The aotion for breaoh of promise of marriage brought by Miss Fortesoue, an actress, against Arthur William, Viscount Gormoyle, eldest son and heir of Earl Cairns, exJjord High Ohanoellor of England, is a remarkable one. Not a breath of soandal has ever annoyed the determined plaintiff, tho weak minded defendant, or the family of either In 1882, when Lord Garmoyle was 21, he first met Miss Fortesoue, and the acquaintance soon ripened into mutual love. The jonng lord, having just come of legal age, believed he had arrived at years of discretion so' fully that he did not to ask his respectable papabe ore entering upon an engagement of marriage withsthe young lady. At lier mother's request he informed Earl Cairns of the and here begins the chapter of what we must think inconsistent conduct on. the part of the learned and pious Conservative Lord Chancellor, whose own fortune in the world was made by the late Earl of Derby and the late Benjamin Disraeli, Earl of Beaconsfield.
The grand old gardener and his wife "or thB gardener and his grand old wife or the gardener Adam ond his wife, for Lord Tennyson altered the line many times at the suggestion of John Forster and others, Smile at the claims of long descent, in "Lady Clara Vere de Vere," and Earl Cairns, who comes himself from very recent agricultural storik, had too much sense to put on nis coat arms and pay a "belligerent visit to tho young lady's mother. The blood of the Fortesoue was as blue aa the bloo of the Garmoyle. Jjike lawyer that he is Earl Cairns perceived that the courtship was good in a 'court of equity. He made no objeotion on the ground of family, therefore, but only remarked while giving his consent that he would have preferred a daughter in law who had not appeared nipon the stage. While Lord Garmoyle does not share the puritanism of his father, and no doubtlully acoepts the lines of Pope Honor and shame from condition rise Act well your part, there all the honor lies, he requested has betrothed to abstain in future from acting any part at the theater.
Miss Fortescue, whosawbeforehBrtheprospeot'ofbe ingverysoona a countess, no longer felt tho necessity of following her profession, and, to please the Cairns family, dissuaded a younger sister from adopting that career. She could do no more, and the Earl was satisfied. He wrote her a fatherly letter and invited her to visit them in London and at their country house near Bournemouth. Other members of the Cairns family wrote affectionate letters to her, and Lord GarmoylB assured her that his father now considered that his marriage would be a wise step. On a sudden, without anything fresh happening, or the slightest previous hint, the young Viscount wrote to her on the 21st of last June breaking the call and enters upon bis duties.
But. within slK months more or loss, tbo Bev. A. takes an adjoining. parisu ana proceoas co mi up oy recruits rrom air late parish.
He personally solicits his late parishioner to corns to iim and to take pews lu hia church, and, tot tney will not do mat, at least to sustain ma worE by giving monoy to it, and paying lor seats in his church, whioh many do. It is na tural and proper for people to love and desire tho services of an old rector, and so. on tbo oc casion of all funerals and marriages, ho is oagar and ready to accept invitations to be present, and to be the oblef man, tbe chief counselor, adviser and comforter, making the rector, tho Rev. B. tako a back Best and as eist him.
The question is does this indicate a fine, brotherly Bensa ot honor Is It what is colled "cleri cal courtesy 7" la it professional 7 The medical pro resston is very sensitive as to cuoso little matters. Should the church profession be any less so But again, he constantly visits among them, and is frequently tbo guest ol leading and influential families in the parish of the Bev. struggles atonRpallently, tryiug to do an honest aud uphill work. Is this a brotherly and thing 7 Does it iiidioateafmesenm of honor, a disposition not to wound tho feelings of a brother, or to hinder lils work 7 If it does, then tbe oourse of the Bev. O.
with respect to tbe Bev. D. 4s just the reverso of title. The Bev. a venerable and great, ly beloved rector in a large city, resigned bis parish.
The Bev. a yonng man, was called to lus Tbe Bev. O. Informed bis late parlshionero that they had a reotor to whom they owed allegiance and lore, that they must look to hlra for all administrations and ministerial offices; and tbat whilo ba Bhould ba glad to know that they held a warm affeotlon for himself, they must not expect him to visit them or perform ministerial ditties for them. And when an old lady in the parlBh, on a elck bed, wanted him to visit hor and give her tho holy communion he utterly refused to do bo until tbe youuff reotor came to blm and accorded his permission ana begged him to do it.
And with the ontlro understanding that tho young rector should take the chief put of tuo ssrvico he went, gave her all spiritual advice and oomtort and then told her he could not come again, and that to future she must look to ber present rector for all spiritual ministrations. The same is the caso with tbu Bev. who has uniformly refusod to visit any parish he has resigned for ono year after his resignation, or to perform any ofilue thoretn, oven proach log, so that ho may glvo tho now iucumhaitt a chance to win the affections and confidence of his people, and then only with the cordial approbation of the rootor himself.

