The DepOsed sndivv Petentate WfaO
Has Regulated the English.
a. Late Paris Letter.
Dhuleep Singh, eX-king of Punjaub,
whose dominions were annexed by the gov
ernor-general of British India some forty
years ago. has, within the past two weeks,
joined the little colony of dspossessed po-
tentates, who make their headquarters at
Paris. Until few months ago he resided
in England, was a member of all the best
clubs, regular church-goer and most
hospitable entertainer at his beautiful coun-
try seat of Thetford, in Norfolk, where he
had the finest shooting in all England The
annuity OF 5000, 600 allowed to him by the
British government. however. proved ut
terly inadequate to meet the expenses
he Incurred with truly oriental reckless
ness. He got deeper and deeper into debt,
and the government having once already
paid off his liabilities, declined to assist him
any further in the matter. Accordingly,
Dhuleep Singh came to the conclusion that
British amity was fraud and Christianity
a deluSlon. He gave orders for the disposal
OF his already heavily mortgaged estate;
mailed out to India documents announcing
his withdrawal from the Protestant church
anu lic W lilC lOlu VI Tile great SuI-
CARGO, and cabled a proclamation to his
former subjects, stating that he had made
up his mind to spend the remainder of his
days amongst his beloved people. Shak-
ing the dust of his feet off against
England, he started on his journey to In
dia, but was stopped en- route by
the English governor of Aden who had re-
received instruc ions from the Governor
General Of India not to allow him to pro-
coed. Thoroughly disgusted Dhuleep en-
parked on the next mail steamer for Mar
settles, and has now taken up his residence
at the Grand Hotel at Paris, where he pro-
poses to reside. His acquaintance with the
French language is extremely limited. the
only words which he appears to know being
''AnglsiS cochOus" English hogs. phrase
which he repeats all day long with great
gusto. He complains bitterly of the refusal
OF the English to give him back the Kon-i-
moor diamond which the English authorities
annexed at the same time as his dominons
The magnificent stone, the most valuable
diamond in the world, now figures among
the crown jewels of Great Britain, and on
state occasions Queen Victoria always
wears it mounted as a brooch. 1t weighed
originally 500 carats, but was reduced by
the awkwarduess of the cutter to 1O3 car
ats. Its value is estimated by experts as
amounting to over $4,000, 900.

THE CUTTING CASE.
Some Opinions Regarding 1t by
Il

OA HeAtCo.
CITY OF MEXICO, Aug. 6.-The Cutting case
is still uppermost. a reporter visited some
of the American residents to get their views
to-day. Neither Minister Jackson nor Consul
General Pooh felt at liberty to say
anything for publication. General
Superintendent Mackenzie of the Mexi-
can Central railway said he was
sorry that so much trouble had arisen from a
petty quarrel between Cutting and Medina.
The general manager of the Wells Fargo
express, Mr.. Turner, said he considered it a
matter of little Importance. Frederic R.
Gurnssey, the editor of the Mexican
Financier, said that this and other cases
on the border emphasized the need of a
special tribunal OF an international characte.
to decide questions continually arising. Mr.
j. Mastiila Clarke, publisher of the Two
Republics, said that when Cutting came to
Mexico he had voluntarily subjected himself
to Mexican law. Mr.. Bayard's demand seems
to have been made in ignorance of
the fact that Cutting was to be tried
for acts committed in Mexico. Arthur P
Cushing. an American lawyer said THE
act for which Cutting was arrested has been
for years an otfenSe according to the penal
coGe of Chihuahua, and the principle is
quite right that if a man avais himself of
such long-range weapon as the
press to injure another, he must keep
out of the jurisdiction of the courts
of the domicile of the injured party. The
case than if he had fired a rife across the
river and Intentionally killed a man on this
side and then on coming over had been ar
rested by the Mexican authorities and put on
trial for murder"
LAREDO, Mex, Aug. 6.-All day long re-
cruits have arrived. The troops in this city
paraded the streets. in different parts. The
force numbers about 400 men, cavalry
and artillery. The latter company went
clear to the river bank two or three times to-
day and swung the muzzles of their cannon
towards Texas with great bravado, This
exhibition was uncalled for and
the Mexican impudence caused the blood
OF the average man on the Texas side to boil
with indignation. Eighty cavalry horses for
the lower Rio Grande will arrive at
Laredo tonight, bound for Brownsville.
Ell Nacional, one of the two Mexican papers
published in the city of NuX states
that Americans travelling in Mexico
are not allowed to carry arms
at present. Their weapons are
taken out of the valises, trunks. etc., while
Englishmen and other foreigners can retain
their weapons upon proving their nationality.

