Judge Thayer having declined ant an injunction except upon a notice to defendants, andat the same time giving an opinion intimating that he would not giant an injunciion in any event, the plaintiffon the next day madea similar application at Richmond, before Judge Dunn, of the Circuit Court of Ray county. Judge Dunn refused to grant tne application unless upon notice tothe defendants, so that they might be heard in _ opposition to the motion. Thereupon the defendants were notified and on Monday Messrs. Karnes, Esq., and Cra- vens, of Kansas City, and Mr. E. T. Alien and Judge Madill, of st. Louis, attornevs for the plaintiff, and Melvilie CU. Day, attor- ney for the defendants, appeared at Richmond to attend to the suit. Buta third disappointment to the plain tiff occurred by reagon of the fact that the de- fendi.nts, through their counsei, imineditate- ly filed a petition and bond for the removal of a4he case to the United States Circuit Court for abe western division of the Western District of Missouri. The plaintiffs have now notified the defend- ants that they will to-morrow, before Judge Kreke!, ot the United states Circuit Court at Jefferson City, apply for an injunction in the case removed from Ray county. What the next move will be in this case, or how, when and where it will next reappear it is difficult tocon- jecture.

Oe Ordered to Quarantiné. By Western Assoetated Press. NEW YORK, July 25.—The Havana steamer City of Merida was taking acargo on board to-day when Dr. Vanderpool, a health officer, made his appearance and had the vessel, the crew and the ’longshoremen loading the vessel all taken to Quarantine. ONE OF THE FIRM asked the doctor to allow some potatoes en the pier to be put on board. The docior said he would allow nothing that would detain the ship. He had taken the trouble yesterday te come to town and askif any of the men were sick or were not accounted for. West, chief engineer, had told him they were all! ac- counted for and yet atthat time a man, now in quarantine (Mcheon), was SICK IN BROOKLYN, and he (West) knew he had accounted for him. **When my confidence is once abused,’’ added Dr. Vanderpool, ‘'l cannot take the word of any one with regard not toa veersel.’’ Death of a Reiugee.

Sights Afouwt. }From Yesterday’s Memphis Avalanche. } The oflice of the Legislative Council was crowded with applicants for certificates entit- ling them to half fareon stcamers going out, and on different railroad lines, to points not yet quarantined. Under present circumstances, half tare passengers could only go by the Louis- ville and Nashville Road as far as Guthrie, and by the Memphis and Charlestoua Road as far as Chattanooga. When the Coahoma left she carried out a large number of this class of passengers at the rate of $6 for cabin passage and $2 on deck. The Hard Cash, which went out yesterday evening, bad agreed to take forty half fare pas- sengers on deck, and the list was soon filled. One woman was evidentiy of refinement and better circumstances in the past. She was re- cently widowed, trom the deep black in which she was dressed. A certificate had been issued to her to go off on the Coahoma, but for some reason she had wissed the boat, and had coms to the office again te get transportation by some Other boat. She was told that the cer- tificate was only good for the Coulboinma and would not be recognized by any other boat, and the question was asked why she Gid not go off tho day the cer- tiffexte was given her. The woman’s eyes filled and Ler voice choked she atteinpted to explain, and before she could utter a sen- tence the crowd pushed past her, andthe ex- planation was notheard. She then arose and ieft the office with a fultering step that showed too plainiy the bitter disappointment she felt.

By the last returns of the banks and savings institutions of this city, among their assets, furniture and fixtures are given as follows: Bank of Commerce Nothing Bartholow, Lewis & Co .. Diddje Market Savings Bank Boatmen's Savings Lank Bremen Savings Bank Citizens’ Savings Bank Commercial Bank............... pescees 5,000 Continental Bank Crerman Savings Inst International Kank Lafayctte bank Mechanics’ Mullanphy Savs. Northwestern Savs. Bank......... eee Provident Savs. Inst “tate Savs. Union Savs. Association....... Tenth Ward Savs. Association The difference in the estimate that different banks put upon their furniture and certainly sufficient to attract attention. Three tures at nothing, and the late sale of the et- fectsof the Broadway Bank proves that this is about as good a plan as any. If all the banksinthecity had to wind up and the value of all their assets were as fictitious as that of their furniture and fixtures, itwould be a poor show for the depositors. The tailures of late show that the statement, as published by the bank and that made by the assignee, who does not get so well paid for manufacturing statements,look rather queer when placed side by side. — ABOUT TOWN. EUPION Oil gives a brilliant light. A RELIABLE preventive, Reed’s Gilt Edge Tonic. THE Pompier Corps had acouple of hours ot profitable exercise yesterday. NO accidents can occur from Eupion Oil. EVERYBODY asks for Reed's Gilt Edge Tonic. SBVERAL gangs of laborers are hard at work removing the filth fromthe wvorthern part of the city. EUPION Oil is absolutely non-explosive. EVERYBODY sells Reed’s Gilt Edge Tonic. OFFICER SCHMIDT found a pawn ticket for a sewing machine en the corner of Eleventh and Shenandoah streets yesterday afternoon. The ticket awaits an owner at the Second District Police Station. EUPION Oi! does not crust the wick. EVERYBODY knows Reed's Gilt Edge Tonic.

