There Is at present lying in the T.lrklnhead docks,
KiiRland, one of the largest Kast Indlamen afloat,
viz., the Adriatic, whose history Is a rather eventful
one. The Adriatic originally formed one of the cele
brated Collins line of steamships sailing between
New York and the Mersey, and is a Bister ship to the
ill-fated Pacitlo, Arctic, and Haltio. liver since the
collapse ot the Collins line the Adriatic, we believe,
was laid at Southampton nntil w'thln the last few
months, when she was purchased by Mr. Kdward
Bates and bronglit round to the Mersey to be trans
formed into a sailing vessel. , The work Is now being
rapidly carried on, and m the course of a month or
so the Adriatic will be one of the largest sailing ves
sels trailing out of the port of Liverpool.
Mr. Bates owns several large vessels, one of them,
the Bates Family, being capable of stowing away
11,000 bales of cotton ; but when the alterations of the
Adriatlo are completed she will be able to carry about
2,000 bales of Kant India cotton.

resulted in favor of the Insurgents, the latter cap
tured a Spanish flag, which Is reported to be the cele
brated tandard given by Saint Kulalia many hun
dred years ago to the - Catalans nnder heavenly
direction and interposition, and which has been
borne to honor and glory on innumerable fields, and
In all parts ol the world. This semi-gacred flag was
confided to the Catalau volunteers by the authorities
of Catalonia at Barcelona, ainld impressive cere

bright deeilut in the no longer faithful lnluui, and

1 send you the particulars in brief of a most cow
ardly anil dastardly outrage npon an American mer
chant vessel and some of her crew by a band of
Spanish volunteers. On yesterday evening a num
ber of American, Knglish, and Norwegian seamen
were remonstrated with by a watchman In Kegla
against making much noise. This quieted the men
and the turbulent party broke up, but one of the
seamen, who remalued behind, threw an empty
bottle at the watchman as this one was walking
away, and then ran oir, escaping arrest. From this
small incident a report was propagated In Kegla that
a number of American sailors had nearly killed
one of the watchmen, aud without Investigating
the matter some twenty-five of the Rugla volunteers,
arms in hand, upon their own volition, without any
order from the authorities, and therefore withour,
warrants, proceeded to the West Regla wharf, and
boarded the American schooner T. J. Frazler, Cup.
taiu Madge, then unloading. They paid no atten
tion to the remonstrances of the odlcers against
their coming on board without authority, but, on the
contrary, greatly Insulted these ottlcers, and at once
seized three of the crew, and so severely beat, cat,
and stabbed them that their lives are In danger.
They then brought the three men to tho Guanabacna
Jail, where they are now confined. It is useless to
sav that these men. all American citizens, did not
nearly kill a watchman, as pretended by the volun

tliu one of them even mrow me empty uotue mat
gave rise to the mystification of the volunteers. The
sailor that committed this small oil'ense Is known to
be a Norwegian, and unconnected with the Fruzler.

