In the House of Commons last night, during the debate on the condition of Armenia, the Under-Secretary for Foreign Aflairs said the Government would not be satistied with gen- eral promises from the Porte, but as the Gov- hace sfrikxe ernmentg~. Was acting in concert with “ther powers it was im- possible for him now to explain the details of the reform which they were demanding or the stepsthey were tak- ing to press them upon the Porte. Sir Wil- fred Lawson, radical, declared he would op- pose any warlike dem dustration against Tur- key as earnestly under the late Gov- ernment he had opposed the demonstration against lussia. Henry Labouchere, Liberal, protested against meddling with matters that do not concern us either in Armenia or clsewhere. DPremier Gladstone denied that the Government was under any obligations to say whether the poli- cy of coercion would be adopted or not. The House must be content, he said, to rely on the general rule that itisthe interest of the Government to make Parliament ac- quainted with its policy. He inferred from the debate that the Government would receive support from all sides in its endeavors to in- duce the Porte to carry out the reforms. THE WIMBLEDON SHOOTING. WIMBLEDON, July 24.—In the American- English International rifle match to-day at 800 yardsthe score stood: American, 544; English, 580. At gunfire for lunch totals at %0 vards range stood: English, 560; Ameri- cans, 530. The Americans commenced shoot- ing at 9:50 o’clock, when a very light breeze prevailed. Blackwell shootsin the place of Farrow, who had a dispute about the choice of prize in the tie for the third series of ex- tra prizes, and although Hyde offered to let him bave what he wanted he refused to shoot as unless Hvde gave him ae guar- antee in writing that he would have the choice. The team, therefore, unanimously excluded him. The score fat 900 yards: Americans, 510; English, 559. The shooting began 9:45 with fair hight and very light. wind. The teams fired in squads as follows: American team, first squad: Scott, Laird, Jackson, Rockwell; second squad: Hyde, Gerrish, Dudley, Brown. English team, first squad: Baker, Hiwans, Godsall, Humphrey; second squad: Young, Fenton, Joynt, Milner. The total scores uf the respective teams at 800 yards range were as follows: Americans—Scott, 73; Laird, 67; Jackson, 72; Rockwell, 54; Hyde, 69; Ger- rish, 72; Dualey, 66; Brown, 71. English— Baker, 73; Evans, 74; Godsall, 72; Humph- rey, 73; Young, 70; Fenton, 73; Joynt, 71; Milner, 74. The English team finished the 800 yards range about 11 o’clock. A smart thunder shower occurred as the Americans were concluding their shooting, about 11:5v. The following are the scores at 1900 yards: American team, Scott, 67; Laird, 71; Jack- son,.69; Rockwell, 50; Hyde, 63; Gerrish, 60; Dudley, 64; Brown, 71. Total, 515. English Team—Baker, 71: Evans, 79; God- sall, 68; Humphrey, 70; Young, 67; Fenton, 71; Joynt, 72; Milner, 71. Total, 559. Rockwell only knew he had to shoot at the last moment. When the possibility of his shooting arose last night, be had no time to compare the sightings of his gua with others and had to commence witha borrowed gun which others of the team hadjroughly compar- ed at the pool last night, The team is very hot against Farrow, and a resolution to go on without him was to the effect that the team preferred to be beatena with gentlemen rather than win under other circumstances. Brown offered this morning , before shooting to pay Farrow the difference between the value of the prize selected for him in the extra prizes and one which he wished to have, but bestill remained obdu- rate. Gen. Hawley has not been here 80 far, Rockwell failedto count on the fourth and fifth shots at 900 yards range, and went off to change his rifle. Re- turning, he caught another blank. His succeeding shots counted alternately 4 and 5, until the fourteenth, when he scored 3 instead of 5. Hyde, who organized the team, cap- tured a blank on his tenth shot: Seore at 1,000 yards—Americans, 510; English. 508. Score at 1,000 ,:ard-: American team—Ncott, 63; Laird, 67; Juckson, 68; Rockwell, 69; Hyde,t6; Gerrish, 55: Dudley, 67; Brown, 60; total, 509. English tea n—Luker, 61; Evans, 59; Godsall, 62; Humphrey, 64: Fenton, 65; Jovnt, 61; Milner, 67; total, d’8. Grand totals —English, 1,647; Amer cans, 1.568, The dispute between Farrow ard Hyde grew out ofatie inthe third series of extra prizes. When the tie might have been shot off, Hyde’s gun had broken down. The cumpetitors had arranged among themselves who shoula take the various prizes when selections were made. Farrow was notin camp, and Hyde selected for him, but Farrow was not sate. isfied wiih the selection. DISGUST IN NEW YORK. S»vecial to the Post-Dispatch. NEW YORK, July 24.—The result of the shooting at Wimbledon at the 80) yards range puts an end to ali further’ interest bere in the American-English contest. Five hundred and eighty for the English to 544 for America on the bulletin boards was hailed With the ejaculation, **That settles it.’ Some gavea long suppressed whistle, others. &® groan, and all went their several Ways. After a time curiosity im- pelled some to return, but when they were greeted with a score of 513 for Americato 559 for England, they actually ran from the bulletin, exclaimiag, ‘‘Is it an American team at all that is shooting?’ The announcement of victory for the Americans at 1,000 yards range was allowed to pass in silence. Two points advantage at the close did not materially modify the decisive defeat at shorter ranges. Now itis claimed the defeated team organized in detiance ofBodine, who left the United Statea as Captain of the team that defeated the Irish at their own butts. Hyde is censured for rallying an un- disciplined eis ht only to bring disaster] for the firsttime upon the American colors. The manufacturers of American rifles used in the contest are filled with chagrin and already are talking ofa match for the /’alma trophy in the hope they may recover lost ground. American riflemen here do not seek to dis- vuise their disappointment, but insist the shooters represented only themselves. Russia. ST.

Special ‘o the Post- Dispatch. NEW YORK, July 24.—Mrs. Bag'ey, the wite of one. the men who was io the Hudson River tunnel at the time ofthe accident, and Miss Broderick, of Philade)phia, sister of two of the men now in the tunnel, were at the works this morning and created quite a scene by = erying and making vain efforts to get near the motith of the shaft. Three divers are preparing to go down to try and close the door of the air- lock. One who went down last night, finding it impossible to accomplish anything, was unable to say whether there wasa body wedged between theouter door of the air- lock or not, but thought he felt something that resem led cloth. C.C. Lovejoy, chief enzinecr of the Elevated Railroad,took charge of the cribbing and will continue ia charge until the work is finished. EDISON’S ELECTRIC ENGINES. Edison interds builcing athree-mile track for testing his electric engines. ‘Tbere will be several very steep grades of 8&0 feet to the mile and anoiber of 2,600 feet to the mile.

NEW YORK, July 24.—Work at the Hudson River Tunnel was resumed early this morn- ing. The water in the shaft was up to witbin a few inches of the engine, which was work- ing in a fitful way to keep the water from overflowing it. The water in the shaft is higher than at any time since the accident occurred. Work was resumed in the cribbing this morning, and all the men discharged yesterday were put to work again avd will} be kept to work night and day until the crib work is completed. TANNER WEAKER, Dr. Tanner was somewhat weaker and rather more irritable to-day. Early this morning be complained ofa burning sensa- tion in the stomach and was given two moutksful of hot water, which stimulated the gastric follides, relieving his (lis« tress. His pbysicians think it is an unfavorable sign, but he saysthat during his fast at Minneapolis he often experienced the same sensation.

Saw 6=lC«CML ORK, gully 22, issv.—T wo knotty problems are just now occupy- ing the mings of those who can’t get away to go fishing. Dr. Tanner has by slow de- vrees starved himself inte the lion of the hour. New Yorkers are thankful for any di- version during the dog-days, and the amiable Doctor’s efforts inthe behalf of science are beginning to be appreciated by people who are tired of hearing long-winded stories of the sea-serpent which still meanders up and down the coast, and other New Jersey inventions, and who look on the Minnesota man as u very important addition to the city’s list of summer curiosities. Clarendon Lall has not been an objective point to thousands, as one would suppose. The people here are the least curious of any onearth, and the next man who fasts won’t get a single adherent une less he proposes to double up the forty days, as two fortnights will by that time seem a mere bagatel/e to these novelty-seekers. In fact, if nothing new arose to amuse the New York mind, it would collapse like atoy bal- loon. The feminine heart will alwavs adore the man who eats sparingly. Inthe face of about, a kindly elderly lady in gray debege offeredto amuse him fora while. *“Aren?t you tired of baby? Let me take him to the forward end of the boat, where the music is playing now.’’ This sbe refused with a frightened look, and gave the little toad, already stuffed, a fresh cookey. ‘*He is used to being quiet. I don’t think be cares for music.” Baby resented this by flinging a clump of violets off the bat into the water, which some- what appeased his restlessspirit. It was her baby, but he resembled herin nothing. He was a bandsome fellow with bold, bright eyes and little dark crisps of curls. The left side of his face bore a faint red sear as if froma recent wound, but he bad no doubt borne it well, as he was not a‘“‘ciy-baby.’? Shortly after the hurry and scramble of the landing, these two were dis- | covered atthe farther end of the paviion south of the great iron pier, on which were huncreds of gay promenaders watching the crowd of bathers below. Correspondents are notably curious, and a seat in a quiet corner behind a novelette insured a good view and earsbot of motberand baby. It was a chance in which Margaret Rookley.the“child stealer,” would have delighted, as the mother’s atten- ticn Was eiven entirely toa gav equipage slowly driven down the sands. It contained a flashily dressed woman of tifty in a yellew bonret with red strings holding a lace para- sol, and a stylish young man in white flanne!. With stares of horror and indigna- tion the group in the carriage recognizel the group in the pavilion. and as the young woman arose excitedly, the elder one de- scended from the carriage and came towards her. The first words were low, and then the young mother said with great scorn: ’ **If be is so anxious to bave his child, why does he not come and get him. I have never denied bis right, except to take him by force,” and she touched the scar with the fin- ger on which there was not a wedding riog. ‘41: is useless to follow my son about in this ridiculous way you; will gain nothing by that. He is willing to pruvide for both you and the child,’’ and a purse was drawn haif out of the silk bag at ber side. ‘*T wish to see him myself. Ido not want his money. And I shali see him or every one here shall know what heis. I know what he isdoing here. Heistryipgto marry ao heir- ess—but he must kill me first.*’ **You are a little fool!” said the elder man savagely, and she turned away. The young man joined the party then, and threw away the end ofacigar. Ile was too evi- dently the baby’s natura! protector, though ‘he did not offer any paternal advances.

