A THREATENED RIOT SUPPRESSED. NASHVILLE, Tenn., May 8, 1874. Notwithstanding the many heinous crimes com- mitted in Tennessee since the war, executions of criminals have been exceedingly rare. There have not been exceeding a dogen felons hanged in the vicinity of Nashville since the year 1800, Just at the Glose of the war Champ Ferguson was hung within the Penitentiary walls for waging guerilla Warfare upon the national armory. He was con- demned to death by court martial. In 1865 four desperate characters were sentenced by court martial to expiate the double crime of murder and Tobbery upon the gallows, They were executed in full view of 10,000 people near Fort Houston, in the western portion of the city. The last civil ex- ecution occurred here long before the war. Con- Sequently the hanging of Bill Kelley yesterday was an event in Nashville. HISTORY OF HIS OFFENCE, Bill Kelley was convicted of perpetrating a dia- bolical outrage on the person of a white woman Qamed Moore, residing ten miles west of Nashville, He reached her house at two o'clock in the after- Boon of a dismal, rainy day, and, finding her hus- band absent, attacked and cast her upon the floor. Being a feeble woman she could offerno resist- ance. Thinking to scare him away she told him that she heard her husband approaching. At this information he rushed to the front door, while she attempted to make her escape through the rear door, But the ruse failed; Kelley fol- fowed her, dragged her into an open fleld and back through the house again. While in the building he obtained a razor and put it in his pistol pocket, with the avowed purpose of cutting her throat alter outraging her. He again dragged her into the fleld, she abstracting the razor from his pocket on bis opening a gate, and throwing it away with- out his observing it. A savage would not have been guilty of greater barbarity. He then THREATENED TO MURDER HER. She pleaded that if he would not carry his threats Into execution she would never reveal his crime, He then dragged her body to the house, changed his clothing and left. Upon the arrival of her friends she was found in a pitiable condition, terri bly bruised, with her hair matted with mud. She Mngered for weeks, little hopes being entertained of her recovery, and even now she is a confirmea ‘invalid. Kelley made his iy and was subsequently Srrested at Hickman, Ky., and returned to Nash- ville, where he has been confined ever since. THB TRIAL AND CONVICTION. He was tried at the December term, 1873, of the Davidson County Court, and convicted. On the 12th of February last Kelley’s attorney argued a motion fora new trikl, but unsuccessfully. The Judge, in reviewing the case, sald that the evi- dence showed that Kelley had been gullty of one the most heinous crimes in the criminal calen- ir. He recited the tacts of the ontrage, and said he could see no way in which to grant a new trial, aud would pronounce the death penalty accord- ingly. Kelley remained unmovea during the ae- livery of the Judge’s opinion, and dia not seem to Fealize the awful position in which he stood. He was sentenced to be hanged on the 20th of March, but an appeal having been taken, he ob- tained a respite. His counsel relied upon excep- tons taken to the charge of the.Judge, but Chief Justice A. O. P, Nicholson,gin delivering the opinion of the Appellate Court, concluded that the detend- @nt had been properiy. convicted, and pronounced the jndgment affirmed, He then proceeded to pass sentence as follows :— THE SENTENCE. pany; you have been tried by a jury and con- pee of the crime ot outrage, committed, accord- to the proof and the circumstances, in the most aggravated manner. The case is 80 clearly out against you that it cannot but be re- You had a {air trial, and the jury had a {ull warrant to come to the con- they did, Annexed to this crime is the alty of death. It becomes my unpleasant duty | ow to pronounce that solemn sentence upon the ‘igoner. “It 19 the law that deciares that this prisoner has forieited his life. 1t is impossible to conceive of a Righer crime than that for which he, Bull Kelley, stands properly convicted. “I recommend to you most earnestly to occupy the few remaining days allotted to you in prepar- ing especially to