ARRIVAL OF THE BRlTTANIA,
Fourteen days later from Europe.
PHrLAnELPHIA, Nov. 8.

% # FHILADELPHIA, Nov. y.
The steamer Briuania arrived on Saturday
morning, but the telegraph wires between
Boston and New York were immediately cut
by some of the spectators, time only being al
lowed to announce the fact of her arrival. She
brings dates to the 10Th ult.. from Liverpool,
sixteen days later than those brought by the
Caledonia
The steamer Great Britain was still in the
position that the Caledonia left her in, and will
probably be total loss. She had IL feet Of
water in her hold at the latest dates.
The intelligence from Ireland is Of the most
melancholy character Notwithstanding the as
sistance rendered by Government in relieving
the wants of the people, the famine was in
creasng in all parts ofthe country. A malig-
nant disease had also broken out in some
portion of the kingdom which was greatly add
ing to the wretcnedness of the people.
The marriages of the Queen of Spain and
her sister, have heen consummated without
any serious effec,s, if we except the protest by
England and one or two other Euro can pow
els. The entente cordiaie between France
and England is broken; France joins Spain in
the conquest OF the Spanish Americans.
The money market was great depressed
There were strong anticipations that a heavy
sh pment of bullion to this country would take
place, OIL account of the great demand for
bread-stuffs to supply the wants of the people.

"The funeral obsequies yesterday were

occasion in this city, especially the military

To Travel.ers.

We take the following article from the Ya-
zoo Democrat Of the nth inst. We believe IL
to Be correct in It's statement, but win not en-
dorse it.
We have been credibly informed that some
Of the stage drivers on the route between Ben.
ton and Carrolton, rein the habit Of stating to
passengers on their way south, and who de-
signed taking passage at this place tina! the
Yazoo is not avigable-thereby causing them
to lose time and incur additional expense in
going via Jackson For the benefit Of the trav-
cling community we would mention that these
drivers have reported falsely. Several boats
are now plying on the Yazoo river, and per-
sons can be furnished at this port With quick
conveyance and good accommodations.

The very latest from the Army.

| The New Orleans Picayune of the 18th SAYS
awe received yesterday, after our main news
from the army was made up, letter FROM a
distinguished officer Of the American A rmy at
Monterey, which is three days later than any
| thing we have seen. That portion of il in re-
| laiion to Bustamente we look upon as rather
doubtful. although the old general may have
been sent up in the neighborhood Of Chihua-
hua and Sonora to look after Gen. Wool We
make extracts from the letter, which is dated /:
MONTEREY, Oct. 90, 1916.
Poor Ridgely is dead. He was buried yes
terday, and is mourned by the entire army.
Major LeafWill not live TIVE nty-four hours lon-
ger. We have late news from San Louis Poto-
81 to the effect that Santa Anna was there with
$4,000 men, and no less than thirty seren gener-
ais. He was recruiting daily but his Intentions
were not known. 1t is rumored that Busta-
mente has gone north in the direction Of Chi
huahua,t to meet Gen. Wool, and farrherit is pos
itively asserted that the indians are killing and

DEATH OF CAPT. RANDOLPH RIDeELy!-We
know not, SAYS the New Orleans Delta, when
sounds more suddenly startling saluied our ear
than last evening when friend, on meeting
us, exclaimed, 'sPoor Ridgely is killed" For
a moment, the announcement deprived M Of
the power OF utIerance, but too soon we were
informed of the melancholy particulars. Our
informant was Capt. Deshen, Of the steamboat
Sea, who arrived yesterday from Brazos ST. ia
60. He left there ON Tuesday the Sd instant.
While in the Office of Capt, Hill, the Assist
ant Quartermaster of that station, few mo-
ments before going on board, an express arriv-
ed from Monterey, communicating the sad in
telligence that the gallant,-the chivalrous
Ridgely had met with an accident from which
it wasimposible to recover, and which he could
not long survive. 1t appears that on Sunday
the 25h ult., he had been riding his horse swift
ly down one of the hills in the neighborhood
of Monterey. The animal fell with great force,
the brave rider coming under, the conclusion
fracturing his skull. 1t rendered him speech
less and insensible, and left no hopes of his re-
covery. This is no idle report; it is irue-paI-
pably true. Alas! Poor Ridgeiy! hadst thou
fallen at Palo Alto, Resaca de la Palma, or at
the siege of Monterey, to the glory of Ameri-
can arms, in all ofwhich thy gallant daring did
SO siginally contribute, few would be the tears
though sincere its sorrow, which thy country
would shed over thy bier. But that thou

garland Of glcry fully aud freshly clustering thy
brow, furnishes a cause amongst us for moerD-

Masonic College.

The Masonic Institution, in the different
States is making great efforts for The establish
ment of Colleges and other institutions oflearn-
ing for the education of the poor and destitute
of their own der, as well as of others. The
Grand Lodge of Missouri some two or three
years ago established College in that State,
which is in aourishing condition. We learn
that at the recent session of the Grand Lodge
it was determined to remove the insti-
tuition TO Palmyra. The Masonic College
in Kentucky is also in fourishing state.
and although il has been in existence but a.
bout two years, during the second Collegiate
year, there have been in attendance in the DIFF
ferent departments 203 students from nine DIFF
ferent S ates. In their second annual report
the Trustees sconeratulate the Grand Lodge Of
Kentucky, and The Fraternity at large, upon
the signal and unparalleled success which has
hitherto attended the effort to build up an es-
tabishment, which while it shall educate the
orphan and destitute Of Masonic parentage, and
develope and foster native genius, shall at the
same time demonstrate TO the world, that Ma
sonic charity j. not asrnere boast but an ope-
rative and difasive principle.'' We trust that
time is not far distant when we will behold a
similar institution rising in our State under the
patronage Of the Grand Lodge.--Na,hriAe o.
