There Is every reason to believe that the great saldier Is rapidly nearlng the end of his earthly career. Tbe Associated Fress dispatches indicate very grave fears at the General's home. Colonel Fred Grant said, yesterday: ,lMy father Is a very sick man; there is no use denying the fact." The result of a consultation of medical xen confirms the worst fears regarding his mouth a Section the cinceroua growth at the root of his tongae is hardening and atesdlly growing wone. Later: At a late hour lait night we received a private d I? patch front New York announcing that the General was not expected to live through the night. Ccsteary to general belief, statistics show that there are more deaths in clear, cold weather than in a mild, moist Winter. Tni Nationalists of Dublin will have a monster meeting in PWaix Park to-day to denounce Parliament for unseating O'Brien. Rev. J. H.

A Jcdgi in Washington gives the profound opinion that a puppy becomes a dog at the end of his first year. It takes a longer time for some folks to reach puppydom and dudedorn which lies In a neighboring province. Tire North Carolina Legislature has passed a stringent law for tbe suppression of objectionable literature, and, under it, the cheap illustrated papers which are doing so ranch mirchief will not be allowed in the State. Relative to the proposed monument in honor of Indiana soldiers, Mr. Campbell, of Hendricks County, is of the opinion that the law of eternal fitness requires that it should be built by funds contributed by men who did not serve ia the war. It is stated that more than one hundred brass bonds will be in attendance at the inauguration of Mr. Cleveland. These alone will occupy nearly all ot Pennsylvania avenuo, while the "concord of sweet sounds" will be heard for miles. iL HorzEAtr, of the British Royal Observatory, has published the first result of the last transit of Venus, in which he places the tun's distance at 91.75G.S00 miles. Of the previous determinations of the distance made since 1SC2 Leverrier's was nearest, being 91,357,000 miles. A frixnd in referring to an article in last Sunday's Sentinel ssys: Let me call your attention to a mistake In the Soldier" article in lait Sundav'a Rentin!, it was not Lieutenant Curtis who destroyed the MerriniJic: the rebel, destroyed that ; vessel to prevent u laning into our nana alter ner encounter Tri tri tae Monitor. What "Soldier" really wanted to tell, was Lieutenant Cushing'a attack upon the ' Albemarle." which was destroyed by him by means of a torpedo; that is the heroc act referred to, la fact. A coRRisroxDisT of the British Medical Journal aaya that Da Quincy was systematic in his use of opium, bat that Colejldge took opium by fits and starts, and cftca such heavy doses as tojoverpower him. He did this on one occasion when he had ngaged to lecture before the London Philosophical Society. The hour arrived, but the can was in blissful f orgetl nines of all material matters. THE LOT OF THE OLD. One of the sad features ot very old age is the lack of companionship. One by one Irlends and relatives drop away either by death or other causes until, when a person if aches a very old age, heorske stands aloue. A writer in the London Spectator referring to this says that the very old are fortunate if, outside the circle of blood relations, they retain even one or two dote friscda; and, continuing the subject, "th j to coma men and women, especially to these much dependent on conversation to etimulaU their natures and 'put then in rpiritV is the meet irremediable ci leeres. They feel ts if Iiis hid

i

altered, and tbe rery sunlight were leas in ipiring. Add that all the indulgences of hope, including day dreaming. becomelvaoId reason sho ving ths unreality and grade ally cease, and we may admit that even under favorable circumstances old age ia not an enviable condition, more especial ly among Englishmen and Americans, who feel little of that inetinctive reverence for age, and belief in its nearnen to the divine, which characterizes all Asia and a large pcrtion of Southern Europe. The Teutons think allusions to gray hairs, which Southerners regard as solemn, and will accept even in a theater with applause, a little rhetorical or artificial. The respect for the old is not gone, but a certain reverence is. if it ever existed among us, which, rememberiDg Shakespeare's lines and our own workhe use arrangements, we naif Incline to dcubt."