meet your God, “It is useless With such a record as this to indulge in the hope of pardon irom the Governor. “4t is, therefore, ny duty to declare that on Fri- @ay, the 8th day of May, 1874, between the hours of ten A. M. and four P. M., you be taken to a gallows to be erected in Davidson county, at a distance from the city as prescribed by law, and there ve hanged by the neck until dead; may the Lord have mercy on your soul.”” As the last words of the sentence died away Keliey was observed to undergo a kind oi shiver and appeared dumbfonuded for the moment. He goon recovered his self-possession, however, and Bou long after was returned to bis cell. THE CONDEMNED BAPTIZED. Shortly after nis sentence Keiley was baptized in a large tin bathing tub in the presence of thirty reons, consisting mosily of his own color. ‘eliey coming out of the water clapping his hands, On the 22d of April he made a pretence of confess- ing, but really gave no facts and wien questioned ‘as to the details of the crime, peremptorily refused to respond. He was so much airaid that he would way something which might make his chances for the commutation of his sentence less probable ‘that he had his “‘statement’’ written ont, and out- side of it nothing could be obtained trom him. The following is Sener OF KELLEY. There now state about what I know about Mrs. Moore. She has swear something against me that I was never guilty of, although I wish her no harm J hope she will meet me in heaven. I went to her house to carry a hand-axe and she invited me down off my horse and I got off my horse and went in, and she requested of me to go to the spring to bring a couple of buckeis of water for her, andI ‘went and brung them; and atter I brung the water she requested Of me to bring her some wood, and I brung the wood according to her request; and at- ter t one of her neignbor’s children came into the house. Then she asked me to kill the chicken. After she had dressed the chicken, then she asked me for two dollars, and | asked her what did she want with the money, and she sai that she ‘wanted to get her a pair of shoes, and I cold her I didn’t have the money to spare. I needed all the money I had, and she still insisted of me to ve her the money. * * * I never hurt her it told her I would give her the money. * * * lam thirty-eight years of age.

INTERVIEW WITH THE 00) R NDEMNED, Kelley was visited in bis cell at midnight last night, ‘and also this morning, by a HegaLp re- porter, One thousand and sixty-nine persons called to gee him yesterday, and he talkea with all ol them freely about his approaching death. He tested his innocence, but said he was willing to tte, though it was hurd todie in the flush of y He ‘said if the jail door were lett open he would not walk out, This morning early he was dressed in a new suit of black clothes, presented him by the jatlor, with white vest, white gloves and black vel- vet slippers. Im conversation with the HERALD reporter he said he wanted to be reported as using good English IN HIS TALK ON THE GALLOWS, and was very desirous the doctors should not get his body after death. He told the reporter he slept better last night than any night since he was ut in jail, and that he had eaten a very hearty Preaktaat. He said that the Lord was standing at the gate of heaven to receive him, that his physical suffering would be out for a moment and that he ‘would soon be at rest, He has two children, @ girl nineteen years old and a boy seventeen, living at Jeffersonville, Ind., neither of whom know of his having been arrested, At one time he thought of having a letter written them to be sent after his death, but afterwards concluded not to, as he saya the children are re- ctable and he don’t want them to know of the disgrace beooghs upon them, He has led a roving life for several years past. HIS TALK TO VISITORS, In talking to a crowd of visitors yesterday he said:—‘‘Well, friends, 1 suppose you come to hear what @ doomed man has to say. Friends, 1 am here itke Daniel in the lions’ den. | am not Daniel. lam the lion. He prayed to the Lord to open the den, and God opened it,” Kelley was BSCORTED TO THE GALLOWS by a detachment of police and the Sheriff's posse of fifty men. A great many women and young girls from