[From the Memphis Appeal. | Tickets can be had, on the Louisville road,to Guthrie and all included, and through tickets to all points,via Louisville and Nasbville, be sold to Cairo or via Milan or Humboldt. On the Charleston Railroad nearly all the sta- tions and towns have quarantined, but Mr. Ilughes, until yesterday, did a ‘‘land-office’’ business, and is still ready to cel) through tickets or tickets to ject to the restrictions in force. On the Mis- sissippi and Tennessee Railroad quarantine is us close rs u sealed book, and the Padueah undthe Little Rocks railroads have stopped their trains, the Health Board of the latter city having notified the Post-oflice Depart- ment (as will be seeu by a telegram else- where) that mails from Memphis will not be permitted to be put off there, whether fumi- gated ornuot. This is a fair sample of the crazed becoming crazier, and the idiots more idiotic. The late civil war settled the ques- tion ofthe strengh of national as cempared with jocal authority, and the Little Rock peo- ple ought to know that they will not be_ per- initted to interfere witn the mails, If thev do not go by the Little Rock road they will go by way of St. Louis via Louisville, or Cairo. by river there is very little travel. The boats that left here on Monday and last night are liable to ali the quarantine restric- tions, including ten days’ detention at St. Louis or Cairo, and no doubt they wiil be among the last. The Ouachita Belle, now at Arkansas city, will, we understand, leave for St. Louis on Thursday, und will, itis thought, be the last we shall see of river craft at our levee until the fever is over and trade has been resumed. Thisis the quarantine situation to date. Thatit will be improved, we have no reason to believe ; on the con- trary, judging by what has already been done, and the fit of insanity that has posses- sion of the Little Rock Health Board, we muy look for and expectthat any Vagary that crazed people are likelyto be moved to under pres- sure of panic will be eniorced, if necessary, even as last year, by the eloquent double-bar- reled shot-gun. St. Louis, The Folly of Memphis. [From the Little Rock (Ark. ) Democrat. ] A year ago last spring the leading papers of Memphis urgea the necessity of draining the bayou, removing the rotten wooden pavements and a general and thorough cleaning up. The appeals were unheard. The peo- ple claimed to be too poor to spend money for such purposes. Tho whole world knows the rest of the story—the oid story of locking the stable after the stealing of the horse. If Little Rock is wise she will not repeat the tolly ot Memphis. She will learna lesson Of wisdom from the folly and negligence of the ill-tated city. 44 ites Creole Treatment of Yellow Fever. 1. If the patient be taken with fever immedi- ately (ope or two hours) after a meal, give an emetic of mustard, saltaod warm water, one ee each of former to a tumbler of ast. 2. It the patient has eaten more than three hours previously, give a dose of castor-oll. If the attack commences with irritable stomach, substitute a dose of calomel an soda for oil, live grainseach for children, ten grains each for adults. 3. ifthe skin is dry, give hot foot-baths re- peate dly until perspiration is induced. 4 Ifthbeakin is very hot, whother dry or moist, sponge the arms, breast and legs under the covering, with whisky and water frequent- y. 5. The first night of attack give an injection of twenty drops of lau@anum or Battley’s seda- tive should there be much restiessness. 6. Ifthe stomach remain irritable, apply mustard ter; if the irritability continues, apply fly blister. . If the urine is scant give watermelon seed tea freely—hali a teacuptul every hour.

