Kit Burns and his obscene companions, who
still bold possession of the adjacent premises,
freely olaurgating, expectorating their deep
disbaist at the whole proeeedings,and sincerely
feeling that the 'dark daye of the profession
have come down upon them. Meanwhile the
front door is crowded. with the forms of the'
staring bullies and the livid daylight faces of
the female denizens of the haunt. .Azulfinally,
- to - ecarepiela dui iii igine tidy
firs. Burns tangling her well-gotten gains into
the old tea-pot or stocking, and trying to si
lence the three heavy dogs I observed there.
As different as possible from this scene of
holy zeal and thronging was the artistic se,
elusion, the home-feeling and introversion, of
two weeks ago. Let me hasten to say that' I
am going to describe no affair of rat-hunting;
that our visit was on one of the off-nights
when there was no baiting, and that if there
had been a baiting I should not have been
there.
"Ito sport to-night, I see?" said. Sergeant
Carr, giving his elegant beaver a polite tilt
over one ear that stood perfectly for 'the most
ceremonious uncovering. '
" No," said Kat, clearing his nose lity,ta neat
and natural impulse, "we're all quiet to-night,
and the rats is at the theayter." •
The Snuggery into which we had passed.
was exceedingly small, and it lay behind a
Bar that was a curiosity of straitness and
simplicity. But it was all perfect in its way.
I have called the, sfclusiou artistic, meaning ,
that'it was permeated with a sense or essence
of rat-chasing. Thai' place, in fact, was dark,
and smelt of dogs. A bar that does not smell
of brandy, but breathes of bull-clogs, I suppose
to be the criterion and definition of a sporting
haunt.
The Snuggery had a table, a stove, and a
chair or two. The stove was sparkling a'
brilliant red, the glow coming out strong in
the dim apartment. The table * on examina
tion, .turned out to be a kind of dogatense.
dark brindled beast with no . ' Superfluities
about him—no ears and no tail to run to waste
—was lying under it, making aqueous noises
over a bone and all the time nearly concealed
in the skirts of the clean and comely piece of
wife-flesh who was sitting at the table and
keeping the dog company. Kit presented us
to his lady ; we ilia the knowing nods and
grins which go to the ceremony of presenta
tion in such a company, and now that I have
got man and wife together on the scene I will
introduce, them both.
Kit Burns is stout, roly-poly, genial, thirty
five, black-haired and 'right pleasant,looking
in good humor. His round red cheek, olive
torehead - and pug nose have been gone over
by the tool of the small-pox, leaving a kind of
stippling or thimble-printing on the skin. His
short black hair and whiskers are in oily
condition, and, like most sports, ho wears the
newest, surliest and glossiest •silk hat. that
'Knox can build or money can procure. Un
der all this easy adipose and trimming you
see the jaw, the skull, and the i facial angle of
the prize-fighter. It was somehow made evi
dent to me, also, that if we had been in other
company the manner.could have been differ
ent, that the genial blandness would have
been gone, and that the cunning, eye, now
twinkling like the cushion of ink in the neck
elan inkstand, would hat-e grown deep and
sullen. F

solitary hearihs, "and, hear the peoPle prais

subdue her mind to the quality - of her lord ;to
..slice the raw veal for his 'doge, and 'become
warmly interested in their qualities; to .l a
close and heavy handon whatever cash comes
into the_ till or, limps out of the betting-,
book; and some day, as an . apotheosis,

