A TERRIBLE CRIME IN SoUTHEkN
ILL1No1s.-From the officers of the
Armada we learn some particulars of i
terrible murder committed in Mas |
sac County, Illinois, opposite Padu
cab. On Saturday morning two men
stopped at the house of Mr.. Nc
Cormick and asked for breakfast,
which was furnished While there
they obtained from Mccormick the
information that he had eonsidera-
ole sum of money about the house
About dark Sunday evening the TIVE
men returned and were met at the
door by Mccormick, who had been
attracted by the barking Of his dog.
As they approached him they ex-
claimed, Now, Cd d-n you,
we have got you" and immediately
commenced shooting at him. Me-
Cormick, who had lost an arm, re-
ceived the first shot. IN his manned
shoulder, and at once returned the
shot and continued to fire until he
had emptied four chambe-s Of his
revolver, receiving in the meantime,
another shot Ia the other shoulder.
One Of the men. reiterated through a
cornfeld in front of the house and
the other man rushed through the
house and escaped by the back way
Mccormick rushed through the house
and fred one shot at the retreating
villain. On retiring into the house
he discovered that his wife, who had
s been sick for some time, had been
shot through the body and killed

THE SdNGEHFEST

The festival of German Singing Societies
which is making Baltimore merry and mcO-
diOus, gives an excellent illustration of the
capacity of our adopted fcllow-citizens for
innocent enjoyment, and we should be glad
if native-born Americans could take
little inspiration from it. Here are some
thousands of people from all the North Eastern,
or rather the Middle States who make of the
periodical contests Of proficiency between rival
chorus societies, festivals hardly less joyous aud
hardly less important than the old tournaments
of the Jongleurs aud Minnesngers. Fora week
they cast aside the cares of business and the
worry of money getting, and give themselves
up TO snch simple pleasures rs the chanting of
fine songs the parading of gay professions
and the cultivation of social intercourse. Per-
haps the beer-cup foams too often; but it is
characteristic Of the German pleasure seeker
that he rarely goes for days outing
unaccOmpanied by his wife and children, and
so the widest Of his junketngs are more or less
restrained by domestic influences. At any rate,
where music is the staple of the feast, decorum
cannot be altogether forgotten.
We are always glad to welcome these peri
odical gatherings, and wish there were more
of them. The recent experiment in Boston,
there is some reason to hope, may result in
the development among Americans of better
talent for having good time than they have
ever before displayed, and enable us to wit
ness Singing Festivals which shall be really ma
tonal in their character, and unite all our
people in general celebration. In Boston,
perhaps, such occasions are rather too solemn;
but that is fault which we can easily cor
rect. Already the good seed which the Jubi-
lee and the Germans have both sown seems to
be taking root. Boston purposes to perpetuate
the grand chorus by uniting it in great per-
manent national organization which may serve
as the parent of regular monthly, annual, and
centennial Jubees all over the Western lem.

That the Catholics in the Lords refused
concurrent endowment was probably one of
the most determinate of Mr.. Gladstone's
reasons for declaring that his Government
would yield to none of the Lords amend
ment which impaired the principle of general
abandonment. The Times has been the fore
most advocate Of n compromise on the basis
OF n concurrent endowment of Catholics
Prcsbytcrians. and Episcopalians but the
manly stand taken by Mr.. Gladstone will be
a relief to all parties. The Catholic Lords
have acted with timely shrewdness in not
acknowledging by acceptance the Episcopal
right to endowments which, in important
cases, were the original, and, in their opinion.
inalienable property of the Catholic Church.
The Lords have received their proper rebuke,
and the firm act OF the British Ministry is a
certain sign that resistance on their part
will be useless.

of high priests who have employed the Church

wisdom may be to wait rather thah

sions of the Syllabus and the En-
cyclical letters, grevous and ominous as
seem the recent lamentations of the Pope,
the world cannot make sure OF the
intentions of the Vatican. The Gcumenical
Council may astonish the world by its Chris
tian acceptance of a situation not to be
controlled, or it may attempt some
thing more; but the oracle at Rome
has not whispered, and all the faithful are
dumb We know that the Powers of Germany,
and even Catholic Italy and Spain, view with
suspicion the possible tenets of the forthcom-
ing Council; but the Church, nevertheless, pre-
serves its mighty silence, ignorant, III some
degree, of its own intent.

The London Times observes that The
American people ought to be in a friendly
spirit after this Monster Peace Festival.
"Such demonstration in favor of Peace,
such a prodigious condemnation of strife,
Ought TO have a softening effect on the most
strenuous asserter of the Alabama claims"
So far as the Alabama claims" are concerned,
we fear that the Peace Festival exerted quite
m opposite influence; for what with the Hail
Columbia style of the music, and the thorough
going Yankee Doodleism of the occasion, re-
membrane of "the Alabama claims didn't
have, at the time at least, "a sOfteung effect"
at all. What we want, as The Times should
know, is the money which belongs to us. Cash
or its equivalent only will have "a softening

We are inclined to think that Secretary
Boutwell, is right in deciding that Mrs. Dr.
Mary Walker can do better Ontside the
Treasury Department than in it; and that his
peremptory refusal of an appointment for her
is wise. Mrs. Walker has certainly displayed
energy enough in the disagreeable pursuit of
Office in Washington TO have earned "a hand
some living by her profession or in any other
walk of industry open to her. Her curl
GUS career at Washington over which,
after all, we are quite as much inclined
to grieve as to be merry-might point several
curious morals but it is enough to suggest the
fresh emphasis it gives TO the old lesson that
begging Office is the poorest business on the
face Of the earth.

Every day seems to reveal some new excel
lence of the late Prince Albert He attempted
many and widely various tasks, and was always
at least respectfully successful. lie was a
model farmer, good artist, and fair musician.
About dozen songs written and set by the
Prince and his brother Ernest. and published
over twenty years ago, are now attracting at
tention in England, and are praised for their
"melodious stream of rich chord" their fancy
and their Imagination. Very few princes, ex-
cept those of Germany, have a chance to show
what they can do besides eating, drinking,
gambling, mistress keeping and the other usual
accomplishments of royalty. Perhaps these
high-born gentlemen are not after all, the
fools which the world is apt to think them to
be. Poor fellows! They don't all have Prince
Alberts chance! Perhaps even the late Queen
of Spain can do something!
