THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 29, 1860.
English Politics and Policy.,.
In some weeks from this time the British
Parliament will ho in session. Lord. Pin.
meeston is likely to have n pretty hard time
of it next year. At the age of seventy-six,
and with fifty-four years’ experience in ofl3£e
—apolitical Vicar ot Bray who has constantly
adhered to place, without any consistency at
all—his practice, of late, has been to stavef qfl
discussion upon difficult and troublesome
questions. So that the old chariot of State,
patched and pieced by many, and sometimes
incongruous repairs, can only last his time,
he cares very little for tho inturo. 'the way
in which he contrives to manage Parliament
and the People is surprising. Were Roukrt
Macaire at the Treasury Chambers, White
hall, instead oi Lord Palmebston, tho affairs
of England could not be more adroitly
managed than they are. Tho Palmerston
policy is to hoax the British public, by .in),
mense promise and infinitesimal performance.
A Reform Bill, promised four years agd, and
deferred from Session to Session, onvarihus
pretences, was brought forward last Spring,
and it is doubtful whether tho Tories whq op
posed, or the Prime Minister who rolucwptly
produced it, was most gratified at its rejection
by tho House of Commons. > i
There will scarcely be any.new Reform hill
introduced, as a Government measure, in the
approaching session. PAutsnstqS, a Toty in
grain, does not want to extend the privileges,
of the masses. Few of his colleagues are
anxious for Parliamentary Reform.' The Aris
tocracy, do not want it. Above all, Qaeejn
Viotohia, indoctrinated with the contracted
principles and politics of her Gormanhusband,
who, we doubt not; considors the revolution in
Italy as the saddest catastrophe oi modern
times, cannot much desire to have tho power
the People increased, by granting them the po
litical and social rights to which they aro'enti
tled. Mr. Bbioht, leader of the popular sec
tion of the Commons, may not be disheart
ened by the failure of his numerous and stre
nuous efforts in favor of Reform, but he must
feel, sanguine though ho ho, that it Is hope
less, in the prosont temper of Parliament, fo
attempt any thing moro.
Though troublosomo Reform bo burked, as
a Parliamentary subject, thcro aro sovorai other
questions which, in tho ensuing Session, are
likely to provo troublosomo and trying to tlio
Palmerston Cabinot. Prominent among these
aro Bankruptcy Bill, tho groat suhjeet of Law
Reform, tho great and growing coit of tgo
China War, and the eternal apprehension of
French invasion,—which last is about. Utmost
improbable of Napoleon's anticipated move,
monts. Lastly, tho Foreign Policy of'Eigland,
so strangely mismanaged by that most Inca
pable aristocrat, Lord John Russell, will
causo much tronblo to aged FalkeestOh.
The commercial intoreßts of England de
mand tht)t tho Law of Bankruptcy, jind Its
administration, too, shall bo changcdao that
creditors'shall no longer. coinpliiaftf its ox
penso, delay, and incertitude. La{f/oeSBiori,
Sir lticuAED Bethel, Attorney . General of
England, introduced a now Uanlsropipj’ Law,
containing abont five hundred'clauses, which
tho Commons bad not tinffito logjsfc&supon
r-Tbe- other -day; at L’oclb, Lord pAiairairOlf
told the merchants who addressed him on tho
question that, though-Bethel’s Bankruptcy
BUI was a Government measure, he (Iho head’
of the Administration) had neveroncCioaA
tho,hin. There Will bo i
cußsion upon it, the measure win finally drop |
Into the tomb of all the Capulota. ’ .• j

