New York, April 17.—The committee making arrangements for a testimonial to Bishop Potter on the completion of n- ty-fifth year of his Bishopric have decided to have service in Trinity Church, in which Zishop Potter was consecrated, on the 22nd of November, to be followed by a soeial reunion ‘onthe 25th, when the testimonial, whose recter has not yet been decided, will be Por the Sisters of Charity. The bazaar now bing held at Maseule Mall for the benefit of the Sisters’ Hospital is s grand success.. The fact that this charity is one of the mest deserving of aid inthe eity has had a happy effect in bringing out a large concourse of people every night. All the usual features of festival are present, and a thousand different devices, all more or less-ingenious, for luring the stray quarters into the general fund, are in full.blast. The Post-office is one of the features, and the excellent music is not wasted,.for the light fantastic is tripped till an early hour in the morning. The good Sisters are to be congratulated om the results of the fair so far, and it is hoped that the rest of the week will be even. more successful than that gone befere.

The House resumed the consideration of the bill pending yesterday to authorize the inter- coange of subsidiary silver coins for legal tenders. The pending qnestion was upon the motion ef Mr. Buckner to refer the bill to the Com- mittee on Banking and Currency. Mr. Stephens argued the bill was rightfully referred tothe C ommitte eon Coinage and that the Banking and Currenev ¢ ‘ommittee had nothing io do with it. The bill was a plain and simple one which the House could act upon, and the only purpose of a change of reference was to delay action. If the gentlemen had amendments to offer, let them offer them, and let the House act upon them, but do not delay action by a new refer- enee. Mr. Buckner, of Missouri, chairman of the Banking and Curreney Committee, said he was free to say that this bill should pass, but as a. matter of principle he wanted to have the question se ‘ttled at the very threshold of this Congress as to the juriedistion of the commit- Tees on Coinage and on Banking and Currene This was the currency bill and belonged to t 0 latter committee.

Col. Armstrong, speaking for himself, states that the board will be slow about making any changes, and none at all until they can see that the present can be improved on. The action ofthe St. Louis delegation this evening upon the street railroad bill of Mr. Dryden gives universal satisfaction, and it is a good thing that this matter has been so amica- bly settled, as a great deal of bitter feeling was being engendered, which might have great deal of trouble.

Herald. } The existing crisis in Egyptian affairs, which threatens to result in the overthrow of the Khedive’s dynasty or the replacement of Is- mail Pasha by his uncle, Abd-el-Halim Pasha, the only surviving son of the founder of the viceregal family, recalls public at- tention weer tf the mest TemaTkable car acters of modern times, to his adventurous | career, and his success in founding a semi- | : , 8 of the family, though he passed so many years sovereign line which has been perpetuated on the throne of Egypt to the present time and is in no danger of extinction through failure of male issue. Mehemet Ali Pasha, first Viceroy of modern Egypt, loved to be stvled the Napoleon of Egypt. His char- acter and career really abound in coincidences with that of the Corsican ‘‘man of destiny.’’ He was born at Kavala, Macedonia, in 1769, the same year in which Napoleon is reputed to have been born, and which was certainly the birth year of Wellington, Cuvier and Hum- boldt. Kavala is a town of 5,000 inhabitants, picturesquely perched upon a high, rocky cliff on the coast of the Egean Sea, opposite the island of Thasos, and is chiefly known in history as the ancient Neapolis, the spot where the Apostle Paul landed for the conver- sion of Europeto Christianjty. It belonged anciently to Thrace, and it figured extensively last year in the discussions of the treaties of San Stefano and Berlin, by the first of which it was made a Keynote of Russian policy, being assigned to the big Bulgaria“ us its seaport on the Egean. Its inhabitants are a mixture of Greeks, Bulgarians Turks, doubtless with considerable dash of the ancient Thracian and Macedonian blood. The founder of the Egyptian viceregal family robably partook of all these race affinities, ut was known by name, language and re- ligion as a Turk. The old Macedonian jion’’ breathed his last August 2, 1849, THE SONS OF MEHWEMET ALI. Mehemet Ali had seven sons and three daughters, respectively named Ibrahim, Tu- sun or Toussoun, Ismail, Said, Hussein, Abd-el-Halim, Mehemet Ali, Zohrah, Naz- leh and Zeynab. Of these only the sixth son, usually called Halim (now a contestant for the throne), and the voungest daughter, Zeyn . are living. The former has just now assu ed great prominence as the heir-at-lawto the throne of Egypt, whom the Sultan has ex- pressed his willingness to nominate in place of his nephew, the present Khedive. He is an accomplished scholar, well known in Londan and Paris, has a copsiderable party in his favor in and out of Egypt, possesses great wealth and has resided for many years at Balta Liman, near Constantinople. He has been a favorite with successive Sultans, and has de- clined high positions inthe Divan. The three elder sons died before their father. Ibrahim, the famous general, the right hand of his fa- ther, who conquered Arabia, Syria and part of Asia Minor, left three sons—Ahmed, Ismail and Mustafa—of whom only the second, the present Khedive, is living. Toussoum left an only son, Anbas, who, being older than the children of Ibrahim, succeeded to the viceregal throne. Said had an only son,.Toussoun, who died some years ago, leaving five children, all still living. Abd-el-Halim, the new pretender, has sons and five daughters living. Mehemet Ali, the youngest son, left a son and two daughters, all now living, and the son has three children. Zenab, the surviving daughter, is married to Kiamil Pasha, a prominent man at Constanti- nople, but has no children. 0 Toussoun, succeeded August, 1849, Mohammedan law of succession, being a little older than his oldest unele. Though born and bred in Egypt he was a Turk of the Turks, a sullen, suspicious, timid tyrant, hating and fearing the European ele- ment his grandfather had introduced, and striving to put back the shadows on the dial piate of progress.“ Abbas sent contingent to the Crimean war spent vast sums to bolster up the expiring Ot- Ife was mysteriously assas- sinated in July, 1854, when he was succeeded his grand- father in by the | by his uncle, Said Pasha, as ‘‘the eidest male ef the blood of Mehemet Ali.“ REIGN OF SAID PASHA, To pass from Abbas to Said was to Egyptian like emerging from darkness light.

