Trial of .Uef Ibnvis.

New YORK, Nov. 1.-The 'Tribune's
Washington special says of JEFF, Davis
trial: Messrs. Speed, Rousseau, Evarts,
and others, counsel for the Government,
announced in New York paper as posi-
lively determined on, was true in August,
but not true now. Public opinion has
charged since then. 1t is admitted as fact
that any trial in southern State would be
farce; that the Southern States unani-
mously desire his pardon; that the majority
of the Democratic party hold the same
opinion, and now that the leaders of the
radical wing of the Republican party have
expressed the same wish, it is believed it
will be taken for granted that majority OF
the nation are opposed to his punishment.

THANKSGIVING - ITs ORIaIN.- We find
the following In an exchange on the origin
Of Thanksgiving: 'a o,, ,, .,, (,
Until within, the last twenty or thirty
years, this festival was peculiar to New
England, though now observed In almost
every State of the Union, and always ap.
pointed during the month of.NOyembcr. The
credit of It's Institution is generally ascfib-
ed to the "Pilgrim Fathers" but, In fact, it
is OF English rather. than American origin.
IL dates back to the discovery, and defeat OF
What has ever since been called the "Gun-
powder Plot" during the reign of King
James l. A day OF general thanksgiving
was at that time appointed, as appears BY
the following, which we copy from curious
old work: ...-.,. .. -. -. 49,.
, I'tAnd james was glad that he was alive;
therefore he appointed the fifth day of the
month OF November as a day of thanks
giving forever. And bonfires are made,
and sqdibs and crackers are let off In the
streets in,derision of the devil and his gun
powder plot until this day"

BIELA's CoMET.-As the cholera and BIZ
elias comet are just now threatening us
with visit, we copy the following account
of the movements of tire latter:
If the earth ever. ,collides with Biela's
double comet, as some astronomers have
supposed, the crisis cannot be far Distant
The comet is coming toward the earth at
speed considerably greater than that of
Flora Temple. just now it is hardly worth
while searching for 1t with an opera glass.
1t is not yet sufficiently near us to be
discerned with the telescope, its present
distance being one hundred millions of
miles, and its position near the left arm of
Andromeda. 1t is slowly moving into the
adjoining constellation, Pegasus, and on the
first day of November next it will be close
to the bright star Markab, one of the four
bright luminaries Which form the we'll
known square of Pegasus. 1t will then
pursue southerly course, crossing the ce-
lestial square about the middle Of Decem-
Der. Singularly enough. 1t then crosses the
old path followed in 1915, and near q point
where it was then observed to separate into
two comets. 1t will continue to approach
the earth until the end of February, when
its distance from us will be only eighteen
millions of miles. At that time it will,
however, have advanced far into the South
ern heavens, and disappeared from here
and in higher latitude. 'J.4

AN OUTRAGE ON PRopERrY BY Boys

AN OUTRAGE ON PROPERTY BY Boys
Whatever may be said in Justification of
boyish tricks on Halloween, there is no ex-
cuse for injuries to property. The City
Police ought to be vigilant and on the alert
to prevent such outrages. A case of this
kind has come to our notice which occur
red on Tuesday evening; other outrages
were doubtless perpetrated, of which we
have not heard.
Early in the evening, Mr.. J. Reeves, the
DAGUERREAN, and his wife, who reside on
Seventh street between Mound and Friend
streets, were called from home to atten at
the house OF near relative, whose child
was supposed to be dying They were
obliged to leave their dwelling without any
person in it. In their absence crowd of
rowdy boys came along, and, as they had
been doing ut other dwellings, made an as
sault upon the front door of Mr.. Reeves
house. AS nobody was within, the door
was of course not opened.
The boys then went to the window of q
bedroom; broke in the glass and sash, and
threw bowlders and other dirty missiles
upon the bed, damaging it and the iurni-
ture in the room. II there were any police
in the vicinity, they were either unaware
of what was going on, or were very remiss
in the discharge of their duty. It's on oc-
casions like this that the guardianship Of
the policeis most needed.
