DETAILS or THE LAST DAYS:
SAINTE-DEUTZ: , ; .
. .
' From tbelipro of October
When Dr. Gessolin (surgeon of La ()barite
.
_hospital) came, at ten o'clock yesterday morn
log, to the'bedaide of Af T - ,Shinte-Benve, Whteh --
.„
- Dr ; Veyne (one of the oldestfrienes of the pa
tientj . had been watching without quitting for
some time Karst,; the two physicians looked at
each other and ceinprohended. The patient
was lost! .
.At half-past one Sainte-Beuve xiiired, at.
tended by Dr Sreyne, bl. Trouba score_
tary t and a woman Who haidirected his houSe.
if
bold,.ror fifteen Yearskand7who r raring . this
• t
long period of his incessant suffering, has
lavished upon him the most devoted and touch
ing
attentions._ During the latter part of his
sickness and' especially the last, three days,
these attentions have been such that Sainte
13euve could not cease praising the devoted
woman, 'and continually 'itpeated that an
angel-was- watching at bis pillow. The- last
hour of Sainte-Beuve was completely silent
the words which his lips endeavored to. whisi•
per could not be' heard; when ho died the
three persons who surrounded himicould hear
a faint cry, whichpassed from the dying man
with his last breath.
- Sainte-Beuve died in his houseßue Montpar
nasse, No. 11; in the chamber on the first floor
(second story), which was at-once his bedroom
and study. This apartment, like the rest Of
the house, is furnished with old-fashioned elm
; a wardrobe, a bureau, easy chairs' and
col - anion chairs covered with- green damask,
books scattered everywhere . , twoplaster busts
right and left on the =into], aniron bedstead
with a very thin mattress and no curtains;
these are all the comforts.
The life iu this habitation ww,.perfectly
patriarchal, and Sainte-Beuve has died as he
lived. When we entered the chamber we
have described, the 'corpse, covered to the
chin with a white cloth, had the air of slum
bering; an extreme pallor spread over the
face was the only indication that the soul had
flown and that death had paralyzed that 'vast
brain forever. A few minutes. before his
death Sainte-Beuve had-recovered the fine ex- .
pression of his Lest days, and after death his
Lead was beautiful and imposing,
We find in the - Gan/0/s:
Sainte-Beuve remarked to his housekeeper,
Mile. Boitard, a former school-teacher, " lam
dying; let us give to the poor until the end.
Let us try to do good up to 'the moment of
going." Visitors who surprised Sainte-Beuve
in the morning would see him handing to his
servant the copy needed by the printers, and
• - e • rakLd
..ese packets
contained his alms, done up. by Saintelteuve
himself the evening before. •
From the same journal:
Yesterday at three o'clock Dr. Pioge, in the
presence of several persons t made the autopsy
of the corpse of Sainte-Beuve. Three stones
were discovered; the largest was the size of a
large hen's egg - , the - two others are triangular_
and measure nine centimetres. According to
the doctors these stoners could never have been
extracted in the patient's lifetime; the opera
tion - would have certainly' occasioned death.
Atter the autopsythe corpse was embalmed.
According to a clause in the will, the inter
ment will take place at tea, Sainte-I3euve
having expressed the wiah to be buried at the
earliest possible hoar of the morning. • ,
Sainte-Beuve was particularly well known
to all -- the booksellers on the Quays - Voltaire
and Malaquais. Very frequently he visited
them at an extremely early hour, rummaging
among the shelves, glancing through a certaitt
volume, and conversing with the booksellers,
who all held him in the greatest respect. Ve ryfond of rare bookq, Sainte-Bence used to in
struct all the shopkeepers to send him such
antique and curious volumes as came up for
sale.
The Charity of the deceased was
,tiroverbial,
and in this, connection we are told' of a touch
ing piece of feeling on the part of one of his
pensioners. Some months since Sainte-Beuve
was obliged by sickness to keep his bed. A
poor old man whom the author employed oc
casionally to do his errands, and whom he
always paid liberally, came to beg for
a rather larger assistance than ordi
nary. Finding his protector in bed,
the old man turned pale and began to weep.
