From the Patriot.
A Medley Of MOnarchs.

The treaty of the High Commission
has one peculiarly which is worthy OF
special notice. Although that extraor-
binary embassy was created to close up
all outstanding differences between the
Two countries, no single question has
been distinctly and definitely determin-
ed by it. Every claim, disputed right,
or contested privilege has been referred
to some arbitration or commission, in
which the United States figure as one
party, against four or tive throughout.
Monarchs are 10 fix the measure OF our
grievances; and, in fact, to decide
whether they exist or not They con-
stitute the tribunal of last resort from
which there is no appeal. We are
bound in advance 10y their tut, what
ever it may be.
As this mass OF majesty, 10 whose
tender care Republican Admlnlstra-
ton has consigned American citizens,
may create confusion in the popular
mind; we have thought it desirable TO
abstract rom the overpowering treaty
brief that will present to view at
glance all the matters and monarchs az

Mr. LENNON. OF New York, the owner
of the Lennox library, which is to be
given to the public alter few years, IS
a recluse in his habits, and has always
been exceedingly averse to allowing any
body to Inspect his photographic treas,
ures. Some time ago Henry Ward
Beecher was anxious 10 gain admission
to the library to cousulta rare volume,
which could only he found there. The
person in charge told him the admission
was Impossible, and that the owner
could not be seen by any body. Beecher,
however, desired him to take his card
to Mr.. Lennox, which was finally done.
"Beecher," said the scholarly hermit, as
he looked at the card, who is this man.
| have never heard OF him; give him my
compliments, and tell him the library
is not open to visitors" .