Never before were such magnificent toilets worn as this season, as never before were such combinations of colors permissible. Blondes have had their day, and now dark-eyed belles arereigning. The season’s styles seem to have been made for them. At the seaside they wear astonishingly pretty dresses of violet silk, flounced with lack lace, the lace caught up at inteivals with clumps of scarlet yeraniums or golden ¢o- riopsis. some lovely black walki:g diesses are of silk— perhaps a season old—and ornameated from waist to hem with over- lapping rows of chenille fringe, which 1s heavy in effect, but very rich and new. The bodice to this costume will be of floriated velvet, buttoned to the throat with corals. A bonnet of black lac: is worn, which is tied with satim double s rings of the coral tint, and a hanging convu!vulus, of the same shade, dreops from the left side. Very pretty light silk toilets for morning drives or walks are of lavender or sea green, covered with deep, tinely-plaited fluunces, Which are allowed to flare. The waist is surplice, with a folded handker- chief of Chinese crepe of the same shade, which exposes the throat where a diamond shaft nestles, or a souvenir pin with bells as pendants.

BOSTON GOSSIP. — --- —— — ——— —- —-— | + Societies for the Prevention of Cru- elty to Children and Animals. Lovely Costumes Seen in the Shops of Fashionable Modistes. Special Correspondence of the Post-Dispatch. BOSTON, July 19.—Not long ago, while rid- ing down town in one of our street cars, the saldest accident occurred which it bas ever been my fate to witness. The car had just reached a place where the rails from four di- rections crossed each other. Owing tothe bad condition of a switch, our car, which should have preserved its course straight on- wards, followed the track to the right, at the sametime that the horses were going for- ward in the right direction. The power which the car exerted when it switched off the main track pulled the right-hand horse down to the ground, while the other animal, unable for the instant to overcome his own inertia, dashed madly onward, striking the poor creature on the ground half a dozen times or more with his iron shoes. Of course policemen and citizens gathered around, and the fallen horse was belped to arise as quickly 3s possible, but not before considerable harm was done. The animal looked badly hurt, and was hardly able to proceed on bis way. He completed his trip down town and back to the stables before he was unharnessed ani taken care of. How wany cases of cruelty to animals are heard of every day through the newspapers and other sources! Since the establishment, however, of societies for the prevention of cruelty to animals allover the country, cases of cruelty bave become less and less frequent in the publie streets. OUR MASSACHUSETTS SOCIETY is yearly doing more and more good, striving in every Way to prevent cruelty to animals in thisState. Thev offer prizes to pupils of the publie schools who obtain the greatest num- ber of signatures to the pledge of mercy. Prizes are also offered to the most humane boise car drivers, tothe manaver or proper officer of any United States railroad company who have in force the most bumane rules for the protection cf animals within their care, to inventors who add most to the comfort of animals, etc. In every worthy way they are strivipg to attain the sood object they have in view, The Massachusetts Society for the Preven- tion of Cruelty to Children bas only been in existence « few years. In 1877 and 1878 two sovietics of this kind were founded in the State with diferent boards of government but kindred purposes, Which have since been unit- ecl into one State society. ‘The purposes of this society are ‘‘to investi- gute cases of cruelly or neglect to any person urder twenty-one years in the State; to pros- ecute When necessary: to rem@gyve deserted and neglected children to bospitals or other institutions or private families; to prevent the Slavery of Itaiian children under street musi- cians and the employment of otber children as acrobats, circus-riders, etc. EXTREME CRUELTY TO THEIR CHILDREN is frequent among a certain class of people. I read an item in the paper the other nightj stating that ry son and daughter of a certain couple’ in the State of Pennsylvania both committed sui- cide, at different times, on account of the cruel treatment they received from their par- ents. This society depends entirely upon dona- tions and memberships for its existence, and makes no charge for expenses in investigating apy case. A State Fair for the abused and neglected ebildren is to be beld in J])2acember next, and many Boston ladies are even now busily engaged in making articles for con- tritution. THE MANIA FOR USING STRAWS, grasses, Wheats ved oats for fancy-work seems to have reached its climax this year. Very pretty ornuments are made in the shape of lit- tle baskets, ships, horseshoes, etc. The sbips are perfect, with masts, and rigzing all complete. The hull is eomposed en- tirely of straws, and the minia- iure craft is trimmed, as for 4 holiday, with grasses, wheat and oats. The very latest novelty isa horse-shoe. Theframe is made of bark—white birch is the prettiest— with a moss or bark-covered stick attached to the bark to enable itto stand on «a muutel- piece or table. Bunches of German grasses, v hest and oats, carelessly arranged, are plac- ed here and there, the spaces between being filled with bright everlasting flowers, which may be renewed when fadedl. These orna- ments will last for vears, and make a unique wedding-gift when made nicely. Pretty straws may be easily ceilected from some wheat-field in the cuuntry and made up into ixney alticies. A friend of mine last summer picked a quantity of wheat straws, Liaided them into a wide braid and sewed the plaited straw intoa knobby shaped bat with square crown and wide, flaring brim. ‘These hats are all the siyle this season. there being great numbers shown in the stores duwn towh, Only the straw is bleached, andis not nearly so pretty +s the natural colors. | visited some fashionable dress-making roows the otherday, and saw some of the LOVELIEST COSTUMES just completed.

The other was of dove-colored cashmere and red satin; the satin was shirred down the front of the dress, bordered on each side with deep Irish point lace, through whose open meshes the satin showed prettily. OUIDA CLARE, { . SARA BERNHARDT. . a —_— Revelations of Her Inner Artistic Life. - — —— ent Audiences—The Coffin Photographs. \ {from the New York Herald. | LONDON, July 2, 1880.—There is, perhaps, no Woman inthe world as much written and talked about as sara Bernhardt. 1 was mys- tified to-day as she putona pairof strange- looking, huge, buttonless gloves, which en- cased her arms nearly up to her shoulders, and asked, “*‘Whatsort of gloves are these, pray r’’ Her answer was characteristic: “Or%est mon inrention—’est le gant Niutrah Bernhardt’. (This 1s my invention—this is the Sara Bernhardt glove.) It has been said here that English society is not so eager this season to make her the social goddess as it was last, but it would hardly be possible for a woman to be more thoroughly besieged than is Sara—that is the name by which people generally fondly call her. Tosee heris almost as difficult—I dare say for people disconnected with the artistic and dramatic world even more so—as to see the (dueen. I was very fortunate in being intro- duved to her by anold and intimate friend of hers, the Count G——, and while we leisure- iv chatted in ber drawing room perhaps a aozen important personages, all of whom had come by appointment. had to wait patiently uown stairs. Saralives very comfortably— even luxuriously—in London. She bas none of the miseries of hotel life to annoy her. She hired a splendid mansion, sumptuouly furo- ishe@—No. 46 Vrince’s Gate—for the period of her stay in England, and there gives enter- tainments which rival those of another ex- travagantly bospitable member of the theatri- cal world in London, Mr. Henry Irving,whose famous supper at the Lyceum Theater cost bim £1,000. After I left heron the occasion of my firstinterview with her, which is now to be described, she went to breakfast with the Prince of Wajes—“‘breakfast” at2p. m. isthe ultra fashionable style here—at the studio of Mr. Augustus Lumley. It seems to me the only lack of attention that Sara could possibly complain ofis that the (Queen has not yet left ber card, and that is a complaint she must share with many people. PERSONAL APPEARANCE, I never was more agreeably disappointed in the appearance of a person than when Sara smilingly and merrily tripped—I would al- most have said danced—into the room, which, by the way, was so littered up with gigantic ships and crowns of flowers that it was quite a puzzle to know where tosit down without crushing them. She looked infinitely fresher, brighter and prettier than I had ever seen her on tbe stage. Her puotographs are perfect caricatures—every one of them. They give no idea of those wonderfully clear, transiuc- ent, great blue eves. with their now soft and melting and now keen and penetrating giance: of herfresh and fair complexion, which on the stage is hidden under a horrid mask of thiik paint; of her beautiful light blonde hair, which lacks just a shade of being golden and is curled in the most graceful and artistic fashion: of her tender and sensitive mouth, the slightest motion of which is full cf character and expression. | had never cousidered her pretty. lLnow, after a most careful and painstaking inspection, decidedly theught her so. She was charmingly dress- ed, too, and her thinness of person, which is so generally remarked, but which she ridi- cules berself, was most artistically disguised. The waves of lace and rutile which fell about ber neck appeared to hide a bust worthy of Dana herse!f. IL wish I could describe her dress. ‘*'T'o know her is a liberal education,”’ was once said of a famous woman. Tode- scribe ber dress would mean a liberal educa- tion in everv ramification of the science of ' dressmaking, which, alas! has been denied ine. HER TRIP TO AMERICA. She gave me ber hand with a cordial grip andthe most amiable smile, and with that coquuettish and rollicking playfuluess which makes her such anamusing personto talk to. She clapped her hands, and said to one of her admirers who had followed her into the room, ‘*Now go, vo down stairs, we must be alone,’’ upon which summary dismissal the disap- pointed souvprron Gisconsolateiv vanished. Then spe sat down on 2 very low civan, and, while puttlag on those huge gloves above re- ferred to, and looking me with a half serious, balf ccmical expression straight inthe face, sbe said in French (she does not speak Englisb): ‘‘Well, here I am ready to go tbroveh the ordeal.’ “You are going to America, Madame,” | said. **Yesg,” she replied, with an expression of earnestness which made her great blue eyes uppear about coubletbe size they had been before, ‘*l have had for such aleng time such an ardent desire to visit America. ‘They tel! such lies aboutme. They say I am avaricious and bave left the Comedie Francaise to go to America in order to amassriches. (In an ap- pealing tone.)

