Amll the hurry and crowd of a national and enthu
iMtlo gathering, let us attempt to reproduce the
eene lor the benefit of Interested parties who can
lot be present St. Louis, the aspiring city of the
i. - wRii-chosen Dlace for meeting. The Bap-
tits there are nunierpus and active In Sunday School
work, and, considering the V-ole nation, it surely
Has jnsi claims m ucuiiBiiijr. . i
A very cordial welcome issued by the local .
committee in September last, and from all directions
response came accepting the proffered hospitality.
Be first Instalment of delegates began to arrive last
week, and at the time of opening the session, 2
o'clock this afternoon, the visitors were numbered
by hundreds; and, npon a careful examination, re
presentatives were found from twenty-six States,
many of these being men of acknowledged promi
nence In Sunday School work.
The Second Baptist Church, a spacious edifice,
and one centrally located, was the place of meeting.
It was decorated only by a motto wrought in ever
greens, "One in Christ Jesus.1' All incidental ar
rangements were of the most complete sort, reilect
ing much credit on the eftlclent management of the
local committee, of which K. D. Jones, Esq., was
chairman.
An opening devotional meeting was held in tho
morning, the well-known Bible-class teacher, Wm.
Lawrence, of Chlcugo, being its leader. This was a
well-attended and truly devotional meeting, giving a
tone to the minds and hearts of all present which
must go far toward securing a profitable convention.
At the session In tho afternoon the chair was
taken hy William Phelps, Esq., of New York, Presi
dent of the American Baptist Publication Society.
The welcome on behalf of St. Louis was extended by
lion. Nathan Cole, Mayor of the city, wlio has been
a Sunday School worker for years, and who is an
efllclent member of tho Second Baptist Church.
Itev. James E. Welsh, known In these parts us
"father Welsh," and one of the pioneers in Western
Sunday School work, then gave a hearty greeting to
the assembly on behalf of the region west of the
Mississippi. Rev. Shepherd Wells, on behalf of the
Missouri State Sunday School, then oil'ered the greet
ing of that body. All these addresses were brief,
pointed, and full of earnest and fervid piety.
Responses were made by the Chairman of the
meeting and by Kev. CJeorgo A. Peltz, of Pennsyl
vania, chairman of the general committee of ar
rangements. The exercises of welcome, which too
often prove a bore, were far from being so in this
case. All the strangers present felt that they were
truly welcome, and thus much was contributed lo
the success of the work.
"(Jar Alms" was the topic next discussed, first by
Kev. C. II. Ryland, of Virginia, looking specially at
the alms of this gathering. These were clearly
stated, and were truly religious and Baptistic too.
Rev. F. M. Ellis, of Kansas, then discussed our
Rims as Sunday-school workers, which were summed
op as to make children Christians anil to make
Christians Baptists.
In the evening the chief feature was the sermon,
by Rev. George Dana Boardman, D. P., of Philadel
phia, upon the early conversion of children. Mr.
Boardman'8well-known reputation was fully sus
tained by this effort, and we will forward a full copy
Of the sermon for the use of your paper.
The day's exercises were In all respects of the
most cheering sort. Enthusiasm, good-will, and
brotherly love prevailed upon all sides, and the
unanimous conclusion of all present was that an
auspicious opening for the convention had been
made. P.

