Exlitor Sar: The history of the Gulbord case, which is now the cause of so much ex- citement in Canada, may not be uninterest- ing to your readers. The case is as fol lows: There was established some years ago, in the city of Montreal, a literary and social ciab named the Jnsfi‘ut Ornaulien. This ¢ niza- tion was composed of the elite of the Frencit Canadian youth, and received the approba- tion of the good citizens and the clergy. Some time after its organtzation the con- Seleners of several of the members were alarm dat the “liberal” and infidel tenden- cies wh ch certain of their colleagues, they saul, were imparting to the character of the Institute. It must be remembered, in this connection, that the French Canadians are uitramonutanes, that is to say, “consisteat Catholics.” French Canada is France wita- ont tue year "3 accented, as has been traly said py one of our own writers. The infidel tendencics engrafted on the association be- came especially marked in the character of the books placed in the library, and on ore cecasion &@ Motion was made to appoint a committee to examine and ‘report as to whether the library contained works against faith and morals. This was not even re- spectfully considered, and the socety by a large majority vote rejected the motion, and thus supported the element of free-thinkers in the discussion. The minority, therefore, withdrew. This became the exciting topic of the hour; ibe Catholies approved the con- dnetof the Lnority, the handful of Cana- dian infidels and the ultra Protestants up- held the views of the majocity. The Catholic bishop of Montreal had a cat- alogue cf the institute examined, and on the finding of the committee, be condemned the association as inimical to the faith and more}; of the youth of his flock, and ordered all Catholics Who respected the teaching 0% the Chureh, and desired to tive and die in its to sever Weir connection with the ned institute. Manv obeyed the voice of their pastor, others would not bear; among the latter bumber was an individual named Gulbond.

After tne death of Gnibord’s widow, the Instiiut Conadien, which had inereased tn im- ce as infidel institution, determined on a contliet between’ the Church and the stat Lreopened the case, insist- ing upon the inbumatton of Guibord in the Catholic cemetery. The cure again refused; he was brought before all the triba- nals of Canada, and more recently the Privy Connell of England decid- et in favor of the institute, and orered the cure, Rousselot, to give Guibord Chris- ecord Ing to the rites and usages church. The cure refuses, as I understand it, Ist, because the giving of Christian burial isa’ religious fanetion, and Ot be ordered by the state; 24, to do .o woul! violate the laws of his diocese and the dictates of his own conscience; 3d, the treaty between France and England, by which the conquest of Canada was confirmed, guaran- tees the liberty of the Catholic church; 4th, the decrees of the privy council are tyran- nieal and oppressive, and therefore null and id. It will be observed. by the telegrams just published, that the Protestants and Oraige- men have espoused the eause of the free thinkers in the confilet.

Forney’s Press of to-day has the following:—On Saturday afternoon a gentleman named Cummings, residing In this city, called at the central Station with a batch of letters, which his mother received some time last winter, rela- tive tothe lost boy, Charlie Ross. The let- ters were from a ‘lady friend residing in Arkansas, who is very wealthy, and who is & member of one of the first families in the State. It seems that Mrs. Cummings had been corresponding with ber friend, and one letter she received made mention of the pop- lar topic, the Ross case. The friend stated that a strange man aud woman were living near her residence, and had with them a boy which did not appear their own. He was polished in his manners, and about four years oid, light-complexioned, and seemed to re- gard the persons professing to be his parents with more fear than regard. The friend requested Mrs. Cummings to forwand a pic- ture of Charley Ross. She complied with the request, and @ subsequent epistle informed Mrs. Cummings that the photograph had been banded to the child and he was ques- tioned as to who it was. Why, that’s me!” he exclained. The lad, , “What fs your name?” to which he replied. “Why, Charley.” Nothing further could ve obtained from this, excepting that he said the man and woman he was with told him qbat they were his mamma a‘ ut, he added, “T used to have anoti a and The jady asked where th know,” answered the bo; nicer than this; I wish they would take me home.’ The letters were handed Mrs. Cum- mings by bis mother, and he did not think them of ‘sufficient importance to hand to the police until he had read the proceedings of the Westervelt trial, After reading the let- ters, Capt. Curry told Mr. Cummings to call at the detective office this morning and bring him the rest of the letters, and that Capt. Heins would then consult with him. ——_o—____ THE OLD WORLD'S NEWS.

PHILADELPIIIA, Sept. 5.—The fifth letter of Mr. Weish’s series is in type, and will ap- ES to-morrow. It gives a history of tue Red Cloud reservation, the seene of the frauds revealed by Prof. Marsh. The first agent was not nominated by the church, but by Gen. Logan for eminent litieal services, and then began the fraudulent practices. The letter shows how agents are sent away fi their reservation and fraudulent vonc! signed by employ «l, and no recla~ mation made w re given notica of frauds. A letter from the Interior depart- ment to the first chureh agent for Red Clond shows that D. J. McCann, the notorious | freight contractor, was sent at the request of a Nebraska Senator and Representatives. Mr. Welsh says he is fled that the church exerted due diligence, but no agent in ex- pesed situation, unsupported by mission- artes or teachers, can long resist the wiles of the Indian ring, backed, as it is, by the Inte- rior departinent. ee THE DIRECT CABLE.

Mr. Cook objected, raising the points re- peatedly made, that Brown and not Ialleck Was on trial. and that no connection had been éstablished between the parties. Mr. Wiison argued the right of the counsel to the evidence, and said that it was only a | Step in laying the foundation of a larceny, | by showing that Benjamin B. Halleck took the money. Afier that they proposed tocon- nect Brown with it by being accessory after the fact. Mr. Cook said that the prosecution had virtually abandoned the charge under which his client was arraigned, and were fishing about trying to get together a case on which they might convict Brown. The prosecution did not know if Brown was arratgnued on the cbarge of being an accessory after the fact, but that he would plead guilty. They took too much for granted. He was how arraigned for Jarceny, abd it was on that charge that he was being defended. If the prosecution wished to amend their information Major Riebards, the complainant, was of easy ac- cess, and they could do so, but he must ob- ject to this form of procedure on the part counsel for the prosecution. : This potnt was discussed by Judge Fisher and Mr. Cook, and, without reaching a dee | sion, the court adjourned until to-morrow at 2o'clock.