John Myers end his son John, residents of Astoria,

FALSE SPIRITS.
Jk Yoan Man Duped T a. medium Int the
Ili-llnf that file Father Had Ileen Kobbed and
Murdered.
The Chicago Tribun of the (1th has the following:
There may be some foundation for spiritualism;
but one thing Is certain, the splriw are not always
correct In their statements regarding occurrences
about which a privileged few are permitted to ask
them. Their memories may bo defective, or the
unknown world muy bo such as to cause them to
forget the persons and things thy left behind them.
Being suddenly reminded by a medium that they
Were once mortals, and Interrogated abont circum
stances which one would suppose would ever be re
mi'inbereil, they may become confused and commu
nicate what lirst suggest Itself, or some mischievous
spirit, delighted at. the opportunity of furnish
ing worldlings with ' something to talk about,
may personate some one else, und mis
state faets purposely. Consequently, from
one of these causes arises the errors
which are frequently made. U can bo occonntcd for
in no other way. The mediums pretend to, aud
without doubt do, give the exact language of the
spirits, and as they are generally respectable people,
would not lie guilty of perverting It. It would be
doing a manifest lujustlce to a great many worthy
spirits to say that they were guilty of uttering false
hoods; but that one of them is guilty lias been
proven conclusively. On Friday afternoon two young
men called upon a iuedlum, whose ohice is on Clark
street. One of them stated that ho desired to hear
from bis father, who was In tho spirit land, he
haing died some time ago. After a small fee had
been paid the medium summoned the defunct,
having recognized him as he was passing tho win
dow, with nnmbers of other spirit, on their way
South. Ho was asked how he was gettini? along,
and replied that he had the headache, having been
struck on the head with a club, by his employer,
while on earth, and robbed of $7,(KH. The son was
amazed at the news, ami without waiting for fur
ther particulars left with his companion to find
the murderer. The Employer referred to by the
deceased is a well-known merchant of this city,
whose place of business Is on South Water street.
To his store the young men proceeded, und finding
their man, in the son said to him,. "My father was In
your employ as travelling agent. He was foully
murdered by you and robbed of IOOU. I have posi
tive proof against you, and will prosecute you unless
yon give me the amount you took from him." The
merchant became confused, aud did not know what
to say. The young man's father had been in his em
ploy, but he believed he died from natural causes.
After some further conversation with the son he
made an appointment to meet him on Saturday af
ternoon. When the two hail gone he reflected upon
the matter, and came to tho conclusion tliut it was
a conspiracy to blackmail him. Under this Im-
Sresslou bo communicated the circumstances to
Ir. William Plnkerton, son of the famous detec
tive. Ou Saturday afternoon Mr. Plnkerton took a
position at a desk in tho counting-room of the
store, und when the son came in heard the whole
story repeated. He also came to tho conclusion that
it was a scheme to obtain money, and proposed to
the merchant to do one of two things to give the
two young men a good thrashing or have tnem ar.
rested. The merchant refused to do either, and his
accuser left, obvlonsly fvcry angry. The son next
proceeded to Plnkerton's ohice, on Washington
street, and laid the case before Mr. Thiel. Mr. Pin
kertou determined to see If there was anything in it.
His Inquiries and etl'orts resulted in his learning that
the information of the murder (7) was given by the
medium. The deceased father received a salary of
t love per annum while In the employ of the mer
chant, and, as he had a family to provide for, it is
safe tj say he never had 178 ut one time, let alone
$7ri,ouo. Young men, whose fathers are dead, should
not rely upon what professional "mediums" say,
or they may become the laughing stock of the com
munity. OBITUARY.
Frederick OverbecU.
The foreign mail brings Intelligence of the death
of the celebrated German painter, Frederick Ovcr
beck. None of the particulars of his dctnlso are
given ; but It probably occurred at Home, where he
had lived and lattored for more than half a century,
and bad built up a school of art and. seen it
graduully decay. He was born in l.ubeck in
17H, and wont to Home to study art in lalo.
There was a company of enthusiastic young German
artists at that time in Homo Cornelius Veit and
Hchadow among them who dreamed of a regenera
tion of art, a new renaissance In which the Bcvere
simplicity and truth of the early masters should be
taken as the model of excellence in form, aud reli
gious mysticism should breathe into the painter's
work a more elevated spirit. Overbeek was the
heart and soul of this little band. Art, he declared,
was not precious in itself or for its own beauty ;
it existed only for the sake of religion. He de
spised the sensuous loveliness of Raphael, and
went back for his Inspiration to Pomglno and the
early ascetic school. The young artists found
their 11 ret patron in the Prussian Consul, llur
tholdy. He commissioned them to deuor.ite his
villa with frescoes, and litre Overtook executed his
"Joseph Sold Into Captivity" and the "Seven Years
of Famine," by which he pluced himself decidedly at
the head of the new school. In 1814, with several of
his associates, he embraced the Koman Catholic
fuitb, and from that time he devoted his pencil
more exclusively thau ever to religious subjects,
one by one his disciples fell away. Some died;
others, like Cornelius, were enticed Into the more
vigorous and romantic style of the later German
school ; Overbook alone remained true to his 11 rat
principles, and pursued in seclusion his devout
labors, producing a great number of paintings and
designs in charcoal and chalk, tnstiuct with religious
sentiment, harmonious In composition, und truthful
in spirit, though he was not a correct draughtsman
nor a good colorlst. His masterpiece is generally
thought to be his "Triumph of Christianity in the
Arts," in the StaUelsche Institute ut FraukforUon
t he-Main. Most of his best works are familiar all
throuuh TCurone and America by line-enurravings.
wood-cuts, and lithographs, and the most distin
guished Germun engravers have employed them
selves in reproducing his compositions.
MEDICAL STUDENT OF THE PERIOD.

