SPEAKING of the "mystery" involved
in the charge of adultery against such a
man as Beecher, Mr.. Evarts drew upon
Punch as follows, in the opening of his
argument:
In regard to this sort of miracle he was
reminded of cartoon published in
Punch, representing a Sunday school
boy and his teacher. The boy did not
know what miracle was, and the mas
ter asked him what he would say if he
saw the sun shining in the night? The
boy replied that he should say it was the
moon. "But," said the master, "it a
man should tell you 1t was the snnW
"Please, sir, should say he Ied.''
TLaughter. "But if should tell you ii
was the sun; who never lied !" "Please,
sir, 1 should thing you were drunk"
Laughter. So in this case the jury were
asked to believe the chaste moon, shin
ing in the pure heaven of the religious
world was but the blazing sun of adul.
terry. They would at once declare that
it was the moon, but here Theodore Til
ton came along, and says, 81, Sir Mar
maduke, declare it is the sun OF adulte
ry." What would the jury say to him
He believed they wound say he lied
Laughter.] But Frank Moulton CAM
next, he WHO never told a lie, and said
son the honor of Sir Philip Sidney,
declare it is the sun of adultery" VIVA
| would the jury say to- him but that b
was drunk. Laughter.

MY sHIp-MY CAPTAIN.
l said, in the gladness Of my heart,

l said, in the gladness Of my heart,
Only o little while ago,
"A ship is sailing over the sea,
And her cap ain is hastenlng home to me
Fast as the breezes blow9'
So I watched the waves and / watched the
clouds,
Wandering down by the shore each day,
Till longed for the sea-guil's wings, that
Over the pillows swift might fly
10 meet my love halfway.
Last night they whispered the ship had come,
My slip that was sailing over the sea;
And now in the mornings ruddy glow,
They show me a wreck that is lying low,
But what is this to mep
My ship was strong, and her crew were
Her captain-ahl he was my captain too;
And he promised to meet me safely here
Some day when the day and the SKY were
clear;
And when was his word untrnep
But thisp-why this is battered thing,
And her crew, they tell me, are lost and
dead
Ny captain had always kiss for me
When he came before from over the sea;
But there, meath yonder shed,
Lies one with face so still and white,
And lips that never word will speak;
And they say ah mel but l know, know,
My sailor would never lie silent so,
With my tears upon his cheek.
Oh, let me think that my ship will come!
SO long Pve waited, 1t can not be
That this is the way-so fast, too fast
My ship storm -driven and wrecked at last,
Came over the waves to me.

HUGH j. JEwErT is king Of the tow
line. He was called to the Erie road to
raise it out Of the morass into which
stock gamblers and stock-waterers had
sunk it. He found "Jordan hard road
to travel" even at $4,000 year, with
liberal allowances for good times with
his friends. At last, hoping to "make a
raise" by stitfening up the rates for
freight and transportation, he entered
into the Saratoga Congress with the
New York Central, the Pennsylvania
road and other lines. Garrett, of the b.
Il 0. line, struck for independence. In
stead Of higher rates, the Erie was
forced down to minimum and even
lower rates in the war that was declared
against the B. & 0. Company. The re-
suit is that the Erie has been handed
over to Receiver, and Mr.. Jewett is the
Receiver. He is, therefore, absolute
master by order of the Court; and hav.
ing no interest to pay on stock, he thinks
he can speedily run down the b. & o.
Company, and thoroughly avenge the
Saratoga Congress. The misfortune is,
that the people are made the sport of the
high-handed gamblers in railway stocks.
Immense fortunes are made out of the
leading roads, but not by the honest
stockholders, who, in common with the
people, are swindled.

THE Pennsylvania Gubernatorial Con-
vention of the Republican party made a
platform the other day in telegraphic
style-the fewest words possible
though on important matters, with the
greatest possible obscurity as usual in
party platforms. 1t is pretty definite in
behalf of protection duties, as all parties
in that State are bound to be. AS to
the currency, the platform recognizes
the fact that there is soft-money. and a
hard-money faction within the party,
and, in order to give either chance to
win without party inconsistency, the
deliyersnce on this issue is neither here
nor there.

