MANCHESTER, May 9.-The Manchester
Courier makes a savage attack on the
United States anent the massacre OF the
Italians at New Orleans. The Courier
says that the presentment of the grand
jury shows the rottenness of the American
system Of government, that while polite
al intrigues sometimes evoke deserved con-
domination in England, and while British
institutions are far from perfect, nothing
exists in Great Britain revealing such in
famous and villainous corruption as that
New Orleans presentment.

She Was the Founder and Leader of the
ThensophIsts.

she was the FOUNDER ana Leader OF the
Theosophists-
LONDON, May 0-Mme. Blavatsky, the
well known Theosophist is dead. Nine.
Helene Petrovna Blavatsky the renowned
founder and leader of the Theosophists,
was born at Ekaterinslav, in southern
Russia. in 1881. Her father was a Colonel
Peter Hahn, and when only seventeen
years old she married General Nicephore
V, Blayatsky, who was at one time gov
ernor Of Armenia She was thoroughly
educated and an accomplished linguist,
aud spent many years Of her life after her
husband died travelling among the Bud
dhist monasteries in Thibet, where she
claimed 10 have gained possession Of oc-
cult wisdom and to have obtained many
OF the secrets lodged in the generally mac
cessihle places which She visited.
She came TO America about 1915 and re
sided in New York, where she began to
organize the Philosophical society, whose
headquarters were afterward and are still
in India. Among those who became con
verts to the new doctrine were Colonel f.
p. Olcott, who was a well known poll
tician, and employed in the Office Of the
comptroller Of New York; General Abner
Doubleday; O'Donovan, the sculptor, and
other we'll known men. Colonel Olcott
became so enthusiastic over the idea that
he went with Nine. Blavatsky TO India,
was made president Of the Philosophical
| society which they established in Hindu
stan and Ceylon, and, in fact, under the
powerful influence Of these two wide
| spreading cutie was organized and has
been sustained ever since.
The doctrines Of the Theosophical society
are to Gautama Buddha what Neo- Platoon
ism was to Plata. 1t recognizes the uni
versal brotherhood of man, the existence
/ of occult powers, succession of lives and
| the Buddhist idea of karma, or retribu-
ton. In this country and in England
there are many branches Of the parent so
ciety and numerous periodicals to aid in
/ spreading Theosophical views. In London
monthly magazine, Lucifer, has been
| edited by Mime. Blayatsky, the Countess
Wachtmeister and of late Mrs Annie Be
SAINT who is a comparatively recent ad-
herent and a strong friend Of Nine. Bla-
vatsky.
In the United States the branch societies
are under the leadership of Mr.. William Q.
/ Judge, of this city Nine Blavatsky has
been residing in London for the past few
years, being in poor health. Colonel Oh
| colt is still in India. The deceased was a
voluminous writer and published in New
/ York, 1877, Isis Unveiled A Master Key
to the Mysteries of Ancient and Modern
Science and Theology and in 1885 in
| London, THE Secret Doctrine" These
| works are each in two large octave vol
umes They display the results of vast
| study and remarkable erudition.

BULKELEY ANSWERS MORRIS.
He Claims That No Successor Has Been
Elected TO Qualify.

Elected TO Qualify.
NEW HAVEN, May 9.--The answers Of
Governor Buckley and Lieutenant Gov
ernor Merwin to the claims of Judge Nor
ris and DIR. Alsop have been filed. They
are almost Identical The governors an
swer claims that he is the true and lawful
governor Of Connecticut, and the court
would be bound to take judicial notice Of
that fact and dismiss the proceedings even
If no answer was filed. The answer then
goes on as follows:
Nevertheless, in difference TO the order Of
this court and to the end that Governor Bulke-
ley may be advised and informed a. 10 his con
stitutional rights and duties, he further says
that Che general assembly Of Connecticut, at its
January session, 1889, to wit, on Thursday, Jan.
10, 1889, that being the second day Of said SEES
sion did, by joint ballot Of both houses choose
him governor for the term Of two years and
until his successor shall be duly qualified He
then qualified aud has acted and does still con.
tinue TO act as governor, no successor having
yet been chosen and qualified, and no person
can be invested with the Office OF governor until
he has been duly declared governor by the gen
eral assembly of Connecticut and has qualified
accordingly.
The answer then cites as evidence the
action of the house in investigating the
returns and finding that no person had
received a majority Of the votes cast. TIL,
/ governor denies that he usurps the Office
and says he exercises its functions by war
rant Of law. He asks for the dismissal o.
the charges against him. The Democrats
will file an answer or a demurrer, prob
| ably the latter IL may be a month befor,
the court passes upon the question.
