the Adriatic The naval equipments are so
urgent that merchant vessels are left without
crews.
The London Times Vienna correspondent
believes there will be little or no change in the
foreign policy of Austria. She will endeavor
to make friends with Russia, but will not of
fend Germany OF the Porte. Accounts from
Hungary are extremely alarming, and there
must, sooner or later, be serious disturbances
if concessions are not made. The country is
full of Russian agents, who act almost openly.
Kossuth had addressed another large meet
ing in favor of the neutrality of England, at
Manchester. He intimated that he should
probably soon be in his native country. 1t
was reported that he (Kossuth) was the Pres
ident of a Hungarian Committee just estab-
lished at Genoa-the object of the Committee
being to encourage deserton from the Austri-
an ranks.
The Paris correspondent of the London Post
learn that arrangements had been made by the
French and Sandman Governments to transfer
to Greek and other foreign vessels coal and
other war material ordered in England and
which would have been carried by British YES
sells but for the late neutrality proclamation.
All the London papers give credence to a
report that Lord Palmerston and Lord John
Russell had come to a general agreement on
lIS supJeCt vi dIlltllleutdTy ISlOIul anu lol-
eign policy; and they predict, as a natural
consequence, that the Derby Government will
be compelled to resign soon after the reas-
sembling of Parliament
The Times alludes to designs on the part of
the Viceroy of Egypt to take advantage ofany
disturbance which may arise in Turkey, for
the purpose of obtaining, if not independence,
at least a lager measure of authority. 1t then
goes on to say that the influence of France for
the moment is supreme, but that England will
allow of no trifiing in this matter. The slight
est sign of a disposition to evade the treaty of
1910, it adds, will bring upon the Viceroy the
whole weight of Engand's power.
The Paris correspondent of the London
Star asserts that two priests have been arrested
at Alessandria and shot, having been detected
in conspiracy on the life of the Emperor.

BALL PLAYING ON THE CoMMoN.-Our
Common, at all hours pretty well used, pre-
sent, an enlivening scene from seven till eight
O'Clock in the afternoon. There are generally
at that hour at least four games of base ball or
cricket going forward every day. The bal
players put so much spirit into their game that
large numbers assemble to witness the sport
The Mechanics Club who are out nearly every
night play some excellent games. On Tues
day evening there was match game, between
the members of the club. Mr. Lawrence, tie
president, and ten others, were opposed by E.
White and ten other members the vanquish-
ed to take the whole party to supper. The
game began at ten minutes to and lasted ff-
ty minutes, the time to which it was limited.
AT eight O'Clock the talies stood, for the Law
renee side 18; Whites side %. The game
was watched with great interest by hundreds
of spectators. About week ago, Mr.. Law
renee beat Mr.. White by a long tally at a
matched game, and as the steam is up proba-
bly, the sport will increase.

POLITICAL.

Justice Sutlif, Of the Ohio Supreme Court,
who, with Justice Brinkerof, dissented from
the decision of the court says that he does not
entertain doubt that Congress has NO power
to legiSate for the extradition of fugitives
from service; nor, even if it has the power,
that the law of 1850, under which the Oberlin
prisoners were held, is clearly repugnant to
express provisions of the constitution.

there was heated contest in that city, on

STRUCK BY LIGHTNING.-A terrific thunder
storm visited London, Canada West, on the
night of the I'd inst, during which a youth
named VIM Peddie was killed by the electric
fluid while in bed. An examination of the
body showed that the electric fluid struck the
leg just above the right ANGLE, traversed the
body and entered the head about the region
of the ear, and apparently passed across the
brain to the other carl No expression of suf-
tering could be discovered in the face of the
unfortunate youth, and there can be no doubt
but that his death was instantaneous. What
makes the matter more extraordinary is that
no mark of the lightning can be found round
the bed or on it. No one was aware that the
house had been struck

FRIGnTFUL AcclDENT-O nFriday last, on
the Pittsburg, Fort Wayne, and Chicago rail-
road the whole train was suddenly precipi-
tated into marsh, the accident being caused
by the burning of a bridge the previous night
The engine landed several hundred feet distant,
and all the cars went down, forming most
awful pile of ruin. The passengers were all
more or less bruised, and several had their
limbs broken. One lady is supposed to have
been fatally injured. The Rev I. Campbell, a
young Presbyterian minister of Allegheny,
was in the train, and states that when the
shock was over, he found himself lying upon
the roof of the car, with the stove hanging i'm
mediately over his head. The car had turned
completely upside down, and he was lying
against the roof. The stove had been fastened
to the floor of the car, and kept its position, or
he might hBve been killed.

QUITE DETERMINATIONS of the chief
causes of the unfortunate distrust and hostili-
ty which exists between religious sects in this
country, sometimes taking a mischievous po-
litical bias, is the practice of thoughtless mis-
representation into which many so easily fall.
Rev. Mr.. Boyce of this city is the last victim
Having occasion to say, at the conservation of
the new Catholic church in Chicopee, that the
conservatism of the Catholic church, if it had
the power, would kill out the miserable litera-
ture in the shape of novels, which New York
sends forth by the million, his language under
goes instant misconstruction, and he is repre-
sented as saying that Catholics, if they had the
power, would destroy the free press Of this coun-
try, root and branch. Absurd as the statement
appeared to be, it found quick repetition
among those who look complacently on the ILL
founded and disastrous prejudice which has
wrought SO much harm in the history of our
time and people. The mis-statement is con-
tradicted, but not till it has run its race and
accomplished its work

LATEST FROM PIXIES PEAK.-The express
coaches, thirteen days from Denver City, ar
rived at Leavenworth on the I'd inst The
express brought no gold The news from the
mines is very untavOrable, both as regards the
gold deposits and agricultural resources of the
country. But little or no gold being discov-
ered the opinion prevailed generally that the
mines had proved failure. Half the cabins
in Denver City and Auraria were vacant
There was but little business transacting in
either place, provisions being nearly exhaust
ed. Numbers of miners are striking for the
mountains in search of game. The express
met about thousand teams on the road to the
mines. A number of foot passengers, who
started without sufficient provisions, had died
of starvation on the Smoky Hill route.

PIccoLoMINI's BOARD BILLs.-Mr. VIM.
Fish, the agent of Mr. Lumey of London, un-
der whose charge Piccolomni has travelled in
this country, has been arrested by the propric-
tor Of the Everett House, New York, for the
non-payment of the bill of Pccolomin and
her relatives for four weeks. 1t was stated in
Court that Mr.. Fish had moneys in his posses
sion more than sufficient to pay the indebted
ness, but refused to do so. 1t appears that the
whole claim amounts to about $1,000 for the
board Of seven persons for four weeks. JUS
tice Sutherland granted an order of arrest bail
able in $500 upon which the defendant was
arrested and incarcerated in prison.
