sy- The Rev. DR.. Cummings, OF Lon
don, the prophet of the end OF the world,
has found formidable rival in the ranks
of the British army. Captain Baker, OF
the Royal Bombay Engineers, who has
been initiated, it may be, by some Brah-
min necromancer, in the mysteries of the
future, has published book on the all
important subject, entitled "The Day and
the Hour,n in which he strips it of all
doubts by fixing upon the Goth day of Sep
TENDER, in the year 1873, as finishing the
last moments of humanity, as far az this
planet is concerned. The interval of thir-
teen years is to be usefully occupied by ex-
petitions to Italy, the absorption Of Greece
by Austria, and Ct Turkey BY Russia; the
climax to be capped by Louis Napoleon,
whom Capt. Baker, Notwithstanding the
entente cordiale between his country and
France, does not hesitate to characterize as
t'the anti Christ" signing a covenant with
the Jews on October 27thg 1871. About
four years afterwards the Jews are to be
restored to Jerusalem, but the unlucky
Israelites will have hardly enjoyed the
blessings of the Holy Lord during one
month when anti Christ Louis Napoleon J,
will appear and be fully revealed April
9th, 1875. The sensational era dates more
particularly from that period. Paris is
taken. The sun disappears. Stars shoot.
Louis Napoleon's (anti- Christi army in
Palestine is decimated by sickness, and
the world ends at sunset on September
goth, 1878.

How A GAME OF CHESS HELPED Coz UNI
Eus. According to the old Spanish tradi-
ton, Columbus discovery of America is
mainly due to hard fought game of chess.
Ferdinand of Spain passed two late hours
of the day over the chequered board-his
principal antagonist being an old grandee,
whose skill put the monarch's power to a
severe test. Columbus had long been dan
cling attendance at the court in pursuance
of the one aim of his life-the grant Of an
expedition in search of a new woodland
although he had hitherto failed in his aim,
vet he had enlisted the sympathies and
support Of the good Isabella. Ferdinand
was one of those matter of fact men, who
object to furthering the schemes ofenthu-
siasts. and withheld consent to a new
world expedition being formed.
Poor Columbus would long before have
sought assistance elsewhere, but Isabella
prevented him, and redoubled her efforts
with her husband. The day arrived when
the great navigator was to receive his final
answer; he wendell his way towards the
palace at night-fal more with the inten-
ton of bidding adieu to his patroness than
from any hope of success from Ferdinand.
Isabella had not, however, resigned her
self and and Columbus to defeat, and upon
the latter's arriving she Immediately
sought the king, who being absorbed in .
hard fought game with the aforementioned
old noble, was not in a likely mood to be
bothered by the application of an impor-
tunate sailor. The Queens interruption
had the effect of merely distracting the
monarch;s attention causing him to lose
his principle piece, which was followed by
81 volley of imprecations on suitors in gen
eral and Columbus in particular. The
game grew worse, and defeat seemed immi-
nont.
Now Isabella, without ever playing, had
picked up considerable knowledge of the
game, by watching her husband and the
mobiles, and when Ferdinand told her that
her protegee should be successful or other
wise according as the game resulted, she
Immediately bent all her energies upon the
board. The contest had been unusually
long, and the courtiers clustered round the
table, amused at the excitement ofth King
and the quiet satisfaction of his antagonist.
And so the game went on which was to
decide the discovery of new world, until
Isabella leaned towards her husbands ear
and whispered, ''you can checkmate him in
four moves.n In the utmost astonish-
ment the King re-examined his game,
found that his wite's assertion was correct,
and announced, in a few minutes subse-
quently, that Columbus should depart on
his voyage of discovery with the title Of
Admiral Of the Fleets"

yyhat Can the Matter BE?

Gen. Cox, the Abolition candidate for
Governor of Ohio, has been in our city for
several days, and his friends have made re-
peated attempts to get up show of en-
thusiasm in his favor; but for some cause
every effort thus far has signally failed
On Friday night it was announced that he
and his staff would attend the Theater; but,
strange to say, there were fewer persons
there that night than on any previous night
for several weeks. He did not drd,o, and, of
course, did not make his appearance. On
Saturday night, he was serenaded by an
excellent band, at the Neil House, where
he is stopping; and still no enthusiastic
crowd assembled to see and hear ''Ohio's
next Governors" The crowd was so small,
not over fifty, all told, that it was thought
prudent not to call the Governor" out
and he didn't come. What can the matter

Dea,h of M. ". III. Stafford.

The following paragraph about B. V. H.
SAFFoRD's death we find in The Zanesrille
Courier of last Friday. Mr.. Stafford re-
sided at GAINESVILLE, and had just married
the daughter of Rev. DR.. MATHER, we'll
known in this city. The young couple
were on bridal tour, which was brought
to an end very suddenly by this melan-
choly event. Mr.. S. died in Boston, we
believe. Here is the paragraph from The
. CoWier:
BROUGHT HoME.-The body of B. v. H.
Stafford, Esq, was brought to his home last
evening. We have not learned at what time
the funeral will take place. 1t may be
proper to state that the cause of death was
the breaking and internal discharge of a
large carbuncle situate near the spine
Medical advice had, we learn, been obtained
a few days before death, and it was thought
that no danger would likely arise from its
presence; but which terminated so fatally
in day or two thereafter, and brought
grief and sorrow to his numerous friends
and relatives. 1

The Celebrations OF the Fourth Of
JuIy, 1SOS.


There were all sorts of Celebrations on
the Fourth. At nearly all points, the day
was one Of the most agreeable, atmosphere
cally, of the entire season; and arrange
ments for the expression of general JOY
that peryades great people ought every
where to have been made and carried out
successfully, without reference to partisan
doemas or partisan views. The people had
abundant cause for thanktulDess and tor
rejoicing; and, at many of the Celebrations,
they were not backward in expressing their
gratitude and pleasure with becoming
spirit. The recollection of the dangers
and sufferings of the country-the great
achievements of the Fathers and their Illus
trious Sons-were subjects for serious as
well as happy reflection; and the lessons
drawn from the two great trials OF the he :
public-the establishment of its lndepen-
dence and the struggle to preserve it
were presented by many of the events OF
the late Fourth in an impressive manner.
The only discordant notes and inharmo-
nious sounds that were heard throughout
the land, came from politicians and dema-
gogues of the Republican party. They
took charge of Celebrations wherever they
were permitted to, collecting money from
the Democrats to defray the expenses, and
then insulting those generous and liberal
contributors with Incorporate and incon-
siderate partisan haraDgues, fit only to be
addressed to gatherings of Miscegenation-
lists and Negro Suffrage advocates! They
held meetings early, and appointed Central
and Township Committees, made up of
their own party friends. At many points
the Democrats comprehended the situation
and remained away, celebrating the day as
became great and patriotic people, who
still cling to the common traditions and
glory of the past.
At these Celebrations, where Democrats
and sensible Republicans intermingled and
intercbanged betting and appropriate SEN
timents and views. general joy pervaded
the assemblages, and bitterness, invective,
and denunciation were unfelt- unheard, and
unuttered. There our gallant soldiers
once soldiers, but now again citlzens-wert
hailed as our benefactors and deliverers
and welcomed from the fatigues of thu
march, the wearisome camp, and the awfu
ecstacy of battle. They who, through foul
terrible years. looked without quailing oil
the ghastly visage of war; who patiently
bore the heats of Summer and the frosts o
Winter; who cheerfully exchanged the de
lights of home tor the hardships OF the cam
paign or the blockade; who were not only
endangered by the armed foe, but alons
whose resistless advance lurked the wastin!

public were greeted, thanked, and blessed
