in my family for some time past MY little daughter
had been suffering from severe whooping cough for
several weeks, and was much broken ot rest at
night that-by excessive coughing and loss of sleep
her constitution and general health seemed to be
giving away. Various remedies or palliatives were
recommended by intimate neighbors, but nothing
was tried until our attention called by physi-

procured and commenced using at once-wfth an ef-

Grant was an important point for his future
career, and he seems to have made all the CAPT
tai possible out of that. 1t was through this
that he impressed Fisk and Gould with
the idea Of his Importance and usefulness In
the gold ring conspiracy, and these spectators
were eager enough to connect him with their
scheme. Even after the whole party found
they could do nothing with the President to
aid them and dare not even approach him for
such an object, they still endeavored to make
q confidence operation on the strength simply
of Corbin's marriage relationship with General
Grant. In fact, it appears to have been on the
part of Corbin confidence game all through
But they all overreached themselves AS was
said we continue to get more and more light
on this gigantic gold operation, and we are not
without hope that in time the whole history of
it will be made known.

The Sword of ST. Peter.

Pope Plus TX. does not appear as yet-the
Ecumenical Council not having opened in
session-inclined to abate in the slightest
degree his claim to rank as the successor of st.
Peter. Indeed his Holiness seizes on every
opportunity for reasserting it by repeating or
reproducing before the world the leading
incidents of the life of the "Prince Of the
exception of his poverty in cash, clothing and
carpets. The Pope holds the 'keys," Nfeeds
the sheep and lambs" but yet wears a triple
tiara shining with jewels instead of the hat
of Peter, if he had even hat. Pho Mono
has sometimes unsheathed the sword also,
and ordered its use on divers occasions, and
that, too, without having been in the slightest
degree prompt to heal the wounds which it
may have inflicted on the ears or otherwise of
the democrats OF Italy. It appears that the
Pope has now determined to keep on s'that
line" just so long as he possibly can, for
we are told by telegraph from Rome that
ninety-six North American recruits for the
Papal army arrived in the Eternal City from
Canada last Thursday afternoon. This fact
realizes to great extent the anticipations
which we ventured to indulge in lately, to the
effect that the New Dominion is likely to loom
into very great territorial importance, on
account of Prince Arthur, the Mohawks, it's
calls ''to arms" and now the running off Of it's
soldiery just in the face of the Irish legons and
Sunburst flag from New York, to the shelter Of
the sanctuary, and for duty, with its bishops,
before the altar in Rome. These Canadians
are likely to prove very useful to the Pope,
too for as they are, every one Of them,
deeply read in the American fisheries question
and its diplomatic entanglements, they will be
just the men to handle the net of the fisher
man and haul in an abundant stake" to the
Church from this side the Atlantic during the
approaching preatical assemblage. Let the
Papal military commissions of the Canadians
be attested with the seal forthwith.

The Cardiff Gianr-A Stupendous Hoax.
We publish elsewhere to-day a complete
exposure of hoax which surpasses in magni-
tude the moon hoax of Locke and Poes story
of Hans Phaal. 1t is unnecessary to recapltli-
late here the details which our Syracuse cor
respondent presents in proof of deeply laid
scheme to make money out of the pretended
discovery of "a petrified giant at Cardiff
The geological nature of the soil in which this
huge statue was found would disprove the
character of antiquity claimed for it, even If it
were not shown to have been the work OF
crazy Canadian who dreamed of rivalling
Michael Angelo. 1t is probable that the miss
ing links in the evidence in favor of our cor
respondents narrative will ere long be sup
piled, and the perpetrators of this attempted
fraud will be fully exposed.
Meanwhile the whole case adds another to
the curious and numerous illustrations of the
fact that Western New York is, for some unac-
countable reason, permanent hotbed for the
growth Of all sorts of humbugs. It was in
this burnt district, as it has been designated,
that anti masonry had it's birth and the Morgan
mystery originated. Here Joe Smith dug up
the miraculous tablets which form the Book
of Mormon, and planted the germ of future
troubles at Nauvoo and of the strange society
which now peoples Salt Lake City and Utah.
Here innumerable communities of comeouters,
free lovers and followers of every distorted
shape of religious belief and unbelief have
fourished. Here John Brown hailed from
when he set forth on his crusade against the
peculiar institution, and initiated the war
which has so tremendously affected the desti-
MES of this nation. In short, Western New
York is so extraordinary as the source Of
some Of the widest decisions and vagaries
and enthusiasms that have swept over the
national mind that it richly deserves the atten-
ton which it claims from philosophical students
of American history.

The Churches-Futher Hyacinthe s'Undcr tho
Pupit.0

Pulpit"
Our religious report, detailing the progress
which was made yesterday by the pastors and
clergy of the different churches for the cure Of
souls by the conversion of sinners and the
confirming of the cody in the Word, is Of
very consoling character. The cardinal
essentials of faith, hope and charity were
inculcated from many pulpits and the altar.
according to the ancient system of routine and
the modern plans suggested by differentiation
of idea and Interpretation, and permitted by q
freedom of conscience guaranteed by a State
constitution of universal tolerance. The con-
gregations were numerous, fashionable,
dressed according to the --latest STYLE" and,
in the Judgment of our reporters, very
devout. The preachers were, it is almost
needless to say, eloquent and impressive, and,
it is to be hoped, effective accordingly.
Father Hyaointhe, himself the embodiment Of
an embryo religious revolution and it may be
the regenerated centre of an entirely new
system of creed and discipline, attended at mass
in the French church in Twenty-third street in
the morning, and worshpped subsequently in
Plymouth church, Brooklyn, ''sitting UNDER
the ministration of the Rev. Henry Ward
Beecher, and thus, as it were, plunging at
once, as was the fashion in pagan Rome,
In medals res-from the sombre cell and
the matin Of Father Domenec and "Stations
of the Cross" here, to the full light,
even glare, of platform which permits
''plenty of room" for Evolutionary emphasis in
the able enforcement of an unrestricted text
commentary. In st. Stephens Catholic
church, in this city, the earnest and able
pastor, Rev. DR.. McGlynn, delivered sermon
on the authority of the Church of Rome and
the power and force of the prelates assembled
in general council apd the DEGREES of the
corenal. DR.. McGlynn referred incidentally to
disobedient, or what the politicians would call
''unreconstructed, priests or monks delivering
a few sentences Of warning or admonition,
as they were accepted by his hearers, to the
Pere Hyacinthe in front Of that magnificent
suffering for the early faith It is worthy Of
remark in speaking of Father Hyacinthe and,
by way Of illustration, of the checks and bal
ances of Christianity, that Prince Napoleon
Bonaparte and the Princess Clothilde, his wife,
daughter the King Of Italy, who have been edi-
fed so frequently by Pere Hyacnthe in N6tre
Dame, Paris were devout daily attendants in
DR.. McGlynn's church during their visit to
this country, the Princess being present at the
earliest mass every morning. We live, how
ever, in an era of progress. So the barefooted
monk has stepped ahead of the white cross Of
Savoy. He now enjoys the first requisite Of
new Apostleship, poverty; for we are in
formed by the Atlantic cable that he has been
''dispossessed of all his charges" for not
having returned to his monastery in Paris
within ten days, as summoned by his superior.
So be it.