been made, but anything likeapraeticasolu

Colonel F. W. Lander.
The next arrival from California, via Pana
ma, will bring to us Hon. Revebdy Johnson,
Hon. Judah P. Benjamin, and Colonel P. W".
Lander. Mr. Johnson and Mr. Benjamin
have boon engaged in the Great New Almaden
cases before the United States courts in Cali
fornia. Colonel Lander has just completed
the wagon road between the Honeyloke valley
and the sink of Humboldt, by grading and
sinking reseivoirs, &c., and otherwise putting
the road in excellent condition for the vast
overland emigration which annually journeys
across the plains to California. This labor
was effected while the war was progressing
between the whites and savages, under cir
cumstances of great danger. Ho accom
plished an armistice between the Pah-Ute
tribe of Indians and the whites. 'A. very in
teresting description is given of his interview
with these Indians, which we copy from the
1 Alta California paper.
Col. Landor, affor fco T ng and hearing all tbnfc
could bo known ccncernlng theso difficulties, re
solved tohnvo an interview with thoohiof of the tribo
of the powerful Pah-Utcs, and, accordingly, sent
for Winnemuoka, thclrwarehiof On beiugbronght
face to fneo, tbo gallant chiei~one of the nobloat of
our Amerioan savages—said that bo would look at
the Colonel and his men when the sun was low, and
then he would be ready to talk.
At tbo appointed boar a conference was had.
Tho Colonel oommouce& the conference by saying
that he camo as a listener, but oould make no pro
mises. 'When the Great Father heard from hie
children, the.Pah-Utes, he would know what to do.
Ho might bo aogrybeoause his children had been
killed, and he might cond warriors to revenge their
.doath.
The ohief’s reply was characteristic of the raoe.
He said that when he asked the white ohief to
wait until night before he would talk, it was not
’because he liked the darkness. His heart was
very open; it was like the sunshine, but some
clouds had been before him; many of bis young
men had been killed, and he saw in tho white
men’s train mon who had killed them ; his Ireath
'teas hot, it might have burnt ears, had he spoken
too soon; now he had sat upon the white chiefs
blanket, he bad eaten of his moat, and, at last,
had smoked the pipe, and was quiet.
Colonel Lander responded that he had brought

had killed, and who had been robbod by them of
his house and home; and that none of nis family
had .ever injured & Pah-Ute. If Winnemuoka
wished to talk to women, he would send a woman
to him.
The ohief replied indignantly: “Is Winne
muoka a woman that he Should go to counoll with
women? No, he is a man!” striking forcibly his
breast as he spoke. Ho then continued in a strain
of impassioned eloquence: “The

have fallen sine© they camo to see Winnemuoka.
They were few, and they woro very poor. They
promised us all Wo wanted, but the whites had
been untrue to their promises. The country be

whites had taken the Indian ponies, and their
buoksklhs, and often failed in their obligations-to

always ready to oat and to bark, butmuoh of their
talk was not good.”
Winnemuoka dwelt frequently cn the promi
ses made to him and broken, and said he was glad
tp,sona white man who oame without promises.
Colonel Landor replied, and referred to the hap
piness of the Cherokees, Delawares, and other In
dians, whom tho whites had taught to farm.
The Indian warrior again responded, and said
that he was willing to go on to a reserve with his
people, but tbe whites heretofore had not kept their
promises, He wanted cattle andjploughs, and the
means of making flour. He then sat for some ilmo
in sile&oo, and, throwing off his blanket, exclaimed,
in tones truly oratorical, “ Irishman oome, Dutch
man come, American man come, John Chinaman
oome; dig ’im hole, hod ’inihole; no glvoPah-

marking, “Winnemuoka dio; he onre no more
Ho furthermore remarked that the Pah-Utes had
been shot) and their women ravished, without his
flebtiog; that one of his sons had been killed at
Virginia City, and that still he did not desire to
fight.
Winnemuoka, in his interview with Col. Landor,
acknowledged that his solo deslro was, to have his

