Prof. Cummings Lseture.

For tho Republican.
MEssRs. EDIToRs:-Having noticed IL
your issue of the23 d, an interesting
report of Prof. Cummings introductor.
lecture on Monday evening last, We at
tended his second discourse on Thurs
day.
The rich treat handed out TO hi
hearers was not at all unexpected Il
those who remember the entertaining
character of his former course in viii
mington, several years ago, and who
knew his stablished reputation as q
gentleman of thorough and versatile
scientific attainments.
Prof. Cummings home is in Boston
He is the author, amongst other publ.
cations, of that volume in the litera.
ture Of popular science, entitled "The
life history of our Planet" a new edi-
! tion Of which is now about issuing from
the press. He is nossmatterer, but a
savan amongst the ablest, fully and
widely appreciated, and whose dis
courses draw large and enthusiastic
audiences in New York, Brooklyn,
Philadelphia, and at present, in our
nsighboring Borough Of West Chester.
We can scarcely conceive Of other
cause for the comparatively small
though very intelligent audience that
greeted him in the lecture room Of the
Opera House last evening, than that
insufficient effort had been made to
announce the fact that such an intelec-
ual treat was at hand to be enjoyed.
Surely there is in this city enough Of
culture to encourage and sustain such
course Of we'll illustrated and impressive
lectures as Prof. G.. seems amply and
peculiarly fitted to deliver, and on that
most intensely interesting Of modern
sciences, geology, as it opens to the keen
analysis Of inductive philosophy, the
part history of the earth, through the
almost limitless cycles of time during
which it has been subjected to the
moulding and developing power Of
divine law; until, in comparatively
recent times, 1t has become fitted for
the house of tho higher forms Of life.
P. S.-We told that the practice Of
the Professor in other cities has been,
himself to furnish the several reporters
Of the Press with a brief abstract Of
each discourse upon delivery; but that
your friend, the "E. E." becomes in
dignant that he is not made the exclu-
sive recipient of such civilities, and de-
clines to do himself the honor Of
noticing the lecturer. Can this be true
of the "E. E." "and for such miserable
pretext? If true, the remarks we hear
that che is saving his strength for some
Negro Minstrel. troupe or Monkey Show"
are not undeserved.

The Norma Ball.

The way the tickets for the Norma
Social clubs ball are selling it promises

The President In Kansas.

President Hayes and party had
brilliant reception at Topeka, Kansas,

held at the Capitol building, where the
President and General Sherman made
pleasant. speeches in acknow ledgment
of the greeting given them. The Presi-
dent, Mrs. Hayes and General Sherman
spent yesterday at Fort Leavenworth as
the guests Of General Pope. They will
leave this morning for St. Joseph, Mo-,
and Springfield, Ill.

Last of Them Back From Brazil.

Mr.. P. 4. Collins and tifty-three
workmen have returned TO Philadel
phia from the site of the Madeira and
Mamore Railroad in Brazil. This
rarty includes all the hands employed
on the South American contract, ex,
cept about twelve men who were left
behind tc take care of the material on
tho ground and preserve so much OF
the road as has thus far been con-
structed. When the workmen left
San Antonia they were just about clos
ing on the fifth mile Of tae track, while
ahead of them there were three miles
of grading completed, but the labor OF
construction ceased over month ago,
and no more work will be done by the
contractors unless the decision OF the
British House of Lords relative to the
Bolivian bonds, which will be issued
for the construction Of the road, is in
favor of the present contractors. They
have expended all the capital they
had at their disposal, and not being
able to pay their employees, saw that
it was useless to proceed further with
the work. Most of the men are penni-
less, and are entirely dependent upon
the Messrs. Collins, who are behind
largely in the matter of wages.
