"I have brought you my Poems inthe
original autographs, sir," said Mr. Gifted
Hopkins.
Bo laid the manuscript on the table, caress
ing the leaves still wits one hand, as loath
to let it go.
"What disposition had you thought of
. making of them ?" the .publisher asked, in a
pleasant tone. He was as kind , a man as
lived, though he worked the chief engine.in
Chamber :of torture.
"I wish to read you a few specimen's of the
poems," he. said, - "with reterence to their
proposed publication in a volume."
' "By all means," said the kind publisher,
who determined to be very patient with the
protige of the hitherto little ,known, but re
markable writer,' Professor Gridley. At the
same time be extended his foot in an acciden
tal sort of way and pressed it, on the right
band knob of three which were arranged in
a line beneath the table. A little bell in a
.distant apartment—tile little bell marked 0—
gave one slight note, loud enough to start a
small boy up, who looked at the clock, and
knew that he was to go and call the publisher
in just twenty-five minutes. "A, five min
utes; B, ten minutes; C,twenty-five minutes;"
—that was the small boy's working formula.
XL Hopkins was treatect to the full allow
mace of time, as being introduced by Professor
Gridley.
The youn,g man laid open the manuscript
so that the title-page, written out very hand
somely in his own hand, should win the eye
of the publisher :
BLOSSOMS OF THE SOUL
A WREATH OF VERSE; Original
lIrCIFTED 110PNINs
"A South to Fortune and to Fame unknown."
Gray
"Shall I read you some of the rhymed
pieces first, or some of the blank-verse poems,
sir?" Gifted asked.
"Read what you think is best,—a speci
men of your first-class style of composition."
"I will read you the very last poem I have
written," he said, and he began :
"THE TRIVMPH OF SONO.
"I met that golden-haired maiden, all too dear;
And Ito her: Lo! thou art very fair,
Fairer than all the ladies in the world
That fan the sweetened air with scented fans,
And I am scorched with exceeding love,
Yea, crisped till my bones are dry as straw.
Look not away with that high-arched brow,
But turn its whiteness that I may behold,
And lift thy great eyes till they blaze on mine,
And lay thy finger on thy perfect mouth,
And let thy lucent cars of carven pearl
'Drink in the murmured music of my soul,
As the lush grass drinks in the globCd dew;
For I have many scrolls of sweetest rhyme
I will unroll and make thee glad to hear.
"Then she: 0 shaper of tlic marvelous phrase
That openeth woman's heart as cloth a key,
I dare not hear thee—lest the bolt should slide,
That locks another's heart within my own.
Go, leave me,—and she let her eyelids fall
And the great tears rolled from her large blue
eyes.
"Then I: If thou not hear me, I shall die,
Yea, in my desperate mood may lift my hand
And do myself a hurt no leech can mend;
For poets Aver were ofdark resolve,
And swift, stern deed—
That maiden heard no more,
But spoke: Alas! my heart is very weak,
And but for—Stay! And if some dreadful morn,
After great search and shouting through the
Nyold,
We found thee paissing,—strangled,—drowned
the mere •
Then should —
I go distraught and be clean
mad!
0 poet, read! read all thy wondrous scroll!
Yea, read the verse that maketh glad to hear!
Then I began and read two sweet, brief hours,
And she forgot all love save only mine!"
"Is all this from real life?" asked the pub
lisher.
"It—no, sir—not exactly from real life—that
is, the leading female person is not wholly
fictitious—and the incident is one which might
have happened. Shall I read you the poems
referred to in the one you have just heard,
sir ?"
"Allow me, one moment. Two hours'
reading, I think, you said: I fear I shall
hardly be able to spare quite time to hear
them aIL Let me ask what you intend do
ing with these productions, Mr rr
Popkins ?"
"Hopkins, if you please, sir, not Popkins,"
said Gifted, plaintively. He expressed his
willingness to dispose of the copyright, to
publish on shares, or perhaps to receive a cer
tain percentage on the profits. .4
-"Suppose we take a glass of wine tog,etheri
Mr! -- —Hopkins, before we talk business,"
he publisher said, opening a little cupboard
and taking therefrom a decanter and two
glasses. He saw the young man was look
ing nervous. He waited a few minutes, un
til the wine had comforted his epigastrium,
and diffused its gentle glow through his un
spoiled and consequently susceptible organi
zation.
"Come with me," he said.
Gifted followed him into a dingy apart
ment in the attic, where one sat at a great
table heaped and piled with menu
/scripts. By him was a huge bas
ket, half full of manuscripts also. As
