A Sensation Among the Engliah No bilityThe Prince of Wales Scan- . dal How He Spends His Days, His Money, and Ekes Out a Lordly , Living His Com panionsThe Princess Forlorn. The London correspondent of the Now York lit raid, on ihe 4th Inst., penned the following choice bit of ecan. mag. There have been so many reports to the same Intent and purpose as thii, that there arc but few who do not consider them truthful: As you are no' doubt aware from report, the heir to the British throne la, as alleged, neither given to observe the seventh commandment, nor does he attempt to hide his shortcomings in that respect. J I is companion and Ultimate fricuils are all yountf, unmarried noblemen, "Who are no torious for the immoral lives they lead, and who openly boast of the conquests they achieve and the female companions they patronize The Prince, although married to one of the most charming women in Europe, has, it is reported everywhere, almost broken his wire's heart by his infidelities, nnd very much of her loiitf-contiuucd Illness niaybo attributed to this source of an noyance. Curious to Fay, his Royal Highness, although by no ineons better than most youujr men of his years, never became opeu'y immoral until after he married. Among the ladles first attached to the household of the Princess of Wales when she came to England was one of handsomest women, on a very large scale, that was ever seen at this English Court. This lady had already been "talked about," and her name was more or less mixed up with that of three or four well-knowu personages, but there was nothing that could bo actually proved and nothing positively known agaiust her. How ever, soon after she ioined the Princess' house- f ' 1 hold she was evidently on fur better terms with the husband than with the wife, aud the flirta tion I give it tkc mildest possible name between her and the newly-married Prince was .the talk of nil London. The (jucon, Of course, heard of the scandal, and ascertaining that it was but too true, she had an interview with her eon, which was not a pleasant one for either party. To make a long story short, the Duchess had to leave the following of the Princess, but the intimacy with the Prince continued, as i generally behoved, as before, and was the source of much unhappi neee to the wife of the future King of England. But "friendships" again the mildest possible word of this kind seldom remain long iu the same groove. Her Grace for she is a duchess began to 6how a great liking for a marquis, son of a mighty duke, and himself one of the Minis ters of England. The Prince of Wales did not like this. He romonstratcd; the lady would not give in, and so a regular quarrel took placo between them which has never yet been made up, the smiles of the Duchess being still lavished upon the Marquis. But the Prince was not a bit a better child after he had severed from her Grace; on the contrary, ho was very much worse; for he took to visiting actresses and to spending money upon them, and whero he had formerly ono ho had now three or four lady acquaintances. About the time I write of some two years ago a famous French actress (the lady who puts or ought to put all modest women to the blush by her acting and the lasci vious gestures aud looks she introduces) came to London, and was, of course, surrounded by half a dozen wealthy lovers, all of whom spent fortunes upon her, and all of whom were upon the same footing of inti macy. Lord C , the same person who had the row with Mr. Granville Murray, used to drive her about openly In the park, she. sitting on the box of hU four-in-hand drag, and jlie meeting in the crowd of fashionables that filled the ride his mother, sisters, relatives, aud other ladies. Would you tolerate such a state of things in New York? 1 think not. Let a man pin if he likes, but let him not parade that sin on the most public part of the fashionable drive of London, with a woman of that kind on the Beat by his side. But what if I tell you that among the men that crowded after tills foreign actress was his Royal Highness Albert Edward, Prince of Wales, eldest son of the Queen of England and heir to the crown of these realms ? Of course the triumph of the lady was great. It is true she is nearly, if not quite, thirty years older than, the Prince, but this seems to make the infatuation all the greater. In due time Mademoiselle left Loudon, but this did uot break off the intimacy, for whenever the Prince could visit Paris or the actress came to