On the street it was geperally believed, that Mr. Gould should again adopt this method of silencing traducers. It dia very well in the spring of 1882 for Mr. Gould to exhibit to Frank Werk, his wealth, but the brokers thought that to repeat this exhibition was diligent inquiry, the Post-DISPATCH corre- spondent learned that the present exhibié was not made to one gentleman. The purpose, however, is the same as the first exhibit—to convince the beholder of Mr. Gould’s unassailable financial strength. The geutleman, it was learned, whe had the pleasure of feasting his eye on Mr. Gould’s vast store of securities was Mr. John T. Terry, the banker. Mr. Terry is a trustee of the Ed Morgan estate and is a director in the West- ern Union, and a personal friend of Mr. Gould. Mr. Terry had left his office for his home on the Hudson, where the reporter called upon him, but au intimate business associate of his related the particulars of the exhibit. „Now. to think that so big a rumor should fi» from so simple a transaction,” he said. “For your sonal satisfaction and to save you the trouble of inquiring further I WILL TELL YOU THE STORY. Mr. Terry on Friday was shown a news Clipping, stating that Mr. Gould bad been obli to necotiate a loan for two million pounds ster- Ting. Beluga friend of Mr. Gould and desirotis of affording such assistance to him as he was need of, Mr. 2 proceeded to his office a showed him the slip containing the account of the reported loan. Well, Mr. Goul ‘You man who has shown I have not negotiated such a loau, and am in no peed of money.’ I am vee? giad to bear it,’ said Mr. „* ‘Lwish. Mr. Terry.“ continued Mr. Gould, ‘that you woul d take a look iuto my vault and see for yourself thai I am in no need of pecu- niary assistance just yet. Here George.“ turn- ing to his son George J. Gould, ‘put coat, take Mr. Terry up to ‘Why, Mr. Gould,’ protested Mr. Terry, 1 don't ask or wish to do that. I am entirely satisfied.’ ‘But I insist,’ saia Mr. Gould.’ ‘I want you to see our vault, anyhow.’ By this time G 0 had his coat and hat on and was dragging Mr. Terry out of the office. Mr. Gonld has a large rivate vauit in the Equitable building, and re it was that George conducted Mr. Terry, THE VAULT WAS OPENED bo taken and the big pack of payin hs — tO | Mr. Terry’s KM cna satisfaction.” “What did Mr. Terry say,” asked the reporter of his informant. “Oh, that of course, I am not at liberty to state, but the securities he saw amouuted to willions, millions, millions.” It was impossible to ascertain the exact amount of securities exhibited to Mr. Terry, as that gen- tleman was honor bound not to mention the figures, but irom the dest sources attainable, it is ascertained that Mr. Gould owns and bolds at least a miliion shares of various kinds of stocks and bonds. Mr. George Gould was seen last evening at his father’s house. “I must ask Mr. Gould,” was the reply, and after an absence of several minutes he returned, saying. “You had better sec Mr. Gould; I don’t find Mr. Gould, and of course don’t like to talk about bis business.”’ “May 1 deny this story on your authority?” asked the reporter. “No, I will neither deny nor affirm it. I won't say anything about it. Go and see Mr. Terry.” In obedience to this advice the reporter called on 2 indicated who said: “I do not want my name mentioned in connec- tion with this matter, which has the least signifi- cance. Mr. Gould wanted me to see his vault, which he considers a very fine one, and so Friday I went down to the Mutual Trust Company with George Gould. 1 did not go to his securities at all, but SIMPLY TO SKE THE VAULT. which is indeed wortu an inspection. It is at least ten feet square, and quite as high, and has in it thirty openinus for the deposit of securities. I only examined two of these, one of which con- tained Western Union and the other Missouri Pa- cific. I only counted the securities in one of them, and I did this out of curiosiiy, because ti contained Western Union. Tue * Syndi- cate of Liars.“ as they ave been aptly called, had incustriously circulated the rumor that Mr. Gould had parted with all of his Western Union stock, and suv I had a little curiosity to see bow much of it he had,” “and how much did you und?“ “Tiound $26,187,500 worth, with one half share over. In the other opening, which contained Missouri Pacific, | only examined one package of the securies, bul there were several other pack- amn.“ “How much was there in the package which ou examined?” ‘I don’t know exactly, but there was over 810. 000,000 worth, and there were securities in ali the other openings in the vault, as I have said. Talk about breaking Jay Gould? They might as well try to break the universe.” “Is there no way of punishing those men that spread these lying reports?“ “There ought to de, and I think some of them will be puuished, A Chicago newspaper the other day had a headline ‘Jay Gould Bursted.“ if I was Mr. Gould, I'd sue that paper for $1,000,000, and there are some of the New York papers that have had articles about Mr. Gould clearly libelousif he chose to prosecute them. A BROKER LAST NIGHT SAID that the following Was a fair approximation of Mr. Gould’s preseut holding ot stock: Western Union, 420,000 shares; Missouri Pacific. 160.000 shares; Mauhattan, 65,000 shares; Wabash, 200,- 000 shares; miscellaneous. 155,000. Total, 1,000,- 00% shares. Another rumors was circulated yesterday by the Syndicate, which has been in- dustriously endeavoring of late to injure his credit. This report was to tic effect that the Mercantile Trust Company had been obliged by the Dank examiner to cali in certain loans made to Mr. Gould, as he was borrowing too much money on Western Union. Mr. Fiizgerald, pres- ident of the Trust Company, denied this aud said that the last loan made to Mr. Gould or to W. E. was pun of on October 26, ast, an that no money had been loaned to him since for the sim- ple reason that Mr. Gould could obtain all the money he needed elsewhere at lower rates than the Trust Company was in the habit of extend- ing. The announcement in yesterday’s WORLD that Mr. Gould proposed to punish under the law those who are circulating false rumors coucern- him was the talk of the street. The chief difficulty in executing the law passed two ears ago to punish those spread- un false — — for the purpose of affecting the price of stocks has been that only WHO COULD BE PROVEN to “kmowingly” circulate‘such rumors could be convicted.

GRANT OBJECTS. | Phe Ex-President Feels Very Much Aggrieved » . * Concerning Certain Rumors. Nrw YorK, January 23.—Gen. Graut nas sent following letter to the Washington Evening 55 relative to the pending Mexican treaty: 4 “NEW YORK CiTy, January 22, ’84. o the Editor of the Evening Star: Of Saturday, headed The Mexican Treat, the following paragraph: “WHY SOME SENATORS VOTED AGAINST IT. “A Sema for this reason. are partoers in Mexico, and they obtained me ge concessions for that Government — to rallroad and steamboat lines. Now G aut isthe United States Commissioner and d the Mexican Commissioner, and both of tt mi | exceedingly anxious to have the treaty ; it was suspecied, and reaily I can't Am was more than suspicion, that these partners in business, had big private 3? that treaty, that it would aid them in Bag the monopolies they want, and as no couid be discovered in the treaty, nat! int enough to ou:weigh this suspicion, feral Seuators whom I know conciuded plan tobe to vote against it.’ Petatement that Grant aud Romero are Sin Mexico and that they have obtained Pee Concessions from that Gvvernument in to raliroad and steamboat lines is wholly foundation. Mr. Romero and myself in our lives any IM transac ons transactions ot any kind. Si ce the our rebellion and the expulsion of Maxi- pm Mexico there has been a warm sym- aye en Romero and myself.

In parigtaph quoted above you say „ and really 1 can’t say it wa; suspicion, that these two men, part- ners in business, had big private interests in that — 4 that it would aid them in developing mo- nopolies they want,’ etc. As stated above, Mr. o and myself are not partners in anything. 6 have, neither of us (I certainly have not), any more interest in the ratificalun of that treat than any other private citizeu of my country. 1 believe its ratification would be a great step towards establishing tiiose relations between tiv two contiguous republics which ought to exist, and which would de to their mutual ad- vantage. I might say here that in some argumenis which 1 have read ju the periouicais, I have seen urged against ihe treaty the fact that Cuba was so near Mexéo that it would be an easy matter to shiv their sugar to that country and resbip it from there, thus evad- ing duties. Of course, stringent laws would ve passed to make such acts dangerous. But asiue from any law, there are twoauswers to that o»- jeciion to the treaty, either of which is in itself conclusive as against tiat ovjection. 1. Mexico has a bigber tariffupon sugar nau the Uniied States has, und they have no provision iu their laws tor rebate duties where imported articles are exported. 2. The conciusive answer is that it is only crude sugar whic: is admitted free under the treaty, and the difference between Cu- ban raw sugar and Mexican raw sugar is so great that « would not even require an expert to tell the difference Deiween them by the ‘feel’ alone if he was blind-foided.

