We heard a story lately which inter- ested us gjatly , as a striking instance of "taking the bull by the horns." As tbe conseqaence of an unfortunate specula- tion, a family suddenly reduced from affluence to penury. The blow was a terrible one, and for a brief period the Whole family seemed paralyzed: bnt it was the noble-hearte- d wife who first roused herself, and bravely prepared to act with decision. The only pittance which remained was less than a hundred a year,and this sfor people who had been accustomed to horses and carriages, and to fare sumptuously every day, and with seven children to feed and to clothe t Of coarse, the father looked out for employ- ment which in some measure reestablish his position; but fortunes are not re there granted a subsidy of $150,000 yearly fbr a line of steamers between Papite and San Francisco.

Detective Finnegas went to Los Angeles on intelligence from the chief of police of that city, that he had arrested a man for passing counterfeit five dollar pieces. On questioning the prisoner Fin- negas got a clue to the place in tbe mount- ains where the manufacture of epurions coins was carried on, and in DaJton cau-yo- n, Sierra Madre range, was found a deserted camp, a lot of counterfeiting tools and material and papers. Emer, Mat- lock and William Lewis, were arrested and held on $2000 and $3000 bonds re- spectively.

The split in the cabinet threatens to produce a minis- terial crisis owing to differences between the prime minister and the minister of the interior.

London, Dec 1 The Queen is reported as suffering from a severe bilious attack, and although the court physicians seem to attach but little importauce to this illness, many persons are inclined to look upon her Majesty's sickness in a more serious light. The Queen is now 60 years of age and has always enjoyed exception- ally good health, but has a constitution liable to break down suddenly under forms of illness to which she may now be considered subject. Considerable solici- tude is publicly expressed over the matter both for personal reasons and in view of the political effect which might attend her possible demise at the present time. Whnt eeipt.

The bureau of the left agreed upon the following points as tbe main part of their political programme: Liberty of meeting and lawful associations liberty of the press and gratuitous secular compulsory education. The parliamentary situation appears less strained. MM. Spuller, Brisson and Floquet de- clare they would not accept portfolios in a new ministry. It is believed that when Baudry Dasson interpellates the government on Tuesday, the government will make declarations which will lead to a vote of confidence and end in a crisis by consolidating the ministry. ' French Potties. The resolutions of the republicans to submit a programme to ministers for their acceptance is generally considered as a friendly notice to quit. Waddington, president of the council and minister of foreign affairs will be out of office in the early part of next year, and perhaps sooner, and Gambetta, pres ident of the chamber of deputies, will then have an opportunity of inaugurating a parliamentary government under a republican regime. At the third sitting of bureaux of groups of the left on Sunday, the following points on which the cabinet will be questioned, were settled, namely : the modification of tbe principal of judicial immovability; the transfer of the gen d'armierie from the war ministry to that of the interior, and the immediate dismissal of reactionary functionaries. -- A Vote Demanded. Paris, Dec 3. Tbe papers announce that at yesterday's cabinet council it was resolved to immediately demand a vote of confidence from the chamber of depu- ties. The F.ench C'rl.ta. London, Dec 3. A correspondent at Paris, discussing the statement of the Journal det Debate that the ministry can- not possibly entertain the ssbeme of the programme for their acceptance, says this is the only possible course open for the cabinet after the unexpected attitude as- sumed by the majority. Nobody will be able to comprehend bow the minority, so Trinity, in the Minories, London. T weight of evidence seems to show t this grizly relic is the head of II Grey. Duke of Suffolk. ili rr beautiful, learned ; and virtciors I Jane Grey, the wife of Lord 'Jr.... Dodley. The Duke of Suffolk, v ' his hapless daughter wm in the 1 awaiting the pleasure of the stern 1 whose throne the poor girl Ls i l ' few days reluctantly usurped, joir- - i ; rebellion fomented by L;i Jt Watt, and, being subsequently cap-- . : was brought to London, tried, and beheaded on Tower Hill. A v posse or antiquaries ' have natj: rushed into print oa the "nce!i relic" question .and are charactf-rist- at loggerheads over the Duke t Suffolk's skuU. One gentleman st mines that the head may belong to 1 . noble house of Dartmouth; but snotL learned pundit points out that, in t sixteenth century, the Lepge tarn -- were settled in Ireland, and, ia 15&4,had hardly attained sufficient social rank to entitle them to be beheaded when it oc- curred to them to commit the crime of high treason. Thus it may be borne ia mind, says the Daily Tdegraph,i.uX the