AN ENVIATILI4 BIIPMATIAN.- -By this phrase ws may
Nati: characterize the. celebrity of Dr. J. IL Schenck ,
ill Philadelphia, whose name is now widely known
thronahout tbia,Atlfintie States, and whose professional
VerratatiOD is founded on his successt ul labors at &medical
reformer. His great medicine, known as "Schenck's
Pulmeatie Syrup," has practically refuted the ridn
times dogma of the medical schools, that "con
annoption is incurable." it can be proved — by May
*Arable amount of testimony,, that this medicine has
owed many who were pronounced, by distinguished
„phyficianf, to be in the last stages of consumption;
mid among the number. Dr. Schenck himself may bo
imeludet Dr. Schenck has likewise discovered an infal
lible remedy for dyspepsia, viz.: "Scheneles Seaweed
Tonic," which is probably the only tree remedy for Indi
gestion that can be furnished by the Materia Modica of
our country. Still better— Dr. Schenck has discovered an
efficient substitute for calomel, that great destroyer of the
human race,which has probably slain more than consump.
tkin itself, Though one.fonrth of the human family is vie.
thnited by that fatal disease. The three medicines of
Dr. Schenck are employed by him , in the cure of con•
sumption, to which branch of medical practice his &Qom

soccessful than any other man in America.

EVENING BULLETIN.
Monday, March 23, 1868,
AIUNTRIA AND THE CONCORDAT.
In no part of the world has the progress of
liberal ideas been greater than it has been in
Austria during the past few years. The les
sons she has been taught by her losses in
Italy and in the war with Prussia have had a
most excellent effect. They have induced
her to grant a parliament to Hungary and to
make other concessions which have had a
most tranquilizing effect upon the discon
tented peoples in various parts of the empire.
But the most important step yet taken is that
by which the civil marriage bill has been vir
tually carried in the Reichsratb. By virtue of
the Concordat with the Pope, agreed upon in
181 Z, marriages could only be legally solem
nized in Austria by the Roman Catholic clergy.
This has been felt as a severe oppression by the
various sects of Protestants, Greeks, Armeni
ans, Jews and others, not Catholics, that
cow 'rise one-fourth of the sub'ects of the
Empire. But the virtual 'annulment of the
'Concordat has conic with a suddenness that
surprises all, and there is wonderful jubila
tion among the anti-clerical party every
where. Their opponents strove to have
action upon the bill deferred until the Con
cordat could be changed; but this was re- -
fused, and henceforth there will be freedom
of marriage in the Empire.
The Emperor Joseph IL introduced many
reforms in Austria, among which the most
important were those releasing non-Cathoiics
from the control of the church. Francis
Joseph 1., however, in the early part of hie
reign, became wholly subject to the author
ity of Rome, and the Concordat to which ho
agreed in 1855 restored things to the condi
tion they were in before the time of Joseph
IL This was a piece of retrogression un
worthy of the , age, and it had a very bad
effect in Austria, while it crea
ted a very bad feeling towards
her among liberal people and governments
everywhere.. The causes that have led to
the virtual annulment of the Concordat arc
various. Doubtless one of theta was the dis
eovery that subservience to the Church could
not preserve to Austria her Italian dependen
cies, Lombardy, Venetia, and the several
Duchies. Then, too, the gradual reduction
of the papal dominions, the consolidation of
Italy, and the wars of 1859 and 1861; effected
ehanges that were keenly felt by Austria, and
opened the eyes of her Emperor and states
men to the fact that ecclesiastical govern
ment could not be safely submitted to in any
part of Europe, in this modem age of pro
gress. In Germany a ProteStant monarch
has become a paramount power, and Italy is
governed by a monarch who, while profess
ing Catholicism, is under the ban of excom
munication, and regarded as a champion of
freedom, religious as well as civil. The ag
grandizement of these two powers, in
dependent of the ' church, has been
eotemporaneous with the diminution
of the power of Austria, which
bad put herself under quasi subjection to the
Church. Enfranchisement from this subjec
tion is one of the measures of reform lately
determined upon. that cannot fail to have a
most beneficial and quieting effect upon the
heterogeneous masses of people over whom
the House of Hapsburg reigns.