Saiete-Deuv e the cause of his emo
tion. "Ah !" replied the poor wretch, "you
see, Monsieur Sainte-Deuve, if you should go
and die, I have nothing to do but kill myself
too, for you are my only means of existence !"
The phrase broight a smile "to the lips of
Sainte-Beuve, who consoled the
_poor tellow
by giving 'tan what he asked.
Sainte-Beuve was passionably fond of ani
mals. He bad in his house three tom-cats and
two tabbies. The latter, both clothed in mag
nificent black-and-wte suits of fur, are
named Glorieuse and Jolie. There were likewise
two rabbits, which, having grown very tame,
played about the garden with the cats. More
than once the cook conceived the plan of
burying these poor rabbits in a ragout, but
eacktime Sainte-Beuve reprieved them. Care
is ifdrw taken that these poor animals whom
lie loved so well should want for nothing.
Some pigeons that were accustomed to fly to
the study-table of Sainte-Beuve to pick crutuns
of bread, have paid' their usual visit to-day;
finding nobody, they began to coo, hearing
which some one entered the room and gave
them_the crumbs they have been used to re
ceive
Store. odS "_t§
Here is the rmsage in Sainte-Deuve's will
relative to his funeral:
"I desire that no religious ceremony beheld
upon my decease.
" I demand of the compa,nies and bodies of
which I have the honor to boa member, not
to cause themselves to be iepresented at my
interment by any deputations, happy and
grateful if some of my colleagues and con
freres will care to accompany my remains
"I do not wish that written invitations be did
tributed after my decease. A simple announce
ment of the day and hour in the papers will
suffice. I desire that this hour be the earliest
possible (nine in the morning, for instance, or
ten at the latest). I ask to be carried directly
from my' residence to Montparnasse Ceme
tery, to the vault where my mother lies, with
out passing through the church,which I could
not suffer without violatibg the sincerity of
my.sentiments. Arrived at the grave, I do
not wish any discourse nor eulomun to be pro
monnced over the tomb:u-- - -- -
A criticism on Sainte-Beuve in the Avenir
Nationa4 terminates as follows:
Like all those who,. prcift.....ssin,g disdain of
politics and social pinision,have no attachment
to life beyond their individual passions and
personal interests, 3lons. Sainte-Beuve over
inclined to the side of.him who grasped the
power,
not by conviction, but in hopes of an
officialsituatien., Since 1852, the title of Sen
ator had been his besetting, desire. To obtain
it he spared netting,' and he 3marchea for It,
like Sixtiis the Ififth with stooping back. His
end.. attained, he ,tuts lifted himself , ,again.
'What would he not have gained to have stood
upright sooner!
• till, we must- remember that aiming the
letters addressed to the Senate, it was Sainte-
Bettye alone who defended, in two celebrated
discourses, the rights of the press . and of
opinion. Bin in what times do we live, that,
at the hour when Saintoßeuve dies, people
as.
members,,
that in an Assembly where authors sit as.
members, there rests to US no longer a single
defender of the cause of free letters rand free

'Release of the Steamer Lillian.'
We translate .the_following lines_ from _the
Cuban paper La. Revolucton, of yesterday:
"We are able to assure our readers that the
Cuban' man-of-war Cespedes, or Lillian,. has
_been released by the British authorities of
Nassau!' ,
We publish this fact in order to show that
what/ the, newspapem here said .About this
steamer, that she Was to be
,considered as a
pirate by the` tribunal of New Providence, is
entirely false. We repeat that this last fact IS
not true, •and that the Cuban raan•of-"war

Column Under Colonel Quiros.
• TnneinAtt, bet. 20s 1869.-1 do not know that
I can better dentibe to you the situation of
ailitirs hi this vicinity than by quoting from a
very significant article of the Imparcial, a
Spanish journal of this city, which appeared
in its issue of the 17th. Let inn premise that
the hard words concerning the insurgents,
who are carrying on the war, accordingto the
best light they have, are of - the paper and not
my own: - ,
- "What has passed in the neighborhood of
Trinidad for the last three months it is impos
sible to. believe . without having seen. This.
