GsuIborL's Unburied Corpse.

No attempt TO inter the remains OF
Joseph Guibord in the Catholic cemetery
at Montreal will be made for some days,
as the necessary preparations cannot be
completed before that time. This delay
is regarded by some of the more inham-
mable Catholics as an indication that the
members OF the Canadian Institute dare
not make a second attempt to bury Gui-
bord. There is no doubt that these people
will be disappointed. The general Opin-
ion among the citizens of Montreal is
that the decree of the Queens Privy
Council will be enforced by the officers OF
the law. 1t is certain that on the day OF
the interment the funeral cOrtege will be
escorted to the cemetery by the Militia.
Whether these precautionary measures
will prevent a cOmmOt'Cn, such as occur
ed at the first effort TO bury GuibOrd S re-
mains, cannot be predicted. The lower
class of French Canadians are ignorant,
fanatical, and completely under the con-
troll ofthe clergy. Should Bishop Bour-
get and his priests positively forbid them
to interfere with the lnterment they
would obey without a murmer. he
Bishop, in his recent address to the peo-
ple. advised them not TO violate the law,
hut he has not ordered them not to resls:
the Institute attempt 10 bury GuIbord
The members of the Institute believe that
he will not issue such an order, and they
fear that his neglect will cause another
riot.
The members of the Institute disclnim
any intention of putting explosive materl-
ais iuIthe grave in which GuibOrd sremains
are to b. inferred. They also deny the
report that they have communicated with
the United States Naval Department con-
corning the use of selt-explosives. They
expect to be able to prevent Gulbord S
disinterment without blowing into eterni-
ty two or three score OF Canadians.
Stone cutters are now busy cutting heavy
stones. 1t is said that these stones are to
be set in the grave in the form of box.
that the coffin containing Gulbord s re-
mains is TO be placed in it, and that the
box will then be covered with a massive
stote, so sealed to it that 1t cannot be re-
moved. As soon as these stones are cut
and in position the interment will take
place.

The magnificent Vanderbilt University
that raises its proud form in the western
suburbs of Nashville, stands on fine
eminence that overlooks the entire city;
views its tall churches and noble build
ings; faces the State Capitol, and takes in
a large extent of surrounding country.
Directly opposite stands Jubilee Hall, the
two buildings appearing as entlnels
guarding and overlooking the city. The
board of trust, of what was Known as
Central University, was organized in
Memphis January &c, 1872. Meetings of
the board were held at Nashville, May 8,
1872; at Iuka, Mississippi, August II,
1872, and in Brownsville January l6, 1873,
at which time the munifcent donation by
Commodore Vanderbilt of $500,O00 was
first made known, and in honor of his
liberal gift the name was Immediately
changed from Central University to
that of Vanderbilt University. When
the board met in Memphis, January Il,
1874, charter was obtained, and at the
same time the various departments Of the
university were ordained. At the meet
ing held at Nashville April 20, 1874, Mr.
Vanderbilt presented the board with an
additional 100000. In a little over
year Rev. R. A. Young has secured, in
addition to the endowment fund contribu
ted by Commodore Vanderbilt, nearly
5000 0. The remarkable success with
which the enterprise has been pushed
forward is owing to the IA t that the same
men who took it in charge as the Execu-
tive Committee, from it's very incipiency.
have continued steadily to follow out the
plans mapped out. They have had but
one object in view-the final and COM
plete success of the undertaking. and have
worked as one man to attain the end.
The following gentlemen are those into
whose hands the important measure was
entrusted, and the, are all thoroug h-g0ing
and competent mon. Bishop h. N. Nc
Tyeire, Rev. DR.. r. A. Young, Rev. D. c.
Kelley, Hon. E. H. East; and Col. d. T.
Reynolds.
Bishop McTyeire presided at the first
convention at which the subject of a uni.
versity was preached, and DR.. Young was
the secretary, which positions they now
occupy.