THE CONTESTED ELECTION.
The EVENING BULLETIN is now publishing
full phonographic reports of the arguments in
the contested election case. The argument
of Mr. District Attorney Mann, long as it is,
should be carefully read and seriously pon
dered by all who desire to restore purity to
the ballot-box, and to preserve the commu
nity from the wide-spread demoralization
which must follow close upon the heels of
such shameless frauds as are here exposed.
The line of attack upon the rascalities of
the Fourth Ward,in which most of the cheat,
ingivas"done, is directed V; the Vevediment
of such a state of things in that section of the
city, as to demand the exclusion of the
entire election divisions from the count.
It is shown, not only that many fraudulent
votes were cast, but that the election was
fraudulently conducted, and was therefore no
valld election. The practical point was
primed with great force by Mr. Mann, that
t o permit these practices to go unchecked
and unpunished, is to offer a direct premium'
to corruption, and to insure the spread of
the sante system of rascality throughout the
, ffl ule eortununity, by the rapid contagion of
a bad example peimitted to go unrebuked
by the law.
The time has come for the courts to vindi
cate the majesty of the law where it. has
been so long and so daringly set at defi
ance. Elections such as are held every
year in the Fourth Ward are an offence and
a mockery in the eyes of all decent people.
There is an opportunity now to strike it blow
at these corruptions. The investigation has
been a long, laborious and searching one.
The existence of this political iniquity can
not be doubted or denied, and if it is now
arrested and punished, as fearlessly as it has
been pursued and exposed, the whole com
munity will, feel the benefit. The ballot-box
in America needs to be kept sacred, or rather
to be made sacred, for it has fallen, in many
places, into sad dishonor and disrepute.
What has long been a subject of
common report and scandal in the
Fourth Ward, is now being de
monstrated before a Court of law, and it will
be a most unfortunate thing for public morals
if the opportunity should fail to work the
ends of justice. It is of comparatively little
consequence, except to themselves, whether
A., B. and C., or D., E. and F., hold certain
offices in the "Row," but it is of vital import
ance to the welfare of the community and
the stability of our institutions, that such a
system as has long ruled Philadelphia,
and even Pennsylvania, through - the - corrup
tions of Fourth Ward politicians, should
receive a substantial and permanent check.
I'OPPLAU PLAGUES.
Coming in after a popular performance has
commenced, and thus annoying performer
and audience, is by no means the only an
' noyance that is incident to public entertain
ments. Going out during the progress of a
performance, and particularly the general
scramble just towards the close, when the
dyirg agonies of the tragedian, the benedic
tion of the "heavy father," or the last warble
of the vocalist, are utterly spoiled by the in
decent stampede, is still worse. There may
be extreme cases where there is some excuse
for being late; bat generally there is no ex
cuse whatever for leaving lecture hall, theatre
or concert room during the progress of an en
tertsdrrnent. But there are well meaning
people who would no more think of coming
late or going early than they would think of
munching peanuts at a Kemble read
ing; and yet they do things that
would be equally ill-mannered, if
they were conscious of what they were doing
and of the annoyance they were causing to
more, thoughtful people. We have no refer
ence to the boor who sits with his hat on, or
who stands up and shuts from a sight of the
stage all who are unfortunate enough to be
behind him. Such nuisances as these belong
to the pea-nut, orange-peel and saw-dust
realm, and nothing that the BULLETIN could
say upon the subject would ever reach them.
Scarcely better than these piggish people are
thatuzzers;_foolisk_peraons____a_both_sexes,-
who keep up an incessant whispering during
an opera or a play, and who sometimes im
prove upon their general performance as nui
sances by describing in anticipation all the
scenes, incidents and utterances of the play.
