SLANDERING MR. YILAS. LAWYER WELCH ARRAIGNED FOR MAKING SERIOUS CHARGES. Be Accuses the Postmaster Genera! of Stealing Funds and Papers and Ruining an Insurance Company- Nine Indictments. From the New York Sun. Minneapolis, Oct. 3. —There was a gen ome sensation in the District Court this morning when the well-known 'eccentric lawyer, William Welch, was arraigned for slander and libel on nine indictments. Mr, Welch was for many years a resident of Madison, VVis., the home of Postmaster General Vilas. The two, it is said, were once intimate friends, but for some reason Welch seems now to cherish a deadly enmity against Mr. Vilas. Chiefly for his own amusement, ho has been publishing, at his home, a queer little sheet called the Home Dairy, which has been made the voice by which Mr. Welch has aired his eccentrici ties in general and his animosities against Vilas in particular. It has been printed in Minneapolis for two years and before that in Madison for a number of veal's. Mr. Welch and his family performing the whole labor of writing, typesetting and printing. According to the indictments Welch, in the issue of the paper for Dec. 4, under the heading “At Home,” accused Postmaster General Vilas, when ho was attorney for the Madison Fire Insurance Company, of buy ing up a certain Seth Bontlett, to prevent him from prosecuting a suit against the company, and of then stealing all the origi nal papers in the suit from the office of the county clerk, and afterward, when in Wash ington, refusing to give any information as to the whereabouts of the papers. The second charges Mr. Welch with say ing in his paper of the same date that the late Timothy Brown, together with William iToudflt, William Dudley, Philip Fox, Wil liam F. Vilas and Buel F. Hutchinson, all officers of tne Madison Insurance Company, guilty of embezzling £17.1,000 of the company’s property. The fourth charges the defendant with accusing Mr. Vilas, in company with other officers of the company, of subscribing to spurious security in order to improve the credit of the company, and of concocting a seh me by which the city of Madison was defrauded of 871,000, which Mr. Vilas appropriated to his own benefit. The fifth indictment declares that Mr. Welch has accused Mr. Vilas of destroying and rendering insolvent the same company, and of dividing the surplus assets among the directors who had signed the spurious security fund. The remaining indictments are repetitions of the preceding ones in different forms. Mr. Welch listened attentively to the reading of the first indictment, waived the reading of the remainder, and pleaded “Not guilty.” He said he would like to have the case continued until the next term, as he Would lie coinjielled to subpoena a number of witnesses from an adjoining State. County Attorney Davis objected to this, but consented to have the case set for Oct. 30. Mr. Davis then moved that the defend ant furnish a bill of particulars as to what his defense would be. Judge Young said he had never heard that it was customary to make such an order in cases of this kind, but if Mr. Davis could furnish him with cita tions he would hear the argument for the motion on next Saturday. THE VENICE OF TO-DAY. A Picturesque Marine Procession— The Gondoliers. Venice Correspondence Baltimore Sun. There are 4,000 gondoliers in Venice, and they are by far the most numerous and influential organization of the working classes. For six months of the year the gondoliers have their harvest in the crowds of tourists who visit Venice, and their regular business suffices to maintain them for the rest. Their boats are the hackney coaches, the cabs and the omnibuses of Venice, and each gondola has posted in a conspicuous place the tariff of licensed charges. Justice must be done these gondoliers in acknowledging that they are not less quick than a Baltimore or a AVashingtou hackman in taking ad vantage of the ignorance or indifference of strangers, and will, with as little conscience, stick it on without mercy whenever they get a chance. The gon doliers generally have fair voices, as have most other people here. Italy is properly styled the land of song. Of evenings it is quite the custom for a gondolier to (ill his boat' with a party of male and female friends, with a violin or two in the party, course up and down in front of the hotels, sing snatches of popular operatic or other airs, and then pa s around the hat among the guests. The singing is fully equal to the average chorus singing of opera companies, and somehow it seems to sound better comiug over the water. A PICTURESQUE MOONLIGHT PARADE. Last night strangers who happened to be in Venice were fortunate in witnessing the annual spectacle of a grand serenade and illumination. An English naval squadron, consisting of eight iron-dads and cruisers, anchored off Venice on Tuesday. The Duke and Duchess of Edinburg were on board. The Duchess came ashore and took quarters at one of the hotels, but the Duke remained on the flag-ship at night. Several of the vessels of the fleet took part in the celebra tion, which added much to its eclat. Shortly