The late Rev. Geo. Morrison, af ter making a number of bequests in his will, declares: "The lalance I desire to be left to tho Bishop of Western Mary land, in trust, to be used for tho erection of a mission church in the city of Balti more." Bislidp Whitingliam r.ued the executor of Morrison to recover the bo- quest. and the court say there cannot be a trustee without cestui que trust, and if it cannot he ascertained who the cc.tui que trust is.it is the same as if there were none and the bequest void for uncertainty.

Tlie Southern Steamship Company had their regular force of twelve men at work yesterday, and also succeeded in getting six additional men this evening at the re duced rate. Of these six, three were beaten last night after they quit work. As a natural consequence, the company is without extra stevedores this morning, men willing to work being afraid to work.

The Dlniio on the Virginias Blnndor Havana, December 23.—The Diario La Marina to-day claims that as tlie United States Attorney General has de cided that tho Virginius illegally carried tho American flag at tho time of her cap ture, Spain iniust demand her restoration and that of her surviving prisoners. It infers from tlio decision that the V irgin- ius was it pirato, and tlio United States Government, besides a restoration, must give Spain satisfaction adequate to the offence of requiring her surrender. The Diario demands tho same vessel which receivod the Virginius at Bohai Honda to return her tlie re, and the Juniata to bring the prisoners back to Santiago, be cause tho Virginius was tho legal prize of the Tornado, and tho prisoners can, and should bo tried only by Spanish tri bunals. Spain is advised to be clement with them, and not to employ the full force of law. Tho Diario oonclude3 with tho hope that General Sickles will not withdraw Bis resignation. The Vos do Cuba declares Spain now lias tbo right to demand satisfaction from the United States, and the resigna tion of General Sickles is imperative in view of the awkward and ridiculous posi tion in which ho is placed. In order to enforce her demands Spain requires a •more energetic minister at Washington than Admiral Polo. _ .... The Diario, in another article, bitterly complains of tbo home Govenimcnt. It says: ‘-No Spanish nation exists to-day. Tho nation is represented only by ego tistical parties. Tlioro is no war cry. Therefore our traditional enemies put their feet on our necks. Had Spainbeen united the Washington protocol would never havo been ratified. The nation would never have permitted tho shadow of such an outrage.” Military Movements.

If anybody lias ever used the thorough and scientific course of treatment recom mended by the proprietor of Dr. Sage’s Catarrh Remedy tor the enro of Catarrh and has not been perfectly cured, tho proprietor, Dr. It. V. Pierce, would like to hear from that person.and by address ing him at the 'World’s -Dispensary, Buf falo, N. Y., such person, if there bo ono, will hear of something to hi; or her ad vantage, as the Doctor is in carnesf when he offers $500 reward for a case of Ca tarrh whieli he can not cure, and i3 per fectly able to pay it if he fails in a single case, as any one may ascertain upon en quiry. Tho thorough course of treat ment referred to and recommended by Dr. Pierce consists in tho U3e of Dr. Sago’s Catarrh Remedy with Dr. Pierce’s Nasal Douche which is tho only means by which tho fluid can be carried high up and applied to all parts of the nasal pas sages and the chambers connected there with in which ulcers exist and from which the discharge proceeds. In addition to this thorough application of tho Remedy, which should always bo used warm, Dr. Pierce’s Golden Medical Discovery Bhould bo taken earnestly as constitutional treat ment, without which few cases can be cured, a3 the disease is always constitu tional and must bo treated accordingly. This treatment has no unpleasant features about it, and has the advantage of never driving the disease to tho lungs as there is danger of doing by the uso of strong, irritating snuffs or poisonous solutions. I-LAIN FACTS. Fuankfokt, Mich., Sept-13,1873, A year ago I had a bad cough from the Catarrh wluch had got in my throat. I tried a good many things but got noth ing to do me any good until I used your Golden Medical Discovery and Dr. Sage’s Catarrh Remedy. They cured me in three months for which I am very thank ful.