London it wad renewed. There was only oue drawback to the whole affair. For a man iu his position the Prince of Wales is not only far from rich, but ho is very much in debt. To do him justice ho is not par simonious, and although the Queen Inn made him, as it were, do the honors of London for some years past, she has never increased his allowance by a live-pound note. Now Mademoi selle, like all women of her peculiar tastes, is extravagant in th extreme, and would eat up the national revenue of the United States iu jewels alone, if any one could be found fool enough to give her the same. As it is she has diamonds to" tho value of 4160,000 ( 100,000), that have been given her by various and wealthy lovers, tho Emperor of" Kussia alouo having given her in ono case a necklace, ear-rings, and bracelets worth $1000. Hut to return to my talo. The other day the Prince of Wales, by desire of the doctors, took his wife to the Springs at Wildbad, in Germany, for the sake of her health, which is still very indifferent. Ho re mained a short time with her, and then returned to London, leaving her with her suite at Wild bad. Of course, he passed through Paris; of course he remained some days in that very wicked but very pleasant city, and of course ho went to see Mademoiselle. Somehow or other it happened that this Interesting actress was greatly in want of money as actresses generally are, at least actresses of her stamp and re quested his Roval Highness to -'lend" her a triflo of aM.OOOf. (4.10,000 or $50,000). The Prince had not the money, but was in duced to sign a note or bill for tho amount, pay able a couple of weeks after date. Iu London his Royal Iliglmoss' "paper" would have been found very diillcult indeed, if not impossible, to discount, but iu Paris there are still financial agents who put faith in princes. At any rato the bill wob discounted, and did find its way la due time to London, where it was presented for payment at Coutts' Bank. Tho document not being signed by the Comptroller of the Prince's Household, had an aspect of Irregularity about it that the bankers did not like, and they hesitated before paying it. The Prince was abroad again, aud could not bo referred to. and tho story somehow got to tho ears of his royal mother. And then was there not what is vul garly called a "row." Tho monev was paid, in order to avoid scandal, but her Majesty who, although In retirement, knows as well as any body in England what Is going on gave her eldest son what old women call "a bit of her mind" upon the wholo transaction, and told him pretty plainly what she thought about married men. with families of their own, and very much in debt, making presents of .'0,000 to women of whom the 1cm eiild the better. "Lu Uo,;. il-lULl to Ixrl. i.ud Uij, Us 1; U their natty e to, m;'l)wWr Wtu' fino old hymn; and I really believe that the same excuse must bo modo for any one boTn of the house of Hanover. The men at any rate of that family have Vatnour dit N'au sex to such a degree, that we can only say of them that "it is their nature to." Not one, but fifty are the scandals in this respect that crop up respecting tho Prince of Wales, on account of his course of life in Lon don. His brother, the Duke of Edinburgh, Is, It Is generally hclicved, quite as bad. if nt worse; but being an unmarried man, the sin is not so great. And the same is said of Prince Arthur, the young Prince now in Canada, thongh in very much less degree. The Prince, it is true, is not the brutal, coarse sensual! it that. George I and George II were, nor is he the "betrayer of women" that George IV was, but that he is much and even shamelessly given to the follow ing of light women there can bo no doubt; and that all his companions are unmarried noble men, leading the most openly shameless lives. Is patent to every one living in Lohdon, or even in England. The effect of his Royal Highness' example Is gradually but very surely telling upon the morals o"f the higher and middle classes of the land. Half a dozen years ago sins against the seventh commandment, even if tho sinner was an unmarried man, were forbidden topics in all dec ent society, aim mttcrly tabooed wherever ladies wen) present. But it is, I am sorry to say, far otherwise now. We arc fast getting as had, nay, even worse, than in France. In that country young and unmarried women, at any rate, arc supposed to be ignorant of : much of tho sin that is going on around them, at least sins of a certain kind; but in England