pie whole place, Bar and Snuggery, had its
walls quite covered with prize-fighters in lith
ograph. The. , -prints were neatly framed, and
hung everywhere, to,the nbritber of perhaps
a hundred,tieffeSr it They formed the Gem
plate History of the. Bing, to a very early
date. "Here's a condle," quotk Mrs. Burns,
i‘ ye can't, rightly see(`tiro." .
And :she lighted us around the historic
walls, flashing the candle on the brawny
breasui oi •the heroeS, and coming out strong
in fmecdote and allusion.,,. Poor obscure soul,
they were the goda of. her, Olympus, and she
knew their lives as a pious Roman matron
kney, the stories we find in Ovid, or
as a Beecher - knows B,ox's Martyrology.
Then Kit came up, and put in stories about
the fighters be' had met in the old country and
here. This one he bad broken the nose .of
himself, and this one he had seen swallow the
finger-nail 'of that - other one. The portraits
represented the course ,of British • art, from
the day of George IV., when At , was impossi
ble to represent even a fighter's head without
a byacintbine row of , curls, nor his calves and
bust without a gentlemanly and ornamental.
swelling Impossible in anatomy, to the, - more
photographic and literal portraits of Sayers
and Mace. _Among their glowing bodies were
stuck, here and there, the dusky silhouettes of
-Ltbters,-- honoredc - garo
among pearls.
We passed out through the bar, leaving Mrs.
Burns motherly and pensive among the dogs.
As I was turning a glass of fragrant liquor
deftly into a dark corner, Kit pointed to 'a
handsome photograph, handsomely framed,
over his head. It represented a man in fault
less broadcloth, his large hands cased in kid
gloves, his hair and mutton-chops dyed black,
and surrounding a seamed, vulgar, and middle
aged face,—au illustration of Amory, in the
novel of "Pendennie.” Kit Burns, in indi.
eating this figure, wore an air of real respect
and affection, tempered with an evident de
sire to seem familiar and off-hand.
"I ain't dined with him,' said he in , a
low
devout tone," for some time; not sinoe,he and
Mace and me was all tight together is'
It was the Honorable Mr. Morrissey.- •
In conclusion, I must state the ground of
• Mr. Burns's Lament, which he performed for
ns with a great deal of feeling, like an Indian
captive's death-chant. The neighborhood, he
told, ever since Mr. Dyer, and john
and that lot, was losing ground. There
wasn't half the crowds at his Rat-Pit., People
was holding back, afraid ; or going and staring
at the prayer-meetings. The butiket+ehOPs
was Comparatively deserted. The girls really
did go and learn the psalm-singing. The good
old times was gone, - and it - WAS Johnny Allen
and the white chokers had done it all
' And so, with agleam of real hope, we tilted
our hats over the opposite ear, and took our
leave.

A Mass MI
Aeolis's at Fort liorry.-Letter of
Sir 'John Voting.
The _Veto Nation, of Jan. !l, contains the re
port of a mass-meeting at Fort Garry. 'So
many were present that it was necessary to
hold the meeting in the (ten air, though the
thermometer stood 20 -degrees below zero.
The chief business of the meotingwas to hear
the letters of Sit John Young and otherti
which Mr. Donald Smith had brought with
him as Commissioner of the Domin
ion Government. Sir John Young
writes : Yon - may - State; with - - the
utmost confidence, that the Imperial Gov
ernment has no'intention of acting, otherwise
—or permitting others to act otherwise—than
in perfect good faith toward the inhabitants
of the Red River District of the' Northwest.
The people may rely upon it that respect and
protection will be extended to the different
religions perseasions—poud cheersl--- that
titles to every description of property will be
perfectly Guarded—[renewed cheers[—and
that all the franchises which have existed, ,
or • which the people may prove
themselves qualified to exercise, shall be
duly continued or liberally conferred."
After the reading of the letters Mr. Riel
moved that twenty representatives be chosen
by the .English population of Red River to
meet twenty other representatives of the
French population, on the 211th, to decide
what would be best for the welfare of -the
country.;
Father ftichot said that he was glad to be pre
sent with the Bishop of Ruperrs Land and the
clergy of various denominations. All, he be
lieved, came there with the best' interests of
the people at heart. They came there to see
that order and good feeling prevailing, and to
influence the people as far as they could in the
direction Of what was right and, just. [Loud
cheers.]
Bishop Machray was sure that every one
would heartily respond to the kind feeling ex
pressed, apd do what was possible to promote
union and concord: [Loud cheers.] The rights
of all present were the same and 'on all rea
sonable propositions there cctild' not be very
much difference' of opinion: [Cheers.] For
his partrhe bad the , greatest) hope that their
coming together on, that oceasion„and their

