NEWS OE THE VAT. -Gold closed yesterday at 14jal4?. -Tbe New York cotton market closed quiet and steady at 19j cents for uplands; sales 1538 bales. -In Liverpeol cotton closed active; uplands 9*s.9Jd, Orleans 9$a9Jd; sales 18,000 bales -A fire at Helena (Montana) yesterday de? stroyed the postoffioe and several adjoining buildings. Loss $75,000. -A very Interesting testamentary warfare ls being waged in New York by a knot cf rela? tives who have been cut off without a single one of the five hundred thousand dollars In? volved. The tacts In the caso tue ihat Mrs. Martha P. W?rz died In Nice, France, on ihe 8th of last January. She 'elt an estate of $500,000. In November. 1SC\ she made a will, in which she bequeathed Small amounts to a number of benevolent societies in the United States, but the great bulk ot her property to Charles Pemberton W?rz, a nephew. She had a considerable number of other relations, to whom she devised not a dollar. Three of them now contest the will, their most important point being that Mrs. W?rz bad executed her testament according to the laws of the United States, although she died In France, and made the will in that country. This would render lt null and void so far as ber personal property ls concerned. Io the body of the will, however, she declares that she always regarded this country as ber home. The case is quite com? plicated, and promises to puzzle the brains of the lawyers for some time to come. -A musician employed at one of the London theatres possessed a splendid ebony flute. He seldom used it, however, inconsequence of the upper holes being Imperfect. This muslcnn had a lodger who worked for the theatre. A strong friendship sprang up between the two, but one night, while the musician was away at the theatre, the flute was stolen, and suspicion Mt upon an old woman who used to do house? work. Nothing, however, tended to show her guilt, and. the matter was at last dismissed and forgotten. In a few months the tailor lett the j bouse and the musician moved to another town bnt their friendship lasted. About a year after? ward the musician paid the tailor a visit, and found him In possesiion of a beautiful bull? finch that conld distinctly whistle three tunes. the performance was perfect, with this excep? tion-whenever he came to a certain note, he Invariably shipped li and went on to the next. Bot little reflection convinced the musician that the note in which* the bullfinch was Im? perfect was the very one which was imperfect on the ebony flute. So convinced was be that he sharply questioned the tailor, who confess* ! ed having stolen the flute, and that n'l the bird knew was learned from the same Instrument. -A very well-defined and comprehensive programme has been prepared and issued by the EcgMsh Republicans. Tbey state their ob? ject to bc "the attainment of the highest standard ol political and social rights for man. and the production ol the intellectual, moral and material welfare cf mankind." The means to realize this object are set down as-"1. Application of the lederation principle to al Republican Slates. 2. Abolition of aristocrat io titles and privileges. 3. Suppression of all monopolies. 4. Abolition of standing arm? ies. 5. Compulsory, gratuitous, secular and industrial education. 6. Obligation ol the State to provide suitable employment lor all .citizens able to work, and sustenance for the Incapacitated; none to live upon the labor of others. 7. Nationalization of land. 8. Direct legislation by the people." Among the mean- j adopted to carry ont the principles will be the ? establishment of a high court ol republican | equity, under the name of the Republican! Areopagus, which shall Judge all violations f the lawB of humanity and the rights of mm committed by crowned heads, statesmen, par? liament?, law courts, ?cc. If this high o?rt shield do its duty, lt will be kept busily em? ployed in announcing decisions. -Most Interesting are the reports and-ex? periments ot Mons.eur Ville, professor ol' vege? table physiology, which have been conducted for more than twenty years past at ihe Jardin des Pianies, in Purls, and, subsequently, on a much larger scale, at the late Emperor's model farm at Vincennes. These experiments were undertaken for the purpose ol' ascertain? ing so many fads as possible lu relation to the phenomena of vece:able life. The growth of plan's was watched and studied from day to day, the amount ol'air and water fed to them accurately measured and recorded, the con? stitution of the soH in which they were plain? ed fully known, and nothing lett uncalcolated and unmeasured, except that subtle principie which we call vital loree. These analyse?, conducted through that long series of years by a man who has given his whole energy and life lo the subject, have proved the presence lu plants ol fourteen different elements-carbon, hydrogen, oxygen, nitrogen, phosphorus, sul? phur, chlorine, silica, calcium, magnesium, sodium, potasium, Iron, auil manganese. The plan adopted by M. Ville was 'to use an Inert substance, Filch as powdered glase, or calcined sand, in wi?mh to sow the seeds, and to waler and nourish them willi solutions containing the metalloids and salts of the metals-oxides in such forms that they would be .ikely to be assimilated by the plants. An analy^sof dead plants showed whether tiny particular elements wereassimilated,an>l