The F5sEz-FTansfeEG Ease.

The Fisk Mansfield case came up in
the YorkviIle police court on Saturday.
Miss Mansfield testified that she is
twenty-four years of age, and has re-
sided in New York since 1867. She
was married IN San francisco in 1864,
to Frank Lawler, who is still living.
She first met Fisk at the house Of q
friend; he had got her apartments in
the American Club House. She had
received many letters from Fisk, about
five hundred of which she has still on
hand She had some personal property
when she first met Fisk; was not sup
ported by him, money for this purpose
coming to her through stock operations
carried on by VIM. Ell. Marston with
money furnished by Fisk. The money
thus received amounted to two or three
hundred dollars per week. After leav-
ing the club house she lived in Jersey
City, and while there received money
through the Erie Railroad from Fisk,
who continued to live with her. The
case will come up again on Saturday
next.

Too Good to be Lost.
From a New York Letter.

In Union League Club, the other
evening, I listened to good one
on Thrrlow Weed. I don't believe even
Greeley ever heard it. To wit:
Weed had about as much system in
keeping his accounts land his money!
as Micawber He was little greater
man, though, and had that grain of
good sense which suggested to him the
propriety of placing any specific sum
of money which he didn't want spent
at random in the hands of some finan-
cier friend. In 1856 t'T. W. came to
New York and received S25, 900 from
his Republican friends-$10, 900 for the
purpose of defeating Fillmore for Pres
ident, $4,000 for the use of the Re-
publicans in Albany, and S5, 900 for the
Evening Journal. For safe keeping he
gave the Albany central committee $10,-
900 to the Journals S credit, and request
ed his partner (Mr. Sinclair, I bel1eve)
to place the secret $4,000 to be used
against his old friend Fillmore, to his,
Sinclair credit in bank, which could
be drawn as required. He did so. One
fine morning Sinclair dropped dead
from heart disease. The $40, 900 stood
to his personal credit without word
of explanation. In vain Thurlow Weed
sought the ear of the bank officers
They could do nothing. The executors
of the estate found the $4,000 to Mr..
Sinclair's credit. They could not, with
out proof, hand it over to Mr.. Weed or
his political friends. Thus it was swept
into the dead mans estate and into the
hands of his fascinating widow. Not a
dollar was used to defeat the placid
Millard Fillmore. A year thereafter,
the honorable ex-President from Buffalo
and the charming widow of Mr.. Weeds
partner were attracted by that myster-
ious influence presided over by Venus.
A few months later they were united by
the hymenial knot, and poor Weed
saw his darling $4,000 raised to defeat
Mr. Fillmore, in 1856, directed from it's
original purpose into the unsuccessful
candidates g marriage portion !" It
is said that Thurlow Weed tells this
good joke on himself with a relish, and
joins as heartily in the guffaw it never
fails to inspire, as he used to, in those
" halcyon days of yore," when he told
stories on the stage-coaches between
this city, and the capital of the Excel
sior State.

A Python at Lunch.

The London Graphic for October
21st, has a wonderful story of animal
resurrection at the Geological gardens.
A boa, at dinner time, had just crush
ed rabbit, and was about to swallow
it when huger snake, the python,
darted out and gulped down the rabbit
and all of the boa except few inches
of his tail. The keeper, Holland, here,
joined the party and took hand, and
actually rescued the boa, not, however,
without receiving some bites. He seized
the python by the neck and shook MIN
until about a foot of the boa appeared,
the tail quivering and the python
dashing about like mad thing He
swiftly pulled the boa out, binding the
python with his cap. The boa, which
is about six feet long, is none the worse
for having visited the inside of the
python. We could hardly credit the
story but for the lively picture which
is given of the transaction.

P&rtlcuIiaES OF a volcanic OuSDurst Oh

The following particulars of a volcan-
ic outburst on the island of Camiguin,
in the Philippines, are from the Diario

On the 25th of February they were
startled by shocks of earthquakes, which
came so close after one another that
one day no less than 81 were felt III
one hour, moving in different direc-
tions. The islanders soon perceived
that tue shocks were strongest near the
town of Catarman for the mountain
which bears that name was seen to have
great clefts III its sides, and Iandsilps
had carried down from the top of the
mountain to the bottom all the vegeta-
tion upon it, together with earth and
stones The townsfolk did not remove
from their houses, trusting that these
phenomena would pass off without do
ing any harm, as had happened in other
parts of the Philippines but on May
l, at six A. NJ, a small column OF smoke
was seen from Lubec, an outlying part
of the town, whereupon large number
of the inhabitants prepared to take
flight. The smoke disappearing after
a time, they went back to their houses;
but at 7 P. NJ. they were alarmed by a
loud explosion. and on going out to
find the cause they were seen by some
onlookers at the distance to be enve-

This cloud reached the latter. too,
The whole of the population of the is
land then forsook their houses, and ran
to the seashore to get away from the
island but when day dawned it was
found that all this multitude could not
leave for the opposite coast, owing TO
their only having five boats. Boats were
then sent to take the islanders to safer
quarters. The Diario thus describes
the state of the volcano then: The

victims it made at Lubue, which con-
tanned 80 houses, and in many other
houses In the country near the crater,
cannot be calculated to this day More
than twenty dead bodies have been met
with near the aforesaid places, but no
thing is known as to how many of the
inhabitants of Lupuc have perished,

Field Marshal Benedek.

