Th benadou Pftii in Law for tha
Pruteeilou of AmrleBl Abroidi
'JYom ih LondonTimta, July 29.
The passlLg by the two Houses of Congress of
Ihe brll for the protection et naturalized Ameri
can citizens abroad will not take any one by
surprise. The capture, trial and punishment oi
everal Irishmen, who, having lived some time
in America, returned lor the purpose ot exciting
a rebellion "in their native couBiry, have natu
rally made some stir la the Siates. Tne
foreign -born citizens are sensitive on tne subject
of their acquired rights, and the native-born
have the orlinar? patriotic feeling concern
ing the power ot their country to defend all
w ho belong to It. The jealousy which is al ways
latfnt netween raiiuLB, and which can
barely be said to be latent in the disposition of
Americans towards Eneland, has been in this
case sltilhully Instigated by politicians. First
come the Fenians themselves, whose single
desire. In their action on American prlitics, is
to provoke a breach with England. While tbey
try to the utmost the forbearance of th's coun
try, while tbey violate tbe law of nitlonB, and
of the Union, by pruji-cts of armed invasion,
devised and executed on American soil, they
lose no opportunity of representing their agents
as American citizens condemned by British
Courts cn tbe ground that they are still Drtitsh
subjects, and as now undergoing punishment
for acts done beyond tbe limits of tne
ErttUh Empire. The Irish vote is powerful,
and iieilher party in the Kepublic can attord to
disregard it. Political men iu America have
therefore acted as if they believed that the
Feutan representatives pave an accurate view of
what has passed in Ireland, a great deal of
Indignation has been expressed at the supposed
violation by tbe English Government of the
Tights of American citizens, and both parties
have taken up the matter with an appearance
of earnest, furthered, no doubt, by the neces
sities of the coming election for President.
In the Democratic platform a paragraph
Is devoted to the assertion of "equal
rights and protection for naturalized and
native-born citizens at home and abroad,
aud the maintenance of the rights
of naturalized citizens again9t the absolute
doctrine of immutable allegiance, and the claims
ot foieign powers to punish them lor alleged
crime committed beyond their jurisdiction." At
the same lime the Republican majority iu Con
gress pats a bdl declaring that the right ot
expatriation Is an essential principle of the
Government, and enucting that "all naturalized
citizens of the United Sta es shall bo entitled to
and bhall receive from this Government the
same protection ol person and property that is
accorded to na-iveborn citizens in like situation
and circumstance."
The laree questions which enter Into the con
test beteen these two conflicting principles of
immutable allegiance and the right of expatria
tiou have been uequently discu-ned, and we do
not know that unymtng now can be said on the
subiect. The conclusion to which most thinking
men have come 1 thai, whatever may be the
moral lie which binds a man to tbe land of his
birth and the institutions of his father, It Is ex
pedient that he should be allowed to divest him
self ot Lis allegiar.ee when he bas become actually
and bona fide an inhabitant of another country.
Tbe old doctrine of permanent and heredi
tary allegianoe might have been easily re
duced to the absurd iu eni aReby very probable
instances ot its results, but it is utterly untena
ble at tbe rreeut time when the political divi
sions ot the world are broken up, and whole
popu'atlons are transferred across tbe ocean to
new homes. The Irlsn and Germans in Ame
rica, the Chinese In America and Australia,
wu-t be hel l to have mereed themselves into
tbe new commumth-s, and it would be a foolisa
pedantry to maintain any other test of na
VODRlity than is Involved In residence and
citizenship. Indeed, this would in practice be
admitted by any power. It Great Britrln and
the United Bia.es were unfortunately to be in
volved in war, no English officer would look
upon an Irishman settled in the States at a
traitor if he took up arms for his ne
country. There is noimng in the
doctrine propounded by the American
politicians that this country need deny or
oppose. If Irishmen go to America they aro at
lull liberty, so far as English opinion Is con
cerned, to consider themselves Americans, to
take out American passports, and tocoinoort
tbenii-eives as Americans should they think fit
to revisit these island. It technically they are
now held to be British subjects this Is became
tbe old docirixei concerning nationality have
not beeu overruled in a matter which in ordinary
times is not of much practical importance. If
it be thought rhtbt that in crasequenca ol the
great displacements ot population new princi
ples tball be explicitly declared, tbe British
Parliament and i ei'ple will lu no way object.
Provided the foreisn citizenship is honest, and
sot adopted to evade tome duty or to gain some
privilege, this country will be disposed to recog
nize it reallv in the case oi any expatriated
xative of the Empire.
fk Lts Lord Brougham.
