THURSDAY, OCTOBER 13, 1864.
AFTER THE BATTXE.
"We think we know enough of .the re
"ttfrhs from the States of Indiana, Ohio, and
Pennsylvania to enable us- to say that the
Union party has achieved a, great triumph.,
Pennsylvania held the centre of the great
column,, and against Pennsylvania every
device that 'energy or desperation could
■ suggest has 1 been 5 used. We’ have stood
the burden of the assault, and have tri
umphed, although with a greater loss than
• any of; the other columns; We are rather
■proud of the honor the enemy has done us,
for we ask no higher duty than to guard
the flag. We know that in our State the
•enemy has done' the uttermost. \ AH that
money, and daring, and audacity, and mis
representation could do has been done.
'The flag- still,floats, and Pennsylvania is
true to the Union. >
We must ,pot ,be content with •this tri
'umph. .It will do, but we can do better.
Lancaster and Crawford . and Erie and
Chester must not be satisfied with reduced
majorities.; There is no reason why these
Counties should not-have' held their own,
evenwjth the absence' of the soldiers in the
army and- the militia doing service as
men, We. are convinced
that, if there had been a proper organiza
tion— even if our . friends had fully appre
ciated the moral importance of the eeftrtest
as it Affects the great contest of November— :
we would have surpassed Governor Cur
tin's majority in 1868, and had the soldiers’
vote to spare. We perfectly understand
the suggestion that many thousands of the
voters last year are now in the army, and
will be counted eventual! y • hut we' still
think that proper organization-would have
enabled'us to retktn the old majority.: In
the city of Philadelphia wo see what good
management has done. Here, and here
alone, let us sayit with deference and with
no desire to criticise, has the campaign
been properly managed. This wo may at
tribute to the. magnificent exertions of the
-Union League, the local committees, and
the presence of General Cameron and his
committee. All the agencies that operated
against the interior counties were more
powerful in Ph iladclphia. Since the last
election we have sent ten thousand men to:
the war, and yet the places of these men
have not only been supplied, but the majo
rity has been increased.' Now, why has
not this been done in the State ?
Let this pass. We have the State on the
"home as well as the soldiers’ vote. “It is
not so deep as a well, nor so wide as a
church door ; but ’tis enough—’twill
serve.” November is coming, and the
great battle—a battlecompared with which
the contest of Tuesday was .a mere skir
mish—is at handf We must take no breath
ing time. Let the battle open at once with;
a fire along the whole line! We must"
begin immediately the work of organiza
tion. The enemy has sho wh its full strength,
and we know whereto concentrate our fire.
See what: has been done in Indiana and
Ohiot Surely Pennsylvania can do better,
and she mast do better. 'lt is not enough
: that we defeat this New Jersey politician,
McClellan ; but we must utterly over
whelm him. We-must; if possible, prevent
Mm from having a sipgle vote iii the ?3Slec
toral College. "We want not merely vie-,
tory, hut triumphant victory, and Penn
sylvania must lead the column.
Friends, let uu strike hands and join; in
this duty. You appreciate the cause; at
stake —you know how dear and precious
this republic is to all true men—you know
that if we fail in the civil contest, nil that
armies and navies have gained will pass
away like the frosts of spring. 1 You do
notneed words of instruction ; is it possi
ble you need any word of entreaty? We
point you to the goal; must we compel you
to take the path? All we need to gain an
overwlielmin g, j oyous, annihilating vic
tory, is confidence, energj , and courage.
Above all, let there be organization. Wo
have- fifty thousand Union majority in
Pennsylvania, and the campaign can be so
managed that this majority will elect the
Union electoral ticket in November. To
do this, toe must begin at once.
Our Irish Citizens.
To our Irish fellow-citizens who assisted
an the loyal victory at the polls, on Tues
day, we must pay, on behalf of the great
party of the Union, high and cordial praise.
