terrible loss Of life. ' There‘ .is a thunder-
storm or two every day, and the nights are
made lively. by the 'same agency. It was
amusing last Sunday on the’boats: that carry
New York out to get a breath of fresh air on

were seven hundred passengers, a furious
storm came up, and-every one of the seven
hundred were sea sick. The sight of seven

WALL STREET,
Not since the summer Of 1873 has there
been such a “grip"‘acqnired by the “bulls”
on the whole front ofithe Wall street stock
market, as now exists.
A great “bull” combination led by Keene,
the heavy operator from “Frisco,” Russell
Sage,.t,heman who;“_sat down" on Milwaukee
& saggsulgrgrgso basin time, D. 1?. Morgan,
Sam nuns, gosngme grid; others; assisted by
Vamfiltlltééndialw.bxéseveral bank‘s who
are intereslc‘d in floating the k in the
North West and, Rock .Islan ' . stocks
made by Tracy’s failure are now manipula-
tir g for a higher market, the controlling part
of the stocks of railroads and telegraph com-
panies representigu capital of not less then
three hundred milli'o‘ns' of dollars;
Their argument is, first, that in the general
depression-of trade—now slowly improving
——and in the liquidations which have been
going on, railroad stocks fell below their true
value; and, second, that the great crops of
the country will be carried over the roads this
fall, and the war, giving a market at good
prices, will stimulate the entirebnsiness of
the country, and the roads, having already
effected great cconOmy'in running expenses
will show a large increase in earnings, and at
paying rates for all, and investors and sp’ccu-_
lators will then buy stocks at the advanced
prices. .' . . .
There are those who do not take this rose-
ate view, and Jay Gould is one of them.
This clique have demonstrated their positive
strength by. advancing the Whole line in the
face of the rcéeiit labor strike,"and its attend:
ant destruction of railroad property, so
that during the ten days of. its continu-
once, the stocks 1~in their» hands marked in
quoted sales anjnereased valueof eight mil-
lion dollars. Jay-Gonl‘d' takes no hand on
that side at present,- but last «week, in the tel-
egraph stocks, Kee’ncnnd Gould executed a
“pas de deux" in which J. 0. showed the
most leg, and left Keene and his confrere
Sage, loaded with a few millions of the At-
lantic S: Pacific stock, and with the red ction
that ‘onr ways that are dark, and bi ' but
are vain," Wall street is surely peculiar.
Gould is playing a “lone hand”. and seems to
rely on the opportunity which comes for
breaking so long a line, and when the clique
get all they can .carry, (he will assault their
weak pOints. In thevmeantime there will be
a great advance in stocks, no matter what
follows. One house on New street is carry-
ing over three millions of New York Central
stock, which they fondly expect to sell at par
or higher, and Vanderbilt will take Care of
twenty milhons’ of the Lake Shore stock.
Wall street will againbe the great gaming
center, and this fall will see many fortun
there lost and min. '