you hear girls of eighteen or twenty talking as coolly about tho amours of the Earl of This or Lord George That as tliu.v might respecting a perfectly lawful llirtatiou; and, what is worse still, the crime of adultery is now so very common, and talked so opeuly about, that people begin to loso their horror of the offense, lu short, as I heard an American gentleman say uot hmg ogo (he had formerly resided several years iu England, but had been absent from the country for the last eight or nine years), the morals of England in 1800 and in 18i') lire ubout as different as it is possible to imagine. FATHER HYACIXTIIE. An Iiiiportnm Letter to Mm from his .Suuorlor, I.roernl of the Barefooted Carmelite fit Home. The French Journals publish the following Im portant letter to Father llyuciiitho from his Supe rior, tho (Jeneral of the Barefooted Carmelites at Home. The Hrst of these letters, dated July ii, appears to have determined the publication of Father ilyuciuthe's letter of September 'it): ltOMK, July vt, lh(J9. My Very Reverend Father Hyacluthc: 1 have received your letter of theuth instant, and in a short time after the speech which you delivered at the Peace League. 1 have not, hap pily, found in that speech the heterodox phrase attri buted to you. It must be said, However, tnat It con tains some vatrue propositions, admitting of unfor tunate interpretations, and thiit such a speech docs j uot come wen irom a iiiouk, i ue iiaoic or tue Car melite Was certainly there no louder m its place. ly reverend father aud ' dcur irieud, you know the great interest I have always taken iu you. From the commencement of your sermons ut Notre Dame tie Paris, I nave earnestly exhorted you not to identify yourself with questions iu dispute among Catholics, and oj which all were not agreed. Jtcrnuse, from. I he mo ment you attach yourself ostensibly to one side your ministry became more or less unfruitful with the other. Now, it is potent that you have made no ac count of the intimation ol your father and superior, as last year you wrote a letter to a club In Paris in which you freely disclosed your opinions iu favor of a party, liavinir little .wisdom, and in opposition with the seiitnuontd of the Holy Father, the episcopaey, and tho clergy In general. 1 was alarmed, us were also the French clergy. I wrote to you immediately to enable you to sue the false path you had entered on, in order to stop you. But in vain, for some mouths al ter you authorized from yourscli a periodical review in Genoa to pnbllsh another letter, that has been the caiiBe of so much vexation to you and me. Lastly, during your last sojourn at Home I made you serious observations and evt'U rather strong reproaches on the false posi tion you were placen iu, on account of your lmpru- uenee,- out you nun scarcely arriveu at I'u- is, when you published, under your own signature, a Utter deplored by all, eveu by your friends. Lately your presence and speech at the Peace League have caused as great scandal in Catholic F.uropo as happened about six years ago, on the occasion of your speech ut a meet iijr in Paris. You have, beyond doubt, given some reason for such recriminations by some bold, obscure, aud impru dent phruses. I have done all that I could up to the present to defend nnd save you. To-day 1 must think of the luteiests and honor of our holy order, which, un known to yourself, you compromise. You writ me from Paris, Nov. in, 1H: "I avoid mixing the Paris Convent and the order of Mount Carmel with these matters. " Let me say to you, my dear father, that this is an illusion. You are a monK, and bound to your superiors by solemn vows. We have to answer for you before Uod arid man, and consequently have to take the same mea sures m your regards as in that of other monks, when your conduct is prejudicial to your soul aud cur order. Already, in France, Belgium, ond even here, some of the bishops, clergy, and faithful are blaming tho euperiois of our order for not taking certain mea sures in your regard, and It Is concluded that there is no authority in our congregation, or that It shares in your opinions and course of action. 