The South St. Louis Railroad Company Put [ Under $50,000 Bond. In the case of the St. Louis Railroad Com- pany against the South St. Louis Railway Company, Judge Thayer this morning deliv- ered his opinion, overruling the motion to dissolve the existing injunction, The points taken in_ the _ opinion may be, briefly set forward = thus: Neither bythe act of December 13, 1855, nor by that of January 16, 1860, was any power given plaintiff to amend its charter, except that it might increase its stock, which it did from 3, to 9.000 shares, but it does not fol- low that because the company attempted to do more than to increase its stock, it thereby lost the franchises it then possessed, or that the old corporation lost its corporate existence. It did not convey the assets of the old com-. pany to the alleged new one. Besides filing amended articles and taking subscriptions for the increased stock, nothing was done. No member of the company contemplated an abandonment of the old organization and the formation of a new one, dating from January 10, 1866. The opinion of the court is that all that was accomplished on the 10th of January, 1886, was simply an increase of the capital stock, and that al] other action taken, such as the ex- tension ofthe life of the corporation from twenty-five to fifty years, is simply nugatory and void. The vital question is whether the third sec- tion of the act of January 16, 1860, is still operative to exclude the defendant from oc- cupying all of the streets in con- bversy, or whether it has been repealed in D far as it affects the whole or any portion of id streets. phe Cecision of the Supreme Court in the > St. Louis Railroad Company vs. stern Railroad Company 1n effect bat the third section of January not abrogated or repealed by ary 15, 1864, nor by the city h 19, 1866, March’ 13, 1887, Mareb 3, 1874. h 27, 1861, authorized the tur streets, and the act #, permitted the use of pe to Gratiot, and are, to rect conflict with the 1860, the question OL was to repeal the The routes of the Gravois Railroad Com- pany and of the Tower Grove Company were designated by.the acts, and were each within three blocks of a parallel railway, and the acts provided in substance that all acts and paris of acts conflicting with the acts in question were thereby repealed. The act ofSJanuary 16, 1860, contained a general prohibition against building street railroads running in parallel directions, within three blocks of each other. Viewing this as an act for the benefit of the citizens of St. Louis containing a premise that all streets should not be occupied by railway lines, the repealing clauses cannot be fairly construed as a total abandonment of the promise. That is, it can- not be fairly inferred either that the Legisla- ture meant to abandon this policy or to open Sixth, Eighth, and Decatur streets to any railroad that might obtain a license from the city to use those streets. It was intended to remove the restrictions inasmuch as it con- ny with the Gravois and the Tower Grove ines. **My own conclusion is,*’ reads the opin- ion, **that the acts of March 27, 1861, and of February 15, 1864, in favor of the Gravois and Tower Grove Railroads only operate to open up Sixth, Eighth and Decatur streets to the extent specified in the routes of those roads, and in favor of those eompanies only.’? e opinion, ‘which is rather a lengthy one, goes on to view the injunction in many lights, invariably ae tay to the same conclusion that the injunction is just and proper. ‘*T believe that the conclusions that have been announced cover substantially all the points that bave been raised in support of the motion to dissolve the injunction. In view of the recent adjudication in the court of last resort, sonie of the most important questions, that might otherwise have demanded very careful examination, have necessaiily been re- garded as not opento further discussion, at east in the nisi-prius courts. But in so far as the points made by the counsel) on the pres- ent motion were not necessarily involved in the former action, I have endegvored to treat them as open for discussion In the present case. **The result isthat the motion to dissolve the existing injunction must be overruled. **A. M. THAYER, Judge.’’ The injurnciion was made perpetanl, and the = etapa to give $60,000 bond by Mon- ay next. , ECHOES FROM EUROPE —_— “TT A Horrible Coal Pit Disaster in Scotland. - Thirty-One Men Killed by an Explosion. _ @ Progress of the Peace Negotiations With Zululand.

ALL READY FOR TO-MORR DW. The Arrangements Grand Celebration Holiday. But little remains to be said of the prepara- tions for the great national holiday of to-mor- row than what was given in these columns on yesterday. The sham battle is an assured success, and 1,000 soldiers will participate in it, as advertised. Owing to the sham battle and the many other festivities which will take place in and about the city, a great influx of visitors from the neighboring cities and villages may.be expected. Allof the railway and steamboat lines have made special excursion rates for the occasion, and it is thought that the crowds in attendance at the parade of the Veiled Prophets and the opening of the bridge will be far short, in point of numbers, to that of to-morrow. The orphans’ picnic, which is to be given at the Fair Grounds, and the match game of base ball between the Springfield, Ill., club and the Browns at Grand Avenue Base Ball Park will also prove attractive features, Grace Episcopal Chureh will give a picnic to Wood River Grove on the steamer Bald Eagle, which excursion should receive a lib- eral share of public patronage. The Missouri Gymnastic Society, the Mound City Cricket Club and the Modoc Rowing Club will be present ina body. The.e will be danciug on the beatand in*the grove to the excellent musicof the Knights of Pythias band. A splendid time is assured to all who attend. Every exertion will be made to keep the at- tendance select. In order to avoid the great rush at the gates of the Jockey Club grounds to-morrow tickets for the sham battle may be procured before leaving the city at the cigar store of 8. C.

To-MORROW’S celebration promises to be the grandest that has ever marked the his- tofy of St.Louis. The sham battle will, of course, be the great event of the day. The Post-DisPaTcH will show its patriotism by getting out an unusually ta paper.

Our med contemporary, the Times-Journal, ed our diagram exactly, and the de- ption of the battle verbatim, even going 50 far as to include the only error which appeared in our account.