No one should be allowed to enter the sick-room but the physicians and nurses. [Printed and distributed by the Howard As- oo of Memphis during the epidemic of 1878.] A New Preventive. [New York Herald Communication. ] I would say that I have been through two sieges of it safely by observing the following rules: Eat only nutritious food and but little fruit, and that at meals; keep up your usual strength; don’t expose yourself too much to the heat of the sun; donot over-fatigue your- selt; keep out of the night air; dress warm; use little or no intoxicating drinks; take, as a stimulant, two or three grains of quinine three times per day before each meal (sugar or gelatine coated is the best form); keep your bowels free once or twice per day. I have been on shipboard and in the West Indies when scores died of this disease, and my friends trembled for my safety, and last year 1 was one of the few who ied the advance into the Southern States as it began to wane and was the most deadly, yet I passed through without harm. I believe I owe my life to strictly adhering to the above, and hence add my wite for the benefit of humanity. A Yellow Fever Rerffedy. [M. S. in Washington Post. ] The yellow fever isa product of the South- ern soil just the same as the sugar cane, and is the easiest disease treated that is Known. All that is required is to take the patient in time and administer the proper remedi’s, Kentucky mustard and castor oil being the principal ones, followed by the very best nursing. Memphis Brevities. [From the Appeal and Avalanche. } The street cars stop running at 8 o’clock, owing to want of patronyge. The train on the Charleston railroad goes out at 8 o'clock every evening. The yellow tever seems to be playing out sporadically. Our business streets presenta long array of deserted storehouses, Even ifthe fever plays out in afew weeks, the absent should not make haste to return. Whisky quarrels are rot unfrequent in sa- joons and on the streets these days and nights. When the boys get to thinking about yellow jack many oi them find a retuge in whisky- diinkine, by which a sporadic stroke of cour- uge is produced, A better feeling prevailed yesterday than for days past. People now talk about anepidemic in a cool and dispassionate manner. Barney Hughes continuesto seil tickets to tourists over the Charleston Railroad just as if a ‘*sporad’’ never bad existed in Memphis. The Court-houseis deserted, with the excsp- tion of Dr. Porter's sarcium and the sheriff's office. In tbe latter, Sheriff McGowan and the steadtas: Ben. K. Pallen are the only ones re- Ipnining. We bave heard of but cighty cases of yellow fever all told, with twcnty-three deaths, ieav- inv fiity-.cven people sick. Where’s your epidemic? The police only scoop an occasional drunk. Pecple are so frightened about yellow fever that they baven’t got spirit enough even to assault and batter anybody. President Is!and, at the old Quarantine grounds, would bea healthy place for a camp. it would be isolated from the city, and could be eas‘ly supplied by mver. The Medical Socicty of Shelby county met lastnight. The cociety was opposed tode claring the feveran epidemic, such a declara- tion being regarded as premature. Two citizens walking up Main street, near Geyoro, last evening, heurda little girl sing- ing soime nurlery me'ody, the sound coming irom athird story window. ‘‘Well,’’ said one of the 1ecn, *‘it is a pleasure to hear somebody singing, now thut the city is deseried und des- olate.’’ Hundreds of citizens have pecked their household eoods and gods, their lares and pe- nutes, intO wagons and have moved off into the country some ten or more miles from the city. They sre safe outthere, as much £o as if they were clinbing mountuins in. East Tennes- see or disporting themselvesin fhe waves at Long Lranch. The experts will have to cometo the conclu- sion tbat this little spurt of fever had its origin Like Hamlet, ‘‘it is native here and to the manor born.’’ The newspaper reporters know this to be a fact, evenifthe medical ex- perts donot. Butthen a medical expert can- not be expecicd to know evel ything. The rural darky, who fattened on free ra- tions and no work in Memphis last summer, has again arrived, and be talks of free rations with a gladness that is refreshing the free-ration vision will tade tiom his aston- | ished gaze ere Many days roll away into the past, and he will return to his country cabin just as a Zulu does to his kraal. - — — THE ONE TOPIC IN ST. LOUIS, There is only one topie Of éVerybody’s lips at present, and thatis the yellow fever. It is the all-absorbing, theme and there is no apprehension and anxiety mani- fested. At the same time, sympathy is expressed for the unfortv nate city | of Meinphis and its sorely stricken inhabitants. The number of Memphians now {jn town is very iarge—neaily 2,000. They are residine atthe various hoteis and scattered through the city at the various boarding Some ot these refugees have houses. sullered | great discomforts and undergone privations in fieeing from the plague center. Ladies and | Gelicate children experienced the greatest in- conveniences, and of course suffered propor- tionatelyv, as they were less alle to bear the hardships to which were exposed. It was a struggle between all to get away from the doomed city. left Memphis were literally packed with passengers and the boats were crowded trom stemto stern; all fared alike. | The rich had to patup with accommodations to which they were unaccustomed; ina flight for lite little respect is paid to money. Ofcourse, having so many refugees in the city, every now and then a wild rumor is start- |, edto the effect thatthere were cases of vellow fever either in some hotel or in some boarding house. Directly the rumor is investivated it proves to be absolutely withont foundation. If a Memphian refugee only hus an attack ot sick headache, popular imagination immediately runs riot and distorts itintoa virulent attack of the yellow scourge. There is no chance now of the existence of anv case of yellow fever without the health authorities being notified thereof. The mort stinvent regulations are enforced and the most vigilant supervision exercised. Tius tnere is not the least occusion forany alarm. The city has never been in such a healthy con- dition as at the present time and every pre- caution has been adopted against the possi- bility ot infection from the dreaded disease. To be Rigidly Enforced. The Board of Health to-day arrived at e most important decision. It has been resoived to prohibit the landing of any passengers or of any baggage inthe city from any steamboat that has stopped at Memphis or otherinfected dis- tricts. Heretofore the steamer has been de- tained at quarantine, and the passengers if found to be free from any disease, allowed to come on to St. Louis. The vessel would be detained over nizht and the baggage fumigated, when it would be allowed to proceed to its destination. All this is stopped now; a most rigid quarantine willbe entorced. The sick willbe placed in the quarantine hospital and the vessel and other passengers detained there or sent on to some other point. St. Louis may now be con- sidered as closed against any more’ refugees by river. The Ouachita Belle. The Ouachita Bele left Memphis on Wednes- day, loaded with treight and a living cargo of over six hundred refugees. This steamer will be detained at quarantine. Whatwill be done wish the 600 assengers? isaconundrum for the Board of lealth to answer. They will not be allowed to land hefe,in view ot to-day’s action of the beaith autborities, A Passenger on the Coahoma. At the Board of Health office this morning a reporter met a young man, a printer, who had just arrived from Quarantine. He left Mem- phis last Monday night and came up the river On board the Coahoma. He describes Memphis asa deserted city. Not more than 15,000 people are lettin the town, and of this number only 3,000 are whites. The stores are all closed, and no business what- ever is being transacted. The peo- oe are penic-stricken, and every one s endeavoring to leaye the city. With the ex- ception of the authorities, doctors and nurses the inhabitants are living {n constant terror of the yellow tever. ey avoid all intercourse with each other and try to keep themselves as isolated as possible. The Board of Health. A visittothe Board of Health office this morning disclosed extraordinary activity amongst the officials. Supplies were being laid in and dispatched to Quar- antine; regulations were issued, and everybody was busy. A long consultation was held between the Mavor and Com Franeis. It was evident that every P int gs mr was being taken that was idered necessary. The Elen G.