In the House of Commons, oo the 27th ot July,
Mr. Roebuck, in asking the first Lord of the
Tr Bt-ury wne.hcr, iu consideration of the great
public ten ices ol L' rd I3iougham.it was tbe
intention of the (Joveronieut to propose the
erection of a muuunieut to bis memory in West
minster Abbey, moved tre adjournment of tbe
Houi-e in older that he might have an opportu
nity ot expressing tbe veueration which he felt
tor the memory ol tbe noblo lord; and also that
he might adord the right honorable gentleman
opposite an opportunity of expressing, in a tew
apt and eloquent sentences, nw sentiments -he
hoped he might add tbe lavorable sentiments
With which he remrded the sugges'ion.
Mr. Disraeli, in tbe couree or his remarks,
said: It may be truly said that no one more
completely represented his use, and no one
coutrbitud wore to tbe progress of hi time
thau did I.ord Brougham, who possessed almost
in excess two qualities which are tarely com
bined in the person of the same individual,
energy and perseveranc, with that influence of
creative power which comes from strength ot
character, and which alone sustained him iu a
career which was alike remarkable lor its dura
tion and for dazzling brightness, and wnicu has
raiely been witnessed In this country.
Mr. Gladstone also paid a fitting eulogy to
the departed statesman, saving:
His pablio career was emiuent for its con
sist) ncy, aud in most of tbe undertakings of his
life Itis'euergy was such as commanded success.
He was distinguished alike by an ardent love of
litty ud a hatred of abuse, while be was
distlntrulf-hed by a disinterestedness which con
unuaily tempted bim to diverge irom me pam
oi politics for tbo purpose of anticipating tbe
wants of con. log generations. To one point he
dtrec edhU particular attention, the improve
ment of the laws; and all who laoored in that
import ant field were sure ot Lord Brougham's
assistance and support. It Is deeply to be re
gretted that tbe remains of so dlsiinguUbed a
son oi bis country snouiu rest in a lurcigu iw,

The London correspondent of the finblln
Evening Man, writing on the 28th of July on tbe
subject ol tbe approaching marriage t Adellna
rttl, sajs:
la jour publication of the 25th, a quotation Is
male from some contemporary which is likely
to lead your musical readers astray on a most
In port nut point counected with the young lady
above named. It is there stated that "Mile.
Puttl maJeher last apvearance; that she had
retired from the stage in consequence
of her marriage, which Is to take
place this week." The Evening Matt having
been a13TS remarkaule tor the genuineness ot
its intelligence, I think it right to state that the
pitted songstress intends to appear upon tbe
stage lor five jours alter her marring?, under
tbe name that she has already made famous.
She has niadpetgagemen's tor tbeenutng three
years in Hi. Petersburg, Patis. and London, aud
she is to perform in St. Petersburg this aatumn.
The Marquis de Caux, to whom eho is to be
married, is a nobleman of ancient family, aud is
atprcseutEqurrry to the Emperor ol tbe French.
It will be gratifying to jour readers to learuthat
Ibe Marquise de Caux will continue to enchant
tbo lovers of cone under her maiden name of
Mile. Adelina Patti.
Educational Expenditures.
It appears that In the twenty-eight years end
ing March 31, 18G7, the expenditure ma le fur
educat onal purposes by the Government of the
United Kingdom amounted to 9.663.474, of
which, however, 991.080 or more tbin ten per
rent., was absorbed by expenses of administra
tion, and 13,204 In various miscellaneous
charges. The balance was absorbed by various
denominational schools, as follows: Church
of England, 5,669.743; British aud Foreign
Bchool Society, 859.215; Weslevan, 440,751;
Koman Catholic (England and Wales;, 347,094;
Paiochial Union, 77,723.
Church of Scotland, 621,975; Free Church of
Scotland, 404,818; Episcooal Church ot Scot
land, 53,404; Koinxn Catholic (Scotland), 29,
316. The expenditure for the year ending
March 31, 1807, lor expenses of administration
was 78,432; and for schools ot each denomi
nation Ohurch of England, 390.034; British
and Foreign School Society, 66,401; Weslevan,
32,135; Roman Catholic, 28,669; Parochial
Union. 120; Church of Scotland, 61,312; Free
Church of Scotland, 30,756; Episcopal Church
of Scotland, 4686, and Soman Catholic (Scot
land), 2747.
