By Western Associated Press. MOBILE, August 13.—Quarantine restric- tions against New Orleans will be removed afe- ter Friday. The Future of Memphis. [From the Huntsville Alabamian. | That real estate will, for'a time, be more or less depreciated in Memphis is quite probable, but that her business will be seriously or per- manentl)jdaniaged by the present development of yellow fever, is sim»ly ridiculous, and any merchant who has prospered there in the past will make aé great mistake if he makes anything but a temporary removal of his business to any other city. The history of Havana and Vera Cruz, the native places of the fever, and ot many large cities of India, that have often been decimated by cholera and the plague, contradict the presumption that such visita- tions inflict any lasting injury upon the regu- lar trade and business of acommanding point. This, too, with the assumption granted that the sanitary condition of such places will be the same, and that the liability to annual epi- demics will continue. We are satisfied that this will not be the case at Memphis. Not- withstanding the present visitation, and the stereotyped talk about the filth of Bay ou Gay- ofo, which is grossly exaggerated, we know that a vast deal has been done since last fall to cleanse the city. That the sinks an@ water- closets, which are under and forming a part of many houses there,should have kept the germs of the disease aBove freezing point last winter is not atall strange. Let these,with the rotten pavements, be abolished next winter, and Memphis with a quarantine will be as little lia- bie for future epidemics as any other Southern city. rer people are but true to themselves, and will ac- tively second the efforts of Dr. Porter, Presi- dent of the Board of Directors of the Taxing aeeaee t, the present trouble may not be with- resuits. At all events, our friends assured be it drummed “4 mie. surroundings that to the timid and despondent ulone seem dark and hopeless. Memphis Brevities. {From the Avalanche.! Infected bedding should be destroyed or pro- perly tumigated. The greater number ofthose sick with yel- low fever are in a convalescent state, and will recover. Peoplein camps complain these cold nights on account ofthe wantof biankets and other bedding. Our absent men of wealth should give freely to the poor and sick oftheir city for sweet charity’s sake. : When Memphis has an acclimated popula- tion who will not run away every year,she will then advance rapidly on the road of prosperty. When you see a voy, / sitting out on the por- ticoes or front steps inthe evening you may rest assured they have had yellow teverin lormer years. A physician reported a case of yellow fever to the Board of Health yesterday,and in his re- port he stated that the patient had fever like ‘*seven bells.’’ No yellow fever thermometer could grade such a temperature. Numbers of infants and older children can be eeen daily on the streets. Their parents have had the fever, and they are ready,if necessary, to nurse the ehildrenif they should be stricken cown and thereby add to the list of acclimated citizens. In very many of the houses where families are sick with tever this year, the 1esidents either died or had the tever last year. This,of itselt, would go to prove that such houses were not properly ventilated during the winter months. An effort is making to quarantine Memphis and seal her up hermetically during the fever epidemic, so that Nashville, Louisville and other cities can secure her trade aimostto her very gates. Thisisnot exactly generous, but is exuctly the opposite. A physician stated to our reporter, yester- day, that he visited one house in which all the fumily was sick with the fever except a little gir], who was sitting onthe floor crying, but on feeling her pulse and taking her temp?ra- ture, he discovered that she too was attacked by tLe plague that is no respecter of persons. The National Board of Health and the State Board of Health are more concerned about the country outside of Mempbis than that inside. That is allright. Memphis must take care of herself, epidemic or no epidemic. Our own focal Board of Llealth is of more importance to usthana tiLousand State or National boards just how.

