The relator is certainly entitled to the same privileges as other corporations, and it would seem to follow as a necessary in- ference that it is subject to the same disabil- ities. I am of the opinion that the return raises no triable issue of fact, and thata per- emptory writ should be awarded compelting the respondent to place a telephone in the re- lator’s officeon the same terms that it sup- plies instruments to other subscribers.

The work of decorating the Merchants’ Exchange Hall tor the Veiled Prophets’ bajl is progressing rapidly to-day. These decorations are to be much more elaborate this year than before, and are in charge of Mr. Flesh, of Fiesh & Mook. The floral decorations are in the hands of Jordan, the florist. The gallery bas been tastetully draped with evergreens and a profusion of flags of all kinds. Large flags are looped over the rostrum, and also fromthe fallery to the floor in each end of the hall. Two large ten-foot flower stands have been made, and one is on each corner of the rostrum, which has been enlarged and made into a music- stand. There willbe no triumphal archway atthe main door this year. Notlessthana thousand pots ot flowers will be usedin the wes ys ane of the fountain and the music stand. Around on the streets of the city, too, there are most gaudy indications to be seen every- where that the Veiled Prophet is coming. Fourth and Fifth streets are al- ready ablaze with flaming bunting and decorations, and dealersin thislinejof goods msust be reaping a harvest. Some stores gre fairly enveloped in flags, and there is consid- erable rivalry between firms to outstrip each cee in the beauty and extent of these adorn- ents. CITY PERSONALS. Mr. Al.

The best reserved seats will be sold at seventy-five cents to the best performances, including the famed Bernhardt, with whose managers he has about closed a contract. The Dickson brothers, who control the other two theaters here, part of the great theatrical circuit of Thomas Dickson and Hickey, threaten to retort by playing their troupes for nothing, making up their loss On the profits from other parts of the cir- cuit. Mr. English says all prices have come down, end the price of amusement should come down also. Itis in fact a war against monopoly in amusements. A DASTARDLY PLOT. Attempt to Blow up the Chicago County Court-House, CHICAGO, Oct. 4.—Sunday morning a fire was found in the Recorder’s office at tne County Court-House. Evidentiy some scoundrel had, during the night, effected an entrance into the room with the purpose of destroying the books of this county, the second in population in the State. Only fourteen were destroyed, and the rest, valued at $3,000,000, were saved. When the fire was extinguished a torpedo and four cans of nitro-giycerine were on the floor in the vault and the fire had nearly reached them. Had they exploded, as they would have done in a tew minutes, not only would the building have been destroyed with all its valuable records, but the jail beneath would have been blown to atoms with its inmates. — tothe dastardly perpetrators is yet ound, : Gee el True Bills.

CONKLING delivered one of his impro- vised political orations on one of the Cin- cinnati hilltops the other night, but he didn’t once utter the name of Garfield. Heavy bets were laid that he wouldn’t, IN New York City the betting is still two to one that Hancock widl carry the Empire State. The odds are about that much that he will take his meals forthe next four vears in the White House—death and acci- dents barred. A sHarpPp look-out should be kept this week by householders. The city wiil be thronged with burglars and sharpers, and the night of the Veiled Prophets’ proces- sion will be a busy one for the gentlemen with light fingers and wool-shod feet. Ir is observed that the Republican man- agers in Washington arereceiving the same glorious and encouraging reports from Ohio and Indiana now that they re- ceived from Maine just previous to the last election. But we of Green B. Raum. miss the clarion notes A I/erald correspondent, now in Indiana, ceclares that the Democrats have had less than $25,000 to spend in the campaign, and that they are suffering from demoraliza- tion on account of it. This would indicate that Mr. English isnot the reckless rich muan that he has been generally advertised to be. Tue work of alarming the Business Men is going on beautifully in Ohio and In- diana. Itis the last resort ofthe Credit Mobilier statesmen. orruns @ little shop fs taking in the dread- ful information that unless Mr. Garfield, the distinguished member of the Cobden ‘Free Trade Clubof England, is elected President, our American industries will be paralyzed from one end to theother. Sad- ness reigns everywhere in consequence, Kvery man who owns ee ee ee ee eee oe In its warfare on the Hon. Wm. H. Eng- lisb, of Indiana, the Republican party has put itself on record as opposed to the ac- cumulation of riches. A new Life of him for campaign circulation, just issued, speaks of him as ‘‘the national banker in whose hands $5,000,000 grew to $14,000,- 000 in ten years; the mortgage dealer who has turned a thousand families from their own doors and sold a thousand houses under the auctioneer’s hammer.” The ponderous bankers and Republican Busi- ness Men of the East who meet every few days and establish a guardianship over the country ought to feel ashamed of them- seives. Witn good weather the city of St. Louis will see more strangers within her gates this week than at any period in her history. The Great Fair, which has expanded amd beautified from year to year, has now reached a condition of magnificent excel- lence which places it at the head of all simi- lar institutions on the Continent. Every- body in this section of the country recognizes the factand Fair week in St. Louis is a red letter entry in every Missouri family calendar. Our columns to-day give a faint picture of the Fair as it will be. Better preparations have been made for taking care of visitors than ever before, and no stranger need walk the streets for want of a place of lodgment this week. The Veiled Prophet display to-mor- row night will be the most gorgeous enter- tainment ever witnessed in our city.

It behpoves every gobd citizen to pray fora continw “ancerof fair weather, this. week. ea 7 ”~ been impaired by the alleged ‘threatening ° attitude” of tke South, wnites to the pa- triot Halstead to say that Bill English, the Democratic nominee for Vice-President, has never publicly declared himself » op- position to the payment of the rebel claims. He plaintively observes: ‘Please give us an editorial on this subject and the fact that while English. remains unpledged Haneock’s pledge avails but little.’ This is a solemn and startding fact. Mr. English must be'smoked out. It would never de to bave-s man in the Vice-Presiden’t chair liable at any moment to kill off Hancock and pay the xebel claims to the last red cent. Letus have @ tremendous letter from Mr. English. THERE is a German Republican news- paper in Cimcimnati called the Abend Post, the editor of which has taken service un- der the Hancock banner. Ina recent let- td to the chairman of the Republican State Committee he said: ; Iishall neither write norspeak for the Re- publican ticket except 1 receive very soon saé- isfaction and recompense fortheloss of my share of Republican advertising patronage, dollars. : It is not an unusual thing for newspaper publishers to look at great political ques- ‘tions from the advertising standpoint, but itis only about once in ten years that you catch a fellow as ‘candid as the editer of the Abend Post. ee - A ruriLt of horror, as it were, now splits the sedate city of Philadelphia from center to periphery. The discovery has been made by the Repub- lican managers that the Dem- ocrats are prepuring to perpetrate great frauds on the ballot-box in November. This is the warning thatalways goes to the countey when the Republican thieves of that corrupt city are getting ready to outrage the ballot-box in some peculiarly offensive manner. We know what it means inthisinstance. It meansthat 19,000 Democratic voters will be disfranchised by Republican repeaters next month, and that 15,000 fraudulent Republican ballots will be polled. The city of Philadelphia is once more expected to overcome the voice of the great State of Pennsylvania through fraud of the most revolutionary character. VAcANCIES in the Scnool Board from the First, Fifth, Sixth, Tenth, Twelfth, Six- teenth, Seventeenth, Eighteenth, Twenty- first, Twenty-fourth, Twenty-sixth and Twenty-seventh Wards are to be tilled by election to-morrow. There are a large number of gentlemen in the field from whom the electors may choose, and it is of vital importance to the public school system that the choice falls on capable, honest, intelligent and well-educated men, who appreciate of the they This is not an occasion wherein party lines can be drawn. Good men nave been named on both sides, and bad men have been equally fortunate. And, while it is prima facie eyv- can tbe nature responsibility assume. idence that a Democrat is a good man, there are exceptions to this rule, and un- fortunately some of the exceptions are run- ning for School Directors. It behooves every voter to vote for the best man, no matter what his politics or his religion may It is character rather than opinions which is just now needed in the Board, and when the elecbors appreciate this fact act they will increase wondcerfully the eflicacy of the Public Schools.

Few people not on terms of inti- mate companionship withthe hoodlum class have any idea of the prevalence of razors among them. One could go along the river front of St. Louis to-day and gather more glittering razors than would shave the whole city for a decade. It has come to be regarded as the weapon of the moke, and he ‘and she—for it is an epicene blade—have acquired a dangerous fluency in its use. Underthe sweet influences of the razor the coon is slowlv but surely wiping himself out, and the rest of the world is in- clined to hunt cover and let the good work go bravely on. —— + ee a CHICAGO’S splendid race track has finally succumbed under repeated failure and is soon to be sold at public auction. The inability of Chicago to maintaina race course is one of the , curious things of this age and can only be accounted for on the ground that money is notas abundant in that quarter as it should be. The distance from Chicago to St. Louis is not so great but that the lovers of horse- flesh up there can avail themselves of excur- sion rates and run downto St. Louis when they want to see a good race.

