A London cable says : The body of Car- dinal Manning was removed from the Chapelle Ardente of the Archiepiscopal residence to -night, and taken to the Bronap ton Oratory, where the final funeral services will be held. The body was enclosed in a coffin, and conveyed inn plain hearse with the least possible ceremony.' - A nember of children from the adjacent Catholic orphan- age lined the street with lighted candles in their hands, The priests received the body on its arrival at the oratory, and vespers, were sung. The number of people who have viewed the remains ef the Cardinal as they lay in state since Saturday is estimated at 60,000. . Admission to the Oratory was by ticket only, for it would .have been utterly im- Possible for the structure to contain a hundredth part of the vast crowd who were desirous of paying a last token of respect to the dead prelate. , Notwithstanding the miserable weather conditions prevail-, ing, the city 'being shrouded by fog, which seemed to penetrate with Ws ehilliuess said dampness through the heavi- • esit-clothing, the crowd began to „gather in the vicinity of the oratory at an early hour. It was composedlargely of workinginee and their families, and on every aide could be heard expreesions of love for the man who had devoted so much of his tiine and talents to bringing about a betterment in their Con- dition, and who, having fought the good. fight, had gone to his reward. " He was good to the poor," people in the crowd were heard to exclaim. Hundred's of times was this repeated through the vast crowd, many of the members of which had a personal knowledge of the kindness of heart of the dead Cardinal, which had taken in people of all religions. A 5 o'clock this morning matins and other services - for the dead were • said in the oratory, where the body had been lying in state. When the solemn mass of re- quieni was commenced the _oratory was • filled with notable personages reptesenting the Church, the State and all political paaties. , The Queen and Prince and Princess of Wales were represented by high members of their households. All the ambassadors of foreign powers were present. The eoffla reposed in front of the altar. It was enveloped in a black pall, ornamented with a gold cross, crimson cords and &fringe of bullion.. Surmounting the coffin was the hat of the Cardinal. The altar was draped with black;the only ornament visible 'being &solitary gold cross; • • The Right Rev. John Cuthbert Hedley, Bishop of Newport and Menevia, preached . the funeral sermon. He opened his remarks with a touching tribute to the late Duke of Clarence and Avondale. 1esaidthat an era had closed in the history of Catholicism in England with the death of C -rdinat Manning and a new one had opened. He made special reference to the Cardinal's efforts to secure the Catholic education of ' children, and declared that the struggle was not yet over. He added that perhaps the hottest and deadliest hour of the education battle, which is raging throughout the world, would soon be,iought. • ev The inueic throughout the services was splendidly rendered.

Monthly. ' ROMANCE OF THE STREET. AN OPEN LETTER. To Utudness Diem aud Commercial Travel. ler*. The Travellers' Circle of Canada wish to call your attention to the system of treating and being treated to intoxicating liquors when transacting business. We -are pleased to note thet thie custom is now by many 'entirely °mottled • yet some are led to con- -tinue it, per hap faring that to diecontinue —asweleseeree-4teeeissesesessease-'2a might affect the succees of their business. We believe no merchent will allow himself to be biased in the placing of an order by a treat 4rom the traveller who visits him; but we feel the practice id the past has aometimes been adopted in the hope of so influencing the customer, and some travel- lers who have practiced it have been gradu- ally Led into the use of intoxicants to such an extent, as to injure themselves, while in some eases it has resulted ie the loss of their situations and suffering to their faniiliee. In these days of keen competition a travel- ler sometimes finds his sales not equal to his anticipations a spirit of deepondency is apt to take poeseasion of him and if he is sueceptibte to the influenee of alcohol, has taken some with his customere during the day, he is likely to indulge further at night when he meetshis fellow travellers, atter his cestomers have gone home. We ask retail merchants to give this matter their careful consideration, remembering that many of these young men have come from homes where parents, sisters and brothers are anxious about their welfare or perhaps a young wife who has confided. her all in him, has high hopes a his success on the road, trustaug he may soon secure promo- tion or establish a business for himself; and continue for her a comfortable and happy home. Kindly abstain from being a party to any course which, if indulged in; will wreek all these high hopes, and leave the victim a nuisance to society. It is indi- vidual effort that counts, and every man should recognize that he has a responsibility on this question. Signed on behalf of `the Commercial Travellers' Circle of Canada. R.