PERSONAL AND POLITICAL.
' A Visit to Wheatland.
[ Correspondence of The Press.]
Lancaster, Not. 26,1860. -
Dear Press : A few afternoons ago, lured by
a bright sun, and a cool, braoing, autumn atmos
phere, I found myself careering, school-boy like,
over fences, and grain fields verdant with early
promise, until exhaustion hinted the decay of boy
hood’s powers of endurance. Depressed at the
thought that my physical tenaoity so longer exist
ed as in days whilom, I seated myself on a broad
top-rail to reoover the breath my gambols had cost
me, and perhaps to obtain at the same time a more
extended view of the riches lavished by tbe hand
of Nature on this ohosen spot of earth. Prom, the
light came up to me the hum of Bteam-driven loonis
and spindles, and the ten thousand occupations of
man commingled in indistinguishable din. North
ward spread out.the undulating landscape; oheok
ered by brown plough-broken and graln-verduxed
fields, receding until the eye fails its distinguish
ing power in the blue haze of the distant hills-
Westward and southward the eye sweeps the sum
mits O of the Susquehanna, hemming ridges, and
oatohes, through the orisp, transparent air of this
magnificent fair day, the tall columns of smoke
marking the sites of the furnaoes, at the foot of the
Cinques, and at the mouth of the Conestoga. At
my feet, and far off between the green fields runs
the limestone maoadamiced road, marking its
presence by its while track over the verdant
slopes.
Close at hand, and in the vfery bosom of this
enohanting landscape—a landscape that Claude 4f
Lorraine would have dwelt upon with rapture,
and penciled with the inspiration of his art—lies
Wheatland, the home of James Buchanan. Pass
ing through the little turn-stile on the summit of
the slight eminence behind the mansion, I hasten
ed along the reoentiy improved noticed the
freshly trimmed vines, and new trellises, over
whioh they will creep when tho spring shall come,
descended the winding slope where the eld New
foundland dog met me, wagging his tail in a
friendly manner, as though he recognized in me
one whom his master was delighted to honor with
a friendly grasp of the hand in days gone by, and
crossing tho wide gravellod carriage-way, stood
upon tbe poroh along whioh Mr. Buohanan had
often paoed to and fro, pondering the hopos and
fears attendant on his ambition—tho Presidency.
Tho house and grounds are undergoing a thorough
refitting. Paper-hangers, upholsterers, paintors,
sorubbors, cleaners, whitewashes, and gardeners,
are all or have been busy preparing for the recep
tion of Mr. Buchanan alter he shall have retired
from the direction of, and active participation in,
tho affairs of Government. In all the improve
ments and ohanges there is still exhibited that
good taste whioh has ever ohar&oterlzed Mr. Bu
chanan : nothing flashy ; ne effort to bowilder, <|r
embarrass tbe visitor by elaborate display. The
impression is at once received, on crossing the
threshold, of simple, unpretending comfort. Upon
this entire absonoe oi all ornament, an ingenious
pensioner of tho President might base a oorollary
of sterling of&olal qualities, and the-envious, dis
appointed applicant infer the niggard economy of
tho individual. lam neither, and look npon It as
it is.
Wheatland is a fitting place to terminate a long
and eventful life. Here, undisturbed, with his
eye resting upon the teomlng aorea around him,
may the man who has ascended the pinnaole of his
earthly ambition fitly ask himself: ** Have I done
well ? Have 2, who have had the guidance of a
nation’s destiny, fulfilled to the best of my ability
that nation’s wishes and expectations? Haye
there been no ignoble jealousies, ip the pursuit of
which tho groat interests of my countrymen have
been wholly lost sight of?” I hope James Bn
ohsnan may not, find in these questions self-aeon
sations. ;
I asked myself if the events of Ur. Buchanan's
life would throw a ohnrm mound Wheatland snob
as the tourist foals on his approaoh to Monticello,
Ashland, and the Hermitage ? Will the American
oitizen feel that veneration for his memory he does
for that of Jefferson, Olay, and Jaokson? Will tie
ex.Presldent in hla retirement be cheered to the
end of his days by ardent personal attachments and
•unremitting.kindnesses of life-long associates?
Will the Democratic partj listen to voice from
Wheatland, as the koy-note of its campaigns, as'it
did to thatfromMontioello and the Hermitage, and
Urnold Whig party did to that from'Ashland ?
diality gush ttour uaJumdecL hospitality and oor
as perennially flowed from those of the vfrgmiap,
and that of the South Carolinian ? These questions
may be answered affirmatively by the very few
ardent admirers of .Wheatland’s sage, but after
witnessing the entire sevoranoo of all of the old
800 i®l ties by the President within hiß executive
term, Xdo him but justice to say that they will
generally bo answered negatively. The qualities
of the men whom I have mentioned were wholly
different. Originality and steadfastness of pur
pose, based on popular sentiment, were the cha
racteristics of the departed worthies, while of jtr.
Buohanan it may bo written, as Maoanlay wrote of
Oharles the First: “The whole principle of his
government was resistance to publio opinion; nor
did he make any concessions to that opinion till it
mattered not whether he resisted or oonoeded; till
the nation, whioh had long ceased to !ovehim<or
trust him, had at last ceased to f6ar him.”
Of the throe statesmen to whom I have referred
Mr. Buohanan boars, perhaps, tholoastresemblanoe
to Jaokson. Certainly no two Presidents of the
United States had such antipodal eharaoterlstios.
Their biographies side by side will be antithetical •
Jaokson bold and fearless; Buohanan cautious'
timid, and fearful. Jaokson always governed by
an Intuitive judgment, seldom or never In errdr;
Buchanan setting it aside to pursue a crafty policy*
sure to be punished by historical censure. Jaok
son always initiative of measures of pnblio good ;
Buohanan imitative of measures generally dlsaa

