Arrmt fa l*rotcir l 'Or • lerlt at Madrid. Loudon. April 4.—lt te reported from Madrid that Professor rinrr, of the Univorsity of Madrid, was arrest ed ixicauito he petitioned tin* Kiriff against tho recent reactionary educa tional decrees, The Professor ui thoutfh ill, was sent to Cadiz, for transportation to Fernand. It is related in an old legend that Bt. Peter come upon the cartli a thou sand yoorH after ho had died. All things seemed now and unfamiliar to him until he reached Spain; there tho interval of a thousand years had ef fected no change. Whatever may be the object of tho Catholics In keep- j ing tho countries under their rule steeped in ignorance, the effect has been in all times to foment supersti tious fanaticism and barbarous repri sals in time of war. We read, the other day, of tho cruel massacre per petrated by Gen. Haballa, n Oarllst leader, 111*011 dofoncoless prisoners. We know that the mightiest chief of the Carlist cause, Gon. Cabrera, rais ed tho black flag in the last Oarllst war, and perpetrated similar atroci ties. In 1562 the history of Florida tells us that Monendez, “a brave, bigoted and remorseless, soldier, was dispatched to Florida, by the bigoted Philip 11, to expel theFreneUHugue nots, who had fled from iiersecution and taken refuge there. Tho useless slaughter of Bibaultand Ills colony, “on the bloody rivor of tho Mutau zas,” an act of monstrous atrocity, committed exclusively In the interest of the Catholic religion, Bpain and France being, at the time, nt jieace, He spared only the lifers, drummers, and trumpeters, and four others, who said they were Catholics. In the lan guage of the chronicler, “2Wo* to* demas fueron degalltulos, (All the rest were slaughtered.) The same duplicity marked the conduct of Menendcz, in 1562, and that of Saballa, in 1875, and the means employed to induce their vic tims to surrender without u struggle, was the same base treachery which characterized “Capt. .Jack," the Mo doc Chief, when he murdered Gen. Canby. In Capt. Jack's case it was but the natural instinct of a savage nature, smarting under cruel wrongs and a relentless system of robbery on the jiort of the United States Govern ment and its agents. In the case of Spain it is a disgrace upon tills cen tury, as tho act of Menendcz, was a stigma upon the lth century. The concluding evidence of the in tolerance which characterizes Catho lic Spain, from King to peasant, is the recent act of King Alphonso, sen tencing Professor Finer, of the Uni versity of Madrid, to transportation because lie petitioned against the re actionary educational deeßees. Con trast this with the following: “A mini petitioned for the more portion of a slave (the slave had lost a llmbduring tho war of 1812,) and his petition was reeelvod, read, reported on, debuted, and Anally decided, in his favor by the united wisdom or Congress." The right of petition is only second to the right tluit one lias of demand ing that all petitions showing griev ances shall beheurd. Tho final proof of tho unvarying tendency of Catholicism to cause fa natical persecution, is found in the recent massacre in Mexico. A prot estant church was entered by infuri ated Catholic Indians, and during di vine service, the congregation was in humanly butchered. No more impolitic act than the ban ishment of Honor Finer could have been committed by young King Al phonso. • ♦ • The New Orleans Bulletin is agitat ing the subject of building a railroad to Toxas as a means of reviving the prostrate commerce of that city. Naturo and the Mississippi river are for New Orleans, against the govern ment of the United States, and the groat commercial power of Now York and the East. Dad government, sys tematically fostered by all the influ ences with which great monied cor porations can bring to bear upon Congress, we fear, will keep New Or leans down for a long time to come.