various degrees of butcherly etiqnff a were scrupulously observed in the executions which followed Wyatt's revolt The Duke of Suffolk was decari- - tated, but Sir Thomas was hange4, drawn and quartered at Tybura; whereas the traitors of the meaner sort were merely hanged and mutilated at the top of the acclivity called Hay HiL , Berkeley square. On the other hand it has been contended that the property in the head lies either in the Duke of - Buckingham and C bandog or in the ear of Stamford and Warrington, while an- other enthusiastic amateur of ghastly sight proposes that the ugly thing should be placed in a glass case for ex- - in union in uie national l'orrrait Gallery. At all events, it seems expedi ent that something definitive should be done with the head, and that speedily. For many years, it is Btsted, the sexton or the clerk at the Church of the Holy Trinity has been in the habit of exhibit ing the potential head of Henry Grey, Duke of Suffolk, to curious parishioners. It has been kept in a box, and from con- - tinuous handling much of the hair and beard have been worn away. At present it is understood that the church in tii Minories will, ere long, "be demolished to make way for a further extension of the Metropolitan railway. - In view of this contingency, it would certainly be advisable ta find an asylum for the head, and at least one proposal marked by common sense has been made, to the effect that the "relic" should find decent interment in the church of St Peter ad Veticula, on the Tower green. If any lineal descendenta of the Duke survive, and care to rescue the memory of their ancestor from oblivion, it is quite open for them to seek the permission of Her Majesty to place a suitable inscription on the tablet over the niche where the head found final sepulture. Othervuie there is really no great reason why the present generation should trouble itself about the cranium of this decapitated Duke. There are several heads now lying in museums. The Prepaganda uy Rome have, or had, or should have, i head of Father Gsraett the English Provincial of ths Jew-ait- , tha was judicially buteheredijs' St Paul's churchyard for beiujPFrvy to the gun- powder plot '- The head of Fisher, bishop of Rochester, who was decapitated in the reign of Henry VTH., has found its way, oddly enough, to the Ambrosial library at Milan, there is also, not the head, but the heart of Lucrezia Borgia, the celebrated and much maligned con- sort of Alfonso d'Este, Duke of Ferrara. The bead of Liord Chancellor fcur T nomas Moore was begged by bis devoted daugh- ter, Margaret Roper. The relic was ' kept by her many years in a leaden casket, and waa at length buried with her in her tomb at Canterbury. .Finally, the head of Lieutenant-Colone- l Francis Towuley, a member of an ancient Lan cashire lamiiy wno commanaea u famous "Manchester regiment" ia the rebellion of 1845-6-, and who was execut ed on Kensington Common, together with the "Jemmy" Dawson immortal Lzsd bv Shenstone. and other gallant Jacobite gentlemen, was, in one time, to be seen under a glass case in the drawing-- room of a London house, the resi- - dence of a lineal deecendeut of the ill- - fated Colonel. This highly interesting head has quite recently, we believe.been reverently interred. The respectful ex- ample should be followed in the case of . the Lead of the Duke of Suffolk. People's heads were not intended to be made peepshows of, and there is vet an- other and very pleasing reason why the head of Henry Grey should disappear as swiftly as possible from public ken. That truly alarming portend, the head of Oliver Cromwell, exhibits fearful symptoms of coming to the front Al- ready a lugubrious trumpet has been blown in public, and an "anthentio pedigree" has been claimed for a head which somebody has got somewhere, and which be solemnly declares to be lie skull of ths great protector. In the way of a controversy touching Oliver Crom- well's head madness lies. The Gift's Chests Banished by ths reigning king, the Gd was leaving his domain of Bivar, accom- panied by eUty knights, but ths sinews of war being absent, the Cid took'asida his nephew, Martin Anthonez, and sent him to Burgos to fetch two Jews, Rachel and Bidos. These were ordinary receivers of the Cid's spoil on his return from cam- paigning. Coming to his camp, these two, Rachel and Bidos, were hopeful of a bargain, so tbe Cid showed thm two enormous iron-bou- nd oaken chests, full to the brim of sand and stones. The sur face bad a mm layer ot coui ana jeweis. lie told the Jews that he eould not carry away with him this rish and heavy treas- ure, and bagged them to advance on tbe security of tbe two chests enough money to meet his present wants, adding that if they were set paid at the end of the year they might sell them. The money lent was 300 marks ia gold and 3tf0 ia silver. Duly the gross fraud was d iscovC ed. If I am not mistaken, the Cid givf s coior to the poem on hint regarding this event, and finally, after his capture cf Valentin, he ordered the two Jews to be properly paid, saying that in the chest ttiere was not only sand, but his 'golden - word of honor.- Ivl Burros the Cid pravalls.