A little further on in the scale of annoyances
are the sympathetic amateur musicians,
who hum an accompaniment to every
air that is played, and who perplex
the bored ear to distinguish between the notes
of the professional and the volunteer per
former. There are some of these musical
enthusiasts who beat time with their feet upon
the floor or kick against the legs of the set
tees in front of them,to the utter distraction of
all sufferers from the infliction. The innocent
printed programmes of the evening can with
a little ingenuity be converted into instru
ments of exquisite torture to the sensitive.
The constant rustling of the squares of crisp
paper will accomplish much in the way of
ruining a low note in music or a subdued
tone of voice;, but the greatest triumph is
achieved when the bill of the evening is con
verted into a fan, and when this is vigo
rously pike] and brought into contact with
veil or ribbons; at each sweep,the pleasure of
a circle of a dozen persons may be
effectually destroyed, if the 'instru
ment be in good and vigorous hands.
The too appreciative gentleman, who will
break into the finest passages with uproarious
applause, and who will persist in applauding
after both audience and performer have had
a surfeit of it, is a nuisance. So is the little
squad of c/agteeurs who insist upon encores
when both performer and audience are weary
and anxious to bring things to a close. But
these stampers and clappers are worse than
mere ordinary nuisances; for after getting all
that was bargained for in the contract be
tween performer and audience, they selfishly
endeavor to force the former to perform double
,duty for single pay, a piece of injustice that
is scarcely less gross than tb demand of the
merchant seventy-two inches of stuff for
every yard paid for. The dull appreciator of
a jest is a nuisance in his way. While sitting
at a play he fails to see the point that is con
vulsing the rest of the audience, and it only
enters his thick head after everybody else has
had his laugh out, and the scene has perhaps
become serious and pathetic. The dull list
ener then breaks into a tremendous guffaw
that will not be suppressed, and although it
sets the audience off in a fresh titter, it does
not contribute greatly to the understanding of
the play or to its enjoyment.
There are numerous minor annoyancee,but
we have mentioned the principal drawbacks
to the enjoyment of refined or intellectual
entertainments. Notwithstanding the nui
sances referred to above, there have been
great reforms in places of public amusement
since the days when Cooper, the elder Kean
and the elder Booth played to pea-nut eating
crowds, and when shouts' of "Boots!"
"Boots!' from the pit, and "Fight!" - „Fight!"
fr(ini the lobbies were events of nightly occur
ence. These things have been "reformed in
differently." Thejudicious .would say_ with
II am!et, 4. 0, reform them altogether!"
The *laselane Colleen On.
We notice In detail some of the' more con
spicuous of Mr. Ilaseitine's pictures, premising
that the entire I,,allery will be disposed of at
public sale, without reserve, during the evenings
of Monday, 23d, and Tuesday 24th lusts. We
have already alluded to the authentic interest of
this collection. Mr., Haseitine, . connected by
fondly ties with some of the foremost arpnbllity
of die „eoubtry,.. has ..stotked his rooms with

paintings which fortn`the expression, of his own
taste, and the purchaser will have the privilege
of chOoFing among a group frOm wbielt a culti
vated intelligence has excluded all bad art.
Mo. 11. Phil. bouturier, "The' Farm-Yara."
The color and drawing of this family of poultry
are excellent—the composition a little confused.
17. Henry Bacon, "Dressing the Doll." Mr. Bacon,
a pupil of Edouard Frero, resides at Ecouen,near
Lin former instructor, and readily disposes of
nearly all his pictures at Paris; for this, reason his
works are rather rare in this country. 19. E. B.
Bensell, "The Wild Wagoner of the Alleghenies,"
a spirited conception of T. B. Read's hero, as
ho conducts his team through a mountain
snow-storm. 20. J. H. Dolph, "The Dessert,'
the ' best fruit-plece in the gallery, and
one that would hold its own in any gallery in
Europe. The pineapple, the silver-mounted
flagon, ,the raisins and nuts, and background, are
all, very admirable examples of texture and of
rich, grave color; we do not believe that Velas
quez, when he commenced his laborious career
with studies of properties and still life, always
succeedtd more felicitously than the author of
this choice we'll has done. 29. Edmund D.
