If. K. II. Arthur, W. P. A. Onelph, K. G.. ar
rWcd In Now York yesterday direct from Mon
tr il. This fortunate young man, whoso volu
minous name Is announced with a tall at both
ends, is thcthlrd won and seventh child of tho
Queen of Orcat Britain, and 1b therefore ac
corded a position of promlnenco in the world.
He was born on the 1st day of May, 1850. 1 to Is
a graduate of tho military academy at Wool
wich, and Is a lieutenant In the regiment of Lord
Alexander George Kiiwell, stationed In Canada.
He came out laBt fall to join his regiment, ac
companied by a retinue suitable for a Prince.
The expense of transporting this young lieuten
ant to his regiment was xr;l,(HK), tho bill for
which,' when presented to the Cb.nucc.llor of the
Exchequer, were promptly repudiated, the
honest, burly old peer remarking that if tho
young man chose to travel In royal state ha
mlht foot his own bills. Whether tho little nc
couut has yet been settled or not has not been
ascertained. Mrs. Uuelph, however, is reported
to be a wealthy womnn, and la undoubtedly abla
to pay the little travelling expenses of her minor
children.
Through the courtesy of Commodore Vandcr
bllt this scion of British royalty has travelled
thus far in tho United States in regal splendor,
though merely at tho cost of flrJt-clas tickets
lor himself and suite. Tho Commodore sent bin
private car to Montreal expressly for tho use of
tho votjg man. In this princely conveyance
II. K. A. found everything that even royalty
could demand, as appears from the fact that ho
rode the entire distance from Montreal to New
York, occupying twenty -two honrs' time, without
once leaving tho car. At St. Albans supper was
erved hlraln the car, and at Troy, breakfast.
Arthur's suite comprises Colonel the Hon.
John Frederick Elphiuntonc, Lieutenant-Colonel
of the Scots Fusilier Guards, who accompanies
him in tho capacity of Governor; Lieutenant
Picard, of tho Horse Artillery, equerry, or mas
ter of tho horse, or Buperlnteudeut of transporta
tion; Lieutenant l'it.roy, of tho Ililie Brigade,
aide-de-camp or private Mjeretary; a valet; two
gentlemen iu liveries, vulgarly termed lackeys;
and a polieo ofliccr.
Tho valet of the Prince Is a gentleman by birth
and education, as his manner, dress, and car
riage betoken, although our reporter was un
fortunate in not learning his name. Ho very
losely resembles, in tignro and style, some
gentlemen by birth and education of this city.
In fact he Is a nobby young man, with a
penchant for French airs rather than those of
merry old England.
American curiosity asserted Itself on tho ar
rival of.this party at tho Thirteenth street station
of the Hudson Kivcr Railroad New York, soon
after noon yesterday, where a crowd of several
hundred men and women were assembled to gaze
at them. These, however, wero held In pretty
fair subjection by tho police during the alight
ing of the royal party. Mr. Edward Thornton,
the British Minister at Washington, and his
secretary, met them at the depot.
They immediately entered carriages that were
in waiting, and drove rapidly to the Brevoort
House, a low men In the crowd shouting after
thorn, and two or three ladles waving handker
chiefs. Entering the Brevoort House, he was met by
Wait, the proprietor, who bade him welcome.
The Prince bowed his thanks, and went up to
the apartmetts prepared for him.
Mr. Archibald, the Lritish Consul, sent round
at a iiO two quick travelling carriages, and tho
party sallied forth to see tho glories of the
world-celebrated Central Park. The carriage
passed out of the Park about 4 o'clock and pascd
down Fifth avenue, and pulled up at tho Bre
voort House at 4-;i0.
Immediately after dinner the Prince and party
started on foot for Wallack's Theatre precisely
at six and a half minutes to eight.
AloHgMde of the Prince sat Mr. Archibald,
British Consul, who looked as if ho ln.d bcei
cut out of a chcese-parlng; Mr. Thorutou, ilie
British Minister, with his usual gooseberry-fool
expresblon; and Mr. Trench, a son of the Earl
of Claiiearty, and attache of the British Lega
tion. During the eveulng tho Prince gave une
quivocal expressions of his admiration of Mr.
Wallnek's acting, and nt the moonlight m trch
broke jout sympathetically into expression of
eulhueiusm. Mr. Klchclicu Kobinson, one of
tho Fenian head-centres, was in the audience,
but the Prince was not molested.