By Telegraph to the Post-Dispatch. New YorK, January 23.—"*They are both edu- cated ventlemenand they view things from a high-toned standpoint,” said Inspector Burns last evening. He was speaking of Senore P. Fer- riana Viaanoa and Arturo Francisco Bueno, Bra- zilian gentlemen who bave been residing of late in this city. Yesterday morning a handsome, richly-dressed lady, witb clear, olive cheeks, flushed by the keen air, called at police head- quarters ana told Inspector Byrne that she was Senorita Pauline Durant, a Cuban. Two of her friends intended to fight a duel, she <ald, not on her account. Tbey bad quarreled about money and were going to Canada in the evening to fight the next morning. | Miss Durant went to Jefferson Market, where Justice White issued warrants for the arrest of Viaanna and Buevo. Later in the day they were arrested. Viaanna was at the Hotel Del Recreo, in Irving plate, Bueno resides at No. 159 Lexington ave- nue, where be was lured by information that a money order awaited him at the Post Office. Sane time ago Vidanna borrowed some money from Bueno, and received a request for payment, couched in terms which his lively sense of bonor could not Overlook. He lost no time in intimat- ing to Bueno that he had been insulted, aud de- manded the only reparation possible between entlemen. Friends were called in, and ata sol- einn conference it was proposed to settle the mat- ter with rds. To this Bueno objected as Vi- anna’s quick cye aud sivewy wrist were famous iu Rio de Janeiro. As the ehallenged party Bueno ASSERTED HIS RIGHT to the choice oi weapous aud terms. He named pistols at twenty-five paces. Although the affair was Kept very quiet it leaked out and ultimatey reached the Kuowledge of Senortia Durant, who (elt that Justice to tue community, her friends and herself, Uemanded that she suould prevent the mecting. When questioned by Luspector Byrues, both prisoners deciared tyat the only motive for the duel was Viaanna’s ludignation at the re- ceipt of the duuoing letter. evtrthe- ess it is suspected that ere 18 another reason. Vidanna is a short. stoutly built man about 35 years old. He nas been traveling in the United States for two years, observing the political, soeial and commercial life u the Nation, and reporting the results of his study to the Brazilian Government. His father, Dou Charles Anthony John Baptist Maria Via- anna, is a member of the Dom Pedro’s Parlia- mem, aod has been Mayor of Rio. He is very weullthy. Francisco Bueuo is’ teu years younger than his friend. He has been studying civil engineering for four year. His father has an immense coffee plantation, and a diamond quarry at San Paulo, a day's ride froin the Mrazuian capital. Young Bueno Is tall ana slight, dut of symmetrical aud athletic frame. Viaanna, who speaks excellent English, did most Of the talking at headquarters. He was ASKED THE NAMES OF HI8 SECONDS. In repiy hedrew a jeweled finger across his thront saylog, “Cut my head off if you like, but 1 will never tell the n:mes of my seconds.”’ “In what part of Canada did you intend to fight?” asked Inspector Byrunes. 1 do not Know. Our frends fixed all that. One of them bas gone already. He has the pis- tols. To-morrow he will look for us, but we will not come. It was not my wish, this pistol busi- vess, you know,” continued Seuor Viaanna, with a horrified shiver; I wished swords.

V., January 23.—Franz Joseph Fetmeky was put on trial heré to-day for the murder of Mrs. Froitzheim. The prisoner is a handsome Prussian youth, only 22 years old, and during the progress of the trial his young wile sat by his side ia court. At one time she be- came slightly hysterical, The sympathies of the spectators were evidently with her. On the evening of June last Andrew Froitzheim, a well-to-do laborer, returned from work to his home and found lying on the floor the mangled corpse of bis wife. The woman’s head had been beaten in, twenty-three cuts were found, six of which were necessarily fatal. Ne clew to the murderer was known. The next morning young Patmeky presented the bank book of Martiu Froitzheim, son of the murdered womaa, at the First Najional Bank of Albany. The de- sits were im the Auburn Savings Bank. Cash- er Coggswell had read of the murder in the morn- ing vapers, and had Petmeky arrested and taken pack to Auburn. In court this evenlug, witn his young wile’s hand holding his own, he told the story of the crime. Two years agohe came to Auburn and went to board with r. Froitzheim. He bad not been there loug before Mrs. Froitz- heim MADE LOVE TO HIM. and claimed that she could vot live without him. He finally left the city and married a pretiy Ger- man girl who had just arrived in this — and to whom he hadjbeen engaged. Shortly aft- erwards he received a letter from Mrs. Froitz- hein Degging him to return to Auburn to visit ber, and euciosing more than enough money to pay his passage. e She knew nothing of Dis young bride, so he conciuded to see his mistress for tue last tome. He met her at Syracuse and for three days, he claims, they lived tugether ata hotel under the name of Mr. and Mrs. Sawyer. Afterwards he called on her at ber house. This was June 1. 1883. The day of the murder, when he went to the house, he says she begucd him to hide himself iu an unused room up Stairs unit her husband had finished bis dinner; then, after Mr. Froitzueim went back to work, be could spend the afternoon with her, Her lover deciined and went away, but re- turoed alter her husband nad lett. Tue woman then renewed her protestations of undying affection, urging him to put ou her son's overcoat aud fly with ber to the West. He would not do this, telling her she was old enough to be his motuer and confessing that he was married. This euraged her andshe madly attacked him. He drew arevoiver to defend himself, but being a powerful woman she overpoWered him, too the pisiol, and pointing it at bim said, „Why should live If you are married to another? If we cannot live together 1 YOU SHALL DIE WITH ME. Jumping. to one side he seized u hatehet and struck her down,raining the blews upon her head. Leaving the body where it lay, he wok the first train to Albany, where he presenied the bank book found iu the pocket of the overeoat ne had taken. His arrest fotlowed. The case is stili on and is creating much excitement here. THE TEXAS CAPITAL, Galveston Harbor improvement—The Fence Cutting Question—Highwaymen. By Telegraph to the Post-Dispatch.

Cm AGO, January 23.—The police are in pos- session of additional facts as to the manner in which Amelia Olsen, the young seamstress whose dead body was found on the prairie on the out- skirts of the city a week ago, met her death. Sus. picton that a great crime had been committed was suspected from the outset, but very little definite could be stated. A young man named Thomas Sheehan, who was susp. cted of having some con- nection with the girl’s death, was the only arrest made up to yesterday. Late last night the police made six additional arrests. Two ofthe men are charged with actual murder but the names are not disclosed. Haekman, an Italian restaurant keeper, a woman and three other persons, all al- leged accessories, have been arrested.

Detective C. D. Benveit of this city to-day re ceived from his brother, Dr. S. B. Bennett, of Fairview, III., a sample of pork sansage which 18 infested with trichinm, and which has been work- ing great mischief near Fairview. A farmer named J. C. Ziitel bad a large number of hogs, some of which became afflicted with hog cholera, The disease was indicated,- as usual. by the phenomenon of a turned-up snout, which was con- spicuous on every porcine patient. lu a spirit of economy the farmer sold aul his other hogs, and kept those with the —— snouts for home consumption. They were mainly used for sausage manufacture, and in chopping and seasoning it, the various Zittel members of the family sampled it quite frequentiy. Tue result was that ina few days the entire tamily were prostrated by trichin- osis in a most violent form, and they may recover or they may not. If thev do recover they will do beiter than several cats hieb tasted the meat. The sample is sent here in or- der that some micro-photographic views of trichi- na in their most vigorous form may be obtained and photographers desiring to make specimeus of the kind can procure the material without cost.

The Old General Will Not Accept the Presidency. 1 f His Reasons Plainly Stated— The Candidates for Judge McCrary’s Seat—Aid for Indians —The Logan Boom—Washington Notes- By Telegraph to the Post-Disvaten. Wasurveron, D. C., January 23,--A friend of Gen. Sherman made a personal appeal to bim just before leaving for St. Louis last night to per- mit the use of his name for the Presidential nom- ination. In response he said ina most positive manner he could only reiterate what he had pre- viously uttered. If he was pominated by acclam- ation in the Convention and received the elector- al vote of every State in the Union he would still decline. He looked forward to bis remaining days for a life of comfort and freedom from care or worry of any kind. He thought it would bg supreme folly for him to be tempted by the bau- bie of the Presidency to enter the White House and have four years’ of strife, contention, irrita- tion and criticism to encounter. To accept the Presidency would necessitate his retiring from the army, and at the end of four years he would be remanded to private life, just like Grant, who was trying to earn a living in the precarious occu- pation of a broker in Wall street. Some people might envy him, but the inconstancy of the White House was one as remote as possible from satis- faction and comtort, and when be left it he would be very apt to leave it without credit or honor. The office of President, he saia, was surrounded with so much that was difficult, 80 much that was unpleasaut, so much that was un- satisfying, that betore long, instead of men of high character and statesmanship seeking for It, the trouble would be toinduce them to accept. “No,” said he, in conclusion, people may believe it or not, just as they please, but there is and can be no possibie contingency which would induce me to think for one moment of taking the office.” As to McCrary’s Successor. By Telegraph to the Post-Dispatch. WASHINGTON, January 23.—The aunouncement that the lowa members of Congress propose to urge the name of Congressman McCord as the successor to Judge McCrary, in the judicial dis- trict extending from Minnesota to Arkansas, does not disturb the frieuds of the other candi- dates. Senator McMillan’s friends point to the fact that McMillan is aman of much greater ex- perience on the bench, having been for years on the Supreme Bench of Minnesota, and at one time Chief Justice of the Supreme Court of that State, while Senator Cullom continues to press the name of bis friend, Judge Hallet, now a United States district judge in Colorado, who has had along judicial experience. McCord is an ex- celient man and good Jegisiator, but the general belief is that either ot the other candidates are more likely to succeed than McCord, by reason of their longer experience on the bench. The Logan Boom. By Telegraph to the Post-Dispatch. WASHINGTON, D. C., January 23.—The Hays boom for Postmaster at St. Louis renews the gos- sip about the Filley-Logan alliance, and the pros- pect of trouble in the Republican camp.

The belief that there is foundation in the fact for the report of the alliance between him and Logan Is strengthened by the fact that neither of them, sa far as is known bere, has made adirectdenial. The belief expressed here is that should Hays be reappointed there 1 * delegations from Missouri. to ait «Chicago convention, The fact the Logan boom appears to have died out does not figure much inthe question of his candidacy, as his friends were anxious the matter should be dropped until a date bearer the meeting of the convention.

HANNIBAL, Mo., January 23.—A sad case of betrayal and desertion has been brought to light in this city. About two weeks ago Miss Irvin, a handsome girl of new London, Mo., stopped at a hotel on Main street and registered as Mrs. Harriet Johnson of Jaeksonville, III. She was apparentiy in deep trouble. Ou Wednes- day sue sustained a severe fall, which hastened an event expected by close observers, and on Thursday morning she, who was not a wife, became a mother. The pabe, a beautiful boy. lived but eight hours, and the mother was violently attacked with puerperal fever. A physician was summoned who did all that medical aid could do to save her. The doctor took charge of the infant for the purpose of makin; a private post-mortem examination. This was all done quietly, but not seeret- ly, the Coroner having deen notified of what had taken place. However, rumors that an abortion had been committed soon Started and added interest tothe already highly sensational case. This morning Dr. J. C. Hearne, secretary ot the State Board of Health, dptermined to investigate the matter, and summoned from New London the gentleman at whose house the woman had been a guest until her condition could no longer be kept a secret. He will be one of the principal witnesses at the inquest by the Coroner’s jury, which takes place this afternoon, when, no doubt, the abortion the- ory will be disproved. Two of the most prominent citizens of Ralls County are charged with the paternity of the child. Its features strikingly resemdle the face of one of them. They both declare their innocence and one anxiously demands an investigation. Miss Irwin was thrown ivto convulsions by ex- citement last night, and she now lingers on the balauce between life and death. Sue has made no confession as to who is the father of her child, and it is doubtful now whether she will live to speak his name. — FED THE FLAMES. — — — i — A Stove Foundry. Troy, N.