Gn their almost unanimous support (espe
cially of those of the Catholic persuasion)
the Opposition confidently counted. But we
have to thank them for their candor and in-
•dependence as voters' and applaud them for.
the exemplary devotion they have shown
towards a Government which has never
failed to foster and . protect & down
trodden race, and towards a people never
unready or unwilling to answer the prayer
of the poo'r and the oppressed here or in
their native country. " America has been
consistently, partial to the cause of Irish
freedom; and no wonder, then, that so
many intelligent Irishmen and Catholics
recorded- their votes on Tuesday in favor
; of liberty for all men, rather than selfishly
accept -a boon which they were unwill
ing that others should share. Against
them was directed the persecution of their
'religious' neighbors, and of their former
political associations. Politicians of a bad
class attempted to bribe aijd brow-beat
them, and the most cunning arts of the de
magogue-were employed to pervert the
truths of both history and sense, and lead
them to make a-mpßt selfish and cowardly
surrender of all .that Irishmen had been
fighting for in the past. But they stood firm
against the appeals of. the very worst in
fluences: that have ever been wielded in
this country. They were that gallant
band 'of Irish Catholics, who, with many
eminent daymen of their faith, and
many noble ecclesiastics, have earnestly
endeavored to emancipate the Irish;people
from the shackles and shambles of the
.Democratic party. ;
We regret to turn from these -patriotic
men to those Irishmen, misled by dema
gogues, who array their party against .their
'country. They have allowed themselves to
fall too easily a prey to the dangerous and
"unnatural teachings of. the Copperhead fac
~ tion, and aie too cheaply valued by the
men who have betrayed them. They are
. /continually taught to assail the Government
. with wrongs which their own party has
inflicted upon every poor man and'
upon- the whole country,. by politicians
* who make weapons of their own crimes,
' and of the miseries which they cause,
to strike a blow at their political oppo
nents." There is-no cause or reason for;
the stand thu3 taken by many Irishmen,
for the question before us involves neither
race nor religion otherwise than in the mise
ries which would result to both should our
liberties be lost, and treason, rebellion, and
social disorder triumph. Let us hope that
we shall have no more such exhibitions
as have been lately - witnessed on the'
part of these misguided men, in -the
streets and at the polls, against their
own countrymen who supported /the
Government, and against the poor, inoffen
sive negroes: Such outrages should not
•enjoy the shield, of class, party, or race;
they are the result of a -senseless 'pre
judice, wanting in ordinary manhood
and decency." -Their, perpetrators,, let
us trust, will yet become outlaws even
/imong then; own brethren; for those
who in their cruelty to the black assail
the white man also,. leave no room fort
even a common prejudice to intervene, and
are enemies of all men. We earnestly depre-’
cate the bad taste which*leads bur foreign
citizens sometimes to do violence to peo
ple-who, whether humble or great, de
serve their fair respect as natives of the
soil, and to those intelligent and influ
ential classes of
laboring men, and men of wealth,
whose tried patriotism -and philanthropy
deserve their admiration and gratitude,
rather than their spite. We adnio-'
wish the excellent people among whom
these exhibitions, are permitted to occur
of the danger of becoming as intole
rant as the old Native Americans, whom
they once so fervently decried. We find
some reason, however, to express the hope :
that now, when the monstrous falsehoods,:
intrigues, and appeals to violence of such
; demagogues and hypocrites as Horatio
‘ Seymour, Wood, and John
: Van Buren have failed, they will gather a
wholesome warning from the result of
Tuesday’s election, and hereafter act’like
independent men. . '
“ More is thy Due than More than all
can Fay.”
We congratulate the eloquent and enter
prising gentlempn who came to Pennsyl
vania to convert it to Copperheadism upon
the success of their labors. Whereyer t)^ ey j
spoke they made good Union Voters out of
intelligent Democrats,; Mr.; Joiin Van'
Burbn made & very‘good speech at the
Continental Concert Saloon just before the
.election, and the Union majority in the city
is seven thousand. Governor Sbjmoub
appealed to Pennsylvanians with as much
courtesy and grace as if he were addressing
a body of New York rioters. The Penn
sylvanians- gave him a polite, but very
forcible reply.. Our r majority was cut
down several thousands by Mr. Val--
laedigham’s absence, it is true; but, then,
Mr. Bankin’s presence added several hun
dreds to the vote. Would we could have
heard Mr. Harris, of,Maryland, or Mr.
