LONDON, Jan. 1S.-At the Mansion House
yesterday was continued the hearing of the
application for warrant against the marquis
Huntley, knight of the thistle, and former
captain of her majesty's corps of gentlemen at
arms, for obtaining e2,4S1 from Benjamin
Nichols under false pretenses. The marquis
disappeared from London in June, 1881, in
consequence of difficulties arising from racing
affairs. He has since been seen in CONSTANT
nople and Cyprus, and is now believed to be in
Russia. A warrant for his arrest is required
with view Of commencing extradition pro.
ceedings. Huntley's solicitors and agents
refuse all information concerning his where
abouts. The lord mayor ordered a further
adjournment of the application for one month,
as civil proceedings are pending against the
accused which have been instituted by another
party. Defendant is still abroad.

that when children have resided with, and
been supported by widow of a soldier, pen
sion to the children shall commence from the
date of the last payment to the widow. 1t
was resolved legal marriage mvst be proved in
order to establisha widows right to pension,
and that adulterous cohabitation shall ter
inmate the pension from date of commence

the question as to what shall consti-

proof of cohabitation as man and wife shall
be sufficient to secure payment of stopped

Col, Dudley informed the committee that he
had issued instructions for the establishment

On the subject Of reducing the examination
fee from SO to 81, Col. Dudley said in his opln-
ion it was not advisable, as the fee was already
too small to make it an inducement to any
reputable physician to be member of the
examining board.

AMUSEAIENTS.
East L7fn1le.

In spite of the cold weather large audience
assembled at the Opera House last night to
witness the revised version of "East Lynne"
as presented by Miss Ada Gray and Watkins
Fifth Avenue Combination. As presented by
this company the original drama of East
Lynne" is lost sight of to a certain extent by
a radical reconstruction of both plot and dia-
logue. On general principles the propriety of
the Encouragement must be doubted, but as the
medium by which to display the emotional
capacity of Miss Gray, it admirably serves the
purpose.
This lady appeared in The dual characters
of Lady Isabel and Madame Vine. As the for
mer, she portrays excellently the qualities of
petulant, and by turns affectionate, doubt
ing and jealous wife. Her peculiar talent for
emotional acting is, however, best developed
in the two closing acts, where as Madame
Vine she exhibits with touching effect the re-
morse and despair of mistaken folly coupled
with tender love for her devoted husband and
children.
AS Archibald Carlyle, Mr.. J. B. Browne
made consistent husband and father, and
Mr.. ]. j. Louden played the part of Sir Fran
ces Levison in both the style of villain aud
masher. Miss Corney was admirably enacted
by Mrs. s. A. Baker, her tits with Dill, Mr..
Furlong, forming the most enjoyable features
of the performance.
Miss Jessie Gordon appeared to good ad-
vantage In the character of Barbara Hare and
as Lord Severn Mr.. Furlong made the most of
his part.
Miss Gray was called before the curtain at
the ends of the third and fourth acts. Upon
the first occasion she addressed the audience
in speech, the motive of which is doubtful
and the subject matter was not entirely in
good taste. She referred to her success in
Eastern cities and alluded to a suspicion, sup
posed to prevail somewhere, that the company
was.a snap organization and not the aggrega-
ton of artistic worth it proported to be. 1t is
doubtful what construction an audience may
put on a speech thus delivered by lady actress
in justification of suspicion that had not pre-
viously been known to exist.
However, an enjoyable entertainment was
given and it will e repeated this afternoon
and tonight.

Monument to Gen. Garfield.

WASHINGTON, Jan. Ex-senator Harrison,
in behalf of the committee on military affairs,
has submitted to the senate an interesting re-
port on the bill which directs the secretary of
war to deliver to the Society of the Army of
the Cumberland number Of pieces of con-
demned bronze cannon, to aid in the erection
of statue, or monument to General Garfield.
The committee report they find on inquiry of
the secretary of war that all condemned ma
terIal of the character described in the bill
now on hand, or likely to be available for a.
long time, has already been appropriated by
act of congress to the erection of other monu-
ments to some of the illustrious
say: Your committee believe that
of the appropriations made of bronze cannon
for the erection of statues or monuments, the
material thus appropriated has seldom, if
ever, been used in casting the work. It has
been customary to sell the material or ex-
change it for other more suitable for the
work, and, while the object of the bill cannot
be accomplished by the passage of it in it's
present shape, the committee believe it is emf
nently proper aid which has so often been
given to such objects, should not be with
held in this case, so wOr-
thy of endearing remembrance
as Gen. Jas. A. Garfield: The committee be-
lleVe Inc assistance asked 1Or may DE given IN
a way not practically different from that
which has prevailed in these cases, viz: By
authorizing the secretary of war to pay over
to the proper officer of the society out of the
proceeds of sales of condemned ordnance, or
ordnance stores, the proper sum of money for
the purpose named. The committee has,
therefore, prepared the schedule of bill ap-
propriating $500 out of the proceeds of any
sales of any condemned ordnance or ordnance
stores, and recommend the passage of this
substitute

Question of Jurisdiction.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 13.-The commissioner
OF Indian affairs has official advices from In
dian agent Tufts at Muscagee, Indian terri
tory agency, in relation to the killing of Ros
Cunningham, Cherokee Indian, by N. W.
Blythe, also Cherokee and member of the
United States Indian police force The cir
cumstances under which the killing occurred
were such that the question of jurisdiction in
the case has already been raised by the Chero-
kee nation. Their representatives here have
informed the Indian office, that as their ma
ton has courts and is governed by
law, the use of any military force
such as armed United States policemen in con-
travention of existing law, is of doubtful ex-
pediency, and they therefore ask the depart
ment to defer action in the case until report
is submitted from their nation. They also in
innate in their communication the killing of
Cunningham was unjustifable, that it oc-
CURED while Blythe, as police, was not on
duty, and if such was the case, Blythe should
be held amendable to Cherokee laws, and may
be tried for murder. The matter is held under
advisement at the department.

