LARGEST CITY CIRCULATION!
AND MOKE THAN
TWICE THE LARGEST
AGGREGATE CIRCULATION!
Mexico wants satisfaction, and there
are not enough United States troops on
the Rio Grande to givo it to her.
Ghief Justice Sanford E. Church is
understood to bo Tammany’s favorite for
the United States senatorship from New

TnE Chinese language is spoken by
about 350,000,000 people. The English
language is spoken by from eighty to
eighty five millions.
Don Cameron fears that the Working*
man's ticket will allow the Democrats to
oarry Philadelphia next month. If so,
good- bye, Don Cameron !
The New York Radicals hope that Til-
den will join Conkling to overthrow John
Kelly and the Democratic party. Mr.
Tilden is not absolutely a fool.
The members of Christ Church, Bos
ton, the oldest chnroh building in tbo
city, still use the Bible, prayer book and
silverware which were presented by King
George III, in 1733.
TnE Philadelphia Times ruminates thus:
“An ex-Confederato soldier sits in tbo
Ilayes Cabinet, and the Vice President of
the ex-Confodoracy nominated Mr. Ran
dall for Sponkor in the Democratic caucus.
Lot us have peace.”
Senator Kernan, who never knew how
it feels to bo enthusiastic over anything,
predicted in his Utica speech last Satur
day, that New York will elect a Demo
cratic Legislature and tho Democratic
State ticket by over 50,000 majority.
Ben Hill called upon President Uayos,
and on behalf of tho Southern peoplo,

speech at the Democratic soronado.
Blackburn bettor represented Georgia's
sentiment in that speech, than Bon Hill
in his denial.
We ure glad to learn that the advooates

of thoir purpose to move tho reduction of
the tariff and the thorough revision of tho

“He was pretty good at tho play busi
ness,"said Mr. Grant, contemplatively
regarding tho tomb of Shaknpoaro, “but
I should like to have soon him lighting

Committee of Foreign Relations.”—

The Pope’s annual income of $515,000,
allowed by tho Italian Piirliament in its
“Bill of Guarantees,” has annually siuco
December, 1870, boon tendered him in a
singlo bill engraved especially for thnt
purpose, and as regularly boou declined.
The bills wore thou ploood on deposit m
tbo Bank of Italy, at tho Popo'H order,
being oovored into tho treasury if five
years elapse without their being claimed.
The first two havo thus returned to the
nation, bat whenever tho Pope dies bis
heirs will fiud $3,225,000 awaiting their
disposition.
Mu. Fernando Wood, of Now York,
thus expressed himself to a Southerner:
“Sir, you Southern gout lemon havo only
to show your natural and wonted patriot
ism and tho South has quite noar at baud
a brilliant fnture. Restore confidence,
and yon will fiud money in abandonee
flowing into tho South. Mr. Greeley’s
advice to young men will no longer bo
heeded, but they will turn their faces
Southward. Thousands are waiting to go
now.” Well, I snpposo wo can nil join
and say, “come along yon arc welcome if
you are coming to do holiest labor for
the recuperntiou of tho South.”
In the balloting for Speaker five Penn
sylvanians—Errett, Bayne, Killingor,
Kelley and Ward—failed to voto for Mr.
Garfield, the caucus nominee of the lie-
pnblioatis. Tho reasou assigned by these
gentlemen is that Gaifield is a free trader
and a member of tho Cobden Club. Gen
eral Butler voted for Banks iu caucus aud
on the first call failed to vote for Garfield,
bnt afterwards fell into line. There ore
no further developments as to the compo
sition of tho House committees. Mr.
Randall says ho has made no pledges, and
nobody is authorized to speak for him iu
theso mattors. llo is overwhelmed with
applications, nearly every membor desir
ing to pick his plaoe. There aro at least
forty who wished to been the Judicinry
Committee, and ono-half of them aspire
to the chairmanship. Every man has
* ‘claims” which he thiuks insurmounta
ble.