After the arrival or emperor last night, whilst a second train containing baggage was on the way hither, an explosion occurred. One baggage van was blown to pieces and seven carriages were thrown off the rails, but nobody was injured. The explosives which destroyed the imperial baggage train are stated to have been placed on Monday evening un- der tbe rails at a point which tbe imper ial train would pass just before entering the Moscow railway station. The czar arrived safely, however, at 11 Monday night, and the explosion occurred on the passage of the baggage tram naif an nour afterwards.

Some persons who were standing on tbe embankment as thejbaggage train passed, immaginging that that it was tbe czar's train cheered as it passed, which was the signal for exploding tbe mine. ' There iwas mucn rejoicing over tne czar's escape. The city is decorated with Moscow. Dec 3. To-da- y a deputation proceeded to Kremlin to congratulate his Majesty upon his visit to Moscow. Pre vious to tbe tmperor s arrival in tne nan of the audience, the lord marshal gave the deputations news of the catastrophe of the previous evening. His hearers ap peared ror a moment inundersirock, but immediatdly afterwards broke into loud cheers at the Emperor's escape. The Em - peror appeared in St George's Hall at noon and was presented by tbe munici- pal authorities with bread and salt when he spoke as follows:; "Qentlemm : I am very glad to see you again, remem bering the loyal attachment which yon evinced on the occasion of the sad event of April 14th. Similar assurances then reached me from all parts. You are al- ready acquainted with the events of yes- terday. God has preserved me as well as those traveling with me, and I am anx- ious only for the welfare of Russia, I have placed myself in the hands of Provi dence, but sedition must be extirpated. I appeal therefore to all right minded peo ple to aid me in the eradication of this evil which has taken root in Russia. I address mvselfto parents and urge them to conduct their children in the paths of truth and righteousness, in order that they may become, not miscreants, but useful men and good citizens." Th S ssassiB Plana. Moscow, Dec 3. A person who was in the baggage train at the time of the ex- plosion, says that a baggage train of 14 carriages and two locomotives was dis- patched half an hour before the train carrying the Emperor, but by a fortunate chance the czar's train overtook the bag- gage train, passed and left it some dis- tance behind. The explosion attracted the police and a crowd of people, who were loud in their expressions of horror. Telegraphic communication was inter rupted ror a while, owing to tbe posts having been blown down by the explo sion' Two railway omdials, who were in tbe immediate vicinity, were badly in jured. Tbe perpetrators doubtless thought ' tne czar was in the second train. The public prosecutor and magistrate soon arrived. - A letter was found in the court yard of an empty house. Concealed under the snow a wire, connected with a battery in an outhouse, from which passing trains could easily be seen, was found.. The house was bought in September by a yonug maa who w s observed digging in his cellar bv bis neighbors but disarmed suspicion by de claring that bis reason for doing it was to obtain sand, rrom this cellar was dug a passage in which a train of powder was laid connecting with a mine nnder the railway. More wires were found be hind the wall paper. It 14 supposed that several persons were engaged in tbe work. St. , Petersbcg, Dec 3. The official account of the attempt to destroy the im perial tram on Monday night states that the explosion occurred as the baggage train was entering the Rogoeh quarter of Moscow. Tbe train was turown off the rails, aud one baggage van and two pas senger carriages thrown right across the line. The explosion caused a gap in tbe permanent roadway four feet and eight inches deep, 16 feet long and 18 teet oroaa. London. Dec 4. The attempt on the life of the czar created a great consterna tion and indignation in London, Pans, Berlin and Vienna. Emperor William sent atelezram to the czar congratulating him that the attempt to take nis u:e was irursrated. The Reward Offered fur the Capture of uarrison. When William Lloyd Garrison died. It was staieu roam price naa been put upon his head by the State of Georgia. Having been written to for tbe facts, Governer Colquitt stated that, "after diligent re- search into the records of the past history of Georgia, and inauirv among thorn who should have some knowledge of the fact or this reward, u such was ever offered, I can say there is absolutely no trace of anv such thing. I firmly believe the whole thing an utterly unfounded slander on the State." But journalism is more active than the Executive, and the Atlanta n, searching diligently through the journals of the House and Senate, comes upon tbe record ot l&ii, wherein it ap- pears that Mr. Nesbitt, a Senator, laid the following upon the table. November 26th: Retotved, By the Senate and House of Representatives or the state or Georgia, in general assembly met, that tbe sum of - thousand dollars be, and tbe same is hereby appropriated to be paid to any person or persons who shall arrest and bring to trial, under the laws of this State, the editor and publisher of a certain pa- per called The Liberator, published in tbe town of Boston, and State of Massachu- setts, or who shall arrest and bring to trial, under the laws of this State, any other person or persons who shall utter, publish or circulate within the limits of this State, said paper, called The Liberator, or any other paper, circular or, pamphlet, letter or address of a seditious character; and that his Excellency the Governor is hereby authorized and requested to issue bis warrant upon the Treasury fbr the sum of dollars in favor of any person or persons who shall have arrested and brought to trial, under the laws of this State, tbe editor and publisher of The Liberator.

Ckico, Dec 0. The Record of this after- noon has tbe following particulars of the capture of one of the Mendocino outlaws and the killing of another : Sheriff Moore of Mendecino county, left Chico a few days ago in company with Mr. Stanley and a few others, determined to make another attempt at the capture of the Mendocino outlaws. From information obtained, they had every reason to be- lieve that they were secreted in Butte ceeek canyon in the neighborhood of Kimshew, and yesterday morning about daylight they came upon them in an old cabin between Nimshew and Big Butte creek. The cabin is surrounded by brush. except a utile clearance in irons, 'l wo of the men were in the cabin and one was engaged in chopping wood outside on the approach oi tne snerin and bis party. They were called upon to surrender and the guns of the party was leveled at them. so that it was thought that their capture was certain. Seeing that it was impossi- ble to get to their guns, the murderers immediately oroke for tbe (hick brush near at hand. A volley was fired after them and Billings fell mortally wounded. lirown and Gauuts made thoir escape by running in opposite directions, followed by a posse oi tne snerin l party. Gauatz made bis way mrougnthe brush to wards Aitnshew and took refuge in an old cabin near the mairn road leading to town, arriving ahead of Sheriff Moore, who was returning to Chico with the body of Billings.

T Trial t Kajor Reno at Fast Meade. Dbaowood, Dec 4. The Seno ' court martial which has been sitting at Fort Meade since Saturday last, has examined about fifteen witnesses, all of whose test imony was favorable to Reno, in that, while admitting his inebriety, he showed no particular malice towards Lieutenant Nicholson with whom he had an alterca- tion in the officers club room on October 25th. That night Reno was under the influence of liquor. He struck Nicholson on the arm with a billiard due, breaking the cue and Nicholson threw him on tie floor. Nicholson provoked tbe assault by saying he could whip Reno. This was tne extent oi tne trouble that mgnt. Un August 8tb, Reno, while in the club room, knocked out two lights of glass. Federal officers testified that they had seen many worse things happen in tbe club room on different occasions. Post Trader Fanshaw testified that Reno and several took supper at his house on August 3d, and the accused was slightly under the influence of liquor, but did not insult Fanshaw or wife. To-d-ay Miss Ella Stureis. daughter of the post commander, testified that on the mgnt or November mtb, while sitting in the library, she was statled by hearing some one tapping on the window, and going there to see who it was her eyes met Reno's, wmcu irigbtenea ner nearly to death. She saw Reno only a few sec onds. My first impression was that he would shoot me if I moved. I thought he had hard feelings towards father. Reno's face was pale and looked desper ate.