General Field Marshal Benedek died
suddenly of an apoplectic attack last
month at Vienna He was born in
1904 at Odenburg, in Hungary. He
entered the Austrian army as cornet
in 1922, and attained the rank of colon
Ell in 1843. Two years later he exhibi
ted great military talents during the
insurrection in Galieia, He took part
in the memorable campaign of 1848 in
Italy, under --Radetzky, distinguishing
himself at the battle of Curtatone, for
which he received the order of Maria
Theresa. During the war of italian in
dependence, 1859, he was one of the
few Austrian generals who showed some
military capacity. At the battle of
Solferino he commanded the left wing
Of the army, which was the last to
leave the field. He was Governor of
Hungary for few months in 1860, and
was soon appointed to the chief com
mand of the Austrian army in Italy.
During the war between Austria and
Prussia in 1866 General Benedek was
from May 5th in command of the
North. At Sadowa, July Sd, the forces
under his command were defeated.
General Benedek was soon after super
seeded by the Archduke Albert, and in
October, 1856, he was put on the retir-
ed list.

EOUuT, ADdraSSy.

Twenty years ago Count Andrassy
lived in London in very straitened cir
cumstances. He was Hungarian ex-
lie, having been sentenced to death, in
September, 184s, for participation in
the Hungarian revolution. After the
surrender of Arthur Georgey at Vilagos,
he had barely succeeded in escaping
across the Turkish frontier. His prop
erty in Hungary was confscated and
when he reached Constatinople he had
to borrow money in order to pay for his
passage to England. There he made a
precarious living by giving lessons in
French, German and mathematics, and
he devoted his spare hours to writing
pamphlets on Hungarien affairs, in
which he bitterly attacked the Austrian
government and stigmatized the En-
peror Francis Joseph as one of the
most blood-thirsty and cruel rulers of
modern times. To-day Count Andras-
sy is Chancellor of the Austro-Hungar-
ian monarchy, the favorite and con-
fidential adviser of the monarch whom
he once SO roundly abused, and the
successor of the most brilliant states
man that has conducted the foreign af-
fairs of Austria since Prince Meter
mich surrendered the reins of govern
ment.

Flight of Carrier Pigeons.

From the Newark Courier, Nov. 10.
We noticed short time ago the Won
derful flight of the carrier-pigeon
Tempest. We have now to record the
still more extraordinary time of two
other birds sent home. The following
notes were found on them on their az
rival:
"DEAR FATHER-September Is, 1871,
latitude 27 degrees To- north, longi-
tude 79 degrees 30' west, 1,004 statute
miles from Montclair, n. il will
let the mail bird Tornado go with this
note at exactly 8 o'clock IN the morn
ing, New York time I let the bird
Tempest go on the 10th. She rose up
about five hundred yards high, and
then made one tremendous plunge to
the north, and was out of sight about
as quick as a flash of lightning.
Ell. G.. BLEEKER y
"DEAR FATHER-November q, 1871,
latitude 26o north, longitude go 5
minutes west, 1886 statute miles from
Montclair, N. J. [ will let the old bird
Typhoon go with this note at exactly
s o'clock, in the forenoon, New York
time. He is powerful bird, but he
has fearful job on hand. He must
go through it or perish. All well.
"HARRY G. BLEEoKER. "
The bird Tornado arrived at Mont
clair the same day, at seven minutes
past o'clock in the afternoon, making
over one hundred and ninety-six miles
an hour. Typhoon arrived the same
day, at tifty-four minutes past O'Clock
in the afternoon, and fell dead on his
arrival, but he brought the note in the
unprecedented time of two hundred and
two miles an hour.

The Society of the Conservation Con-
certs in Paris is to bring out the new
work of Gounod, called Gallia, !"
which he composed in London, when
the frightful events of the war were go
ing on IN France. He has set to music
the first chapter of the " Lamentations
of jeremiah" beginning: How doth
the city sit solitary that was full of
people how is she become as a widowl
she that was great among the nations
and princes, among the provences,
how is she become tributary !" The
composition made deep impression in
England, where it was played for the
first time. It is written for orchestra,
organ, chorus and soprano solo, and at
tains an elevation of tone beyond the
ordinary style of Gounod. Especially
impressive is the passage, "Is it moth
ing to you, all ye that pass by behold
and see if there be any sorrow ike IN
TO my sorrow,n etc., sung by the chorus
broken by the sad notes of the soprano,
repeating the same words