Lindley, aud upon motion of Jude Madill, Mr. T. T. Gantt assumed the .duties of chairman. Mr. Gantt, in a voice broken by emotion, spoke of Mr. Glover in the following terms: “Brethren, I know not how it may be with you but whehihe grave closes over a man wuom 1 loved and respected, with whom I was intimate for twenty-five years, my heart is too full for the utterance of auy extended expression. I Knew the deceased longer thau most of you. Ot our common profession the head has been taken away. Hewas my senior in years by a few montbs, my superior in everything. My acquaint ance With him began nearly thirty-five years ago, At that time he was the leader of one of the strongest bars of this State—the bar of the sec- ond judicial circuit. His contemporaries at that time were such men as Carty Wells, Wiliam Campbell, Uriel Wright and James S. Green. He enjoyed the respect. he conciliated the regard of the bench and bar of that circuit. When he came to St. Louis in 1849 he rapidly advanced to the front rank of our bar. We ail know how he has vindicated that position. Why should I dilate upon the qualities which made him the objectof affection of all those his unlors, to whom he extended a helpiuvug and. He brought to the duties of his profession piercing logic, a wide discerning judzment, an ndustry which nothing could weary, and above all an integrity which nothing could bend and which left his character as spotiess as it was wneu he came into the world, Such was the man whdse memory you have assembled to honor. The tallest menarch of the forest lie’ low; the rarest cédar ot the mountain is prostrate. He possessed an integrity which scorned all crooked Ways; ascorn for wrong, a zeal for truth and a maguaminity which made his character most lov- Able. My brethren. it does not become me to an- ticipate what you willdo. It will be one of the principal objects of your meeting to take such steps as may be appropriate to his loss from amongst you. and securely to preserve such a memorial as will give those who come after us some proper estimate of the spotless record of Samuel T. Glover.“ At the conclusiou of Mr. Gantt's N pathetic speech, Judgé Samuel Breckenridge ‘hominated Mr. Frauk P. Blair, jr., for the position of secre- tary of the meeting. Mr. Blair was elected. Judge Madill announced that the @uneral would take place at 10’clock to-morrow afternoon at No. 2904 Gamble street,the late residence of Mr. Glover,and suggested that before the meeting adjourned some action shouid be taken looking to the attendance of the bar in a body at the funeral. He also moved that the chair appoint a committee of five, of whom the chair should be one, to draft a me- morial upon the life and career of Mr. Glover,and suggested that all remarks relative to the matter be deferred until ‘after the presentation of the memorial. The committee are to report at an adjourned meeting to be held at 2 o’clock ou Saturday week. The chair appointed the following gentlemen as the committee: Geo. A. Madill, John D. 8. Dryden. James J.

Some Keficctions by a Veteran Whe Has Some Figures to Submit. “That proposition to pay the city $150,000 for a perpetual water franchise sounds mighiy liberal, doesn’t it?” asked an old citizen this morning ot a reporter of this paper, It not only sounds that way, but itis both lib- eral and public spirited.” . “Well, I wouidn’t go to advocating any great big movement for the firm that makes it, if I were you, until some of the mystery is cleared away. It mignt prove to be merely an extraordl- narily good investment of that much money. Wait till you know who offers. it.“ Do you speak as a representative of the Water Department?” asked the reporter, who knew the speaker to have been connected with the water service of that department for many years, “No, I was dropped from the department on the ist of December, but I learned a thing or two dur- ing ali She years I was there.“ Maybe you know who the bidder ts, then?” . but I think 1 * .

At the very worst, the plan would yield a bigger return in ten years ov the-money Invested than any other thatcoula possibly be conceived of. white in twenty 8 the profits would be fabulous“ “But ou know that that is the firm making the proposition?”’ “No, but I’m telling you what mint be tne case. Or you can suppose for a moment thar jr js the Vulcan Iron Works. The Anheuser-Busch — 2 uses about 150,000,000 gallons annually at present, while the Vulcan. were it to rung all, steadily would use two hundred aud forty mij. lions. At present the Vulean operates six Cun— eron pumps, which, when the river is clear. driy la large part of the supply direct from the river, With all six pumps running, they still live to depend on the city for a portion of their supply, Well, I will venture to say—and Tam not tiking ldiv—that if the Vulcan were to run sleaciy i would in consume 8150000 worth of course if it had the kind of an arrangement that is proposed, it would dispense with the Cameron pumps, and draw ali supplies from the reservoir.” “Are these the pumps that Capt. Ford spoke of placing at the foot of Cnouteau avenue to keep the city reservoir filled ?”’ es; that was very funny. Captain Ford be- lieved that with two of those pumps located at the foot of Chouteau avenue, he could almost aes e city supplied. You can judge of the accuracy of his estimate when you reflect that with six of the pumps at work the Vuican can’t get enough water to run. The cuptain also sta yesterday that the harbor-boat pumps could supply six fire engines as hich up as Sixth street. Now, I put those pumps on that boat, and Ican assure you that neither of them can do any more than supply one engine at that distance. The captain Is too enthusiastic.” From toformation elsewhere obtaine1 it would appear the veteran of the water department is mistaken in his guess as to whence comes the $150,000 proposition. The firm which makes it is at present paying the city only $13,000 per au- num for water. THE TRAINING SCHOOL To Move to Fourth Street on February 1 Managers’ Meeting To-day.

He was not heard of for months. Hate & Norcross Was to $12,000a foot. One morning the broker found the dilapidated miner on his doorstep when he came down to business.

The speculative grain markets were slow and generally uninteresting duriug most of this fore- noon. Tradein the home market was confined mainly tothe loealcrowa, and was chiefly ina scalping way then, and as far as was learned the same was case in Chicago and in other markets. y few orders were held here by commission men and brokers, and they found it rather slow work to execute them. The feeling was rather more mixed in wheat than it has been for a few days past, when strength and confidence was shown. Europe had not responded to the advances on this side, and English cables this morning reported dull and heavy wheat markets and cargves 6d lower. This, however, had no appreciable effect, and with higher mar- Kets in Chicago and the East, light receipts at about all points and a cold wave sweeping down this way, prices in this market improved. Yet there was not the same steady and confident de- mand seen that has prevailed lately. Outside of shorts, and they only bought lightly, there was little desire shown to purchase. But, on the other band, there was no particular pressure to sell un. til late. it wasastand-off market pretty much all the time. As for corn, it was influenced almost entirely by wheat. Cable advices were not so discouraging as those on wheal, and a better tone was reported in spot, bur otherwise they were quiet to dull. Keceipts were small at Western points and helped to strengthen vajues, while other markets were higher. On thé noon call weakness had control of the market and afterwards there was a rush to seli, declines at other points and depress- advices developing a bearish feel- ung. The following telegram from Caruthers & Allen of New Vork, was a prime factor in weakening the market: “Later Liverpool cables depressed by large arrivals of California wheat, which is pressed for sale at less than we can lay down our posted wheat.” There was a sharp attack bere ou the market, directed almost entirely against May, so that prices broke rapidly and at close wheat was 4@\4c lower and corn ½e lower for that option. Every option in wheat received a share of snec- ulative aitention to-day, but May continued to wear the favorite’s colors. That mouth opened 5% % higher at $107, aud from this advanced ir- regularly until on the first call it sold at $1 07%, soon after declined to $1 07%, then fluctuated tor some time between $1 07% aud $1 0714,moved up to $1 074.@1 07%, but on (he noun call broke to $1 07% ain, and aiterwards declived almost steadily, closing at $1 00%, which was the lowest price of the forenoon and % below yesterday. Little was dope in the other months, February selling at &1 03% 10 $1 03%, and March at $1 045%, and each closiug With selters at 4c above yesterday. Cas wheat Was strong at Ice advance, the demand, both from city and outside millers, showing the same urgency, they eagerly purchasing. the small offerings. No. 2 red sold at $1 04@i 044% this, and $1 06 E. side. Corn futures were quiet most of the session, aud moderatey traded in. The near-by options showed must strength, and advance, but after the noon call, with weakness then prevalent, there was a desire shown to sell then that weakened them off in price. January sold at 7½ on first and at 495 on second call, but not worth over 4744 at close, winie February. which opened at aud sold off to 48 and March at 491, tu 4% Were nominal at avout 47% and 49 at close.

This is not to be wondered at when the quality of those placed upon sale was considered, the pro- portion of really good or decent cattle of any de- scription being exceedingly small. Another rea- son for the quietness of the/trade was the prices; salesmen, notwithstanding the iarge run and the general poor qualities offered, were asking very strong prices and in some instances more money was wanted than was asked the day before. As a result buyers were not disposed to take hold with any degree of freedom. Some little business was done in buichers stuff, and a few lots changed hands for interior shipment, but the movement is not whai it should have been, although there were plenty of buyers present.