The audience slowly departed from the theatre,
all Bccmlugly reluctant to move farther than the
inner doorwoy, until they had a nearer view of
the Prince, who, 6eelng that they were deter
mined to await his departure, finally, with his
suite, worked his way to the door. There was
oot the least sign of any demonstration until he
arrived at the vestibule of the theatre, when
come ono sung out: "Three cheers for Prince
Arthur.'' The call received a thin response, but
some one who did not know his close proximity
to the royalist eaid: "Where in is tho
- Prince ? i ll cheer him." The Prince looked,
and Immediately thereafter tho cheers wero
. agaia proposed, and they were given with a will.
Arthur raised his hat. He then departed,
escorted by Captain lied Jen with a small snuad
of police uud detectives, who surrounded the
royal party, followed by a crowd.
BROUGHT TO LIFE.
A Child Apparently Choked to Death Hiirrras
fill rsurulcul Wpmitlnn unit TouchlnK Finale.
The Cleveland Jx'adir of jeBterday tells this
touching story:
An accident, which nearly proved fatal, took
place on the West Side yesterday. A little boy,
ten years of age, whllo innocently playing with
a large bean in his mouth, accidentally swal
lowed It, and Immediately experienced the most
intense pain. The child was immediately taken
to the operating rooms of Dr. Weber, where the
doctor proceeded to extract tho bean. A person
not practiced in examining patients in such a
condition would have belie red the child to be
dead. A deadly pallor overspread his counte
nance, tho eyes were glassy and without expres
eioii, tho muscles all relaxed and tho perspira
tion entirely suspended. Everv appearance
indicated that tho grim king of terrors had im
pressed his Ineffaceable seal upon the young boy.
The actual presence of death would htrdly have
changed (ho stiffened limbs and whitened fea
tures of the youth, who seenicd to have been
snatched away from his loving and tender
parents In a moment of Idle playfulness. Dur
ing a minute and a half the child remained
without breathing. All tho studonts surrounded
the child In breathless silence, and Dr. Weber
Eroceeded to extract tho troublesome bean. It
ad passed down out of tho wiudplpe into the
opening that leads into tho lung, and thero
topped.
Dr. Weber began tho operation by making a
longitudinal incision in the neck just below tho
potnwu Adami, In vulgar parlauce Adam's
apple. His next step was to pass an instrument
down through tho Incision, drew up the bean
and pulled It out with a pair of forceps. Tho
child still presented every appearance of a life
less corpse.
Alter the bean had been extracted tho Incision
was held open by t wo hooks, and by pressing on
lie ilJid'e vt','4 UiC ulr iu l: iv a; in, uil.
Tho blood at tho opening was spungod off, and
I y relieving the pressure on tho breast and
Sresslng on the sides beneath the arms, air w n
nwD in through tho aperture made by the In
cision. A mechanical passage of air was thus
established and by continued efforts the child
began to breathe and show signs of conscious
ness. The color returned, the eyes
received their wonted expression, and the little
child, whoso feet bad almost touched the block
river of death, began to move. There were
about fifty student present, and the Success of
the experiment brought down the house with
loud applause. The parents of the child sat in
an adjoining room in breathless expectation,
hopes of the child's recovery and fears of his
death contending in their bosoms. The nolso of
the students caused them to make a rush into
the operating room, where the child lay with
every appearance of robust health. Their joy
was so great that H became necessary to take
the child away from them, to prcveut him from
being smothered by their caresses.
THE LANCASTER.
Her Ci-hInd In the South Allnntlr How the
Mntlonnl ThnnkHtiivlna wait Unnerved.
Wc have been permitted to make the follow
ing extracts from a private letter to a gentleman
in this city, written by a dlntingulshed naval
officer on board the flagship Lancaster, and
dated off Bahia, Brazil, December 211, 1809:
The United States steamer Lancaster, com
manded by Captain Stephen D. Trcnchard, and
bearing the Hag of Kear-Adiiilral Joseph Lan
man, commanding the tanth Atlantic licet, ar
rived on her station, and anchored iu tho harbor
of Bahia, Brazil, on the Sd of December, 180!l.
Olllccrs and crew all well. This vessel left
Hampton Koads, Virginia, on tho 21st of Octo
ber last, bound to Brazil, via tho Islaud of Ma
deira, and reached the roadstead of Fuuchal on
the 21st of the following month, after a lengthy
and tedious pnssage, under Bail, of thirty
days. On the 27th of October, in lat. 35 deg.
