The President aud half his Cabinet, from their
famous excursion to the great railway cele-
brations in Maine, have returned to Washing
ton. The distinguished party from the East
arrived at the Fifth Avenue Hotel early on
Saturday morning, where the Presidents
family had been for some days awaiting him.
He devoted the day to drive through the
Central Park, to the reception Of host
of politicians and to an excellent dinner,
at the conclusion Of which the whole
party. including the President his family, half
the members of his Cabinet and other officials
and followers were hurried OF to tho tweuty
minutes past nine o'clock evening train Tor
Washington. Collector Murphy and numerous
others Of that wing Of the New York republi-
can camp were conspicuous among the callers
upon the President at the Fifth Avenue but
neither the benevolent face OF Mr.. Greeley nor
the towering form Of "Rufe Andrews" were
visible in the crowd. They would rather
stretch their legs under the mahogany Of
BOSS Tweed" than sit at the same table with
''Tom Murphy" Nevertheless. the sun still
rises and sets and tho tide still Gibbs and
flows, without the slightest regard for the
tribulations Of Mr.. Greeley. aao4Nsf

Tonight the long-looked-for event that has
for mouths past created such an excitement
and interest in musical and fashionable circles
will take place. Mile. Christine Nilsson makes
her first appearance In opera at the Academy
OF Music in her best r5Ie, that Of Lucia, in
Donisetti's charming opera. Her debut will
be made under the most favorable circum-
stances. Her great reputation and her
transcendent abilities, which reused to enthu-
siasm the volatile public Of Paris, rescued
from bankruptcy the management Of Her
Majesty's Opera aud set the Hub" In whirl
of ecstasy, lead us to expect more from her
than any other prima donna that has graced
the boards Of the New York Opera House for
Q decade Of years has shown. or course, the
Academy will be crowded this evening by
such On assemblage ofintelligence, beauty and
fashion as only the metropolis can set forth,
aud the entrance OF the Bride Of Lammer-
moor will be the signal for an outburst of
applause a. only can be heard In New York.
With her appears the favorite tenor Of the
American stage, Brignoli, and the new French
baritone, Barre. Miss Cary Capoul and

Tho Demand Of Spain Upon Hayd for
the Surrender af tho Hornet.
Old Spain seems determined to be the DON
Qnixote Of nations. The latest evidence Of
her bombastio belligerency-of disposition
to fight windmills-is the demand upon the
poor and weak black republic Of Hayti for the
surrender Of the steamer Hornet. According
to our telegraphic news from Port au Prince,
published yesterday, the commander OF
Spanish man-of-war lying at Port au Prince
had made this demand formally, and upon
the refusal Of the Hsytien government to
give up the Hornet the Spanish Consul
took down his consular flag and LEFT on
board war vessel for Havana. 1t is said the
Consul had gone to Havana for instructions,
though Il ID hardly to be supposed he would
have taken down his flag and ceased holding
intercourse with the Haytien government
without previous understanding with his
own government The Hornet has been
lying In the inner barbor Of Port au Prince,
undse the protection Of Hayti, since last
yk6nary, ana there does not appear to be any
-. sdsvslopmsnts affecting her status or
t1tsAbest. Il seems, therefore, that Spain
hesS some ultsrior object in view
~ ~ action taken BY her officials
\ tais lass day. The Hofnst as is we'll
known, was blockade runner for the Cuban
insnresnts, and belonged to Cuban sympathi-
ssss \ tho Unitsd Statss. She belonged to
citissas q this country, and had been regu-
larly cleared with the proper papers from
ports of tho United StatsA So satisfied was
Captain Temple, Of the Tennessee, of this
fact that he offered, when at Port au Prince,
last March, to escort her out to sea or home
under the protection OF his guns. She was
then being watched by Spanish men-of-war.
Not being in condition or prepared to leave,
she remained in the same position in the har-
Dor of Port au Prince, and has been closely
watched by Spanish war ships since. Does
Spain seek pretext to attach Haytip Or
does she want an International difficulty with
the United States7 Perhaps, however, Spain
has been made to understand that our pro-
Spanish government at Washington will not
trouble itself about the Hornet and that she
may do as she wishes with this steamer or
the Haytiens. HayH has not pleased our
administration and the St. Domingo lobby at
Washington by her hostility to the annexation
scheme, and 1t may be that this Spanish hostile
proceeding is the first step Of . mstured plan
for Furnishing the presumptuous negro re-
public. 1t will be interesting to know oil the
facts bearing upon this Hornet affair, Is It
involves an international question Of some
importance.