This may be a good thing for the managers, but we fear it will result poorly for patrons ef the drama in St. Louis. There is nothing like competi- tion, even in the theatrical business. In- stead of competition, we have the prospect of a monopoly. It is, perhaps, a lucky accident that Mr. Pope dropped in in time to have his new theater ready for the open- ing of the season. oo WE should like to have the opinion of an d@nsurance expert as to the amount of fire risk created by the new building going up on Sixth and Olive. The flooring has been Jaid on the ground floor, and it presents a beautiful surface of an acre or so of pine plank supported by an acre or so of pine pists, without any dividing wall of any nd. To a lgyman it looks dangerous, icularly to one who remembers the mc work done by the flames in the recent fires on Fourth and Fifth streets. We should like to know what the Chief of the Fire Department thinks of it; we presume he has looked at it with the eye of an ex- pert. For such cleanlinessand healthiness as St. Louis enjoys we may thank the excel- lent sewer system and the abundant rains of heaven, but no thanks are due to the de- partment of street cleaning, if there is such a department, orto the department of street repairing, if there is such a department. The paving of the alleys in St. Louis would be a disgrace to Constanti- nople, and a model taken of an ordinary al ley would look like a section of Switzer- and refuse which smells bad and is unheal- “7a | for Mr. Tilden’s | even a possible of St. Louis society. is ely 4 pay ent can not afford to re- Jax any 0 Piss Viitidince ¥t it Wishteto keep the pony free from preventible disease. ——— WE republish from the Central Baptist the protest of the pastors of the Baptist churches against the ‘action of Dr. Boyd and the Second Baptist Church in holding joint services with the Jewish congregation of Dr. Sonneschein. The pastors say that this service must have been ‘‘displeasing to God,’”? but we hope they are mistaken. It has furnished a pregnant text for the scoffer and the unbeliever to note that one effect of dogmatic religion was to extinguish that natural charity which leads just and pious men to respect the opinions of others, the different creeds having at times striven hard to prevent each other from worship- ping God each according to its light. All honest prayer must be pleasing to God, and it can not be less pleasing to him because it is offered up by those who understand His revelations in different senses. We think Brother Boyd’s only offense is that he is twenty-five years ahead of the times in Christian charity and toleration, and for thus offending he can easily endure any pretest that may be made. Fe Bae SPEAKING Of Mr. Wm. Dorsheimer’s can- didacy for the Governorship of New York, Gath, the correspondent of the Cincinnati Inquirer, describes that gentleman in this interesting fashion: Hie reaches more classes than any politician in the State. He is a finer speaker than Conkling, with nothing repellant in his man- ner. Heis the son of a stout old German Democrat, Who only became a Republican when it was a war issue, and would therefore get nearly the whole German vote of the State. He is a man of scholarship and artistic nature, with excellent social graces, and 1s on one side genial and Democratic, and on the othera gentieman and Harvard graduate. His com- mon sense, political management and inde- pendence of purpose are well known. In short, something of De Witt Clinton, who was half a Dutchman, is revived in the large stature, dark eyes and constructive ideas of Mr. Dorsheimer. Heis a lawyer and a man of respectable fortune. At present, there thought of Mr. Darsheimer with the elected Governor of New York this autumn, little in connection is, Of course, Presidency. But should he be he would at once occupy a most command- ing position, and become an infinitely more available ever Mr. Tilden can be. but election as Governor of candidate than It must be remembered that, New York in ’74, he would never have been candidate for the Presi- dency.

Our society column to-day presents an array that is simply appalling of brief bio- graphical sketches of the leading bachelors We call the array ap- palling, because it seems to reverse the law of nature and toclaim for celibacy those who seem to be naturally destined for con- jugal happiness—the bright, the gay, the fascinating, the wealthy—those who claim every attraction, and are endowed with every charm. If the much-vaunted prin- ciple of natural selection were to operate they would have been the first to be chosen as loved amd loving husbands and happy fathers. to fade and wither in sad and hopeless celi- bacy is a social problem which would puzzle Herbert Spencer as much as it would delight the gloomy Malthus. Doubtless a great many of these bache- lors are not conscious of the enormity of their offense and sin chiefly through ignorance. If such be the case we trust that our publi- cation may have the effect ‘of bringing them to a realizing sense of their situation, of awakening them'to the grace which they have refused to see, and perhaps of induc- ing them to abandon the error of their ways. We will not dwell on the obvious and irresistible arguments which should sway them in such a case. It suffices to say that no nation has ever been able to achieve its destiny through celibacy, and no bachelor of any self-respect has ever been able to appeal to the example of his progenitors. Indeed, if Adam had been as indifferent to the interests of humanity as these bache- lors are, his offense would have been more mae “a a eg Rispatch, ( eo, 8 af a ee ee - ret tt oy uate he a3 2 : "2 ae a -~&, * bur . ees Fu serious than when he-ate the apple, and the consequences more disastrous. ‘We trust that when the social festivities of winter have come around in ¢heir turn we shall be able to point with pride and pleasure to an improvement in the condi- tion of celibacy in St. Louis, and, instead of mourning the excess of bachelors, shall rejoice in the increase of matrimony and the wider diffusion of the happiness it brings. It may be that there are a great many married men who ought to be bach- elors, and whose wives doubtless wish they were, but no one who reads our list will deny that there are a great many bachelors who ought to be married men.

Washington Post (Dem.): There is one point ot view from which Mr. Hayes’ persistent an- tagonism tothe principles of republican gov- ernment, and his insolent defiance of the peo- ple and their Congress, does net seem so very absurd. His mode of ratiocination must be some- thing after this fashion: ‘‘A people who have tolerated my induction into and occupancy of the Presidential office, for more than two yeurs, in face of the fact that I was defeated in the election, will bear anything that I may ses fitto do.