1' finale Woetor Threatening to JShooi.
A coiTespondont of the World has the following
letter In this morning's issue of that paper:
As a student of the Bellevue Hospital Medical Col
lege, 1 deem It my duty to inform you of a little cir
cumstance which happened on board the steamer
Fletcher, which carries Bellevuo students to the
clinics on Blackwell s Island. In coming up from
Charity Hospital last Tuesday, a female student
came on board. W hen she arrived, tho settees were
all occ upled by the mule students. She walked up to
one of the scuts and said to a student, "Will you
get up and give me a seat? if you don't I will sitlu
your lap." Well the students gave her a scat on the
end of tho settee, and ull went quietly lor a few
inlnnteR, when some of the students who were stand
ing back placed their feet on the rung of the settee
mid tipped it partially over. Sho looked savagely at
one of the students, who, unfortunately for him, sat
alongside of her, und who was entirely lnncoent of
participating in the ufl'alr In any manner. Tue settee
was partially tipped again, when she said: "I will
shoot the tlrst man that f tps this seat again, and,
a! ho, the first nian thut insults me will forfeit his
life,'" when not a word hud been said to her by any
of the students. During the time she was saying
these loud words she pluced her hand lu her pocket
In a very Knowing manner, m ne stuuents assem
bled around, when she exclaimed: "1 utn not
afraid of lour hundred llellevue students, aud 1 can
lick any oue of you ; I don't care a lig for ull tho
clinics; I come here out of spite, and nothing else,
because I know you don't want me here; 1 have
seen more than any of you," which 1s au untruth,
as she never began to study medicine until a year
ago.
When she hod finished this little speech, the stu
dents begun to laugh, and also the student who sat
ulongsldo of her. Sho Immediately Jumped up and
begun to strike this student who sat alongside of
her, who, as 1 said before, was entirely innocent of
having anything to do with the affair. lie caught
her and held her, and ho said: "Mudum, If you have
no respect for yourself, you ought to huve for tho
gentlemen present." "1 do respect myself, and the
meu too, and, what is more. I love them." Triis, of
course, created quite a laugh among the students.
When the boat arrived at Twenty-sixth streot, East
river, she got off and walked up the street with a
very dignified (V) air. The student whom she
asssulted reported the case to Mr. Brennan, Warden
of Bellevue Hospital, who will report the case to the
Commissioners of Charities and Corrections, who
will act upon It
The whole affair was caused by her unladylike
language in saying, "II yon dont get up I will sit lu
jour lay." None f the students iuaulted or Injured
tier In any manner; thetlpringof the seat wai onlv
abont two Inches from tho deck, and not by any
iiu aiis high enough to canse her to complain. How
mticn better would It have been for her to get np if

The effects of an lee water bath were effeetnally
tested by one John McCmtrray, itst Saturday, and
the result proved nearly fatal to the victim. Hutween
11 and VI o'clock Mr. William Llanenkohl, who lives
at No. 66 Commercial street, heard vociferous calls
for help, and hastening to the spot from whence the
noise proceeded saw a person struggling in the
water of the canal near the Commercial street
bridge. Patrolman Dillon, with the assistance of
two or three citizens, succeeded in rescuing the un
fortunate individual just as he waj going down for

A Kevoltlnn Htory.
A deserted boy, between six and seven years of
sge,was brought to the Chicago Armory on Saturday
evening, whose bodily condition is snch that even
stout-hearted policemen wre appalled at the sight. A
cancer had eaten away his entire nose, lips, anil a
part of his chin, and his face, what little remains, Is
one fearful sore. Owing to the absence of his Hps he
is unable to articulate, and consequently can give no
Information that, will lead to his Identity. He was
brought to the Armory by an employe of tho United
States Kxpress Company, who says that he came to
the office In company with his father supposed to
hold that relation towards him In the morning. It
Is hardly possible that the father if such he was
took that mode of deserting the boy. The thought
is too terrible to be believed. And yet, his disap
pearance, or rather non-appearance, can hardly ie
acct.unt.ed for upon any other hypothesis. The case
Is one that appeals to the sympathyof the most oi
d u rate heart. It Is scarcely possible, at the rate the
cancer is now devouring the boy, that he can survive
six months.