Academy of DewlKu.
This fashionable resort was opened on Wednesday
evening. It would be too much to say that many
lovers of art were there. A great ninny fashionable
people were, and there was a good deal of gabbling
about pre-Kaphaelit!sm, 61. Ruskln, and other pretty
abstrusities that few present knew much about.
The newest fashions, the most cosily dresses, the
raciest gostip, the most spotless linen, and jewelry of
the moBt darkling sparkle all were there. Bur, the
art element was absent. I sat for several hours on
one of the seats admiring the influx und eillux of
silk and sailn, jewelry and rings, and with
my ears sweetly charmed in the melodious buzz of
the fashion-gossip. Of the few expressions of
artistic opinion I heard, one was to the eit'oet that
the most Imposing picture present was that of
Shreyer called the "C'ha'-ge of the French Cavalry
at Waterloo." The late James Cail'erty's portrait Is
linng with some of his works, but none of these
works number among his best. There were some
very fine wood-scenes by George Inues, a moon
light scene by Hammer, and Vedder's "Death of
Abel." Kaulbach's "Aieeting of Mary Stuart and
(Juuen Elizabeth" naturally attracted a great deal of
attention, and suggested some of the scenes to
which the genius of Rlstorl gave birth when sue was
here. The regular season commeuced last night,
Wednesday's view being an altogether private one.
The "Universe,"
the spiritualist and progressive newspaper winch
has been hitherto published at ChieagJ, is, after
January 1st, to go to press In this city. It is a scini
weekly newspaper, In which correspondence, edi
torials, poetry, tales, sketches, and clipping's all
deal in two subjects Women and Spirits. It is a com
bination of the Banner of Light and Jt volution. Otio
of Its choicest columns is devoted to "Social Crimes,'
Imagine a woman attending to that department,
and toning down the nastiuess so as to render it
suitable for reading in the family circle. The famllv
circle of the theatre Is the more advisable place lor
it, Tho West, its publishers say, has supported it,
b it New York, it is suspected, wib support it better.
It will lose the spicy and spiritual correspondence
from New York which was one of its attractions,
but, It will gain a local miscellany or scandal and
morals from the mediums.
Home for Falleu Men.
This Is the title of a charitable Institution contem
plated by the large-hearted editresses of the lin uiit
Hon, It is intended for those poor, lost males who
have nowtiere to lay their heads, and wouldn't lay
them there even If they had it '. Or, it is Intended as
a withering sarcasm on the futile efforts to main
tain homes for fallen women in this ctty aud accom
plish an appreciable amount of good. It is note
worthy in this connection that If a woman falls once
Bhe Is universally pronounced to have fallen for
ever, there being no hope for her so far as "society"
Is concerned. A man may fall ever so low, and ever
bo many times, but hi chances are always good.
And yet the "homes" for fallen women are plenty,
and the fallen men are left to redertn themselves.

YERY STRANGE.

