The most romantic phase of the affair Is
created BY the Grand Dukes deep attach
ment for an American girl who, as already
stated, is said to be beautiful beyond descrip-
ton, and who is the daughter OF Rev. Or.
EIy,a Clergyman of Connecticut. She met
him at u masquerade ball in St. Petersburg,
and without Knowing him ayailed herself OF
the custom of the country on such occasions
and took possession of him. The two be.
came mutually fascinated, and she was
greatly abashed to find out who it Twas that
had so rapidly gained sucha hold on her af-
fections. They have lived together since
until the night of-the Dukes arrest, when
she saw him for the. last time. A few days
afterward she was escorted beyond the bor-
ders by two Russian policemen. Should
Justice lake its course the Grand Duke will
soon be liberated, and the Grand Duchess Of
Russia may yet hail from Connecticut.

The CHAMPION ScANDAL.-The Times of

the, occasion OF some strange phraseology.

genious words descriptive Of strong feel.
ings and sentiments of heart and mind,
The New York Tribune is crazy over Dir.
BEscHEn, and in lauding his pulpit ca.
reer declares that nothing like it has been
known since the days Of the disciples. 1t
utterly ignores FENELoN, and BossUhT, and
MAslILoN, and all the noted reformers. The
women are crazy over BEEcHER, to whom
many had, before the scandal, written ferVid
loye-letters, which were all opened by Mrs.
BErcHER or somebody else, and were never
answered-so tits said by Mr. BgEcHER. Then
we have it that BEKoHER not only admired
Mrs. TlIroE, but considered "THEoDoRs "
his bosom friend. And, finally, the World
dismisses " dear THEODORE" with the fearful
term /" koprophagous.n There is some fun
and great deal of disgust in all this.

When he reached home his little boy ran out
to meet him. The father, when about to
throw the tie from his shoulder, told the
little fellow to get out OF bis way. The little
boy, instead of running from his father, ran
ND against him, and the tie falling, struck
the little fellow on the head, killing him in

IMPORTANT SPANISH .NEws--THE UNITED
STATES INVITED TO SEND TROOPS TO CUBA
The New York Sun of Friday has the fol-
lowing dispatch from Washington, which we
can only say is very important ii true. Ii
looks very marvellous, however:
Il am able to inform you with positive
certainty that the Spanish Legation here
have recently been instructed from Madrid
to approach Secretary Hamilton Fish with
the inquiry whether the United States would
be disposed to intervene with armed force IN
Cuba with a view of ascertaining whether
the people of that island really desire or not
to separate themselves from the mother coun-
try.
.'This proposition comes in a certain con-
nection with an intrigue which has for some
time been maturing in Europe, by virtue OF
which Germany and England are TO inter-
vene in Spain itself, and by means of suffi.
Gent bodies of troops put stop to the civil
war now going on there, and place Prince
Alfonso on the throne. This scheme has
been managed especially by PruSsian dip!o,
macy, and as all the money which harshal
Serrano has had for some time past for the
PURPOSE of paying troops and carrying on
his Government has been furnished to him
from the Prrlssian treasury, it is clear that
the proposition to make Alfonso king is not
to be opposed by him, although common de-
cency would forbid bis taking leading part
in putting it into execution. When it is
done, however, by foreign armies, he can
submit to it without mourning special odium
among his countrymen.
Part Of the project is that Prussia shall
have some small island in the West Indies
for water.station. and the consent OF the
United States to this is to be compensated

Charles Wheatstone exhibited some curious
electrical experiments for the amusement o.
his friends, which would seem to throw
some light on certain so called "spirituslis

brilliant crown of electric light in mid-air
while musical instruments seemed to he
played by invisible hands, whereas the
sounds really came from an adjoining room
in which the player sat, and were made to
appear to be produced by the instruments
before the spectators BY an ingenious con.
triyance. A contest between science and
the "spirits" in their own chosen feats
would be almost as memorable rs the cele
brated competition between Moses and the

Duty ON CHURCH PAINTINGS The pastor
of Catholic church at Milwaukee, Wis, has
addressed letter to the Secretary of the
Treasury asking that a package of paintings
intended for his church may be admitted
free of duty under the act of March 2, 1861.
The Secretary of the Treasury has decided
that the codifed laws which take effect from
June @, 1874, remove such articles from the
free list, although it is believed that the alte-
ration was unintentioDal. The law as now
in force permits entrance, duty free, of all
paintings, statrary, or philosophical instru-
ments intended for any philosophical or lite.
rary society. The old law added the words
"or religious society" to the above. The
words cor religious societies" having been
omitted, 1t seems that the paintings alluded
to cannot be admitted.

Abiding to this piteous story OF abduc

renegade Mason, who published book Fifty
years since in which he protested to reveal
the secrets OF Masonry. The World archl'
and mischievously remarks that THUsLGN

old THURLow was The editor Of the Aloan!
Ecening Journal, and was the leader OF lhs
anti Masonic party of that day.
Soon after MoRaAN's book appeared TN
author disappeared, and be was never attel
seen or heard of. The event created, I'M
meuse excitement, and the anti-Mason'
charged that be was killed and put away b,
the Masons. A great agitation prevailed ii
New York, Pennsylvania, and the adjacent
regions, The anti-Masons had high time
nominated Mr.. WRIT for President, were
beaten, and soon subsidized.
The idea generally inculcated by the anti
Masons was that MORGAN was killed, thrown
into Niagara river, and went over the Tails
The Masons said he disappeared as plan to
make his book sell. II he did so disappear
for that purpose be remained undiscovered
during his lifetime.
We saw bis book, and in youth attempted
to read it. It was very dull; and rejecting
upon it little we came to the conclusion
that as MORGAN had violated bis faith &c
was not TO he believed, and that therefore
his book was not reliable and not worth
the reading as an ostcnsible revelation of
Masonic secrets. We therefore dropped it
without finishing the reading OF it. 1t was
painfully unin!eresting at best.
We can hardly see for what the World
brings this bit of History up again. 1t will
set old TuURLow TO gossipping, and that i'll
be about all it will do. MoRGAN's ctse very
little resembles that Of the abduction Of the
child of Germantown. In ole respect we
hope 1t will not agree with it at all. Nor.
GAN never was heard of. We very much
hope that little Ross will be recovered alive.

Spain and the German Government.

The North German Gazette announces
That the German Government will probably
interfere in Spain in behalf of outraged
civilization" The Carlists have not cooked
aud eaten German, but they are reported
to have killed one. 1t is this which leads
the Gazette to threaten them with German
indignation. The German Government is
not the most famous for refined humanity
and any interference on its part can hardly
be attributed to generous sympathy on be-
half OF " civilization" Nor can Republican
ism construe the ire Of the German Govern