We regret that we are compelled to chronicle a

Mr. George K. iienlsohn, this "Honorable City
Father," obtained, under the false pretense that he
had large deposits of money In different banks, con
siderable amounts or money, by giving his checks
for it. He generally managed to make these nice
little transactions after banking hours, saying that It
was too late to draw funds, and that he needed tlicra
at that moment for some particular purposes. In
some instances he forged the signatures of several
of our business linns to checks and drew various
amounts. This latter charge could not, at tho late
hour In which wo received tho report, be tracul np.
and we are not willing to vouch for Its truth. The
amounts obtained by lieiitsnhn are variously esti

young men of tho neighborhood conceived tho idea
of irigbtenlng two of tho ladles who hail some dis

Wrapping himself in a sheet from head to foot, he
took a short path, and emerged npon the trio from a

In white became visible, moving slowly towards
them, the trio set up the most horrible shrieks, and

declared that he was entirely guiltless or any con

who committed it. He added thut he entered the

der; thut he was met by Mrs. Cunningham In the

that his physician had Informed him that his eud

Peokia, Ills., Dec. 8. Citizens of CbUlicothe,
Illinois, have been thrown into a state of great
excitement over the discovery of a club covered
with blood, and pieces of human hair clotted
with blood, and a skiff with blood In it in a
slough a short distance above that place. A
despatch was received In Chilllcothe on the
night Of the Oth, from Coles connty, stating that
Louis Sttxton had (started for that town, but had
not been heard from since. His non-arrival, and
the fact of his having a largo sum of money on
his pcreon, leads to the supposition that ho has
been murdered, tho club, hair, and skiff being
evidence of it- The slough was dragged for the
body, but none found. The whole affair seems
wrapped In mystery.

Despatch to The Ecening Telegraph.
Newark, N. J., Dec. 8. About 9 o'clock lost
evening a fire broke out in the brick building
No. 14 Oliver street, which is occupied by
several large jewelry establishments. The signal
from the Hall tower called tho fire department
promptly to the spot, and through their exer
tions tho flames were soon overpowered, and
the building saved. The fire is supposed to have
originated in the basement, which Is in the west
end of the building. , When the fire
broke out some of the workmen upon the
eecond floor were still at work. They had con
siderable difficulty in making their escape by
the burning stairway, and were nearly suffocated
by the smoke which at the time filled the
building.
Several streams of water were soon directed
on the burning bbllding, and the flames reduced,
but not, however, before considerable damage
had been occasioned to tho wooden partition
and flooring In each story. Tho entire loss is
estimated at about $5000, which is fully covered
by Insurance. Tho valuable stock was protected
from damage by being stored in fire-proof
safes.

five Sioux Indians, and two soldiers of tho 4th

Loudon Snowdcn, the Chief Coiner, who, in
coniunctlon with Mr. William Barber, the en
graver, was delegated by tho Director of tho
Mint, Governor Pollock, to represent the officers
of that institution on tho occasion. The medal
Is a neaL elaborate, and exquisite production.
But apart from its boauty and undoubted merit
as a rare work of art, it will always possess
peculiar claims to consideration as marking the
accomplishment of a great national work, one
of the most stupendous in conception and exe
cntlon of modern limes. This grand under
taking of uniting the two oceans by rail having
been completed during the Presidency of Gene
ral Grant, It was eminently proper that he should
oe tho recipient of the first medal struck to com

' The President seemed highly gratified at this

Nahuvillk, Doc. 8. In most of tho counties
of this State candidates have been nominated
for tho Constitutional Convention. From des
patches received at the Banner ottice' It is
gleaned that a decided majority of those already
nominated will favor a provision granting tho
ballot to negroes. Tho opposition is, however,
likely to bo strong enough to make tho contest
on tho subject exciting and prolonged. Tho
two candidates nomiuated to-day in Wilson
county are strongly committed against colored
suffrage, and tho Shelby county and Memphis
candidates are disposed to bo on the same side.
Suffrage and repudiation will undoubtedly bo
the prominent subjects before tho convention.
Most of the candidates nominated are ex-Con-foderates.
Both houses of tho Legislature have
resolved to adjourn on itlie 'ld inst., to meet

meets on the second Monday in January, so that

The message of the President, coupled with the
highly favorable reports to Congress from the heads
ol tho various departments of auto, are well calcu
lated to relieve tlio country of the depression wtilcli
has weighed heavily upon the business energies of
the people for many months past. Uut there is much
yet to be done before the relics of the past confusion
shall have been removed from view. Tho recom
mendations urged on Congress by the Secretary of
the Treasury and the Comptroller of the Currency
must first be passed upon by Congress, and the mass
of.projects bearing uton the same subjects which
are likely to be pressed upon Its attention bid fairly
to inaugurate an era of conrusion, and to absorb the
precious time of the session in useless discussions.
The local money market is devoid or special fea
