Much has been said of the visit to

has been fully explained, and we only

what the English, agricultural laborer
can gain by emigrating to these two

labor here. We hope he will every
where meet with welcome.

""New York, Oct. 9.
John T. Irving, the self-confessed
murderer of MrrNathani bas reached
New York from San Francisco in
charge of detectives. It is stated
that the prisoner has made another
communication which, while known
to be partly false, contains some
highly important information. One
of the detectives states that the story
as now told by Irving is different from
others as published, and he is of the
opinion thatTtBe Nathan case will
again be' revived and the work will
have to be done over again.
Many facts that have never ap
peared in print relative to the Nathan
case have been known by the officers
rigaged in, the case some time, who
were only awaiting connecting links
which would make the chain of evi

'A French 'astronomer has presented
forfhe'eOTiideration ot" the Academv
a plan' for eitabKsbing closer relations
with .Yenus. . Ho asserts that points
oi,.uifcermitten;t light have ., frequently
been .observed pn. the surface of that
planet. These ' he supposes to be a
sort' of feVblving light-houses erected
expressly to attract the att6ntibn ;of
earthly astronomers. 1 Of course; the
enusians Are aware that we will de
.yqte parti9ular care to the observa
tion of Venua during her next transit,
and will, therefore, have these revolv
ing lights trimmed and in good order.
The French 'astronomer proposes that
a similer light be established some
where on the earth's surface, so that
signals can be. exchaged with the
Venusians. 1 his is all very well, but
we ought first to know something of
our celestial neighbor s intentions in
desiring to communicate with us. , A
respectable planet like the earth can
not afford to risk its reputation by
answering every light and frivolous
planet that may assume thelibeC"
mating signals to it;

The case was a proceeding in bank

petition charged that Mrs. Goodman
was the wife of Morris Goodman, and
tnat tor several years she had been en

property, ,,J.he earnings of a wife