Dr. Pnny,
The London correspondent of the Paris Liberie
sye:
Dr. Posey, head of the Anglican Church party
which bears his name, has last abjured the
Anglican faith and been converted to Koman
Catholicism. This example has been immedi
ately followed by Dr. Hamilton, Bishop of Balis
bury, who has also gone over to Catholicism,
giving up an Income of 5000 a year. Tbe Siec e,
whicb reproduces the news, expresses tbe opi
nion that there is no probability of the latter
example being imitated.
Tbo Lord Uayor'a Bsaqntt,
On July 29 the Lord Mayor entertained her
Majesty's Ministers at a banquet at tbe Maniion
House. In response to the toast of "Her Ma
jesty's Ministers," the Right Hon. B. Disraeli, in
a long and elaborate speech, delended the home
and foreign policy ot tne Government, eipeciatly
with reference to those great questions ot na
tional interest which have recently occupied the
attention of Parliament. He asserted that every
movement organized by those branches of the
Government which directed the foreign relations
of the Empire, had been followed by success,
and contended that the policy of the Conserva
tive party was conducive to the permanent sta
bility of onr national institutions. Tuc company
comprised several of the Cabinet Ministers, and
tbe proceedings throughout were of an almost
enthusiastic character.
FRANCE.
Tbo New Cable Enterprise.
The Paris Monileur ol July 27, referring to the
projected cuble to connect France and the
United Btales, sajs:
England, having no bounds to her ambition,
attempted to solve the problem of the trau At
lantic cable. It is already known that our
neighbors have achieved a glorious success
through that perseverance which is one of the
distinctive features of their national character.
Every one has followed the phns.es of that
great work, and all the incidents ot the laying
of the Atlantic cables are popularly known in
Europe.
At the same time this success is generally re
garded only as a lucky venture, whereas it is the
lruit, on the contrary, ol patient study and
scientific labors and discoveries. That which
has been done once can be done again and has
been done several times already since England's
success. Tnanks to the progress made in manu
facturing, which renders an injury capable of
being repaired within a few hours; thanks to
the mechanical engines by which tbe cable is
paid out; thanks to the apparatus which indi
cates the precise spot where the cable has been
injured at tbe bottom of the sea, this adven
turous undertaking has changed its character,
and has entered into tha sphere of industrial
undertakings a delicate one still, but never
theless reasonable aud certain. Even though
an accident is still to be feared in the diillcult
process of paying out, the total loss ot the cable
is no longer possible.
In this great movement France has delayed
taking up the place which belongs to her. For
many years past a French transatlantic .cable
has been desired and asked for. In tbe vast net
work of submarine telegraphy, of which we have
just sketched a map, there is one void which
strikes the view.
Tbe Old and New continents do not commu
nlcate with one another by a direct route. De
spatches from Europe for New York must cross
the North Sea, pass through England and cros
tbe Irish bra beiore reaching the Atlantic. Tuke
a map and find the direct line from Europe to
America and your finger will trace tbe future
course of the French cable from Brest to St.
Piene Mlquelon and from St. Pierre to New
York.
The first section of tae cable will cover a dis
tance of 2Gb8 English nautical miles, the second
a distance of 950 miles. The luture cable will
tberelore measure about eight million metres.
At the present day English manufactures alone
are in a position to undertake such a task; but
ucb are the resources ol tbe constructors and
the expeilence of tbe engineers that if there be
no accident, the President of the United Biates
will be able to send the first telegram to his
Majesty, the Empcior of tbe French, on the I5th
of August, I860.
The Importance of this enterprise need no
demonstration. It suQices to remember that
the commerce between Europe and America is
estimated at fifteen millions daily, and that close
upon two thoutand towns keep up regular cor
respondence null America, It is duo to this
immense intercourse that the English cables
show receipts of thirty-two thousand lranc a
day.
The more one considers the consequences of
the enterprise in the future the more oue is
penetrated with its grandeur and importance.
Tbe Americans are studying at this moment
the project of a PacUlc cable, and tbe time is
not far distant when French commerce will
know every morning the quotations ot silk at
t-barehae, ot gold at Sau Francisco, and of
cotton at New Orleans.
Tbelajiugof tbe French transatlantic cable
will make a mark in history as one of the most
Important event of tfce Imperial reign.
Vbo Work of fa. Corps LagWltttr.