they entered he dropped another manuscript
into the basket and looked up.
"Tell me," said Gifted, "what are these
papers, and who is he that looks upon them
and drops them into the basket ?"
"These are the manuscript poems that we
receive, and the one sitting at the table is
commonly spoken of among us as The
Butcher. The poems he drops into the
basket are those rejected as of no account. '
"But does he not read the poems before he
rejects them ?"
'lle tastes them. Do you cat a cheese
before you buy it ?"
"And what becomes of all these that he
drops into the basket ?"
"If they are not claimed by their author in
proper season they go to the devil."
"Whatrsaid Gifted, with his eyes stretched
very round.
"To the paper factory, where they have a
horrid machine they call the devil, that tears
everything to bits,—as the critics treat our
authors, sometimes,—sometimes, Mr. Hop
kins." '
Gifted devoted a momelt to silent reflec
tion. . .
After this instructive sight they returned
together to the publisher's private room.
The wine bad now warmed the youthful
poet's prtecordia, so that he began to feel a
renewed confidence in his genius and his for
tunes.
"I should like to know what that critic of
yours would say to my manuscript," he said
boldly.
"You can try it, if you want to," the pub
lisher replied, with, an ominous dryness of
manner which the sanguine youth did not
perceive, or, perceiving, did not heed.
"How can we manage to get an impartial
judgment?"
"0, I'll arrange that. He always goes to
his luncheon about this time. Haw meat
and vitriol punch, that's what the authors
say. Wait till we bear him go; and then I
will lay your manuscript so that he will come
to it among the first afterihe gets back. You
Audi see with your oWn eyes what treatment
It gets. I hope it may please him, but you
shall see."
They went back to the.publisher's private
room and talked awhile; When the small
lavi cow , pp vial ramensuf. mews about
a gentleman—business—Wants to , see you,
sir; etc: , , according .to the established ; pre
grainine.r all in a .vacant .mechanical sort of,
way, as if he were, a talking-nisichinq just'
running down:
The publisher told the small boy that he
was engaged, and the gentleman must wait.
Very soon they heard The Butcher's heavy
footstep as be went out to get his raw meat
and vitriol punch.
'Now, then," said the publisher, and led
forth the confiding literary lamb Once more,
to enter the fatal door of the critical sham
bles.
"Hand me your. manuscript, if you please,
Mr. Hopkins ' I, will Aay it so that it shall be
the third of these that:are coming to hand.
Our friend here is It pretty good judge of .
verse, and. knows a merchantable article •
about as quick as' any man in his line of
business. If he forms a favorable opinion
of your poems, we will talk over your propo
sitions.',
Gifted was conscious of every slight tremor
as he saw his precious manuscript deposited
on the table under the others, and over a pile
of similar productions. Still he could not
help feeling that the critic would be struck by
his title. The quotation from Gray must
touch his feelings. The very first piece in
the collection could not fail to arrest him.
He looked a little excited, but he was in good
spirits.
"We will be looking about here when our
friend comes back," the publisher said. "He
is a very methodical person, and will sit
down and go right to work just as if we were
not here. " We can watch him, and if lie
should express any particular interest in your
poems, I will, if you say so, carry you up to
him and reveal the fact that you are the au
thor of the works that please him."
They waited patiently until The Butcher
returned, apparently refreshed by his
ferocious refection, and sat down at his table.
He looked comforted, and not in ill humor.
The publisher and the poet talked in low
tones, as if on business of their own, and
watched him as he returned to his labor.
The Butcher took the first manuscript that
came to hand, read a stanza here and there,
turned over the leaves, turned back and tried
..again,—shook his.head—held it for an instant
over the basket, as if doubtful,—and let it
softly drop;'-: He took — up the second manu
script, opened it in several places, seemed
rather pleased witli what he read, and laid it
aside for further examination.
He took up the third. "Blossoms of the
Soul," etc. He glared at it in a dreadfully
ogreish • way. Both the lookers-on held their
breath. Gifted Hopkins felt as if half a glass
more of that warm sherry would not hurt
him: There was a sinking at the pit of his
stomach,
as if he was in a swing, as high as
he could go, close up to the swallows' nests
