JACOB CoHN's FREK-LovK PRoPENsI-
xrRs.-A case which has created consid-
erable scaudalTwas, on trial to-day an
the Nineteenth District Court, with
closed doors. Mrs. Maynard, lady
who for a long time has been engaged
in keeping respectable lodging house
on Sacramento street, sues one Jacob
Oohn and his alleged mistress, Eliza
beth Ogden, for iniuring the furniture
and greatly damaging the reputation of
her house. Her story is set forth in the
complaint as folleWs. On the 21st of
January, 1875, Cohen and Miss Ogden
came to her house and enquired for
rooms. They were shown them, and
the result was the hiring of an elegantly
furnished suite by Miss Ogden at SS5
per month, while Jacob, being a man of
moderate tastes. contented himself with
a single room, at S15 per month. They
represented themselves to the worthy
lady as respectable people, and nothing
unusual occurred until the first Of
March, when Mrs. Maynard discovered
that they were much more intimately
connected than she had supposed, al
though they had hired separate apart
merits. The boarders also discovered
the facts and stampeded, and the horri-
fed lady gave her free.loving boarders
an immediate notice to quit. This they
refused to do, owing to the condition
of Miss Ogden, who was enciente. Two
weeks afterward. Cohn had an abortion,
It is alleged, produced on his mistress,
and Is the most different Of the board
efs could not stand this, the last one
left, and the lodging house, which had
hitherto held only the most respectable
Of occupants and borne a most spotless
name, was now under cloud. For the
double injury to reputation and fufni-
ture caused by the icentious practices
Of the defendants, suit is brought for
SIC, 900 damages. .-Ex.

Coon MANNERs.-A good anecdote is
told Of Lord Palmeston, which cannot
be reprinted too often for the benefit of
hotel clerks, car conductors and other
public servants. A railroad watchman
saw Lord Palmeston smoking his cioar
at the end Of the station. The venera-
BILE statesman was in deep thought and
did not know that he was violating the
rules, and when the watchman told him
he was, he did not hear him, upon
which the watchman pulled the cigar
out Of the old mans mouth and threw
Il into the track. The train came DASH
ing by directly afterward, and Just as
Palmerston was getting in, q brother
workman remarked, "There goes the
old chief Of the cabinet r. The watch
man, frightened to death, rushed up TO
London the next day. forced his way
into the Premiere presence, and begged
his pardon. $50, sir, was the reply.
you would not have been 30 rude to me
IN obedience 10 your orders il had
bean other than ami You are q snob.
and 4 I treated you as you deserve, /
would have you removed I" We repeat
the moral, that politeness is the best
and cheapest currency in the world, but
to be OF any value il must be univer-
sal, respecting rich and poor alike.

NEUROLOGICAL PHENOMENA.
Revelations which AstOund Ordinary
People Secrets brought 10 Light, and
Disease MyKterIOuHIy Cured.

DAhtsahc 1ANhteFlOuAiy cured.
Whenever the marvellous is an integral ele-
ment of any profession, skeptcism is certain to
be active. This has been a Characteristic of the
world in all ages, and is likely to continue so
throughout all time. If people would only
have the justice and independence to investi-
gate subjects with which they are not acquaint-
ed, and withhold their opinions until they are
sufficiently informed to judge intelligently, eL
cdthedrd assertions which now come SO glibiy
from ignOramuses and nincompoOps would not
be half so frequent, and the Mysteries of nature
and science would be far better understood than
at present. In regard, for instance, to clairYoy-
ance and the gift of healing as claimed by DR..
Percy, whose rooms at 206 Kearny street, are
daily crowded, ninety per cent of the people
who refuse to believe in his extraordinary pow
ers are no more qualified to Judge in the mat
ter than if they we're called upon to square the
circle or solve the problem of perpetual motion.
That, in spite Of what skeptics may say to the
contrary, DR.. Percy is able to correctly read the
past, present and future, give advice to avert
coming evils, unravel secrets far beyond the ken
Of ordinary men, locate diseases without asking,
questions, and effect remarkable cures without
the aid Of medicine, has been so often demon
strated by him since his arrival in this city, that
only those who are maliciously antagonistic,
will presume to question the truthfulness Of his
representations. Numerous ladies and gentle
men who have called upon him have been utter
ly astonished at the way in which he has lifted
the vail from the past, and great many inva-
lids have Immediately felt the benefits Of his
peculiar treatment. In DR.. Percy's hands ma
GEOLOGY is . wonderful power with the most
astonishing results, as all who have consulted
him well know.

War as it Was and as IT Is.