Long, qf Ohio! We particularly 'regret
that Mr. Cox did not help us,'for he was so
badly beaten in his'own district that his
eloquence would have had a most disastrous
recoil in, Pennsylvania. Emerson Ethe
ridge, however, did '.very well with
out him, and abused Mr. Lincoln in
such gross language that the worst
enemies of the President became his
best friends. Wherever he spoke, those
who came to scoff remained to pray.
Then we had Mr.; Hiram Ketchum, who
did.decidedly more good to the Union cause
by denouncing it than he ‘would have done
had he praised it. All these 'gentlemen,
-and more, came to Pennsylvania to ruin it,•
. and like that imliicky Balaam who went
upon a hill to curse the Israelites and came
down blessing them—-were valuable' aids
'in, its political salvation; Now, we can
not compliment Van Buren, Etheridge,
and Ketchum so, much as to say that
if they had not made - speeches Pennsyl
vania would have been carried by a great
/Copperhead majority, for we honestly
think the old Keystone State has: had her
mind made np ever since Mr. Justice
Woodward said.slaveholders had the right:
to rebel and McClellan recommended
‘ him for Governor. But we cordially thank
them' for their kindness, and recommend
the State Committee to place them all on
the list of Union campaign speakers. It
would be : a good investment to engage !
Mr. Etheridge at-the salary of an unem
ployed major general (six: thousand dol
lars a year is what McClellan gets)
to call Mr. Lincoln a remorseless ty
rant in every county. Gentlemen, don't
go home ! Don’t be disheartened if satiri
cal people ask you if you have heard about
the missionaries who are coming from the
Fiji Islands to convert us all to cannibal
ism, encouraged by the success of New
York Copperheads in Pennsylvania ! Stay
"with us through November; speak often
and boldly •, John , .Cessna, D aniel,
Dougherty, Daniel S. Dickinson*, and
our other Union: Orators,: need not make a
solitary speech
The basis of republican institutions is
the intelligence of the -people ;{their safe
guard the self-control of the people. Every
election proves their strength, and hone
more thoroughly than the last. Notwith
standing the bitterness of the canvass, and
the importance of its issues, the defeated
party submits quietly to the decision of the
majority. The'terrible defeat of the Oppo
sition in this city is endured with a good
humor only possible among Americans." It
is and will be so in Indiana and Ohio. The
moral ■ pledge to acquiesce . peaceably in
the decision of the 'majority is an under
stood condition of the reference of disputed
questions' to a popular vote, and there is
but one instance in American, history of
its being broken. That was iu 18«0, when
the Southern, pro-slavery party, having
submitted to the nation the question of the :
extension of slavery, refused to abide by
the. result. We believe in the honesty and
impartiality of the American people, and
the spirit in which the masses of the De
mocratic party have yielded 1 to their signal
defeat on Tuesday is one more emphatic
proof that the example of Southern faith
lessness will never be imitated in the North..
Mr. George Bullock, Union candidate
for Congress from the Sixth district, has
not been elected, and these counties
have' deprived themselves of a Repre
sentative who would haye been an
honor to their choice, a defender of their
interests, and a wise legislator for the
whole country. We especially regret Mr.
'Bollock’s defeat, for we believe he would
have made a Representative of no ordinal y
ability. As it is, ho polled a good vote in
Strong -Democratic counties, and if the
Union party was fated to be defeated there,
it could not have hack a candidate with
better chances of nuccess. Tf Mr. Btjl
. lock’s successful opponent proves half as
faithful to Pennsylvania and' to the Re
public as it is certain he would have been,
Mr, Boyeb will make a much better Con
gressman than the majority of his Demo
cratic colleagues. v
Tns distinguished Democrats who helped
us in the State canvass are rewarded as
greatly as they desired by its success; they
have the consciousness that they labored
for a cause worthy of all labor-; they have
the thanks of a loyal people. Now that
the battle is won, we must acknowledge the
great value -of their disinterested aid.
Col. Carpenter of Kentucky, and John
Cochrane of New York, did noble ser
vice. General McCall,:Wm. M. Heister
of Berks, John Cessna of Bedford, Judge
Shannon of Allegheny, Geo.- M. Kline
of Lancaster,; John Scott of Hunting
don, are all Democrats, some of whom
have hitherto taken no active part in favor
of the Union cause. /. In this city we have
had, the aid of N. Bl; Browne, Daniel
Dougherty, Mr. Tiros Fitzgerald, who
also thoroughly canvassed the Western
counties; Beniamjn H. Brewster, Enoch
Green, of the Sunday Transcript, Tnos.