OUKTI8. In his new and succssuful puiuedy, RS3H PPP OO T1TT COO A R5Sq II gBPO OT AA The Democratic The Democrate of Brooklyn celebrated their presidential victory last night with an enthus Iflsm whioh no triumph could have evoked BaYe one secured after many defeats, and when oven the possibility cf saoooss seamed to hara passed away. It is now twenty eight years since the Democrats of the United States were in the position they occupy at ihe present time. The experience of tho party daring this more than quarter pf aoaatury has heen one long story of ad Torsrty, now and then, indeed, lighted up by gleams of hope, but never shone upon by the beams of assured prosperity. If, therefore, or a little while they seem to give an almost childish freedom to their emotions the more reasonable of their opponents will hardly find fault In order to make due allowance for Democratic enthusiasm at this hour it is only necessary for the Republican supporters of Blaine to reverse the situation and imagbae how they would feel for a few days, at if after such a struggle they had finaHy carried the country.
It is really one of 'the finest characteristics of our people that while the victors rejoice greatly at a time like jthis, the men defeated look ou with a good natured stoicism, full of belief that their turn to make merry will come in duo season. The Democrats, however, apart from any questions of policy at issue, have special reason for pride in the fact that tho success which has crowned thoir efforts seems to prove the essential principles of the Democracy to be indestructible. To gain a great battle is always a souroe of exultation, but to gain it un der circ*mstances which prove the cause to be worthy of the favor of honest men is by far the greater matter. This is tho Democratic caso The principles lave been thoroughly tried jo the flreB of adversity, and the result, 0 far from being a reduction of them to ashes, is that they come forth from fcho furnace purified, cleared of their dross and shining as they never didbeforo. It is, however, most fortunate for the Wholo country that to Democratic principles oa thoy now stand there is practically no op position except on the part of certain Plnto crate who are quite as hostile to the faith of Abraham Lincoln as to that of Thomas Jefferson The question with the great body of Bepublicans is not as to the righteousness of what the Democrats profess.
In tho matter of belief nine tenths of Kepublicans are Democrats also, and would with justice resent as an insuH any imputation upon their attachment to the rule of the people, according to the Constitution as it Btands against all opponents. Tha real question is whether the Democratic party will live up to its own creed. If it will the country must prosper. If it proves faithful every honest, self supporting American, of Whatever party, will have reason to rejoice. On the other hand, should it not, there fe the same weapon with which to strike H.
down under which the Bopublicans have fallen. For the time being the country wearied and sickened by the abuses committed in the Kepnblioan name has resolved to give the Democracy a triaJ. This in substance is the meaning of the eleotion and is At least one Of flie reasons why Republicans, who ask nothing more at the hands of Government than justice and intelligent administration can afford to look on with good nature while their neighbors of the opposite persuasion are giving way to the emotionswhich Republicans felt when triumph at the polls was a novelty to them. Tho great feature of the meeting at the Rink last night was, of course, the speech by Mr. Hendricks, the Vice President elect.
To say that it was worthy of the occasion will, we are suie, be regarded as mild praise by all who had the pleasure of hearing it. Admirable in tone, clear and matter of fact in statement, it bore abundant evidence that what Cleveland tad Hendricks stood for when they were seok ng the suffrages of their countrymen they Btand for now that these suffrages havo been Bocurerl. What in particular will not escape attention is the full, hearty thoroughgoing recognition by Mr. Hendricks, speaTsingforihe Democracy of what is due to the Independent' It isnot uncommon in politicsfor party men to shower praises and pledges before jdtction on the heads of those who can help them and conveniently to forget every pledge find promise when the offices have been secured. Thomas A.
Hendricks made it plain last night that he, for one Democrat at least, 1b not to be put in the category of thoBe who do not mean to redeem thoir word, and "the cheers of the vast audience whenever the services of the Independent Republicans to the country were mentioned showed that 1 the great body of tho Democracy is no loss resolved to aot with scrupulous honor toward its chief ally. Mr. Hendricks, it will be seen, Bpokoof civil service reform, administrative reform, the tariff, the financial question, the merchant marine and cognate subjects in terms whioh admit of no misunderstanding. In particular, tho scornful manner in which he threw baok the imputation that the oolored people would not bo protected in thoir rights by the incoming Administration will attract attention. No friend of the colored race ever spoken in tones breathing I more resolute determination to defend them in every prerogative which theirs under the laws and Constitution of 4ho United States.