The Power of Love as Evinced in the Case of Mr. Harvey Barnett. ‘‘She’s the pootiest galinthe whole lot, I tell yer.’’ The person from whom this affecttonate sen- timent came was a bullet-headed boy about fifteen yearsof age, dirty and ragged, with both legs cut off just below the knees, and he sat on the tront row of reserved seats in the alleged parquette of Esher’s Alhambra Thea- ter. He had been in that seat a half bour before the overture every night tor two weeks. His shabby old coat wouldn’t have held corn todder, and bis check bickory sbirt leoked as though it had been used for a month ortwoasamopinabeersaloon. There was an odor, too, about Mr. Harvey Burnett, boot- black, newsboy and chiffonier, which suggest- ed innocence of the luvatory and created the impression that he bad probabiy not enjoyeda full bsth since leaving his lower extremities at the hospital. Miss Ada Phillips, a black-eyed, rather trim built young girl with a marked profusion of taded bius stockings, rose to chantin a serio-chronic way and the vitrous eyes of jittle Harry Barrett glistened like Arizona pebbles. He clapped his hands, wiggled his stumps and bounced about on his chair asthough enjoying the electicism of a crocked pin. ‘'Tbat’s her, that’s her,’’ ejaculated the frowsy boot-black, and the love-light smooth- ed the dirty creases of his hard young face and filled it With a radiance as divine asthe pas- sion which used to transform poor Kuy Blus into a cavalier when lis Queen looked into his hollow eyes. ‘*That’s my girl, and I think the world of ber, you bet. D’ye see that fan? Well, I guve herthat. Cost me seventy cents. And those slippers, too. Ardltook her trunk ont of the American House lest week, $3 75. She makes $10 a week, but I make more’nthat, and lsparealll can tor her. Don’tthink shecares much forme, but she treats mae kindly. [’m going to walk bome with herto-night, and next week she’s going to Council) Bivuff3, and l’m going, too, if I can raise the spondulicks.’’ All this time the enthusiastic youth kept his eyes steadily fixed on the stage divinity, his hands e-er ready to 5, hap She wore a faded artificial rose at her side and handied her swan down fan like an awk- ward school-girl. Her vcice was of the stri- dent Variety Halltype butnot altogether lack- ingin musical tone. Onceshbe glanced down at her abbreviated adolescent admirer, blushed and smiled. The happy liittie Satyr tri led | from crownto where his toes ought to have been. The song bore reference to a flower from somebody’s angel mother’s grave and whenit was finished the grimy pawsof the ‘*‘mashed’’ boot-black awakened the echoca of the hall and secured the cncore which was as modestly acknowledged as one could ex- pect from an uneducated ingenue ona salary of $10 a week. With apregramme in his hand Mr. Harvey Burnett, remarking incidentally that ne had learned to rendin the New Orleans House of Refuge, proceeded to dilute on the semi-circu- lar erray of talentand paint infront of hiin: ‘*Phat woman De Court over here,’’ said he, ‘*is married to a rooster overt at the Globe as does some sort of trapeze acte That sickly- woking girl there is Aida, the flying-traneze girl. She don’t look it, but she isa mighty slick girl. That girl with the turn-up nose is married to the nigger on the far end’’—and so the ardent youth went through with his descripiive Hist. He said tbat his home was at Alton, Ill., and that he had lost his pins four years ago, being bouncea off a railroad train and under the wheels by a heartless brakeman. Anorphanat thetime, he hed been nursed through his calamity on the acrid breast of Charity. ‘‘l’vegot $50laid upin Alton.’’ he said, ‘‘and I’m goin’ up there to-morrow, ferl’ve got ter have some new togs.’’ Then calling a waiter to him he took from bis pocketan old cubeb box with some loose change in it, picked out a nick)e and requested the servitor to tossit to his girl. The nickle took flight but the tam- bourine thumperon the end nipped it ana drop- peditinto his vest pocket witb a Knowing leer. Of course the vocal inaiden in the ultra- marine stockings would never enjov the usu- fruct of that nickle. Nothing dauatea, how- ever, Mr. Harvey Burnett, Decrotteur and news dealer, ordered two glasses of beer to be sent behine the scenes to his inamorata and her partner, the radiant De Court, placing on record meanwhile his emphatic protest against the intamy otf charging customers ten cents tl gsilass for beer drunk inthe coulisses. Atlast accountsthe reserve fund in the cubeb box consisted ofa battered ten-cent piece and two veteran pennies; but, as Mr. Burnett's lodging at the Sheltering Arms, on Sixth street, had been patd tor in advance, sch te gna felt no concern. Loor waif! The vision of that ono pretty face was enough forhim. Jle thought of the delight of ee home by her side that night in the soft light of perhaps the only eyes that had ever lookea upon himinthe way of kindness, and he was as _ light-hearted AS an Emperor, though penniless and homeless. Diiiting torever like scum on the sea of hu- Inanity he bad at Jast dropped intoa sortof musiculeddy, and for a fortnight had gone whirling around monotonou:ly with no thought ofanything but Her presence. Her eyes may have been mercenary and all his devotion may have been nothing to her save whenit repre- eented thetruits ot his hard earnings in the form of presents, but they were bright, child- ish eyes, and he saw much tenderness in them. Ile had seen them otten, doubtiess, in the boots that he blacked, andthey had softened his hard pailetin manya lonely night. What to him wes thelove of Abelard and Heloise,the eretie verses of Jobann Secundus orethe ballads of troubadours? Psyche, had touched the heart of the poor street Arab, and it yearned for companionship—for that grace of affection without which lifeis a barren waste—a dead sea apple. Hem:y never have pictured to himself a palace bythe Lake of Como, nor a dashing four-in-hand inthe park, but who knows but that he may have dreamed of the Gay when be might be able to execute a song and dance on apair of wooden stumps and go about the country by Her side ever, his bosom swelling with pride at the contemptation ot that compensatory line on the Variety Hali programme. ‘‘Re-engagement of the talent- ed aitists, Mr. and Mrs. Harvey Giue.’’ HOW TO GET LODGINGS. The Merchants’ Beurau Can Furnish Four Thousand of Them, The Merchants’ Bureau ot entertainment is proving agreat success, and would be much more so were the tact of its existence more generally xnown. The hotels are already overcrowded, and nothing but cots canbe had. The Bureau, which is under the patron- age of the Fair Association and maintained by subscriptions of merchants, have now on their books the names of places where lodgings can be furnished to the number ot 4,000. They have already sent out over 1,000 visitors to lodgings, several hundred of them to-day. They have lodgings in al) parts ot the city and atall sorts ofprices. Gentlemen with their wives can be accommodated in first-class suburban boarding-houses. The Bureau is located at 519 Chestnut street, just opposite the main entrance of the Laclede Hotel.

The early trains entering Union Depot this morning were crowded to their capaci- ty. The down town streets were packed by ten o’clock,and the hackmen and baggage- wagon drivers did a thriving business all day. At the down town terminus of the various car- lines the school children lined the streets for blocks waiting for cars to take them tothe Fair Grounds. The greatest demand for lodg- ing and boarding, as discovered by inquiry, wus On second-class hotels and boarding- houses. Furnished rooms along Pine, Uhest- nut, Market, Locust and cross-streets were in good demand. The Court-house, Four Courts and all the central points of interest were **done’’ early in the day.