The police commissioners this morning chose ex Chief Patrick Crowley chief of police. The appointment seems to give satisfaction about tne City Jdall. " Dividend. Belle Isle declares a dividend of 25 cents.' Settled st Last. Bah Fbamcisco, Dec 3. The arguments on the question of whether the old or the new city officials have a right to their seats between tbe present date and tbe first Monday in January were continued betore the supreme court torn morning: After recoss this afternoon Judge Wallace said that the decision of the lower courts, which gives tbe offices to the Dew offi- cers, was affirmed, and that the decision would be filed or the following day. This decision places the new officers in their positions from 12 o'clock yesterday. Then was a general feeling of relief around the new City Hall when the news was telephoned that the su- preme court had decided in favor of the incoming officials. In anticipationlof the decision all tbe old officers located at the City Hall affected by the decision were prepared to take leave of their offices, and had their records and books in a condition to be examined, so that nothing was really left to do but to make the formal transfer. In the treasurer's office the money will have to be counted, which made xa a aay or a year; and his wife, delicately reared and accustomed to a large establishment, resolved as a step to discharge every one of the servants. "We have health and we have hands," she said,; or at any rate nsed words to that effect speaking to her children. "We most work; and what we do not know how to do we most learn." Of course, the first tiling was to remove to a small house, one only just roomy enough to contain its several inmates. But not even a "general servant'' accompanied them. A frugal system of diet was adopted, in which we believe oatmeal played a considerable part, and every purchase was made in the cheapest mar- ket This rare lady - had a horror- - of pauperism, thosgh she had not the un- grateful pride which would have made her decline all help offered to her children.. They were taught to keep themselves in more ways than one; and when the darkest days were over, and the "silver lining" of the cloud began to show, there is a good reason to believe that she felt more of the good that had been bidden in the trouble. After all, the time waa not so sad as it seemed. We may be pretty sure that it sifted friends in a wonderful manner ,and that it was found that the true and loyal were to bs met within all classes. Some acquaintances, of course, dropped off; bnt it is doubtful if adversity tests friendship more that does prosperity. The rich and happy are much envied, and sometimes slandered; but the best feelings of the best people are generally-draw- towards those in trouble. We fancy, too, that the brave lady of whom we are writing did not allow herself to be ashamed of her poverty. If people whom she had visited in other days on equal terms drove up to her little parlor without any lachrymose manner; though, perhaps, if very busy starching or iron-lt- g, she kept them waitings few minutes, making dne and truthful apology for do- ing so, under these circumstances, it is very likely that her hand, though rough and hard from household work, was pressed with more than - usual warmth' by delicately gloved fingers. Now, if that wife had been content to sit bemoaning her helplessness and misfor- tune, while appealing right and left for aid, what an inferior position would she now be in, not only in reference to worldly affairs, bnt m regard to the es- timation ' ef her rlaracter. Besides, energy is very conitgious, and hers must not only have cheered her husband in his trouble, but most have been communi- cated to her children. The constant occupation, too, was the very best thing for them all; it left no time for mere fretting; and, probably, natural fatigue from physical exertion ' prevented anxious thought from keeping them awake at night. No doubt our heroine was very glad when - brighter davv dawnei again, and she could return to more-congeni- occupations than sweep- ing rooms and lighting fires, but we be- lieve she would do just the same as be- fore should the same terrible occasion re- occur. ChambeT'eJaurmal. The suffering Saltan. The Constantinople correspondent of the Manchester Guardian, writing on the 24th of September, give's a gloomy account of the state of affairs on the He says: The supposed attempt to assassinate the snltan has m&da a deeo imnreasion. and Abdul Hamid is now brooding over the stormy scenes and violent events which had rendered possible his advance- ment to the throne. Uarlv rumors are floating about as to mental derangement and wild measures being instituted to give a fancied increase of security to the Enlace of Yildiz, and though it would be safe upon such grounds to assert that tbe present enltan was going tne way of his predesessor, it is certain that the unfortunate monarch at the present moment is suffering from great nervous depression, and can hardly be brought to pay the necessary , attention to public affairs. While gloom and distrust reign at the palace, anger and despair have en- tered every Turkish household at Con stantinople. Discontent is hardly the term for the feeling with which the present state of affairs is viewed by the people in general; for the language of individuals when they find themselves free to express their thoughts is disloyal in the extreme. How can it be otherwise when, aftet months of patient waiting, they find matters going from bad to worse; and the promised amelioration as far off as ever? The last Bairam has been anything but a season of joy; for the straggle to keep the wolf from the door has left nothing for feasting. For the first time within the memory of any one at Constantinople, perhaps in the history of the Turks since they first be- gan to form a nation, the troops did not receive a month s pay either in Kamazan or Bairam. Only the officers received half a month's pay, and even this relief was not extended to all, while the rations upon which these families depend for food nave been railing into arrear. The people are cowed, and among themselves hardly venture to air their grievances for fear of the secret police. I have heard lately of one officer who ventured to present a petition to the Saltan having mystenonsiy disappeared. Jits unily have sought for tidings of him in -- nun, and the supposition is that be is aaw on his way to some distant place of exile for having spoken too plainly of the distress among the poorer officers, tulortu' nately for the people, the scarcity of money, and the distress it occasions, is not brought home to the ministers and the heads of departments. Ihey always manage to secure their largo salaries whether debts remain unpaid. - No steps nave yet been takes for the reorganiza tion of the police and gendarmie. or the redaction of the army and navy..

