The Fifth Regiment reached Boston at about 4 o'clock Saturday afternoon, and marched through Eliot, Washington, School and Beacon streets to the Common, where a dress parade was held, Major Jordan officiating as Adjutant. Col. Trull expressed to the officers, and through them to the men, his thanks for the excellent conduct of the regiment, both as regards discipline and drill. The officers and men are to be congratulated upon the appearance of the regiment. The cordial reception and entertainment by the Second Regiment was all that could be desired.

Two pleasant episodes connected with the trap are worthy mention. The first occurred Friday afternoon, when, in behalf of the officers, Col. Trull presented the Paymaster with an elegant gold badge, consisting of a pin, bearing the word Paymaster," and the bars of a First Lieutenant, from which depended the Fifth Regiment badge, or seal, and a tiger's head. The second incident took place on the train Saturday, the men patting their hands in their pockets and presenting a purse of some $200 to member of Company of Woburn, wbo received a telegram Friday night that his house and furniture had been destroyed by fire. On the route from New Haven a member of Company was very severely injured by falling across the side or back of a seat.

He was almost pletely paralyzed for some time, but recovered later.

May, a young man in the employ of William S.

Anderson, a broker, on a charge of embezzling $603 72 from his employer. May was arraigned in the Municipal Court on Saturday, and was held in $1500 for trial in the Superior Court. It will be remembered that during the rush for the refunding certificates May, who was entrusted with some $600 by Anderson to purchase certificates, reported that he had been robbed of the amount, and showed his pocket, which had been slit with a knife. Be then fainted and was carried away. Late in the day the affair was reported to Inspector Skelton, and, as he and Mr Andorson had little faith in the story, an investigation was begun.

It was covered that on the day following the occurrence May deposited $485 in the Five Cents Savings Bank, drawing from it occasionally as his needs required. Another deposit was made of $150 in the Rockland Savings Bank of Roxbury a few days later, which was soon withdrawn, and his entire deposit In the Five Cents Savings Bank was taken out last week. Mr Skelton, being satistied that May had no means of earning so much money, pointedly accused him of appropriating Mr Anderson's funds. He at first appeared indignant. but upon being closely pressed with what the inspector had discovered be confessed to the embezzlement, and said he had buried $300 in Andover, where he resided.

This proving to be a falsehood, he finally said that he had given that amount to big mother, leading her to believe that he had earned it. This money she had loaned to another person, of whom it was recovered and restored. The remainder has probably been wasted. Summer Evening Sermons. Religious services were conducted at the hall of the Young Men's Christian Union, Sunday evening, by Rev.

Warren H. Cudwortb, who preached from Luke, 42, But one thing is needful," upon the necessity of making God supreme in mental culture, moral training, and spiritual development, as He is supreme in the establishment and vindication of physical law. Becsuse God is supreme, he said, and no one interteres with nor resists him, the earth volves upon its axis, the tides ebb and flow, day and night succeed each other with unchanging regularlitv. and nature experiences those marvellous transformations which give us annually Spring. Summer, Fall and Winter.

Let Him become equally supreme in the government of buman affection and the con trol of human conduct, and the same order, beauty and harmony would exist in human life as may be observed in the stupendous phenomena of the starry universe. When God- becomes supreme, self must in variably be subordinated to his will, and all things work together for our good. What the scholar is to his master, the soldier to his general, the workman to his overseer, will the soul become to Him. It will see so clearly that in Him alone are wisdom, safety, peace and satisfaction, that it will know and care tor nothing elee. No athlete in the arena, DO racer on the track, no competitor for earthly honors can be half so eager and determined to press forward to the prize.

If other callings are referred to God's high calling will tranecend them all, and God's great and glorious name will shine with a lustre so resplendent that all other names will fade and dis; appear. Counterfeiting the City Seal. Soon after the judges' boat at the Fourth of July rowing regatta left the landing to go over the course, it was discovered that a large number of persons in excess of the tickets issued were on board, many of whom were of a class not usually invited. 0.1 looking over the tickets in the bands of the tickettaker, a number of well-executed counterfeits were discovered The spurious tickets were of the same size as the legitimate ones; printed upon stock of the same grade and color, and had the same general appearance, but differed in two of the minute details of type; ava the city seal in the centre, although of the same size, was different in the ornamental de sign, having mstead of a wreath, four ornamental es cutch-ons. Mr Churchill of the firm of Rockwell Churchill, the city printers, says that the counter feits never emanated from any of his present ployes, as he never had a seal of that pattern in his establishment, and aside from this statement the well-known integrity of the firm raises them above suspicion.