Coleman of the Ledger, and others whom
we regret to wrong by thus omitting their
names. But the roil of honor cannot be
included in the -brief mention of a news
paper, though it is not too long to he kept
in the memory of patriotic Pennsylvania. -
That the herculean efforts of the enemy-;
to carry this State into the service of the;
rebellion have proved utterly futile, wo owe"
partly to that important class‘ofUnionists
who, in entering upon the 1 considerations
of the present canvass, dropped all party
feeling, and pledged a religious patriotism
to,the one object of saving the country.
Democrats; of long standing, and even op
ponents of the Administration, forgot party
and self in this grand struggle for principle
and.for Union. We;cabnot too highly com
pliment the-voters of all classes who shared
in the great result of Tuesday.
Last year those of the soldiers who
voted-did so at the .polls; this year very
few are at home,-and.aZJ will .vote inj the
camps! In a. fevTdays the. estimates of
majorities will be greatly changed the
full reports.
McClellan the Candidate of Rebels.
If McClellan’s election would secure
the Union, why is it that he is supported
by all the Disrmionists in the country?
Why are Harris, Long, Vallandigham,
Lazarus Powell, Prank Hughes, and a
host of other men who have advocated the
right of secession, anxious to make him
President ? "Why is he the candidate of
men who have not only justified secession,
but have urggd that Pennsylvania should
unite with the Southern Confederacy ?
Why is Pendleton, openly in favor of let
ting the Southern States leave the Union
•peaceably, his fellow-candidate on the
Presidential ticket ? Lastly, if McClel
lan is for the Union, why are the rebels
Ms friends ?'' , .. . ;v ’_ : ..;
. They arc his friends. Precisely as he.
_was praised by the rebel press when in
com man# of our armies, as the greatest of
all our soldiers, he is,now extolled by it as
the wisest of our statesmen. The cheers
with which the "rebel - army at Richmond:
welcomed the news of his nomination have
been re-echoed in every Southern city. If
the suffering Southern Unionists desired’
his election, then his friends might make
capital out of his popularity in the South.
But these are not the men who long for his
elevation to power; the rebel army and the
rebel leaders aro his friends, and the more
intent their hatred of the Union the more
earnest their desire that McClellan shall
be President.
There is not a fiercer rebel, not a more
furious 'enemy of the Worth, than Henrt
S. Foote, of Tennessee, "ex-Senator of the
. United States. _He was' the man who
wished to hang John P. Hale as high as
Haman. lle;is,now a member of the rebel
Congress, 1 and recently published; in the
Richmond Whig an address “to the free
and independent citizens of the Confederate
States,” Which ought to. reveal to every
freehifth of tiie Worth that the safety of the
Union demands that McClellan shall be
defeated. Mr. FooTE ’earnestly appeals to
Ms ‘fellow-rebels ip Hold outMiiil McClel-
lan is elected on.the Chicago platform , and
predicts that then the war will be abandoned
’and the rebel Government recognised. He
founds this prediction on the ‘ declared
principles of the Chicago party, and his
Knowledge of the men who control Mc-
Clellan. It is thus that he explains the
disgraceful surrender of the Jacksonian
maxim—not the Union ought to be; pre
served—but the Union must and shall bo
preserved, w-hich the Chicago Convention
•deliberately made :
“Ihold It to lie most certain, whatever opinion
may he uttered in certain quarters to the contrary,
that the pletforni is in distinct and irreconcilable 1
opposition to the farther, prosecution of the war. for
any purpose whatever; the second resolution of said
platform is of unmistakable import ; and'ho, w any
man of discerning- mind can 'entertain a different
view of the matter, lamat a loss to conceive, The
resolution referred to, in; the most emphatic man
ner, denounces the ‘ experiment of war’ as a means
of restoring the Union; declares that ‘justice,
humanity, liberty, and the public welfare demand
that immediate efforts .be made for: a cessation of hos
tilities;’ thnt though the most earnest desire is ex
pressed for the restoration of the Union- by peace
able means, .these is mot .the mast hint of
■IBTBBDKD .KVSTBAIKT OF ANT KIWD WIIATJSVEB.”