FOREIGHV Th Brilliant and Koral Wedding. Madrid, Nov. 29. Tbe weather had improved in the morning to such a degree that as early as 7 o'clock the streets and balconies were thronged with people and much animation prevailed. Many houses had been decorated and triumphal arches are erected at various points. Everybody is speaking of the marriage of King Al- fonso and Archduchess Maria Christine, which would take place in the afternoon. In the morning the bands of the regi- ments quartered in the city played a re- veille before tbe Royal Palace and after- wards marched through the principal streets. The royal wedding was solemn- ized at Atochi church according to the programme. The bride left the Pardo Palace in the morning for the ministry of marine, where apartments had been prepared for her, in which she was robed for tbe marriage. King Alfonso left the Royal Palace for Atochi church shortly before 11 o'clock. He was accompanied by Archduke Renier, and was preceded by eleven carriages, containing his mother, Isabella, the Princess orAustnrias and other members of the royal family, grandees of Spain and court dignataries. The bride approached tbe church by another route. She was ac- companied by her mother and was prece- ded by four carriages containing ladies of bonor and court dignataries. Tbe bride was ricblv dressed in white and wore a diadem of brilliants and . insignia of the Marie Louise order. Troops lined the streets through which tbe procession moved. Tbe Atocnt churcn was splen didly iUumidated and decorated with silken draperies. Tbe diplomatic bodies and bponisn g andees and a deputation from the senate and chamber of deputies received the King at tbe church and occupied tbe nave. The bride was much moved during the ceremony. The bene diction was given in behalf of the, Pope by Cardinal Patriarch,-o- f Indus, who officiated at the nuptial mass. APraetieal Wonui'i ntlghts.

Kesolutinns moved by Parnell and carried with en- thusiasm, are to the effect that the arrests are arbitra-- y, unconstitutional and calcu- lated to weaken the confidence of the people of Ireland in the impartiality of the law, and that the government which squanders the blood and treasure of the people iu uniust wars abroad, while mis ery and famine are unrelieved at home, stands condemned iu the eyes of all right minded and thoughtful men. rinnegan, obstructionist member of parliament for Ennis, spoke strongly in denunciation of the government There was no disturbance- - The authorities had taken precautions.

LMTfs sad Tamnlteas Meeting. London, Nov. 30. The gathering in Hyde Park y in response to a call for organised demonstration in favor of the Irish agitators, consisted of an im- mense mob. A fair sprinkling of green favors was observable, but by far the greater number of persons present seemed to be attracted more by curiosity than sympathy.. A goodly number of bands of music enlivened the march from Trafal and many banners were dis played, but not all or these belonged to the home rule associations. The proces- sion was swollen by the Tichborne re- lease association, the democratic work-ingme- n's club, and similar bodies, not in any manner connected with Ireland or Irish agitation. Tbe orators of these out- side associations addressed separate groups, while the mam meeting was in progress m the park. One of the princi- pal speakers of Irish sympathy meeting proper was Wm. Archer Redmond, borne rule member for Wexford. Tbe speakers were surrounded by a dense throng which cheered so enthusiastically as to render the speeches utterly inaudible, except perhaps to those on the stand. The resolutions protesting against the recent arrest of Irish agitators and de nouncing present proprietary in Ireland were carried by acclamation. The less noted speakers, particularity at side meetings, used most seditious lamrnace' and their utterances seemed to create ranch amusement. The authorities had apparently taken no preparations what ever ior order, aa only three policemen were in the vicinity of : the meeting.

as suffering from a severe bilious attack,and although the court physicians seemto attach but little importauce to thisillness, many persons are inclined to lookupon her Majesty's sickness in a moreserious light. The Queen is now 60 yearsof age and has always enjoyed exception-ally good health, but has a constitutionliable to break down suddenly underforms of illness to which she may now beconsidered subject. Considerable solici-tude is publicly expressed over the matterboth for personal reasons and in view ofthe political effect which might attendher possible demise at the present time.

Trinity, in the Minories, London. Tweight of evidence seems to show tthis grizly relic is the head of IIGrey. Duke of Suffolk. ili rrbeautiful, learned ; and virtciors IJane Grey, the wife of Lord 'Jr....Dodley. The Duke of Suffolk, v '

his hapless daughter wm in the 1awaiting the pleasure of the stern 1

whose throne the poor girl Ls i l 'few days reluctantly usurped, joir- - i ;rebellion fomented by L;i JtWatt, and, being subsequently cap--

. :was brought to London, tried,and beheaded on Tower Hill. A vposse or antiquaries

' have natj:rushed into print oa the "nce!irelic" question .and are charactf-rist-at loggerheads over the Duke tSuffolk's skuU. One gentleman stmines that the head may belong to 1 .noble house of Dartmouth; but snotLlearned pundit points out that, in tsixteenth century, the Lepge tarn --

were settled in Ireland, and, ia 15&4,hadhardly attained sufficient social rank toentitle them to be beheaded when it oc-curred to them to commit the crime ofhigh treason. Thus it may be borne iamind, says the Daily Tdegraph,i.uX thevarious degrees of butcherly etiqnff awere scrupulously observed in theexecutions which followed Wyatt'srevolt The Duke of Suffolk was decari- -tated, but Sir Thomas was hange4,drawn and quartered at Tybura;whereas the traitors of the meaner sortwere merely hanged and mutilated atthe top of the acclivity called Hay HiL ,Berkeley square. On the other hand ithas been contended that the property inthe head lies either in the Duke of -