Gnienv Flourenn..-1111. Inhere in the Be.
cent alintalfestations.
The principal leader in the revolutionary
movement, Gustav Flourens, is a journalist,
and was, until recently, one of M. Itoehefort's
associates on the Marseillaise. He is a tall,
powerful man, and of an impulsive,' reckless
pieposition. - Like better men, he - appears - to
possess the character of a leader who can pre
' cipitate revolution and cotitmand popular re.
seot. The present Manifestations anti M.
lourens'sl ehare•in them are both inseparable
from the funeral of Victor Noir. On that
occasion, as M. Rochefort has since explained
in, the, liffirseillaise there , was a difference of
~opinion as the course to be pursued. One aide
was in favor of proceeding to Paris with the
funeral, which meant an immediate upriidug
_of the people; the other desired to have the
demonstration to retain .its pacific character.
The multitude consulted M. Rochefort, which
he regards as evidence, that it was not
the favorable moment for a rising in Paris,
for, he says, when "a crowd is deter
mined to act, it consults no one." Beside-e,
he . knew that 100,000 soldiers and
all the cannon imaginable had been placed
in requisition. The assemblage were nearly
all unarmed, and being at Neuilly would have
had in a manner to besiege Paris to secure
the stratgetic noints where a conflict , could be
maintained The main divergence in opinion
between Rochefort and . Flourens on this
occasion was, however, because the intended
movement on the morrow bad been referred
to public meetings on the previous evening..
Rochefort regarded the intimation . to the
police thus imp_rudently given as fatal to
success, _ while Flourens was for immediate
action. , The funeral, as isknown, proceeded
to Neuilly, and on the next day Gustav
Flourens wrote to the Marseillaise:
, !My Pear Ilabeneck: I will thank you to he
good enough to announce that from to-day I
am completely disconnected with the manage
intuit of the .3fatseillaise."
On leavieg the Marseillaise Gustav Flourens
joined the Reforme, in which he published
from his point of view the incidents attending
*Victor Noir's funeral,and gave his opinion on
the course pursued. The most important pas
sages in this account show that although the
French Government has imprisoned Roche
fort, it has a determined adversary 'still at
large. "Louis Noir," he relates, " said to Jules
.Valet, de Beaumont, and me, on` the eve of
the funeral day, How deeply I regret that
my brother was not carried to Paris at the
moment of his assassination! If it has not
been done,_ it .. is not. through- any• want of
willingness en my part.' We adjured him in
the name of his declaration, in the name of
fraternal friendship and democracy in its en—
tirety, not to allow the tragedy to finish in a
comedy by a discourse over the tomb—that
his poor brother week% be assassinated 'a
second time by an unworthy burial. Louis
_Noir fi rst replied negatively, and then With
bitternesi,representing that we wanted to place
oureelves in opposition to Rochefort and
Pelenitize,•agamst the will of the people, and
after, the head of the party had efecided. At
the same time we were assailed by men more
than suspected—the seine Who a little later
helped to cry 'Down Rochefort,' and aided to
detach the horses and draw the funeral car.
toward Neuilly. These 'men, shouting Mid