From later inquiries it is believed that the counterfeiter is a man who was discharged from the service of this firm for the perpetration of a simi Jar fraud some years ago. An investigation will be made. London and Lancashire Fire Insurance Company. The London and Lancashire Fire Insurance Company of Liverpool, which has been admitted to do business in this State, was organized in 1862; bas a subscribed capital of paid up; cash assets of over $1,700.000, and a net surplus of $407,000.

VANDERBILT'S PURCHASE. Interview with Mr Edward Hamilton, Late Secretary of the Troy and Grendeld Railroad and Hoosac Tannel-The Tunnel Business and the Troy and Boston Road. The purchase of a controlling interest in the Troy and Boston Railroad, the western outlet of the Hoosac Tunnel, by Mr W. H. Vanderbilt of the New York Central Railroad, occasioned no little excitement in this city, and not a few expressed the opinion that the transaction foreshadowed the practical up of the Tunnel.

A reporter was sent to shutting interview Mr. Edward Hamilton, late Secretary of the Troy and Greenfield Railroad, and it will be seen the report below that Mr Hamilton believes from augurs nothing detrimental to the that this purchase Tunnel or the trade of Boston. REPORTER- Mr Hamilton, your views relative to western connection of the Troy and the present Railroad are desired. What do you think Greendela of the purchase of the Troy and Boston Railroad by Mr Vanderbilt? HAMILTON-I think It means a great deal. MR that Mr Vanderbilt does not mean to First, it proves exclude Boston and New England from equal particiin the advantages of the great railroad syspation tems which he practically and absolutely controla; and second, that he recognizes that the effeotive way to compete with Baltimore and Philadelphia is to unite New York and Boston in one interest as against third, that he has four tracks from Buffalo to them; York over the New York Central, the Hudson New the Harlem roads, and he intends to have River and four tracks to Boston over the Boston and Albany and by the Tunnel route.

do not think Mr Vanderbilt wishes you block up the Tunnel, but will do more business to than 16 now done by the Troy and Boston road? a proposition is an absurdity. The MR through business of the Vanderbilt roads 18 conincreasing, and Ave eighths of the cereal stantly transported over the New York Central products road comes into New England; but a small proportion of this tonnage goes to New York city; the Cenroad simply proposes to have its share in the adtral of the Tunnel route; had Mr Vanderbilt vantages desired to stop up the Tunnel, be could practically at any time by simply withdrawing his have done so business from the line, and as the Troy and Boston Railroad is the only western connection of the Tunnel it would have had 7ery little business to send instead of sending over our State road through it, 539,000 tons of new freight business in the second of its operation, as was done last year. The year only disposition manifested by Mr Vanderbilt to block up the Tunnel has been to block it up with business. you not think Mr Vanderbilt desires to control the Tunnel and State road? MR Did you ever know a great railroad corporation which did not seek to control all the lines it connected with? Yet while this as a general principle is true, it is not true that Mr Vanderbilt has ever directly sought to control the State road and Tunnel; the Troy and Boston Company always sought consolidation with it, because the State in certain leases and arrangements in 1862, and in other years, agreed to do 80 on completion of the Tunnel; but Mr Vanderbilt simply asks that chusetts shall have a fixed and determined policy regarding the Tunnel; all he asks is that when be makes contracts for through business for a term of years with Western roads that the State policy regarding the Hoosac Tunnel will be the same next year it was this. From very good authority it has been stated that Mr Vanderbilt was in favor of the passage of an amendment to our State Constitation fixing the ownership and control of the nel for all time in the people of the State, to be used by all connecting lines of railroad on exactly equal terms.

On this basis he feels he can play his part in the drama of life, whether in peace or in war." of war, what do you think of the Burt road Mr an Erie Railroad connection I cannot understand why the ownership of the Troy and Boston Railroad by Mr Vanderbilt can affect it. Gen. Burt has impressed his stockholders and the public bere with the belief that grand results are to follow the completion of his thirty odd miles of road from the State line of Vermont to Mechanicsville, N. Y. I trust they will not be disappointed, nor, if they should be, charge it as among Mr Vanderbilt's sins that they are disappointed.

