He believed Commandant Scherru-brucker was engaged with other colonial forces in Natal, and he apprehended that both those oflicers would be brieaced with the retrular forces, and would, therefore, be subject to the a rticlea of war, and responsible to the General in command of the army.

In the midst of ail the gaveties of the week, the shadow 00 the picture of life was presented very lorciblv by the ceremonies at the Kornan Catholic Church connected with the death of the young Prince Imperial of France. Col. Jerome Napoleon Bonaparte, who is here for the summer with his family, made-the arrangements for tiiese ceremonies, which were in the form 01 a PontifiVal Hish Mass. The altar was draped in mourning of black crape and white in long folds, and a dazzling display of lights and COSTLY LACE below made an unusual scene to American eves.

The church was filled to overflowing, though the weather was storm a large number of French people being present, who, together with the Bonaparte family, found the services very impressive. Speaking of the Roman Catholic Church recalls the fact that a short time since Dr. Storer, a Boston physician, well known here as a summer resident, astonished his acquaintances, if not his intimate friends, by becoming a convert to the Catholic Cllurch. There are a great many of this faith in Newport during the summer, a large number, of course, being foreigners. As 1 write the familiar sound of the coach-horn is heard in the lmd, and somebody savs that Mr.

Augustus Whiting, of New York, is out with his four-in-h md with the beauties of Mar-Fair on the top of the coach. So it is clearly to be seen tLat Newport is at last ia the full tide of its summer glory, alter the glorious Fourth. N. P.

W''y, 'yyti Production of Gold and Silvor Since Col ambus Discovered America. We recently presented a summary of a report published by Dr.

Dr. Soetbeer took the year 1103 as the starting clats in bis eoraouta-tions; aud very properly, for the modern history of gold and silver begins with the return of Columbus from the first vovasre to the New World. Toward the end of the fifteenth century, before the treasures of America were unlocked, the supply of the precious metals in civilized countries had fallen far below the requirements of trade. Mr.

Iusieal of 09, play for a draw as heat. ADMISSION OP TERRIBLE HEAT. SI. Lnuit Globe-Democrat, Jul if 11 Lncal. Yesterday was the hottest day ever experienced in the history of the War-Department Signal-Service Bureau at this point.

Shortly before 2 o'clock the sweltering observers sway up in the towering Insurance Building looked at the sheltered thermometer which hangs from their window, and found the mercury registering 103 degrees. At3 o'clock the reading was 99.5 degrees. This temperature was not reached at any time last July, nor in 1874, which will be recalled as the hottest summer of the decade except 1S78. The highest temperature attained last July was on the 17th, being 98.5 degrees. Notwithstanding the unparalleled heat, there were but few cases oi sunstroke reported.

'Ibis rather strange circumstance is explained by Serst. Weber on the ground that the air was last summer very hnmid and perspiration was easily checked, whereas this summer the air is verv dry, aud the system is given everv opportunity to properly evaporate. Temperatures equal to those of last July had been attained in previous summers when there were no sunstrokes at ail. In addition to this onysical fact, it remains to be stated that, warned by the terrible experience of last summer, our people have during this term exercised greater caution in caring for themselves, with results that have saved them from an experience at the Dispensary with Francis' water-cure. THB DAY'S SUNSTROKES.

About 4:30 o'clock in the afternoon Scrgt. FJal of the Second District, found an uokuown old man lying unconscious on the sidewalk, near Eleventh and Carroll streets. The man, who bad the appearance of a tramp, bad evidently been stricken down by the heat two or three hours oefore the officer discovered him. The Soulard-Street Station ambulance was telegraphed for, and the stranger conveyed to the City Hospital. Ilis condition is critical, and it is doubtful whether he will recover.

Daniel L.aeey, a picture-peddler, who lives at 2001 Arsenal street, fell under the rays of the sun, aided by more or less alcohol, at the corner of Eleventh and Chestnut streets, about 11 o'clock. He was taken to the City Dispensary and remained under treatment all day, recovering sufficiently by evening to eat a pie and drink a pint of iced tuilK. He was sent home. John Straub, a boy aged 15, living near the Fair-Grounds, was prostrated at Sixth and Lo-enst streets, at 10 a. m.

