The New ARTIFICIAL Quinlne.

Artificial quinine, writes the Paris
correspondent of the Lancet, is the
discovery of the week indeed, we
may say of the year. The synthesis OF
that useful, nay, indispensable sub
stance, quinine, has long been desid-
cratum, aud now, thanks to NM. Gi-
maux aud Armand (the former profess
sor Of chemistry ut the Ecole Poly
technique aud the latter having sue
cecded the late illustrious centenarian,
Chevreul, at the Museum d'Historie
Naturclle), the chemical dream has
been realized. The method adopted
by these gentlemen is as follows: The
base cuprcin contained in the shrub
Remijia peduuculata growing In Brazil
Is treated with sodium, then the CON-
bination thus obtained with chloride
Of methyl. The product Is quinine
absolutely identical with the substance
with which we are familiar. This im-
portant discovery should have the
effect of bringing down the price of
qulG:nc, and Of rendering us indepen-
dent OF supplies from the usual
sources. Tic discovery presents
further interest in that, by the substi-
tuition in the foregosag process Of
compounds Of ethyl and oiser higher
alcohols for those of methyi, new
bodies analogous to quiuine may sa
manufacturcd-bodies whose therap-
eutical value may be great.
In Natures report Of the meeting of
the Paris Academy of Sciences, at
which Grimaux and Arnaud read
their paper on "The Formation OF
Cupreine into quinine,n 1t is stated
that the plan which these chemists
adopted was to heat to 1000 q. in seal
ed tubes, for twelve hours, a mixture
of molecular proportions of cupreine
and methyl chloride with an atomic
proportion of sodium (the whole dis.
solved In methyl alcohol. They de.
duce from experimental evidence that
quinine Is the methoxide of cupreine
1t would thus appear that they only
differ from Hesse in using metallic
sodium instead Of caustic soda.

A Liberal view or theDari Monument

No objection can be made to the
way in which the Southern people
propose to pay respect to the memory
of the late President of the Confeder.
acy. Whatever the North may think
of him as politician and statesman
whatever may be ITS opinion of bis
political principles, il can find no fault
with the Southern people for showing
proper respect for him. lie was
their standard-bcafer as surely rs Gen.
Lee was their military leader, and per-
haps the time will come when even nj
tue North ii may be conceded that JEFF
ferson Davis was as houest IN follow
ing bis convictions as Robert Lee is
universally admitted to have been. The
late james Redpaih was the companion
Of Mr.. Davis during the last two years
Of his life, aud had regard for the
Confederate leader which could only
have been derived from a true knowl-
edge of the man himself. IL one OF
our most radical political guides at the
North could have been won to give
this man his intimate friendship we
cannot wonder at the regard of the
Southern people. The monument to
Jefferson Davis would be worthy of
the leader Of the lost cause, and nobody
at the North viii respect Southern men
the less on account Of this manifestation
Of their regard for him.

A Charge Against a Christian Minister In
Colorado.
DENVER, Oct. 19.-Charges have been
preferred against Rev. j.. L. Brandt of the
highland Christian church of this city, by
Mrs. Mierx, q wealthy Spanish lady of
Santa Fe. New Mexico. Charles Wagner, a
business man of Santa Fe, was very anxious
to marry the daughter of Mrs. Miera, but
the mother, who is q Catholic, objected on
the ground that Wagner was a divorced
man and could not be married by a priest.
She consented, however, to the marriage,
if a priest could be found who would per-
form the ceremony. The party. came to
Denver, and Wagner called on MIR. Brandt.
It is. alleged that MIR. Brandt, for q consid-
Grafton. agreed to shave off his luxurious
burnsides, and %personate a priest. The
deception was made easy by the fact that
Mrs. Miera does not understand English.
Mr.. Brandt. who is very prominent in reli-
gious circles here. was seen this afternoon
and ADMITTED that he performed tho cero-
mony, and assisted in deoeiving "the old
woman but says he used the service of

PoRT TOWNSEND, WASH, Oct. 19.-Thirteen
%smugglers were captured on San Juan island
by the revenue cutter Wolcott. Capt. Tozier
sent a steam launch to guard the island a
week ago. Several men were sent from the

They went to a cabin of the %smugglers and
asked for shelter. After being there for
two days, and having secured sufficient evil
dsnce against the %smugglers they sent for
the cutter. Friday night the Wolcott vent

and cut of the escape of others. Marines
are guarding the island and it is expected
the entire gang will be captured. The

SAN Francisco, Oct. 19.-lt became known
to-day that the seizure of &c, 900 fraudu-
lently stamped cigars was made last Friday
at the auction rooms of Davis, Huber& Co.,
of this city. The cigars were branded as
coming from the factory of Goldarenza g.
Enluse, St. Augustine. Fla, but when the
revenue officials wired that firm the reply
made BY them, and that 10000, 900 fraudu-
lent cigars bearing that FIRMS brand had
been disposed of by unknown parties in
and around San Francisco. Investigation
showed that the cigars had been consigned
to Davis, Huber g. Co., by a New York firm,

facturers of this city and sent east, whence

Evalasco and Espsinaro Remires, two

one sutton more than the other. The two

At midnight Saturday they went to a de-
sirable building and stripping to the skin
began to battle. each having a long ~stiletto.
They had been fighting for some time when
the attention of a policeman was attracted
to the place by the noise, He forced an
entrance and found both men in terrible
condition. They were both cut and covered
with blood, which was flowing from man.
Wounds. They were separated and both
were taken to the hospital. They will
probably both die.

Very Good Radiance.

. violent speech defending anarchy. This
speech, which was full of the most bitter
denuciatlons of existing systems of govern.
ment and society, caused such an uproar
and SO much protest upon the part of the
more sobsr-minded portion of the delegates
that the congress was upon the point of
electing a committee to consider the expul-
sion of member who supported the anarch-
lstlo views of the speaker. Then Auerbach,
anaid a scene of uproarious disorder, an
nounced the secession from the socialist
party of himself, Werner. Wildberger,
Schulz and Brethge. All five Immediately
withdrew from the hall.
