The Vermont Central filed a general demurrer on the same ground. * Judge Barrett announced the decision of the Court at three o'clock, which was that the objects of the bill and petition were the same.

A Quiet Ceremony—Slight Indica- tions of Disapproval. THE MILITARY PARADE DESCRIBED. | The Coffin Laid in a Bed of Cement. Montreat, ‘Nov, 16, 1875. Chief of Police Penton was ordered to report this morning with 100 men to the Mayor of Cote des Neiges and Outemont, and a body of men were ordered to Proceed armed to the Catholic Cemetery to protect those engaged in digging the grave. At half-past eight o'clock Chief of Police Penton met the Mayor, at the residence of the latter and received instructions to march his whole reserve force of about 100 men to the Protestant Cemetery. The force left the Central Police Station ata quarter to nine o'clock, headed by the Chief himself, and accompanied by detectives, Forty of the men were armed with breech-loading Snyder Enfield rifles, the remainder merely being armed with batons. They proceeded in columns of tours along St, James street to Bloury street, and along that to the Protestant Cemetery. In accordance with instructions the Volunteers turned out on the Champ de Mars this forenoon. The Victoria rifles was the first battalion to Put in an appearance, and to the number of about 250, officers and men. They collected in the drill shed, oppo- site the Champ de Mars, at eight o'clock. They were formed in companies, some of which were ordered to stand at ease, while the remainder passed’ the time in company drill, At about 8:30 o'clock Coles, Fletcher and Bacon rode into Champ de Mars, The water police were armed with Spencer rifles. Judge Coursol, in order to be prepared for the worst, had an extract from the Riot act got ready yesterday afternoon. Ata quarter to nine o'clock No. 1 of the Montreal Engineers, under command of Devine, came on the ground, formed in line, and were commanded to stand at ease, ‘They numbered about thirty files, and appeared with- out overcoats, Shortly afterward the Victorias were formed in acolumn of fours and marched from the rill shed to Champ De Mars, where they remained in companies. The Sixth Hochelagas then came on the ground, led by Colonel Martin. There were about 250 in all present. As they marched. past the Vic- torias they were saluted by that regiment and took ground to the right, facing the Court House, The Sixth had their overcoats wrapped in @ novel fashion around their shoulders. At half-past nine o'clock the Prince of Wales rifles, under command of Lieutenant Colonel Bond, next ap- peared on the scene, led by a fifeand drum band. The companies were full, there being about 250 members of the regiment present, They took a position to the right of the Hochelagas. VERY LITTLE INTEREST. By this time a considerable number of spectators yied the steps of the Champ de Mars, but not much nterest seemed to be manifested, In fact, an im- Pression seemed to prevail that the police were going to do work at the Cemetery. THE MARCH, ‘The Garrison Artillery, to the number of over 200, under Colonel McKay, marched on the field and took a Position to the right of the Prince of Wales’ Own, Tho cavalry and Colonel Stevenson’s battery appearing at this time, at command of Colonel Fletcher, the troops moved to the right in fours, and marching down the hill at St.’ Gabriel’s church, proceeded along Craig Street, the artillery of course leading. Crowds of people lined Craig street and evidently enjoyed the spectacle, OPERATIONS AT THE GRAVE. At the Catholic cemetery, about half-past eight, Mr. Reid and Mr, Boisseau, Superintendent of the Institut, accompanied by.a couple of farmers’ men, came up to the Protestant cemetery with their tools and a quan- tity of Portland cement, and about nine o’clock en- tered the Catholic cemetery from the back and com- menced operations at the grave. The ground was found to be frozen about six inches down, while there ‘was a thin layer of snow on the surface. ' However, by half-past nine the two diggers had got down about two feet, making the excavation directly over Mme. Guibord’s coffin, The hole to contain the coffin measures eight teet in length and three feet In width, and wiil descend avout four feet, The coffin of the late Mme, Guibord was reached without difficulty and an opening made on each side and at the ends in order to admit of a thick layer of Portland cement being introduced. At a quarter past nine A. M. a squad of police, eighteen in number, arrived in charge of Sergeant Fekonninck, and were drawn up round the burial lot, forming a hol- low be wr) from the inside of which all civilians, ex- cept Messrs. Boisseau, Reid and the reporters, were ex- cluded, The scene was quiet, only a few members of the Institut and two or three boys being present, besides