HENRY WARD BEECREER, in his

remarks at the .funeral of A. L. RICHAiibsoN, gave liis clerical endorsement to the relations which had subsisted between i,hiw ATTTL the.late Mrs.

MCFARLA.KD—at

least fothis extent: "I believe this man to have been a true man, particularly in thai part of his history about which the public is now so agitated." 1

The temparance men in New Hampshire will meet at Concord, to-day, to do a very foolish thing,- to wit, organize a distinct political party. Have they heard from the Temperance patty in Ohio? Be'tween the two parties contending, the one to retain and the other to regain control of State and national governments there is no room for a third organization. ,'i" rstailla

THK Indianapolis Sentinel—which, as our readers know, is the recognized or gan of the Democratic party of Indianaspeaks of President GRAFT'S first message as "a plain, well expressed and business like paper. There is no attempt at fine writing or ambiguity, but the President presents the subjects he bring3 to the at tention of Congress boldly, and dismisses them with as few words as will make his views intelligible."

THE 'appointment of Hon. R. W, Tuo.wrsojf as one of the Board of Trus tees of the State Normal School, will be approved by the citizens of this part of the State irrespective of party. It is an important and honorable position, one that requires in the appointee commannd ing influence and universal respect.— These requisites Col. THOMPSON possesses That he will give his earnest attention to the duties of the office and discharge them with signal ability and rare fidel ity, no one can doubt.

SENATOR MORTON writes his friends in Indianapolis, that he is confident the Fifteenth Amendment will become apart of the Constitution before the end of the present session of Congress, a prediction that we earnestly hope may be verified. When the colored man has the ballot, and not till then, will the natural enemy of his race—the Democratic party—accord to him those rights which are his due by virtue of his being a member of the human family. When it becomes a political necessity to deal justly with the African, your Democrat may be depended Upon tO do ft.

THE Methodist, the organ of the Lay Delegation party which is the largest party in the Methodist Episcopal Church, is not satisfied with the white-washing report of the committee that investigated the alleged mismanagement in the New York Book Concern. "The Church," it says, "shoulcl know the amount it has lost by mismanagement." It also thinks that the gentlemen connected with the concern, who were exonerated by the investigation, should have the benefit of it, and those who are guilty should have their complicity in the wrong exposed. The Philadelphia

Iuquirer

thinks the

committee would, even at this late day, in view of the general adverse criticism with which the report has been received, do well to publish all the documents and evidence in their possession on which the freport was based. What the members of the church now want are the facts and figures.

THE long-talked of Ecumenical Council convenes in "the Eternal City" to-day. Its character, composition, purposes, etc., have been sufficiently discusscd in these colums. We do not apprehend that its deliberations or conclusions will materially affect, for good or evil, the condition of any portion of the human family. In this age of free thought,free speech and a free press, human progress is not much affected by the dicta of ecclesiastical courts or councils. It is coming to be understood that, in spiritual as in temporal affairs, "every tub must stand on its own bottom that religion is a personal business between the individual and the Creator, a business in which neither party employs a deputy. We have sincere spect for the personal character of the amiable old gentleman who has summoned many well-meaning men to meet in this Ecumenical Council. We have hoped that lie might be permitted peacefully anj, quietly to end his days in the possession of the paltry shadow of temporal power that the fates have left him. Should the Council, however, transcend its legitimate sphere, there is imminent danger that the fragment of terra Jirma over which Pius now rules may be taken from him and the old man compelled to close his life in exile.

THE Directors of the Franco-American Cable are confident that they will speedily settle the "misunderstanding" with our Government regarding the landing of the line on our shore. The New York ZW« bune

expresses a hope that they will, but thinks Congress will have something to say about the matter, and it is quite certain that Congress will insist upon an equality of privileges and concessions between French and American citizens in regard to the landing of cable lines on the territories of the respective Governments. When all parties understand this, the misunderstanding will disappear.

It is shown, by a statement of accounts just made by the Directors of the French Cable, that the line has turned out to be an exceedingly profitable investment. Itsbusiness and its receipts have gone on largely increasing week by week It began operations in AuguSt last, and in the first three months of its activity its earnings were over $100,000, gold. If no interruption take place, its income for the first year will certainly he over half a million of dollars, and the directois have power to increase this largely lv reducing the price for transmission of messages. The fact, however, that they arc arranging a "mutual tariff book"" with the Anglo-American Company shows the necessity of new lines that will keep up an active competition.