All ofthe Fair is not contained inside the Fair Grounds. and visitors to St. Louis wiil miss the attractions of the town badly if they do dot examine those things in thecity which are a permanent exposition ot industry. There are very few people within reach of the press of St. Louis who have not heard, fer instancs, ot ‘‘Famous,’’ the gigantic Franklin avenue clothing house, and who are not anxious to know just what the wordand the place mean. ‘*Famous’’ is by no means the only great in- dustry which has been builtina peculiarly St. Louis way, but it is an institution of which the city is proud, a display ot home talent xnd energy wuich no one Can afford to miss who wishes to study tne metropolis of the Mis*i-s»pp) Valley. The proprietors are quite conscious of this ard, w:th a» enlightened pub lic spirit which does thew credic, they have made moretban usual preparations to throw their establi-hment open to the pubdlic and expose the inner workings of a business which is of an enormous voiume. Visitors, in the first place, are al- ways welcome at the stores 705 to 715 Frank- lin avenue, andeven when the Fair is not go- ing on, there xremen employed whose sole business it is to show peoplethrough the house ard es plain to them alitbe workings of the es- sabiishwse ht. It must be remembered that no one is asked to buy five: cents’ worth of anything; they are not expected to make aby purchases at ail, but siinply to 1egard themselves asthe guests of the tirm,to see andto examine ali ths com plicated machinery of the business. Daring the present large influx of visitors from the country the cicerones have been increased and every possibie facility given to make the es- tablishment a component part of the Fair, or rather a Fair by itself. A good many lessons may be learned from the phenomenal success ol Messrs. Motte & Specht, and with a view of stating just how 4 busincss like thei:sis built up a Post- DISPATCH reporter called on Mr. Specht and chacteg with him tor: early an bouron ousiness meth- ods and getting on the world. ‘*The explanation,’’ said Mr. Specht, ‘‘ot our success isnot hard to find. Probabiy if I were to teli you something of the history ot our house, it would makethe matter plainer toyou. Ten years ago we were established in a little store scroes the street, at the corner of the alley. We hadn’t much monev, nor “uny great amount of business. I know our MOst sanguine expectations were more than realized when we found that we were do- ing a business of $15,000 a year. We haa a goud run of custom and ought to have been satisfied, but, you know,’’ he continued ,smil- ingly, ‘‘there never wasamanthat was do- ing well that didn’t want to do better.’’ *-How did you go »bout it?’’ ‘*')’l)tellyou. Ican remember just as well asifit was yesterdiy when I made upmy wind totry what x»dvertising would do. We had never adverti-ed, und I knew nothing aboutit, although lhada theory ot my own. I went downto tne office of the leading paper at that time and made a con- tract tor $400 worth of local notices, at 374; centsaline. My heartcame upin my throat as 1 handed the check over, for $400 was a big thing to methen, andlifeltasthough 1 were actuully throwing it away. Hiere are the notices, and Mr. Specht produced a heavy ecrap-book, Voiumel.ofa series which in- cludes every line he has ever bad printed. The notices were peculiar ones, in that they were careful- lv worded so as to demand reading. “Well, what was the result?’’ ‘*Look about vou! In place of the little store on the corner of the alley, hers is this three-story building, to which we will have to buiid at large addition in a couple of months. Inplace ofa business of $15,0U0 a year here is a business ot $750,000! And the whole secret is this: that we regaid our advertisements as contracts with the public to befulfilled vy us tothe let- ter. Thereis not a person in St. Louis or any- where else who can say that we have ever varicdfa hair’s brezdth from our printed prom- is@. Itissuicidal notto do so. Supposing a man trusts to a peculiar advertisement under the hope of getting a buyer into his store and then selling him something else, he will be fooled eve1y time. Buyers Come in here, forinstance, and pull a paper out of their pockets. ‘I want to sec an $850 all- wool suit.’ Ifheis not shown it, and it is not what we represented it to be, no adver- tiscment, no representation would ever bring that man back here. He would simply class us as humbugs and decline to ve tooleu again. Now we take a peculiar way of getting our an- nouncements read, which has always veen successful. Wegive a persona clearcutidea of what we have to s@lland what wé want for it. If he comes here and pays tor it he will get just what we saidinthe first place we would give him, neither more noriless. Thatis what J understand by the word ‘business.’ ’’ ‘*You bave a peculiar way of treating peo- rie in the stores, too, have you not?’’ ‘*Pecuiiarinthis way: we don’t harass a person tobuy. Whenanyone enters the store, the floor-walker goes up and passes the time of day pleasantly. Ile then asks what he can do forthe visitor. If the lady or gentieman wishes to seethe place the floor-walker will! take them all overthe house and expliia every thing tothem, without asking them to buy, or witbout the vaguest expectation that they will buy anything. leis paid for that as his worx, and thatis how we insist on having our callers treated. If alady or gentlenian comesin asa purchaser, the floor- waiker will show them to the proper counter and call the proper sales- men to wait on them.,.’’ ‘*And in buying?’’’ ‘*The chief point about our system is to dis- courage the over zealof our clerks. If any misrepresentation is brought to our know- ledge, or to thatof the gentleman in charge of each department, the man who made it is dis- chergeda atonce. Our ideais to establish con- fidence and tosutaintbe credit we have al- ready achieved. I tell you it has a money va'ue to us.’”’ Mr. Specht wound up the conversation by showing the reporter cver the house, from the third floortotbe cellar. Up stairs is there- ceiving room and the merchant tailoring depaitment. Upon the second floor is displayed chiefly clothing, and on the first floor snoes and furnishing goods. Altogether there is now in ibe house a stock of $250,000 worth of goods, and, as was said in the first part of this article, no one can have a fullidea of the business of St. Louis as itis without visiting this exponent of the clothing trade.

Local speculators und the canners did not appear very anxious to operate, and the const quence was the market dragged and only a moderate amount of business was transacted. The demand from the different classes ot buyers was light, and but few good native steers would have found sale were these inthe pens. Reports trom the leading Eastern and interior stock centers’ not very flattering tothe buyinginterests. There were no good or choice native steers oficred. Stook and feeding steers dull.

A Ramble Through the Various Departments. Programme of the Week’s Sportin the Arena. The Fine Art Collection and the Art Annex. Some of the Masterpieces Ex- | hibited in the Galleries. Description of the Gret:o and Textile Hall. A Glimpse at Every Department and Everything to Be Seen at the Fair. The Twentieth Annual St. Louis Fair open- ed this morning with all the departments io most perfect order. In the agriculturatand live stock departments the exhibit is /an im- provement upon that of last year, and shows that steady purpose which has followed the Fair from vear to year since its inception. The improvement in the breed of cattle and other stock is particularly notice- able. Exhibits are made from every section of the country, and from Englandand Canada. To the breed- er of stock, cattle, sheep and swine the blue gibbon of the St. Louis Fair Associataon is possessed of a value far above that of any _otber fair in the country, inasmuch as it is evidence of superior strain and insures ready sale at good prices. The manufacturer of agricultural implements here meets more farmers than are congregated at one point dur- ing the year, and the result of it is a display that stands alone and unapproacbable. By pursuing a liberal course toward merchants and manufacturers, a display of the iadustri- al products is secured that excels in wealth and interest the much vaunted “‘expositions ”’ of other cities. The St. Louis Fair is not a local but a national event, and was never ex- ceeded in this country except bv the Centen- nial Exposition. It brings hundreds of thou- sands of dolkars annually to St. Louis, and hundreds cf thousands of visitors. Itis too big a thing to be easily understood or half seen in a= single day, and a corps of experienced reporters, such as visied the various departmects this morning in the interest of the PosT-DIs- PATCH, can give but a feeble idea of the attractions of the great exhibition. The in- dications are that this will be moresuccess- fulip point of attendance tban any of the preceding nineteen triumphs of the As- Soclullon. The Arena. The programme for the week's sport in the arena, Which will be conducted by Julius s. Walsh, Edward Martin and David Ciurkson, isas follows: MONDAY. RIDING.

