THR BUST OF COLERIDGE, LoxpoN, May 7.—Previous to the cere mony of the unveilng of the bust of » p el minary glthenng& wi Chapter houss, sides Lord Chief Justice Coleridge and Baron Houghton, there were fresent Lord Aber- dare, Canon Farror, Robert Browning, Prof. Bluckie and the whole Coleridge family, in- cluding the grandson and grandaughter of the poet. A largo number of Americans were also in attendance, Dean Bradley and Mr, Lowell entered the Chapter house arm in arm., The dean Made a short speech in which he said he heartily sympathized with the object of the meeting. He paid & high tribute o Mr. Lowell and said that he was eminently fitted to perform the duty of unveil- iog the statute, The ceremony, he said, would add another link to the many that al- ready bound together England and America. Mr. inwoll replied that he would have pre- ferred that the task of unvelllnLthe statute had been entrusted to worthier hands, but the fact that the bnst was a gift of the late Rev, Dr, Mercer cf Rhode Island, through his ex- ecutrix, Mrs, Pell, supplied that argument of the fitness, which would otherwise have been absent, He continued; ‘All the waters of the Atlantic cannot wash out of the conscious- ness of either nation that wahold our intel- lectual property in commen. The literay traditions and the home of those who shed lustre upon our race remain an undivided inheritance, Coleridge's works are the com- panion and teacher in the happiest hours of our youth and oid age recalls those radisnt images of youth which we have lost. Surely there are no triends so constant as poets. Among them none are more faithful than Coleridge. dJuat fifty-one years ago I o possessed of a private American speech of Coleridge, and I trust I may be pardoned for the delight I took init. Coleridge was a metapbysical teacher, and an interpretor whosa services are incalculable, “This is neither the time nor the place to speak of Coleridge’s conduct to him- self, his family, or the world. He left behind him's great name. Lot those who are blameless cast the firat stone at one ‘who might have been better haa he possessed those businees facultics which make a man respectable, Ho left us such a legacy ss on' geniue, and a genius not always, can leave.” Tord Coleridge returned on behalf of the family. The assemblage then went to the poets’ corner and Mr. Lowall unveiled the statue, which bears the simple" inscription, ‘“Samuel Tyler Coleridge.” ————— AN INCREDULOUS JUSTICE, HE HOLDS THE BT, I;VIH MEDIUMS, THR MILLERS, FOR TRIAL, 8. Louts, Mo., May 6 —[Ohicago Tribune Special.]-The examination of the Millers, the alleged spiritualistic mediume, was con- cluded to-day and the defendants were held for the grand jury in the sum of 1,000 each. The c:urt held that the prosecuting witnesses and others had parted with their money upon faith in the statements made by the defendants, The court did not believe that something could be created out of nothiog and would not have to follow the heaten path of fact as developed by scientists and others who held that the witnesses of the asserted phenomera were victims of delusion, illusion and morbid faculties, The medium waa caught outside the cabinet in a fraudulent representation when it was supposed she was in the cabinet. The evidencs regarding the phaao of spiritualism called *‘yersonation” could not bs admitted, asit was the mere conclusion of witneeses. He would hold the defendants under the action relatiag to tricks and confidence games, ‘1he decinion caused great surprise. A bond was furnished. e R A LEGACOY OF DOUGLAS, HEIRS OF THE LITILE GIANT SERK TO MAINTAIN HIS WWILL, Caicaco, 1L, May 7.—The heirsof Stephen A. Douglas began suit to-day in the superior court askiug that the Chicago university property be transferred from the present hold- ers to them, ‘The property is advertised for sale next Saturday to satisfy a judge- ment of $310,000 secured by mortgages and there appears to be a prospect that the university trustees will not be able to keep it from going into other bands, and possibly into hands that will devote it to other than educational uses, This is the principal ground of the petitioners, Th%vue Stephen A. Douglass, jr , and Mrs J. Williams, formerly the widow of the late Senator Douglass, § The bill sets forth that on Novemrer 10, 1+56, S ephen A. Douglas deeded ten acres of land to the trustees to be devoted to educa- tional purposes; that in this deed it was stipulated that there must be no sale or alien- ation of the property and that it way intended by ~ Mr. Douglass that only educational interests should be ben- efitted by his gift. On_the ground that the rmpeny. seems now likely to be diverted rom this use, the petitioners urge that in default of carrying out Stephen A. Douglas’ wishes in regard to the same that the property rightfully belongs to them. It is thought that the filing of this bill will make business men charey of investing upon the occasion of the sale. ANGLO-RUSSIA, RIDGBWAY TO SUCCEED LUMSDEN. LoxpoN, May 6.- Edmund Fitzmaurice stated this afternoon in the house of com- mons that Gen. Ridgeway, with Captain Yates and others, would remain in charge of the Afghan boundary commission, now that Lun.sden was comiog hume, ‘‘ The instruc- ticns sent Lumsden,” continued Fitzo aurice, **do not cancel his appointment. He has not been summoned home to advise the govern- ment abont the frontier. The boundary com- mission’s escort will remain with Ridgeway, who will carry on the work of the commission on the spot.” ENGLAND'S REASONS FOR PEACR. Granville, in the house of lords, replying to a motion by the oppostion for the production by the government of the papers in the Rus- sian controversy, used the following langusge: T do not believe th: Eogland was going to wage war with Russia we should wage it at a discdvantage, and with every advantsge in favor of Ruesia.” Granville denied that the government’s military policy had been & failure, and denied also that Russia would go to Herat. The motion for the preduction of papers was then withdrawn, KOMAROFF'S FULL REPORT, St. PeTEREBURG, May 7,—Col.

DUFFERIN SAID TO HAYE RESIGNED, LoNDoN, May 8,-~The Morning Post as- sorts that Eirl Dufferin has revigned as viceroy of India in consequence of the disas- trous effect upon the British prestige in India of Gladstone’s weak and timorous policy. The Daily News, the governmeat organ, says it is able to state ¢t Eurl Dufferin warmly approves the settlement made by England and Russia, as will appear from the papers which are about to be gon the table in parliament, THE REPUBLIQUE'S OPINION, Paris, May 7.—The Republique Francaise, ccmmenting on the special advices regarding —— THE ISTHMUS' TROUBLES, REYRS HANGS THE FIRE-BUGS.

A court martial was then held, and the rebellious conspirators sentenced to death, No_delay occurred in executing the sentence In the afternoon the condemned men were taken to the mid- dle of the ruins which they were instiumental in making, and hanged in the presence of & thousand persons, who had assembled to wit- ness the enforcement of law, The place selectea by Gen, Reyes was the exact spot where the rebels started the fire on March 31, and which destroyed nearly every building in thecity.
