lECCUMIASIrIiCAL COURTS.
Chictgo is a delightful place for sensations.
if is an. 'enterprising city; fat' ahead • of the
the , world generally its bustling activities-and
the variety of its, methods for keeping. itself
prominently .before -the . rest of mankind.
Boston cannot outdo 'Chicago in the breadth
and fnhress of its self-content; and it is behind
its Western .sister in the fertility of its adver
tising resources.
Among, the.' peculiar attractions of Chicago
are its Courts.' For a long time its Criminal
and Divorce Courts have ,liCen celebrated for
their sensational effects upon the public mind,
and have furnished the principal staple for that
class 'Of journalism which is especnilly devoted
to criminal news, Lately, hoWever;'Chicag,o,
far: too clever to run too long on a single line
of attractions, has varied its programme„ and
gone into the. ecclesiastical line. In, addition ,
to its standard Criminal and DivOrce Courts,
:it has 'lately got up an Ecclesiastical 'Court,
Out of which it is mating a good deal of sensa-.
tional capital.: '
Like other perfotniances at . their first pre
sentation; the stage machinery does not seem
to have run very smoothly. Ecclesiastical
Courts are noveltieS, as yet, at the West, and
the performers in this case had not half learned
their parts when the curtain went up. The
consequence was a jWco. The steady-going
old - legitimate drailla, the Supreme Court; has
stepped in and demolished its ecclesiastical
imitator with a quiet, dignified courtesy that
leaves nothing to be complained of. The his
tory 'Of the case is briefly thiS: ,
The Bight Reverend Thomas Whitehouse,
D. D.; is the Episcopal Bishop of the Diocese
of Illinois, In the early days of Ids:episcopate,
this prelate made himself very unpopular by
hiS reflisal CO reside in his diocese, preferring
the lux - nry of New York life. After some
Years of discontent his flock, succeeded in corn
pelting: their shepherd to take up his' abode
with them ; but they never succeeded in inocu
lating him with any of the broad and liberal
views of Western Americanism. Like. Many
another ecclesiastic, the mitre was too much
for and - he rapidly deVeleped, from the
meek and lowly parish priest, still pleasantly
remembered by the good people of Rochester,
into a prelate of the • order of : Laud,
stiff and starched in his , conception
of his episcopal prerogatiN's, and given more
and more to the exercise of those petty tyran
nies which belong to the narrow forms of hu
manity when invested with Power and high
flignities,--Bishop_Whitehouse-is_constantly=at
War with his clergy of the "EvangeliCal"
wing, and; as a general rule, has not met with
much success in these eeclesiastical encounters:
At present he has two of these contests on
hand, one With - Bishop • Cuniinins, of Ken
tucky, formerly a presbyter of Chicago, whom
"Thomas, Illinois," would fain keep out of his
diocese ; and another with a reverend Mr.
Cheney, whom he desires to yet out of his dio
cese. Over Bishop"Cumniins, the `Bishop of
Illinois has no jitrisdiction, and his
mandates to his, clergy to close theii• pulpits
against his Unwelcome brother are there
fore quietly disregarded, and the Kentucky
Mordecai continues to sit at the gate, vexing the
soul of the 'lllinois Kaman with his presence
which he 'Cannot away with. In Mr. 'Che
ney's case, Bishop Whitehouse has jurisdic
tion, but he has so bungled the adininiStration
of it, that the secular Courts have interfered to
stop his proceedings.
Mr. Cheney is an eloquent and popular cler
• Lyman of Chicago, a yOung man of ardent im
pulses and of radically Low Church" views.
Recently, he has come to the conclusion that
his conscience does not permit him ' to
use the Baptismal Service of his Church,
and .he therefore omits one of its essential
• phrases. Without entering at all into the'theo
logical view of this controversy, there
• can scarcely be a reasonable doubt that
this alteration of the Episcopal. Liturgy rerv;
tiered the, offender amenable to discipline. The
right claimed by Mr. Cheney, if allowed, must
so completely overturn the -Whole order and
uniformity. of the • EpisCOP :Chureh, that
whether his theological views be right or
wrong, his Bishop could not well do-otherwise
than' call him to account.
But in his impatient eagerness to dispose of
, his objectionable presbyter, Bishop Whitehouse
has tripped himself up. , He organized an
Ecclesiastical Court, and summoned Mr.Cheney
to answer. But , the Episcopal Church pla.ces
vaironical restrictions upon Episcopal authority,
and this Court turns out - to have been illegally
4constituted and illerpqyAo n d uc td. An appeal
10 been taken to the secular Courts, and
• Judge Jarneson, of the Suprema Courts in a
vply deg and, able opinion, has granted an
injunction which has stayed the whole ecclesi
asti4proeeeding. •
The grounds of. interference in this case .are
simply:these, and the principle which they in-.