and the admiration of foreign nations; Buchanan

meeting of the Cabinet.
TUB ADMINISTRATION ON TAB CRISIS,
[From the Now York Herald of yesterday.]
Another protracted session of tho Cabinet was
held to-day. The message and reports of Secreta
ries wore under consideration. Tho former, as
also those of the latter, are ready to be put in
typo.
Muoh has boon said and more written respecting
tho message of the President touching the questions
at issue betweon the North and the South. If both
seotious will but follow the wise and reasonable
rooommendatlons of the President, the foarfuland
alarming orisis that is upon us may be averted
He agrees with the South that they havo just cause
to oomplain of the North, but that they can settle
and adjust their grievances and proonre the rope
ration required better in the Union than out of it.
He is understood to recommend a general conven
tion of all the States for the purpose of diseussing
oalmly and deliberately the questions at issue; If
the two seotlons, after a fair hearing on both aides,
cannot arrange the difforenoos, if the North refuse
to concede the just and equitablo demands of tho
South, suoh as repealing the obnoxious laws that
are now upon the statnto-books in many of the
States, and guarantying to the South her just
rights under the Constitution, then, if thoy must
separate, lot it be in poaoe.
The President maintains that by a little oonocs
eion and forbearanoe on both sides, tho impending
disasters may be avorted.
Tho President maintains that a Slate has not the
constitutional right to seoodo, and is sustained in
this position by every member of his Cabinet ex
oopt Messrs. Cobb and Thompson. Ho argues the
question ably and elaborately, but he will not at
tempt coercion. Ho will inform the South as well
;s| the North, that while he is President of the
United btatea he is bound by his oath to see tho
laws exeouted.
Hia message Is mild and conciliatory throughout.