She Dies Unkn own and Frfendless

NEW ORLEANS, Aug. 5.-Victoria
Grace, Little Vic, the Queen of the Air"
as she was called, was recognized yesterday
among the bodies lying partially dissected
in the dissecting room of the charity hos
ptal. She died in the hospital
without anyone knowing who
she was, and was about to be buried in the
potter's field, when some one Of the mem

her decent burial Victoria Grace was

well off, but spent money even faster than
she made it, and, being addicted to the use
of opium, gradually drifted into debt and
poverty. Originally a very hand

ALLEN G. THURMAN.

Now that SEYMOUR and TILDEN and
HENDRICKS and MCCLELLAN are all gone,
Judge THURMAN is the only one left of the
grand galaxy of Democratic leaders who
controlled the destinies of their party less
than two decades ago. The venerable Ohio
statesman is tottering on the brink of the
grave, and will ere long join his late politi-
cal comrades ON the other side. He may be,
as he says he is, a mere political ghost-his
active political career may be ended-still
he is the one remaining prophet of the
Democratic Israel, whose influence with
the masses is unlimited. 1t is all the more
encouraging, therefore, to hear him give an
unqualified Endorsement to Mr.. CLEvE-
LANDS administration. There is no sus-
picion that Judge THURMAN has an axe to
grind when he praises the CLEVELAND
administration. 1t is the voluntary tribute
from one honest statesman to another.

THE DEAD STATESMAN.

Ex-President TILDEN will be laid to
rest to-day in the old family burying ground
at Lebanon and the earth will close over
the form of the greatest American states
man of the age. Although his name does
not appear on our presidential roster, it is
entitled to be there. He was elected to
that proud position by the votes of his coun-
trYmen in 1876. The fact that he was
swindIed out of the office does not detract
from the fame of the great statesman. TIL

German soci.Ii,t. arres,ea

HAMBURG, Aug, 6.-The police of this
city last night raided beer cellar, much
frequented by socialists. while socialistic
meeting was being held therein. The
meeting was broken up and the cellar was
searched The search revealed the fact
that the place was rendezvous of socialists
Of the most extreme class. Documents
were found showing the existence of Sc
cret society which had ramifications
throughout Germany Holland and England,
and one of whose official headquarters in
Germany was the cellar raided Subscrip-
ton lists accounted and letters were found,
which, taken together, afford clue to a
large proportion of the membership of the
organization. The discoveries made were
such as to warrant the police in arresting
eight of the socialists who were in the
cellar when the officers made their descent.

She gathers red roses now.

And bring the bright life untried?

Full often thorn they bear,

May bring with it weight Of care.

When cares press heavily
And the thorns have pierced through the

Then all her dreaming will be
OF the old sweet life mid the lilies,
In maidenhood blithe and free.

In the bright lexicon of refined and Guilt
waited men and women there is no such word
as pants"
1t is fact, notwithstanding the general
misuse of the term, that there is no good au-
thority for ''pants'' as the name of an article
OF wearing apparel. 1t is a contraction of
the word pantaloons. The original word is
not the happiest one in the English language,
and when contracted out of existence, the
amended and abbreviated word is without
sanction. The word trousers is much to be
preferred. 1t is in general use among CIVIL