It has always seemed to me that there was no inharmonious action between the New York Central and the Erie roads in late years, and that the recent frequent trips to London, where reside the thirteen 'Trustees who control the stock of the Erie road, on the part of Mr Vanderbilt meant something, and, if recent reporte are true, it turns out that while Mr Burt has been amusing us with his furious telegrams about the trials he is undergoing to open a way tor the Erie business through the Tunnel, and the anni. hilation of Vanderbilt, that Mr Vanderbilt has slipped over to London and made a union of interests, and comes back to take charge of the Erie as well as the Central, so that the coy maiden of the Erie, and the and torn" man of the Boston, Hoosac Tunnel and Western will wake up to find that the "priest, all shaven and shorn," who is to unite them in the boly bonds of trade, is the man who lives in the house that Vander-bilt. This only proves that Mr Vande bilt cannot be killed by telegraphs in the papers, if a railroad can be built in that way. As to what I think of the Burt road, I think it and the Delaware and Hudson Canal Company's road will, within five years, all go into Mr Vanderbilt's bag together, at a less price per share than he paid for the Troy and Boston stock. do you think so? Mr.

the Delaware and Hudson Company have put themselves in antagonism to the Vanderbilt interest, and Gen. Burt has laid down in the same bed with them, and, like "Old Tombolin," they will find it very cold weather bye and bye. Tombolin and his wife and his wife's mother All jumped into bed together. The weather was cold and the sheets were thin, very cold says old Tombolin." you do not favor additional connections with the Tunnel route? Mr assuredly I do, both on the East and West; but they must be parts of systems independent of existing corporations, reaching by their own lines the points of competition; that in common with Mr Vanderbilt these systems shall have equal and exact privileges over the State road, paying just and reasonable tolls. The Troy and Greenfeld road and Hoosac Tunnel should be owned and operated by the State; yes, must be owned and operated by the State, for if it is abandoned to any one line it is practically closed to all others; but if kept free and open it will be like a spout to a funnel, receiving the lated results of the lines built and operated in any direction which connect and pour their business through it.

the State prepared to receive this large accession of business over its road? Mr If it is not it is not the fault of the Legislature, but of the Governor and Council. Appropriatone were promptly made to double track the road west of the Tunnel, and do other necessary work which by this time should have been well advanced toward completion, but nothing has yet been done. The next Legislature will, I think, take this business from the Governor and Council, elect a manager and give him power to double track the whole road, operate it, and take it out of the hands of Springfield influences which now control at the State House. you think the State should double track its road before the Fitchburg double track theirs to Greenfield? MR Fitchburg is double-tracked from Ashburnham to Boston, and is being double-tracked from Athol to Orange, and when this is done it will have less miles of single track than the State road has, and it would undoubtedly have two tracks from Greenfield as soon as the State was ready to connect with two tracks. you are not alarmed at the progress of Mr Vanderbilt east? MR H.

On the contrary, I think it is greatly to Mr Vanderbilt's credit that he exhibits such a clear perception of the situation. He comprehends that with the continent behind him to draw from there is business enough for both Boston and New York, and that if he does not do his share of Boston business body else will. So far as railroad business, that is business from railroad connections, is concerned, he is master of the situation; and his late purchase, in my humble opinion, means business for Boston and the whole State at low rates of transportation, and in this effort our people should extend to him the right hand of fellowship. how are other routes to compete with Mr Vanderbilt if he controls the Boston and Albany and the Tunnel? MR H. -Neither Mr Vanderbilt or any other corporation will be permitted to control the Tunnel or State road.

That belongs to the people; but he should have every facility over it any other company have; no more, no less. As to how to compete with Mr Vanderbilt's systems of roads, I do not think it worth while to enter into a discussion of that ject at this time. am obliged to you for what you have given me, and will reserve that subject for a future interview. Bnainess Embarrassments. A.

N. Murray gentlemen's furnishing goods, 16 United States Hotel block, Beach street, have failed with liabilities at $5050 61 and assets at $2976 18. Mr Murray thinks he can offer 30 cents on the dollar. William A. Morrison, late in the leather trade, 129 Summer street, proposes to pay 10 cents on the dollar, Curtis Cobb, seedsmen, Boston, have no assets more tban enough to pay expenses.