THK .report of the new Secretary of W&r, an'detract of which we printed on Monday, is a straightforward, compact statement of the condition and aperations of the army .during the year. His estimate of army expenses for the coming year is $34,500,000, besides $12,000,000 for fortifications, and for rivers and harbors, which is certfiinlV not an extravagant sum for a"forefe of over 52,000, "men," a large portion of whom are engaged in active service on the plains in protecting .setlers form Indian depredations. He recommends the discontinuance and sale of several out-of-the-w*y and needless arP5l»enals, and tho establishment of about. '&%hree principal arsenals of construction -:4®and deposit on the Atlantic coast, in tfie

Valley of the Mississippi and on the Pacific. There is a quantity of captured lands in various places in Louisisuwand Texas, *which should also be sold. The report is 'accompanied by the report of the General

Of the Army, which is jnttore^ minute ia its details and recommendations,* _: ftsnaise-

Washington bring the information regarding the pending United States Senatorial contest in that State that Congressman ALLISON will* b$ elected for the long term, and Judge CSJOLEY for the short one, although there is a probability that strong opposition .may be de¥filojped against one of ttiem the Southern part of the State, because both of them reside in Dubuque. The members of the Legislature from the Southern counties are aaid to prefer ALLISON to

COOLEY.

-f ANOTHER FISH S20RY.

Arriral of a Sea Serpent fend Baby on the Atlantic Coast—How they Looked, and Haw, After Looking, they

Disappeared—Yiritjof a Sea Captain.

From tho New York Times.] The good ship Scottish Bride, twej -months out from Bordeaux, which arriv-i ed at this port Sunday, was freighted with the story of a large marine monster, which the Captain, as there is no duty on such Ep^Schandise, was enabled ta ilnfold without delay, and made manifest (without the assistance of the Custom House officials) to a wondering reporter yesterday, as folio weth:

When about 200 miles off Delaware Bay, on the edge of the Gulf Stream, in latitude 38° 16', and longitudes 74° 8',i the weather grew suddenly calm, and they saw the great sea serpent.

CAPTAIN ALLEN'S STATEMENT. Captain Allen is a bluff seamen, who has followed the ocean as a profession for the last ten years. He is the very type of jan American skipper, and all the state"m&ite he makes in regard to the serpent are worthy of belief. He states that on the 2d of this month, when in the posi tion above set down, he descended to his cabin at about noon. He was just about eating his dinner when the second mate descended the cabin stairs, and, in an excited manner, told him his presence was' required on deck. Thinking the ship had sprung a leak or that some other dire mishap had befallen them, he dropped the tempting morsel before him, and rushed up. When he arrived on deck h§ found the crew assembled on the starikj&rd side" of-the vessel, looking with awe-stricken faces into the water. Not knowing the meaning of their strange conduct, he also went there, and a sight met his eye the memory of which will never fade.

THE SERPENT.

T: During the nforning the weather had been rather blustering. The wind had „hfeen blowing from "all quarters" at'the same time. But now there had come a calm, and the water was quiet, and as clear as glass, although the sky was covered with dark, heavy clouds, that threatened to burst forth into a delugeat any moment. Upon approaching the side of the vessel, the Captain saw in the water beneath a monster Such as he had never seen before. It was about twenty-five feet in length, and proportionately thick its head was very large and flat, while at each side, on the extreme edge, were set two bright scintillating eyes„\^hicli, he says, looked dangerous and wicked. Its back was covered with large scales like the crocodile about three inches in lenght, which hookec. together and formed an impenetrable armor. Its belly was a tawny yellow color, and altogether hideous. It was accompa nied by a smaller specimen of its offspring. This was but a few feet in length, but in shape and ooloir closely resembled the larger one.

