CHIEF JUSTICE CHASE.
Ills View, on the Democrat! "New De
parture" Mr. Chase Support It The
Republican Party Cannot Restore Amity.
Cincinnati, June 23. Mr. Chase is greatly
changed in appearance. Ills figure is still tall,
erect, and commanding, but he has grown so
thin that his clothes seem to hang loosely upon
him. They look as if they had been made for
another man. His large, expressive eyes are
sunken in his head, and, with his heavy, shaggy
eyebrows, he reminds yon of Daniel Webster
in his riper years. There is a visible nervous
ness of manner about the Chief Justice which
makes you leel anything but comfortable in his
presence, and yet when he talks he seems quite
ftt C&86.
"Then you think some of the Republicans will
join the 'new departure' movement?"
"Well, yes; I think they will. It looks to me like
the nucleus of a new party. There are a great many
people who are dlssatlsQed with both parties. They
are anxious (or a different order ot things. The
war Is over and the people want peace. Tne Re-
Subllcan party, or at least some or its leaders, seem
ent upon perpetuating the memories of the war
and thus keeping alive the feeling of hatred and
sectionalism which engendered it. This Is destruc
tive of the best interests of both sections. Some of
the Democrats, oh the other hand, refuse to accept
the results of the war, but I don't believe their num
bers are formidable at all."
"It seems Jeff Davis. Aleck Stephens, Bob Teombs,
and a few men of that class in the South, are unwil
ling to accept the situation."
At first the Chief Justice made no reply to this
statement, but after awhile he said :
"Davis has been aottng very foolishly of late in
making speeches. I rather think he has been mis
represented to some extent by the reporters, but he
would have done better to have pursued the course
he did at first and have refused to make speeches.
Davis, Stephens, and Toomba represent but a smaU
class of the Southern people. I believe the masses
of them accept the results of the war in good faith.
You see some of the most Influential of the Southern
sewspapers repudiate the utterances of these men."
'W hat effect will the 'new departure' movement
have upon the election of President in 1873?"
"I should think it would have a very great influ
ence upon that election. A great deal, of course,
depends upon the candidates and the platforms. If
the Democrats nominate a good man, who will com
mand the popular contldence, and place him upon
the 'new departure' platform, he will, I think, stand
a good chance of being elected. There 1b a great
deal ol dissatisfaction with the Republican party.
Many people who are anxious for peace believe that
we cannot have peace between the North and the
South while the Republican party remain In power.
Before the harmony between the two sections Is re
stored there must be general amnesty proclaimed.
Now, while there are a number of prominent men
in the Republican party men like Greeley and
Butler who favor general amnesty, the mass of the
leaders of the party are against it. Yon remember
last winter how Congress refused to pass an am
nesty bill?"
"The Republicans seem to be concentrating upon
Grant as their candidate ; what will the Democrats
do?"
"I donl know. There are a number of good men
whose names have been mentioned, any one of
whom wonld make an able President. I suppose
the Republicans will renominate Grant. They don't
seem to have any great number of available candi
dates." '
i "They think Grant Is their strongest man."
Well, so he Is, I suppose; and yet I understand
there is considerable opposition among some of the
Republicans to bis renomlnatlon."
"The Republicans lay a great deal of stress npon
the fact that be has collected the revenue, paid off
the debt, and settled the Alabama question.''
"The Secretary of the Treasury, I think, deserves
quite as much credit for collecting the revenue and
paying off the debt as the President. Governor Bout
well has been very fortunate -in his management of
the Treasury. Bat after all it is the people who pay
off the debt. They would do It as readily with any
other man in the White House as General Grant.
To be sure.lhls friends give him the credit of It, but
the people deserve the praise."
The Chief Justice went on to speak of the political
campaign in this State, and expressed the highest
Opinion of both the candidates. JV. Y. Herald, Cor.
THE POPE'S ENCYCLICAL LETTER.
On the Oecastton of Ills Jubilee.
The following Is the last encyclical letter that has
been published by the Holy rather:
Our Holy Lord, Plus IX, Pope by Divine Providence,
to all the Patriarchs, Archbishops, Bishops and
others having grace and communion with the
Apostolic See :
Venerable Brethrem Greetings and Apostolic
benediction!