We have the assurance of the managers of one of the banks which holds some of the Edmands torged paver that the rumors published in a morning paper on Thursdav last that the banks were willing and seeking to take fifty per cent. on their claims and forego prosecution of Edmands are not true. The banks have made no such proposition, and would not accept it if made to them, They realize the wrong which would be done to the community by adopting such a course, and they do not propose to take any steps which will in any way bear the appearance of being wilting to shield the forger from the penalty which his acts deserve. A despatch from St. Louis announces that Messrs Simmons and Squire finished the Appleton, Noyes Mande matter in the Circuit Court there Saturday, seerring the discharge of the assignee and between $150,000 and $200,000 for their Boston clients.

They lett Saturday night for Louisville to close the Jarvis (state. A Shooting Affair. Some eight or nine days ago one Terence Lynch was robbed of a quanity of clothing, and among the articles was a necktie. On Saturday morning, as Lynch was passing through Kingston street, be saw a necktie which he immediately identified as the one atolen from him, on the person of James Breen. He proached Breen and claimed his property.

A quarrel ensued and the men came to blows. Lynch foally drew a small five barrelled revolver and fired one shot, the bullet taking effect on Breen's left cheek, near the corner of the mouth. Lynch succeeded in getting away unmolested, and going in the direction of the South End he met Officer Misener of Station Five, to whom he related his story and gave himself into custody. He was subsequently arraigned before Judge Parmenter of the Municipal Court and held in $2000 for trial in the Superior Criminal Court. Probably Fatal Accident.

About 11 o'clock on Saturday forenoon, Lyman Thayer, the 5 year old son of Hos Thayer, residing at No. 53 Centre street, was run over by one of the Metropolitan cars in front of his residence, and had his right hip crushed.

Ar Gee and Ar Teek, two Chinese who do business at No. 264 Hanover street, went out to drive on the Mill-dam on Saturday afternoon, and undertook to compete with several fast trotters, and in so doing drove their animal at a breakneck pace, to the great danger of other people on the road. They were overhauled by mounted Officer Cunningham, when they d. clared that it wasee horse's faultee, and poor Chinamance meanes no much harmee." They were locked up, and in the evening another Chinaman called at the station to bail them. Ar Gee and Ar Teek refused to accept the offer, and wanted their Sunday school teacher, A Melican" lady, to bail them.

As the lady aid not appear they were held. OUT-DOOR SPORTS.

1 took water tirst and forged ahead balf a length before the other boats had well settled down to their work. Shawmut No. 2 yawed to starboard, threatening a foul, which was happily averted, but nevertheless caused a little unsteadiness in her crew, resulting in a decidedly bad crab br No. 3 man, which necessitated a dead stop before the blade could be recovered. But little time was lost, however, and she was soon on her way again, with a Point crew kept well under the wall, and the congood showing of pluck and determination.

The City siant shower of spray showed either that the water was too rough or that the men were unduly excited. At the upper part of the course the City Pomt crew, mistaking a small boat tor the upper stake, pulled across towards the Cambridge side, threatening a foul with the second Shawmut crew. At the close, Shawmut No. 1 came down the course with a swinging stroke and crossed the live a good quarter mile in the lead, making a record of 20.41½; Shawmut No. 2 crossed in 21.30½2, claiming second money on account of the City Point crew crossing her bows, as noticed above, and the City Points came in last in 22.31½.

It is seldom that so good a start is made by the working-boats, where a foul or two is generally looked for as the first thing on the programme. The first time down, the Lakeman No. 1-and West Ead crews came down together.

The Lakemans reached the stake first, and the West End boys cut inside, and caused the Lakemans to make a wider circie, yet the latter kept their lead.

Fryer and his company regard to the payment of salaries, and to the fact that Mr Fryer went to New York or somewhere else on Saturday without notifying any considerable number of people of his intention, the Fatmitza" season at the Boston seum was brought to an abrupt close on Saturday, and the Children's Pinafore Company occupied the stage on Saturday evening. For some ten weeks previous to appearing in this city the company had been doing a very poor business, and it is said that when they appeared bere salaries were four weeks in arrears. The business of the week has paid a profit, the division of the receipts being equal between Mr Fryer and the Museum. The neglect to adjust the old accounts made the members of the company demand payment on Friday Field evening, succeed- before going upon the euge. Manager ed in making the company realize that tho public had certain rigbts which they were bound to respect, and the performances were given on Friday evening and at Saturday's matinee.

