CURRENT NOTES.

TnE'"Sentinel" goes back on Hendricks and goes in for Scott. ''MAYOR HALL Our Only Hope," is the'exciting theme of "Herald" a leader. That it sac}.

Hos. M. C.KERR prudently denies the Ose of his name in connection with the office of Governor.

CLOSE up the lines is now the order of the Republicans and Reform Democracy of New York in their war upon ring.

the

VIRGINIA politically is gaining strength every day. The Republicans are exerting themselves to reduce the Democratic ma jority in the next Legislature, and are confident of success.

THEY still keep up the flogging system in the English army, and the reports of the last year show one hundred and eighty victims of the barbarism, with an average of two hundred lashes to the man.

THE London "Daily News" has but lately published its correspondence of the late war in a book form, and the German Emperor has but lately given the correspondent who wrote it the medal allowed by custom to the most distinguished non combatant.

THE Atlantic cables were silent from Saturday night to Monday morning, which sufficiently explains that interest ing "special" concerning the Queen of England. It was necessary to have some news, and under such circumstances the "World" was nevtr known to fail.

THE Boston "Time"" says: That little boy used sound sense when, in reply to his teacher, who to'd him he would never be President of the United States unless he attended better to his lessons, said "I don't expect to be: I'm a Democrat

WE ARE indebted to Hon. James H. Baker, Commissioner of Pensions, for the "Decisions of the Secretary of the Interior," as to Pension and Bounty Lands, from 1861 to 1871, recently complied and issued by the Pension Office. A volume containing the Rulings and Orders of the Commissioner of Pensions during the same period is soon to follow.

GENERAL SAMUEL FENTON CARY has gone to the iescue of Tweed and Tammany. Even the Cincinnati "Enquirer mildly remonstrates: "Our old friend General Cary, we fear, has gone too far in his party devotion. He has been making a speech to the Tammany organization in New York." And this is th man who was wont to sigh like a nor' wester over the "galling yoke of party slavery."

THE Memphis "Ledger," reminded by Garret Davis, also remembers Millard Fillmore, and believes him to be still living. It would delight to see him Pres ident but has no faith to believe he ever will be. The Ledger says the Democrats will do no such sensible thing as to nom inate him, but that, they will "put forward a man good in every respect, but with all the chances of defeat against him."

COL. FORNEY, in the Philadelphia "Press," tells the Democracy that "when they realize that Colonel SCOTT will have nothing to do with the party that has favored rebellion and repudiation, has no prouder record than hostility to our great system of continental railroads, and is covered all over with the sins of Tammany Hall, they will Btart ofi on a new voyage of discovery, which will result in a total wreck by the re-election of Grant."

IF THERE is a strong revolutionary spirit in England, which threatens to overthrow the monarchy, and if a general feeling of dissatisfaction reigns among the people, it does not appear from the speech of Mr. Gladstone, the English Premier, made at Blackheath, near London, on Saturday last, that he knows anything about these things. Nor does it appear from his remarks concerning his sovereign that there is the least trouble existing between her and her ministers— the numerous reports to the contrary notwithstanding.

WE AGREE with the Indianapolis "News" that the custom of the Executive selecting one day of thanksgiving for the nation is a good one. It originated during the war when our circumstances demanded unity in all things as far as practicable and it is fitting that it should be kept up. The war abolished the idea that we were separate nations, each State constituting a government of its own, bound only to the Federal Union by ties of convenience and interest. We are one nation, one people, united and indivisible. Let us then have a day of thanksgiving as we now have one currency, and wherever it is possible let there be unity time. At the present time of writing whether our souls or our pockets are con- (twelve hours) he seems determined not

