larity is increasing Last night the Stadt Theatre

once again added laurels to those he has already
won. THIS German tenor has certainly marvellous

IT has hitherto been and not the least commcndable

MINNESOTA AND WISCONSIN have been vis-
tied simultaneously by the most destructive
prairie fires probably ever known. In Mime
sofa an area of two hundred miles was swept
by the flames, scattered houses and barns and
stock being destroyed, i've lives lost, and
hundreds of families deprived Of their
homes and property. In Wisconsin the
destruction was fully as great, and the area
OF destruction was even wider. The long
drought which has prevailed in these States
had rendered the prairie grass as dry and
combustible as tinder.

The ELECTIONS IN MRxIoo-A PEACE

announces that the national parliamentary
elections terminated on the 30th ult. Juarez

Dias still advocates the threadbare Mexican
plan Of State secession and the formation Of q
new republic. This means, perhaps, Diaz
for presidency somewhere and at all baz-
ards. If Diaz is really Mexican patriot he
will lend his talents to maintain one republic
with benefit to the people before he sets up
another. He is an able soldier. Let this be
his next duty.

HoRATIo RISES TO TIE MAIN QUESTION.
In an interview with reporter yesterday at
Rochester, Mr.. Seymour said :-'This il the
very crisis in the career OF the democratic
party. The whole country Is made to ring
with the frauds of which irresponsible persons
in New York are guilty, and all the frauds
and all the corruption are saddled on the
democratic party" That's the trouble, Cover
nor. The ''Old Man of the Sea" is on the
back OF Sinbad, and how are you going to get
him ofi That Is the task before your Con-

General Grant and collector Murphy.

General Grant and Collector Murphy.
General Grant, it appears, has been de-
fining his views and his position in reference
to Collector Murphy. The General knows that
the charges raised against the Collector in
reference to certain contracts with the govern
ment during the war have been disproved,
and that Mr.. Murphy is all right; and as he
satisfactorily discharges the duties of his
present Office the President does not feel
called upon to remove him 10 consequence Of
factious or personal clamors raised against
him. This means that the Collector will not
be removed nor requested to resign, inasmuch
as General Grant desires him to continue at
his post. The opinion, then, we think, may be
safely ventured that Senator Conkling will
soon find himself very much mistaken if he
supposes that, having secured from the Col
lector all the assistance desired in the matter
of the Syracuse Convention, and having no
further use for him, he may be conveniently
removed. We dare say, indeed, that if put to
the test of choice between the hostility of
Conkling or the removal of Murphy, General
Grant will stick to his Collector. Now, il the
Senator wishes to settle this question, let him
come on. If coalition of forty-six Protest
ant clergymen could not bulge Mr.. Murphy
we think he will prove more than a match for
Senator Conkling.

Tho Iutenpsraas PrshIblsisuIsts Of Massa-
II seems TO be the fate Of ell reform con
ventions to show the fallacy Of their pro-
posed reforms by their own short
comings. The nominating convention Of the
liquor prohibition party held in Boston yester-
day was the most Incorporate assembly that we
have had to chronicle for many day. The
members were not exactly drunk on old rye or
champagne, but they were undoubtedly ine-
briated, to . degree where sodden stupor
would have been relief by the violence Of
their own temper. No habitual rioter laden
with New England rum, could have presented
so awful warning to temperance men as DR..
Fulton, the Boston divine, presented by his
riotous proceedings under the influence of un-
governable rage. 1t all came about through a
brave little woman, Mrs. Bowles, who asked
and obtained permission to read . memorial
and resolution in favor Of woman suffrage.
The moment she commenced DR.. Fulton, who
has heretofore been considered divine above
reprcach, except In such minor matter as hav-
ing denounced tho memory of Dickens in the
pulpit, and drank lager bier Id Chatham
street garden" during the unguarded moments
of anniversary" dissipation In New York
this divine Fulton commenced violent
harangue against ''this woman" taunting
her with the very inability to vote against
which she was then protesting, denouncing the
chair for thus launching her upon the Con-
vention and declaring that he would not sub
NIT to any association with the suffrage peo-
pie, ''such as the infamous Theodore Tilton
and the Woodruff -Claflin tribe of free lovers"
The Incorporate divine, in this strain, made
quite an interesting orgie out Of the Conven-
tion, and gave the boys in the gallery moro
fun, though of worse kind, than they could
have found at any Of the Bowery gardens on
Saturday night. Some of tho members Of the
Convention, who had not yet felt their liquor,
rebuked the intoxicated parson so sternly that
he, believing, probably, with the usual halluci-
nation Of befuddled brains, that nobody in the
Convention was sober except himself, threw
up bis appointment on the committees, and
during the rest Of the evening made no sign
more important or suggestive than the grunt
or snore Of exhausted humanity. The brave
Mrs. Bowles carried her point, aud, after nom-
mating a full State ticket, the Convention ad-
journed and the members, utterly unnerved by
their exciting spree, betook themselves home
ward. For Temperance Convention the
show was magnificent success as frightfnl
example, and, in furtherance of the principle
of prohibiting the sale Of liquor, it was sug-
gestive of an additional clause to the teetotal-
ers' platform prohibiting intemperance in
speech.

The KU KLUx CoURr in Raleigh, N. c.; has
adjourned, leaving thirty Ku Klux cases un-
tried. Ten of these mysterious raiders we're
sentenced yesterday, and six Ku Kluxers,
who we're convicted, we're let OF in considera-
tion Of turning States evidence. Altogether,
the record Of the term has been very satisfac-
tory. The vision of these ten comrades work.

Germau Protestantism and Infallibility.
At Darmstadt, yesterday, there was held
meeting OF Protestants, representing various
portions of the German empire. A decara-
tion was adopted setting forth
Fyst-That It is the interest OF Germany to oppose
the doctrine OF Papal infalliDility.
eighty OF the State and the liberties OF the people,
and destructive OF that freedom OF conscience whch
u the basis OF pure religion
znird-Tnas the establishment OF the "Order OF
Jesus" must be prohibited.
We are not much surprised at the news. 1t
accords with our knowledge of facts that
meetings of q similar sort have been held all
over Protestant Germany. The Protestants Of
the North, much as they love unity, are de-
termined that unity will not be purchased by
the giving up Of their Protestant principles.
It would be strange indeed If the countrymeu
aud coreligionists of Luther would swallow
infallibility and all its accompanying nonsense.
In few days we expect to hear something
of the meeting Of the "Old Catholics" at
Munich. Until we know what they have done
we are not unwilling to suspend our Judgment.
II Is important to know that North Germany
has snubbsd the bishops, that Bavaria has
snubbed the bishops, and that Austria has
done the same With the Protestants on the
watch, with the Catholics divided, aud with
the govsrpments all opposed, infallibility has
small chance in Germany. So far as Ger
many is concerned the Vatican Council has
proved failure.