The eldest, Ahmed, was drowned in the Nile; leaving two sons and a dauguter. The elder, Ibrahim, is now twenty-five years old, has been brought up with the KheGive’s sons and is enormously wealthy. He married in 1874 Zeynab, the Sultan’s daughter, who died in 1875. Mustafa Fazil Pasha, the Khedive’s younger brother, was on bad terms with him and lived many years at Con-stantinople, where he died in | 1875, leaving thirteen children, who have re- ceived European educstions and belong to the ‘Young Turkish’’ party. THE SHOTS AT THE CZAR. Easter-tide has always been an unpropitious | period for rulers, and, it may be said, for as- | | sassins too, for though an unusual number of | assaults against 'the Lord's _anointed’’ have been delivered at this season, asa rule they have failed, and the would-be assassin has suffered. It has long been recognized by rulers as a truth that whenever one of the dis- contented chose to play life for life the chances wereeven, no matter what guards might in- tervene—what precautions might be taken. The assassin, in some disguise or other, was | sure to penetrate to the royal presence and to on his victim, but the mo- | ment that the assassin made his calculations | concerning | attaining securing his retreat as well as his that instant he terfered with his conception and weakened its It may be added that at the pres- ent time a ruler counts for so little—his coun- sclor or instrumect being the recognized agent, and himself being recognized witha sort of object, | pity as the innocent and incompetent victim of | a designing Bismarck—that he is altogether likely to survive several miers. Alexander II. has already twice been un- der fire. Ou the 16th, of April, entering his carriage at St. Petersburg he was fired upon, but a peasant, Ossip Komisaroff, flung up the assassin’s weapon and his im- perial master eseaped. Komisaroff, curious- ly enough, was anative ofthe town of Kos- where still stands the statue of Ivan When, in 1612, the line ended with Feodor son Ivan the Susanin. having vitch, Ivano- of Terrible.

Again on the Gth of June, 1867, the Pole Berezowski tried to assassinate the Czar by firing into the carriage in which along the aris boulevards rode Alexander and his two sons with Napoleon III. The first shot missed its aim and the overloaded weapon burst at the second discharge shattering the assassin’s hand. Berezowski was at once arrested and narrowly escaped being torn th pieces.