those officially engaged. Some twenty or thirty young French Canadian roughs gathered at or near the vault, ‘and, asa reporter's carriage drove up about fifteen min- utes past nine, they stood compactly in the wry till the driver was about to stop or thot out to them when they slowly opened, and, pecring into it intently, let it pass, When Messrs. Boisseau and Reid first arrived the Choquette Secretary of Fabrique and Mr. De Roohe, sexton, came over and took official cognizance of tne grave digging, after which they departed at ten o'clock, The grave was finished and ready for the coffin, Betore it goes in Mr. Reid makes a thick bed of cement, which will rest on the lid of Mme. Guibord’s coffin and form a foundation on which to rest the coffin and then build up side walls of cement. NOT TWENTY SPECTATORS, At ten o’clock not over twenty spectators were to bo seon, but were collecting from both ways. A head, plate, with the following inscription, was dug ap by the grave diggers from Mme. Guibord’s cofin:— nernccrrersesovonrsecoorrrserocecseprereseretere® Henrietta Brown, Veuve de Joseph Guibord, Dé-y c6d6é le 24 Mars, 1873, a age de 65 Aus.” Bes: /lalleg dicde Ratesheet RELIC HUNTERS. ‘The cross, which was standing all right on Sunday, ‘was this morning found lying on the snow torn apart. It bears marks of the knives of relic hunters, and is well whittled up. At ten minutes after ten o’clock @ number of member of the Institut, wear- ing their badges of mourning, came and ‘became attentive spectators of the solemn scene. The Mayor sopeered on Cha:np de Mars for a few moments, about half an hour before the troops set out. Cotonel Love- lace accompanied Colonel Fletcher. The troops pro- ceeded along Craig street to St. Lawrence, the main street, marching at shoulder for some little distance, {ter which they were allowed to march at ease, GUIBORD'S REMAINS. ‘The police formed a hollow square around the ceme- tery vaults, and Mr. Spriggins, producing the keys, uniocked the massive iron doors. As they swung ‘open he and his men entered, followed by tho friends of the deceased. After a littie delay the coffin contain- ing Guibord’s remains was produced, when Mr. Boisseau asked if those were the remains of the late Joseph Guibord, kept by him for six years, delivered up by him again on the 2d of September and returned to him for safe keeping on the same day. Mr. Spriggins said they were the same. Mr. Boisseau thanked Mr. Spriggins for the care he had taken of the remains; also the directors of the cemetery for their Kindness 1a keeping them for ‘so long a time. anne none, THE FUNERAL PROCESSION, Thereupon Chief Fenton gave the command, “Shoul- der, arms!” The order was obeyed, and the funeral procession, which at that time only consisted of two carriages, started. It proceeded ata siow walk down Montreal avenue into Cote street, Catharine road and 80 around the mountain, police being the sole guardi- ans, as the military were far behind, never going up’ to the cometery at all. The procession drow all tho residents along the road out of their houses and the men and women followed it into Cote des Nieges, From here into the Catholic Ceme tery the road was crowded with people of all classes in @abs, carts and on foot, while the stream ot vehicles which had been going west to mect it, now doubled abont, making a Bort of lane for the small funeral to pass through. Great quict prevailed and no one showed by Took, word or deed any feeling of hostility toward the procession. About five minules after the Catholic Cemeter gates had been taken down the funerai procession entered between the gate posts. Chief Penton, Colonel La Branche, sergeants and detectives at the head and flank of tho column of police, a portion of which preceeded and the balance followed the hearse, The military did not fol- Jow closely after the police and were halted at tho vil- lage of Coto des Neiges. The crowd began gathering various avenues toward the grave, Tho police, when they arrived, formed a large square around the grave brought out of the hi looking somewhat dilapi- dated, It was borne by four men and placed in the contro of a bed of coment. CURE ROUSSELLOT’S INQUIRIES. his was being done the Rev, Cure Rot up, and, going along side of Mr. Boisseau, asked to | what depth the grave was dug. Mr, Boisseau replied that it had been dug four feet in depth, by authority of | the cometery, at the first interment of Mme, Guibord, Cure Rousselot next asked if the body had been promptly identified, Mr. Boisseau replied that it had, and that there was no mistake, The process of filling in the grave was then began and the cure went away. PUTTING THE COFVIN IN CEMENT, ‘Tho Mayor, who represented the civil arm of the law both for the city and the two municipalities, while Jude Coursol appeared on behalf of the military, was