The imrtieulars of a very singulur case or poisoning by hemlock were developed in Brooklyn yesterday, the victim being professor F. W. Walker, a well known scientist, who was a victim to his own devotion to an in vestigation of the methods of treat ing nervous diseases. Professor F. W. Walker was proprietor o l the Electric Baths, at No. 30<8tute street, 1 and hod for a long time suffered from | spasmodlo contortions of the mus- I cles of the face, and had been treated I by Dr. Brown-Sequard, of New York, I who is now In Europe. Tho stryeh ! nine treatment was first applied, but i without success. Professor Walker j then placed himself under tho treat i nient of Professors Agnew and Web ster, und they adopted the method of Professor Johu Harley, of St. Thom as’ Hospital, in London, which is the use of the conlum, or the fluid ex traet of hemlock. On Saturday he visited Dr. Agncw’s office, in New York, where the drug was used, but witli no satisfactory result. As I ro fessor Walker was leaving the office the physician instructed him to pro cure some of Professor Squibb s fluid ! extract of hemlock and take fifty i drops at a dose. The Doctor described j to his patient what symptoms would : apjiear on ills taking tho dose Pro fessor Walker them visited Dr. i Squibb’s manufactory in Doughty I street, Brooklyn, and procured an j ounce viul of conlum. Returning to I his homo lie began taking the medi ! cine, but the third dose resulted lrl his death. Ho took the first dose on Saturday afternoon, and immediately afterward instructed his wife to sit by his side with writing moteriulsuiid note his symptoms as lie detected them. He then dictated the follow ing, and continued his description till he died : a dyino man’s memoranda. “At ten minutes past four r. m. fifty minims Squibb’s extract of (ioni um. Twenty minutes to live r. m., effect very decided—dizziness and re laxations of the muscles and limbs; fifty minims more then taken, and : immediately difficulty of walking and | want of power to control movements; forced to lie down, but no mitigation of spasm; limbs weak, unable to hold up the head, speech thickening some, pain and Ueavlngs in top and back of the head, pulse fifty-six. Fifteen minutes past live r. m. took fifty drops; some nausea, some tremor at base of clavicle and in muscles across the chest; no diminution of spasms übout the eyes, more of photophobia (dislike of light). Twenty-five min utes past five p. m., drowsiness, in clined to sleep. Twenty minutes to six p. m., eyes difficult to open and speech difficult; difficulty in the throat, prostration nearly complete; diplopia (doublo sightedness) vastly increased. Ton minutes past six p. : m., uausea, twitching* on right side, I unable to articulate, eyes closed, ful ness almost to suffocation in the throat, pulse about sixty, in fact six water! water! water!” ms TRAGIC DEATH. These were the Professor’s last words. His wife, seeing that he was dying, left the room to get some cof fee, and when she returned he was dead. Dr. Griffin was summoned, but was too late to render any assist ance. Professor Walker died of pa ralysis of the spinal marrow. Previous to ids death he stated that before he left Dr. Agnew’s office the Doctor told him that ho might ex pect all those symptoms. Coronor Simms says that tlie third dose was tho cause of tho fatality. Tho Pro fessor. while taking the drug, was very deliberate, und said to his wife, “Take down just as I dictate.” He told his wife not to bo alarmed at any symptom, as Doctor Agnew had told ; him just ltow the symptoms would follow each other, and just how ho 1 would pass out from under the drug’s influence. The object of all was to relax all the muscles so that tho twitching of tho facial muscles would cease, and when t his w as done, a con tinuation of the hemlock in smaller doses, it was hoped. would relieve him entirely. A tea made of hemlock had killed Socrates, and throe grains of the ex tract, as home-made nowadays, ought, the doctors say, to move al most any poison. THE DEATH OF Jin. TOYNBEE. (Extract* from my Journal.] May s, 1866 New York City. To day, according to the advice uf Dr. Van Huron, 1 called on Dr. Agnew, 394 Fifth Avenue. He advised me to travel as much as possible abroad. Handing me two cards, introducing ! mo to two very eminent men- Mr. 1 Toynbee, F. R. H., London, and Dr. Anton Von Troltsoh, Wurzburg, Ba varia. He remarked: “I would ad vise you not to place yourself under treatment if they propose a long course, but get their opinions, in icritinff, after two interviews, so that they may be enabled to form a delib erate opinion of your ease.” June sth, 1866—London. Called on Mr. Toynbee, 18 Saville Row. His opinion is that there are no hopes of a permanent cure of deafness, though its progress may be | retarded and the hearing benefltted. ! June 8. —Second visit to Air. Toyn bee. I noticed on the walls of his office many notices and invitations j to scientific associations, to “Joseph ; Toynbee, F. K. 8.” I procured his written opinion in tho following terse style: "Mr. F. ; suffers from debility of the nervous 1 apparatus of each ear. The treat ment, most likely to be of benefit con | slsts in using a mild stimulant over the ears, throat and neck, and in ■ strengthening tlio nervous system us ! much as iKJssible. is Saville Row, Burlington Gardens, W. Joseph Toynbee, F. It. 8." ! July 7 London. According to ap j pointment, I went to see Mr. Toynbee this morning, having left Paris yes terday in order to put myself under iiis treatment. Air. Toynbee informs me that the indications are favorable. I am to call again on Monday, when he will alter his prescription and give mo another examination. 