Lewis, "Goodrich Falls," a tumbling torrent
in the rugged neighborhood of the White Moun
tains, ,combined in a varied piece of scenery
such as Mr. Lewis loves to paint. 30. J. J.
Veyrasset, "The Harvester's Lunch." In this
group of young peasants there are excellent heads,
laid in with a peculiarly firm, decided touch. 31.
William E. Cresson, "Old Mother Hubbard."
Never, since time began, was human being so
completely the toy of the surprises and con
tretemps of life as this epic dame: when Argils
turns tricky, Ulysses himself will find his intelli
gence at fault. Cresson seems to be the first who
has done justice to the heroine of unluck; his
Mother Hubbard, exploring her cabinet with a
profound unconsciousness of the sly little
Isle-of-Skye who lies in wait behind
her, is a figure of Imbecility and un
worldliness that Mother Goose herself would
have clasped to her heart and owned as a sister.
34. C. Mackeldy, "Lake of Bricntz," a beautiful
mountain tarn, painted in the Dfisseidorf man
ner. 35. Couder, a decorative composition of
Fruit and Flowers. 36. "The Serenade," by V.
Nehlig, a French painter, for some years resident
in New York. A lovelorn youth is singing, in
broad day, under Bonnybell's window panes. M.
Neblig's manly and artistic work is an example
to the greater part of our native figure painters.
38. J. Leray, "The Obliging Friend."- &wheed
ling youth, with a world of meaning
in his face, is demonstrating the
beauty of the scenery to the mother,
in order that the daughter may be left to the
attentions of the other young man, his comrade.
This Don Juan situation is tellingly made out.
The rainting has been engraved. 41, one of Mr.
Haseltint's highly-prized Troyons. The French
landscapist has executed larger and more elabor
ate works than this picture of a young paysannr
washing at the shadowy Norman stream ;
but the student and lover of his landscape
, can find the most of, his rare qualities in this
modest example.--46, "Camels to Hire," an East
ern scene, perfectly characteristic of the manner
of Theodore Frere, brother of the widely-known
Edouard. 48. James Hamilton, "Drifting—Bay
of Naples," A lovely picture, with stinset on the
peerless Gulf; Vesuvius setting free its pallid
cloud across the mist, Naples lying crescent-wise
upon the water, and, in the foreground, a group
of feluccas brooding upon the_wide tranquility
or stealing off beneath the haze. The painting
is a precious illustration (or illumination) of T. B.
Read's graceful poem, "Drifting." 50. H. Her
zog, a very good "Moonlight," by this
popular painter, with the rays of a
misty moon blending with those from
the lighthouse across the breakers. 53, W. S.
Haseltine, "The Seven Mountains upon the
Rhine," one of the German studies of this ad
mired ,landscape painter. 54, "Spring,"
by W. Maris, a happy effect of noon,
with cattle drinking mid-leg-deep in the
stream, under the just-budded pollards.
59, Frohlich, "The Lunch." 64, W. V. de V.
Bonfield, "Gathering Wood in Winter,"
one of several snow-scenes by the artist.
67, Notreman, "The Interrupted Feast," a
little incident which commends itself by its fan.
The guests at the banquet are a pair of apes,
whom tLe house-dog, contemptuous of the feast
of simian humor and the flow of half-developed
soul, has brutally set aside for the gratification
of, Lis ruder appetite. 77. G. F. Bensell, "Thu
Bleeping Beauty." 78. H. C. Bispham, "Deer
Chased by Wolves." 79. E. Mcllhenny, "Cain,"
a huge and expressive chalk drawing.
Under No. 403-S will be sold a valuable work in
fc.ur richly-bound volumes, being engravings in
line alter the pictures of the famous Pitti Gallery
in Florence.
The examples above all uded to are selected
from the first moiety of the catalogue, and will

ISpental Dee patch to the Philadelphia Evening Bolietito
WAsiimuroly, March 23.—At ten o'clock this
morning the people commenced to wend their
way to the Capitol, to witness the second day's
proceedings in the Court of Impeachment against
Andrew Johnson.
