their eyes on the glittering srray of pre

the vaat ranges of ornamental and useful

aomething or other to feast their admira

furnish them as cheaply here.
Messrs. Orlswold & Co. also do heavy

Halloween and All Saints' Bay.
To -day, October 31et, is hailed
with great delight throughout the civ
ilized world, but more especially in
England, Ireland, Scotlaud and many
parts of the United States, for it is on
the evening of that day (Halloween),
that the time-honored observances
recur which make the family hearth
jocund with social mirth and pleas
ure. Both old and young join
in the sports and pastimes incident
to that occasion, consisting partly in
games with nuts and apples, which
are made to serve the double purpose
of contributing to the gratification of
the palate and the pleasing supersti
tions of the mind.
A contemporary who bas written
upon this subject, says :
The leading idea respecting Hal
loween is, that it is the time of all
others when supernatural influences
prevail. It is the night set apart for
the universal walking abroad of
spirits, both of the visible and in
visible world. Divination is this
night believed to attain its highest
power, and the gift asserted by Glen
dower of calling spirits "frotn the
vasty deep," becomes available to all
who choose to avail themselves of the
privileges of the occasion.
There is a uniformity in the fire
side customs of this night in the old
country, and many parts of the
United States. Nuts and apples are
called into requisition, aud consumed
in immense numbers. Indeed, in the
north of England, Halloween is
known by the name of Nutcrack
Night, indicating the predominance
of these articles in making up the
entertainments of the evening. They
are not only cracked and eaten, but
are made the means of vaticination
in love affairs. And here we quote
from Burns's poem of Halloween :
The auld sruidwifeV well-hoor<lut nit«
Are round and round divided,
And mony lad«' and lasses' fates
Are there that night decided:
Some kindle, couthie, wide by side»
And burn thegither trimly:
Some start awa, wi' saucy pride,
And jnmp oul-owre the chimly
Fu' high that night.
Jean slips in twa wi tentie e'e;
Wha 'twas she wadna tell;
But this is Jock, and this is me.
She says in to hersel';
He bleezed owra her, and she owre him.
As they wad never moir part;
Till, fuff ! he started up the lum,
And Jean had e'en a sair heat
To see't that night.
To-morrow, (All Saints' Day)—a
day commemorative of far different
usages and ceremonies—is much
more familiar to us ot this region,
than Halloween. It is on All Saints'
Day that we are accustomed to wit
ness the solemn and imposing mass
peculiar to the celebration of the oc
casion, which is performed in all
Roman Catholic Churches, and to
bend our steps to their cities of the
dead thronged with those who go, or
should go to those consecrated places,
to "bathe their souls in holy médita,
tion, as they offer up prayers at the
burial altars of departed friends and
relatives, and decorate with holy
tapers and incense and flowers, the
tombs of the loved ones who have
passed into the silent land." Thrice
blessed and beautiful ceremonies !
Who, but can stand humbled in the
presenca of his Maker in the midst
of so much heart devotion ?
The festival of All Saints' Day
was instituted in honor of all the
saints and angels of Heaven, and is
recognized and celebrated in the
Protestant and Lutheran churches,
but not to so marked an extent as in
the Catholic Church. The same
festival has also been observed in
the Eastern churches since the fourth
century. It originated with l'ope
Boniface IX, in 607, on the occasion
of converting the Pantheon at Rome,
(a temple built by Marcus Agrippa,
B. C., 25, in honor of Jupiter, the
Avenger of all thé gods), into a
Christian church and dedicating it
to the worship of the true God, "un
der the invocation of the Virgin
Mary and all the saints."
The day after All Saints', (All
Soul's Day), is set apart by the
Catholic Church for the commemo
ration of all who have died in the
faith, for whom mass and requiem
are performed and the office of the
dead recited. In Germany, both
Catholics and Protestants visit the
eemeteries on All Soul's Day and
strew flowers on the graves of their
friend».