Do you know ‘Jeanne D’Arc?’ What do you tbink of it? Dovyou think that would bea good play te make my debutin? Tell me.’ The rapidity with which these questions were successive ly rsttled forth afford<d anothe er striking illustration of her accustomed ve- locity of speech. Asshe looked at me this thought seemed suddenly even to strike her, andsbeclapped her hands with rollicking mirto and laughed heartily. ‘Ab! bere [am again, with my lightning speech,” she said. ‘*I beg your pardon!” l gexve her my opinion, and then she wanted to know all about Booth’s Theater, whether it was larger or not. than the Comedie Francaise or the Odeon; bow many people it wouid hold: what the hignest receipts had ever teen there,ete. Lanswered these questions as best I could, and said that with the ordin- aly pricesthe theater had often held over +2,000 ata sing'e performance. ‘*That would not be enough,” she said with a prompt decision which showed that she was also a business woman besides being a great actress. ‘**Look at the great pecuniary sacri- tices which I shall have to make to go to Amer- ica!

AT BROWNING’S FEET. An Absurd Story of a Person Who Should Have Been Kicked. From the London Truth. ] One day Swinburne called on Browning,who received him courteously and bade him be seated, much marveling the while why he carl ied with him asmall foot-stool. The mys- tery was soon cleared up, for Swinburne laid the foot-stool at Browning’s feet and sat him- selfthereon. He could not arrogate equality with a master of the divine art; his sole am- bition was to sitat his feet. Browning was profoundly bored, and in mortal fear that somebody might call and become a spectator of the interview. He knew his visitor well enougb to understand that the latter would not budgefor any intruder. It speaks vol- umes for Browning’s urbanity that he con- versed patiently andcomposedly with the er- ratic one ferthe space of an hour; then—for humanity is frai] andsome men will not take a hint—his perves gave way. ‘‘And now,’’ said the host, ‘‘you must forgive me, forlI haye an appvintment and must go.’’ Swin- burne took up bis stool] and preceded Brown- ing down stairs. Inthe hallhe observed that he had a special favor to ask. Browning as- sured him he would do anything in his power to be of service to him. Swinburne replied: ‘*It is that you would allow me to sit at your feet for yet another tive minutes.’’ The tone was one of imperturbable gravity. Brownisg assented and the pair walked up stairs again. Swinburne carefully replaced his foot-stool and sat out tne full five minutes, but, to do him justice, no longer. Browning’s face, when his guest had finaily departed, must have been a study. nae Paris Notes. | From‘the Parisian. | There are more than fiftv Krench women studying medicive in Varis.

There are more ‘‘only original) .Jo- hann Maria Farina’’ establishments than you could visit in a week. Each vender looks you solemnly in the face and swears that his vieat-great-crandfatber was the inventor, and the secret came to him,and to him alone. However, it isall the same of whom you buy it. | have an idea that itis all made in one tank, and I know you will pay more for it | at anv of the little ‘‘original’’ shops than | you can buy it forin Boston, with precise) the same label on the bottle. ; T_T TTT pia sbedamd tS 3 iso).