place, of 14,000 inhabitants, has a battalion of
volunteers, a body of Bomberos (armed fire
men), and a section of cavalry, and yet it and
the country about is under the contrel of a
party of incendiaries and assassins, who. are
lords of the , soil. Not a man can go to bathe
in the river between the. hill La Vigia (on
which the city is situated—Tn.AriseAxon) and
those opposite, without exposing himself to •
be•killed or. captured. This pass, which is as
smooth as the palm of the hand• and of no
greater size than two kilometers long and one
broad, has been the scene, day after, day, of
incendiarism- and assassinations which
have been recorded in these cofincruis:
Commencing at the shop, situated out towards
the river Canes, which we have seen burned,
there followed an attempt to burn the bridge
on the railroad ; the firing of the estate Abajo,
at the far end of the pass ; of the other
bridges on the railroad by Papayal; the houses
on the country estate of his .Excellency Selior
Don Justo G. Cantero, and, in conclusion ) the
hundred attacks on laborers on the different
estates situated within, this small radios—dll
committed without interruption or without
rie's anT assassins, eil3°ne ,
who only atteck.netred..cla-e—
-fenceless and the solitary. This has convinced
us that uplreis the system of . operations is
changed here these burnings and other crimes
such as were, perpetrated on the estate La
Pastore yesterday, within two kilometres of
this city, will continue."
What the Imparcial herein refers to as hap-
_pening at La _Pastora , maysbessummednp-hi a
word. YeSterday a negro came in and re
ported the presence of a band of insurgents,
by whom he had been seized and tied, but
had made his escape. A detachment of vol
unteers went out, did not come up with,
the insurgents. They found one Chinaman
dead and two mortally wounded. The latter.
were brought here, and one of them has since
died. That the sallies of the volunteers from
this city in pursuit of the insurrects, and, in
deed, the character of the operations through
out the jurisdiction and others in the vicinity,
have been wofully defective, is certaitt. Its
admisgon is significant, and shows either the
weakness of 'the Spaniards or the wisdom of
the insurgents in selecting a style of warfare
against which their enemies can do nothing
The column of eight, hundred men, which,
following the late visit of Lesca, went out, on
the 14th under coimimnd t pf Colonel Demetrio -
Quiros, in pursuit. of the insurgents ) have re
turned without seeing any enemy. They
marched to a point in the mountains,which
the insurgents style the "Sebitetopol of the
Cinco Villas;" but found it deserted, and then
returned again without having accomplished
anything. The same old story, and so it is like
to continue:—Herald. ,
The Cnhans in New York.
Soifer Nestor' Ponce de -Leon, the well
known-Goban-journalist-and publiciet, writes
to the Tribune that, the progranune purporting
tb be his, and sent by the Captain-General to
his agent at Washington, is "spurious and of
Spanish fabrication. This document.repre
sents that Selior Ponce is a member of the
Cuban Junta, which is not true, and it advo
cates Chinese immigration, which never bad
a more earnest opponent than he. Seiler Ponces
has denounced the malicious - misuse of his
name in a lett& to the Vox de Cuba, and as
sures his -American friends, with proper in
dignation, that he could not bade written the
stupid forgery. A meeting of Cubans is re
ported to have been held yesterday for the
purpose of condemntng the Junta. The ill- I
fated Gardiner's Island expedition, the failure
of the war-steamer Hornet, and the misman
agement of the Lilian enterprise, are pointed
out as the cause of this action. In tins latter
it is complained. that a band of filibusters,
have been left on one of the desert' keys
of Florida to await the uncertain reap
pearance of the steamer Lilian,, the mutiny
„aboard which, it is charged,, was disgraceful.
Col Cristo, supposed to have gone with this
Lilian expedition, has returned to New York,
The Junta, though composed of petriotic men,
is charged with a want of secrecy and de
spatch, and some' of the Cubans--a consider
able number of whom remain in New York—
are anxious that the chief powers of their
cause shall be vested in ono able man, well
assisted, but with diseretionary la.culti es. The
steamer Morro Castle (whose lonirser we have
to thank for papers)-has brought accessions to
the Cuban rinks in New York(,
THE BQW AT. SALT LAKE.
Signs of tholirlies--ComingEwentsand
their hh adows.