and spiders' webs. The Butcher opened the
manuscript at random, read ten seconds, and
save a short, low grunt. He opened again,
read ten seconds, and gave another grunt,this
time a little longer and louder. He opened
once more, read five seconds, and, with some
thing that sounded like the snort of a danger
ous animal, cast it impatiently in the basket,
and took up the manuscript that came next in
order.
Gifted Hopkins stood as if paralyzed for a
moment.
"Safe, perfectly safe," the publisher said to
him in a whisper. "I'll get it, for you pres
ently. Come in and take another glass of
wine," he said, leading him back to his own
office:
"No, I thank you," he said faintly, "Lean
bear At. But this is dreadful,. sir. Is this the
way that genius is welcomed to the world of
letters?"
MAXIMILIAN'S 1100 K.
The Late Emperor's Literary. “Re
mains.”
[From the Pall 31 . 01 Gazette, Anguet 10.1
The first four volumes of these interesting
"Remains," which, it is' said, are being pre
pared for the press at the‘, express desire of
the Emperor of Austria, have now been pub
lished. They contain a description, in the
form of a diary,. of the travels of the then
young Archduke (he was eighteen years old
when he made his first journey) in Italy,
Spain, Portugal,. Greece and Algiers, between
the years 1851 and 1853. The book is full of
the fregh enthusiasm with which • a young
writer of refined tastes expresses his feelings
on first seeing the finest productions of ancient
and modern art, and contains many passages
strongly suggestive of that romantic and
chivalrous character which afterwards led its
unfortunate author to his ruin. In regard to
manly sports, he says • • -
"1 like games in which the original nature
of man is shown.in its full truth better than
the enervating and indecent amusements of
our luxurious modern society. Here it is
bulls that perish; there the spirit and soul
disappear in sentimental frivolity. I- love the
old times. I do not deny it; not the times
when men lived in a cloud of hair powder,
amid wild flowers and maudlin idyls, but
those when the feeling of chivalry was de
veloped in tournaments; when brave women
did not to faint and ask for a scent
bottle on seeing a drop of blood; when men
hunted the wild boar and the bear in the free
forest—not, as now, behind a barrricade.
That strong age brought forth strong child
ren. What has remained to us from the
manly sports of our fathers? It is not hunt
ing, for what we call hunting is to send a
fatal ball from a safe distance at a tamed
bear. There remains only war, which philan
thropists, notwithstanding their thirty years'
efforts,have not yet succeeded in abolishing,
arid two other sports which are still retained •
by two peoples who have not yet sunk into
effeminacy. The first is fox-hunting in
England, in which men expose themselves
to risks that are worthy of them,and shrink
from no obstacle in their efforts to reach the
goal; and though people say it is unnecessary
to endanger one's life for so insignificant an
object, .1 believe that those who shrink from
Unnecessary danger will not find courage
where it is indispensable. The' other sport
to which I allude is the Spanish bullfight,
which is a true national game of the olden
time. It is true that it excites the savage
passions Which are innate in man, but it also
excites the desire to use their strength; and
he who takes an enthusiastic interest in such
„scenes will not want inclination for other
"things, and will at least not perish in apathy.
There is still steadfast and proud chivalry in
the Spanish character, and, notwithstanding
the sport which has descended to them from
their ancestors, the Spaniards are pious and
charitable."
Here is another very characteristic passage.
The author describes an incident which oc
curred during a storm at night on the voyage
from Naples to Leghorn: '
"Scarcely had Ifallen asleep, when the sud
den falling of my bookcase, with all that it
contained, awoke me. The noise, was extra
ordinary; all was dark. I felt my Way . across
the barricade of books and ascended to the
quarter-deck. I must here plead guilty to a
little weakness. I had hidden in my cabin
one of the storm birds which had been caught
the day before yesterday, intending, in my
mania for animals, to keep it and take care of
it. When I heard the storm, however, and
wave after wave rushed over the ship, the
f-uperstition.about the storm bird came to my
mind, and I thought that if the bird remained
on board we should all perish. It seemed to
me as if the animal was the soul of some
drowned sailor, so I fetched it from . my
cabin, covered A with wy pocket handker.

