitution of theChurch. It having beenlaid dowu as a general rule that the fullestUDcrty must oe given io ine recognized reIlglous communities, in tbeir internal nctlvity. as long as it does not come in collisionwith the stand-poin- t of the State, the Impe-rial and royal Government has not been ableto sec sufficient motives, cither of right oropportunity, as the matter stands, toconcur in tbe proposal of tbe royal BavarianGovernment, at present, however worthy ofconsideration mat proposal ue in itseir. .R-especting the proceedings of the council, onlysuppositions, more or less probable, can bemade at present. Not even of the programme ot tne subjects ol deliberation of thecouncil has any official Information beengiven, except the general intimation contallied In bull of convocation.Moreover, nobodv will dlsDUte tbe ircticralcouncil of tbe Cburcb tbe province of purelydogmatical questions, lion ever, as regardstbe ecclesiastical off.iirs of the State, as wellas those matters wuicu, in common witu re-ligion, affect at the same time also tbe civilrigbts, it is difficult to lorm. a ludgmeut as to whether tbere Is danger to beapprehended that tbe diucrences which baveoecome manliest in tuis respect win uewidened uy ine ueiioeraiions ana resolutionsof tbe council, and raised to such a pitch asto Increase the danger of tbe security of theotates. tve can neither deny nor confirmthe existence ol such a danger.

But, iu general, it may be presumed thatthe Catholic bishops, the great majority ofwuom mu6i reside ana penorm tiieir sacreafunctions In countries which are governed bycompletely secularized laws, will bring withmem to iionic an exact Knowledge oi tnepractical necessities of our age. And If tbeexpectation be justified that advocates infavor of tbe preservation of peace betweenStateand Church, will not be wantlngamongtne prelates oi ine council, it win not, per-haps, be in the interests of the governmentsto let those voices appear being patronizedby the State, which might preudicu theirauthority., furthermore, it can not, as yet,be discerned what tho attitude ol the PapalSee (n hlch, In tbe present state of the woUd,will neither be able nor willing to renew tbeprecedents of past centuries regarding theparticipation of the secular princes in thecouncil,) will be towards the governmentsrelative to these subjects of discussion, re-

specting which the resolutions of tbe coun-cil can not be carried into effect without tberecognition of tbe State. In our opinion, thegovernments are, however, in sucb a posi-tion that they can await tbe steps ol theChurch government that they may becomenecessary in this respect. Should the approaching council really show signs or adoptmeans to trespass on tbe sphere of right ofthe executive power of the State, or shouldcertain Indications of such a tendency mani-fest themselves In an authentic manner, theImperial and Royal Government is of opinionthat in that case the question could surelynot be avoided to consider how far, besides

several States, combined deliberations of theCabinets might become advisable or neces-sary for the common protection of the sove-reign rights of the States. On the otherbaud, we can not agree to a diplomatic con-ference on the mere presumption of possibleencroachments upon these rights, and raise,thereby, the appearance, perhaps, not tospeak of the increased difficulty of comingto a distinct understanding on so uncertaina basis of ou Intended control and restric-tion of the liberty of the Catholic Cburcb,aud Increase the anxiety of minds withoutnecessity.

PnoTOORAFH Sitters. The publie does notappreciate the fact that very careful dressingis required to obtain a satisfactory audience oCtbe sun. Sol is even more inexorable thanany court llankey in such matters. Tho pub-li-e

seems to think that the sun takes cogniz-ance of any color that may be presented tohim, and finds out its mistake when too late.Yellow or orange may suit the brunette, andmauve, or the lighter shades of blue and gray,may harmonize irith the blonde; but in thecamera it is far otherwise. The yellow ray ofthe spectrum does not affect the silver plate,irhile mauves, purples and blues do most ac-

tively ; thus when the printing process reversesthe shades on the photographic plate, the yel-

low becomes black, and the delicate light col-o- rs

above mentioned print nearly pure white.Thus sitters sometimes become so altered intheir photographic portrait that they scarcelyrecognize themselves. Gloriana with goldenhair comes forth with raveo tresses, and theyellow rose in Rebecca's coiffure is as black astbe locks they adorn. A certain class of people,again, like the sun to register their finery.Ladies who but seldom go to court, w isb tomake the most of the occasion, quite regardlessof the fact that stiffbrocades, especially duringthe crinoline fashion, give anything but anelegant contour to the figure. Tbere has beenof late, however, a very great improvement inthis respect, and all the better-clas- s photo-graphers have learned to impress npon theirsitters the value of simplicity, both as regardsposo and dress. In certain quarters of tbetown, however, tbe rage for pretence is asgreat as ever, both on the part of the sitter andthe photographer. It will be observed thatthe lower the neighborhood the more variedthe amount of properties and scenia decora-- ,

tions to bo found in the studio. Possibly thecarpenter would prefer being working at bisbench, but tbe photographer, who artfully pre-

fers pleasing Jones' wife, places him upon aterrace with a landscape as abackground. Servantmaids, again, are seat-ed in splendid boudoirs, and rcspectablo trades-men are placed in extensive libraries, whereasthe only books they feel at home with, are their

and ledgers. All this is tbo meresnobbery of the art, which we rarely see prac-tised in better-clas- s studios. A flat gray back-ground, which throws up tbe figure withoutcatting up its lines, is now almost universallyemployed. Nevertheless tbe ignorance tbat isoccasionally displayed by people of the betterclass with resptet to the manner or taking tbephotograph would scarcely be believed. Onone occasion two ladies entered the sitting-roo- m

of a studio, and placing themselves be-

fore a mirror, after some time wished to knowif the portraits were not finished, evidentlythinking the looking-glas- s was the operatingagent. In another ease we heard that a younglady intimated her desire that her hair shouldbe made a little longer ; and it has been desiredthat even jowelry should be omitted in the por-

trait, the sitter making no attempt fo removeit herself. Onefold gentleman, in the country,even sent up the color of bis hair to tbe color-ing artist of the Stereoscopic Company, andcalled four days afterward the inquire if tbeportrait was done I Xoung lady sitters duringthe present fashion of dressing the hair arenot photographed to advantage, tbe ehignonaffording a very unsubstantial foundation fortbe head-res- t.

jLorils and Commons.