All the po- licemen are instructed to report daily to the Chief as to the condition of the alleys andsiums ontheir beats. All nuisances, ete., have to be promptiy removed. No lentency is shown in this respect atall. Heapsof filth and garbage are carted,instantly away. A most caretul su- vervision of the streets is keptup by the po- ice. The Hotels. At all of the hotels there are quite a number of Memphis refugees. The rotundas are thronged every day by them, and they are easily recoguiza- ble. Pivsicians from the Health Office inspect the hotels daily, and demand to sec unyv of the inmates who may be sick. Thus, should anyof the guests be attacked by the fever, it wou!d be impossible for them to avoid deteci‘on, and they would be immediately taken in charge by the Board of Health. The large bourding- houses in town are also carefully supervised by the physictans. MEMPHIS GUESTS. The following Memphians arrived here to-day and registered as follows: At the Planters’: Jerome Hill and family, J. Pr, Day, J. R. Day and Miss Jennie Day. Atthe Lindell: L. B. McFarland and wife, John B. Robinson, J. L. Robinson, Jr., and William Gay. Refugees in St. Louis. It is estimated that nearly 2,000 Mempbians are now inthis city. Nearly 3,000 more have passed through en route to places further north or east. <As already s.ated many of the merchants from Memphis have opened stores in this city for the continua”ce of their business. In the afierrooij along Fourth and Fifth streets the Mempbian ladies and their escorts may be observ’ d promenading in great numbers. The majority of the retugees are wellto do, oratleast able to pay their way, butthere are several hund- red who are almost nenniless. Many o. them have been trying to secure employment heve, A Talk With a Coahoma Passenger. Major William Gay, of the wholesale grocer ifirm of Hi)l, Fontaine & Co., of Memphis, was n the :otunda ot the Lindell Hotel to- day. Major Gay, it will be remembered, had charge of acamp of 800 poor people last yeur, of which number only fifty-four died. Mr. Gay arrived onthe steamer Coahoma and described the trip as follows: ‘*‘We left Memphis at 5:30 o’clock Morday evening with 750 souls on board. We could make nine miles an hour, but, on account of the large number aboard, Capt. Lee consented to not make wore than seven, and thereby lessen the chances for accidents. When we arrived at Cairo we were hailed by amanin a tug, who, atter asking where we hailed from and had ws any sickness on board, told us we could not land there. We took on coal and provisions and came to Cape (Girar- deau, where some of the passengers lived. A number of people assembied on the river bank and = askea us where we were from. They told us we e uid not land untilthey saw their Councilman. Int. ar time some one threw & copy ef . - Memphis Appeal and Avalanche ashore; which they set about kicking intothe river as if exch paper contained a thousand cases of yeclow tever. Councilmun could not be did not land. We had sickness on board but a cierk whe fainted anadtwochbildren,who were wet by the rain.’’ Mr. Gay said if he was not uble to consummate sowe arrungement he had on haud he would return to Memphis and do his utmost for the the Coahoma, cngaged the se:vices of Dr. E. Miles Willit, one of the most experienced physicians of Memphis. Mr. Gay said that Health Commissioner Francis treated the Mewpdiens on the Coahoma at Quarantineina most gentlemanly munner. Italian Laborers. ie Quite noticeable has been the influx of Ital- ian laborers from Memphis. Over 300 of them have arrived inthis city, and the majority of thein have obtained work. Many of them have been engaged by the railroad compa- nies in East St. Louis to handle the freight in piace of the lete strikeis; many more work on the levee handling grain. They area quiet, peaceable set of men, mostiy unskilled labor ers, and do not appear to havé had much diffi- culty in finding employment. To-Day’s Mortality. Up to noon to-day there were fifteen burial permits issved by the board. The following is the list: William Ward, 1 year,cholera infantun; Ar- thur lieger, 3 months, gustro-enteritis; Maria Nottmann, 1 year, meningitis; Viola Schmidt, 6 months, congestive fever; Lilly Michaelis, 4 months, intestinal hemorrhage ; un- known man, unknown; John Her- mann, 1 year, cholera infintum; Annie Meyer, 13 days, cholera infantuin; Wil- liam Ward, 10 months, gastro-cnteritis; Louise Machian, 2 vears,diphtbveria; Catherine Greers, 1 year, summer complaint; Anton Bergield, 41 years, cholera morbus: Joseph A.

The directors of the Merchants’ Exchange have granted the Memphian merchants who are in this city the privilege of admittance on ‘Change for a period of ninety days. Several of the merchants availed themsetves of this per- mission and were noticed on ‘Change this morning. They are loud in their praises of the hospitality of St. Louis merchants. It is prob- avie that nearly a dozen ofthe Memphis mer- chants will locate here permanently. Quarantining Against Memphis.

There is no freightin the hold. The boat came out of White River, and STOPPED IN MEMPHIS twelve hours. All the passengers were Mem- phians, butfrom the unstricken central part otthetown. Anumber of the refugees who were interviewed stated that there Lud been no sickness of any kind among them, and they had been in no houses where any infection was present. t lV. B. Price, of the Memphis Avalanche, states if he was in Memphis he would not leave again. A POINTED QUESTION. A number of the refugees were asked if they were-sure they were not carrying the virus with them. The answer was they didn’t know, bat didn’t think so, Allare PROVIDED WITH BEALTH CERTIFICATES, signed by G. D.

If the Republicans had heen as economical during the years preceding 1875 as the Democrats have forced them,to be since then, the public debt would have been re- duced $345,000,000 more, without imposing one dollar of additional taxes on the peo- ple,”’—[Tom Ewing’s speech last night. mocracy for four years past has louse of Representatives, which controls the appropriations of public money, and in that time appropriations for the ex- penses of the Government, exclusive of in- terest on the public degt, have been $604,- 619,000.

