THE BALL OF THE GRAND ARMY
OF THE REPUBLIo.-For some incom-
pfehensible reason the soiree project
ed for last night by the Grand Army
of the Republic was not decided
success. We are not prepared to give
any reason for this failure on the part
of our people to respond TO an appeal
made in behalf of the widows and or.
phans Of the brave men who laid
down their lives in our defense
When an appeal was made in behalf
of. those who had recently been bat
Ting against our flag and our Govern
ment our citizens responded nobly,
and we were proud to re-
cord the fact But when the
widows and orphans of our own brave
boys, appeal for relief and aid, deaf
ear is turned to the cry. and not half
the expense is realized.
The Crescent City Band was present,
and entertained the few with choicest
music. The Turner Band was also
there, and played finely; and with
that generosity that characterizes our
German fellow citizens, they refused
any Compensation. 81
The supper, prepared by Hilt& Oehl-
kuch was truly magnificent, and had
been provided in profuse abundance.
In variety and excellence we have
never seen it surpassed. We can not
account for the apathy on the part Of
the people of Evansville on this oc-
casion. The managers and all pre- 2
sent felt deeply mortified at the. result
of their efforts. eel .

COMMON PLEAS CoURT.-A very

large amount OF business was transact
ed in the Common Pleas Court yester-
day, though there was nothing done
of general public interest Most of
the business was probate and civil
cases. Many judgments were taken
by default. ssg .yraasl
In the ase,ofthe State vs.. Geo. Brown
(colored), for larceny, the jury return
ed a verdict Of guilty, and awarded the
''ecolored cuss from Africa ~ two

of one dollar, and, be, disfranchised
for a period of twenty years.
The Court adjourned early in order

cases of interest on the docket, and
the term viii not be lengthy one.
BEFoRE JUSTICE WALKER.-Chas.
Williams. lineal descendent of Ham,
with slight admixture of Southern
blood, was arrested Yesterday on
charge of stealing coat, or rather
the manufactured materials of a
coat, from Smith & Darling, merchant
tailors With the coat was also found
a shawl, stolen from the same parties,
and an overcoat, the owners of which
have not been discovered. In search
ing his room where he lodged, Der
ringer pistol, the property of the City
Marshal, Klein, was also discovered.
He said he had bought the pistol from
a negro, that some ladies had given
him the coat, and another negro the
shawl. Justice Walker, however,
got it into his head that the fellow
had been stealing, and required him
to give bail in the sum of $500. He
didn't have the money, and as a
necessity rests his ebony limbs at
Castle Darling awaiting the pleasure
ofthe Court. He will, no doubt, be
sent as an associate for. time with

q FURTHER OF THE Cow CAsE.-The
City Marshal, yesterday, in obedience
to- instructions from the City Coun-

the COW that was reported to have
been bitten by mad dog in the Vi
entity of 9Oakdam, and afterwards |
driven to this city. He did not find |
The man who is said to have bought |
the cow, nor did he find the cow He
lid, however, find certain men from
the vicinity of Oakdams who told him
that the COW, two dogs and two or
,hree hogs that had been bitten by the
mad dog had all been killed and burn
ID in the woods between that village /
md this city. We do not think that |
his story is true, and more rigid |
should be instituted. |
We have known cases of a similar
character. but not so infamous, and it
S not impossible that there is yet
man who is utterly degraded and mer-
,enary as to endanger the lives of
whole community for small pecunia-,
y consideration. Men have been so
as to throw a railroad |
rain from the track when filled with
women and children, s to crafty a
'pite against the company, or to fire
building toothe imminent risk of
he inmates. The city authorities,
We doubt not, will probe this matter
o the bottom. 74

Paris Exhibition (,o..ip.

BIZ The General Omnibus COMPANY of Paris
will run fifty-eight new conveyanccs specially
for the service of the Exhibition, beginning on
the LIST of April Paris has already seven hum
dred omnibuses in use. Five hundred new
cabs, moreover, are about to be placed at the
disposition OF exhibition visitors, and provision
is to be made for middle class, as well as for
millionaire and working class travellers.
A correspondent of the London Daily News
writes: "Already some of the botels-and those
the normal prices of which are extortionate-
have resolved to develop their international
hospitality by greeting their exhibition travel
lers with an increase of twenty or thirty nay
fifty per cent on their ordinary tariff. They
look upon the exhibition much as the pickpock-
ct looks upon fire. They forget that their ex-
tortions have only to be made known to reduce
the number of travellers from abroad more
than enough to bring them bacl, IN their nor
NAL prices. Take the Grand Hotel for an ex-
ample. Its tariff is monstrously extravagant
even now. 1 will ask any reader who may
have sojourned in it what he would think of
even twenty per cent. added to the bill he paid
on leaving?"
The London Morning Post SAYS: "The must
cal section of the forthcoming exhibition will
reveal some startling facts in respect to the
cost and profit of musical instruments sold in
England of foreign manufactures The capital
OF more tnan one music seller in London is
employed in Paris for the making of cheap
pianoforte and harmoniums, which instru-
ments are sold at fifty and one hundred per
cent, profit"