'When we look at the composition of the twonouses, at the aristocratic element of tbe Com-

mons and at the plebeian proportion of tbeLords, we cannot fail to see tbe mistake madeby political teachers who would congratulatethe country on the ability of iU Commons,while they denounce the incapacity of theLords. The natural position of a yonag Lord

an unfledged Peer is the House of Com-

mons. If we look into the records of all ourgreat noble families, we find that it is so. Theyoung cadets of our great houses are the mostpopular candidates at oar hustings; nor havethey become less popular than heretofore un-

der the operation or the household suffrage.This basbecomeso muehthe ruleof life amongnoble families in England that a Peer, in thedispossl of his son, looks almost as a matter ofcourse to a career for him as a Commoner iathe Lower-Hous- And noblemen succeed

there, nroportionably beyond other men. because they begin tbeir work young, and arehampered by no demands on their time mads)by other professions. Who can remember aCabinet in which has not sat the son of tomePeer as a commoner, a Hartington, a Stanley,a Seymour or a Lincoln? In tbe course of na-ture these men beeomo Peers and take withthem into the Upper House the education theybave acquired in the Lower. To suppose tbatbecause they become Lords Lords in tbe leg-islative sense, they therefore become fools, is,we think, to indulge a revolutionary passionat tbe expense of common sense. To quarrelwith tbem because their energy Is less promi-nent than it was heretofore is to cast a censure,upon the appetite for govern-ment of tbe House of Commons. And if theLower House be composed to a large decree ofyoung noblemen, so is the Upper House

from day to day by old commoners.Olthe Peers who spoke in the late debate, verynearly one-ha- lf bad won their peerages forthemselves : and of the hereditary Peers whospoke, very nearly one-ha- lf had earned forthemselves a parliamentary reputation In theHouse of Commons. Wa insist npon this now.not because we like the work tbat the Lordshare just done which, however, we regard aswork very natural for them to do, but becausewe like tbe energy with which they did it.And we fneciatlr dislike that fonlinir of dnrown nest whieh is toa sad degree effected whenour own leading men allow themselves' to useexpressions of contempt toward a branch ofour Legislature which is not only absolutelyessential to ourexistingconstitution, but whichdoes, in fact, conduct itself with exemplarydiligence and most patriotio seal in dischargeof its duties. We all know the class of argu-ments which Is used against hereditary legis-lators, and how flagrant are the instances ofmen who, born to this high position, disgracetheir rank by low vice and by egregious folly.Talcs are told of this vice and folly in our owngreat colonies. In the United States, and allorer Europe, which are easily understood andeasily believed, and the argument against here-ditary legislation seems to be complete. Butvice and folly are more easily recognized thanwisdom and patriotism, and, alas I have greater charms for tbe tongues of men and women.A Duke who has wasted a princely patrimonyin five years gives more subject for excitingconversation than an Earl who has been thricePrime Minister. Tbat this Duke or that Marquis should have dissipated his patrimony willbecome matter of notoriety throughout all thenations, whereas the life's work of a man whohad all means of pleasure at hiseommand, buthas been stirred to work by a high ambition,is for the moment disregarded. For everyPeer disgraced among us, we have ten Peerswho are, as it were, tbe very salt of the earthto us. And such is the constitution of ourHouse of Lords that it oust be so. Our Upper Chamber Is so constantly refreshed withnew waters that it cannot become a stagnantpool. Our Commoner is so near to being aPeer, and our Peer was so lately a Commoner,that it is fatuous to speak of difference betweenthe capacity and the patriotism of the one andthe other. We will regard our country as aland which is destined to make progress. Inmatters of legislation, Publie Opinion aits onthe box. The House of Commons is the teamof horses, and the House of Lords is the dragat the wheel. So excellently does the contri-vance perform its part that we go down all thehills with a safety unknown to other nations.Saint PanU.

"Certain it is that the whole of Christenlom might be ransacked Iu Tain to find aparallel of a judge who coolly takes the se-verest charges without an attempt at a jus-tification, or bringing to au account thosewho make them if they be not true. Thecharges must either be true or the judge hasoeen most grossly aDueea ana misrepresent-ed. In the latter alternative bis friend caninform him as to the proper course to pursue." r. v. a., ocpt. aatu.

There was a case of ono Hazlin, a sea

man, vs. one Macdonald, a mate of a ship,

pending in the Supreme Court, which

some persons probably interested iu i

seem to think of vast importance, nnd arc

very profuse in reporting for "o.e of theleading journals," but which has not appeared to us of any more importance thanany other case of assault and battery. Wereported it, at the time, np to the final

judgment, as we likewise did the FolicoCourt cose, which depended on the samefacts, and then, as is usual as far as this paper is concerned, let Mr. Uozlin and Mr.Macdonald sink back into their normal po-

sition, presuming that the public curiositywas fully satisfied in the matter of theirdisagreement

We have not omitted to admire suf-

ficiently, the nssaranco with which ourneighbor's "staff," or himself, advise thepublic as to what the law and practice is,showing thereby, most conclusively, thatin their opinion a legal education is not atall necessary for the most clear understand-ing, as well as clear elucidation of legalrules and practice. Ono may reasonablyregret that the community had not been sofortunate as to hare secured their services,or the services of one of them, for thejudgment scat. Bat it is evident, thatwith all their legal lore and fitness forjudging judges, they are not quite up tothe mark, for though we may not bo so wellup in the law as these Daniels, yet we'maymodestly lay claim to having a little acquaintance with the newspapers of the day,and may diffidently claim that such knowledge extends over as long a space of time,ns that of the editor-in-chie- f, or any of his"staff," or contributors, and have yet tohear ol any judge who condescended to defend the validity and propriety of his rutings, made in open Court against newspaper articles nor would he be morelikely to do so, should he be, in pointor fact, certain that the materials fromwhich those articles are manufactured,were furnished by practitioners beforohim, towards whom, the judge's dutyto their clients requires that he shouldendeavor tolceep his own mind in as wellbalanced a state as possible, in the interestof justice. "We have read over these arti-

cles, and if any thoughts have been sug-

gested by them, other than their utter.meanness, it has been a wonder as to"what it was all about t"

The following "severe" charge is thoughtworthy to be published in large type.A paper written in pencil, (just thinkof it!), horribly interlined, (horrible 1),

not headed, cor dated, and not signed atall, was filed with the Clerk of the Su-

preme Court. One stands aghast at thischarge, but yet on recovering from theterrible effect, naturally asks himself whatthe Clerk " sits there for," except to copy

the said paper in a proper manner, and tobring it to his Chief to sign. And then theyproceed to report farther, as follows : TheCourt " had a hesitation in saying that ithad considered the Respondent, againstwhom the decree was issued, was therebyliable for costs, jsct that there might bkno discussion arise out of the fact thatcosts were not mentioned in the decree,

they are now ordered to be remitted."The reading of the sentence shows to any-pn- e

the misrepresentation, it being evident

that the Jndge said he had so hesitation,bet, etc., and that the " be'' has

no sense in the sentence. Who it is thathas occasion to find fault about the remission of costs which lies entirely in

the discretion of the Court Is not ap-

parent. It will be obten iliat he remitsthem does not charge tiitm to anybody.