Wo shall leave it to Republicans who supported Mr. Blaine to judge, In She light of this declaration, what manner of man he was who made haste upon tho heels of his own defeat to disturb tho colored people pf the country by insinuating that under Cleveland and Hendricks thoy might again be reduced to bondage. In fine, we feel confident that if the Administration be shaped according to the speeoh of the Vice President elect, delivered last night, there will bo satisfaction given not only to every Democrat and Republican who voted for it, but coupled with such satisfae tion'will be secured the approval of millions who have hitherto distrusted the Democracy, and for the country as a whole a degree of prosperity such as wo have not known in many years.

Two yonng and pretty girls, who described themselves as Catharine Bmith, 17 years, of age, and Lizzio Seefeld. same age, were arrested by Officer Ger keu, of tha Seventh Preciuot, Greeupoint, yesterday morning, on complaint of Mrs.
Martha Crosby, of IDS ffava itreet, Greenpoint, who accused Lizzie Beefeld ot entering her opattmonts, and JttiiarIno 8mith wit being an accomplice. It appears that about half past ten p'clook, yeBterday morning, both glrla called at 197 Java street, and inquired if a Mrs. Gray, resided there, ttelng.answered in the negative they left and were seen going toward Manhattan avenue. half later Mrs. Crosby, who had notlosd the girls a short fore ringing the bell of her next door neighbor, went Into the area way for aisouttle of coal.
She elosed the front door for a momont, but did not bolt It as usual, In order to return and refill tho scuttle. When she again went into the area the door was wide open. Bhs paid no attention to It, thinking that a sudden guBt of wtnd bad blown it open, A few moments later she had occasion to go upstairs for a moment. Whtn she reaohed tho head of the stairs aha discovered the ttlrl who had been at her cart door neighbor's standing in tbe middle of the baok parlor, Being alone she did not grapple with the Intruder, but rushed stairs anil out into the street. She noticed the girl's oompanlcm standing short distance from the Jhouso apparently waiting for her return.
A gentleman passing on the opposite side of the street was hailed by Mrs. Orosbjr aud told of the affair. Accompanied by him she went to the parlor, but the girl nan disappeared. They made a search and found nor standing in tbe alley way door leading into the kitchen. When the girl found that she had been discovered she "innocently asked If a Mrs.
Thompson resided in the house, and ssid that aha wish, ed to sea her upon urgent business. 'This did not satisfy Mrs. Crosby, and sho accused tha girl of being a thief. In an insolent manner she replied "Don't you call me a thiafd yon, or I'll smash you." She was told to submit to arrest quietly, aud if not force would be used. Mrs.
immediately went in search of "a policeman while tbe stranger detained the girl. When the offloer arrived tbe girl quietly submitted to arrest. Her companion had escaped in the meantime and was teen going toward Manhattan avenue. While the officer was escorting his prisoner to the station bouse, accompanied by tho gentleman and Mrs. Crosby, the latter lady discovered Catharine Smith gazing into a Jewelry store on the corner of Kent street and Manhattan avenue, sud informed the officer.
He told tbe gentleman to hold his prisoner until he captured her accomplice. In going across tha street the girl, notibing that she was discovered, darted down Kent street at a lively gait with the officer at ber heels. She was fleet ran. nor and it was not until Franklin street and Green point avenue was reached that the officer captured her. She became abusive and Indignantly said that It was an outrage to arrest a respeotable girl who had done nothing wrong.
She was talon toithsistattpn house, whither the other girl bad preceded her. Their pedigrees were taken by tbe sergeant, and In reply to a question they said that they were orphans. On being searched a lot of pawn tloketa wore found 'In thoir pockets, which represented a silk dress, suits of clothes and jewelry, and one had a pooketbook oontsinlug $2.55 and the other $5.75. They were locked up. Two officers were Dispatched to New York and sucoeoded in finding addreBS given by the girls.

She was persistent, "however, and every Saturday night would give ma hor whole wages. Thl6 girl, Smith, was also employed in the Bame factory, but of her I do not know any more than that her parents are dead.

Suoervisor Piaott offered a resolu tion to the effect the plan be adopted, and that a contract bo made with the designer for making drawings and Boperintending the erection of the building. If this resolution should tako effect the county would be finally committed. Full discussion is so obviously proper in such a case that the refusal of "an opportunity for it at once xcites suspicion.
Although Supervisor Boasley asked for delay, for the reason among others that three Supervisors and Mayor Low were absent, and although Supervisors Myers and Willis seoonded the suggestion with Btrong arguments, a motion to lay the resolution on the table for one week was lost by a vote of 8 to 20, Bnd the resolution itself was adopted by a vote of 21 to 7. The division list printed in the Eiora'a report should be examined by taxpayers and voters. Instead of a good plan aiid a jgood architect thoy must bo father doubtful ones that cannot boar the examination involved in a week's postponement.