desirous of conducting the funeral with the least poxst- ble parade or ostentation, and so when he had, in com- pany with Judge Coursol, ridden on ahead of’ the pro- cession and found all quiet in the cemetery the vo he rode back, and orders wero given to the military in Cove des Niecos, while tha pra, selot came from every direction and ran with all speod wp tho | and kept the eager crowd back while the coffin was | cession proceeded.” The moment the coffin was towered | into the grave the work of »mixing the cement with | water was commencea. The workmen industrously | plied their spades and shovelled im the liquid ce. ment, which was mixed with odds and ends from (1 shops and scraps of sheet iron which, when the coment hardens, will weid the mass firmly together and prevent brittleness. COMMENTS OF SPECTATORS. | The comments of the spectators were various as the | work went on. Some thought it additional desecration of the cemetery, and hinted that 1 was one more reason why cursed Gulbord would have to come out of that; others regretted exceedingly that the sarcophagus had not been brought up, as, if not used as a casket, it might have been laid ou top of cement; others seemed to take the whole affair as a huge joke, though to many, who, with compressed lips and knitted brows, view the scene from afar, it was the reverse. As the filling- | in process continued the police grew a little less strict in holding the crowd back, and the motley assemblage speedily environed the grave, getting in the way of the workmen, compelling Mr. Reid to order them away. HOOTING BY SOME ROUGHS. Mr. Camyre, a distant relative of the deceased, said a tew words, bearing testimony to his excellent char- acter and the esteem in which he was held by those who knew him. The speaker's remarks were not received with approbation {rom a number of roughs who hooted at Mr. Camyre, Beyond this there was nothing pub- licly said on the side of the Institut Canadien. ‘The animus of the crowd collected was so unmistak- able and their threats to dig Guibord’s bones out of tho grave if occasion offered were 0 openly expressed that Mr. Boisseau determined to secure, if possible, a guard of police from the Mayor to watch the grave for at least twenty-four hours, thus giving time for the cement to,barden into solid rock, The Mayor and Judge Coursol had de- pres on seeing the burial quietly commenced, and ir. Boisseau despatehed a special messenger with a note, asking the Mayor to provide protection, or elxe he feared the grave would be opened. The Mayor promptly consented to this, and wrote out an order for asutlicient body of police’ to be sent out asa guard | until such time as they were no longer required. The | cement was tilled in over the coitin to near the suriace, then a top dressing was piled on, and Guibord was -buried at last, ACTION OF THE DISCONTENTS. { _ 4 drizzling, cold November rain beat down on the { snowy, muddy ground and on the spectators who wit | nessed’ the Closing act in the drama commenced six | years ago. When all was over Chiet Penton rode up in front of the graye and the police formed into two divisions and marched off. A crowd of about twenty- five or thirty degraded looking loafers then gathered around the grave, and one of them, in mockery, put a dead thistle stalk at the foot of it, but which was snatched off by a bystander, at whom they began to Jeer. They attempted nothing further for some time, ‘and looked rather uncomfortable, as the rain, which was then falling, had the elfect of dampening their ardor, At t, when cab containing Mr. the Boisseau woved olf they summoned resolution to emit a hiss and afew jeers, “The military, after waiting a short time a little way from the gate of the cemeter: tll the burial was completed, advanced down the road, halting at the Cote des Nieges tollgate to put drags on the gun carriages, after which they continued the march to the Champ de Mars, where they again halted, After a few minutes orders to disband were given and each battalion marched to its armory. THE WHISKEY RING. PROCEEDINGS AT THE TRIAL OF GENERAL M'DONALD YESTERDAY — IMPORTANT TESTI- MONY—-A RING OF FIVE DISTILLERS—SIXTY THOUSAND DOLLARS MADE BY ONE WITNESS— ‘WASHINGTON OFFICIALS IMPLICATED. Sr. Louis, Mo., Nov, 16, 1875. Great popular interest is being manifested in the trial of General McDonald, ex-Supervisor of Internal Rev- enue, Long before the hour for the opening of the Court all the sitting room in the Court Hous was occu- pied by spectators eager to hear the testimony for the prosecution. Shortly after Judge Treat had taken the bench and certain preliminary questions had been dis- posed of Conduce Megruo, the Cincinnati revenue agent, who organized the whiskey ring and the most impor- tant witness which the prosecution will introduce, testified that in 1871 