Some of the Republican leaders are housting very loudly in Washington of the tremencous majority that Garfield will re- ceive in Pennsvivania. It is evident that they jutend to put mansard roofs on the ballot-boxes in Philadelphia so that the hallot-box stuffers will be able to get in a full Cay’s work onthe 2nd of November. The Republican vote of Philadelphia has cen very much abbreviated in close con- tests heretofore on account of the cramped ebaracter of the ballot-boxes in use there, Grex. Guant has bagged a VDresidency atlast. He has been chosen as a figure- head fora New Mexico Land and Mining Company, with copper and silver mines ty self at prices ranging from 3350 to $20,000,000. Grant has probably been selected as President with a view to hook- inginthe Mikado of Japan, the King of Siam, the Eyesore of Bungapoor and other foreign gawks, on the same principle that Schenck secured his Emma Mine stock. If he does well he-will have no trouble about securing a third term, Were observe that the Hon. Carolus Schurz, in his recent Indianapolis essay on “Finite the as Contradistinguished from the Intinite,’’ bcmoaned to a certain extent Gien. Hancock’s lack of civil training. No man in this country understands so well 9s Mr. Schou: “ the effect of military school- ing on a plastic mind molded especially on the Cavour plan. Mr. Schurz was one of the greatest military men we had during our late war and itis understood in strict- ly analytical quarters that his conspicu- ous inability to rise to Alpine heights In the civil departments of life is due entire- ly to his severe, painful and protracted military training. The statistics has cause of many singular developments, but science of been the ian nothing have the revelations been more curious than in dentistry. Somebody has taken his slate and pencil and has figured out that there are 12,000 dentists in the ADDRESS TO CARRIERS OR United States; that $500,000 in gold is an- nually packed away in the American moath, besides silver, platina, zinc, pewter and other precious metals: in three centuries all the gold now in existence will have been buried; 200,000 artificial teeth are annual- ly inserted in the American gum. Here the figures stop, but they ought to have been continued thus: There are 478,000 tooth-aches during the year, producing 9,760,000 aggravated cases of profan- ity, and costing $8,948,526 75 in dentists’ bills, to say nothing of expensive materials. If the decayed teeth in the mouths of citi- zens of the United States were laid end to end they would reach entirely round Lake Superior: if piled together. they would measure 83,426 bushels. This sort of thing might be continued indefinitely; buat probably enough figures have been given to convince any one that statistics are great things. GARFIELD AND HIS DEFENSES. The Republicans said they would not stoop to defend Mr. Garfield’s personal record. Mr. Garfield had it given out be- fore he left Washington for his home in Ohio that he would pay no attention to the corruption that had been in connection with charges of brought against him the Credit Mobilier, De Gollyer and back salary swindles. But ali these resolutions have been abandoned. Mr. Gartield and his party have been on the defensive from the very moment Mr. Garfield Was nominated. The charges against Mr. Gartield’s personal integrity are so clear, so well founded, so well backed up by Republican testimony, so thorou ghiy convincing, that there is noth- ing left but to belicve them if they are left to spexk for themselves. more respectable element in the Republican party could hardly go to such an extreme as to advocate aman for President who a Re- The had been convicted of perjury by publican Congressional Commnittee out some word of palliation or explanation. Nution, the Springfield Harper's Weekly saw this, with- Journals like the Republican and and each of them has been trying its hand at adefense. We have read all these ar- ticles in calmness and witha sire to do Mr. Garfield justice, but they They are in- sincere de- are all lamentable failures. tricate. labored and casuistical. Even if the tine they were true, they are not sufliciently intelligible conclusions dra to be understood by the masses of the peo- ple. Take, for instance, a two anda half ' cOluinn defensive editorial that. appeared | last week in tne Cincinnati Guze'te, and we Government | ee eee — --o——- — defy any honest Republican to draw any comfort or satisfaction from it. Mr. Gar- field has himself spoken through a Mr. Somebody, who is writing his biography, aud here too we find the same long, labor- ed, complex and confused excuse that has appeared in the Republican journals, whole theory of Mr. Gartield’s defense is that Oakes Ames Poland Committee made a mistake. the very same basis Schuyler Colfax, and Was a liar and that the Upon all the others condemned at the time, by both Congress and public opinion, could be vindicated. No, the that the proofs of Mr. Garfield’s connec- tion witl» the Credit Mobilier are as clear as the Mosaic commandment, ‘*Thou shalt not steal,’’ and Our Republican friends certainly have our syinpathy, for itis net a pleasant thing to be compelled defend that for which there is no defense. simple truth is any escape is to WANTS ANOTHER PREDICTION. SPRINGFIELD, MO., July 22, 1880. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch: I have been a reader for a long time of your valuabie paper; probably I am one of the ear- liest subscribers on your books. During this period I huve been astonished time and again at the boldness and accuracy of your political forecasts; I have watched them faithfully and I bave never yet found vou in error. When that gallant soldier and prudent statesman, Senator Vest, was before the _ people and the Misscuri Avpublican and other papers of that ilk were filling column after column to prove bis election an impossibility, you alone constantly and steadily predicted the result. When the eyes of the Democracy were tura- edupon New York, the ’osTr-DIsPaTcH was the first paper to reiterate and emphasize the afterwards proven fact that Robinson could not cairv that State. It was the Post-Dias- PATCH that asserted Tilden’s own inability to carry New York, and what was the event? When the whole country believed that Grant would certainly be the nominee of the Chicago Convention, even hefore the Springfield bear- curden had scent in forty-two ad- ditional Grant votes, your paper announc- ed that the third-term candidate would be beaten, and he was beaten. The Post-Disparcn, again, predicted that Tilden would not be the choice of the party at Cincinnati. This inthe face of the fact tnat hisclaims were weged by a great number of the oldest and heaviest Dem- Ocratic papers inthe land. You even went so faras tosay long beforehand that his name would not be presented to the conventioa, hopeless, ee ee ee The | and the resuit followed the prediction with a | closeness tbat was simply marvelous. In Missouri your foresight in stating that Co}. Crittenden would be nominated on the first ballot, givire the exact vote by counties, is only a fresh instance of what! am free to confess [think a most remarkable instance of prevision, The assertion was bold ihat for once Il thought 1 had you tripping, but you were right again. l remember there fulfilled predictions, and because Lnever knew you to make one that was not fulfilled I want vou to make another one. | Will Hancock sweep the country, as our Democratic papers claim’? Wil! this eiectiou so caught be a Democratic walk-over, or will it be a bard and difticultly won race? In fine, will our-candidates be elected? I want you to answer these questions, if you will, not as a Democratic paper working energetically for Democratic victory. and 80 blinded partly by enthusiasm and partly by policy to tbe rea] facts in the case, butas a calm, clear-headed, and wise journal, weigh- ing both sides fairly and squarely and announcipg vour real opinion of the result as you have always done before, and as I hope you wil! always do hereafter. If you wili honestly answer my question you wiil oblige an old reader, and will probably fur- nish some food for thought to the apemocratic party. J. F. M. [We honestly believe that Hancock and English have the better chances of election, but we are equally sincere in admitting that a great deal of the average talk of the average Democratic papers about a ‘‘walk-over’’ or ‘dead sure’”’ thing for Hancock is foolish twad- dle. Hancock will probably carry Indiana, New York and New Jersey, and that is enough with the vote of the South to elect. But it is very plain that Indiana and New York can not be carried without a tre- mendous struggle. The talk of Democratic success in Ohio, Wisconsin, Illinois, or even Pennsylvania, is simply childish. The talk about Conkling, Cameron & Co. help- ———_ ing to defeat Garfield is _ silly. The Republican party will be | perfectly united on election day and make as desperate a fight as any body would who struggles for life itself. Suill, o-— the chances are cecidedly in favor of Han- | cock, because the Democrats can afford to | lose eightcen out of the twenty Northern States—all but New York and Inudiana—and | yet elect him. But it will be a hard, close tight.—Epiror. | PERSONAL.» —VWhen Gen. Banks takes a cobbler to eas3 apassing twinge ofthe stomach he calls it ‘*frost-work on the pane.”’ —Mr. Tilden is preparing a farewell address | but ever addréssed the conscience of a nation of treemen. 8. Weexecrate the course of this adminis- tration in making placesin the civil service a reward tor political crime, and demand a re- form by statute whichshall make it forever impossible tor the deteated candidate to bribe his way to the seat of ausurper by billeting villains upon the people. 9. The resolution of Samuel J. Tilden not againto bea candidate forthe exalted piace to which he was elected by a majority of his countrymen, and trom which he was excluded by the leaders of the Republican party, is re- ceived by the Democrats of the United States with sensibility; and they declare their confi- dence in his wisdom, patriotism and integrity, unshaken by the assaults of a Common eneniy, and they further assure him that he is followed into the retirement he has chosen for himself by the sympathy and respect of his fellow citi zens, who regard him as one who, by elevating the standards of morality and adorning and purifying the public service, merits the lasting gratitude of his country and bis party. 10.

The Greenback Candidate for Governor. | From the Howara County Advertiser. | Mr. Luman A. Brown, the nominee ot the Greenback party for Governor ot Missouri, we believe, claims to be a citizen of Howard coun- ty. In looking over the Assessor's list, we find he pays taxes in Howard county on $57 worth of personal property, consisting of one clock valued at £2, one watch and chain valued at $25. and $3v worth of household goods. A lew years ago Mr. Brown owned a good tarm and some stock, or at least now he does not own, , does not report on3 foot of land or asinpgle animal ot any kind.

The Democrats of the United States in con- vention assemblea declare: 1. We plecyge ourselves anew tothe consti- tutional doctrines and traditions ot the Demo- cratic paity as illustrated by the teachingand texsmple ofalong line of Democratic states- men and patriots snd embodied In the platform of the last Natioval Convention of the party. ~.

Inaspeechtwo years ago at a school meeting in bis district, he saidit was nothing less than robbery to tax him to pay forthe ed- ucation of other people's ¢hildren when he had none of bisown. This alone may have caused him to sell his property, and invest his money where itcould not be found by the tax-gathi- erer. So tar as we are advised, Mr. Brown has been acting with the Democratic party since he came to the State until two years ago, when he was taken up by the Independents alter the Democrats refused to nominate bim tor the Legislature, and he was beaten by Maj. Finks, receiving only 839 ot the 3,178 votes cast. He was elected to the Legislature in 1871 on the Democratic ticket, and after serving several years be ran for the State Senate and was de- feated. Since then he bas been sour at the party, and bas been drifting around seeking revenge, and we presume he now thinks he has found it. Mr. Brown is a man strictly tor himself, celd as an iceberg, neither popular nor brilliaat, and the nomination shows the desperate straits to which the party is putinthe way of official timber.

Spring Water and Fresh Air Still Forming the Bill of Fare. ee A Loss of a Pound in a Day—Curiosities from the Mails—A Fasting Story from Brooklyn. ———— (From Thursday's New York Sun. | The hours passed with rarely varying mon- otonv in Clarendon Hall, yesterday. Dr. Tan- ner bad bx usual drive in the morning up to the spring, where the demijohn was filled, then naps in the hammock, a walk around the hal), and then more cat naps. The visitors were few. They entered the hall on tiptoe, spoke in whispers, gazed at the faster in apparent awe, and silently departed. There were exceptions. OUneoftbem was & man from Vermont, who insisted upon getting the Doctor’s autograph, with the date and minute and his weight. The faster grumbled some, but wrote the required words in a neat, tirm band, without the suspicion of a tremor. One peculiarity of the Doctor’s hand: is thatthey are plump andshapely. There is pot the least appearance of emaciation about them. At 1:1o showing thatthe faster was previous days. His “ege was S4, his tem- perature 99 1-5, and his respiration 16. At 1:25 he took four ounces of water. The af- ternoon was passed by the window, and at 6 o’clock, after his temperature and pulse were taken and found to be nearly normal. he slipped from the hammock, trotted down stairs,stood on the scales, and lifted the beam at 132 1-2 pounds, showing a loss of one pound since the previous day. His height was nottaken. The Doctor is not inclined to agree with the theory that his diminution in stature is owing to the wasting of cartilage. ‘*Yousee,’’ he said, as be sat on a bench waiting for the carriage that was totake him riding; ‘‘you see. my stomach being empty, there isreally nothing tohold me Up, and the tendency is for meto stoopover. It is almost impossible for me to stand up so,’’ and the empty man made an effort to protrude his ab- domen, the only apparentresult beingto ex- hibit 2 waistcoat many sizes too large. ‘Now, you fill me out with watermeion,’’ he continued, “and you’ll see that I straighten up and regain my usual height.’”’ The Doctor evidently longs for that first watermelopv. When he broke his fast after the forty days without foed in Minnesota it was with a‘watermelon. Then he put on t8p of that six California pears and two apples, topping off this repast with a pint of milk. ‘‘The milk seemed to gotothe end of my toes,’? said the Doctor. About six o’clock tke carmage drove up in front of Clarendon Hall. 1t was immediately surrounded by an open-eved throng. The Doctor trotted strongly down the steps, chuckled a little girl underthe chin, took his seat, and, with three other men, drove off. He was gone over two hours, 2nd the change the dynamometer registered &4, from the motion and air of the streets to the | air of the hall was not pleasingtohim. He | went intoafront ante-room, and asked that | a cot might be placed ontables by the win- dow. It was not convenient, aud so the Doc- tor perched himself in the winaow sill, and | sucked the end of his cane. Visitors camein and stared at him. He didn’t take kindly tothis,and soon jumped | down, trotted up stairs, and, throwing him- selfin bis hammock, went to sleep. At balf-past ‘) the watcbers were exchanged. Then a dreary silence prevailed in the hall. In his net the Doctor slept soundly. His watch- ers tipped back in their chairs and snoozed, or sat by the table, where burned a solitary lamp, and talked medicine. ‘The gas was put out in the body of the hall, andit was dark and gloomy. From anopen window came laughter, the clatter of dishes and the smell of food, and inan adjacent beer garden could be seen ajolly party having a late dinner. The mail vesterday brought a batch of let- ters, good, bad and indifferent. Amongthem were Many verses. (ne admirer writes: Dr. TANNER, Prize Lent Keeper of the World: Drarn Srrn—Accept the congratulations of an adinirer for baving sustained your fast so long. Excuse the liberty of asking you if you are not of Irish descent, as that nation through the pasttwo centuries has been the createst to abstain from food. Mvy father be- lieved in your theory and wished often that it were possible to live a life time without eat- ing. After a hearty supper late last night my muse was inspired to the following: - All hail Dr. Taaner of appetite small, Who consumes cooling water and no food at ail! Although the worl’ calls yon a very fast man, We know ’tis but water that is in yourcan. All success to your task, And when you win the stake, Enjoy then thv inelon, put Bewure ofthe ache. 1 ST.