SALT LAKE: CITY; Oct. I.l.—The .atmosphere
of Utah is laden with "portents dire," augur
ing . a speedy breaking up of the Mormon
hierarchy. ' First, the outspoken denUnCiation
of polygamy by Vice-President Colfax fell
like a 'tomb-shell into the camp, and Was
an admonition' by •no means to be
slighted. As an illustration of its 'effect;
witnessed the following..l Itch) ent -:—E.
Sloan, a Mormon, and local editor - of the
Telegraph, feeling aggrieved at the applause
with which the "Gentiles" received Mr.
fax , 's - retnar.ks,Made an observation to ths ef
fect that those present were nothing but a set
of thieves and vagabonds. Mr. Sloan was
roughly handed by 'one of the. bystanders,
who was arrested, carried before a Mormon
Justice of the,Peace, and fined $l4 for. the as
sault. The second tivent Of recent occurrnce,
and of- significance, , • is the... excommuni
cation of several ---leading . men - in
the Mormon Church.' A - short time
ago, T. B. H. Stenhouse, editor of the Salt
Luke Telegrcrph, Win. S. Godbe, a leading Mor
mon merchant, E. L. Harrison and E. W.
Tullidge, editors and proprietors of the Utah
Alogaztne, William Dunbar and Robert Nes
lin, actors in Brigham's theatre were called
upon to answer for contumacious conduct
toward the Church authorities, and, failing to
make a good delence,•were solemnly excom
mmaicated.' Their real offence seems to haVe
been an attempt to . make a profit on their
individual account, which did not suit
the • Elders. Dr. Taggart, - ,the new
Assessor of Internal Revenue;•loOks sharp,
after, the Mormons on the Revenue question,
and is cordially hated by Brigham and his fol
loweni for the .deter_naination , he has mani
fested to make the Mormon' Church and peo

oY the :existence of an extenif 7 -:;‘* hand of coun
. terfeitera' t having its ranilficaticms in almost all
of the principaleities and towns' of the West
end South. ' For monthsthe.United-States de
tectives have been Constantly on ' the alert, in
hopesof arresting sonae' of the leaders of the
gapg,:btrt , without avail, until at last it,almost
appealed that
,the violators of • the law could
work with; imipunity... Redently, merely „by,
- chance, the of fi cers became convinced that a
-nian•named "Ssae Levi, a resident of OsgoOd,
Ind:, *ha one, if not the main' leader, of the
' mysterions gang, and after eensultation it was
agreed upon to keep the elosest watch of his
nievensents,which was done,and, as the sequel
will show, with perfect Success, - •
From certain movements of Levi, las t' week .
the officers concluded that he was on the
point Of making a trip, and ,by the I - greatest
Shrewdness saw him take the:train and come
to this city, putting up on Saturday at • the
Walnut Street House. Knowingthe game to
be perfectly safe, and to avoid the least possi
ble chance, the servants of, the law allowed
matters to remain _perfectly, quiet until this'
morning,' when Officer Gus Colcher. and .
United States Deputy Marshal proceeded to
the Walnut Street House for the purpose of
making the arrest.
. On opening the door of• Levi's rooni they
found him and another fellow, named Clark,
in the act of assorting. out and counting a
• large amount of greenbacks of the denomina
tions of five , tees, twenties and fifties, For •
a Moment Levi, who is said to be the most
powerful man physicalklin the State of Indi
ana, seemed determined on resistance, but the
coolness of the otlicersibacked by the presence
of a couple of cocked revolvers, changed his
notion, and both the men quietly consented to
have the ,bracelets placed on their wrists.
The officers at once took their birds, with
their booty, before United States Commis
sioner Halliday, who, after a preliminary ex
ordination, committed . the men to the County
Jail in default of 1 -..10,000 bail each.
Clark, the confederate of Levi, is a very
genteel looking fellow and the last man in
the world who woule-be taken for a "shover
of the queer."
Welook - upon - this — arres as a most im
portant ever made in this, section of the coun
try, as it is the entering wedge toward ,hieak
mg up the most powerful band of counter ;
festers ever organized in the Union.