We believe it was the present English Premier who, when.a candidate for Parlia- ment and asked at a meeting what issue he ran or ‘‘stood on,’’ replied, ‘‘I stand on my head.’’ John Sherman, as an open and pushing candidate for the presidency, stands large- ly on his cheek. He has received more credit for the of resumption than other man. Still cessful resumption is his capital and the SUC- any Suc- cess he claims more. issue which is to lead him into the White House, Now, we are glad, very giad, of the suc- cess of resumption. We are ready, very ready, to admit that John Sherman is no fool. shown very considerable ability at the head We unhesitatingly admit that he has of the Treasury. But, while this is true, it is equally true that resumption would have taken place with any other man in Sherman’s place, that it was decreed by law—the law of the land and the still more tinportant law of nature— and brought about by the good fortune and force of circumstances and not by John Sherman. John Sherman himself admits this. John Sherman himself publicly contra- dicts himself. John Sherman himself declares his claims for the success of resumption as a sham and humbug. We printed his *‘great’”’ but Portland speech in the Post-Dispatcu of yesterday. We it able, it ‘proves precisely the opposite of what its really able call because author intended. John Sherman’s evidence that resumption is not John Sherman at all, as the Post-DispaTcu speech is conclusive due to long ago asserted. What, thén, really sumption? We will answer with Mr. Sherman’s own brought about re- words: The increase of our exports of domestic merchandise since the period of the panic is without example in our history. In the year ending June 50, 1875, the amount of our ex- ports was $505,035,459. Inthe year ending June 1, 1879, the amount of our exports was $699 618,935. In the five years preceding the panic our exports were $2,015, 702.648; and during the past five years they were $2,999,- 197,602. Here alone then we have a difference of nearly one thousand millions of dollars in the national balance sheet for five years. What did Mr. Sherman this extraordinary and amount of cur exports? Nothing. What did he contribute to the raw products and manufactured articles which this country exported in the last five years and for which it received the tremen- dous sum of $2,999,197,652? Nothing. But 5,000,000 bales of cotton every year represent $250,000,000 per annum for the cotton crop of the South or $1,250,000,000 in five years for this one exclusively ‘‘rebel”’ product alone. Here are the figures taken from Mr. Sher- man’s speech: The cotton crop of the United States, dur- ing the year 1878, was larger than any previous crop in the history of the country. Our exports of cotton increased from 1,200,- 000,000 pounds in 1873 to 1,608,000,000 pounds in 1878. The quantity of wool produced increased from 158,000,000 pounds in 18738 to 207,000,- 000 in 1878. The total amount which went in- to consumption, including domestic produc- tion and imports, representing the manufac- ture of woolen goods in the United States, in- creased from 236,000,000 pounds in 1873 to 249,000,000 pounds in 1878. It may be stated generally that the internal commerce of the country shows a gradual increase of traffic since 1873—the improve- ment during the last year having been more rapid than during any preceding year since 1873. The tonnage of the great railroads from the East to the West, the most impor- tant highways of commerce in this country, shows an increase since 1878 of 37 1-2 per cent. The production of wheat and corn, the two. have to do with unprecedented leading cereal products of the country, which mite the principal part of our exp ot , indicates during the last fear a ‘‘Ws have had, moreover, for three years | " fii.

The industry and labor, the skill, econo- my and enterprise of the great American people, of forty-five millions of people, and not the cunning of any one man. Pro- ifn 8, Que ‘‘ALL the policies of the Republican party, though apparently differing widely in char- acter, are in fact closely related in purpose and effect. I believe them all to be part of a general tendency of the classes which con- trol that party to practically subvert popu- lar government. The steps are first to de- stroy the independence of the masses by immensely increasing the burdens of debts and taxes, and by cutting off the opportu- nities and rewards of labor, and by the same act swell the wealth and power of the favored classes, and then, by allying the money powerto illimitable forces of gov- ernment patronage and plunder, to control elections by bribery and force and pragti- cally subvert the freedom of the ballot.”’— [Ewing’s speech last night. Tue Board of Health, after mature de- liberation, this morning resolved that no more boats from Memphis or other infect- ed points should be allowed to land at St. Louis. Passengers will not be permitted to enter the city until they lave been sub- jected to an actual quarantine of sufficient their entire freedom from _ infection.

Secession held that the Union might be divided whenever any State be- lieved that the Constitution had been yvio- lated. On that theory the Republic was but a rope of sand. Consolidation demands that the Federal Government shall exercise all powers which the dominant party may think expedient. On that theory all boun- daries of federal power, so carefully marked by our forefathers, will be obliterated, and we shall have one great imperial govern- ment, to which States will have the same relations that counties and townships now have to States. Secession would have petty but free would broken up the Union into republics; consolidation swallow States and sink liberty in an empire.”— (Tom Ewing’s speech last night.

Louisville Courier-Journal (Dem.): Ex- Senator Henderson, of Missouri, is tiying to make some wheels tor the Sherman boom in his State. He confesses that it is up hill work tor John, and it thust be. Pittsburg Chronicle (Rep.): The quarantine law is a singular surrender of the Democratic State rights doctrine in that it gives the national authorities almost unlimited power to fight the yellow fever, and leading members of the board say they will not be allowed to ex- ercise their power. Chicago Tribune (Rep.): It ts time to bury the corpses of anti-resumption and flat money. here can be no more fitting and timely occa- sion for such burial, and for the oration over the ghastly remains, than at the last resting place of Tom Ewing. The political‘ tomb will be opened for his interment in October, and anti-resumption and flat money should be laid away with him, that as they, living, were united, so in death they may not be separated. Baltimore Gazette (Dem.): There is mach truth in the maxim that ‘‘He who excuses him- self accuses himself.’’ The same may be said ofacounter accusation. The effort toconvict Mr. Tiiden of traud ia attempting to buy up electoral votes is asort of excuse for Hayes, who actually did buy them and paid for them in fat offices. He who excuses himself in this style does mofe than accuse himself. It is a sortof confession when oneis accused of a swindle to say ‘‘You are another.’’ Yet this is about what the New York Times has just done. In its yesterday’s issuc it devotes ten columns to proving that Mr. Tilden bought tue electoral votes of New Jersey, Connecticut, New York and Mississippi. New York World (Dem.): During the last six months, though the bold, bad Democrats have been overturning the Government, disbanding the army, repudiating the national debt, in- flating the currency, starving the Administra- tion, puttingin peril the great results of the llion and the Re- publican exodus. At this rate the Democrats will save the country unless something is done to head them off at once. Chicago Times (Ind.}: Thé speech of Secre- tary Sherman at Boston, on yesterday, may be regarded as significant as indicating the direc- tion of the ‘‘boom,’’ of which it in some sort marks the opening and which is setian motion to carry him into the White Honse. The speech is brief, but to the point,and will be neld most noteworthy tor the comparatively minor con- sequence it attaches to the financial policy of which he is the author and exponent, and upon which aless sagacious politician might have based his presidential aspirations. He did not belittle the work of resumption. But the un- der-current of his utterance tended in the di- rection of dismissing the financial question as practically eettied, or at least as a minor issue in the canvass of 1880. _ _-- oO MORNING NEWS CONDENSED.