AN ENGLISH DYNAMITER. English and Englishmen never seem to tire of denouncing the Irish dynamiters who have been keeping the entire British Empire on the anxious eeat for many months. In truth, the entire world seems to have been more or less affected by the recent explosions in London. It is with considerable surprise, therefore, that we notice a pit ce of English deviltry in tbe same line. The information comes from the letter of Private Lewis Barratt, Forty-third Light Infantry, a native of Leicester, stationed at Malapuram, in the Madras Presidency, and the Leicester journalist prefaces the extract by saving it "will be perused with interest at a time when we are watching with such extreme concern the military operations in the Soudan" and, we may add, when "we" are denouncing with such virtuous indignation tbe inhumanity of blowing down a lobby of the House of Commons. The following is an extract from Private Barratt' a letter to his father George Barratt He says: "I have had a bit of good luck lately. We have had a break out here amongst tbe Mopley tribe. Volunteers were asked to take a lighted charge of dynamite, and place it under the gate with a visw of dislodging them. I accepted that duty, but am sorry my attempt failed, as it did not explode. I took another one, and this time had the satisfaction, just as I had got under cover, of seeing the gate blown up. The dynamite bad made a road, and it was soon all over. I never witnessed such a sickly sight in all my life. I could not tell you my mind, though I had done it, when I saw fifteen killed and one wounded, and he died about four hours after. But they got a deal of infoimation out of him. I got a good tip for my work from our officer, Mr. Cardew, over twenty rupees, that is two pounds in English coin, and specially recommended to the Commander in-Chief of India. I get promotion shortly, and bear a good name in my company." The poor wretches who were blown to atoms seem to have taken lefnge in a Hindoo temple. In commenting upon the frightful affair, the editor of "United Ireland" says: "Tbe House ot Commons is, of course, a much more sacred place than a Hindoo temple; and, of course, it is a more heinous crime to scare the British public than to send sixteen Hindoos Into eternity in fragments. Still it is not upon the whole, perhaps, a more creditable feat of daring to a world-wide empire to explode an infernal machine in tbe midst of a wretched hilltribe cooped up in a temple than for Ford's emissaries to penetrate into the heart of the English Parliament House, with their lives in their hands, to explode their squibs In an empty chamber. Nor is it altogether a satisfactory apology tor mangling the seventeenth Hindoo to learn that his ingenious manglers managed to 'get a deal of information out of him' before he died, and that the successful dynamitara was rewarded with 'a good tip for my work from our officer,' and that the t t i : 1 i i Li. I J i ring-do as an honor to his native city. In point of fact, if Private Barratt had used his charge ot dynamite against instead ot for England, he would have been a miscreant of the blackest dye, and would most properly have swung by the neck until he was dead from the nearest lamp-post. But that makes all the difference in the world." THE TALKING THEATRICAL BORE. The people who do so much talking in theatres, operas and other places of amusement surely cannot appreciate the large amount of discomfort which they produce among those who occupy positions near them. We have frequently called attention to the matter in the columns of ;the Sentinel, and would once again strongly urge it upon the attention of.those who indulge themselves in the habit. We are glad to say that it is not by any means confined to Indianapolis. Human nature seems to be the same the world over. The experience of a New Yorker is told briefly in a paper of that city. He say 8: "I was driven from the theater. The box next to mine was full of beauty and fashion, the diamonds would distract any woman, and never since I was in London have I seen such startling franknesi of attire. They talked and laughed loudly and incessantly, they ignored the subdued hisses I of their more humble neighbors, and drove , f ,.i.M me in disgust from the place. In commenting upon the disgusting habit the New York Sun headlines its article, tncs, "Would a Tomato Do It?" and suggests that a thoroughly ripe tomato or a kindred vegetable would meet the case of bores in places ot amusement. Perhaps this would be too harsh a mode of interrupting . i i . . me cooings oi mer lovers or me nnuerorea chap who is telling everybody around him that he saw "that play in New York or London or Paria," etc., ad nauseam. Such advice might be expected from Leadvllle or other mining towns of the West. It is all the more significant when it comes from a metropolitan journal. The eame paper remarks that the habit is on the increase; it grows from bad to worse. With every season the excesses of the boxes grow more and more intolerable, and if they continue they must lead to the violent inculcation of a lesson that might be more easily learned by heeding the admonitions of good taste, good breeding and common sense. The habit is not always confined to places of amusement; it is spreading into the churches. Frequently in the back pews there is entirely too much laughing and convenation going cn, which sadly interferes with the devotions and quiet of the occasion. The New York Sua, which we have alluded to, and as we have remarked, sheets ths