Levi has long been under the surveillance of
tbe.police, and, if we mistake not, has already
Nerved a "stretch" in the Kentucky State
Penitentiary at Frankfort. • - -
Clark - claims - that - he - was'inveigledinto - his
'new profession and that he can prove his pre
vious good character.
The amount of money captured is nearly
$12,000, which would have been ,passed upon

these arrests been made so ,opportunely,
Cariosity of the Prihiee of Waleq.
The extravagant curiosity of the Prince of
Wales to visit Tranpmann, the Wholesale
Paris murderer, appears to have stricken the
French, populace with something akin to
consternation. His request was very properly
denied, and the august suppliant -,was
compelled to return'home with his
morbid desire ungratified. This passion
•
for ~i ntervielving'""distinguis.'hed crinunals
is not altogether new in the history :;'of the
royal family of England, althongh,we believe;
it has slunthered,for many generations. We
can recall no other instance later than that of
James the First,who not only prepared the ex
amination of Guy .Fawkes, but, according to
tradition, often visited that explosive male
factor in the dungeon of Little Ease, and was,
moreover, accustomed to regale himself of
an afternoon.. by going down to the torture
cells of the Tower and luxuriating in the
• „-a-sit • • ruse who suffered by the rack.
Scenes like, these, of course, can never recur,
but, the revived spectacle of au intimate com
munication between murderers and monarchs
woidd be one not calculated to add to the
enlightenment of the nineteenth century,

ItE3IOVAL OP Tin: CAPITOL.
Ie :Various Opinions on the Subject.
The Tribune says :
If the• Capitol of the United States' is to be
removed to the Valley of the West, or, in
deed, to - any other location, - it is, for a hun
dred reasons, desirable that all preliminary
discussions of the measure should be con
ducted in an amicable spirit, and that • all
sectional feeling regarding the question
should, for the sake of our future, safety,
be disconraged. We therefore regret to find
• one or two gentlemen in the Convent„ien
at St. Louis talking in <-a tone of semi-:
secession, and using a - kind of argument
which too much resembles threatening. The
Lresence of Mr. Stuart, of Alabama, in the
i2onvention was, to say the least, ominous, for
Mr. Stuart was a noted Secessionist, and he
took no palms to conceal the fact front the del
creates, hat avowed it with an .
pieivant sort :of bravado: Again, Mr.
Eagan, of St. LOUL9, was exceedingly
violent in his denunciation of • the
Eastern States, from which he plaimed that
the West (and South also) had "suffered
nothing lint wrong, and outrage," It is no.
wonder that the warmestfriends of the West
and Southwest' 'Were alarmed by the turn
which the disermions were taking,' or . that
Gov. Pile, of New Mexico, advised the Con
vention not to provoke the enmity
of the West , until it knew better
the. real state ' of Eastern opinion.
The "wrong" and , outrage" which the West
has suffered at the hands of the seaboard
States has consisted mainly in an unlimited
supply of money , and an 'equally 'unlimited
supply of men, without which there would
have been no West to speak of at all. How
ever, until it is absolutely necessary, we shall
not suffer ourselve.s to be betrayed into re-"
crimination ,-- Tl2o7Matter is too important for
a passionate consideration.

Fulmination Against OperatiC Haste in
Chnrehes—All the, Good, Tunes in the
Hands of Satan. '' '
It is said that a number of the archbishops„
bishops and priests who have recently sailed
from the Unit&l'Statas to tale part - in the
(Ecumenical Council will introduce the sub
ject of operatic music in churches, with a
view of having it condensed by a decree.
Many or the clergy object to snail , music on
the ground that, it `not ' only distuits
the devotions of , the worshippers, .but
removes their thoughts from.; the 'altar
to the organ and the choir: Theia
are few. Catholic Churches in this city' where
the services are accompanied by florid music,
and their congregations are not larger than
those of other temples. It is a sipificant fact
that the :majority of. Episcopal bishops of the
Enited iVites are also./opposed to operatic
music in the climehes, and one of thenumber,
Bishop Potter,has r watedly denounced it.'
I:et some of the liftt odist revivalist clergy
still lament the fact'that all the, really inspir
ing music is in the hands of Satan.—Sun.