the country were in the crowd, and the demi-monde Were out in force inhacks, Kelley was attended by Rev. Mr. Conb, a brother of Supervisor Cobb and of United States Senator Cobb, and also by acolored preacher named Merry. He was cool and collected, and in addressing the crowd per- sisted he was an innocent man; that all he had done to Mrs. Moore was at her offer, and that he a der $2, He said she had sworn falsely inst his but he hoped to meet ner in heaven. There as GREAT EXCITEMENT AMONG THE COLORED PEOPLE, who filled the air with groans and lamentations, Just after the drop fell some horses began kicking and frightened others attached to two hacks, who ran off. The vebicles were surrounded by tnou- sands of people, who rushed towards the scaffold, breaking down the ropes and driving back the guards, and fora moment it was thought there ‘Was a riot among the colored people and that they would cut Kelley duwo. The guards pressed the crowd back, hundreds of pistols were drawn by citizens and terrible confusion prevailed. Women and children were trampled upon and several were injured, a colored justice of the peace having his leg broken. MURDER IN NORTH OAROLINA, WILMINGTON, N.'O., May 8, 1874. A letter received here irom Rockingham, in Richmond county, states that a day or two since @ Mr. C. Yarboro was instantly killed by one Sam- uel Davis under circumstances of a most unfortu- nate nature. The case, as related, goes to show that Yarboro ‘was accused of having some unpleasant words with Davis’ wife, and that morning Yarboro, in Passing the house of Davis, was accosted by his wife, who demanded to know why he had given hér the lie. Yarboro disclaimed any knowledge of applying such Janguage to her, whereupon Davis, husband of the woman, setzed a spade, and, with one fell blow, split the head of Yarboro, dashing out his brains. Davis was immediately arrested and incarcerated in the jailof Montgomery county. THE NEW DOMINION. Scheme for the Construction of the Cana= dian Pacific Railroad—The Leading Features=The Subsidies and Grants from the Government—Branch Lines To Be Rapidly Pushed Forward. Orrawa, May 8, 1876, Hon. Alexander Mackenzie, Minister of Public Works, will move to-day that the House go into Committee of the Whole on Tuesday next to con- sider a new measure providing for the construc- tion of the Canadian Pacific Railway. The follow- ing are THE LEADING FEATURES OF THE BILL:— The road is to be divided into four sections, The first will extend from Lake Nipissing to the upper or western end of Lake Superior; the second from Lake Superior to Fort Garry; the third from Fort Garry to some point between Fort Edmonston and the Rocky Mountains; the fourth from the last named section to the Pacific Ocean at some point in British Columbia. There will be two branches, one from Fort Garry to Pembina, the other westward from the Eastern terminus, south of Lake Nipissing, and eastward to some point on the Ottawa River. The last named branch isa feature of the undertaking which was not included im the original Canadtan Pacific Ratiway bill, A line of telegraph is to be constructed along the whole extent of the railway and its branches in advance of the construction of the road, and as soon as the route has been determined upon the billenacts that it may be constructed either by private enterprise or as @ government work. The act of 1872 declared that it shonld be built and worked by private enterprise and not by the Dominion government, and by one company. The gauge is to be four feet eight and a half inches, and the whole general management of the undertaking is tobe ander the charge of the Minister of Public Works, The bill provides that the several sections may be divided into sub-sections, the contractors for sec- tions or sub-sections to construct and work their respective portions on terms to be settled by the Governor and Council, subject to certain general provisions. The act fixes a subsidy of $10,000 per mile, aland grant of 200,000 acres per mile, and @ guarantee of four per cent tor a given number of years on a sum to be stated in the contract jor each mile of the section contracted for; the ten- der for the work to state the lowest sum per mile for which guarantee is to be required, The