Writing irora Paris, July 18, the correspondent
of tbe ral Me. , Gatete sajs:
TheCorp", LtBlslatif, after a session ol inor
dinate length, terminated its tabors this evening
by voting the new loan. Alter haggling for
soro'd time about the amount, the committee
1jd the Government at length came to terms;
tbe Government wanted 440,000 000 francs, the
ccrorcifee woalJ at first only report lu favor of
4110' 0.000 traaca, bat at last consented to
429,000.000 francs, which sum Is now added
to the consolidated debU It Is of course
an open question whether these additional mil
lions will cover the deficits ot previous budgets,
and there is nothing to show that the Govern
ment in future will be able to pay Its way.
During tbe session tbe Corps Legislatif, besides
this State loan, has authorized a certain number
of departments and towns to bcrrow 40 000,000
francs, and, in fact, the method of paying debts
by means of loans appears to have passed into
the customs or the French. Since 1862 tbe
suns raided under various pretences amount to
8,(100.000,000.
VboMaxIcasi Bbarp Criticisms by
tha Hraaa.
La France of July 28 says: We cannot com
prehend what wretched pleasure the opposiilon
can take lu continually recurring to tT' Mexi
can expedition, in constantly giving utiennce
to the same complaints, and indefinitely caitiug
the same reproaches in the face of the Govern
n ent and the Chamber, the responsibility of
which body cannot In this cave be separated
from that of tbe leit ft action itself. Ha the
time not at length arrived to put an end to
thff e fruitless recriminations, and to speak of
this glorious fault concerning Mexico as his
tory will do? Here was no question of
policy; wbat was involved was tbe
very honor of the Government. The
latter was no longer charged with want
or foresight, but with want ot probity, and the
attempt was made to mix it up with tbe most
shametul speculations, M. Jules Favre, in giving
for t he fifth or sixth time the history of tbe
Jecker claims, in collecting and condensing the
most regrettable allegations iu order to repro
duce them impregnated with his irony and his
bitterness, in insinuating that the sword of
France bad been drawn in support of suspicious
monetary demands, M. Jules Favre. we Bay, fur
nished to M. liouher tbe opportunity ot grap
pling with tne calumny and of crushing it once
for all by the eloquent energy or his words and
ot bis conscience.
The lamps, the Avenir National, and the
Oazrlle de trance enter upon a discussion re
f pectine the legitimacy of tbe Jecker bonds, on
the various arrangements which have siuce
intervened on tbe labors of tbe Mexican Com
mission, etc. The Fresse thus commence its
observations We do not remember any sitting
wt.sted in vain talk so greatly as was that of
Saturday.
The Paris XTnivore says much the same thing:
This fitting may afford some specimens ot
speaking: but it scarcely elevates either the
national dignity or Parliamentary glory.
Tbo Vrtbvlatlona ot "L,a Ltatitai,"
Tbe Paris correspondent of the London A'ews,
writing on the 27ih of July, reports tbe progress
ot the struggle between the Lanlerne newspaper
and the Government thus: M. Henri Rocbetort
has adopted M. Emile Ollivier's advice, and
determined to try conclusions with the Gov
ernment in a conrt ot law as to his liability to
print the oppressively long communique which
il. Pinard has perversely served htm with. This
determination is not announced in the
rew number of the Lanterne, which
merely sajs the subject Is under con
sideration, but in a fetter to the papers.
Tbe law glrea a prlvata Indlrldual tbe right
to insist upon the insertion of a reply to any
article in which bis name may be mentioned if
not more than double the length of the article
itself. No limit is laid down as to the leogth of
a government communique, but M. Rochetorl
submits that tbe courts must find one unless
tbey would condemn tho law itself as against
reason aud impossible of execution. His little
led covered weekly publication contains sixty
pages. The Minister of tbe Interior thinks it a
good joke to ak him to insert a communique
which would till 45 of those pages. That is
simply confiscation. The communique consists
ot a full report from the Moniteur ot a debate in
the Senate upon a petition complaining of M.
Saudou's confinement in a mad-house. It
M. Rocbefort is bound to submit to this he sees
no reason why next Saturday the Minister should
not send him tbe "Memorial de Sainte Uelene,"
in six volumes, by way ol a communique in an
swer to three lines about Napoleon I. That
might be followed the week after by the "His
tory of the Consulate and the Empire," in
twenty-two volumes. M. Rochefort calculates
that in stamps, paper, printing, etc.. it would
cost him 7000f. to publish M. Pinard'e commu
nique. He naturally prefers running the risk of
incurring tbe maximum fine of lOOOf. tor refus
kg the insertion, and it Is the Minister's fault
that, by a reductio ad absurdum, it fs shown to
be seven times more profitable to set at defiance
an Imperial law than to obey it.