We Will, close this brief notice with one
more extract, which strikingiy-illustrates the
romantic and imaginative.temperament of the
unfortunate prince. He describes his feellnas
on completing the ascent of Vesuvius:
"I was on the edge of the crater,and felt as
if T. were lost. It seemed to me that I was no
longer on the earth, but stood on the frontier
wall of another region. I felt alone in all the
horror of nature, in this silent chaos. A
mysterious shudder came over me; if my
friends had not been present a nameless fear
would have driven me from the:spot. * * *

rush of a waterfall from rock to rock thtin in
duces a belief that the stream ie drawing him
towards it, and if the thunder roars in the
sky and the water rages and the lightning
draws anet of flame around him, how his
heart beats !—how he looks round wildly, as
if each thunderbolt and lightning-flash were
meant for him ! How powerfully, then, must
the sight of Vesuvius impress him, where
only a thin crust 'separates him from the hot
lava—a crust which may crack at any
moment. But when several men come
together, each feels no longer solitary in
presence of Nature, and hurries thoughtlessly
away from the horrid scene."
'Whittling Down a Hotel—Grotesque
4 .171ania. for Relies.
[Alexandria (Vad Correapondenee of St. Louie Democrat.]
We stopped a colored individual and in
quired the way to the place where Colonel
Ellsworth was killed, and were informed that
the "Marshall House" was a square further
on. There we found it, a three-story brick
building, old and dilapidated, aristocratic
enough, Perhaps, for Virginia as it was, and
entirely typical of the old civilization. At
the entrance, sitting upon the wooden steps,
was a tall, hard-looking white man in shirt
sleeves, surrounded by three or four "plain
people" like himself. As an excuse for
entering the house, we inquired the way
to the "bar," and were directed by the
first mentioned individual to pass
through the office, turn to the left and go
down stairs. As we left the office and passed
into the hall, we at once recognized the scene
of the murder, from the pictures we had seen
in the pictorial weeklies at the time of the sad
catastrophe. We found the tall individual in
shirt sleeves to be A. 11. Gheen, the proprie
tor of the hotel, who has been running the
machine since, the spring of I SQ., Mr. Gheen
kindly took us through the whole house, and
showed us various evidences of the recent
civil war. For a long time Mr. Glieen
was excessively annoyed by visitors, nearly
every one of whom wanted something or
other to take away as a relic. He has had
the stairway, bannisters, mouldings, wash
boards, and flooring repaired throughout the
house twice, on account of visitors whittling
awny the wood, to carry off as relics of the
place. Since the last repairing, we were
shown further evidences of this desire to
secure some memorial. Many of the new
bannister rails are whittled away to kite
sticks, and about half the cornice and wash
board have disappeared. Even the steps
have been out into; and in some places pieces
of the plastering, which is believed to have
been rubbed by the shoulder of Ellsworth as
he fell. Mr. Gheen told us he assures people
that that which they take away was recently
placed there, and was never touched by Ells
worth, but it will not satisfy the rapacity of
the relic-seeker.. In a short time, even at the
present rate of whittling, the bannisters and
rails will have to be renewed.
The flag-staff which Ellsworth ordered to
be' cut down is still kept in the house, but the
flag was carried away by the Zouaves. The
floor stained by Ellsworth's blood was cut
away long ago, and that which took its place
was disappearing so rapidly that the landlord
had to be constantly on hand to prevent the
complete disappearance of his house. In
order to save his building, he told us that he
took the remnants of old boards, cornice,
rails and bannisters, and cut them into small
pieces, which he besmeared with beef blood.
Visitors were satisfied with this stuff as long
as it lasted, and the new bannister rails
are now a curious spectacle, suffering
as they do from the attack of
many knives. The room on the
second floor, out of which Jackson stepped
whente shot. Ellsworth, who was descend
ing from the third story, was also shown us,
as was a door, now permanently „closed,
through which Jackson intended to escape if
he had not been prevented by, Sergeant
Brownell. In this room large pieces of plea-.
tering and wood have also been carried off.
.0f late there have not been so many. visitors,
and Mr. Gheen is in hopes that he will be
left to enjoy whatever profit he can reap in
• keeping a first-class loyal hotel, without the
constant intrusion of sight-seers and 'relic
hunters. We took the Milt, and did not
stay jong, nor did we whittle' away any por
tion of the stairway.
Intolerance in Sweden. I
A correspondent writes that religious ex
clusiveness is still-maintained in full force in
Sweden. He says he was himself lately
fined a heavy sum, "for allowing people to
come together for worship in
_liis private
house, during the hours that the Swedish
church held service or mass, as it is yet'
called, and this fine was exacted by the sanc
tion of the King, before whose court the case
was tried." He affirms that "priests assisted
by sheriffs and policemen do yet enter , by
force into people's houses, and by force take
the infants from anguished mothers' arms, to
have them legally baptised; and a case is
known in which a poor farmer's only cow
has been taken in payment.

