THE GOOD WORK OF TRER PLANTING. Preparations have been made by the District ¥ joners tor the planting of 3,000 shale trees on the streets and avenues of this Distric: the present season. The parking commission bave commenced the werk on Missouri ayenue ©f opening the holes for these trees, and will continue the same during the dry season, leav ing the other portion of planting until the wet feason sets in, as every good nurseryman and cultivator of the soil knows that it is not good to disturb the ground while it is in a very moist state. HAPYY THOUGRT. Many complaints have been made for some time past about the dingy appearance ef the signs on the corners of streets with names of streets and avenues, rendering it almost im- exible for strangers in the city to find out dif- ferent localities, ly at night. Lieat. Hoxie has addressed a commanication to the District Commissioners upon this subject, in which he states that the convenience of resi- depts and strangers could be by some uniform method of identifying the various streets and avenues, and suggesis that some ac- tion be taken in the premises. The commissioners have determined to ad- vertise for bids and have a upiform system of bumbers, letters and names, which are to be placed upon the street lamps on the corners, and Bpon corner buiidings when there are no lamps. ee Starrep ny A Frrenp.—Yesterday after- noon, Mr. Joseph A. Mattingly, the we saloon, ai about 5 o’clock in the afternoon, Mr. ‘with a friend entered the saloon, and Matti iy seeing Irving invited him to join him in a drin! or cigar. Irving approached as was supposed to accept the invitation, but suddenly turned and struck Mattingly on’ the right breast, and he felt immediately that he was stabbed. Mr. Mattirgty immediately jumped the counter as Irving seemed dt: to follow up the attack, but was prevented by persons present. The wounded mau was taken to Gilman’s drag store and subsequently to the Metropolitan hotel, where Dr. Bradford was called in, and it wag tound that the weapon, a dirk knife, had entered the left breast about one inch and a half above the pippie, and had it gone a littie deeper would have caused instant death. Mr. M. and his frends are at loss to know why the attempt against bis life was made, as nothing bad occurred to lead up to it. Detectives MeDe vitt and Coombs arrested Irving and took bim ¢ ice heaceuarters. He presented the ¢ of a mau who had been under the and said he could ent for the attack on Mattingly, who Was one of bis best friends. He gave bonds last 2,000 for bis appearance at the Police ning, but when the case was Mr. Evans, J a@ bench war- rent Ss nee for his arrest, which was ordered. ‘The condition of Mr. Mattingly had so mach improved this morning that his iriends hope he Will be able to be out in a short time. Mesers. Coomes and MeDevitt brought Mr. Irving into court at noon, and he renewed his bonds for appearance from day to-day for a bearing. : AN INTERESTING Savtnos Bark Case.— Yesterday, in the Equity Court, the case of W. 8. Huntington’s administrators against The N tienal Savings Bank, wassrgned betore Judg. Rumphreys. Judge Paschal appeared for plain- uf, and Mr. W. 8. Cox, for defendant. The plaintifie claim that Huntington was one of the corporaters of the bank under the charter ot May 2ith, 1570, and set forth the provisions of the charter, that Huntington, with the other corperators, executed a bond in the sum of $210,000, and deposited the same witb the clerk of the court. They charge that no capital patd mm except enough to start business w: vanced, which advance was shared equally; that it has done a large business for nearly four years: bas never sustained any considerable iesees, has never issued stock, and, therefore, all ite profits and the present value of itscapttal stock pelong to the sixteen corporators and that its value is now over half 8 million dollars. ‘They further charge that Huntington never re- ceived im dividends more than $300, and that the other corporators have received larger dividends, and they Lave given out that all the rights of Huntington survive to them,and to give expression of their views since the death of H., they have adopted @ by-law “that upon the death of any member his successor, if any, is to be chosen by the surviving members who shall enter into bende,” &c. They state that they have exhansted ail reasonable means of settling the matter, have offered to relinquish H.'s in_ terest to the bank or to any person it might pame; that they have proposed to sel] to Jonn Van Kiswick, who agreed to purchase if def ant would admit his rights, which pr+ position they dallied over, and finally indefinitely post- pned. The bank claimed that the interest of Hant- ington at bis death reverted to them. The argpments were concluded, and the case is held under advisement. 38 K&L gasp FROM CrsTODY 1a.—An Associated Press dis- rom Philadelphia last night says:—“in mary lest James K. Moore and E. 0.

S. King, and second com- mander Edward Dunn (sergeant major of the marine corps.) After forming line, the two Encawpments paraded through several straets and then proceeded to the Odd Fellows’ hall, on ith street, where, after an examination of the building, a visit was made to Columbian En- campment, No. 1, and addresses were delivered by the presiding officer (Dr. J. E. Mason) and other members, to which several of the visitors responded. After this was over, the line was reformed, and leaving the hall, at 10 p. m., the Patriarchs and their friends, to the number of 150, sat down to a bountiful collation at the Metropolitan hotel. Mr. T. W. Fowler, Past Grand Master, 1. O. O. F., briefly addressed the visiting brethren, and declared the “tent opened for collation.” ‘There was no other speaking or toasts, and the board was tree from all liquors or wines. After the dining room was cleared a large number proceeded to the reeidence of Thomas W.