tomato cure, in a recent article discusses the subject at some length. In the discuss!cn that paper says: "The experience which is derived from steady attendance darin- a eeaioa of opera leada to tbe conclusion that the very grand patrons ot the lyric stage and the people who imitate them, care little about music, almost as little, in fact, as they know absut it. They regard grand opera as the occasion of an essential social spectacle of which they themselves are an Indispensible part. That tbe music shall be good is with them a matter cf ceremonial import, and not a requirement of musical taste or education. They want Pattl, not for the sake of her voice, but

because she sings better, in a pecuniary einse, than anv one else; and they are concerned only with the brilliancy of the social display, and care nothing about the score. Ttese people are insensible to rebuke; their vulgarity is impregnable, and they are as unconecious of their selfishness as the women among them are fearless of takiDg cold. Formeily this was not the cai?. Grand opera and lesser opera grew up in New York, and won the intelligent appreciation of all sorts of people. The lovers of music were not confined to the floar and the galleries as now, and separated from each other by a tier of noisy beauty, dressed in tbe style of the Apocalypse, and chattering like magpies. "It looks as if Murray Hill had become an unwalled resort for people whose mania for fashion had developed into acute social hysteria. There would be no objection to their making an inaudible spectacle of themselves at the opera; for a majority of them are monstrous pretty, alluring enough to take one's breath away, radiant and resplendent In their jewels and fripperies, and uncommonly good to look upon in every way. If at Milan, or any other home of opera in Italy, they were to behave as they do in New York, Nemesis, in the shape of the overripe tomato or some such handy vegetable, would fall with fearful impact upon their unprotected anatomy, producing results which it were far safer to imagine than describe." OUR FOREIGN POPULATION. General Franc's A. Walker, in a recant, lecture on "The United States as Seen in the Census," gives some Interesting facts regarding our foreign population. The first census of foreign birth was taken in 1S."0. The percentage was then DOS of the whole population. In ISOthe percentage was 13.16; in IS70, 1 1 4 1 ; in 1S0, 13.32. The great mass of foreign population reside in New England, around the great lakes, and In the northern central portion of the country as well as in various regions of the frontier. Tbe South has very little foreign population, except in Texas. In New England the most part reside along the Canadian border and in Massachusetts and the States on the sound. The foreign population reaches its maximum where the general population reaches its maximum, along the latitude of 40 and 41. along the longitude 73 and 74. Sicce 1S.'0 the proportion of foreign Irish in every 10,000 has fallen from 4.2S5 to 2,770; of English has fallen somewhat. The Germans have gained in proportion, and the Swedhh, British American and unenumerated nationalities have largely gained. New York stands first in the aggregate foreign population, and also first in the Irish, German and English population. Pennsylvania stands 8f cond in aggregate foreign population, Illinois third and Massachusetts fourth. Massachusetts is third in Irish population, fifth in English and nineteenth in German. The Chinese are still found mainly in Pacific States, and their increase has not equalled what was once supposed it would. In 1S50 the Chinese population was 7fSj in 1SG0, S3.CC0; in 1870, C3.000: in 1SS0, 105.000. Our total population stands G native to 1 for eign. The criminal proportion stands: For j eign, 13,000; colored, 17,000; native, 30,000. j in each nationality there are more children having a foreign father than a foreign mother, due to the larger number of male Immigrants than of female. The latest Cabinet slate runs as follows: Secretary of 8tate Thomas F. Bayard, of Delaware. Secretary of the Treasury Daniel Mannlxg, of New York. Secretary of the Interior L. Q. C. Lamar, of Mississippi. Attorney General Augustus II. Garland, of Arkansas. Postmaster General W. P. Vila?, of Wisconsin. Secretary of the Navy William C. Whitney, of New York. Secretary of War William C. Endicott, ot Massachusetts. The foregoing is considered reliable by some level-headed folk, but Mr. Cleveland says nothing and declares that he will not announce his Cabinet until the proper time. Hey. Dr. Parker, of the City Temple, London, has a unique way of announcing the collection. When he concludes his sermon he says: "The offering will now be taken from these who care for these things, and from no others." As a rule, every one present gives something. PERSONALS Mark Twain will give readings from his own works in England next year. Senator Fbyk wears clothes spun and made up at his own woolen mill at Lewiston, Me. Mrs. Cynthia Griffin, of Waycross, Ga., is the mother of twenty-six children, all of whom she reared to manhood and woman hood. Samuel W. Small, author of the "Old Si" negro character sketches, has abandoned the field of humor and will enter the Episcopal I ..-i.i,I ministry. Senator Gablamd has a strong aversion to seeing any of his children married, and did not attend his son's (Sanders-Garland) wedding last week. Colonel William Goodwin, who died on Suudav at Chelsea, Mass., was a soldier of the War of 1812, and was appointed Post- ! master by President Van Buren, Georg a Bancroft, the historian, Is said to ! have been the only person in the audience who paid strict attention throughout to the I oration of Mr. Winthrop and Mr. Daniel in the Chamber of .the House of Representatives on Saturday. Mr. Webster was once spending the su m mer in a town near Boston, and, as was his custom, attended church regularly both morning and afternoon. On one occasion it fell to the lot of an unfledged youth to try his wings in that pulpit. He rose, as was natural, with some trepidation, to begin the service. This trepidation gradually incre:sd till, toward the closa ot the hymn,

