interest is being developed

at Washington to induce the Government to use jts influenoe, if nothing more, to compel the Mexican government to give preference to the bonds negotitated by it in this country during the war against Maximilian. With this object in view the matter will be brought to the attention of theMexican Claims Commission, and an attempt will be made to include the bonds among the claims of Americans against Mexico.

John' B. Anthon, a candidate for District Attorney of the State in New York city district, publishes an advertisement in the Sun, stating that he is a Deputy Grand Master of Masons, and calling upon his Masonic brethren to support him with their votes. The Chicago Bepubliin, alluding to this un-Masonic and impolitic conduct of Mr. Axtiion, reminds that gentleman that his course is calculated to bring down the execrations of all true Masons upon his hc:id. and the reproach of persons ignorant of he nature of tiie socioty upon the Order itself. Masonry is not a political in^i ution. It embraces men of every shade of politic-, and every creed of faith and any man who appeals to brother Masons for political support on account of his connection with the Order in any capacity, is either willfully or ignorantly violating principles in which he should be thoroughly grounded. We trust Mr. Antiion's appeal did not meet with the response it was expected to call out. It should have disgusted and driven all true Masons from his support.

Railway Conductors.

A Cincinnati cotemporary expresses the opinion that there is probably no class of men with whom the public is brought in dircct contact of whom more is expected, and who meet with more undeserved abuse, than railway conductors.— And yet, with few exceptions, conductors will generally be found polite, patient and obliging, amidst the daily petty perplexities and annoyances to which they are subject under our present odious style of railway conveyance. The little polite attentions and kind offices which duty, or it may be the natural instincts of the gentleman, calls upon them to perform, are received as a matter of course by many who possess neither the power nor the inclination to reciprocate. Necessity frequently, in fact almost daily, requires of the conductor summary treatment of the drunken and disorderly Jpassenger, and this disagreeable duty we believe to be generally performed with firmness, moderation and discretion. Much ofthe abuse heaped upon him by a though le-ss traveling public pertains to matters over which he has no control, and although the evil complained of may exist in fact, its remedy is often without the province and beyond the control of him to whom the blame attaches. If we would but reflect a moment before hurling our anathemas or imprecating vengeance upon the head of our "polite and gentlemanly conductor," calmer sccondjthought might suggest a more effective, and certainly more dignified, mode of procedure.

"Specic Payment.

Until we are again planted on the solid basis of hard cash until specie is restored to its legitimate use1', instead of being employed almost exclusively for gambling operations, we cannot feel that we are near the end of the series of national afllicfions upon which we entered when Buchanan's traitorous and cowardly administration plunged the country into an exhaustive civil war. There is such a vast and incalculable waste to the people in the existing machinery of exchange, by reason of uncertainty, speculative opportunities, and combinations for controlling productions of every description, that nobody sees the least chance of relief, by any kind of manipulation or good luck, save in the return of the country to the basis of specie. It is not that so very much cash is required but it is wanted in circulation, it ought to be felt as the ever controlling standard, it is needed to •xestore public confidence in the reality of wlijit is going on. The people would be glad to detect symptoms of the improvement in our currency which these requirements suggest. The first thing to do, as it occurs to the popular mind, is to reduce taxes through the sure aid of our immense surplus revenue, strengthen public creditso that the debt may be refunded at a lower rate of interest, and bring up at the same time the value of the paper dollar to the gold standard. That simple process—not complex—will at one and the same time relieve the community in a double way—by lightening the taxes and bringing down prices. There may be some pinching in this operation—it would indeed be singular if there were not but we are to remember that credits are not generally extended, and that the worst that could happen would come through partial and temporary stagnation rather than a severe shrinkage such as produces a panic. Of the latter there need be none at all. Easier taxes and a steady approach to hard money arc no more the parents of that than is water a good article to produce intoxication.

TRAITMAXX.

A Letter From the Pniitin 3Inrdcrer.

Traupmann, the atrocious assassin of the Kinck family, still denies his guilt. He lias written the following letter to his brother, who is an engineer in the French navy:— "My Dear Brother—Do not reject these few lines, as 1 have not the courage to write to our poor parents. Endeaver to console them as well as in your power, Tell them that they ought not to consider meso culpable as the journals assert. You can assure them that I am not a murderer, as they perhaps believe me at this moment, although I am accused as such. I wish that you were not a soldier, so that you might at least aid in solacing the distress with which our family is overwhelmed, or that you could invent something which would produce a little money to enable them to go to America for in France they will never again be at rest. In the United States at least they would not be the mark of scorn. Do what you can to comfort them for myself I can do nothing but weep for them. If anythin happens in our family, you will be kin enough to write to me. 1 do not ask for news, for I know well in what position they are. If I am downhearted, it is only on their account misfortune has fallen upon me and I submit. Embraee my parents forme, although they perhaps believe me unworthy of their favor. Your unhappy brother, "J. B. Traupmann."