Mr Fryer's agent, Mr Nets wender, claims that the salaries were but one week in arrears and that Fryer has paid the company not only all his receipts, but moneys borrowed to reduce the claims of the company, as well. A large number of the company have left the city. There is no possible blame attached to the Museum management, the engagement having been made in good taith upon the supposition that Mr Fryer oould fulfill his promises. Next Season's Prospect.

SUBURBAN MATTERS. LINN. A TERRIBLE STABBING AFFRAY occurred in George W. Russell's eating saloon at No. Central street, Lynn, on Saturday morning, the participants being Usher Dann, a German, and John Bluitte.

Both men were employed as cooks in the eatinghouse, Bluitte, who was the head man, having been engaged about four months, while Dann haa been at work about three weeks. They were at work in the kitchen, preparing the meat for dinner, when words arose regarding the division of the work, and during a heated argument Dann threw a piece of meat at Bluitte. Blutte did not pay any attention to this act, but when Dann used, regarding him, an opprobious epithet, he struck the latter in the face. On a table near the man was an ugly-looking butcherknife, with a blade ten and one-balt inches in length, and very sharp. When Dann received the blow he picked up this knife, and standing within four feet of his victim hurled the knife with terrible force at Bluitte.

The weapon penetrated through the unfortunate man's clothing and entered his left side just under the breast bone, inflicting a wound tully three and a half inches in depth. Dann then rushed out of the saloon with his apron still on and made his escape. The wounded man was taken into the yard in the rear of the saloon and Dr Emerson, who had been called, dressed his wound. The cut, fortunately, was an outward one, for had it gone rectly inward and upward the knife would have reached the heart, and death must bave been instantaneous. Bluitte was conveyed to his poarding-house and the search for Dann was at once commenced.

As near as can be ascertained Dann, after committing the deed, started in the direction of his dwelling-house; but, fearing discovery, changed From his course and get out for Rook's pasture. that place he went to Pine Grove cemetery and skirted along the hills until he reached a stable belonging Child to Mrs Malony, at the corner of Boston and streets, where he secreted himself, and where he was arrested by the City Marshal.

He expresses great sorrow for his act, and says that he must have been in a terrible passion when he committed the deed. He freely admitted his guilt, and it was apparent that the act was committed while he was in a fit of governable rage.

At 8 o'clock on Sunday evening Bluitte was in a very critical condition, and but slight hopes were enterrained of his recovery, as he was bleeding internally. SERIOUS Saturday evening last Ofcer Garney arrested Ann Downey for an assault on Bridget Donabue with an axe, at the residence of Mis Downey on Ezra street.

JACKSON, N. JULY 2, 1879. Knowing that your numerous readers are interested in all places of Summer resorts among the mountains I take pleasure in sending a short communication from this point. Jackson is in truth one of the brightest gems in the whole White Mountain region and is growing in popular favor every year as one of the most desirable places to spend the season in New England. Situated in the valley of the Ellis and Wild Cat rivers, coursing through meadows rich in beauty and completely hemmed in on all sides by mountains, it affords a rare picture and one that any artist delights to sketch.

First appears Iron Bluff, a spur of Iron Mountain, with its bold and rugged face, just above us, and almost within a stone's throw. Eagle Mountain comes next, where a delightful variety of woodland and craggy forms are seen, and where, until within a few years, the proud bird held full sway among its storm torn cliffs. But the horn of the hunter was heard on the hill; now the scream of the eagle is silent and still. Black Mountain clasps hands, and is rightly named from its dark lines of spruce and hemlock, and shadowy appearance. Double Head is more grand and beautiful and the view very tine.