money subsidy will be Feat upon monthly estimates and in proportion to the nature and cost of the work performed. The land is to be in twenty square mile blocks along the line of the road. Care will be takén to provide against land jobbery by the government keeping control of over two-thirds of the land, which is to be sold by them at prices to be agreed upon, the proceeds to be accounted for to the company half yearly in proportion to the work done. The remaining third will be handed over to the company in the same proportion, The lands are to be available and of lair average quality. If such lands cannot be found on the line o1 the road itself they are to be allotted elsewhere. The cost of the surveys will be a charge upon the subsidy, No contract for any por- tion of the main line of the railway will be binding Without first receiving the Hawes of Parliament, In every contract there will be a clause reserving to the government the right to assume nie wie railway of the whole or an; Beotlor of on payment of ten ber cent addition to the original cost, less the value of land ana money subsidies received, and if it 1s decided to construct the railway a8 & public work of the Do- minion the construction will be by contracts, first offered to public competition, and the regulations for the subsequent management will be made by the Governor in Council. The branches of the road will be subject in the foregoing iene to precisely the same conditions aa the main line. The bill will give powers to the Governor in Council to grant a bonus to any company that may, with grants of land or money from the province ot Ontario, secure the construction of the branch lines extending from the eastern terminus of the main line to connect with existing or proposed lines of railway in Ottawa Valley. The Governor in Council will also be empowered to make with the company or companies owning any part of the said branch ratiway arrangements for leasing to them any portion which may belong to the government. ‘The leases, however, will not be allowed to exceed @ term of ten years, and to be binding, must first be approved by the House of Commons, Power is given to the Governor in council to suspend pro- gress of the works at any time until the next ensuing session of Parilament, ‘The bill will contain no stipulation as to the time to be occupied in the construction of the road. It will recognize the authority of Parliament over the judgment, dis- cretion and good faith of the administration to whom the duty of setting the work tn motion and to letting the contracts ts intrusted. The branch lines connecting the eastern terminus with tne Georgian Bay and to the Ottawa River, and Fort Garry with Pembina will be rapidly pushed for- ward. The latter only waita for information as io the progress made by American companies, con- nection with which it is inteaded to establish. Washed Ashore from a Wreck. QUEBEC, May 8, 1874. The Collector of Customs at Magdalen Island writes a letter to the Marine Department, stating that on the 20th of December last four chests con- taining seamen’s clothing, bedding, &c., were found on the north beach of Greenstone Island, in one of which were @ number of letters written in Italian and Greek, and in another a slip of paper with the words, “Ship St. Kevin, of Dublin, Cap- the end ot which was & swung on hinges, At the of the platform was an upright beam deeply in the ground, connected with nich waa & crossbeam, firmly braced the entire length of the platiorm. The rope was tied near pase of the upright beam, extending over he crossbeaw, and connecting ‘and upholding the trap door, While the noose was fastened to the end oft the croasbeam. A DBSIRE TO BE HUNG “OFFICIALLY.” Kelley sent a message to Sherif Whitworth the other requesting to see him. On Sherif ‘Whitworth visiting bis cell Kelley told him that it ‘was bis desire that be, Whitworth, should han, him, and no one else; that if he was to be hange he wished it done ‘‘oMcially.” Hearing at- | terward, from some vague source, pernaps, | that Sherlif Whitworth proposed engaging some | one else to cut the rope that was to launch him wmto eternity, Kelley again sent tor him, and ear- nestly requested him that no one else but himself ry hang him.