from the A nnale f la Chirurgie Strangere.
On tho isth of April, 1868, in the prison of Villo
ma (Province of Mlnas-Geraes), In llraztl, two men
named Avelro and Carlnes were executed at the
same time. In Brazil executions take place with
closed doors, In the Interior of the prison. Dr.
Lorenzo y Carmo of Rio Janeiro, well known by
savans lor Ills remarkable works on electricity ap
plied to physiology, his surgical skill, and his success
In autoplastic operations, obtained permission to
prom, uj nun eveut in order to experiment on tne
power of elcctrlcif. and to lllust.rntP its analogy
(p,,!, .... ,y!i .J - . -. v
f VH&;
rous experiments hitherto attempted have been
made on the head and trunk separately. -Dr. Lo
renzo y Carmo's design was, if possible, to unite the
head to the neck after lurnDitntion.
The heads of the two criminal fll within a few
minutes of eaeh fftfcer into the same basket first
thntot Carlnes, Ihen that of Aveiro. Immediately
alter this second execution a compression win
effected by a pupil of Dr. Lorenzo on the carotid ar
teries of one of the heeds, so as to stop the homor
rluige. The body was then placed on abed already
prepared, and Dr. Lorenzo stuck the head as exactly
as possible on the section and kept it in that posi
tion. The cells of a powerful electric pile wore ap
plied to tho base of tho neck aud on the breast.
Under this lntliience, as In former experiments, the
respiratory movements were at once perceptible.
As the blood which penetrated in abundance through
the surface of the scar threatened to stop the pas
saged air, Dr. Lorenzo had recourse to tracheotomy.
Respiration then ensued regularly. The head was
fastened to tho body byBittches nnd by n special
apparatus. The physiologist wished to ascertain for
how locg a time this appearance of life could thus
be artificially maintained.
His astonishment was great when ho saw that nt
the end of two hours ii"t only did respiration still
continue under the inllueuce of the electric current,
but that circulation had even resumed a certain
regularity. Tim pulse bent feebly but sensibly. The
experiment was continued without Intermission.
Al the end of sixty-two hours it was evident to the
astonishment of every one that a process of oiciitrl
ziition hail commenced on the lips of the section. A
little Isler signs of lile manifested themselves
spontaneously In the head and limbs, till then
deprived of motion. At this moment the
director of the prison, arriving for
the first time In the experiment room, observed that,
by a singular mistake due to the haste of the opera
tion, the head of Carlnes hail uecn taken fur that or
Avelro, and had been applied to the body of the lat
ter. The experiment was continued .notwithstand
ing. Three days later the respiratory movements
reproduced themselves, and electricity was sup
pressed. Dr. Lorenzo y Curino and his assistants
were stupolled, frightened at a result unexpected,
and at the power Of an agent which, in their hands,
had restored life to a body whose right to exist the
law had forfeited.
The learned surgeon, who had only had in view a
simple physiological experiment, employed all his
skill to continue this work, which science, aided
against all expectation by nature, had so singularly
commenced, lie assisted the process of cicatriza
tion, which progressed under the most, favorable
conditions. By means of an a'sophagian probe
liquid nourishment was Introduced into ttie stomach.
At the end of about three months the cicatrization
was complete, and motion, though still difficult, be
came more and more extended. At length, at tins
end of stven months and a half, Aveiro-Carlnes was
able to rise and walk, feeling only a slight stiffness
In the neck, aud a feebleness In the limbs.
A MORMON BASHAW.
IIow ho Tried to fMiiimttle (ioods nnd was
CniiKlH.
From the X. Y. World of this morning.
Some two months ugo, a Mormon elder, coming
from Europe, was caught by the Custom House
officers In the act of smuggling a few articles which
the Salt Lake bashaw brought for his harem. These
things were sold by order or the United State3 Mar
shal on Wednsday of this week. The catalogue is
quite Instructive, giving one an Insight of how a
well-to-do polygamlst provides for ills numerous
wives. This Mormon saint scums to have eleven
wives, as he brought eleven pairs of scissors and
eleven pairs of groves. There are eleven dress pat
terns of some pretension, viz. : Four dresses in silk,
8 silk mixed with wool, and 4 white and figured co
lored muslin dresses, plainly showing ttiat In a
well-regulated Mormon harem, distinctions are
