after a most persistent scolding he actually compelled the French to pack up their bag and baggage and retire. The fact of the matter is that Seward’s tactles of persistent scolding achieved more for Mexico than people generally think, The honors,’ therefore, ten- dered to the ex-Secretary on his visit to that country are hisdue. A right royal reception will welcome him to the Mexican capital. Sumptuous banquets and brilliant soirées will make his heart glad during his stay, and thus he will reap a reward for his steadfast adhe- rence to Mexico when she most needed friends, On his return home we hope Mr. Seward will give us an account of his* late travels, and tell what he saw and what he heard and what is the condition of the Mexican republic of the present day. He gave an interesting picture of Alaska, but that prac- tical old soldier General Thomas stripped it of all its roseate coloring by a subsequent pic- ture. Now Mr. Seward has a fleld worthy of his prolific pen, and it is to be hoped he will take advantage of the occasion, The Last Ferry Collision. Collisions on our ferries are not uncommon occurrences, but, as far as we remember, very few of them have been intelligently accounted for, and in no cases have the ferry companies been held to any accountability. The last disaster of this kind, however—that which occurred night before last on the North river— appears to be susceptible of explanation in this wise :—The pilots of the heavily built boats of the Erie Railroad, or Pavonia ferry, are said to have entertained a feeling of rivalry towards the pilots of the lighter boats of the Hoboken ferry, which run nearly in the same track. This feeling is reported to extend even to the higher officials of the respective lines. If this be true it is a scandalous state of affairs, We suppose that an investigation into this matter will be made with the usual result, which means nothing; but as no one was killed, as far as known, although many were badly maimed on board the Hoboken boat, we cannot expect a sage verdict from an intelligent coro- ner’s jury. It is clear, nevertheless, that something ought to be done to protect the lives of the forty or fifty thousand people who daily cross the ferries to Jersey and Brooklyn. Inpiorina THE INpIANS.—It is a queer sign of the westward march of civilization that the case of the Indians has been brought before a Grand Jury. Thus the noble savage drops down from his romantic elevation and takes his place in the criminal scale side by side with commonplace malefactors. He is no longer a creature apart—no longer the exclusive pro- perty of Uncle Sam and his Indian agents and cavalry colonels; but he is recognized as within the sphere of the ordinary machinery with which society protects itself against dis- order, This is a great deal. Although the Montana authorities may find it difficult to catch the Blackfeet Indians whom they have indicted, although for the practical purpose of the one case in hand their indictment is a bull against a comet, yet there is a peculiar signifi- cance in what they have done, as it indicates that organized society is at the Indian’s door, for this, in turn, indicates that the Indian must leave. Norvu Carotiwa--Ku Ktvx anp Niacers.— The Governor of North Carolina is evidently determined to be rid of one or the other of the classes that make government troublesome in his State, and his act of arraying the niggers against the Ku Klux is a fine piece of policy. There is one point in favor of the efficiency of his dusky soldiery—the enemy is invisible. Sambo is good on a hunt. Tue Corron Crop.—With careful picking and saving it is likely that the Southern cotton crop this year will reach the handsome figure of three millions of bales. This, at the mode- rate average of twenty-five cents a pound, is equal to three hundred millions of dollars—a splendid exemplification of practical Southern reconstruction on a cash basis. A Reeviar ReseruioN—The democratic and mixed mass meeting in Jackson square the other night in favor of Ignatius Flynn for Senator against Michael Norton, the Tammany man. There is evidently a chance here for Ignatius to get up in the world, either in hold- ing on or by hauling off. MOVEMENTS OF PERE HYACINTSE. He Visits the American Institute Fair—{tis Opinion of American Industry—Critical Ex- amination of the Works on Exhibition. The monk left his cloister at the Fifth Avenue Hotel yeaterday afternoon to mingle for a brief hour with the worldly world. Four o'clock found him at the Rink, Third avenue and Sixty-third street. An announcement, freely circulated, had promised his Presence, ag it had also that of General Jonn A Logan, who was expected to deliver an address on the question of American industrial interests. The Mlustrious Iilinois war horse was engaged in a poli- tical charge, and was consequently absent. Pere Hyacinthe almost immediately found his way to the noisy machine shops in the rear of the building, accompanied by his fair and accompitahed interpretesses, the Misses Cleveland, daughters of Collector