A cable dispatch from Paris announces the
death Of the Right Rev. Felix Antoine Dupan-
loup, Catholic Bishop of Orleans, in the sew
enty-sixth year Of his age. Few of the pre-
lates Of the Church in modern times have led
such stirring life, or exercised so great an
influence as the deceased bishop. Bishop Du-
panloup was born in Savoy, and was not nat
ural1zed as French subject until 1888 He
came TO Paris, however, when but eight Years
old, and was educated there He was ordained
priest IN 1925, and was attached to the parish
or the Assumption; in 1927 he was made con-
lessor OF the Duke Of Bordeaux, and in the
following year was given the charge of the re-
Ilglous education of the young Princes Of Or
leans. In 1881 he founded the Academy of St.
H4yacynthe, for the education Of young men.
In 1884 he preached in Notre Dame. and in
i85l ., ne was made Vicar General Of Paris.
Archbishop Affre sent him, on his accession
upon delicate and important mission to
Rome and appointed him Grand Vicar Titu
larry. In l84l he was made professor Of sacred
eloquence at the SarbOnne. He was made
Bishop Of Orleans in 1849 and since then he
has almost constantly occupied a prominent,
position in the religious politics of France.
He was a most prolific and powerful writer
and the lists OF his books and PAMPHLETS
would fill a column. In 1854 he was elected a
member Of the Academy to fill the vacancy

The Rational Game of Bluff.
IN. 7. Herald


The Western Nationals were, alter all, DIav-
ing what they would call 8 bluff game, and
scared the weakened Democrats on a very
thin hand comparison of their positive
published "ctaims" before the election and
the net result makes their movement ridic,1-
lous. The Greenback National organs claim
ed 100000 votes in Indiana and three Con-
gressmen. They cast in that State. where
they are strongest, only 10000 votes, and
with the help of the Democrats, not by their
own votes, elected one Congressman. Thev
claimed 100000 votes in Ohio and three Con-
gressmen, and they cast, as nearly as
we can tell from imperfect returns,
less than 10000 votes and elected no Con,
gressInan. They claimed q Congressman in
west Virginia, but elected none Having made
q combination with the Democ in Iowa,
they claimed four congressman but with the
help OF Democratic votes, managed to elect
only two and it is clear that if they had stood
algne they would have got none.
That is to say, they had not in Ohio and In
diana, the two States where they have the
greatest strength, third of the vote they
claimed, and if it had not been for Democratic
help they would not have elected q single
congressman anywhere It is absurd for
them to talk any longer Of great popular
movement. The tide is setting fast against
them, and they have made their largest show
ing, and that amounts to just three Demo
cratic Representatives elected by the assist
ance OF Greenback votes. That is all, and it

LONDON, Oct 1G.--The letter which the Gar

compelling Turkey to. execute her share of the
treaty Of Berlin, sets forth. In detail. the points
on which the Porte has thus far failed to fulfill
Its engagements as specified In that treaty but
1t lntimates also that the treaty of Berlin was
only explanatory Of @ supplement to the treaty
Of San Stefano. and that both must be read to-
gether. The Gar points out that the Sultan
has not yet taken any steps to comply with the
thirteenth and seventeenth articles of the treaty
Of Berlin respecting the giving of Eastern Rou-
mel1a Christian governor, named by himself,
for period OF five years. with the assent of
powers north; the eighteenth article, respect
ing arrangements ts for new judicial and 1nan-
eial administration of this province, to be pro-
mulgated by an imperial tlrman: nor the twen-

The Campaign In south Caroyrua

r, Speaking Of the Democratic campaign in
South Carolina the Charleston NeWs OF the
seventh instant says: "The canvass has been
conducted with moderation. There are speekg
OF trouble In Sumter and in williamsburg,
growing out Of the refusal Of the Radicals to
give the Democrats the right which the Dem
ocrats concede to then- the right to be heard
at every political meeting. Nothing serioug
can happen unless the Radicals try The Cain
hoy business again, and there are no restrain
ing orders from Democratic headquarters
this year. Rosewater remedies have no effect
on such rascals as Lee and SWails for
Instance. The heroic treatment Is the only
mode by which they can be cured and their
followers be set free. For the good of colored
people, as for the good Of the whites, every
Radical leader in South Carolina known to be
a knave must be .shorn of his influence and
autnorlty. Ihls IS as Indispensable to good
government, stability and concord as is hang
ing q murderer or sending a burglar to the
penltentiary. The cry Ia 1876 was Hampton
or reVolutionn And the cry now is that
every county in South Carolina must and
shall, at every hazard, be torn from the grasp
Of the Radical rogues and robbers who stiff
hold or aspire to hold office in this State"
