The King Of France, with forty thousand men,
Marched up the hill and then marched down again.
But this was nothing to General O'Neill's
last invasion Of Canada. he likewise marched
up the hill; but he got into Hght, and while
the battle was going on he came down on tho
side Of the hill, and, entering house, per-
haps for some rsfreshment, was claimed by
the United States Marshal for the District OF
Vermont as his prisoner, the Marshal and his
deputy being on the ground and on the lookout
for an overt act against our neutrality laws.
General George r. Foster Is the name or the
Marshal. s.Sr, I shall resist your arrest.
said General O'Neill. cit will be useless,
sir" said General Foster. ''But, sir, ! am
armed, /" said O'Nell. $50 am ]" said Foster.
"John, open that carriage door. Now, Mr.
ONeill ('Mr. O'Neilp is good), get into that
carriage or will put you in. am going to
take you to st. Albans right through the midst
Of your men, and if you make the slightest
outcry will shoot you dead" 'Mr. O'Neilr'
saw that ''the game was up" and 30 he sur
rendered, obeyed the orders Of bis superior
officer, and was carried of, his unexpected
adventures at the expense Of the United States
eliminating in Burlington jail.
Now, Of oil the practical jokes ever played
upon the commander of an army in the crisis
Of battle, this joke upon ONeiil is the fun
niest. That United States Marshal Foster is
not only trump, but he is wag; he has not
only the GOODNESS, tact and courage OF first
rate officer and soldier, but he has also a vein
of wit and humor that would make him an
excellent comedian. The capture and abduc-
ton Of s'Mr. O'Neilr' from his army in the
crisis Of its first battle, beats any curious
thing produced in military science by Fox, Of
the Olympic, or the niger minstrels. In
point of fun it beats the surprise and flight Of
Jack Falstaff from his highway plunder. This
remarkable capture, however, Of the Fenian
General carries with it good moral, and it is
this: when in command of an army engaged
in battle on hostile frontier enter no house
for rest or Refreshments without first ascertain.

Congress = Ths Naturalization Bill = The
Northern racinc Railrsad JOB.
Mr.. Conkling. from the Judiciary Commit
tee, yesterday reported In the Senate substi-
tute for tho bill regulating and making uniform
the system Of naturalization. The proposition
Is good one 90 far as It does away with the
many opportunities for fraudulent naturaliza-
tion papers, and consequently fraudulent votes,
but Mr.. Conkling's bill goes almost so far as
to deserve the title rather of "a bill to dis
courage naturalization. II takes the power
of naturalization out Of the hands Of the State
courts and puts 1t In the hands Of the United
States judicial authorities, where it plainly
enough belongs of right, and IL requires that
six months shall intervene after naturalization
before the person naturalized may vote, which
is good blow against the prevailing system
Of making citizens Of all the foreigners in the
country just the day before election. But,
except in large cities, whore the United States
courts are convenient, 1t viii have the effect
to discourage emigrants from taking out their
papers. In the country United States courts
are few and far between, and the foreigners
will find these provisions so many difficulties
thrown in their way. The Legislative Appro-
priation bill was further discussed and
amended.
The Northern Pacific Railroad resolution
was passed in the House yesterday, all the
amendments that bade fair to divest the
measure of some Of its most glaring frauds
being rejected. 1t has been fought for per-
sistently by its friends in the halls and in the
lobhies, and, as 1t gives away almost incom-
putable acres Of valuable land to private par
ties for no conceivable return, it is but justice
to the common sense and shrewdness Of its
adherents in the House to say that 1t was
bought through. No Congre who is sup
posed to have the ability necessary to repre-
sent even constituency of Digger Indians
could fail to see that the whole job was big
scheme to grab land from the government
and give it to the schemers When the bill
Objectionable than 1t is now, and It was vir-
tually defeated by the virtuous members.
Since then, however. "change" Of some sort
has come DER the spirit Of their schemes, and
the same BILL made more obnoxious, has
passed. It's an unsatisfactory way to account
for It.; but even Congressman are s'but men,
as Bull Frog says in the 'Rent Day." and the
cadetship investigation and the Northern
Pacific Railroad job are proofs Of it. The bills
to enforce the fifteenth amendment and to re-
viye the shipping interests were further dis
cussed, and il was agreed to take vote on
the latter to-day.