TENTIONS PAID 1IIM — UIS INTENTIONS FOR
THE FUTURE.
By Telegraph to the Herald.]
Washington, October 15.—Ex-Presi-
C'ltlNIIlNf; DEFEAT OF THE
TEKKN.
In Asia Minor, on Monday and Toes*
day, Moukhtar Pasha experienced a
crushing defeat near Kars. The Russians
overwhelmed him with numbers, sur
rounded and captured his right wing and
drove him with his centre and left into
Kars. In his dispatches he admits being
compelled to retreat from bis strategetical
positions, which were regarded os vory
strong. There is now no army in the
field to oppose the maroh of the victori
ous Russians on Erzeroum. The
necessity of raising and equipping
another will be a bard task
for the Porte. Not long since the SnltaD
bestowod the title of “Conqueror” on
Moukhtar, but a “conqueror” can do lit
tle without men, and the Rapsians had a
force of at least three to one. The won
der is excited that the Turkish command
er .should have kept them at bay so long.
Kars is well provisioned, bnt the large in
crease in the garrison will make the con
sumption immense. Its fate, without
the assistance of an active army in the
field, is merely a question of time.
For tho first time the Russians have
gained a decisive viotory, and even now
it has not proved a triumph of general
ship, but simply brute force—hammering
away with an onormons mass of men, and
careless of the lives it cost. The same
tactics must result in the subjugation of
Turkey. Husain cannot withdraw from
tho contost. If so, she would bo shamed
in the eyes of tho civilized world. By
dint of snperior armies the way must be
foroed. If this oan be secured at an ear
ly day, and no othor power be involved,
and peace be declared, the nations will
greatly rejoice. The continuance of
tho war is greatly discouraging
the commercial relations of all, and
neither powor has tbo true sympathy of
any. There is little in the oivilization of
eithor country to admire, and as to free
dom and religions toleration, Turkey is
hotter supplied than Russia. The latter
is ono of the worst despotisms of earth—
an exhibition of the one man rule, while
Turkoy has some kind of a parliament.
Both empires aro nearly insolvent and
becoming more bankrupt every day,
Tho loadors of Europe fight ns Bhy of them
as a miser does of the common tramp,
unloss there is offorod something of value
to hold. Russia’s ambition is to possess
Constantinople. It has been her droam
of years, aud for that and not the false
plea of proteotion to Christians the con
flict was forced. Hhe may not win the
key to the Bonphorous, but nmst compel
such terms of ponce as to gain, a la Ger
many, large slices of territory and indem-
nitios for waging unjustly a war on Tur
key.
Dr. Draper on Darwinism.—The evo
lutionists have acquired a powerful sup
porter in Prof. J. W. Draper, of New
York UnivorRity, who in a lecture, deliv
erod nt Springfield, Mass., on Thursday
Inst, boforo and at tho invitation of an
association of Unitarian ministers, now
in session there, expounded Darwin’i
theory of evolution, and gave his reasons
why it ought to moot with general accep
tance. Dr. Draper doos not regard Dar
win’s theory of evolution as tending to
promoto the doctrine of the materialists.
On tho contrary he doolnred in Bumming
up that tho adoption of an hypothesis so
complete and rounded iu all its parts
would lead to “nobler views of this great
universe of whioh wo form a part; nobler
views of tho manner in which it has been
developed in the past ages to its present
state; nobler views of the laws by whioh
jt is now maintained; nobler expectations
as to its future. Above all, our concep
tions of the unchangeable purpose, of
tho awful majesty of the Supremo Being,
booomo more vivid. Wo realize what is
meant wlion it is said, 'With Him there
is no variableness, nor shadow of turn-
iug.’”
The obolisk known as Cleopatra’s nee
dle, whioh is still loft standing on tho
shores of tho Levant, aud which has been
proseutdfl by the Khedive to the city of
Now York, has boon accepted by that
city. A woalthy citizen has agreed to
close with tho terms of Mr. Dixon, the
ontorpriRing English contractor now con
voying its companion to England, to bring
it on bore for $100,000 and furnish the
means necessary to secure its transporta
tion to our shores. Of course it will be
orected in Central Park, and thus a real
gouuino curiosity of antiquity, more than
twenty oonturies old, will bo added to
that already attractive resort.
Au Old Document.
Tho frioudH aud admirers of Abraham
Lincoln will be surprised at the publica
tion of the following document, whioh we
find in a late number of the Herald :
MU. LINCOLNS VIEWS ON TnE FUGITIVE
6LAVE LAW.
Springfield, III., Juno 20, 1859.
Hon. S. J*. Chase:
My l)aar Sir—Yours of the 13th instant
is received. You say you would be glad