hence determined wheth? er they had been supplied in a proper lorin or not. For all that, ihe determination ot the compounds entering into the con-titution ol plants, which was twenty years ago almost im? possible, is even now, wiih vasily improved apparatus and long experience, a most delicate ami difficult muleriakiug. -Later advices from New Castle-on-Tyue give inU-resting particulars of ihe recent de? monstration among the workmeu iu that region. The mass meeting on the moor, a few days ago, was prefaced by a piocessicn of the sinkers through the streets. Many for? eigners- Gf maus, Belgians and French '-Com? mune men"-were also iu the procession, and made speeches on the moor. They were greeted willi hearty cheers. Notwithstanding their alleged grievances, the roeu behaved then, and have behaved since, willi admirable good Bense am! patience. They are evidently of a superior order of mechanics. A curi? ous feature of this strike, as conduct? ed by me maalets, is lue Kind ot hands lhey have Imported into Newcastle. Among the Belgian bands are many of the men who fought for the ' Commune," and who escaped irom Paris before the Versaillists ar? rived. These men not only reluse to work for their nc? Tory employers, but give advice of the Karl Marx and International Society qnal tty to the Tyneside men on strike, who are told that they ask too little and put up with too much. The Communists are scandalized at being protected by police with wooden truncheons, saying they know the u?e of the ? musket and bayonel, and are quite able to protect themselves. They do not care for women hooting at them, or men either, and are anxious to take the field on their own account. Others understand the English mode ot fighting within the law, and fighting with it; but such advice as these fierce Union? ists of Creuzot and Paris are giving upon the Tyneside ls very surprising, especially since lt ls the Tory employer who has brought these desperate artisans to England, paid their ex? penses over, given them higher wages than he ' gave his own men, and clothed them into the bargain. The masters seemed demented. It was known that Sir Wm. Armstrong is in favor of an unqualified arbitration, and that time and wages shall all be referred to such arbitra? tion if the men w iii consent and acceptable ar? bitrators can be found. But the masters de? termined that this shall not occur, and the men were kept in ignorance of the proprj SltiOD. Educational itcform. We print to-day a second paper upon Ed? ucational Reform, in which the writer de? linea and explains the duties of properly. It is a lay-sermon upon the text that those who have received mach, owe much to soci? ety in return. A Curious Hlntory. Of Isaac Bult, who has just been elected to the British Parliament, from Limerick, Justin McCarthy gives the following inter? esting sketch in his last London letter to Hie New Y irk Evening Mail: '-Long years ago, when most of us were boys, Butt distinguish? ed himself as an opponent of O'Connell's. He was a professor of political economy and a lawyer. Then he suddenly flashed into a genuine renown as the defender of Thomas Francis Meagher, in the Irish Slate trials of three-and-twenty years ago. Then, and since then, I heard him ofien, and, I think, allowing for all the defects arising from an impulsive and irregular nature, and an ex? uberant physique, he was one of the most eloquent and persuasive speakers I have ever heard. He bad a magnificent voice, none the worse for its rich depth of sono? rous Irish accent, and be bad tushing eyes that reminded you of the descriptions of Robert Barn?. He was anything but a handsome man ; bis face looked like that of a negro-blanched; but his eyes, his voice and his powerful frame lent bim dignity and something like grandeur. I think in his l?Bt days be mast have somewhat resembled Mirabeau. He was at this time, although he defended the Irish prisoners, a Tory and a Protectionist. He was taken up by the English Protectionists, and became the pet orator of their great meetings. Through this interest he entered the HouBe of Com? mons os the representative of an English Tory borough. Gradually be renounced Toryism and became a Liberal. But mean? while he was falling fast into ruin. He lost his practice at the bar, because no one could trust him to keep his engagements. He became renowned in London as a gam? bler, a spendthrift, a scapegrace of every kind. I shrink from saying to what depths of degradation sank this richly-gifted, gen? erous man. At last he disappeared from Parliament and from society. He was past the prime of life, and every one regarded him as gone forever. But after some years he tamed up again, resumed the practice of his profession in Dublin, and was said to have pat aside wholly the errors-not of his youtn, but o? his well-eatured years. He became ibo most conspicuous advocate of the Fenian prisoners, end, unlike most very eloquent pleaders, Ben is a profound and a wily lawyer, as well as a persuasive, pow? erful orator. He eoon recovered his for? feited popularity, ard bas, I believe, welr .nigh regained hie ?place in society. If be goes into Parliaatrent again, and becomes the leader of the Irish Nationalist party there, he will lead to tbat party a force and a subtlety which it now badly wants. Set? ting aside Gladstone and John Bright, of course, I know of no