If a person were to judge the whole Fair by the condition cf the cotton exhibit to-day be would have to vote itafailure. Bat the fact is that the cotton department is uever in refdiness before Wednesday. It is under the eqntro] of the Cotton Exchange. They offer tLe premiums, they co lect the money, they receive entries, they keep the books and they aire responsibie for late arrivals and immature displa}s. Likewise they have generally b8en whi 7 pt for the expenses of a Danqaet, uw wil, howeyer, be Omit this year. Although the cotton display is this morning incomplete, yet it canuot be said that the cotton Suilding is without is attrac- tiops. The structure is ofa cross shape. It bas been fitted up this year in a very novel, yet beautiful, way. The moment one enters be is balted by a most magnificent display of Veiled Prophet’s bunting. ‘The entire roof of the central portion is canopied with a protu3- ion of e¢abalistic and high-colered cotton bunticog. It is not beautiful, but it is sof the sind that catches the eye of the un- veiled novice. These dccorations are the handiwork of Mr. L. Cohen, who has spent several days in their make-up. In the parlor upon the rightisa carpet, tapestried win- dows, elegant furniture anda piano. Inthe left or west wing are the cotton samoles. From the entries made and the cotton which has already arrived, itis certain that the ex- hibit this year willbe a most praiseworthy one. It will not be so large asinsome previous years, butthe quality will be bigher cn an average. ‘The uwards in this department will be madeon Thursday by a committee appointed by the Cotton Ex- cbapnge. Produce Department. The first exhibit which attracts the visitor as he enters the building reserved for the de- Tartment containing fruits, jellies, tobacco, eic., is the magnificent display made by James G. Butler & Co., the tobacco mer- chants. At the end of a large show-case facing the entrance is animmense banner, depict- ing the entrance to the Veiled Prophets’ b2ll. A darkey, half enveloped in a bag of tobacco, siands on one side and, extend- ing his hands to a gentieman just approaching him, asks him if he has a ticket tur the ball. The gentiemam answers aflirma- tively, producing as his card of admission a gigantic plug of giltedge tobacco. On one side of a pyramidical frame on top of the case are severai boxes of tobacco arranged like an immense cross. On the other they are arranged in the form of a checker-board. At the rear are arranged 100 pails of Gilt Edge tobacco, arranged to form the words B. and T. On the top is a colossal plug of tobacco, twelve feet long. Over the tobacco piled on the case is an immense bucket five feetin height and eleven feet in circumference. This is surmounted by a pyramid of buckets which reaches almost to the rafters of the building. Over the whole are loosely thrown several sheaves of tobacco jeaf. In the show case are several baskets of fine- cut tobacco,and about twenty varieties of smoking tobacco. The new gold-colored stamp on the gilt edge tobacco was designed in New York, and took two months for its completion. At the rearofthe building isthe exnibit of the well-known eracker manufacturers, Dozier, Wey) & Co. ‘There areseveral hundred boxes arranyed in the shape ofa pyramid and festooned with bunting. Forty-one feet of space iz occu- pied, and 350 varieties of crackers and cakes ure exhibited. The exhibitin front of thisis made by the Beef Canning Company. The display is a very creditable one and occupies a sort of pavilion which is tastefully and elaborately deecrated with the flags of all na- tions. Numerous varieties and qualities of starch are exhibited by George Fox. An extensive display of jellies and preserves is made in this department by Mrs. King. The Vienna Model Bakery makes a very creditable dispiay, as also do the City Flour Mills. A fine display of desiccated cocoanut is made by the Dunbam Manufacturing Com- pany. The cocoanut is preserved without sugar. Samples wiil be distributed to visit- ors during the Fair. This company also shows some fine samples of maple sugar. —_— — Agricultural Department. Twenty-seven acres in the western limits of the grounds are occupied by the display of agricultural implements. Never before in the history of St. Louis has suc an exteasive exhibition Leen mgde. Itincludes every va- riety of insftument used in agriculture, from the common hoe and “—rake to implements propelled by steam. The epen space not coyered by houses or stands is taken up by ponderous engines. The largest dispiay is made of plows. ‘here are over3W varieties. One exhibitor alone represents 150 different kinds. The Champion Machine Co., which occupies a large building, makes a magnificent display. The Weir Plow Come pany also occupy a ys Another is taken up by Buford & Co. and two others. The variety of harrows is immense, and the farmer cam find anything his mind ever sug- gested. Corn shellers and planters arein abundance, and a numerous. collection of reapers is on hand. There are threshing machines in endless variety. Buckeyse self-binder, Miller’s tabie rake,self- birding harvesters, portable engines, cider- milis,corn-shellers,feed cuiters, self-bindia g reapers, cultivators, cabbage cutters, Baker drills, standard mowers,stalk cutters, double and single plows, sulkies, cultivators, steel, chilled, Morrison, South Bend, Norwegian anda hundred others. Down one aisle in most of the buildings the visitor sees nothing but plows, and in another nothing but har- rowe. The variety of cern planters is in itself an exhibition well worth seeing. There are potato digzers and planters, hay gatherers and loaders, carriers, der-— ticks and forks, cotton planters, sweeps, scrapers and picking \- chines, corn and cob mills, grain rexig@rs, farm pumps, ecythes, root-cutters, si€kles, w heelbarrows, wushing machines, and, in- deed, everything tbat can be imagined. Several of the jargest manufacturing estab- lishments in the country are among the ex- bibitors. The Awarding Committee com- menced their inspection of articles ia this departmnt this morning. The agrizultural exhibition is under the charge of "D. K. Fer- guson, director, and William Schomhart. Fruit and Vegetable Department. In the department of fruits and vegetables, the display of fruit, especially apples and grapes, is unusually fine. Henze, of Hermann, Mo., no less than thirtv-seven of grapes and seven different kinds of native wine. Jobn G. Muller, also of Hermann, Mo., prcsents for inspection nine kinds of wine, One of the finest displays of apples ever ex- bibited at the Fair is that Jacob of a fice exbibit of a sweet, A magnificent Abrabam Hupp, of Saline, Mo., has also arieties. hee ta 8 Pak a . ads Sede yo ag pet st he ae. ca ; eee . ats sa i x " he, ’ ” OP POO i, ae : ab. we a) x mede by William Buehler.

It was market day at Northampton. The town had been unusually full, for trade was fourisbing, and throngs of people Bad come from adjacent districts to either buy or sell. As the aay advanced, the bustle and clamor in the stree’s and the market-place began to subside. Many who had risen before dawn, wko bad stood for long, wearisome hours, began to wend their way homewards. As the day was drawing to a close the hostler of the George Inn brought a well-groomed bay mare to the front entrance of that well-known place of public resort. Ina minute or so af- ter this a good-looking, pleasant-spoKen gen- tleman of some seven-and-twenty summers emerged from the house. He was, however, not unaccompanied. Several of his friends and beon companions had sallied forth from the commerciai-room to see him start on his journey. While at the doorway an animated discussicn was kept up; those in company with the owner of the bay mare rallied him aipon his taking such an early departure from the town, which, to say the truth, was not his usual! custom. ‘sAh! I guess how itis, Tom,” said one of the party; “you havea giri to meet. Don’t keep her waiting!” ‘There’s no lady in the case this time. any- how!” returmed Tom Bidmead. ‘I tell you, my good fellow, that my dav’s business is not vetover. I’vea good ten miles’ ride before me, ard have, moreover, to call.at Harleston onmvroad. The evening seems to be a little threatening, and in addition to this, I have a eood sum vf money about me, and, all thiags considered, it would be weil for meto be home as early as convenient; and so, once more, a good-night to you all!” The speaker’s foot was in the stirrup; as he gave utterance to these last words, he younte? his steed, and trotted off without fi: ther ado, Mr. duvinats Bidmead—or Tom Bidmead, as he was more familiarly termed by tis numer- ous circle ef friends and acquaintances—was generaliy esteemed a genial, warm-hearted companion. His father, Mr. William Bid- mead, Was a malter, carrying on business at West Haddon, and Tom was his factotum. On the day we first make bis acquaintance he had been doing a good stroke of business at Northampton. Taking bis way along ata centile trot, young Bidmead arrived at Harte- ston, aed halted in fromt of a roadside ‘house, which had undergone partial demolition some years before; but che landiord of the road- side Village inn, albeit 1t was aram)ling, tumbledvwn sort of a place, contrived tuo drive a tolerably profitable trade. Leaving Bidmead to transact bis business in the par- lor of this establishment, we will take a cur- sory gianuce at another part of the hosteiry. The bum of voices and the incessant rum- bling within the good dry skitile-ground de- noted that the plepelan game did not lack sup- vorters. It wasalong, low sbed-kind of a piece, With benches down the walls at eithar cod. In the oppasite corners Were two small tables, with pipes and weil-fitled mugs | The young man’s face grew troubled. > * What can it be, Mary?’’ ‘*You must get off your horse, Master Thomas, for I have something to say to ou.?’ : He dismounted and stqod, before ber as if a spell had been Jaid upon him. _ * Now,” she continued, placing both hands upon his shoulders, ‘‘it’a to be that you’re not going home to-night.”’ ‘+Where am I to go, then?’’ he inquired. She pointed to a light which gleamed faintly between the trees. ‘*Thnat is my aunt’s cottage—you’re going to sleep there to-night.” “And what for, Mary?” ‘*For this,’ she said: and she put her lips to his ear as if the words she whispered were too terrible to be spoken aloud, even at the deaa of night, axd in that lonely spot. He laughed incredulously. *‘T tell you it’s true, ’’she cried,impetuous- ly. ‘**f beard him asking questions about the road to West Haddon. More than this, Bertha Trescot, the white witch of Harleston, has propbesied that murder will be done to- bight. *? “It won’t do, Mary,” be said, now being under the impression that she was giving way tosuperstitious fears. ‘*My “— hasa good lump oflead atthe butt end of it, and the parish lantern shows a goodlight. I’il take my chence.”’ ; “Thomas,” said the girl,in a choking voice, ‘“T ask you by that which is yours and yours alone, not to goto West Haddon. I ask you, Thomas, by my love for you—by your sister’s love, not to go to West Haadon to-night.’ He muttered a few inarticulate words, and his limbs shook with emotion. ‘] shall see you to-morrow, Mary,’ he ejaculated. ‘I shall have good news for you hen.” She stared at him vacantly. ‘sAnd why not?’ he murmured. ‘*She’s handsome and hard-working, and she loves me. Nay, lassie.’’ he said, caressing her soft, glossy hair, ‘‘you’d not make a grand lady, but you’d be no disgrace tome. I wilil see you to-morrow, Mary. And nowI must go; my father and sister will be weary of waiting.?’ ‘*No, you shan’t,’? she cried, flinging her arms round him. ‘**You shan’t go! Bertha Trescot has given me timely warniog. Some one will be murdered to-night, but it shail not be you, if I can help it!’’ He struggled to get free, but her arms en- circled him like two bars of iron. ** Ye shan’t go, if I hold you here all night,”’ said the girl, mildiv, and even smiling a littie. Finding that she was determined,. he put forth all his stratagem and ail his strength, but he was unable to free himself. ‘*Mary,’’? said he, in an angry tone, *‘I am beginning to lose patience. Let me go, or we shalt surely quarre].’’ ‘*It will be the first we have ever had, ther,’’ said she, releasing him at once. He mounted his horse. ‘*Thomas!’’ she said, ina low voice. He rode up to her side. ‘*What must be, must. to persuade me.’’ He stooped and embraced her tenderly as he spoke, and kissed away the tears which were streaming down her cheeks. Then he valloped swiftiy away. She sat down upon a branch ofafal'en tree. The sky gathered over with clouds, and a cold wind sighed among the branches, strewing the ground with brown and yellow leaves. The clouds grew darker and heavier, and rose toward the moon, which was stili shining brightly. She rose suddenly, and ran with the speed of a deer down the road by which her lover had gone. An hour after this,a riderless horse, snort- ing and foaming atthe mouth, rushed into the yardof Mr. William Bidmead’s house. Three men stood around it. One ofthem held a lantern. ‘*What be this’’’? said one, examining the saddle. Lend us your lantern.’’ The saddie was covered with blood. “There’s been foul play with our young master,’’ said another. Lights were procured. A search wa; insti- tuted, and at about a quarter of a mile’s distance from the smaj] town, the dead body of Tom Bidmead was found by the roadside. His skull was fractured, and he had sustained other injuries which would have caused his death. The news of this frightful murder awaken- edithe people of Wisi Haddon and its sur- rcunding districts from their accustomed lethargy. Onmarket day at Northampton there Was a mournful meeting, and most of the farmers wore crape on their hats out of respect tothe departed. A coroner’s inquest It’s no use trying of ale. Many of the rustic population had been playing several games of skittles. Be- sides these there was a@ stranger within the sched. He was a dark, forbidding. ill-favored man; be bad contrived, however, to make jimself agreeabie enough. in one corner of the shed sat a woman, who Watched the movements of the strange man with the eyes of a basilisk. ‘This @voman’s vame was Mary Purvis. The stranger had already ixcforined the com- pany that he was atraveliag blacksmith. He uad evidently seena good deal of life, and was rich ia enecdote. Nevertheless, Mary Purvis :egarded him with looks of distrust; and the blacksmith seemed to quali before ihe giunce of her dark, lustrous eyes. Most of the skittie-piayers now repaired to the tap-room. Mary Purvisand the black- ‘mith accompented them. ‘ihe tap-room was a small, square apartment, with aw large, old- fashioned dinzied fire-place, a well-stocked beacon rack,and a deal bench round the room. While herethe blacksmith asked plenty of questions, cracked a number af joker, and Sang several songs.