On the 25th General Von Drentelen, Chief of the Gendarmerie, was twice fired atas he was driving along the Neva quay by an unknown man who rode up tothe General’s and thrust his revolver in at the window. Simultaneously attacks were made upon mi- nor police officials in various parts of the em- pire, and though itis said that fully 1,200 members of the force have been done to death by the Nihilists, not one of the assassin has ever been brought to justice. A reward of 50,000 roubles, nearly $40,000, has utterly failed to bring to the ears of the police even a rumor of the identity of the assassin of Prince Mezendzoff. Ofily within the past week has the eable brought news of the cap- ture of another Nihilist printing office at St. Petersburg, of the apprehension of several conspirators, not a few of whom were women of gentle birth, and of the slaughter of a number of prisoners, who attempted to es- cape, took tothe sewers and were cornered, The last act doubtless brought down the ven- geance of **The Committee“ on the Emperor, who had just returned from the Crimea to spend Easter at the capital. Mr. Mackenzie Wallace in his book on Rus- sia deals very gingerly with the question of Ni- hilism—just mentions it and thereafter avoids it. It is tobe admitted, however, that the Nihilists had not during his stav in Russi manifested notable aetivity, so that he was rightly advised by the friend of whom he asked what was a Nibilist. ‘‘Live jong enough in Russia and you’ il find out.’* Only Mr. Wal- lace did not live long enough in Russia; hed he spent a few months more in the dominions of the Czar he might have discovered that the Nibilists were something else than ‘folk who had nothing in their heads and nothing in their peckets.’” The original Nihilist, by the way, was the late Dr. Andreieff, a young sar- geon whom Tourguenieff met in 1860 and whe impressed the great novelist by his absolute neglect, disdain, indifference, no matter of what subject relation # was in question. In 1862 Dr. Andreieff was drawn in Fathers and Sons“ as Dr. Basaroff. This is the pas- sage in whichthe word Nihilist’’ was added to the social vocabulary: And M. Basaroff, vitch, What is he?’’ »What is Basaroff?’’ said Areadie with a smile. ‘*Do you wish me, uncle, to tell you what he is?“ Be so kind, my nephew.’ Ile is a Nihilist. & Nihilist,’’ said asked Paul Petro- Nicholas Petroviteh; ‘*so far as I can judge that comes from the Latin nihiil—nothing; therefore it means a man who—who believes in nothing.“ ‘*Say--who respects nothing, said Paul Petrovitch, beginning to spread his butter.

Ile has never visited Europe, but received a good education from a French professor, besides having mastered the rudiments of Turkish and Arabic literature. He is a great admirer of England and latterly has learned a little English—enough to enable him to be civil to foreigners and to pick his way through the London Times. He is con- servative in his sentiments and is somewhat under the influence of muftis and tutors of the old .Mohammedan school. He is, how- ever, a patron of European learning, and sup- | schools under several attending several free teachers.

