It's curious that among Protestant people. tho
Germans and the English-that Is. among peoples
who most strongly rejected the alleged marlolatry-
the most pronounced cases of uncompromising
woman-worshp have occurred. In England, joan

the street all about the home of the Seeress, and
there was great expectation. Nor did the speedy
death of Joanna from her disease disiusionize her

some remnants of tho Southcottites in existence,
and they look for the temperance of their leader.
Strange religious scots have becn common in Ger

Admiral Porters description of President
Lincoln's visit to Richmond within day or
two after the Capital of the Confederacy fell
into Union hands is printed on the fourth page
of this paper. 1t is of striking interest, and
will be widely read in these days when all Incl
dents connected with the Rebellion are finding
a new generation to devour them. On that
visit the President first came in close contact
with the slaves he had liberated, and it is there
fore of historical Importance
Annexations come so thick and fast in these
days that it is hardly to be wondered at that
two important ones were overlooked In the
foreign dispatches last week. Our cable letter
this morning mentions them, however They
were made by England and consist of all the
coast line between Cape Colony and Natal,
and all the islands lying between Australia
and Newt Guinea. protectorate has also
been proclaimed over Southern New Guinea.
Discussions of the past week must be revised
so as to include and allow for these important
English acquisitions.
With the opening of the new year every man
who delights in the performances of the gal
liant thoroughbred is eager to know the pros
poets of the coming racing season. An article
i'm this issue gives great deal OF fresh infOr-
nation about the old heroes of the turf and the
Youngsters that will try to win laurels for the
first time in the Juvenile at jerome Park or the
many rich two-year-old stakes at Monmouth.
Among the more interesting bits of news are
the breaking down of that famous old favOrite
Eole. and the promise of the yOungster that is
the pride and boast of 4. Berry Wallis stable.
If MFR. Wall should turn up as owner OF the best
two-year-old of 1885, certain circles in this
city would be shaken to their centres.
1t is not pleasant fact to know, but yet it is a
sact according to Professor r. A. Proctor, that
this earth is to-day just as likely to quake and
overthrow cities and tOwnsDas it has been at
any time since man existed. The conditions
within the globe which cause these disturb
snccs are changing, but so slowly that there is
nractically no difference between what they
we're thousands of years ago and what they
will be thousands Of years hence. Nobody
would have cause of surprise, therefore, II the
earthquake of Lisbon, in 1855. should present.
lv be repeated Indeed, it seems possible that
great disturbances have recently taken place
not on dry land, but on land that is under
the ocean, and that the big wave at New-Haven
and the shocks in Spain indicate the limits OF
their ,xts1t.

tion to the condition OF the children OF the
poor. Their chances of reaching five years OF
age are much worse, apparently, than the coun-
try child's chance of living to be threescore
aud ten and they are much more likely TO 1aii
sick. Herein lies one of the strongest reasons
for persistence in efforts to improve our tehe-
ment houses. The adult occupants are more or
less hardened, but the children fall easy VIC
tins to disease, and thereby help contaeion and
epidemics of all kinds to spread. AS precau-
tionary measure, therefore, against the spread
of cholera next summer, the conditions uhder
which the children of the wretchedly poor i've
should be improved Immediately as much as
possible.
Confessedly to avoid the tax-gatherer, the
Elevated Railroad Company announces that Its
main office, hereafter, will be at Irvington on
the Hudson. This is in imitation OF the
action of the New-YOrk Central, which
has its main Office at Albany. But in the Cen
trails case there is at least the semblance OF
good excuse. 1t has its tracks, great shops
and much other property at the State capital.
The Elevated Railway COmpany's property
however, is all within this city. 1t has not
foot of track within miles of the place where IL
wishes to make its legal home. and might as
well have selected Niagara Falls or Emira as
IryingtOn. The law officers Of New York VIII
hardly allow so transparent plan to evade
Just tax burdens to be carried out without DO
ing their best to stop it.

A dispatch from Batilef0rd says that Chief
/ POundmaker has surrendered Internationally
| to Gen. Middleton, who reached BattlefOrd on
| Sunday. Poundmaker and thirty braves are
| prisoners. The Chief turned over the train
captured and 2l0 muskets. The Indian posts
numbered 100.
Poundmaker blamed Riel for melting the
Indians to rise, and said he came TO tell the
General to kill him so as to save his people.
Several Chiefs followed all blaming Riel for
misleading them. A scene occurred during the
pow-wOw when Gen. Middleton asked who
killed Barney Fremont and Payne. One brave,
Stony, rose from the circle, kneeled 6t Gen.
Aliddleton's feet, and said the great chief could
cut him in pieces, as he had killed Payne. He
did not want all punished for his offence. He
said he killed Payne in self-defence. He de-
manded ten days rations from the inspector,
as he was going hunting, and was refused.
Payne took away his shotgun, but he regained
it and shot Payne with buckshot. His grand
son Wawonice confessed to numbering, in cold
blood, Barney Fremont, who was greasing a
wagon The murderers were arrested.
Inspector Peters reports Fort Pitt burned.
Policeman Ccwan's body was found there,
horribly mutilated. Peters was also at Frog
Lake, where he discovered the bodies Of the
people massacred by Big Bears Indians The
bodies Of Father Marchand and Father Far
ford were found in the cellar of a burned
house. They were much charred, but were
recognized Their gowns were not altogether

In Boston, Judge Allen gave his decision in
the Sullivan divorce case, dismissing the Libel
ication, the Judge said that the evidence
showed that Sullivan had been drunk on sew
eral occasions, but not to that extent as would
justify a divorce on the ground Of gross and
confirmed habits Of intoxication. The several
charges Of cruelty Judge Allen did not regard
as proved in view Of the conflicting evidence.
The same rule of cruelty would not apply to
Mrs. Sullivan as in the case Of o refined wo-
man, for before her marriage she had lived
with Mr.. Sullivan as his mistress and was
familiar with his habits Judge Allen further

Later information from the front indicates