If that be so; and the effe,ct:be "such'iS the law
recognizes as an injury to him, it is the duty
of the'Court to interfere."
Judge Jameson proceeds to c nisider Ntr.
Cheney's objections, all of which be fully sus
tains.. ' They do not tench the 'question, of in
, .
nocence or guilt, but ae confined to the, ech
.
nical construction of the Ecclesiastical Court,
which is clearly shoWn to have been in Viola
tion of canon' aw Judge Jameson then as- .
smiteS that the Eciclesiaetical Court, having no
legal right to proceed, intended "all that which
may befall in ease of the womt consegnences
unaer the canons of the Church.". The Court
being illegal constituted, Mr. Cheney could not
he exposed to the damages which would fol
low his.conviction and deposition, and there
fore` the injunction is granted. In granting
the injunction the Colin uses this very decided
14iivage ;
"A court declining to be examined as to
whether it has committed itself in regard to .
the milt or innocence of the accused or giving
him due warning of its causes of procedure, is
so manifestly unjust that I must express my
astonishment that four or tivc gentlemen of
intelligence should be found in this diocese
who wonkt,take such action. Not a similar
tribunal has existed nor none been guilty of
sue% itViThee since the days of Scroggs and
J eifreys"
Chicago's essay at , an Ec-lesiastical Court
has thus proved a complete failure, and Chi
cago Will have to try again. Unfortunately
for.the interests of religion, this Whitehmse-
Cheney controversy has developed a great deal
of personal and party feeling; and there is
little prospect of its reaching any dispassionate
settlement. The further it is pushed th, more
mischief it will produce, and, it is greatly to be
rq retied tl at the simple preaching of the Gos
pel, so mucfi needed in Chicago has to wait,
while bishops and presbyters wrangle over
questions which the masses of the people care
nothing about, and the settlement of which;
either way, will do nothing 'to promote the
spiritual welfare of any class of the comtnu
nity.
THE FRENCH REFORMS.
When Napoleon, in his recent message,
promised to liberalize the Government of
France, and » ake. it less autocratic, very few
people believed that he would keep his word
in spirit as Well as letter. Bat, although there
is a remote possibility that his concessions May•
yet be I indered in their application, now that
we have before us the complete outline of the
proposed reform, it really seems as if this
despot was in earnest in hiS intention to
yield up some of his personal authority and give
to France a truly representative government.
The neiv rights which he confers upon the
national Legislature are as follows : Authority to
propose alterations of the tariff; the
,right to
vote supplies in ' detail ; final power over
amendments ; the right of regulating its own'
body; the right, with the Emperor, of origi
nating laws; the right of interpellation; and
authority to — question the government upon
Matters of policy and State. The Ministers are
to attend the dehateS, and to be held responsi
ble for their actions, the power of impeach
ment, however, resting with the Senate. The
ISfnat - ien session unless when
e ~_ts) sit in op
try members unite in demanding that the pro
ceedings shall be secreC Besides thele things,
tLe Emperor promises a reduction of taxation
and the adoption of measures for- the -exten
sion of popular education.
T 1 ese reforms are radical, excellent and sur
ishig; and their proposal at this time by the .
I:niperor proves that he has a keen appreciation
of the foi cc of the liberal movement which is
ogi essing so rapidly' now in Europe, and has
:-agaCiyS• enough•to yield to it rather than be
in et Wheinted by it. With Spain, Prussia,
Italy, England,
„ and even despotic Austria,
striding rapidly ahead in the race for freedoM,
it. would have been Weidal madness for Na-:
poleon to have closed his eyes, and, in the
wildest fray of storm to have clung Vb his abso
lute authority: He Was wise enough, too, to
select for these reforuis the most appropriate
moment. The French elections are 'just over,
and in a direct appeal to the people from his an
tagonists he has come forth the conqueror,
with a majority for his government in the
,Legis
lature. No matter how this result was se
cured—and it was secured, undoubtedly, by
an extraordinary exercise of influence and use
of money—the fact of the victory remains, and
the reforms, following these immediately, have
the appearance of voluntary concessions grace
fully made, rather . than of compulsory sacri
fices made under the influence of fear in an
swer to threats. We linow that they must
have been made, 'Saar or later, or else. all
poWer would have been swept &Om the. Em
peror's hands. But act of necessity, when
it is done with au Appearance of generosity,
is mole Acceptable hi one party and more
readily .mforinett 14'the other.
- -But over oll.this 6rrea,t-rgtionckstallingers the
shadow• of doubt as to the sincerity Of the re-;
fofiner. Men do not ttust Napoleon even
ben he is in earnest. It is the fate of
duals who have . been unfaithful and false in the
past to endure constant suspicion. In this
case the Ministers and most of the members of
the Senate are the creatures of the Emperor,
and will execute his Will, while he simply com
pels them to bear the burden of the responsi
bility. But some of the reforms are of a kind
which transfers, absolutely, to the Legislature,
powers which hitherto,haye belonged excitt=
sively to. him. He cannot recall these without
attempting another coup d'etat t and it is much
too late inhis life and in the century for that. A
backwar4step now or hereafter would'endanger
his, gciverninent vastly niore.than If he bad
never begun the work of liberalization. If he
is not in earnest now the people are, and they
will not give back' to him these hardly won

