GREEK CHURCH st. Petersburg
letter to the Paris JourndL des De5ats
gives some evidence that the dogma Of
infallibility is working to the advantage
of the Greek Church. Several conver-
sions are reported, the most interesting
of which is that of Dane by birth but
an American citizen by naturalization,
DR.. Bjeoring, who was Jealous Cath
olic missionary and professor of philoso-
ply in the seminary at Baltimore. Being
unable to assent to infallibility, DIR. Bic
oring entered the orthodox church, was
ordained at st. Petersburg and returns
to the United States to preach the
Greek faith. On the occasion of his or
dination mass was celebrated in Eng
lish at the Church of the Academy, and
he received full powers from the metro
politan of st. Petersburg to found at
New York an orthodox church, of
which he is appointed archpriest.

4 SISGULAR PHENoMENoS.-Th
Worcester Mass SPY says: "a sin
gular electrical phenomenon is manifest
at a dwelling on Pleasant street. In
passing around the room and rubbing
the feet on carpet a person becomes
highly charged with electricity; upon
touching the register or any good CON
ductor, brilliant spark of large size is
developed. The gas can De readily light
ed by just turning ii on, and then rub
bing the feet on the carpet and holding
one finger over the jet. a spark often
darts from the feet when passing over
certain places in the floor, producing a
painful sensation. The electricity is
only developed by rubbing the feet on a
carpet laid with Manila paper When
three or four persons take hold of hands
and walk around they all become power
fully charged, and the one first touch
ing a conductor would not care TO repeat
the experiment What peculiar arrange
ment in a house is necessary to produce
this phenomenon, and its influence ON
the health of its inmates being constant
ly charged with electricity, is question
for the scientist"

seems to have been a quite general re-

lager beer, cider and all other alcoholic
mixtures.
For the three preceding years there
has been but few sales of real estate in
town. However, since last fall several
parcels of land have been sold for slate
quarrying purposes at high prices, and
we confidently expect a brisk business
in slate quarrying the coming spring.
Several farms and parts of farms for
other purposes have changed owners,
this winter, at full prices, and there
seems no prospect that real estate will
recede from the standard of three years
ago II. II.

AUsTRIA.-The past two years have
seen an extraordinary improvement in
the finances of Austria; 1870 was better
then 1869, and 1871 than 1870. The
revenue has risen eighteen per cent.
since 1868. An end is put to an eccen-
trio and pernicious habit adopted by the
Government of keeping an enormous
sum for contingencies in the Treasury,
and borrowing meanwhile at nine per
cent. Baron Holzgethan is likely soon
to be succeeded by NJ. Brestl as Finance
Minister. The principal Continental
holders of Austrian securities are the
Dutch, whose interest in them is very
large indeed

Death in the Sewer.
The statement has already been pub
| lished in the iSta7adard that four children
of a Mr.. Brown, living at No. AS
Eleventh avenue, had died of spotted
fever within ten days. DR. Morris, City
Sanitary Inspector, has investigated the
matter'and made a lengthy report there
on to the Board of Health. 1t appears
that of five children, under thirteen
years of age. who took the disease, four
| died after a few hours illness-twO of
them within eight hours after exhibiting
the first syptOms of the disease. In
each case the symptoms were first shown
at night, these being intense pain in the
head and soreness of the body, accom-
panied by severe vomiting. On looking
| for the cause of the disease, it was found
in a defective drain pipe connecting with
the sewer, 1t appears that one carthen-
ware waste pipe built into the partition
| served for two houses, and that the ell
/ bow which turned the pipe from the
/ house to the street was so loosely fitted
/ that the foul OdOrs and gases from the
/ sewer escaped into the house. At night,
| when there was little or no ventilation,
| the stencil from this cause was over
| p0Wering 1t had been often observed
| by the family, but Mr. Brown, hciC- C.
! poor man, could not afford to have the
/ plumbingeXaminedtO ascertain the cause.
/ These gases, acting upon children whose
/ food was not sufficiently nQuriShipg,
/ prOduCed sickness aid speedy death.
| The Inspector caused the landlord to
! remedy the evil at once. In concluding
/ his report. Dr.. Morris expresses the Opiu-
ion that a LARGE portion Of the low fcvers
which pres all may bc attributed 10 bad
+ ly-COndUCted waste pipes, which permit
the foul gasca of the sewers TO escape
through sinks and stationery washing

the fact that he ordered iron pipes to be

tiles current on the other side with re-
gard to the Alabama claims themselves,
is that the leading officers Of the govern
ment have bought them up, right and
left. The Pail Mall Gaeette allows it
self to say, from its knowledge of politi-
cal life in the United States, that the
reports are probably true; and the Ga-
sette draws the inference that the spirit
with which the American case is sup
ported is in consequence Of the peCuni-
ary interest which public men have
staked upon the issue. The Pail Mall
Gazette is not in the habit of dealing
with great questions in this paltry way.
The fact of its attaching Importance to
a rumor like this shows how utterly and
hopelessly blind the ruling classes in
Great Britain are to the sense of injury
which every true American feels, entire
ly apart from the pecuniary losses which
individuals and the nation suffered on
her account.

her property, estimated at -, 900, 900,

she was of uns0und mind at the time of
her decease, and are on the eve of enter
ing a suit for recovery of the property
in the courts in that city, as several Of
them have taken up their residences
there. The old lady was very penurious,
and never wrote to her relatives, deClar-
ing paper, envelopesand postage would
ruin her. She lived on the plainest of
food, and had it not been for the care of
relatives would have starved herself to
death. Her peculiarities We're many
She was monomaniac On the subject
of cleanliness, and made visitors take off
their shoes in the hall. 1t was her fixed
opinion that the two greatest men who
ever lived were George Washington and
Roger Williams. Her house was cover

visitor must presume to wear his hat or

DARING BURGLARY IL FAIRFAX. - a
daring burglary was committed in Fair
fax, on Sunday evening. While the
family Of J. NJ. Hotchkiss was at church
his house was entered through q window
by two youths. George Watson and T.
Patten. who it seems were anxions TO
relieve Mr. H. of the trouble of keeping
his watches, jewelry and silver beds
were upturned, bureaus "mptied Of their
contents, desks ransackcd to secure the
coveted articles. The unlimited guests
used the curtain for lamp-lighters and
made sad havoc with the pies and cakes
Money and valuables TO the value Of
5000 were taken by them. They after
wards kindly assisted in the search for
the guilty persons, and then repaired to
the Fairfax House. where in return for
the hospitality of its proprietor they
took two Of his best horses and brides
and left in haste without paying for
them. They have since been seen at
johnson, also at Wolcott. Officers are
on their truck, and there is but little
prospect of their escaping.