Next Thorn Mountain, whose face is ever smiling, and from whose summit one of the grandest of all views can be obtained of the whole White and Franconia range, and indeed of all the principal mountains, while the Saco Valley is seen in all its varied charms. One can ride within three-quarters of a mile to the summit, and then by an excellent path on foot. I advise all who visit Jackson to make this trip. A few rods from the Glen Ellis House is Sunset Hill, where splendid views of Mt. Washington, Giant Stairs, Kiarsarge, Mote and Chocorua Mountains are obtained, and the sunsets from this point are enough to drive an artist crazy, for they are indeed most glorious.

Among the delightful drives are those over Thorn Hill, Goodrich Falls, Dundee, Prospect Farm and Carter Notch, distance eight miles Glen Ellis Falls and Crystal Cascade, eight and a half miles Glen House, twelve miles, and Jackson Falls, whose voice is the sweet lullaby to sleep. Mine host, Col. Stillings of the Glen Ellis, is equal to what he has done in building a first -class hotel at this point, containing sixty rooms furnished in the very best manner, while under its present management the table is excellent, and mountain trout, with which the streams abound, make one of the choice dishes always set before his guests. A firstclass livery is also connected with the house for the summit of Mt. Washington, or any other point among the mountains.

Jackson is reached most easily, and, we think, most pleasantly from Boston via steamers to Portland; thence over the Portland and Ogdensburg Railroad to Glen Station; from there three miles by stage. Jackson as a point for health is unsurpassed, and among the guests already arrived are several distinguished physicians from New Yoek and Boston. The terms for board at the different houses for the season have been reduced, and after the first of September a still greater reduction will be made. 66 Then let us raise a hymn of praise To Jackson's famous Falls, Her blooming belles, her mossy dells, Her wild, romantic walls; And far and near let people hear, all the world shall knowFor pure delight by day and night This is the place to go."

The camp at Aldershot gave the Queen's military son, the Duke of Connaught, and his bride a magnificent and highly picturesque reception last month. A curious order has recently been issued by the Governor-General of St. Petersburg. It requires every man before entering the army to procure a police certificate of good conduct.

Twenty-five lashes are henceforward to be the maximum of flogging in the British army, and this only when a soldier is on active service. The subject lately afforded a brisk debate in the House of Commons. Alboni, the once famous singer, still retains her magnificent voice. I never do anything that can tire me mentally or physically," she says, and I literally forget that I have a voice, so that when I wish to sing it is there." A man 94 years old was divorced from his third wife at Fairbury, Ill. He married her in 1850, when he was 65 and she 16.

The French navy has adopted an apparatus for distilling salt water at sea. The steam passes two cones, where it is aerated by being condensed in an air current.

July 5, 1579. 214 Jy7 Russia, a young girl acknowledged at the foot of the gibbet that her name was Nathalie Gortschakoff, and that she was a niece to the Chancellor of the Empire. She had previously refused to reveal herself, notwithstanding that she had several times been flogged with the knout in order to compel confession. Thomas Vaughn of Middleboro, England, ran through $2,500,000 in eight years, and all his effects were recently sold. The furnishing of the billiard room alone cost between $150,000 to $200,000 in the smoking room the spittoons cost $100 each; in some of the rooms the leather covers of the seats cost $90 a yard; a fireplace cost $10,000, and the owner's bedstead $7500.

At the sale in London of the alleged relics of Handel, a portrait of him by Wolfgang brought less than $75, and one of the silver commemoration medals of the Handel Festival realized $7. The anvil upon which blows are said to have suggested Handel's Harmonious Blacksmith was sold for about $62. It was bought by Maskelyne, the sleight-of-hand performer. At the burial of Mrs Howard Paul in London, a strange, elderly lady stepped out of the crowd, flung a rose into the grave, and walked rapidly away. She was a painted female of about 60 years of age.

Nobody had preciously noticed her, and she disappeared as mysteriously as she had presented herself. She looked like an actress made up for the stage, and as if she were playing a part," says one account. An edition of Uncle Tom's Cabin" is in circulation in Paris, accompanied with notes in which slavery is declared to be not contrary to natural order: and the assertion is made that most laborers would he bappier if they were slaves. Whereupon Mrs Stowe says: 6 6 He must be a bold editor who hopes to neutralize the effect of Uncle Tom's Cabin' on those laborers who ought to be slaves by a foot note." Strousberg, the Russian anu German railway magnate, who some years ago disturbed European financial circles by going into bankruptcy with colossal liabilities, and who endured a long imprisonment before his affairs were nut into a condition that entitled him to a release, has written a work on the constitutional systems of the leading countries of Europe. His observations on Russia and Nihilism are said to be of especial interest.