The Wonders of Boulac. N. T. Tribune Interview with Stone Pacha. Do you think that Egypt has much wo fear from El Mabdi, supposing him to be successful? Man tor man, is not an Arabic Islamite as good as a Turkish one?“ “Ah, but Ismaili was only a Turk in name and inenergy. He was civilized in ideas. No one ecmprehended the value of the Museum at Bou- lac better than he. I tremble to think of the fate of that museum, unparalleled in the history of art and archeology, stored with the most pre- cious treasures which science has not yet learned to appreciate, and to comprehend in some in- s tances, if El Mahdi should get to Cairo. lu tnat giand colicction there are specimens of early Egyptian art before which schollars and critics would be dumfounded ; statues of wood that seem to breathe, so fuli are they of life; priceless ob- jects in glass winaows, royal jewels, glazed tiles, j bronze steel, tempered and elastic as a Toledo blade, and a nun- dred things that tell us of a remote past inconceivably great, and in many things greater than our present. El Mahdi has no enoice but to smash and shatter the wifle collection. Were he ever so enlightened personally, the horde that follows him is fanatically Mussulman in con— victions. All things that simulate life, all things that belong to false gods or were in any way con- nected with the devilish faiths of Ptah, and Amun and Khon, and Hathor and Neith, ana Taaut, ang with Isis and Osiris and Horus. must be annihilated. Thetrue believer has no option. You might as well ask the fire not to burn, the voleano not to destroy, the torrent not to deseend, the water not to drown, as to ask El Mahdi to re- spect the vestiges of the old faiths of the Phara- ohs.. To give the Soudan to El Mahdi is, in my opinion, to give him a point d’appui from which he cannot fall to obtain all Egypt. The burning of the Alexandrian library was the consequence of the first Mahometan invasion. The destruetion of Boulac bids fair to ve the result of the second.“ Fading Away. Washington Letter in the Clevelana Leader. Few people know that the original Declaration of Independence is kept in the library of the State Department. It is in a cherry case and under glass. But the doors are thrown Open all day long and strong rays of light are eating up its ink day by day. The constitution is Written on parchment. The text of itis in a hand as fine as copper-plate and the ink of this part can still be plainly read, The signatures, however, are writ- ten in a different ink, and they are very tast dis- appearing under the action of the light. The bold signature of John A. Hancock is faded almost entirely out. Only a J, o, h and an H remuins. Two lines of names are entirely re- moved from the paper; not a vestige of ink remains to show that names were ever there. Ben Franklin’s name is entirely gone. Roger Sherman’s name is fast fading. I could not find the name of Thomas Jefferson ana Elbridge Gerry has lost its last syllable. Robert Morris, Benjamin Rush, Charles Carroll and John Adams have been scoured off by the hight, and only eleven names out of the filty odd can be read without a microscope.

From the New York Tribane, During the Christmas holidays Senators Beck, Vance and Jackson wanted Senator Vestto go bunting with them on Currituck Sound, “Naw, hat's the use?” said he. “It’s ever so much more comfortaple here. What's the use of slop- ping around with your feet wet to your waist- band all day, and never shooting 4 single duck? You go ahead and let me be, and.I’ll eat at one siiting every canvas-back youshoot.” “Oho, you will, will you?” cried the trio; and off they went tor Currituck, while Vest stayed at home. Well, the hunters had a streak of “dumb luck.” They returned with about a hundred ducks, mostly canvas-backs; sixty snipe, two geese and two swans. Jackson killed most of them, his powers of silence glviug him an advantage over his com- rades. But Vest’s hair stood on end when he saw the display dod thought of what a job it would be to eat nearly a hundred ducks at one meal. And they say he has ever since been busy going be- hind the returns and trving to prove that the three Senators never shot a bird, butsat in the Currituck light-house playing backgammon while the keeper and his assistants were doing great slaughter on the meadows, MEN OF NOTE.

BARTHOLOMEW BINNS, the English public hangman, was arrested recently and fined twenty shillings and costs for trying to ride free on @ railroad in London. He was intoxicated at the time and thought he was a member of Parlia- ment. 0 EX-CHAMPION skater, John Engler of Jersey City, offers to skate either of the Paulsen broth- ers, the Norwegian champion skaters, for from $100 to $500, under the rules of the American Skaters’ Congress. The ex-champion is now filty- three years old. AMOS SHINKLE Is one of the millionaires of Cincinnati. He made his money in the coal bust ness. Amos, whois described as almost venera- ble,“ has just been sued, by his father, Peter Shinkle, to recover $18,000 for“ services rendered.“ The business is town talk in Cincinnati. THE miners at work lu the ore beds in Lower Macungic, Lehigh County, and along the East Penn Railroad, are paid from 65 to 75 cents per day, and the storekeepers refuse them monthly credit and demand cash payments for goods, Many families are starving to death. N. J. MorTON, of the Boston Globe, who is supposed to have lost his lifeinthe City of Col- umbus disaster, was one of the brightest journal- ists in New England.

THE little stump*f a girl marries the tall man, because she wants some one to | to. GOVERNOR CLEVELAND is not popular with the ladies of Albany, because he goes driving every day aud always alone. AT the German gynasium for giris in London the highest jump is four feet ten inches. The Indian clubs weigh four pounds. QUEEN VICTORIA has offered apartments at Hampion Court Palace to the widow of Capt. Mon- crief, who was recently killed in the Soudan. Miss OKEY, pupil and flancee of Fachmann, is delighting the London musical world by render- ing Chopin's music in a marvelous manner. THE English Churchman devotes a detailed article to the consideration of the writings of “Mr. Gail Hamilton.” .Leap year is but a few weeks old, and itis not probable that Miss Gail has bagged him yet. THE mother of Blanche Willis Howard, the authoress, was Eliza Ann Hudson, whose father went to Bangor, Me., halt a century ago and kept a tavern in that city. She was avery handsome woman, and her daughter is much like her in ap- pearance. MLLE. LITVINOFF, whose debut at the Theater Italian in Paris recently was “moderately suc- cessful,” has bought a “smart pair of Orloff trot- ters and a mansion in the Champs Elysees.“ To be more than moderately successful means a good deal in Paris. Mrs. WILLIAM HALE of New Haven, Conn., isa widow with $100,000. A week ago she was Miss Emma Robinson, aged 23 and poor, She married Hale, who was 60 years of age, and two days later he died, leaving her his property. The relatives of Mr. Hale are in no mood for levity. Mns. LELIA J. ROBINSON, the Massachusetts female lawyer, conducted a case before the Suf- folk County Probate Court on Tuesday for the first time since her admission to the bar about a year ago. Heretofore it has been her practice to dele- gate her court business to another attorney, after preparing the cases for trial. A WRITER in The Week (Toronto) has heard a quaint little story ofa boy of 18 who had been much with Miss Ellen Terry and to whom she has often chattered no doubt as to one of her own sons, one 9 and the other 11; but who is desperate- ly in fancy with her, The other day he senta most aggrieved note to her, because before his face she called him a young gentleman, but in speaking of him to a friend she called him a boy! MLLE. MARSY, the most successful of thenew Parisian actresses of the season, is thus raptur- ously done up in a French journal: “The debu- tante is 19 years ola, a blonde with black eyes, beautiful features and form, and, what is more, she has an elegant house in the Avenue Bugeaud, an elegant coupe, all the accessories necessary for her future two-fold career, and, above all, a wonderfdl mother, who has been training ber for years past, creating fine social relations for her and preparing the way to the position of comedl- enne a la mode, both as an actress and as a wom- an.” THE METROPOLITAN PRESS, What the Editors of the New York Journals Are Saying To-Day. By Telegraph to the Post · Dis patch. New YorRK, January 23—The WORLD says: It is reported that Gen.

The Times says: “Senator Logan, who believes that a steady prejudice or a boy’s impulse to hit the fellow who hit him s a good enough basis for legislation, advocated yesterday a policy of retaliation on France and Germany as the most effectual method of compelliug those countries to admit the integrity of he American hog. Senator Beck opposed retaliatory legislation, both on the ground of its uselessness and because he agreed with Senator Miller that Congress oucht to inquire into the subject before it takes action. This is the usual course in such cases, and the remarks of Messrs, Beck and Miller show that the value of the reasoning power in legisla- tion is still understood by some of our Senators. What a pity it is that Senator Logan has beep de- nied this useful gift!“ THE TRIBUNE. ' N The Tribune says; “Congress being Dem- ocratic, that is to say, pretty com- munistic, it is naturally deluged with bills to take away from railroad companies lands apd other property previously granted. When Mr. Huntington and other capitalists give rea- sons for opposing these measures, their presence Y excites the communists as the waving of a red flag does a mad bull. When they decline to appear they are said to treat Congress with contempt, and if they venture to observe that they have some rights, of which Congress cannot deprive them, the suggestion is termed in- tolerabiy insolent.”’ THE HERALD, The Herald says: A committee of the Nation- al Convention of Commercial Organizations, held in Washington, bas presented to the Senate a memoriai declaring that a uniform bankrupt law Is a commercial necessity, and recommending the adoption of the Lowell bill, with certain amend- ments. Now, let Congress take up this subjeet aud do something. There is no question that a national law of bankruptey is urgently needed. The Lowell bill has been more widely approved in its general features than any other measure proposed. It is the best basis for a bankrupt law yet presented to Congress. It ought tq be perfected as far as possible, and passed without further delay. ANSWERS TO CORRESPONDENTS, IGNORANCE—lLt is called the Talmud. HoRATIO— You are mistaken and your friend 18 right. R. L.