of the sturdiest and shrewdest Republicans in
the Cabinet. Senter was supported by Andrew
.Enwr4o - n - EtlrertdgeTand all-thelThels
and Copperheads in the State. The very firs
result.of the victory is a definite promise, from
the triumphant party, that Andrew Johnson
shall be rewarded for his services with a seat in
the United States Senate, and this assurance
can easily be fulfilled, for this very singular
"Republican victory "has given the Tennssee
Deniocracy a majority in the Legislature. A
few more triumphs of the same• desL.ripflon

In contemplating the possible grandeur of
the . approaching solar" eclipse, the.intellect of
the geogyapher - ofthe New York Tribune seems
to have suffered a temporaryL4t may possibly
he chronic—obscuration. In yesterday's issue
the Tribune published a map shoWing the route
of the eclipse, and placing the city-of Philadel
phia in the state of Delaware. Perhaps the
morals mid politics of Delaware might be im
proved if such transfer could be inade, but
until it is made we protest against being put
into such a position, even at the suggestion of
a Tribune philosopher.

FINE REGISTRY LAW.
Opinion by Judge Brewster.
,
C.031310N PLeAs—,Tudge Brewster.—This
morning the following' opinion was read in the
matter of, the, application for a mandamus
igainst the AsSessors of the Fifth Ward:'
This is an•application for an alternate man
daunts. Regularly the writ should issue and
the defendants demur, plead, or answer.
Counsel have, however, argued it as if a de
murrer had been tiled, and as they are anxious
for aspeedy decision, we have considered the
question without regard to the form in which
it has been presented.
The relator avers that he is a citizen; that he
boards and lodges with Joseph Garwood, at,
the southeast corner of Fourth and Spruce
streets. and that the assessors have refused to_
insert his name on the division transcript be
cause the lower story of the boarding-house is
occupied as ,a tavern, - which; it is alleged, is
not connected in'any way with the rest of the
building: He • therefore claims that he is a•
''private, rasident, 'actually residing with li a
private Iptisekee.per,'? and as such clearly en
titled torregistration under the second clause
of the twenty-seventh section of the" act ap
proved April 17,18119,. commonly called the
Registry law.• . • .
The relator bother argues Abet he is:not
:%vithhathe -prohibition of the third clause of
said section,whfch excludes from registration,
the persons boarding at any. hotel, ,tavern,'
boarding. house, or restaurant" It is
evident thatthe question presented is of great
practical importance in. the execution of this;
Jaw, forif we,hold that a man' residing. in , a
private hoarding .house cannot be placed;iipo
the divi ri
tficin transcript,, shall certainly sub
ject a very munerous and''respectable clam of
citizens, to scrionalneonvenience.s. , do-npt
see why the proprietor -of a private boarding
house 18 not a private housekeeper.. Shall we
say that the is not private -because the
head boards:his son, and if taking,.a relative to
'board :dbes • not .ehange the .character'.of
. private house, iFI,# affected- .by receiving a
stranger so;;:,a lodger? It will hardly he con
tended:that „it is. any the, less
.a private,
housa,',becafiseiit contains `one 'such person,
and the moment; that, is, admitted there is an
`end of this difficulty, for. we cannot draw the .
• line and say,one, two- o r six persons may lodge
:in a house and it still ha private, hut that the
moment it.rebeives seven it becomes a public
house. The true distihetion is perfectly" well
understood: Thepubliabonse,is.for the enter- . ,
tainment of all who: ,boine. , lawfully and pay
regularly. The boarding-liOuSe is for the ae
commOdaticiii'oply of those, who are accepted
as guOsts by the pr4prietbr.- - Such: an • estab7
lishnietit is as much a.rivate houSe - as if there:
were no boarders.. The learned draftsman:of
this statute ;evidently. sothoughtifOr the beard
ing house included by thethird clause is the Sail,:
'ors boarding-house. - • Other boarding-houses.'
are rintoticheat by,the prohibition., ; • .

