regret to announce the death of Colonel
Samuel e. Langley, proprietor of the popu-
lar Waverly restaurant, which event oc.
CURED yesterday at the Waverly, on Eighth
street, between + and + streets. Colonel
Langley was well-known to host of our
citizens as a whole-souled, genial gentleman,
and polite and accommodating host. He
was formerly resident Of Manchester, N.
H., and had many warm friends from the
New England States; In fact his house had
become sort of headquarters for the New
Englanders In town.
Colonel Langley was at one time colonel
Of the 9Th New Hampshire regiment, serving
his country faithfully until III health forced
him to resign. Subsequently, he opened the
Wayerly House, where he has been located
for the past seven years. He was the agent
Of the Amoskeag manufacturing company,
and through him the corporation purchased
the steam fire engines now used by the city
department.
Ills death will be deeply regretted by the

THE GOVERNMENT PRINTING OFFICE
Business Is brisk at this Institution at this
time, and the exciting question agitating the
minds OF the employees is Who are to be
the Gins" aud who the "outs ." All sorts Of
rumors are afoat as TO who will be the sue
cessful candidates for the several prominent
positions In the Office, but Mr.. Clapp, the
superintendent, has not, as yet, publicly
limited at what he proposes 10 do. II Is
generally supposed that Mr.. Lathrop, the
foreman Mr.. Woodward, the assistant fore.
man; Mr.. Franzoul, superintendent Of the
job ONCE, will be dismissed.
Anumber Of gentlemen have been named as
the successors Of these lncumbcnts. Among
the "slates" which have been made, the fol-
lowing Is the one which is supposed correct ;
Col. Otis, Of the proof-room, as foreman;
Mr.. Flynn, now q compositor Of the Office,
as assistant foreman, and Mr.. Shanklin, Of
| the Job ofiice, to succeed Mr.. Franzoni. For
| the position of superintendent OF the bindery
Messrs. Jonn Tretler, Columbus ]. Donham
and Jos. Mattingly are named. The sus-
pense Of all these gentlemen will be ended
on Saturday, when Mr.. Clapp will probably
| announce his "slate." There are now about
two hundred printers at work In the Office;
but as the busy season must soon pass, the
work Of setting down men to be furloughed
has already commenced. In the folding
department yesterday twenty-five OF the
female employees were furloughed, and II Is
| probable that more will have to be fnrloughed
| within week or two.

PRIZE FIGHT ON A SMALL SCALE.-A prize
fight came of yesterday morning In the
alley on Sixth street, between Pennsylvania
avenue and Missouri avenue, between two
boot-blacks, named Robert Holmes and Wal
lis Curtis. Holmes was seconded by Joseph
Ross, and Curtis by Isaac Jackson. Ten
rounds were fought; Curtis drawing first
blood, and Holmes first knock down. At
the end Of the tenth round the fight was de-
clared q draw. In the course OF half an
hour the parties returned TO the alley aud re-
neWod the combat, when four rounds were
fought. On the fourth round Wallis Curtis
was declared the victor, when the party pro-
ceeded 10 the pump on Sixth street and
dressed their wounds and removed the blood.
1t appears the difficulty arose from a dls-
pute as to who was the Tightful party TO
black u pair Of boots, when IL was decided
that they would settle the dispute according
to the rules OF the prize ring. About twenty
boot-blaGks Witnessed the fight. Noarrests.

Mr.. II. said he sought the good Of tho
cause, and did not intend 70 say anything
which might hurt Republication. He con-
tended that he was an old citizen, aud that
old citlscns were as good Republicans as the
new comcrs. lie said this much because at
former meeting reflections had been cast
upon the fidelity OF the Republicans because
they were old citizens.
Mr., q. W. Hatton said that he had not Luz
tended, In his remarks on last "Wednesday
night, to reflect upon any loyal Republican,
but that hls remarks had reference TO the
contemplated ''cltlxens' ticket dodge"
There were . small number OF Republicans
In this city who wero working for the defeat
OF the party at the coming election, and he
traitors 10 the cause.
Major Morse, being called for, counseled
harmony, and said that Il made no difference
whether men were old or new citizens, so
they were true TO the Republican cause.
The opponents Of the party might get up as
many citizens tickets rs they chose they
would not succeed, because the Republican
party was better organized aud stronger In

A Novel Goose Race.