12min. N., long. 59 dcg. 6 niin. W., sho encoun
tered a circular storm of great force from E. 8.
K., gradually veering to 8. W. and W. 8. W., In
which the barometer fell to 2'.l,I7 Indies accom
panied by a very heavy sea. Her rudder chains
were parted by Its violence, and for a tlmo the
helm became nlmct unmanageable. The fol
lowing day It blew hard in squalls from W. N.
W. to N. N. W., showing that the cyclone had
passed off to the eastward. On tho 2'Jth the
gale was succeeded by light nirs and, gentle
breezes, from K. n. a, to L.. ty JN., nnrt until her
arrival iu Fuuchal, the patience of all on board
were tried by the continuance of light, adverse
winds.
Thanksgiving day, m set apart by Presidential
proclamation for the 18th day ol November, was
religiously observed on board tho flag-ship in
lat. o0 dcg. 20 niin. N , long. 21 deg 20 inin. W.
on the broad ocean; nnd though the Indispen
sable dinner consisted of pork and beans, snlt
beef (alias salt horse), with "duff" for dessert,
we were cheerful in spirit nnd thankful in our
hearts for the prosperity of our country, and
proud of her greatness among the nations of
tho earth. The chaplain, ltev. Mr. Holoway, de
livered an impressive discourse from a portion
of tho 17th verse of tho 20th Psalm: "But
tee will remember tho name of tho Lord
our God;" and tho services of tho day
were concluded by a patriotic hymn and "Old
Hundred," with music by tho band. (Speaking
of tho services of Chaplain Holoway on board
tho Lancaster, his earnestness iu doing the
greatest amount of good to Jack induced him,
with the concurrence of tho Admiral and Com
mander, to commence a series of popular lec
tures on various subjects, beginning with an
explanation of tho theory of winds, currents.
etc., which are not only well attended by those
lor wnom tuey wero assignee:, uui ny tue
majority of the olllccrs of tno ship, including
tho Ailnilral and Cuntnin. Snrh a svstcm. entire! v
voluntary on tho part of Mr. Holoway, must
result benenelaiiy to tue crew, tvntt is an example
well worthy of imitation by every chaplain in
the employ of the Government.
During the stay of the Lancaster In Fnnchal
tho authorities were exceediuglycivil. Her olli
cers were liberally entertained by tho American
Consul, Dr. Leas. Vice-Consul Hutchison, a
Mr. Faulknier, of New York, Mr. George B.
Welsh, un Eugllsh lady, Mrs. Parks, and the
Baron du Concclcao (F.J. Figueira), whoso wife
is a l'hiladclphian. Tho day "previous to the de
parture of the vessel from Funchal these per
sons, with a number of ladies, honored an im
promptu entertainment given on board by tho
ofliccrs, in acknowledgment of the hospitalities
extended to them. On the passage from Ma
deira to Bahia the Lancaster passed within a
rulle of a "Vigla,'' located on tho charts in lat.
11 dcg. 55 inin. N., loug. 27 deg. 15 min. W.,
without seeing it, and experienced the S. E.
trades well to tho southward of e ist in their
direction. On December 8 Louis Brandon, a
seaman, from Bath, Knirlnndns instantly killed
by a tail from the malnlopgallant yard while
furling the sail, and was buried at sea on the
following dav in lat. 4 deg. 0 mlu. N., lonj;'. 2i

WOMAN'S RIGHTS.
A White Woman Shoots a Nfltrn itlnn In Court
An unusual affair occurred in the Circuit Court
of Louisville on Wednesday last, The trial of
Jack Johnson, for rape, had just been concluded,
and the prisoner discharged on motion of tho
Commonwealth's attorney, Mrs. Louisa Henry,
the chief witness, having" failed to testify In snuh
a manner as to fusten the crlmo upon her
ravlsher, though there was little doubt of his
guilt. Mrs. lienry had gono into tho witness'
room to claim her attendance feo, when the
negro came in und laughed in her face. She Im
mediately drew a pistol from under her upron,
and, pushing it square in hi face, fired. Tho
negro anticipated her just In time to dodge, but
the powder burned his face, and tho back made
a little round hole iu his bushy wool. The
affnir created a momentary panic in the court
room, but the excitement was soon quelled by
the sheriffs. The lady was Immediately arrested
by Officer Hlnes, who was In the room at the
time, and prevented her from llrlugagaln, which
sho was hastily making preparations to do. Tho
negro was badly frightened, and allirmod that
he had swallowed the ball. It was afterwards
found, however, buried deep in tho door-facing,
about eight feet ubovc tho floor. Ho made a
narrow escape from death. Mrs. Henry was
presented to tho court for contempt, but the
members of the bar arose to a mau and asked
that Bhe be discharged. Under the cirenmstanees
of tho case Judge Bruco let her go, but she was
immediately put under arrest for shooting with
intent to ki'll. fcihe gave bail, and was reloaded
without going to jail. Her bmband was present,
and seemed to be proud of tho heroism which
his wife had displayed.