AUSTRIA.
Baroa Vom Bawat'a Raipoaaato tbo Papal
Allocution.
The text of Baron Beusi's reply to the Papal
allocution is dated Vienna, July 3, and is ad
dressed to Baton von Meysenberg. The follow
lng is a full translation:
1 have received witii your reports of the 22d
and 23d June the text ot the allocution delivered
by the Holy Father in the consistory of the
22d. I have already made known to your Ex
cellency, by telegraph, the unfortunate impres
elon.whlch that manifestation has produced here.
Tbe explanations given iu your despatches
of tho 23d could not mitigate the effect of
the Holy Father's words. We assuredly
appreciate tbe friendly consideration evinced
tor the person ot the Emperor, and his
Majesty is certainly not insensible to that mark
of uelerence. We believe, as your Excellency
affirn s, that the Pontifical allocution, comoarcd
with many other documents of the same nature
emanated from the Holy See, does really bear
the stamp of a certain tendency to temper ex
pression as much as the ooint ot view of the
Church peimits. It is none tbe less obvious that
tbe language his Holiuess u?es towards tbe Im
perial Government and the new institutions of
Aur tria, is of a severity of which we couslder we
hac come right to complain. 1 do not wish, on
the present occasion, to enter into a controversy
little In accordance with my sentiments of re
f pect for the Holy 8ce and my desire lor con
ciliation. I nevertheless cannot lefrain from a
lew observations which I beg your Excellency
to bring to the notice of tbe Court of ttocno.
We cannot, in the first place, admit tbe obliga
tion which imposes on the Holy t-'ee the neces
sity of following cerium precedents, and of
adopting towards Austria the same proceedings
as towards other countries of which the Holy
See ha had to complain. Is it possible, in fact,
to draw auy comparison t Have we attacked ibe
territory or the properly of the church? Have
we oppressed the Catholic leliglou and its min
isters? Putting aside examples wbich do not
bear on the case, we may, I think, boldly affirm
tbnt there is no country in Europe where the
Catholic Church has privileged a position as in
Austria, notwithstanding the laws ot M'iy
26. This circumstauce ought to have been
taken into account bpfore the imperial
Government was coufounded in the
same reprobation with other governments which
were in opposition to the Church and the
Catholic religion In a different way. We cm
understand tbat the Holy Father may have felt
it to be indispensable to tbe protest ugtiust the
laws which modify the situation created by tbe
Concordat of 1855. We fully expected a pro
ceeding of this kind, and we might have
accepted it silently even if its form were less
concilia ory than we permitted ourselves to
hope. But what we cannot paas over without
objection Is the condemnation hurled against
the fundamental laws on which tbe new institu
tions of tne empire are based. These laws
weie not tbe subject of dispute, aud by
attacking them as it has, the Holy Bee deeply
wounds tbe national feeling, and gives to
tbe present difference a meaning that Is very
much to be regretted even in (he interest ol the
church. Instead ot simply contesting th's or
that application of the principles which form
the bases of the present government of Austria,
and wbtcli ate the fruit of the happy accord be
twetn the peoples of tbe empire and tbeir sove
reign, it is the principles themselves tbat are
condemned. The Holy See thus extends Its
representation to objects which we can by no
means admit to be within its aatbority. It en
venoms a question which already produced only
too much excitement, by directing men's minds
to matters where political will be associated
with rtliplous passions, finally by condemning
laws which include tbeprlnclplo of the liberty of
tbe church, and thus offering It compensattou for
tbe privileges it lores, it renders more difficult a
conciliatory attitude ot the Government. It
may not be use ess to remark here tbat these
laws ei ret sly gunrantee to tbe Church the pro
perty of the wealth it possesses in Austria.