Where the Readers of the Post-Dispatch Find a Hearing. St. Louis, January 22, 1884. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch: Your editorial referring to Gov. Lowry’s sug- gestion to amend the law of the State of Missis- sippi to the effect that the plea of self-defense shall be excluded in cases where murder or as- sassination has been committed with concealed weapons, suggests to every thinking reader, that the Governor’s bead is level on the question. Only we might go much further, anaa law should be enacted which would prevent much harm, not on- ly in the State of Mississippi, butin every State of the Union. There can be no doubt but that the reckless use of the revolver in this great and 22 country has resumed proportions which gradually be- coming alarming, and the question occurs, are we a nation of goodand peace-loving citizens or are we a nation of rowdies? The revolver is the most cowardly weapon in existence. It leaves no chance for defense when the bearer of the hidden tool of murder,” as you n call it, has “the drop” on his File- titn, ok atour own city. While the Police Commissioners and their pals are fighting the battle of vindication in the courts, and while the police force is apparently. inactive from want of proper management, a_ set of thieves and murderous rowdies have taken possession of the city and by the liberal use of the revolver keep everybody in check, plunder when they feel like it, and laugh at the law, while their success creates rampant desire for imita- trons in the more timid faction of the profession, The small business man is standing behind his counter trembling for his days’ earnings, and for his life, which he may lose every moment fur tie sake of a few paltry dollars. Does any one mean to say thai such a state of things is consistent with the principle of a good city government? But not only among thieves and rowdies is the cowardly weapon cherishea. Your own file will show that occasionally the educated lawyer in open court sheots at his opponent for meeting his arguments, or at the Judge for ruling against him, or at an editor for saying something In the paper he does not like, and even in the sacred church it happens, that a rejected lover, sends his success- ful rival across tiie Styx with an ounce of lead right in trent of the altar. Iu the face of a multi- tude of homicides, through the revolver, is it not natural to ask, are wea civilized people, or only a lot ef cullure-varnisied savages? Now, what is the cause Ol a spirit existing lu us, as a nation, that creates such murderous disregard for human life? Ah, what isit? There's the rub! This is a question for a moralist, and would re- uire volumes to solve inteiligently, Dut as far as Can see, the primary cause Is: the national love and admiration for that infernal insirument called the revolver. We love the revolver; we can not do without it, Our young men can not go out for an evening lark without the cherished weapon in their bip-pocket, and the 5-year-old ureum cries tears of auguish if bis pants have no pisiol pock- et, were it only to conceal his Fourth of July pop, to shoot his bands and get the lock-jaw. es, to be honest with ourselves, the love for fire-arms and dime novels is responsible for the spirit of rowdyism in our you men. It was tolerated and uourished in youth and has become a part of the national character, We have stringent laws proportion of damage done by voisou in compari- son to the revolver. True, we also have laws auainst Currying pistols, but what du they amount to? Everybody curries it for self-defense and uses it in the offensive at the least provocation. There- fore let a law be enacted that makes the carrying of concealed Weupons, without lawful permission, a felony, punishabie with at least one year in the State prison. Such a law would enable the police to arrest many u thief on the vagrancy cianse,and on finding bis hidden tools of murder, may send him to the penitentiary.

L. 8. complains of old fogyism, permit me to call attention to the fact that the Mercan- tile Library was founded and its bunding erectea by our “old fogtes.” The bull was erected for the double purpose of furnishing suitable room for the library (then deu 4,000 volumes) and producing revenue $0 ue gradUally to pay for its cost. It has answered purposes very well. At the time of ig Seelen (1852-3) the cost ($140,000) was much larger wealth of the city, than, Thirty years bave p tion has fallen heir a 1 serve bg Ny +s en and enjoy them oroot buuding ot weir a sors * em U 2 tion to the auties president and ¢ Associ ’ a “ will do, ts tot e * be Butler and anybody else who might be induced to run with him, THE SUN.

A Street-Car Incident. Sr. Lovis, January 21, 1334. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch: While going west on a Franklin avenue caron Saturday evening, among the passengers I ob- served a young lady who is a regular patron of that line. A woman, who appeared to be intoxt- cated, entered the car and took a seat beside her, She then began to stare in a very rude manner at the young lady, and to insult her vy ridiculing what she wore, ete. This continued for abou ten blocks. Then, not wishing to notice her re marks, the lady took ont a newspaper which she attempted to read, whereat her persecutor laughed in adoud, vulgar tone, telling the otier passengers to took at her trying to read. At this point the victim folded ber paper, put it in her pocket, gathered up her parcels and asked the souductor to please let her off, which he did; and Jas I know she still had a distance to go, she was obliged, after paying her car fare, either io walk the rest of the way or hail anotuer car. Now, ail this time the couductor stood inthe back doct taking in the whole performance without saug a word. What is St. Louis coming to When 4 a woman cannot ride in a street-car without being subjected to gross Insults? WITNESS. The Worst Line. Sr. Louis, January 22, 188. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. There has been a great deal of “kicking” about some street car lines and “squeeze em up lines,” but never a word about the worst line in town, viz.; the Cass avenue. It makes me sigh to hear the complaints about such lines as the Olive, Washington avenne and Franklin avenue. I wish 1 lived where I could ride on them, Talk about seats—why, we are glad to be allowed to haag on the brake or anywhere else, so We can gel down town. I live on Jefferson aveuue. and 1 have often waited fifteen minutes for a car im the morning; the same way down towu ip the even- ing. The way they run cars is to bave a large car and a bob-tail about two or three feet apart, and if you miss that pair you are liable to [reeze to death waiting for another pair. I think this is mainly the fauit of the superintendent (ex-Police Commissioner Cleveland), I think the total num ber of cars is about seven or eight, judging by the time we have to wait for them. II you Kuow of any law to make this company ruu a car, say e- ery ten minutes, let me kuow, and Ill swear out a Warrant against them, A MEEK BUT PROTESTING SUFFERER. = J Our Engines Criticized. Sr. Louis, January 22, 1884, To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch: There is certainly no mistake in what I said of the dismantling of our fire engines in your issue of the 2istinst. I did not say anything about “lane terns” belag changed. It is the stationary orna mental stained-glass lamps which rest on the air chambers that have been removed, or “knocked off and never replaced,“ as some of the drivers say. Now if you will take a whirl around at the next big fire you will see that a creat inany of the engines are equipped with torches, which the en- gineers use. Look at the 10, 4, 15 aud others. The material the jackets are made of has nothing to do with the sieaming qualities of the engine, Whatever, as there is wood lagging between the jacket and boiler. As to Keeping the engines Uright and cleau, when did auybody see an en- gine thoroughly polished since the last fireinen’g dress parade. AN ADMIRER OF THE F.-D. Fire Alarm Boxes. Sr. Lovis, January 22, 1834, To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch: You will please give credit to the St. Louis Fire Department for their prompt response to alarm from box 154, and preventing a serious conflagra- tion. Five minutes from the time all engines were working. I would make a suggestion to have the alarm box placed where it used to be, In the first place there ismo placard where to get the key. Secoud, no light to see the box af vight and along way to go ior it. Aud in fact not a good place on atelegraph pole. Hoping you will calf the attention of some of our ovolflivials. Aud why not give a key to every good and houest citizen to preveut a delay. A CITIZEN * of the 13th Ward. To Test Your Popularity. From the Hartford Times. Wear a ragged coat. Contribute uiggardly to charity. Always get in somebouy’s way. Borrow your neighbor’s paper regularly. Never omit to say something vu every occa sion. Step into your friend’s office and sit with your feet on his desk. If you can do all of these things and retain your popularity you will be warrauted in tue further test of ruuniug tor office. Why and How Corn Pops. From the Cincinnati Commercial Gazette. When pop-corn is gradualiy heated, and so hot that the vil inside the Kerueis turns lo gas, tis gas cannot escape through the hull of the Kernels, but when the julerlor pressure gets stroug enough it bursts the grain, and the explosiva is so violent that it shatters it iu the most curious manner, aud in much less time than it takes to tell how it is done.

How a Chap From Chicago Made Money at the Stock Yards. A slick young man, who is now supposed to be from Chicago, visited the National Stock Yards yesterduy, and in the course of half an hour suc- ceeded in carrying away about $80, which previ- ously belonged to the gentiemen who do business in that locality. The young man, when he ar- rived, earried an ordinary satchel under his arm. He was well dressed, of plausible ap- ce, and a very smooth talker. He had soap to sell, soap that was mild enough to be used liberally in a baby’s first bath, and yet possessed of such a variety of properties that it could also be utilized to swab the decks of the greasiest sicambuat on the river with an et- fect that was both rapid and successful. He wis the only agent for the article inthe West. Fur- ther than this, and as au inducement to buy, he openly placed 610 bills in several of the packages, scattered them among hie stock and allowed the purenaser his chance of one of the “saw bucks” every time he Dougbt a cake of — The gentie- men who n about the yards are nothing if not H.“ — pitied the innecence of the young man, an knew at once he had no chance against their superior skill aud judgment. Some of themeven suggested that part of the money won be returned to him, but the majority vote was in favor of retaſulus all the spoils as a lesson to “sucker” not again to attempt to hoodwink such a kuowing gang. Well, the game began. The verdant young sOap-peddler had sev- eral $10 bills, and tossed the packages around jn a way 80 that it looked shameful to take his money . Wn.

The regular quarterly meeting of the Executive Committee of the Association of Amateur Oars- men was heid at the Gilsey House, N. V., last week. Ihe members present were H. W.

Tompkius of Greeubush, ., was disquaiifiead for rowing for money. A. A. Allison, Washington, D. C., an ex-professiona) ball piayer, applied for permission to row as an amateur which was refused. C. B. Maxwell of New- ark, N. J., Was charged with rowing against a professional. This was dismissed, as he had done sv without Knowiedge of tie status of the person referred to. Tue question of a course for this year’s regatta was discussed, andit was finally deciaed to leave the subject for decision at a spe- cial meeting to be called for that purpose. It is probabie that Boston will be seiected. A number of amendments tothe bylaws were brought for- ward by the Revision Committee, all of which were adopted. The most important one was re- specting junior definition, which pow reads that An Oarsivas is a juntor Wuo has never sculled in a sehlor race nor been a winner in a junior race, and a junior scuileris ope who never rowed ina senior scuiiler’s race bor won a junior scuiler’s race.

A new base-bull park will be enclosed next month for the amateur cluos. The park will be located at the corner of Russell and Missouri ave- nues, and will be of the same size as the Sports- man’s Park. It will be enclosed and maintained by a corporation to be kuowu as the St. Louis Amateur Sporting Association. First-ciass ama- teur clubs are requested to seud their address to C. Kargus, 1625 Svuth Broadway, or G. D. Nisch- witz, corner of Miller and South Broadway, so as to make arrangements for the season and assist an enterprise that ought to be patrovizee by the amateur clubs of ihe city. The new amateur as- sociation will probably take note of the new park and do something towards inaugurating its sea- son there. Another Deserter. By Telezraph to the Post-Dispatch.