telegraphic strikes.
A ItrininlMcrnre or tho Hebe Won.
The recent strike of tho telegraph operators
all over the country, which has just ended by
tho telegraphers agreeing to return to their
work, has recalled to mind tho llrst and only
previous striko of operators In this country. It
occurred in the Southern Confederacy, and ended
most lngloriously for tho oporators.
In the fall of 183 tho operators in the employ
of the Southern Telegraph Company, which ex
tended from llichhiond to Mobile, were paid $500
per mouth in Confederate money. Board cost
94U0 per month, a pair of Loots 200, a suit of
clothes 4700, and other articles in proportion;
and the operators, even with tho strictest eco
nomy, were unable to live comfortably. - A pro
tective league was organized, and they resolved
to Btrike for an Increase of salaries. At that
time operators were exempted from tho action
of the conscript law by a tecial act of Con
gress; and, us their ocrvlccs as operators
uw ht'j'vraUvc'j" WC&wrj u
ment, they wero confident ot obtaining
an easy victory. By some means,
the Intentions ot tho strikers wero niide
known to tho managers of the company. Tho
clause exempting operators from military duty
was repealed, nnd on the day that the strike was
announced, in fact, almost at tho very moment,
a sqnnd of soldiers entered each oftlce on the
line, captured the telegraphers under authority
of tho conscript law, and eworo them Into tho
service. They were Immediately detailed for
special duty ns operators at private soldiers' pay
$17 per month and ono ration per day Of eour
corn meal and musty bacon. They, of course,
yielded nt once, but tho managers wero Inex
orable, and they were compelled to servo a high
privates for several months.

There Is a fair demand for money in our mar
ket to-day, but the supply of currency is so far
in excess of business and speculative wants that
borrowers can generally command their own
terms. The samo plethora of national bank
currency Is noted in New York, where this form
of money is readily accessible with any kind of
credit at 5 per cent. It is also stated that some
of tho New York banks arc offering it on short
call free of interest, In order to get rid of it. If
this plethora should continue until Mr. Sumner
succeeds in nearly doubling this species of
money, we shall have fine times, no doubt.
Tho rates to-day are about 5rfi;( per cent, on
good collaterals, nnd discount? 8fo0 per cent.,
with exceptional rates for paper of thirty days,
with double endorsements.

AITALLIXU SPECTACLE.
l'hilndrtphla Tnkrn by Htorin The Champion
ol YVoinrn's Klghln In Line t.oraeou Uln
piny The Whys and Wherefores of the
Npt-rtnclp.
This morning the citizens of that portion of
our city in the neighborhood of Cucsnit street
wero fairly taken by storm aud perfectly
astounded by a gorgeous display, iu nature and
extent far surpassing anything which has been
viewed in these parts for years. At about 11
o'clock a procession of tho woman rlghtors,
their friends and accompaulmcnts, in loose
undress uniform, passed over a short route, em
bracing the principal thoroughfares of the city.
No notices having been published beforohaud,
the store-keepers along tho lino of march wero
totally unprepared for such an event, and con
sequently the display of bunting and bright
colors was rather meagre.
The first intelligence which we obtained of the
procession was from shouts of "Here they
come!" from small boys om picket duty on the
tops of lamp-posts and telegraph poles. Hurry
ing to the front, the procession was discovered
passing up Chcsnut street in the neighborhood
of Tub Evening Tei.eohai'H Olticc. On pass
ing Third street the strangers, for i 'i they
were, stopped to gaze upon the afoi ews
pnper building, and meditated a oil U tho
establishment, but the sudden slamming of tho
otlice door at about that time changed their in
tentions. On inquiry It was ascertained that the lino
was formed of members of a medical college at
Florence, who hid just arrived at Walnut street
wharf, and were on their way to visit and attend
a clinic at the Philadelphia University of Medi
cine, on Niuth street, below Locust. Tho cause
assigned for tho absence of all music, brass
bands, or drum corps from tho procession, was
that tho musicians wero all too much used up
with the inauguration ceremonies this week at
Ilarrlsbnrg, and were too tired to attend to any
more cngngemeuts until after Sunday.