Heavily Shackled, He Walks Qut of the Union Depot, Leaving a Colorado Sheriff and Deputy to Mourn His Flight. Richard J. Derry, an Arkansas murderer, being returned to Little Rock under charge ot Sheriff Shaffer and Deputy Sheriff Hen- Gerson, ot Fremont county, Colorado, made his escape from the Univun Depot at about 8 o'clock this morning trom under the eyes of his custodians, and has not yet been apprehended. The escape is one of the boldest on record, eclipsing entirely all former oecurrences in that line. The party of three arrived at the Union De- pot fiom Kansas City this morning, and went into the gentlemen’s waiting room to await the departure of atrainfor Little Rockover the St. Louis, Iron Mountain and Southern Rail- way. The room was crowded with arrivalsand departures by the morning trains, and Derry, heavily shackled, Was the observed of ail ob- servers. The bustle and confusion about the cdepct aroused Sheriff Shafter’s curiosity, and, desirous of seeing where everybody was going to and coming from, he strolled out on to the plattorm, leaving Derry in close conversation with two inquisitive strangers, guarded by Deputy Henderson. The Sheriff from the Jjand of magnificent distances remained out fora few minntes oniy and then returned to the waitin g 1com to find neither Henderson nortbe prisoner. Thinking he had through mistuke walked into the wrong room he went into the ladies’ apartments and there fuund his deputy, who anxiously inquired the WHEREABOUTS OF DERRY. Shaffer put the same to Deputy Henderson, and then § it came out that the latter had been laLoring uncer the impression that the prisoner had gone out with the tormer for an airing and haa paid no further attention to him. Tien the seareh was tuken up, each of the two curs- ing their simple follv. It was by that time twenty minutes pust 8 o’clock, and Henderson presumed that Derry had walked out some- thing like a half before. After searching and making numerous in- quiries for another half hour, one ot the depot employes was tound who remembered secing a shackled man, accompanied by two others, assisted on board the out-bound train on the Ohio and Mississippi Railway. He had thought them two officers und paid the matter no far- ther attention, as prisoners fromfall parts and portions of the country are seen at the-Unton Depot, arriving or departing on alinost every train, under the espionage of sheriffs and mar- shals. This was at leasta clew obtained, and on further inquiry it was elicited that the train in question hud departed tor Jin - cipnati at 7:50 o'clock. The con- ductor in charge of the train was telegraphed at oneof the little way-stations instructions to see if a man answering Derry’s description was aboard. In a few minutes an answer was flashed back thut no man ot the description sent was on his train.

I¢ is probably through fear of having to share the reward offered tor Derry’s apprehension with the authorities here that Sheriff Shatfer has not asked for assistance in the search fur the missing nan. Derry, who made such a clever escape this morning, is wanted at Pine Bluff. Ark., for murder. Hewas the Deputy Sheriff of Joffer- son county uptothe 2ist of last February, when he Sheriff quesision KILLED WM. H. DAVIS and fledthe State. Onthe night in question Derry, who was intoxicated, went into 0’Con- nell’s salocn, at Pine Biuff, and met Davis, a well-known gambler. They went back into the card room adjoining and sat down to a game of poker. Derry lost heavily and finaily, accusing Davis of cheating bim., arose trom the tavie, drew his revolver, and fired two shots into Davis’ brain, killing him instantly. He was arrested at once, but made his escape and eventually succeeded in reaching Leadville, where Sheriff Shaffer discovercd him. The Sheriff begana corre- spondence with the Arkansas authorities, which resuitedin his arresting Derry at Leadville last Friday and taking up the return,which was so abruptly terminated this morning. As Derry was very popular at Pine Bluff tne supposition is that he managed to communi- cate the fact of his arrest to fmends, who were in waiting here for the express purpose of aiding him to make his escape. How longa time will elapse beiore his recapture cannot be surmised, and as Sanders, hatless and voat- less, evaded the St. Louis detectives, Derry stands as fair 2 chance of escaping a couple of Colorado ofiicials.

DAVIS AT NEW ORLEANS. He Declines a Statement About the Dorsey Will and the Mississippi Senatorship. [From the New Orleans Picayune,Ang. 7.] Mr. Jefferson Davis, accompanied by Mrs. Davis, was registered at the 5t. Charles Ho- telon yesterday. During the forenoon he was engaged in attending to some business mat- ters, and it was not uatil the afternoon that a representative of this paper was able to have an interview with him. Mr. Davis was found in the rotunda in conversation with a friend. *‘*Mr. Davis,’’ remarked the reporter, ‘‘the Picayune desires an interview with you.’’ Jj ‘*An interview with me? That is something I never allow, and you ought to know it by this time,’’ was the reply, ‘‘whilea kindly smilie appeared on the speaker's face. ‘*] bave used the wrong word perhaps. What we wish isto direct your attention to certain allegations in regard to the will of Mrs. Dorsvy, made by the Northern and Western press, and to get a statement from you as to their truth or falsity,’’ explained the reporter. ‘*I must certainly decline to say anything whatever about my private affairs,’’ was Mr, Davis’ yery docideud answer. ''gutthese reflections are of so grave a na- tvre it was thought you might care to answer them. Have you read the stories allu‘led to?’’ ‘‘Thave read some, butit would take up my entire time to read them all.’’ And Mr. Davis laughed as if amueed at the idea. ‘*Then am I to understand you positively de- cline to make any statement?’’ ‘*You are. Now, put yourself in my place and see if you would, under the sam? circum. stances, do what you ask me to.’”’ ‘‘There’s one topic about which you will probably feel no delicacy in speaking. and that is your autobiography. It is generally believed that itis nowein the hands of the Appletons and will be soon publisned.’’ ‘*That stutement,’’ said Mr. Davis, ‘‘has been made py the Herald, but Major Walthall wrote aoa denial of it which they didn’t have the courtesy to publisb,’’ ‘*Then the work is not completed?’’ ‘*l only wish it was, a8 80 Many people write to me for agencies; itis annoying. It is im- possible to tell when it will be finished. The loss of my papers and my ill-heaith have seriously retarded its ah gh ge 8 ‘*You spoke of the loss oi your what ao you refer?’’ ‘*‘I mean the destruction of documents aad private papers during and at the close of the war.’’ In the preparation of his work Mr. Davis was unceérstood to state that he hud no secretary but rather an assistant, in the person of Major Walthall, who lives about a mile and a half from Beauvoir. Mr. Davis writes out the man- uscript, to which notes and references are ap- pended, which Major Walthall looks up and coliates. Inthe language of Mr. Davis, ‘‘Ma- jor Walthall having been @ newspaper man is well qualified to discharge that important task.’’ The reporter referred to the fact that one of the Miss:ssippi Senatorsbips would soon be vacant, and asked the point-blank question: ‘*Mr. Davis, are you a candidate lor the posi- tron?’’ The question seemed to annoy the gentleman interregated, whovery courteously demanded: ‘‘By what right do you undertake to cuatechise me?" : The answer was that the anestion of the Sen- atorsbip bad been very thoroughly discussed, and was one in which the public felt the deep- est interest, and any declaration by Mr. Davis would be eagerly received. He remarked that he didn’t see what interest the pubhe could hav in him or his actions. ‘*My chief reason tor asking is to get some- thing definite, asit has been stated that you had authorized the statement you were nota candidate.’’ ‘‘Thatisnews tome. Where did you Fg ‘*In one ot the Mississippi papers, and I be- lieve it was Very generaliy copied throughout the State.’”’ ‘*‘Indeed!’’ exclaimed Mr. Davis; ‘‘why,l hive never authorized any one to speak tor nme.’’ ‘*Then a false impression has gone abroad, and I should like to coi1ect it. Are you a cun- didate tor the Senatorship?’’ ‘*] am not. I have been elected to the United States Senate three times and appointed once, and I have never yet been a candidate for the position.’’ ‘*You mean thenthat you are not a candi- date, but at the same time you cannot control the Legisijature if it chooses to el—’’ ‘*l’d hardly go as faras thut,’’ interrupted papers; to see the whole prefer | Mr. Davis. ‘‘Moreover, when I wish to mukea declaration of iny position I shall do it myself and directly totbe people interested, and you can rest assured thut it will be putin such plain languuge there will be no misunderstanding its meaning.’’ ae —_— THE BUNTSMAN’S HORN. Royal Sport Among Worthy Beasts—An lowa Diana, Who Leads the Chase and Slays the Klik. [Hot Springs (Wy.) Cor. of Chariton (lowa) Leader. | Gne of your lady residents is, at this writing, ranked as a heroine by the natives ot this wild, both whites and Indians. Miss Maggie Fore- man, whocame to the mountains afew days since te visit relatives, has accomplished a feat of which few hunters can boast. Miss Foreman came to the Springs, which are situated twenty-eight miles above Fort Steele on the headwaters of the North Platte, with her sister, to spend a few days in the very heart of the wild country. Mr. vim Adams, a noted hunter and scout, ac- companied the party as guide and general pro- tector. Mr. Adatms,who is Miss Foreman’s brother-in-law, wus raised in Mount Pleas- ant, in your State, and came Westin the early days of the Union Pacific Railroad. Being of an adventurous disposition, he drifted about among military posts and Indian villages, and he is to-day one of the most daring and bravest scouts that ever followed a trail in the Indian country. On Tuesday last Adams started on a broncho toride with a scout toa surveying party on Medicine Bow Mountains, leaving his handsome trained horse with us. Adams had been gone but alittle while when Miss F, expressed adesire to ride her broth- er’s horse around. She galloped around the camp tor a while, and was about to dismount, when a shot was heard about 500 yards up the river, anda momentlater an enormous Diack elk came dashing out of a ravine, with Jim Adams a short distance behind in tull chase. The elk was wounded, but yet able to runat great speed. The writer, in sport only, never dieaming she would undertake it, handed Miss F. a large army Colt’s revolver, and told herto goand help cateh the enormous ani- mal. Miss Foreman took the weapon and startec toward the elk, which was but a short distance away atthat moment. And now be- gan an exciting chase. The horse was thor- oughly trained for such work by Mr. Adams, and us soon as started upon the trail dashed forward with frightful speed. Adams urged his borse forward ina vain endeayor to over- take ber, but the little broncho which he be- strode was no match tor his own favorite steed. The elk started torthe mouth of a canon about a mile distant, through which it could reach the higher mountains. We felt reatly alarmed for Miss Foreman’s safety, believing that, in the excitement of the chase, ber horse had became unmanageable, until she was seen to tire therevolver at the elk, and then we knew thatshe was atter meat. Two, three, four sbots were fired, and yet the speed of the elk was not lessened; but, atthe filth shot, it was observed to waver, stagger, and, in a moment, fall heavily to the ground. Then Miss F. was seento haltand fire another shot into the animal as it Iamy § struggling near the horse’s feet. We hitched up a@ wagon and drove to the scene, where we tound Adams sitting upon the body of the failen monarch of the mountains, whiiec Miss F., flushed and triampbant, stood near.