The biessimrs of God move us to celebrate the
glory of Ills majesty and Ills goodness in manifest
ing Uls protection over us. Already we see the
commencement of the twenty-fifth year since we
received, by dispensation ef God, the ministry of the
Apostolic bee, the uiais ana miseries oi wuicuare
so well known to you that we need not explain them
at length. Verily, may it be adduced, my venerable
brethren, from the series of so many events, that
the Church wends her way through numerous com
bats and through victories. Verily, God does alle
viate and govern the vicissitudes oi imngs in mis
world, which is the footstool to His throne. Verily.
lie does oiten make use of Instruments In them
selves detestable in order to carry out tne aecrees
of Ills wlsdem.
Be who ever lives ana reigns in this seat of Rome
Jesus Christ our Lord, Author and Guide of the
Church, which He has sealed with Ills blood has
deigned to direct and sustain by His grace and
virtue our infirmity and feebleness for the greater
glory of His name and the greater benefit of Ills
people.
Thus, relying npon Ills divine aid, and availing
ourselves of the counsels of our venerable brethren,
the Cardinals of the Holy Roman Church, and of
your counsels also, venerable brethren, who have
come at different times to Rome to assist ua collec
tively and to enrich this seat of truth with the splen
dors of your virtue and piety, nave we Deen auie 10
proclaim in the course of this pontificate according
to our desire and that of the Catholic world the
dosma of the Immaculate Conception of the Virgin
Mother of God, and to render honors to several
heroes of our religion. We doubt not that their
aasUtance, chiefly that of the Holy Mother, will not
fall the Catholic Church in these tempestuous times.
By the help and for the glory of Uod and by means
Of the laborers of the Gospel, we have been able to
spread the light of the true faith in remote and ln
hiiiijible regions, to constitute In several nlaces
the ecclesiastical hierarchy, and te pronounce a
solemn condemnation upon errors that are as con
trary te human reason as they ate to the divine
order of things errors which have acquired great
sower in our lime. It was by divine asaiaiaaee still
that we have taken care to associate by a bond of
concord the ecclesiastical power ana me clvl power
in Hurone and in America, and to devote our solid.
tude to the necessities of the Eastern Church, upon
which, ever since the beginning of our Apostoilo
ministry, we have looked with paternal affection.
It was also our lot to undertake and t pursue the
work of the (Ecumenical council oi tne Vatican,
the Suspension oi wuicn we uavw uau w uccree.
After gathering from It abundant fruits, and ex.
ne.ctinir to Bather more on account of the revolu
tion, which you are well aware of, we have never
neglected, my venerable brethren, to accomplish.
by the help of God, what the right and office of
our empire demanded of us. The applause
and congratulations which, as you re
member, greeted the beginning of
our Pontificate, were soon turned into Insults
and attacks, uatil at last we had to go forth as an
txiit Iroia oar well-beloved city. But as soon as we
were re-established In our Pontlflcal seat by the
cnml lned efforts and the arms of the Catholic
peoples and princes, we directed ear seal aid all
oar energies toward the establishment of a
solid (not fallacious) prosperity that we owe our
subjects a matter which we have always re
cognized as the most important business of
our secular sovereignty. lint the temporal
cupidity of a neighboring potentate led him te desire
the possession ei countries living under oar sway,
lie obstinately preferred the counsels of sects
doomed to perdltiom-to our repeated admonitions
and paternal words,' and surpassing by far the inso
lence of that proAlgal child whom the Gospel
speaks of, he has attacked by force this city, which
belongs to us, and wtilch be claimed, and now re
tains in his power against all justice, as a preperty
which is none of his. We cannot help being moved
at this criminal usurpation. We are full of anxiety,
as we also knew where these counsels do tend, vis.;
To destroy our temporal sovereignty, and at the
same time, If such a thing were possible, to efface
from the face of the earth our spiritual power and
the reign of Christ. We are full of anxiety at the
view of such great misfortunes misfortunes that
threaten the eternal salvation of our people. And
in all this bliterneas nothing grieves ns more than
in our Inability to remedy these great evils. To
these causes of out sorrow Is added yet this long
and pitiful series of calamities and misfortunes that
have fallen and brought to much grief npon the very
generous nation ot France. Yon can readily Imagine
what our sentiments must have been when these
misfortunes filled the whole world with fear and
horror, aggravated as they were by enormities
hitherto unknown, among others by the Indignities
and the parricide mulcted upon our very venerablo
brother the Archslshop of Paris.
We have, my venerable brethren, still another
cause, and a greater one, for grief, when we see
that so many rebellions sons, bound to us by so many
ties of allegiance, persist in disregarding our pater
Dai voice and their own salvation, throwing away
the time which God yet offers them for repentance,
and preferring to Incur the anger of divine retribu
tion rather thaa to avail themselves in time of the
fruits of mercy.