Calming: tbc Fears of Mr. Blalue's Colored Victims. Deeper with every day grows the satisfaction of the American people with the isBue of the recent contest, for those who declined to put away thoir idol in the heat of the campaign aro beginning Tealize the influences that they wero strengthening in their Bupport of Mr. Blaine and the venomous character of the candidate whom for the third time they refused to make President.
As the animosities subside and cool reason takes the place of overheated party loyalty our friends who were lately the enemy will more and more cheerfully acquiesce in tho popular verdict and, gratified with the gallant fight they made for an unworthy leader, confess what is true, that their own chiv alry idealized an impostor and endowed. him with qualities that existed in them, not in him. It was in such a spirit of devotion that the adherents of the Stnarts held firmly by a cause that was noble in its friends but utterly detestable in the house that represented it. To this exposure of his own abom niablo character Mr. Blaine is recklessly contributing whenever opportunity offers, and is doing more to reconcile the men Of the Republican party wlio supported, him with the Independents who saw through him and rejected him than tho most oordial overtures could accomplish.
In nothing has he exposed his recklessness and hopeless lack of principle more foolishly than in his attempt to inflame the colored people of the Southern States against their white fellow citizens. To his agents during the campaign, to his own poisoned tongue since his defeat the unthinking colored people owe the anxiety and apprehension thoy have felt since the restoration of the Democracy to power. The assurance that Governor Cleveland's, election meant the re establishment of slavery was a poor campaign lie circulated by venal politicians without success so far as the object of provoking riots was concerned. Even the negroeB treated this effort with contempt. But sinco tho rattlesnake politician of Maine turned on them to infect them to madness with hie own venom, it seems, the fear has taken hold of not a few of them.
What the poor creatures need in this cruel plight is a soothing assurance from Democratic authority, and io this end the calm statement of the President elect is wisely brought to their attention. Of course no reasonable man among them has given way to any fear at all on the contrary, the more enlightened colored people havo already discovered that the restoration of prosperity to tho South includes themselves, and that they as c' izens will have their full share in the general improvement of business. Had they understood at the outset tho utter inability of this human orotalus to spoak tho truth they would not havo been so alarmed at a danger that existed only in his false utter ances. An Opinion About the obt Amendment. Tho Board of Supervisors is graduaHy SQ curing a large and curious collection of "opinions." Tho latest contribution to the grotesque assortment was inade yoBterday by one of the greht body of "legal advisers of tho Board.
Mr. William G. Cook was requested to report as to the effect upon Kings County of tho recent amendment to tho constitution." Th5 request raised several questions, but counsel chose to confine his attention to one of them and certainly, if the astonishing conclusion which he has reaohed and announces in half a dozen lines is correot, it is hardly worth while to consider other aspects of tho case. The amendment is in these "words No oonntytontainiDg a Trtty of over 100,000 inhabitants, or any such city, stiaU ba allowed to bcoomo indebted for any pnrposo or in iray manner to an amount which, including existlngindebtedneas, shaU exceed 10 por contum of tbo assessed valuation of tbo real estate of such oounty or city subject to taxation. Tho meaning of this provision ought to be clear to overy human being.
The Legislature, in submitting the amendment, and the voters in ratifying it, had in view the plain and single object of saving the peoplo from the further accumulation of local debt, the burden of which has borne heavily upon the taxpayers for years. It seemed to the Legislature that its purpose could be effectually accomplished in no way other than by constitutionally fixing a precise limit beyond which indebtedness should not extend. It was therefore agreed that in cities containing more than 100,000 inhabitants the amount should not exceed ten per cent, of tho valuation of the real estate therein. It occurred to the framers of the amendment that such a limitation might be evaded by the issue of bonds in excess of the amount by the authorities of the county in "which the city was" situated. Manifestly the taxpayer would suffer the same from the burden of debt exceeding 10 per cent, of the value of the real Btate, whether it was incurred by his city or hia county.
Tho draftsmen of the amendment therefore took pains to provide that this limit should surpassed by neither county nor city. Mr. Cook, however, dissents. "A careful reading of the amendment," he says, has left no doubt in his mind that the county may, as a body cor norate. without reference to indebtedness of the city, incur debt on its own account to an amount equal to the 10 per cent, mentioned in the constitution." If the courts should acoept this amazing conclusion the amendment would not be worth the paper it is written on.