The rules that were in force ten days ago were
found hi continuation to-day. At every entrance
of the Senate wing of the Capitol' stood pollee
men, who, like adamant, opposed all persons
being admitted unless provided with tickets.
By eleven o'clock the ladies' gallery was filled
with the creme de la crime of society here,
and they. likewise took possession of
the greater portion of the gentlemen's
gallery. Not over a hundred gentlemen
were fortunate enough to obtain tickets, and the
galleries presented - similar appearance
to the scene within a vast opera house
•u come great ocessiotost-
every latirwas provided with an opera glue or
magazine, and many brought luncheon baskets
with them.
It was a noticeable fact that many of the demi
,vande were scattered throughout the galleries
to the exclusion of hundreds of people from
distant points of the country, who
had come for the purpose of
attending the trial. Not to exceed
half dozen attachis of the foreign legations were
in the Diplomatic Gallery. The Senate cham
ber presented the same appearance as on
Friday week. Chairs were arranged
near the Senators', desks for the members of the
House, while two tables for the Board of Mana
gers and the President's counsel were In front.
At twelve o'clock the Senate was called to or
der, with but few Senators in their seats. Mr.
Doolittle appeared and received the congratula.
Lions of Mr. Dixon only.
The ladles in the galleries kept np such a con
tinual conversation that the President of the
Senate was compelled, several times, to tap his
gaval vigorously, in order that oven Senators
could be heard.
At this hoar, all the galleries excepting the
diplomatic are densely crowded with ladies, and,
as on former occasions, no colored people are
present.
Reconstruction In,Florida.
tßpeetal Deepatch to the Philadelphia Evening Bulletin.]
WASIILNGTON, March 23.—General Meade has
just issued orders for an election in Florida, to
ratify the new Constitution and to elect State
officers and representatives in Congress, on the
first Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday in May.
lie orders that all bar-rooms and saloons
in the State shall be kept closed on
the days of election, and closes his orders by say
ing that "no contract or agreement with laborers
made for the purpose of controlling their votes,
or of restraining them from voting, will be per
mitted to be enforced against them in this
District."
An erroneous impression has gone forth that
there are two Republican tickets in the held, as
well as two 'eta of Constitutions. There is, in
fact, but one ticket which receives the support
of all loyal men — of that State, with the
exception of half a dozen or so of disappointed
adventurers front the North, who, failing to get
the nomination on the State ticket, now oppose
the present constitution, and seek to create dis
sension in theiltepublican ranks.
Boiler Explosion.
CINCINNATI, March 23.—Yesterday morning
the boiler supplying hot water to the bath-room
of Theodore Cook's residence exploded, seriously
damaging the kitchen, demolishing the windows,
furniture and everything in it, besides shattering
the walls and rendering the building worthless.

The Impeachment Trial
[Special Despatch to the Philadelphia Evening Bulletin.]
WASIIINGTOI4T, March 23.—There was an un
usually full attendance in the House this morn
ing before the Speaker's gavel fell, and the floor
was crowded with outsiders, many of them be
sieging members for tickets of 'admission to the
Senate wing, where occurrences of more absorb
ing interest are expected. The galleries, too,
are well tilled with those who cannot reach the
well-guarded Impeachment Court.
The business is of little interest, during the or
dinary routine of the morning hoar. The only
one of the Managers who is in his seat at first is
Gen. Butler, who offers an important bill. Af
terwards Williams, and still later, Wilson, ap
pear in their seats, and the others drop in as one
o'clock draws near. During the intervening
hour, Mr. Holman gets up a resolution for pay
ing the bonds in greenbacks, which is referred
amid considerable noise.
Mr. Blaine gets a resolution adopted' instruct
ing the architect of the Capitol to report upon
the feasibility and cost of transferring the old
hall of the House of Representatives into com
mittee rooms.
:Ur. Washburne, of Indlana„gets up a resolu
tion giving increased compensation to clerks.
which inereart:i the noise and bustle which have
already called the Speaker's gavel into frequent
requisition, but did not succeed in getting a vote
on It.