Protected by all-merciful God, we Bhall shortly
arrive at that anniversary of our elevation to the
Pontlflcal throae to which we succeeded the ever
blessed Peter, and npon which, though vastly Infe
rior to him In merit, we have equalled the years of
his apostolic service. This is, certainly, a new and
extraordinary gift of Divine munificence a gift
which. In the long line of Popes (our predecessors
througbout nineteen centuries), has, by a dispensa
tion of God, been only accorded to ourselves alone.
In this we recegnlze a still greater mark of His di
vine benevolence towards us when we consider that
we have In these times been deemed worthy to suffer
persecutions for justice's sake, and when we see
these beautiful sentiments ef love and devotion by
which the Christian people ot the whole earth are
attracted towards the Holy fee.
Now that these great gilts, so Ill-merited, have
been bestowed upon us, we do not feel strengtn
enough to acquit ourselves of the duty of rendering
thanks for tkera as we onght to do. We therefore
beseech the Holy Virgin Mother of God to teach ns
how to render glory to the Most High in the same
spirit as she did when pronouncing these sublime
words, "run Almighty has dons great things for
me." And we beseech you also, venerable brethren,
in uniBon with your flocks, to render thanks to God
by hymns ef praise and songs of thanksgiving. As
for ourselves, now that we can justly say, in the
words of the royal prophet, that "our exile pro
longs," we need your prayers, In order to acquire
force and confidence and to render our soul to the
Prince of Pastors, in whose bosom alone can be fonnd
consolation for the Ills of this troubled life and
the slessett haven of peaee and eternal tranquillity.
But in order that the glory of God should profit by
the bleselrgs which Ills bounttfulness has bestowed
npen our Pontificate, we empower each of you,
venerable brethren, to give the Papal blessing, with
absolution, in the ordinary form of the Catholic
Church, nnd with our apostolic authority, on the
icth and 2ist of this month, or any other day at
your choice.
Desirli.g to watch over the spiritual welfare of the
faithful, we grant, in the Lord, by these presents,
mat ail unrisuans oi Dotn sexes, in wnatever dio
cese tliey may be, who have made confession, en
tered iito the holy communion, and have addressed
to God pious prayers for the concord of Christian
prlncei, the extirpation of heresy, and the exalta
tion Of our boly mother Church, shauld obtain abso
lution of all their sins.
In the meantime, venerable brethren, we lmclore
for yeu of God Almighty constancy, celestial hope,
ana every consolation, in token or wnicn ana as a
token of our beBevolence we desire that you receive
the apostolic benediction which we accord from the

AN AWFUL TRAGEDY.
A School Teacher Shot Dead Among Her

A letter from Lagrange. Ind.. nnder date of June

and asked her to walk with him, as he wished to
speak to her privately. She consented, and they
went a short distance, and sat down on a
log and conversed a few minutes, when
Barnes waa seen to rise, draw a revolver from
his nocket. and fire twe shots at her. She fell
at the first fire. He then presented the pta-
tel at his own bead, ana urea several times, two
children ran frightened to a neighbor near by, who
ran Immediately to the snot, found Miss Dwight
dead, and the young man reloading his pistol. He

as to the seriousness of his wounds.
Great excitement prevails in the vicinity of the
homicide. The nelghbors.were prepared to lulsh the
work the young man attempted on himself, but Mr.

a good character. His father is a farmer In Elkhart

A GCILTI CONSCIENCE.
A Self- Accused Murderer Olres Himself Up
About 0 o'clock last evening, says the Chi
cago Post of the 23d Inst, Policeman McGovern,
who was on duty on Randolph street, was ac
costed by a young man who wanted the officer
to take him to the station house. The police
man expressing surprise, asked why be desired
to be arrested, and was met with the reply,
because i am murderer.
The officer begac to have visions of a large
reward NathaB. Tvndale. etc., flashed across
his mind, bnt the flash was very evanescent,
for the stranger Immediately commenced an ex
planation for his request, to the effect that his
name was C. O. Jacobs. Something more than
eight months ago he left his mother's house
sear Leonda, St. Joseph's county, Michigan, for
Texas, where he entered into the cattle trade.
