Among the passengers by the Asia is
Mrs. Quincy, widow of that late most esti-
mable man and distinguished phlanthropist,
Joseph John Quincy Of Norwich (England).
brother of Mrs. Fry. She designs to settle
permanently in America, the land of her
birth. A large gathering of members of the
Society of Friends assembled at LiVerpool to

On Friday last, on the arrival of the
cars of the Camden and Amboy Railroad at
South Amboy, the conductor Of the PhiIadel-
phia train discovered under the seat of one of
the passenger cars carpet bag, which, on
examination, was found to contain a male
child some ten days old. One of the lady
passengers took charge of it. 1t was ascer-
tanned that the child had been put in the bag
while under the influence of some deleteri-
GUS drug, and had thus been kept quiet while
confined within the narrow limits.
A young man named Smithson shot
young lady in Cincinnati, and wounded her

He is in prison, and the young lady in a crit

A gang OF burglars were discovered
at Work by some of the policemen on Bedford

TROUBLE AMONG THE SPIRITUALIsTs.-A
good deal of feeling exists at the present time
among the Spiritualsts in this city and vicin-
ity, growing out of the separation that has
taken place between Mrs. Cora H. V. Hatch,
the celebrated trance medium, and her hus-
band. Domestic difficulties have been the
cause of the separation, and though we are
not informed of the full facts, 1t is alleged
thatthe cruelty of her husband has compelled
Mrs. Hatch to seek the protection Of friends.
The sympathy of the Spiritualists seem to be
with the lady SO far as we can learn. 1t was
announced that on Sunday Mrs Hatch would
speak at 8 O'Clock in Clinton Hall, Atlantic
street, Brooklyn. At the hour appointed the
Hall was crowded, when letter was read
from Mrs, Hatch, stating that her husband
had made threats to prevent her from speaking
should she attempt it, and to use force, if nee
essary, to accomplish his purpose.
In view Of these facts, Mrs. Hatch asked to
be excused for not fulfilling the appointment.
In her absence, Mrs Coles and Mrs. French,
two trance mediums Of this city, entertained
the audience with discourses.
Mrs. Hatch is the fourth wife of her hus-
band, and there is great disparity between
their ages, he being over forty, aud the lady
less than twenty.-Neto York Tribune.

LIST.
AT Rio Janeiro on the 18th of July, there
was an instruction of slaves on small
scale, which at one time threatened to become
serious. Senior Antonio Ferrari Guilaracs
having determined to sell his slaves, thew Ie-
sisted, when he ordered them to be punished.
Ihereupon they took possession of the house
and, barricading the doors, assembled to the
roof, whence they assailed the people in the
streets with tiles, bricks, and pieces of furni-
ture. The slaves resisted all overtures to
surrender, until strong military force was
brought to the spot. The soldiers blew open
the doors of the house with gunpowder, and
charged the slaves at the point of the bayo-
net, but the negroes resisted to the last, and
were only captured after desperate struggle.
There were several persons severely injured
on both sides.
Senior Paranhos, who made the treaty with
Paraguay for opening the navigation of the
rivers to all flags, had returned to Rio janet
70, and received the compliment of military
serenade.
Madame Lagrange had been engaged for
the Imperial Opera at Rio Janeiro, the papers
say, at salary Of $50, 900 per annum, with
all her expenses and those of her suite of ten
persons paid.
