would enable the manufacturers to pay higher
wages, and, in short put a sudden ending to
this era of trade stagnation. Such a change has
repeatedly occurred in history of this country,
and has been brought about by variety of
causes. The conditions just now favor such
change. The Boston Herald. in commenting
on the business situation, says what is needed is
wide spread public confidence in the future 1t
does not matter what the moving cause is.
whether war In Asia or an enormous exporta-
ton of American supplies, the main thing, now
that we have reduced, by relative cessation of
exertion, the abundant supply of finished ma
terial, Is to inspire people with the belief that
times are to be better in the immediate future
than they have been in the immediate past, and
that they can give orders and buy goods with
the confidence that they will not suffer pecuni-
arg loss in so doing. We should much prefer to
have this confidence superinduced by some other
cause than war; but, still, if war must tax o
place, it is well that it should have some slight
compensation. In the local market there is no

visit Albany and the intermediate towns.
At West Point the cadets paraded in his
honor, and he inspected the post From
Albany he went to Troy, and thence to
I.ansingburg, Waterford, and then back
to Albany. On his return down the river
he stopped at Red Hook, and called ON the
widow Of Gen. Montgomery, who fell in
storming the city of Quebec, December,
l1i5, and at Fishkill Landing he stopped
to call on MIS-. Dewitt, granddaughter of
President John Adams. While in New

went to Mount Vernon, when he was pre-
scented by Mr.. Gusts with ring contain

men on meeting threw their arms around
each other and remained locked in silent

feelings found utterance. He remained n

BY Congress, which subsequently, passed a

THE ST. BERNARD FISHING CLUB.
Remarkable Catch Made by Gen. Hcnry's
Party-Organizcd sport.


Gen. W. w Henrys fishing party, who
have been at Lake St Bernard, Canada,
for about two weeks, have returned and
report II very successful trip, having
taking 1862 trout. Beside Gen. Henry the
party included George NJ. Hard, A. f.
Allen, c. II. Simpson, ID. Emerson, w. II.
Locke and Brent Good of New York,
James Brock of Montpelier, Charles Reed,
formerly of Montpelier but now of ILL
nois, i. b. Boynton and f. j. Robinson
of Morrisyile The party started from
here June 1 and arrived at their destina-
ton on the 3D. Gen Henry says that the
fishing was not so good as last year but
was fair considering the GOODNESS of the
season The ice did not leave the lakes in
that region until May 10, and there was a
smart Sow storm one day while they
were there. which rendered fishing out of
the question. The party were pre-
vented from going on the lake
| during another day by cold rain
storm. 1t will be seen that the
| party did some lively work. Deductng
| from the time they were absent, the time
required for going and returning, the days
| 1t showed and rained and Sunday, each
OF the party averaged over fitty-iive fish
| day. large portion of this remarkable
catch were sailed down, no small number

away fresh.
From the makeup of the party it can
| be readily imagined that in addition to
doing good work "A large amount of fun
| to the square inch was enjoyed by them
and their headquarters were ten miles
from any other habitatiOn so there is no one
| to tell tales on them The club 90 about
| their fun in Il busness-ike manner how
| ever, and they have made arrangements
| for its continuance for some time TO come
| They have secured from the commissioner
| of crown lands at Quebec the lease of 100

| years from January |, 1855. There is a
| substantial house of hewn timber forty
| by twenty feet, two stories high. and com
fortably equipped This is situated on the
| most central lake and the other lakes are
all within radius of five miles The
club also have twelve birch birk canoes,
| and when fishing each OF the party has a

| lakes as well as to render secure their
| property at the headquarters, guardian

Mr.. Phelps and the Dynamiters-Mr
Lowell.