Rather it would bo worse than worthless, because where the bulk of county taxes is paid by the city taxpayers as in Brooklyn or in New York, where the City and County boundaries are identical the operation of the amendment would be. instead of limiting indebtedness to ten per cent to authorize its increase to nearly or quite twenty per cent. It is simply monstrous to assume that the Legislature or the people had such an intention. Tn construing organic or statutory laws the courts, aim to give effect to the intent of their makers, and there is ho doubt of that in this cose. Some practical embarrassment may arise in determining what Rharo of the 10 per cent, falls to the city and what to tho county but neither one nor tho other, nor both, can exceed, it unless the amendment is to fail.
So some embarrassment moy arise if the corporation coun Bfil. niter a careful readinr of tho amend ment, should think differently about it from Hib Snnervisors' counsel, as be probably will, and give some little space to informing the Mnvor of his mental processes. Sucli alarm. ing conflicts of opinion will bo quite likely to happen until all Kings County becotaes Brooklyn City, or bo long as tho Supervisors incline to an oxtravagant indulgenco in the luxnry of legal talent."

A Newly tkUeovenea Inland Sea. In the realm of celestial geography which ive call astronomy the discovery of so minute an object as a new planetoid circling between orbits of Mars and Jupiter is deemed of sufficient importance to warrant the transmission of the news by cable throughout the oiv dlized world. In this same field of discovery we have progressed so fast and so surely ithat the visible fiveTeighths of the mooh'B surface iB as accurately mapped out aB the.
continent of "Europe, while of the distant world that glows with varying luster as the "distance between us increases and diminishes we have a better knowledge in point of outline of its seas and continents than we possess of our own sphere. The prqpositionithat within a few hundred miles of tbe metropolis of the! American Continent was to be found an un tnown inland sea, as large as any iwith which we are acquainted, and hundreds of miles away to the northeast, twould in view of our knowledge of our sister worlds seem unworthy of serious attention. And yet, it beyond even the almost unknown lake.Mistassini, some SOOmiles from Quebec, JiBs'stfll another vast bpdy of water of tremendous depth, and, though not yet evenroughly measured, believed to equal in dimensions Lake Superior. The existence of this noble sheet of water in what is called the Northeast Territory has for some time "been suspected. It is even asserted that the Hudson Bay Company has heen aware of it from time immemorial, but has, for purposes of its own, gnarded its se Dret vigilantly, 'though with what advantage to itself is not clear.
At all events the Geographical Society of Quebeo equipped and Bent out am expedition led by experienced men last June beyond the known limits of the survey, as a preliminary movement. Stores for nearly two years werB conveyed in canoes to a point agreed upon, and then the expedi tion'proceeded to make investigations on its own account. It returned a few days ago with the report whioh has bo startled thereoieatifio world. The information obtained is that after crossing the slight summit whioh divides the Hudson Bay and Saguenay systems the expedition began to descend the Kupert Kiver, which at once widened into a great lake. Up this body of freBh water the party traveled for 120 miles without reaohing the boundary of the lake.
Indeed, from the eon formation of the shore it was evident that they were at least as far from the northeastern end of the lake as from the river, with tbe probabilities all in favor of a much greater area. The water was very deep, possessed all the characteristics of the great lake system, teeming with the varieties of fish found in Lakes and Superior, namely, the great lake trout, white fish and a fresh water cousin of the cod. The party enoountered many islands, some of them of great beauty, and indeed were weather bound among them lit fimes, ft heavy sea Tolling in npon them. To persons who are unacquainted with the great lakes the rapidity with which a heavy eea rises in a storm would cause astonishment. By these and other phenomena, the great depth of the water at a distance from shore and the very gradual slope of the land, it is almost certain that the estimated dimensions of this inland sea have not been exaggerated.
That which, will most immediately impress the reader is the disclosure of the enormous size the "Northern portion of the continent, in which such a giant sea has lain concealed in spite Of the rapidly increasing population, the adventurous spirit of the age and the facilities for exploration. A few months ago an explorer on the Western Coast discovered two great unknown rivers pouring into tho Pacific, one of which is comparable with the Mississippi) and now toward the eastern extremity we find an unsuspootad sea. What JieB between them is yet a matter of doubt and mystery. It may be that northerly and westerly from there Hies yet another lake, or porhapB a range of lofty mountains, from whosB snow clad summits roll down those icy blasts that make the blizzard of the Northwest and empurple our ears and noses with the too familiar cold waves of Winter. With this enormous tract of country to explore perhaps wo can afford, to let Europe find her own Stanleys to disclose the Congos of the Dork Continent and reserve our adventurous spirits' for the settlement of the questions that lie between the northerly zone of civilization and the frozen regions which explorers penetrate but to die.

