INSULT TO THE AMERICAN FLAG

A Card from the Master OF the American
Schooner James Bliss-An Acknowledge
ment OF the Error I'm Fishing Within
the Canadian Limits-No Intentional
Insult offered to the Stars and Stripes.
QUEBEC July 6, 1872
The following letter from the master Of the
schooner James Bliss is publshed:-
To THE EDITOR OF THE MORNING CHRONICLE
SIR-T have noticed in different papers remarks
regarding an insult said to have been made against
the United States nag by Commander Lachance, Of
the Dominion cutter Stella Marie, who seized the
schooner James Bliss, Of which am master, for
fishing within the prescribed limits. l acknow-
ledge that, laboring under the impression that the
treaty was settled and all restrictions removed,
l was found fishing In Canadian waters. In
Justice TO Commander Lachance, / must Say
that, while performing what l suppose was his
duty, he has treated me kindly and like q gentle
man. This treatment have also received In Que
bee from Mr.. Gregory, and Mr.. Titon, of the De-
partment at Ottawa, whom met ut Mr.. Gregory's
Office at quebec. Regarding the turning down OF
the Union part OF the American nag when the DO
minOn Nag was put at the masthead firmly be-
eve this was done through the mistake or simple
ignorance of the second Olcer left In charge Of the
prize, Commander Lachance not being on board at
the time. ALLAN MClSAAC,
Master OF schooner James Bliss.

Sketch Of the CaptOr OF Strauss-Defeat
OF the Committees of the Boston Pam
jandrum.
A reportcr of the HERALD called yesterday upon
Fred. Rullman, the manager who has carried
Strauss away In triumph from the clutches OF the
Boston committees. He gives the following account
of his managerial career:-'
NV first connection with theatres or music In any
way was when quite lad with the old Park
Theatre, some eight years before 1t was burned
down was also connected with the Castle Gar
den when Marti brought out his great Havana
Opera Troupe. also with Jenny Linds concert
career, Tripler Hall, the Old Broadway Theatre ana
Niblos Garden. These various connections deter
mined my career, and rom the time the first
Academy OF Music was built, my whole business
was confined 10 music and the drama, with ballet,
star concerts and readings For MANY years was
principally known as connected with the Academy
OF Music and worked with IL during the hrst sea-

his fingers frOm fear. Afterwards Mr. Gfau,
the gentleman who secured with hss For Mr

which resulted in his making more money than any
literary man as q public reader, In the world, In
the same space OF time Alter Fechter's difference
with the Niblo's Garden management succeeded
I'm engaging him, after his return rom
BOSTON, for a short season, at the French Theatre.
Here had everything to do, and procure dresses
and scenery, as the theatre was comparatively, IN
these respects, nothing more than barn. Every
body predicted failure. But somehow or other my
nye weeks, In the hottest time OF the year, was q
complete triumph.
The greatest obstacles have ever encountered IN
my managerial career were In the engagement OF
strauss as the managers of the Boston Jubilee were
determined, II possible, to prevent his appearance
in New York at all, aud made use OF every possible
argument to prevent his making an ehsasemenls w ~

A suit Of Importance to builders has been
recently decided in the New York court of COM
mon pleas. A brick mason agreed TO build
house and charge Sc per thousand Ior laying the
brick When he came to measure the brick he
measured all the openings-windows doors, etc
as solid ork, making his bill q 900 large r than
IL would lave been had he only measured the
solid wall. The man for whom the work was
done refused TO pay this - 900, and the mason
brought suit 10 force the payment, pleading
the custom Of brickmsscns in his favor. The
court decided that be had no cal right to
charge for laying brick that were never laid.
This decision is not so equitable IL appears to
be at hTsf glance The rule in this District has
been To n essure chimnies solid for workman
ship only and give the workman one-nalf the
door and window openings. The reason for this
rule Is III 1t bricklayer can bnild a solid pier
quicker than he can a hollow chimney finish
ing around the fire places, parging the fiues, Sc
So too a workman while fitting bricks to a win
dow or door frame could at least fill half the
opening. IL will be seen that if the sS per thou
sand in the New York case was only a fair rate

as she lay on the couch he had made
for her through the summer night, that
the man whose heart had been meas
ured in the strength and sleeplessness,
and honor, and courage of a great love
would have returned had he been alive.
She only arose and tottered to the bed
side, whose topmost cover was bright
serape; but she never left it again. The
one mighty love of a life in whose
sordid surroundings it was the one
glimpse of something brighter and hap
pier, was as much reality as though it
had been plighted a thousand times.
The ancestral courage and hope which
had come to her through such degen-
crate veins helped her to die.

The anecdotes of the great MarshaPs

of heat and cold, his savage disregard
of personal comfort and neatness-are

most characteristic of all is his appear

shirts and a tattered cloak, tied up in a

South Sea Marriages.

The Queensland papers report the
marriage of two South Sea Islanders
with English women, the first mar
riages of the kind which have yet oc-
Cured. The ladies who have thus
broken through the bonds of custom
are the Misses Harriet Charlesworth and
Ann Sims. The former is native of
Walford, in the county of Essex, and is
aged twenty-five. The latter is one
year younger, and Beckington, in
Somersetshire, is entitled to the dis
tinction of being her birthplace. The
bridegrooms are natives of the island of
Lifu, and intend to return to their
island home Immediately, carrying their
spouses with them. They were Chris
tians before coming to Queensland, and
have fair knowledge of English. One
of them was able to sign the marriage
register in handwriting that would
have been creditable to an accom-
plished European, and both of them
answered all the questions put to them
by the minister very intelligently, al
though somewhat puzzled at the inter
rogatories respecting the degrees o
kindred. Their wives are only lat'