Henry Ward 8eecher Wrhdrdws From the
Congregational Association and GIVES
HIS RedSoHs.

NEW YORK, Oct. 10.-At the au-
tumn meeting of the New York and
Brooklyn Association of COngrega-
tional churches, to-day, Rev. Henry
w. Beecher formally withdrew
from membership. He explained
that he did so because he could not
as Christian gentleman afford to
lay on anybody the responsibility
of his views, and could not afford,
especially, to put the Association in
position where it would have to
defend him.
He defined his belief at some
length, saying he held that the
whole view of God as laid down in
the Westminster confession of faith,
compared with the representation
of God as made by Christ, was as a
frightful Gorgon compared with
Apollo. 1t represents him as a
monster instead of loving Master.
He rejected it with an impulse that
touched the very foundation of his
soul. He also rejected the represen-
tations of future punishment, which
were gross and physical and made
from the sensuOus Roman school.
He believed in future punishment,
but held that suffering was not of
the body but mental, according to
the laws of moral sensibility and
affections not machine of sulphur
and fire and deluge of devils. He
also regarded the whole doctrine of
original sin as found i'm the fall of
Adam as barbaric, and the cOncep-
tion of man as yet ignorant on the
subject.

OId Time School Master.

The old time school teacher has
gone to the grave of eternity. The
teacher of to-day retains but little
of the studied peculiarities. The
old time man of public instruction
was a strong believer in the eflica-
cy of apple tree sprOut persuasion.
II student exhibited q disposition
of idleness, the old man regarded it
as a duty to 'whale" him. He was
not nearly so strict i'm discipline as
the teacher of to-day, for unlike the
more modern instructor he regarded
a correct lesson of more Importance
than strict department. The bad
young man, the leader of a rebel
lious faction, gave him great deal
of trouble, but the old time man was
always willing to take off his coat
and fight the rebelliouS scholar.
When he went to the school house
at morning and found the door
locked and the windows barred, he
knew that the bad young man had
instituted an insurrection. He spoke
kindly to the "scholars" who lin
gered around the place, and after
succeeding in opening the door he
invited them in with Il mildness of
voice which they did not expect.
When the busy hum of lessons be-
gan, and alter the submissive boy
and his meek companion had gained
permission to go after bucket of
water, the old man would look
around, single out the bad young
man and ask him why he had tried
to break up the school. The young
man, in surly mood, makes a NUT
tering reply and the master calls
him out. The young man, depend
ing on supporters who have vowed
adherence to his cause, advances
and tells the teacher that he is not
afraid, and that he has determined
to free his companions. A fight en-
sues, and the rebel, finding that his
followers have been intimidated by
the vigor of the old man, yells and
gives up the ghost of combativeness.
The old time teacher viii never
come again. A lawyer enters a
neglected cemetery and searching
around finds an old grave and gazes
with fondness upon it. The old
time school teacher sleeps in the
grave, and the lawyer was once the
bad young man.-ArkatSdaC IfuU-

THE soKe or THE CAMP.
BY BAYARD TAYLOR.


4sGiye us a song !' the soldiers cried
The outer trenches guarding,
When the heated guns OF the CAMP allied
Grew weary of bonbarding.
The d ,rk Redan, in silent scoff,
Law grim and threatening under,
And the tawny mound OF the Malakoff
No longer belched its thunder.
There was a pause guardsman said,
We storm the forts tomorrow;
Sing while we may-another day
VIII bring enough a'sorioW.
They lay along the battery's side,
Below the smoking cannon;
Brave hearts from Severn and from Clyde,
And from the banks of shannon.
They sang of love and not of fame,
Forgot was Britain's glory;
Each heart recalled a different name,
But all sang ''Annie Laurie.
Voice after voice caught up the song,
Until its tender passion
Rose like an anthem, rich and strong,
Their battle eve confession.
Dear girl, her name he dared not speak,
But tas fhe song grew louder,
Something upon the soldiers cneek
WaShel off the stains OF powder.
Beyond the Euxine's water burned
The bloody sunsets embers,
While then the Crimean valleys learned
How British loye remembers.
And once again a fire OF hell
Rainee: on the Russian quarters,
With scream of shot and burst of shell,
And believing of the mortars.
And Irish Norais eyes are dim
For singer dumb and glory;
And English Mary moufnS for him
Who sang o" Annie Laur1e.
Sleep, soldiers, still in honored rest
Your truth and Valor wearing;
The bravest are the tenderest--
The loving are caring.