A GENTLxMAN named TaIley, recently
left his home in Lawrence county, Tenn,
and started toward Nashville. When he
had gotten some twenty or thirty miles
from home he was overtaken by one OF his
neighbors, named Hubbard, who made q
fierce attach upon him, and the public
highway became the scene Of terrific
conflict between the two, which lasted I'M
til passer by rushed in and separated
the conhicters. The affair is involved in
some mystery. Nobody can imagine why
Mr.. Hubbard should have followed and
fought Mr.. Talley. 1t was certainly q
very eccentric freak on his part, and it is
not at all strange that people should won
der what could have put it into his head.
1t is hardly worth while to guess ct the
cause of his remarkable conduct, but Mr..
Talley, the night he left home, had borrow
ed Mrs Hubbard for the trip, and had her
along when oYertaken, and it isnot impos-
sible, we should think, that this fact. un>
important as it may seem, may have
been, TO some extent, the cause OF Mr..
Hubbard singular proceeding.

elves in getting the best and most improved
Implement of husbandry. ''Carnes'' Clipper
Iarrow and CIod crushers comes in the mich
oltime. 1t is conceded by some of the best
aTmers Williamson and Maury Counties
that it is a success as a labor saving imple-
"ent. For putting in small grain after the
round is broke it has no equal, trash not
being in the way. There is nothing that will
,hoke it but wet dirt. For preparing meadows
md lawns it is unsurpassed. Bleak the ground
then this harrow will leave it in better con-
dition than three times plouEhing the same
!an1. 1t is evident to every farmer that he
can 4 make much of a crop with half of his
est soil lying in clods which can easily be
pulverized with this harrow whether moist
or dry. Hence the necessity of using IT IN the

Special TO the LEADER.
RED CLOUD AGENCY.

ANA@D CLCND -AHA@-NS
Sept, 18th, 1875.
We are still upon the ragged edge Of
uncertainty in relation to a successful
termination Of the Indian Council.
The Indians have been pulling against
each other in reference to the place of
holding it. Red Cloud wants it here,
and Spotted Tail wants it held on
Shadron Creek about half way be-
tween the two agencies. Yesterday
the Commissioners selected Council
grounds near the mouth of White
Clay river, about six miles from this
agency; and it is now expected that
the Council will begin tomorrow
Saturday morning; and that it will
continue for a week or ten days.
The Indians seem to be well dis
pdeed towards treating for the sale Of
the desired country, and it looks now
as If the success of the negotiations
depended entirely upon :he Commits
sion, and the temper, firmness and
fairness with which they make their
propositions. Those best acquainted
with the Indians do not agree in opin-
ion as to the probable result of the ne
gotiations but the general opinion is
that success or failure rests entirely
with the Commission.
Delegations are present from the
following agencies on or near the Mis-
souri, River. Cheyenne River, Stand
ing Rock, Santee, Camp Thompson,
or Crow Creek, Yancton, Lower
Brule. The two agencies of Red
Clond and Spotted Tail are well rep
resented, as are many Of the Sioux
bands in the Powder River country.
The Cheyennes and Arrapahoe tribes
are also represented. 1t is estimated
that there are NOW within fifteen
miles of this agency from 10000 to 25,-
600 Indians encamped. The Missouri
River Indians are anxious to have the
Council proceeded with speedily, in
order that they may return home be-
fore the bad weather sets in.
Major Stanton left this morning for
the military post at Spotted Tail. ID.

Washington, Sept. 2l.-Charles G.
Fisher, late Assistant U. S. Attorney,
who was arrested late last night
on the charge of stealing the appeal
bonds and papers in forty district
cases which had been appealed from
the Police Court to the Criminal Court,
waived examination this forenoon,
and was held to answer before the
grand jury, now in session. The po-
lice discoved not only the papers
charged to have been stolen but an
additional number of equal impor-
tance. Fisher had placed them in the
possession of another party, from
whom they were obtained. The OBJ
ject was to realize money on them.
The Revised Statutes provides as pun
ishment for such offences, fine OF
$1,000 or hard labor for three years, or
both, in the discretion of the Court.
The accused is the son of Judge Fisher,
late U. S. Attorney for the District OF
Columbia.