Tax Ovation TO Comrany D 1x Syraccez, Judging trom the published reports in the Syra. cute, N. Y., papers, the members of company D, Washington Le al Infantry, were treated in the most Lospitable manner by their hosts, the Sumner corps of that city. Upon the arrival of the Washington boys in Syracuse they were re- ceived by & committee of the Sumner corps, d after torming in line, marched to the ar- mory of that organization. The Daily Courier gusbingly aye :—“The reception was a perfect Ovation. "It is no exaggeration to aay that twen- ty-five thousand people turned out to witness twe procession, and give greeting to the wel- come guests. Everywhere, as far as the eye could see, was a perfect sea of heads. The build- ings on every hand were brilliantly illuminated, hile the sky was fairly alive with reckets and Roman candles.” Arriving at the armory, they were welcomed in a brie! be by Rev. Dr. Eddy, which war responded to by Uol. Fiem- ming. The hoepitalities of the city wer® ten- dered the visiting organization by the mayor. The Courier says:—*‘ The impression already made by the (age of the corps and the city is most favorable. They are gentlemen, and will be pleasant acquaintances. They bear them- selves as soldiers. Their showy uniforms at- tract attention and admiration.” —— Two Dratus at Tus East Exp.—Mr. Jos, Mandell, a well-known citizen of the navy yard, dicd of consumption, after a lingering ness, at bis residence on ‘ith street east, yes- terday, in the 65th year of his age.

The Exhibition the Trials of {Correspondence of the Star.) Rockvittz, Mowtcowzry Co., Mp., Sept. 10. After the delivery of the opening address yesterday and ‘he cold snack lunch, the crowd bused themselves in examining the stock and various articles on exhibition. “Taking a start- ing point at the left of the gate, the first articles of interest are TRE FARMING IMPLEMENTS, of which there are a large number, the crest of the hill and the open sheds being entirely tilled with all manner of reapers, mowers, p' 5 pumps, winnowing machines, horse-powers, fertilizers, &c., &c., and at least three-fourths of allon exhibition are from District dealers. John A. Baker, P. Mann, L. J. Kinsolving and C. Noyes, of Washington, and F. L. Moore @. L. Dunlop, of Georgetown, being the princi- palexhibitors. Passing still farther to the lett, and moving down the east side of the enclosure, the pens for STOCK ur are reach¢d, and here, perhaps, }s the very bert feature of the exhibition, for never outside of acetate fair has been seen such a fine dispiny of live stock. The cattle embrace selections from all the best breeds, while the sheep and swine also give evidence of great care in the matter of breeding and cultare. At the side of the ens, in the space between them and the main fail, stand the chicken coops, pretentions etrnetures, three stories high, into which upon every floor, like a tenement honse, are crowded birds of bigh and low d ,each stepping as jroudly and crowing and cackling as loudly as though the whole of this big house belonged to him or her. Here are some fine specimens of fowls, but no large tiocks, there being only a pair or so of each kind.

There are several from Washington, carefully groomed and kept in waiting for the big race to-morrow, for the $300 premium. Leaving the horse stalls and tripping it back across the fine little race track, we arrive at THE EXHIBITION HALL, - | inside of which should be seen the pumpkins and squashes, potatoes, turnips, and ‘sich, only this year you den’t see them at all. I be- heve there is not a pumpkin or syuash on exhi- bition, and the potatoes, turnips, tomatoes, beets, &c., are very meager. There are, it is true, some fine specimens of all-but squashes and pumpkins, but there is only asmall bunch of each; showing that they are the result of se- lecting a few overgrown specimens, which are always found in gardens. and not samples of large lots grown by careful culture. This can- not be helped, however, and it is a wonder that any are here at all, for the drought which lasted from May to the latter part of _— pata quietus on the vegetable kingdom. The same may be eaid of the corn and grain generally. ‘There are very few specimens here. There isa retty fair show of fruit, pes, and | seiecred bein quite abundant and very nice.

In the center of the hall J. A.

Over the speaker’s stand an arch was raised during the day bearing the words “Agricul- ture, the wealth of the nation.” 5 Heijprnn is THIS 18 A LIVELY DAY here, and an immense crowd is present.

WASINGTONIANS IX TRO — Yesterday afternoon two youvg and genteelly- eu women and a man came here trom Washington to pay, as they said, some calls, and, to enable them to bear the fatigues of the day, repaired to Cooney’s restaurant, where they ordered re- freshments. But whilst the dinner was ia preparation, the handsomer of the women, Mrs. Altce Rapp, having looked too often upon the wine cup when it was red, proceeded to dis turb the harmony of the household, and did it 80 effectually as to induce the proprietors of the establishment to request her and her friends to vacate the premises at once, and to staud not upon the order of their departure. This re- quest was complied with by Mr. William Bell and Mrs. Lilly Homes, but, though urged in emphatic terms, was unheeded vy Mrs. Rapp; £0 she was seized, dragged down the stops and ejected in demoralized condition, baviag dropped her watch, and, as she asserted, lost an envelope containing forty-five dollars, by the violence of her egress. Hur watch was restored, but no money could be found, whereupon, az companied by her two companions, sha went 10 the office of Justice Padgett, by whom, at her instance, a warrant for an arrest was issued against John and Jozeph Cooney, and the lattar having appeared at the jastice’s office, in one- dience to the summons of Constable Burnett, in company with bis counsel, Mr. Edmund Burke, the case was tried with closed doors, aud dis mised at the cost of complainant. «. sion £0 much enraged Mrs. Rapp that she ap- proached the defendant and struck him twice on the nose with the handle of her parasol, for doing which the justice threatened to lock her in the station-house. This put a qaietus to the proceedings, and the Washingtouiaus retired eadly discomtited. Guost.—A veritable ghost now haunts that —— of the first ward known as Tunveal ‘own.
