In speaking of this company, the Cincinnati Times-Star says: ''The New Orleans Minstrels gave their first performance in this city yesterday, give a surprising good performance. The performance was a surprise, because it was supposed that all the first-class minstrel organizations had been seen here, but it is now certain that at least one has heretofore failed to visit us, a circumstance that whoever is responsible for should be duly censured. Coming in an unpretentious manner, which, in contrast to the usual circus methods, seemed a timidity growing out of a lack of merit, they fairly astonished the immense audiences that filled Robinson's Opera House to overflowing by the excellence of their performance. The show is entitled to the recognition given to real merit. Valentines.

Meeting- of the State Grange. A determined effort is now being made to have the next meeting of the State Grange to meet in this place, and several gentlemen, connected with the order, have taken the matter in hands and will do their utmost to have the meeting held here.

"The Devil's Own Wagon." A yard employe informs the Call that car No. 1313, of the special Green line, is "the devil's own wagon on eight ill-fated wheels." To his own knowledge that car has killed 16 or 18 people, who were breaking upon it, and has maimed half a dozen more.

Ho affirms there is a streak of bad luck connected with that car, and no one who knows anything about it will go near it. He would rather take his chances on the cow-catcher of an engine all night than stay by the brakes of No. 1313. It has got a bad name and railroaders have, to some extent, became superstitious on account of it. a few New Markets, and just a few Plush AVraps left.

Under the above heading the Pittsburg Dispatch published an account of the elopement and subsequent marriage of Miss Lou Kennard, who has resided for several years in this place, with her par- to a mate named Kelly of New Haven, Conn. Miss Kennard is about 17 years of age, small in stature, and a very pretty blonde, and has had many admirers in this place.

Sometimes ago she went on a visit to friends in Pittsburgh, and the following account from Ansonia, will describe what has occurred since: William A. Kelly, a young man belonging in Birmingham and who works in the Winchester Arms Factory in New Haven, was attacked with scarlet fever when a baby, which left him deaf and dumb. Deprived of the companionship of the young; he felt his isolation keenly. Some months ago he inserted an advertisement in a matrimonial journal, and among the answers seceived was one from Pittsburg, signed Lou Kenard. A correspondence followed, and, on Kelly's part, soon grew into expression oflpassionate love.

Miss Kennard apparently reciprocated his affections, and sent her picture to her unknown lover. Her parents learned of the correspondence, and sent her to an inland town in Pennsylvania, with instructions to stop writing to Kelly. She obeyed, but Kelly kept writing to the old address. Receiving no reply to his letters, he telegraphed to her that unless he received some word by a certain date he should go to Pittsburg. The dispatch fell into the hands of the young brother of Miss Kennard, and he sent Kelly her address, to which place Kelly hastened.

It was their first meeting, and notwithstanding the young man was deaf and dumb, her love for him was so strong that she eloped with him, and together they went to New York. On Wednesday Mr. G. W. Hall arrived in New Haven and inquired for Kelley.

Ascertaining that he was iii Ansonia, Hall came here Thursday and found Kelley with Miss Kennard. He was surprised when told that the young couple had been married by the rector of St.Ann's Church, New York, on Wednesday. Mrs. Kelly said that Hall was a suitor for her hand, but that she would never have married him, as he was twice as old as she. Hall returned home, and efforts are being made to conciliate the young bride's parents.

Kelly is about 17 years of age, Kelly is about 21, is of good and is earning a good living at his trade of machinist. The G. W. Hall referred to in the above dispatch is Chas. Hall, of this place.

Hall left here on Tuesday evening last and up to this time has not returned. A note was received from him in which ho asked a friend to take charge of his store in this place. Hart, (foreman,) E. N. McCoinb, Matthew Elliott.