There was a letter purpose to be from a boarding-bouse keeper in Washington, who said that she was not surprised that the Doc- tor got fat on water. She had tried it in tea, coffee and soups on her boarders with the best of results. Dr. Wm. A. De Long, of Williamsburg, , gives the following account of his experience | weaker than on. /' mike an , TOO. with a fasting patient. David Lopes, 90 years of age, a veteran of the war of 1812, and a distant relative of the Dos- tor’s. Mr. Lopes was staying at Dr. De Long’s residence at the time, and was under bis care. The Doctor says: “On March 7 he complained of feeling poor- ly, apd expressed an inclination te lie abed, which he did. For the first two or three days he refused all nourishment, either in liquid or solid form. impressing upon him the necessity of taking something, i one day persuaded him to have some milk and some wisky made into a punch. For thirty-one days succeeding he did not partake of one particle of food either in solid or liquid form, por any stimulant of any kind. Hé drank freely, however, of water. On the 17th of April he died. Some people might accuse me of neglect in notinjecting beef into the rectum. The principal reason why I did not was that I expected every day to be his last, and I did not believe in torturing him, feeling certain as I did that it would bave no beneficial result. Besides, I did not know that the beef would become absorbed. After death his face was somewhat thin, Dut the body had not lost any flesh.’’ Cheap Baby Carriages.

Inside Workings of Combinations—The Feelings of the Neglected Southeast, ‘The trains from Jefferson City last evening and this morning brought to the city the army of delezates, candidates and statemen generally who for the past five davs have been shouting and perspiring atthe State capital. More than half of the returning Southeast and Southwest delegates went right on through from the depot. The Others came upto the Laclede Hotel, and spentthe evening in standing around and discussing the work of the convention, or in taking in the sights of the city. The Southeast ans Southwest dele- gates, While prepared to cheerfully support the ticket, made no effort to control taeir chagrin at being actually With- out representation on the ti€kec. They recalled the remarks of HENRY NEWMAN, of Randolph, who went before the State Cen- tral Committee in behalf of Moberly last spring and said, *‘In asking that you locate this convention with us 1 speak in behalf of the 150,000 Democrats of North Missouri, who have no offices, or candidates, and destre to present none.” “Now,” said a returning Panhandle member, ‘“‘ihey have got the entire ticket.””’ Dick Sylvester and a party of friends from the First Congressional District were bewailing the treatment received by the Southeast, when a PoOST-DISPATCH re- porter asked, ‘‘Why, then. did you not nominate Holliday’’’ ‘*We_ § knifed Holliday because he plaved double with us, and because he went back upon Carter,’ promptly replied Dick and his frienas in eborus. Ali evening they stood arvund and talked about how this combination and that prevailed. Many of the vounger men express- ed great symnpatby for Noland, but said that afters Burns had gone back on Martin they could pot fail toslaughter the young JacksOnian. It bad been intended to reopen the fight on Treasurer before the adjourn- ment, and a resolution was already prepared, but the opposition,getting wind of the matter, FORCED AN ADJOURNMENT witbout passing the usual complimentary reeolutions to the chairman, secretaries, etc. Ketchum, a badly defeated candidate for Railroad Commissioner, received 62 votes on the first ballot, 27 of which were from St. satisfaction that, although he bad missed the place himself, he bad, by a transfer of his strengc in the country to Pratt. succeeded in laying Jim.

THE DUKE’S HOUSE. (From Chambers’ Journal. |! } was born in an old chartered and very pic- turesque town in & Western county, in whose vicinity stood an ancient and ducal palace, which had not been occupied for many a long year, and, Jike other buildings left to decay, and bad the reputation of being haunted. There certaisly were strange sights and sounds to be seen and heard sometimes by those who were near the place at dusk aud after dark, but it was never looked ioto. The yoeducated were too superstitious and frightened: the better class were too busy or tov indolent, and we had no rural police in those daystotrace outthe causes. It wasa great pity for sucha fine E'izanethan struc- ture to fall to ruins. I remember itasa strong and beautiful mansion, with its lawns and terrace-gardens, and its many windows as there are days in _ the _ year. This I doubted when a child, and often got the onurse-girl to walk round the house, to count them with me, but we never attained our object; for if the sun got overciouded she would be sure to see a ghost atsome gloomy window and rush off, jeaving me, terrified, tofollow. The old resi- dents bad died out, the title having become extinct; and around it were sprung up mills and factories, which prevented the aristocracy from living init. The mill-owners, too, pre- “8. ferred to be further away from their counting- 00 8 val bouses and smoky chimneys. Besides it must a once bave been a very rich man who could putit in decorative repair and keep up such an estab- lisbment. In those days our merchant princes 0 ¢ 859 were content with very modest dwellings, 0 5 50 such as many a middle-class man now-a-days 0 5 56 would deem it derogatory to live in. I am se ap writing ofa slow and sure age; we are now ia living in a fast and reckless one. oO 50 Butto my sto:v. I bad attained an age ) » 50 when chosts or hobgoblins and such like rub- bish did not terrify or trouble me. I was a married man, the father of several children, Jy when acousin came to visit us, who was highly delighted with our pretty town; and knowing her to be very clever with her pen- . cil, 1 asked her to paint me one or two scenes - in the neighborhood. This she willingly con- sented todo, and we sallied forth to fix on what should be her first picture. She thought the view fromthe Duke’s house—as it was cailed—would be the best. I told her she dared not trust herself in there,forit had been uninhabited for the last century. and was baunted. She laughed, and said she did not believe in ghosts; she was not so much frightened at the dead in solifary places as at the living; and her curiosity being excited, she wanted to explore the old building. So, whilst she went for her easel and materials, I got the keys from an old man who lived in the old court-yard of the ducal residence. We walked through the rooms admiring their old grandeur, the lofty marble columns standing on marble bearths each side of the tireplaces, supporting the grained ceilings, with coats of arms and other devices carved in marble between them. The tapestry round the walls smelled mouldy, but was in a won- derful state of preservation, and no worse than when, a boy, twenty years before, I had pitied the ladies who worked so hard to cover their rough stone walls. My cousin selected ‘aroom forher first sketch, and, as I was leaving, I advised her to lock the door after Going into the room in which I had left her, I gazed into the recesses, andfound her hud- dled up in a corner. ‘*Mary, my poor, dear child,’’ I exclaimed, ‘will you ever forgive me’’’ ‘*Hush, hush! for pity’s sake, hush!”’ she said in a whisper, **Why did you hot answer me when I called you?’ I replied. I felt her whole frame quiver, and then, as 1 was assisting her to rise, she fell on me in a fainting fit. I had no light, not even a fusee in my ket, and no one was withincall. At length I thought of the water she had for her work; it might revive herifI could find it. | laid her down gently, and groping about for the water sprinkled her face, which had — the effect of bringing ber around. Hurriedly rising, she exclaimed: ‘‘Oh, eome away. Take me out of this horrid place! 1 began to rally her about the absurdity of her fears, and her telling mein the morning “he was not superstitious. ut she imterrupted me by saying: ‘‘I have seen no ghost. Weare ina den of hor- rid thieves and murderers! I!saw two bodies dragged up stairs, stripped of everything, With just a sheet around them. Oh, come F out of the place, or weshall bethe next. 7, CRY E WHIS- me, to guard against intrusion; but she ob- pwn to Our jected to this, saying she never locked herself pee one in any room, for fear of sudden illness; butif he label of 1 would lock the door on the outside, and call dleal pro for heraslcame from the bank, she would rm the be much happier to know she was secure pba from interruption. After some hesitation, I . consented to do this, and with the key in my pocket went to business. It Was just closing time, and I was locking ing ade up the strong room when the manager drew d it pleas- my attention toa matter which involved a oe protracted search of papers—a search, how- ever, Which happily proved successful.