About a year ago,>Rub’enstein, a' Polish
Jew, was arrested, tried and found guilty of
the murder of Sara Alexander, a Jewess. A
post mortem examination showed the girl to
be pregnant, and'thc theory was that there
had been criminal‘intiinpp‘y‘ between the two,
and that Rubenstein had killed her to con-
ceal it. He was sentenced to be hung, and
protesting his innocence, starved himself to
death. The case was a peculiar one, and
there were not wanting those Who believed
in his protestations of innocence. But he
died all the same, and his old father and
mother also died of grief, and the Rubenstein
family were ruined. ,And new comes a . man.
'named: Huber, who confesses: ~that 'it'Was he,
who killed. the’Alexander: girl, and that ‘Ru- 1
bcnstein was innocent. 'He gain a. full and
circumstantial account as to how he became
possesSed'of Rubenstein's knife and boots,
and is so circumstantial in his account, that
there can be but little doubt that his
statement is correct. The affair shows how
dangerous it is to trust to'de'tectives in such
cases. They have a direct interest in_ finding
some one gnilty, for unless they can :discover
a criminal; of what use are they? Add so
when they fail to find the murderer, ' they
fasten the crime upon the first person that
suspicion can be directed against, and if they
haven‘t evidence they make it. There is but
little doubt that poor Rubenstein was Worried
into his grave and that the detectives are
guilty of the death of him ahd 'his entire
family. PIETRO.
, When “Ten Thousand a Year”first appear-
ed it Was published anonymously, and Mr.
Warren, the fauthOr, uséd'bgo about among
his brethren at the bar asking them if they
had seen lt and what they thought of it.
One day warren attacked a well-known judge
With the usual question, “Have you see ‘Ten
Thousand a rear?" W'Suspectlng the secret
of the authorship, the judge said :, “Oh,g’es,
of course I have”, Somét‘hiu‘g,peeuliar in
the judge’s manner 'prompté'dearren to ask
further questiOns “I’ll tell-yen a secret,"
said the judge, “if you givc'me your word
of honor not to betray my confidence.” War-
ren gave his word with-great,‘ solemnity. ”I
am the author of ‘Ten Thousand a' Year,”
said the judge. The next day there appear-
ed a paragraph in the papers announcing that
Mr. Warren, an eminent member of the bar,
was the author of_the new novel which had
attracted so much}attention, and in the next
edition of the work the name of 'the author
appeared for. the first time on the title-page.
It is an'
(Continued frainnfirat page.)
Ne obeyed and we entered.
At the grating of the key, the prisoner had
risen, and seated On hispallet, with legs and
arms hanging, and head bowed on his breast.
looked at us with a stupefied caprcssiou.
He was a man thirty-five or thirty-eight
' years Old, with a figure somewhat below the
middle height, .but stout, and ,an apoplectic
neck sunk between broad shoulders. He was
ugly, his face had been disfigured by smallpox
and his long, straight nose and retreating for-
head gave him a resemblance to the stupid
countenance of the sheep. But his blue eyes
were very handsome, and his teeth remark-
ably white. ' _
“Well, MOfiur Monistrol,” Monsieur Me-
ehinct began, “so we are in trouble.”
And as the unfortunate man made no rc-
P‘Y.— ‘ .
“I admit,” he continued, “that the situa-
tion isn’t cheerful. But if I were in your
place, I would show myself a man. I would
do myself justice, and try to prove lny inno-
cence."
“I am not innocent.”
This time there was no opporfinity for mis-
take, no room to doubt the inte igcnce of a
messenger. We heard the terrible confession
from the criminal’s own lips. ,
“What,” exclaimed Monsieur Mcchinct,
“you !n ~ . l
The man had started up on his tottering
limbs, with bloodshot eyes and foaming lips,
evidently in a fit of terrible rage. -
“Yes, it is I,” he interrupted. “I alone.
How many times must I repeat it? A magis-
trate has just'been here,l,I confessed every-
thing and Signed the confession; What do
you ask more? I know what is before me,
and I’m not afraid. _ I' killed and must be
killed. Cut my~ throat, the sooner_the bet-
ter." 1 ' 1 ' ,
Monsieur Mechinct, who was at first some-
what bewildered, quickly regained his com-
posurc,
“One moment,” said he, “people's threats
are not out like that. They must prove
that they are guilty. Then the law takes
into consideration certain errors, certain fatal-
ities, if you please, and for this very purpose
has invented extenuating circumstances.”
An inarticulate groan was Monistrol’s only
reply, and Monsieur Mechinet continued:—
“ So you bore your uncle. a terrible
_ grudge ?”
“Oh, no !”
“Then why ?” -
"To inherit his property. My business af-
fairs were involved. I needed money, my
uncle, who was very rich, refused to give me
any.” ' V
“I understand, you hoped to escape
law." _
“I hoped to do so.” ' - .
Hitherto I had been surprised at the way
in which Monsieur Mechinct conducted this"
rapid examination, now I understood it. I.
guessed what would follow, I saw {he snare
he was spreading for the prisoner.
“Another thing,” he continued abruptly;
“where did you buy' the revolver used to
commit the crime ?” .
Monistrol’s face showed no surprise.
“I’ve had it in my possession a long time,"
he answered. 1
“What did you do with it afterwards?” ,
“Threw it down on the outer boulevard."
' Very well,” said Monsieur Mechinet grave-
ly, “search shall be made, and it will imme-
diately be found.” After a moment’s silence,
he added,—
“What I can’t understand, is that you
should have let your dog follow you.”
“What—my dog—J
“Yes, Pluto—the concierge recognized it.”
Monistrol clenched his hands and opened
his lips to answer, but some sudden recollec-
tion crossed his mind, and he threw himself
back on his bed, saying in a tone of immov-
able firmness,'— . ,.
' “I have been tortured enough, you won’t
get another word out of me.”'
It was evident that it would be a Waste of
trouble to persist.
We therefore retired, and once outside on
the Quai des Orfevres, I seized Monsieur Mc-
chinct by the arm, exclaiming,—
“You heard; the unfortubate man doesn’t
even know how his uncle died. Is it possible
to have any further doubt of his innocence ?”
But the old policeman was a terrible seep-
tic.
“Who knows!" he replied. “I’ve seen fa-
mous actors in my life. But this is enough
for tc-day. I’ll call for you to eat my soup
this evening. To-morrow it will be daylight
and we shall see.”