after nightfall the gondolas began to ren dezvous. There arc a few private gondolas still in Venice, but they are rather plain, and do not differ very much from the public ones. The boatmen wear a livery to distinguish them. Most of the pub lie gondoliers own their own boas. Between 8 and it o'clock, amid the booming of cannon, the glare of electric lights and the bursting ol'rockets, the pro cession began its march. It was led by a large boat, covered in profusion from stem to stern with glass lanterns colored in all hues. The light shining through them pro duced a most beautiful effect. On this boat was a brass and string band and a fine chorus of bassos and tenors. Then there were others with a chorus of male and female voices, the performers accompany ing themselves with guitars, violins and mandolins. The moon, which was almost full, rose in soft brilliancy about !i o’clock. The route of procession was down the grand canal, or the main street, to the anchorage of the inside vessels of the English fleet and return, about five miles: in all. At least a thousand gondolas, with from four to six occupants each, made up the rest of Iho procession. On lany of these at intervals blue and red lights were burned with slow, regular motion, the dark gondo las swept over the blue waters with an unin terrupted succession of music nml song, the burning of lights, the great white electric light flashing at times its rays over the walls of the city and the waves of the Adriatic, the moon meantime shining ovpr all. The gondoliers stand as they row on an elevation above the seats of the passengers. The mo tion of handling the oar is swinging and graceful, bringing at the same time the muscles of the legs, the arms and the chest into full play. Not by any means the least picturesque picture of tho occasion was the sight across the broad expause of water of thoso thousands of muscular, finely developed gondoliers, w-ith their white jackets and bare black bnir, moving their whole bodies in regular motion and in perfect time to tho plashing of the oars. As the fleet neared the British man-of-war the Duke and Duchess of Edin burgh appeared on the dock of one of them in full view, while the bands on bail'd struck up, first the national nil's of Italy and then of Great Britain. Simultaneously the two vessels were wrapped in a wreath of fire and flame from bursting bombs and rockets, illu mining sky and water for miles around. Music from voice and instrument suceecdod for a half hour, when the turn was made, the English ships firing a farewell salute, uud the procession went buck as it come. POVERTY IN THE MIDST OF WEALTH. There is no wealth to speak of in Venire, and the only present industry is the ex portation of hemp and the manufacture of mosaics, in which the city has long excelled. There are a few rich people who call them selves citizens of Venice, but never live here, spending all their time at Rome or at then- country seats. There is but little trace of the descendants of the great nobility, and thore are probably not more than three or four families who claim descent from any one of tho 130 Doges. You can buy or rent their old big houses or palaces, as the people delight in calling them, at very cheap rates. Some of them are now nothing more than the merest tenement-lumses. Mr. George Peabody Russell, nephew of the late George Peabody, is said to be one of the Americans who has a fancy for owning European palaces. Two were pointed out to me here as late pur chases of his, and the price mentioned was 840,000, which would be far from paying for the frescoes on the walls. The paint ing and wood-work in some of these old buildings is positively most exquisite. In what is called the palace of the Doge, but which was undoubtedly occupied only for official and public purposes, and which was where the Senate met, and the Council of Ten passed that judgment upon life and property, from which there was no appeal, there is a splendor and an art in the wall and ceiling ornamentation which could not possibly be reproduced, and the value of which cannot be counted in money. Ido not know of any private residence in the United States, even those of the latter day millionaires, which are constructed on such an extensive scale as these stained and dingy-looking edifices in which the nobles and merchants of Venice lived so long ago. Fancy a private residence with a hall 50 feet wide and 150 feet long, with almost innumerable suites of spacious and lofty apartments on each side, with marble staircases extending to the top wide enough for twenty men to march abreast, marble floors at every story, picture gal leries of immense size, frescoing of the most gorgeous tints on the walls, finely and most artistically carved statues of wood and stone looking down upon you at almost every turn, beautiful gardens with flowers, fountains and waterfalls inclosed within the walls, and as private as any of the apart ments, and one may get some idea of the “has been” m Aten ice. Venice has many fine old churches, chief, of course, among which is St. Mark’s. Napoleon Bonaparte had a fine