Elks’ reception to the great English trage- dian, Mr. Henry Irving and Miss Ellen Terry, the leading lady of his company, takes place at the Elk Lodge and Ciub rooms this evening. The arrangements are all complete, the rooms hand- somely decorated, and a programme of entertaln- ment provided by the committee. About 500 In- vitations have been issued, and the affair taken all iu all promises to be an event of the season. Those who have seen Mr. Irving and Miss Terry on the stage this week, and testified by their hearty applause to their marvelous dramatic talent aud ability will be more than anxious to them socially, and do honor to their well- merited lame. The demand for invitations to the reception has been unusually large, and the committee in charge have been compelled to reject hundreds of applications from citizens whose presence on the occasion would reflect the nighest credit ou the affair. Besides the invitations to members, about 100 have been sent to the leading State and city officials and prominent citizens, nearly all of whom it is Known will be present. It is to be a full dress affair, The reception proper will begin at 9 o’clock, but Mr. Irving and Miss Terry are not expected until the conclusiun of the perform- ance at the Olympic. The reception committee will escort them tue club-rooms. The programme provided for the eveulng will be varied and of a higu order. An orchestra under tbe direction of Prof. Maddern will furnish the music for the evening. Miss Alice B. Hart of Tennessee, Miss Nellie Uhl Blachly and Miss Lizzie Matthews will sing solos. Mr. Wm.

Greeley, Dr. Leete, F. G. Niedringhaus, E. O. Stanard aad John T. Davis, put heir private business behind them, and, as respresentatives of the Commercial Club, devoted a couple of hours to a consideration of the public needs and how to provide for them. They visited the City Hall, where they met, by request, Col. Flad, Commissioner Wuitinan, Comptroller Adreon, Chief Sexton and Capt. Ford, of the Harbor Department. Fire aud water were the topics and, as the mission of the citizen’s delegation was to Obtain informatiou, the sub- jects were thoroughly discussed. Mr. Whitman was the cine! spokesman. He explained that bills were now pending, involving an expenditure of $82,000 which would provide aii of the business part of the cily witu a very satisiactory water service, and would increase the number of fire plugs so that three engines could pilav on eacn bDiock—iwo at every corner and oue inthe middle of the block. Tie contemplated addition of seven engines and en- gine-houses to the system would cost about $190,000, together with au annual expenditure for thelr support of $75,000. Mr. Wuitman called pu- ticfiar attention lo the exposed condition ol the immense mauulacluring, railroad aud warenouse Lergsts iD MIII Creek or Chouteau Valley by saying that the water Supply there was utierly luadequate to provide for any couflagration in that regiou, nor would it be ut all improyed by the extefisions now cou.empiated. In fact, he said, the wants are 80 great Wat six millions of dollars could be judi- civusly spent iu improving the system. Anvtier region which is but pourly supplied, is lying be- tween North Market and Lebaume streets, aud this should be corrected as s00n as possible. Chief Sexton endorsed and corroboraied the stutements of Mr. Whitman. He felt eertain that he would save enough in hose, by reason of not having to lay such jong lines, to pay im oue year the cust of lucreusing we Water supply aud pul- ing in additioual piugs. As to the Mill Oreek val- ley, he Was lu Constant dread Of a big fire tuere, because be knew that if it ouce got headway on him he could not get the water lo Make even a creditavie figut. In Chicago they can place tifieen engines on a block, while bere the Maximum uumver will be five. Comptrolier Aureon stated that he had allowed as much oi (ue revenue as could possibly be spared, lor improvements di the water service, aud next year Le hoped to pay $60,000 more of the water boud interest out of the general inter- est fuud than had been paid this year, thus giving the water fuud the benefit of that much more money. Wulle eapenses have lucreased steadily, tue revenue ol tue city to-day is about one million less tan it was belore the scheme aud charter was adopted, He hoped for a large increase trom the dramshop bili, but that was uncertain. Captain Ford said uf he could have a night crew on the har bor boat he could do excellent tire ser- vice, provided pipes were laid trum tie Levee to Fourth street. He feit confident that ue could iurpisi enough water at any point east of Fi street, ou a moment's notice, to supply Luree of the largest engines of tue departineut, and the advantage of the plau was that tue sup- piy was luexuaustibie, The steamboat men ae Aux tous to have Lhe boat equipped fur work at all h urs. Mr. Davis asked if the 678.000 per year can be provided in case the new engilie-houses are built and equipped, and the Comptroller promptly re sponded affirinatively.

An Interview With the English Actor—An Apt Comparison — Natural and Unnatural Methods—A Delusion Corrected—Pen Piet- ure of the Tragedian. . A figure shot out of the door of parlor 68 at the Southern yesterday, bearing a tray heaped with dishes, as a Post-DisPaTcu reporter entered the hallway leading to it, The figure belonged toa walter who was taking away Mr. Henry Irving’s breakfast things, and from some cause, whether from the fact simply that he was carrying the remains of a celebrated actor’s breakfast or be- cause be had been raked over for being slow, he was flurried and no more than got out of the door, when the tray broke loose from its moorings, and, deseribing two or tnree arustic revolutions, followed the dishes, and everything went down with a cash. This served as a sort of ice-breaker, opening introduction, 80 to speak, for the shrinking hy hat When he entered the room the actor was leisurely opening and sorting a heap’ of letters which jay upon a table in the window corner of the room. Although the afternoon was well advanced the actor had just finished his breakfast. Mr. Irving apparently turns night into day, for instead of retiring soon alter his evening performauces, he gath- ers a few choice friends around him, orders a reguiar supper and eats, talks and smokes for awhile. Alter this, he frequenily does his writing or reading until the clock q oints to afew figures ou the dial im the early morning. Viewed at ease and with opportunities for care- ful obseryation, Mr. Irving presents altogether A STRIKING APPEARANCE. Of course, bis irregular, iong aud strongly-marked face, his flowing bulr tinged with gray and parted in the middie, and his tall, rather gaunt figure wouid be noticeable anywhere,but he is more than peculiar, he is striking and would be picked but at Once as A mau entirely out of the common run ot men. His features, manners and cunver- sation devote a high order of intelligence. intel- leciuality and individuality. One peculiarity about Mr. Irving’s adress is his collar. He wears a umzu standing piece of linen, but instead of closely — ana sawing on his neck like that of the average slim, jit slopes out towards the chin andis broken down. It gives bis head the ap- pearance of 22 iu a linen socket. After speaking pleasantly to ibe reporter Mr. Irving remarked, 1 expect I have given the gentiemen of the ress here some trouble and waiting, but, you know, a man must Kive some time to his own affairs, to such things as making a living, answering letters, and others which demand attention now and then.” »The interviewers trouble you a good deal?” “Oh, uo, I can’t say they trouble me much, but 7 take time.“ r. irving here took the place of au interviewer and asked a good many questions about St. Louis, remarking that he bad always been deeply inter- ested in its bfsvory from early boyhood, Then he continued: 1 suppose your first question will be about my impressions of America, aud, to tell the truth, have beeu too busy 10 tell any more than I have told. As far as they „ however, I am charmed, My re- ception bas u most warm aud enthusiastic. 1 cannot say much about your theaters and theat- ricai matters, because have had no means of learning much about them, but, for your build- ings, 1 thing they are very handsome—splendid. You have greatly improved on us in the inciinua- tion of the floors and seats. There is a maguifi- cent eweep of people ſu front of the stage, and 4 — seems right in front of me.“ Vo you notice any great differences between the American and English publics?”’ “I cannot say that I do, because there are such great differeuces im audiences at the same place. A point is caught by one that is never noticed by avother. The beople here, however, are very eu- thusiastic and quick of perception. I must say this, nowever, for the Euglish public: it is gener- ous to foreign artists, and this characteristic is shared in full measure by Americans. They will both strain a polut to be Kind to au artist from abroad.“ “Mr. Irving, can you give some explanation of the principles of arton which you are specially working—of your own individual ideas of dra- inatic arte“ “My own ideaisto obtain perfect harmony in every detail.of a dramatic representation; to make every accessory and incident contribute its full share to the general effect. In dramatic ari, as in all art, we simply h dd a mirror up to nature, and to do so we must subordipate everything. If 1 succeed, or if auy ove else succeeds, in accom- pliishing this no special praise can be claimed, it is merely a matter of duty. To obtain periect naturaluess in scene and action is the proper aim inthe drama, and nothing which would mar this effect should be permitted. no prominence to Ay detail, no matter how good. The aim should be to give a tull ronuuded enaraeter and natural scene aud ac- tion. 1 do not believe iv recitation but imperson- ation. Sbakespeare is always natural. he ex- pression of passion or any strong emotion is per- fectly Cousistent with this, because they are at- ural aud should receive natural treatment. One of my ideas is to pay the same attention to the mounting and accessories of the legitimate drama as we do to many of our very modern plays. Ju- tortunateiy we lave got into the way of attendius to one character of a play of Shaks- peare and to the play proper, and of allowing everything else to take care of itself. 1 do not believe lu that, but 1 am inclined to thiuk u comes more from thoughtlessuess than selfishness or any other motive, aud the teudeucy now is in the right direction.” “Then you do not believe in the talk about the degeneracy of the stage and that its tendencies are for the worse?’ “No, Ido not. Many of the plays of our old- time playwrights are absurd and laughable. We have some splendid modern pave aud the tendeu- cy in both plays and acting i consider to be iu the direciiou of waturainess as opposed torant and recitation. I think the prospect bright for the altaininent of the true goal of the drama. I cannot better illustrate what I mean than by reference to two great paintings. There is a painting by David of Napoleon Crossing the Alps, which represents Napoleon as a fine, soldieriy man, in gorgeous military dress, mouut- ed on a splendid, prancing charger. The man and horse are on the summit of a peak, and the man pointin towards the oth- er side. Delaroche painted the same scene, but in his piciure a small, low-browed man with a determived cxpression, and witb a cloak wrapped closely about uim. is Mounted on 4 mule and is riding along a narrow mountain path, This fairly illustrates good and bad in drainatic art. One is unnatural aud the other true to nature. The great change in the drama of late years has been the disappearance of siock com- panies and the substitution Of traveling compa- nies, The railroads have done this, and the change will be permanent, but I believe as good results can be obtained from the one as the other. Of course expense cuts a large figure now. In mountiug my own plays away from home I have to do the best lcanu with the materials at hand.“ “It is currently believed that you carry a large part of vour scenery with you, isn’t it true?” “That is a current and popular delusion. Icar- ry very little scenery With ine. or instance, in Monday night’s performance there was only one cloth of my own used, and in tne “Merchant of Venice,” a few pieces only. Gen- erally a hanging, pieces of tapestry, or things of that kiud constitute the sum totai of my property. Ot course, 1 overiook tue arrange- ment of the stage, aud try tO make it as harmou— ious as possible.“ Mr. Irving spoke of several American actors whom be had seen, and mentioned Edwin Booth ‘as one of the great actors and Joseph Jefferson as the best comedian be bad ever seeu. In speaking avout the West Mr. Irving said thatthe maguit- cent pivgress of the cities gave him an impres- gion of the peuple as ready to recoguize and seize at once upon anything good that came in Weir way. person or 1 * NEW STREET KAILNKO AD.