The Herald this morning relates the singular histoiy of the tugboat Niagara, whioh has gone to the bottom five times and is still as good a tugboat as ever. Such an example of cheerful fortitude and endurance may be commanded to Mr. Blaine. He has gone to bottom but once, and yet is all broken np by it. It appears from the scratched Blaine ballots foundin the'boxes after election that Mr.
Henry Cabot Lodge, of Massachusetts, was defeated for Congress, not by the treason of the Mugwumps, but by the defection of Blaiho Ke publioana. There is nothing surprising in the discovery. Since 1872 the Half Breeds, or Blaineites, have at sundry times "kicked" with a vigor that threatened to dislocate their joints. They are because this year it was the Stalwarts' turn to kick.

It was connted on by some as certain that as soon aa the association should meet a large number would be proscribed.
These anticipations have not been justified.

It was pretty i well understood, ho said, that association had re i ceived notioe to remove the wigwam, and desist from treapaaiing on the ground which it occupies. The owner, it appeared, wanted the lot for his own probably desiring to build a house on it. The question therofora was whether it would be best to remove tbe structure to some other location, sell it, or otherwise dispose it Mr.

The annual convention of the National League, which began on Wednesday at the Fifth Avenue Hotol, in New York, ended yesterday evening after a two days' session, during which somo Important legislation in the interest of the professional fraternity was TiccompllBbod.
The delegates present were as follows (Henry T. Root and J. E. Allen, of Providence; A. H.

Applications from players expelled for breaking the League reserve rulo snd going to tho Union Association wore then mc tod upon, aud the decision as regards one case was made applicable to all, and the oaso taken up wss that In which F. L. Bhaw, formerly ohango pltchor in tbe Chicago Club and afterward in the Detroit which olub be deserted for the Union Club, of Boston was concerned, the resolution adopted In his case is as olio vb L. Shaw and Beveral other players, who have been Bisqnallne'd for deserting League clubs while under the reserve rule, have appllod for reinstatement bo tbat they may be made eligible to engage with national agreement clubs Whereas, This League will never consent to the reinstatement of any player who has deserted or may hereafter desert any club identified with tlii9 League while uudor contract or bold by the reserve rule therefore, bolt Rtsolved, That the said applications are denied. The most Important work done was the revision of the playing rules, and the ohanges.mado were in sub stanoe as follows The principal amendment made was lhat affecting tho rule govorning the delivery or the ball to tbe bat, and after a lengthy discusBlou of the subject tbo convention found a solution of the problem in the re enactment of tbo rule of twenty years ago, except tbat with that rule thoy allow the overhand throw.
ThB rule in voguo in 1801 stated tbat wheneverltho pitcher moves with the apparont purpose or pretonslon of delivering tho ball to the bat he shall so deliver it, and hemnst not have either foot off the ground at the time of delivering the ball." The new rule or the 'League, however, differs from this wording, as it reads as follows fair ball is a ball dettvered by tbe.pllcher while standing wholly within tbe'lteBs ol his position, and with both feet touching the ground while making any one of the series of motions he is accustomed to make In delivering the 'ball to the bat." This tsn radical change la the nils, and its advan. .1 1 tk. riat whlla Ilia HU of lowed to deliver the' ball either by a pitch, a toss, a jerK on an unasraana or overnana vurow, vijo apoeu of bis delivery iB materially checked by tbo fact that be cannot make any ne 6f tbe forward stepsiby which swift pitchers are enabled to glve a tgrealer impetus to the speed of the ball than is possible whilo simply standing atilL Under this new rule pitchers will be forced to rely mainly on strategic skill in delivery for success in pltobing, while mere pace is forced to occupy a secondary place in their work. This will not affect Badbonrne ox Corcoran or any of tho strategic class of pitohers; but itwJll be a great detriment to tho "Whitney class of mere swift pitchers. Tbe new rnle entirely relieves the umpire from his almost impossible duty of keeping the Arm below, the shoulder in present.
Ing the overhand throw. The other changes in 4he rules were as follows Section 2 of rule 3 was changed so as to substitute bard white rubber as the material for tbe borne base in the place of white marble. Eule 9 was amended so as to require two benches in nlaceof one for the players. Bule 10 was changed ao as to give the batsman greater freedom of movement in batting, his position being enlarged from a width of three feet to four Xeet. six iuchea, the lino nearest the home base to more than sis inches distant tram the corner ot the base.