The European Relief Fund for Chicago.
A tabular statement Of the sums which have
been subscribed in Europe for the relief of the
sufferers by the Chicago FIRE is published in
the HERALD to-day. The exhibit embraces
the various amounts-rendered into American
gold dollars-whieh were donated to Saturday,
the 21st instant. The totals foot up six hun
dred and sixteen thousand one hundred
dollars. The charity was hopefully cosmo-
politan. The Empress Of Germany placed her
name on the roll, % did the Prince Frederick
William Of Prussia and his wife, the Princess
Victoria. Bankers Of the Jewish and Gentle
persuasions responded. Incorporated railroad
and mercantile companies and the associated
members Of the municipal corporations came
forward with funds from their respective
treasures. Americans travelling abroad for
pleasure or on business set the consideration
Of their own personal affairs aside for season
and took counsel with each other as to the best
means Of assuaging the grief which had fallen
so su ddenly and with such ruinous severity on
portion Of their countrymen at home.
Stricken Paris, staid and steady Glasgow,
impoverished Dublin, the light-hearted children
of sunny Cork, the toilers and calculators oil
Manchester, the citizens Of sober-minded
Belfast, the huge mart Of Liverpool and the
overshadowing metropolis Of England were
all moved with common impulse and pro-
claimed with one accord that the equality" Of
charity, like that Of mercy, is mot strained, bu,
droppeth as the gentle dew from heaven, and

THE OPEN POLAR SEA, discovered by the
expedition Of DR.. Kane some years ago, is
now reported as having been sighted by the
German expedition beading for the Pole by
way Of the Spitzbergen Islands. The Ger
mans report, too, that this open Polar Sea
swarms with whales, and we are inclined to
believe the report for there, within the broad
surrounding barriers Of ice, the whales are
secure from the whalers, and no adventurous
Yankee has yet ''struck lie" within that Polar
basin, because no one has yet found the way
to get into 1t. Captain Hall, we hope, will
find the way 10, and come back, not only with
. piece Of the North Pole as the fgurehead
OF the Polaris, but with q chart OF his route
and . report that II 10 open 10 our whalers Ia
the summer, and that the open sea around the
Pole swarms with whales, walruses, seals and
white bears.

THE WESTERN FOREST FREs-GENERAL
SHERIDAN TO TIE RESCUE. On Saturday last,
on being officially informed BY Governor Fair
child Of the destitution and suffering resulting
from the forest fires in Northern Wisconsin,
General Sheridan at once issued orders for the
despatch of four thousand army blankets, two
thousand overcoats and one hundred wagons
for their relief. These are the very supplies
most needed by those exposed and suffering
people-bankets for the poor women and
children, overcoass for the men, and wagon.

had their hands as deeply in the treasury one
as the other.
Aside from the topics and events referred
to above two events, more remarkable than
usual took place here yesterday. One was
the resignation Of DR.. Joseph P. Thompson,
who for twenty-six years has held the pas
torate of the Broadway Tabernacle congrega-
tion-the old building of which on Broadway
was once so famous as the centre Of New
York abolitionism, Of which the Doctor himself
was always firm and eloquent champion.
He retires from the ministry on account Of
physical disability, and carries with him the
prayers and the best wishes of his congrega-
ton and Of the great body Of Christians gen.
orally. The other event was the dedication
Of Reformed church for the Rev. DR.. Ganse
and his people on Madison avenue and Fifty
seventh street. The Reformed Church does
not extend itself very rapidly here, and little
child can easily count the edifces which have
been dedicated by It here during the last
fifteen years. 4x

