THE DAILY EVENING TELEGRAPH PHILADELPHIA, WEDNfcrOAf, MAY 10, 181. DETOUREP BY SHIRKS. Tragic Death fa Murderer. Recently man named Grant committed a murder at Demarara, W. I., whence he escaped to Halifax, N. 8., where he wi arrested and put on board a vessel to be returned to Demarara for trial. On arriving in sight of his destination the prisoner Jumped overboard, and was immedi ately seized and devoured by sharks. The Halifax Citizen gives the following particulars: "On the passage, although closely watched, lie on one occasion obtained possession of a knife, with which he attempted to open his cabin window in the night; but the attempt was discovered and frustrated. On the morn lag of the arrival, when the vessel was within four miles of the lightship, he feigned an ex cuse to go on deck. Mr. Joseph sent Christian with him, and gave the officer strict Injunctions to keep a firm bold of him. From the testimony the seaman Christian seems to have en deavored faithfully to fulfil his Instructions, but was thrown oft his guard by a sudden re quest from Grant that he would do him a trl fliDg service, and relaxed his hold for a mo ment, when Grant, with a yell of exultation, instantly leaped overboard. The vessel wa put about as quickly as possible, but to no purpose, for the lookout man soon cried, 'Shark's got him,' and poiuted to the spot where he had Been Grant disappear, and where the water was tinged with blood. The vessel continued to sail around the spot for an hour, without dis covering any other trace of the miserable man." MUSICAL AND DRAM ATI C. The City Amusements. At thh Acadkmt. or Music the splendors of The Black Crook will only be visible for nine nights more, as the building has been engaged for other purposes. This spectacle has achieved a brilliant success from the fact that no pains or expense has been spared to make it as complete and decant as possible. It Is not a mere revival of the entertainment given under the title of The Black Crook in this city a few seasons ago, for. while the drama itself Is the same, all the scenery, costumes, and accessories are new, aud are far superior to anything ever seen here before. Independently of the magnificent ecenlc attractions, a great variety of amusing features are introduced, and with the fine ballet troune. the erotescme performances or the .m' jlltons, the funny capers of the skaters, and other incidentals, there is abundant entertain znent provided. The great transformation scene is a marvel of beauty, and is Itself worth the price of admission to behold. At tuk Chbsnct the comedy of Saratoga, which continues to enjoy in a remarkable de gree the favor of the public, will be repented this evening, bast night ana on Monday the house was crowded, and the piece was an plauded in the heartiest manner. We reoord the success of this play with great pleasure, for while it does not mini an the conditions ot true American comedy, it Is a step in the right direction, ana it proves mat tne puuuc are prepared to patronize American plays, and especially plays representative - of contemporary Americau life, if they are well written. Mr. Howard Is undoubtedly capable of better things than Saratoga, but be has pos sibly been wise in endeavoring to produce a successful piece at bis first attempt rather than, Dy aiming too nign, to overshoot the mars Saratoga is abundantly entertaining, and 1 looks as If it were llkelv to have as long a run in this city as it did in New York, where it was tne great nit or tne season. At the Walnut the drama of East Lynne will be represented this evening with Mrs, Bowers as "Lady Isabel" and "Madame Vine At the Arch Mr. John Brougham will this evening personate "Corydon Foxglove," in his new comedy of Flies in the Web. The perform ance wiu conclude with the larce ot A. Thump inq Legacy. At the American a variety of attractions Including the Japanese troupe of acrobats and and jugglers, win be presented this evening. At the Museum, Ninth and Arch streets, a matinee performance of Uncle Tom's Cabin will be given to-day. This evening, Mr. Robert Mcv ade will per sonate "Jtiip van w lome. ' Case of Rev. C. K. Cheney. The following remarks upon Mr. Cheney's recent letter to the Episcopalian appear in the Chicago Times of April 27: The Rev. Charles Edward Cheney may be the most conscientous ot an living divine?; never theless, as an ecclesiastical lawyer, he is one of the worst possible description. His recent let ter, defending his refusal to recognize the eccle eiastical authority of his own Church, is a model ot the most barefaced sophistry that ever pro ceeded from one who insists upon squaring the government of the world to his own peculiar notions of what it ought to be. While professing scrupulous loyalty to the constitution, canons, rubrics, and all other laws of the Episcopal vnurcn, Mr. uneney assumes mat, ior himseii, in his ministerial relation to the Church, he Is the authorized Interpreter and judge of the meaning and Intent of those laws. Ills duty to abide by and obey the ecclesiastical authority of the Church goes no further than the decisions of that authority coincide with bis own under standing of the law. This Is the whole ground of his defense. This is his whole argument, reduced to a single point. Upon this ground alone he finds the "logical result" to be that the whole proceeding of the ecclesiastical tribunal which lound him guilty of violating the eccle eiasucai law "is nun ana void. It Is as if a defendant convicted in one of the civil courts for some violation of the statute aw should say: "That which the court decided to be the law, I do most conscientiously decide js not the law; what, then, inevitably follows but the logical result that the whole proceeding .against me is nun ana voia t The Times can hardly suppose that ecclesi astical Institutions rest upon a basis so unsub stantial as Mr. Cheney's logic would imply. In that case, every minister of the Gospel would be the supreme head ot bis own church, H.very aeacon would be his own presoyter, and every presDjier nis own bishop. Ana every layman upon the same reasoning (or. rather unreason ing), would be his own ecclesiastical superior. Every member of a religious organization would be his own judge and court of tlaal jurisdiction upon every question of ecclesiastical law that could arise; for the decision of any tribunal which should be averse to bis own understand ing of the law and evidence would, "as a logical result," be null aud void. The object of every court - ecclesiastical as well as civil is twofold. It is, first, to declare what the law Is; next, it is to render judgment upen the law as declared. If the power or the right to determine what the law is belonged to the party accused, it would be a self-evident absurdity to place the power of giving judgment elsewhere. Ihe two are inseparable, lu the nature of things. It Mr. Cheney is the competent authority to declare what the eccle siastical law is, or Is not, then Mr. Cheuey I correct In assuming to decide that the proceed ing of the ecclesiastical tribunal Is null and void. But if the ecclesiastical tribunals of the Church are the authorized power to declare what the ecclesiastical law is (and the Supreme Court of the Stats has so decided), then Mr. Cheney stands clearly In the wrong, and the reaaoniDg of bis letter to the Philadelphia Epis . copalian is sheer nonsense.