Buckingham and Cbandog or in the earof Stamford and Warrington, while an-other enthusiastic amateur of ghastlysight proposes that the ugly thingshould be placed in a glass case for ex- -

inunion in uie national l'orrraitGallery. At all events, it seems expedient that something definitive should bedone with the head, and that speedily.For many years, it is Btsted, the sextonor the clerk at the Church of the HolyTrinity has been in the habit of exhibiting the potential head of Henry Grey,Duke of Suffolk, to curious parishioners.It has been kept in a box, and from con- -tinuous handling much of the hair andbeard have been worn away. At presentit is understood that the church in tiiMinories will, ere long, "be demolishedto make way for a further extension ofthe Metropolitan railway. - In view ofthis contingency, it would certainly beadvisable ta find an asylum for the head,and at least one proposal marked bycommon sense has been made, to theeffect that the "relic" should find decentinterment in the church of St Peter adVeticula, on the Tower green. If anylineal descendenta of the Duke survive,and care to rescue the memory of theirancestor from oblivion, it is quite openfor them to seek the permission of HerMajesty to place a suitable inscriptionon the tablet over the niche where thehead found final sepulture. Othervuiethere is really no great reason why thepresent generation should trouble itselfabout the cranium of this decapitatedDuke. There are several heads nowlying in museums. The Prepaganda uyRome have, or had, or should have, ihead of Father Gsraett theEnglish Provincial of ths Jew-ait- , thawas judicially buteheredijs' St Paul'schurchyard for beiujPFrvy to the gun-powder plot '- The head of Fisher,bishop of Rochester, who was decapitatedin the reign of Henry VTH., has foundits way, oddly enough, to the Ambrosiallibrary at Milan, there is also, not thehead, but the heart of Lucrezia Borgia,the celebrated and much maligned con-sort of Alfonso d'Este, Duke of Ferrara.The bead of Liord Chancellor fcur T nomasMoore was begged by bis devoted daugh-ter, Margaret Roper. The relic was '

kept by her many years in a leadencasket, and waa at length buried withher in her tomb at Canterbury. .Finally,the head of Lieutenant-Colone- l FrancisTowuley, a member of an ancient Lancashire lamiiy wno commanaea ufamous "Manchester regiment" ia therebellion of 1845-6-, and who was executed on Kensington Common, togetherwith the "Jemmy" Dawson immortal Lzsdbv Shenstone. and other gallantJacobite gentlemen, was, in one time, tobe seen under a glass case in the drawing--

room of a London house, the resi- -

dence of a lineal deecendeut of the ill--fated Colonel. This highly interestinghead has quite recently, we believe.beenreverently interred. The respectful ex-

ample should be followed in the case of .

the Lead of the Duke of Suffolk.People's heads were not intended to bemade peepshows of, and there is vet an-

other and very pleasing reason why thehead of Henry Grey should disappear asswiftly as possible from public ken.That truly alarming portend, the head ofOliver Cromwell, exhibits fearfulsymptoms of coming to the front Al-

ready a lugubrious trumpet has beenblown in public, and an "anthentiopedigree" has been claimed for a headwhich somebody has got somewhere, andwhich be solemnly declares to be lieskull of ths great protector. In the wayof a controversy touching Oliver Crom-

well's head madness lies.

The Gift's Chests

Banished by ths reigning king, the Gdwas leaving his domain of Bivar, accom-

panied by eUty knights, but ths sinewsof war being absent, the Cid took'asidahis nephew, Martin Anthonez, and senthim to Burgos to fetch two Jews, Racheland Bidos. These were ordinary receiversof the Cid's spoil on his return from cam-

paigning. Coming to his camp, thesetwo, Rachel and Bidos, were hopeful of abargain, so tbe Cid showed thm twoenormous iron-bou- nd oaken chests, fullto the brim of sand and stones. The surface bad a mm layer ot coui ana jeweis.lie told the Jews that he eould not carryaway with him this rish and heavy treas-ure, and bagged them to advance on tbesecurity of tbe two chests enough moneyto meet his present wants, adding that ifthey were set paid at the end of the yearthey might sell them. The money lentwas 300 marks ia gold and 3tf0 ia silver.Duly the gross fraud was d iscovC ed. If Iam not mistaken, the Cid givf s coior tothe poem on hint regarding this event,and finally, after his capture cf Valentin,he ordered the two Jews to be properlypaid, saying that in the chest ttiere wasnot only sand, but his 'golden - word ofhonor.-

that aa attempt was made upon the lifeof the czar while on bis way to Moscow,but no authentic details of tbe affair cavebeen received.- Moscow. Dec. 4. After the arrival or

emperor last night, whilst a second traincontaining baggage was on the way hither,an explosion occurred. One baggage vanwas blown to pieces and seven carriageswere thrown off the rails, but nobody wasinjured. The explosives which destroyedthe imperial baggage train are stated tohave been placed on Monday evening un-der tbe rails at a point which tbe imperial train would pass just before enteringthe Moscow railway station. The czararrived safely, however, at 11 Mondaynight, and the explosion occurred on thepassage of the baggage tram naif an nourafterwards. Search is being made for theperpetrators of the outrage- - The czarwill arrive in St. retersourg

London. Dec 3. A St Petersburg dis--natch savs the tunnel containingthe powder traiu ran 150 feet from a house under-neath tbe permanent roadway The firstspan of the tunnel was built of stone.Some persons who were standing on tbeembankment as thejbaggage train passed,immaginging that that it was tbe czar'strain cheered as it passed, which was thesignal for exploding tbe mine. '

There iwas mucn rejoicing over tneczar's escape. The city is decorated with

Moscow. Dec 3. To-da- y a deputationproceeded to Kremlin to congratulate hisMajesty upon his visit to Moscow. Previous to tbe tmperor s arrival in tne nanof the audience, the lord marshal gavethe deputations news of the catastropheof the previous evening. His hearers appeared ror a moment inundersirock, butimmediatdly afterwards broke into loudcheers at the Emperor's escape. The Em -

peror appeared in St George's Hall atnoon and was presented by tbe munici-pal authorities with bread and saltwhen he spoke as follows:; "Qentlemm :I am very glad to see you again, remembering the loyal attachment which yonevinced on the occasion of the sad eventof April 14th. Similar assurances thenreached me from all parts. You are al-

ready acquainted with the events of yes-terday. God has preserved me as well asthose traveling with me, and I am anx-ious only for the welfare of Russia, Ihave placed myself in the hands of Providence, but sedition must be extirpated. Iappeal therefore to all right minded people to aid me in the eradication of thisevil which has taken root in Russia. Iaddress mvselfto parents and urge themto conduct their children in the paths oftruth and righteousness, in order thatthey may become, not miscreants, butuseful men and good citizens."