eye for the beautiful, and when he found in any city into which his victo rious legions marched a rare painting, a piece of statuary', a fine bronze, or any thing choice and recherche, he coolly appropriated it and sent it to Paris. After his downfall many of these things were restored to the places from whence they were taken. At A eniee, as well as all over Europe, you are frequently, when admiring some rare production of the brush or chisel, informed that it was “stolen by Napoleon Bonaparte” in a certain year, and restored in another certain year. Napoleon is re garded in all the countries which he con quered as a mere robber, but in what re spect, except that of phenomenal success, he differed from the other kingly freebooters and brigands of Europe I have never been able to see. THE QUEEN AND MBS. KENT. |S Mrs. Kent One of Queen Victoria’s Illegitimate Cousins? From the New York Sun. A fairly well-informed Briton, speaking of the claim of Mrs. Kent, otherwise the Countess of Lundi, to be a daughter of Queen Victoria, suggests that there may be an explanation of the matter entirely com patible with Mrs. Kent's honesty of inten tion in making the claim, and, at the same time, not reflecting upon Queen Victoria. It is a matter of common knowledge in Great Britain that a family named Kent, in the west of England, are relations of the Queen. They are in medium circumstances, without fortune, and dependent upon their own exertions for support. The government sees that they do not suffer, and the head of the family was recently, and perhaps is yet, a factory inspector. His office has brought him largely in contact with the manufacturing class, and he is favorably spoken of. The family are simply illegitimate de scendants of George 111. The blood in their veins is as royal as that of Queen Victoria, but they come under the bar sinister. A couple of centuries ago they would have been ennobled and endowed with estates at the expense of the public. But Englishmen of this age and generation will not stand that sort of thing, and all that royal blood has secured to this family is the privilege of earning a pretty easy living. The Kents in question came prominently before the English public, and it may be said, the civilized world, about 28 years ago, in connection with what is known as “the Kent road tragedy.” Florence Kent was guilty of the cruel murder of a child— not her own, but of the same family—whose body she concealed in an outhouse. All England was full of the tragedy at the time of its occurrence, and the fact that Florence Kent, the murderess, was a cousin of Queen Victoria was as much an admitted incident of the story as the murder itself. The newspapers mentioned it just as they mention any other known and undeniable fact. The relationship to royalty undoubtedly had something to do with saving the murderess from the extreme penalty of the law. Had she been executed, as she deserved, the spectacle would have been witnessed of a descendant of George 111. meeting the disgraceful tate to which the Georges themselves had consigned so many brave and noble Britons, whose only crime was following the Pretender, whom they believed to be their rightful king. The Mrs. Kent whose extraordinary statement was published in the Sun may perhaps belong to this same Kent family. If so it would be easy to understand why John Brown, as agent of Queen Victoria, might have assisted her, and also why a clergyman of the Established Church might have been an almoner of the royal bounty. It wont l also be easy to understand why the queen would not be willing to accord any formal recognition to Mrs. Kent. Again, if she is one of the Kents alluded to, it is easy to see that her idea of her connec tion with royalty may have become distort ed into its present form. Five Generations of Six Fingered Persons. From the New York Tribune. One of the most remarkable cases in medical annals, as summarized in a French journal, has reference to a six-fingered family, covering five generations and in cluding twenty-seven individuals. The first instance in this line was that of a man, born in 1752, who had six toes on one foot; in the second generation a son with six toes on one foot and a daughter normal: third genera tion, this daughter had five children, among whom were a son and daughter each having six fingers on each hand; of the fourth generation the daughter last mentioned had eight children, incuding one son and two daughters each having six fingers on each hand and six toes on each foot; of the fifth generation, a daughter had three children, including a son doubly deformed like his mother, and a son with" six fingers on each hand, the feet being normal. Moreover, one of the two daughters of the fourth genera tion—with only the hands affected—had i eight children, several of whom wore j normally developed, but the rest were 1 deformed as follows: One daughter had an osseous thickening of the digital extremity and on the outer border of the fifth meta carjia]: one son had six lingers on each hand and six toes on each foot; and another son had six fingers on each hand.