Anyone who reads over the several articleswhich have been furnished by the " Inde-

pendent Press," will see that some individuals are making a jest or it, or nsing itfor a stalking-hors- whilst the Editor ha3

not that knowledge of the professionof which he assumes to speak, cr acumen

to see that he is making himself ridiculous.

For instance, some one it is not difficult

to guess who having seen the willingness

to publish the emanations of some one

else's spleen on the 4th, furnishes, on the11th, the horrible " blckder" of givin;

the inadequate damages of $250. Xowwho is the judge of what is adequate or

inadequate T The Plaintiff had chosen topursue the Respondent in the PoliceCourt, and had procured a judgment of 20

drys' imprisonment against him, at hardlabor. Under these circumstances, it is

not usual to give what are called vindictive

damages. He had already been punishedat the instance of - the injured man.

Nor is it usual for a reasonable Judge to

give damages such ns a Respondent wo'ildprobably be unable to pay, for should hedo so, the judgment would defeat itself.Second, that he furnished to his own Clerk

a draft of the decree which he wa3 to give

in pencil and interlined. Next, that it(the judgment,) should have been given in

open Court, so that Libelant's Proctorcould have taken the necessary steps toenforce the judgment, by an order for

arrest. Well, the Judge appointed an

hour to give his decision ; caused the Li-

belant's Proctor to be notified to attend :

but he did not do so and the Judgewent on to make known his decision toRespondent. Probably, Mr. Editor, youare of opinion that it would be the " reg-

ular" thinjr for the Judce to seek out bothCounsel, and ascertain when it would be

convenient for both gentlemen to attendon him.

Indeed, one is confirmed in the belief

that this is the learned Editor's view ofwhat the practice ought to be, for he in-

forms us, on the 18th, in a " Record "which he makes np, that Respondent gavenotice of a Motion on the lGlh, which was

set for hearing on the lTtb, but the Judgewent to Koolau. Set by whom? Notby the Judge, evidently, for he wentto Koolan. Xow, in point ot fact,beforo the illumination which i3 now

being shed on the practice of Courts

of Judicature, by the "Independent," ithas been supposed that the Judge was theperson who set down any motion for ahearing. Jndge Widemann had neverheard of any intention to make such mo-

tion until he was in his saddle to go for aride, and having made no appointment atall for the 17th, had the presumption ! ! to

take a ride to Koolau. When asked for

the first time, to set a day for hearing, on

the 21st, he expressed a willingness tohear it on the 22nd, but at the requestof the mover, fixed it on the 23rd.

Some people think our remarks on latejudicial irregularities unnecessary and severe."

Well, they must have queer ideas ofwhat constitutes severity. The remarksmay havo the effect to make some

persons think there is some-

thing wrong, but to one having anyexperience in the matters to which theyrefer, they only appear ridiculous. Takothe sentence which heads tho articleabove quoted : " The Hazlin vs. McDonald caso still drags its slow

length along." Anyone would thinkthat when a judgment was given and acapias was issued to satisfy the judgment,the case was about done. If any one shalltako the trouble to read down the "record,"as published in the same issue, it would bemost difficult to see "what is the matter,"as far as Judge Widemann is concerned.The comments are sufficiently absurd. Weare informed, by this paper, that on Sept.8th, Judge AV. discharged respondentBut in the issue of Sept. 11th, the sameauthority says that Justice Hartwell dis-

charged him; and such is the truth.Again, see the following brilliant comment: T!r

Sept. 8th. Libellant gave notice of a motion for the 9th that the Court amend its judgment, so as to include toe costs, and also foran order that the respondent be held in cus-tody until the judgment for damages andcosts are paid."

Sept. 9th. Respondent appeared, readyto argue the motion to amend, and libellantfiled grounds of motion, which were differentfrom the notice to respondent of Sept. Sth,viz : 'To correct the decree by adding theretoa judgment for costs in favor of libellant.'Also moves the Court 'to award an executionagainst tbe libellant in the nature of a capiatand of a fi. fa. to enforce tbe decree for thepayment of damages and costs.'"

Mark the difference between amendits judgment to include costs, and correctthe decree by adding costs. Mark like-

wise the difference between an order for

respondent to bo held in custody, and tbeawarding of a capias execution. Canquibbling go any lower be any meaneror do they not know what a capias is t

Again : In this same report, it is said

that on Sept. 14th, respondent exceptedto the monition, on tbe ground that "Itwas not in accordance with the the orderof the Court on Sept. 10th," bat the com.ment on Sept. 15th, says : "Writ ca so, orattachment issued, setting forth tbe order ofSept-- 10th, (" there wa3 no order;") So itwill be seen that tbe same report saysthere was'sm order," in their report of theproceedings of Sept. 14th, and reportingSept. 15th, says, there " was no such or-

der." Their next report of the proceed-

ings of Sept. 23d, is as follows :

" I hare not the slightest donbt as to thepower of this Court to rescind its own decrees.I never .considered that the prisoner should be

detained longer than when sufficient causeshould be shown for his discharge. TheRespondent has failed to show sufficient causeto authorise his release. In regcrd to the ob-

jections made other than technical the Courthas been particular to guard the rights of theRespondent. The Friday, Saturday, Sundayand Monday, (here tho Court counted on itsfingers) were allowed, including the day ofservice made. But objection having beenmade to this, I gave until the IStb, and benot paying, I should not be justified in releas-ing the prisoner. I think ample justice hasbeen done him."

"It will be observed that the learned judgedoes not deign to say a word about his witbeing at variance with his order on the 9th,on the 10th, and on the 15th."

Now, let it be remembered that this re-

port is made by one who has seen fit toarray himself in opposition to the judge,and to endeavor to detract from him and

what does it amount to? That the judgeordered, on September;10th,that Mr. Mac-

donald pay his judgment within four days,

or that he would be arrested this occur-

ring at 12 o'clock on the 10th of Septem-

ber. In causing his order to be writtenout, for the purpose of greater certainty,he caused the words : "including this (lay,the date of this monition," to be inserted.No lawyer ever donbtcd the propriety ofthis. He might have ordered him to bearrested at once; but he thought properto give him four days, and to limit the fourday3 by counting that day, Friday, as one.In other words, in the order communicatedto Mr. Macdonald, he saw fit to say tohim on Friday, "If you have not paidthis judgment by 12 o'clock on Monday,you will be arrested. Let it be borne inmind that it was a perfectly sound thingto order his arrest at once, yet tho Judgegave him to Monday. But objection beingmade to this on tho ground that the verbalorder was understood to reach till Tuesday, he actually did not give his orderuntil Wednesday, 15th, thus making fiveclear days. On the 23d, Respondent comesin and says : "On Friday I understood youto say to me that I was to pay on Tuesday,the 14th. Your written order says Monday,the 13tb, yet you have sent me to jail onthe 15th, for not obeying an order whichyou say was meant for the 13th, and Iunderstood to be meant for tho 14th,Mind, all this was said on tbe 23d, as areason to be discharged on that day. Isnot the clear answer to it : Well, haveyou paid yet? (on the 23d.) and if hehas not, why sbnll tho Court release himthat he mayset their judgment at defiance?But, as is usual, our friend always has onepoint which is especially rich.

