Me- Cay, of Georgia, who seeks to gain Ins liberty from the Pennsylvania hospital lor the insane, of West Philadelphia, through the medium of a writ, of habeas curpus, was considered by Judges McKernan declared to be a Spanish love song- After auothcr monologue in an unknown language, Mrs. Oh! sang a tenor solo and alternately car ried on a baaso and a basso and a soprano song-dialogue, doing all with apparent case. Then she vested a few minutes, and taking a pencil and paper in her hands, rolled her eyes skyward again. In an incredibly short space ol time she had filled a fools cap page with curious looking characters that neither she nor anybody else in the room could read. It looked like a jumbled and Butler in private this morning. l jj£tureof pllono b Chine9c LI and Arabic,yet certain letters and r ""’ sign characters were very distinct. Mrs. Onl said that the “spell,” as she called it, though calling for —one number of physicians from the other ; hospital, was present. The pro- ii la : ceedings in chambers were strictly private. At 11 o'clock the case coniiderable pby , ical exertion was called up in open court, when | 0 ,.„ it w», decided that Judge McKay should be given in charge of the United States marshal until this evening, when he returned to the hospital. This action was taken to enable him to consult with coun sel. The case will be called to morrow. L iter in the day Judge McKay withdrew bis petition, thus ending the proceedings begun in the Unit ed Slates court. It was Haid that counsel had been employed, and that perhaps the state courts would be applied to.

Orr and Howell Cobh long survived this office. Henry Clay seemed to refresh her. She lived at l’lainfield with her mo her fwbo was in the room at the time) and her husband, who was in the em ploy ol Pierre Lorillard. She be gar. to have spelUaticut three years ago, and had gradually got so that she could command them at will. Sue had written in Hebrew, and on one occasion she put down a lot of telegraphic characters which the village operator read at a glance, and which proved to be some long desired information about a miss ing will. Though sue had never read Shakespeare's “Julius Osar," she once accurately recited nearly the whole of it to her mother. Both she and her husband were sensitive about the matter, and would only exhibit the strange powers to a few acquaintances. A Portuguese lady, who was among them, would not believe, so Mrs. Ohl said, that she bad not required the Portu gese accent in Portugal. She re ceived like encomiums from gentle men familiar with the languages for her French, Italian, Spani Hebrew, Greek and Arabic ac?e but the truth is, that old Simon, the father of Don, was at the bot tom ol the mailer, using bis influ ence for Butler. When the contest became promi nent old Simon bun ied to Wash ington and interviewed his son in this matter; “Don, I want you to see that justice is done Senator Butler. Thirty years ago bis un cle, Jedge Butler, then a United States Senator from South Caroli na, was one of the most influential men in his partly and was Chair man of the Committee on Contest ed Seats. My right to a seal was contested, and, though the Senate was strongly Democratic. Judge Butler stood up against his party associates and secured me a just decision, and I got the seat That was 30 years ago, but I don’t want a Cameron to permit an injustice to be done to Senator Butler’s nephew, whose seat is now contest ed. If Butler is not fairly elected a Senator of course I ask nothing for him; but it be is entitled to the place do not let any party feeling keep you from helping give it to to him.” Don voted amt worked for But ler; and although the Senate was Republican he was given the seat and the second generation of Sen ators arc as warm friends as were the father and uncle. When Cam eron’s health was very bad Butler paired with him and asserted his determination to do so and contin ue the pair as long as Cameron de sired, even though the Senate was a tie, and Butler, by taking advan tage of his friend’s illness, could have thrown the Senate into the hands of his own party. This story was told in Harris burg, but tbe partisans who tried to use it to the prejudice of Don Cameron sign illy failed. An English gentleman being at a brilliant assembly of the elite of Vienna recently, was much annoy ed at tbe conduct ot a distinguish ed lady of that city, who amused herself and a small circle of friends by saying smart, but generally un- courlcous, things to bim and oth ers. “By tbe way,” added she, “bow is it that youi countrywomen speak French so very imperfectly ? We Austrians use it with the same freedom as il it were our own na tive tongue.” “Madame,” reterted he, but with the blandest manner possible, “I know not, unless it is ilia', tbe French army have not been twice to our capital to teach it, as they have at yours.” Mrs. Ohl said, in response to a question, that it made no difference to her whether she sang soprano, baritone or tenor. The only pecu liar sensations connected with the whole affair were around her throat and chest. Her mind was clear all tbe time, she said, and she saw all the people about her, but her at- William H. Brown, ranger keep er at Creedmoor, last year had a cow that pastured on the range for five and a half months. She was then sold and fed for two months, and when killed was found to have in the first stomach at least a pint of what is known as “bullet spray,” thin pieces of lead which fly in ail directions when the bullet strikes tbe iron target. Some were as large as a 10-cent piece, some ex- *i- tremcly small and others larger, n As they fall they lodge in the (tall 'till live. Bishop H. X.