THE EFFECT UPON THE: SAILORS. With the usual superstition that always takes hold of this class, they regarded the serpent with a sort of religious horror, and all the efforts of the Captain to have them make some attempt- to capture it was abortive. They looked upon it as something supernatural, and were not diposed to meddle with it. The thing was about four feet from the vessel, was lying but a few feet below the surface of the water, and was easily discernible to all on board. The Captain gave orders to have a boat lowered to attack the monger, but in the meantime the attention of the smaller one was called to the presence of the vessel. It raised a few inches bove the surface, and then went toward its larger friend, seemed to tell it of the circumstance and, whatever transpired between them, the larger one raised its head as though to investigate its sour roundings, ana then, with an easy motion it dropped into the ocean. In disai ring, it went head downward, and its body described a circle like a hoop, its tail raising out of .the water,. which tha-Captain says, tapered off to a sharp point.

THE STORM THAT FOLLOWED. j""1 The calm that had beset the vessel in the morning now gave place to a stron] ,northwest breeze, that as night close* around burst into a storm, accompanied by vivid lightning and rolling thunder.

Thesship was tossed about by the relentless waves whichever and anon broke over jher with great fury, and during the whole !of this fearful night the sailors would not jgo on deck without lanterns, such was their fear of meeting the monster. Now jand then they would go to the Captain and 'ask his opinion on the probability of that occurence, but he being no wiser than {themselves, would laugh at their fears, and bid them go to their work. 'About morning the storm died away, but !nntil the following day, when they camie in sight of land, the brave men entertained an unexpressed dread, of the re-appear-ance of the monster. ?.|r

THE CAPTAIN'S THEORY.

Captain Allen thinks that the monster came from the regions of Florida, where he has often heard of similar creatures ifrom other shipmasters, and by following jthe warm currcnt of the Gulf Stream, it reached the position'where he found it. In his opinion, it is a deep water animal and he accounts for its appearance so near the surface by the fact of the dark jday, and the monster not knowing how 'high up he was.

11 Raring

Becomes

Maniac Through Fright,

jFrom tho Nashville Banner.] A gentleman from Sparta, Tennessee, gives us the particulars of a sad affair which occured in that part of the country last week. At one of those periodical masquerading* for which the rural districts are celebrated-, the subject of ghosts and spiritual visitations was discussed at great lengthy and with all that exaggeration and high coloring which usually attaches to any theme in which the supernatural plays a part.

When the party broke up one of'the young men of the neighborhood conceived "the idea of frightening two of the ladies, who had some distance to go along a lonely road with their brother. Wrapping himself in a sheet from head to foot, he took a short path and emerged upon the trio from ii copse of bushes, just as they came up. As tlie figure in white became visible moving slowly toward them, jthe trio set up the most horrible shrieks, and fled down the path in the utmost terror. One of the ladies swooned and fell to the ground, while the other reached the house wjth reason unseated, a raving imaniac.

THE

NEW

YORK

Tribune

of Saturday

pays the following tribute to the late ALBEitT D. RICHARDSON,

and greater *tri-

bute no man could have:— "And for his friendliness, what shall be paid of that? Always it went out to meet you afar oft". Always it came with water for your feet and spikenard for your head. pETe was not rich, but what he had was his friend's as fully as it was his own. And greater than the hospitality of his roof or his board, was the hospitality of his sojiL to his friend's needs. And his friend was hot alone the man whom he knew and honored. It was any lonely or miserable, neglected or iliused soul who needed his kindness. There was no sin which his infinite charity could not believe to have some palliation that did not come to view no error for which his toleration had not excuse no offense against himself which he did not freely and fully forgive.?5t ^.ii

THUHLOW WEED tells how he got picked up once, in the following' maner 'During the late war, after the evacuation Of Yorkto'wn bv Gen. McClelfan, I entered a car 6na Philadelphia train and sal by a gentleman who Wore a military- fcap but showed no other sign ofmilitary ranW We got intQ a discu^oji of4 McQlellan's campaign on the'peninsula. iTe defended him mildly, and I answered with a Bcorching exposition' of his: indaipacitv and Jblunders, demonstrating them fyl^y When we reached Trenton, came up and sainted my to deferentially, and, on inqn" that had been talking to self."

Beauty in Exchange for ..Wealth and Position—A few Instances of such Trades by the Hamilton Fantiily. FromtheNewYorkEvening Post.]

sm..