But when it is consideredthat it is the editor himself, who,in his editorial capacity, ha3 made all thetalk, and is solely responsible for it! Itmnst be acknowledged that it is prettygood.for him to say that ho ought to bebrought to on account IF they be not true.nnd that IF they be not true, the judgehas been most grossly abused and insulted,

Below wc publish a correspondence of theWeeXlij Bulletin, on the subject of a line ofsteamers between San Francisco and Anstralia via Honolulu. There can be no doubtbut that in time, such an enterprise will beundertaken, and there is no room to doubtbut that It will prove to be a profitableone. Tbe Australian Colonics and NewZealand are scarelv Icy prosperous than theStates on the western slope of the RockyMountains. Already a considerable commerce has sprung up between California andAustralia, and it only requires a more certainand speedy mode of communication betweenthe two countries to make it more activeand prosperous. The establishment of 6teamcommunication would accomplish that re-

sult, wilb the consequence that the surplusproductions of both countries could be n-

terchanged to the mutual benefit of ailparties concerned. To tbe Islands of tbePacific, lying in the track of tbis commerce,great benefits would accrue. More particularly would this be the case here, where so muchhas been done in the development of the countrythe production of certain staples whichhare such an effect upon the markets of tbisocean. We may say as much as we please ofthe advantages of the market which wc nowenjoy; we Bhould not be unmindful ofthe fact that a line of steamers such asproposed by the correspondent of the Bulletin, would open up to us tbe vast Colonicsof Australia, thereby giving us the advantageof two certain and increasing markets forour produce. To Bay nothing of the passenger traffic, which would undoubtedly provea great local benefit, the establishment of aline of steamers such as suggested, wouldprove of lasting benefit to the whole country,and is fully as desirable as it would be tohave the China steamers take this port Intotheir route to and from China.

A new Ockax Steam Line. During thelast quarter of a century, progress and civil-ization have made such rapid strides that itIs hard to foretell what may follow. Thelast srjlke is hardlvdriven in tbe Atlantic andPacific Railroad, beforo another enterprise ofme same Kino, is nnaer way. from tue astand West, the tide of population is rollingtowards our shores. The men of Europeand Asia meet on our soil to compete In thegrand march of civilization. And long ereMacaulcy's New Zealand artist takes bisstand on the broken arches of London Bridge,to sketch the ruins of tbe scene around, ahundred millions of Americans will inhabitthis vast continent, and tbe stars and stripeswill wave from north to south. Tet it be-hooves our merchants to open up all tf)echannels of commerce with foreign countries-La- st

year, a large quantity of our producefound its way to tbe Australian market, andnearly 2,000 Australians lound their way hereto settle in our more favored land. Austra-lia has a population of nearly 2,000.000. andduring tbe year 18C3.no less than 3,000,000was paid by first-clas- s passengers betweentbe Colonies and Europe, while the CentralPolynesian passenger traffic, and Sydney andMelbourne, amounted to at least $S0,00O,and the passage money paid in the Colonies

for tbis port amounted daring the same yearto luliy siuu.uuy, and Detween Honolulu anaSan Francisco, fC.,OOa ttb a passengertrade- - already established or KU,uw, anathe 3.009.000 between Australia and Europeto be competed for, and a subsidy of at leastf4,uw,uuu, annually, Irora me .usirsuan,Frcneh, and Hawaiian Governments, there isevery reason to believe that a urst-clas- s steam-shi-

line between San Francisco and Queensland, would pay well indeed. It costs theGovernment of New Caledonia at least$100,000 per annum to carry the mails fromParis via Syduey, and it takes M days to per-form the service. Tbe Colony draws suppliesfrom Jfcw Zealand, and pays at least 150 percent, on can rrancisco prices lor Hour, ineQueensland Government feel tbe want of adirect mall service, as the present mall lineterminates at Sydney, and tbe Governmenthavo to depend on coasting vessels to per-form tbe service, nnd letters seldom reachBrisbane under S3 days from Southampton,while the service, via this port, could tie per-formed In 43 days. The distance, via Honolulu and --New Caledonia, Is o.iuu miles.

The Imports of the Polynesian Islandsamount to over $6,000,000. annually, and theexports fully as much. The greater part oftue produce is sold in Auiraua, ana suppliesare bought cuicnr in Sydney, inc HawaiianIslanders, alone, are our customers.

International Yacht Itacc.A Channel race for yachts of ail nations,

from Cherbourg round the Nab Light andback, for a cup of the value or L'.DOUt., givenby the Emperor of the French through theSoc'ete des Rcgettas de Cherbourg, with aprize for the second vessel value l,000f., and agold medal, was sailed on Jlonuay tbe loininst. There was also an extra prize of 500f.and a silver medal for the first French yacht.The result of this race will bo interesting toEngli.'h yachtsmen, as it was the first opportuni-ty there had been of ascertaining tho comparative speed of the champion American YachtDauntless, about wbicb me public Dave beamso much lately. This vessel was in tho Solentduring the whole of the races there during thepast fortnight, but she has not competed inany of them , nor indeed had she been seen un-

der way except upon ono occasion. It wasnot known that she was going to Cherbourg totake part in tbis race, acdit was therefore for-

tunate that two English yachts of noted char-acter the Guinevere and Egeria were thereto meet her, otherwise she would probablyhavo had an inglorious victory. The Guinevere, being of all the fast English yachts, thenearest to her in point of tonnage, was thebest qualified to compete with her on equalterms ; the Egeria is not quite half her size.Tbe Soclette des Regattes de Cherbourg adop-ted the rules of the Royal Thames Yacht Club,including those as to tonnage and time allow-

ance as the conditions of the race.Tbe following vessels were entered :

The Committee jt the Cherbourg YachtClub measured each yacht by French measure-ment, according to tbe Thames rule, and theactual time allowances were as follows:

31. S. SI.D&nntless - - --

Guloevere0 0 Egerla - ... 41

- - --

- - - - SI 45 Diane - - - - 69

The yachts were started under way at 2o'clock in the afternoon, the time of each beingtaken as they passed the east end of the greatbreakwater for which Cherbourg is celebrated.There was bright sunshine, with a nice sailingbreeze from the northward, which enabledthem to lay their course direct for the Nab.Whole sails and balloon canvas was tbe orderof the day, and the little fleet skimmed over thealmost unruffled surface of the scant a speed offrom six to seven knots to an hour. An ex-

cursion steamer accompanied tbe race.Although we have been accustomed to re-

gard the balloon sails of our racing yachts asof enormous proportions, they appeard tobe exceeded by those of the Dauntteet, buther topmast and spars seemed too light to carrysuch gigantic sails in anything approaching toa good breeze, and so it proved, for about anhour after the start she carried away her

bringing down ber fore gaff topsail,and a bugo jib topsail set from tbe end of herjibboom to her torctopmast head. Tbis mis-

fortune, of course, diminished her chances ofwinning the race, but tbe damage was soon inpart repaired by setting an enormous bal-loon jib, and changing her maintonmatt stay-sail for a larger one. Subsequently she riggeda jury foretopmast, and sct upon it a smallgafi topsail. This was the only spar carriedaway during the race.

About 6 o'clock the breeze somewhat refreshened, and the. yachts, still holding thesame course, were making eignt knots an hour.They were in two linos, the Guinevere, Ltjerie,and Shark forming the leeward line, andtbe Dauntte, Diane, and Jfytlere the weatherline. Ine OuiN'rere led by about half a mile,with the Eneria second, about the same distance in advance of the Dauntleei. Of theFrench vessels the Diane appeared to bo leav-ing the Jyifrre rapidly, and to be at that timeabout two miles ahead or her.

The Isle of Wight was sighted abouto'clock on the port bow, and tbe Guinevereand Eaeria finding themselves carried by theflood tide somewhat to leeward of their nronercourse, luffed a point or to. At Sundown theGuinevere bad increased her lead to about oneand a half miles, the Dauntlen was to wind- -WArd about a mile on tbe weather quarter oftbe Aaeria, ana a utile astern of ber, with theShark and Diane about three miles astern ofthe two vessels, and the Jv-tere a long way behind tbe Diane.

As tbe vessels nearcd tbe Isle of W icht. theDauntlett and ,gerxa ced, and an interest-ing beam and beam race commenced betweenthem. Tbe Danntlen tried to pass to windward of the iaerta, bat the latter had a tooexperienced a racing crew on board, to beeasily caught in that way, and she immediately laned, to stop tbe American s manccuvre.and after a short lime not only drew ahead ofber, but also crossed ber bows and came outupon ber weather, continuing afterwards todrop her astern. This luffing- match betweenthe Dauntleie and tbe Eqeria cave, the Guinevere an advantage; she was also able to maketbe NAb licbt vesssel without a tack, androunded, giving hername tothe French steamer in waiting to take the times at a little past10 o'clock, ucfore tbe Lnerxa and Daunttetecould reacn tbe Aab tbe wind beaded tbcm,at tbe same time becoming lighter, and tbeywere bote obliged to make two tacks beioretucy could round, wmcn delayed tnem considerably. The times of rounding were asfollows :

Oainevere - - -- 10 Shark 11Eecrta 11 Diane 11Dauntless - - - 11 Uyitere 12

After rounding tbe Nab, sheets were easedwell off and the yachts commenced their return journey witb a pleasant breeze on tbestarboard quarter, and under a fine, warm,moonlight night, with scarcely any sea on.About 2 o'clock the wind came more aft, andsquare sails and square top-sai-ls were set.The Guinevere, which sailed better than shehas before done this year, increased her lead.but tbe Egeria and Dauntltie did not materially alter tbeir relative positions in tbe race.The breeze held, and the weather continuedfine during the night, the several yachts kepta straight course for Cherbourg, and nothingwortby of special notice occurred during tberemainder of the race, which was concluded bytheir roundine the fiarboat inside the westend of the breakwater at the following times :

Guinevere - - - - 7 1 Diane 10 42Egeria-- -- S 43 Mjittre 10 62Dauntless - - - - 9 53

The Guinevere taking the Emperor's Cup,tbe Egeria the second prize and gold medal,and the Diane the prise exclusively for Frenchyachts.

Tbe Guinevere and Egeria both came inahead of tbe Dauntlett, beating ber withoutany time or tonnage allowance, although asit was a reach to the Nab; and run back, theweather and wind might bare been supposedto be in her favor. In the only close tusslewe observed, which was between the Daunt-le- w

and Egeria when approaehiog the Isle ofWight, the latter proved herself, on a wind.superior both in speed and weatherly quali-ties, confirming the impression previously en-

tertained by those who had seen the Dauntlettin the dock at Cowes, that she may obtain a

few wrinkles from onr yacht builders insteadof imparting them, as the famous -- lm erica didin Ittt.'.

Tbe notices of the intended race do not appear to have been suuieiently published, andit was consequently little known, otherwise itis probable that there would have been a larger, thongh it could hardly have been a moresuitable entry for tbe American yacht Haunt-let. London Matt, Aug. 20. .

Jin, Editor: There is an error In thenotice of the death of Mr. and Mrs. Wilcox,published in the lucific, as quoted by tbe 1(1-

trrttser, In the time of their residence In thoIslands. They arrived at Honolulu April 9,1837, being thirty-tw- o years ago, last April.

Respected, trusted and beloved,they dweltand labored In the land, not in vain, for ageneration. Mrs. 'Wilcox, on her passagefrom her homo to Honolulu, In Jane last,bad a slight attack ot paralysis, but whenshe left, was doing well. This, and tbe comparatlve feebleness of Mr. Wilcox, Inducedthem to undertake the iourney to visit theireldest son, settled at Orovllle, California, andtbence to journey to their early home, whichthey reached, only to die. Their feeblenessand weariness rendered them peculiarly susceptible to the attscks of disease, and whenprostrated by It, their systems had not vitality enough to rally again, but quickly yieldedto its power.

Mr-- Wilcox, at tho time of his death, wasTreasurer and Superintendent of the Government Schools Id the division of the Islandwhere he dwelt. Ho was also a Missionaryof tbe Am. Board. Com,

As amusing story is told in the Kuokoaof a certain native living in Koolau, whichis too good to be lost. It seems that theperson Iu question has been sick and appre-

hending that his end was near at hand, sentInto town for a coffin, so that bis friendsmight be prepared to give him proper burial.In due time the coffin arrived, upon seeingwhich, grave doubts arose In tbe sick man'smind as to whether it would fit. No meansto decide the question appearing so conclusiveto htm as a " personal test," he tried himselfand couldn't get in, the thing was too nar-row 1 He soundly berated his messenger forhis stnpidity in not getting a coffin suitablefor tbe purpose, and lost un time in savingthe capital Invested, so far as possible.Knowing of another man sick like himself,who also expected to die, lie entered Intonegotiations with him at once, and succeeded in disposing of the useless (to him)article, at a loss of only four dollars. Ourreaders will appreciate tbe above, when westate that this provident gentleman is tbehonorable member from Koolau, who inyears past has caused no little mirth onaccount of his eccentricities. We sincerelyhope that the venerable and eccentric gentleman's fears will not be realized, but that hemay. Instead, long live and make us all laugh'many more times.