The Legend of thegSfiar Fish.
Many, many years ago, before M world
looked as it dOes now, when the OC s were
"very large, and the dry land exceedingly
. small, it happened that high up in the heav-
ens there was great trouble and excitement
quiet and peaceable, loving one another, and
never longing for anything that was beyond
their reach; but at this time a new star was
born, and he had an entirely different nature
from all the others. He was selfish, dissatis-
fied, and altogether disagreeable.
One thing that troubled him much was thzit
he belonged to the family of the I" h. Now
you know that there are so many firs in the
heavens that they are divided into families;
there is the family of the Lion, of the Crab,
ofthe Dog, and so on; and this wretched lit-
his. family was not quite so aristocratic as
some of the others, so he fretted and fumed,
making himself and others very uncomfort-
able. ' ' ' 7 . '
His kind and peaceabIe neighbors bore with
him as long as they could, but at last he be-
came intolerable, so the Fish stars held a
meeting to see what could be done with their
unruly brOther. Theyrasked him why he
was so unhappy and cross, and he answered
that he had rather never have been born than
have had to associate with the common peo-
ple he had seen all his life. There were other
families much more aristocratic, where he
could have passed a happier hfe.
‘ His relatives were sorry to hear him talk
so, and told him that all the families in the
great heavens were equal, and that the kind
Father who placed them there would be sorry
to 'find anyone unhappy; and then the Queen
Lady of the Fish stars bade him be good and
quiet, or else he would be banished from the
beautiful blue heavens. They allowed him
a year for improvement, but there was no
change in the star’s behavior; he quarrcled as
much as ever, and made everyone most un~
happy. Then he heard. the startling news
that he was to be sent hurtling through the
air, down to the earth below him. .He beg-
ged, he pleaded, he promised to be good, but
in vain; the verdict had been passed, and
could not be recalled. '
So, on a cold and checrless night, down-
ward through the bitter air sped the wretch-
.ed star. Where he was going he knew not;
his old friends, and before him was a dark-
ness that could be felt. ,
Hark! A voice from amidst the blackness
he heard as a whisper, and it said: “ Thou
who hurt always despised the family of the
Fishes shall become one in reality 1”
And the Star fish may often be seen on sea-
slrores, among the crevices of rocks, alone and
deserted, sadly gazing upwards to its old
home and friends!

A Woman's Letter.
nv MARY AINGE DE mm.
My letter's late by one day,
But truth is, Jenny dear,
Ned Grayson came on Sunday—
It seems he’s always here.
He, and young Fred M’Kenzic,
They staid three blessed hours,
Andma‘ was in a frenzy,—
He brought some lovely flowers.
I meant to tell you, Jenny,
The news and everything,
But I find there‘isn’t any ;—
Oh, next week, Ned’s to Sing
With the Mozart Club at Irving;
I’ll manage, dear, to go,
The Fates and weather serving—
I don’t want ma to know!
Jen, lovers are a nuisance !
George brought the ring last night——
A solitaire, like Susan’s;
It gave me such a fright!
I cried and wouldn’t wear it ;
How, underneath the sun,
Do girls contrive to bear it—
This narrowing down to one ?
Poor George, the foolish fellow,
Began to storm and fling,
And turned quite green and yellow—
I hate that sort of thing.
Now, Ned is always quiet;
I think his cool,- gray eye,
Would still an Irish riot,
Or make a regiment fly.
But what’s so very funny
About him,—Ned, I mean,—
He hasn’t any money ;
I heard from Clarence Green
Just how he's situated—
Kecps books for Webb «S: Ware.
Ah, well—those things are fated!
GeOrge owns a million, square.
Yes, dear, Fate trims the corners,
Rough-hew them as we may!
We can’t go clad like mourners,
Or weep the livelong day.
But, oh, don’t breathe it, Jenny!
I’d marry Ned, you see,
Without one single penny,
If only he loved me!
Ah, well—wellL—well that’s folly,
But sometimes, Jen, I’ve thought,
He too, seemed melancholy; .
Quick glances that I’ve caught,
Looked full of speechless sadness;—
There goes a silly tear,
To blot the page—what madness! ‘
Good-bye, pet, George is here.
We dine at Ella Johnson’s.
P. S.—I must decide, .
He won't stand too much nonsense.
The crepe comes full yard wide.
Don’t get the buff, it fades so;
Have train and split up sacque,
For organdics are made so.
My heart aches. Love to Jack.