The sales during the Royal Academy exhibition were very tew. Basil Vereshagin is a Russian artist, who is now in London, and who has won an enviable reputation there. He began life as an officer of marines, but quitted the service early and applied himself to a vigorons study of paint- ing. He bas had a varied experience and tray- eled in many countries, although he is only thirty-five years of age. He has recently ex- hibited a series of nine war paintings, which are said to be of remarkable power. They are described as follows: The first work in the series, designed to coa- stitute a ‘‘pictorial poem,’’ shows us the Emperor of Russia and his staff sitting motion- less on one of the heights near Plevna, on the day ofthe third assault. Beyond the knoll - lurid clouds of smoke arise, as it were, to meet the heavy, threatening thunder-clouds, and one seems to hear the rattle of a hundred thousand muskets and the roar of artillery. Following in historical order comes the transport of wounded Russians the day after the battle. The line of wagons stretches far on the wretched road, the badness of .whicb, combined with the primitive construc- tion of the vehicles, caused unspeakable agony to the sufferers, whose slightest and simplest wounds became difficult to cure, and oiten gangrened. Then comes an appalling scene—the route of the Turkish prisoners after the surrender of Plevna. The whole road, as faras the Danube, was strewn with frozen corpes; and thus it is depicted, crows and kites being the only living thingin view. Such are the chief features; but there are others of note, one of them portraying Gen.Skobelef’s column crossing the Balkans by night in mid-winter. Itisa grim spectacle, the whiteness of the snow giving a light ofits own, by which the muffled Russian soldiers are clearly discerni- ble. The whole collection should be seen, for a double purpose; in its Indian portion, which includes reminiscences of the journey made by the Prince of Wales, itis full of curious and valuable information, and on its war-like side, it untolds alesson more impressive than any peace party ever succeeded in bringing home to the nearyoi a people. the Yei- | S. man-of-war Wachusett has stuck | gresg were pressing a bill in the House, making | ed should be | made at once.

A Mirror in Which They Can See Themselves as Others See Them. ‘‘Let sinful bachelors their woes deplore, Full well they merit all they feel, and more.’’ Recognizing the fact that it isthe duty of a great newspaper to overlook every department of the Commonwealth, social as well as politi- cal, and beinginspired withal by that spirit of chivalry which grieves to see so many ot the fair sex ‘‘wasting their sweetness on the desert air,’’ the PosT-DISPATCH has compiled a correct and authentic list of the most desira- ble ‘‘catches’’ in the Future Great.. This is special reading for the ladies, so that they may gain an insight into the qualities and disposi- tions of their devoted admirers. AlJl those in the list below have been weigh- in the balance. The ladies now have only to read, mark, learn and in- wardly digest, and then resolve gallantly that the bachelors shall ere losg become Benedicts.

We ‘‘aged’’ rapidly and quit. Those who have known Tom only a littie while think he is about twenty-five. Mr. Doan is a favorite tenor with a high C, for which he is distinguished, and to which he is partial.

He devotes serenading the ladies witha guitar and harmonicum., Mark Filley is Vice-President of the Malleable Iron Works, and son of one of the finest fam- iliesinthe city. Heis lightin color and light in texture, He devotes bimself to business in the morning andto the riding school in the afternoon. He takes great interest in seeing that the lady riders are well protected. Ubrig’s Cave is one of his favorite resorts, and ona fashionable night hislight mustache can al- ways be seen by ‘‘the lamplight dimly burn- ing.’’ Filley’s faults lean allto virtue’s side. As a Benedict he would be incomparable; his tastes are strictly domestic. Charles Greeley, ex-president of the Jockey Club, isone of the richest bachelors in St. Louis. Heisfaultlessin attire. It is feared that he will never marry since he has gone into horse-racing. He owns the fastest team in town. Instead of another feminine heart to conauer Charles prefers to say, ‘‘Bring me an- other horse.’’ France he has vanquished, and he is looking round for more kingdoms for his écuine petstosubdue. Itis dubieus whetker he loves a lady as much he does a horge. But the ladies wil] never give himup, and he may yet be broken to harness. Col. J.C. Normile, known to fame as the St. Lonis Poet and the chivalric defender ot Beatrice di Cenci,is commonly called the ‘‘Bold Cavalier.’’ The Coionel will wager on the least prevocation, and,not finding the Future Great sufficiently large, has been duping the Village on the Lake. He is versed in all the norse tricks as well as the wiles of womankind. Though brave as a lion, he is tenderhearted as & lamb. He shines with more lustrein the pou- doirs than evenin the purlieus of the lega) courts. His hour hath not vet come. Henry Paschal is a gallant young bachelor. He is a great admirer of the drama in general, and Berry Mitchell in particular. He preters the immortal Berry in Othello, and is ready to become a martyr to the cause of St. Louis’ phenomenal tragedian. Admiring actors, Hen- ry can dao no less than leve actresses. It was said that the scale wavered between Fanny Davenport and Alice Oates. Now that both have gone back on him Henry is going back on the stage, and vows he will only surrender his heart to a St. Leuts belle. Senator Dave Armstrong,the old warhorse of the Democracy, must be classified as be- longing to the noble army of bachelors. The Senator is too ready and rough in speech to captivate the softer sex. His flery, choleric and untamed temper becomes more the politi- eal arena than the bedizened boudoir. He could not swear in a lover’s mood, but in the biting expletives of a warborse, which beseem nota maiden’sear. He loves the battle and the breeze better than the billing and cooing of doves. W.H.M. Russell, which sometimes stands for Wheelhorse Russell, or William Henry Har- rison Russell,is alegal luminary. He is the theatrical advocate par excellenee.