To my wife’s interrogatories respecting her ilinese, the poor girl assured her that she was notill, butterrifed. ‘‘I will teli you all,’ she added, **when I get home.’’ I was thankfulfor the light ard left them walking on, whilst I ran up for Mary’s paint- ing materials, and, locking the door, [ put the key in my pocket, meaning to return again after dinner and try to elucidate the mystery. When I joined them, Mary was asking my wife how she dared come alone all the way from my house to that dreadful place. Shereplied she would rather do so atany hour of the night than be keptin suspense, and added: “*Assoon as the day began to close, Lleoked for you; but as you did not come, I theought Frank must have called for you, snd was lionizing youinthetown. But when fully an bour after dinner was ready. he came back without you, and rushed off like a madman whenI asked for you, I was forthe moment bewildered; but thinking vou must have been takenill, and that Frank would want be)p end a light, I hurried to the kitchen fora lantern, and told one of the girlstoput on her things and accompany me to the Duke’s house, for vou Were there, and must haye been takenvil. But would you believe iY he flatiy refused, saying itserved by right for going there; you would never ve found, for never a person going near that house afier dark was ever seen afterward. I ridiculed her nonsense, and sppealed to the oihers;: but neither would go, sol had no otber alternative but to come alone.’’ When we reached homel went to the cellar avd gota bottle of Moselle and made Mary drink off halfa tumbierful,and then we sat cown to dinner. We were justsettled to aes- sert when a friend dropped in for a hand at whist, and wondered at our being so late. I! iold him the reason, and then asked Mary for her story, as1 had forbidden her talking about it uptil sbe had got ber dinner. She began: “After you left mel worked on fora long while, until, feeling hungry, I Jooked at my watch and found it was past two o’clock. I then ate my sandwiches, and after taking a turn through some of the rooms, set- thdinto work again. I had not been long thus occupied when I was aroused by strange, irregular noises which seemed to come from the landing above. I then awoke to the consciousness that I had been hear- ing a scuffling of feet for some time. The scuffing commenced again, and I got up, moved cautiously to the door, which was ajar, and looked out just in time to see an old hag dissapear ina doorway above, and the door closed softly behind her. I meyers up and noiselessly opened the door. and peeped in; butto my ereat surprise the room was empty. I walkedinto see if there was any other door through which she could have passed; but there was not; nor was there a wipdow she could have got out of. I was fairly puzzled, for you know Idon’t believe in ghosts. I wentdown to my room, but could not settle to work. I went up again and again, but could ‘discover nothing, nor couldI detecta sound. It was broad day when I saw ber, and now I found it was get- ting too dark for me to do any more of my painting,so I gathered all together and put them in one corner, ready for to-morrow morning, and sat down to wait for you. As it was now getting dark, and I had been ex- pecting you since 3 o’clock, I thought you must bave forgotten me, so I went down to see if I could find any means of egress. AsI could not, I returned to my room, where I could watch for you coming; for it was not so dark butI could see any object cros;ing the court. Whilst I was thinking whetber I should tell you about the old woman to-night or wait until to-morrow, the wind rose moan- ing amongst the trees, which made it very dreary; but soon I heard sounds above the soughing of the winds, strange, heavy thuds below me; and the legends you told me as we walked through some of the rooms in the morning rushed to ~~! mind; but I seon ban- ished such nonsense, knowing it must be pro- duced by living beings.” ** What did he tell you?’’ asked my wife. “Why, he told me about avery wicked Duke, who, for some baleful reason, whipped his unfortunate wife every night through the house, her lamentations being heard by any one who bad the temerity to be near the house after dark. Well, all was quiet again fora while, when I heard voices, and the sound of something behind shufiled and dragged up the stairs toward the room I was in. I crept be- bind the door, and, holding my breath, peeped through the crevice. Tomy horror I saw two ruffians dragging up something wrapped in a sheet; they dragged it to the room I had examined by daylight. The door opened, emitting a lurid glare. They entered but did not stay long, for they soon came out, and tramped down stairs again, leaving the door partly open. 1 heard the sound of their footsteps die away in the low- er basement, and,all being quiet, I stole quiet- ly up the stairs and peeped into the room. There, before a fire of red embers, stood the old hag Isaw goup in the afternoon. She was stirring sometbing in a caldron on the fire, gibbering and muttering like the witches in **Macbeth.’’ She turned round, and ['tthougnt her gaze fell on me. I felt mysélf sliding down, andremembered no more untilI was again aroused by the same two demons coming up withanother bundle. What could Ido? They would soon be up. I knew pew that the old witch bad not seen me, for I was left unmolested. I saw I might gain my room before they could possiblv reach it, and they would noi hear me above their own din. I did £0, and knew no more until you roused me. When she had ended, I said: ‘*Mary, dear, do you not think you must have dropped off to sleep whilst waiting for me, and your gloomy surroundings caused that very ugly dream? You know it has, been proved that one minute’s doze suffices the soul for vaga- ries Which, in our waking hours, would take weeks to perform.” **No,’”’ she replied; ‘‘I did not sleep one moment. Besides, should I sleep, do you thik, in broad day, especially after I saw the ola woman vanish out of my sight?’’ ‘*Then you believe inghosts”’ I laughed out. “Indeed, Ido not; but it is all so puz- zling.’’ **And you are certain she did not come out again.’’ **Quite positive; for I did not take mv eyes off the door untill wasin the room, and I walked into the large fireplace and looked to see if she had hid herself there. But it was all clear up to the sky.”’ Well, I would believe in its being haunted rather than its being a den of wholesale mur- derers. Were our town a seaport or near the sea, I should think it were ahaunt for smug- glers, who had a scuffle with the coast guard and had brought home their dead to give them burial. Then I thought of the resurrection- ists or body-snatchers; but there was no med- ical school] in the neighborhood, or I would have putit down at once to oneof these worthies. The morel thought, the more I feit convinced it was the result of my cous- in’s disordered imagination, from being left all alone at nightfall in such a ghostly buiid- ing. After a while I said: “‘Whist is out ofthe question to-night; no one’s thoughts would be in his or her hand; so if Tom would like a stroll, I am ready for one.’’ : He eagerly accepted the invitation; but wife and Mary both sprang up and intercepted us on our way tothe door, saying I should not go out. She knew I meant to go to the house, and if I did, she would go too. I pooh-poohed the idea of going there, especially after what Mary had told us. **You don’t believe a word that I told you— Iam sure you do not;Ican see it by the twinkle of your eyes!’’ she exclaimed—‘‘and don’t you go, Tom, let me beg of you’’ (Mary had a special interest in Tom); ‘‘and then he won’t care to go alone.’’ So Tom promised, fully m the promise, I am sure; and to pass. As s00n as we got outside, I said: “Well, Tom,I did not promise nor dol wish to break yours; but am off to the ‘Duke’s.’ I have the A my pocket,and I wish te satisty ‘mystif; to-morrow it may be too late. ‘Then you believe Mary’s story?’’ he oO Well Iam bound to believe it; but it is ning to keep e were allowed “Indeed, ’? she’ lied, “I think it all t , Wrong to give me such a ; We had reached her by this time; and by _ ee rers or ghosts, and I’li find out be- fore.Y ouabe back. eBut don’t go in until I re- turn, or you will be sendmg my-wife after me, ard all will depend on quiet.” **Nay,”’ he said, ‘‘If you gol will.

I firmly believe Tom hoped fora brush with the Villains. Arriving there, we walked around the house before entering it, and peered into eve- ry nook we could find. Atlast we directed our glance tothe upper regions, and about bal!f way up the circular tower we thought we could discern alight. This wasthe wing Mary had chosen for ber sketch. Tom could see ittoo. So we determined on entering. and, if possible, solving the riddle. As we reached the second tanding—it was a noble staircase with its carved balustrade—we beard voices and thumping as of beating heavy substances against the walls. When we came to the story wnence we saw the light on the outside, Tom produced his lantern to find the dcor, for so well did it fit that we could see no crevice of light to guide us; and having quietl, opened it, we peeped in; but all was dark. We entered, but it was empty, and the tapestry being stripped from the walls showed nothing but the rougb, stones. All was now eo quiet toatit really s ed as thougb we had disturbed demon phantoms at their revels. I said to Tom, ‘ ‘What can be the mMeaninz of this??? Wen, just as he was going to reply. the noises commenced again, and we stepped outside and listeged attentively, Atiagt Tom suggested: ‘‘One of these niches whicb looked paneledjout for statues must be a door.” We examined the one carefully next the room we had just left, and sure enough came upon a secret Age Tom put his light out ollsigbt and put bis hand on his pist#l. [| very gently pressed the spring, when it poiselessly opened sufficiently for us to see into the room. There was the old hag atill at ber brew, and one man witb a knife dis- membering the limba of his victim. He stopped bis work to address some beings out of our sight, and we, having seen enough, quietly closed the door, ‘darted down stairs and soon reached home. Tom was always very pale, with large dark eyes, and when he entered theroom where my wife and Mary et his look told in a momeat where we had een. **Yes,’’? I said, in reply to their queries, ‘‘we have been there, and bave seen enough to appal the stoutest heart.” Here I caught Tom’s well diseembled look of affright, and could control myself no longer; I flung my- self on the couch and roared with laughter. Ilaughed solong thatmy wife began to think my brain was turned. She looked at Tom, but he kept his countenance, and con- tinued bis idiotic stare. At last, seeing they were frightened, I gasped out, ** Murder will out! The corpses were piss, scalded pigs; andthe hag wasthe old woman that sells such eplendid black puddings!’’ When I took the key back to the old man, I asked him why he had his butcher shop at the top of the old building. ‘Ob, sir,” he replied, “‘don’t tell on me. You see, sir, 1 make a little by letting it very cheap to tleese people. I should not be al- lowed were it known. They use that room becaure no one knows of it, and they are un- molested.