Several parties in to see me, and I had to listen to the unusual congratulations. Some talk of bringing me up on a bottle, but I'll have something to say about that later on. I'm layieg low and taking things easy. Dad is still walking around with a grin on his face,. and there was a smell of gin cocktail in the room last night.

There's a surprise store for that hayeeed, and it'll hit him like a load of brick. Third week—Everything so-so. Nurse goes Saturday night. She brags about what a little darliug I am, but she's talking for wages. I'm quite sure he mistrusts me. People keep coming in to pew me over and look at my feet.

The following copy of a receipt for a sum of money paid Mr a negro woman in Canada 'eht ears ago will be read with interest. A Young couple Who Successfully Blended Love and Business. A little over ten years ego a quiet young man of 18 or 19 was engaged by a Wall street &Ind brokers as a clerk. One day the office boy became ill, and this clerk generously volunteered t� take a message to another office for him. In that other office was a pretty typewriter, in petti coats. They became interested iti each other immediately. Her employers were three of the biggestspecule.tors in the street. They thought nothing of dealing in 50,000 or 100,000,shares a day. They hadbranch offices uptown, and in Baltimore, Chicago, Boston, London and Paris. The typewriter was also a telegrapher, and all telegraph orders she filled. She knew just what. stocks to go long and short of. So did •; this quiet young clerk, after a while.

When they bought 5,000 or 1.0,000 shares of any stock, he bought from 100 to 1,000 shares. In no time he ' was worth $10,000. .In less than that he was wdith .$50,000.

Some weeks ago we gave a description and illustration j a horse with phenomenal growth of theeMir of the mane and tail, the rest of his coat being quite normal. In the present issue we give an example of the op- posite extreme, from a life study of' the curious animal portrayed. This is a horse absolutely destitute of hair. Neither neck nor tail nor any part of the body shows the least hirsute growth. The texture of the skin is silky and smooth; the color is almost a full black. The animal is of rather heavy type, and with his delicate surface does not produce any unpleasant impression. There are said to be two such horses known to exist in the country. One of them was foaled in the west; the other is credited to Australia The skin in one of these animals is .affected curiously, the perspire.tory func- tion seeming to be absent. The horse does not sweat when exercised, andthe mouth or nose seems to provide the escape for what Would otherwise be true skin perspiration. —Scientific,Amelican. An Aerial Postal Line.

It is to be feared that in many more cases than have been brought to public notice the criminal folly of these misguided enthusiasts has caused the death of the " patient " over whom their -rites have been performed. Now comes" Dr." John P. Roberts, of Philadel- phia, who says be will ne'ver die. The Record recently inierviewed him, when the question was discussed : • "Would you not die if you drank poison ?" " I would not deliberately; ake such an attemitt. You know how Christ on the Mount withstood the temptation to accomplish any- thing in a foolhardy, boa- tful spirit.' • " But if you were to drink poison, Would you die?" " I will never die." The doctor spoke in an emphatic tone, as if absolutely crblivions of his silvering locks. " Suppose I should drop some pi ussic acid in that tumbler of water, wouldn't it kill you?" • No." "Wouldn't it affect you in any way " "No." " Will you give me leave to do it?" " Behind my back, yes. If I have no know- ledge that you have done it, my t-Piritual self will not be disturbed and there will be no hurt. There is no such thing as poison. The fear of something imagined to be poison has caused what is calleddeath." " Whether true or false, do youii—ut-exliect some day to ,pass through this experience called death ? ' " Never. I shall never have my obituary published or a tombstone raised over me. I shall be translated." "you say, you will not die. Your body ap- pears to 8,1e to be like mine, subject to the same ills. ' • " But my constant meditation on the truth of 41ny spiritual self and my unlimited spiritual possibilities, which precludes any suffering from imaginary ills, is gradually working a change in my body. I already subsist on one- tenth the food I used to require, and I am be- ing weaned from my old-time vain belief in the necessity of sleep.' By degrees my spiritual thought will make my body disappear, as it only exists only in seeming. But his is not death, nor like the change called death." " You pretend to cure others afflicted with these false ideas of sickness?" " Yes, I do not cure their bodies.