he faltered perceptibly, and as he sat down by the side cf the minister of the parish he whispered: ''Doctor, I don't know to whom thoee eyes belong which are directly facing me, but they are quite too much for me, and I can cot preach." Mr. Webster was responsible for an extemporaneous discourse that morning. Boston Adveitiser. David Dudley Field attributes his remarkable health at eighty to h?s custom of walking down town to his office every morning, inferentially advising people to follow his example, which statement leads Town Topics to quote the saying about a rx Jin's foes being those of his own household, Mr. Cyrus W. Field, David Dudley's brother, being one of the principal owners of the "L" roads. Joseph Cook says that a "preacher standing with a cigar in one hand and the Word in the other" is a rpectacle which arousej attention. A Boston clerical smoker asks why Mr. Cook should aiouse more attention

with a cigar In his hand than when eating flapjacks or holding a bsotjack. "There is no more wickedness," be adds, "in a cTgar tban in a plate of hash, and one is not more congruous with what Mr. Cook calls the Wcrd than the other," Invited to deliver the SU Patrick's Day oration this year before the Irishmen of Ottawa, Canada, Mr. John Boyle O'Beilly, of tie Pilot (Boston), inquiiei of the Eaglish Home Secretary if Her Majesty's Government would on that oc3s'on grant him inmunity from arrest on British s:il for his complicity in the Fenian operations of 1S';G. The answer was that such immunity "could notrafoly be granted." So, although his countrymen in Canada are still aox;oui for him to visit them, says the Pi 'ot, "as he can not afford to alarm his family and perhaps seriously interfere with his business by such an experiment, it is not probable that h9 will go." A while ago some gentlemen, among whom was benutor Laniar, made a morning call on Clara Morris. They found her at breakff st, althongh the hour wag noon. Ia her lap was her packet of morning letters. She amused her friends by reading to them some of the thoughts of her uncommonly blight correspondents. The Senator saw an envelope, and said: 'That's Watterson's writing. Do let ns hear what he has to siy!" The actress complied, and read the first four eentences through, which turned out to ba this: "Clara, I am satisfied you are my enemy. If not, why do you speak to severely about my friends? Wby, O why, in your last do you allude to your admirer and my hero, Lamar, as Old Soap Locks? It is terrible." Tableau! The brilliant company, the Senator .included, were sensible enough to dissipate the situation with a laugh. Florence Marryat has been on a lecture tour in this country, and ehe is used up by it. "Before I came to America," ehe says, "I was urged to wear my prettiest dresses, because Americans appreciated things of that kind. Those beautiful gowns have been ruined, sweeping the dirty stages of tho little concert halls through the oil regions and mining towns of the West. Of Canada I can not complain, but since I entered the United States my tour has been one continual round of hardships. I. would get off tbe train in the evening to be driven through tbe rain or snow to the hail. Tben I would frequently be obliged to change my traveling dress in a cold dressing-room, and then, after a steady two hours of talking and singing, would be obliged to hurry on my traveling costume again and drive in the open carriage either to another train or to some dingy country ho?el."