The Pail Mall Gazette says: "Another,
and this time the most eminent, veteran of
classical philology has gone to his rest. Au

birthday of the founder of the Berlin Univer

remained in Berlin, rising to the highest
oftlees of the learned bodies, of which he was
a distinguished ornament. It is needless to
speak of his merits as a philologist and arch

which, under the various ministries of Prussia
whom he served, oven those of obscurantists
like Eichhorn and Raumer, not to mention

The London 6 1 108 has. the following
"Peter Tait., MayOr:of Limerick, employer
- of' Some one - thousand - hands, - partner, toil; in
the largest drapery house in the city, hastieen
little more than a dozen years in•making . hls
fortune out of three. half-crowns which were
all his wealth when, a' poor Scotch lad, he
took service under the firm of Arnott
Cannock. He began to make money by
Australian shirts.. Then he . got a contract
for militia boots, and he' was rejoicing in his
luck when all his goods were returned
on his hands.. Instantly he wont over to

said : 'There must be some favoritism
here, for I know my things are
good; and quite up .to •sample:' His
friend got the boots re-examined, and the
contract was confirmed. Tait was a made
man. He ran the blockade, too, and sup
plied the South with something very different
from the New York shoddy. He now makes
a great deal for our own army, besides cloth
ing the Irish constabulary, and doing odd jobs
for foreign powers, like that which the Prus
sians gave him the other day. Thus, if he is
not - altogether a manufacturer—for, though
he makes Limerick lace, and uses a good deal
of Irish frieze, the bulk of his cloth is woven
in Leeds—he has at any rate shown that Irish
industry may be, with common care and per
severance, remuneratively diverted into non
agricultural channels. Care and perseverance,
those are rare qualities everywhere; rarer,
people say, and the state of things seems to
prove the assertion, in Ireland than else
where.
"Care and perseverance have made Peter
.Tait the largest employer of labor in Limer

long work room contains oue hundred and
fifty sewing machines, which employ five
hundred work girls. All goes by stoam; so
that the doctorS, who cry out about the evil
effects of the machines in London slop-shops,
can now point out a remedy. The ventilation
is perfect; and the neatness and modest look
of the girls contrast strongly with what
'one sees in Yorkshire or Lancashire mills.
Of course, in other roopis there are
cutting machines which go through twen
ty-four thicknesses of cloth as easily
as you Would cut a piece of cheese, and
pressing-irons heated inside with gas, and
all the most modern adjuncts of a great
clothing establishment. But the main point
is, that these girls, who would else have been
picking up a wretched livelihood by making
a little lace and hawking it about the streets,
get here from eight to ten shillings a week,
and are all so good that when a young woman
of loose Ways of talk gets amonn•. them, they
at once send up a deputation and respectfully

A Paris letter to the London ‘S'tai• notes
among the incidents of the day the reform
which the Austrian band had succeeded in
effecting in the martial music of France. For
the last sixteen years the Parisians have had
no other patriotic air than "POrtant pour la
,Syric," but the other evening, at the Cirque
de l'lmperatrice, the demand for "La Mar
-Beillatae" was so pressing, so violent, that the
Austrian band, yielding to the shrieks of the
people, struck up that splendid, that 'most
warlike of tunes, the melody of which
went ringing , through the house as a
spirit-moving strain, with all its bursts of
rich harmony and its mournful wailings.
Truly the enthusiasm of the public was inde
scribable. Thousands -of people were there
.exulting in the harmony of that long-sup
pressed song, beating time to its rythm, and
shouting in their full-heartedness of admira
tion. The correspondent says ; "I understand
now why the present government dreads
allowing this popular and military air being
played and sung in the streets of Paris or the
towns of France. The effect of it is most
stirring and irresistible. I understand also
why, in the Crimea as well as in Italy;
why, at Malakoff as well as at Solferino;
why, on the barricades as well as on the
battle-field, this national tune, this exciting
ditty, produced such exultation among the
combatants: Of all national sous, of all
marching airs, none has a more "Maddening
effect than 'La MarseillaiB;' none is more
appropriate to awake ideas of slaughttr,of ven
geance, of sabres clashing, bullets flying,
horsemen charging and standards waving.
And dug may perhaps explain why most of
the papers of the opposition now express the
hope that the French authorities, having al
lowed the Austrian band to play that patri
otic tune, the same favor will be granted to
' all musicians in this country."