He was taken to the Dispensary, and, after, being revived, was sent home. The case Is reported of Fred Miller, a carpenter, who was sunstruck on Wednesday evening while working on the roof of nis stat-le at 2S41 Sarah street. He was brought through by Dr. Pirtle. Louis Valley, a boy 17 years old, was suddenly prostrated by the heat about 5:15 o'clock yesterday afternoon, while entering the doorway of his home, on 1 Tavlor street, between Main and Second streets, Carondelet.

Dr. Out-ten was called in and revived the youth by applying the usual remedies. Louis is now ia a fair way to recover. Mr. M.

B. Hart, a Collector, was overcome by the beat while walking along Main street, near Olive, "about 4 o'clock yesterday eveninsr, and fell seuseless to the sidewalk. Officer Diehl restored Mr. Hart by liberal applications of ice-remedies. Au ambulance was telegraphed for, but, when it arrived, Mr.

Hart, who had revived, declined to go to the Dispensary, but went to his home. No. 1113 Olive streer-. Later in the evening he was to the City Hospital. At 10 o'clock last right a reporter happened to be on Fifth street, near line, when he noticed half-a-dozen men standing at the doorway leading to the Mound-City Sleeping-Rooms, next to Cris.

Petersen's beer-saloon, 108 North Fifth street. Some men were carrying a rough pine box down the stairs. It thumped on the sidewalk when it got to the bottom, and a scream arose from two or three women looking on. It was a coffin a "city coffin of the kind said to be worth 25 cents. Its occupant was a victim to the extreme heat.

His came was Rudolph Klingenbereer. lunch-hand" and "beer-slinger at Petersen's saloon. He had not been complaining of ill-health daring the dav, and he went out in the sun two or three times to attend to some private business. The proprietor of the saloon went off watch in the evening, and Rudolph took his place behind the counter. Mr.

Petersen was up-stairs attending a session of a singing society, when a man informed him that his barkeeper was sick. Mr. Petersen found his employe on the eve of expiring. Rudolph was carried up-stairs, and Dr. Irwing, of Chestnut street, was sent for.

but when he arrived tne man was dead. This was abont 9 o'clock; and Rudolph's struggle for life did not last more than ten minutes. impression after tbe intense absurdity of Uie interruption. Before the organization of Colorado as a Territory the inhabitants reioiced in the "Provisional Government Courts," one of whose Judges was a man of jovial turn, a good lawyer, and who never lost his head nor courteous hearing even when somewhat fuddled. A cause before hirh bad proceeded until plaintill had rested his case, when the defendant was offered by bis counsel as a witness.

It was objected that, being a party, the defendant was incompetent as a witness. The point was argued; bnt the Court held that, under the law of the "People's Government;" either party to a suit might be competent as a witness, and raised bis hand to administer the oath. The witness raised his band also, but allowed it to fall befor bis Honor bad half concluded. Thereupon the plaintiff's counsel, disgusted at what he conceived to be an erroneous ruling against him, exclaimed: "I think the witness did not understand what your Honor said; he is very hard" of hearing; in fact, he is entirely deaf in one ear." The Judge looked up at the attorney with an expression of humor that his mellow condition seemed to augment, and said: "Deaf in one eari Well, that's (hie) all risrbt; I didn't (hie) swear him on bis void ear vo-re dire.

Will Carleton has contributed to an agricultural journal out West a jolly little poem recounting his experience with a lightning-rod dispenser," who dropped down on him oDe day With a poem in his motions, with a sermon in hw mien.

With hands as white as lilies, and face uncommon clean. Of course, when he set bis rip-saw tongua a-buzzin'," his listener was gone; he agreed with everything said to him, and had no views upon any subject whatever that were dverse I touched him on religion, and the hopes my heart had known jt. He said be'U had experiences quite simiter of hi own. I told him of the doubtiu's that made dark mj early years; lie had laid awake till morning with that same old breed of fears. I told bim of the rongh path I hoped to Heaven toeo; lie was on that very ladder, only just a roana below.

I told him of my visions of the sinfulness of eain. He had seen tbe sell-same piciers, though not quite ho clear and plain. Our politics was different, and at Brat he galled and winced; But I arg'ed him so able, he was very soon convinced. And 'twas getting toward the middle of a hungry Summer-day; There was dinner on tbe table, and I asked him would he stay. And he est down among us, everlasting trim and neat.