Attempts to Kill Both Wife and Son—A Strange History. |Frem the Philadelphia Times, July 18.J Frederick Do gett, Jr., was found on the stoop of his residence, No. 1311 Castle av- enue, last evening, with his right arm in a sling, and grouped about him were his moth- er and brother and sisters. Mr. Doggett is the eldest of ten children. Heisabroker at No. 2 Chestnut street, and is the sole support of the family, including his mother, an in- telligent woman of about forty years. ‘About a quarter ef nine this morning,’’ said he, “*Il saw my father, who has not been living with us for four years, standing on the corner of Thirteenth street and Castle avenue. The children are afraid of him, and as they were here on the porch I told them to go in. Ithen wentinand dressed myself to goto my office and passed out and up to Thirteenth street. There lsaw mv fatner on the east side, about half way to Morris street. When I passed him on the west side of the street he came over and said to me, ‘Stop’or ‘Stand,’ or something ofthat sort. I took no notice of him, and the first thing I heard the report of a pistol and as I looked around felt the bullet sting my shoulder. He must bave fired twice, forI heard one report be- fore I was shot and there were two chambers of his pistol discharged. Ithen took off my coat and saw I had been shot inthe back, but previously had noidea he would shoot me, although he had threatened to doso several times. He came straight across the street on a jog as I got opposite to him,but as 1 kept on I suppose be must have been ten feet behind. After the shooting he walked off down Morris street without speaking,and I ran to the north of Morris street and across to the lots, intend- ing to watch him. I called toa lady to watch bim also, and at _ thfs he turned and aimed the pistol at me again, but did not shoot. He walked down Morris street toTweifth andI followed him or the opposite side of the street. He turned up Twelfth and I crossed over. At Dickinson street an officer came along and I ordered his arrest, and he was taken tothe station-house on Passyunk road. He gave no reason for shooting me.” The prisoneris an Englishman and came to this country about eight yearsago. His wife andson wereloth to reveal his antecedents, butthe following facts were brought out: On bis arrivalin America he settled in Ho- boken, where he attempted to kill his wife by shooting and was held for trial. His family, aoe avoid him, moved to Brooklyn, but when bis case was called and Mrs. Doggett, who avoided being present, failed to appear, he was discharged. While here he annoyed .the family and again attempted to kill his wife. She was; however, rescued this time by the landlord, who was attracted by her outcry, and Doggett shot athim. For this he was bound over for the peac?. Finally a letter was received while Mrs. Dogett was very ill, stating that he was polng to Boston, but six months after she eard that he was in Europe. That was four years ago. After an absence of twelve months he came back and was repudiated by his wife and family, who removed to this city. Since his departure for Europe Doggett has never lived with them or contributed to their support. Since his return he has been re- maining in Philadelphia and has been fre- quently assisted by the son whom he shot yesterday. and when the latter refused to be onger ‘*bled’”’? by him ke used threats in the attempt to extort money. In England Dog- gett was a jeweler and,as his wife said, **waited on the royal family.’’ His income was large, but he squandered it in dissipation. His wife was persuaded tocome to America on the plea that, separated from his old asso- ciates, he would do better. He is, his family claim, unprincipled as well, and would confis- cate their property to his own uses. On one occasion he stripped the house of furniture, ‘‘even to the pictures on the walls,” and car- ried the Pram o away, together with his wife’s wedding presents. He was seen prowl- ing around the residence of his family for several nights recently, and is su to have been watching for his son. e latter, who has always been restrained by the thought of his relationship and by his ’s appeals, says that now he will see that his father gets the fullest benefit of the law. —Ex-Queen Teabetle is not going to Eng- as been reported; she has e Fontenoy, where she’ will remain Until au- umn. | AN HISTORIC HOUSE. Story of the Morris Mansion--- A Tradition of Washington’s Unsuccessful Courtship. Washington, Hamilton, Burr and Other Celebrated Persons Whose Names are Linked With the Place. The Rooms, the Decorations and the Furniture of the Old House. |From the New York Evening Post. | Visitors to High Bridge—the pretty little village which stands attbe northern limit of Manbattan I:land—can not have failed to observe the stulely, somewhat antiquated mansion, standingin the midst of a pretty park of some tifty acres, and overlooking city and river ard the varied Westchester plains. It is the chief in a of interest as it is the sole survivor of the many historic mansions tbat once graced the island, but is so environ- ed with city encroachments and improve- ments that its destruction seems likely to be but a question of time. Even nowthe shrill whistle of the metropolitan locomotives is beard beneath its eaves. Tenth avenue passes but a block away, and eager speculators have staked out city lots at its very gates, so hard- ly is it pressed by the great city inits eager outreaching for now territory. Few persons who pass the mansion know, perbaps, the many points of historic and ro- mantic interest that it has; how it occupies historic ground, being built on the far-famed Harlem Heights, within a mle of the site of old Fort Washington; that it was built for the dower of a lady of such beauty and grave that she was able to win the heart of the Fath- er of hie Country himself; that within its walls Washington established his headquarters while the mastery of the island was in dispute with the British, and that thither Washington came again in 1790 with all his Cabinet, on bis return from a visit to the battlefield of Fort Wathington; or that afterward a once famous Vice-President of the United States was marriedin its parlors. Yet these and maty other noteworthy incidents in its history are quite within the line of research of the in- dustrious investigator. It will not be time misspent perhaps if we devote an idle hour to a more particular narration of some of these events in its history. In 1756 no belle in New York society was more courted and caressed than Miss Mary Phillipse. She was the daughter of Freder- ick Philiipse, lord of the manor of Phillips- burg (now Yonkers), and is admiited to have been one of the most beautiful and charming women of colonial times. Washington, during one of his frequent visits to the city, met her at the house of his friend Beverly Robinson,and was so deeply smitten with her charms that, if the old tra- ditions are correct, he became a suitor for her and. A rival claimant for the hand of Miss Phil- lipse was Roger Morris, a gallant Captain inthe British army then garrisoning New York. The reader’s sympathies are with the young Virginian,no doubt, but it was remark- ed by the gossips ofthe day that he wasa slow wooer,and that the odds seemed in favor of his more ardent rival, when, unfortunate- ly, the exigencies of Indian warfare called him to the frontier, and he was forced to de- part, leaving tne gallant captain in undisput- ed possession of the field. When he had been absent some monthsa friend in New.York (whether in the confidence of the lady or not is not known) wrote to him that ‘*Morris was — close siege to Miss Phillipse,”’ and that ifbe had any interests in that quarter he could best serve them bya _ visit to the city— a bit of friendly advice which was not accept- ed, possibly because the recipient was too much occupied with measures for the protec- tion of the frontier, but probably because his chances of success seemed too small to war- rant the venture. In the meantime his rival out of the field, Captain Morris, pressed his suit with mil- itary ardor and so successfully that in 1756 | the polite society of the town was pleasantly electrified by the news of the betrothal of The match was evidently approved by the lady’s father, for he proceeded to bestow on her as a dowry five hundred acres of land on Manhattan Island, which included the site of the present mansion. The year 1776 found the colonists in arms against the mother country, Roger Morris a colonel! in the British army and George Wash- ington Commander-in-Chief of the forces of the colonies. Mrs. Morris occupied her home until the attack of the British on the city in August, 1776, when, finding that it was likely to become the theater of war, she left it basti- ly and founda refuge ,with the Tory people among the Highlands. A few days later Gen- eral Washington arrived and made the man- sion his headquarters during his operations in the drawing-room of the former mistress of his heart, and devoting tothe repose of mar- tialthews and sinews the downy beds and silken canopies that had been intended for far daintier uses. Butthis mili occupa: tion lasted orly a short time, although the mistress of the mansion never returned to her charming retreat. At the close of the war her estates were confiscated, and she went with her husband to England, where ske lived to a good old age. Fourteen years later, in 1790, Washington, with a goodly number of dames and cavailiers, sid asecond visittothe old mansion. In is journal he has given us a detailed account of the event. He says, under date of July 10, 1% . 190: ‘‘Having formed a party consisting of the Vice-President, his lady, son and Miss Smith; the Secretaries of State, Treasury and War and the ladies of the two latter, with all the gentlemen of my family, Mrs. Lear and the two children, we visited the ola position of Fort Washington, and afterward dined on a dinner provided by Mr. Mariner, at the house lately Col. Roger Morris’, but confiscated and now in the possession of a common farmer.’’ This ——— Mariner was a noted charac- ter in the Revolution, and was engaged with Captain Hyler in the somewhat celebrated iwhaleboat warfare,’’ which consisted chiefly in making night descents on the enemy’s coasts, and making prisoners of such — nent persons as came in their way. After the war he kept a tavern at Ward’s Island and at Harlem, and became a noted caterer. It was in this eapacity that he was employed to pre- pare the dinner for as imposing a company of guests as the mansion ever entertained. In 1803 Morris’s was again in the market, and for a time it seemed probable that Colone! Aaron Burr, who was then living in princely splendor at Richmond Hill, would become its purchaser. In November of this year he wrote to his daughter Theodosia in regard to the exchange. Her letter in reply, dated Clif- ton, S. C., December 10, 1803, is interesting as showing what one of the most charming and accomplished women of her day thought of the mansion. She says: ‘*The exehange has employed my thoughts ever since. Richmond Hill will, for a few years to come, be more valuable than Mor- ris’s, and to you, who are so fond of town, & lace so far from it would be useless; so much = my reasoning on one side; other. now for the Richmond Hill bas lost many of its u how many de- ] hundred irty acres; how much of your taste displa In ten or twe hence one acres on hy will be a ty; and | something stylish, elegant, respectable and Captain Morris Rogers to Mary Phillipse.: on the island, holding stern councils of war > suitable to you in having a handsone country ae bo that, on the whole, I vote for Mor- But Col. Burr did not purchase the mansion at this time, though thirty years later he married its mistress, and res:ded there for some time, and met a Class of law students in the room fermerly occupied by Washington of the mansion is both varied and interesting, but is so near our own times that it is scarcely necessary to repeat it here. An account of the visit which the writer made to itrecently, in company with a gentle- man familiar not only with the place but with its history as well, wil) nodoubt prove more acceptable. The main hall of the mansion, Which one enters from the pillared porch, is, with its ancient portraits, its polished oaken floor and creat depth and roominess, the near- est approach we have perhaps to that of an ancient baronial castle. This hall opens by foldirg doors into the drawing-room of the mat srion—the samethat was used by Wash- ington a8 a rcception-room during his mili- tary cccupancy. Here he received bis visi- tore, listened to his orderlies’ reports and cictuted bis answers, and here at the last was held the council] of war which decided that Manhattan Islena shvuld be relinquished. The floor of this room, and indeed of every apartment in the huuse,is of oak, and so high- ly polished that it iff.rds an _ insecure fuoting to one used to carpeted rooms. , ‘I'he wall paper has a ground work of green, with raised figures of vine and leaf having the ap- earatce and texture of v<lvet, and its color- pg isasfresh and vivid as though nearlya century and a bailf had not passed since it left the band of the artisan. in this room also hargs a beautiful chandelier, which was formerly the property of the unfortunate French Geperal Moreau. A winning stairway atthe right of the hall leeds the visitor totke suit of apartments above, and ushers him first into a hall direct- ly over the one below, and of about the same dimensions. From this hall one may step out upon a balcony which commands a mazgniti- cent view of city, river and Sound. Washing- ton’s bed-chamber was onthis floor, at the rear of the hall and directly over the drawing- room: there is nothing noteworthy about it except that it contains a number of sécret coors and closets, not all of whichfare known to the present residents. Two small ante- chambers, one on each side, were occupied by his aide, one of whom was Alexander Hamili- top. The old oak bedstead on which Wash- ingtan slept is still preserved with other treasured relics in the attic ofthe house. | Having seen all the objects ef interest that tbe old mansion contained, although but very few of them are included in this description, we were invited toa walkinthe grounds, which are extensive, comprising about one hundred and thirty acres. Even here the an- tiquity of the place is apparent. The great lo- custs that Jine the main approach to the man- sion are dead at the top and Roary with age. A great Madeira-nut tree, with gnarled trunk and wide-spreading branches, and a huge ce- dar of Lebanon, which was brought a tiny root from its native mountain, could have been pourisbed to their present proportions only by a century of sun and showers; ajhedge of slow-growing trees brought from Andatu- sia, in Spain, which surrounds an ancient fountain’s bed onthe estate, also gives evi- dence of extreme age. After passing some time in the grounds and making pilgrimage to several points where charming views may be obtained, we took our leave, remarking on the striking contrast presented by the old mansion to the great city so near it, and speculating as tohow longit can be protected from the grasp of the giant which each day is bringing nearer its gates.