Her busband had gone up stairs and the lady was preparing for sleep when ahe was horrified at sveing a man of medium size and wearing amask entirely over his ftaee en- terthe room. At first she could not summon courage to scream or give an alarm, and as soon as hesaw she was awake he attempted to blind her by tmrowing some powdered sub- stancein her face. Luckily, he mark, whereupon the lady screamed aud the burgiarran to another room. Mrs. Cameron ran out after him, when the villain struck her in the breast, felling her to the floor, and then evidently took refuge iu the cupboard, as aforesaid. The lady continued screaming, which alarm- ed the household and brought the officer, with the result we have stated. In escaping, the burglar left some silver napkin rings he had gathered together for booty, and also a paper button box containing a quantity of dark, powder-like pulverized pumice stone, part of which was used in his efforts to blind Mrs. Cameron. This burglar isevidently a professional vil- lain and a dangerous man to be at largeina community.

The strike among the Bast St. Louis railroad menisatanend. On yesterday the platform men on all the railroads, except the I. & St. L. and Vandalia, resumed work at the increased rates of $1.10 and $1.25aday. The Vandalia paid off at two o’clock yesterday, and discharged the men. The I. & St. L. also paid off, and took their men back to work until this afternoon, when they followed the example of the Vandalia and dis- charged all those who had been in the strike. This left both roads without a single man to handle freight except those taken from the machine shops, and these were not inclined to take the job from their fiiends and neighbors. Alexander Kessinger, the notorious agitator, who has been exhorting the strikers to hold out, and making himself conspicuous gen- erally, was arrested yesterday evening by a United States Deputy Marshal and taken to Springfleld. The attair created no excitement and but little regret,as it was generally consid- ered that he was a useless, troublesome man. The discharged men on the Vandalia and I, and St. L. got about $50 each, they not having received their pay for three months, So long deprived had they been of their money that this putthemina good humor, and they did not take their discharge as hard as they otherwise would have done. They were told to notcome about the depots, which order they, READILY COMPLIED WITH. When a reporter trom the POST-DISPATCH reached East St. Louis this morning there were no indications that cy strike had been in existence to the casual observer. At the west bound treight depot of the 1. &St. L. a number of ‘*greeners’’ were at work unloading cars and assorting the freight. Mr. Wright, the manin charge, said he was hiring inen wherever he could find them and doing the best he could under the circumstances. ‘‘Do you expect any further trouble?’’ asked the reporter. ‘*‘None atall. Itold the men when we dis- charged them that they must not come around the depot to disturb the men at work. I have not seen one of them here this morning except an old man who has been sick, and who came to get bis pay.’’ ‘*‘What do you believe the discharged men will do?’’ ‘‘They are mostly small property owners in East St. Louis, and will find work wherever they can. They are goodmen and I hateto part with them; one of them hus been with us sixteen years, and several have been here for quite a number of years.’’ ‘*Do they seem to take it hard?’’ ‘*Oh, ves;they feel pretty bad over it, but they will make no trouble. I told them if I heard of one of them making any trouble we would never give hiin anvthing to do again, and I mean what I say.’’ ‘‘Youthinkthen that vou may take them back atter a time?’’ ‘‘lexpect 50. We will see how we get along with these new men.’’ **How much are you paying the new men?’’ ‘They coulmence at $1 1v nm dav. I thought it tu do that way, and when I find any otthem deserve it 1 will advance them to $1 25. Buti can’t putthem up tothbat figure till lsee what they can do. There were about 25 men employed at the I. & St. L. depots and 128 at the Vundalia,so thut the whole number of dischurged platform men is 63—not enough to make much trouble, even it they were a mind to. AT THE VANDALIA DEPOT things looked very orderly. Mr. Malloy, tbe French gé@ntleman in charge, was sittinz down taking a rest. Ile said it was a good time to rest after the fatigues of the past few days. A number otf men, all from East St. Louis, were hired this morning and put to work at $1.25a day. They were good sound-looking fellows whe seemed to understand the busi- hess. Not one of the discharged men was to be seen around the depot this morning, and not the least trouble is expected. Those who have lost their places are taking it very philosoph- ically. Some of them were sitting around the saloons, but most of them were at home with their families, and were not to be seen on the streets. better _ The Coopers. The coopers’ strike continues. They are all confident the bosses will come toterms from the fact that by Thursday next, or possibly be- | fore, the supply of barrelsin the city will have but the | been exhausted. Tne millers are willing to pay the difference between the price now paid for barrels and the increased demand in wages by the strikers so that the proprietors of the cooper shops would lose nothing by yielding tothe demands of their men. This wasthe prevailing opinion at National Hall this morn- ing. ‘*If this is case why don’t your bosses yield?’’ queried the reporter, standing in the midst of a knot ofthe irreeon- cilables. ‘*Yale ’ave to ask um yerself,’’ was the-sug- gestive reply of a& young apprentice whose presence in the hall was the first step towards asserting the rights of labor. Acting upon this hint the reporter called on Mr. Thomas Jacobs, proprictor of a shop, cor- ner of Fifteenth and Wasb streets, that em- ploys from eighty to ninety hauds the year round. An interview with Mr. Jacobs ex- plained the situation as far as the bosses were concerned. These gentleinen are willing to in- crease the wages of tneir workmen, but do not wish to sign a contract binding them to pav certain wages for the period of one vear. The objection to this proposition is, that other cooper-shops may spring up in the interval and, should the city contaim any idle coopers, thev might there find employment for a compensation that woulda be tne means of decreasing the price in barrels, much to the loss ofemployers who paid con- tract wages. A provisointhe demand of the coopers that would compel all prospective shops to pay the same prices, or, in other words, the passage ot a sweeping resolution establishing uniform wages tor cooperage in the eity for the period stated, would be acceptable to the bosses, and the men could go to work to-morrow. Mr. Jacous said he wasin sympathy with the coepers, and believed their strike a just one. He was willing to doall he could to make it successful; thought the men had been too poorly paid for their labor, and was ready to sign the contract at any time. he principal business transacted in National Halithis morning was the passing of votes of thanks for pecuniary assistance received from different sources, and a few encouraging speeches from the members.