He is of an active and restiess disposition, has reeeived a ood European education, has spent years in *aris and traveled largely through Europe. Of late he has nominally Minister of Finance, until last year, and has ved on terms of great intimacy with his fa the advent of the English Minister Mr. Rivers Wilson, been is the only conquerer of | Syria, and owes the throne to the fact of being | 8 p. m. the Emperor has retired to his room. years | A few | at attempts within eleven months (not counting victim suffered any physical injury. | judging by the history of the last year or so, driving out withthe Empress, the Czar shuts himself up in his cabinet till5 o’clock, nom- inally to work, though the gossips declare that he passes the two hours before dinner in gloomy refleetion. Five o’clock is the dinner hour with a simple meal and a limited com- pany. The next two hours are spent with the Empress in the garden or in ministerial aue diences when the court isat the capital. By or if he is at Livadia has made a fourth at Count Adlerberg’s whist. Livadia, especially since the Vera Sassulitch affain, has become the diplomatic capital of Russia; most of the archives are there and almost hourly couriers carry thither their dispatches. The Czar ner loved St. Petersburg socially or physically; its keen, bracing atmosphere was ungrateful to the confirmed asthmatic, and the | acquittal of the would-be naurderess of Gen. | Trepoff | odious Peter as for his min- isters and a very small cirele of courtiers the life of the Emperor would be that of a misanthropie recluse. The pal- aces Of Nicholas 1. were always open to the people, but no sovereign in Europe is more closely hedged about and guarded than his son. Not evento an outer room of the palace of Livadia could a stranger gain access. Of late years the Emperor has begn subject to what might be called access®s of Sebastopolo- mania, and has founda melancholy pleasure in visiting the ruined fortress, now to raise a monument over the dead, now to celebrate a grand mass for the depart- ed, now to receive a transport loaded with wounded from Turkey. His ‘‘Sebastopol Days’’ are his gloomiest, and vainly did Count Adlerberg and his intimates endeavor toshake this growing babit inthe days when their efforts were tolerated. Alexander II. has also manifested a morbid aversion to all public festivities; the holidays and national anniversaries of which the Russian calendar is so prolific have for him no existence. Never—not even ‘‘hardly ever’’—have the olitical assassins of Europe been so fruitless- y occupied as during the past twelvemonth. In May and June last Hoedel and Nobiling potted the Emperor William, with whom de- cidedly the honors rested. for the stout old octogenarian will shortly celebrate his golden wedding. whereas Hoedel lost his bead, and Nobiling would certainly have been executed had he not perished in prison of bis self-inflicted wounds. -Moncasi, who tried to shoot Alfonso XII., was du- ly. garroted at Madrid, and Passanante, the cook who attempted to slay King Hum- bert, of Italy, would unquestionably have been guillot ined had not His Majesty exercised made the politically. city of But Elba. The attack upon the Czar makes five the silly performance of the lunatic Madden in London); in but two cases has the intended ndeed, diphtheria is rather more to be dreaded by European kings and princes than Socialism, | Nihilism or the Internationale. Atthe same time the course of events in Russia has been most glarming, though as yet Nibilism is almost exclusively confined to the university towns, all efforts 8 in the rural districts having failed. rmontoff und Poushkin, with their Byronie poems in ex posure of the corruption of Russian society, stirred up the youth of the universities, women furnishing a large contingent to the adherents of the revolutionary movement. The emancipa- tion of the serfs, the introduction of railways and the adoption of the jury system all helped to spread the subversive theories, till in 1872 the authorities had to take repressive measures that were shortly afterwards extended to thir- ty-five ‘‘governments’’ or provinces.

TRE cry is ‘*Still they come’’ to the river banks, that is, the colored — of Louis- iuna and Mississippi. As the craze is spread ing to other States, it is probable that not only the steamboats bound up the Mississippi, but towbonts and barges will be insufticient to carry off the swelling tide. The P.-D. sug- gests to the owners ot tonnage that it might be very proper to conter together without delay, and agree upon a course of action as to those migrating hegrocs. The question to be settled is, Shall the captuins of the boats continue to take these thousands of blacks fromthe banks of the river who hail them for passage? II so, it might be wellto let it be generaliy under- stood. Inthe meantime there is a prospect of half a million or more blacks hastening soon to the Mississippi, the Tennessee and other rivers, wanting to goto the Northwest by St. Louis.

How Henry Watts Was Bulldozed on His Return, _ — > Which Process He Likes So Well That He Sends for His Wife to Come Also. A dispatch to the Associated Press from Kansas City states thata great many of the negroes who have recently arrived from tne South were landed at that point in an utterly destitute condition. Asin St. Louis, they are occupying the churches and public halls of that city, andevery effort is being made to feed as many of them as possible. A number have DIED FROM EXPOSURE AND WANT, and more are sick. The resources of Kansas City proving inadequate to the sustenance of the emigrants, Mayor Shelley telegraphed to the Secretary of War for the issue of rations from Ft. Leavenworth to feed them. Mr. McCrary very properly replied that he had no authority to issue such assistance, and that the application should be made to Congress. Just how the difficulty will be met remains to be seen. N If the situation is bad in Kausas City it is IMMEASURABLY WORSE IN WYANDOTTE, which has been the objective point of the whole movement. The facts are stated so thoroughly in the appeal Sued by the Relief Committee, that further statement of affairs at the north end of the exodus is unneces- saly: TO THE GENEROUS CITIZENS of the United States: The undersigued ecutive committee of the Citizens’ Relief Committee of Wyandotte, Kansas, assist the sick, suffering and destitute colored refugees that destiny has suddenly thrown on the citizens of Wyan- dotie.

And ‘now our counties here are largely tiiled by negroes from the hills of Alabama and Missis- | Sippi, and those leaving there now (that por- tion) are seeking a richer producing country. There is no doubt but this is a political move made by some supposed long-headed Republi- cans who, while they pretend to be friends of the negro race, are doing now as the cirpet baggers did eight or ten years ago—offering many inducements, making promises, etc.,to | them for the purpose of using their votes in | | Republican States.

