A Curious case.

BosToN, April 5.-Suit begun to recover
$1,000 damages from Rev. John II. Glen
ming and Archbishop Williams, of this
diocese, brought by tho parents of Lizzie
Cannon. In 1879 the girl was child of
thirteen and was attacked with nervous
disorder which had a peculiar effect upon
her mental condition. She became greatly
infatuated with some cuts in paper i'm
ages, which she thought were angels sent
by her brothers, who were decd. Father
Flemming was sent for, and took the
images and kept them, refusing to return
them. The girl fell into such paroxsysms
the physicians thought they should be re-
turned to her to enable her to recover or
keep alive, bnt both Father Glenning and
Archbishop Williams refused to consent.

The death Of the venerable Peter
Cooper, Of New York, is the loss Of a
good if not very great man. He was
man of wealth, but he employed it in
aiding his fellowmen instead Of to crush
them. Rather than live SO that his wealth
might do good after him he lived SO that
the good he did with it might live after
him. AS financier, and as a philan-
thropist he was success, but as poll
tlclan he was failure, and now that he
IS dead how Insignificant his failure as
politician as compared with his success in
the great fields named He died at the
advanced age of ninety-two years.

Excitement In London.

portance could scarcely be realized until
later honrs of the night admitted COM
plete summing up. Surprises include the
unearthing Of the most important dyn-
annie factory ever discovered; arrest of
four ruin breeders IN London and one in
Birmingham ; attempt on government
magazine in Ireland ; reception Of incen-
diary letters in London and discovery of
an astonishing and audaclous scheme
of nihillsts to blow up the czar's residence
at Moscow. The excitement over these
affairs is not confined to government
officers, but apparent on the street to
even the most casual of Observers.

Parnell Makes . Statement.

LONDON, April I'm the house of COM
mons Parnell said the recent report of an
interview with Okely and himself in the
French papers was substantially accurate.
The interesting part of the statement is
that the gentleman says the British gov.
ernment took the initiative in the Kill
mainham treaty, making overtures to
Parnell while in Jail, and also says the
statement of Lord Carliugford to the
effect that ParneIl himself made the first
overtures was inaccurate and untrue.
Mr.. Gladstone, at the conclusion Of Par
nell's avowal, endorsed the correctness OF
Carllngford's statement.