Bule 14 was changed so as to allow the handle of the bat to be wound round with twine eighteen inches from the handle end. The batsman, too, is permitted to make a flat face to tbe 'bat on one side of It to tbo depth df half sn iucb. ThB amendment to rule 39, section 1, is important, as It puts ft slop to flio violaUou of tbe rule ajalcet balking indulged in last season. The new rulo reads "A balk is made whenever the pitcher, when about to deliver the ball to.tlio bat, while standing within tbo innnn nf his position, makes any one of tbe series of mo tions be habitually makes In so delivering the ball and ithen failB to deliver tho'ball to tho bat." The rulojgoverningioi feiloa games as also rule 20 of the playing rules was so amended that, in caso a club 'forfeits a gams uy xcoouu ui viuiaiuu ui a iiiaiug tho club at fault incurs a penalty of 300. Tho "tie" games hereafter aro to be iuoluded In the player's averages, aud the official scorers of tho clubs will be notified to forward the eauie to the secretary.
An amendment to rule OS, reforming tho special ground rules, puts a atop to home ruuB made on balls bit over fonccs of small uiclosures, as only two bases are to be allowed in future for Buy fair ball hit over a fence distant from the hom*o vlate less than 210 feet. The scoring rules werq reworded, so as to exclude from tho*rror coluran In the score all errors except those known as fielding orrors, leaving "to tho summary" all errors known under the had of battery orrors, such passed, called or wild pitched balls. Tho rate prohibiting tho foul bound catch was retained, as also the rule of six called bulls giving a base. The pitcher is still permitted to inako the ororhsud throw to tho bat.

Last Tuesday morning, for the first time, GeorgeX'Soney sot foot on tho soil of Georgia. And yet priorito that'time ho given oat of his private purse nearly half a million dollars for the building up of the educational institutions of this State. When Mr. Senoy was in the height of wealth and power his lavish benefactions were never alluded to but in terms of liveliest gratitude. There were few who would not baye pressed forward to have shaken his band and expressed sincere thanks lor all ho 'hod done for our native State.
It would be more than disgraceful if slnoe the chBngo in Mr. Sonar's fortunes tuero shonld bothe slightest iBbate inent in our.foeling toward him. monuments of lils generosity stand Among lis. xne motive or iis givtOg.iB. iinobsqgesble.
noWrs'ho has been, one ox ine most aumiraoie jimiauiuropisu oi uuruay unostantatlons, wise, slncere and prompt. His lack df the power to glvo should 4at increase and lympathy Hts molives 'have 1 ways inspired. We have felt much Intaeut ill Mr, Senay bacausa flf bis uuBollclted and lavish kindneea to Georgia enterprises. Wo have read olosely all that has been written about the failure of hia bank and the wreck of his Wo have inquired belowithe surfaoe of the publio prints. It is but firm conviction that Mr.
Sonoyatands to day, tho 'soopogoat of ather.Tnon, and that ho aoffers through the oi others. Ho has paid the penalty of a dazzting success, and stands as the conspiouous figure of failnres, in whioh he played really but small part, and In whioh his counsels were isregarded. Whetbsr all this will be uncovered in the future, only the future oan disclose. One thing Is certain. Mr.
Senoy will re establish Himself in the oonfidence of those who do not know him, as firmly as he now.standB in tbe confi'donce of thoso who know him best. He willTebnild his fortunes, and he will than recall the adulation of many who now pass 'him by. It appears that he depends largely for bis future on his investment'in the East Tonncauoo and Virginia system, much of whioh rests.on 'Georgia. It will be happy, indeed, if tho rapid growth and tbsTior dlal patronage of this State, that he has helped so large lv and of which he has known so little, should ba the ibasts on which his nowtfortune shall' be built. At all events, Mr.
Senay is heartily welcomed to Georgia. He will find 'hero thousands of strangers who are his rianas from thousands of boarts, way apart from his life and his knowledge, prayers will go up for his happiness lus prosperity.

He professed unchanged affection, but said that his friends" were set against the marriage. Who were "the friends, if not the Earl him eelf and his wife and daughters and younger Bons. One of his daughters is married to the preacher at a Ohapel of Ease one of those Lady Whittlesea's chapels where Thackeray found his Rev. Charles Honeyman for whom the noble Earl two years ago earnestly begged tho University of Dublin for ihe degree of honorary of on the ground that he had been in the army and had not received a university education. The Earl is Chancel lor of Dublin University where he himself graduated with high honors, bnt even his posi tion as their Chancellor and as twice Lord High Chancellor of England could not induce the Provost and Fellows to accede to his request.
It is not likely that the minister of Berke ley Chapel, Mayf air, would stand upon dignity so much as to object as son in law to Miss Fortescue as daughter in law to the Earl. The I family circle of objectors narrows itself there fore, to Earl Cairns himself who haB honor ably worked in one profession as "Miss For tosoue was working in another. A number of distinguished members of the legal profession have marriedactresses and in the pres ent condition of the British aristooraoy it is. rather for an actress to consider whether she will not lose caste by ninrrying a lord than for a lord to be ashamed of marrying an ao tress. Miss Fortescue is entitled, at any rate, to the thanks of her profession for refusing the comfortable sum of ten thousand pounds, of $50,000, and getting rid at the same time of a booby who is the son of a Pharisaical parvenu.