From the London Spectator. The well-to-do Englishwoman, whether maid, matron, or widow, is, if in good aver- situated person, probably much happier than any other kind of person either is or has been. She is full of quiet life. She bas work, either with her studies, her children or her household, just sufficient to take away the sense of uselexs- ness, and not sufficient to overtask either her strength or her nerves, She has no great dangers to fear, either for herself or others; no extreme changes to dread; nothing to cali into existence that poisonous sense of, terror which, in many countries and classes, can never have been to- tally extirpated. She is safe in der drawing-room as if she were in heaven; so safe that she bas ceased to regard safety as a pressing condition of happiness, the im- portance of which is, indeed, Known only to those who have lived in unsafe regions of the world, such as Mexico or Connaucht. She has good food in plenty; her dr ss never offends her amour-propre or disturbs her sense of dignity; she has as much change as she wishes, and, unless her House is very re- mote from the baunts of men, a sufficiency of varied seciety, composed of men and women whom she likes and understands. Of affection if sbe is not very uofortunate, she has plenty. Her husband loves her, her daughters worship her, her sons depend oa her, her friends are devoted to her. The father, especially in old age, does not gain haif from his children that the mother does; nor is he halt so close to them. He may be respected and cared for, but the mother is loved, aud followed witha uite separate observance, arising partly rom affection and partly froma more per- fectintimacy. Constantiy households are seen in which the relation of the daughters to the mother, and often, though in a less degree, of the sons, is something quite beau- tiful, so much oi genuine feeling, yet so lit- tle of the tvranny of feeling is there in it. The sheltering of women is to many mena constant pre-occupation, and the work is performed with a silent care and perfectness often wanting in regard to the otner duties of life. Of friends, the happy woman has enough. We will not attempt to decide whether men or women arethe more eapa- bie of friendship, but we suspect that the opular opinion on this head has very littie to justify it, that women are as honest in friendship as men, and sorrow for their friends as keenly, and that the only difference springs from comparative freedom, Steadfastness in friendship is oniy for the free, and women are the less free of the two sexes. However that may be, women certainly benefit by their friend- ships more than men. ‘They see their friends oftener, enjoy more converse with them, have more time for letter-writing, and can eultivate friendship better in a full room. Thes take altogether more trouble about it, and find themselves constantly padded in friends when men would be comparatively alone, The widower, though it is not the custom to think so, is far more lonely than the widow. Badger City. From the Los Angeies Express. Every one knows badgers, their size and shape, holes and habits, but few know where a Badger City exists. On the Santa Gertrudes rancho, on an old unsettled road near the center of the rancho and near an old Mexican bakery, exists the city the name of which heads this item. The city covers several acres of land and the holes are dug with great regularity and are equi- distant from each other. In all there are probably 500 or 600 holes, or badger homes, and although most of the surrounding land is cultivated to grain, this tract has been so difficult to subdue that it has never been used for any purpose. It is very uncertain how many badgers live here, but there must be avery large number. In the center of this settlement, or nearly so, isa citadel, round, about 150 feet in diameier and raised two feet above the surroundihg holes, per- fectly level, and containing thirty badger- houses. The road is so little used that few ple except the neighbors have seen it, ut there who have consider it unique and unusual, ‘To any one who is in the neighbor- hood this peculiar settlement is worthy of a visit, Boy-Like.

LAX Louis D’ENNEMARE, Ar Sorssons.—My dear Abbe: My marriage with vour cousin is broken off, and broken off in the most absurd way, on account of a stupid joke which I almost involuntarily played on my betrothed. I turn to you, my old comrade, in my dis- tress, for you can set me right again and I will thank you for it as long as I live. You know Gilberte, or rather you think you know her; but does one ever know a woman? All their opinions, their beliefs, their ideas are so many fresh surprises. They are full of shifts and subterfuges, contra- dictions and inconsistencies and infatuations aoe seem final, and are set aside for a trifle. I need not tell you that your cousin is re- ligious to excess, having been educated by the Nuns at Nancy. You know that better than I do. But what you probably don't know is, that she is as extreme in everything eise as she is in iety. Her imagination takes wing like a leat in awhirling inthe wind; and never was a woman, or rather a young girl, more easily pleased or plagued, as sudden in her friendships as in her aversions, and as fickle; and as pretty—as you know; and more fascinating than pen can say—and than you will ever know. Very well,then,we were engaged. I adored her as Ladore her now. She seemed to love me. One evening I received a telegram, sum- moning me to Cologne for a consultation, perhaps to be followed by an important and difficult operation. Asl was to start next morning, I hurried off to take leave of Gil- berte, and to explain why I could not dine with my future parents-in-law on Wednes- day, but only on Friday, the day of my re- turn. Oh! beware of Fridays, I assure you they are fatal. When Lspoke of my departure I saw a tear in her eyes; but when I announced my speedy return, she clapped her hands and cried: “How delightful. You can bring me home something; a mere trifle, a simple keepsake; but a keepsake chosen 1 for me. Lou must guess what will please mé most, do you hear? Let us see how much imagination you have.” She meditated for a few seconds, then add- ed: I forbid you to spend more than 25 franca I want to be pleased by your inten- tion—your intention, sir, not by your extrav- aganee.”” Then, after another pause, she said in a low tone, her eyes cast down: 11 it costs you nothing inthe way of money, and if it’s very ingenious, very dainty, I will —I Will kiss zou!“ * = — * — I reached Cologne next day. I was sent for in consequence of a fearful accident which had reduceda whole family to despair. An amputation was imperative. They gave me a room in the house, almost made a pris- oner of me; I saw no one but people in teass, deafening me with their entreaties; I oper- ated on a dying man who came near expiring under my hands; lspent two nights with him; then, when 1 saw a chance of his recov- ery, | was driven to the railway station. When there I found I had made a mistake; I had an hour to wait. I wandered through the neighboring streets, thinking of my patient, when some one addressed nie. 1 do not kuow German; he did not know French; but tinaliy 1 made out that he was offering to sell me some relics. The thought of Gilberte flashed through my mind; I re- membered her fanatic devotion. Here was my present! I followed the man into a shop for the sale of religious objects, and I se- lected ‘‘a little piece of bone from one of the eleven thousand virgius.“ : The pretended erlic was contained ina delicious little antique silver box, which de- termined my choice. I put the thing in my pocket and jumped into my carriage. On reaching home I wanted to examine my purchase anew. 1 took it out, The box was open, therelic was gone! In vain I searched my pocket, turned it inside out; the tiny bone, no bigger than half a pin’s length, had vanished. As yon know, my dear Abbe, I have but a lukewarm faith. You have sufficient friend- ship aud greatness of soul to tolerate my lack of fervor, and to leave me free, waitin for future developments, as you say; but am absolutely incredulous, as to the goods of these secend-hand dealers in religious relics; and you share my ungratified doubts in this respect. Accordingly, the loss of this fragment of some Aheep’s carcass, did not distress me, and I readly procured a siin- ilar splinter which I carefully inclosed in my silver box. And I went to call on my betrothed. As soon as she saw me she rushed to me, eager and siniling,. : 1 “What have you brought me? I pretended | had forgotten her commis- sion; she would not believe me. let her beg and entreat;and, when I saw that she was nearly wild with curiosity, I offered ber the reliquary. She was overcome with de- light. A relie! oh! a relic! and she kissed the box fondiy. I felt ashamed of my fraud. But a suspicion fluttered through her brain, and instantly became a_ horrible dread; aud, gazing straight into my eyes, she asked: ve “Are you sure it is genuine? „Absolutely 4 “How can you be?“ I was ciught. To confess that I bought the bone of an itinerant peddler, meant ruin. What could say?

I said that I gave the seXton fifty franes to let me visit the church wyself;the shrine was undergoing repairs, but I had hit on the bour when the workmen and the priests were at dinner, taking out a panel, which I afterward care- ully replaced, I managed to extract a tiny xed from 88 of others.

But she did not waste a thought on tbat. he heard me, trembling with ecstasy. She whispered: “‘How I love you!” and fell into my arms, Notice this: I had committed a sacrilege or her sake. I had stolen; I had violated a church; violated a sbrine; violated and stolen sacred relics. She adored me for it; thought me loving, perfect, divine. Such is 8 my dear abbe, such are all woman- d. g For two months I was the most charming of lovers. She arranged a sort of magnifi- cent chapel in her room to hold that splinter of a mutton pone, which, she thought, made me achieve that divine crime of love; and she knelt before it night and morning. had sworn her to secrecy. for fear, as 1 told her, I might be arrested, condemned, and carried to Germany.- She kept her promise. But early in ti summer an insane desire to see the scene of my exploit took sion of her. She coaxed her father so long and:to such good effect (without acknowledg- ing her secret reason), that he took her to Cologne, concealing the trip from me at his daughter's request. I need not tell you that I had not seen the inside of the cathedral. 1 don’t know where the tomb (if there is a tomb) of the eleven thousand virgins stands. It seems that this sepulchre is inaccessible, alas! A week later I received a brief epistle breaking off our engagement; also an ex- pianatory letter from the father, her tardy confidant. On seeing the shrine she suddenly under- stood my fraud, my deceit, and at the same time my reale innocence. On asking the keeper of the relics if any theft had been committed, the man burst out laughing and proved the impossibility of such a thing. But from the moment that she learned I had not broken into a sacred place and plunged my profane hand into the midst of venerable remains, I was no longer worthy of my fair betrothed. I was forbidden to enter the house. In vain 1 prayed and ee ee could soften the heart of my lovely saint. I fell ill from grief, Now, last week her cousin, who is also yours, Mme, d’Arville, sent for me. Hear the conditions of my pardon.