According to a letter in the Gazetta act
Popolo r of Naples, a wholesale slaughter
has just taken place at Guardia-grele, in Ca
labria. M. Auritti, of the Casino of Guardia,
having been informed that two men were
concealed in a cottage, in the direction of St.
Brase, went with seven National Guards to
surround the building and capture them. The
bandits, however, proved to be fifteen in
number, and after some desultory firing be
tween the two parties, M. Auritti and his
friends bad to fall back to the Casino. They
barricaded themselves in, and then shot at
'the brigands from the windows. The noise of
the firing, however, attracted assistance from
all sides, and M. Auritti at length had a
sufficient force to start in pursuit .of the
enemy, whyhad in the meantime been beaten
of At Tratturo the brigands were overtaken
and two' of them shot. The rest then threw
away their arms and shoes and took to flight..
Three more were, however, shot, and a sixth,
being found naked and concealed beneath a
heap of straw, was killed. The rest succeeded
in escaping. Two of the National Guards re
ceived slight wounds in the hands, and a coun
tryman was shot in the leg, which had to be
amputated. The Inigands ' in flying, also killed
two peasants whom they found at work in the
.fields. The guns thrown away by the bandits
have the papal arms, and the words "Pontifi
cal gendarmerie." One of the men, before
dying, also admitted that' they had come from
Rome.
The Fatuity History of Count
lIILILTC k•
Professor Riedel contributes to the .IPirk
ische ForkBkungen some hitherto unpub
lished particulars of the family history of
Count Bismarck. The Professor traces back
the family annals of the , Biemarcks to the
twelfth century, when it appears a certain
Herhord von Bismarck was appointed alder
man (allnteiBter) of the commercial guild of
Stendal. This office was held by successive
members of the family for two centuries,
during which time they were held in
high repute in the then wealthy
commercial town of Stendal for
their stolid perseverance and business
ability. In 1338 one Rule von Bismarck
was sent by the municipality on a diplomatic
mission, which he fulfilled with great success;
but he afterwards opposed the Bishop of
Halberstadt with such obgtinacy, in a dis
pute which had arisen between the bishop
and the municipality on account of the in
fluence exercised by the former in the town

TENTH WARD REIMBLICAN' MISETiNth
Republicans 'of the Tenth Ward, favorable to the

were the officer's of the meeting:
President—Caleb IL Needles.
Vice Presidents—A. K. DehaVen, first precinct;
W. 11. Morgan, second; J. Kisterboek, third;
Lewis Godbou, fourth; Mr. Walraven, fifth; A.
P. Willis, sixth; Aug. Heaton, seventh; Lewis

Huber, second: Robert Morris, third; C. L. West,
fourthe E Sr Hoover, fifth; Alex. Grieves, sixth;
k'Wright; seventh; W. 11. Grimes, eighth; Jas.
Kirkpatrick, ninth.. ' •
Mr. Needles,. on taking the chair, stated that
the meeting had been called to endorse Mr. Joshua
Spering, the faithful representative of the Tenth
Ward in Select Council. Mr. Spering had repre
sented the Ward for fivd - years with a rare amount
of zeal; fidelity and strict honesty, and he had no
doubt his friends would see that he is renominated
for the office.
Mr. Charles Pryor submitted the following
resolutions which were unanimously adopted:
Resolved, That we, Republican citizens of the
Tenth Ward in mass meeting assembled, hereby
declare our earnest approbation of the past official
course of Joshua Spering, Esq., representative in
Select Council, and that by his honorable, straight
forward and upright conduct he has endeared
himself to his fellow-citizens, won the confidence
and respect of those by whom he was elevated to
the post of honor he now so worthily occupies,
and is eminently deserving of a renomination and
reiqection at our hands.
Resolved, That we view with feelings of just In
dignation the attempt of a political clique to pre
vent the will of the majority being asserted as is
witnessed in the willfully false and malicious
charges, the unscrupulous conduct, the non-com
pliance with the rules. governing the party, evi
denced by the withholding of the registry lists of
the veters of the Union Republican party; and
finally the action of Tuesday evening last, in the
attempt to deprive us °four rights and privileges
according to both custom and the law, which at
tempt in our judgment was an outrage upon and
a direct defiance of the people; all tending to
prove a deliberate determination to stifle by fraud
the voice of a large majority of the Union Repub
lican voters of Tenth Ward.
Resolved, In consequence of the foregoing rea
sons, we call upon the friends of truth and justice,
upon all who are favorable to the recognition of
valauble services, rightfully understood and
thoroughly appreciated, to collie forward and. I
sustain us in our endeavor to rebuke the at
tempted dictation assumed by the few at the sac
rifice of the wishes, rights and interests of the
many, and that we believe that rebuke can be best
administered by the renomination of our present
worthy representative in Select Council, Joshua
Spering, Esq., and with that belief we hereby
pledge ourselves to give him our hearty and un
animous support.
Mr:Geo. Bertram Was next introduced to
the meeting,. Ile stated that he felt it to be his
duty as a citizen of the Ward to assist in defeat-
ing the enemies of Mr. Spering. lie had nothing
to say against Mr. Franehsens, fur he believed
him to i.e a gentleman of integrity; but be (the
speaker) did desire to see a gentleman renomi
nated who had for five years represented the
Tenth Ward with great fidelity and zeal. Though
no complaint is made against Mr. Spering ter
tain parties are attempting to set him aside, and
why? Because lie cannot be moulded to suit
their views. The speaker, In concluSiOn. stated
that though not-personally acquainted with Mr.
Spering, he was familial , wlth all his official acts
in Council, and in no one Instance could he find
that he (Mr. S.) had done anything contrary to
the best interests of the city and the Republican
party. If such men as Mr. Spering are turned
out of Councils how can parties expect to get
honest men to serve them?
Mr. Thomas G. Worrell, the next speaker, en
dorsed all that had been said, and would add that
be knew Mr. Spering to be a man of strict int!.tg
rity.-and-one-that always kept his word, -refusing
at all times to do a mean or unmanly act. The
Tenth Ward had been ably represented in Council
by Mr. Spering, and he should be returned by an
overwhelming majority. The time had arrived
when good men and not political tricksters-should
" not only be kept in place but nominated for the
suffrages of the people.
Mr. Charles Pryor made a short address, dur
ing which he urged those present to assist in the
renomination and election of Mr. Spering, who
bad always proven himself to be honest and ca
pable.
At the close of the meeting those present formed
in procession and marched to the residence of Mr.
Spering. After the band had 'performed several
pieces of music. Mx,"Sperint4 . made his appearance
and returned his thanks in a neat and appropriate
speech.