The Hei: Vashington dispatches nounced last Saturday that the Secreta of State bad senta letter to the diplomatic rep- resentatives here of the ieading foreign States, protesting against the course of governments in continuing to allow their sulb- jects to leave for the United States as Mormon emigrants. The government through its Min- isters abroad will callthe attention of Great Britain, Germany, Norway, Sweden and Den- mark to the fact that their subjects, in em- bracing Mormonism and in coming to this country te take up the polygamous practices of that religion, subject themselves to the pen- alties of the criminallaws. If the friendly representations of our Government do not lead to efforts on the part of foreign States to repress the zeal of Mormon missionaries and io check the growth of Mormon proselytism, **then,’’ says a Cabinet officer, **we shail be in a position where we can forbid vessels land- ing Mormon emigrants in our ports.’’ MORMON PROSELYTISM. Not long ago Bishop John Rowberry, who in 1877 and for some years previous had gen- eral supervision over the interests of the Church of Latter Day Saints in England, arrived in this country with 700 Mormon emi- grants on the Guion steamship Wisconsin. The Bishop. who is a man of middle age, and the husband of several wives, talked very freely of what the church was doing and hoped to do in its European missionary work. He admitted that within the past three vears the cliurch bad put forth. special efforts 10 send its missionaries tothe whole of Protest- ant Europe. Their work, he said, had been blessed with very great results. Thousands of converts were being added to the Mormon Church abroad, and many of the younger and more active disciples of the faith “were emi- grating to America and adding strength to the Utah Church. In view of the facts we pre- sented and of information derived from other sources it may be suid. without exaggeration, that no religious sect to-day equals the Mor- mon Church in the extenu, development and organized efti- ciency of its proselytism. There are now 160,000 Mormons in Utah and its vicinity and 50,000 in the Protestant lands of Europe. Itis part of the Mormon policy to retain its numerical superiority in Utah. The enemies of the church have invaded its chosen refuge, and it sees no hope of perpetuity that is not based on increasing hosts of believers. Last year between the ‘months of April and O:>- tober, the missionaries in Europe induced over two thousand Mormon emigrants to come tothis country. This year the immigration will be about two thousand five hundred, which is larger than in any season for the past fifteen years. Last year eighty fresh mission- aries from Utah, enthusiastic, zealous, ready to suffer all things in the couyse of their work, Went abroad to seatter themselves over Eu- rope. ‘There are now about four hundred Mormon propagandists in Europe. They are organized for work under nearly as perfect a system as that which the Methodist Episcopal Church supports. THE WORK ABROAD. The several countries of the Continent, said Bishop Rowberry, are divided into dis- tricts or conferences, with a presiding elder over each, and be is furnished with as many missionaries as he thinks can be utilized in his territory. In Scandinavia there are forty missionaries, and as many fields of religious work where the seeds of the new dispensation are taking root. There are 6.000 Mormons in Scandinavia. Mr. John A. Anderson, a for- mer missionary, who returned to Utah with Bishop Rowberry’s party, said that last year he baptized 500 converts. In Sweden there ag) conferences, in Denmark three and in Norway two, with cight presiding elders. In Switzerland there is one conference and eight missionaries. Bishop Row berry esti- mated the number of followers of the Mormon faith in England at 10,000, and the propagan- dist work is going on in charge of 150 mission- ar He said that the majority of proselytes in England were from the Methodist Church. Many « converts are won from Presbyterians, andibe Church of England also furnishes large number. The Mormon army the finest recruits from the But little progress is missionaries who are kept in France apd = =in the are portions of Germany. **The Catholies,’’ said the Bishop, ‘‘are so firmiv grounded in their faith and they trust so implicitly in_ their riests that we are able to make very little Cceepenion onthem.’’ He did not mention the abhorrence of the Roman Catholics for any institution which does not base its social theories upon the sacredness and inviolability of the monogamic law. Butthis fact is un- doubtedly one of the elements of difficulty en- countered by the Mormon prepagandist iu Catholic fields. The ranks of the Mormons in Europe are recruited mainly from the Luthe- ran churches, and among the Lutherans of Scandinavia and of Germany are the efforts of the proselyting missionaries most prolific of results. They are now persecuted for relizion’s sake in no part of Europe. But, as the Bishop re- marked, they are made to feelin a thousand ways that they are ostracised. The Lutheran churches, from which most of the converts come, abhor the name of Mormon, and regard the proselytes to the new faith as apostates who are irretrievably disgraced. The Swiss Lutherans are most bitter in their opposition, and their treatment of converts and of Mor- mon missionaries nearly approaches open persecution.

The powers of the church maintain a regu- lar immigration bureau. -Its missionaries secure the immigrants. Experienced agents direct the movements of the incoming stran- gers. »Not a mile is traveled, not a morsel of food is purchased, that is not paid for under contracts that have long been in existence. The result is that no peasants of Europe can come to America at so little expense as the Mormon immigrant. Mr. W. C,. Stains, of Williamsburg, one of the famous Council of Seventy. and a genial, earnest man, has long been the Mormon immigra- tion agent in New York. From this point he has the general charge of the transportation of immigrants from all parts of Europe to Salt Lake City. He has the most advantageous contracts in existence for trans- portation over the leading European routes converging at Liverpool, the illiams & Guion line of steamships. the Pennsylvania, the Peoria and Warsaw, the Chicago, Bur- lington and Quincy, and the Union Pacific railroads. Mr. Stains told the reporter that years ago the Mormon immigrants always passed through Chicago, but ‘the railroads **pooled against him,’ Sand they now cross Centra! Illinois, striking the Mississippi River at Burlington. It costs the Mormon emigrant only #75, including everythinz, to go from Copenhagen, via Liverpool, to Salt Lake City. Whenever a considerable number are prepared to start the delegations from the Various countries meet at Liverpool, each in charge of a missionary who attends to their comfort and relieves them of all anxiety con- | cerning the journey. On shipboard they have religious exercises twice daily. At New York they are transferred to speci jal trains, which run at greater speed than the ordinary emi- granttrain. Inshort, the’Mormon emigrant falls into excellent hands when he trusts tothe transportation agent of his church, and com- pared with the hard-and tedious experience of those who view spiritual matters from another standpoint he bas a pleasant journey to his new home in the West. CHARACTER OF THE NEWCOMERS. Most of the Mormon emigrants are very poor. They are generally agricultural labor- ers. although tailors, carpenters, masons, stone-cutters and nearly ail the trades are well represented. Their bone and sinew find plen- ty of exercise in Utah and theirguides say that in two weeks after reaching the Perritory they are scattered at service through its length and breadth. ‘*Many thousands, said the Bishop, *‘are anxious to come, andthey will be with us as soon as they can pay their way.’ In many cases the means of the people permit the immigration of only a part of the family, and those who are left will follawlater. There are always in the parties a few old people, many inthe prime of life and alarge number of youths, ‘*These striplings, said the Bishop, **will be better Mormons and smart- er, more useful citizens.than their fathers. In a few years they’ll do the work of men and they’ll grow up witb the country and know no other home than Utah. We like them better as immigrants than middle-aged peupie.’’ SPREAD OF THE FAITH, Stains told the reporter that Mormon faith had recently been made in Texas and -New Mexico, and estern ‘Territories were Mr. many Very ja: of Mormons among their cit! outspreading of the Mormon large accessions to their hum: v bich they are constantly eign shores, have excited tety. and there are signs Heo Mormon movement is near at hand, which will be more bitter and energetic than any war yet waged upon the disc iples of Josepti Suith. be Crentile population of tah complain durin the past year more marritges have been celebrated Territory than ever before in the Mormon Chureh The pnon-Mormon women have addressed an appeal to the womenef the United States, esking names to a petition urring Conzress to empower the courts to arrest the further proe of this « nag The anti- Mormon papers direct attention to the fact that the Mormons ere rapidly extending their settlements into Arizona.

