A Hartford Times letter says: "A great many of the niembers 'tend' church, armed with their favorite weapon, a razor, and it is very amusing to a philosophic mind to see two or three dozen brothers slashing away at each other all at the same time. Judge Snell, who runs the police court, charges the brothers $50 every time they are brought be fore him on a charge of carrying a razor. A great many of them cannot raise the money, and go to the workhouse for thirty (lays in stead. As soon as they come out they go into the church fight again." -A peculiar industry of California is threatened with great loss, namely: the wholesale honey manufacturing business. In Southern California the fields are covered with a wild flowering plant upon which hoes greedily feed, and fill their pouches to empty Into the hive hoard. The residents of the re gion all have a large number of hives upon their farmns, and many persons obtain their livelihood by taking care of the bees. The prollfts of the business were increased by the use of an instrument by which all the honey was remnved from the comb and the wax cells were restored to the despoiled bees. Owing to a severe drouth this flowering plant has died in the fields. The following story is told by a corre spondent of the London Times at Varna: "The coolness of Englishmen Is well known, but for a real calm disregard for personal peril I can recommend a Turk. The other day at a sta tion here a quantity of gunpowder was being packet in trucks for Schumla. One of the till ease's got damaged, and some wiseacre rent for a brazier to repair it where it stooxl. The nai carame with his fire and soldering iron, mounted the truck, and was followed by a score of soldiers anxious to see the fun. 1le was just about to commence operations when 4 the station master jumped up after him and I unceremonously pitched him and his hot iron on the platform, told the soldiers that they might kill themselves if they liked, but that he was responsible for the station, and nololy should blow that up while he was there." I detor Hugo's Oratory. Victor Hugo never learned the art of think ing upom his feet, and so is compolled care fully to prepare his parliamentary efforts beforehand and to read them in public fronmi matnuscript. In connection with this fact the Paris ligaro relates this anecdote: "The time was after 1848, and one day M.

But on thecontrary, I not a ilemlbor said a word. The orator paused and repeated in his most sonorous voice, 'All, you interrupt me!' M.

The Orangemen Have Their Procewmlon After All, and Unnmolested. [Oincinnati Enquirer.] MONTREAL, July 16.-The preparations made by the authorities for the preserva tion of peace during the day have ter minated in a success for liberty of thought, opinion and action, such as Montreal has long been wanting. To-day all national societies, except the Irish, of course, met and resolved to attend the funeral of Hackett in a body. The stupidity of the Mayor forced upon the magistrates the neces sity of taking the preservation of peace into their own hands, and accordingly a member for Montreal Centre, A. A. Ogilvie, assumed command, and left the Mayor in the shade, so far as conducting the peace was con cerned. The military were called in the morning to protect the arrival of Orangemen from points west. Some 1500 came, and formed up without mo lestation, The troops were called out, batteries, artillery cavalry, carbineers, rifles, fusileers and all available troops in the Fifth and Sixth Military Districts. They were posted at the usual four points, and held in readiness for any movement. The funeral of Hackett commenced at 3 p. m. About 7000 Orangemen turned out with flowers and banners. The military preceded them and held the rear protected. The guns of the artillery covered them at every flank, and every avenue was protected. Through the dense masses of the most hostile enemies, whose curses were both loud and deep, they passed, and bore their dead, almost smothered from sight in heads of orange lilies, preceded by all the military force Montreal had to give. Never in the history of Montreal was there such a funeral. It was a triumph from beginning to end. Every Protes tant was out; every society banner un furled. There were slight rows on the road, but none of any importance. Those who created them were speedily arrested. Returning home the procession met with a tremendous demonstration in the streets. For the first time in the history of Montreal Protestant tunes were played. The Grand Master of the Orangemen declared they had come to do their duty in burying a dead brother, but if they had to come again, God help Montreal. It has been resolved to make Montreal the centre of the Orange celebration next year, when it is expected 50,000 men will walk. Alaoama, Ueorgla and North Uaro of lina are each suffering from slight at "y tacks of gold fever. is * Seven hundred and thirteen Mormons 1- arrived in New York Saturday.