He was known to nearly all of its occupants, who touched their hatsto him. “Look here, my friends,’’ said Tom, draw- ingirom his coat pocketa well-tillea bag, “vefore Ll vo. hcre is something to drink my icaith.’* And he cast several pieces of sil- ver on the tabie. _ there Was a general murmur of applause.

|. Cary, ond remem “OF: OR we ; > aa O° ae ee P bad _ public or BOSTON GOSSIP. The Amusements Dished Up for the Denizens of the “Hub.” - — — ae... Clara Morris and Her Successfal En- gagement—Her Dread of Boston Critics—A New Story About Jolly Annie Lousie Cary. ——— Special Correspondence to the Post-Dispateh. BosTON, September 29.— A _ decided event of the season is that when Clara Morris comestotown. It was buta short time ago—three years, I think—that this celebrated individual made her triumphal entry into the Hub, at the Boston Theater, as Camille. There wasavery big excitement over the matter, and equaily big houses. She herself hada bigscare. Soshe told me, at least. She was terribly afraid of Boston— ‘so awfully critical and cold-blooded, you know.” And terribly anxious as to what im- pression she would make. If good, she con- sidered that “that would settle it.’’ If bad, she seemed to think that all her previous sue- cesses would go for literally nothing, and that she should utterly sink under such a blow. That was what she told me, but it must be remembered that it was in the course of an’ interview for a Boston daily, and possibly some of it wassaid for effect. Very possibly, indeed, I should think. It may have been very true, as her devoted Mr. Clara Morris said? that he didn’t go to sleep the night after her first appearance here till the morning papers bad been brought in. You know we have such exceedingly caustic and unterrified dramatic crities here! It was doubtless true enough that she re- mained in bed, without saying aloud word, from the time she arrived in Boston till she left it to go on the stage, for that is the ordi- nary routine of life of this verv problematical I remember asking her husband could let her remain in such a terribly trying life when she was so iil all the time, and he said that though she wes ill on the stage, she eouldn’t possibly live off it, and that when she was at home for % few weeks at any time she had such dreadful spells of nervousness and hysteria. I wonder woether ske takes her mediciue on the stage now as she used todo. it was just a bit comical, and no mistake! I haven’t seen her yet in thistwo weeks’ engagement at the Park, where she is drawing the very biggest kinds of houses, cramming that de- lightful Jittle theater as full of people as it ean possibly hold. Last week she played Cora in ‘‘Article 47,’? and this week she is playing Alixe. It may be suppoged that the iady’s extreme anxiety to please Boston has somewhat mod- erated since her first visit here. Orit may have increased, perhaps. The former, if her ill- ness of a week ago Monday night was a whim onty, for Boston badly hates to he disappointed, and Boston turned out en masse on that openimg night of her Park engagement. We went with the rest, 2nd onj arriving at the theater were considerably discomposed to see one throng of pecple coming out as another poured in. **Such a crowd of people that can’t get seats,’? We commented, and began to think our own chances decidedly small. Instead of which, it was immediately explained to us by the rather unhappy agent that ‘* Miss Morrisis sickand can’t piay. And a nine hundred dollar Bouse is going straight across the street to the Giob3! Something that never happened before in the history of this theater.’’ And that is true enouch, for if ever a thea- ter deserved the regard of a never-disap- pointed public, itis the Park. However, as [ said, Miss Morris appeared on Tuesday nights, and hesn’t failed sinec:. Eve:vbody didn’t go to the Globe that night, though. As mavy as could get into the cosy litile Gaiety went there, Where there wis quite an ovation that night. every ceat, even in the balcony, being filled by “our best peo- pic.’* It wasonly by special courtesy that we obtained seats at all, amd ihat Was at an un- prececdented distance from the stage. The occasion was the first appearance as Miznon- ette in **Chimes of Normandy” of Mrs. H. E. H. Carter, a very brigat, black-eyed local celebrity of cur own, in acompany mide up principally of Boston favorites, with Vir. Hen- rv Peakes in his really wonderful assumption of Gaspard, the Miser. Lite Mrs. Carter madea very bright and pleasing Miynonette, certuiniy, and she is sure to make a big bit wherever she plays it, for her acting and singing are cqtrally good. I had ro ides =be was such an actress, nor that she could flirt sodelightfuliy on the stage. She was quite smothered in flowers, and among her mest enibusisstic admirers Were Many members of the profession, who were scattered through the houze. That term, Dy-the-way, is afar more inclus- ive one thau it ever used to be. Whata mul- titude of sins innocent **‘Pinafore’’ will have to answer for, if topo on the stage be a sin! For what numberless companies, half ama- teur, half professiona', were formed for the performai.ce of that jolly bit of nonsense, and hew few of them have considered them- | selves justified iu disbanding since cneimm:- Giate cause of iheirc forming h:s “played.” The glamour of the ¢footlights is upon them, tempereu tw the mld gieam of unwonted re- weéctabili‘y, which the ‘‘Piasfore’’ rage shed -7ypon all who sang in it,and which still pro- tects them fromthe opprobrium that would, five years ago, have bien more or Icss show- ered uponthem. In fact, itis decidedly the fashion for young people who can sing a note to belong to some lizht opera company, either rivate, and the latter generaily graduate into the former. The Germaine of the play as given by the company of which [’ve been spzakinz is taken by Mrs. Flora Barry, another Boston favorite, but whom I certainly never saw to such pocr advantage before. She is charm- ing in concert, but she is very far from being an actress, and bas no tact at all in dressing. Instead of appearing any more youthful toan she is, she actually looks a great deal older— which, for the character, is an unquestioned misfortune. Butshedoes sing beautifully. In her arias, her superb contralto voice was displayed to fizest effect. Idon’t think it is genera'ly known that Mrs. Bir r,’s voice came very near to extin- uishing the Mreniticent one of Auntie Louise aiy’s. Shis world-famed contralto wasa sister-in-law of Mrs. Barry’s some years ago —jt would never doto say how many—and came up to Boston from her childhood home in Maine, in the hope that she might be able to cultivate ber natural taste for music. She lived tor some time in her brother’s family, *she!ping” his wife with the housework —in fect, aecordingto my informant, who knew allitbe parties well at the time, doing the most of it herself,and findiog little time and less oppcrtunity for music. If ber’s had been a soprano Voice, it might have been different. But just then the young and pretty Mrs. Ca- ry’s singing had begaun to bring her inte popular notice and favor, and the feeliags of the husband and wife may be imagined whea they discovered that so dangerous a rival was under their ownroof. Whether they encour- aged or discouraged the young sister, I aon’t retend to know, but it 1s certain that she ound friends who were willing and able to help her, that she left her brother’s house to go to them, and that, after the usual experi- ence of struggies ana hard work, she bas be- come the Aanie Louise Cary of to-day, whom eversbody loves and of whom ber country is proud. Mrs. y herself has bad an eventful life, quite the life of | -day romance, which would bave been an impossibility a century or 80 ago, but through the whole experience sbe bas proved herself the charming | and true woman whom 2 Ny public scanda . por permanently injure. , , By-the-wey, speaking of Annie Loulke , 4 t ae ye. ba : : oe ot oe Fe Je ‘ 2 . eG fa “a ad ‘ a “xy 5 vy o> ee € +¢ {ae ae eae we oe, Bee 4 usually has in his One matter well know, if you do have more than once started on quite as fruitless an excursiop away under the buggy seat, shane where she might leave it.