Lonpon, April 20, 1874, Mr. Toole, who sails from Liverpool in July and opens at Wallack’s in the course of’ the succeeding month, his thought it necessary to add a new character to his répertoire, and has appearea at the Globe Theatre in a new comedy, called “Wig and Gown.’ The unfortunate author, who has never been able to score a success sinee the pro- duction of his first play, “The Two Roses,” has at length produced a second piece which will prob- ably draw a great deal of money. This, however, 1s not due to its intrinsic merits, for it is vilely constructed, and abounds in 1arcical and improb- able incidents; but in1t Mr. Toole is fitted with a character which not merely affords scope for his extravagancies, but gives him opportunity for the exhibition of that genuine artistic appreciation which he has always at com- mand, but which he so seldom exercises. The hero of the new play is Hammond Coote, a barrister without practice, so notorious for his nervousness and stupidity that no case is ever tn- trusted to him. Lodging in the same house with him is an old lady, the Hon, Miss Kenrentie, who, being made the dejendant in an action for ejectment from her family property, suddenly determines to make Coote her counsel. This idea is applauded by one Sonbyson Siel, who is strongly interested on the other side, and who hopes that, owing to Coote’s idiotic proceedings and want of legal knowledge, his client will be defeated. The second act shows us the scene in court, There has been an adjournment for luncheon, and Coote, who knows that he has been maxing a fool of himsell, is trembling at the thought of hav- ing to begin again. Well may he doso, He asks the most ridiculous questions, tries to upset the evidence of his own witnesses, drops his papers, loses his place and commits every kind of absurd- ity. Suddenly a change occurs in his demeanor. Sonbyson Siel is under examination, and gives evidence relative to the real heir to the estate, who has been missing since childhoud. A sudden light breaks upon Coote; he throws off his ner- vousness, his fooiery; he asks question aiter question, ail most pertinent, and finally, with diguified simplicity, he proves that he himself is the missing heir tothe estate under litigation. It is dificult to imagine anything more thoroughly artistic than this portion of Mr. Toole’s performance. That he can make the audience yell and scream with laughter we all know; but the way in which he compels their serious attention evidences far higher gifts, On the whole, “Wig and Gown,” though not doing much for Mr. Albery, will do a great deal for Mr. Toole, and will, I doubt not, pe greatly relished in the United States. Many persons here think that some of Mr. Toole’s impersonations are so essentially cockneyfied in character as to be almost unintelligible out of England; but in Hammond Coot2 there 1s a touch of nature which will be recognized everywhere. AN AMERICAN COMEDIAN. Mr. J, S. Clarke, who on his first appearance among us was advertised as “The American Cana- dian,” has made his reappearance at the Holborn Theatre in @ new comedy by Mr. Byron, called “The Thumbscrew.”” The hero of this is also a lawyer; but his adventures consist of a series of puffoon- eries unrelieved by any pathos, or, indeed, any quietude. Mr; J. 8. Clarke is unlike any of the artists who have come to us from America; very unlike, indeed, to Joe Jefferson, whose memory is yet green among us, and who would receive a tremendous welcome if he would omijfpay us a second visit, Not like J. P. Owens pat 5 He is a 1acemaker and a boay contortionist; but of real humor he has a very small share. He makes the people roar with laughter at his ‘“mugging;” but when the laugh has died away one feels rather ashamed of one’s self at having given it, AN AMERICAN ACTRESS, Mins Genevieve Ward (Mme. Gugrrabella) has made her appearance at the Adelphi, and is win- ning golden opinions by her good looks and her powerful melodramatic interpretation. MONT BLANC ON THE'STAGE, ‘The new comedy, “Queen Mab,” at the Haymar- ket, is @ failure, and apiece to be called “Mont | | Feavement. One-third of the party will consist of Blanc,” the striking feature of which will be a dra- matic illustration of the ascent of the mountain, is im rehearsal. New scenery, properties and cos- tumes are being prepared from sketches made on the spot. MORE LUCK. The revival of the “School for Scandal)” at the Prince of Wales’, of which I wrote you last week, has proved a real success and no seats are to be had for some time to come. MR, HENRY IRVING, “Philip” not having proved so successful as was expected (you may remember my saying that it wanted stamina), Mr. Irving is about to appear in @ revival of the “Bells,” which will be followed by “Charles the First” and “Eugene Aram.” FRENCH PLAYS.