On his way down the river he left his wife, a
handsome young woman, at St. Louis. lie
settled on a ranche near Bryan, Texas, where
be became enamored of a young Mexican
woman whose name was Miranda Ignatlo.
forgetting bis love for ma young wife
and their little child, he became so
infatuated with this Mexican beanty that
be could not bear her to speak to any one else.
Among her other acquaintances, however, was
a wealthy stock-raiser named Weathersby. One
evening Jacobs and Mr. Weathersby met at
Miranda's house, and a few moments later they
were engaged in a deadly quarrel about the
wicked woman. She heard their threatening
words, bnt did not try to Interfere: she only
urged them on the more, seemingly determined
to have one or the other fall for her sake. A
moment later and their revolvers were drawn
and aimed at each other. Several shots were
exchanged without effect, until finally Jacobs,
in Belf-defense, was compelled to shoot his an
tagonist dead. This was on the 2d of last May.
The deed created great excitement in the coun
try, and efforts were made to arrest the mur
derer, but without effect.
He stated that ever since the committal of the
deed he had keen without peace of mind, that
life was a misery to him. He claimed to be a
nephew of Mr. . Jacobs, a State street pawn
broker, and he says that bis mother is very
wealthy. He is about M years old, good look
ing, and is of about the medium size.
. The officer, after hearing this recital, con
veyed the man to the Armor', where he was
confined in a strong cell. Measures were taken
this morning to ascertain the truth or falsity ot,
his story.
Mr. R. Jacobs, the pawnbroker alluded to
above, visited the prisoner this morning. lie
states that he is not a relative of the self
accused, but knows his family, and also Is
cognizant of the fact that the murder spoken
of was committed. He advised the young man
to be less free with his statements concerning
his guilt.
The following letter was this morning written
by him to his brother-in-law, who resides in St.
Joseph, Mich. :
"Jukk 18, 18T1. My Dear Brother-ln-Law: This

THE CHICAGO TORNADO.
Terrific Thunder-storm Extensive
Dc
Btructlon of Property.
The Chicago Republican of Saturday has the
following:
Between 7 and 8 o'clock last evening Chicago
was visited by one of the severest storms ever
experienced in this vicinity. The rain poured
down in torrents, the wicd blew with almost
the velocity of a hurricane, and the artillery of
heaven caused many timid souls to shrink in
terror, while it brought prayers to lips that
seldom indulged in devotional exercises, it is
asserted and believed that so much rain never
fell before in so short a space of time. The
water ranged from one inch to fh e feet in depth
In the basements ot tho West and North Divi
sions, while the South was not by any means
siigntea.
A tree on the corner of Randolph and Green
streets was struck by lightning and reduced to
splinters. Another tree, opposite the Globe
Theatre suffered the same fate, to the dismav of
many disreputable characters who reside in that
neighborhood, ine horse-car tracks were con
frequently annoyed at delays caused by running
off the track. The injury was of a temporary
nature, and the roads are now in good condi
tion again. 1 rees were uprooted In many places,
and the streets everywhere were perfect rivers.
the sewers being entirely Inadequate to carry
off the water. Rats were driven from their
retreats nnder the walks, and many of the vermin
met untimely ends in the flood. After the storm
the streets were visited by mournful lookiner in
habitants, many ef whom bad suffered loss, and
who took a sort of melancholy Interest In look
ing npon the ruins. The damage in the West
Division cannot be estimated, and will probably
never ue Known, scarcely a nouse escaped in
jury of some kind, while in several instances
the losses will reach thousands of dollars.
The Tremont House suffered heavily. The
rain poured down the chimneys, flooding? the
upper floors, completely soaking the ceilings
below them, and doing considerable injury to
tne uusinesB places on tne nrsi noor.
During the storm the German Lutheran
Church, nearly completed, on the corner of
Twenty-fifth street and Wentworth avenue, was
blown down and totally demolished. It was so
near completion that a school would have been
opened in it on Monday next. The loss to the
society is serious.
Tit tor Tat.
The Wllllamsport Sun says: "The record of
Dr. Stanton, the radical candidate for Auditor
General, civil and military, may be briefly
summed up thus: Surgeon with the rank of
major, promoted to lieutenant-colonel by his
distinguished and affectionate relative, the
Secretary of War, for family reasons. Promoted
in 1471 to the radical nomination for Auditor-
General of the State by his confidential friends.
Quay and Mackev. for personal and private
reasons, which are supposed to have some con
nection wun tne auditing oi tne public ac
counts."