Again, speaking of the proposed Conven
tion of States, he says: , .
“ Surely this ought not at all to alarm us; no co.
ercive instrumentalities are to be resorted to to compel
ve to a reunion; there is plainly no reason to be pr
fended with the members of the Convention, because,
cor.dettining this atrocious war, and sympathising
vriih its in our grievances under its operation, and
■pained at. being, as even they must suppose, sepa
rated from us F0855V88- by that very war, they yet. de
plore that .separation, and are sincerely :desirous of
gelling into friendly and advantageous association
with us once more.”
Nor must it be overlooked that in this
remarkable address he litters no word of
condemnation of McClellan, but cannot
find language too strong to speak, his de
testation of the, Government. The men
who are at the head of the nation, the
brave generals of our armies, are denounced
by him as murderers, who will be. brought
to punishment'when McClellan is elected
•and )he Confederacy, recognized :
11 If McClellan and Pendleton are elected, outraged
and indignant, public sentiment-will demand- the ar
raignment, trial, and deserved punishment of the
enormous traitors and murderers who. are responsible
before God and man for all the abominable Crimes and
mischiefs which this unpardonable war has produced,'
and they will, most naturally, aimto evade the menaced
punishment ' ,
Much more might be quoted, but this is
more; than enough to show that upon
McClellan’s election the hopes of the re
bellion are founded.' The Northern man
who can now; vote Tor the candidate of
rebels, either in ignorance or folly se'eks-to
accomplish a deed which the world could
never forgive. ,
Steonglv significant of the popular judg
ment is the fact that the- so-called Demo
cratic candidates for President-and Vice
President have undergone the most em
phatic rebuke in the communities in which
they have lived. Philadelphia, the hirth-
General; McClellan, has -pro
nounced against him by a majority of
•nearly eight thousand. Cincinnati, the
birthplace and home of Pendleton, has
recorded his defeat in a majority of over
six thousand. These figures amount to a
verdict against the Democratic candidates.
The jury which decided upon their merits
are the citizens; among whom they are best
known—who had the strongest, local and
personal interest in their election. What
shall be said of candidates for the- Presi
dency who fail to receive any majority
whatever among their home friends and
near neighbors ? This fact contains an
important lesson, which honest but mis
guided men who have purposed to vote'the
Democratic ticket from a mere sentiment or
favoritism, should lay to heart. -
At an early hour Tuesday morning ive
received a despatch from New York, by the '
Associated Press, giving: us the opinion; of '
a newspaper, called The World, on ‘ the
•election in Pennsylvania; What there
should be in the statements of a paper pub
lished far away from here, and without any
special sources of information that do not.
exist in any of our country newspaper
offices,-that they should be sent all the .way
to Philadelphia, we cannot imagine. .The
opinion of The, World on Tammany Hall
politics, or gold fetocks, or the price of a\
Republican editor who finds himself In the
market with his starving newspaper, would
be valuable—and the Associated Press will
have our thanks whenever it can extract an
opinion on these subjects from The World.
But wc think all despatches of the kind re-,
ferred to impertinent. ..When there is
an election in New York, or New England,
we shall welcome any statement that the'
New York journals may make, but-we do
not care to leave home to know what is go
ing on in Pennsylvania. .
Before the election we heard much .of
“a free ballot or a free fight.” We have
had the one, and there is no danger of the
other. At the election, it is true, thanks
to a few dishonorable inspectors, and a
crowd of Copperheads, we had not a free
ballot at some of the polls, and we
free fight. Elsewhere in this paper is an
account of a Copperhead-who voted four
times, by the connivance of certain inspec
tors. Union men were forcibly prevented
from challenging him.- These outrages
were, we trust, mere incidents of the elec
tion. Certainly, since the result was an
nounced, all honest voters have been gra
tified by the graceful submission of the de
feated party to the decree of the ballot-box.
Thus is the voice of the people obeyed at
home, as among the soldiers. '
- Glorious Indiana has given a Union gain
of nineteen thousand—a majority of thirty
thousand. The news Tuesdaynight seemed
too good not to be exaggerated, but it is
fully conrmed.