As the two elder brothers married beauties and are happy fathers of tamilies the bachelor broth- ers haveevery inducement to go and do like- wise. JohnP. Kennedy, of the Laclede Gas Com- pany, is the religious bachelor. He delves and dives in the profound region of metaphysi- calromance. Nevertheless, he is not obdu- rate to woman’s charms, Itis said that he has an affection for ‘‘bumboat’’ women, especially for those aristocratic damsels of that refined occupation tound in the West Indies. Kenane- dy will always be a bachelor—there is only one chance—that West Indian ‘‘bumboat’’ girl. Chief McDonough, it is ramored, is a bache- lor. The principal cause of his continued celi- bacy is said to be the delight he taxes in de- veloping adipose matter. No other reason has been given for placing the chiet in the category of bachelors. The most winning and affection- ate lady criminal has hever been able to con- jure upasmile on bis corrugated brow. The wiles of Womanhood are too well known to the chief. Heis a hopeless case indeed. Ed. G. Callahan, of Bridgé, Beach & Ov., is now devoting himself tothe cultivation of side- whiskers. Itis generally supposed he is pre- paring fora ‘‘vigorous eampaign,’’ for he is especially attracted by the iadies, and the wonder is that Hymen has not already claimed him forhisown. When those side-whiskors have blossomed, nous verrons! ‘‘Cally’’ is the familiartitie by which this ladies’ champion is known” to his intimates. Sim Ray, of the Globe-Democrat, is begin- ning to claim attention as a ‘‘catch.’’ Heis looked en as one of the best business men in the city, and is destined to take a prominent place in the great enterprises of the tuture. He is tall and slim, with an aristocratic bear- ing, @ resolute-looking face, expressive eyes and a reserved manner. He is almost too young to be an old bachelor, but too eid to be a bachelor at all. Wm. Smith, the commission merchant of the Lindell, called by his triends ‘‘Bill,’’ is a widower since his love, U. 8. Quartermaster Grimes, departed. Me has mourned him long and fervently. Nowheis looking around for another boon companion. His loves are mas- culine, true ’tis, ’tis pitv; pity ’tis, ‘tis true.

Knox, son of Mr. Isaac Knox, managing director of the National Stock Yards, is a very desirable cateh. Iie is though, unaccountably, opposed to matrimony,and prefers reading the poetry of Schiller and Goethe.

Thrs is to be regret- ted, because his means are ample as his heart is warm, and he was worth $100,000 before the recent advance in the price of carpets. Henry Ames is one of therichest young bach- elors in town. He is worth probably $250,- G00. He spends his time in going to Hot Springs to reduce his avoirdupois, and when in the city increases it by eating hearty dinners at Tony Faust’s. Henryis a gastronomist of no mean order. He sings with Owen Meredith, ‘*We can live without loving, but where is the nen who can live without dining?’’ Mr. J. Gilman Chouteau ts the oldest son of the late Henry Chouteau and grandson of Col. Auguste Chouteau, who iaid out the city. He hasa strikingly handsome face, with a mag- nificent beard, but is probably a confirmed old bachelor, having reached the allotted span ot forty years. He is in the milling businessin the firm of Chouteau & Kdwards, and pays taxes on $100,000 of real estate. Lew Kennett is small in stature, but largeina intellect. His qlossy locks are the pride of his heart, and to increase their growth isone ot his problems of life. Beneath a quiet exteri- or lurks a causticity of disposition which the ladies rather admire. In the way ot matrimony his efforts are purely tentative. He believes that marriage istwice blessed: it blesseth him that gives and her that takes. Gen. Marmaduke would be worth winning for his looks, but he has sworn not to marry until he has wona seat in Congress and captured the belle ot Washington City. To avoid dan- ger heconfines his attentions to married la- dies. Heis forty-five years old, and getting younger every day, stands six feet, straight as un arrow, and is as popularin society as he is prominent in politics. Charles Fowle conceals his matrimonial in- tentions under a passive exterior. He is reti- cent as the oft quoted dumboyster. Neverthe- less he is very popular witb the ladies, whom he also adores. Itissaidthev are afraid to marry bim torfear that they must buy the trousseau at the Dollar Store. Ladies! beware, beware, he isfooling you. Those quiet men are doubly dangerous. Peter Blow is one ot the best-natured young bachelorsinthe city. With his usual enter- prise he is now engagedin building a new city near Leadville. He is devotedly attached to the ladies, whose faithful squire he is proud to be. Rumor says that when the new city springs Phantx-like trom the ground he will seriously contemplate matrimony, but’ P. B. is rather fastidious. John Slaughter, the insurance bachelor, af- tects theatricals, especially ‘‘Pinafore,’’ which he greatly admires. NHebe is his special par- tiality, and the ‘‘boys’’ say he went ‘‘ Wilde’’ ever her. John has studied all the airs in ‘‘ Pin- afore,’’ and hums them while signing policies. It is rumored that he intends going on the siage, but those Who know him best say it is only acanard. Steve Kearney is a fine-looking bachelor, His favorite ‘‘corkscrew’’ moustache is an im- mense ‘‘lady-killer.’’ Heisa bold wooer. As Swift says: **And each accidental glance Interprets as a kind advance,’’ is what ‘‘Steve’’ does, Steveis waiting forthe gas suit to be decided to come into his fortune. Ed. Wickhamisa pronounced blonde. Hs lost his chance of getting a wealthy wvride on account of his late lameness. Still, ‘‘Ed.’’ is superlatively happy, and watching his opportu- nity; but,good-natured,free and easy, thoughts of matrimony trouble him little. His fate, how- ever, is certain, and some day he will be stranded on the shores of wedded bliss. Dr. John O’Fallon Delany is the best catchin St. Louis society. Heis a grandson of old John Mullanphy, and by the death of his mother has inherited a fortune of $600,000. He is very striking in his personal appearance, of commanding presence and with a handsome bronzed face,set off by prematurely gray hair, and with distinguished manners. Allen B. Pendleton sighs woeful baliads. He has devéloped quite a mania for bats, and each successive moon beholds Allen donned in a chapean of larger dimensions than the previ- ous.

