TIE GoTTscHALK-BRIGHoLI CONCERT
The last concert of this splendid troupe was
given yesterday evening to full audience,
which in spite of the mud crowded Brain
ards Hall last night. Most richly was the
audience repaid for their perseverance in
surmOunting the obstacles of wind and mud.
Mile COrdier was in splendid voice and ac-
Quilted herself with eoIat in the shsdow-song
and Dinnah. BriguOli did justice to him
self and his high reputation. Patti surpass-
ed himself and the inimitable Gottschalk was
as unequalled as ever. We trust that the
citizens Of Cleveland may have the pleasure
of bearing the troupe again soon.

Spirit of the Young Ladies of 1868,
On Tuesday morning last during the S.
we're storm, several young ladies entered
one of the cars running through UniVersi-
ty Place on their way to school. An old
and respectable looking colOred woman
entered the cars at the same time. The
conductor stopped the car and ejeOted her
from it. The young ladies, in their indig-
nation at this outrage, at once left the car
in body, and walked to their school, one
Of the best in the city. They arrived late,
but on relating the cause Of their deten-
tion, they received, as they deserved, the
praise Of the principal and Of their teach

The Army Of the Potomac Again Under 1

Cloud
The mystery which has enTeloped the
Army Of the Potomac is clearing up, but
unfortunately, repulse and, to degree, DIS
aster rather than victory is disclosed.
It will be seen by our telegraphic report
thst on Friday last, General Warren, with
the I'd corps and the Sd division Of The 9Th
had 3 severe battle with Lee on the banks
Of Mine Run, where the advantages of the
ground we're with the enemy. The result
was g serious check to our arms. Warren
was driven back, without very great loss
however.
The issue Of this fight seems to have
discouraged Meade, and on Tuesday night
he commenced retreat. He is now lying
on the line Of the 0rsnge s Alexandra
Railroad, st CnlPepper, Brandy Station
and RsppRhannOek Bridge, where abund-
ant supplies are reaching him. It is said
THAI Meade will be removed from the COM
mand. We doubt the report. Meade is
not great man but where is there q
4 greater who is available

TIE MEDINA MURBER CAsE.-Streeter,
the murderer Of the MccOys, in Medina last
summer, whose conviction and sentence we
noticed day or two ago, conducted himself
during the trial, says the Elyris Democrat,
with degree of indifference that caused gen
eral remark but when HE uyao-, Jadse
Burke, in pronOuncing the terrible sentence
of the law, referred to the murder of the in
nocent, sleeping boy, the prisoner sank upon
the floor in a swoon. He is about twenty six
years Of age, small in stature, and quite fop-
pish in appearance. he is undoubtedly the
most dangerous criminal of his years in the
country, and if this was his first murder, he
has schooled himself to commit the terrible
deed with remarkable facility.

This is named after Chickamsugus creek,
which finds its source in Walker county,
Georgia, and flows into the Tennessee riv-
er near Chattanooga. The Indian word
Chickamaugua signifies "very crooked, y

for the serpentine creek.

TUNNEL HILL.
Tunnell Hill, thirty-oue miles south Of
| Chattanooga, on the Western and Atlantic
Railroad, stands in Murray county, Gsor-
gia, where the mountains seem to come TO-
gether, forming a sublime, terrific am
phitheatre, as though with Titantic pur-
puse Of hemming in the railroad. The tun-
mel at this place is l, 447 feet long Is feet
high, Wsth clear with of twelve feet, but
is in some respects inferior to the tunnel
on the Louisville and Nashville, or even
the one upon the Pennsylvania Central
road. This cut in Georgia is in q great
measure through solid rock, the lateral
walls Of rock being six feet thick at the
base, and five feet st the top. The sp-
prOsehes TO the tunnel are protected on
both sides by massive masonry.
DALTON.
Our latest dispatches from the seat Of
war in the southwest inform US that our
army is fighting near Dalton. Dalton is
thirty eight miles from Chattanooga, and
beyond the tremendous ranges Of noun
tsins which almost entirely fill the space
between this place aud the state line.
Dalton obtained its name from Thristhm
Dalton, an eminent New England mer-
chant It is the capital Of whitfield ooun-
ty, and was laid out in the year 1910.
Its location is in a beautiful and fertile
valley, enviruned by mountains from the
SUBMITS Of which the eye is RECALLED with
the grandest scenery. Tais section Of Geor-
gia was the larsest grain producing coun-
try in the State.-All around Dalton are
excellent limestone springs, which will
afford an abundance Of pure water for cur
men, both for the purpose of drinking snd
bathing Dalton is one Of the most flour
ishing towns in the Staio, having popu-
lstion of three thousand, many Of whom
Sre Germans. The population had, up to
the commencement of the rebellion, in
creased TIVE thirds in three years, owing
to its railroad importance. General Grant
has passed the most stubborn portion of
the country when he has arrived at Dal-
ton.
The distance then to Atlanta is about
hundred miles, through rather poor Sec
tion Of Georgia, only disturbed by an oe-
casionsl range Of monster hills, and doz-
en- or more fOrlorn, struggling villeges
and towns. The railroad will, no doubt,

There seems to be quite an exodus of col

quota for that shrswd and patriotic little
State will be entirely filed by OolOred vOlun-