drawn, as well as In Persia or Turkey. Eleven dozen
handkerchiefs of one kind was in a lot. Our Mor
mon bashaw has certainly some favorites, inasmuch
as he brought, besides these, four dozen superior
handkerchiefs, evidently intended for the four,
favorite wives for whom the four silk dresses were
Intended. In the article of hair-pins the Morftion
was quite Impartial, ior he had 120 fancy hair-pins
and G5 fancy hack-combs; also 73 various hair-nets.
It says little for the domestic Industry of polygamy,
that only three thimbles were among the whole lot
of seized goods. In corsets, tho lecherous sinner
was quite profuse, and he actually bought for all his
wives satin corsets. Evidently Intended for the
favorite Sultana was the following: 1 pair of brace
lets, 1 pln-cushiou. 1 set of broach aud earrings, 1
bonboniere, and 1 work-box.
Whether or not there is a punishment hereafter
for polygamy Is certainly a second consideration to
the pickle the poor Mormon was In when presenting
himself to his wives, al ter a long absence, without
the above-eouinerated presents, aud some ninety
lots more, of such tilings as linen, table-cloths, nap
kins, cutlery, spoons, parasols, etc. etc.
A philosophical mind may, however, feel skeptical
about the whole transaction. The Mormon may.
alter all, have purposely betrayed himself to the offi
cers of the law, and got rid of the presents as the
best means of getting rid of a domestic scene. They
must be saints, Indeed, in Utah, if eleven wives
should be satisfied with but four silk dresses.
As it is, the Moiinon can Bhow his wives the in
voices, over which they may feast to their hearts'
content, and the wily saint can even have the plea
sure ol assuring each wife in secret that the choicest
article was Intended for her special use.
UTAH.
An Apostle Assaulted nnd a
Mail nt r.veoiu
iiiiiiiicnieti.
Salt Lake City, Oct. 26 It will be remembered
that during the recent, speech of Mr. Colfax here, U.
L. Sloan made some insulting remarks, for which ho
was assaulted by Mr. J. Watters, one of the "Uen
tiles" present. A lew days ago, Mr. Watters, in com
pany with n friend, went across the Jordan river to
witness the Mormon militia drill. While .there,
Joseph F. Smith, a Mormon apostle, who is con
sidered a "shining light" in Brlgham's church,
stepped up, and asked Win if his name was Watters.
Mr. Watters replied in the affirmative, when
the "Apostle" struck him a heavy blow with his list,
at the same time using very profane language. A
Mormon named Thomas Nuylor then jumped upon
Watters, and aided by smith, beat and kicked him In
a shocking manner. Joseph F. Smith is a son of
Hyruni, Josepti Smith's brother, and one of iirlghara's
firmest adherents, by whom he was recently elevated
to the Apostleshlp. He is one of Brlgham's tools,
used by him 111 the opposition to David and Alexan
der Smith, his cousins. The cutting off' of tiodiie,
Harrison, and Tullidge of The Ctah llaiiazint was
made dual yesterday. I received a report of the
proceedings there about an hour ago, from one of the
members who is secretly opposed to Brigham. At
I lie last moment j Stenhouse, of The Telegraph,
and Oeorge D. WuH gave way, and their
cases were not Hnullv settled. It is thought,
however, that under the repeated Insults of
Brigham they may yet Hud backbone sufficient to
cuiry them through. When the ease of W. S. CJodbe
was called up he arose, and said that the people of
Vlan wunied more freedom, and that Brlgham's
power hud become too despotic. Brigham imme
diately moved that Brother Oodbe be cut off from
thecnureli, and delivered over lo tne nunetings oi
Sultin. Henry Lawrence, a Mornyiii, and member of
ol the firm of Kimbnll & Lawrence, merchants, op
posed the excommunication of Mr. Oodbe, but was
immediately silenced by Brigham, who permits no
argument from the opposition. The question was
put to the vole and carried, Mr. Law
rence and Ml B. Kelsey, another prominent
Mormon, voting against the excommunica
tion. The cases ol Lawrence and Kelsey
will now be taken up, and they will probably be ex
communicated for daring to vote in opposition to
the policy or the Church. Brigham stated, at tho
conclusion of the meeting, that the publication of
the Utah itaiaxine must lie stopped ut ull hazards,
and thut he should send word to every bishop
throughout the Territory to prevent the people from
subscribing lor it. It is thought that the expected
excommunication of Lawrence and Kelsey will lead
to the delection of other prominent Mormons, and
create the miciiMM for an opposition which may yet
result in Brlgham's overthrow.