imOOXNCI VINDICATIO A7TF.lt «IXT«»» r cas».
The well-kuowu opera of Fra Dia
vnlo is based on tragical events
which occurred in France nearly
one hundred and seventy years ago.
These facts are thus condensed from
the Court records by a Paris pa
per :
At the beginning of the last cen
tury there was to be seen in the
town ot Lille a very quiet house.
It was a large building, but it con
tained only a small family—a hus
band and wife and one servant girl.
The Curiosités Judiciaires add that
the married couple were advanced
in years ; that they lived quietly on
t heir income, and saw very few vis
itors, and admitted no one to the
house except the people who fur
nished them with provisions or other
wise ministered to their wants.
One night, this couple, man and
wife, were robbed and murdered in
their bed.
The servant girl had heard noth
ing of all this, and knew not what
was going on. The night was hot,
the air dense, and oppressively sul
try, so much so that she had taken
retuge in her room and Bat, for the
sake of coolness, divested of her
garments, before a large mirror.
While there, catching sight of her
self, she suddenly cried, "How hate
ful one looks when naked !"
Having said this she retired and
slept till morning, and rose as usual,
without suspecting what had hap
pened.
She prepared breakfast as usual
for her master and mistress, but
they did not come down. She was
amnzed and waited for a long time.
They did not appear.
Tired of waiting, she sought their
room. A horrible sight met her
eyes. Blood was smeared every
where, and on the bed lay the poor
old couple, cruelly, horribly, vilely
butchered—mangled as only a beast
or fiend could,find it in his heart to
mutilate victims after murdering
them.
The girl raised an alarm and the
multitude came rushing in. Ol
course justice came rushing after in
the form ot the police, with a judi
cial investigation. The criminal
was sought for, and, as none other
could be found, suspicion fell on the
unfortunate servant.
In those days they had a horrible
way of trying to get at the truth.
They called it questioning. The
questions were put with the rack
aud thumb screws.
The Lillois servant maid was in
famously tortured, even to extreme
agony. Yet, notwithstanding her
weakuess, and her sex, she endured
the infernal torture without confess
ing anything. This was the more
remarkable, as she was entirely in
nocent, and was in consequence kept
much longer under torment to make
her confess. As there were no proofs
of her having done anything, they
finally let her go, as soon as she was
healed. Unfortunately, the torture
had made her a wretched crippio.
She could only hobble along on her
broken limbs, and her arms were
withered.
And being no longer able to sew
or work, she dragged her helpless
form through the streets and begged.
She begged through the streets of
Lille for sixteen years. This is all
historically true—nay, more than
historically ; for history often lies—
while these facts are drawn from the
dry and accurate records of a court.
The worst part of her suffering was
that many people believed her guilty,
and scorned her accordingly.
It appears from record that during
these long years, while she went
about with her withered arms aud
bent back, her whole frame still
suffering from the torture, begging a
copper sou to buy her bread, she was
always resigned, mild, and exem
plary in her conduct.
One day, after sixteen years of
misery, she stopped to beg before the
door of a baker. She held out through
her rags her naked and mutilated
arm toward the baker, who stood on
his door sill. As she did so he ex
claimed, in a mocking tone, while
observing her want of garments :
"Well, Mârie Anne, how hateful
one looks when naked— ha V
Now, it is remarkable that, in all
the sixteen years which had passed,
Marie Anne had not forgotten those
words which she had spoken when
alone on the night oi the murder. It
flashed upon her uiiud that the real
murderer might have heard them,
aud that he stood before her In
brief, we learn the journeyman baker,
when arrested, confessed the truth.
He had regularly supplied the old
couple, and knew the ways of the
house. He was hidden there on the
night of the murder, and had heard
the girl when she made the remark
on her nakedness.
And as the criminal is often by
the will of Providence his own ac
cuser, so this man, following one of
those eccentric, and dangerous im
pulses which men often experience,
to say the most dangerous things,
had uttered to the girl the words of
the fatal night. He was convicted
ot the crime for which Marie Anne
had been tortured and suffered a
living death—and was broken alive
on the wheel in Lille.
WaT Mr. Sumpter Turner, for the
last forty odd years an enterprising

We regret to notice the death by

Secretary McCulIoeh on the $-20 Bonds.
[Special Dispatch to the Cincinnati Gazette.J
W abhinotom , Oct. 19.— To show that the
policy and opinion of the Treasury De
partment, on the question of the payment
of the 5 20 bonds in coin, is the same now
as it has been ever since Mr. McCulloch
was at it» head, the following hitherto un
published- letter, written by him to one of
our financial agents in Europe, two years
ago is furnished :
Treahuri Department , 8ept 8th, 1S67.
Mtj Dear Sir Your favor of the 22d ult.
is at hand. There was no expressed pledge
ou tho part of the Governmen* that the
5-'20 bonds ahoutd be paid in coin, because
no sneh pledge was needed. All bouds
issued by the Government are considered
to l>e payable in coin. All that have ma
tured have been so paid. Bonds that fell
due the 1st ot January, 1863, were paid in
cuin, and the Texas indemnity bonds have
been and are now being paid in the same
currency, when presented by loyal men
who received them through loyal chan
nels. The action of the Government in
the past and at the present time is a suffi
cient guarantee of what its course will be
in the future. There is no cause for anxiety
on this point. The Government will keep
faith with its creditors. There is little
doubt that before the first issue of 6-20
bunds tails due in 1S67, sp»cie payments
will have been resumed; but if this shou Id
not be tho case, there is nothing in the past
history of the Government to justify ap
prehension that a depreciated currency
will be offered to holders in payment
thereof.

In this city, on Monday evening, Octo
ber 23th, at 1 o'clock, after a lingering
and painful illness. Major JOHN A. Da
UU.SSV, u native o< New York, and for
the last thirty years a citizen of Louisiana,
uged 65 years.
Major D k R csst was an old and honored
member ot tho legal profession in this
city, and his agreeable, kind and genial
disposition and urbane and courtly man
ners, had won for liitn the high esteem
and respect of all who ever had occasion
to test his social and private virtues. He
was a brother of the late lamented Gen. De
Kussy.who served in the Confederate army
during the lute war, and who formerly
represented the Parish of Natchitoches in
the State Senate. He was also a brother
of the Gen. DeRussy, who had, and still
has, we presume, a command in the Fed
eral army, and who was stationed as com
mander of the post at Mobile for some
time subsequent to the war, where he
enjoyed the universal respect of the public
for the magnanimity which characterized
his acts as an officer and gentleman.
Major D e R cssy , whose demise we have
just been called to record, has left a widow
and sevoral children to mourn his loss.
In common with a large circle of his
friends and acquaintance we sincerely
sympathize with his sorrow-stricken family
in their bereavement.