CCorrespondence of The Press. 3 . ,
HottiDAreBURG, PaV, October 12’ 1864,
i Yesterday I telegraphed to you that a fight had
taken' place between-the Provost Guard of this
Congressional district and some citizens in Juniata
township. The will give you briefly.
Some months ago a man by the name of James
Shaw, was drafted Into, the service of the United
‘States but failed to report. He since that .time has
been hiding and otherwise evading the clutches of
the authorities, and went so far as to purchase a gun
to resist any person who might be sent, to arrest him.
It was determined by the Provost marshal that he
should be arrested when he should come to the polls
to vote. Two men doing provost service hero, Jas. W.
Lloyd and John Morrison, men of good character,'
and drafted men themselves; were sent to perform
the duty. A soldier at homo bn furlough was ap
pointed to designate iho deserter. Five or six men,
atm ed with rifles, came to the polls, headed by a man
or the name of. Jamos Ilearmond. The soldier
pointed out the deserter, and when he called aloud
to the “ guard,” the party took the alarm and fled.
Lloyd drew his revolver to shoot the deserter, and
the ball passed through the fingers of one of the

the- Courrier des Elats Unis, of New York:
Sir : Referring to Mexican affairs, In yesterday’s
number of your daily paper, you speak of me in
-termß SO highly offensive to my honor that I fool
compelled, in self-defence, to tronble you again for
the publication of a few lines.
I repeat.once more that I never did solicit any
thing at all of, the Eo-called Imperial Government
of Mexico, nor do linfend returning there to submit
to lt. Ho who so states falsely affirms that I have
•doneso.
It is a; inoat infamous calumny to Insist upon say
..ft”" that I pretended to make an arrangement with
the invaders to save my private property. What I
'possess in the State of Guanajuato, has been ac
quired just as legally as any property bought by any
one else, politics having .nothing to dowithmy for
- tune, which has been gotten by honest labor. For
that very reason I need ask bo guarantee at all of
the so-called Imperial Government. My property,
like every other person’s, is guaranteed by the civil
laws, in vigor in Mexico long before the country was
Invaded. Of all the national property sold in Mexico,
I bought but one siDgle house, and that was paid for
according the-regulations of the laws of reform,
enacted there by the legitimate Government of my
country.' The French intervention has never dared
,u derogate them, in spite of the .exigencies of the
-and traitors,because every one knows that,

asd repelling force by force to the utmost of my
power. I think, by so doing, I have done my duty
as a Mexican- I emigrated to this country after the
fate of war had proved adverse to me, and after
losing nearly, ailmy soldiers.
As to my object in coming to .this country, allow
me to Eay I do not consider myselfbound to confide
it toany one, and much less to writers who judge so
lightly of persons whose prosent misfortune enti
tles them to the respect of all.
I know perhaps better than any one else the little
or no value of the guarantees the usurper’s Govern
ment might tender me, for I have not.so soon forgot
ten the worth of Mr. Saligny’s signature at the pre

It will he remembered that a portion of a human
body was found, some time sinco in the East river.
The inferences- thus drawn were, that a fearful
tragedy- had been enacted, and that the murderer,
in order; to remove forever all trades of his guilt,
had resorted to the dismemberment of his victim.
The head and legs were sawn off, and the trank di
vided" just above the rimblHc, Weights being at
tached to thepackagas in which the fragments were
contained, It may have seemed to him soaroely
possible that the water would give up these dread
ful evidences against him. Thus far, however, the
whole trunk has been discovered, arid the authori
ties are in hopes of finding the other portions of the
be dy. A reward of $l,OOO has been offered, in hopes
that some accomplice—if such there were—may be
Stimulated to reveal the clreuinstaiices of .the tra
gedy, and thus lead to.the detection of the assassin.
Itisnot doubted that tho victim was a person’of
mesijp .and Respectability, from; the fact, that the.
portionß -of clothing are of fine texture and fashiona
ble make. The police are using every effort to gain
the clue, and render Justice her own. " -

of a peculiar character has just evidenced “which

the time of the sword; excitement, subscribed the
sum of $l4l to the fund for purchasing a weapon for
him of the gunboat fame. This amount he sent to
the TU'.rald office, where contributions for that pur
pose were being received. On Monday he called
upon the editors of that festive sheet., and demand
ed the return of the money, thinking, it is presumable,
that the Young Man stood in little need of 1 a blade,
judging from the pacific tendencies of his platform.

