George Sands Funeral.

Pans Letter 70 the London Times.
Sohznt, where Madame sand died, i
eigts E.lgmeyerz from La Ckatre, not far
from the high road leading from that little
Town 10 Chatea0roux. 1t il not, strictly
Speaking, chateau, but large country
nouse, SURROUNDED by 4 good-sized park. a
cstafalque was erected in the hall, TWO
large wreaths Of flowers lay on the coffin.
Friends were assembled in the dining room
and the garden. A few ladies, including
Madame Solange Clesinger, George Sands 6
daughter in-law, and her two little girls
were in the drawing-room. At 1890 the
coffin was taken to small church under
charge Of the priest Of the Commune of Vie,
where religious ceremony was performed
The church was too small to contain all
whom friendship had drawn together. The
service ended. the body was borne to small
country cemetery, attached to the Church
of Nohant, the resting place Of George
Sands ancestors. The priest having pro-
nounced the last prayers over the open
grave, speeches were read by two Of George
Sands oldest friends-M. Perigois and DR.
Vapet. The latter read an address sent by
Victor Hugo.

Now THAT the State Convention has
met and fixed up an old feud, which
created dissensions between the counties in
regard to delegate representation, we
thought that that part of the machinery
would run smoothly, bu: it seems not, the
trouble has begun afresh in Kent. This
time it is between the hundreds of Kent
county. Dover hundred claims that 1t is
entitled to fifteen delegates, and as it is now
they only have eleven. Mr.. Dean takes
this opportunity in a communication
which appears in another column, to re-
mind Kent of New Castle eounty's grlev-
ances, and reminds the Kent county peo-
pie that they should follow the teachings
of the bible and do unto others as they
would be done by, but Mr.. Dean should
recollect that religion and politics don't
mix any better than combination against
fairness does with wisdom, which is about
the truth of the vote on this matter in the
last Convention.

An Approaching Marriage,

[LondonLettei to theManchesi erGuardian. !
l am assured on high authority that on
June an alliance was contracted between
the Duke of Connaught and the Princess
Frederica, daughter of the ex-King of Han
over, and that vote for his Royal High
ness establishment and for settlement on
the Princess will be submitted to Parliament
before this session is ended. Such an alli-
ancc would not be unpopular in England, as
King George Is Of our blood royal, and
Prince Ernest is likely, in course Of time. to
take up his abode amongst us, and attend
to Parliamentary duties in the House of
Peers in his future capacity of Duke OF
Cumberland

COOL SPRING RESERVOIR.

Public attention should be directed, to
this great work. 1t has cost very large
sum of money, to advance it, to its present
condition. The appropriation for the re-
servoir, is exhausted, and work upon il
has ceased. In its present con-
dition. if left exposed to the wasting, and
wearing force, Of wind, frost, and rain, it
would be certainly damaged, to the amount
of at least $4,000. There have been spent
upon the work, nearly $4,000, to
put it in its present condition; less than
100000 would finish it. What kind of
economy is it, which would permit great
public improvement, to be exposed to in
jury, to the amount of 1000, when twice
that sum would finish, and perfect it for
use. When finished the city would have
marketable piece of real estate in the
site of the present basin, worth about a.
much money, as would finish the reser-
voir.
There are difficulties in the way, 1t re-
9uires twO-third vote Of Council, to tenn
porarily borrow the money to finish the
work, and in the present time member d
Council, fear to incur any further debt.
The subject has another a.pess, the ~srs

reason for not finishing the reservoir this

contemporaries state them, and let It's hear
both sides.
If it is wise, economical, and necessary
to finish the Cool Spring Reservoir, mem

The Monte Mans Paradise.