[From the Philadelphia Record, July 8.1] In Langhorn Woods, twenty miles Philadelphia, on the Bound Beook number of the Methodist churches of Bucks from | county have been holding a camp-meeting for the last two weeks. A couple of miles down the line is the grove where the Spiritualists are holding forth. Two miles cannot be con- sidered as close proximity, and it is not al- leged that the stentorian tones of the Metho- dists bave broken the slumbers of the believ- ers in the supernatural, or that, on the other hand, the spirits have disturbed the medita- ticns of the devout. It is just probable that the Methodists might have remained in ignor- ance of the existence of the opposition camp- meeting had it not been for the fact that woman who has figured prominently in this city under the name of Mrs. Bliss, being desirous of obtaining more privacy thin the camp -grounds afforded, has taken acottage al-- nost within a stone’s-throw of the Methodist rendezvous. In this cottage the oid tricks of the Blisses are nightly re-enacted, and itis whis- ered that more than one of the neighboring Methedists have been induced to pasticipate in aseance. Be _ thisas it may,the church people are inthe defensive and all their sup- plications in behalf of mankind in general have been muingied with special appeals that grace might fall on the Spiritualists in particu- ar. Day before yesterday which for the moment led them to believe that their pravers were to be answered. It was just afterthe noonday meal, and the pious were flocking to the tent for the usual revival meeting, When a group of strangers was des- cried crossing the field towards the woods. There were altogether six of them-— five men anda woman... The latter was svon recognized as the soi disadnt Mrs. Bliss. Of the remainder of the deputation of Spiritual- ists, foras such thev announced themselves, two (Drs. Watson and Taylor) are ex-Metho- dist ministers, the latter having beeu expelled from the Kansas Conference for heresy. The delegation was met by anumber of Methodist ministers, among them Presiding Elder Chap- lain, M. H. Sistv, L B. Brown, O; K. Cook and Amos Johnson. The object of the dele- gation was briefly explained. ‘*‘We come to offer vou our greetipg,’’ said a spiritualist, ‘*and to say that if you will allow some of our speakers to cccupy your pulpit we, on the other hand. will be glad to welcome some of your ministers in our rostrum.’’ The divines almost gasped for breath when this proposal was submitted. Elder Chaplain was the first to reply, and in very plain terms he expressed the opinion that the proposition was not one to be entertained. Then Pastor Sisty asked for a Spiritualist declaration of principles, and, the request béing complied with, he took a cursory glance at its pages. This done be exclaimed with indignation: **This (holding up the book) settles the ques- tion of our affiliating with you. You have no Christ, no atonement, no repent: ince, no new birth, no resurrection, no judgment, no hell. You allow every man tothink as he pleases, to act as he pleases. No; we have no place for such as you.’’ This dennnciation, delivered in rising tones and with withering scorn and emphasis, for a moment dumbfounded the delegation. Final- ly Dr. Watson so far recovered Siaseelt as to admit that among Spiritualists everyone was free to believe anything ne pleased. Then ministers and Spiritua! ists began a discussion on Christianity in general and the Bible in particular, which was abruptly closed by El- der Chaplain emphatically informing the del- egation that ‘‘I would as soon inv ite tobert Ingersoll to preach as one of you.’’ With this conge the delegation turned to depart. Then ensued a scene which they had not an- ticipated. During the discussion several hun- dred of the camp followers had gathered around, completely encircling the delegation. ‘*Let us pray before you depart,’’ suggested a minister, and the crowd went down on its knees. The delegation tried to move, but there was no means of egress and they re- mained standing. Then one of the brethren began to pray, and the audience responded with ‘*‘Amen’’ and other ejaculations. As the speaker increased in fervor he besought mercy upon those who formerly preached but now dishonored heaven. This reference to two members of the delegation brought forth another chorus of ‘‘Amens.’’ Women wept Joudlyand strong mex rocked them- selves toand fro in their religious enthusi- asin. **O that we all present may enter heaven,’ pleaded the pastor . **We will! .we wili!’’ shouted the Spirit- ualists in unison. **But,’’ continued the note of the interruption, **‘we know that nothing shall —_— therein that detileth or maketh a lie. » but many may seek to enter and shail not be 2K cagg This time the Spiritualists sponse.