Interesting Facts About Dr. Tanner from * 4 | His Home in Minnesota, | f ~ His Peculiarities—A Former Fast of Forty- Two Days, and How Greedily He De- voured Food at the End. !From the Chicago Evening Journal. | MINNEAPOLIS,MINN., July 19. —This charm- ing city has once more been brought into notoriety. Dr. Tanner, who is now under- taking to fast forty days in New York, claims this as his home. He came here four years ago, and has practiced medicine in bis eccen- tric way exer since. He was associated here with Dr. Moyer, who divided the use of his office with him. - No one 1n the United States to-day is looked upon witb such a degree of curiosity as Dr. Tanner. Eventhe Presiden- tial candidates pale before this abstentious monstrosity. 1 will rat ta something about this notorious inaividual. £ Dr. Tanner is an wousual person, both phy ieee and mentally. Physically he is well developed, possessing a strong constitu- tion. Heis lethargic,»so much so that it is no troubie for him to sleep twenty out of twenty-four hours on astretch. He cansleep anywhere and in almost any position. When he puts in his solid twenty hours, he general- ly takes the lounge, and sleeps without snor- ing. He is lymphatic, and grows fleshy very rapidly when he allows bimself to eat as or- dipary white folks do. He has a phenomena) Organization, as has been shown already in his presentexperiment. Mentally heis very willful, and delights ia having his own way. He has good reasoning powers, but lacks in the essential practical elements. These quali- ties are not common, and they ure so united in btm that heisableto do what in former times would bave required a miracle. Thisis not the firsttime that Dr. Tanner has fasied. In 1877 he fasted forty-two deze, but was not watched all the time to see it was legitimate. We bave his word that it was, and we also have the testimony of Dr. Moyer, who was with hima great deal of the time. The fast took place in the office of Dr. Moyer, andthe latter withessed the p as much as his practice would permit. In reply to your correspondent’s question whether he thought the Doctor at that time took anytbi in the way of eatables, he said he regarded it as a genuine fast. Dr. Tanner was out of his sight snumberof times, and he could not go on the stand and swear that he had not eaten aryibing. His condition, however, led him to firmly believe that, with one exception, nota morsel of food had passed his lips. It was not a premeditated act on the partof Dr. Tanner, but grew out of an argument on primitive Chrisiianity. The Doctor is an en- tbusiast, and very much given to hobby- riding. If he would expend his energies in his profession, no doubt he would be very reer rp As it is he barely makes a liy- ng. . DR. TANNER’S WIFE is a practicing physician, and ia considered a much better one than heis. In the early part of July he went to Hudson, Wisconsin, w she resides, to visither. Owing to some in- compatibility existing between the two, it was agreed to live apart. He returned to Minne- apolis Julv 12, very much depressed. HE WAS TAKEN SICK -the next day with summer compla‘nt and lay down on a lounge in the office. He slept nearly all the time, took no medicine and no food, only a sip of wa- ter atintervais. The tenth day he grew con- valescent, and improved just about the same way that an ordinary sick person would. . He ang Dr. Moyer have had frequeéat discus- sions, and among other subjects was that of MIRACLES. Dr. Moyer affirmed that no onecould fast forty days without divine interposition, and that when Christ, Elijah and Moses fasted, they were sustained by a Providential hand. Dr. Tanrer, on the contrary, believed differ- ently. He thought that any one could fast that length of time if he could make up his mind to do it. He believed he could do it, and in a boastful way suid he wouid try it and see how many days he could LIVE WITHOUT EATING. Thetwelfth day he looked haggard, and Dr. Moyer thought unless he ate something he would surely die; so he went to the bakery and procured crackers and milk. Oa his re- turn the discussion was renewed concernip fasting, and the milk was thrown out, an the crackers remaifed untouched: The fifteenth day, a lady sent an elegant lunch to him, and to please her the amiable Voctor ate a baked appie. This was all he ate during the forty-two days. On the twenty-ninth day he walked to Minnehaha, a distance of six miles. and returned, following the river, makiog at least a mile further. He was somewhat tired after it, but altogether he did got suffer any, The thirty-ninth day he walked out to Lake Calhoun, ajdistance of three miles. He was obhged to receive assistance toreturn. He soon began retching, and this continued for two days. It was aterrible strain on his sys- tem, and he weakened very rapidly. ON THE FORTY-SECOND DAY Dr. Moyer became terribly alarmed, and ia- sisted on his taking something iuto his stom- ach. He actually forced the first few tea- spoontuls of milk into hismeuth. His diges- tive system was so weak that he immediately threw up the milk. He was soon able to hold his food down, and then began an appetite that was almost impossiblerto appease. The Doetor was perfectly uncontrolable, and he ate everything in the most voracious manner. It was simply hoggish. He went to the-mar- ket and ate apples, oranges and figs by the dozen, and quaffed apint of milk every ten © minutes. is whole organization seemed like a sponge, and readily absorbed the fuod that was taken in this ae manner, until his maddened appetite had been gratified. The fasting for forty-two days was marvelous, but the inordinate eating so soon after, with restored life, wax even more marveious. I inquired of Dr. Moyer if he thought any one could go without food that length of time. He replied that there was not one person ina hundred who could doit. He added that he had not the slightest doubt that Dr. Tanner would succeed in his present experiment in New York. The general symptoms are about the same as those of Dr. Tanner’s first fast. What good can possibly be done by such an experiment, isan oft-repeated question. It may be of use to the shipwrecked, orto persons who are lost, to know that there isa case on record where aman lived forty days without food. It may be the means of pro- longing the life of many a hungry traveler, to know that water and air will sustain tife for a protracted time.