15:0)111;LE ANONI; Thum icus.—Jatnes
O'Connor, President of the Fourth National Bank
of Pittsburgh, has commenced a suit in this city
against Augustus 11. Tack and Theodore Tack,
trading as Tack Bros. & Co., Fairview Oil Re
finery, and others, to prevent the defendants by
Injunction from prosecuting an action to compel
said O'Connor to fulfill certain contracts for, the
sale of oil, of which O'Connor is the owner, by
transferlug said contracts or any interest in the
same.
It appears that the Tacks chiefly engaged in.
the purchase and sale on commission of oil for
exportation to Europe. The complainant spe
cially employed the defendants as his confi
dential agents in the business of dealing iu pe
troleum, paying them a commission ol one and
a half per cent. on all sales made by them.
It is alleged that the defendants,pn whose fidelity
he relied, had advised him to make contracts
covering 16208,000. It is further alleged that the
agents made O'Connor believe that the market
would be glutted, and there would be a fall in
prices, though at the same time they were pur
chasing largely on buyers' option and time con-,
tracts. .
Mr. O'Connor alleges that on the faith of their
advice he instructed them to sell some of his oil,
and the result was the alleged loss tohim of $3O,-
000.' Ile allegee that they had conspired to de
fraud him of this amountigand on that ground he
instituted a criminal suit @so. A warrant to this
effect was issued, and on Saturday,the defendants
were arrested in New York.

MUTINY ON tEintr-nomtn. The ship Lizzie
Moses, Captain Cox, left this port on Saturday,
bound: for Antwerp.. When a short distance
'down the Delaware, the crew refused to do duty,
-and-threatened violence If the-officers interfered
with them. Upon the captain and mates at
tempting to enforce authority, the men mutinied,
and the captain, and a seaman who took sides
with the officers, were beaten. The latter, named
James Hamilton, was struck on the head with a
belaying pin, and was badly cut. The first mate;
named Fields, received a severe cut in the hand
with a knife. Lieutenant Edgar, of the Harbor
Pollee, with a posse of men, visited the ship, and
assisted the officers to iron the most refraetory ,
of the men, after which they left. The ship sub
sequently proceeded on her voyage.