THE PULPIT.
Sermon on the Resurrection.
BT BEY. I. D. WILLIAMSON, D. D.
[Reported for Ihe Presa.)
For several weeks past, the Boy. I. D. William-
D. D., pastor of the Ohuroh of the Messiah,
(Univerealist,) oorner of Juniper and Locuit
streets, has been prooohing a series of discourses
on the subject of Immortality , from the text in
Job, xiv.,l4: “ If aman die, shall he lire agAin?”
and on last Sunday, as a fitting conclusion to' the
course, ho disouased the subject of the Resurreo
tion, taking for his text the following: “ But some
man will say, How are the dead raised up ? and
with what body do they come ? 1 Cor., xv, 35.
As introductory to our synopsis of this closing
discourse, we may state that .the preceding dh<p
were intended, in some degree, to establish the
doctrine of the soul’s Immortality by a process of
reasoning, independent of Revelation. Starting
out with the admission, that the subject to be con
sidered was outside the domain of human science,
and hence beyond the province of absolute know
ledge. he undertook to lay a reasonable founda
tion for what can alone be received, by faith.
Thus, it was assumed that the soul of mail
is something, and that it exists, not because
of the body in which, it dwells, but, on the
oontrary, that the soul is the cause or arch!-,
teot of the physioal organisation in which it pre
sides. As, then, the soul was not a shadow or
mere phenomenon, but a substance, its continued
existence in some form, whether in the body or
ont of it, was a necessary result, from the fact that
the laws of the human mind rendered the thonght*
of an absolute end —of. roduoing something to
nothing—an utter impossibility; and whatever was
entirely incongruous with any of God’s law*,
whether of mind or matter, the speaker held,
could not be true. - In this sense the testimony of
heathen philosophers, respecting the Immortality
ef the soul, was worthy of consideration ,* for, al
though they had'not revelation to guide them,
they, nevertheless,, saw by their own light that,
as the mind could not oonoeivo or think of an
absolute end, the eonl must continue to exist;
hence their systom of (t transmigration,’? and other
theories. Nor did this endless existence’ of the soui
apply any less to the component atoms of the body.
Tho body, as suoh, might be utterly destroyed
as a constituted organization, but the idea of its
annihilation was inadmissible. The questions,
How shall we exist hereafter? Whether we shall
know ourselves as the same identical beings that
we now are ? And have & consciousness of our
selfhood and of each other? were also considered,
and affirmatively decided by the speaker, by a
. course of reasoning founded upon the known laws
of attraction. Thus he assumed, that whatever
attr&ots or is attracted is, and so it was but the
simplest decision of common sense to say that the
soul could not be drawn towards Heaven, immor
tality, and their concomitants, if these things did
not exist. So, that faith, he held, rested upon
the two-fold basis of Divine Revelation, addressed
to the reason, and the irreversible laws of the
Greater, manifested in the law of thought, and the*
God-given attractions of the soul, as the indices pf
destiny, given not to mock or deceive, but to'guide
and direct. How to the queries of the dosing dis
course, “How are the dead raised up? Anawitk
what bodies do they come?”
The world, the speaker said, was not satisfied to
know the general fact about this matter, but
wanted to Know the particulars; and it was very
remarkable that all other systems except the Be*
llgion of tho Bible seemed disposed to gratify this
onrioslty, The heathen poets Indulged in all sorts
of dreams and fiotioss upon-this subject, and, if
we could believe them, were quite as familiar with
the topography of the future world,' and with foe-
Btate and condition of its inhabitants, as they were
with this-world. Mahomed followed In the same
track, and professed to give the particulars of that
state of existence. Swedenborg abounded in theta
descriptions of the spirit world; and modern
Spiritualism was the latest attempt to gratify
this curiosity to kuow tho unknowable, and see
the invisible. If we returned.to the Bible, the
case was widely different; Whilst in the Old Tes
tament the/writers.conceded the existence of the
sonl in some manner after death, there was not
one of them that pretended tolmpio/ioip. They said
the soul wenb to She'ol; the invisible underworld,
coneealed from mortal HoW, Or in.what
state.or cocdition<it existed, they knew not; and
hence their silence. It was indeed remarkable
that, In the eutiro Old Testament-theta was not
one word on these subjects,. They contented
themselves with the fact that the souls of 4he dead
were in Sheol, and Tested In hope'that UsHarkriess
should sometime be enUghtenea. ' !■ \- ' * 3
Even in the Nev? Testament there was little said
on the subjeot,' next to nothing in regard to* the

of his day, Dr. Williamson said that this answer
was general, and not particular, and might bo
summed up aafollows: *
1. Jesus deoldes against the Ssddusees, who said
there was neither angel nor spirit, and admita the
faot of spiritual existence.
2. That state differs from this, in the loot that
there being no material bodies there, there is
no institution of marriage after the fashion of this
world.
3. The inhabitants of that world are immortal.

children of God, becanse they are
oblldren of the resurrection.
And now, if we are persuaded that what Jesns
teaohes is true, why .need we inquire what food
the denizens of that world eat ? or what olothes
they wear? what houses they live in? and what
employments they have? The text <o whioh he
was now about to refer more particularly was
almost the only other instance in the New Testa
ment where there is an attempt to explain the
modo of the future life, ‘‘Bow are the dead raised
.up? and with what body do they come?” Xhi*
mght be paraphrased, thus: now are the dead
raised up? Is it lodily i or otherwise? And if
bodily, is it the same body? The answer of the
aposue to this was to be noted. “ Thou fool!” (it
is neither) “tnat whioh thousoweatis not quiok
ened except It die. And thou sowest not that
body that shall be, but bare grain, H mayohanoeof
wheat or some other grain. Bat God giyeth it
a body as it hath pleased him, and to every seed
his own body.” Xn other words, As the seed that
is sown is not the body of the grain that shall be •
so this (onr) body is not the body that shall olothe
the spirit in the resurrection. The Idea, therefore
that the dead shall come in these same bodies that
die, was foolishness. Bnt if not in these bodies,
then with what bodies do they come? Paul an
swers. God giveth it a body as it hath pleased
him; and that it would bo appropriate, ought not
to bo doubted. God’s infinity of resource In fur
nishing a body suitable waa referred to by Paul
when ho spoke, in this oonneotion, of the different
kinds of flesh, and bodies terrestrial and celestial,
all varying as one star dtffereth from another star;
though they are all glorious; “ so also is the resur
rection of the dead." How? bimply thus: The
body that shall oomo forth shall he glorious,
though it shall differ from this mortal body, and
from all othor earthly bodios, as tho moon differs
from tho sun. “It Is sown a natural body, it Is
raised a spiritual body That is something new l
But there is a spiritual body, just as truly gj there
is a natural body. Tho first Adam, it Is written
was made a living soul, thelaat Adam was mado a
quiokening spirit. The first waa out of the earth
earthy; tho teoond man was the lord from heaven!
and so surely as wo havo borne the imago of tho
earthy, wo shall boar the image of the heavenly
Flesh and blood oannot inherit that kingdom. But
when that ohanga comes; when this corruption shall
have put on Inoorruption, and this mortal shall
have put on immortality, then shall be brought to
pass the saying that is written, “Death is swal
lowed up in victory.”
A Lunatic in Windsor Castle On Sun
day evening, a young gentleman of respeotable
appearance and address presented hlmseii before
.the two sentinels at the gato on Castle Hill, who
stopped hitnv stating that It was the entrasco only
for the royal family, on whioh tbe stranger said,
“I am the Prince of Wales,” when, from his gen
tlemanly manners, the sentinels presented arms,
and suffered him to pass. On proceeding along the
passages be was met by one of the royal setvants,
who Inquired hie business, when he said, “ I am
the Prince of Wales, and am going to «e*-my mo