Mr. Garfield, upon the Secretary of the Senate
coming with a notice, desiring the presence of
the House at the trial of the President, asks that
the Speaker call the attention of the members to
the Impropriety of straggling separately into the
Senate Chamber, to get a good seat before the
House goes as a Committee of the Whole in Its
official capacity, which is complied with, and the
House then resolves itself into a committee
and marches to the Senate Chamber.
At half-past 12 o'clock the Senate suspended
legislative business, and the Secretary was noti
fied to inform the House that the Senate was
ready to receive them.
At one o'clock Mr. Wade vacated the Chair,
and a moment after Mr. Chase entered by the
rear door. The Managers of the House of Repre
sentatives entered, and then came the House
Itself, in one body. The President's counsel en
tered by the rear door and took seats. There
was an addition to theLrnumher in the persons of

TENNESSEE.
The Attempt to Asuissivate Judge
Bunter- Excitement Among the
t'reedmen.
[Corresondence of the N. Y. Tribune
Musirnis,March 17, 1868.—rhe excitement I
here among colored men is moat intense. The I
high-handed attempt to assassinate Judge Hunter
of the Criminal Bench, for his official action,
causes canes loud and deep on the part of the
masses of the blacks, to whom he has
always been a true,
consistent friend.
Consultations have been held among them, the
result of which is a resolve that an attack upon
him will be looked upon as an open and
direct attack on the body of colored men who
feel that the fight which has beengoing on be
tween the Criminal Bench and t he Afernvhis
Avalanche, has been an Issue between rebel pro...
scription and the right of a Radical Judge, with
no earthly fault as a Judge unless his being a
Radical, be one to enforce strict and impartial ,
justice to all. Should rebel proscription succeed -
in procuring his assassination it will take a large
force of troops to prevent a retaliation which will
be terrible indeed. The conduct of the Judge
of an inferior court in allowing himself through
fear of rebel proscription to issue a writ of habeas
corpus in a case entirely beyond his jurisdiction,
and wholly belonging to the superior court in
which it originated, is most severely cen
sured by loyal men, especially as such illegal in
terference nearly cost the life of Judge Hunter.
The colored men, expecting that perhaps a retie-'
tition of the former bloody riots may
occur, are organizing for the emergency. The
rebel prees t eeeing toolate the effect of their action.
will doubtless endeavor to relieve themselves
of the odium of the same. They cannot, how
ever, get around the fact of a high-handed at
tempt to assassinate a loyal judge beeause of his
official action In Imprisoning rebel editors in op
position to. the mass of rebel sympathizers, nor
the fact that such judge was forced to adjourn
court because the process and judgments of the
same could not-be enforced. -The order of court
adjourning the same will tell the whole story to
all who are not too blind to see and understand.
The following is the order of adjournment:

The New York Money Market.
[From the N. Y. Irerald, March 22.1
The leading feature of aff sire in Wall street lag week
wee I he extreme stringency in the money market, which
es eyed seven per cent. in coin to be offered freely for
call loans on stock collaterale. including goy
ei nments, while on Thursday and Friday a com
mission of per cent a day was paid quite
generally in additicn. On Saturday. however, there
was an abatement of the pressure, owing to the very
light demand from the Stock Exchange and the
pre erect of the Treasury Inning ten millions of the old
three per cent. certificates of indebtedness, known as
clearing house certificates, in the purchase of seven thirty
notes or compound intereet notem from the banks. The
fub-Treasurer expressed his willingness to buy coven
thirties yesterday at 106; hut as the current price was 106
(e-106:'s, there were no sellers on the terms offered. The
I leering Douse Committee deliberated on the subject
of the proposed reissue of these certificates, and after ex
pressing themselves in its favor detided to call a general
conference of the banks on Monday, with a view to so
adjusting matters as to make the exchange of interest
bearing Dotes for certificates practicable. The money
market is not, however, likely to experience much relief
until after the first week in April. by -which time the
funds diets thuted to meet the demands of "settling day"
and to enable the naticnal banks to make up their quar
terly returns satisfactorily wilt have begun to return to
this centre. This etatemen&ef the city banks for the
week ending yesterday tMocta the recent stringency,.