gesticulating, endeavored even, to provoke a
were dragged 'from their'
Mande by the intervention of our friends from
Belleville and t thp Faubourg St. Antoine."
Another passage ,shows ids acquaintance
with police stratagem s , and his impulsive dis
position:
" The convoy at this moment entered the
avenue leading - te• the cemetery of Neuilly. In
order to be more.certain that tt should not go
toward Pa.rls, the , police, under the pretext of
honoring our had w:sisted in de:
taching the beam
"The hour waif :Supreme. The blood of
Noir would be avenged by the democracy,and
would have aided to avenge itself and other
crimes• while on the other side, the punish
ment of the , crime would be remitted to the
High Court of Justice! Bitter and sorrowful
burlesque! When Pietri's (the Chief of Po
lice) men saw us again they cried, a Neuilly,'
• a Neuilly.' They threatened US, showed their
lists, and insulted us. As we approached the
funeral-car they precipitated themselves
on us, and we were about to dispose
of some ,of the wretches with our re
volver,, When a .number of friends
rejoining us frightened the cowards,andaided
us personally to mount the fnneral car to say
to the crowd that, we would go to Paris. At
this reomentLouis Noir, borne on the shoul
ders of two citizens, returned, addressed us
. violently, and called 1710 a profaner. Which
of the two vendee profaned the remains of the
victim, :those who would conduct him to
Isieuilly as Emile 011ivier himself had • wished,
or those whq desired to have proceed from
this assassination, vengeance and the end of
all assassins?"
This difference of opinion has not , how
ever, prevented Flourens from espousing the
cause of the Rochefort. As three
of the editors of, the Refornie were sentenced
to six and the manager to seven months' im
prisonment .lest -month,- he had additional
reason to desire the downfall of a Govern
ment which has now marked out _himself for
the same fate.
Hie View, of Annexation Generally.
A reporter of the New York World has been
interviewing" Senator Sumner. From:his
report we extract the following. After as
serting that our recognition of Cuba would
cause an instant declaration, of war from
Spain, Mr. Sumner was asked :
C.—But, Mr. Senator, could Spain possibly
maintain such a war with the present lqw state
of her public credit; and would not the cer
tainty, of the application of the lex talionis, be
sufficient to deter her from any such extreme
course as the one you suggest?
Mr. s.—f do not think that Spain would stop
to consider consequences. This same Castil
lian pride,which I referred to a moment , ago,
would pr,obabl,y blind her to all possible re- ,
sults, and until her honor was satisfied she
would struggle'en to the bitter end. After ail,
I am not so sure as to who would come out first
best in the event ofd contest between us and Spain.
She certainly has very little to lose, while we
have everything. We might, and probably
should, crush .berOlt the seas, but the victory
would be like.that Pyrrhustl-not to be re.
peated too often. ,
C.—How long, sir, do 'yp suppose thatsuch
a war would last?
Mr. S.—Until Spain felt that her honer was
vindicated. Itmight be
,limited to a few de
cisive battles on the high seas, and perhaps a
single battle on th Island of (Jab& Her honor
thus satisfied, she would then, I think, let
Cuba go gladly.' • • •
Cl.—Do you not look forward to the nit'.