Buttheyali knew who she was abd doggedly refused to accommodate one who had once been of themselves and as poor asthe poorest. Atlast one pert young woman spoke out what all the others proba- bly felt. **You’d better go home and do it yourself. You ought to know how, for your mother usea to take in washin’, and my mother never did! Ishan’tdo your dirty work for you!” But the good-nearted prima donna did not desert her native place on account of any s=ch small meannesses, and has now a beautiful home there, at which she spends all the time tis at her jersure. (s this letter seems likely to deal with the» atrical matters only, I must tell you of the grand rejuvemation at our Boston Museum. Everybody in the United States knows of the Boston Museum, and of the famous old come- dian Warren, whoisits chief bulwark. As its name indicates, itisreally avery extens- ive museum of curiosities of many kinds, and perhaps many stealthy peeps at the play have been taken by young people wiiose parents have permitted a visit to the innocent mu- seum, but would never have allowed a chiéd of theirs to set foot in a wicked theater! Then, too, there are a large class of people who go to the Museum, but never to any other theater, on account of the deserved fame which the place has always sustained for producing only the very best plays and in the best manner. The stock company is one of the very few good ones yet remaining in the country, and ite principal people are as familiar aud as dear to Boston as household intimates. It ® almost impossible to keep from bowing when we meet dear old Warren, dignified Charles Barron, graceful Annie Clarke or funny o!d Mes. Vincent. Well, when we knew the Museum was to be remodeied wetrembled and dreaded it, fearing never to feei so much at home agaia. But it was a useless scare. The remodeling bas taker place duiing the summer, and, though greatly enlarged and beautitied, it is still the same cear old place. The stage has been sunk a floor below where it was, giviug & much larger auditorium,and twofbaiconies, with proscenium boxes and other improve- ments. The orchestra has been sunk heneath the stage, new and commodious exits and en- trarnces opened, 2 perfect system of vewlilation adopted, the ceiling exquisitely frescoed to represent the blue sky and sum- mer clouds, and a most arilatic curtain has been added to complete the charming whole. ‘Scrap of Paper’? and the Warren farwe, | Turn Him Out,’’ bave been filling the house the last two wéeks, and cext Monday the an- nual “Old Comedy Season,’’ a favorite feae ture ofthe house, will open with ‘‘Londan Assurance,’’ to be followed the next evening with **Old Heads and Young Hearts.’’ The other theaters are ull doing big busi- ness already; the concert season is opsning splendidly, and as for the lectures and enter- tainments, just Iet me clip from the Herald of the other evening: ‘‘Music Hall Place was pretty effectually blocked as early as 6 o’clock this mormmiaog by those who desired to be purchasers of the tickets to the Robert’s Lyceumand Oijid Bay State courses of entertainments duriog the oming season. Many persons werein line mostof the night, and a crowd of thirty was dispersed iast evening at8o’clock. Supt. Peck opened the sale at 6:40 a. m. and con- tinued it throughout the day.’? IDA CLARE. MAJOLICA WARK. Where the Clay is Found and How the Ware is Made. Pesaro (Italy) Correspondence New York Pos?. Theie exists an old sixteenth century treatise On the art of Making vases of majolica (the word was not thenapplied to this ware), wriiten and illustrated br a majolica painter | old saying «bout of the time, Car. Cipriano Piccolpasso of Castie Durante. Jt bas recently been repub- jt bed froma rare copy of the work in pos- session of Connt Mattei. Ittreatsof ail the old methodsy the kind of clay, when aud how itisto be collected, the composition of the Various colors to be used, the fourm of brush- es and the construction of the furnace. The ciay for the fine majolica is deposited by the rivers of the country of majolica—the Metuaro. the Fogiio, the lsauro—and itis usually gathered in the rain or after the great storms which wash down the naked goil of the Apennines to tbe river beds. A most amusing aud quaintold print accompanies Piccolpasso’s treatise, and representsa hill country with towers and casties and a rapid river- bed under a pouring rain; the banks in layers of mud Jike the banks of the Nile, in cubve-like deposits of fine sol, and aclay- digger joading a donkey. Another picture represents a high set, castellated town, under a great-faced tun which tills up the whole shy—a graphic expression of his sweltering mejesty—baking the clay. Naked clay-dig- vers toil on the wiver’s bank. When toe rain fadls upon the Apenines and swells the yiyers with a turbid flood, the lighter pari of the Washings offhe bills set- tles at the sides of the rivers, an‘lis left one or two feet high, asoft red and gray clay. It is so fine und soft that it suggests manipula- tion, andinvitestho plastic hand. Cover- ing thisclay, when moulded, with a white and vitrifiable composition, we have the various majolicas of Italy—either made from the finer cluy of the rivers, or dug out of cave deposits; and Pesare produces the col}- ors Which adorn her majolica. A majolica painter of Pesaroinformed me that he re- lied chiefly upon the colorsj,of Pesaro, as seither German nor Freneh colors equaled and brilliancy those of Pesaro. In every serse the mujolica of Italy % wholly in- digenous tuit.

Precious things are not repeated, they are only imitated. But if great genius in art is the spriag of our best interest in and Jove for it, the ways of our life may be re- freshed and graced by the streams which the springs of genius have fed.

Hamilten, who is now past four score, pas proposed to erect a statue of the eminent siatesman, which will bs placed amorg the dignitaries of the Central Park. Itis not generally Known that the house which Hamilton buiit and occupied during the last part of his iife is stili standing and isin good condition. Hamilton called it ‘tthe Grange,’’ and it was then his cguntry seat, but at present itis within the city pre- cincts. He left this house on the morning of the duel (July 10, 1804), and before 8 o’clock had received the fatal wound. The house in which he died is aiso still standing. It was at that time occupied by a friend, and the dying man was carried thither for conveni- ence of medical treatment, but in two days he wasa corpse. Hamilton’s funeral was the most impressive this city has ever witnessed with the single exception of the obsequies of Linceln, and minute guns were fired duriog the march of the procession.

Every succeeding year, nevertheless, has brought a decreased number of cases, and this has been attributed by the Board of Health tothe sanitary measures that have been so effectively enforced. Itisonlya few years ago, comparatively speaking, that there were a great many wells in this ~~ Tais source of water supply was found to be a very — cause of typhoid fever, andthe wells ave gradually but surely been filled up and fallen into disuse. They became contaminat- ed by organic matter and polluted by the washings from cesspools and insecure drains. The Sanitary Inspectors followed up eases of typhoid fever to these wells, and one afver anotker they were rapidly closed. Besides the contaminated wells. it was found that defective sewers and faulty plumb- ing w ere causing outbreaks of typhoid fever. As sanitary measures became better under- stood, traps began to be widely employed to protect the inmates of houses from noxious gases generated in the sewers. The prin- ciple of the trap is generaliy understood by the public. Ithas been found difficuit for these gases to pass through water, andif they | do they are deprived of their poisonous char- actewistics. Many devices have been invented to preventthe traps beiag emptied, either by suction, siphoning or any other means. The Board of Health reached the conclusion long ago that ventilation of traps alone was a pre- vextive of their being emptied unintentionally. The policy of the department, therefore, has been thoroughly to accomplish this much-to- be- desired end by extending the soil.pipe at full calibreto and through the roof of a house and properly connecting this pipe with every branch waste-pipe. The Sanitary In- spectors were instructed to Laake inspections from house to house, and order the plumbing to be properly-trapped and ventilated. This course has led to a very gaeat diminution in the number of cases of typhoid fever in this cil¥. As any accumulation of organic matter in the celiar, or neara dwelling or tenement, has been found to be a cause of typhoid fever, Commissioner Janeway has givena standing order that the premises in each case reported shall be thoroughly disinfected. This has often been the means Of limiting the number of cases wherever an Outbreak has occurred. A few weeks ago Inspector Tracy investigated the causes of an outbreak of typhoia fever in the lower partof West street, and discevered several facts of exceed- ing interest to the medical profession and the pubiic. The sewerage inthis part of West sireet is through open troughs, or gutters, jeadinpg along the sides of the street. Oae case Was thai of asaloon-Keeper, who had been a very heaithy man until this attack of disease. He bad been im the habit of sitting on the edgeof the sidewalk hear the gutter. He would tilt his chair agaiutta lamp -post and read the newspaper bere for several hours atatime. He was attacked witha cbul. Fever and great prostration followed, and he died in about three ‘weeks, after exbibdiiing all the symptoms of typhoid fover. A short distance further Cown the street there was an cutbresak of tyvnoid fever under very sim- ilar circumstances. One after unother wa; prostrated, until four persons became victims of that disense. On careful investigation is was found that the waste-pipes: leading from the sinks in all of these Cases had bezome beavily couted With grease. This grease ac- cumulated in considerable quantities. This decayed and seut forth a foul, noxious odor which at first were thought to have been a factor in inducing these cases of typhoid fever, were icund to be quite cleanly, that pervaded the houses. As the gutters it was believed that these cases were induce; by the foul emanations from the grease-lined waste-pipes. Other cases were investigated with similar conditions, and 1% has seemed Clear thatthe decaying grease adhering to waste-pipes from kiichen sinks, especially those of saloons and boarding-houses, may be a cause of an outbreak of typhoid fever. ‘The remedy tor this condition of things is ex- ceedingly simple. If a strong solution of caustic potash or soda be made with hot water, and this be poured down the foal waste-pipe, it can be thoroughly cleansed of the accumu- lation of grease. This, to be effective in pre- venting disease, should be done several tiaaes every year, or a8 often as any foul odors are noticed escaping from the sink-hole, THE MORAVIANS. A Scct that is Increasing inthis Coun- try—An Interesting People. From the New York Tines. The sect know as the Moravians, called also, Usited Brethren and Moravian Brothers, is said to have considerably increased in this country, mainly by immigration, within ths last filteen years. They make, as a rule, ex: cellent citizens, being intelligent, industriou:, orderly, and noted for thrift. They are remarkably bonest and conscientious, and, though clanoish and exclusive, are geverally welcomed in any community where they set- tle. They trace their origin tothe fol!owers of Jobn Huss, persecuted and expelled from Bohemia and Moravia at the begianigg of tae last century. A very small company of them—they numbered only ten persons at first—received permission from Count Z.nzendorf.in 1722 to settle on his estate of Berthelsdorf, in Saxony. (‘hey named the settiement Herrnhut, whence they are commonly known throughout Germany as Herrphuters. They rapidiy creased, not enly through accessions of native refugees, but of other Christians, attractem by their de- served reputation for piety and faith. Until Zinzendori’s death (1760), he wap their leader, but, after that, their organization was com- pleted by tyncds beid in 1764 an@ 1769. Thoy profess to be connected with the Bohemian or Morsvian brethren of former times by a reg- ular succession of bishops, who, however, exercise no episcopal authority, their princi- paj and exclusive function being tha’ of ordi- nation. Every congregation is governed by a conference of elders, who are obdiiged to visit each fainily once in three months, and to giye information abontthe maintenance of relig- ious worship and the behavior of the breth- ren. ltistheir duty, likewise,to visit the sick and poor, and aid them, if needed, with money contributed by the society. The gov- ernmg synods meet always in Germany, at intervals of ten or \welve years, and are com- posed of Brominens members of the laity as wellas of bishops. Altho scattered to some extent amongthe general population of the lands where they dwell, they prefer, when practicable, to live in colonies or te 80- cieties. These they divide into choirs of chil- dren, youths, maidens, u d-bretbren, unmarricd sisters, widows agd widowers, each having a separate leader or pastor. They are most numerous in Gernit nas oot exist in Eagland, Holl mi the U ‘States. The religious service of the ans is condudted with great simplic: .