Correspondence of the n. Y. Trbune.1
LONDON, May 20.
To-day's London papers publish what
seems to be Il telegram from New York to
the effect that Mr. Phelps, the American
Minister in London, was present in court
during the trial of Cunningham and Bur
ton, in pursuance of special instructions
from his Government, with view to the
protection of the legal rights of the pris-
oners. 1t is true that Mr.. Phelps was in
court during the summing up of Mr. JUS
tice Hawkins. and sat on the bench by the
judges side, as distinguished strangers
usually do. But he was not there as
American Minister, for the sufficient reas-
on that he was not then the American
Minister. He had not presented his Gre
dentials, and had no official or diplomatic
standing in this country. 1t may be pre-
Sumed that the special instructions from
his Government were a flight of magma
ton.
Mr.. Phelps was in court as spectator,
and not otherwise. He had no more to dO
with protecting the prisoners than | had.
| can imagine that he went there to form
his own opinion on the merits of the case,
and that his opinion agrees with that OF
every one competent to pass an opinion,
| whether on the guilt of Cunningham and
departure was made in their case from the
usual rule of scrupulouS fairness to the
accused. The usual rule in England is t.
give the accused something more than the
| benefit of the doubt. Things are strained
in his favor. The judge is one more coun-
sci for the defence. The prosecuting coun-
sell when of high rank at the bar is curl
ously lenent and Considerate. Here the
! Attorney General himself was for the
Crown, and he conducted his cause in the
| judicial spirit which is natural to a man
| singularly fair-minded. Sir Henry Haw-
! kins himself seemed to soften toward the
prisoners certainly not from sympathy
! with them, but from IA fear lest abhor-
| renee of Il peculiarly hideOus crime might
| prejudice him against those accused OF 1t.
| His summing up, nevertheless was mas
terly performance, and the verdict once
| given there was no shrinking on the part
of the judge from prOnounclng the sen
tence OF penal servitude for life which
these ruihans mad richly earned 1t Is thu
| maximum sentence.

A partisan is a dangerous character.

nonymous words. All Republicans are
partisans, therefore they must be removed
from office. OF course no partisanS will
be selected to fill their places. That loud
mouthed political ranter, Gen. Wells,
must step down and out, so that the gen.

with politics as IA partisan, may have his

Der of Il campaign club or had served on
some partisan committee or in some way
shown his colors ut the last election there
might have been some chance for Wells
to have held his place until his commis-
sion had expired, but owing to the unob-

He was the ruins OF the noblcst man
That ever lived III the tide of tunes.
Imprisoned in IL Shipwrecked Vessel.
From the London Standard.

One of the most extraordinary escapes,
after shipwreck, was reported on May IL,
at Hull. On the previous day il keel bound
from Grinsby to Leeds was driven against
a sandbank and capSi2ed, and it was sup
posed that all on bOard-the master, his
wife and three children-had persisted
On that morning about 10 o'clock, the
captain of Il steam tug was passing the
spot where the accident happened, and
saw the keel floating bottom upward on
the edge of the sandbank. He got as near
to it as he could, and presently heard
sounds Of knocking coming from the cabin
end. The crew concluded that some. one was
on board, and energetic steps were taken to
get the keel in such a position rs to effect
rescue. After several hours labor this
was accomplished, and, II hole having
been cut through the bottom of the vessel,
the captains wife, Mrs. SnOwden, and one
OF her children were rescued alive, after
an agonlzing suspense of nearly seventeen
hours.
The water had nearly filled the cabin
where the woman and her three children
were sleeping, but there was Just space
enough left for her to keep her head and
those of her little ones above the water,
which ultimately reached up to the moth
er's throat. When they were aroused by
the sinking of the keel and the thrush of
the water, she contrived to get hold of the
children, who all held on by the hair of
her head, and in that way for some time
all of the little ones were kept alive, but
during the day two of them died. Just as
the man who rescued them got into the
cabin the water flowed in and reached to
the womans mouth. All the children
were still clingng to her hair, and she
and the live child were in a terribly eX-
hausted condition. The mothers hands
were raw with knocking at the side of the
keel.
The survivors were taken on board the
tug and carefully tended. 1.-THE moment
of the keel capsizing, what is known as
the horse line twisted round the captain
and carried him down among the rigging
which appeared to have remained under
water even when the keel was being rolled
over by the force of the tide.