Th S ssassiB Plana.Moscow, Dec 3. A person who was in

the baggage train at the time of the ex-plosion, says that a baggage train of 14carriages and two locomotives was dis-patched half an hour before the traincarrying the Emperor, but by a fortunatechance the czar's train overtook the bag-gage train, passed and left it some dis-tance behind. The explosion attractedthe police and a crowd of people, whowere loud in their expressions of horror.Telegraphic communication was interrupted ror a while, owing to tbe postshaving been blown down by the explosion' Two railway omdials, who were intbe immediate vicinity, were badly injured. Tbe perpetrators doubtlessthought ' tne czar was in thesecond train. The public prosecutor andmagistrate soon arrived. - A letter wasfound in the court yard of an emptyhouse. Concealed under the snow a wire,connected with a battery in an outhouse,from which passing trains could easily beseen, was found.. The house was boughtin September by a yonug maa who w sobserved digging in his cellar bv bisneighbors but disarmed suspicion by declaring that bis reason for doing it was toobtain sand, rrom this cellar was dug apassage in which a train of powderwas laid connecting with a mine nnderthe railway. More wires were found behind the wall paper. It 14 supposed thatseveral persons were engaged in tbework.

St. , Petersbcg, Dec 3. The officialaccount of the attempt to destroy the imperial tram on Monday night states thatthe explosion occurred as the baggagetrain was entering the Rogoeh quarter ofMoscow. Tbe train was turown off therails, aud one baggage van and two passenger carriages thrown right across theline. The explosion caused a gap in tbepermanent roadway four feet and eightinches deep, 16 feet long and 18 teetoroaa.

The Reward Offered fur the Capture ofuarrison.

When William Lloyd Garrison died. Itwas staieu roam price naa been put uponhis head by the State of Georgia. Havingbeen written to for tbe facts, GovernerColquitt stated that, "after diligent re-search into the records of the past historyof Georgia, and inauirv among thorn whoshould have some knowledge of the factor this reward, u such was ever offered, Ican say there is absolutely no trace of anvsuch thing. I firmly believe the wholething an utterly unfounded slander onthe State." But journalism is more activethan the Executive, and the Atlanta n,

searching diligently through thejournals of the House and Senate, comesupon tbe record ot l&ii, wherein it ap-pears that Mr. Nesbitt, a Senator, laid thefollowing upon the table. November 26th:

T Trial t Kajor Reno at Fast Meade.Dbaowood, Dec 4. The Seno ' court

martial which has been sitting at FortMeade since Saturday last, has examinedabout fifteen witnesses, all of whose testimony was favorable to Reno, in that,while admitting his inebriety, he showedno particular malice towards LieutenantNicholson with whom he had an alterca-tion in the officers club room on October25th. That night Reno was under theinfluence of liquor. He struck Nicholsonon the arm with a billiard due, breakingthe cue and Nicholson threw him on tiefloor. Nicholson provoked tbe assaultby saying he could whip Reno. This wastne extent oi tne trouble that mgnt.

Bah Fbamcisco, Dec 3. The argumentson the question of whether the old or thenew city officials have a right to theirseats between tbe present date and tbefirst Monday in January were continuedbetore the supreme court torn morning:After recoss this afternoon Judge Wallacesaid that the decision of the lower courts,which gives tbe offices to the Dew offi-

cers, was affirmed, and that the decisionwould be filed or the followingday. This decision places the new officers

in their positions from 12 o'clockyesterday. Then was a general feelingof relief around the new City Hall whenthe news was telephoned that the su-

preme court had decided in favor of theincoming officials. In anticipationlof thedecision all tbe old officers located at theCity Hall affected by the decision wereprepared to take leave of their offices,and had their records and books in acondition to be examined, so that nothingwas really left to do but to make theformal transfer. In the treasurer's officethe money will have to be counted, which

made xa a aay or a year; and his wife,delicately reared and accustomed to alarge establishment, resolved as a step todischarge every one of the servants."We have health and we have hands,"she said,; or at any rate nsed words tothat effect speaking to her children. "Wemost work; and what we do not knowhow to do we most learn." Of course,the first tiling was to remove to a smallhouse, one only just roomy enough tocontain its several inmates. But noteven a "general servant'' accompaniedthem. A frugal system of diet wasadopted, in which we believe oatmealplayed a considerable part, and everypurchase was made in the cheapest mar-ket This rare lady

- had a horror- - ofpauperism, thosgh she had not the un-

grateful pride which would have madeher decline all help offered to herchildren.. They were taught to keepthemselves in more ways than one; andwhen the darkest days were over, andthe "silver lining" of the cloud began toshow, there is a good reason tobelieve that she felt more of the goodthat had been bidden in the trouble.After all, the time waa not so sad as itseemed. We may be pretty sure that itsifted friends in a wonderful manner ,andthat it was found that the true and loyalwere to bs met within all classes. Someacquaintances, of course, dropped off;bnt it is doubtful if adversity testsfriendship more that does prosperity.The rich and happy are much envied,and sometimes slandered; but the bestfeelings of the best people are generally-draw-

towards those in trouble. Wefancy, too, that the brave lady of whomwe are writing did not allow herself tobe ashamed of her poverty. If peoplewhom she had visited in other days onequal terms drove up to her little parlorwithout any lachrymose manner; though,perhaps, if very busy starching or iron-lt- g,