From the New York Herald, lst. | Johp McKalvey and Katie Smith were em- Joyes of Hamil & Booth’s silk mill, and had ooms not far from each other. An acquaint- ance soon ripened into love, and for a long time their fellow employes bad looked for- ward to a marriage. John lived at Totowa, a suburb of Patterson, and Katie on Vroom street, several miles distant. Though John’s parents were aware that he was paying atten- tion to some young lady, yet he had never divuiged to them the object of his affections. Yesterday morning was the time agreed on between the couple for the tying of the nup- tial knot. No secret was made ofthis in the mill, and consequently St. Joseph’s Catholic Church was crowded at the time by mill operatives. The ceremony had been fixed for 8 o’ clock, and at that hour Father Smith was ready. Tothe astonishment of a'l, neither bride nor groom putin an appearanct. After waiting ashort time, mass was celebrated and the curious crowd dispersed, to ascertain, if possible, the cause of this unexpected delay. Inquiry at the house of the bride revealed the fact that she was ready and was await- isg the arrival of the groom, who had not been seen nor heard from. Several friends at once repaired to the residence of the dila- tory groom and were informed that he was absent. The bride did not know what to do in this dilemma, until word reached her from John that all was right, and that the marriage had only been postponed on account of una- voidable circumstances. It appears that Joho was somewhat bashful about imparting to his relatives any knowledge concerning his com- ing marriage, and had put itofffrom time to time, until he finally broke the ice late on Wednesday night and conveyed te his parents the astonisbing information that he was to be married in the morning. They at once on- jected to his doing so until they could ascer- tain who the young ladv was. They, howev- er, promised that no obstacle would intervene in case she should prove to have an unobjec- tienable character. John at once set aDout to eve this, and did so without any trouble. iverything being amicably arranged and the relatives of both parties agreeable, the priest was again sent for, when it was found that he had gone to New York. Again was the ceremony postponed; this time, however, for a brief period, and the happy pair were made one in St. Joseph’s Church last evening at 9 o’clock. The matter created considerable excitement, and as it be- came known in the afternoon that the mar- riage wae tocome off after ali], numbers of mili operatives and others remained in the vicinity of the church until their curiosity was gratified by seeing the twice delayed ceremo- ny performed. Advice About Funerals. From a Sermon of Rev. J. C. White, of Cincinnati In the preparation and arrangements for the burial, let as little time and money us possible be expended by showy surroundings. The less of these things the better> Have only enough show for proper respect, for public decorum and socail respect. Weare getting to mingle adversity and prosperity together, and are getting to be unable to dis- tinguish the moral difference. We are now hardly able to distmguishb between a funeral anda wedding. Atfuneralsthe tendency is toward extravagance and pride, and, asa consequence, toward vice and the meanest foliy. Funerals are devenerating into the most seitish, expensive, meaningless services. As the vulgar expression is, they are simply ceremonies to give the dead “ta good send= off..? The coffin is covered wi tinsel and finery totally out of place, considering the surroundings of the deceased when alive, man will spend $50 for carriage hire at the fureralefbis wife, when he never spenta dollar on riding fur her when alive. Ata great deal of sacrifice a husband will bduya profusion of cestly flowers fer the decoration of his wife’s coffin aud grave when he never bought a pot plant for ths brightaing of her chamber auring years of sickness and suffer- ing. If possibie, the funeral should be ona day other than the Sabbath, soas not to inter- fere wilh the pastor’s regular duties at stated services. A vizorous protest against the too fiecue@mt and very often disgusting habit of public leave-taking of the bedy was imade. The leave-takinug of our beloved dead should always be made in private, and not beforea crowd of idie, curious and unsympathizing spectators. All the funeral ceremonies should be simple, vut strikingly symbolical. A simple piece of crape onthe door or worn on the person 1s sufficient *to deuote death in the family. Tattooing a Child’s Kye-Ball. From the Louisville Courier-Journal. An ingenious aud skilful operation was poriormed upon a litile girl, yesverday afcer- noon, at St. Joa: ph’s lLofirmary. Tae chiid bad previously suffered from am attack of whati» tcchnically termed ‘‘ulcerative ker- atitis,”? in other words, an ulceration of the transparent portion «f the eye-bail. Tais ii fammation and u!ceration having subsiled there was left of course, wWuat always f liows, ascer. This souriu the corneris opaque and of u milky color, and interferes with tae vis- ion by obstructing the rays of light as they pass into the eye, and at the same time pro- duces an objectionable deformity which no one Wishesto have. Theobjectsto be secured by the operation were two-fold: First, to remove the deformi:y; second, torestore the vision to the affeciedeye. The first object was the one sovzhbt in yesterdav’s operation. Tha child was put under the isflueace of an anw;- thi tic, and then, a drop of ink being placed upon tbis spot, the operatcr made an innu- merable number of incisions into it with a needle-knife, that is to say, by a process of tattooing, colored this white spot black. This eccures the first object; the second remains to be secured by avother operation, because the cbstruction siiil remains, though, being of the color of the pupil or theiris, is not dis- tinguishable by any but a close ovoserver. Their, or colored curtain which hangs oehind the transparent portion of the globe, and which gives the heavenly blue, or the cold gray, or the passionate black eye, ac- cordivyg as to how nature wishes to color it, has a circular aperture for the admission of ravs of light, aud, as this opacity of the cor- nealainitront of that apervure, excluding thoseravs cf iight, theres remains but one thing to do, and that is to make another open- ing in that curtain, or extend the one already there. Ifitisimpossible to go through an obstruction or to remove it, then the simplest thing, of course, isto gcfaround it. This is what 1s done by this operation of cutting out a portion of the iris, whichis called ‘“‘iridec- tomy.’’ This piece of the iris is usually taken cut just above the pupil, for the reason that it is less noticeable in thatsituation than any other. ‘he creait of reviving this operation of tattooing is due to M. de Wecker, though the operation was performed at a very remote date. Toa Mr. Higgins, of Guy’s Hospital, London, is Que the credit of completing the operation at one sittting. These are some of the achievements of modern surgery, for, though practiced in earlier days, these oper- ations were not made so skillfully as nowanod were abandoned on account of the indifferent —e obtained by those who performed em.