J. F. Cleveland; Mrs, Cleve- land, Mr. Stewart, the manager of the exhibition, and others. The Pére sported a beaver from the latest block and was draped in a becoming overcoat of dark blue. His clothes had evidently been pre- pared by an artist, and the curious ones present appeared to enjoy them very much. Besides the ladie@ Mr. Quidnunc, in duplicat:, triplicate and ad infinitum, was ever on the qi vive—a sate of things which to the reverend monk was very Gaul-ing. After @ survey of the machinery in detati, during which the Pere scattered @ great many interjec- tions—“‘Bon! bien! belle! N’est ce pas 2”? he made a detour of the grand hall, stopping frequently to ad- mire things of special interest, such as the looms, ‘the picturesque arrangement of the stiver and plated ‘ware, the pyramids of soap, the spiral spring butts, the wooilens, » buntings and other fabrics of domestic manufaciure. The Pere expressed him- self as both surprised and delighted at the wonder- ful development of American resources shown in the aisplay, aud remarked that in the mechanical de- partment America stood in advance of France. He ‘Was jittle troubled by imquisitors, though many stood ready for an onslaught when & break should occur tn ‘the ranks of ms fair and intrepid gides. At five o'clock, with his delighted rary and an expression which some declared to be Napo- Jeonic, and others Beecner’s Own, he retired to visit the Temple Emanuel, at Forty-third street and Fiftn avenue, where he remained during the service.

The London Times has an editorial on American finances, Wherein the writer comments on Secretary Boutwell’s advocacy of paying the national dept in gold, and considers the very necessity of such an advocacy a proof of the strength of the repudiators, Mr. Boutweil’s appeal for paying the debt will earn him glory and patriotism, The obligation cannot be put too simply and nakedly, It tsa duty which Ameri- ca owes primarily to the creditor. The nation does not want any other reason but that the creditors’ right pointed out to lt, The security of the Americans’ public faith is excelient, but their liability to alter the terms of the contract against the will of the credi- tors would render their best security bad. The only sound rule to give capttal courage to permeate the union is that “a bargain is a bargain,” and that it is a suMcient reason why one party is bound to keep it that the other party to it has made his arrange- ments on the faith of its being kept.

Acopy of avery important despatch from Ear! Granville to Governor Musgrave regarding the con- federation of British Columbia with Canada has just been communicated to Sir John Young. The Colo- nial Secretary says that New Rnpert’s Land and the Northwest Territory are to be united to Canada. Her Majesty’s government is of opinion that British Co- Jambia should also be united with the Dominion, Regarding the advantages to be derivea from sach # union Earl Granville saya:—Her Majesty's govern- ment anticipate that the interests of the provinces of British North America will be more advanced, and that it will better enable the wealth and credit and intelligence of the people to be brought to bear on every part than by encouraging each in the con- tracted policy of taking care of itself, possibly at the expense of its neighbor. Most especially is this true in cases of internal transit. Ic is evident that the establishment of a British line of communication between the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans is more feasible by the operation of a single govern- ment, responsible for its progress to both shores of the continent, than by bargain negotiated between separate and perhaps in some respects rival governments and legisiatures, ‘The San Francisco of British North America would, under these circumstances, hold a greater commer- cial and political position than would be attainable as the capital of the isolated colony of British Co- jumbia, Her Majesty’s government is aware that the distance between Ottawa and Victoria presents areal diMcuity in the way of immediate unton; but that very aiMcuity will not be witbont advantage, if it renders easy communication indispensable and forces onward operations which are to complete it. In any case it is an understood inconvenience anda diminishing one, and it appears far better to accept it asa temporary drawback on the advantages of the union than to wait for obstacles to be encoun- tered hereafter more mtractable, which are sure to spring up after negievt ed opportunity. The despatch also authorizes Governor Musgrave to communicate with Sir John Young, or take such steps as can be constitutionally taken for pro- moting the favorable consideration of the question, It also says the constitution of British Columbia will oblige the government to enter personally on many questions, such as the condition of the Indian tribes and the fatnre position of the government Accounts, with which In case of & negotiation be- tween two responsibie goveraments he would not ve bound to concern himselt, KENTUCKY.