1 have faithfully earrieed out his instruc tions since my last interview with him (June 8.) July 9.-This morning we were startled on reaching Mr. Toynbee’s office to learn that he had died on Saturday afternoon from the effects of extract of oonium, with which he was making experiments upon the ear. The Doctor had made an ap pointment with ine for this morning, when he intended to change my pre scription. It is supposed that he was making experiments to bear ui>on my ease of deafness. Shortly after I left him he sent his servant to the apoth ecary's fur seme medicine. Taking the vial from the servant, he dis missed him, with instructions not to Interrupt him for a stated time. At the expiration of tilts time the ser vant knocked, and Mr. Toynbee or dered him not to interrupt him for an hour. At the end of one hour lie knocked nt the door and received no response. Upon entering the room he found Air. Toynbee dead. I only write the above to discourage exiiensive tours in order to cure denf l ness. Medicine, thus far, is an em pirical science so far as this infirmity '• Is concerned. Each visit, lasting gen erally about five minutes, costs a guinea, or five dollars in gold. Dr. Agnew stands at the head of his profession upon this subject, I was 1 told, in New York. Mr. Toynbee was the highest au thority on the continent of Europe, or in Greut Britain. Yet, he met death at ids own hands in the pursuit of his favorite science; just as Prof, j Walker did, on the 4th day of this month in Brooklyn. Query: If Mr. Toynbee had not killed himself, would lie not have killed me ? Condeiued from the New York WorlS France and Her Wine I rep. Afr. Flagg observes in his excellent little book on the vineyards of Eu rope, that “tho skiil of Frenchmen lias made the exports of their cellars the most portable, merchantable, und ! generally consumed of all the wines |of commerce." The highest grades of Bordeaux and of Burgundy still I hold the supreme place. Of the 63,- 000,000 hectolitres produced last year in France, France consumed no less than 50,000,000. Of the remaining 13,- 000,000 Switzerland and Germany con sumed the most, taking precedence not only of the United States but of Russia and Great Britain us well. The two million six hundred thou sand inhabitants of little Switzerland bought 591,453 hectolitres of French wines, being at the rate of about five good English gallons a head for every man, woman, and child in the twenty two cantons (anil yet the Swiss wine crop is, we believe, the most impor tant and valuable crop raised in Switz erland. -Editor Times). It has been estimated by competent financiers, ttiat since 1872 Germany lias sent back into France in payment of French productions nearly three-fourths of the sum paid out by France by Ger many under the conditions of Bis marck’s peace. Tiiis sum will doubt less yield a rich return in the increas ed vigor and vitality of the Teutonic race. England, Algeria and La Plata, the latter no doubt in virtue lif her t/ifid, prosperous, are I inereasiny It/dian imputation (italics ours Ed.) come next, and the United States is sixth on the list. One-half of the whole English export of French wines con sists in wines of a high grade. Our Legislators, however, have im posed an additional tax upon the higher grades. Every man who votes ! good wine out of his country ought to die of delirium tremens himself. Tho above editorial is very sugges tive to the political economist. We wish some competent Southerner would develop the subject thorough ly, and show that 11s good wine can be raised hero as in France. Superior wine would command a high price. There is a company in Thoraasville, Gu., who manufacture a wine fully equal to the vin ordinaire so general ly used in France. The trouble is our people who nrc engaged in this business do not care to devote their whole time to wine and fruit culture, and until they do they will not suc ceed in it. We have not space to i write more on this subject now • ♦ * Democratic Victories. - -The news from East und West is very encour aging. Connecticut tins, from all ac counts, done nobly, and the local elections in the West are equally en ! eouraging. Senator Eaton, the 1 States-Rights Democrat, lias been | endorsed at home und Air.

New’s chief qualifica tions for United States Treasurer is I the fact that his signature more close ly resembles a demoralized eel than i even Spinner’s. The Growth of Taxes. -The great and growing cost of Government is becoming a question of grave impor tance to tin people of the United States. At a time when, with the natural expansion of population, and consequently of local business and wants, our municipal, county and State expenses are steadily increas ing, it becomes 11s to watch the in roads of extravagance in the National Government, which threatens, when combined with local taxation, to transform the United States from one | of the cheapest governments to live : under to one of the dearest.

The Wash ington correspondent of the Chicago Times writes that a few evenings since a prominent Congressman ac companied by the eminent physician Dr lirown-Sequard called upon Grant., | and before they entered his presence the Congressman said to his conqwn j ion : “Asa favor, make a quiet, opti cal diagnosis of the President and tell me what you think when we come out.” The interview was soon concluded, and the visitors were presently out. "Well,” said the Congressman, turning to the physi cian, “what do you sav ?" "I say,” answered Dr. Brown-Sequard, "that man must change his wav of living or die within six months.” ‘ Dogs vs. .Sheep.