New Orleans Picayune (February 14).

WW r . 45v- .-4 - r ..... - . - " -- t JAMES GILBERT CCKNIKGIIAM, ARRESTED AT THE TOWER Or LONDON AFTER THE EXI LOSIOK IN THAT III3toeic sTP.rcTrnr. The explosion at the Tower of London and the Palace of Westminster, on January 21, were followed by the arrest of several persons 'suspected of being concerned in them, of whom James Gilbert Cunningham, a rresUd shortly after the occurrencs at the Tower, engages public interest the most. It teens that he is a native of Cork. After havirg lived in the United States some year?, be went to England last December. He is about twenty two years of age, and describes himself as a laborer. The statement is rxade that he has relatives In New York, including a sister at one time employed as a domestic servant in a hot?!, There Is no prcof of this, however. The English policS have ascertained that he went from Liverpool to London, and took lodgings under the name of Gilbert. He afterward changed his place cf residence and called himselt Dalton. The effects he took to hfs first lodgic8 in London, included a brown trunk, which be sa'd belonged to a friend, and which mytteriously disappeared a day or two before he left the house, aud which he replaced by a smaller blsck trunk, in which he afterwaids kept a good stock of clothes. He bad also, It ia alleged, a black satchel which contained articles of clothing. At the bottom of this the detective police are said to have fourdaemall copper tube, containing the detonating mixture of chloride of potassium and fulminate of mercury, which Is used for exploding charges of dynamite or gun cotton, and is not used for any other purpose. It is further stated that he gave fahe accennts of the place where he had lodged at Liverpool, and of his having been employed in that city. He is said to have visited the Tower of London on free days more than once, and was seen there on the day of the explosion, before and after the time when it happened. He is prosecuted by the British Government and defended by a Liverpool lawyer. On the 2d of February the above statements were made in the court at Bow street, London, and on the following day tbe police arrested a man in whose possession was found a heavy brown box, supposed to be the cne removed from Cunningham's first London ledcinss. This man gave the name of Harry Burton, and was arraigned with Cunningham at tbe adjourned examination of the latter, on the inn. At this hearing tbe prosecuting lawyer created a sensation by announcing that he would withdraw tbe charge of conspiracy, upon which Cunningham had been examined previously, and substitute that of high treason felony against both piiEoners jointly. He proc eded to say tbat Cunningham bad not landed in Liverpool until December 20, four days before Burton. Both of them proceeded to London, and were seen in company together on January 10. Cunningham had been in Kcgland at the time when the Scotland Yard explosions occurred and dynamite was found placed against the Nelson Column. Barton was in England from March until September, 1SS I. I would be Bhown that Cunningham and Barton were active in causing the explosions at the Gower Street Station on the Underground Railway in London, cn January 2. IS Sö. Thus far the testimony taken against Cunningham with regard to the explosion on the London Underground Railway, makes it appear that both he and Barton were probably concerned in it The police are at work on the case against the prisoners, which is incomplete. Its developments, whether for cr against tbe accused, are observed with great interest on this side of the Atlantic. We may add that should the prisoners be convicted of hih treason felony they will probably die at the end of a rope. A NIGHT WATCHMAN SHOT. John Sweed, Night Watchman at tbe Pan-Handle Freight Depot, Shot by a Car Breaker Named Jack Smith. While making bis rounds about 12 o'clock last night, John Sweed, watchman at the Pan-Handle Depot, noticed tbat the door of one of the freight cars standing on the side track had been forced open, and feeling convinced that the man who had done the work was still inside of the car, started to go in after him. Before he could do so, however, the man jumped out and began shooting at him, one ball taking effect in the right nipple in the breast. Not by any means daunted, however, Sweed drew his gun and popped away at the thief, shcoting him in the leg. By this time several police officers arrived on the scene and the car breaker was removed to the Central Station, where he was recognized as Jack Smith, a gentleman well known to the coppeis, and one who has done time in the Michigan City retreat. He was slated for car breaking and shooting to kill, and his injury was attended to by Police Surgeon Hedges. The wound is a slight one, being in the fleshy part of the leg. Dr. Marsee attended to ßwced's injuries, and there is nothing to indicate that the wound will prove faial. Sweed resides on East Market street. THE CHUBCHES.