The Zoological Garden will be the interest- ing teature as usual. Several additions have been made at various times during the past week. Twenty-five or thirty monkeys have been added to the collection on hand. This is a never-failing source of amusement for children, who can stand at the cage al) day long and laugh at the pranks of the animals. With one exception all the animals are in good trim. One ofthe hyenas is suffering from a spinal affection. The whole body is paralyzed, and itis not expected that it will recover from this, which is the second attack it has already had. The buffalo bull which recently gored its keeper is still vicious, and the less visitors attempt to disturb him the better it will befor those who venture too near the inciosure. Three American Indian Nation thers born five weeks ago at the garden have been added to the cage in the de- partment containing the cat kind. A very pretty gazelle and two yaks have been added to the collection. , The Booths. The booths all opened up bright and early this morning. By 10 o’clock considerable business was being done and ail the booths liberally patronized. If fair weather will ex- tend over the week the proprieters hope to come out far ahead of expenses. The most prominent booths are managed by well- known down-town saloon-keepers, who promise the very best for their money. Ia nearly all the booths meals can be had at any hour in the day. The following churches and institations own booths, which will be run during the week in their interest: North Presbyterian Church, Pres- byterian Home, Trinity Methodist Episcopal Church, Central Christian Church, Grace Episcopal Church and Girls’ Industrial Home. Booth No. 46 has been reserved for the press and was yesterday putin good con- dition, the interior being whitened and reno- vated. THE AILANTHUS SILKWORM. America to Rival Ohina inthe Pro- duction of Silk. From the Brooklyn Eagle. There are two errors wideiy prevalent which need correction. The firstis thatthe ailantbus tree is of ro earthly benefit, except to create an odor which 1s not at ali welcome, and which attacks nervous asthmatic persons with peculiar severity. The second is, that it 1s impossible to raise or cultivate the silk- Worm wiih any degree of success in this lati- tude. The trueor mulberry silkworm can not be successfully raised in the Northern or Kastern Staies, although it can be cultivated with admirable results in Caiifornisa and in several of the Southern States. But, ifthe true silkwoim can not be _ cultivated, another very valuable silkworm can be reared with facility. The latter worm feeds only on the leaves of the ailanthus tree, and has been cultivated with such success in Brooklyn as to suggest a new local industry, which will give employment to many persons, and lay the foundation of a great fortune for some far-seeing and saga- cious capitalist. The mulberry silkworm needs a warm climate for its proper develop- ment, and therefore in Maryland, parts of Virginia, California and probably Georgia and Florida, itcan be raised to advantage. In California it has been successfully cultivated for many years. M. Trevost, a French gen- tleman, wbo recently died, had an extensive cocoonery in that State, where he raised large quantities of silk. One great drawback here to the manufacture of silk or tbe raising of the silkworm is that there is no reeling estab- lishment or place where they manufacture siik from the cocoon. If this difficulty could be obviated, silk could be raised in tuis city in great quentities. In fact, its production in this aud various parts of .the United States would exceed tnat of the great si'k- producing empire—China. If a method to ree] tie si'k on an endless thread, as in th2 case of the silkworm, could be devised, the cultivation couid be carried on with great sdvantage. Hereisahint for the inventor towork out, and which, if successfully de- veloped, would repay him well for his labor. The cocoon ia the silk receptacle which the caterpillar weaves or spins around him. Itis of an oblong or oval shape, the size of a small pigeon’s egg. Thecaterpillar spins or casts its skin four times from thetime it hatches, at a period of from five to eight days between exch period of moulting. It begins to spin its cococh from twenty-four to thirty davs from the time of hatching. The moth or chrysalis makes its appearance with- in eight ortends:yvs after the eocoons have been spun. Itis necessary where the sWk is cultivated as an urticle of commerce, in or- der to obtain it, toexpose the cocoon to a cegree of heat which kiils the chrysalis. As itis, even now, the cocoons of the ailanthus silkworm can be combed and spun into a thread or yarn, which forms a very beau: tiful and useful fabric, not quiteso glossy or briliiant as the true silk, but extremely dur- able. This product makes a cioth that in its texture resembles u combioation of wool and silk, and will wash like a piece of cloth without shrinking. ‘Numberless attemots have been made toraise this worm in Eag- land or France, but they have proved futile in desirable results in consequence of the unsuccessful cultivation of the ailanthus tree, which will not flourish in either country. a | Safety of Railway Travel. (From the New York Sun. The lines of railways in the five divisions of the earth cost, in round numbers, $16,000,- 000, and would, according to Baron Kolb, reach eight times round the globe, although it is but little over half a century since the first railway worked by steam was opened be-* tween Darlington and Stockton, September 27, 1825, and between Manchester and Liver- povul, September 15,1830. It isshown that in France, previons to the existence of railways, there was one passenger in every 335, killed, and one out of every 30,000 wounded, whereas between 1835 and 1875 there was but one in every 5,178,890 killed, and one in 580,- 450 wounded, sothat we maviafer that tie tendency to accidents is yearty diminishing. Railway traveling in England is attended with greater risk than in avy other countey ina Europe. A’French statistician observes that if a person were to live continually in a rail- Way carriage and spend all his time in rail- way traveling, the chances in favor of his d;- ing from a railway accident would not occur till he was 960 years old. London’s Lord Mayor. From the New York Times. The average Frenchman, it is said, cannot understand that the Queen of Enagiand is anything more than the chief subject of the ‘*Lor’ Maire’’ of London. To regard him merely as one cf our own Mayors, even after making all due allowance for the colossal size and wealth of London, would, however, be to err nearly as far in the opposite direction, In the city, the Lord Mayor has ali the rank ‘which a Kingcan enjoy, and he takes pre- cedence ofthe Queen herself as soon as she passes Temple Bar.

From the New York Grapbic. To the other 1mportant properties of wool, which are suflicient proof of its suitability for clothing, anew one has been added by Pro. fessor Jaeger’ s latest investigations, which we wi'l only mention briefly, asan explicit description would occupy too much space, Jaeger has proved that ip our Organism there are certain gaseous volatile substances, called by him ‘*Duftstoffe’’? (odorous substances), which play a very important part, as yet un- divized. He endeavors to show that the ac. tions of our mind are meditated by tuese sub- stances and that they arecontinually rendered free in the acts of breathing and perspiring, He discerns two different groups of odorous substances—‘‘Lust and Unilust Stolfe’’ (sub. stances of pleasure and disliking). The first ones are exhaled during a joyful and agreea.- ble state ‘of mind, and produce this state of mind if inhaled. Just the reverse is true of the second ones. Whoever will take the paing can discover for himself that the evaporation differs according to the condition of the mind - as well as the condition of the body. During joy and happiness the odor of perspiration is not disagreeabie, while during anguish and great nervous excitement it is offen-ive. The substances of disliking have, therefore, a bad odor. In an atmospnere of these substances the vitality is lowered and disadvantaceously isSatneed. This accounts for the fact that inastate of anguish and fear the body 1s more susceptible to contagious diseases. [he inhaling of t ‘‘substance of pleasure’’ heightens the vital actions and improves the resistibility of the body against sickness. Jaeger has now discovered that ‘sheep’; woo!”? attracts the ‘*substanpces of pleasure’ (this property must not be confused with the great capacity ef wool for absorbingfodors in gen- eral), while clothing made of plant fibre fay- ors the accumulation of the offensive **sub- stances of dislike,’’ with all their evil conse- quences. Even with healthy persons, cotton and linen clothing, after long wearing, takes a distiuctively repulsive odor, while woolen clothing, even in summer, when evaporation is stroug, takes only the sour smell of per- tpiration, end rever accumulates other offen- sive smelis. ‘ihis seemingly unimportant fact, the weniioun of which may be ridiculed by man, is, nevertheless, of the greatest val- ue to medical sce:ence, and has proved of the highest imporisace for the ‘‘resisiibility of the human body against contagious disease.” Veteran Clergzgymen. From a New York Letter. The most promiment retired clergymaa in this city at present is the senior Tyny, whois now in his eighty-first vear. It is fifty-nine years since he entered the ministry, in which for half a century he was so eminently successful. His style of oratory was bold and trencbant in the pulpit, but when he appeared on tbe platform he oceasiunally gave scope to his powers of sarcasm, Which were of the most pungent character. He has been in the service of St. George’s Chureh for thirty-five years, and is now retired on a pension of $5,000 a year. His thrée sons entered the ministry, but the oldest and most gifted was early removed by death, inthe miust of avery useful career. Two others are still in the work. of these, who bears the father’s name, is rec- tor of the Church of Holy Trinity, and has reached marked distinction as a useful and devoted man. He has, as has been above re- marked, just returred from Europe, a tour readered necessarv by failing healtn. Dix, the rector of Trinity, is fifty-three. He is the best paid among the city clergy, having an elegant house and $1,000 amonth for a very lightdegreeof service. Bishop Potter, who is at ibe head of the New York (Episcopa!) Diocese, is now seventy-eight, and is still in the exercise of bis official duties. He has been fifty-three years in tke ministry, and more than a quarter century in his present office.