And asked a short, crisp blessing, almost good enough to eat; Then he fired no on the mercies of onr Great Eternal Friend. And gave the Lord Almighty a good Crat-class recommend; And for an hour we listened to the sugar-coated scanp. Talking like a blessed angel, eating like a blasted tramp. My wife she liked the stranger, smiling en him warm and sweet (It always flatters women when their craeats are on the eat). And he hinted that some ladies never lose their early charms.

And kissed the latest baby, and received it in his arms. My sons and daughters liked him, for he bad progressive And chewed the quid of fancy, and gave down the latest news; Tie was spreading desolation through a piece of aople-pie. When he paused and looked upon ns with a tear in bis oh! eye. And then went on to tell how his wife and children bad been killed by since which time be bad wandered aud cared for naught but to save "other loved ones whoso lives have yet been 6pared, and to sell to virtuous people good lightning-rods at cost." A contract for rodding the bouse was sigue.l, and That very day with wagon came come men. both great Biid small; They climbed upon my buildings jnst as if they owned 'em all; They hacked 'em and tbey hewed 'em, much against my loud deirea; v.

They trimmed 'em op witli gewgaws, and they bound 'em down with wires; They trimmed 'cm ana they wired 'em, and they trimmed and wired 'em still. And every precious minute kept a-ruaning up tho bill. My soft-epoke gnest a-aeeking, aid I rave, and rush, and run: lie was supping with a neighbor, just a three mile furl her on. "Do you think." I fiercely shouted, "that I want a mile of wire Td save each separate haycock out o' Heaven's con-sutnin' Are? Do yoa think, to keep my bnildin's safe from somo uncertain harm, I'm goin' to deed yoa over all tha balance of my farm?" He looked np quite astonished, with a face devoid of guile. And he pointed to the contract with a reassuring smile; It was tho first occasion that he disagreed with, me, But be held me to that piper with a firmness sad to see And for that thunder story, ere tha rascal finally went, I paid two hundred dollars, if I paid a singlo cent.

SONG. Ye, my sonl is sad this evening. Thinking of ihe oyeone days Ere my feet so far had wandered In Life's deviat.iii ways. When the sky wa clear alKive me, Lit by Hope's bewitching glow, Ere nry youtnfiil, caacr spirit Time's rebuffs had learned to know; In those olden, golden moments. I believed in Love and Truth, Stead tasmess of aim and purpose Which shonld my youth; Ana I dreamed of lofty pleasures To lie won in comina years.

Which, ne'er wearying nor palling, alight renew in higher spheres. But, to-night, I sadly ask me, Shall I ever reach the goal That so proudly I attempted In the Springtime of the soul Are not shadows Closing round me! Niglit will follow, dende and dark; Can mv vision still distinguish. Through the gloom, the aistant mark? Ah 1 1 find Earth's sweetest moments Come when life and heart are young; Sweetest hopes are ihcn ascendant, And the sweeiett soul-sonus sang, Bui, llioivjh I must liDaor loncer, VV hen life yields no farther sooth. When the night comes, dark and siler.t, I shall find eternal youth. Osucosn, Wis.

Wu-sok. Kxpensive Economy. The rebuilding of the famous Eddystons light-bouse has revealed a curious bit of most expensive economy. It will be remembered that after one structure had beeu destroyed hv storm and another bv fire, John Sineaton undertook the task whteb was successfully completed mora than a hundred years ago. He secured a perfect foundation for tbe massive pile bv au ingenious eystem of dovetailing, which fixed the lower courses of stone into Hie solid rock of the roof.

Bat he discovered, after the entire work was finished, a small cavern iu the reei" imaiutliatciT under the foundation, which might, hs thought, prove a source of trouble at some uistant period in tbe future, fie ctinin.t the cost of tilling np and properly cementing at $1,250, and recommended it should be done immediately. But it never wasdooe, aud now uie danger which Smeaton predicted, and would have guarded against, bas actually arrived. 1 im incessant action of the waves, assisted perhaps by the weisrht and vibration of the tovvci above, bas enlarged the cavern until the fun mixtion can no longer be trusted.