to havo my views. Although I think
Congress has constitutional authority to
enact a fugitive slave law, I have never
elaborated au opinion upon the subject.
My view lin* been, and is, simply this:
Tho United States Constitution says the
fugitive slave “shall be delivered up,”
but it does not expressly say who shall
deliver him up. Whatever the Constitu
tion says “shall bo done” and has omitted
Rayiug who shall do it, the Government
established by that Constitution, ex ri
termini, is vested with the power of
doing, ntid Congress is, by the Constitu
tion, expressly empowered to make all
laws which shall be neoexsary and proper
for carrying iuto execution all powers
veRted by the Constitution iu the Govern
ment of tho Unitod States. This would
be my view on a simple reading of the
Constitution ; and it is greatly strength
ened by the historical fact that the Con
stitution was adopted, in great part, in
order to get a government whioh could
execute its own behests in contradistino
tion to that under the nrtioles of oonfede-
Tlio Georgia MnrsImlNtiip.
We find the subjoined paragraph in the
National Republican, of the 15th inst.:
The question of appointing a now
United states Marshal for the State of
Georgia has beon the snbject of Cabinet
consideration, bnt as yet no selection
from the numerous applicants for the po
sition has been made. The disposition is
to give the appointment to some one of
the applicants from the southern part of
the State. The present Marshal is a
resident of North Georgia, and all his
subordinates are from that aection. Be
sides, Northern Georgia has bad a monop
oly of all the Federal offices since the
war. The President is desirous of equal
izing the appointments, and, in order to
accomplish this, will make all new ap
pointments from Southern Georgia. All
the applicants for the Marsbalship (with
one exception) who are fitted for the po
sition are residents of the northern part
of the State. The exception allnded to iH
backed by the strongest influence of bis
section, besides he has the influence of a
great number of the prominent support
ers of the Administration in other South
ern States and in the North. Besides, he
is in every way qualified for the position,
and will no doubt receive the appoint
ment, whioh will be made early next
week.
The National Republican is Boss Shop-
herd’s paper and not over-friendly to the
President. We leave the pnblic to deter
mine what amount of authority is con
tained in the above announcement and to
make what guesses they please as to the
lucky man.
A now at a seance.
f INVESTIGATOR’S SERIOUS PROPOSALS
INDIGNANTLY REJECTED.
At a spiritualistic scanoe given by Mrs.
Maud E. Lord,at 222 West Thirty-seventh
street, last evening, Mr. Charles F. White,
of^Now.York, who hasj beon working to
prove so-called spiritualistic manifesta
tion a fraud, attended. Twenty chairs
were placed in a circle, and the company
were seated, man and woman alternately.
Then Mr. White examined the room, but
did not discover anything suspicious.
After tho door had been locked, the gas
was turned off. Mrs. Lord sat in the
centre of the circle. The Sun reporter
touched both of her feet with his feet, ns
she said,to make certain she did not move.
She kept patting her hands to prove to
the company that she did not use them to
produce the manifestations. There was
the usual guitar playing, a palm leaf fun
agitated the air, so-called spirit hands
touched the people, and whisperings were
heard. Then strango phosphorescent
lights appeared.
Mr. White proposed thnt Mrs. Lord
allow tho reporter to hold her hand dur
ing tho manifestations. This she refused
to do. Then Mr. White offered to ad
vance tho money to pay Mrs. Lord for a
seance, at which fifteen persons of his
own selection should attend. lie said he
eould produce the same manifestations
that she did, and ho would not invoke the
aid of spirits. MrR. Lord again declined.
Ins'antly there was an uproar. Mrs.
Lord nngrily told Mr. White that ho had
spoiled the seance. Several of Mrs.
Lord’s friends upbraided Mr. White, call
ing him “no gentleman,” etc. lie re
plied that he only meant to make an hon
est investigation. She said that his pro
posed tests wore not fair, and that sha
would not submit to them. Mr. White
and his friends then indignantly withdrew,
saying that the seance was a fraud. Mr.
White told the reporter that Mrs. Lord
did not pat her hands, but that she
slapped Homo part of her body with ono
hand, while her othor hand was free to
play tho guitar and touch tho different
persons sittiug around tho circlo. The
spirit lights wero produced with phospbo
rus boiled iu oil, contained in a bottle,
lie said there wore no manifestations
produced whioh it would not bo possible
for any smart girl to perform under the
same conditions.—N. Y. Sun.
