The facts of the case are that there is a large number of idle and worthless men who hage to pass most of their time in the poor-house without labor, and it is proposed to make them earn their bread here or starve, especially those who are able-bodied.

Johnson testified that he was pastor of the Fourth Baptist chureh and_a special po- liceman at the Presideut’s grounds; tuat wien he saw the fire he went into the yard to put it out.

Patrick McBride, assault on Patrick Nichol: —————20e———_ ALapy Struck anp KILLep By LIGHT- NING.—On Sunday afternoon last a cloud gathered in the west and rapidly overspread the horizon. It was accompanied by heavy thunder and vivid lightning. When the cloud began to gather the dwelling house of Louis H. Perkins, in Spaniard’s Neck, was open to catch the breeze, the day being a very warm one. The family at once proceeded to up the house, Mrs. Perkins being up stairs and Miss Ann Cahall on the first tloor. Whilst thus engaged a current of electricity struck the eastern corner of the house, tore away the cornice, and running down the corner post to the lower part of the house, tore away in its progress the weather-boarding and the plis- tering. When it reached the lower floor the current left the corner of the house and passed out into the room and thence out a window. Miss Ann Cahall, who was at the time in the lower room fastening it np, was struek by the current and instantly killed.

They are let in flats, upon a bew associated principle; and Mr. has chosen for his own apartment highest story, where he commands the purest air, with views of the parks. Surry 1ilis and northern heights. The suites of apartments are so eagerly sought after by those who wish to avoid the cares of house- keeping that Mr. Hankey is building a second block of houses twelve Stories high. The ten: ants are chiefly bachelors, whose suites con- tain a bed-room and sitting-room; but there are also family suites of ten rooms. ° Elevators, of course, travel to each story, and electri bells and'speaking-tubes are in every room.

She said to the sergeant in the 4th street police station that she supported her husband, and as she had been without work lately she could provide him no supper on Monday night, and when he came home he was angry, and said: “Go drown yourself, d— you.” She left the house in desperation, begged her way on to the ferry boat, and at* tempted to take her life.

Trine, is now in the coal regions of Pennsylvania, and he reports that a movement is on foot for a general strike Au- ust 15. Among other things he gives the fol- lowing report of a conversation with a manu- facturer: s “The chances are,” said he, “that we shall have much more serious trouble within the next two months than that which came upon us so unexpectedly last summer. Prepara- tlens are being made fora simultaneous strike all over the country—on the railroads, at the mines, in many of the largest manu‘acturing establishments—and nothing but the utmost vigilance on the part of the State authoriti-s, and such preparations as will make it possible to crush out such a movement instantly will prevent one of the worst calamities that has ever befallen this ot A “If anything of the kind is contemplated, why has it not already taken places * Lasked. “The 15th of June was said to have been fixed for a general outbreak, but that day came and went with no disturbance, and the alarm turned out to be a false one. The experience of last summer, of course, causes ay sion, bu yihing definitely know: the plans of the workingmen oa which to have such an opinion as you have just given?’ “ There is,” he replied.‘ The talk in regard to a strike on the 15th of June had more in it than most people imagined. That day was actually fixed, and the outbreak would ¢° tainly have taken place then, or soon after, but for te preparations made to preserve tie peace by Gov. Hat t, of this state. When he called out the militia and made arrange. ments to obtain uniforms and equipments for them at the Frankford arsenal, those who were to have managed the strike ealied a eom- mittee meeting in Philadelphia, and, after dis cussing the matter, voted to postpone the attack to the 15th of August,when it was hoped that the country might be taken by surprise. That meeting was held in. May, I believe, and although several other important: meetings have since been called, I don’t think the day for beginning the strike has been chanzed. i know that there has been much more activity among the workingmen in preparing for it Sinee than before the Philadelphia meeting.” “What has been done at the subsequent meetings of which you speak?” “T have been unable to learn very much about them. One held in New York was at- tended by one of my employes. At that me ing it was voted that the workingmen at un- portant points must be armed, and a commit- tee was appointed to collect money, procure arms and distribute them. The idea was to purchase secondhand guns and muskets, and to have those which needed repair put in or- der, Then they were to be shipped to desig- nated points on the eanals, lakes and rivers, by water, whence they were to be distributed in wagons.

The additional employment for silver thus furnished would be at once a relief to the civilized nations now overburdened with silver, and a great gain to the impoverished people among whom it would circulate. There can be little doubt that the Anglo-Turkish treaty opens up to commerce what is equivalent to a new continent, and all nations will derive some benefit from ‘it. But the most immediate benfit that could accrue from that arrangement, so far as this country is concerned, would be the establishment of an open mint for coining silver rupees in Cyprus.—(N. ¥.