Pieces were formally exchanged and pawns advanced, as if hy preconcerted agreement, until the board was sufficiently clear to satisfy the bystanders that, neither party wa litely to win. In the third game, the French opening was again adopted, and when Mr. Maon cas led on side some lively work wa looked for; but this hazardous move was followed by a complete brealc-dawii, and Mr. Potter scored an easy victory. The fourth come, played last utifht, tnonsrh also very brief, was better contested.

and was iu reality the most interesting time of the match. In reply top to fourth. Mr. Mason on this occasion selected to K. three; ihe opening moves did not at first reveal sny great advantage on either side, but as the same advanced Masou's position rot grAuallv twistel Ui through the advance of Porter's pawns, till an opening presented itself for a crushing aciaek upoa the aide, to which there was not a shadow of a defense available- The pa Die was ever ia twenty-six- mores.

Mr. Mason Is evidently inexperienced in the clasj of opecluK which Mr. 1'otter selects as bis battleileld, hence an unwonted caution and iieMtancy in his play: it is possible this may cive way to better form as the match proceeds, but unless some chantre takes lace promptly, the match will hardiy take rank among- flrst-cluss chews performances. London Correspondence Oitutgow JleraitL The Cincinnati Cnmmtrrtal, to answer to a correspondent, recently announced that the "recognized rule ''did not permit of checSs on the first move in problems. This has acted somewhat in tbe manner of a boinkMhell, we should judne, from the commotion it has oeeasioned among iu correspondents, it last Istue beint; laret-ly devoted to protests against the injustice, absurdity, cf such a rule.

We think that our contemporary Is laboring under a misapprehension. There is no established or recoiinlssed rule in regard to this matter that we ever heard of, and the only occasion in which such a "rule" was ever advanced is in the pendins problem tourney- of the Glasgow Hrralii (cited by the Orfr) but that is fimply one of the conaitlons of its own tourney, and has no significance or ltearing outside of it. other than as an Individual opinion as to the status of euch problems. There is no question, however, that problems tti ito ortbrrt tnwes, commencing with belonsr to an inferior class or (trade. So better etithoHry as to the truth of this assertion can be required than composers of the first rank themwlvc.

and they, the world over, have demonstrated it in their com positions. What seems an established rule is simply the outgrowth of higher and more advanced gtare of the art. Composers, in their early attempts, carry out their ideas through a feilesof lorccd checks and by the hideous check by discovery." As they more prottcient and skillful tiicy endeavor to attain by flnt what they accomplished before by force. Problems of the "check-checi-eheck class lack the charm, the beauty, the subtlety, the depth, which so highly (iUtlueuish the best efforts of a skillful composer. They remind one forcibly of an uafortunate individual who has been incontinently poiuiced mwa by a brutal constabulary, and Kicked, culled, aud pounded ou his way to the lock-no.

The Holyoke Transcript of the 5th tnst. has the following interestinsr eossip from its JJew York corre-spond'ent, Hieat interest is excited here by the combination of the rumors that Mr. Mackenzie will shortly begin a series of ma.clies with Mr. Hornier, Mr. Judd, an Mr.

Dt'lmcr. I he terms offered by Mr. Judd are counidered by many very favorable 03 much so in fact to himself, aud considerable curiosity is awakened to see if Mr. Mackenzie will consent to elve him what is under the circumstances the great odds of the draw games which Mr. Judd has named; it is said now, aud it seems to be asserted uoon authority, that Mswsrs.

Del-mar and Mackenzie hve agreed to play a match, the latter giving pawn and move in three eames out of seven, out that is not to befrtu until after the termination of whatever matctiea may be arranged with the Western champions; notwithstanding the statement iu the 'ixrAhat there is no likelihood of any match between these gentlemen at present, I have reason to leel auiie con ttdeut that one has already been agreed on. Mr. Delmar has openly stated at the Manhattan Club, as 1 am informed, hat he is entirely willing. Iu fact acxious, to meet Mackenzie on even terms, but 1 must be allowed to say that, if this be true, 1 cannot believe he was serious. Mr.

