The Transit of Vulcan, the New
Planet.

\ few days ago Urban Leverrier, the great
French astronomer, announced that the
planet Vulcan would pass between the earth
and the sun on the ID or Sd of October. The
ma jority Of astronomers disbe4ieved the ex-
iStence of such planet, mono of them hav-
ing ever seen it, aud even those who speak
Of this fiery orb do so in terms of hesitation,
as though it were mythical star. The au-
thority Of a man so eminent as Leverrier,
whose famous prediction of the discovery of
Neptune has immortalzed his name, will
doubtless go far to establish a belief in the
existence of the celestial body in question,
even though the predicted transit be not
observable for it is quite possible that bad
weather may interfere with the observations
that the transit may occur while Europe
and America are in the slumbers of night,
or that the planet may 60 by little to the
north or the south Of tie sun. The chances
are, however,t that the transit will take place
as foretold and that observations of the
same will be made from hundred stations
on that portion of the earth which will be
turned toward the sun during the eventful
period. Should it be night over Europe and
America, it will be day throughout eastern
Russia, Asia and the isles Of the Pacific ocean,
and vice versa, so that if the transit takes
place at all it will be scanned from observa-
tories in some quarter of the earth. For
this reason the astronomers and mathemati-
clans throughout the globe are by this time
making ready for the great day, and the
scientific world is on the tiptoe of expecta-
tion to sec the young planet ushered into
light.

The silver Commission.
From the N. Y. Herald

The Silver Commission has completed its
number by the selection OF three ''experts"
provided for by Congress. The Commits
sioners have, of course, opinions of their
own, and SO have the "exparts," AMI they
may be arranged thus Senator Jones and
Bogy, Representative Bland and Experts
Dix and Groesbeck are silver men Senator
Bou well and Expert Nourse are greenback
men; Representative Willard is an inquirer,
not having made up his mind, and Repre-
sentative Gibson is a gold man. 1t will be
seen that silver is very strong in the COM
mission and gold very weak. The public
will be surprised, by the way, to learn that
General Dix and Mr.. Groesbeck are experts
on the question Of the use of silver as cur
rency. The inquiries of the committee will
be prosecuted here, and they have authority
to ask the opinion of other experts, if they
can find any. The question which will
trouble them most will be on what terms
to readmit silver to general circulation.
Some of the members of the commission are
said to believe that it ought to form the
basis of all paper issues, but the rate or
value at which iJ shall circulate or be used
to guarantee circulation is what they will
be puzzled to determine, unless, indeed they
accept Mr.. Bland's view, that the actual
price of silver in the market has no more to
do with the quantity of silver which shall
go 10 dollar than the price of printing
paper has to do with the figures on green
back

NEW YORK, Sept. 2S.-Stadler & Co.,
clothiers, who failed some time ago, have
settled at IS cents on the dollar.
Annual court of inquiry will be convened
at this place to-day, to Investigate the dis
cipline on board the L. S. Steamer Alaska,
which has just returned from European
cruise, under the command of Commander
Alex. A. Semmes. This officer was Court
mar.ialled in October 1871, and suspended
for three years for oppressive and inhumane
conduct, and the inhiction of cruel and un-
lawful punishment during the last cruise Of
the Alaska, she struck rock at cape Pal
mos, on the coast of Liberia, and also struck
on Nantucket Shoals 1t is also alleged
that the vessel was insuiliciently provision
ed, and that the the crew were badly
treated by the Commander.
The charges have been preferred against
Capt. W. R. Brown, of the Marine Corps,
for disrespect to Capt. Semmes against
Lieut.. Commander Felix Curley, for ineom-
potency, and also against Surgeon Bradley,
all of who will be tried by Court Martial.

The Irish Rife Team at the Capital

By Associated Press. -rg--.'r
WASHINGTON, Sept. 27-At meeting OF
the Irish citizens Of this city, held last eve
ming to complete the arrangements for
awarding gold media, to the member of
the Irish rifle team making the best score,
it was saidthat rumor had been circulated
that some of the team had been on juries
to convict Fenian prisoners in Dublin, but
this rumor was denied on the authority of
Major Leech of the Irish team. A resolu-
tion was offered declaring that number of
Irish citizens of Washington are opposed to
the use Of the Irish name in the reception
of the so-called Irish team, ard requesting
the gentlemen interested in getting up the
trophy to be presented to the best shot in
that team to use their own names, and not
that of the Irish residents of Washing
ton.' s'' '-''-
The resolution caused some excitement
especially when the mover declared that be
was victim Of British tyranny, having
been con6nedir Kilmainhs N and Cork jails
for seven months during the Feniau trou-
bles; that he was an American citizen when
arrested, and knew OF his own personal
knowledge that two of the present Irish
team were on juries that sent 1rish-Ameri-
can citizens TO British prisons,
This resolution was rejected, and one was
adopted directing the Committee on Prizes
to draft suitable resolutions, expressing the
gratitude of the meeting of Irish American
citizens of the capital of the United States
to Major Leech, Captain of the Irish team,
in being instrumental in bringing about the
pleasant relations that exist to-day between
ireland and America.