From the y, y. Sun of June 2bth.l
1t was intolerably warm at Coney Island,
yesterday, and as the day grew older the
crowd increased, and at + O'Clock every host
elrie was full of guests, and the water side
was thronged with an eyer-moying multi
tude.
A dark faced man with a black NOUS
tache and stubble beard set up his little
table in front of the Point Comfort House
and began to manipulate his cards and to
essay by plausible talk to inyeigle the IN
wary He played with queen, a deuce,
and five spot, "The queen. gentlemen,
said lie sweetly, sis your card. The other
two are mine. Tell me where the queen is
when lay the cards down, and pay you
the amount Of your bet. Don't all speak at
once" He fingered the cards so NAL
adroitly that an innocent German was at
once caught. II bet you tree dollar | tell
de gween,' said he; and he put his horny
finger upon the queen and won his money.
The next time he tried it he lost S. and
drew out with the remark, "You'm dam
tief
Other victims were added to the monte
mans string. A long, lank, lean man
stepped up and watched the shutting of the
cards. Il think can pick out the queen,"
said he. 'Bet you so you can't said the
monte man, with winning smile. The
cards were shifted hither and thither, the
stakes were put up, and the lean man won.
He tried again, and again he won. The
monte man began TO lose temper and to
upbraid the winner. "Why, gentlemen"
| remarked the lucky man, turning to the
bystanders, this games as simple as pins
Anybody can pick out the queen, if he only
| watches. When that mans back was
| turned, picked up the queen and made a
| dent in her back with my finger nail, and
| here it is" So saying, be was about to
take up card, but the monte man objected
and the lean man laughed sardonic laugh.
A green looking countryman, who had been
watching the game with open eyes, in each
Of which was speculation, stepped forward
and laid down s. bank note Said he,
| with the manner Of man who has built a
horse car and knows that it will run, ''I'll
pick out the queen: put up your money"
The monte man glared savagely at the lean
man, and placed IS note on the stand.
The countryman turned up the marked
card, and it was the deuce

lyn, in patroling the beach, found Valen-

Il ~ always kno~n tn Il ths Repub
lican party presented y candidate i Sep
tember, it must be ! man who would be :
decided improvement on Grant. The cam
didate has made his appearance, and We
must say puts the Grant picture clear in
the background. 1t might have been a
great deal better, but at the same time it is
very refreshing to have the party nominate
a ticket that does lay claim to honesty.
But this new ticket must be surrounded
with new claims to strike the sympathies Of
the people. The latest offered Is the one
thatHayes is descended from the Irish, ,and it
is supposed that great stress will elaidupon
this in the coming election to obtain pat
ronage for the party. But this is denied
by the Irish american, which paper finds
that Mr.. Hayes is native Of Connecticut,
and has>not drop Of Irish blood in his
veins, although he may have plenty OF
haye-seed in his hair. The next move
will be to turn Wheeler into Dutchman,
and if they will promise that if elected to
give all the appointments in the Cabinet to
representatives of the nationalities, a
sympathy might perhaps be created among
the foreign element Of citizens, but We
are rather inclined to think that they are
disguised as we'll as others with the Re
publican party.

IT APPEARS ridiculous, but then it is
at the same time very true, that the strong
est supporters Of the Republican party in
the South are those men, who were in the
foremost in the advocacy Of the Southern
cause. The secret Of this love of the Re
publican party is that they either hold
Office or expect to as return for this sup
port. Two beastiful specimens are Long
street and Mosby, both Of whom have sold
their decency to the love Of position. Thi,
SUPPORT is very ridiculous as its object is
very transparent.

Fenian Joy in Dublin.
I Dublin June II, Sunday correspondence
of Belfast NeWs-Letter.I

Dublin June H. Sunday correspondence
of Belfast News-Letter.J
A torchlght procession passed through
the city, to-nigt, headed by several bands,
for the purpose, it was understood, of cele-
brating the escape of the Fenian prisoners
On Grattan Bridge they burned quantity
of areworks. The bands were followed by
several thousand persons. The police did
not interfere In the absence of the police
on Grattan Bridge, they burned effigies of
Mr.. Disraei and the Duke of Cambridge,
the eifigies being set up on the parapet of
the bridge. The Prime Minister was repre-
sented as Christian Jew, with the word
"murderer" on his back, and the Duke of
Cambridge as Germanic Briton. The po-
lice seemed to be quite unaware that the
mob carried efigies with them. Two tram
cars, when attempting to move along We'll
lington Quay, were stopped by the mob and
their windows smashed. The procession
started from the front of Catharine's church,
near Thomas street, where Emmet was exc
cuted. The proceedings seemed not to be
understood by the general public.
The mob sang through the streets "God
Save Ireland"