One night, in 1801, alittle girl about one year oid, was deposited in the drawer ofthe founaling hospital at Brest. She was dressed with much finery, and a note, attach- ed to her skirts, told that her name was So- lange, and that she would be reclaimed by her father. The claim was never made, however, and in due time the child was transferred to the orphan asylum, to be educated there. As she grew up she developed a most extraordi- nary beauty, but her intellect appeared to be very weak. and she suffered from frequent nervous fits. When she was tweive years oid she was sent out into the streets to sell flowers, and her beauty and modesty attractec many people’s good will, but she grew weaker and weaker, and at last she died. According to French custom,she was buried in an open cusket, and, as it was winter and the soil was frozen, sbe was laid into the grave, only covered with a thin layer of sand. During the night she awoke, and, pushing the sand away, she erept out from this grave. Not exactly understunding what haa taken place, she was not so very much frightened; buf, in crossing the glacis be- tween the cemetery and the tortifica- tions, she was suddenly stopped by the ou - cry, ‘‘Quivive,’’ and, asshe did not ans-er, the sentinel fred, and she feli tothe wrogn .

Smith, the wouild- be murderer of Mrs. Sterling, was called in the Criminal Court at 10:45 o'’ciock this morning under a motion for a new trial. The bar was thronged with attorneys, it being un- derstood that the success of the motion would depend upon the establishing of certain allegations made ag to Smith’s counsel, Messrs. Turner and Van lioorbeke, selling him ont tothe prosecution. On the calling of the case Judge Simmons arose and in behalfof Mr. Turner moved that the matter be continued until such a time as that gentleman could te present, adding that Mr. Turner was en route from New York and would arrive in the city either to-night or to-morrow morning, tully prepsredto refate all allegations made against him in this seri- ous charge. He bad been requested to say by Mr. Van Hoorbeke's friends Ghat that gentie- mun was in St. Paul but would return at once and meet the charges in conjunction with Mr, Turner. Judge Cline on behalf of the prosecution thought it no more than right to afford Messrs. Turner and VonHr orbeke an opportunity to be present at the investigation, andJ.J. c- Bride, who appeared for the defense, assented to the prc position of a consi: nm wuce contrary to general expectation, Judge Langhlin, atthe close of remarks by respective counsel], continued the case until Tuesday morning, saying that a charge which involved the standing’ of two attorneys, and which, if proven, would disgrace them forever, certainly called for a short continuance, and that it would be granted with the understand- ing thatit should be thorough in every senso of the word. i COFF AT HOME He Returns Empty-Handed from His Tesan Tour After Goldsoll.

