New Yoke, April 5.?In the Goodrioh
inquest, Reuben Smith testified: He is
nbyeician. and friend of the deooased;
had visited deceased's house in Degraw
streets saw a woman there; bad seen her
before at his bouse in New York. Good?
rioh asked him to examine her; he did
so, and found her three .months preg?
nant. "Goodrioh asked bim to produce
an abortion; he refused, but an abortion
was produced, he believed, by a man
named. Butts. Did not know where
Butts lived; did not remember Kite
Stoddard. ? Deceased said i she was a
woman of violent temper. Witness could
identify her, if he saw her. Mrs. Myers
was not the woman. The investigation
lasted till after mid-night.
Among the passengers saved from the
Atlantio, were S. W. Viok, of Wilming?
ton, North Carolina, and a Frenchman,
named Simon Camacho, who had his
legs badly frozen. They were in the
rigging eight hours. Passengers report
that from 300 to 500 passengers of tbo
Atlantio must have perished within ten
minutes after the boat struck tho second
time. In conversation with a reporter,
yesterday evening, at Halifax, Captain
Williams said he spent most of Thursday
night at Mar's Hill, and personally exa?
mined tbe bodies, but found none of
them mutilated; but believed many
bodies had been robbed. He said tbo
Atlantic was sufficiently ooaled before
leaving Liverpool, if it had not been for
three days' heavy weather experienced.
Wc wore out of our position solely on
account of the onrrent, whioh must have
had a Northerly set, as well as Westerly,
and he allowed eight degrees Eastward
to offset it, believing that to bo ample.
On Monday, he was qoite sore of his
position, both barometers agreeing, hut
the Northerly "set" proved greater than
allowed for. For two or thiee days pre?
ceding, he had found the ship set to
Southward and Eastward of her position.
Captain W. was in tbo ohart-room on
the saloon deck?less than thirty feet
from the bridge?when the ship struck.
All the leads and lines were in order, bat

Commissioners had a ta'k with the Mo
docs, who made - the same old speeches.
They refuse propositions for their; re?
moval, and want to be'let alone, and to
have the troops sent away. Captain Jaok
is insolent- and overbearing; he raid he
had already stated bis terms; be knew no
other country, and would go to no other.
Schon ichio'e speech was to the same ef?
fect. Colonel Mason's command is or?
dered to move at once into eamp, two
miles distant, and opposite Captain
Jack's eave.
Saw Francisco, April 5?The latest
from the lava beds ia that the opinion
prevails in camp, that the difficulty cau
never end without fighting. A number
of sqaawa and Shook Nasty Gim re?
turned to camp with' tbo Commissioner;
the fprmer were loaded with presents
and food, and then went back to the
Captain's care. It is reported that the |
Modocs intend making the first attack,
and the troops in consequence have dou?
bled their line of pickets. Company
commanders have been ordered to bold
themselves in readiness to receive the
enemy at any moment.
Memphis, Tv;sn> April 5.?R. W.
Coleman killed bio brother-in-law, John
Newell, to-day. It appears that Newel),
who was a dissipated man, wrote
threatening letters to his father-in-law.
Coleman was not arrested. Keel, father
in law of both, offers to surrender Cole?

$50,000 bail.
Baltimore Charities. ? The Baltimore
papers publish full accounts of the mu?
nificent gifts of John. Hopkins to that
oity for tho establishment of a university
and hospital?, amounting to $4,0d0,00J.
Thin surpasses the princely charities of
Peabody and McDooogh to Baltimore.
Mr. Hopkins is a native of Anne Arun
del County,- Maryland, and commenced
business in Baltimore without capital,
j He is now the wealthiest of its citizens,
and is making a noble use of his wealth.
One of the hospitals ii for colored or?
phans, and the Sun says that no such in?
stitution as is here provided for that
olass can be found anywhere else in
America as this, the beneficent creation
of a Southern born than, and every one
of the trustees oi which was born South
of Mason and Dixon'e line. The fact,
however, is in keeping with the histori?
cal kindness of Maryland to the colored
race, half of whom within her borders
bad been practically liberated before
emancipation was made compulsory.
We may also add that, though the bene?
ficence of Mr. Hopkins is on a larger I
soale than that of any of bis fellow-citi?
zens, it is only in harmony with the
broad and benefioent spirit wbioh our
sister State and the Monumental City
have manifested from their foundation,
as none have better occasion to know
than the Southern psopls. The visitors
to Baltimore will see many monuments
in religious and oharitable institutions
of the-noble liberality of that communi?
ty. All true Virginians will rejoice in
the prosperity of Baltimore, and pray
that her shadow may never grow loss.