‘ COMMERCE, RELIGION, AND Wan—As a
source of strength in , commerce has
been highly esteemed by ’ many military wri-
ters; and has lately been put forward by a
high authority in commercial politics as a re- ~
serve of power equal, if not superior, to the
great armaments of continental natiOns. But
in the highly artificial condition Of. English
commerce, its absolute value maybe 5 easily
overestimated. It is a reserve of power for
war purposes, in common with all other prop-
erty belonging to the kingdom, onlyso far as
it represents salable articles. English exports
have a catain value in the World during
peace time, but declaration of war may-alter
that value considerably, and with that altera-
tion will vary thc.valuc of .all other property
in the kingdom, including labor ; but, Unfor-
‘ tunately, excluding the only articles whose
reduction would alleviate the change,namcly,
the food supplies. .
England is so precariously situated with
respect to the daily food of our population,
that the very circumstances which would
lower the value of all other property in the
country, would raise its price. Hence, al-
though Britain might be able to stand a
greater number of campaigns than any con-
tinental nation so far as absolute wealth
is concerned, it would always be with greater
discontent of the people toward the war;
and the wealth might be much depreciated in
value; for, besides the actual fluctuation due
to war, there is the artificial system of credit
by which the value of produce actually on
the high seas is discounted at once,and would
appear in the form notof hard money, but of
unsaleable stock. ’
Religion—that is to say, Christianity—has
no doubt modified the pugnacity and temper-
ed the ambition of nations, as it has bettercd
the social life of individuals. Much of this
effect is sometimes ascribed to commerce;
but commerce alone, especially under the in-
fluence of free trade, fosters self-interest. It
is by the competition for individual advance-
ment that it benefits mankind at large, and
it is, therefore, more likely to lead to dis_
putes than to heal them, unleSs checked by
true religious principles. But- the Christian
réligion, although it has been taught for
nearly two thousandycars, has, not yet so af-
fected the political actions of states as to jus-
tify any one state which desires to preserve
its independence in dispensing with armed
force. The strongest advocates of. peace do
not, indeed, propose so great a step; they al-
low that any nation blessed with independ-
"cncc must do all it can to preserve it. Some
of them go further, and distinguish between
just and unjust wars._ As _we have seen dur-
ing the last year, some peaceful,thoughtful,
and religious Englishmen have thought it
justifiable to preach a new crusade against
the Turks for the purpose, of assisting some
of their Christian subjects to liberate them-
selves frcm their yoke. But the existing
generation have neither the power nor the
authority to pronounce any. war just or un.
just; to them. war is simply the ultimate
court of appeal against what the appellants
consider unbearable wrong. To ,- each party
in any war, whatever ifs-origin, it appears
but the defense of their independence; for
the mostapparentlyjust and most purely de-
fensive war is in the end as much a struggle
for supremacy as the most ambitiously ag-
gressive one. Therefore, those who adve-
cate reduction of national armaments belOw
the standard of other. nations of equal rank,
in the fancied interests Of a pure, peaceful,
defensive attitude, are really encouraging
war by alloWing an" aggressive state to gain
“the coign of vantage," from which it will
be so much the more difiicult for the defen-
sive state to dislodge it, when compelled at
last to fight for its life. And that. is the
most peaceful system which combines with
a truly defensive attitude in polities, the
most efficient war armaments—Frazer. ..

A BENEDICTXON WITH a LImATlON.—An
officer of the navy, on board one of our ves-
sels in China, tells us this neat thing in the
way of a blessing ; ‘
Aman on board the U. S. S. Honocacy,
whose term of service had just expired, pro-
ceeded to take leave-of his late officers. Ap-
proaching the commander, he invoked‘the '
choicest blessings on his head, in a brogne '
that left no doubt as to his native sod. And
so he went from one to another with a “ God
bless ye!" or f‘May.Heaven reward ye!"
until he came opposite the lieutenant-com-
mander, who had frequently been obfiged to
suppress Pat’s love for the “ ardent ” by
stopping his leave. With a reluctant touch
of his cap, and down-cast eye, he mumbled
out, “And may God bless you too, Mister
