The end seems to be very near, with
Thomas Carlyle. The latest dispatches des-
cribe his condition as one OF hopeless plOs-
traton, and say that he is not expected to
live many hours.
Cadet Whttaker's trial was resumed yes
terday, and Cadet HodgsOn, who was one of
the first persons to enter Whittaker's room after
the alleged outrage had been committed, was
examined at length.
Every Charity Ball is accounted to be more
successful than its predecessor, but the ball OF
last night will easily take the first place in
The long list without dispute on any point.
Fully $500 tickets were sold before the en-
tertainment began. and not less than 1000
persons were present. The simplicity of the
decorations did not detract from the bri)liancy
of the spectacle, the gathering with its beau
4iful array of toilets being its own BEST Or

Nerth River is said to be the best since
1857. The ice is from 5 to Is incb..
thick. The dealers say ice from four.
teen to sixteen inches thick is consider
Cd the best for transport trade, and tb,.
New York companies intend to put up
stacks Office of this thickness wherever
convenient. At present there are about
o,OOO men and boys and 1,SO0 horses a,
work on the river, and an estimate
places the harvest, whom cImpleted at
2,5OO,OOO tons, and the cost of gathering
1t at S2,OO0,000. In 1873 the total ouan-
tity housed was ,408, 800 tons; in 1879.
x,Ool,5 800 tons, and last winter but 15O.-
900 tons. These 2,50O,O0O tons, which
will make this years crop, can be taken
from surface Of $500 acres, lha. is,sup-
posing the cakes to be twelve inches IN
thickness. The waste in storing and
handling Is estimated at from thirty In
nfty per cent. which would leave the
amount for actual consumption at from
1,250, 600 to 2,4z6,6 tons. During the
TWO frat weeks Of the present harvest
more ice was gathered than during the

Legislators taking time to listen to the
petition of the unfortunate people
8 who are seeking for divorce. lie is a
lawyer but has no cases other law
yers who have had cases in the court
and before the legis ature, do not
seem 70 share his opinions, since some
of these have resorted to the legisla-
ture Instead of the court. Both are
open to their choice. The legislature
may of course deny the right OF
petition to the people but it is hardly
likely to do SO. Why it is that the
unfortunate people who find them
selves badly "matched' seek the
legislature instead of the courts, is
question which the Nsus ought to be
able to elucidate. In neither modes
can publicity be escaped. The parents
and friends of these people have
rights that such "young limbs of the |
law" as the editor of the News have
no right to deny, whatever his
opinions may be of the petitioners.
IL is a fact that gentleman of com
manding influence with legislators
who held such opinions as those of the
editor of the Neos, some two years
afterward found himself interested in
one of these cases for near relative.
