CHICAGO, Nov. 81 Weston will not ar
rive in Chicago today as expected. He re-
manned last night at LaPorte instead o.
coming to Calumet according TO his nten-
tons. LaPor,e is 60 miles from Chicago.
The reason assigned for not proceeding to
Calumet, was the lack Of trusty guidance,
Weston being afraid to trust a stranger for
fear of being m'sled. 1t is now given out
that Weston will arrive in Chicago on
Thursday At 10:i0 AN.

EXPENSIVE LITIGATION AND ExrEN

EXPENSIVE LITIGATION AND ExTEN-
s1vE EvIDENcE.--The New York
courts bid fair to rival the Chancery
suits of England. We have seen the
formidable octavos of testimony
which grew out of the controversy
of the Delaware and Hudson Canal
Company and the Pennsylvania Coal
Company, which has been going on
for decade and more; and we no.
tice that the famous Berden-Spike
case, which has been in litigation for
sixteen years, was up before Justice
Nelson, at Cooperstown, few days
since, the testimony in which is COM
prised in nine volumes, accompanied
by volume of briefs. Had the
parties compromised, they would
have saved lawyers fees, court ex-
penses and vexation of temper that
has, doubtless, shortened life.

HYDRAULIC SrEA,1ERs.-The

HYDRAULIC STEAMERS. The hy-
draulic propeller steamship has had
another trial at Stokes Bay, Eng
land, with two Admiralty screw yes
sells pitted cgeinst her. The London
Times devotes nearly three columns
to the subject, giving very minute
report of the trial, from which it ap-
pears that in six runs over the mea-
snred mile, the boat Water Witch Witch
(hydraulic) obtained an average speed
of 1928 knots with forty-one revolu-
tions of the turbine, against an aver
age of 9,267 by the screw boats, with
1O7.25 revolutions of the starboard
engines, and 10S.26 of the port en-
gines. The Times says the hydraulic
machinery "worked perfectly and
noiselessly," without '.even so much
as warm bearing from the time of
its erection" in the hold of the Water
Witch. The Admiralty has ordered
two other vessels fitted with the hy-
draulic propeller, to more fully test
its powers.

POLAND. "A correspondent of the
Pail Mall Gazette, writing from War
saw, on the 9Th instant, says:
San important decision has been
arrived ut by the authorities here and
at st. Petersburg. In order to de-
stroy as much as possible all histo-
rical recollections among the Poles,
it has been determined that Warsaw
shall cease to be the capital of Po-
land. The kingdom will be divided
into two districts, in which the chief
sseeta.ts of government viii be Kaiisch
and Lublin, Warsaw thus being re-
duced to the rank of second-rate
provincial town. Arrangements are
already being made for the removal
of the principal Government officials
from Warsaw, and the rents of houses
have accordingly fallen considerably.
This summary measure is supposed
to be partly intended as a defiance to
France, which nation, since the Be-
rezowski affair, has been the subject
of constant attacks in the Russian
press"

EQUAL TO THE PRIMITIVE APOSTLES
The Louisville Courier, speaking of
sermon preached in that city by
Bishop Pierce, of the Methodist
Episcopal Church, South, eulogizes
it as follows:
The Methodist Church South in
the morning was filled to overflow
ing, end hundreds went away who
could not even get standing room.
Bishop Pierce preached. The primi-
tive apostles never preached better.
We do not believe it to be in the
power of mortal man to do it. Said
an eminent lawyer of this city, and
man of the world: 81 have heard
Clay, Prentiss, Marshall and Bascom,
but George T. Pierce is the greatest
orator of them ALL" The enthusi-
asm was tremendous. The sermon
gradually rose in grandeur and power,
until it reached point where the
universal outburst OF feeling seemed
imminent. It was directed to the
ministers. Said an old Presiding
Elder: "Well, none Of the preachers
will locate after that, and some of
them will refuse to go to their ap-
pointments An eminent member
OF the conference said: "It has nj
ways been hitherto n question with
me as to which was the greatest SER
mon 1 ever heard. 1t is no longer n
matter of doubt; the sermon Of to-
day settled it,"

MOVEMENTS TO TEST THE AMNESTY.
The Washington correspondent of
the New York Tribune says:
Positive information has been re-
ceived here, that in Alabama and
Virginia, where the lists of registra-
tion are being revised, under the Re-
construction Act, o number of rebels
who have been pardoned by the Pre-.
sldent's recent amnesty proclamation.
have applied to have their names
registered. In Alabama the Boards
OF Registration, by order Of Gen.
Pope, have refused permission, end n
numDer OF these men in Montgome-
ry, Alabama, have taken the matter
before che courts, intending to test
the constitutionality of the Recon
struotion Act. This, of course.
opens up the whole matter again, and
may cause delay in the elections.

Haloxlin is the name of q new
species of blasting powder. which
rather cleaves than crushes, a valua-
BILE property if used in coal mines.
1t will neither ignite spontaneously,
nor by friction, nor by percussion,
and its explosion gives rise neither
to deleterious gases nor smoke. It
is twice as bulky as gunpowder, but
it is one-half more powerful, and is
composed of sawdust nine parts, char
coal three to five parts, and nitre