The uniform of the participants was peculiar.
The members of tho female persuasion wore
breeches of some thin sort cf material, of fash
ionable shape, i. c, wide at the top and narrow
at the bottom. A short cloak was also worn,
buttoned tight up to the chiu, and falling in un
graceful unfoldings to a littio bciow tho waist.
Short hair and hats wero tho fashion. To a
looker-on the general make-up gave an appear
ance of hoops or crinoline worn around the neck
in place of the waist, us if tho wearer had acci
dentally slipped through a little too far. The
men, on the contrary, wore long hair and had
(haven faces. It was thought that several red
and yellow feathers were noticed stuck through
the men's hat-bands. There were In all some
thirty couples. In marching up Chesnut street
on the sidewalk, it was noticed that where a
man and a woman composed tho samo couple,
the woman invariably took tho outsido or tho
gntter side of tho pavement.
On passing tho Mayor's oftlce, the oflicors and
employes on duty at the corner were for the
time being perfectly dumbfounded by the sight.
They were undecided whether they had any
thing to fear from tho advancing host or not.
The great crowd of spectators by which the pro
cession was accompanied added greatly to their
wonder, and some feared that a riot was in
progress; that some brave citizen had fomented
a disturbance, so that the rights cf citizens
might be attended to, or that tho police force
should be entirely remodeled, or that the streets
should be cleaned, 'or that robbers and mur
derers should bo more severely punished. Some
of the oilicers were observed to slide out the
back door and make for Walnut street; others
went tip stairs to consult tho Mayor. When
these latter reappeared on the street with his
Honor, the whole crowd bad passed on.
On reaching Ninth street the bead of the
procession turned to the left, and proceeded
down Ninth to tho Philadelphia Medical Col
lege, below Locust street. In front of this build
ing tue procession naited, and an envoy was
sent to reconnoitre ana demand admittance pre
vions to taking tho place by storm. The autho
rities deeming a peaceful policy most advisable,
opened their dotys and received the conquerors.
After they had all been swallowed up In the
capacious openings, our reporter proeooded to
interview the several heads of tho college, and
elicited the following information, which was
most readily and politely given by thoio in
charge:
The anomalous specimens which had just
reached the building were students of a medical
college lor both sexes, at rlorcnce. New Jersey,
who by permission after application had como
to the city to attend a clinic ana see the slsrhts
generally. The medical doctrines taught at this
college are somewhat eclectic. All drug medi
cines are abhorred, aud sleep, light, clothing,
electricity, magnetism, and the Ilka are relied
upon as tho sole curative asrents. The lady pro
fessors and most of the pupils wear tho peculiar
dress, but some have not yet attained to that
point oi lemaie excellence, une or two sucn
were noticed in the Hue of tho procession accom
panying tncir weaker sisters, uotn male and
female pupils attend the same college, aro in the
samo building aud class-rooms, and together
listen to tue samo lectures.
After being admitted to the college the speci
mens, Dotn umie ana iomaie, proceeded to ex
airilfia tli ran 1 1 v voliinhlA miisAmn r,f Hui nnl lm,n
which they did arm In arm. Hero all sorts of
curiosities, both human and otherwise, are dis
played, ana tue visitors were mucu pleased with
the sights, and passed remarks upon all of them
without the slightest hesitation. We sincerely
hope tho faculty of the Philadelphia University
do not entertain any ideas of entrapping tho
living specimens into their glass cases for the
instruction ana warnine ot future visitors.
The college clinic which took place from 13 to
2 to-day was witnessed by the whole force. ' We
do not supposo thoro was any trouble among the
gentlemen students wno regularly attend ine
clinic, from the fact that the ladies who were
their fellows for the time being so near ap
proached in character and dross to tho nature
of men that no ono could tell tho difference.
Without being offensively personal, wo can say
that tho personal beauty of the ladies is not
such as would cause a suspension of the class
business, by reason of flirtations or love affalra
between them and the gentlemen. Another dis
play will be made by the same parties this after
noon on taking up the line of march for homo.
