Albany to attend his door in the Treasury Departmentorrites Correspondent to the Cincinnati Commercial Gazette has been pointed out by the othercolored messngers and door-keepers to visitors as a curiosity "There" they would say "is the BOW Democratio colored man" The object of all this attention d14 not appear to be much embarrassed by the notoriety given him Ile leaned his head back against the well when not otherwise engaged and regard his in spectors with a calm look of conecious superiority that none but a New Yorker could assume Ile weakened this after- noon however end lost at the same time his claim to distinction A visitor to whom the "colored Democrat" was pointed out approached and in a loud voice told him he wanted to shake hands with the first black Democrat he bad ever seen All the other colored men in the hall paused to see what the new man would do Be was not equal to the occasion Instead of accepting the invitattoo to shake bands he glanced around at his brother door-keepers but reading nothing in their fame to encourage him he faltered: "I ain't no Democrat" "You ain't?" exclaimed the visitor and all the door-keepers in one surprised voice "No I ain't!" answernd the New Yorker sullenly looking about as if he feared a razor "Theo you is a Republican?" ques- tioned one of the colored men "No I ain't no Republican neither" said the darky with a stubborn glance toward Manning's door "I ain't no Re publican nor no Democrat I never voted In my life What you fellers been given me since I come here anywily?" he asked reproachfully trying to make friends as he saw how he had dropped in department estimation All turned away from the new man who wee neither a Demo crat nor a Republican and hereafter he will be ostracised until there are more of his own kind brought in to keep him Company They hale a new white the Department of Justice that beats Manning's colored man The first day the messenger 'was put on duty the A ttoney General rang his bell and the Irishman answered it "Tell the Solicitor General -I would like to see him" said Garland "Tell who sor?" asked the Irishman much agitated by his first order "The Solicitor General" answered Mr Garland as he scratched away at a letter without looking nix "All right sor" said the man as he hurried out to find where the Solicitor General was He was soon in that officer's room-'Say!" he yelled at the astonished Sce licitor General whose title he had problbly forgotten' "there' a gintleman down-stairs that wants to see yes" "Tell him to crime up then" snarled the Solicitor General annoyed at the manner of the announcement Down went the willing Irishman to the Attorney General's room with the invitation "The gintleman up-stairs sec for yes to come up Nor" said the messenger with a triumphant air as if he had accomplished his errand with great diplomacy "He Bays for me to come up?" inquired the amazed Attorney General as he dropped his pen and nearly stopped breathing "Yis soy he did" answered the Irishman Wondering what could be the matter to cause such an extranrdinary 'message from his subordinate and fixing up a sentence to crush the presuming man if he should discover any attempt at disrespect the Attorney General went up-stairs Had a ghost hppeared to the Solicitor General be could not have been more surprised than when he saw who the "gintleman" was that wanted to see him It did not take long for explanations and an understanding when an appreciation of the joke caused by the new man's stuillity caused both official' to laugh heartily as genuine The Attortley Gen-oral than read the account count for these monthsswhich was sent to the Comptroller Oct 13 I don't remember whether I lion4 the for the account or not but either I or my deputy did as

