Mr.. HENRI WATTERsoN is out with the
second reading of his bill to push M.
Randall and his friends out Of tho Demo
cratic party. In Wow of the fact that a
bill, to become effective, must be read threo
times, it may not be out Of place to suggest
to Henri that before he issues his third pro-
nunciamento he had better mako some in
quiry as to what such men as Judge Buck
ner, of Missouri, think of his attempted
bossship. However, it is safe to say that
Mr.. Randall and his friends have very
little to fear from man whose idiosyn-
cracies lead him at the dead hour of night
to get up and walk from the Ebbit House to
Chamberlin's, clad only in his night-clothes.

The CRITIC looks ON with amazement
at tho futile efforts of Congress to solve the
financial problem-in view of the with
drawal of Government bonds-and thus de-
stroying the basis of the circulating mo-
dunn. All bills before Congress at present,
like McPherson's, Potters and others, are
confessedly only temporary expedients
The Chamber of Commerce and the Now
York Stock Exchange have been appealed
to to use their aggregated wisdom by ap-
pointing special committees to explain to
Congress the necessity of some decided ac-
tion, but it has thus far degenerated Into
hue and cry against the coinage of more
silver. THE CRITIC thinks that the trouble
lies only in the fact that we ara trying to
reverse some well-recognized National laws
and make 412 grains Of silver worth 10 per
cent. more than its current market value.
Let Congress allow the issue of currency
based on its bullion value, say 460 grains,
and it will be equal to gold the world over.
1t needs no prophet to tell us that if the
| surplus of silver should be used in that di-
rection the occupation ofthe alarmist would
be gone,

HOW Marriages are made in Brittany.

From the SC. James GaZeCbe.l
 One of the causes of Strauss remarkable popularity in Vienna, as lately shown on the occasion of his anniversary festival, is the indictment which his ws1tzes have contribu- parties, with the result of bringing young people together and, as Q consequence, of pro noting matrimony. The Viennese say that he is the greatest matchmaker in Vienna. s'It was to the sound of one of your waltzes, J Count O'Sullivan, the husband of Charlotte Wolter, the distinguished actress, wrote to him on the occasion of his fete, "that I first placed my hand in that of my wife," and the composer has had hundreds of similar letters.
 The Bretons of Penze and the adjoining parishes have, according to one of the French papers, 0 Michalmas custom, which renders them quite independent of the musical and terpsichorean aids to matrimony, found so useful in Vienna. On Mich8lmas day all the young women in the district who desire to enter the married state, assemble on a particular bridge tricked out in all their inery, and take their seat on the parapet. The eligible young men from Penze and the neighboring parishes presently make their appearance on the scene. They scan the features of the seated damsels: tender glances are exchanged, and when at length a swain has fixed his choice on a particular nymph, he approaches her and offers her his hand to help her to the ground. If she accepts his hand for this particular service, she accepts it for life. The parents are never very far off on these occasions, and if they raise no objection, the young couple shake hands and the wedding soon follows.

A STRANGE MURDER CASE.

Perhaps the queerest murder case that courts have ever dealt with has just reached the end of it's first stage in England. It is case of what has been hitherto exclusively known as cannibalism. The English yacht Mignonette foundered at sea on her way to Australia in July last. Those on board were the captain, Dudley, the mate, Stephens, seaman named Brooks, and boy of seven teen named Richard Parker. They took to boat with little food. On the fifth day they caught a turtle, upon which they lived until the eleventh day, from which time un- til the eighteenth day they had nothing to eat, and only little rain water to drink. On that day the captain and mate held a con- sultation and decided that the boy should be killed on the next morning if there should be no vessel in sight. The boy was then lying prostrate in the bottom of the boat No yes sel appeared in the horizon in the morning, and the captain killed the boy by cutting vein in his throat. The seaman took no part in the killing but the mate was an accessory before the fact
 At the opening of the Exeter Assizes Bar on Huddleston charged the grand jury to find a true bill for murder against the cap tain and mate. He called the attention of the jury to case which was tried in Phila- delphia in 1842 before Judge Baldwin and jury. An emigrant ship was wrecked and the mate, eight seamen and thirty-two pas sengers were cast adrift in a leaky boat. The Holmes, seaman, and others of the crew began to throw the passengers overheard. No lots were cast The mate directed the crew rot to part man and wife, and not to throw over. any women. Sixteen passengers were flung into the sea, and the following morning the survivors were picked up. Holmes was tried for manslaughter. He was found guilty and was sentenced to six months Imprisonment and to pay as between a sailor and a passenger, the sailor was bound to protect the latter, and in his charge the judge said: FfWhen all sustenance is exhausted, and sacrifice of one person is necessary to ap- pease the hunger of others, the selection is by lot. This mode is resorted to as the fair est mode, and, in some sort, as an appeal to God for selection of the victim"
 Baron Huddleston did not think much of Judge Baldwin's reasonings. Indeed, he declared that it would seem almost to verge upon the blasphemous. He thought that if the boy Parker had had a revolver he would have been perfectly justified in killing the captain, who was about to kill him. The grand jury obeyed Baron Huddleston's di- rection and the captain and mate were in dicted for murder and tried. The jury found special verdict, embodying all the facts in twenty-two findings, and concluding with the words, f'But whether upon the whole matter the prisoners were and are guilty of murder the jury are ignorant, and refer it to the court" The case will be taken to the Queens Bench for review and it will be interesting to see how it ends. The current of opinion in England is that the killing of the boy was justifable.