Benedictio Dei, &c, THE PAPAOY IN AUSTRIA. Count Andrassy’s Definition of the Rights of the Crown and the Duty of | the Vatican, The Neue Freie Presse of Vienna, April 16, pub- lishes an abstract of the note addressed by Count Andrassy to the Vatican on the late Papal Encyc- licaL This note is a continuation of the commu- nications which the Vienna Cabinet has during the last few years made to the Curia in view of the | changes which were taking place in religious affairs. Among the despatches on this subject one of the most important was that of the 10th of February, 1870, which shewed that the novelties introduced into the Catnolic Church would necessarily cause an alteration in its rela- tions with the State. Count Andrassy points out “that the regulation of the limits to which the authority of the Onarch and the State severally extends has now become @ necessity in | the interest of both,” and he supports by numer- ments the right of the State to make laws ous with that object. He eye arene ene on the cir- cumatance that there “is no intention of making use of the religious laws in order to encroach upon | the proper sphere of the Church,” and he clearly describes the form which the relations between Church and State in Austria are to assume in [u- | ture. In conclusion, be protests energeticully | fatnst tue last Papal Encyclical as an interierence | with the internal affairs of the Austrian Empire. | “This ew he says, ‘ioments opposition to | the laws of Aust and ifthe Curia should again thus abuse its privil of communicating with the A ipiscopate the government will find it necessary to provect the fiterests oi the State by exercising a ri munications from the CAMP MEETING PREPARATIONS. Improvements at Sea Cliff!Who Are Building and What Is Expected—The Outlook for 1874. A few weeks more will bring the camp meeting season full into view, and already extensive prep- arations are in hand to make the approaching séa- son the most successful that has been witnessed. ‘The Metropolitan Camp Ground is located at Sea Clit, on the Sound, whither, on ‘Tuesday, lot own- ers and their friends took an excursion at the ex- Pense of the association. Last year the associa- tiou ran the steamboat Arrowsmith between this city aud the camp ground; but the boat was a slow \\sailer, and though the Seawanaka, which ran to | Glen Cove, was prohibited from landing at the Sea Chm qaock and charged a little more fare, passengers preferred to travel by her and pay additional for her superior ac- | commodations and greater speed. The Arrowsmith | hardly paid expenses, and the association sold | her last winter for $40,000, making thereby a profit | of $10,000 by the transfer, The association has since | | | tican in future.’” purchased the steamboat General Sedgwick, a large boat, but hardly es substantial as the Arrow. smith. The Sedgwick ran last year between New York and Coney Island, but was not deemed exactly | suited to the rough sail down the Bay. It will doubtless answer better for the more placid waters of the Sound and the less turbulent class of pas. sengers that will travel to the camp ground, BXCURSION TO SEA CLIFF YESTERDAY. Yesteraay a company, numbering between 200 and | 300 persons, accepting the association’s invitation of an excursion for lot owners and their friends, started trom Peck Slip for Sea Cliff by the Sedg- wick. The boat started prompily at nine A. M., and in doing so left behind quite a little company who arrived at the shp a few minutes behind time, to find themselves left behind. Some of them, however, went up by the Long Isiand Railroad | and returned by the boat. The company included | several Ministers from New York and Brooklyn | and many prominent Methodis( iaymen and their Jamthes from both cities. The day was delightiul, ! und the sail up and down the Sound was charming, ‘che improvements on the camp ground, present id Dens pective are very promising. mr L. A. Battershall has a fine eee nearly completed, | and already has some furniture and fixtures | moved into it. It is perhaps the most costly | house on the camp ground, and ts designed ior | Permanent occupancy. Its estimated cost is $15,000, The Rev.

