| The leader of the New Revolution in Spain.

: W LIZ AEA VI ~ 4 hhtN0AAtAghA n SEoAA
Carlos Luis Maria Fernando, Count
de MQptemQlin. is the eldest son and
heir Of Don Carlos, the pTetender, by
his wife Maria Francisco de Assis,
daughter of King John VI, of POrtq-
gal, and was born on January 81, 1913.
After the disastrous defeat OF Don Car
los H., in 1889, by the royal troops
under Generals Espartero and Mar
Vaez, he retired succeSSively to France
and Austria, and eventually abdieated
in favor of his eldest son, in the year
1916, In the year 1916 the Count de
Montemolih left BQurges and took up
his abode in England. In tie month
of April, 1919, he made an attempt to
introduce himself into Spain under
disguise, but was arrested and con-
tined iG the citadel of Perpignan for a
few days. In the year 1855 he married
Maria Carolina Ferdinanda, sisl6T 70
the late King FerdinandII. 0fNaples.
Still considering that he possessed
nc sigi.t to the throne of Spain, the
recent revolution against Queen lSa-
bella stimulated his endeaVnrs to reQr-
ganize his party, which were carried
on from Paris, in which city he has
been living for some time. On the
18th ult. he succeeded in evading the
vigilance Of the French police who
were placed to weteh lis movements,
and although hotly pursaed, made
good his entry into Spain. Successive
telegrams hare proved the fact that
his party is 6f considerable magnitude
anddispersed throughput the country.
Shouldfbe once succeed in concentrate
ing his adheFentS in manner to eff
fectively resist the government fQFoes,
it may be the commencement OF one
of the bIoodiest epochs experienced
by that unfortunate peninsula for
may years.

Isthmus. He collected laborers from
all over Europe, subsisted them on the
arid sand-bank through which the
canal was cut, and by the beginning
of the coming November he will have
removed ninety-seven million cubic
yards Of earth, which, if piled in one
prolonged bank, one yard high and
one yard in width, would be more
than ffty-five thousand miles in
length, and would reach twice around
the globe. The canal is one hundred
miles long, twenty-six feet deep, three
hundred and twenty-eight feet wide
at top, and two hundred and fOrty-six
feet wide across the bottom. The cost
of this immense undertaking will
amount to eighty million dollars in
gold. When the Kings and Princes
who VIII assemble ut Suez in Novem-
Der are forgotten in dust, pOsterity
will cherish the name Of Ferdinand
de Lesseps.

Mr.. a. J. Upton, Of Carter, is the
Senter candidate for State Superin-
tendent of Public Instruction, and
will receive the support of all who
vote for SENTER for Governor. As to
his qualifications we have no infOrma-

opponent Of the Radical Mcdowell,

that account he is worthy all that can
be done for him by those who are in
favor OfSENTER and the e~nfranchise-

consannulneous Marriages.

To eIucidate the truth Of the general
thesis that eonsanguineOus marriages
produce disease and idiOcy in the off
Spring, NJ. Noisin has made some
very minute researches in the COM
mune of Pratz, a little place at the
mouth of the Loire, which cOntainsa
population of three thousand three
hundred people, exclusively occupied
in the cultivation of salt marshes.
Hardly any outsiders are ever drawn
to this place, and the marriages take
place by special d~ispensation, even
within the degrees of cOnsanguinity
forbidden by the Church. NJ. EOisin
infinitely Investigated the circum-
stances of forty families resulting nom
such marriages, and has prepared
tables to show that neither vices OF
conformation, Insanity, idiOcy, cretI-
nism, deaf-muteness, epilepsy, abb
nism, nor ~pigmentary retlnltlsr
existed among any of these families.
He concludes, from these and Other
facts. that the dangers Of cOnsanguInC
marriages result from an intensitlca-
ton of any morbid hereditary tenden-
cies that may exist in each parent.
while if each be perfectly healthy, the
fact of cOnsanguinity counts for moth

Champagne Manufacture in California.