Delmar is a very line plsver; for olhnnd games he is without an equal for brilliancy and ingenuity; but I readily adopt what I gather as the prevailing opinion, that his forte is not In serious match ulay, and that in a contest of that nature he could not cope successfully with the greater experience of Mackenzie. The recent match with Loyd is looked noon as being without significance lie-cause tioyd, while pre-eminent as a prohiern poser, has never been looked upon as a formidable adversary over he board, and Mr. Delmar must not aliow his env victory over him to elate him too much, nor must lie conclude from that alone tnat he can hold his own on even terms with the conqueror of Winawer and Zntertort. As to Mr. Mosmer, 1 cannot that any proposition has yet been received from him." CHESS IN CHICAGO.

Boutn Dearborn st, 133 8-10 ft of Thir- 350 proceeding's clustered, and the general, to say nothing of the indiviaual, interest centred arrived at the wharf in the Old Colony steamboat. Thousands of people were on Wharf even at that early hour.

Amonjjst them were the Fourth-of-July Committee, the Mayor of the city, and the Governor's representative, Gen. Barney, Both of these gentlemen made pithy little speeches of warm welcome, to which Col. Rodney Ward, of the Twenty-third, responded, and TUB CBOWD CHEBRED AND WAVED their hats, and the Day sparkled in the dawning sunlig-ht, making altosether such a scene of joyous reception as well might gladden the visitor's heart. After these preliminaries the regiment proceeded, the right wing to breakfast at the Ocean House, the left to the camping-ground, which is a delightful spot overlooking the cliffs and the great sweep of the ocean and the beaches. And now just see the convenience of the tent accommodations upon this beautiful, breezy situation.

There were 260 entirely new tents, the officers' being fourteen feet square, the men's nine leet, wit.fi two men for a tent. These tents were floored, the flooring raised on joists some distance from the ground. Two cots were in each tent, and the nattiness, the neatness, the cosiness of the whole, seen from within or without, were a pretty and inviting sight, sugeestive of comfort and jollitv. When rested aud refreshed in these fine quarters, the right and left wings met, later in the day, and took their places in the grand procession. And a grand procession it really was.

An on-looker who had watched from the same point of vantage upon Washington Square the departure and return, together with the reviews of the various regiments during the War, said that there had been nothing like this since those days, and that there was something in the spirit of it all that most vividly recalled THAT STIRRING TIME. A rood many other on lookers were thrilled with the same feeling. I can't explain this; 1 don't think that anv one did or could explain it. There have been other displays on a sufficiently larae scale upon various occasions, but they lacked this fire and spirit, this something which sparkled and thrilled through the commonplace, and lifted everything into an inspiring atmosphere. To be sure, the Twenty-third served gallantly, and diatineuished itself in the War, but so bad other reciinents who had paid a summer visit in times past to these shores, too, without stirring the pulse like this.

Bat it is vain to strive to hit upon any central reason for this peculiar effect. It may have been partially the unusual demonstrations upon this particular day, and partially the magnetism of tne famous retriment with its Veteran Association, that produced the magnetic whole that made the national holiday what it has not been for many years in this or anv other city in the United States. It was such a fitting spot, too, for this patraiotic elan of feeling, the old historic town which bears so manv landmarks of the Revolutionary glory, and which bears them, too, more vividly as it were perforce of the singular charm of RICH ItOMANCB that comes down to us so freshlv from both French and English as well as American chronicles. As the great procession with its band alter band of music filed down through some of the quaint, unaltered old streets and squares, past ancient houses and corners that held a history a hundred years old, I think anv one with any imagination canst have thought of the stirring tales of that far-away famous time when past these very houses, and halting at these very corners, Rochambeau and all those gallant Frenchmen escorted Washington and his 6uite. But the great procession of this year far outnumbered that of the past.

It was said there were fully 2,000 in line, all the men and officers of Fort Adams, the New York and Westerly militia and veterans, all the various city associations and officers, and the Twenty-third, with its 470 men and forty officers, together with other companies from other places in the State, the names of which I did not learn. It was a famous victory for the projectors of the celebration, and HAFPT TRIUMPH beamed from their faces as they sat In official state in the carriages that followed in the line. And as the line streamed slowly in and out and ud and down street after street, such demonstrations of cheer after cheer, and of flying handkerchiefs from open windows and piazzas, have not been given for many and many a year, not since the old day of our War with the South. Yes, it was a famous victory, and the Providence neighbor who looked down upon the $2,000 extravaarance and talked of popgun displays came down handsomely at the UDSbot of the extravagance, and applauded unstintingly, while she declared frankly that Newport had covered herself with glory and honor in her effort, and showed what might be done to make the day what it should be, a grand celebration which should bring out the real spirit of the old and the new fervor of patriotism. There was an oration, of course, and Gov.

