President Grant and Mr. (jorbin. The
Washington coirespondent of the N. V,
lribune makes tho following nuiheulic
statement in regard to the relations of
these gentlemen.
The interest exhibited in thenttempt to
connect President Grant with Fiek, Gould
and Cm bin, in the gold conspiracy, has
somewhat subsided, hut it at ill remains
the subject of general comment. It bus
been ascertained that the only basis for
the alleged complicity of the President is
the fact that when he sold his house in
this city to Gen. Sherman, he gave Airs.
) '.'.'d. 1 1 of the proceeds. Co Inn was
lure nt the lime on his wedding trip, and
Mis. Gritnt placed the money in his
hands to he invested in building lots in
the suburbs of New York city. This is
the only .money transaction that has trans
pin d between lliein since I'lesidcill Gr.uit
Wits inaugurated, und it u ill vL y be
tin- last, as tin-President dm s not heeiuiie
to declare that in the future he will have
no social communication whatever. It is
probable that Col bin used (hemor.ej tlm-.

and Gould with Hie belief lhat he was ac-
("ting as Mrs. Grunt's broker .i ' lief

order was issued to sell Government gold
and Coili u's transactions were discover

A SHAM DUEL.
There ''has been for some-lime n slight
misunderstanding between a certain M.
D , and njviiight of the goose, and last
Tuesday a challenge was sent by the M.
D. and immediately accepted. Seconds
were choseu ami weapons procured, which
were nn old musket and a cigar-case (in
tended to represent a pistol ) The gen
tlemen, with their friends, repaired to a
secluded spot near the heights, and the
principals drew for the choice of weapons,
and the M. D. drew the musket. The
ground was stepped off, the combatants
placed in position, and the word given to
fire. A tremendous explosion of1 the old
musket followed, and tho tailor rolled over
on tho ground, gave a few frantic kicks,
and all was over with him..
The Doctor's second congratulated him
on having killed his man, and they left
the field, and coming to town', repaired to
a gentleman's store to talk (he matter
over, and while the M. D. was telling to
several gehlTetnefi fcriw he had laid bisnrr
tagonist out and left him on the field dead
in walked Bullock nlivo and without a
scratch. It was then that the Doctor re
alized that be had been made the victim
of a practical joke, and found that he had
fired a blank cartridge at a man who was
armed with a cigar-case.

TIIE GENTLE BOY THAT GIIEW
TO BE A GENTLEMAN.
"You sec I am n gentleman !" said Will
Thompson. "I will not lake Hit insult. "
And the little follow stiutieil up and down
in a rage. He had beep throwing stones
at i'i ter.'ones, and lie -thought that h:s
.rrtg-cr pinved him to he n gentleman:
"If you want to be a gentleman,' I
should think you would be a little boy
first, " said his teacher. "Gentlemen do
no! iIiioh- sloni s.it t heir neighbors Peter
Jones diil not ih'iiw stone nt yon, mid I
think he is much the more likely to prove
a gentleman."
'But he's got patches on his knees,"
said Will.
"Bad pantaloons don't keep a boy from
being a gentleman," said the teacher,
"but a bail temper does. Now, William,
if you want to be a gentleman you mu t
be a gentle boy." '
A Ii il. further on the teacher met little
Peter Jones. Some stones had bit- him,
and Ii" win hint by them.
"Wi li, Peter, vt Inn's i he mutter bet ween
you and Will this morning I" asked his
teacher.
"I ways throwing a ball at one of the
boys in play, sir, and it mi'sed him and
hit Will Till mpson's dog."
"Why did you not throw i. back?
" Because, sir, my moi'ter says to be a
gentleman, 1 must be a gentle boy, and I
phe cm)tetioff a lifts
nuigbt it best lo keep out ol his way tut
Theteaclier walked on, nfter praising
Peter's conduct, but kept the hoys in his
mind, and he lived to see Will Thompson
a rowdy, and Peter Jones a gentleman,
loved and respected by all. Remember,
a geiitla boy makes a gentleman.

them have their own cathedrals, which
are the centres of dioceasan unity, as in
Maine, Western New York, Illinois, Iowa,
Indiana, Minnesota, Nebraska, California,
Georgia, Tennessee, and Flordia. The

of the Greet "and" Anglican Churches.

"My young friend, I observed thnt you
have used several French expressions in
your article. I think if you will study
the English Innguige. that you will find
it capable of expressing all the ideas you
may have. I have always found it so,
and in all that I have written I do not re
call an instance where I was tempted to
use a foreign word, but that, on searching
I found a better one in my oin language.

: might be ventured, such a galaxy of beauty

' The best lime to observe the many beauties
' in this field nf decoration is at night with
the aid furnished from (he full radiance
of the many blazing candelabra. The
figures are brought out in happier relief
and show with u lustre denied them by
daylight.
j Altogether the temple of Emanuel is
a feature in itself, and has no parallel.
Its exterior is an experiment in architec
ture ottentimes before attempted but only
! in this instance realized as a success. Its
interior decoration, without being quite ae
great a novelty, has so many points of
.originality that it fairly divides the palm
, of interest with-the architectural design,
, It may be added in conclusion, that the

THE PAPACY.
A Paris paper, Im Liberie, gives a cur
ious sketch nf the individuals who have
filled the Holy See since its inauguration
I by St. Peteie. No throne in Europe fur
nishes so many violent and bloody deaths.
1'rom St. Petkb to Pics IX. there
have been 293 Popes. Of these 31 are
considered anti-Popes, or usurpers, in the
same sense as the Bourbons regard Nap
oleon as an intruder. 0' the 262 legiti
m tie Popes, 29 met violent deaths under
ciicumstances that entitled them to the
repute of martyrs ; the other 35 also met
violent deaths : 18 poisoned, 4 assassinated
and 13 by various means. Stephen was
strangled ; Leo III. and John XIV. were
mutilated, and the latter starved to death,
as also Gregokt XVI.; Luke was stoned,
Greookt VII. was confined in an iron
cape; Celestix V. was ended by a nail
driven into his temple ; BomfacE VIII.
committed suicide ; Clement V. was
burnt on his sick bed ; Unn,N VI. waa
kilied by a fall from his horse; Pu s VI.
died from erotic excess.
Sixty-four Popes then died by extraordi
nary means, without counting 20 others,
who died suddenly, from chagrin, caused
by reverses.
Twenty-six Popes have been deposed or
exiled, besides the Popes at Avignon.
Thirty-five Popes were heretics. The
first 13 did not believe in the Divinity of
Christ ; 19 rejected the worship of images
and 3 anticipated Lhthkb in htsdoctrines.
Many have been accused of murder. Leo
V. was a woman. Twenty eight Popes
invoked foreign aid to keep tbem on their
throne.
To sum up, 153 Popes of the 293 were
adjudged unworthy of their position,
"What Dynasty (ask theLiberte) has such
a history ! And yet tho actual Pope has
called a council, which is going to declare
him iulallible !"

this shrub. .
We beleive there is no doubt that tea
can be successfully cultivated in some
sections of our southern States ; and it
may be that even good tea can be raised;
but we doubt whether it can ever bo pro
duced here at a price that will enable us
to compete with the regions that now have
a rnonodoly in its production.
It was only a day or two sgo the news
papers published a paragraph, giviug an
account of a "fancy" tea farm, where,
after long and arduous labors, tea is now

otor," at a cost of ten dollars a pound.