CABINET SECRETS POSED, The Tricks of Spiritual Mediamy—low They Humbag People—Explanation of the Daven. port Mysteries. Dr. W. J. Von Vieck gave at the Everett Rooms last evening a very interesting lecture, exposing the deceptive practices of spiritual mediuma and the tricks of the Davenport brothers ana other similar jugglers. The lecture was accompanied by the per- formance, in the presence of the audience, of the tricks referred to, and showed conclusively the faisity of the spiritual agency theory. A small cabt- net like that used by the Davenport brotners was placed on the platform, togetner with several musical instruments, ropes, strips of linen and all the paraphernalia employed by the spiritual prodigies, and a committee was appointed by the audience to te the lecturer and otherwise superin- tend the performances, The commenced wiih an explanation of SPIRITUAL RAPPINGS. ‘The Doctor said that he had attended a great many public and private performances by the most noted apiritual inediums, and detatied at length the means vy Which they produced their raps, answers to ques- tons, &c, The most common method of spirit rap- pers was to snap the large muscles of the wrist or legs. By doing us with the pals of the hands rest- | ing on a iabie, or the heels planted trmiy on | the noor, a sound preciselyjsimilar to raps was made, | ‘Yhe speaker did this on the platform without auy | | visible movement of the body, and said that any one could acquire the art by practice. He could snap any of his principal muscles in that manner, and used todo so with the cords of his neck, but had ceased that from fear of dislocation. Female mediums generally produced the raps with their feet concealed under their skirts, which disguised the sound, on the same principle a8 a ventrile ie appears to throw his voice to distant lo ties, The spelling out of answers to questions 30 commonly performed by spiritual mediums invaria- bly fatled when the letters were called ove after the other without any change of them. Persona asking questions im thia manner generally gave uncon- asciously some intimation of the proper ietters to be responded to, and the lecturer narrated several ) amusing incidents of mediama being led to expose their own trickery by careful exaninera, represent ing themselves as Spiritualists and adopting te manner of careless interrogators, THE CABINET TRICKS were then elaborately ilustratea. The lecturer, after being tied so firnily as to leave the impresaton On his wrists a(ter being released, rang @ bell, per- formed on mustcal instruments, thrust therm out of lecturer ee 7 done with, the cabinet doors closed, che Same tricks were performed outside om the platform, ‘fhe principal secret consisted ia Supping the fore arm through the rope tnatead of withdrawing tae hand, and the lecturer showed that by stretching the wrists & pergon could use bis hands with reimarkavle ease, although at first apparently closely tied together. The untying Process Was also gone throngh with. The lecturer, alter being ted by one of the reporters present and pronounced secure, disengaged himself in less time than was re 4d to te him, and also showed how a hand might be ‘released in- stantaneously when mediuina were tied with the square knot so generally used by audience committees. In such cases it was only ssary to twist the knot in @ certain way to Shange it ito two hall litches, which slipped easily, The hand then came out without diiiculty, and, alter performing various tricks, was silpped back again, the Knot drawn down by muscular contrac tion and the performer left tied ag securely ag be- fore. All tuls was performed on cle platform by the lecturer, together with a great var ety of ot which, in the closea cabinet, seemed very mys- terlous, but outside as simple a putting on and re- moving # pair of gloves, ‘The entire periormance was entirely free from attempts at conceaiment, aud nov only dissipar’t the mystery of the Davenport exlilvitions, bat «.- monstrated that with practice any one way acquire the same proficienc; NAVAL INTELLIGENCE.
