Nina Van Zudt'i Cheery Tlili Washington, Hot. 3.—The last ray at liope far the seven condemned Chicago Anarchist* has been extinguished. The highest judicial power in the country has decided that there ii no reason why their sentence of death should not be executed. The inpreme court has unanimously decided not to grant the writ of error which was asked by the Anarchists through the petition presented by Messrs. Pry or, Butler, Tuclcsr and Solomon.Cork, Nor. 3.—The removal of Mr. O'Brien from Cork to Tullamore yesterday created a tremendous sensation throughout this portion of Ireland, firm iu its demand for home rule, and many are the reasons asscribed to the government for the transfer. The reason the government officials Is that the authorities wished to remove the prisoner from the influence of the mayor of Cork, whose visits to the jail and promises to report to the country the daily progress of events concerning Mr. O'Brien and Mr. Mandeville, their treatment, utterances, etc., were thought to have an unfavorable effect upon the prisoners and the public. Turhervillk, Conn., Nov. a—John Hodel, a silk weaver of this village, shot and killed his wife and, setting fire to bis house, smothered bis two children yesterday morning. The people of the village observed smoke escaping from the roof of (ho house and went in to put out the bias:. They discovered that Mrs. Hodel had been tied to a bed and shot and that the husband, who was probably the murderer, had fled. While the posse went out to hunt tor Hodel the people suddenly remembered that the two children, aged 0 and 8 years, had not been seen. On going to their room, the little ones were discovered in bed. One of the boys lived a short time, the other had been smothered. 59 A New of Intense Interest, and an Impor«. tant Contribution to War Hiatory. McNamnra claims that he, with his party, did the double burglary at the McNeil mansion in Fairfield and carried off the diver plate. The same burglars robbed more Houses and residences of a sealskin sacque and silverware. They robbed the Congregational parsonage of the communion service. They attempted to break into Harry Clover's residence, but were driven off by hounds. Borne half dozen other houses were robbed in Fairfield. Ibey also entered residences in Black Rock and Norwalk, and in these two towns they were shot at, but escaped. The necessary requisition papers for the removal of Crosby to this state are now being obtained. "Daring and Suffering!'1 This decision was announced at the session of the court yesterday, by Chief Justioe Waite, in the presence of a great assemblage of the bar and prominent citizens of Washington. It is very long, and givee only the legal grounds for not granting the writ, the merits of the case not having been considered.But it is suspected that the true reason is that Tullamore is easily and speedily accessible from Dublin, Curragh, Kildsre and other places in that region, where troops are stationed in large numbers. The fact is that the government had reason to fear that in the present temper of the people a rescue might be attempted, aad took timely precautions against it. . r:lnr Vi!. '4v* ■ 30 The Story of the Most Heroic and Episode of the Oifil War. ;*1 The minority report, signed by fCrar members, disagrees with that of the majority as to corrupt attempts on the part of the Boston brokers. Several members sign only portions of both the majority and minority reports, so that there are really several minority reports, the variation being as to specific CE80S where the evidence is considered doubtful; bat the whole committee agree that bribery was attempted, and the report reoommends legislation to prevent the use of railroad passes and to punish attempts at bribery. The house is considering the reports to-day, and will probably adopt the minority report, . The excitement in the village as soon as these facts became known was Intense, and the indignation of the citisens found vent in thrests to lynch the inhuman wretch. The man was finally found by the town oonstable and placed under arrest He cannot talk English, but through an interpreter said that he add his wife made an agreement by which he was to kill her and the boys and then kill himself. He said that he bad tied bis wife in the bedroom and then shot her, an J bad afterward set fire to the house to burn np the boys. He would have killed himself, but he broke the gun. Hodel and his wife quarreled over a cow a few weeks ago, and the neighbors say they have beard them quarreling frequently since. Hodel had been drunk for several days. He was committed to the Tolland county jail to await the action of the grand jury. Chicago, Nov. a—The remarkable fortitude displayed by the seven condemned Anarchists since the news was brought to them announcing that the supreme court at Washington had denied the application for a writ of error in their case is the talk of the town. Nothing can now save them but the' will of Governor Oglesby, and it is not considered probable that he will interfere. A private note addressed to Spies wss the first intimation that any of them received that all hope, so far as the supreme court was concerned, was over. He was sitting outside of his cell door, one moment writing, the next meditatively chewing a toothpick, when it was handed up. Gianoing at ite contents, he handed it back to the turnkey and resumed his writing and chewing. Not a movement of the muscles, not a flush upon the pallid cheek, Indicated that the nejrs had given bim any concern. Five minutes had elapsed, and then turning to Mr. Osborne, of the death watch, he said with a smile: "It's all up.

Her first concert in this country, given at Castle Garden, New Tort, netted nearly (18,000, and the grosa receipts of her tour were over $712,000. In addition to this she appeared in many concerts for charitable purposes. Feb. 5, 1853, in Boston, the famous songstress was married to Mr. Otto Goldschmidt, a German pianist and composer. Since 1858 their home has been in or near London. After her marriage she retired from professional life, but many times appeared in pubtic for charitable purposes up to the year 18G6.]  Another crfrcnmstance favorable to the government in transferring Mr. O'Brien to Tullamore to the fact that both the visiting and resident magistral**, as well as the landlords at Tullamore, are staunch supporters of the Dublin executive's coercion policy, and there to perhaps no other place in Ireland where the prisoner could be so far removed from home rule influences or sympathies and at the same time be so securely guarded against violent attempts to set him free.

O'Brien and Mandevllle wore their ordinary dress was perhaps due in a very much greater degree to the desire of the offlciaO to afford as little provocation as possible to the people to resort to violent acts than to spare the feelings of the prisoners, though the convicted men were strongly guarded, and it to doubtful whether any attempt to resent indignities upon them could; have been successfully carried out The Liberals assert that the transfer of the prisoners was intended to brutalize them, by throwing them into a jail notoriously foulq and ill conducted, and thereby dampen the enthusiasm of others ambitious to become martyrs to the Irish oause. If this to really the motive of the executive, they further declare, its effect will be lost, for no Irish patriot or Liberal ally of the Home Rule party stands in fear of jails or in awe of a law that must ultimately, through its enforcement, cause the downfall of the party that enacted it.