Lawrence, of Brook- | lyn, and Mr. Howe, baker, of this ae have also | two very handsome cottages nearly finished, and designed for permanent residences, whose cost is estimated at $6,500 each. Other cottages or | smaller pretensions and less cost are alsv going | up, and by the time the camp meeting opens in | | July the grounds will exhibit a commendabie ad- vance on last year’s condition. | SHE OLD LADIES’ HOME | is receiving some finishing touches, and Mrs, Ad- ams, the matron, was up yesterday looking alter | it, Roads and waiks have been and will be graded | | and greatly improved before midsummer. ‘The | fences have been removed between the old pur- | chases and some of the new camp ground addi- | tions, and a moderate business im the sale of lots has gone on all the year. The old Long Island Im- provement Association has dicd 9 natural bann unhonored and unsung, and some oF its effects an: “fixtures” have been sold and others are awaiting purchasers. The Long Island Kallroad Company | have consented to allow a depot to be built on their road, 1acing the camp ground, and to stop their trains there for the accommodation of | passengers, and the Camp Meeting Association | Wil 1un @ line of cabs or omnibuses between the camp grounds and the depot, provided they can | Shean the right of way of the property owners in- tervening, which will hardly be refused. This will bring the’ raiiroad facilities within ten or fifteen minutes’ walk or ride of the camp ground. The Sea Clif Assoctation have also removed the steam- boat restrictions 80 that the Seawanaka can land sengers at the camp dock on all her trips, Sun- 3 excepted. The Sedgwick will go np to the ‘ound every morning about eight A. M., return g therefrom about five P. M., thas giving BXCURSIONISTS AND PICNIC PARTIBS a good day’s pleasure. The Seawanaka wif con- | tinue her afternoon trips as usual, returning to the clty in the morning, thus giving business men | ample opporturfity to enjoy the country atr and to attend to their city business likewise. The cost of the round trip by the Sedgwick, as in contempla- | tion, is eighty cents. This 18 a little more than was | charged last year, but it ts believed that the supe- | ror facilities for travel and accommodation will warrant the increase, Passengers may not see it ar An} Ppuervision over such com. | 5 ‘ven families are now on the grounas, seven. have resided there all winter, © couple of reat estate agents are plying their cating on the goes and are represented to be duing a flourish- ing business.

The camp meeting season of 1874 at Sea Cliff is, however, on the whole very promising. BEECHER’S FRIDAY NIGHT TALK, Religion Judged Scientifically and Sym- pathetically—Collection for the Normal School at Harper’s Ferry. Last night begun the eight o'clock prayer meet- ing at Plymouth Church. The lecture-room anu parlors were crowded, as usual. After the custom- ary services Mr. Beecher said:—Men often find fault with religious people for judging the results of scientific research with incom- petent knowledge. They say that it re- quires a particular style of investigation and education to acquire a knowledge of science, and that clergymen living on a different plane are incompetent to judge. There 1s @ great deal of truth in this, and there is just as much truth om the other side. Scientific men have such a train- ing a8 unfits them to judge of truth as to the question of prayer, of divine prewidence, of the sympathetic relations of Godin t@e human soul. What do men studying in the laboratory know of humanity? I am brought into relations with struggling men and women, and how does it look to me, for instance, the question of the existence of God? I don’t look at it at all from the scientific view. I look at ivfrom the need of the human soul, and Jour Heavenly Father knows what you need, and God so administers the word that our prayers are potent, 1can understand how on some lines of thought aman may drift away into skepticiem and atheism; but if a man lets out his whole soul he cannot help but feel the power of God, My mind is borne to this matter because I have seem 80 much trouble lately. We have gone through great pecuniary troubles and there have been am increasing number of deaths and @ great many other dificulties we have passed through which require stability and fortitude and patience and, above ei, a iaith in an overruling Providence; and so my mind has run on this—namely, that faith and trust in the providence of God are indispensable to us, How many secret griefy there are that cannot enter the minds of our most intimate friends. Think of the distress in families. Think of the distress that there is outside of houses. 