The question of Magyar nationality is not settled in Hungary yet. The Hungarian Parliament recently adopted a bill to make instruction in the Hungarian language compulsory in all the public schools, notwithstanding vigorous opposition on the 'part of Serbian, Croatian, German, and even Magyar delegates, who protested earnestly against disturbing the present peaceful condition of affairs. The old patriotic spirit of the Magyar empire and the aspiration for a separate national existence are not extinguished yet. The Arst kindergarten in St. Louis was established in 1873.

Now there are in the city over fifty public kindergartens, in which between 4000 and 5000 children are to be found. The kindergarten is compulsory (and no charge for school material enforced) in so far that children under seven and a half, if sent to a primary school, must spend half the school day in a kindergarten, unless they have previously been in one for two years. Already the kindergarten songs have, to a large extent, replaced the silly rigmaroles that the children used to sing when together. There are men who claim that the kindergarten will make a model city of St. Louis in the next generation.

OBITUARY. JOSHUA B. SMITH. Mr Joshua B. Smith, the weli-known caterer and friend of Sumner, died Saturday morning at his residence on Norfolk street, Cambridge, of inflammation of the stomach.

Mr Smith was born in Coatsville, Nov. 3, 1813. When quite a boy he was cared for by a wealthy Quaker lady, who gent him to the public school, where be acquired some education. Upon becoming old enough to care for himself he was the private servant of Mr John C. Craig, with whom he had travelled in the South.

In 1836 he came to Bo8ton and occupied the position of bead waiter at the Mount Washington House, South Boston, then a alar hotel, and now the Blind Asylum. Subsequently be was employed in the family of the late Robert G. Shaw, and it was while serving at Mr Shaw's table that he first met Senator Sumner, By the assistance of friends he commenced business as a caterer, in which he continued until the time of his death. He was active in the anti cause, and did much in the way of recruiting companies and regiments for the war. In October, 1867, he WAS made a Free Mason by St.

Andrew's Lodge. He took membership in the Adelphi Lodge of South Boston, in which he subsequently became Junior Warden. By virtue of this office he became a member of the Grand Lodge of Massachusetts, being the first colored man who ever held a seat in that body. In 1873 and 1874 he was a member of the Massachusetts Legislature, representing the city of Cambridge, and as Chairman of the Committee on Federal Relations worked bard to have the Legislature rescind its resolations of censure upon Sumner, and when this had been done he was made the bearer of the official message to the Senator. During his stay in Washington he was Sumner's guest, and in his will Mr Sumner him a painting entitled The Miracle of the gave Slave." At the last Legislature Mr Smith brought in 8 claim against the State for rations furnished the Webster Regiment in 1861.

It was footballed about and substantially refused, but Mr Smith always thought it just, and, as he had become somewhat in straitened circumstances, the refusal of the State to recognize it caused him considerable anxiety, and perhaps contributed to hasten his death. JAMES DINGLEY. Mr James Dingley of James Dingley wine dealers, died on Saturday. He was the son of the late ex-Alderman John T. Dingley, and leaves a wife and family.

OTHER DEATHS. Mrs Demaris Boutelle, widow of the late Col. Sylvester P. Flint of Fitchburg, died at Woburn, on July 4, at the age of 99 years. Mr Samuel Goodin of Southbridge, well known in connection with the invention of printing calico, died of heart disease on Monday last.

the Pittsburg Post, July Samuel Flack, brother of the attoruey, returned from Leadville yesterday and relates an amusing incident that came under his observation. Among the lucky ones who bave made big stakes is an Italian who daily and nightly plays his harp in a gambling saloon, and accepts the silver pieces hurled at him by the frequenters of the establishment. Not long ago some wealthy speculators concluded to purchase his claim, provided his terms would be reasonable. Imagine their surprise when informed that he would take not a cent less than $400,000. After recovering from their amazement the speculators strolled off to invest their cash in a more profitable enterprise.

They were prepared to give the son of Italy a cool $100,000, which they thought would buy him a golden harp, since be refuses to abandon that instrument, but to enrich all Italy was a matter they had not taken into consideration, AUCTION SALES.