stock bottled, which was yer ten

was lost in these different experiments
over $685. 00. Not until two years

St. Peter, who is said to have visited
the Black Sea shores, and first
preached the Gospel there, was one
day travelling Though the Mingrelian
forest. The Saint was on foot; the
heat was great, and the road longi he
threw off his hat and shoes, and, lying
down under the shade of spreading
beech tree, fell fast aleep. Before long
two natives, Mingrelian and lmerI-
tian, rode by. They observed the
sleeping Saint, and the first idea
which suggested itself to their prOfane
minds was to see what they could get
out Of him, He had no silver belt,
not even a dagger, but the discarded
hat and shoes offered an GbyiQus booty.
The Mingrelian secured the hat, the
Imeritian the shoes. and the pair hur-
ried of. Some time afterwards st.
Peter awoke, and discovered the rob-
berry of which he had been the victim.
Finding his property irretrieydbly
lost he had recourse to the natural
consolation of cursing the thieves,
which he did in the following form:
"May the posterity of him who has
taken my shoes go forever barefoot.
Nav no son Of the man who has got
my hat ever wear n on his head! "
From that time no Imeritian peasant
has ever had n pair of shoes on his
feet, 20 Mingrelian a sufficient cover
inc for his head

Some of the officials have the Pqsts

Charles Wexford, lin his last letter from
London to the Book Buyer of this
city,, in giving an account of the re-
markable announcement made by Sir
Henry RaWlinSOu, before the Royal
Asiatic Society, 1t IS not merely that
this eminent Oriental scholar claims
to have discovered the original records
from which the Book of Genesis was
composed, but he illustrates his posi-
ton by details of the most striking
kind. He hiISeif said: 4" The pro-
gress now reached in the collection
and arrangement of the Nineveh in
scribed fragments, made it beyond a
doubt that they would be able to de
rive the whole Of the history given in
the Book Of Genesis, from the time of
Abraham from the original dneU-
ments; and it was not too much to
expect that almost the same facts and
descriptions would be found in the
BabylOnian documents as in the Bible.
He hoped very soon to have ready a
paper ON the Garden of Eden, para
disel, in which he would show that
was the natural name of Babylon.
The rivers bore the very same names,
and the BabylOnian documents gave
an exact geographical account of the

Since the fall Of Cardinal WOlsey, it

ruin was remedies. One day a die

New Submarine Drill.

A new submarine drill has been in
vented in New York. 1t viii drill
siXty-three holes at once, and VIII, It
is claimed, remove One hundred and
fifty feet OF rock at each blast. The
proposed plan is briefly to construct a
double-end propeller, with an open
space for tWO-thirds of her length and
about half her BREADTH, Over which
the framework foT holding the drills Is
erected, the boat is steamed oyer the
spot where the operations are 10 be
conducted and mOOred with four an
chors. two at each end. Eight heavy
vertical supports, or legs, four on each
side, are then lowered until theXtOueh
the bottom. a framework IS then let
down, sliding on these supports, and
keeping each in its proper position;
then, by means Of very ingenious ma
chineFy, the boat, with its contents, IS
lifted entirely Out Of the water and
rests in the air on these eight legs, or
stills. Thus the tide, which has been
the serious objection to all submarine
operations, is rendered %innacuOus, and
the drilling can 90 on with as much
steadiness as If on the land The
framework in the center of the boat
supports sixty-three drills, all running
at the ann time with the regularity
of clock work. Any number of these
can be disconnected without stopping
the machinery or interfering with the
movements of the Others.

THE VICTIMS OF MADHOUSES-A DE-
MAND FOR INQUIRY.
From the N. Y. Times

MAND FOR INQUIRY.
From the ~ Y. Times.
There must be some means adopted, with
all possible promptitude for inquiring into
the management of our lunatic asylums, and
the agencies by which persons are there in
carcerated.
Within the past year a very considerable
number of cases have come to light in this
city and vicinity, in which perfectly sane in
dividuals had been confined, under false pre-
texts, in these asylums. The latest of such
cases, which is at this time undergoing inves-
tigation, gives a new interest to the subject.
One of our criminal lawyers received some
days ago letter from an inmate of Bloom
ingdale Asylum, declaring that he had been
sent there by his relations on false charges,
and asking that measures be taken for his
release. On going to the asylum the lawyer
was denied the opportunity of an interview
with his correspondent, but being convinced
by inquiries elsewhere that the victim was
wrongly confined, he obtained awrit of habeas
corpus, which was returnable to-day. On
Monday, however, the alleged lunatic made
his appearance at the lawyers Office, saying
that he had been dismissed from the institu-
ton; but the lawyer, convinced that the dis
charge was given merely as a means by which
the making OF return to the writ might be
avoided, directed the man to 60 back to the
asylum, IN order that the case might be
brought before the Court at the proper sea-
son, We now trust it will be thoroughly in
vestigated
If the circumstance were without prece-
dent, we should be less earnest in directing
attention to the subject 1t is but a few
months since the case of Commodore Meade,
who was incarcerated in this same asylum,
