A k1ND-HEARTED CANNiBAL.--Mark

Mr.. Whitney, its able editor and proprie-
tor sixteen years, was Just retiring from
business, having sold out TO younger men.
| take this opportunity of thanking the
disappearing veteran for courtesies done
and Information afforded me in by-gone
days. Mr.. Whitney is one of the fairest-
minded and best-hearted cannibals l ever
knew, if do say it myself. There is not a
stain upon his name, and never has been.
And he is the best judge of human
being I ever saw 60 through market.

palm off part of an old person on him for
the fragment of a youth, but [ never saw
it succeed. All, no there was no decelvlnS

tried the family before. I remember his

not think of Whitney without my mouth

people IN those halcyon days, which shall

on the fat of the land. And will say this
for Henry Whitney-he never thought less
of his friend after examining into him, and
he was always sorry when his enemy was
gone.

STRAsBoURG CATHEDRAL.-Stran gers are
naturally much more anxious about the
cathedral than about anything else-even
the ruin Of hundreds of houses and to the
Minister are their first steps directed. And
they are right, for shops and dwelling
houses can be readily rebuilt, but what liv-
ing man could bring back the glories of such
an edifce as this masterpiece of Edwin Won
Steinbaek! L was right glad to find that
the injuries sustained, though considerable,
are not such as cannot be repaired. The ca
thedral has suffered most at the northwest
ern corner ofthe nave. Outside, several 0fthe
small, slender columns, and much Of the SUI
per-delicate tracery that makes the building
look, TO use WhewelPs words, rs though
it were enclosed in q case of woven stone,
are knocked away, while in the window
nearest to the wonderful ''rose" Of the
western front there is terribly ugly rent.
Tie glorious painted glass filling every
window Of the clerestory, as we'll as the
larger windows OF the nave, betrays no end
of holes, caused probably by small splinters
which have happily been powerless against
stone.> Some of the organ pipes have been
broken. and the gaudily-decorated case is
defaced. The absurdly celebrated clock-a
mere elaborate mechanical toy, which ex-
cites the establishment Of many who fail to
appreciate the lovely proportions Of the
buildings intact. The injury done to the
most conspicuous object in the city, indeed,
is very much less than could reasonably be
expected and it is manifest that the Ger
mans must have taken immense pains to
avoid the historical edifce, the glory of
city which they intended to make their
own.-Foreign Letter.

SrIRITUALISY EXPoSED.-A small, but i'll
tclliSent audience of gentlemen, among
Whom'wcrc 4 number OF prominent spirit
uaIlstS OF this city, assembled ut Raine's
Hall last evening, upon the invitation OF
DIR. l.. Y. Wright, to witness that gentle

phenomena, which, it is claimed by the
Davenport Brothers, Read, Emerson, and
others, assist them in the performance OF
their wonderful teats at their sleisht-of-
hand performances. The exhibition last
night was quite interesting, and consisted
OF thorough exposition OF the feats al
luded TO, convincing some OF the most
skcptical among the audience of the talsity
Of the idea with which they had been i'm
pressed by repeated visits to seances OF
noted spiritualists.
The celebrated ring trick, which has at
tracted such general attention, WAS thor
oughlv exposed. The operators hands
were securely tied, the lights lowered, and
IRON bands instantly appeared on his arms.
The lights were then turned on, and the
feat again performed, showing the decep-
ton practiced. DR.. Wright, who, it is
stated, was until recently a confirmed be-
never III spiritualism, has given private
performances in other cities, which have
been attended by very critical audiences,
all OF whom were completely convinced that
The /" astonishing manifestations F" claimed

Gen. Butler ON Public Affairs.

BosToN, Nov. 2S.-Gen. Butler, in
speech at Boston, said that the Republican
party. being an accomplished party, was
split on side issues. The Democratic party
is equally divided. England, he thinks,
should be brought to an immediate ac-
count but it would be eowardly to press
her while involved in war. He blames the
Democratic party for defeating. Valua-
bic acquisitions in the West Indies, not.
withstanding its time-honored desire Tor
the acquisition Of Cuba. He suggests the
non-interruption of England, as the best
means Of bringing her to terms. The rep
aration which she should have made to us
for the Alabama claims was the surrender
of her naval stations Jamaica and Bermuda.
he didn't ask for Canada, but was willing
to let the people there settle the matter by
vote. Should war be made with England
it should be made on the ocean. 1t Wonld
| not be SO expensive, and would give us
Canada; and II he spoke as partisan J. ne
would say that 1t would perpetuate the
Republican party for more than three gem

remarkable time of 5:29H, making the first
mile in 2:i1, and the second mile, with three
bad breaks, in 2:4SA. In all his breaks he

sensation in the quiet town of Newton, N.
