PAUL MoRPHy N PARTs.-Priyate letters to the
editor Of the Chess Monthly, bring later intelligence
from Mr. Morphy than is to be found in our foreign
files. His match TOR $50 francs aside) with Mr.,
Harrwitz stands Morphy 8, Harrwitz 2. The Cafe
de IA Regence the traditional locale Of Partisan chess
and the scene Of Philidor's, Deschapelle's and La
bourdonnaial trumphs, is crowded with spectators
whenever our coantTyman plays. A gentleman now
in Paris writes as follows:
The greatest of living French sculptors Lequesne
thepupil and successorO of PTader has asked Morphy
to Sit to him for his bust in marble. Morphy gave
him the first sitting yesterday. The bust will be ex-
hibited at the Exposition des Beaux Arts. This u.s.
think, the highest honor Mnrphy has yet received
He dimes with his Royal Hgbness the Duke of Bruins
wick on Sunday. The other night, at the Theater
Francois, half the audience stood up and looked at
him-he perfectly unconscious until il was pointed
olt to him Everybody seeks introductions to him,
and The ola players Of the time Of Labourdonnas

After finishing his match with Harrwitz, Mr.. Nor

meet ANDERSEN, Lange and Mayet, who, with Won
der Lasa at present the great opponents Of Ger

duties Of Won der Lasa (who is Prussan Minister at
Rio Janero) preclude the possibility Of bringing
about meeting between these distinguished players.

Wangarry.


Some time ago, on the Sabbath day
we wended our way to one OF our
churches, and instead of "a sermon
heard AN address upon some mission
AIRY or other benevolent subject. AT.
ter the address was concluded, two
brethren were sent round with a bas-
ket for contributions Parson =,
who was one of the basket bearers
taxing the side upon which we sat
Immediately in our front and upon
the next seat negligently reclined our
friend Bill II, a gentleman Of in
finite humor and fail of dry jokes
Parson L. extended the basket
and Bill slowly shook his head.
Come, William, give Us something,
said the Parson.
Cant do it, " replied Bill
"Why not? Is not the cause
good one?'
"lcs; but | am not able to give
anything
"poE! Poh! | know better, you must
give a better reason than that"
"Weil, owe too much money!
must be just before am generous,
you know"
But, William, you owe God lar
ger debt than you owe any one else.
That's true, parson, but then he
aint a pushing me like the balance Of
my creditors"
The parsons face got into rather a
curious condition and he passed on.

The New School Presbyterian

This body met in Knoxville, Tennessee,
on the first day of April. twill be remem-
bered that at The meeting Of the General
Assembly Of the Presbyterian Church { n.
S. in Cleveland, Ohio, last May, major
ity of that body passed such stringent reso-
lGtions on the subject Of slavery, involving
indeed a condemnation of the principles and
conduct of the Southern Presbyteries, that
the latter, following the wise example Of the
two other Protestant denominations, deter
mined no longer to submit to such outrage.
and forthwith exercised the right of secss-
sion. The obiec, of he meeting Of the
Church South, at Knoxville, is To complete

ment!
Ill tell you what, said the Squire
after a moments pause, we can carr,
out our plans after all We eacl
came out with the in,ention ofgeliin4

and lhgn, YOU know, we can make
them believe we had it in view all
along, and only intended to Tighten
them?
Ms. Benson asSented with little
urging, and, in the course Of an hour.
the TWAIN were made one. They
Immediately returned, but found, a.
they anticipated, that Florence and
Charl's, on discovering their drpar-
ture, had themselves stepped oil ia Il
different direction, with Il similar IN
tent.
They made their appearance the
next morning, prepared to laugh
heartily at the frustrated plans Of
their parents, bat learned with no lit
tie astonlshmcnt that they had struck
up a bargain for themselves. Squire
Markham and his new wife had the
address to convince them that it was
all a premeditated plan; and to tbs
day, the younger pair are ignorant Of
the plot and counter-plot, which ed
to this double union OF the two house,
holds.