A neighbor of the Dixie saloon foliowivg sceount of the affair: ‘*lor several days I-noticed a couple, evi- dently underthe influence of liquor, entering the saloon to take drinks.

After the autopsy the bodv was given to her husband, Mr. James Rielley, and by him taken to their once happy but now desolate home, at No. audeville street, from whence, yesterday evening, it was interred. Clark was arraigned before Judge Milten- berger and remanded to the parish prison to await a hearing. The following particulars of the murdered were gathere d by a woman’s earlier history Times reporter yesterday: As has already been stated, the unfortunate woman was the daughter of Jules Le Blane, a large planter of the parish of Iberville. Some years ago, be- ing in need of laborers upon his plantation, Mr. Le Blane advertised: for hands, and a party of young men, among. whom was Parker, went up to _ the place. Miss LeBlanc was captivated with Parker and desired to marry him, but, her parents op- posing the match, she eloped with him, and coming tothe city, a marrisge between the pair was consummated. Aftera short expe- rience of wedded bliss the sweets began to pall and Parker deserted his wife, leaving her with a ebild, now some two years old. After the departure of ber husband Mrs. Parker continued to reside in this city, taking a house in one of the lower districts, where she attracted much curious attention from the neighbors, in whose eyes her elegant attire contrasted strangely with her unpretentious, even humbie, domicile. Mrs. Parker continued to reside in the house for some time, and, it is understood, made several appeals for help to her relatives, the answers to which were. insubstance, that she had made her bed and could lie in it. Realizing for the first time the fearful truth of her position, she sought liquor as a sur- cease of sorrow, though her fits of inebriety were at that time by no means as frequent as in her latter days. Her downward course be- gun, it would have required a supreme effort though an opportunity was offered her by her mar- riage with Reilley, whe is on all sides spoken sober and well-to-do man, and one able to supply his wife with all the neces- saries of life and many of its luxuries. As matters turned out, bowever, the mar- riage was only a resting spell from her career of dissipation. She soon resumed her old habits and, excess following upon excess, Reiley found bimself reluctantly compelled to cast her off. From this period she seems to have pursued her old habits with still greater ardor, and to have been frequently seen upon the streets in an intoxicated condition. Upon one of these occasions she was ar- rested and locked upon the charge of being drunk and disturbing the peace, and was liberated,it is said,through Clark’s influence, who took a fancy to her in the station, though he had not previously known her. Thus it was that the fatal intimacy was formed. Clark seems to have pursued the connection thus formed, though it was but ofa week’s duration, and metthe woman several times in places similar tothat in which the murder was cominitted. Celestine Le Blanc is saidfby those who knew her to have been a cultivated woman, and one wh6 had experienced all the advantages of ed- ucation and refinement. She was an accom- plished linguist and pianist. It is said that but a few days before her death she had ceived a letter from her father, offering receive her again into her old home if she would forsake her associates or to settle upon herasum suflicient to place her above want. oi to - ITisa lamentable fact that thousands regard an affection of thethroat or lungs, suchas Coughs, Colds or Hoarseness, with extrems3 in- difference. These complaints are often but the forerunner of Consumption, and can be instantlycured by Dr. Bull's Cough Syrup. Price 25 cents. -— ->_ COMMONWEALTH DISTRIBUTION co. Next Monthly Drawing, August 30th. Unprecedented success ol the new and orig- inal feature of allowing any ticket-holder present the privilege of calling out his number and seeing it placed inthe wheel. Why don’t they all do it? The last drawing of the Commonwealth Dis- tribution Company, in Louisville, Ky.,was the grandest success ot all. Macauley’s Theater was filled to overflowing, and many persons called out the numbers of their tickets, which were readily shown them and placed inthe wheel. The numbers representing all the tickets from 1 to 100,000 are accurately printed by ma- chinery, spread outon a table, and so ar- ranged in packages of 100, that itis only the work of a moment to pick out any number. IF ONE IS THERB, ALL MUST BE THERE, as it is impossible to know what numbers will be cailedfor. Thisisa sure prevention against fraud or favoritism. The nextGrand Drawing will be conducted in the same manner,and the sume splendid scheme prosented, viz.: 1,960 prizes. amounting to $112,400. Orders are pouring introm all parts of the country, so great is the confidence in the integrity of the company. Tickets are only $2; halves, $1. see advertisement. Address T. J.