Judge Mumford was considered an old bach-4 elor betore the war, but he has been growing younger every year, until now he cannot be much over 30. He will not own to anything less than that, because he is in training fer the United States Senate. Although he owns baif of the Kansas City Times, he is still a rich man, and ought to be married. Henry Senter is a very old bachelor. Al- though he is a faithful devotee of society, he was drinking mint juleps when most of the girls were—well, when they were teething. Heisa prominent cotton merchant, but he samples cotton only m the bale. He always wears & red wig and a pleasant smile, and financially he is a Muldoon. Duncan Mellier is a gallant of the frst water.

Poverty will then be nc sin im bis eyes. Hermann G. Dennison, Assistant United States Attorney, is a ‘‘swell.’’ He is passion- ately devoted to club life, but is not quite ir- reclaimable. A little coaxing might yet win him trom the freedom of bachelordom and transform him into a meek and gentile Ben- edict. Blackstone and Chitty are his constant companions. Fred Crunden, the fascinating librarian,is no book- worm, but a gay bachelaire. He is par- ticularly tond of fhe muses, and latterly i* is said he has been reading, with a special object, Love Sonnets. It has been asserted tnat F.

He is an idealist as re- gards womanhood. Hecomes frem Kentucky and istajland slender asthe syeamore on the Wabash. George is a handsome blonde and a lady-killer with a vengeance.

Charles Mafiit, or *‘Charley,’’ whois one of the wealthiest bachelors, will probably never get married while his mother lives. He devotes alt his boursjn the evening to her. ‘‘Charley’’ is a sparkling brunette and a special favorite with the ladies. An ardent numismatologist, he bas a great passion for coins as ornaments. Judge Tnayer is the only bachelor member of the bencbh.. He has, therefore, had more dl- In conscquence he has gleaned an insight into the ‘‘shoals and quicksands’’ of the sea ot matrimony, and issomewhat chary of launch- ing his craftintosuch uncertain waters. Fred. Priest did contemplate matrimony. Butinan unlucky hour he assumed the dan- gerous duties of theatrical manager. As a consequence, Fred, is out of money and has any quantity of lawsuits on hand. When those harassing perpleaities are settied, Fred may be persuaded to ‘‘settle’’ himself. John Blow, generally dubbed ‘‘Johnny,’’ cares naught for the treacherous smiles of de- ceiving damsels. Heis no carpet knight, buta preux chevalier. His loveis athletivtal. John- ny seeks to shine in deeds of daring do on the horizontal bar, and yearns no more tor the triumphs of the boudoir. C. Jeff Clark, Captain orf the cavalry com pany,is a hadsome bachelor. Although a tavorite with the ladies, he doesrt’t pay his de- voirs to them as he should do. A dashing fel- low, his soul is occupied with the snorting steed and the sound of arms instead of with love’s sweet dreains. Charley Chapman, the rich young bachelor of Lucas Place, is very susceptible of Cupid’s darts. Onditthat he nad to go to Europe to keep himself a bachelor another year, but this is probably a base fabrication. Charley is cute and way be only chafling the boys. Time will tell the tale.

Although Frank is only twenty-five he looks a scoreof yearsolder. ‘‘lt is that beard.’’ O. L. Garrison, commonly termed ‘‘ Lal, ’’ has tried bard for a year to get married, but his fault is that instead of making love to the young lady, he begins by making love to the ‘*cousins and the aunts.’’ In the meantime some one else slips off with the fair one. Archie Easton is a tall brunette of a bachelor. He formerly devoted his time to base ball, but has since transferred his devotions to the drawing-room. The boyssay the reason he deesn’t propose is bashfulness. Take courage, Archie—faint heart never won fair lady. Sam Hoffman is the financial bachelor oi the Future Great. Heis president of the Valley National Bank. He is most devoted after bank- ing hours in his attentions tothe ladies, by whom he is much tavored. But he is extreme- ly wary and has not yet been caught. Joe Lucas is a mighty hunter. To the fied, the turfandthe farm he is devoted. To cap- ture him from his favorite put iuits it will take some modern Di Vernon. Otherwise it is to be feared ‘*Joe’’ will never change his condition.

What East St. Louisans Will do To- Morrow—lItems. The Mayor and city officials anticipate no trouble to-morrow. All the labor organiza- tions that will participate in the parade in St. Louis will pass through East St. Louis with- out stopping. The city itself will be deserted if the weather to-morrow does not interfere with the sham battle, Scottish Clans picnies, and numberless private excursions, parties and sociables that are planned. A large num- ber of the Catholic citizens will attend the orphans’ picnic at the Fair Grounds. The East St. Louis Active Base Ball Club, that bas lately defeated several first-class amateur nines, will play the St. Louis Peerless Club in the Fair Grounds. The Beef Canning Gompany’s works, near the stock yards, are very nearly completed. ‘Lhis place promises to prove a valuable addi- tiom to Eust St. Louis. There are at present being built a number of dwelling houses near the works,* which, when completed, willbe occupied by the employes. The works will fur- nish employment for upwards of 200 persons. The property owners in the vicinity have al- ready experienced a benefit, the value of ground baving increased fifty per cent. A reporter to-day met one of the Council- meh opposed to the Mayor and his associates, and asked him when would ibe Council likely meet. In response to which question the Councilman said: *‘There is no likelihood of a meeting at present. As soon as Mayor Joyce and fie opposition will reinstate Mr. Shannon in the office of City Clerk and agree to refer the claim of Koppinger & Biggins for nearly $20,000 to an investigating committee, the Council will meet. Now, it is just as well that the people here should un- derstand the way things are through the Post-DISPATCH as not. Atthe last meeting of the Couneil claims were al- lowed. This claim was presented. It isa bill for macadam furnished the city. Now, the price charged per square by Kop- pinger & Biggins is nearly $3 more than that charged the years previous, and $4 more than it could be furnished for by some of our citi- zens engaged in that business. Now, though we didn’t know what this thing meant we knew that it looked d—d ugly and moved to refer ittoacommittee. This is the cause of the break, and not the water- works scheme. Now, after the break Mr. Shannon, who was placed in office by some of our members, was removed with a hope that this would be suflicient to bring us back. Why, some of the very men that reinstated Mr. Tissier vowed that they wonld never vote for him. This is the way things stand.’’ Here the conversation ended.