cerned. THE New York "Tribune" finds indications of the breaking down of the Mormon hierarchical system growing stronger and stronger every day. The Prophet i.« believed to be a fugitive from justice. Several of his chief lieutenants are in custody, charged with capital crimes. The laws of the United States are enforced in Utah lor the first time since the settlement of the Territory. Polygamous hue bands are placed by the Hawkins verdict at the mercy of their first and only legitimate wives and the Mormon women are freed from the degrading bondage in which the Church has held them ever since a revelation instructed Brigham Young that the secret of sanctity was to marv a dozen spouses at once. The faith of the Saints may be strengthened by "persecution." They may cling all the more earnestly to their peculiar creed because the hand of the Gentiles is armed against them. That is a matter with which we have no conpers but when they substitute the rule of a hierarchy for the civil government established by the Constitution of the United States, and teach that their Bishops and Elders are superior in secular matters to the laws of the country, they open an issue which we cannot affect to despise. Their religion may take care of itself but their civil polity must be brought into conformity with republi" can principles.

EVEN the New York "Express" calls the hiatory of the despoiling the city of its lawful income by the Tammany ring a sad record. It is indeed all that, and a most disgraceful one besides. The new Court House is only worth three inillioiis of dollars, and yet in its unfinished state it has cost thirteen millions. The armories in two years have cost three millions and a quarter, and that nearly would have paid for houses and land together. The city printing account in less than that period has run up to seven millions and out of these three items and a few others nineteen millions and a quarter of dollars are missing which ought to be in the city treasury. Is not all this both sad and disgraceful?

THE Philadelphia "Inquirer1" rejoices that it is cleared up now—the defeat of the French army at Woerth, at Mars-la-Tour, Gravelotte and final surrender at Sedan. Louis Napoleon was deprived of the opportunity of using his favorite weapon of offense and defense, the inevi table plebiscitum. Had the aggiessive Bismarck and belligerent Moltke only given the great and astute Emperor a chance to decide the struggle by means of a plebiscite, instead of forcing him to downright battles the French would have marched to Berlin. As the nephew of his uncle was not allowed to employ the plebiscitum then, he is very anxious for a chance to use it now. Only it is a trifle amusing to hear this once mighty warrior, the great modern champion of Ctesarism, talking so glibly of restoring his dynasty by votes instead of swords and guns.

AN ANGRY ELEPHANT,

lie Knocks over a Cage of Kangaroos —Seasons Some Lumber—Kills Mule—Smashes a Wagou—Pnlis up a Big Apple Tree—Tries to Murder

Some Yankees and Gets a Thrashing. f^-W' From the New Haven Register.}

O'Brien's Menagerie exhibited in Meri den yesterday, according to advertisement, at the usual grounds on State street. Just after the close of the afternoon performance, the great elephant Mogul took it into his head to enact a tragedy not on the bills, so, walking majestically out of the enclosure, he went for his keeper in a fit of rage. The keeper sought refuge under the cage containing kangarooes, which Mogul disdainfully turned over in a jiffy, and walked through the canvass out of doors. Then he went on a tour of inspection, and if not "seeking whom he might devour," he certainly seemed willing to accommodate any body or anything that might wish to setto. Meeting a pile of lumber in an ad' joining yard, he quickly spread the boards in good shape for seasoning. Then meeting in his path one of the mulea belonging to the company, he ran his tusks completely through its body, pinning it to the ground. The next obstruction in His Majesty's path was a wagon belong ing to Messrs. Grether & Hall, which he scornfully seized with his trunk and raising it, smashed it to pieces then he returned to the dead mule, and again plunged his tusks through it, and break ing one of *liis tusks close to the jaw sauntered carelessly into State street, with none to molest or to make him afraid the crowd following at a safe distance be hind, while belore and about him every body seemed to be very busy in getting out of his way.