Conclusion of Preparations for the Mass Meet- ing To-Night. The striking coopers are beginning to open their eyes to the fact that a mistake was made in allowing members of their craft to resume work in shops when the contract had been signed by the bosses of the same. There are three shops still resisting the strike, and these three employ as many men when running regu- larly as are now at workin the ten who have yielded to every demand of the dissatisfied ele- ment. For two weeks past the coopers have been . PREPARING THE WAY to bring the three remaining shops to time. The proposition is to witndraw the coopers from every shop in the city and patiently await the result. They have assurances from several trades unions in the city that weekly contributions will be furnished sufficient to support every cooper so long as they remain true to themselves. Itis alleged that the shops now running are furnish- ing the persistent three with barrels enough to satisfy their former customers, and that as long as this proceeding continues so long will the strikecontinueatfruitlessone. Theremedy tor this state of affairs is the stopping of coop- erage in every shop, which can be easily done as there is no provision in their contract with the employers that compels them to work fora year, the specified time they are to receive the increased wages. THIS SUBJECT was not spoken of this morning at the meeting at Vorwerts Hail, the principal business be- ing the discussion of arrangements for the mass-meeting which takes piace at Lucas Market this evening. It was decided that a wagon on which sball be displayed the American flag and suitable mottoes, containing a band,drive through the streets this afternoon, and further advertise the affair. The proposition thata German flag occupy a place in the vehicle raised the ire ofthe raturalized Teutons, who voted solidly against the motion, which was criginated by a full-fledged American. It was then suggested that A TORCHLIGHT PROCESSION be added tothe demonstratiou, but as consid- erable expense would bLe incurred in making anything like a creditable show the idca was abandoned. The president then stated the o ject of to-night’s mneeting at Lucas Market ee requested that all married coopers bring their wives, as everything would be conductedina peaceful and respectable manner. Several enthusiastic speeches were then made for the welfare of the strike and the meet- ing adjourned. THE NAVAL RENDEZVOUS.

There are one hundred and twenty-one boys waiting for examination, to each of whom has been issued a check bearing the number of his tnrn, and Captain Potter proposcs to publish in the daily papers the days upon which each number will be examined.

A company of the Police Reserves will give an exhibition drill at each performance. THE GREAT LONDON SHOW. The initial performances of Cooper, Bailey & Co.’s allied shows were given yesterday. In the evening the monster canvas tent was liter- ally packed with people, and there was scarce- ly roomto accommodate the thousands who came pouringin. Before the arenic scenes be- gan fully 10,000 persons were present, Juven- ile humanity was represented in strong num- bers. It was evident that acircus still retains its attraction tor both old and young, and es- pecially so when it combines such magniticent features as the Great London Show. Theelectric light illuminated the im- inense space with softness and brilliancy, and the generator and engine were central points otf interest. ‘lhe menagerie also afforded great delight tothe crowd. It was eight o'clock ex- actly when the performance in the arena com- menced. The first thing on the programme wasthe spectacular entree by the company, followed by an exhibition of Caledonian sports and pastimes by Crossley and Elder, who developed most remarkable leaping pow- ers. The grand military drill and pyra- mid by the champion herd of six elephants evoked the most enthusiastic ap- plause. The various movements and man- euvers of these ponderous brutes were watch- ed by the immense multitude with breathless attention, and cheer after cheer greeted the marvelous tricks of this highly trained herd. In the battoute tumbling act the wonderful pertormance of Mr. James Murray proved the most noticeablefeature. Theriding of Williamn Dutton was exceedingly gracetul, but the days of pad riding have passed away. Mme. D’ Atalie, the female Sampson, astonished the audience by her feats of strength. A brass cannon was placed upon. her neck and fired while a man stood upon the cannon. Frank Melville exhibited some very fine bareback riding, but Mr. Charles W. Fish bore off the honorsasa bareback equestrian. His back somersaults and other deeds of dar- ing were applauded vociferously. Senorita Adelaide Codona proved that she is the most intrepid and finished rider. On her bareback steed she leaped through thirty-one hoops witheuta single break. Her feat ot riding four bareback steeds was also received with enthusiasm. The wonderful somersault leap of W .H. Batchelor over six huge elephants created perbaps more excitement than any other fea- ture oithe show. The Japanese juggler, the Lawrence sisters and the clowns all came in for their share of the plaudits. The great crowd dispersed highly gratified with the evening's entertainment. There will betwo performan- ces daily during the week - - City Hall Notes. There were thirteen burial permits issued trom the Health Department to-day.
