The past week has been character
lied BY one Of the hloodiest riots ever
known IN New York, The trouble had
It's origin 10 the ancient fcud existing
between the 0rangemen or Protestant
Irish and the Catholic Irish. The
former had expressed a determination
70 have public parade on the 18th, the
anniversary Of the battle Of the Boyne
when William. Prince Of Orange aud
the Protestant power gained a final as.
tendency over the Catholics in Great
Britain. The Hibernians and other
Irish organizations threatened to
mob them If they attempted TO carry
out their designs.
Matters looked so threatening on the
day before the contemplated parade
that Superintendent Kelso, by the ad.
vice o. the city officials, issued an or
der forbiddiug the parade Of the
Orangemen. This seemed to be un.
just AMI sayorcd so strongly Of being
ruled By the mob that Gov. Hoffman
couutormanded the order and not only
allowed the 0rAngemcn to parade but
offered them all the assistance in his
power
Preparations were accordingly made

10 ne Editor Of DE Manchester Journal;
Sir In the early spring l talked

Everybody talks the matter over with
his wife in the early spring, if he has a
wife, if not he goes where he pleases
when he gets ready. After numerous
pros and cons and frequent thumbing
of Summer Resorts" we finally con-
cluded that from the exalted descrip-
ton the Equinox House, Manchester,
would just suit, and that opinion was
strongly confirmed in my mind after
had consulted a friend who was there
last Summer aud in whose iudg-
mcnt regarding good living have the
most unbounded confidence, especially
when broiled chickens are in season.

how many houses of the lowly would be
furnished with this comfort, because it
could be made TO come within the
means of the great majority. The pipes
could be of glazed earthenware, and the
stove of terra Gotta. In fact, all stoves of
rooms might be cheaply constructed in
this latter and present the advantage
Of lighter and pleasanter color, be-
sides retaining heat so much longer than
sheet iron. Should the misfortune of %
crack occur, it would be much easier to
mend this earthenwars work than to
remedy the same in an iron stove and
the chances of such an occurrence are
as likely in the one material as in the
other.
As to the question of expansion Of
material under the influence of fire, it
must become subject of trial and con-
trivance on the part of the worker who
would seek to make fortune as well as
to acquire grateful place in the minds
of millions he would benefit.

A Prussian Officers Experience Of
Captivity.

A Prussian officer, who was captured
before Paris early in December, and ex-
changed after three days captivity, has
given an account of his treatment and
experience in Berlin paper. 1t must,
however, says the London Times, be re-
ceived with some caution. He was first
taken before the commandment Of St.
Denis, Admiral la Rouciere, who pro-
vided him with an elegant civilian cos
tune, invited him to a sumptuous din
ner, placed a carriage and a commits
sionaire at his disposal, and, on his pro-
mise not to quit Paris, allowed to 90 at
large. He was afterwards presented to
Gen. Schmitz, the head of Gen. Trochu's
staff, who received him very courteous
ly and conducted him to Gen. Trochu,
who also offered him capital dinner.
In the course Of conversation the Gen
eral asked why the German staff gave
no intimation of the commencement of
the bombardment, to which the officer
replied that, as a soldier, he was wont
simply to obey orders, and did not know
the intentions of his superiors. Gen.
Trochu rejoined, rather excitedly, that
he was anxious for the beginning of the
bombardment, as the German guns
could only lombard the quarters chiefly
inhabited by the mob, who were the
greatest incumbrance to him IN his un-
dertakings. He should be glad in that
way to lose couple of hundred thou
sand of these canoiUe. He also stated
that he was accurately acquainted with
the hostile positions at all points, and
was convinced that he could silence the
German guns by the French batteries.
He went into details as to the construc-
ton of the former, and expressed an
opinion that their range was less than
that of the French field artillery. The
officer saw various herds of cattle round
Paris, and in restaurant where he
breakfasted, and had beefsteak, vegeta-
bles and wine for three francs, there
was much activity, and vegetables were
offered on low terms in the markets.

What Becomes of Dead Horse.

The Scientific American recently con-
tanned an article on the uses to which
dead horses can be applied, in the
course of which it is remarked that the
animal must be remarkably good one
if he is worth as much when alive as he
is to the retorts and kettles of the
chemist. AS soon as the horse is dead,
his blood is sought by the manufacturers
of albumen, and by sugar reiners, and
the burners of lampblack. Not drop
is allowed to 60 to waste.
The name and tail are wanted for
hair-cloth, sleeves, bow-strings, and
brushes. The skin is converted into

obtained from it. Some of the choice

The Nameless Dead.
BY TOM HOOD.

BY TOM HOOD.
Why do you wall, Wind? Why do you sigh, o
Isit remorse for ships gone down. with the pitt
less shore on the leeY
Moan, moan, moan
In the desolate night and alone
All, what is the tale
You would fain unveil
In your wild. unweird cries TO meY
A CLEAN ofwhite on the shore tits not the white
Nor wandering sea-birds glimmering wing, for
ut night no birds roam.
IT'S one Of the drowned-drowned
Ofthe hapless homeward bound.
Last night, in the dark,
There persh'd a bark
On the bar: and twas bound for home
A woman's cold. white corpse-a woman so
young and fair
See, the cruel storm has entwind with the weeds
the wealth Of her welterinpg hair;
And the little. the little hand.
Lies listless and limp on the sand.
They had bound her fast
To wreck of mast;
But the wild waves would not spare!
Look, how they bound and leap-cast themselves
c.-:.; . far Ger the shore.
II Oh once more
Or is II remorse or dread.
Or longing to bury the dead,
That makes the surge
On the ocean verge
SO necessarily howl and roar?
Where do they list for her step? where do they
look for her face?
Where are they waiting to see her once more in
the old family place?
Dead. dead, dead
In vain will their tears be shed
For not one of them all,
Alas, will fall
On that bosoms marble gracei
Why do yon sigh, Sea? Why do you wall, o
Wind?
Why do you murmur, in mournful tune, like
things with human mind?
Wall, wall, wall,
Articuate ocean and gale
For the loveliness rare,
So pallid and fair,
You slew in your fury blind
Let US bear her away to a grave in the church
yards calm, green breast,
Where the sound of the wind and waves in strife
may never her peace modest.
Though we cannot carve her name.
She will slumber all the same;
And the wild-rose bloom
Shall cover her tomb.
And she shall have perfect rest!