PARIS IIIPPODIe0MR: -
Plans have been submitted for a new
,p
-pcdroine in Paris, to take the place of the ugly
wooden structure recently, happily, destroyed
by fire. The new building is to be made en—
tirely of iron and stone, and is to be adapted
not only to exhibitions of wild animals, to
tournaments and acrobatic performances, but
also to sea pieces. A spectacle called "The
Isthmus of Suez," which has long been inpre
parati on, will probably be the first of the pieces
in which water will be introduced. It
is hoped that the building may even be so far
advanced by the middle of November as to.
admit of the first performance of this spectacle
taking place on the same day with the open
ing of the canal. A series of tableaux, is con
templated, all relating to Egypt, and calling
for the introduction of water in large quanti
ties. We...are_to_beshostructiou of
Pharaoh's army in the Red Sea, the cataracts
, of the Nile, and the inundation of the Nile.
FRENCH IN THR . BRITIEHI NAVY
A refreshing story is told by the London
Times of the state of education in the British
navy. It appears that when the French fleet
visited Spfithead the admiral in command of
the EngliSh fleet signaled to all the ofiicers of
the snug:lron who could speak French to ac
company the pilots on board the French
vessels. But one officer answered the signal.
cnE.Enr 1.71. AMUSEMENTS.
An exchange says:
The German town of Barmen must be t
cheerful place to live in. At least, such is the
inference from the peculiar amusements which
it would appear from recent proceedings in
the police court, occasionally occur there. A
gentleman was charged with biting off two
inches of a cat's tail, the animal being held at
the same time by another '° gentleman." The
Berghs of Wupperthal instituted a prosecu
tion against these beings, who pleaded in de
fence that the biter bad made a bet that he
would do it, and that a reduction in the length
of the animal's tail would benefit it. For the
gratification of the cats the , biter and his
accomplice were fined $2O.
YOUNG PIIETENDERS,
The New York World says : -
A pair of "YOung ; Pretenders" have turned
up inLondon, and are to be found constantly
in the British Museum. Their names are John
Sobreski Stuart and; Edward Stuart,
and their history is thus told by our authority,
the Guardkm : Charles Edward, the only ori
ginal "Young • Preteuder," married in Italy, in
1772, Princess Louise, of Stolberg, daughter
of Gustavus Adolphus, Prince of. Stol
berg-Gedern, and maternally allied to the
irm es, - 11117i3 a son was born of this mar
riage, at Sienna, and for state reasons the fact
was kept a secret. The child was brought on'
board an English frigate, and subsequently
educated'as the,child of the, commander, Ad
miral O'Halloran. After Wards this child was
brought to Scotland. Having grown up he
was married to an English lady, and so late as
was living. His children are - the Stuarts
alluded to.
A TAX ON DOGS.
tThe proposition to put a tax on dogs is
made in some quarters, for the benefit of the
nation at large.
.It is estimated that there are
six 'millions of dogs in the United States.
Levy a tax of orie dollar on each of these ani
mals, and you have an annual income equal
to the currency interest on 5100,000,000
of the national debt. This 'calculation rather
savors of the Micawber school of finance. Of
the six million dogs said to be- in existence;
how many are there for which anybody
would be: willing 'to pay - a dollar r? The
friend and companion of man is soon much
oftener in English households than in this
country, and yet the dog tax in England pro
duces; comparatively, a more trifle. It is
evaded under all sorts ,of pretexts, and is alto
gether more bother than it is worth. Besides,
is there not a sufficient number of things
taxed already? The wise course would be to
reduce that number, and make up for the loss
by a judicious redistribution of taxes. Several
States have a dog tax' now, but we had better
not look to that source for any additions to the
national exchequer.—.W. Times.
THIS, CZAR NICHOLAS.
Stories of the Emperor Nicholas continue to
appear. The latest used to be attributed in
our school days to Frederick the Great—but
no matter. :Nicholas, it is said, was roaming
about the barracks incog. ono evening, and
saw through tu open door oneof his. best offi
cers asleep with, his head on a table .and with
a manuscript before him. The Czar
stole in and found that it was

"Who will pay the sum?" . over which the
officer had evidently puzzled himself to ex

"Nicholas," a. 4 an answer, and went away.

The young man awoke, aStondedat the dread