1 do not cer tainly regret the course I have followed, up to the present, iu regard to you, but matters are arrived ut such a pwint that 1 would compromise my conscience aud the entire order if 1 do not take more eitloaoious measures in this matter then I have done in thepst. Consider, therefore, dear and reverend father, that you are a monk, that you have made solemn vows, and that by the vow of obudleace you are oouud to vour superiors by a lien as strong us that which bliids the ordinary priest to his bishop. I can, therefore, no longer tolerate your continuing to compromise the entire order by your speeches or writings, no more mini i can loierme our uoiy namt uppeai iug at meetings that are not in harmony with our profession as barefooted Carmelites. There fore, lu the interest of your soul and of our holy order, 1 order you formally, by this presont, not iii the future to print any letters or speeches ; to speak outside the churches; to be present at the Chambers; to take no part In the Peace League, or any other meeting whleli ias not u exclusively Catholic and religious object, 1 hope you will obey With docility and even with love. Now, let me speak to you with an open heart, as a father to his sou. I see you entered on an extremely dangerous path, which, despite your present inten tions, may conduct you to where to-day you may de plore to arrive. Arrest yourself, then, my dear Hon; hear the voice of your father and friend, who speaks to you with a heart broken with sorrow. With this view youwould do wall to retire to one of the convents in the Province of Avignon, there to repose yourself, aud perform the retreat which 1 dispensed you from last year on account of your duties. Meditate iu solitude oh the great truths of re'igion, not to preach them, but for the profit of your soul. Ask light from heaven, but with a contrite ond humble heirt. Ad dress jourself to the Holy Virgin, to our father Saint Joseph, and to our seraplile mother r-alut Theresa. A father can well aduresi these words to his sou, although he be a great orator. It Is a very serious question for you, and for us all. I pray to the Saviour that he may deign to accord. you his light and grace. 1 recommend myself to your prayers, aud give you my benediction, and I am your very humble seivunt, Va. DOMtNiqrjK i)E Sunt Joseph, Superior-Ueuoral. -THE "VIXMCATOK." Another Toller Fired Into the Rank of tho J)omocrallu Leaden. The Altoona V imluuttrr, whose ante-eloction edito rial gave such a surprising ami decided set back to Uemocratio enthusiasm in our State, now comes out asserting the fulfilment of all its pred ctlons, and places the onus or a!! the blume and condemnation on the shoulders of tho party leaders iu this State. After declaring that defeat resulted from the mis management lu Philadelphia, the Viuilicttvr de clares: . Pa.ek.er I'aratiltes. Jadgo Packer was surrounded by a horde of un scrupulous political desperadoes, whose only desire was to fill their own pockets at his expense, aud then biiBely betray the man who had couilded in their honor.

They secured hi coiiudence they kept lit HUB llMjuds ) iiuut nun .uaUuvJ him, and Viivfl ucftxtv'4 him. If we coiflpiue the returns of that, portion of the State which was under the control of Mr. Mutchler with that which was nnder the supervision of the sub-chairmen, It will le sea that be was Incompetent to fultll the duties of the position, lie was an olwcure man, with no ability and no enerry, and he accomplished nothing. In a word, the whole campaign was a blunder and a fraud, and the result was accordingly. "A Sneeeimlon of Frightful Illiindera." But the defeat of Asa Packer would lie of smalt moment if It did not involve tho detent of those sacred doctrines for which the Democracy has boon contending ever since the foundation of tho (Govern ment. And it Is because of this that we deplori the mismanagement which led to our defeat. Because of this, we denounce the would-be leaders who have piloted the bark upon the rocks. If this last, most perilous overthrow of Democracy shall have the effect of Inspiring our party with more wisdom, wo shall never regret It. For the last eight years onr whole history has been a succession ol frightful blunders, and nothing but the undying vitality of our principles could have saved the party from n.xttn'5 tlon. Let it be nuderstood that a new leaf must be turned If we wonld hone for victory In the future. The noblest principles in the hands of incompetent nr corrupt individuals cannot receive popular ap proval, lie who asplre9 to direct a great political contest should have brains enough to organize tho campaign and bravery sutllclent to lead the battle.

Casting our back upon the rrviuniui cowanU who live In the sombre sepulchre of a dead past, we are with the Voting and Progressive Democrats of the busy present.