Max Maretzek and the, Critics. —A New
York paper having' rooently thrown out a few re
marks about the sickness of BXr. Maretzek’s artists,
intimating thatra good manager should haveavoided
these troubles, the impressario has pubHshed'a let
ter, in? which; after -asserting the indisposition of
Signor MaximJllani, &c.,thus pleasantly discusses
the subject: ' .
“ For the rest, let, me modestly confess that I
know not hiw to act. It has been the study of my
life to ‘ manage’ in just the way your critic sug
gests. I can oonceive of no greater triumph for an
impressario than to be able to,say that he has
abolished all excuses for disappointing the 'public.
To do away with colds, and deny to the throat its
too facile hoarseness, would indeed be a meritorious
achievement. The-sqiiaring '< of the circle, >the
transmutation of metals, the; distillation of the
waters- of eternal life, evdH the discovery of
perpetual "motion itself, wore- nothing to it.
But, alas I there Is a homel f~ provßrb which
says you may bring a horse,to the water, but you
cannot make him drink; and—forgive the feeble
pun—you may take a hoarse singor to the stage, but
, you cannot make him sing. I have In my memory
at this m oment a little illustrative incident, ; A re
fractory tenor, during one of my Cuban trips, con
cluded that it was desirable to be sickf The weather
was fine, and the ooiojtfes.presented unusual charms.
.It was despotic, perhapß, and decidedly ungallant;
but the tenor was arrested by the, authorities. His
name had been announced on the bills, and that was
their justification. Imagine the supreme relief that
this event occasioned me. There was to be no dis
appoiniment., I had at last reached the blessd land
where colds and hoarseness were Ignored. The
objeet of my life was accomplished. lhad found the
Atlantis of a managerial 'desire, and was never, to
be .unhappy again. ; The evening came. Treeisely
at the appointed hour iny tenor was delivered to
me; guarded by four armed soldiers.- The stage was
before him, their bayonets behind. In the dress
circle was the dignitary who had caged the unwil
ling singer. A savage glare was directed to the
scene as the culprit, made his entry, and; then the
audience listened; They are listening yet, for that
resolute man refused to open his mouth. The stream
was there, you perceive, bnt he would not drink.
And should your critic know any way by which he
.can be made to do so, I shall feel under eternal obii
gatlons to him if he would- Impart it to mo. The
-only plan that has worked well with me, so far, is
the simple but expenslve one of keeping''a large
company, so that if one .singer is sick, or only- pro
ten 0b to be sick, another singer can instantly be
put In his place. - *

'a heavily-loaded biily, making an ugly wound,
from which the blood- flowed copiously. The.
other east a great paving stone at the bar-keep

an attack with brickbats'upon the door aid win

Strange :: Scene "in jl hownoN CHnECa.—'Thj
Church, of St. Mary Magdalene, Mnnster-square,
London, -was crowded on Sunday morning, the lith.
It having been announced that “ Brother Ignatius”
■would preach the" sermon; When the hell cease*
the first part of a singular scene presented hsjif
About, twenty surpliced choristers entered and
their place in the chancel. They, wgle tbltowed i v
two-priests wearing green stoles, but no Universk?
hoods. Then came Mr, Bf.'QMs, habited in the esps
or full: Eucharistic vestments,- being difiereat ia
every .resnefifc from the ' simple: surplice, sto>«,
and -hood ‘which are ordinarily worn by a priest
of the Church of England when engaged in the
duties of his Church. The “cope” was richly
embroidered, the ornamentation at the back
forming ft splendid rieh yeliow embroidered nros;,
extending from bis Bhoulders nearly to his heels.
