darkness OF the night, crept quietly to
the stern, where Tosca sat doing at the
helm, and without further ado put an
end to him. He then proceeded to an

There Is quarrel between the two
soy ereigns of Siam, and the second King
has fed for shelter to the British Consul
late at Bangkok. The second King OF
Siam, though clothed with royal rank,
is not real power in the country. He
is expected to stand aloof from active in
reference in affairs of State, and, &C.
cording to the most credible explanation
Of the existence of this dual sovereign
ty, he is only monarch in reserve, a
sort of second string to the constitu-
tional bow, ready to take the first Kings
place If the latter should die, SO that
there may be no danger of revolutionary
violence during an accidental vacancy
of the throne. The present first King of
Siam is not much more than twenty-five
years of age, and his colleague is about
thirty-four. Both porentates speak En-
glish. The cause OF the quarrel is proba-
bly, this. The young King, whose son is
only six months old, and who is sur
rounded by young advisers, being him.
self consumptive, has been forced by
these courtiers to make the second King
surrender his claims, in order to keep
their own party in power. There exists,
however, outside the two royal circles,
a great teudal family, headed by the late
Prime Minister, who, from his dislike to
the innovations, mas retired to the inue-
rior. He is engaged in plots to bring af-
fairs to deadlock, and thereby strength
en- his own influence. The plots of the
Chinese secret societies will tend fur
sAe2 70 suplioate the affair.

Rev. Walter Dunlop was once much
distressed by schism in his flock, oc-
casiored by an agitation being raised in
Dumfries on the subject of adult baptism,
a number of ,Baptists making the at
tempt to set up church there, and
this being the best means to accomplish
their object. One day, in the course OF
his sermon on the words, "How often
would [ have gathered thy children to-
gether even as a hen gathereth her
chickens under WINGS" his feeling on
the subject broke forth, and with tears
he said, 80, ma treens, ye ken hoo Pve
striven tae gle We words o. wisdom, ye
ken hoo Pve keepit We year after year
as hen covers her chickens; but dOot
after a. there's some deucks among
ye, sac mony are gain aft tae the wa
terW The effect Of these words was
electrical; they were passed from lip to
lip, and from house to house, and the
oddity of the figure somehow so fitted
the circumstances of the religious in the
town that, for that time at least, the ag-
itation came suddenly to an end, and
MIR. Dunlop aud the other ministers in
Dumfries were no more troubled with
secession from their focks.

The second>Gi ilmore Concert was, II
possible, greater success than the first.
The superior weather OF last evening,
added to the furore which the first con-
cert and its success created, brought out
an immense audience, and Pixies was
filled to overflowering with an audience
OF the first and most approciative order,
of which Mr.. Gilmore may well be proud
as an ackno oWledgment both of the ex-
celence of his organization and the con-
tidence of the intelligent public in him
and his undertakings.
The playing OF the band itself is SIM
ply grand ana beyond description. The
combination OF fifty instruments in the
hands OF the best musicians of the coun-
try can produce under the management
and direction and training of the orig
inator and manager OF the great Interna-
| tional Jubilee, is beyond the power of
description in our limited space, and
can i'll fact only be appreciated when
heard.
Miss Thursby again electrified the au-
dience last evening by her superb sing
| ing, and her clear, rich voice, with its
excellent compass and power, added TO
her native grace and beauty. ensure to
her brilliant future. Her singing elic-
| tied round after round of applause, and
she was repeatedly recalled by the en-
| thusiastic audience.
Mr.. Lefebre and Mr.. Arbuckle even
surpassed their efforts of the previous
night on the saxophone and cornet, and
have established even more fully than
ever their claims to the championship of
America in their peculiar line.
Mr.. Gilmore and his company left for
Louisville to-day, but return, we are
glad to announce; on Tuesday evening