The following is an extract from
an address read before the Yale law
school Some two thousand years be-
fore Christ we read that certain king.
one Of the kings of those days-the head
score and ten kings, having their
thumbs and great toes cut off, gathered
their meat under my table" Whenthe
men of Judah made this royal mutila-
tor captive, according to the received
ls.c teLiOniS of the age, they cut off his
thumbs and great toes, cast him into
dungeon at Jerusalem, and left him to
die of hunger. When Nebuchadnezzer
| took jerusalem he slew the sons of
King Zedekiah before his face, carried
him to Babylon, put out both his eyes
and left him to end his days in prison.
At the close of the long Jugurthine war
Marius brought Jugurtha to Rome, and
IN accordance with the established usage
OF the Roman triumph, chained to his
chariot wheels this deposed king, this
gallant soldier, dragged him in triumph
through the streets, amid the insults of
the populace, and when he turned his
chariot from the forum to ascend the
hPAlOAy A4C uACudlllCu buo royal
fromithe chariot wheel, cast him nearly
naked into a dungeon, where he was
not strangled until he had contended
six days with famine. When Carthage
was taken it was blotted from the map
of nations, its past destroyed, its ships
burned, and its inhabitants sold as
slaves. The campaign against Corinth
ended in the extinction of that luxurious
city and the enslavement of its inhabit-
ants. The curse which Jushua pro-
nounced against the man who should
presume to rebuild Jericho: Cursed
be the man who shall rise up and. re-
build this city Jericho He shall lay
the foundation thereof in his first born,
and in his yeuH9est Son he shall set up
the gates of it, ;" was but the expression
OF the common sentiment-the common
law of ancient times; at the height of
Greek and Roman civilization, after
every battle, every man, woman, and
child-every human being not slain
became an exile or slave. "A campaign
usually ended in the destruction of
city; war in an extinct nationality.
Let US skip over two thousand years
to our present civilization. The nine
teenth century saw all Europe under
arms, from Siberia to Archangel, from
the Atlantic to(Yistuia; ships battered
each other to pieces in every sea. When
these wars closed, by treaty of peace,
some boundaries were altered, some
dynasties were changed, but it is not
necessary to say that all prisoners were
released and no property destroyed, for
such is the settled law Of Christendom.
And when the allies took Paris by siege
each Cossack paid for cup Of coffee
handed him by the French waiter, and
the publicists and morRlists1of Europe
got angry in discussing the refined
question whether the allies had right
under the law Of nations, to restore to
the museums and galleries Of Italy and
Holland the pictures and statutes that
Napoleon had taken from them as tro-
phies of war.

CEN JOSEPH ROOHER'S vIEH-S ONTHE
SOUTHERN QUESTION.

The war has now been over more than
eleven years, and but little progress has
been made ia the settlement OF the issues
which it entailed. Designing men, both
North and South, seem to make 1t the
work of their life to keep alive the heart
burniDgs and bitterness epgeDdered by the
war but the great mass of the people of
the patton believe these arrangements
should have terminated long ago, as they
no doubt wouid, if President Lincoln'e life

of the country should be established at

truthfulness of every statement made by

Thus writes Gen. Hooker who was one
of the hardest fighters and most gallant
generals in the Federal army. He certainly
is entitled to speak, for from the early
summer of 'Gl till the summer of '65, he
proved his loyalty by always being in the
front, at one time in chief command of the
Federal army of the Potomac. OF course,

On the 18th inst, Festival Of the Purity o.
the Blessed Virgin, a most interesting cere-
mony took place in the Church of ST. Paul,
Vicksbarg, Miss Early in the morning a
large con gregatiou flied the church, and at :!
o'clock Right Rev. William II. Elder, Bishop
OF Natchez entered by the front door, the braes
band of st. Paul's playing their most solemn
and choicest pieces. His Lordship wss ASST sted
by Father B ohmert, of Vicksburg, and Father
Qaelard, Of Lake Providence, as Deacon and
Sub-Deacon, aud Father NcManus, of Vicks-
burg Master of Ceremonies. The young
candidate for the Priesthood, Rev. Ceestin
Mshe of the Diocese of Natcbi:oches, was pre-
sen.ed By Very Rev. L. Eaaut, of Moaros
acting AIchdeacop.
The interest of the occasion was heightened
by the fact that this the first time that
the impressive Ceremony of Ordination ever
occurred in Vicksburs. beautiful discourse,
explanatory of the ceremony, was preached by
the Bishop. who the same evening delivered an
eloquent lecture Temperance.
Monday, Father Enant, accompanied by his
young fellow priest and Fathers Qoelard and
Bohmert, returned 10 Monroe, where grand
preparations had been made for the cele bratiou,
by Father Maize, of his First Mass. Father
Mahe was received with enthusiasm by his
many friends who, for the past twelve month s.
had been witnesses and admirers of his piesy
and humility as we'll as of his great zeal in the
discharge of his duties as student and deacon.
On the morning OF the 18th, at o'clock, the
procession leading the young priest to the
altar OF ST. Matthew's Church, Monroe, left the
priests residence and entered the sanctuary
amidst the joyous peal of the organ. After the

that is to say, about fifty strong, and elected
Professor HeTzDg, of Often, Old Catholic
Bishop of the Swiss Confederscy. Within the
last few days this apostste was ''consecrsted"
by DR.. Reipkeps, the Bishop of the German Old
Catholics. The ceremony took place at Rheir-
felden, small town CD the German frontier
1t expected that the Jansenist bishop
Heykamp, of Utrecht, would be present at the
proceedings, but at the last hour he sent word
that he did not care to come. Two O.d Cath.
Ollie priests assisted the consecrator, AID the
public who witnessed the act consisted of ex-
actly four persons, viz, two men and two wo-
men. Throughout Switzerland the proceed
iugs alluded to are looked upon as q despicable
farce; and even the Radical Government OF
the Canton of st. Gall have refused to recog-
nize the new "bishop," because out of the
100 900 Catholics Of the Canton, not one u bs