Q E A It Y. AVIint Will he Do with the Attorucv-Gcocrn.1? The Pittsburg Conuiurcial on Saturday morn ing furnished its readers with the following editorial: Wo have epoken of the position of perfect in dependence in which the election of Tuesday last places Governor Geary. We hope, we believe, that he will maintain this elevated position. Puthe will need .a force of character and power of will eajiable of great things lo withstand tho pressure soon to be exerted upon him. Indeed the attack has already commenced. The faction which most insidiously fought the Governor for nomination is displeased with his Attorney-General, and demand that ho be kicked out. Simon t'umcron says he must go that there must be no standing on the order of his going, but Ihut he must go at once. Philadel phia, it is true, appears to have sustained the Attorney-General in tho war made on him, by (Jovode nominally, by a faction really. No mat ter. The Attorney-General himself desires to retire at the end of his term next January, we have been informed, and docs not expect or wish to remain lu oilice longer. No matter. Cameron says he must go now. Wo say to Governor Geary, do tho bidding of your would be master, and do it quickly, or demonstrate to the great party which has just again honored yon with its confidence, that you have no mas ter. Our opinion is that tho Hon. 1$. F. Brewster, after his retirement from official life, could profitably for the party, if not for himself write and publish the political biography of his late friend the friend of twenty years but now, it seems, his savage foe. We think Brewster well qualified for this work, and, in the lan guage of Horace Greeley, "it would bo mighty interesting reading." Let's have it, Brewster. UXMASKED. How the XewtVork Itinff iVIade tliclr Millions 1 ele ano Cnplui-eU by the Clique The N. Y. Sun publishes this inornln the follow ing: on the 24th ultimo, the day when the gold panic culminated, and the gold clique retired with only partial success, General Butterlleld learned that somewhere in New York or Washington, or from some intermediate point, the telegraph wires were leaking news which the Wall street gold aud stock combinations were using to their exclusive advan tage. Central Dutterlicld was seated at his little tablo In tho Assistant Treasu rer's room of the Treasury building during the most eventful hours of that eventful panic day; around him, in painful suspense, were gathered nearly a score of Wall street rulers, the most of whom expected, yet did not hope for, the fatal despatch from Secretary Boutwell to the As sistant Treasurer directing him to sell gold. Two preliminary despatches had passed over the wires one by one company's line, the other over a different route at 10-30 A. M. These were an Inquiry from the (Secretary ou the situation, and Ueueral llutter lield's reply. Immediately afterwards one partner from each of ceveral of the heaviest operating houses, or a repre senting person from each of them, was attending the voluntary meeting in that southwestern room of the Treasury building. When the fatal despatch did come, and while the ragged bearer of it was still before General Dutterfleld's table, one of the heaviest street operators entered the door with the announce ment that gold was selling down to Vii. It had been vibrating between 100 and l4 for the previous ten minutes. While the news of the depressed price was being spoken, (General Butterlleld openud the telegram and read It aloud. The order to sell four millions of gold was known on Wall street ten to twenty-five minutes before General Butterlleld saw he contents of the order. The gold clique only knew of Its receipt, and the kings among them made no delay in getting into Hit re quarters, after disposing first of many millions of their load. It has been ascertained that the Frank lin Telegraph Co. 'a wires were tapped, cither outside of the city, or from somo roof-tup inside the city, and that the news was used to the advantage of cer tain operators. When tho news reuclitd the Frank lin oilice here, an expert operator, accustomed to the sounds of that Instrument, wrote the despatch us fast as delivered, and when done sent It to tiie headquarters of the ring. The ssiue thing was re peated last week on the occasion of (ieneral Butter lield's selling the fl,0o,(.oo of gold at tho stated weekly sale. This time it availed them nothing, for the Assistant Treasurer referred all Ihe proposals to Secretary Uoutwell for decision. lie suggested a cipher system to the Xecretary on the 27th of Sep tember, which was approved, niid a cipher Is to be employed hereafter hi ull trivial as well as In ull im portant communications by telegraph. Tho last tapping was not done by the great gold-pool com bination, as they hud uo use for any such infor mation. Tho Panic Not Yet Ended. The N. Y. JViM closes a long article exposing the operations of this same gold clique, as follows: Inclosing we may sately state that tho panic Is not over; that Its effects are reaching out turthor and further. There are railroad stocks involved, owners of which may do well to stand from uudor. There are dividends soon duo on stock and scrip, which will lag in arrears for payment. Hut the further the investigation proceeds the more fully and conclusively will it be demonstrated that all the weak charges and assertions of the complicity of any (ioveiriment official with the gold riug were wholly, supremely false and malicious. legal iuri3Li,iaii;Tcn.