:Vlore Territorial Acquisitions.
President Cabral, of Dominica, has sent a mes
senger to 'Washington with instructions to accept
the offer of the United States for the purchase of
Samana, 00 the island of Hayti, for $5,000,4)00.
The following is a description of the new ter
ritory which It is proposed to add .to our pus
stSsioue.
The territory which has now become the prop
erty of the United States has been the subject of
negotiation for several years past. The Bay of
Sainana is situated on tile south side of the pen
insula of the same name, and is from east to west,
about forty-three miles long, by eight miles wide.
The Yuna, the largest river in St. Domingo,
nipties itself at the western end. The bay forms
one of the largest and safest harbors in the world,
and Wail its position in reli:rence to the Gulf of
Mexico trade and the routes across Central
America may be regarded as' heing the most ini
portant,+oint, in a military and commercial
view,-fflhat pot Lion of the continent.
On its northern shore and lying in the light of
a land-locked bax,,,is the small and dilapidated
town of Santa barbara, which Is probably in
chided in the purchase. The entrance to the
bay is about three miles wide, and can be easily
Mended by heavy batteries located on both
Shims. Of the capacity of the harbor it need
only be said that no fleet could be gathered
within it large enough to take up its space, to
that, either from the weather or from an enemy,
our commercial and war navy cin always find a
place of certain safety.
In a political point of view the possession - of
the Bay of Samna by We United Slates is of .
great importance. It gives us a powerful and
- controlling•position - in the-Antilles-and -Gulf-of -
Mexico, and should this acquisition be followed
by the purchase of the island Of St. Thotnas,
we will become the preponderating power In the
archipelago, and the actual arbiters of the deal- •
ides of all the islands which "Omprise It. ' That,
European powers have always recognited this.
fact is certain, as, actording to the Opinion
Nathmak, of Paris, We'attempt to get possession
of it several years ago was baffled by the French
consul-general at Port au Prince. The same
paper, under date of February 14, 14447, In re
terring to the visit of Mr. Frederick Seward to
St. Domingo, declared the acquisition of the Bay
of Santana by the United States ' ''could not fail
to, become a cause of Just disquiet to France,
.Spain, England and the republic of Hayti."
And, indeed, so far as Spain and Hayti are con
cerned, its occupation by us would almost insure
our success in case of a war with either of those
governments, commanding as it does Hayti and
Cuba on one side, and Porto Rico on the other.
Should we succeed in getting possession of St.
Thomas, then we would completely hem in
.11111111 N and command the French Antilles is
lands,
The five circuit miles of land sold with the bay
are yry fertile., as indeed is the entire penin
sula. they - will doubtless be used to construct
the naval station, and to erect forts and batteries
-upon. ,
Imprudent Diplomats.
The "It Mall Gazelle says:
"A curious story is told iu Paris of auin
terview between the Marquis de :Mustierand
Count Goltz, which is . sAid to have taken
place last week, just before the departure of
the latter from France. The Count having
called on the Marquis to take leave, was
shown into a room and kept waiting a con
siderable time. The Foreign Minister ullhally
treats his visitors, it appears, in this uncere
monious way, and great complaints have been
made in consequence. Count Goltz, whose
temper is somewhat irritable, was just pre
paring to 'o, when the Marquis appeared, and
bluntly addressed him in these words : 'Well,
M. le Comte, the Prussian papers are as
violent against us as ever.' The Count upon.
this repeated that his government could not
be held responsible for the tone of the Berlin
press, and the conversation was continued
with . great warmth on both sides, the, in
terlocutors not observing that in the heat or
discussion they had passed into an adjoining
gardenwhere every word they said.could be
heard the Foreign , Office clerks in the sur
rounding bttilding.
Attrocitius Murder at Sarato . ga.
BAnnTowi, N. Y. August 25.—J. Theodore
Jones, deputy jailer of the Hudson City, New
Jersey, Jail, was shot at the Union Hotel this
morning, by William J. Kertley. Jones arrived
here on the morning train, slightly intoxicated,
and went into the boot-room at the hotel.
Kertley came in and sat down to have his boots
blacked. Jones went up to Kertley and took a.
cane off his knee., and afterwards put his
hands on Kertley's knee, who pushed
him off. Jones slapped Kertley in the
face, and was pushed . off again, and wa .
then noticed to put his hand behind him. Kadin?'"
then drew an Ellis self-cocking revolver and shot
Jones in the neck, the ball entering at the right
side and killing him instantly. Kertley came
from Baltimore, and is keeping a billiard saloon
under the Leland Opera House. An inquest was
held on the body and a verdict rendered that the
deceased was killed by Kertley. Jones's body is.
in the hands of his friends. There was no>
previous acquaintance between the parties.
Kertley is in custody, and says the pistol went.
off accidentally.
A SELF-DENYING PRELATE.-A. recent cir
cular of the Cardinal Archbishop of Besan
con, France, to his clergy, exhorting them by
make.eflbrts to obtain donations from their .
flocks for charitable purposes, contains this
curious passage: "I have compromised my
present and my future. I give•\ to the poor
and to churches, and secretly oropenly to a
host of people in distress , as mu as I can,
even more than I can. Ido not keep a car
riage. I wear shoes with holes in them, and
my cassock is patched. You have seen more

that. Ood knows why I do it. . I arn anxious