aooompany him, and introduce him to the superin

insane, oonveyed him to the safe keeping of Mr.
Pallin, of the Old Windsor Union. It was ulti

GUERILLA WARFARE.
[From the N. 0, Picayune, 23d.1
This morning’s western mail brings us in late and
interesting intelligence from Sonora, whioh a ©or
iXiteLV?r Btm ' Ari,oaa ‘ T<mohwfor as re-
Indian Mbrdees.—A patty of Yaqui Indians,
about the 20th ult., mado a night descent news the
Chino Gordo ranche, four leagues from HenaiUo,
and committed the most inhuman outrages. Thev
killed the men and children, ravished the women
set fire to all the buildings, destroyed grain!
and laid waste one of the finest ranches in Sonora
The ranche was owned by the brothers Oriedo.'who
fell victims to the massacre ’
The Bonoea Revolution.—Two day. after this
event, a battle oocnired between the Liberals, un
der Colonel Morales, and tho Conservatives, under
General Gabolonda, at tho ranohe las Animas
within two leagues of the Chino Gordo. The Llbe!
ral foroeawero loss than 50ft, and the Conservative
consisting or both Y&quii and Mexloana, wasmuoh

Ohas. D. Poston, former director of this company,
arrived in tho last stage. Ho has effected a lease
of tho mine and reduc.ion works of the oompauy
for ten years, and will at once commence oper»>
lions on his own account. The affairs of the com-
Kware in a very critical position, s.nd ftiling
cir attempts to obtain money for.tho enter
prise, they had the alternative of accepting 001.
Poston’s proposition, or being declared insolvent.
Tho rascality whioh has characterized the manage
ment of the company for the l&it two yesrs, and
tho bulls in tho board, who tried to bellow up the
stook, as well as the boars who attempted to depre
date it, have entirely overreached themselves.
No provision has been made for the immediate set
tlement of liabilities, and it is extremely doubtful
whether the exasperated creditors in Asitou* will
permit a transfer of the mines without oppodtioa.
Though.mob law and violence arc to be ddpreea
ted, while Congress denies us the proteotfon of 7e
deral courts, wo have no other mode of redrea fa*
obtaining ear rights. *
It is noticed, ua a singular fact, that the
three most rampant Disunion Journals north of
Rlohmond are edited or owned by foreigners. The
Constitution is editod by an Irishman; the Bel
timore Shr by an Englishman, and the New York
Herald by a Sootohm&n. A great deal hat been
written about 4 British gold 5 * as an agent of die
oord in onr. internal affairs. If there was any
truth in these stale election oharges, what would
be more probable than that these British Disunion,
fits were in the pay of the British Gmuxdnest?
The course of the Baltimore Sun astonishes the
people of Washington. Itistsken here nen aton
ing paper by thousands of Union men who will
hot much longer tolerates Secession papbr at their
breakfast tables.— Cor. N. T. Evenin/r'Ptst.
