ROME, June 2S.-The pleadings in the Lam
hertini-Autonrlli wi11-case have been closed, and
the Supreme Court is preparing the sentence
conformably with Acknowledgement Pascale's
arguments yesterday:
First-There is no written evidence to prove
that the Countess Lambertini is the daughter
Of Cardinal Antonelli-
Second-lf she is really the daughter Of the
Cardinal, she would be, according to canon law,
a sacrilegious child; that is to say, children OF
priests had not eyen the right to claim parent
age
1hird--It would be immoral for her to
abandon legitimate social position to become
Mcgiuate for mercenary purposes.
Advocate Mancini pleaded in behalf OF the
Countess, and Bachetroni for the brothers Of
Cardinal Antoneli.
Countess Lambertini gained her suit before
the civil tribunal. She lost it before the Court
OF Appeals, aud bss I',sE again in the Supreme
Court. She is now condemned in costs 100000
lure {aoout $235,000}. Her part of the Cardinals
inheritance would have been 1900, 0o0 lire.

Tho Exercises at the Lake Bluff Grounds

Tho Exercises at the Lake Bluff Grounds
| Yesterday.
The anomalous life at Lake Bluffs began yes
| terday Under rather unfavorable circumstance,
The severe rains OF the preceding day and night
had soaked the ground, and had covered the
long grass and foliage with elobules of moisture,
which made morning promenade anything but
pleasant. The air was dark and heavy, and per-
Yaded With chillness suggestion of rheumatism
and ague. There were few people on the
grounds to be affected by this permcatfng un-
pleasautuess, and these sat dumpisllly in their
cottages, not caring to take the chances
OF a premature decline by soak
ing their feet in walking about in
the grass, which no one has taken the trouble to
cut cren within the inclosura Of the tents.
There wasn't bit OF sunshine before IL O'Clock,
and the leaves OF the trees had scarcely ceased
dripping by TINT time. Taken altogether, the
appearance OF the cncampment yesterday morn
ing mas dreary in the extreme, and for time
threatened to break the back Of the romantic
enthusiasm Of the apostles Of nature who came
from their comfortable city homes to be chawed
up by merccss mosquitoes, bitten By bugs and
spiders, and to be deprived OF the Thousand and
one little conveniences which one does not ap-
preciate until one tries barbariclife at Lake Bluff.

who have been holding their conference here for
the past few days, have had water enough, dur
ing their stay, to satisfy the most rabid among
them. Last night when a minister, wandering
about in the wet and darkness for heh an hour
to get his wife drink Of water before retiring,
fell over tent rope on returning, skinned his
shins, spilled the water, and found himself
spraw1ing around in the mud, there was an
epoch OF impressive silence as bis wife picked
the leaves and gravel out Of his
hair, scraped the soil from his
clothing and soothed his 1acerated feelings with
few soft words OF sympathy. But then, every
thing in life worth having Is worth making sac
rifces for, aud who would not make tremendous
facrificcs for few tranquil days in the lcaty
woods, where one's soul can commune with
Nature in her various forms, and listen to tenn
perance orations1
The exercises yesterday took place under the
auspices Of the State Temrerance Reform Club,
representatives from various temperance organ
izatious being present.
At II o'clock Mr. CHAMPION made g brief ad-
dress, giving history Of the organization Of the
Club, aud explaining its scope and purpose He
