He had been liberally advertised, and the workingmeu of tho city made the occasion a general holiday. Of the 5,000 people assembled at the Fort Herman summer resort, four miles east of the city on the lake shore, not 1,000 listened to his brief speech in the afternoon, being drawn off by other attractions on the grounds. Little sympathy was developed, and adverse criticism of the speaker and his views was freely spoken. In the evening he lectured on "Land and Labor" in the Park Opera house, in the eity. His fine address was broken in upon repeatedly by interruptions from tbe meagre audience. There was bandinage about Mc- Glynn, and a stream of questions poured in upon him, but ho held the fort.

Judge Barrett told Sharp that he and Kerr and Foshay were thieves as well as bribe givers, and that Sbnrp, with a million in his pocket obtained by theft and bribery, and with no sign of repentance or restitution, had little ground on which to seek for mercy.

Warden K ating supported him on one side, and Deputy Sheriff Cnrran on the other on the way to the carriage. Sharp's legs supported him badly, and his heavy head rolled about. His under J IW had dropped, and his expressionless eyes t tired straight ahead without seeming to see anything. He was almost lifted into the coach.

Henri Rochefort, Deputies Laisant and Lnguerre and a number of Irrecoucilables attempted to excite a hostile demonstration during the review at Longchampe, but the people around quickly drowned out their voices with cries of "Vive Grevy." Philadelphia, July RD.—Mr. Joseph M. White, who has been cashier of The Times newspaper office for about ten years, is said to be a defaulter to the amount of at least $20,000. An examination of Mr. White's books was made a short time ago, and as a consequence he was adked to tender his resignation, which he did. Since that time the examination has been progressing, and each day the deficit has increased until it now reaches the figure above stated, although the examination of his books is not yet near completed. As Indicated by the books the peculations have been going on for at least nine years, and although suspicion was at various times aroused by the extravagant habits of White, it was dispelled by the statement made by himself that his wife had fallen heir to to quite a large sum of money. It now appears, however, that neither he nor his wife have any property or money beyond White's income from his position, and that the money taicen by him has been squandered iD a lavish way in maintaining a position in society which his salary of $2,500 per year would not warrant.

The water was rough. Lee started last, and got further behind all th# way. Teemer and Hamin were well together at the start, but Teemer soon took the lead, and maintained it to the end of the second mile, when he stopped rowing and lot Hamm pass him. He then began to exert himself and caught Hamm, passing him a half mile from where Hamm had taken the lead. Teemer finished the four miles hi 28:21; Hamm, 28:23; Lee half a mile behind. Teemer couIB have done better had he found it necessary. mer the Consolation Ilace. Seeing is Believing! IbD appearance in Chambers street was the signal for the gathering of a mighty crowd that blocked the steps and sidewalk and overflowed on the grass.

The court room was already chock fulL The only 8harp juror present was Azor 8. Marvin. It was a few minutes before noon when Mr. Kharp appeared, supported by the deputy sheriffs. He was almo3t carried in, and Bank into his accustomed seat at the end of his coui.sei's table. He threw his arms on the table and buried his face in them.

Though no display of force was made, it was evident that elaborate precautions had been taken, especially in the vicinity of Longchampa, to suppress any attempt at disorder. The mood of the crowd, politically, was listless, the only person received with genuine enthusiasm being M. Floquet. The greatest enthusiasm was shown for the army, and at the conclusion of the review there was a hearty fraternization between the troops and the people.

Loudon, July 15.—The voice of the Crown Prince Frederick William is now clear, and has almost resumed its normal condition. The prince yesterday visited the Throat ho» pital in Golden square. He was keenly interested in the cases observed, especially in that of an old man who had just been cured, after having been afflicted with a growth similar to that upon the prince's throat A crowd of Germans gathered outside while the prince was in the building, and upon his exit he was enthusiastically cheered. All the counsel for the defense were present except Judge Fullerton. Judge Barrett came to court with his face yellow and drawn from his bilious attack. No steps have as yet been taken by The Timee Publishing compaajr against the defaulter, but it is said that he is now, and has been since his resignation, under police surveillance. He has been at the office assisting the experts in the examination of his aocounts for several days, and the discovery of so large a shortage, which may be consider ably increased by future developments, has caused considerable excitement Late in the day a crowd gathered at the Quai da l'Hotel du Louvre crying ''Vive Boulanger I" They refused to disperse, and were fired upen by the Paris Guard. It ia not known whether any of the crowd were wounded. Judge Nelson made a motion for a new trial, and the motion was denied, and then District Attorney Martine said: "The defendant, Jacob Sharp, has been convicted of bribery, and it now becomes my duty to ask the court to impose sentence.

That the distinguished barrister and former law partner of Abraham Lincoln, should marry at his time of life—he is 61—was not surprising, but when Frank A. Wean, a clerk in his office, asked Marriage License Clerk Salmonson for a pink certificate, and gave his chiefs name as the party of the first part, there was an incredulous titter through the office. However, business was business, and the lady's name was duly asked and giveo as Miss Marie A. H. Decker. She has been Mr. Swett's confidential clerk and bookkeeper for the greater part of the seven years in which she has been in his office. She is a very good looking lady, besides being an accomplished musician, a highly educated woman, a member of one of the best families of Germany, and withal possessed of such business ability that she has had entire charge of the office, and as the younger Mr. Swett says, was "as valuable as any one of the Ann. Tou may depend upon it she is well worthy to be the wife of Leonard Swett."

Ramsey says; "They dragged him out and his wife stood by and begged them not to kill him, but they placed a gun against his head and, while his wife stood with her hands covering her eyes, they pressed the trigger of the gun that sent Bud into eternity. I stood by and saw them do it." Dublin, July 18.—In the cricket match yesterday between the home team and the Canadian!, the former aobred 319 in the first inning.