Frenchmen eefiilbm marry women for the sake of their bj^iuty,* bpt among iwiericanei and. Englismen faces are fortfifites to* the j&ssessors. The'marriages of the Enpiish Duke of Abercoin's daughafl'ord a significant proof of what beauty does for a family. While five of these young ladies—by no means liberally dowered by their father—are already married to wealthy Peers, and a sixth' is engaged to the heir 6f a Duke, the eight daughters of a Marquis are without husbands. Since the days of the celebrated Gunning? no family has in this'f&jjpect •been BO fsmoqi a$ THE Haafiiltpna. trowed, the Jattisf.are the more reniarkable of. the two for while there were but two beautiful Gunnings, there are seven ladies Hamilton, and all of them beauties.

One is the wife of the Earl of Dalkeith, the heir of Bold Buccleuch others are the wives of the Earls of Litchfield, Durham and Mount Edgecombe, another is the affianced bride of the eldest son of the Duke of Malboro, while the yonngeat was married a few weeks ago to the young Marquis of Lansdowne.

The last wedding excited in the fashionable and political world a vast deal of interest especially, perhaps, because, while the 'youthful bridegroom is the head of a famous Whig house, his beautiful bride is the daughter of the most aris-

The marriage^ was" lit' feet, Ihf flmdn of 'two great historic houf&i The Lands'downas' spfiiigl'fom the ancient' Earls of Kerry, and one of the Marquis' peerages dates from the year 1181. In the seventeeth century the then Earl of Kerry, "a sort of King in his own country." as his successor was long after described by theViceryy of Ireland—married the daughter of perhaps the most celebrate*! Belf-made J$riglishman of thr seventeeth centufy, Sit- ^illiam Po^ty who rose from the position of an apothecary to that of a Physician General to the army, and subsequently made a survey of Ireland, on terms extremely favorable to his own pocket. He was, in fact, a "carpet-bagger," who contrived to get large grants of forfeited lands, scattered through various parts of the south and west of Ireland. In the course of time, by the death of his male heirs, all there estates centered in the heirs of his daughter, the Countess of Kerry, and the vast properties thus acquired are those allud&l to by Mr. Stewart Trench in the work which he lately published, called "Realities of Irish Life," with whose pages mapy of our readers are no doubt familiar.

During the past century the Lansdowne family has, however, become famous in connection with English politics and society rather than with Irish land. The third Marquis, grandfather of the present peer, acquired, beside his celebrity as a liberal and sagacions politician, a high reputation in the character of a judicious and munificent patron of art, and a popular leader of intellectual society in high life. Lansdowne House, in London, and Bowood, in Wiltshire, acquired a social fame .little if at all inferior to that of the Holland House, so eloquently and affec tionately described by Lord Macaulay in his graceful essay commemorative of its accomplished owner. Every Englishman and foreigner of distinction Was a welcome guest in the mansion of this modern Maecenas and probably every American of eminenee who, during the last twenty yeaas visited England, has fonad .'himself enjoying the refined hospitalities' of the representative of the ancient chieftains of Kerry. The Marquis was more than once offered a Dukedom, but as

A Son IJnablc to Bury His Father Be cause He Hasn't Time. 7 From the Dubuque Herald.]

A fqyidaya ago.acase was received at the express offace in this city which at once pjsjved the nature of its contents—it was a box shell in the form of a coffin, jand bore upon its top the simple address, »"T. A., Dubuque." This was all the clue dbtainable as to its destination, and very naturally the worthy agent of the express company was nonplussed, he did not know whose remains were enclosed or to whose I care they were consigned. Hedeternined upon opening the box and discovering whether any additional information Could ibe gained. A screwdriver soon performed the operation, and disclosed an injier coffin with a plate bearing an inscription which solved the mystery, and left no doubt upon his mind. The next step was comparatively easy. A messenger was dispatched to the nearest relative of the deceased in the city announcing the reception of the remains. No notice being taken'for sortie time, and consequently no ^application recieved for its removal, the agontr went and accosted the individual in person, representing that the casket contained his father's body, at must at -once ihe removed. The .merchant—for it was a,"merchant, and a well-known, one, too exclaimed in an off-hand manner, that !"he. did not expect it would arrive that jday, but that he would send a messenger •for it, as he hadn't time to attend to it

express functionary could say no reasoning or expostulations would have proved a waste of time, so he departed, wondering at the extraordinary scene W had witnessed, and almost believing that he had "seen a vision." But it was 10 vision it was a stern Reality, ahd such 1 reality as w,e trust for the sake of civilzed society may never again be heard of.