on receiving a letter from McDon- aid telling him that he desired to see him on particular business, he came to St. Louis and received a proposi- tion from Joyce and McDonald to organize a ring with the distillers. A RING OF DISTILLERS. Megrue at once called upon five distillery firms— Bevis & Frazer, Thompson, Curran and Ulrici. The distillers were assured that the government could not harm them. Megrue collected an average of $9,000 per week from these distillers. The money was brought to him at his room. He took it to the office of Joyce’ & McDonald, where it was divided into five equal parts between Joyce, McDonald, William McKee and Collector W. T. Ford. John Leav- enworth, who was a gauger at that time, received a certain stipend every weck, which was disbursed among the gaugers and storekeepers. All these officials were necessarily involved, as the crooked whiskey could not have been removed without their consent. THREE HUNDRED DOLLARS A WEEK. William 0. Avery, Chief Clerk of the Internal Reve- nue Bureau at Washington, received at first $100 per week, but having complained at the smallness of the amount it was increased to $300. McGrue was sub- jected to a severe examination, the defence making an effort to prove that his character was disreputable. An indictment for bribery was produced against him, SIXTY THOUSAND DOLLARS MADE. He testified that he had himself realized $60,000 from the pool Itis considered that bis evidence is conclu- sive against the defendant. A number of distillers tes- tified to their participation in the frauds. They were induced to go into the Ring upon the representation that the government could not reach them, “pan’s” LETTER. One of thom, Alfred Bevis, testifled that during the existence of the Ring Joyce exhibited to him a letter from Washington signed “Bab,” which Joyce said meant General Babcock. Tho distillers kept half the government tax and put the other half into the pool, STEAMSHIP COLLISION. Gaxveston, Texas, Nov. 16, 1875, A collision occurred between the steamships Clyde and Morgan in the Lower Bay at five o’clock this after- noon. The Clyde is at ber wharf. Her bow ts torn out, but her cargo is reported to be uninjured. The Morgan was struck abaft her paddles. Her freight is reported injured, but to what extent is unknown, She anchored out near the Point. The vessels were passing each other in opposite directions at the time of the coll nm, which is supposed to have been caused by a still “norther” blowing. No lives were lost. THE BANK OF CALIFORNIA LIBEL, Saw Francisco, Nov. 15, 1875. In the Bulletin libel suit against tho Alla California, the motion of the defendant to strike out that portion of the complaint relating to the Bank of California was granted to-day. The effect of this decision is to deprive the Bulletin company of opportunity to make good their specific offer to prove the absolute truth and accuracy of roe which they had published in regard to the Bank of California and iis late President Ralston, and which was assailed by the Aléa until charged as libellous, STANLEY'S TRIUMPH. [From the Daily Graphic of yesterday.] The Royal Geographical Society of England has hand- somely recognized the intrepidty and energy of Mr. Stanley, whose African discoveries Sir Henry Raw- linson pronounced the most important of the year, and entitled Mr. Stanley to rank with the greatest ex- plorers, And it certainly was no more than a de- served tribute that he paid to the Herap, which fitted out this important expedition, and enabled the un- daunted Stanley to accomplish his great work for geo- graphical science, and he confessed that “such munifi- cence put to shame our public institutions.” Onco it was considered tho function of tho newspaper to re. | cord news, but our enterprising contemporary has carried journalism forward into a new province by creating news ‘It makes events as well as reports them. It certainly deserves congratulation upon a success that is as brilliant as its enterprise is unex- ampled in the history of journalism. THE HIGHEST COMPLIMENT. (From the Evening Mail of yesterday.) | Tho highest honors that can be paid to any explorer are those given by the Royal Geographical Society of | London, whose compliments are carefully bestowed and | peculiarly cherished. To be formally honored by such a society, as Stanley was last night, is to reach the acme of distinction attainable by such gallant aaven- tures in the cause of scionce as his, Sir Henry Rawiin- son not only delivered aeritical eulogium upon Stanicy, but paid a deserved tribute to the “extraordinary mu- nificence of the New York Heratp and the London Daily Telegraph, in fitting out Stanley's oxploring ex- pedition at their own expense,” and said, truly, that | “such munificence pute to shame our public institu: tions,” | INDIAN CABLE INTERRUPTED.