a Baptist Ministers Protest Against the Boyd-Sonneschein Love Feast. Rey. Dr. Boyd Severely Criticised for His “Antichrist Practices. * The St. Louis Central Baptist prints the ap- pended protest of Baptist ministers against the recent fraternization of Rev. Dr. Boyd with Rey. Dr. Sonneschein. The Central Baptist comments as follows: : , The protest of the St. Louis pastors, pub- lished elsewhere, is certainly the least they could say under the circum$Stance. It is plain, straightforward and courteous, and de- mands the attention of the Second Baptist Church and its pastor. It seems to us that the time has come when, if they have due regard for the opinions of their brethren, they showld say something to explain the positign they eccupy, doctrinally and practically, as members of the Baptist denomination. It is proper to state in this connection that Rev.E. L a Scofteld, of the Carondelet church, is absent from the city, and that Rev. J. V. Schofield, of the Fourth Church, declined to sign the paper when it was presented to him. With these two exceptions the St. Louis pas- rs all sign the protest. THE PROTEST. In making this protest, we, the undersigned Pastors of St. Louis, desire distinctly to state that our thanks and best wishes are due to Dr. Sonnesehein and the Hebrew congrega- etion of Shaare Emeth, for their kindness in of- fering their house of worship to our brethren of the Second Baptist Church, after serious loss and calamity by the fire. A number of Christian congregations offered their houses, as wasipublished and commented on in the papers. Dr. Sonneschein and the Hebrews, not needing their house of worshiponSunday, generously offered it f our suffering church. We all, as Baptists in this city and in the country, return our thanks most heartily for their kindness to our sister church. Again, we desire distinctly to say that it Was agrand opportunity offered tothe Bap- tists to accomplish good inthe positive and simple preaching of Jesus Christ, lovingly, firm- ly and c@astantly held up to the people. Paul, immedjately upou his conversion, and ever thereafter, entered the synagogues on all oc- casioms when be could, and boidly preached to the Jews, especially Jesus Christ, that he was the true Messiah. He was invariably perse- cuted and excluded inthe end, but he pur- sued the only course which can ever make the gospel a success, and that. too under inspira- tion—the thorough, unequivocal and ge endl ent declaration of Jesus Christas the only Way, the only truth, the ‘only life, ~* the only redemption for man. Whatever may have been the courtesies or customs admitting him to the synagogues of the Jews, and how- ever noble and courteous Paul may have been himself, he never failed to elevate Christ above all. and over all. the absolute extermi- nation of all other gods, theories, or systems of religion. The offer of the synagogue in St. Louis wasagrand Opening fot the Bap- tists; and the Hebrew Rabbiand congrega- tion, be it said to their candor, credit and liberality, expected the Baptists to preach Christ in all his fullness on all occasions, and never expected a single cessation or concession on their account. The point of the protest which we make is this: In view of the many utterances and acts of Brother Boyd, during his pastorate in St. Louis, if not in direct violation of the faith and practice of the New Testament, as under- stood by the denomination of which he is a member, yet so equivocal and doubtful as to make himself constantly misunderstood: In view, also, of the fact that the denomina- tion hus been greatly agitated over the alleged communion of Dr. Eliot With the Second Bap- tist Church, by the invitation of Brother Boyd, and the fact that our Brother Boyd has not seen fit to publicly deny or apologize for said act: Therefore we fee! that this last act of Brother Boyd and the Second Church, holding a solemn religious service, on the Lord’s day, in joint session with Dr. Sonnesecbein and the Hebrew congregation, becomes the subject more essen- tially of a protest for the following reasons submitted: 1. We think that any compliments or pres- ents or demonstrations made to Dr. Sonne- schein and his congregation, whether in joint session or out of it, should have been made on some occasion during the week—since such an occasion is purely of a secular character. 2. Such an oceaslon should have been de- void of ayy joint religious exercises especially ignoring Jesus Christ, since the two pastors, the one « Baptist and’the other a Hebrew—the same being true of the two congregations—are at extreme Variance With each other on the subject of Jesus as a Redeemer and as the Messiah. Such a joint religious service, Dr. Sorneschein leading in praver, the choir sing-« ing alternately Christian and Jewish songs, could not help benig displeasing to God, how- ever plausible, pepulur, sentimental or enjoy- able by mistaken Kkhuman beings—provided Jesus Christ is who and what the New Testa- ment reveals him to/pe. If Jesus is not, ther the commingling of joint and va- riant religious serfvices could not be = sub- versive of truth or/spirit, since one religion would be the sam@ as another so we were hon- est. As pastors @f the Baptist churches of St. Louis and vicinitW we protest suolemnly,as we expect to stand Jbefore the judgement seat of Christ, where fve shall all appear, that any ~Bervice, joint gr otherwise, and any part of Which does no&t designedly give all the glory and honor ayfd praise and dominion to God the Father, thrugh our Lord Jesus Christ, is in direct conf¥ict with all the facts and teachings of the Biblg concerning the doctrine of. Jesus Christ. 1) Him we live and have our being, through Mim we speak, pray, praise, feel and act—and@unto Him all homage must be paid. Any religious service of which Christ is not the me@ium is treason to God, according to the las@ will and Testament of our Lord Jesus CbristZ 3. out ‘e protest alfo that the act of cutting he tirst verse of the hymn ‘*Nearer My to Thee,’ ’in order to keep from offending Hebrews with the word *‘cross,’’ was a rful compromise of Christianity in order to fase Judaism. Further, that the declara- ns of Dr. Boyd on the occasion as published he Times-Journal: *‘A man hada right to ture his God according to his needs; he had right to goto his God in .any manner he bose,’’ are heterodox and misleading to the very people he addressed. In conclusion, we think that an oceca- sion of compliments and thanks was emi- pently due to Dr. Sonneschein and his people. We should bave been glad to have joined, or been present, in such an occasion with our brother and bis church—the Secou.d Baptist, our stronvest and oldest in the city and com- posed of a noble army of brethren and sisters. ‘An appropriate occasion for the expression of thanks and gratitude to those who had_ be- friended our sister church and her pastor was due and honorable. But a joint religious ser- vice between two denominations. one of which denies Jesus in bis Messiahship—all on the Lora’s day—and that, too. under the solemn public sanction of a sister Baptist church, we protest against as erroneous teaching and dis- orderly practice. In view of these peculiar occurrences, and in our deep concern for the prosperity of our cause xs a denomination, and certainly with no peis»*nal animosity to Dr. Boyd and bis people, we beg of the church, or its officers, anexplanation of What seem to us irregular and unscriptural acts.