she kept them waitings few minutes,making dne and truthful apology for do-

ing so, under these circumstances, it isvery likely that her hand, thoughrough and hard from household work,was pressed with more than - usualwarmth' by delicately gloved fingers.Now, if that wife had been content to sitbemoaning her helplessness and misfor-tune, while appealing right and left foraid, what an inferior position would shenow be in, not only in reference toworldly affairs, bnt m regard to the es-

timation ' ef her rlaracter. Besides,energy is very conitgious, and hers mustnot only have cheered her husband in histrouble, but most have been communi-cated to her children. The constantoccupation, too, was the very best thingfor them all; it left no time for merefretting; and, probably, natural fatiguefrom physical exertion ' preventedanxious thought from keeping themawake at night. No doubt our heroinewas very glad when - brighter davvdawnei again, and she could return tomore-congeni- occupations than sweep-ing rooms and lighting fires, but we be-lieve she would do just the same as be-fore should the same terrible occasion re-occur.

The suffering Saltan.

The Constantinople correspondent ofthe Manchester Guardian, writing onthe 24th of September, give's a gloomyaccount of the state of affairs on the

He says:The supposed attempt to assassinate

the snltan has m&da a deeo imnreasion.and Abdul Hamid is now brooding overthe stormy scenes and violent eventswhich had rendered possible his advance-ment to the throne. Uarlv rumors arefloating about as to mental derangementand wild measures being instituted togive a fancied increase of security to theEnlace of Yildiz, and though it would be

safe upon such grounds to assertthat tbe present enltan was going tneway of his predesessor, it is certain thatthe unfortunate monarch at the presentmoment is suffering from great nervousdepression, and can hardly be broughtto pay the necessary , attention to publicaffairs. While gloom and distrust reignat the palace, anger and despair have en-

tered every Turkish household at Constantinople. Discontent is hardly theterm for the feeling with which thepresent state of affairs is viewed by thepeople in general; for the language ofindividuals when they find themselvesfree to express their thoughts is disloyalin the extreme. How can it be otherwisewhen, aftet months of patient waiting,they find matters going from bad toworse; and the promised amelioration asfar off as ever? The last Bairam hasbeen anything but a season of joy; forthe straggle to keep the wolf from thedoor has left nothing for feasting. Forthe first time within the memory of anyone at Constantinople, perhaps in thehistory of the Turks since they first be-

gan to form a nation, the troops did notreceive a month s pay either in Kamazanor Bairam. Only the officers receivedhalf a month's pay, and even this reliefwas not extended to all, while the rationsupon which these families depend forfood nave been railing into arrear. Thepeople are cowed, and among themselveshardly venture to air their grievancesfor fear of the secret police. I haveheard lately of one officer who venturedto present a petition to the Saltan havingmystenonsiy disappeared. Jits unilyhave sought for tidings of him in --nun,and the supposition is that be is aaw onhis way to some distant place of exile forhaving spoken too plainly of the distressamong the poorer officers, tulortu'nately for the people, the scarcity ofmoney, and the distress it occasions, isnot brought home to the ministers andthe heads of departments. Ihey alwaysmanage to secure their largo salarieswhether debts remain unpaid. - No stepsnave yet been takes for the reorganization of the police and gendarmie. or theredaction of the army and navy.. Theimperial trade was signed lor the dis-banding of some seventy-fiv- e battalionsduring the Ramazan, and it was said thatthe men would be sent to their homesimmediately after Briramr bnt apparently the Scraskeir tte has not been, ableto provide the necessary money for pay-ing even a portion of the arrears due tothe poor soldiers, and the arsenal for thesame revon cannot furnish the necessary transport.

He strongly denouced the action of the government, whichhe predicted would utterly fail in its object. The agitation against landlords, hesaid, wonid be continued. Kesolutinnsmoved by Parnell and carried with en-

thusiasm, are to the effect that the arrestsare arbitra-- y, unconstitutional and calcu-lated to weaken the confidence of thepeople of Ireland in the impartiality ofthe law, and that the government whichsquanders the blood and treasure of thepeople iu uniust wars abroad, while misery and famine are unrelieved at home,stands condemned iu the eyes of all rightminded and thoughtful men.

LMTfs sad Tamnlteas Meeting.London, Nov. 30. The gathering in

Hyde Park y in response to a callfor organised demonstration in favor ofthe Irish agitators, consisted of an im-mense mob. A fair sprinkling of greenfavors was observable, but by far thegreater number ofpersons present seemedto be attracted more by curiosity thansympathy.. A goodly number of bands ofmusic enlivened the march from Trafal

and many banners were displayed, but not all or these belonged tothe home rule associations. The proces-sion was swollen by the Tichborne re-lease association, the democratic work-ingme- n's

club, and similar bodies, not inany manner connected with Ireland orIrish agitation. Tbe orators of these out-side associations addressed separategroups, while the mam meeting was inprogress m the park. One of the princi-pal speakers of Irish sympathy meetingproper was Wm. Archer Redmond, bornerule member for Wexford. Tbe speakerswere surrounded by a dense throngwhich cheered so enthusiastically as torender the speeches utterly inaudible,except perhaps to those on the stand.The resolutions protesting against therecent arrest of Irish agitators and denouncing present proprietary in Irelandwere carried by acclamation. The lessnoted speakers, particularity at sidemeetings, used most seditious lamrnace'and their utterances seemed to createranch amusement. The authorities hadapparently taken no preparations whatever ior order, aa only three policemenwere in the vicinity of : the meeting.When darkness came the crowd dispersedano tne delegations marched back totheir respective headquarters with theiruanus piaying lnsn airs, j