The keeper and other attaches of the menagerie soon ralied, and by strategy and good tactics he was induced to enter a field belonging to \Ir. Camp, thence into an orchard where he indulged in the pastime of teaming and smashing whole lengths of picket fence. The novel mode of subduing him temporarily, by shoot ing him in the face and trunk with buckshot, was adopted. Some fifty heavy charges were fired at him the stinging effect actecd well as a slight check upon his operations, during which his keeper carelessly approach ed and chained him to an apple tree about twelve inches in diameter hich was no sooner discovered by the enraged animal than he instantly, and without apparent effort, but with the greatest ease, tore it up by the roots and again created the gretest conster nation among the immense crowd who had now collected in the immediate vicinity. All went, and stood not upon the order of going, but some tall running was done, and some laughable incidents occurred in the stampede, leaving the ground free to Mogul and his would-be captors. He was by great daring and agility on the part of his keeper, again secured by chaining bis hind feet to a very large tree here he was left for the night, and a guard stationed with rifles loaded with ball, to kill him should he again break loose during the night. He was evidently much chagrined at his confinement, and continued to "snort" and struggle to break the chain, afford ing much excitement throughout the city during the entire night, but fortunately he was held until 5 o'clock this morning, when his keeper, with the assistance of the entire force of the concern and about 500 citizens, undertook the job of punish ing and subduing the monster. Large ropes and chains were procured, and after many attempts, in which the same were broken quite easily, he was finally, at the end of two hours, thrown down and secu red in that position, when simultaneously his beating began by a dozen men with strong clubs, iron bars, spears, and pitchforks and continued until the men were exhausted, and again renewed from time to time for about two hours, at which time, after many wounds, and pounding enough to seemingly kill him, he was as obstinate as ever. Refusing to surrender, he was left to his own reflections in this condition, and the beating abated for a

At the present

to succumb. A choice he has of doin^ so or being killed, as in his dangerous mood he will not be allowed to rise without evidence of a change of heart. It is estimated that the damage done in his tantrum will cost over $700. Fortunate it is that no lives were lost.

Thanksgiving.

The people of Chicago will be no less ready than those of other parts of (he country to devoutly and joyfully observe the national festival of Thanksgiving on the 30th of November. They doubtless feel inclined at this dale to humbly represent that four weeks of clear and mild weather before Thanksgiving, and a good prospect of two or three more after it, will render the multitudinous rejoicings of a great city, burned out of three square miles of stores and homes, both easier and richer: bnt, in any event, Chicogo will heartily join all the world of our American home in giving thanks and praise to the All-Wise Disposer of the common destiny. If the hardship in our lot has been exceptional, the report of this has brought from the thrilled hearts of many peoples abroad, and numberless communities at home, an outpouring of charity, of kindly words and generous deeds, which may well call forth in UB a peculiar gratitude. And even in the Great Fire, the sparing of life was beyond everything which could have been expected. On the very day that so many homes sank to ashes, in the very hour when the smouldering ruins were yet hot, there went up bursts of thanksgiving such as had never risen during our prosperity, when strong men coming forth from the smoke found wife and children safe.—Chicago Journal.

BAGDAD.

Toward the close of the eighth century the hou*e of Abbas founded on the banks of the Tigris the metropolis of the Mohammedan faith. Bagdad arose in the midst of a scene filled with the fame of ruined cities. Not far off was Babylon, still faintly traced out on its desolate plain, the stone pictures of Neneveh, and tke palaces ot Seleucia closer still were the loiiy towers of Mevdeh. The fallen cities it is said, were rifled to complete the grandeur of the sacred capital the Saracen preyed upon the last labors of the As ayrians, and the wealth of the Moslem world and of the conquered Christians was employed in providing a proper home for the vicegerent of Heaven. Mohammedan writers labor with vain epithets to paint the splendor of Bagdad when, under the vigorous tule of Haroun al Kashid and his vizer, Jaffier, it suddenly outstripped in prosperity and holiness all earthly cities. It was the central shrine of the Moslem faith. The Commander of the Faithful ruled over its people. The power of Haroun was felt in distantSpain on and the banks of the Indus The Tigris oncemorelabored beneath the commerce of mankind the merchants of India met in the bazars of Bagdad the Christian and the fire-worshiper, the Brahmin and the Jew, filled its prosper* ous streets.