[From the Washington Post. ] The army retired list is to be recruited in September by a number of éfficers who will then have reached the age of sixty-two, and considerable interest is being manifested in . filling the vacancies thus created. Several of the officers named for retirement vrefer to continue in activeservice, it is said, but Hayes insists they shal¥fall back and make room for favorites of his. \ In his nominations, from the very beginning of his fraudulent term, he has shown a shameful wart of regard for the morale of the army. Civilians, and in some cases of bad character, have been ‘‘jumped’’ over honorable officers who had served for years. Only a few weeks ago, out of four nominations for paymasters with the rank of Major, three were civilians who had never seen apy military service, andone at least was of very questionable reputation. Adjutant- General Townsend is marked for retirement in September, and General Drum, Assistant Ad- jutant-General, is entitled to the successer- ship by right of seniority of rank; but Hayes has another oflicer selected for the honor. He proposes to appoint General Whipple to the position if he can get the corsent of the Senate. General Whipple is only a Licu- tenant-Colonel, while Gen. Drum is a Colo- nel, but Whipple served as Chief of Staff for Gen. Sherman for vears, and the Sherman in- flence controls Hayes in this piece of favorit- ism. Gen. Drum, besides being entitled by rank and law to the promotion, is certainly familiar with the duties of the office, while Whipple knows nothing about the position or its requirements. “The nomination will be bitterly contested in the Senate, and the indications are that Whipple will not be con- firmed, even though Drum may not get the place. The latter isa Pennsylvanian and has the friendship vf both Senators from that State, who wil resent any slight put upon him. Logan will fight W hipple to the bitter end. He has not forgotten or forziven —and swears be never will—the contemptu- ous manner in Which bis services as a General were treated of in **Sherman’s Memoirs,’’ and Whipple is credited with having written that book. Logan and Frank Blair were sent down to history as mere ‘ ‘political generals, *? rood in a windy campaign on the stump, but useless in war. Logan prides himself, and justly too, upon his military services. and will never vote to confirm the man who decried them. He will make Whipple fecl his power, and towetber with the other adverse influences in the Senate will, in all saaien vite, defeat him if meminated. ‘The Senate Military Com- mittee, with a single exception, favor Gen. Drum’s promotion, and the man who gets the place must through the hands of that committee, There is a contest for the position of Surgeon- General, to be made vacant by retiremeut in September, that will also probably be carried to the Senate. Dr. Crane, the Assistant Sur- geon-General, is entitled to the promotion, upon the retirement of Dr. Barnes, but Dr. Baxter. Medical Purveyor, is trying to jump over his .head and alight into the vac ancy. Baxter began to get signers to a petition for bis appointment as soon as the retirement of Barnes wae whispered, and _ the first name he sought and got was that of Citizen Foster, Radieal candidate for Governor of Ohio. He next got the autographs of Gar- field, Young, Butterworth and other Buckeye Radicals, no doubt thinking that would fix him with Hayes. Dr. Crane has pot, it seems, made any efforts in his own behalf, being content to rest upon his legal right to promotion. Dr. Alexander, now on duty at West Point, is also an applicant for the ap- pointment. The names, of Foster, Garfield and other leading Kadicals have given the Baxter application a political phase, and if he goes Lefore the Senate with this sort of 2 case he may come to grief. Gen. Ingalls is doing bis best to crowd Gen. Meigs, Quartermaster-Ge neral, upon the re- _ tired list, in the be lief that he would step’ into ' his shoes; but just when it is probable that the pushing process will prove successful a to Meigs, another candidate for the position puts in an appleation inthe person of Gen. ’ Hazen, who was recently summarily ordered back to his regiment by Gen. Sherman for expressiag himself too plainly in a communi- cation to the latter. Just before leaving for Europe, Senator Edmunds sent a note to Mr. Hayes requesting him not to retire Paymastey-General Alyord until he (Edmunds) should return, but this request has not been listened to, and Alvord must go with the others.

Its base is red sandstone for fifty feet, . above which the rugged trap rises for another hundred feet. On the river side the hill pre- sents alfnost a sheer precipice of one bundred and fifty feet, sloping a trifle near the top. For some weeks past James Finnegan, a econ- tractor. has had two or three gangs of men at work Liasting the trap rock off the side of this mountain, to use in macadamizing Mill street, near by.. The foreman in charge was John Coffey, an Irishman of thirty-five vears, liy- ing in Spruce street. Yesterday at noon Cof- fey went to the summit of the hill to rest un- der aclump of stunted cedars. ° About 12:30 ’clock be rose, probably to rejoin his ‘men, In rising, his foot slipped upon a loose stone, and a moment Jater he fell head- long over the side of the monntain, struck 20 feet below, bounded into the air, and then wenttumbling over and over through the Sheer descent of fully 130 feet. His body struck with a dull thud upon the rocks at the base, bounded up, and went rolling down to still deeper depths, to the very foot of the hill, and Within a short distance of the basin below the falls. None of the men saw the accident. The only spectator of the horrid accident was City Physici ‘lian Myers, who happened to be driving in the renee at the time. When found, the body presented a sickening specta- cle—crushed and mangled beyond recognitien, with the brains spattering the rocks all about. Coroner Warner was summoned and viewed the remains; the cause of death was teo ob- vious to require investigation byajury. De- ceased , leay es a widow and three children. Many Paterson people are anticipating a repe- tition of yesterday’s harror next month, when two men are to attempt to walk on atight-rope across the river, from the falls heights on one side to the very spot whence Coffey fell yester- day. A like feat, however, bas been success- fully accomplished once or twice.

Last suinmer she cleared $6,000 in thirtcen trips, occupying nine weeks, and carrying grain to this port at twocents per bushel. The boat is | light on fuel, and is managed economically.

MAGGIE I. couldn't get away yesterday; the elevutor folks nake much effort to unload ber, but she will get away to-day.

Itis 65 feet long, 12 tect wide, draws one foot, has one boiler, and her eylinders are 6x24 inches. Jack thinks she’ll make ten miles an hour up stream. Thenew boat has a full saloon cabin elegantly furnished, and she cost about $6,000. On board will be carried Mr. Lucas’ elegant carriage and pair of horses. Tim Fincher is her engineer. his | REED*s Gilt Edge Tonic tones the system. FIN ANOIAL. Business at the various leading banks to-day was without material change trom that recent- ly prevailing. Aside from tne offerings on ao- count of the shipment and carrying of crain and produce transactions were mainly routine and unimportant. Currency orders were hardly so large as yesterday, although this is not taken as indicating any perman- ent talling off in the demand. Exchange is still a dri and not quotable. There was a little more life in securities, but it wasnot of much importance. Small sales were made of governments, railway bonds and miscellaneous securities, nothing, however, being of noteworthy character. ee Stocks and ponds. Corrected hed L. A.