A RBvoLrTroN IN CosTA RIcA.--Our cor
respondence from Central America, published
elsewhere this morning, gives the details Of a
successful revolution in Costa Rica. Tho
whole affair was somewhat grotesquc in its
character Probably in imitation of the
famous trick played by the Greeks upon the
Trojans nine rcvolutlonists hid themselves in
carts containing grass, and which were driven
into the barracks at San Jose. At signal they
emerged from their place Of concealment, shot
down all who opposed them, took possession,
and soon after arrested President Jimenez. A
new government was then installed, headed by
DR.. Bruno Carranza, who will retain power
until some other revolutionist deposes him. 1t
is gratifying to know that no "tyrants' were
shot. Jinenez and all the prisoners were set
at liberty, and at last accounts everything was
| going on well.

The suItan'. Address from tho Throne.


Abdul Aziz, the reigning Sultan Of Turkey,
or, as he is variously styled, the ''Grand
Turk" the ssGrand Signor" and 'the Com
mander Of the Faithful, is rapidly conforming
himself to modern usages and Western ways.
For some years past he has been in tho habit
Of assembling his Ministry in the palace
of the Sublime Porte, which forms a part
of his imperial residence Of the seraglio,
and gives official designation to the
empire in all public documents, and has
| addressed the council thus convoked in regu-
lar speech from the throne, after the style Of
the Western constitutional monarchs. This
year he has been peculiarly emphatic in express
ing his sympathy with modern progress and ia
enjoining upon hiz Cabinet and all the func-
tionaries Of his dominion the steady pursuit Of
reform-agricultural, industrial and judicial.
He comes out most decidedly for internal
improvements railroads, river navigation,
harbor facilities, better transportation, &c.
and fervently returns thanks to the Most High
for the progress already attained.
| We publish this address in full in another
column, as we have translated it from the
original text specially transmitted to the
HERALD. 1t is highly interesting, in view OF
its source and the remarkable circumstances
under which II has been pronounced. The
mightiest potentata of the East has thus
defintlyely arrayed himself on the side ol
modern ideas, and the light of progress, in
completing it's circuit of the world, at last il

Tho rs,u,nua CT parien Exploration.

Willie the news from the Gulf of San Bias,
which we publish this morning, does not in
form us of the discovery Of a practicable ronte
for ship canal across the Isthmus of Darien,
it is, on the whole, favorable. Notwithstand-
ing the continuous rains, the work Of exploring
and surveying had gone on without intermis-
sion, although the progress Of the expedition
was much impeded by The unfavorable weather.
| Twelve miles inland, over q summit level Of
not exceeding one hundred and twelve feet,
had been examined, the principal route lying
along the course OF the Mandinga river. Ex-
! plorations had also been made OF the Mic alagua
| river, and party under Lieutenant Hitchcock
was exploring the Samgandi, which is the left
| forl. of the Mandinga, and which, with the
NicaIagua, flows in the direction OF the San
| Jose. Tais latter stream is tributary Of the
Mamoni, which flows into the Bayamo on the
! Pacific side. Ii now remains to be discovered
how high the source Of tho San jose Is, to de-
! eide upoa the practicability Of route for al
ineroceanic canal between San Bias and
| Chepo. Already the first spurs of the moun.
tains had been encountered, but they do no
indicate that there is no low summit level along
the entire route. Further explorations which
have doubtless been made by this time, wer'
regarded as necessary before final decision
could be arrived at. Meanwhile it is satsfac
tory to know that the officers and men of tn
expedition have been working energeticall
and faithfully, and that, whether they discove
practicable route or not, the thorough sur
vey they have made of the isthmus will b.
valuable TO science.

TELEGRAPH CABLES TO CENTRAL AND South

that the West India and Panama Telegraph
Company were pushing forward the work of

Sir Charles Bright was Of the opinion that by

would be in teleSraphic communication with
the United States and Europe. Some doubts
appeared to exist as to tho laying of the cable
between Kingston and Aspinwall, because of

net receipts of telegraph companies working in
the republic. II was proposed to use tho line
intended for the isthmus for part Of the extern
sion from Demerara down tue east coast Of
South America to Rio Janeiro. 1t seems, how
ever, that the obnoxious law referred to has
been repealed, and when this fact is known the
