! JAMES GORDON BENNETT.-TheN New
York correspondent of the Chicago
Tribune says: The squibs discharged
| at James Gordon Bennett on account
| of his lightning-express trip to Ottawa
and the failure to attend Lord Duffer-
ms ball, would make good-sized
volume. The facts appear to be that
| the trip was planned without reference
to the ball, merely as pleasure ex-
cursion, and that an invitation was
extended to the party to attend. The
BoheIHians, however, are making it
lively for young Bennett, and burles-
ques on his magnificent schemes and
OUTLAWS of money for personal show
are the order of the day. In the mean

Murder Trial In Virginia.

The trial of Peter Larkin, charged
with the murder OF Corcoran on the 4th
OF last August, is in progress before the
First District Court in Virginia. The
Gold Hill News of last evening says all
of the witnesses who have been examined
thus far. with the exception of the wo.
man Nellie Sayers, have confirmed their
testimony as given before the Coroner OF
the time of the inquest. The woman
then swore that she did not see Larkin
fire the fatal shot, and there is no doubt
intimidation was used, causing her to
perjure herself at that time. Soon after
the examination was concluded. the wo-
man Savers entered the Office of Robert
Fl. Lindsay in terrible state of excite.
ment and trepidation. Going up to the
desk. weeping and wringing her hands,
she said:
'Oh, Mr.. Lindsay, they're after me:
they re- after me! l swore to lie before
the Coroner, and now they say if go
into Court and tell the truth l will be
sent to the penitentiary for perjury"
Nellie was assured of the powerless-
ness of her enemies to send her to the
State Prison. no matter which way her
testimony was given, and becoming
more calm she said she had been per-
suaded to testify as she did. but that it
hurt her soul; she could not sleep at
night; the ghost OF Corcoran came and
stood by her bed; she was driven wild
and could no. stand it any longer: she
did see Larkin shoot Corcoran. She
said she had confessed to her Father
and now wanted to make it all right be-
fore the Courts. This she did by swear
ing that her former testimony was false.
The fac: Of the woman's statements con-
t,icting will give cause for doubt in the
minds of many. The case promises to
be long and of considerable interest.

The EsNERALDA STAGE ROBBERS
Selected news items hitherto published
In the APPEAL, have informed our
readers that seven-eighths of the plum
der of the robbers of the stage between
Relleville and Aurora had been re-
covered. The robbers took eight bars
of bullion OF the stage, and the fact
was known here last Saturday that
seven of the bars had been recaptured.
The same trail on which the stolen
bars were found was followed up until
the three masked men at the time of
the robbery, were overtaken and cap
tured. Deputy Sheriff James Wales
brought them all into Aurora on the
night of the 18th. They proved to be
one white man, one Chileno and one
Mexican. No names or description of
the parties was given with the letter
TO H. F. Rice, 10 whom the facts we
have given above, were communicated.
A postscript, however, adds that one
of the robbers had confessed and was
about to go out with an officer and re-
veal the whereabouts of the other bar
OF bullion.
IN Justice Witherell's Court, yester-
day, civil suit in which the parties
litigant were Cinnamon, was tried by
Jury. Two Cinnamon were leaving
Virginia on their way to China when
they were taken off the railroad train
at Carson and suit brought for the re-
covery of $500 alleged to be due from
them on promissory note. BY their
verdict for defendants the jury in effect
decided that the note was forgery.
We see by our Storey county ex-
changes that the work of rebuilding

,Ilenced soon. The house will not be
ready for the reception of guests be-
fore September or October. s. A.

An English writer declares laughter
to be an absurd and uncomfortable
habit. He would have nothing more
hearty than smile. His opinion OF
the origin of laughter is that it re-
suited from the practice of tickling
babies, which practice has made it a

human race. Such ideas are laugh

SUNDAY AND THE CENTENNIAL. - The
managers of the Centennial Exhibition
are still fighting desperately over the
Sunday question. The issue is. as to
whether the buildings shall be open to
the public on Sunday. The Sabbatari.
ans, who hold it mortal sin to do any
work or indulge in any recreation on
Sunday, but who nevertheless love hot
Sunday dinners and are regularly driven
to church on the day of rest, sturdily
oppose the proposal to permit Sunday
exhibition at the Centennial. But the
fact is, we have invited all the world to
our national Centennial show: and We
have invited them freely without regard
to race, nation, or religion. We have
invited people who celebrate Friday as
their holy day, people who make Satur-
day their Sunday. and people who take
their weekly rest on Tuesday. These
people are our guests. To undertake to
atfront their convictions-or their preju-
dices, if we choose so to designate them
would be ill-mannered and boorish.
We have asked all the world to come
and see US, and more than nine-tenths
Of the world either disregard Sunday al
together or make it q holiday. Even in

Scotland, small part Of England and
the United States. the established usuage
is to regard Sunday as day of recrea-
ton and enjoyment.-(S. F. Chronicle.

The Presbyterian Festival.

Notwithstanding the very Indictment
weather. the Presbyterian Festival and
Concer, was well attended last night.
The musical exercises were very cleverly
rendered, from the opening chorus to
the "J..rk which was substituted for
the Chorus and Echo At the end.
Mrs. Hopkins sans Youth 10y the
Brook" with most excellent effect. That
lady is rapidly winning for herself a
famous name as vocalist. Robin,
tell Kitty I'm coming. was splendidly
rendered by Messrs. Mason. Scoville,
Hatch and Mrs. Bender. Little Lille
Swift's recitation was the brightest and
cutest and sweetest thing Of the even
ing. Mr.. Lowenstein's solo was mu-
steal gem, of course. The bevy of little
girls, Lille Swift, Mamie ellison, Allie
George and Annie Kaiser, gave us kit
tie and Mousie' in fine style, and
brought down the house. The Lark"
finished this brief concert, which might
well have been made longer. Now we
are in honor bound to say that this
Presbyterian Festival was not at all sol
emn OF churchv or xanctimonlOus. On
the contrary, it was very cheerful, Ell
iovable and bright. There were Catho-
I lies aud Jews. Metho9ists and Episco-
palians. Baptists and. for aught We
know Normous, there-all as happy and
free as il there was no such IL thing as
sectarianism or Calvinistic creeis or
ANYTHING Of the sort in the world. We
acknowledge a very warm and hearty
invitation to attend Centennial supper

lavish hands by the ladies'. on the stage.

glory o. centennial majesty, was dish
of baked beans, succulent. yielding and
rich. What need be said OF the smaller
accessories after this? Were We not
signally honored at being invited to such
q repast, in such company The very
excellent lady who saved that seat for
US and excused our exhausted not ex-

hearty thanks for her graceful polite

informal manner; to tender the express
sion of our most distinguished consider
alton to the ladies and gentlemen who
graced that centennial board and i'll
whose faces the soothing serenity of that