1 can understand how aman, fresh and young, can meet such emergengies, but for a man, enfeebled, broken down, it is hard. We know all these things, and we argue not against gn overruling Providence, but of the necessity for an OVERRULING PROVIDENCE, I know that this consciousness lifts men and carries a man in a manly way, holding him steady when he is prosperous and sustaining him when he is depressed, keeping all the ireshness of lite, strengthening him in God. The love oi God is the balm of this and all sorrows without it are isons, bu* all sorrows and ghame with God are Toe the present grievous, but afterwards there is eace. Look back on your life when goo have ad a tough time and tell me if the best ti ings oe have got have not come out of troubie. en ou Baye been under the anvil you are more shapely, Here Mr, Beecher gave a space for remarks and a brother said:—‘I have the same order of mind rou have, but I am one of those who can’t help looking at ete in an intellectual way and taking my comfort logically. (‘I am sorry for you,” said Mr. Beecher.) Owing to this peculiarity in my mind whenever I am fn doubt, in a skeptical frame. of mind, as { was a few weeks ago, | know of no better way than to get hold of a thoroughly athe- istic book. I found in such a one a very ingen- fous argument, showing that God must be greater than we, so that all idea of His having a friendship for us was folly. God must necessarily ‘be raised so far above man that it would be absurd to think that He devoted His time to us; that He was as far above us as @ being ig above a heap of anis. Iwas struck with the force of the argu- ment, but afterwards I carried it further and com- pared the idea of such a God with tne result of among men. I comforted myself logi- greatness | cally this way :—Is it not a lact that the greater a man is the more he knows of a subject the more he is interested in it? nan =who knows moat about the most interest in it. Well, I that that this Divine Being is a Being who knows all things ; He must be the lug who created me, and He can read my heart, and this helps me. ‘The morel believe in the greatness and wisdom of God the more I believe in a God who loves and takes ineach one of us, and I believe that the growth of science, although it may lead to douvs at present, will be a blessing Support to re- on im the future. Avother brother asked Mr. Beecher if he did not, think it discouraging that only 2,000,000 out of 13,000,000 on the globe were professed Christiuns. ir. Beecher said:—{ always said that theolo- gians cooped up in @ closet found it easy to WALK OFF INTO DOCTRINES and teil what God would and would not do, We are not required to answer for ali those who have gone before us and all those who will come after us. That conception of Goa which is tormed ordinarily, the arch conception, don’t meet the facts of nature. There bas got to be a larger view. It is juired of & man according to what he hath, and not. according to what he hath not; and he that hath not the law shall not be judged by the law. We are judged according to our light and opportunity, and God is infinitely more inclined to mercy than the interpreters of God are. We will now sing 4 hyma and then have a little afterpart, Alter the hymn Mr. Beecher said:—We have here a lady who has labored in the western part of Virginia in the establishment of educational in- stitutions. 1 told her she might have an oppor. tunity to make a brief statement of the work and then we will take a collection for the cause. ‘The lady, Miss Dudley, appeared on the platform and said :—At the close of the war I went into the Shenandoah Valley, and schools were established all throughout that region, When | went to my first school there was only a log cabin, and it was the coldest weather I ever kuew tn Virginia. We had to put boards up to the windows to protect ourselves from shots, and I had to carry # re- volver. My schoolroom counted 150, and now two churches have grown from that, The next place I commenced with seventeen scholars and worked three years, during which time not one of the pastors of the city came near me to give me a word of cheer, except one young man; and ont of that school two larger churches have grown; and so all along these schools grew and out of these schools grew the | institution at Harper’s Ferry, which I now rep- resent. We have five buildings there, but | that is only a part of what is needed. We must enlarge. the work. Where we have | 60 workers we need 500, It is a work of the | greatest importance and I desire you to pray for | us, and be assured that whatever offering you | give for this work fs the ransom price Oi souls, and: ! when Goa makes up your crown of jewels He will not forget to say, Inasmuch ag you did it to the least of these ye re done it unto me. THE SUMMER HEGIRA, The German steamship Washington, belonging to the Baltic Lloyd, bound for Stettin via Copen- | hagen, which is to leave this city to-day, is to-takea | back five out of the six “prison birds” sent over here by the Copenhagen police authorities, who evidently look upon the Untted States as a penat | settlement.

[t was thought at the Danish Consmlate in this city yesterday that the Danish Minister, Hegermann Lindecrone, at Washington has made representations to the Danish govern ment as to sending convicts to this country, THE OUBA CABLE.
