WASHINGTON LOCAL PoLITIcs.-The re-
sal, of the registration in the third ward,
Washington, has been most satisfactory to
the Conservatives, as it shows o clear majo-
rity of 655 for the whites Last year the
coiored element largely predominated, and
the result this year is owing largely to the
active, earnest efforts of the whites. lit lis
true, there are o. large number Of white
Radicals in the ward, but giving them q
large margin, if full vote is polled the
Conservatives will have q clear majority of
two or three hundred. The registration for
tie fourth ward commenced to-day at the
City Hall, and thus far the. result has been
highly favorable to the Conservative, ,ele-
ment. This ward elected its Conservative
ticket last year.-Sun. -

A CURIOUS g lsE - -- a most curious oc-.
.currence happened in the Prussian pro
vince of, Posen. Some days ago a poor wo7,
man fell sick, and as she felt she was near
her end, she, sent for the priest: She sub
seouentiy confessed to him THAT about
thirty years ago Having been delivered Of 9
boy She substituted her own child for the
child, Of q Countess, in whose employ she
was. * N either the nurse nor the Countess
became aware Of the exchange, and thus it
until to-day. Her own boy vas
educated as . Count, and has married the
daughter Of q very. proud nobleman, while IL
the real Count, hayinggroWn up in poverty,
went out to service, married, and is now
living not, far from his prlncely estate e, OF
woman said she could not die without con-
Tossing this sin. The priest applied at once
to the authorities, and an investigation has
been commenced. s. =, !, 1.1s h, -

| THE FAsrNEss OF THE LONDON THFAT
RICAL FIELD.-In late letter to the Ora.
matte Chronicle of San Francisco, Mrs
Anna Cora Mowatt Richie, writing from
London, gives US the following insight into
the vastness of the theatrical field of ,ha.
city;
Nothing can give better idea of the
dense population and extent Of London than
the fact that distinguished actors ab>olve
themselves from the fatigue of tour in
the provinces, and gain the same ends, by
merely transferring their performance from
one London theater TO another in a different
locality, where they encounter totally diff
ferent audience. and are welcomed as novel
ties. Mr.. Fletcher, after acting for a long
period at the Lyceum, accepts an engage
ment at tie Adei phi, and finds hilnSeiftread-
ing entirely new ground-qulte among stran.

appearing upon his boards for any number

ard theateT, and the result, according to the
critics. is "the greatest success ever achieved
within the walls OF a theatcr :" Charles
Matthews, after playing SIX months or
more, nightly, at the olympic, becomes a
new feature by simply gliding from the
Olympic stage on the Adeiphi boards. Tie

SMALLPOX IN SAN FKANCIsCO-Says the
San Francisco Times: The books of the
Health O.hce show that there were sixteen
deaths from smallpox in the city, during the
past week. There have been two hundred
and thirty-eiyht genuine cases OF smallpox
reported at the Health Office since the ep-
demic made its appearance-thirtv-> OF
these cases were reported last week. 1t is
estimated by professional men who are COM
petent to judge in this matter, that there are
now in the city in the neighLorh0od Of five
hundred cases of the disease The question
may be asked: why is it that only one-half
Of the cases are reported There is no
doubt that the attending physicians are, in
many instances, to blame for this violation of
the law. They seek to shield their patients
from the dread they seem - entertain of
having yellow flag placed at their doors.
and having their houses placed in quarantine.
In some cases, however. the sick delay send
ing for a physician in hopes that it may
prove not 20 be the dreaded disease. BY
thus delaying. many are exposed and the
disease assumes a corhuent form, from want
of proper treatment. This may, in a meas
ure, account for the large number Of fatal
Cases. and should warn people that human
life should not be leopard zed by their dread
of having it said, They have the smallpox
in that house.