and eh ows that they are weaker In loanable resources
than they have been for a long time past. When corn
eare d with the return of the previous week the following
eb..ne en are presented: A decrease in the depoeits of
169.r96,044, in the legal tender notes of. 52,447,780, in the
loans of 0,399,184. in the epecio of 51,800.393, and in the
circulation of St ill. ,
Government securities were dull and 'Somewhat de
pressed by the extreme monetary activity, but after the
relapse of about a half per. cent from the previous ad
vance on the first day . of "the squeeze" prices were well
euetained, and on El iday afternoon and Saturday there
wee a decided change for the better in the temper
of the •market, and quotations advanc d from
a quarter to fivmeights per cent: from the lowest
point, touched. The indications are that this clam of
securities has experienced the full effect of the tight
money market and that with a moderate supply of loan
able funds it will advance considerably, prices being
low and the tendency upward. Moreover, owing
to the high prices at which railway and miscella
neous stocks are quoted, as well as to the pub
lic distnint and Wall street demoralization growing out
of the Erie litigation, both investors and speculators are
tinning their attention away from these.- and the natu
ral result will be that United States stocks will absorb
some, of the capital this left unemployed, and
for safety and cheapness no other tithe
rifles can ,compete with them. What prudent
man would select for investment a six per cent. in cur
reney stock, like New 1 ork Central at 184, when he can
buy six per cent in gold stocks at a little more than five
per cent above per. allowing for the accrued interest?
Speculation in railway shares at the present time is in
verted with more than ordinary danger and the market
in liable to violent fluctuations, which cannot hefty-es:ou,
became they are, produced by clique movements and
other artificial causes which defy the scrutiny of out
siders..
[From today's World.] •
Mental 21.--The chief topics of conversation in

The correapondence of August Met was cited, and the
answer claims that the settled practice of all preceding
Preeidenta and Congress eettles the right of the Freedom
to remove pubordinates at will, and that in good faith he
removed the said Stanton in accordance with his under
standing of the requirernenteol the Constit ution,and noti
fied the Senate of his eetion, expepting that the differ
ence of opinion between them would*. bey es it should
be, determined by the 'Jildicial authority.
The surweriurther claims that the Tenure of (Mice hitt,
even if admitted to be conatinitional. does not cover the
care of Stanton The necessity of settling the point in
dispute between the Exeoutivei and Lest 3 lathe branches
is insisted upon at length, and it is maintained that it
could be, brough t before the courts in no other way.
. The suspension of Stanton id claimed to have been made

(From taday's Tribune,'
William McCnnniffe called at the residence of
his brother-in-law, John O'Shea, at No. 502 East
Seventeenth street, on Saturday evening, for the
bnrpose of recovering his trunk, he having
oarded there for several months past. A brother
of McCunniffe's, Thomas by name, accompanied
him. McCunniffe, however, found the door of
the apartment locked and asked to be admitted,
but O'Shea refused to open the door, and the
brothers burst it open. On entering the apart
ment they were mot by O'Shea, ,and during the
quarrel - tbatensued O'Stioa - -pitmged - u - carpen
ter's chisel into MeCtmuiffe's abdomen, piercing
the intestines, and causing, probably, a fatal
wound. The injured man was conveyed to
Bellevue Hospital in a fainting condition. He is
28 years old, and has a wife and one child. Im
mediately after the assault O'Shea was arrested.
Coroner Schirmer attended at Bellevue Hospital
yesterday, and took the , ante-mortem testimony
of the wounded man. It corroborates the ver
sion of_the affair before given in alLthe leading
particulars.. Several witnesses were eatambaed,
and they corroborated the statement of McCun
nlffe, adding that the cause alleged by O'Shea for
the detention of ate - trunk Was that Idethniniffe
owed him $2. A. verdict against O'Shea was
rendered by the jury. He admitted having
stabbed McCunniffe, but said that he did it un
wittingly. He was committed to the Tombs to
await the result of the wounded man's injuries.
McCunniffe died at a late hour last night.