sent about the middle of October last was accompanied by a letter from Abe Sheriff of London County Hi has been sending these accounts to our office at intervals since February 1883 which were accompanied by letters Witness identified the letter and October accounts when produced in court The bills sent last October were not sworn to before the Circuit Clerk of London and were therefore sent to Fonts toget the Clerk's certificate They were retunted with the Clerk's certificate and a warrant for $2- 14380 was Issued to cover the four months indicated This warrant was returned as paid from the Treasurer's office There were forty-three prisoners reported for May forty-four for June fortyfour for July and forty-eight for Angust The State asked to introduce bills for other months The defense objected but were overruled A letter dated Dec 18 1881 accompanied by jailer's fees for September and October 1884 were then read and after- ward bills for the other monhts of 1844 McConnell testified: I am the Attorney-General for the district comprising Loudon County Witness was well acquainted with Fonts sheriff of London County in I ::1: Witness swore that the bill of coals laid in the indictment was in the handwriting of the defendant and witness as Attorney-General approved the amount when presented to him 'but says that while he signed the account it had been altered since be had signed IL There were several prisoners mentioned as being confined for felonies when they Only been confined for misdemeanors There were about twenty-five names included In the bill of costs that witness could not recollect as having been in the jell of London County The prisoners of Roane County for a time were kept in Loudon jail Judge Rodgers said he was the Circuit Jude of the Judicial Circuit in-eluding Loudon County that he knew the defendant well I think there must have been something near thirty names added to the bills since they were signed by me Before Judge Rodgers' testimony was concluded the court adjourned until this morning at 8:30 o'clock The State is 'represented by Hon Head and ex-Congressman Acklen besides the Attorney General and the defense by Judge East Lytton Taylor and Nelson of Loudon County The jury in the Buck Brown case were called into court about 2 o'clock and asked if they had agreeil upon a verdict The reply came in the negative I "Can

management and pereonnel of the Americans The stockholders last Tuesday morning decided to release Manager Bryan which was done when the gatesi were opened for the game with Auguitm The step iressecret and not a half dozen men on the grounds were aware of IL Yeater day morning at a formal meeting of the stockholders Mr Kellogg was installed captain and manager and In the afternoon Beard was selected first assistant captain tied pleetel second These electrons met with the hearty approval of every member of the club and the dissensions which have of 1 late been peculiarly notioeable may now 1 be regarded as entirely removed At a meeting on the grouoda in the afternoon the players individually declared to representatives of the board of stockholders that they were determined to work as one man for the success of the organization and to exert to the uttermost their capacity to win The stockholders as suredihem that this spirit was appredated but at the same time stated that any attempt to throw oft a game neg- ligence or dissipation would in the futube be peremptorily dealt with The management at the solicitation of all the clubs In the league who bear the names of their respective towns -and with the indorsement of the American filed a petition for a charter changing tad name of the club to the Nashville Base Ball Amociation The stockholders offered a prize of 835 to the man who should make the beat batting record with the Atlanta and $15 to the second beet This will doubt less prove an incentive to the games and added to the standing preminms amounting to 850 afford some one a rare opDortnuity io render glory a practical benefit The Atlantis are due for Monday Tuesday and Thursday next and it is pmpoeed to induce them to consent to a charity game on Wednesday for the benefit of the Randall Cole Industrial Home The' locals are anxious to do this and believe that their visitors will consent The management will probably secure Knonfr as an additional boxman He is known to be exceedingly speedy and is now in hard practice here Cullen thinks he is equal to any man in the league and has played behind him If he is secured the locals will have three batteries: Voss and Hellman Crowell and Cullen or Marr KOQTRIT and Cullen or Hillery Manager rellogg proposes to permanently play his bases and field as follow: Marr first Kellogg second Hillery third Werrick left Diestel centre Sawdert right Beard short ptop In the game to-day the order will be: Man Crowell Sowders lb Kellogg 21) Hillery 3b Beard I Warrick 1 le Cullen The odds are

indicated above they scored nothinm The audience was wild when Columbus went in at the close of the eleventh inning the -Ore of both being even It was quite dark and the ball was hard to distinguish 1 Sullivan the Atlanta pitcher then played a desultory game trying to prolong it into absolute darkness claiming that it was -dangerous to his catcher to stand before his ball In the darkness Whiting of the Columbus bad made third base and the Atlantas still held off the game Director Collier of the Atlantis after a consaltationwith the other directors went to the umpire and notified him that the directors thought Coluthbus should ne given the game and Umpire Cartwright gave the game to Cc lumbus by a score of nine to nothing It was well received by the audience and everybody was satisfied