This iettter was forwarded to his sister Francoise with the addition of the following few lines from Edmund, who has always borne an excellent character: "I at once replied, adjuring him to denounce his accomplices. I will send you his answer wlipn I receive it. Tell our parents that I still remain their devoted son. "E. ThatpmANN. "P. S.—Endea vor principally to console our poor mother." m«

GREAT SECRETS EXPOSED.

Spil

How they Humbug planation of the JJi ries.

the People—Ex avenport Myste-

Dr. W. J. Von Vleck gave at the Everett Booms, last evening, a very interest ing lecture, exposing the deceptive prasti ces of spiritual mediums and the tricks of the Davenport brothers, and other-sim-ilarjugglers. The lecture was accompanied by the performance, in the presence of thfi audience, of the tricks referred to, and showed conclusively the falsity ofthe spiritual agency theory. A small cabinet like that used by the Davenport brothers was placed on the platform, together with several musical instruments, ropes, strips of linen and all the paraphernalia employed by the spirituul prodigies, and committee was appointed by the audience to tie the lecturer, and otherwise superin tend the performances. The lecturer commenced with an explanation of

SPIRITUAL RAPPINGS.

The Doctor said that he had attended great many public and private performan ces by the most noted spiritual mediums, and detailed at length the means by which they produced their raps, answers to questions, etc. The most common method of spirit rapping was to snap the large mus cles of the wrist or legs. By doing this with the palms of the hand on the table, or the heels planted firmly on the floor, sound precisely similar to raps was made. The speaker did this on the platform without any visible movement of the body and said that any one could acquire the art by practice. lie could snap any of his principal muscles in that manner, and used to do so with the cords of his neck but had ceascd that from fear of disloca tion.

Female mediums generally produced the raps with their leet concealed under their skirts, which disguised the sound on the same principle as a ventriloquist appears to throw his voice to distant local ities. The spelling out of answers cpiestions so commonly perfoimed by spir itual mediums invariably failed when the letters were called one after the other without any change ofthfem. Persons asking questions in this manner generally gave uncon c'ously some intimation of the proper letters to be responded to, and the lecturer narrated several amusing inci dents of mediums being led to expos* their own trickerv by careful examiners, representing themselves a.* Spiaitualis and adopting the manner of caiele in terrogators.

to

TJIE CABINET TRICKS

were then elaborately illustrated. The lecturer, after being tied so firmly as to leave the impression on his wrists after being released, rang a bell, performed on musical instruments, thrust them out of the top of the cabinet, showed hands the whole in the door and executed many other feats here'ofore considered verv won derful. After this had bjem'onjwi" the cabinet doors closed, the same tricks wer perfoimed outside on the platform. The principal sccret consisted in slipping the forearm through the ropes instead of with drawing the hand, and the lecturer show cd that by stretching the wrists a person could use his hand with remarkable ease although at first apparently closcly tied to gether.

The untying process was also gone through with. The lecturer, after bein. tied by one of the reporters present and pronounced secure, disengaged himself in less time than was required to tie him and also showed how a hand might be re leased instantaneously when mediums were tied with the square knot, so generally used by audience committees. In such cases it was only neeessary to twist the knot in a certain way to change it into two half hitches, which slipped easily The hand then came out without difficulty, and, after performing various tricks, was slipped back again, tjie knot drawn down by muscular contraction and the performer left tied as securely as before.

All tliis was performed on the platform by the lecturer, together with a great variety of other feats, which, in the closed cabinet, seemed very mysterious, but outside as simple as putting on and removing a pair of gloves.

The entire performance was entirely free from attempts at concealment, and not only dissipated the mystery of the Davenport exhibitions, but demonstrated that with practice any one may acquire the same proficiency.—JST. Y. Herald.

A HASTY MARRIAGE.

Another Man's Bride Stolen Away and Married by the Husband of Two Wives.

From the Dubuque Herald, 2d.] The wise man declares that "there is nothing new under the sun," but verily we are disposed to differ with him. Day by day furnishes something strange— some item in the eventful history of life which goes to make up the sum and substance of our existence. The lattest example of the day's doings runs as follows:

About five or six weeks ago a young man bearing the aristocratic name of "Byron" Sheffield, and employed as traveler by a merchant of this city, started upon his usual rounds and duly arrived at the town of Mill Kock, Jackson county. The horses were unharnessed, the wagon made right for the night, and, our hero supped and prepared to spend an evening, when, by accident or otherwise, he became acquainted with a certain young lady of sweet eighteen, who was busily engaged in making up a suite. "Byron" enquired as to the nature of the work, aud was met by the reply that it was a wedding dress. Captivated by her charms and already head over ears in love, he seized upon a brilliant idea which flashed through his brain and asked her to marry him! How could it be, was she not engaged to another? Had not the day been fixed, the arrangements all but completed, the weddiug dress almost ready? A moment's thought and the matter was decided. Sardines and cove oysters were called into requisition, and un der such influence the assent was given— the magic word was spoken. Veni, vidi, wciVwell miglitSheffield exclaim. Time was precious—-not a moment was to be lost. Many a slip was known to take place between the cup and the lip. The wagon was brought out, the horses hitched up, and Byron Sheffield and his newly found Dulcinca eloped to tl\e county seat at Andrew, where the "twain were made one fle«h." Such were the effects of "sardines" aided and assisted by veritable "cove oysters." The lover proposed an alteration in the state of affairs—the loved one as promptly acquiesced,concluding she would rather prefer the newly found friend to the one whose bride she was so shortly to have become. Such is life,and if reports speak correctly the bride will soon discover that she occupies only a third-rate place in her husband's.affection, that worthy having been "spliced" twice before, and both wives said to be in existence. A pretty kettle of fish, and if he is wise he will remain in the quiet precincts of Jimtown, instead of venturing into the lion's mouth on this side of the river.

Byron is said to be very respectably connected in Ohio and Wisconsin. He is young and will come into some property next spring, when he attains his majority. He has run up several small bills on his employer's account in the shape of sleevebuttons, etc., etc., independently of the foregoing sardines and oysters, all of which are debited to him.

The honeymoon cannot last forever— all things must have an end, and as sure as fate Master Byron will sooner or later discover that he has "loved not wisely but too well," both for his own character and his fair one's reputation.

His employer suffers to the amount of $S0 or $100, besides probably other amounts not as yet discoved.

So much for sardines and ovsters-

A little daughter of Mrs. Jenkins, in Amherst, Lorain county, O., accidentally pulled a grindstone over last week, which crushed her chest, heart and lungs. Her mother, who is in delicate health, nerved by terror, performed the remarkable feat of lifting the grindstone, which weighed 500 pounds, from her dead child.

Low shoes are said to be quite fashionable, the most elegant being the Marie Antoinette slipper. This is made higher at the back than sides, with a small, 'high heel, and the front is nearly covercd by fulljilaitings of satin that rest loos ley upon the top of the foot alxive the slip|er, with an ornament of steel or jet in the centre.

The prettiest bonnet this season is a bandlet of Havana or brown velvet, having on one side in front a bow of blue velvet, crossed by a golden buckle from behind this bow a feathor, green and blue, mixed with a brownish tint on it brown strings of velvet, fastened in front by a rich brown velvet blow.—Paris Correspondent.

The physician fears that he may also lose the other eye..

A NETROSPECT.

The young ladies have commenced doing a very naughty thing, which is nothing more nor less than inserting a looking jlass on the inner side of the book of 'Common Prayer." It is so handy, you know, when you are saying the responses, to pay your little devotious to the mirror, for how can one say the responses aright if her strings are fluttered or her chignon awry? And then you know, you can get reflejpions from Celeste, over in the next slip, and examine her toilet, and all the time be looking at your Prayer Book, like a good child. For combining the altar and the toilet, there is nothing like it. When the Rector intimates that Aurelia is 5f worm ofthe dust, she will look at her chignon and think of the gregarines. When he cautions her againt pride, the sweet little Pharisee will glance at Celeste's shadow and be thankful that she is not as proud as C. But when she lisps the confession to her looking-glass, will she discover that she has 'left undone the things she ought to have done, and be miserable all through the service? And when the rector says, "Keep tliy foot when thou goest into the house of God and offer not the sacrifice of fools," will she see a fool in the lookingglass?

Which reminds me to say that I shall go to the Old Folks' Concert on Monday night: and I shall revive the recollection of these days when Hepzibah, in a blue calico, sang treble and turned up her nose at Prudence, in bombazine, who sang second and always went off the key in the fugue of those days when Zephaniah played bass viol with an unctuous, solemn sound, and sister Brown thought it was about time that Huldy Perkins published her banns, if she was ever "a-goin' ter" when old Deacon Jones couldn't sleep well through the sermon, the "tarnal" flies "pestered him So" when my aunt, in a blacK silk that would stand alone, and a white cap over those gray locks that are now strangely twisted among the roots of the daisies,always made the chorister mad when they sang Coronation, because she couldn't jjet through the quirl in the final "Lord" without running off the track and wrecking half the congregation. There was a great deal of talk about this failing of my aunt's at the sewing bees, and it occasioned hard feelings bet-.Teen her and the chorister, but I have no doubt they have settled it now, and sing a great deal better than they did when they were in the flesh.

At least, I hope they do.