This stipulation proves that tbe laws In ques
tion are not hostile to the Church since they
maintain to her thoe rights of which she has
been deprived In so many countries. It is not
for me to judge In wbat measure tbls last con
sideration ought to miiigate the judgment of
the court of Rjme. What I hive not ashador
ot doubt Is, that tbe people of Austria will find
coosolHtion in remembering that more than oue
very Catholic nation Is subject to legal ar
rangements of the same kind which yet live
In peace with the Church, and that there is
(sp-cially oue great and powertul empire in
Europe whose tendencies towards progress and
liberty have been always allied with very de
cided a'tachment to the Catholic tattb, and
whicb, though governed by laws quite abomi
nable, has, up to tne latest moment, been
blessed with Indulgent the sympalhiesof the Holy
fcee. My despatch of the 17th June last anti
cipated tbe bad consequences whica allocution
would produce it it was not worded in very
moderate language. I regret extremely that
the Conrt of Rome did not pay more at
tention to these anticipations. Tbey have been
completely realized. I do not think tbe Catho
lic population of tbe empire have more zeal
now than they had before for the interests of
tbeir religion. On the contrary, we see an in
crease of ardor in the attacks directed against
tbe Church, tbe clergy, and the Pope. Tnis
hostility would bave been confined withia the
narrowest limits, and would .have been easily
appeased if the special question affected by the
law s of May 25. had alone been treated of In the
Papal allocution.
Before concluding, I must here also express
the painful surprise which tbe appeal addressed
to tbe Hungarian Bishops in the closing sen
tences of tbe allocution has produced. It
seems to me that Rome ought to be thankful
tor the perfect tact and reserve with which
these delicate matters have been hitherto
treated in Hungary. It would be unde
sirable in every point of view to raise new
difference, and thereby to augment the em
barrassments which alreidy exist. Bat it is
especially in the very interest of the Court of
Rome tbat it appears to us Inopportune to
arouce tbe national susceptibility of the Hun
garians. The appearance of foreign pressure
would produce in tbat nation results the oppo
site to those which the Holy Bee desires, and
we should see a storm raised acralnst tbe legi
timate Influence ot the Court of Rome similar to
that which is raging on this side of the
Leit ha.
These are the observations suggested to us by
a perusal of the Pontifical allocution. Lay
tbt-m betore his eminence, the Cardinal Pecre
tory of State. We shall none the less persevere
in the way we have begun. Whilst we shall
continue to maintain intact the ritibta of tha
rtate nnl rrsptct lor tbe laws, we shall allow
the Church to enjoy In peace the liberties which
our laws secure to her; and we shall endeavor
to observe, in the mutual relations between
Church and State, a spirit of conciliation aud
equity which I hope will be reciprocal.
lour Excellency will be pleaied to make
yourself the faithful organ of these sentiments,
and in doing so you will only conform to the
views of the Emperor, our august master.

CRIME.
Tcrrlblo Cruelty aid Murder ost Sblpa
board.
One of the most remarkable cases of era el ty
on record is under investigation by United States
Commissioner Osborn, ot New York. The ac
cused are Henry Robinson and John Burnett,
captain and first male of the packet snip Colum
bia, pljit? between New York and Liverpool,
and tbe crime is alleged to have been committed
last December.
Levi Kohn, passenger's cook on board the Co
lumbia, testifies tbat the Columbia left Liver
pool on tbe 27th of November last, and arrived
iu New York ou the 9th of February. The day
after the vessel sailed witness saw a young
sailor, named Henry Gunther, kicked iu
tbe bock by Alexander Burns, another Bailor,
the first imate telling the latter to "Give it
to the robber:" witness repeatedly saw Gun
ther kicked by Burns and a sailor called
"Johnny," in the presence of the Caotaln an 1
officers; one day Burns, in the presence of the
first mate, told one ot the sailors to strike Gun
theronthe head with a belaying pin, and tbe
latter was beaten until the blood flowed from
his nose and face; in the latter part of Decem
ber Gunther was deprived of his senses by rea
son ot the Inhuman treatment he received, and
while in that state he attempted to cut his
threat. A plaster was put upon the wound, and
when he had partly recovered he went on deck.
Tbe mate asked him if he wanted to kill himself,
why he did not jump overboard. Guuther made
no reply to the taunts of the mate, when the
latter seized a large piece of wood and beat
Gunther over the bead and face in a shocking
manner, breaking his nose. Gunther died in a
short time, from 'the effect of the brutal treat
ment he bad received.
Tbe testimony of Kohn was corroborated by
tbat of several other witnesses.
Deputy Ur.ited States Marshals Dwlre and
McCoy arrested Captain Morrison and brought
him beiore tbe Commissioner. He denied all
knowledge of the alleged crime, and said that
Guntber was subject to epileptic fits, aad doubt
less died from tbe effects ot one.
As the captain is not nearly so deeply crimi
nated as the first mate, aud as he was suffering
greatly from tbe effects of ship fever, be was
allowed to go, on his own recognizance, until
Monday next at 12 M., by which time the first
mate, whose whereabouts Is known, will un
