London, Deoem"ber 29.?The burn?
ing of tbo O?spairiok is confirmed.
Only three known survivors?tbe mate
and two seamen; they were picked op
after being ten days in an open bunt,
subsisting in the meauiiine npon their
companions. Besides tbe crew, tbe
Coepatriok had four cabin and 421
steerage passengers, who had emi?
grated ander Government regulations.

Tho Government emigrants wore, for
most part, agricultural iuborers, who
left England in couspqnence of the
rooeut labor strikes. Many of them
were married and weru aooumpanied
by their families. Tho ship Forfur
shirc, now at New York, is ou the same
line as the Gospatrick. The captaiu
of the Forfarshire states that the Gos?
patrick had been employed in carryiug
troops to India, but of late had beou
ruuuing to New Zealund. Her voynge
previous to this last ouo was one cur?
rying oooiies from Calcutta to Detna
ruro. BUe was valued at $(30,000 aud
probably insured iu London. Ho be?
lieved the Oospatrick had the same
number of boats as tho Forfarshire,
namely, two outtors, one loug boat,
two life boats and one gig, capable of
carrying 250 people. TueOo^patrick's
officers and crew probably numbered
about forty porsous.

Gen. Sheridan, aeoompanied by Gen.
Buoker, Mai- George A. Forsyth and
Col. M. PI Byan, of bis staff, left here
lust night for Nsw Orleans. There
need be no doubt about it tint General

For the Gulf States, partly cloudy aud
denidedly cooler weather, with North

The Cabinet, to-day, had Louisiana
mutters uuder consideration. Attor?
ney-General Williams expressed his
views upon thu nation of tho Beturn
ing Board, strongly asserting his opi?
nion tbat it was legal und correct in all
its particulars, und said it should bo
sustained by thu Government ut all
hazards. There was not much dis?
cussion upou the subject. There was
some conversation upon reports of
probuble violations of tbe public peace
upon the assembliug of the Legisla?
ture on the 4th of January, und tbe
opinion was expressed that thu United
States forces now stationed at New
Orleans are amply sufficient to prevent
any serious outbreak, should any such
ocour.

Chicago, Decomber 29.? There is
high official authority for saying that
General Sheridan does not go to New
Orleans iu obedience to any direct
orders, but iu oomphance with u per?
sonal request of th-3 President, who
desires to have some oue at that point
iu whom he has implicit confidence, to
furnish him with truthful information,
and of such rank that, in case of
emergency, ho oau act without
speci.il orders from Washington. Gou.
Sheridan was intending to go to Cuba
in a few weeks, uud his trip South is
only anticipating tho time, for after u
short stay iu New OrleaiiP, he will suil
for Cubu. His immediate work in
Louisiana is to conserve tbo peace, and
he will not remove uny oflicer or tulto
any part in military affairs there, un?
less it is absolutely necessary to ac?
complish that object.

Du. David Lamu.?This esteemed j
gentleman, who was for many years a ,
practicing physician in Charleston,
and of late u resident of Sutnmervilic,
died at that place, on Sunday evening
lust, after a long und painful illness.
Dr. Lamb was educated iu Pans, and !
wns a gentleman of fine culture aud j
polished manners.
A country paper tells this story of a
new boy iu one oi tho Sunday schools:,
"The precious youth was asked who'
made the beautiful hills about thcro,
and replied that ho did uot know, as
his parents only moved iuto town tool
day before."
Somebody advertises a preparation1

Tbe raid 61 Ih&jfevfc Xofk plohoe
tbe Metropolitan Theatre d?Ciag..o
unii out) performance, ou Wednesday
evening, occasioned a terrible flutter
among tbe -short skirts. The place
was nightly crowded with young boys,
clerks and students, gathered from all
quarters to witness n disgusting exhi?
bition, which was Parisir? 11 uuly in
namo. On the first night the perform?
ance was comparatively tame, but the
manager soon becumo emboldened, a
real French dauoor who has tbe stage
namo ol Mme.de Rochefoucauld was oil -
gaged, and tho cuu can developed in ull
itsdetails. The affair had just reached
the stage where thu Englishman's wife
dauoes tho c to oan with tbe German
student. Tho gallery wuo jammed full
of boot-blucks und errand boys, who
were demanding u repetition of this
dance, when Ciiptuin McDonnell, ac?
companied by his detectives, forced
his way through thu crowd and jumped
on tho stug'3. A seeue of tbe wildest
excitement followed. Tbe audience
made one precipitate rush ior the
doorH, which rofused to open, and the
crowd began to yell aud crush anch
other. The stage manager camo to
tbo front and told tho uudieuco to re?
turn to their seats, and they would not
bo interfered with. Iu the meautime
tho curtniu had beou lowered aud thu
women, captured by the polico, mar?
shalled iu tbe dressing rooms and in?
formed thut they would have to spend
tho night iu the staiiou house. Oue
of tbo girls fainted. Some laughed
und cried by turns, others shrieked
for mercy and begged the police not
to look them up, but they were soou
pluoed iu the cells.
A Want or Confidence.?Some of
the Westeru papers don't think much
of the Agricultural Department at.
Washington. The. Chicago Evening
Journal notes thut tho hogs begin to
grow scarce and small iu Iowa, and
calls upon the big tigurer in what it
calls tbo posy department ut Washing?
ton, declaring that he would uiuaso the
farmers of Iowa if he would bring out
the 3,0OU,00O hogs which he reported
to exist iu that State, for 1874 The
Journal adds: "Prices are good, and
they fall short of his figures uuuily
1,5(10,000. The discrepancy is too
luge, especially when the Government
pays its money for brains and accurate
information. That posy department
is n fraud, and an incubus on tbo body
politic."
The Statistics or Chime and Edc
cation.?The current number of the
London Quarterly Jleeieie contain.
some interesting information touching
the criminal statistics of l?ughiud from J
1853 to 1873. A- the influence of edu- I
odtiou upon crime is uu interesting
questiou in America, these figures will
doubtless command attention. This
exhibit shows that tho per centuge of
tho whole number of criminals who
were able to road und write imper?
fectly, wa-s in 1830, 52 33; 1871, 02 3;
187:5, 03 1. Tho per oeut. able to read
aud write well was in 18:*o, 10.56 per
ceut.; 1H71, 3,2; 1873. a fraction of cnu
per oeut. The number who bud re
chived instruction superior to reading
und writing wus 9 iu every 1. Ut JO iu
1830, and 2 in every 1.0U0 iu 1373.

a reason fur a counterfeit," says the
General; "forty, may be, but be is
wrong half;the time." A woman never
has a reason. She says 'tis u counter?
feit because it is counterfeit, uud she's
always right?though she couldn't tell
bow she found out if she were to be i