Van Zandt gave it, touched with the historic flavor of the old romance of the old town, as it should be. And with all this there was the meeting of the famous ojd Society of the Cincinnati, with a very large attendance, and the boat-races and submarine races came off, and the Twenty-third was Teviewed after it all, on the camping-ground, where 4,000 or more peopie, and three or four hundred carriages were present. The violent showers at the close of the dav and in the evening prevented the fireworks which had been in preparation, but this could not damp the ardor of the satisfaction that prevailed at the famous victory of the dav. The end of the Fourth, however, was only the commencement of the jubilant visit of the Twenty-third, "THAT BLESSED TWENTY-THIRD!" as a voungladv ecstatically declared, "which has set everything in motion so dehgbtiully." The visit of the regiment was not for a dav, but for ten (lavs, and great have been the merrymakings during these days. One of the most brilliant of the receptions given to them was by the wealthy China merchant of New York at his residence on Castle Hill.

The gathering was a notable one, comprising Gen. aud Mrs. Vodges and other officers and their wives Jiom Fort Adam3, officers from the torpedo-station, Gov. Van Zandt and wife, and many the "summer people." Reception has followed reception, and the Ocean House has resountled in waltz-strains, while flying feet kept time in Louis XV. slippers, in unison with those of the blessed Twenty-third," and on the 10th, after all this gay clangor of jubilation, the- gallant fellows take their departure amidst salutes, and cheers, and the compliments of tne town.

"Such a set of gentlemen, from officers to privates!" was the comment of all those who were broughtin contact in any way with them. And so, playing at the very last, THE GIRL I IiEFT BEHIND ME," and with the girl thus left waving her handkerchief, In a blaze of blue aud red fire, amidst a crowd of eight or ten thousand persons, these gentlemen, who had won all hearts, and made the glorious Fourth a oay to be remembered lor a lonsr time to come, marched down to Long Wharf and set sail for New York. Thus ended one of the most memorable and enjovable visits, both to entertainer and visitor, that Newport has known since her Majesty's ship Bel-leroohon made festival here. One of the guests aud on-lookers at these merrv-makiugs lor the past week has been Miss Forney, who" is hero with her brother, Capt. J.

Forney, of the United States Marine Corps, now attached to the torpedo-6tation. Miss Forney is the daughter of the Philadelphia Journalist, Col. J. W. Forney.

And the reeling Earth and shrieking winds By His mighty brcaih are stirred When the frenzied waves that climb the skies Iioar defiance to Man's will, Yet resoond in siphs to the low, sweet voice That whispers, "Peace be still 1" There is music sweet when the night's low sigh la with streamlet's flow As it lauL'ha on its way o'er its pebbly bed. Murmuring soit and low. There's a spirit of harmony blent with the night. And with the sweet incense of flowers. As o'er the tin shed Earth the stars shed their beams.

And Peace its sweet balm o'er the hour. There is music sad when the night-breeze floats O'er the graves where our loved are lying. And our hearU respond with bitter wail To its low and mournful sighine. The whispering tones of the rustling leaves, As they wave where they lowly are Bleeping, Wake memories pat of "loved and lout, Till the heart finds relief bat iu weeping. There are songs of gladness ringing oat From the harps of golden tune; And a hymn of wo is wafted up From the wayes beneath tne moon.

As they solemnly chant a requiem For the beautiful and the brave Whose last low sighs seem floating still Like echoes o'er the wave. There are echoed tones that dwell in the heart' When the tonames that awoke them are still; There are vibrant voices tnat sign or apeak Till its inmost puises thrill. We smile or weep as tbe phantom voice Breathes the accents of woorminh; And the hidden tones, the veil-cd voice, Are the dearest music of Earth. Haggis A. Coykb.