Prior to the entrance of the: procession two hugs
candles (between which was a large cross) at
the altar were lighted. In the first place JR,
Stuart incensed the altar. A yopng.b9y, Snrolisad
and hps§ljDK on the SiepS of the altar, present'd
what is called a “ boat,” made apparently of silver'
containing the incense; then the thurible Or censer
. in which the incense was burnt, and in which It was
fumed.' This thurible, which was provided with
long chains, Mr. Stuart took from the “ Thurifer ”
the attendant, and swung it in the air, the resalt of
' which operation was tjiat in a very .few moments

ordinary clerical surplice, and a girdle round his
waist, representing the girding of the priest’s loins
in memory of our Lord’s admonition to readme;}.
He wore also an embroidered green stole: crossed
over his breast. In this dress he went into the pulpit
and said: “Brother Ignatius tells me that he has
fot a sore throat, and cannot preach hers tp-d.p'’.
am . sorry for it, because some have come hsiv.
,probably, for the purpose of hearing him. it a
not my fault. Before I gave you notice last .Sun
day morning that he would preach here to-day, i
received a distinct assurance fro® him that nothing
should hinder him from coming here. Perhaps
Brother Ignatius thinks a promise is nothing
and that Is my opinion about his sore throat. Whlu
I asked him to preach here last summer, awl en
gaged to give him what might be collected for his
mission, about AibO being raised, he had no sots
throat; but, as the offertory collection io-dav was
to be on behalf of the Church of St. Mary Mania,
lene, poor Brother Ignatius has got a sore chroit
Now, as some have no doubt come to hear Brotie*
Ignatius, I will wait a minute or two to alley thesa
who like to leave the church to go. Those who S[>a
to' remain I shall be, of course, glad to see to iis’sn
loa common place sermon.” About three minutes
elapsed, and as no one seemed disposed to more, : vlr
Stuart proceeded, faking for Ms text the Ist sha>
ter of St: Paul’s Epistle to the Ephesians, verses
22 and S 3: “And gave Ma to be the head ever
ail tMigs to, the Church.” He said there wars
things in the wot Id quite as important as Bre.
ther Ignatius, which existed before Brother Igni
tius, and would exist after Mm, whether he had
a sore throat or not. He was going to speak this
morning of one of. those things, which ws« the
Church of Christ. They were told’ln the Apostou*
writings that there was a Church on earth; second
ly, what that Church was; and’,.thirdly, who vis
the Head of that Church. It was important that
people should be taught these things, because in
these days people had very different ideas about
the Church of Christ. Many people- did no;
know what the Church was, and- every clergy
man knew that the question was frequently pat
to Mm. “ What really is the Church}”' or “ifo*
many Churches are there 1” Is the Church tint
of England, Borne, Prance, Russia, Constantinople,
or any other Country % Some said that the ftasea
was the head of the Church, others that the Popo of
Rome was its head. Some affirmed that Eilrs Bed!.
Siam nulla solus—that there was no salvation
beyond the pale of the Church; which was quite
true. It was, however, asked what was the
nature of the Church, and whetherany distlaet and
definite answer could be given to that question, Ea
thought St. Paul answered the question whew be
said the Church was tbs body of Christ. Therc-wse
really only:one Church on earth, for there wea-only
one body of Christ, and men were made mem
bers of that Church'by baptism. The HolyOem
munion being the centre of unity, the ChcrA
was Cajthollc, not simply national, fora natiseri
was simply, pait.of.a Catholic Church. It %u
not a Roman Church, for the word “Komar."
showed that the Church to which It was at
tached was only a portion of the Catholic Church,
It certainly had bean said that members cf
that communion did not call themselves Komsts
Catholics, and that the term “Roman” was only
.applied to them by nersons who were opposed
to them la faith. The, word “Roman.” however
occurred in the canons of the Church as settled ey
the Council of" Trent, and to repudiate that won!
was a Ha on their part. At the same time fee
saw no use in employing the language of invective
against the Roman Catholics, or in calling the®
loolators. It would be far better if every one wouil
qjtert himself to prevent the spread of schism, strife,
and variance, and to bring about the re-union of
Christendom. Such a thing might not take place
in our day, bat .all should so strive through misre
presentations and difficulties that if Catbolic unity
could not be restored, the blame did not rest with
-them. At thedose of-the sermon Mr. Stuart west
back to the altar, where he resumed the Eucharist;
vestments, and proceeded to the administration ’f
the Holy Communion, the service being chorally
rendered.