the present attitude of the Go_ternMent on the
Cuban question may be found in the proba,

belligerent rights to Cuba 'would probably eti

Mr. B.—Such is the view I entertain of the
Case, and, as the administration holds to the
same opinion, its line of policy may be fore
shadowed by what I have been telling you.
Cuba is vary far from being in a position
.where she can demand recognition from as,
and we shall be in no hurry to force an issue.
I would not have it understood, however, that
the recognition of Cuba is an impossibility,
but for the present, at least, a strong improba,

Operations During .1 - 4.nuar7.
The Tittisville ,herald has the following re
port for the month ending January 31, 1810 :
The Production.
There was a moderate and general recession
during January iti the yield of the old districts,
whibli exceeded by about two hundred barrels
daily the increase in the newer districts. The
total product as shown by the shipments and
the difference in stocka, was 391,694 barrels; a
daily average of 12,631 barrels, against 12,814
illarrels, the daily average for December.
The yield in the Pithole and Bean farm,
Tidioute and Church run districts, as well as
in the vicinity of Oil City and Shaffer and
Charley runs, and at Foster farm and Scrub
grass, did not present any material variation
from that during the preceding month. But
on most of the farms along Oil. Creek and
Lower- Cherry and. Cherrytree runs, ;there
was a decrease which ranged from ten to one
hundred barrels. Chi Upper Cherry the yield
of three-of the farras fell off; but that of all'
the others either remained about stationary,
or else increased.
At Parker's ,Landing there was an increase
of about Ail), barrels. The daily average Of this
district, as shown by the shipments and the
differeece between stocks, was about 1,220
barrels; against 960, the daily average for the
previous month.- ln this district very; nearly
all the wells sunk have produced in paying
qnautities. The number of wells producing
On the Ist inst. was about one hundred and
sixty-
Ike Development owl the Territory;
Wine the number of wells completed
during January was about one-third less than
the monthly average for last year, the number
of wells which produced in paying quantities
was as large as usual. The number in pro
cess of drilling on the Ist ivat. was 24 in ex
,cess of that on the first day of January. •
There were two important discoveries of
territory made, and two or three of the old
districts were greatly enlarged. The new dis
tricts are located on Calaboose rim, about one
mile and a half from. Oil City, and the other
about the same distance from Oil creek, and
about a mile north of the Sham burg district..
In both of these districts thirty-barrel wells
have been obtained.. The, yield its green iu
color and of about 18 gravity. The
bens, so far as observed in these neiv districts,
favor the opinion that both ;of them will be
lasting and yield largely.
The Steek.
The quantity of oil held in the oil region on
I the Ist inst. was about 2,000 barrels in excess
of that on the Ist ofJanuary,and about 70,000
larger than on February •Ist, 1801. The stock
at the wells fell off slightly, while that on the
hands of refiners increased on account of some
of, heta havingstockcd up preparatory to com
mencing to'operate their works. Thee quari-'
titv held in iron tankage was scarcely notice
ably altered. The total stock was 342,390
barrels. The amount held in. wooden storage'
tanks and in the hands of refiners was 35,000
barrels and was located as under : at Miller,
2.200 barrels ; - at Pithole, 2,000 ; at Titusville,
10,000 ; on Bull Run, :300 ;.at Itynd farm, 1,500;
at MeClintoekville, 1,000; On the Blood farm,
600; on Cherrytree run, 4,100 ;. on Upper
Cherry run, 3,500.; at Pleasantville, 800; at Oil
City, 4,850;at. Ticlionte, 1,000; at Petroleum
Centre, 2,150; at Story farm, 800.
The Stilpiitentet.
At the beginning of the month most of the
outside refineries were bare of stock, and
hence there was a large demand from them
for the purpose of ace um ula ting stocks. 'Under
this demand the shipments to all points except
Pittsburgh, increased largely, but the total
shipment was only a little in excess of that for
December. The shipments to Cleveland
reached 114,000 barrels.
The total shipment . was 372,149 barrels of
forty-five gallons, against 292,06.1 barrels
during .Tanuary 113439.
The shipment of refined oil was 24;700 bar
rels, against 23,000 in December.
Exports.
The total 'export from New York from
January Ist to February sth, and from all
other ports to Januaryl.lltb, 1870, was 5.33,000
gallons against 5,1'15,000 gallons during the
same time in 184J9.
OCEAN CABLES.
Proposed Enterprises.
Exclusive of the two Atlantic cable cempa,
nkw, not leas than ton submarine telegraph
schemes, with a capital of 535,000,000, have
been promoted or completed within a few
months. The capital of the British Indian
submarine telegraph from Suez to Aden and
Bombay is alone put down at $19,000,000; the
Falmouth, Malta and Gibraltar line at 5 3 , 9 0 0 ,-
000 ; the West India and Panama line at 53,-
300,600; the British Indian extension from
Ceylon to Singapore, at,V4,500,000;
,the
submarine telegraph atS4,oll,oon; the China
and Japan extension of the Great Northern
Telegraph atif3,500,000, And the' Panama ,and
South Pacific at 41,V00,000. Thrf'wonderfnl