Departure of the Arkansas Editors— They Are Well Pleased With St. Louis. The Arkansas editors left for Chicago this morning on a special train by the Chicago and Alton, under the immediate care of Mr. Charlton, the passenger agent of that road.. Perhaps alot of excursionists never had a busier day of sight- seeing, feasting, carriage riding and amuse- ments in general than the editors had _ yes- terday. The festivities at Uhrig’s Cave did not end till after 2 o’clock. This morning consequently there was not much time left to pleep. _Right here let it be said that asoberer~ or better-behaved body of people have never visited St. Louis. Itis the general opinion that editorial excursions are dead-beat ar- rangements, and that the editors take every opportunity to get drunk. This is very un- just. Among all the two hundred people who made up the company eof excursionists yesterday there was not one drunken man seen from yesterday morning at 10 to this morning at 2. The following resolutions, unanimously adopted by the Arkansas editors at their hotel this morning just before leavivg for the train, show what they think of their visit: Resolved, That, long and muchas we had heard ef St. Louis, the present great, not ‘‘Future Great,’’ city of the Mississippi Val- ey; of hermagnitude and grewth, of her great railways, factories, mills and places of trade, Aix ee ee a l and generou 2ceDtio' we ei ] classes of citizens will ne a green spot in mem- ory for many years to come.

[From the Chicago Times. ] Five weeks ago to-day a Bohemian named Gus. Drabrandt met with a serious accident, the result of which was that his skuli was fractured, a portion of the brain gouged out and afterward removed, his nose pretty well demolished, two ribs broken, and his body badly bruised. Two days ago he resumed work, and considers himself well, though not strong. The remarkable recovery of the man, after theloss of a portion of the brain, make this one of the most curious cases on record. Drabrandt was employed in the establish- ment of the Northwestern Fertilizer Com- pany, located on Forty-fourth street, and in the vicinity of the Stock-yards packing- houses. He had ascended to a _ borizontal sbaft, about sixteen feet above the floor, for the purpose of oiling it. He walked along a temporary scaffolding near the shaft, and reached his left hand up over it, and in doing so the sleeve of his shirt CAUGHT IN A PROJECTING SCREW, or bolt. The shaft was whirling about at the rate of three hundred revolutions a minute, and Drabrandt, of course, went with it. How lopg he was carried around the shaft he does not know, as he soon became senseless. It could not bave been many seconds, however, as his clothing was literally torn to shreds, | and he was huried to the floor naked, with | the exception of his boots. The concussion against the floor aroused him momeniarily, and he remembers that he started to his feet. but fell again senseless.

HELPLESS AND UNCONSCIOUS, A messenger was despatched for a physician, | but be was not abletotind one until he reached the oflice of Dr. F.J. Crane, at No. 1493 South Ilalsted street.

He was returning to insisted on making an eXamina- Hie found the skull in on the left side of the head and just above the ear, and the brain protruding.

The temporal bone was broken into several pieces, and the por- tion of the brain protruding seemed been pushed out as if by the bolt which caught his sleeve. it was still held at one end to brain mass, and was about the and nearly the size of a index finger. ‘The doctor saw that it was mangled that it would be utterly useless to at- tempt to replace it. HE CLIPPED IT OFF and removed the broken pieces of the skull, including a wing of the sphenoid bone on that side of the head. The exposed portion of the brain was dressed, and fortunately there was’ no hemorrbage fromit. Three facial arteries had to be ligatured, and some portions of the nasal bones hadtoberemoved. At the -nan’s home, bis ribs were setand the weun’. more carefully dressed. On the fourth day the brain had healed sufliciently to warrant no further anxiety about that. On the seventh day erysipelas set in and came near ending the man’s life, but he rallied from this attack. On the fourteenth day the patient went out of the house, and two days later his physician was discharged. On Monday last he resumed his work as before stated. A Times reporter saw Drabrandt at his home at No. 70! Hinman street, on last night, and questioned him closely to discover, if pos- sible, any abnormal condition of mind or body, which would most certainly be expected from the loss of so much of the brain. He skays-he has retaaped full possession of all his faculties, and has never been disturbed by in- dieations of paraWysis or loss of senses, so far | as he knows. He is AFFECTED BY HEAT, HOWEVER, and at times is troubled by his ‘‘brain seem- ing to get hot,’’ as be terins it, and his head aches. Ilis wife says that she has noticed nothing unusual in his actions, except that ‘she gets mad awful easy now,’’ whereas he was before the accident one of the kindest and mildest-tempered of men. He becomes vexed atthe children and wants to whipthem for the most trivial offenses, Hehas been perfectly rational in bis talk and actions, aside from that, she says, except on one occasion. On Saturday he was at work in the basement of the heuse and became heat- ed. Suddenly he rushed up stairs, out on the street and three blocks away as fast as he could go. Hethen stopped and walked back to the house, wondering how he got out. The man is forty-five vears of age and has an iron constitution. There is now A HOLE THROUGH HIS SKULL. nearly the size of a silver quarter of a dollar, Which the physician says will never be cov- ered except by the scalp which has now healed over it. Drabrandt is foremar in the establishment of the company for which he works, andis allowed now to return and draw his salary without doing any heavy work. : The man’s recovery is almost marvelous. Cases of a similar nature are said to be rare in which the patient has been restored to unim- paired health. Dr. Crane gave constant at- tention to his patient, but he thinks that if Drabrandt had been any other than a Bohe- mian—a race hard to kill—he could not have been rescued from death. - — a EVERY certificate we publish regarding Dr. Bull’s Cough Syrup is genuine, and we will pay a reward of $1,000 to any one proving the contrary in a single case. & Co., Baltimore, Md. - — —— Daily Weather Bulletin.