Christianity in Japan.? Japan is
more and more surprising the world.
Since the days of the Roman Emperor
Constantino, no snob revolution has
taken place like that which is now .in
progress in Japan. It is only a few
years since'Japan was practically closed
to the rest of the world. Bat how in
theae few years she bas leaped forward 1
Railroads,' canals, steamboatp, tele?
graphs, with a radical change in tho
form of Government, indicate, tbe Japan
of to-day. Our latest news is to the
effect that Christianity, by an imperial
edict, has been promulgated throughout
tho empire. The ancient and absurd re?
strictions which excluded foreigners
from tho country have been abolished,
and Japan is now open to the enterprise
of tho world. Wo have special reason
to be proud of Japan. Shu is the hope?
ful and promising pupil of the young re?
public of tho West. In the futuro of
Asia, it is quite manifest that Japan is
to be a great power. Russia is doing hor
best in the North, Great Britain is doing
much in tho South; but Japan, yielding
to tho influences of modern civilization,
yet retaining her autonomy, gives fair
promise of setting a grand example to
the other nations of Asia. "Nations,"
say the Holy Scriptures, "shall be born
in a day." Japan, like Rome of old,
keeps alive tbe hope that "the kingdoms
of this world will yet become the king?
doms of our God."?New York Herald.

Spiritualism seems to seize naturally
tbe Georgia mind and possess the Geor?
gia soul. At a private boarding house
in ?wannah mysterious rappings gave
uneasiness to ' some young men. In
truth tbey were very much'excited about
tho matter. Ono of them shows how
tho mystery was. solved and their fears
quieted: It appears, ho said, that tbo
gas pipo in my room passes from tho
parlor through a chamber above, and so
on through my room, which is in tbe
third story. Tbo obamber immediately
below mine is occupied bysevoral young
ladies who are in the habit of summon?
ing each other, ob tho occasion requires,
from the parlor below to their chamber,
by knooking on tbo gas pipe, whiob con?
veys tbo sound to them, tho signal being
mutually understood answers the pur?
pose effectually. Tho rapping is beard
with equal distinctness from the third
floor. It so happened that when tho o0
ourrence took plaoo as related above,
several young Indies and gentlemen wero
sitting in the parlor, and one of them,
either in sport or inadvertently, tapped
the iron pipe or rod and the rap was
heard by tho young men on tbo third
floor,who, ut the time, it seems, were not
posted on this modus of sounds. By a
singular coincidence, tho raps were
regular, and in some instances, perfectly
correot. Hence the alarm; henoe tbe
mystery.
Danville, ?d the Tennessee River, hae
betaken itself to the prod action of
.gigantic skeletons. Ou the river bank,
where there had recently been a slide/
the skeletons of some forty or fifty per
sons, some of them of extraordinary
alee, have been discovered. Noarly all
of them are over ssven feet in length,
j and evidently belonged to a race of men
who inhabited tbe country prior to the
Indian. Skeleton mines, however, we
I should think more likely to be interest'
ling than useful.

Some poor Congressmen, we are told,
"whom tbe $5,00U back pay appropria?

has not complimented Senator Clayton
on his escape from investigation by the

The Nebraska Legisluturo was in a
great hurry to get through its business,
and consequently rushed matters.
Among other' things, tbe boundaries of
Counties wei^ altered, and in each a