This action was brought for an alleged breach of an agreement, by which tho defend ants stipulated with the plaintiff to pay 9 1 per cord for wood cut from plaintiff's land, nnd pnarantced to keep not less than fifty wood choppers at work on said land. This tho plain tiff alleges the defendant liavo not done, and hence tho suit. The damages arc laid at 902,500. The testimony being closed on behalf of the plaintiff, Mr. R. H. Lloyd, as attorney for the defendant, placed Ah Hund upon tho stand. Messrs. White and Heath, attorneys for the plaintiff, objected to Ah Hund giving tot;tirnonj They urged that the statutes 'of the State ex cluded Chinamen from giving testimony agaiust a citizen. Mr. C. H. Lloyd, who was evidently prepared for the objection, replied at great length. He quoted first section 11 of tho first article of the declaration of rights contained iu the Constitution of the Slate of California, which provides "that all laws of a general nature shall have a, uniform operation." Mr. Lloyd contended ' that the laws giving residents the right to defend sulu founded upon wrongful claims were general in their nature. Every rcsident.whcthcr Mongalian or Caucasian, was liable to be sued, aud was entitled to de fend such suits. The law was therefore ''gen eral," and being so, must, according to the law of the State, be "uniform" In its operation. Tliea he quoted the seventeenth section of the said fir6t article of the Constitution of California, which provides "that foreigners who are or who may hereafter become bona fide residents of this State, shall enjoy tho same rights in respect to the possession, enjoyment, and Inheritance of property ns native-born citizens." Ho contended that foreigners could not be 6aid to enjoy the same rights iu respect to the "possession" of property unless they could testify in regard to such possession in a court of law. Of what value could property in money or land bo if any citizen were entitled to come and swear away the "right to possession" of it without being answered by the person who owued the property, and who alone, perhaps, could answer on the point? He contended that if the State laws were read in all their fullness' and scope, they conferred upon Chinamen the right to pro tect their'persons and their property by giving evidence in courts of law. But he relied mainly upon the Fourteenth Constitutional amendment, which declares that "no State shall deprive any person of life, liberty, or property without duo process of law, nor deny any person within Its jurisdiction the equal protection of tho law." If, said Mr. Lbayd, a man comes and swears that the property you possess docs not belong to you. it will not 6tirely be contended that you had "equal protection under tho law," unless you arc allowed to swear that it docs belong to you. On that point he confidently rested his case. Judge Sawver said he had no doubt that the State law took away from Chinauicu the right to testify in such cases as this, but it was equally clear that the fourteenth Constitutional amend ment, which overrides all State laws, confers the right to testify in protection of his life or his property. He was aware that the Police Judge had decided otherwise; but that was a matter in which that Judge had to decide for himself, aud in no wine concerned his (Judge Sawyer's) opinion. He admitted that a different opinion might be held as conscientiously as ho claimed to hold his. Still he believed the Judge to bo mistaken. Was It to be argued that if two Chi namen were walking along, and a white man comes up and slays oue of the Chinamen, that tho other is to be precluded from giving his testimony? If he were so precluded, how could it be argued that all had "equal protection" of the law? If a man swears an unfounded claim against your property, the only way you cau protect the property is by swearing that the claim is unfounded. If you are not allowed to do that, how can it be said that you have the "equal protection of the law," which the Consti tution declares is the right of all men? Tho Judge accordingly ordered the examina tion of Ah Hund to be proceeded with, and at the close of his testimony the turther hearlqg of the case was adjourned until this morning. FINANCE Alii COJI.TIEKCE. Omci or xhs ktsntno Trlsohapb,! Uonday, Oct. 18, lbtt. I The local Money market opened this morning without atrordlng the least sign of relief from thy stringency which constituted its prominent feature during the whole of the past week. In this respect the contrast between the market here and in New York is perfect. In the latter city the banks went begging, towards the close of business on Saturday, for employment for large balances, aud were glad to loan them over the Sunday at a nominal 8 per cent. On the same day, In our city, money readily ob tained 7 per cent, on the pet securities of tho market,, and there la no good reason to expect any let up In 1 be present scale of rates adopted by lenders. Ou tlie contrary, It is thought tbat tliejusuul demand to aid the cotton movement of the South has only just liegun, and that for some weeks to come a Heavy draught will be made upon our market in the cotton interest. Gold Is more active this morning, and the price la less steady. Sales at the opening, VM, and at noon at 1:10 v. There is little Investment and no speculative de mand for Government securities to-uay, aud prices are barely sustained.