A REMARKABLE CURE BY BLOOD Trans FUSION has been wrought in Boston. Cecilia Merkel, a child of seven es, was attacked first by diphtheria, next by reflex paralysis, and finaily by sanguinea purprea, and her life was despaired of. Her father, who is a physi- cian, consented to have the experiment of blood transfusion tried. Blood was taken from the veins of a young man of eighteen, and injected with a syringe into the child’s system. Subsequently the little one took cold and began coughing with a mucus rattle in her throat, so that the father was compelled to afford artificial respiration. He then took blood from the veins of his servant, a healthy girlof nineteen, and the effect of the trans- fusion was charming. The child fell into a peaceful sleep, and a remarkable change came over her. When she awoke she asked for her playthings, and from that hour her improvement was rapid. Her father has made this remark to a Globe reporter: “There she was, growing rapidly worse and worse, her nervous powers getting weaker and Weaker, She was sinking, and evidently beyond the reach of all human aid, and at one time life itself had almost fled. The respira- tion was not to be seen, her forehead icy cold, her body Porplish. and the beating of the Pulse could not be distinguished. Yes, sir, Without doubt, it was the transfusion of blood that restored my daughter.” NOLD was engaged in delivering the prayer with which Henry the Fifth goes into attle, while playing at Indianapolis a few weeks ago,a all from the gallery hit him inthe face with force. The de except that he opened his eyes and fixed them ominously on the offending quarter, he kept on with his lines. Just as he came to “Amen,” however, another missle from th blow. pipe entered his mouth, and for the mo After his majest Gen. Grant on the Late War. EIS OPINION OF SOUTHERN AND NOR” qepy GENERALS, ETC. The New York Herald of ¥“.srerday prints another long talk of Gen. \j-,nt’s witha cor- respondent, this time on the men and events | of the late war, ‘rhe gist of the seven columas interview is thus summarized by that paper in an editorial: In the conversations recorded by correspondent General Grant touches many of the most interesting parts of the war. It is curious to read, for instance, that if he had known the soldiers and generals of the Poto- mac Army better he would have preferred to invest Lee in Richmond from the Lynchburg or land side, as he invested Pemberton in Vieksburg. But it is evident from what he says here that he was never bitten with the notion, so prevalent at one time in the north, that Richmond in itself was of importance. He always saw, with his clear military eye, that Lee was his objective point. On this head we remember a remark he made to an inti- | mate personal friend, when first he came eas: * Well, general,” said this buat to take command. friend, “I don't want to ask you anything you mean to capture Richmond, I hoy Grant replied briefly, “I mean to beat Lee and there showed that he perfectly compr hended the vital point of his operations. What he says about the losses in the Wilderness campaign Will surprise many persons; but he must be allowed to speak from accurate knowledge when he says that his total losses in that campaign amounted to only thirty-nine thousand men. Every military man willagree with him when he says that that campaign was necessary to destroy the southern confeder acy. It was necessary in ord-r to give the army ofthe Potomac confide@te in its new commander, and the conviction that under Grant they would no longer fight and fall back, as they had so often and, in fact, invariably done, but fight and advance. Grant's narrative of the circumstances at- tending the surrender of Lee, with the picture of his muddy and worn uniform, and Lee's magnificent Say ond the apology, each made tothe other for his dress, will be welcome to the historians who shall attempt to describe this famous event. It will be seen that the judgments he passes upon the generals and public men of both sides are always impartial, Kindly and generous. He praises Gen. But- ler, wishes he had had abler subordinates, and ox presses regret that an unlucky phrase in his official report should have annoyed Butler. He thinks Jefferson Davis did all he could for the confederacy, and did not deserve the harsh sriticism he got. He thinks Stonewall Jack- sou might not have proved so effective a gen- eral jater on in the war, and opposed to men like Sherman and Sheridan, when his peculiar tactics would have failed. In this he is proba bly right: Jackson outmarched and outman- «wuvied his slower antagonists, but wl troops gained commanders who a With celerity, it is doubtful if mous phrase to his soldiers, “W into a cornfield eat enough to last you a week , would have ed him from disaster. Graut seenis to think Lee not so great as his repr tiou—speaking of him, of course, as a soldie and not as aman. He was neve when in front of Lee commauder nd he describes him as a man of slow d, without ima on, and of grave dignity of demeanor. Gen. Joe John- ston, in his opinion, was the ablest command er on the southern side. Of Bragg he appears to have but a poor opinion. He telis a singular story of President John- son’s desire at one time to arrest Gen. Lee and other southern commanders for treason, by way of making rebellion odious. Grant and Seward had, it seems, the manliness and good sense to oppose and defeat this folly ; and Gen. Grant says he would have resigned his com- mission rather than consent to the arrest, the southern men being sacred under their parole to him. Rosecrans, Buckner, McClellan, Buell, Stone and McDowell were, he says,in the opinion of the old_army, the most promising officers in is61. He still’ thinks that Buell had genius for the highest commands, and that McDowell was a man of great ability; and he cannot ac- count for the ill-luck of poor Sione, which has puzajed many other men who knew him asone of the most highly cultivated officers in the old army, and one of its best soldiers. Sherman and Sheridan he praises without stint, and re- lates an odd story of his first meeting with the latter, when Sheridan, then colonel of a regi- ment, was rude to him. Sherman, he says, i not only one of the best men living, but one of the Erosiest we have had in our history; and he gives a curious account of how Sherman narrative of the war was misrepresented to him, so that he determined to read it, pencil in hand, and pubiish a reply, but found it “a true book, an honorable buok, just to all,” and he approves every word of it. Hancock, he thinks, was one of the ablest of our generals. S some of our ott CITY ITEMS.