The Omaha Republican has the following &C
count of a :. goose race that came of in that
city Over 1000 people gathered ON the banks
above the pond and along the W end Of Farm
ham street, to witness Bob Hart and Sully in
their great wash-tub goose feat. Promptly at the
advertised time Hart made his appearance, follow
ed by his competitor for the golden peanut offered
by Col. Hanford. Each sat in an ordinary wash
tub. TO which was attached six pair of geese,
driven and guided with an ordinary carriage whip.
The most deafening applause, shouts, and yells
greeted the contestants as they were towed into
the pond. Striking the Farnham street bank,
both started side by side, talking to and urging
on the feathered racers the same as a jockey
would do in n trial of speed among horses. Half
way across the pond Sully's team switched odand
bolted for the woods, giving Bob the lead by three
and a half lengths. Recovering his course, Sully
made splendid Roadway, gaining rapidly on the
Hart outfit. One of his geese, however, attempt
ing TO dive kicked a rear goose in the eye. The
kicked bird at once cackled his defiance, and soon
demoraliZed tie entire team, to such an extent
that victory was impossible.-Hart would have
come in 90 X" only for his "wheel geese
banking badly and upsetting the tub. Sully be-
gan laughing at his opponents disaster, when his
team made a sudden right flank movement, which
left the driver laundering in the mud. The as
sembled multitude yelled the louder at the acct
dents. Righting their crafts, both parties made
for shore, leading their teams. Bob took the prize.

Negroes and the Chinese.

Russell, - who is writing letters to the Bos-
ton 1raceler from the Battle Fields of the South,
furnishes the following intelligent view of negro
sentiment toward the coming Chinese. He says:
When We We're at Corinth, Miss, the question
OF introducing Chinese labor and driving out the
negroes, was agitated by the planters. One old
darkey with whom we fell into conversation
seemed to take it much at heart, and incurred of
us If we supposed that 's dem Chinesemens would
come, nohow." We told him we thought that
some of them might come, but did not think that
their work would fill the place of negro labor.
"Its JUS here, massa,'' said he, throwing his
long arms about in a wild way. 81 hain't seen
nary Chinesemens in all dis life. But I've heerd
dat dey has tails like de a~lligators on de top oh
de back side oh dar heads, and dat they list saws
TO dis ting be thou doned and it am dun. and Ise
OBJ de pinnion dat de Chinesemens desc secesh are
after am de berry debil hisself what am ter lib
on de earth morn a thousand year. He can't
come nigh unto dis chile, nohow. I'll fight him.
III scratch him, III shoot him, III fro ebryting
L hab In his face, I'll trod on his tail, IN hab
my milf wild him if he turns to birthstone an
burns ebry har from off my ole head dat | will.
III take dis var ole hoe an IN jab him afoe and
ahlnd, an so dorter do de whole of de humane
family an expostulate him from dis var land.
What kin de Chineseman do wild dis hard sile ?
Muffin whatever. De corn will curl up, de cot
ton will SINCE aloe him as dough he was a coal of
Gbbin, shining fire."
But how do your ~neighbors feel about ita"
inquired we.
Lor, lor, Dey hab jist tarmined ter meet at
der ole meetin house an dar organize a cullud
army. An wese gown to choose dc preacher
capn, and den We'll go inter 'em prain and
preachin."
But what if praying and preaching will not
do the work ?' said we.
why den We take de whole subject inter our
own hans, an We'll bump 'em up an down till de
day of doom if dey don't lebe us in peace on de
land of our forcfadders. Dey is imps oh de
debil, an our parson knows it, and de sooner dey
be terminated de better fur all pussons OBJ color.
De Lord hab mercy on all dat come inter dis
county? Deyll be busted, nohow."

q proposition is to be made before the coming
Hcumenical council to unite the Greek and
Catholic churches, on the ground that they are
one in doctrine, and that their disciplinary differ
ence can be reconciled by means of mutual con-
cessions. 1t is well known among theologians
that the principal obstacles to the union of these
churches were in relation to the GHiogue in the
creed or the procession of the Holy Spirit from
the second Persons of the Blessed Trinity and
to the supremacy of the Pope but in all else, the
two churches are one in doctrine and usares. a
cardinal will publish the distinctive pecuiiarities
of the Greek church before the council. Should
this union be effected catholicity will suddenly
receive an accession of sixty millions of converts.
The opening Of the Suez canal, in October next.
connecting the Mediterranean and Red seas, will
be O matter of international interest. Two hun
dred of the principal journalists Of Europe have
received invitations from the Viceroy of Egypt to
be present at the inaugural ceremonies, and NJ.
de Lesseps, in response to a request made by the
Pacha for a list of the most prominent newspa-
pers in the United States, has sent to his ROYAL
Higness the names of about twenty American
journals whose editors will be requested to attend.
All the expenses of invited members of the press
will be betrayed by the Viceroy. A steamer will
leave Boston for Port Said and return, to accomo-
date all who may wish to witness the ceremonies.
SEA WEED.-A French agriculturist proposes
that the vessels occupied during the summer in
cod fishing, should in other seasons be employed
in collecting and transporting to the Azores the
sea weed which is to be found in large quantities
west of those islands. The sea weed, it is ass ert-
ed, covers in dense masses a space seven times
larger than all Germany. Analysis has dis
covered that these weeds possess the same fertil-
izing qualities as the weeds employed for manure
on the coasts of France. The vessels, il is pro-
posed, shall convey these marine plants to the
Azores, where they could be pressed and dried.
and the potash and other salts extracted. These
meadows, it is estimated, will produce
every year a sufficient matter to manure over
] $50, 00O, 900 acres.