The profession of Shakspeare is surely as respectable as that of Lord Baoon. The Last JFroceedl.njT Under tbe Arrears Settlement. The last of the proceedings in the ment of the arrears business which has engaged public and official attention is the sale of the property of owners who, after ample time and notice, have failed to pay their accumulated taxes. The first salo of the kind will occur on the 3rd of December at the Municipal Building. It is bo long since such a thing happened that it is in the nature of a novelty.
It will be different in many respects from the old time auctions. These were attended hy only two or three persons because they were understood to be purely speculative, and the speculation wa? in rather ill odor. It was not believed that a tax lease would "hold water" and those who took such conveyances were understood to hold them only for the purpose of squeezing as much money aa possible out of embarrassed owners. This is all changed. The city will give a good title, and buyers may to the sale as freely and confidently as into the open market.
When he arrears problem is finally solved those concerned in its solution will be entitled to publio The Assessors may fairly claim more than thanks. Their labors in the matter have been considerable. The extra allowance of $500 whioh waa at proposed is manifestly inadequate, and thoy ought to be fairly paid for the actual work they have done. AutUora an Elocntiontatea Since the character of the theater has "undergone a ohange whioh renders it no longer at tractive to very many persons, it was only a question of time when a new form of popular entertainment would be developed to meet tho general demand. What it would be it was not easy to foresee, but it ap pears from the great success that a new departure, combining literature with i the Lyceum, has met with that we have at length found the substitute for or complement of the drama.
It in effeot, a condensation of dramatic efforts in readings, where the author presents his own characters to an audience, illustrating his subject with various side lights, such as a song or a dialect, and thus vividly picturing the scenes be projects with local color. This is the form of entertainment that Mr. Clemens and Oable are engaged in presenting and it must be confessed that they have leaped into, favor at a bound. It was originally intended, we believe, that the party should be larger, but experiment has shown that two such gentlemen as the humorous Mark Twain and the Southern novelist are as much as the untutored public can stand at present. The Mammoth Combination of Intellect which some literary Hayerly of the future will surely form sooner or later is unnecessary for the' present.
The public is greatly the by this novelty. We may add that the author himself is to be congratulated upon it For the thought that makes a volume is here exploited in two ways. The elocutionary art supplements the printer's, and so tho writer need no longer remain poor, or accept a miserable fraotion of the reward, while some person of nDt a tenth of his talent dramatizes his work, and a Boore of others take his earnings for illustrating it in action. Hitherto the novelist has, with some show of reason, complained of the utter inadequacy of his profits. Mr.
Mark Twain and Mr. George Oablo Jiave hit upon the cure for hia woo. Yet another and perhaps more important result of this combination of two arts suggests iteolf. The novelist, when he has finished his work and flcmFumed the meager proceeds, olongex ret(rfn im desk imfl BE maylet his mind lie faJow lor une'untt rjftrtut uuoj Tbc Hall of Records. The necessity for a new "building for the safe keeping of the public records of the county is admitted.
The present quarters are bo contracted that business cannot be transacted conveniently and expeditiously. Registered evidence affecting millions of dollars worth of property is constantly exposed to more or less danger of destruction. But, pressing as is the need, it would be better to wait awhile longer than to undertake a work which would be unsatisfactory in its results or disgraceful in its methods. The county should avoid both an architectural botch and a pecuniary job. The former may be best exposed by experts, but a suspicion of the latter will at once occur to the intelligent layman from the report of yesterday's pro oeodings of the Supervisors.
As usual, premiums for plans were offered some time ago. The committee having charge of tho subject recoinmendod.an award of the first of the fivo prizeB to Plan No. 2, with the concurrence of tho professional gentleman vrhose advice the committee secured Mr. Harrison. Without questioning Henry.
this architect's judgment as to the suporior attractiveness of the favored design, it may be said, as the Eagle pointed out at the time, that the certificate of tho fireproof feature of the proposed building might have been clearor 4nd more comprehensive. But, whatover may be the' merits of a particular plan, it should not be adopted without thorough consideration. It is well enough to award a premium to the designer on the ground that his plan is 'better than any other one submitted. It is quite anothor and a serious matter to commit the county to the execution of' the design, pucli a ilung.should not bo.donoas of course mp.rn recommendation of a com i Tao liarun. uiuble fur light buini Mm i.