Havana, Oct. iil Four thousand and two soldiers
exactly have reached us from Spain within the last
two weeks; but the wur situation looks fair for the
Cubans, us their food crop isgood, and the Havana
people ai taking in plenty of wounded. Wonderful
to suy, (iovenior Noval, of Colon, has been put In
prison for authorizing the murder of more than
llfiy proprietors without, court martial, and so Minis
ter Becerra's recent Instructions have been effective
for once but to what extent? To add to the hope
fulness of tho Cubans, the Diario reports small
risings near Uuanajav und In the Vttoltu-Abajo, und
similar news reaches us from llunes. Kvery steamer
brings up wounded from santliigo, Government re-
ports notwithstanding, nnd the new comers from
Spain are needed to cover the last quarter's losses by
fever and fire. In the Clnco Villas the lnsnrgents
have moo men, most of them armed In the last few
months: hence tho late commotion In that neighbor
hood. The robber inurre-to Carlos Garcia, wno
came to Havana to receive trtooo on condition of
leaving the country, has escaped Into the country
again, and accordingly we have the rlvnl reports
that he haR l een charged to kill Cespedes, and that
ho Is recruiting once more against Spain.

SUICIDE.
Suicide ( n Yoiniff .Unn In a ltrolhelIenloniy
I lie Co ne of llio Nad Kvcnt-Alleeu iniim iiu
oi'n itllNtri'Mfl.
Lust, evening a despatch was received at the Cen
tral Station stating that tho Coroner wa3 needed at
No. mo Locust street, where Benjamin K. IJrincK
ley, It whs supposed, had committed suicide. On re
pairing thither Coroner Tavlor found the house
under the charge of policemen, and that the Inmates
had been removed by order of Lieutenant Campbell
to the Fifth District Station. The facts of tho rise
were narrated to him, whim he empanelled a Jury,
and tho witnesses, having been brought back to the
house, were examined. ,
r'rom the testimony it appears that Brinckley, tor
two years past, had lieeu residing there with Mrs.
Kate Lawrence, a woman well known among tlio
ilpwi-mi.mie of this city,; that his love for her was of
such a nature that he continued to live with her,
despite the protests of his lamily, who are or ttie
resin ctable and wealthy order; that at times no
would become Intoxicated, when he would mani
fest considerable Jealousy, contending that Kate
was not true to him. This hallucination, for so it
seems to have been, became strengthened In his
own mind by a recent occurrence. He left for Chi
cngo several days since, and ou his return to this
city found Kate-absent from tho city. On her
arrival home again he learned that she had
been In New York, and he charged her with
having formed a new liaimm and otherwise showed
signs of jealousy. Yesterday ho drank somewhat
freely. In the afternoon he and Kate walked out
together, and while ou Chesnut street he accused
her of deceiving him. He became quite angry at
her, and on returning home had but little to say to
her. Towards dusk she went down stairs to get
her supper; she had called Brinckley, but he failed
to respond. On going to her room she
found him rummaging the bureau drawer,
where she kept two pistols. Supposing
that he was looking for the weapons,
she ran towards him and Implored him to desist. He
held a two-barrelled pistol In his hand, and threat
ened to shoot her and himself. After a hard strug
gle she induced him to return the weapon to the
drawer. She then left the room, and returning in a
few minutes, she found the door fastened, but lu
duced him to open it- He had the weapon in his
hand, and immediately after she entered he placed
the muzzle to his forehead and fired, and fell sense
lens to the floor.
The house where this tragic affair occurred has
had a doubtfut reputation for many years, and has
been the resort of young girls who have deviated
from the path of virtue. Several of them were exa
mined before the Coroner and his jury, and although
two of them bore almost the relation of daughters to
the deceased, they did not seem to experience any
pain at his sad departure from this world. After the
jury had rendered a verdict of suicide, all the in
mates were releassd from custody and preparations
were immediately begun for the interment of the
body.
The Jewish Rkfokm Convention In the Jewish
Eeiorm Convention, now in session in this city, the
following proceedings have transpired, In continua
tion of those detailed on another page:
Propositions three, four, and five were adopted
without debate, and read as follows:
3. Tho benediction until now In use is to be re
placed by one which fully expresses the moral eleva
tion of the married state and emphasizes the Biblical
idea of the fusion of man and woman into one per
sonality, and the Divine prohibition of Illegal inter
course. 4. Polygamy is In direct opposition to tho Idea of
marriage. Tho marriage of a man to a second wife
can be as little valid, therefore, and as little claim
Ihe sanction of ecclesiastical authorities, ns the mar
riage of a woman already married with another man
is to be considered null and void.
. The fourth resolution must In so far be explained
that heretofore a woman who was married to a man
who is proved to have a wife living had to bo di
vorced by the rablnnlcal authorities before she could
marry again.
o. Tlie priestly marriage laws, which presuppose
the higher sanctity of the Aaronites, have lost, since
the destruction of the Temple and the extinction of
the sacrillclal worship, all validity, and are no longer
to be respected.
The next question wns the validity of divorce by
the civil authorities and the position of religion in
regard to It. The following is the flrst resolution
passed :
Divorce Is, on Mosalcal and rabbinical grounds,
only a civil act, and never was a religious function.
It therefore must be recognized solely as an act
cmauating from a judicial authority ol the State.
The so-culled Kitual Gat (Jewish letters of divorce)
is therefore in all eases declared ineffectual.

great surprise of the at root. Of ctmro this aoiion ot
Air. Boutwell in perfectly lei;itiiiiiis ; but it remains
to bo seen whether sucli a deviation from whut wn
expected regarding tho extent of his purchase will
not, in the lonu run. operate disailvariln':eouiy to
the Cioveriimcnt, for, with an impresHinn in the street t liit
he may buy all that are otlerod, the prioo of bonds will oa
hance accordingly. The B7' went aa low as 115'b this moi n
hiK before the purchases, and closed at 1 lo', t iii;'it, wlinn
it was ki own that two millions had bm n purchased iml u l
of one. Of course, when the Uovorninent otters to buy tile
smaller amount there is more competition aiuoiiR siuiorj,
and tho loweot prices ure asked. A reduction of tliinsu.l

shown in the price of cold, which doclinod r.n the oxpuj'a

The death of the celebrated philanthropist, Ocorce

the morning Journals have obituary articles. That
of the Time says: "The news of iMr. Pe.ibody's
death will be received with no commou sorrow on
both sides of the Atlantic. The sentiment of regret
will not be a mere passing tribute of gratitude to the
munificent benefactor. Mr. Peabody through a long
lile aceumulated manifold titles to be :amcuted.
"He was an ardent patriot, nnd loved abroad as
much as at home. He was a New Eaglander, who,
when the South was bowed down to 'he dust,
stepped forward and claimed the riitht to succor IU
He was no courtier, yet ho was honored by sove
reigns and princes. He was profuse In his charity,
which pnuoerUea nobody. Ho was a philanthropist,
who was liked as well as honored. There was no
thing hard or narrow about his philanthropy. Uo
simply did whatever good came In his way."
