The Proud Distinction Conferred on Col
Curtis by the Cork Band.
A special cAblegram to this Office brings
the cheerful information thai Colonel John
II. Curtis landed yesterday upon the sacred
soil OF the old sod. The news Of his com
ing had been fl shed across the ocean many
days in advhnc OF his arrival and the
famous Cork Band determined to confer on
the world-renowned patriot tie most signal
honor in its power. This band, it will be
remembered, refused to play "God Save
the Queen" at the Irish expedition at
London this year, for which act of in4e.

THE misfortune s of matrimonial mis-

mating are everywhere pointing their
morals to greater care in mating. In
stead IF making divorce more difficult,
it often seems that marriages should be
made less easy Of contraction and di-
vOrces less difficult of obtaining. The
unfortunate affair at Omaha, yesterday,
carries its own lesson with it; and yet it
will be needed by too few. The mistakes
Of his early life young King was proba'

fortunes had been shared by him, in
evident generalization, deliberately shot
him dead.

And we furthermore feel 1T our duty to ex-