man among the Eng? lish Liberals to 'be compared for eloquence and capacity with big, fervid Isaac Butt. lt he really does ?et out in a new career every one will wish'bim weil. The man never, 3 think, bad an-enemy, even among the credi? tors whom fee neglected, and the cabmen whose fares 'he sometimes would not pay. After all, hexstili has time to make a name, for, although he was a distinguished man live and thirty years ago, he is not sixty years o?d now. He begin life soon and lived many 'lives. Perhaps he will lind his rea! carver now at last." Matrimony In France. A curious IFrenchman, Ernest Cadet :&y name, has recently been examining the matrimonial -statistics of France, and the examination baa developed some singular and signiheant'facts. In 17?4, there was one marriage to every 108 inhabitants; sn 1841, one to every 121 inhabitaats, and io 1870, one to every 127. A3 the arts, appliances and principles of civilization are supposed to have materially increased during the past ninety years, this exhibit 8howstliat frem a French standpoint, at least, advancing wealth, 'refinement and knowledge do not lend to assist matrimony. M. Cadet also hods that in 1841 the num? ber of illegitimate children born in France was 74,000-it is now 77,000. Moreover, in Paris and its immediate suburbs, 88 per cent, of the births are cutside the pale of wedlock. According to the French law, there is no absolute divorce, a decree of separation pre? vailing instead. In 1841, there were 1G78 suits for separation begun, and they now amount annually lo nearly 2000. Assuming from Hie figures given above that there are 300,000 marriages a year in France, thi3 proves that one in every hundred are so miserable that the pair seek through the courts to return to single blessedness. How many separations occur without any legal formality cannot be ascertained, but if M, Cadet's 6tallstic3 be correct, we may safely estimate that one out of every fifty French marriages are decided failure?, eo far as hap? piness is concerned. Carrent Literature. TANCRED, OR THE NEW CRUSADE. By the Rt. Hon. Benjamin Disraeli. New York: D. Ap? pleton A Co. 1871. They who desire to know what Mr. Disraeli was before his band had lost something ol its artistic cunning, will read with eager interest Tancred, or the New Crusade. Its glowing, Oriental style and erotic strain made it the rage when first published, and, for many reasons, it is likely to be remembered when, of Lothalr, all but a biting epigram is for? gotten. For sale at Holmes's Book House, and at Mr. John Russell's. Pp. 158. Paper 50 cents. THE HANDT VOLUME EDITION OF DICKENS'S WORKS. New York: D. Appleton <fc Co. 1871. The third volume of the astonishingly cheap "Handy Edition" of Dickens's works contains Martin Chuzzlewit. Fourteen volumes form the edition, each volume being complete in It? self. The type, although fine, is clear, and the binding is substantial. This edition is illustrated. Poid at Holmes'sBook House. Price 75 cents a volume. ROOKSTOXE. ByKaiherlne S. MacQuoid. With illustrations. Philadelphia: J. B. Lipplncott &Co. 1871. This may be counted a fair novel as novels go, although it is rather patchy and bears plain marks of want of care. The character intended to be especially striking-Old Kitty is merely awkward and uncouth, and the other heroes and heroines (excepting always the high-strung and unselfish Janet > are pain? fully unreal. For what they do, they have, in general, no sufficient motive, and the Deus ex machina is unpleasantly conspicuous. Yet, as the moral is tbut ill-gotten goods bring no content, and that no life is happy which is not governed by religious faith and trust, the book will doubtless find many contented readers. "Rookstone" is not dull, and, al? though aesthetically laulty, is.otherwjse unob? jectionable. For sale at Holmes's Book House. Pp. 145. Paper 75 cents. ANNE FURNESS. A Novel. By the author ol the Sacristan's Household, Veronica, Ac. New York: Harper & Broe. 1871. It is a pleasant thing now-a-days to meet with a novel whose interest depends on the natural evolution of character, consequent upon the events of ordinary life. One grows tired of trap-door9, red-fire and wholesale slaughter, and it is a relief to take up a book like Anne Furness, where nothing Is glaringly improbable, and the required dash of melo? drama ls suggested rather than expressed. Where we must have violence and crime, lt is still best to dispatch our Duncans behind the scenes. The author of Anne Furness has a quick eye for personal peculiarities, and all the characters are well marked. Several of them are strikingly original In conception. They stand out in bold relief, and are always in har mony with themselves-the slight contradic tions In the conduct ol Gervase Lacer, who dis? plays a depth of real emotion incompatible with his deliberate rascality, we are willing to treat as an oversight. The author is equally felicitous, and at home, in dealing with the sweet womanly Lerolne, with quaint Mrs. Abram, the jealously-loving curate's wife, and the astonishing Cudberrys of Woolling. There Is thought and pyschological insight in the book, and we may warmly praise the dainty humor with which the author describes the thoughts and sports ol children. Than Anne Furness no purer or epritelier novel has been published this season. For sale at Holmes's Book House. Pp. 175.