From the Wall Street News, A lawyer across the Hudson received a call the other day from a man who wanted to be- gin a suit againstarailroad company. He claimed to have been run over by a hand-car, but close questioning revealed the fact that the car was in possession of a gang of boys. I'm afraid we could not hold the com- pany responsible,“ said the lawyer when he had all the particulars. 1 „But the company owns the track and the hand- car.“ persisted the man. “Yes, but that won’t do you any good. Are you anxious for a suit?” “Well, I've rather set my heart on one. a see. Did vou go to war?” No.“ “Have you any relatives tbere?“ Thad a brother living in Virginia when the war broke out.”’ “Good! He owned a farm, and the Union troops occupied it and damaged him to the extent of 815,000. We consequently file a claim against the government for that sum and interest. Don't say another word about suing a railroad company—we’ ve got a better thing.“ „But my brother isin’t dead!“ Then go and kill him at once! We've got a dead sure thing on Uncle Sam, and trifles must not be allowed to stand in the way. Please kill him so as to be back by 4 o’clock to swear to the claim.” The Catfish of the Washoe. From the Virginia (Nev.) Enterprise. The catfish of the Washoe Lake having all buried themselves in the mud in the bottom, therein holding themselves in a semi-dormant state, refusing to heed the. beguilements of the angler, some miners the other day con- cluded to play them a trick. The men, at the suggestion of one of their number, who said that in winter the catfish always remained buried in the mud until they heard the first thunder in the spring, exploded a giant- powder cartridge on the shore. Sure enough, the fish — . they had heard it thunder, and swarmed to the sur- face. The men were delighted with the suc- cess of their experiment, and were about preparing their hooks. and lines when a new movement among the fish attracted their at- tention. As though some signal had been given or word passed, every catfish, great and small, turned toward the Sierras, stuck his head out of the water an inch or two, took a long look, then disappeared beneath the waters of the lake—went down into the mud again. The miners now fired half a dozen cartridges —all they had with them—at various points around the ake. but not a fish showed itself. They had all taken a good squage look at the Sierra Nevada range, and had seen that it was still white with snow. The Matches Made in Sweden, From the Pall Mall Gazette. Every one has seen the Swedish matches and wondered at the quaint inscription on the top of the box: Tandstickor, tanda ac- ten svafvel och fosfor.” Few, however, are there who, when traveling in Sweden in the home of the tandstickors leave the fjords, rocks and firs for a day and trace the match back to its source. And yetit would more than repay a day's sojourn at Jonkoping to visit the factory whence proceeds not asmall part of the light of the world. The latest novelty, only at work about a month, is an enormous engine, which daily, produces 1,000,000 boxes of Swedish matches, This wonderful machine receives the raw material, namely, blocks of wood, at one end, and after a while gives up at the Other the matches neatly arranged in their boxes, ready to be we, ee to the uttermost ends of the world. The wood which in the course of last summer was brought over to Jonko- ping to be made into matehes filled thirty steamers and eight sai.ing vessels. Fall of Man.

PITTSBURG LANDING. Ita Appearance Twenty-Ohe Yoars Aft. ' er the Great Battle. Cor. of Peoria (IIL) Call. The old fort is unrecognizable. Immense cotton wood trees have grown up on the river bank, and, while the earthworks along the river are plainly visible, a large cotton-field has obliterated the rest of the fort. From Fort Henry to Pittsburg Landing the country has changed very little. Savannah, the place where Gen. Grant had his head- quarters before the battle, has become Se a thriving ttle town, and quite a large ness is done there. lt was by the early light of the morning of Thursday, April 5, that I caught sight of the tall flag-staffin the cemetery at Pitts- burg Landing. The staff stands on the spot, almost, where the old log hospital once stood, and around it are ranged in regimen- tal ogee the remains of the. soldiers who were killedin the battles and skirmishes and who died in the hospitals between Fort Henry and Florence, Ala. 1 was met at the landing by the superinten- dent of the cemetery, Captain L. S. Doolit- tle, a yeteran of the Ninety-sixth Lilinois In- fantry. After a short stay at nis beautiful home, just outside the cemetery walls, I took a stroll through the cemetery. After enter- ing through the massive iron gate passing the immense cannon set on end, 1s in the midst of fallen heroes. The first grave is that of Henry Burke, of Ohio, better known as the “Drummer-boy of Shiloh.” On the 30th day of May of each year the Union people from far and near assemble here to the number of many thousands to decorate the graves. Do you wonder when I tell you that on these occasions the little hero’s grave is fairly smothered in flowers? A little further on are two iron slabs, one of which contains these lines: “The muffled drum’s sad roll has beat The soldiers’ last tattoo: No more on life’s parade shall meet The brave aud fallen few.” The other slab contains this legend: “Es tablished 1866. Interments 3590 Known 1229. Unknown 2361.” All were Union sol- diers, except four women, who lie buried under some beautiful evergreens on the out- side line of graves. These heroes lost their lives by disease while attending the wound- ed after the battle, but for some reason the War Department has refused to put head- stones over their graves. Beautiful as this cemetery is by daylight it has a solemnly weird look by night. he dark green grass and evergreens contrasted with the innumerable little white head- stones, are calculated to make theyisitor, if he is superstitious, think of sp®cters and ghosts. One of the boats on this river has a mate, a large, powerful man, whom neither threats nor entreaties can induce to go ashore here at night. He trembiingly relates how one dark night he saw several soldiers in full uuiform come aboard the boat and disappear over the bow. He also strungiy claims to have seen whole regiments of spirit soldiers drill on the brink ot the bluff, and to have heard the hollow, solemn voices of the offi- cers giving commands. The Confederate dead remain where they were buried. Naturally enough, the first I wished ta see was my own old camping-ground (that of the Fourteenth Iilinois Infantry), and I found it without much trouble, for all the old camps are very easily found. There, in front of our old quarters, is the old cotton held where we drilled and met on dress parade. Still plainly to be seen was our company well, now still two feet deep. Plainly visible are the circles of our Sibley tents, with here and therea tent-pin remaining. The most remarkable relic of the post is a tin-cup I picked up in our company quarters. Although badly rusted, it is still plaigly an army tin-cup, and bears on the bottom the initials J. L. A.” rudely scratched on witha pointed instru- ment. 1t no doubt belonged to Comrade John L. Alves of my company, who can have the relicif he is still alive. I very readily foygd the camps of Logan’s, Preniiss’ and & not been piowed up the field is still littered with the slowly decaying debris of the army. The old field where Gen. Hurlburt's head. quarters were located was especially fami- artome. On account of a defective titie it has no owner aud has not been plowed u since the battie, and the tent squares an circles, cess-polls, wells and bake-ovens are plainly visible, while innumerable tent pins, camp ketties, leather straps, cartridge boxes, canteens, shoes, beef bones, harness, cam stoves and bayonets cover the ground. found several well preserved fragments of army clothing, a cavairy sword and several good cartridge-box flabs. The field where Grant reviewed the troops some weeks be- fore the battle is now in cultivation and is owned by Mr. Thomas Walker, who has lived there, grown well off and raised a large family of bright children since the battle. Not far from Mr. Walker’s plantation stands the stumpof the tree under which General Albert Sidney Johnson died. Some one has pianted an evergreen there to mark the spot. Near the site of the old Shiloh Church I was shown one ef the most remarkable land- marks of this historic field, Itis the grave of a Confederate major whom his comrades buried under a beautiful oak tree, then about eighteen inches in diameter. A round piace was cut smooth on the face gf the tree, and engraved was the inscription, T. B. Mon- roe, C. S. A., killed April 6, 1862.“ The tree. has since then grown in thickness fully six inches, and the bark has swelled out and healed up so as to leave only an aperture of about seven inches in diameter through which the inscription is plainly visible. Immense amounts of lead and iron are de- ing gathered on the field.. One merchant last year shipped ovet 3,000 pounds of old bullets, and the farmers putina great deal of time gathering lead. One day, before my arrival, sume children found an unexploded shell which they threw into a pile of burn- ing brush. While away at dinner the sheil exploded, after being buried twenty-one years. In my search for relics I avoided un- exploded sheils as I would the pest. The large trees that were so badly scarred by shot and shell still bear the marks ver plainly, but the small saplings were killed and a new growth has appeared in- stead. I brought back some fine pieces of oak wood, each containing a minie ball, but they are so deeply imbedded in the trees that they are hard to get out. : The road cut into the bluff by Buell’s forces oa Sunday night is still in good shape, although never used, Even the in- dentations made by the steamers in landing are plainly visible in the tough claybank. Near the tup of the hill, on the Buell road, stand a number of splendid beach trees, cut all over with the names of soldiers. I plainly read the following: O. F. Smith, Company D, Twenty-fourth Missouri Infantry, 1862; A. J. Plummer, T. Donahoe, W. P. Dean, Sixth Louisiana, 1861.“ The old Shiloh Church was torn down two years ago, and a neat frame ckurcn built in its place. It is needless to say that relic hunters have carried off every vestige of the old one. The new church is owned by the Southern M. E. Chureh, but to keep matters even the old (Northern) Methodists have erected a church within haifa mile of the former. I quatfed a long, strong draught from the old Shiloh spring, and sitting on a stump near its brink tried to discern in the ground the various deeply beaten paths that once led off to the numerous camps, and to hear the ſoot-falls of the soldiers coming for water, but the paths are obliterated, a only sound which g my ear was the creaking of an approaching cotton-wagon on its way to the landing.