EDWIN BOOTH AS KING LEAR, Notwithstanding the unpleasant weather a fine au, dienee assembled at the Fifth Avenue Theatre last night, on the occasion of Edwin Booth’s appearance as Lear, Itis not until years after his fame bad been established and he had made nearly all of the great characters of Shakespeare his own, that Mr. Booth has seriously essayed this grand and terrible role, His Hamlet, Othello and Tago were celebrated fif- | teen yeurs ago; but Lear, next to Richard IL, is the | | latest addition to his gallery of Shakespearian portraits. It is true that he played it a long while ago, but we be- lieve that he soon abandoned it on the ground that he | was too young. and perhaps tie objection was well taken, But the tagedian is now in the prime of life, bis powers are matured, | and physical and mental development equally | fit him for the personation of this majestic character, which, we think, it is hardly within the scope of youth to appreciate or present. Age is an clement of great | importance in the character of Lear. Shakes- Peare continually brings it into the foreground, and the most pathetic appeals of the King are based upon the many years that should have been his glory, but had become his misfortune. His prayer to the heavens to make his cause their own is based upon the theory of sympathy, because they themselves are old, and all through | the play runs the pitiful refrain of “Iam a very fool- | ish, fond old map, fourscore and upward."’ To act weil as genius, % The performance last night had faults and merits; but the merit eclipsed those minor blemishes which We are astonished that Mr. Booth could assume it with such ease and carry the tragedy so high, especially when all the disadvantages which surrounded him are considered. His concep- tion of Lear is tar different from thut of al! the other actors we remember, and particularly original in tbis—that the aifection and grief of the father are made more emphatic than even the wrongs ofthe monarch. Forrest, whose Lear stood alone like a fuined tower, expressed as finely as they ever can be expressed the majesty and pride of the crownless King; but ho never touched those depths of pathos and feeling which Mr. Booth displayed, The tenderness, the noble anger, the wrath which was founded upon the fondest affection were exquisitely re- vealed by Mr. Booth. ‘The close of the first act we have never scen given with more tecling, and the famous curse was the nat- ural climax of parental anguish, not of actual hate. In the second act Mr. Booth was superb in the manner i which he revealed the alternations of tenderness, rage, astonishment and distraction which rack the mind of Lear when his daughters’ ingratitude is fully proved. The supplications by which Lear tested Regan and Goneril to the utmost were beauti- fully contrasted, and he delivered the lines I will do such things— What they are, yet | know not; but they shall be The terrors of the earth— with amazing intensity and effect. His acting rose with the play, and was greatest In the greatest. In the storm scene the madness of Lear has its climax, and there the audience felt the full sway of the power of the tragedian. The last scene of all, when Lear bends over the dead Cordelia, was touching in the extreme. The faults to which we have referred were the comparative coldness of Mr. Booth in some of the philosophical discourses which the mad monarch holds with Bigar, and a want of force in certain passages. But these may easily be corrected. The wonder is that Mr. Booth could play Lear so welt with such imperfect support. But he has created a new role, Lear must hereafter stand as one of his grandest, noblest characters, worthy to ve classed with his Hamlet and his Iago. HANS YON BULOW, The celebrated pianist, Hans Von Bilow, will make his second appearance at Chickering Hall this evening. His selections, judging from Boston experience, are calculated to show the individuality of the pianist in an eminent degree. The Henselt concerto, which Pat- tison, Gottschalk and Mason have brought into popu- larity in this city, 1s the principal piano work in the Dill. Chopin will be liberally represented in four of his smaller piano works. Liszt will be given in one of his peculiarly Hungarian transcriptions, a work of the most effective kind.

The concert company {s composed of the very best elements, The Home for Aged and Infirm Hebrews was bene. fited by an entertainment at Terrace Garden last oven- ing, at which quitea large and respectable audience assisted. Tho first part of the evening's amusement consisted of the presentation of a four-act German play, entitled “Citronen,” by members ot the Germania Theatre company. This performance, which was re- ceived with demonstrations of delight by the audience, closed about eleven o'clock and was followed by a soirée dansante. The one hundredth night of “The Mighty Dollar” at the Park Theatre, December 17, will be finely celebrated, By the direction of Mr, Florence every lady attending on that occasion will be presented with a silver medal the size of a trado dollar, elegant in design and bearing an appropriate inscription, A bronze medal, differ- ently designed, will be given to each momber of the company. The last appearance of George Belmore upon any stage is well described by the Boston Courier. The ac- count sadly sustains his own expression, after he was told that his case was hopeless, “I am conscious that I am going, and that my acting in this country bas not been real acting, bot the simulation of acting.” But all Courier says :— Fly: actor’s voice was hardly audible beyond the footlights, and the effort to make himself vocally intelligible was evidently so painful that it destroyed all the pleasure that might otherwise have been derived from his really artistic acting. His simulation of kindly old age was full of fine touches, and the biending of shrewdness and simplicity, which is the groundwork of the cbara ter, Was rendered with rare truthfulness to nature uot- | withstanding the physical infirmities under which the artist labored, ‘There was at times observable a ten- | dency to over-elaboration of business a fault common | to a certain class of English actors—as, for instance, in his manipulation of the money he received from the swindling turfmen, and in bis handling of his timepiece, but generally the performance was irce from exaggera- tion, But, oh the pity of itt There was a man, who | should have heen in hs bed, straggling to fulfil an en: | gagement and entertain an’ audience. All the heroos do not belong to the battlefield and ali of the martyrs have not been familiar with the flame and the axe. The jestor shakes his cap and bells, though sorrow may be tugging at his heartstrings, and his flashes of merri- ment may set the theatre ina roar when bis spirit is hovering amid the gloom of the gathering night, OBITUARY.