The white slaves.

lEram N,-Y.sun of Sept. 25.]
The case of three juvenile acrobats Joseph
Dunutue. aged fourteen; 5ohn Ellis, aged
nine; and Alfred Ellis, aged seven years,
was brought up again before Judge West
brook in OhaMbers-yestesday morning.
Messrs. VIM. Van Wyck, Samuel Grosser,
and VIM. Z. Raymond appeared as counsel
for Leon, who claims to be the master OF
the boys; and Messrs. J.. H. pelafeld and
superintendent jenkins for the Society for
Prevention of Cruelty to Children.
After argument between counsel as to
whether there were any matters of fact to
lie heard, the Judge decided that there were.
One of the important, questions is whether
Recorder Taylor of Poughkeepsie had any
right to arrest the children and turn the m
over to the society.
At P. NJ. the examination on reference
was begun before Counsellor William
Sinclair.
The three boys, bright, healthy-looking
little fellows, were present
Leon, the gymnast, was put upon the
stand. He gave his real name as Alfred
Smith. He became possessed of the Dono-
hue boy in 1871. He had been pleased with
the boys appearance, and the father had
bound the child to him for seven years to
learn the acrobat business. He,was to pro-
vide for the boy and return him at the end
of that time. He paid nothing for the boy.
The father had since died, but the mother
was living and able to support her son
He sent the boy to school for three months
in the winter, ana treated him as if he was
his own child. He had been an acrobat for
eighteen years, had served an apprentice
ship to become one, and did not consider
the business dangerous. The boy only per-
formed on the ground. The business was
a profitable one. He was paid S55 aweek
for himself and boys.
The Ellis boys had been apprenticed to
him for five years by their father in London.
The father was a professional acrobat and
well known to Leon. The indehture was
here produced. 20" r'o = ..7'' -
The two boys performed on the ground
and in the trapeze. A sheet was always
held under the tfapeze by fifteen men, SO
that no injury would result in case of fall.
The boys had fallen several times, but were
not injured. At the finish of their perfer-
mance they always fell into the sheet 10
show the spectators that there was no dan
ger. He paid S5 year for each boy merely
10 bind the agreement. He had never
; heard of boys being killed by fall.
Mr., 'Leon'' Smith dropped his chs
promiscuously. Occasionally he became
wrsthy, ard snapped the referee and law
yers up sharply.
I The examination was adjourned unit
Saturday at 10 A. II.

LONDON, Sept. 28-A 'deputataon. repre-
senting the Protestant Missionary ana bi,
bio Societies had an interview with Ear
Derby to-day in relation to into!erant regu-
lations of the Spanish government. Earl
Derby after pointing out the difficulties IN
which the Spanish government is placed oy
the strength of the clerical party, and the
yasueDess of the wording Of the article OF
the Constitution relative to religious toiera-
tion said, 'tNothing IN the article, however,
iustifies the closing of Protestant schools,
and do not think the government Will so
interpret it," Probably many cases OF
hardship are due to the over zeal OF subor-
dinate officials. think with regard to acts
of intolerance which are clearly not
santioned by the federation clause OF the
Constitution, that when the Costcs has 1or-
mally proclaimed freedom of worship SUB
ject to a certain limitation, there can be
no question that we have right to interfere
If their promise is violated, but a more
difficult case is when the question at issue is
the proper construction of the law.
personallya have no doubt that 1t is an
exceedingly forced and strained construction
of the law to prohibit an external maniles-
tation singing in church or worshippins
with the doors open so that passers by may
look in. I think we have right to claim
that the law should not be CON
strued unfavorable to the rights
of foreigners in Spain, because they un
doubtedly have been encouraged to settle
there upon the understanding that thel
should be free from this kind of annoy
ance. suggest that where those effecte'
think 1t worth while to demonstrate, the