Certain benetits have come of it to certain sections and certain individuals, but the general result is not satisfactory. So far from being satisfactory is it, that the existing state of transportation between Chicago aud St. Louis and Missouri River points cannot last long. There must be a new agreement on the part of the roads, or some of them will be compelled to g) to the wall. As it is now, the Chicago roads are doing business for next to nothing, while the St. Louis roads are making no money. Worse than this, the grain trade of St. Louis is being greatly injured, since shipments of western wheat and corn to this market have been SUSPENDED except so much as comes under old contracts. The only way in which St. Louis is reaping any benefit from the present condi- | tion of things is in the low price of freight out of town to Missouri River points. But there is no good reason why there should not be a reasonable rate on shipments both ways. Nothing so disturbs trade as these pe- riodical break-ups in freight rates, and it seems peculiarly unfortunate that St. Louis on such occasions should get the worst of the fight. The grain trade is the largest factor in the trade of either Chicago pr St. Louis, and it will, therefore, be taken as a basjefipon which to figure out the N DISADVANTAGES from the present entangled and unsettied state of affairs. Phere are now in store at Kansas City 500,000 bushels of grain, 200,090 bushels in Atchison and 200,000 bushels in St. the same region of is, How shali it go rious smaller points in country. The question Kast? By way of Chicago or St. Louis? As is already known, when the Southwestern pool broke up, the Chi- cago lines to Missouri River points put the rate on grain down from 20 cents a hun- dred to S cents a hundred. The Chicago rail- roads consist of the C., B. and ., the H. and St. Joand the Council Bluffs, while the St. Louis roads are the Missouri Pacific and the St. L., K. C. and N. As soon as the Chie- ago roads went downto8 cents the St. Louis roads dropped to the same figure and are eur— ry ing at the same figure to-day. THE POOL RATE on the St. Louis roads was 15 cents a hun— dred and, as before stated, 20 cents on the Chicago roads—a difference of 5 cents a hun- dred in favor of St. Louis, because the haul is shorter from Missouri River points to St. Louis, and longer from St. Louis to Atlantie seaboard points. Merchants here claimed that the difference in of St. Louis should have been than five cents, but they were content to tol- erate this until something better could be se- cured. But how is it now? The rate on grain from Nansas City to both Chieago and St. Louis is he same—eight cents a hundred, St. Louis enying no difference in her favor us whem the pool existed. The consequence / is that Kansas City shippers are Sending every bushel of their grain to the Chicago market. The reason is piain. St. Louis, but when they do get to Chieago they are nearer the Atlantic seaboard markets | and consequently get HIGHER PRICES. To-day, for instance, corn is 30 1-4 in Kansas City, 33 1-4 in St. Louis, and 34 3-4 in Chicago. Henes, a his corn than in St. Louis with the same freight rate. He, of course, ships to Chiea- go. The rate omgriin from Chicago to New York is nominally 20 cents a hundred, buta 15 cent rate can be obtained. The rate from St. Louis to New York is nominally 23 eents a hundred, but a 19 cent rate ean be obtained. The difference, the real rate east from Chics»go, and the real rate east from St. Louis is four cents a hun- dred. How, then, can St. Louis with Chicago? Is it not plain enough that no Western grain will be shipped to this market under existing circumstances. the fact that not a car load come to St. Louis from Missouri points since the breaking of the except such as had been contracted for. River pool, This isa good way to build up Chicago and tear . : : . l 1 | ant immediately gave bail to answer to the down St. Louis. THE QUESTION RECURS to the railroads. The trouble started with them, und they alone can remedy the evil. It takes a Missouri River bridge and two lines of railroad to get a bushel of grain to Chicago from Kansas City. It takes only one railroad to get a bushel of grain to St. from the same point. Of eight cents a hundred that the bridge and the two railroads get for carrying Wheat from Kansas City to Chicago, three cents must go the to bridge, and the two rail- roads divide the remaining five cents. An equal division would be two and one-half cents to each road, while the Missouri Pacifie or the | K. C. & N. gets a clear eight cents. The St. Louis roads, therefore, could reduce their rates to five cents, and still make twice as much as the Chicago roads. If the St. Louis roads are going for a fight, make it count for something? Chicago lines are DOING A LOSING BUSINESS on these through shipments from River points, but the C., B. & Q., at least, Of course the can afford it, since nearly 90 per cent of their | traffi«. the local local cent of income is from Perhaps not over 50 income of the St. Louis roads is from traflic; hence the Chicago roads ean afford to take a lower rate for through busi- ness than the Missouri Pacifie and the K. C. & per The above are the facts in the case as the matter stands at present, and it is easwto per- ceive that the breakiug up of the Southwestern pool is no great blessing.

