Breaking it Gently.
BY MARK TWAIN.

"YcS | remember that ancedOtc,'
tie Sunday School Superintendent
said, with the old pathos in his voice,
and tie old sad look in his eye. ut
was about a simple creature named
Higgins, that used to haul rock for
old Maltby. When the lamented
Judge Bag)cy tripped aud fell down
the court house stairs, and broke his
neck, it was great question how to
break the news to poor Mrs. Baglcyo
But finally the body was put into
Higgins wagon, and he was instruct,
cd to take it to Mr.. b but to be
very guarded an discreet in his lang
uage, and not break the news to her
at once, but do it gradually and gent
ly. When Higgins got there with
his sad freight, he shouted ill Mrs.
BagIcy came to the door.
Then he said, docs the wilder
Bogley live here
The widow Bagley ? No, sir! !"
III bet she does. But have it
your own way. Well, docs Judge
Bagley live here ?"
Yes, Judge BagiCy lives here"
iii bet he don't, But never
mind, il aiL't for me to contradict.
Is the Judge in?"
mo, not at present"
Il just expected rs much. Because
you know-take hold o'suthin, mum,
for | m agoing to make little com,
munication, and | reckon maybe it'll
jar yCu somc-thcre's been an acci-
dent, mum. I've got the old Judge
curled up out here in the wagon, and
when you see him you'll acknowledge
yourself that an inquest is about the
only thing that could be comfort to
him {"

TIE AMERICAN CARDINAL.-The
Chicags Tribune reports a rumor,
without, however giving the source
from which it was obtained, that the
question whether America is to have
a cardinal at Rome or not, has at
length been settled. The rumLr is to
The effect that the honor will be con-
ferred upon James n. MacMastcr,
editor of the New York Freeman's
Journal. The Tribune refers to the
fact, not generally understood, that
this clerical dignity is not necessari>
ly given TO ordained priests, not a
few members of the Sacred Col ege
having risen no higher in holy orders
than deacons.
There are cardinal bishops, clrdi.
nal priests, and cardinal deacons. and
of the latter class are some of the
most distinguished of the cardinals.
Cardinal AnlonellI, one of the ost
notable princes of the church, is only
a cardinal deacon, and instances
might be given where laymen have
been made deacons and Immediately
thereafter made cardinals. 1t is
therefore not impossible that the ru-
mOred dignity may await Mr.. Mac
Master, although it must be admitted
that it seems highly improbable.

These buildings have somehow out

And SO, although We do not as they

that the sentiment of abhorrence
which has clung to the Nathan man

sacrifice than the destruction Of the
gloomy and sadly memorable place.

The Swift Comet.

From the the Albany Journal.
The new comet lately discovered
by Professor Swift is likely to be an
object of great popular as well as
scientific interest. 1t is steadily ap-
proaching the earth, and with an
opera 6 ass can be seen as a nebuIous,
hazy mass with bright point lit
tie on one side. With good teles.
cope the tail is very clearly defined.
1t is now situated, at one o'clock in
the morning, directly beneath the
pole, and about 25 degrees from it,
and Just visible to the naked eve.
So directly is it moving t,ward the
earth that it seems to stand still.
During the the latter part of July
and beginning of August, when it
will he nearest Tie Garth, it vii!
coubtless be conspicuous and beauti-
ful object, as it will then be two hund-
red and forty-fve times as bright
as at the time Of discovery,
while now it Is only five and one
half times as bright. 1t is many
years since any comet has been
near enongh to attract the attention
OF the public in any great degree, and
we may therefore expect to enjoy
very decided astronomical sensation
curing the approaching heated term.
Professor Swift is not, as might he
inferred from the various announce
mentS which have been, the first dis
coverer of this comet. 1t was first
seen at Marseilles, Fraucc, on the 18th
Of April.

The Ku Klux Acts Unconstitu-
tional.

Citizens Of Alabama have been chased
down by Marshal Healey and his malici-
Gus subordinates, have been siez I'd as
conspirato RS, dragged to distant Jail at
Montgom cry, have been prosecuted, tlie9
and convicted by Busteed, who fur nished
illegal laws aud distorted facts to packed
iuries. These citizens have been incar-
cerated for years at Albany. And now
Judge Bradley as the U4ited States
Supreme Court, kicks away the fimsy
political props with which the Woods,
Busteeds and Durells would sustain h cir
monstrous Interpretation of the so-called
Ku-Kux acts He declares that the in
dictments upon which the Grant parish
prisoners we're convicted are utterly un-
constitutional. The duty of Furnishing
conspirasors and murderers belongs to the
State.
While Justice Bradley does not de-
clare in so many words the unconstitution-
aity OF the Ku-Klnx act, his decision
leaves NO doubt that he holds the act to
be illegal so far as it attempts to take
from the Safe the exclusive right to pun
ish offences other than an actual conspir-
scy to deprive negro OF the right to
vote Mobile Register.
