Curious Petition of Natives in Madra
 Against SoOthsayers.
 The commissioner of police of Madras has received the following curious native petition, which was numerously signed:
 REsPEcLED SIR: We, the undersigned in. habitants of Numgumbakum, beg to bring to your notice the existence of what we serely feel an unmitigated public nuisance, and pray for it's immediate removal. Amid 8 thick, dark, shady grove, about only 100 yards from the Agra harem, and not half 8 furlong from the public road, there is Kuli temple, which, from the peculiar nature of it's situation, has been marked out as an advantageous place of soothsaying and exorcism. Here once a week (and now twice or thrice as he chooses) 8 soothsayer manages to gather about him a number of people of both sexes and various castes by his powers, of which we need hard ly say anything, of soothsaying, casting out devils, &c.
 Not to speak of the expectations practices that take place, we feel such meetings gross ly reprehensible, and extremely objectionable on the following grounds, which, however, are but few among many: That the place, aboundinR as it does with snake holes, is a very dangerous one for people to resort to in the night, the usual time when he begins his business being Il or 12 p. m. that it has been found to be resort of wicked persons with necessarily bad designs; that it being the dead of the night when the seance com- mences (and it continues the whole night and some hours in the morning,) his dread howl ings and jarring drums disturb our nights sleep and startie young children in bed; add

The First Rehearsal Of the Requiem.


 I now come to an incident in Berlioz's ''Memoirs" which he has treated rather ela- borately, which has been occasionally doubt. ed. happen to know that it was exactly as he states 1t, yet I am surprised to find it printed. It is clear that the trick which was played him was not accidental, but intention al it is so unlikely that it should be other wise, and throws glaring light on the jeal- ousy of an otherwise great conductor, that after his telling us all about it, and consult ing with another friend, we advised Berlioz to keep it out of his Memoirs ;" but people ask your advice in hopes that you will come to the same conclusion as they did, and when you do not, they follow their own inspira- tion. After were well agreed that it should not be published, he published it. The affair in few words is this: Berlioz, by fo.ce of his genius, had taken a position which vexed all the orthodox musicians, who saw in him violation of their conservative school. Moreover, finding that nobody was able perfectly to conduct his difficult scores, he had taken to conducting them himself another offense. When, therefore, the 'tRe- quiem," of which have spoken, was to be performed, and instead of Berlioz, Habeneck was intrusted with the conductors baton, Berlioz, vaguely fearing some misfortune, remained behind the chef d'orchestre, watch ing his movements closely. The moment when those terrible trumpet calls in the s'Tuba Mirum" explode from four orchestras in the four angles, waiting Tor the sign or the conductor, MT. Habeneek lowered his baton and took snuff. Without Berlioz's energet- ic nresence of mind !. ea2eat aEest md with it the whole competition was lost But seg- ing Habeneck's action he Bumped forward: "Je n'avais que mon bras, " he said, ''rnais je Petendis ct tous les orchestres m'obeirent." From thence to the end he conducted with the greatest success, and Habeneck said to him: fsWhat fright had Without you we were lost' ''Je le sais bien," said Berlioz, transpiercing him with his fixed eye, but nev- CT added another word.

Court Life Below Stairs, or London Under the
 Last of the Georges-1. Fitzgerald Molloyl
 So his useless, burdensome life, voluptuous and petty, magnificent and mean to the last, passed on. In these his last days he was friendless, and would have been alone save for his paid sycophants. All his life he had posed as 8 fine gentleman, and had found many to believe him such he had dressed himself in gaudy stuffs, had worn 5000 beads on his hat, and had invented a new buckle for his shoes; his bows outrivaled those of his French dancing master, his smiles were pronounced irresistible, his de- partment grace itself; but behind this out ward show all was false the puppet, perfect in it's dress and movements, was stuffed with bran and there was no trace of heart, honor or manhood to be found in it's composition. He lied to and deceived men he Battered and ruined women; was insincere to his friends, cajoled and cheated his creditors, hated and imposed on his ministers, and bur- dened his people in the days of commercial depression by boundless extravaganza. With prize fighters, jockeys, tailors and money lenders he was familiar but the pet ty German pride he inherited never permit ted him to be friendly with his aristocracy. Such he had been through life. and, now that his last days had come, none were found to regret his inevitable death. On the night of June 5, 1880, having paid his customary visit to the Marchioness (Lady Conyngham), he retired to bed, without feeling any symptoms of illness :; bat at o'clock he suddenly awoke in great agitation and called out for assistance. Sir Wathen Waller was soon by his bedside and raised him up. ''They have deceived me-" he whispered, fearfully, his bloated face wild from terror, his whole frame quivering then came the terrible cry, 70, God, am dying !" and with one short gasp he fell back dead

to these the general behavior on the occasion, 1 which is an outrage upon the public senti- ment of refinement and morals. On these grounds we petitioned the commissioner last year, and, on inspection by the inspector, he
 was pleased to order that the soothsaying
 should stop at 0p. m., which order, how ever, Ts grleve to say, came to be relaxed as
 soon as it was passed. We beg further to
 state that public meeting was held in the reading room premises for coneerting meas ures to put stop to the sooihsaying and ex- orcisnc nuisance, and that this petition is only the outcome of 8 resolution adopted therein.
 P. S.-An instance omitted in the. body of the petition we beg to mention here-the ill., treatment of an adult girl of about twenty years. This girl, it was given ont, was pos sessed by devil. She was cured, but a period of strict regimen must be allowed to make sure of the efectuaI cure; eight days of severe confinement in an entirely isolated room, alone and unaccompanied, three times bath, nine vessels of water each time, during which she was to come round the temple with 8 vessel each time, perfect waking all day; regimen extremely impossible and very irra- tional. The girl observed all, but whenever she was oppressed by sleep she indulged little in talk with her neighbor. On the Friday night which was the last day of the term, a woman who had also come to the temple, and who is supposed, sometimes per- m1tted, to act for the soothsayer, suddenly pulled this almost emaciated girl by the hair, and, shaking her violently (the locks of her hair still firmly grasped by the others arm,) screamed that the devil had not left the girl, and, pretending to torture the devil, inflicted excruciating pain upon the girl. Thus the devil was chastised out of the girl.
 In few hours more, Madurai Virann came boldly forth, and the girl was summoned be- fore the seothsayer, now his awful majesty. What! your father spends so much money for you; your mother exerts and almost ex- hausts her energy in drawing water for you from the well; took so much trouble to cast the devil out from you, and, silly girl you don't think of all this, but thoughtlessly wander about and chat away with your neigh bor?' The girl appealed piteously to the man (not the man surely ) Keep away my sleep that is so heavy on my eyelids, and will not do it. 'tSo audacious to talk to me 1 Hold out your hand, will your" The girl shrank back, and, using all words which no ear can hear and no tongue can utter, thrsshed her most mercilessly till her limbs became black. It is notorious fact, and too well known to require labor of proof. It being so important, it is hoped that you will not disdain for it the notice which it deserves from your hands.