The new School-hous- corner of Fort andSchool Streets, is having its finishing touchesput on, and will be ready for occupationnext week. It is a handsome, cruciform,stone building, with slated roof. The mainbuilding is 53 feet long by S3 feet wide, overall. Tbe interior Is divided by a partitioninto two rooms, one of SO by 40 feet, andthu other, 12 by 30 feet. The larger room Is

intended to serve as the principal class-roo-

and the smaller one as a vestibule, or hat andcloak room. Thu two wings are each of 31feet 0 inches by 28 feet, over all, forming tworooms of 25 by SO feet, both communicatingwith the vestibule and class-roo- but baring also Independent entrances from the verandahs. The porcb over the dodrway of themain building Is 8 feet by 10 feci, and infront of each wing there is a veranda SO feetlong by 8 feet wide. The floor surface ofthe three class-room- s is 2,700 square feet, affording ample room for the accommodationof 200 to 300 pupils.

An Assault and Battery case came up Inthe Police Court yesteaday the first inBome time, in that usually quiet forum.The party complainant, produced severalwitnesses, who, unfortunately for him,swore each, to quite different stories, andthen be exhibited two scalp wounds. Theway In which he got the latter appearedto be a mystery. It was evident, however, to His Honor, that there bad been abreach of the peace, and whle botli partieswere adjudged to have done wrong, the defendant was thought to have gone a littlefurther than necessity, or the provocationrequired, and was fined $5. It Is said therewill be a further snit for damages.

The Pensicoli. The report that thls shipwas to sail from Victoria for tbis port in September, is not altogether reliable, as is shownby tho following private advices received bythe Titan, dated Sept. 10th:

" The U. S. Ship Vemaeola, will not visityour port for some time. She has severalmonths repairs to make at Mare Island, whereshe now is." ,

Plaxciikttb. We took Planchettehome witii us, and have tested its powers,with the most astonishing- results. Unlire- - first trial it told us a great manvevents in our past life that we never Knewourselves even ! With regard to the fu-

ture, it said wc should live to have parentsand be at ninety, and dyingat a sweet old age, take as much propertyaway with us as did tbe famous million-aire so often quoted John Jacob A&tor.wo have dispensed with clocks entirelyat our honse, Planchette telling tho timeot flay whenever applied to. hue warnsu3 of storms, domestic and otherwise; re-

Our yonngest boy getsflanchette to assist him in ciphenntr ontall his hard sum3, and tbe cook boiU by her.

Upon one occasion we told a neighborif he wanted to hold converse with ihespirits, to come over to our house thatnight, and be was at liberty to bring someof his friends also. We would give them

specimen of the wonderful powers ofPlanchette. ".Now," said we to ourneighbor, " do you recall to yonr mind anrdeparted spirits you would like to hearfrom?" " Ah, yes," Baid be visibly affect-ed. "I do." "Von have some choice ofspirits, without doubt" said we; "nameit. and it shall be produced." " Can Ihave ray my choice of of spirits?"sobbed the unhappy man, with his facebuned in his handkerchief. can."

Then," said he, "111 Bame Old Bourbon I" We had to stand it. We kept afew bottles (very old! hid awav. incaseof sickness, which we were obliged to pro-duce, and they left nothing but tbe eroDtvglassware when they went away.

On Dear I The following appeared amongtbe items (for which the editor was evidentlyhard up) of Saturday's Advertiter.

"WnisnEnruL. The Gaiette of this weektells its 2221 readers that the next full moonoccurs on tbe 50lh day of October. This isabout as near as it usffually comes to tbe truth.Tho trouble of course lie" at least, in this in-

stance, with its proof reader."Tbe above is very amusing and very sar-

castic, the more so, from the fact that thephases of the moon for October were not given

in tbe Gazette of last week but those forSeptember were; some of the figures in which,got transposed in putting into the form.

"The trouble of course lier, in this instance,"not "with the proof reader" but with the wri-

ter of the mite.

Marshal Adolpiie Neil, whose deathis announced in oar cable dispatches,was ooe of the ablest military men ofFrance. Entering tho military school atan early age, he evinced an extraordinarydilligonce in study', and would allow noone to surpass him. His favorite branch,in which be excelled, was the science ofengineering, and it is in this departmentthat he mainly won his military renown,lie Gist gained fame in Algeria, where hedistinguished himself at the seige and cap-tar- e

of Constantino. He was afterwardsattached to the French expedition sent torestore Rome to the Pope, and was hon-

ored as the bearer of the keys of that cityto the fugitive Pontiff at Gueta. He sub-

sequently added to his distinction by hisskill as the commander of engineers atBomersnnd. In the Crimean war he wassent to investigate the operations at

where, as chief of engineers, hogreatly contributed to the capture of theAlnlakoff. For his services here he recei-

ved the decoration of the Legion of Hon-

or. In the war for Italian unity agdnstthe Anstrians, he commanded the Fourtharmy corps of the Army of the Alps, andby his skillful management of tbe artillerydecided the battle of Solfprino in favorof the allied French and Italian armies.Ue was made n Senator in 1857, and Min-

ister of War in 18C7, which latter officehe held np to the time of his death. Hepossessed the entire confidence of the Em-

peror Napoleon. The health of MarshalNeil had been such for sometime past asto preclude hope of his recovery, and ourlatest French files, contain rumors that hewas about to resign his charge, and thatMarchal liazaine was to be bis successor.

ration of tbe ship for the occasion ; andthe enjoyment of all the gnosis was thorough :so much so, in fact, that it was a late hour inthe morning before the yonthful dancers ceas-

ed to ' tread the misty mazes."

Ills Excellency tbe Governor of Oahu, ac-

companied by Mrs. Dominls, left for Hilo onMonday, In the schooner Tauatii. They in-

tend to be absent on Hawaii for three or fourweek6.

At tbe commencement of Colby University,Maine, held on the 11th of August, tho Hon-rar- y

Br advices from Hawaii, we learn that thevolcano of Kilauea is again in action. The"Old South Lake," wbicb, our readers will

recollect, has been for sometime nothing but a"big bole in tbe ground," is again filled withlava. Those who have visited tbe lake lately,anticipate that it will soon overflow and fill npthe great depression mado in ' its vicinityduring the convulsions of 1SGS. Althoughseveral shocks of carthquako have recentlybeen felt in Puna, it is confidently expectedthat when 3Iadam Pelo gets her fireworks

going after her old fashion, the people of thatvicinity will' be deprived of tbe pleasure ofhaving their "regular shocks" at irregularintervals.