As men who travel on a sunny way Together, having come unto the clime Wherein their patte diverge, o’er vanished time Look wistful back, and to each other say: **Alas! that we should leave this valley fair, To tread with fear the ashen road of care;*' And, weeping, go their separate ways alone:— So, grieving. must we leave the flowery vale - Of youth, where graces fall as morning dew, And part from hallowed scenes our childhood knew. Around thee, O beloved Home, is thrown The halo of our love that ne'er will pale. Here have the smiling years, with fairy train Uf days and hours, as gently floated by As summer breezes, laden with a strain Of melody that all too soon must die. Here have we entered step by step the field Of knowledge, laying up a precious store For seasons that no mellow harvest yield. Italia’s bard we followed to explore The triple regions which his genius bold In glowing numbers painted; we have heard The rolling thunder of the Poet-King, Who. thougl» exiled from color’s realm, could sing Of splendor eye has never seen; he stirred ‘ith voice .majestic all the depths untold Of awe and fear that in our nature sleep. We gazed with wondering worship from afar On Avon's gifted Bard, for never star oe with sugh brightness through the cloudy deep Of some autumnal midnight, as his name Shines in the sapphire firmament of fare. Within this house of prayer, the abode of peace, Ve strove while guided by the Voice divine Heard kneeling at’God's consecrated shrine, In Virtueé’s arms from sin to tind release. We guard, in secret chambers of thesoul, An ark o’érlaid and lined with love’s phre gold,— Avove whose doors that oft shall backward roll, Glad cherubim their pinions white unfold; And hid within this Holy of Holies blest The tablets of the law of mercy rest,— ‘Lhe my of our childhood’s purity,— And, richer than all wealth in earth concealed, The Living Manna,—whose Divinity Here first its sweetness unto us revealed. We loose the heart-strings woven round each spot. Though vainly pleads the quivering heart. Ah, me! Hiow all things sweet do seem when at an end! . sm Be parting glance o’er earth, dothit not lend A holier charm te Nature?—and hath not ‘ble kiss laid on the cold lips of our dead More lingering tenderness than all that we Outpour cre yet the white-winged life hath figd? Even so, our Past seemed never half so fair As bow, when, having kissed her placid face, We roll the stone before her tomb, and bear Away, in spirit depths, her smile of grace. We stand reluctant, on a rock where meet Two tides that journey towards a different shore; And one is rapid ebbing from our feet, The other, slewly rising mere and more. From you, companions dear of youthful days, Bound to my heart by friendship’s golden chain, W ho shared alike each pleasure and each pain, Basking with me in Wisdom’s shining rays.— I part with earnest praver that you may fird Your future not less radiant tic.n you deem,— Your lives as tranquil as So ue floating dream,— And peace around your verdant path entwined; As clouds are wafted o'er the gentle breast Of*some calm lake, nor leave their shadows long, So may your sorrows pass. Our hope must rest In Him whose tender care will make us strong ‘To walk the road of Calvary, and gain That joy which Sion’s walis alone contain. The moments speed. Day seeks her dewy ved; And Atropos doth cut her fatal thread. ©, that another voice had power to tay To xonder luminary: ‘*Stand thou still!’* For we our wreath of grateful love would lay Before you, gentic Sisters. But the will Is subject to the workings of the heart, And ours bear sucha heavy weight of tears That words are idle. In the coming years he echo of your counsels will impart Unto our souls new courage. We will keep Your teachings in our hearts as fresh as flowers Of tender May, that perfumed dew-drops weep. Already have the jealous, fleeting hours Kung the soft cadence of our parting knell: With tear-veiled eyes, we breathe our last farewell! ACADEMY OF THE VISITATION, GEORGETOWN, D. C., June 27 , 1879.

Holderle, a young cigar-maker, took a seat in Washington Square last night, and gave an old beggar woman of the oyster-can brigade a nickel for the purpose of purchasing her some beer. The old lady was touched by his generosity, and came back and offered Fred some of nerbeer. He refused it, and the woman took her departure. Jdhn Hyde, the park slugger, arrived at the conclusion that, as Holderfe was a smaller man than himself, a golden opportunity had arrived for a pounce. He went upto his man, and, with- out a word as to what authority he was acting under, ordered him to leave the park. Hold- erle refusing, he caught him. by the shoulder and started him for the southeastern exit. On getting outside of the grounds Halderle demanded Hyde's right to eject bim,,and receiving no satisfactory or ex- planatory answer, knocked him down, as any man would have done under similar circum- stances. The act was observed from the Four Courts Police Statien, and a squad of ofticers basteyed over and arrested the park slugger through mistake, he not wearing any badge or insignia of his: office. The mis- take was soon rectified and Holderle was taken tothe look-up.
