WasmNaToN, Aug. 5.—Tho Cabinet meoting, which was held to-day, was ontiroly of an iufor- mal charactor, as only routino business was con- sidored. 'Tho caso of the Virginius was not dis- cussed, although it may proporly be said to have como bofors the Government, innsmuch as al tho correspondenco has boon recoived at the State Dopartmont. Tho suggestion thot tho .diplomstic offices of the Gov- ornmont bo used to . obtain loni- ent trontmont of tho Manitoba kidnappers was somewhat debated, and the assurances of the Acting Bocretary of Stato to Senator Ram- sey were approved. Tho Govornment ofiicials gonerally rogard tho affair much in tho light of a Fenian raid, and aro not inclinod to make an important diplomatic mattor of it. All the membors of the Cabinot wore presont, oxcoptye the Socretary of the Treasury and Navy. Tho former was roprosouted by Assistant Bocrotary Sawyer, whilo the latter was not repro- -sented. The Cabinet to-night have been invited to dino by Gov. Cooke.

The consus doos not give those undor 10 who cannot write or cannot road, but wo may make an cstimato on the basis that the same percentage holda good as in the case of thoss over 10 yoars, and woe find that out of the 38,658,371 of tho population of the United Statesof all agos, 19,185,799, or .47 per cont of tho total popula- tion must bo excluded from any estimato which would ascertain the number who are able through roading and writing to oxchange infor- mation with othors for the guidance of their conduct.” THE ** DACE-PAY " STEAL, Gon.

It did not satisfy him, that ho hnd left his wife, Ho oxpected to bo sent* for. Ho thought his obsonco would ! make - hor :long for his presonco. It not. Bhe re- Joiced that ho had gone, for now her heart could pulsate with that of Cottrell's, and nothing make thom flutter with fear of discovery, Iof- fort rosolved to destroy their happiness.