scene last night Every seat in the hotue was taken end only a best here and there wits not oocupied The lower floor back to the walls was closely studded with at-Unties laces the balcony presented the same appearance and several hundred listeners occupied seats in the gallery The night was oppressive and the heat in the auditorium intense i but melds from We there was nothlog to mu the pleasure of the evening 1 The stage wee arranged in tiers and I seated comfortably the large orchestral and the 160 singers ladies and gentle men Garlands of evergreen hung gracer fully about the aides of the proscenium 1 boxes and the pleasing effect produced was iocreased by bastion' of Choicest bright flowers arranged upon tables and 1 stands Around the several balconies of ean hs interior other

the goo oustics of the bal cony far surpassed that today in any 1 other part of the house Thu is owing to 1 the fact that the stage and singent were above the pit and hardly more than on a level with the other portions of the lower floor It was evidentafter the fret chorus that mucked the sound and the ffect from the chorus for which so much labor has been given went to the unappreciative denizens

deviations of any kind to the Freedotzr of the final "God Save the King" Weber wrote very few overtures and this is the only one written not connected with an opera In this be foreshadows-the coming of Wagner making prominent use of the brass instrument The words of the pro' gramme state wtth 'great truth if this overture is taken se' a type of Weber's style that his great artistic qualities

harmony being pladed in the first rank by all pianists as Beethoven's greatest piano workand the best illustration of piano concerto known serving the present and to serve the coming generation as a model for this of piano composition' The in atzumentation is at all times as prominent as the piano Of the Andante Essays have been written and essays too of the Allegro The one is beautiful to the point of inspiration the other is noble and grand to the outer limit of the poetry within the scope of music The andante la almost elegiac in its mournful cadences the brightness and verve elan and

How Prof Odium Saved Nashville 1 Man from Daring Exploits Prof Odium who loot his life Tueeday in jumping from the middle span of Brooklyn Bridge to the- water 135 feet below was well known to great many Nashville people who saw him at OW Point Comfort Vs in the summer of 1882 At that time he taught the swim ming school there and more than one Nashville lady was in his claim' During that summer he saved' three persona from 'dmwniug Its the ocean one of whom was Mr Cooley of Nashville-- and another the son of Hon' Schuyler Colfax Prof Odium was a magnificent specimen of robust manhood and made a friend of every person who came in contact with him He accomplished some daring feats in the way of jumping and on two occasions swam the distance from Old Point Comfort to Ocean Grove eight miles distance passing around the "rip rap" which carried him far out to sea The second attempt was roads because some people doubted his doing it the first time and the last attempt showed more than ever the indomitable perseverance of the man His call was heard about 8 o'clock at night for some one to show him where to land and when guests from the Hygeia went down and helped him out his right arm was fearfully lacerated He carried a- etilletto for protection against sharks and about four miles from his destination think lug he was being 'attacked drew his weapon from ha sheath and aocidental ly out himself badly through the fleshy part of the arm The salt water acting as an astrinpmt closed the severed arteries and saved his life In this condi tion he continued to swim and arrived at his destination being some bows in i the water with his wounded arm On the occasion referred to Mr Cooley who was in feeble health was out bath log when his strength suddenly gave way and he felt himself sinking Knowing that the water was far beyond his depth he called on a companion to assist him and his companion being unable to respond called Odium who left his pm- pile and rescued Mr dooley from death In return Mr Cooley sent him a band present which Odium acknowl edged in a letter now In its- recipient's To-day James Haggart who accompanied Odium on his mission to take the fatal jump was arraigned in WBrooklyn Police Wart on a charge of aiding lum to commit an act endangering the letter's life Another charge against him is outraging pubitc decency in aiding the act The accused was committed to jail wtthout bail for examination 1DLANS AND PROPOSALS FOR BUILD- ing a bridge across South Cross Creek on Borer Cumberland City Road will be received until June 1 A p-

there places are spotted they meet in a private room It was until a short time ago quite easy to catch a game in a hotel but they've gotten up something now that makes this difficult By walking through a hotel we could easily hear the alleging of poker checks and locate the game and catch the players They've done away with ivory and' composition checks because they made noise in being handled and have substituted a noiseless check made of compressed paper When placed on the green baize and shuffled around they make no mere noise than if they were of Bolt ruhker A short time ago we