Boat Race. A boat race for a new flag,will take place between tho Cara Bell,sailed by Thos. Clark, the Dauntlets, sailedby Joe Brewster, and the Harlot, sailedby J. Gnrney. The boats will start from thewharf makat of Brewer & Co.'s store, be-

tween the hours of one and two this P. 31.

The course will be from tbe place of startingtothelccward of the Spar buoy, thence roundthe Bell buoy from tbe leeward, thence backto tbe Spar buoy and again round the Bell

buoy and return to the windward of the Casebuoy inside the harbor. All three of theboats were built expressly for fast sailing;and as the friends of each boat are sure theirfavorite will win, our readers may expect towitness an exciting race.

Most of the party seizedtbe tackle of the brig, and tried to get onboard her. The Bishop was unable to re-cover his footing In the boat, and was carriedaway by the brig, still under sail, a consid-erable distance, hanging by his hands to thebowsprit, and up to bis middle in the water.He was eventually rescued by a small boat.Tlie Record, Aug. 18.

Cofffe. The Rev. J. C. Fletcher, lateof Brazil, now consul at Oporto, gives thefollowing information in a late lecture :

A (rood cup of coffee could not be madeby boiling the best cup goes np in smellto tho fourth story of the house, and peo-ple should brown and grind their own cof-fee. There is no way for the South andWest to get good coffee except to ask forthe golden Rio, or gold washed Rio. andwhen they ask for that they willget whatthy want. Coffee should be browned ina cylinder evenly, and not burned. Itshould be ground about like corn meal,and then one tablespoonful put in the potfor every cup. One cup of water for ereryfour cups of coffee is enough. It shouldnot be boiled, percolating is tbe onlyChristian way to make coffee. Whendone, pour one quarter of a cup of thedecolion in a cup, and fill up with boiledmilk. Ity this plan you will hare a drinkworthy of the gods. Water ani coffeehave no affinity for each other; boiledmilk only should be used.

There were grown in the different coun-tries in the years 18GG-G- 7 :

Of which 1.100,000 sacks came to tbeUnited States. It is also true that thebooks of oar custotn-lioase- show the im-

portation of but five sacks of Mocha fromAfrica in the past seven years. Tbe blos-som of the coffee plant is like tbe whitejessamine, and exhales an aroma worthyof Eden. At the head waters of La PlataI saw a stretch of coffee orchards 30 milesin extent. One planter, out of 450 acresof ground, made clear of all expenses, withseventy negroes, $48,000 in gold.

Ithad never been the battleground of party men.Statesmen of various opinions show an honestdisposition to grapple with the difficulties sur-rounding this matter.

The Timet comments as follows on CardinalCullen's last Pastoral, and on the claims putforth by the Roman Catholio Bishops of Ire-land :

"They demand, over common education,exaltation of denominationalism language.Archbishop Cullcn must provoke resentment.The pretensions of the Catholic hierarchy to-

wards tbe Stato are intolerable. There is notone of their resolves on education which peo-ple will not impartially repudiate, and whichif brought before Parliament, would not berepealed. The lesson of the last two yearsseems lost on these prelates; they have notunderstood how a proposal of great modera-tion and acknowledged wisdom proved abor-tiv- o

last session, through the profound antipa-thy of Parliament, by applying public moneyto Catholic churches. The present proposi-tions arc about as hopeless as any that couldbe propounded. England and Scotland willuot listen to them. Even in Ireland they willnot command assent. By the classes interes-ted in higher education in Parliament theywould be mentioned only to be condemned."

Sept. 8. The 77n y, is indignant over the late outrages in China. Itsays: "Whether China understands that it isfor its advantage to keep order in its own do-

minions or not, England is resolved to insistthat it must keep tbe .Mandarins under propercontrol. We shall refuse the responsibility ofmaintaining peace if there is any founaationfor the suggestion that the Government is trying to deceive the Western Powers by the pretended power tn establish more direct rela-tions. It is hard to understand bow we shouldenter into war under less favorable conditions,because the outrages are really the acts of the3fandarins delegated from Pekin.

" Should war arise, it would be unquestionably our interest to stipulate that fulfillment oftne terms of tbe treaty be assumea solely bythe Chinese; our Government, in giving thechances of success to the Burlingame mission,may be accomplishing peaceably what it mightbe compelled to effect by force. The presentalarm will give no cause to distrurt tho recently recognized doctrine that it is better for for-eigners trading with China to make it the bus-

iness of the Central Government to keep to.treaties and oblige its subjects to do so.

The correspondent of the Grand Rapids(Mich.,) Eagle, gives the following account

of bow an engineer was chased by fire atthe rate of TO miles an hour:

To make it an intelligible matter to thereader, let me say that the Buffalo, Corryand Pittsburg railroad intersects the LakeShore road at this place. The station attho junction is named Broclon. Now letit be understood that from this point toMaysviIIe, at tne bead ol Cuataqua Lake,a distance of only about ten miles, a trainis carried over nn elevation of 700 feet.From tbo station to the summit, the eradiis about SO feet to tho mile, with curveswhich increase the distance by about fourmiles. It is over this road that immensequantities of petroleum are bremrht.

On Tuesday evening, about 9 o'clock.train consisting of six oil cars and twopassenger cars reached the summit, on itsway to the junction. Here, by some causeas yet unexplained, one of the oil tankstook fire. The passenger cars were atonce detached, and the brakes stoppedthem. Xeit, the oil care were cut of,and the locomotive, tender, and box-ca- r,

containing two valuable horses and twomen, passed down tho road, the engineersupposing mat tne brakemen on the oilcars would arrest their course, but whatwas bis horror, on looking back, to see thesix cars in pursuit of him down the gradienveloped in flames. They not onlv pursued, but overtook him, striking the boxwith inconceivable force, knocking themen and horses flat upon the floor, and yetalmost miraculously not throwing tne engine irom lue track.