LOCAL CRIME. Beating the Merchants. Frank Giles is a very slick young man. He once occupied an honorable position in the ship-chandlery store of Messrs. Ward & Brady. the well-known ship-chandlers of No. 517 North Levee. On the 12th day of May, 1877, Frank’s employers thought they could dispense with his services, and accordingly asked Frank to send in his resignation. It was sent in and accepted. Time flew by and Messrs. W. & B. had forgotten that such an individual as Frank Giles ever existed. Yesterday, however, they were made aware of his being still alive and kicking by the ap- earance of a Mr. Stein, a brushmaker of No. 715 N. Main street, who pre- sented a bill of $23 90 for brushes ob- tained from them. Following Mr. Stein came Mr. Costello, of No. 1005 North Fifth street, with a bill for $12 worch of brushes. Then a party by the name of Kup- ferle, of No. 600 North Second street’, pre- sented a bill for $12 worth of faucets; then the Glenny Bros., of No. 212 North Sixth street, appeared on the same errand, ex- eept that their bill was for 89 worth of glass. Following this gentleman came an emissary from the ,Broom Shovel Manufactur- ing Company with a bill for $4 worth of shovels, and -last, but not least, came Mr. Valkerwitz, who ownes the large paint and oil establishment at the corner of Christy avenue and Main streets, with a bill for $9 worth of putty. Messrs. Ward & Brady had not bought a single dollar’s worth of these goods, nor had they given any one permission to make tke purebases for them. It was a clear case of some one obtaining goods under false pretenses. All the merchants in question had orders for the above goods signed Ward & B., and others were signed Ward & Brady. All descriptions of the man procuring the roods were alike and answered the description of the individual Frank Giles, who had cleikedfor W. & B. in 1876. Accordingly O.ucer Norris o the Third District was put upon his track and soon bad his man behind the bars. Half 1 dot en of his victims appeared at the Four Courts this morning and recognized rim asthe individual who had played them such a slick game. Ile was accordingly jailed to await trial before Judge Cady. A Supposed Thief Captured. Mr. Joseph Doerr, who lives on Geyer ave- nue, near Ninth street, isa plasterer by pro- fession. About a week ago he was working 2 his trede in a house near Schneider’s Garden. He bad taken off his good clothes and hung them, as he thought, in a safe plece, and then donned his working attire. When his dav’s work was tin- ished, he repaired to the spot where he bad let his toggery. and found that they hed a'! disappeared. He movrned them as lost for- ever, and did not even t..ke the troubie to in- form the police of his ess. This morning lr. Doerr happened to walk intothe Four Courts luilding, when the first thing he espied was bis Sunday-go-to-meeting pants adorning the limbs of a very bard-lookive eitizen. Mr Doerr thought it would bea good scheme to inform the police about this time. Ile did , and had the satisfaction of seeing the h. lon: taken into custody. The h. I. c. denied having sto- len the pants, but averred that he had bought them for fifty cents. Toothin, thought the police, as they locked him up in the pen until Ir. Deerr could swear out a warrant against him. The supposed thief ayers that his name is William Hall. The Gamblers. John Gillam was arrested to-dav upon a charge of keeping a gambling house and gam- bling. lle at once gave bail inf the sum of Carey signing thé bond) for his appearance to answer to the charge on the 23d day of April next. This is the last arrest. The warrants for those who have skipped town are still kept ready for use in case any of | the lot see fit to return. Alleged Peace Disturber. Catherine Paleshek appeared before Assist- ant Prosecuting Attorney Dierke, to-day, and swore out a warrant for the arrest of Martin Ceka, who keeps a saloon at the corner of Soulard and Twelith streets, upon a charge of riotously disturbing the peace. The defend- charge on the 22d day of April next. Detective Eggs Exonerated by the Grand Jury. Detective Severin Eggs, who shot and killed young Bryartonin the Missouri Park a few nights ago, wasthis morning given back his star and reinstated in his old position us detective at the Union Depot. It will be remembered that the grand jury were in- vestigating his case,and his reinstatement must have been accomnplisned through the Big Tweive’’ exonerating him from all felon- ious intent.
