The telegraph recently informed rs
that DR.. Ksnealy, famous as being coun-
sci for orion in the great Tichborne con-
test in England. has been debarred by
vote Of his fellow lawyers and that his
name has been struck from the list Of
Queens counsel by the Lord Chancel-

Arthur Orion. and is chiefly famous for
the length OF his closing speech on the
last trial Of "ths claimant" This
speech, IL We remember rightly, oc-
cupiedin allabout thirty-threc days. The

AN uxAxswrRAnlk OBJECTION.

There have been many reasons ~
signed Why VIM. Sharon II totally I'M
fitted to represent Nevada in the United
States Senate. Most Of these objections
have either been answered or passed
over in silence as unworthy Of reply.
But the following. which We nnd copied
IN the Sacramento Union from the San
Jose Patriot, seems to b unanswsrabls.
The man Who would give . minister
5000 to marry his daughter. when he
might have procured the performances
Of the ceremony for % so. is totally ur-
at for the high Office Of . National
Legislator. Let the Chronicle and hide
pendent read the following and then draw
q comparison between the extravaganza
OF Mr.. Sharon in giving 5000 to .
clergyman and the economy which
should b exhibited by . public oticer.
The fact that Mr.. Sharon gave away his
own money need not be cited In making
the comparison or drawing . moral
thsrsfrom. Such fragrant exhibitions Of
reckless expenditure should not pass un-
needed by the opposition press. Read
this. and see II Il isn't q "rclincher:"
"Sharon. II said in the San Francisco
papers. on the night Of the marriage Of
his daughter TO Nsvlands. paid Bishop
Alsmany 5000 for performing the mar
| rage service. II Sharon did ~ foolish
. thing a. that. We certainly think he ID
unfit TO bs sent TO the Senate Of the
United States, and we hope the people
Of Nevada win think better Of IL than to
make him their representative in that
body. We would not like 10 give q man
manifcsting &C little proper idea OF the
value OF money and its uses as this act
shows, any control over the finances OF
the nation. Fifty or n hundred dol
lars would well have paid the Bishop
for his services on that occasion. and
the balance OF the 81. 900 being $4,000,

spooks In Plymouth Church.

On the Goth OF November, 1871, says
the Graphic, began a series OF e1traordi-
nary manifestations in Plymouth Church
which have recently been described by q
writer Of a Brooklyn paper, ando which
we give a brief account. 1t appears that
by chance four lady reporters had been
assigned to take reports Of Mr.. Beecher's
sermons about that time. and, finding II
i%nconvenisnt to take notes On the covers
OF the hymn books, they requested per-
mission OF the deacons to bring a table
for this purpose. Accordingly, on Sat
urday evening. Nov. 25th, they pur-
chased in Fulton street q small pine
table, painted In imitation Of black wal
nut, and sent II to the church. On tho
following morning they pr csedsd to the
church as usual, and found tho table
placed as they required just in front Of
the platform. Two Of the ladies sat on
the long side with their backs to the
congregation, and one at each end. The
opening services were conducted rs
usual, anil Mr.. Beechsr having giving
out his text proceeded with his sermon
The ladies' were busily employed in TAX
ing notes when Of a sudden the table
gave q lurch in one direction, then in the
other and finally settledinto nm osciliatory
movement, backward and forward. The
ladies locked In amazsment at each
other, and the inquiry, ibid you doitl"
passed from one to tho other, and met
with general denial. In the meantime
they got behind hand In their report,
and upon recovering from their surprise
betoek themselves to catch up the
threads Of the discourse. The table had
become quiet apparently, but as soon as
they laid their hands upon II again there
was q succession OF movements which
entirely prevented them from writing.
and they were compelled to employ the
backs OF their hymn books again. On
tn, following Sunday the table did not
wait for the beginning Of the sermon.