it was now, with the engineer, a racefor life, and he gave the engino everyounce 01 steam. jooKing soutu lrom theplace ol my residence, at this terrible mo-

ment, ona of the most magnificent spectacles wa3 witnessed that a man see3 in s

A sheet of intensely brightname, iu ieei nigu, was seen coming downthat slope, apparently with the speed of ameteor, and really very nearly the speed ofa uurncane ; ior pursued ana pursuer Lewover the course, or rather down it, andaround the curves, at the rate of morethan i0 miles an hour, as the engineer declares, and as everybody can believe whosaw the spectacle. The whole heavenswere illuminated, and the landscape waslit up as by the noonday light. Onwardand downward flew the engine, and behindit flew and thandered the huge fiery demon. 1 wice, 119 prouigious weigiu wasdriven against the fugitive, as if instinctwith a purpose to drive it from the track,It seemed as if, to the heroic engineer andforeman, there was a perfect environmentof peril. The speed of tho engine wassuch that it ceased to pump ; then, again,tne uincinnati tram was due at tbe junction at tnis time. 1 be engineer of th

whistled "open switch," andshaking hands with the fireman, they badeeach other farewell, knowing that theirlives uepenueci on the openmg of thoLake Shore switch by their friends below,and this was to imperil the express traincoming aown irom me iv est, with its living human freight. The engineer on thistrain saw the fire when it first broke out atthe sammit, and supposing that he coaldclear tho junction before the flaming terrorreached it, he, too, pnt his engine to theutmost speed on a level grade. A mileshort of tbe junction, he saw that theeffort was a vain one, for the flying conflagration had rushed out upon the LakeShore track, and was roaring onward inthe direction of Dunkirk. He checkedthe headlong rush of his own train, andbrought it to a standstill. It did not proceed tin o o ciock in tne morning.

1 ne case took; in anotlier danger, and itwas imminent. A heavy .freight train wascoming np the Lake Shore road. All Iwill say of the escape of this is that it didescape to the side of the track, and onlyescaped oy tne last minute 01 possibility.Running on to a safe distance from thedepot, the engineer of the detached ins engine, and left the six cars toconsume. lie says his situation was realized by bim. lie expected to lose his fe,

At every moment he expected tho engineto leave tne tracK. lie Eaw lie was goinai a perilous rate 01 epeeu, put there wasno help for it. The demon was behindhim, and he declares that it looked like ademon. ith that fondness, or real affection for an engine, which these men disnlav.he said : " 1 thought everything of myengine, and was determined to stay by it

tempt to escape by jumping from thetender, but the engineer restrained him.

Altogether, the circamstanco wasmarkable one, and in part remarkable forthis that no lives were lost. The brake- -man on tbe had gone back to thepassenger-car- s when the started.It wa3 well they did. Unless those carsbad been detached and stopped, their iu- -

maies wonia nave Durnt to death.

Beware of Pore. Amonir the natieraread at the Science Association held inSalem was one by Professor Baker Edwards, ol .Montreal, on that horrible disease known aa " trichiniaei3." Most neopie by this time have heard that nork issometimes full of worms, and that theseworms, beinjr introduced into the humanbody, flourish and multiply there, much totne Dooys detriment.

The Hurabupr of History.

" Don't talk to me about your historicalfacts," said a raradox-lovinf- f friend of oursthe other day; "I've seen so many so- -

called accepted facts upset, that I reallyintend some line morninz to commencebig book on my own account, under thetitle 01 iue llnmouffs ot History.The idea was not perhaps altogether a badone, although, perhaps, a man would haveto attain the length of years of Methuse- -

Did not the American Mr. Emerson, onlya lew years ago. take down our nationalpride several pegs by gravely showing usbow our patron saint, "St. George forMerrie England," wa3 nothing better thana low imposter, originally hailing fromCilicia, who got a lucrative contract forsupplying the army of Ills timo and country with bad bacon : got rich by Irandtheft, and by the arts of a common informer : turned religious adventurer, andbribed his way to the Bishopric of Alex-andria ; and nt last, after being imprisoned for his crimes, was dragged oat of jailand lynched by an angry mob, in A.3511 After this he became in due timesaint, and so undeservedly famous ; just asin nnolber way tnanke, .Mr. .bmmersonfor your very refreshing candor AmerigoVespucci, "the pic&Ie dealer at fcerille.whose highest naval rank wo3 boatswainmate in an expedition that never sailedmanaged to supplant Columbu3, and baptize ball tbe eartn with his own dishonestname." Have we not in our school-day- s

bugged to our little bosoms the notionthat Brutus stabbed Julius Caesar purplyfor patriotism's sacred sake ? And nowwo must be told, forsooth and alas, battoo convincingly, by heavy German historical "big wig3 tbat, it being the customin eld Bomo for the nobles to lend theplebeians money at terribly usurious rates01 interest.

Yet what manner of man really wasthis Air. 1 nomas Uuvi A clover stockjobber, a miser also, and speak it softly,witli bis une Hospital looming in tbe distance a man who fattened on the wrongsof the poor cheated English seamen of1113 day.

The Instrument for thk Frencti Cable. The instrument prepared for theFrench Cable, which is now in Boston, isremarkable for its simplicity. It is, sub--

stantially,"tbe same 03 that now in nse intransmitting messages over the EnglishCable. It was found too slow a process touse tbe common relay instrnment used inland lines, as it requires s current of toogreat power, and also consumed too muchtime, only about threo or four words beingsent per minute. By the present instrument, about a dozen words can be sent.The instrument is a small tube about fourncbes long, liko a Email telescope, about

an incu in diameter. .Midway in this tuba13 hung, transversely, by a delicate eilkfiber, a circular piece of mirror, acrosswbicb is a fine magnetic needle. Aroundtho tube is coiled tho fine wire throntrhwhich the current is sent in this case acoil containing 20,000 circles, forming awheel, if it may be so called, of aboutthree inches in diameter. 1 here are twokeys, and when one is touched, it causesthe needle to swerve to the east, and whenthe other U touched, it causes it to turnto the west. Of course, in this motion,the mirror is turned with it. Facing themirror, and two or three feet from it. is abox containing a bright light, with a monthlike a photographer's camera, directedtowards the mirror. The light is thrownupon the mirror, and reflected from that

pon a wall, upon which 13 a perpendicularlack mark. Upon this mark, when thenstrument is not in operation, the per

pendicular line of light rests perfectly still.v nen one ot tbe keys is touched, and tbe

magnetic needle 13 moved, it moves themirror, and tbe reflected line of light uponthe wall is moved to tbe right or left ofthe black mark. The Morse alphabet isused, omitting the spaced letters thosewhere two dots or two dashes come together. A movement of tbe light onceto tbe right of the black mark is a dash,and to the left, a dot. This i3 the wholeof the machinery by which messages are6entacros3 the Atlantic. The batteryrequired is very small, and a thimblefull ofacid and metal will work it. When oneof tbe keys i3 touched at Daxbury, tbelittle line of light will move within abouttwo-tent- of a second at Brest, and thefirst message will have begun. It requirestwo men to receive a message one towatch the light in a darkened room, andannounce " dot," or " dash," 03 the light 13

moved, to a clerk who records the letters.Boston Journal.