It is not probable, therefore, that the Arab accounts are greatly exaggerated. Bagdad possessed a powerful citadel, a circle of lofty walls, a royal palace on the Tigris whose endless halls were adorned with all the graces of Saracenic architecture and mosques of unequaled splendor. It was the most populous city of an age when Rome was a half-deserted ruin, when London and Paris were barbarous towns, and Charlemagne' was vainly striving to make his capital, in the wilderness of Flanders, a centre of Western progress. The humane spirit of early Mohammedanism had filled Bagdad with hospitals, dispensaries, and edifices of public charity. The private houses of its wealthy merchants were adorned with marble and gold. The graceful court was filled with fountains rich hangings of silk and velvet covered the lofty walls. Divans of satin and tables of costly work manBhip, the richest fruits and flowers, and the rarest wines and viands, set off* those costly banquets at which the degen erate descendants of Mohammed delighted to violate every principle of their austere law

But still more remarkable was the in tellectual position of the Eastern capital, The renown of Babylon or Nineveh had been altogether material the children of the desert surrounded themselves with all the refinements of literature and the arts The wealthy Arabs were educated^ in poetry, music, and the languages com mon schools were provided, at which the humblest citizen might learn to read a,hd write with accuracy the favorite precepts of the Koran. Colleges, taught by pro fessors of eminent attainments, drew throngs of students. Libraries, enriched by the spoils of Greek and Roman thought, teeming with countless volumes, awoke a boundless ardor for letters. The Arab annals abound with notices of fa mous scholars, renowned in every land where the Arabic was spoken of poets, historians, and men of science who had charmed the advancing intellect of the children of the Arabian sands. The caliphs of Bagdad jwere as eager to dis cover a lost manuscript or to enlarge their well-stored libraries as Cosmo or Loren zo the Petrarchs and Boccaccios of the Mohammedan capital were rewarded with useful bounty, and were the friends •f princes and emirs. Bagdad became the centre of a vigorous mental progress whose impulse was at length felt in all the barbarous capitals of Christendom.— Eugene Lawrence, in Harper's Magazine for November. a! *&*»•'Inexorable Business.

In riding down Wabash avenue one can not but be strangely, if not painfully impressed at the sight he sees. It looks almost like sacrilege to see the signs of lawyers, doctors, real estate dealers, wholesale liquor dealers, tobacco dealers commission merchants, wholesale boot and shoe dealers, wholesale dry goods dealers, architects, tailors, banks, telegraph offices, in short every style and variety of trade, traffic and business stuck up over the front doors, in the windows, on veraudahs, of what were late beautiful and luxurious residences—the abode of wealth, beauty and elegance All these one sees in apparently inextri cable confusion, as far down as Twentysecond street, and even farther, until he is convinced that business is no less inex orable than the fire-fiend himself. It drives before it the families, the households and their penates, with the same resistless impetus as did the fire itself, and the constant admonition is to "move on." On the morning of the fire thousands of families moved to what seemed to be places of safety, but hardly would they get fairly unloaded before the advancing flames would warn them to "move onand so it has been with business on Wabash avenue, so lately one of the most elegant and beautiful residence streets on the continent. You can not pass along the avenue without wondering, as you do, while passing through the ruins where have all the people gone to? Thus we see that business, though less destructive, is just as inexorable in its demands, and as irresistible in its onward march as the fire itself.—Chicago Mail.

A PROJECT is now on foot to construct a narrow gauge railroad from Montgom ery, Alabama, to Chattanooga, Tennessee. Six hundred thousand dollars have already been subscribed, says the Gadsden (Ala.) "Times," and books will shortly be opened at other points for receiving sub' scriptions.

THE engagement of Miss Mise, of Washington, grand-daughter of Edward Everett, to M. Hanteville, is reported. A few years ago M. Hanteville married Miss Bessie Fish, daughter of Secretary Fish, who died about a year after her marriage.

THE Chicago Tribune warns merchants of the East not to trust men from Chicago who had no credit before the fire, who left Chicago since the fire,claiming credit and consideration as sufferers by the fire, when they have really lost nothing.

THE Hartford "Post" commenting on Mr, Tilden's remark, thanking God that the cloud began to show its silver lining, says that "if that's the cloud the Tammany gang are under ten to one they steal the lining."