Very well. Now from the false light thus shed
oy ine wiiiiamsport aun on colonel Stanton,
whose military and civil record Is as creditable
as that of any man who entered the ' army to
serve bis country and who pursues a professional
career in the confidence of his fellow-citizens,
let us iook at tne sombre glare in which Mc
Candles stands. He entered the army for per
sonal glorification, and left it when his country
most needed bis services, at the dictation of
a demagogue like William B. Heed, who
gave his private fortune to Invest in Rebel
bonds, and thus made a bankrupt of himself.
When offered honorable promotion McCandless
scorned it, because, as he declared, the duty ot
tue citizen was at home. Ills civil career Is
most distinguished as the advocate of a measure
to make a monopoly of the beef trade In Phila
delphia, by which farmers were to be subiected
to harassing peculation and consumers of beef
made to pay two prices for It.
How do yon like the contrast, Mr. Sun I

11IE POLAR EXPEDITION.
Captain Hall's Instruct lous from Secre
tary Robeson Memoranda by the Smith
sonian Institute.
The Secretary of the Navy, in giving his final
detailed instructions to Captain II all with re
ference to the expedition of the steamer Polaris
towards the North Pole, has minutely prescribed
the necessary arrangements for furnishing the
expedition with additional supplies at specified
points, named the island of Disco as
the first rendezvous 'for this purpose,
provided for many possible contingencies
of disaster or disagreement between mem
bers of the expedition, and required that every
qualified person accompanying the expedition
shall keep a daily journal of its. progress and of
all his observations, and that after passing Cape
Dudley Dlgges Shore, shall be frequently thrown
overboard small copper cylinders, sealed and
containing memoranda, which may be carried
back by the ocean currents, and be ultimately
nicked ud and sent to the Navy Office for in
formation as to the welfare of the explorers.
The appropriation for tnis expedition having
been granted by Congress chiefly on account of
the representations of Captain Hall and his
friends as to the possibility of exploring the
regions beyond the eightieth degree of north
latitude, and even of reaching the Pole, he was
of course appointed the commander of the expe
dition, and entrusted with its organization and
the selection of his assistants. The expedition
is not regarded as strictly of a scientific charac
ter, its main object being simply geographical
discoveries.
Though science Is thus made subordinate, the
expedition has received through the National
Academy ef Sciences a most complete outfit of
apparatus and such a number of skilled ob
servers that, no doubt, even if the mala object
should be defeated entirely, there will still be
made verv large additions to the present store of
physical knowledge.
The Instructions for the scientific observations
were drawn up by a committee ot the members
of the academy, as follows: Prof. Henry, on
meteorology; Prof. Newcomb, on astronomy;
Prof. Higlard, on magnetism and tides; Prof.
Baird, on natural history; Prof. Meek, on geol
ogy; Prof. Agassiz, on glaciers. When practi
cable, four astronomical observations are to be
made each day morning and evening, the
altitude or zenith distance of the sun, for time;
and at noon and midnight for latitude.
As the long winter will afford ample leisure,
the transits of the circumpolar stars will be fre
quently observed; the variations of the magne
tic needle will be studied, and pendulum ex
periments will be made to determine the force
of gravity in comparison with that at Washing
ton. The following list of topics, however,
indicates sufficiently the range of the Inquiries
generally: Ocean Physics Depths; bottom,
temperature, tides, currents, density. Meteorelr
ogy Temperatures, moisture, direction of winds,
'pressure ot air, precipitation, clouds, anrora
borealis, electricity, optical phenomena, me
teors, ozone, conduction of sound, evaporation,
melting point of mercury; Natural History
Zoology, botany (specimens to be collected
wherever practicable, bnt the members of the
expedition to be permitted npon their return to
retain none whatever for private purposes;)
Geology All exposures of rocks, especially of
limestone, to be carefully examined lor fossils,
all evidences of elevation or sinking of coasts
to be noted, etc.; 67 lacier 8 Especial attention
to be given to glacial phenomena of every kind,
such as the formation, size, movements,
etc., of those existing, their abrading and
other effects npon the subjacent rocks, forma
tion of morains, formation and movement of
Icebergs. Dr. E. Bessels, of Heidelberg, Ger
many, who was scientific director of the German
expedition to Nova Zembla in 1869, is appointed
to the same position In the Polaris expedition.
The vessel is provisioned and equipped for two
and a half years, but the Secretary instructs
Captain Hall tnat tne explorations may be con
tinued longer, if requisite, aid if Bupplies can
be obtained.
