Sartoris. accompanied by several mem
hers of the foreign legations, paid visit
recently to the Washington gymnasium.
the pugilist, better known as the Cast
Iron Man, who in April, 1857, fought Geo.
Rookie for $4,000 and the mddleweight
championship, is the teacher of boxing.
During the visit of Sartoris and his
friends, Collins was teaching pupil.
Sartoris made remark which riled the
pugilist. The Cast-Iron Man asked Sar-
toriS"lf he could do any BETTER" Sar-
toris' friends urged him TO put on the
gloves. Sartoris then took the gloves,
and pretended he did not know how to
put them on.
The pugilist smiled, and told his pu-
pills that he would take the conccit out
of his unknown opponent. The preliml.
naries were quickly arranged, and the
contest commenced. The Casl-Iron Man
rushed at his adversary, thinking to end
the contest in one round. Sartoris ward
ed off the sledge hammer blows of the
pugilst, and returned left-hander on
the Cast-Iron Mans mouth, drawing the
claret, and then rapidly changing eff, de-
livered straight right hand blow on the
Cast.Iron Mans nose and knocked him
down, much to the surprise of the pugil-
lists friends. In the second round Sar-
toris had the best of the sparring, and
administered a storm of blows on the
pugilists face, and fought MIN down. In
the third round the Cast-Iron Man was
again knocked down, and declined to
con tinue the contest.
Sartoris was borne from the scene
amid loud cheers from his friends. The
Cast-IrOn Man said that he was sick,
but would meet his unknown opponent
again.
A second meeting was arranged, and
Sartoris was again the victor, giving the
Cast-Iron Man a sound drubbing, and
making him acknowledge that sometimes
amateurs are superior to professionals.
The affair has created quite sensation,
and the athletic young Englishman is
the lion of the day among the muscular
young gentlemen with whom he associ-
ates.
1t is said that Sartoris and Baron Rou-
siere have undertaken to revive boxing,
and that they are trying to persuade
some of the ladies of the Court to orga-
nize an. archery club, with a becoming
uniform.-N. Y. Sun.

SMUT FOE PHILOSoPHERs.

proverbial for prurience and fast ideas,
but the Globe probably alludes to that
much larger class comprising "childreu

hind the report is rich in food for perver-
ted sentiment and passion; and to the
philosophical reader it contains revela-
Hons of facts in human nature and re-
hating to the tendency of such social
Ism as has been developed in Plymouth
Church under Mr.. Beecher's administra-
ton. Mr.. Beecher has made religion
enly an accessory to socialism. His DOM
luant idea has been that Christians have
ss good right as the children OF Beliai
to have good time in this world. 81 do
ike to have good time," as one 0. the
Whilom city fathers used to say after a
srand debauch that made him sick for a
tortnighti Plymouth church opened out
under Beecher, twenty-four years ago,
with the determination of having good
time. Ample arrangements were made
for socially among all who could feel
congenial to those who served the Lord
in that way. The society afforded re-
laxation both to the business man and
10 the student; and it enabled the retired
gentleman and the whole crowd of do
nothing ladies' to kill time with the
greatest zest. The church itself and its
Sabbath exercises were deliberately in
tended to divert and amuse chiefly, with
the smallest possible net result Of in
sffuction. His immense success in this
policy has given him the reputation OF
s,the great preacher"
He has mainly addressed the emotions
snd with such plentiful genteel buffOon-
cry as has made him star performer on
the sacred rostrum. He has studied SEN
sstion by making what might be taken
for bold Innovations upon the orthodoxy
10 which he owed allegiance by his pro-
fession and conservation, but which
could be construed away IL too severely
criticised. Almost every week the out
eide world has gaped with admiration
snd wonder at the dashing strokes OF
sthe great preacher" The general effect
;ef his preaching has been not merely to
uberalize theological thought, but an
IlEort to tear down the old citidal with its
ample and reliable fortifications against
social and moral abuses, without laying
ths foundations for and pushing upward
q new castle with new defenses.
Hence, Beecher has built up what has
been aptly termed plymouth civiliza
tion." The grand result is the scandal
that is without precedent as to magni
tade, and will probably never again be
yasalleled.
1t is in view Of such bearing OF the
fActs that the trial is Of value to small
Hnmber, while it is curse to the multi
tude.