T' he next queAtion is, - Whether the present; "e

brings the occupant 'of ,the' :Warding-house

'sessers from placing on - the . _ list "the names
of any pe,rBon 'boarding' at; ally' hotel. tavern;,

According to the petition, which is 'uncon

true that the law was designed' to, goamr:ihe

son's who board or:Pretend to board at -such
establishments, andH that Jif we: allow ' the

'his bar-room in the ilame of aerson merely
. used:AS a corer, we May virtually nullify the
la*, for all the boarders in that establishment
will claim to be placed - on'the list,
Thit we must of course be governed by the
words of the statute and the raot . or each case
Ili•rit, courses before us. '.if It were alleged that
'this tavern was connected, with. the boarding
: house in anyway the relator wonld occupy; a
different position. -Here there is no allegation :
agaiiist tho'bouct jideS of the keeper of a tavern;
the proprietor of the. beardingdthuso or the
relator:.We have nothing to look atbut the
petition. •*--Ii• .alleges
.tts already Seen a case
within the law, and we Cannot decide to the
contrary upon mere suspicion unsustained by
ev6 , allegatlOn; ' . . .
We 00 not deem it an objection to the peti
tion that the relator omits, to allege that his
boarding-house is not
,a sailers' boarding
lieuSe This, as already een; is a Matfer of
defence for the respondents, and although
every intendment is against the pleader in tie
statement of his title, still he is never required
to anticipate matter or defenee.
“The rule is;?' said 31r. Justice Ashnrst, in
SPiers vs. Parker (I T. 1t:145h "that - any man .
whO will briii” an suction for a penalty on an
net. of Parlinment'inust Show luinself entitled
under the enacting clause; lint If *here he a
slibSequent occupation, that is a matter of de
fence. and the other party nnist show it to-ex
empt himself front the penalty2:'-
1; Fon the points originally argued by. coim
sel we nre, therefore, of opinion that the case
is with the relator, but there are difficulties in
his waY.whieli Were suggested upon OM mo
tion and whiel have not been dispelled by
the argument or by subsequent reflection. .
The 2tith section of the law requires the a.-4-
se:;sors to hold five other Meetings; and •at
any one of these "sessions the relator 'can pre
sent himself, and -upon Making .the affidavit ,
and submitting the proof required he can se
cure the insertion'of his name upon the extra
wessment.,
So. too,s':iinder the 31st Section. Upon due
.piouf that his claim is well founded, the re
lator can secure the entry of -his 'name upon
the canvasser's list. 'The insertion of his name
upon' any one of tlitNe transcripts , secures. 'all
ins rights, for the final register is iriade tip of
all the lists combined. ' . :
He hasoberefore; two remediei provided
by this Very statute, and failing in both, he
nay then possibly laave. the right to a 'man-
That. the existence of another remedy is fa
lai to the. present application must be very
evident from even a slight examination of the
antborities: , ; vs: "St. 3fary's Church
(2 Ilinn., 360) Mr. Justice Yeates collected the
Engliskcases to that date and deduced there
from the followingrules:

and

_want of a specific legal remedy.. He added
',..4that "it is an insuperable obstacle to this ap
plicatton that the law has provided for Mr.
Corkrin an adequate remedy." •
The same rule has been applied in Rex vs.

An Earthqutike Predicted. •
Son — febody - , - dOwn :in .the neighborhood: ofil
-Cairo; 111.,-lays - paperos - trying,,
to get up a sme - show,intlie - shape - of ari z earthz ,
quake, that be . says is to accompany the
eclipse. We do not, as a general thing, like
these outside performances, even when they
• are inside, as earthquakes generally are; but
while we are doing .a little free advertisingin
this line will'give hiin. the opportunity to,
puff his enterprise, as follows :
"The occurrence of the great and disastrous
earthquake in South Atherica, in the month of
August, last year, by which Seven cities on the
Pacific coast were, shaken down and over
whelmed by the tidal wave,' and thirty thou
sand people lost their lives, was at or about the
same time of the total eclipse of the sun in the
southern hemisphere, showing an apparent
connection between the two occurrences. The
philosophy-of the matter seems to be that such
a conjunction' of the sun and"Modn'acts on
the great internal ocean of moltenlava, with
which the interior of the earth is filled, in
causing au unusual sudden upward pressure of
'it, and an upheaving of the 'crust of the
earth' above it, in sections of country subject
to earthquakes. In. confirmation of the con.
nection between total eclipses of the sun and
the occurrence of, earthquakes, was told not
very ,long since,' 14 an intelligent friend of
considerable reading that the great earth
quake at New 'Madrid; 3.1.0., In 1811 :or
1812,•-,tookplace at - or about the OaelitralleA of
total "eclipse of the sun' Such eclipie, of
Ihe sun as we are about , 'to hale; ::it is said,
happens very Seldom, and has not taken place
for a long time, hence we May, look out for
the .region of country about New Madrid, or
the. coast ~' of. California, to, be, severely
Shaken about the 7th'Of Alignst-and that the
whole Mississippi,or our Pacific coast,
will feel the quaking of'the earth more or
less ! :Wino , not happen, but look out for the
earthquake P