The Chinese Government has for some
time past been making arrangements in
Europe with view to the defense of the
coast and principal rivers Of the Empire.
Engineering works on an extensive
scale, and supplied with formidable ar
tillery, are about to be constructed at
various strategic points, and the general
system of defense has been contded to
Major-General Ripley, formerly of the
United States Army, but who went over

ceded by other artillery officers whose

and If SO, to become popular in all COM
pactly built cities. Three splendid
dwelling houses on Fifth avenue have
been combined into one immense es stab-
lishment containing twenty-tour suits Of
rooms for families. The whole building
is elegantly furnished inside and out
with all the modern improvements. Ele-
yators are furnished with men to con-
stantly attend them, large dining
rooms are located at suitable points
in the house which are accessible
to all the inhabitants, and cater
ers are provided who furnish the
private tables located at certain
places in these dining rooms at certain

only it's own private table but its own
china and silver, and is virtually as pri-
vate in every respect as though occupy

annoyance of servants and their habits, a

MI. Horace Wilkinson. Of seyenoaks,

Mr.. Horace Wilkinson, of Seyenoaks,
Kent, England, ctaims to be the owner
Of the skull Of Oliver Cromwell. The
Protector died on the Sd OF September,
1868, in his sixtieth year, and was buried
with great pomp in Henry YIPs chapel
in Westminster Abbey on the 23d of No
yember, alter lying in state at the Som
erset House, at the expense Of EGG, 1000.
The coffin which contained the body had
been privately deposited in Westminster
Abbey before, and it was only to his et-
fgy these costly honors were paid. 1t
is claimed by Mr.. Wilkinson that after
the Restoration Cromwelps body was
exhumed and hung at Tyburn, and then
buried beneath the galloWs, but the skull
remained on the top OF Westminster
Hall, and having been embalmed, defed
the atmosphere for twenty-five years,
when it was blown down one day and
picked up by the sentry. 1t was then
purchased by a Mr.. Cox for a museum,
who sold it for f250. The spear-head
that protrudes through the skull is COW
cred with rust, and the skin resembles
hard, dry leather.

THE country is now in its glory. The
warm weather succeeding copious
though gentle rains is pushing forward
vegetation with the greatest rapidity
and yigor. The forest trees-except the
later sorts like the button-wood-are
generally in full leaf. Corn is looking
finely and receiving its first cultivation.
The oat-ields are beautiful and promis-
ing. Wheat on the bottoms is doing
well. Potatoes are vigorous, but the
Colorado beetles are numerous. Close
attention to them would save the vines
from the countless myriads of grubs that
are sure to succeed them. Large
growers of potatoes rely upon
Paris green for killing the grubs,
and pay little attention to the beetles.

A VERY singular illustration of the
power of imagination and its influence
on the ply condition is shown in
the case of the late Samuel Butterworth,
who died in San Francisco few weeks
ago. Butferwerth was O man Of good
sense and was we'll known, both in busi-
ness and political circles. His name
first became familiar to the reading pub
lie as the companion of S. Barton Key,
at the time of the 1atter's unfortunate
death at the hands of Gen. Sickles. He
was at the head of the New York. Sub
Treasury, under Mr.. Buchanan, and
later led the memorable raid ON the New
Ameden Mining property of California,
which was conducted in the interest OF
Kew York capitalists, and after having
gained the suits was sent BY them to the
Pacific Coast at salary of $25, 900 q year.
He died but a few weeks ago worth
$1,000, 900, and it was not his life but his
death that suggested this paragraph.
Some months ago he conceived an idea
that he was suffering from tumor on
:
bis liver. So set was he in this notion
that Notwithstanding the opinions of the
best physicians on the coast to the con-
trary, he insisted on an operation to re-
ieye him of what he felt sure would in
time cost him his life. The operation
showed that his apprehensiops were
entirely groundIess but did not serve to
% convince him. He insisted on repe-
dtion Of the operation and finally died
from the effects of q tumor which existed
only in his imagination. A post mortem
examination showed that he was not
only free from tumor but was not affected
in any way that could have given rea-
sonable grounds for such an apprehen-
ZION.