A cable Telegram iron Coastantinople, BY
way Of London, anns1nsss 10 our readers 70
day that the Turkish government intends to
seize tho property Of The mosques and apply Il
to the use Of the State. The idea is pro
gressive one, and in complete accordance with
the spirit and rule which have lately moved
and guided many Of the Christian governments
Of the Old World-of Italy and Spain particu-
larly-in their treatment of the ecclesiastical
domains. The statesmen of Turkey have been
anxious to grapple with the power of the
clergy for many years past, but the territorial
wealth and consequent lay influence of the
ecclesiastical corporations made the ministers
timid and hesitating, both in their debates or
the adoption Of any actual resolve in the
premises. Treasury necessities are most
urgent to cabinets, however, and, looking at
the actual condition Of the Turkish exchequer,
we are induced to believe that tho Sultan will
at no distant day lay his hands on the property
entail Of the Church, consecrated though it
may be by post-obit donation, clerical posses
sion and time-acknowledged exercise Of
manorial rights. The final accomplish
ment of the act will be attended
with very serious popular commo-
tion, no doubt; but It's consequences must
eventually produce the most excellent effects
in hberating the churches Of the East from
monastic influence, and thus restoring them to
their original simplicity of discipline and form
Of worship, and SO permitting the native
clergy to come nearer to their Christian
brethren in Italy and other free countries.
The importance Of the subject can be esti-
mated by the illustration which we append to
our news telegram explaining the nature Of
the Church property all which will be affected
by the act Of the Sultan.

every important industrial centre there exists
an element OF danger which seems TO be
almost completely overlooked by those who
weigh the chances Of social strife in England.
We allude to what are known as the 'Trish

ration from the British empire, these colonies
are the very hotbeds of democracy and the
most potent agents in its spread among the
English working classes. And yet the Irish

cause Is simple. Though republicans, the
Irish are Catholic, and will not connect them

anything, these colonies would become most

Self-Supp0rting Wives.

Col. dlgg1nSon IN the w Womans journal
For young married women to under.
take to contribute to the family income
is in most cases utterly undesirable, and
is asking of themselves a great deal too
much. And this is not because they
are to be encouraged in Incidence, but
because they already, in a normal con-
dition of things, have their hands full.
As, on this point, 1 may differ from
some of my associates, let me explain
precisely what l mean. As I write
there are at work, in other parts of the
house, two paper-hangers, a man and
his wife, each forty-fve or fifty years of
age. Their children are grown up and
some of them married they have a
daughtor at homo who Is able 10 de, tho
housework and leave the mother free.
There is no possible way of organizing
the labors of the household so judicious
as this the married pair work together
during the day and go home together
L never saw it is delight to see them
cheerfully at work together, cutting,
pasting, hanging; their life seems like
prolonged industrial picnic, and if l
had the luck to own as many palaces as
an English duke, l should keep them
permanently occupied in putting fresh
papers on the walls. But the merit of
this employment for the woman is, that
it interferes with no other duty. Were
she a young woman with little children,
and obliged by her paper-hanging to
neglect them, or to leave them at a
"day- nursery" or to overwork herself
by combining all her duties, then the
sight of her would be very sad. So
sacred a thing does motherhood seem
to me, SO paramount and absorbing the
duty of a mother to her child, that in
true state of society think she should
be utterly free from all other duties
even, if possible, from the ordinary
cares of Housekeeping. If she has
spare health and strength to do these
other things as pleasures, very we'll but
she should be relieved from,.them, as
duties. And as to selfsupport, 1 can
hardly conceive of an instance where it
can be to the mother of young children
anything but calamity.

While the red light of the morning is failing,
Sturdy and strong sails the bark-dips the

Two, hand in hand, climb over the mountain,
Footsore and weary from tempest and toll
With only moment to drink from the foun-

Renewing their strength for to-morrows tur-

Whose solemn waves break with wonderful
