THE DARKIEs AND THE INAUGURATION
BALL.-In the matter Of the inauguration
hall the irrepressible Niger has come up
once more. A darby named Richardson
has informed Mayor Bowen that q number
Of his dusky relatives and friends mediate
coming along here from Philadelphia and
New York to attend the ball, and wants to
know if any objection exists as to their free
and happy amalgamatiou in the dance with
the white folks that may be present. Bowen
replies that any person Of respectable cha
racter and standing in the community who
applies for ticket will not be denied, the
question of color never having arisen in the
committee, and the Ethiopian was forgotten
for the nonce. This, however, will spoil
The whole affair, as the veriest Radicals
have no desire for the proposed amalgama-
ton.
80 an evidence of the determination of
the negroes TO attend the inauguration ball,
one o; them, a scayenger in one of the
wards, has bet 500 that he will be present,
and has put up the money. If some action
Is not taken about the matter in time row
may happen CorreSpondence Herald.

TIE ORDER TO RELIEVE GRANT.--The
NeraM Washington correspondent gives the
following latest development relative to the
order said to have been issued to relieve
General Grant from command when before
Eicksburg:
Some time ago q search was made in
the War Department for that famous order
directing Banks to relieve Grant Of his
command before the capture Of VicksbuTg.
The search at that time proved unaVail!ng,
hut further investigation since has led to
the recovery Of m old letter book of Gene
ral Ealleck, containing al the correspond
euce on the subject, including the order for
the removal Of Grant. The order was
signed by Hallcck, but was Of course in
spired by Stanton, Who ct that time direct
ell al the correspondence Of Halleck. This
is the truth of the whole story. General
Eanks's friends are urging him 20 give all
the papers in his possession on the subject
to the public, but he still refuses to do So"

EXTRAORDINARY DEATH.-The Rangoon
Gazette tells story of a fisherman Of
Prone, who lately met with his death in
the following manner: He had hooked =
small fish, and, wishing to free his hands
for the adjustment of his tackle. placed it
between his teeth. TIE fish made =
spring down his throat and stuck in the
gullet, defying all the fsherman's effortn
TO draw it out. He a. ouce started for
his house TO procure assistance, but On
the way he dropped and died. After his
death it was found that there were several
spines on the back of the fish, and that
the fsherman's efforts to pull it out had
only served to fasten these more firmly in
his throat.

they are continually getting the benefit Of the

ing up an institution peculiarly their own, and
conducted for their benefit.
Third the loans in this Company are as liberal
as other companies, who declare diyiden DIS at the
end of the second, third, ard fourth years; but
this Company at the end of the first and every
year. Thereby the insurer saFes several years

and he never looses his money if no ever pays up
for ONE WHOLE YEAR, whereas in other COM
ranies he has to remain an insurer for several
years, or he looses all the money he has paid
Let the people of Virginia take plain, COM

a story became current among the Con-

to repeat over the fires of their bivouac-
that, on account of his extreame piety,
when their famous chieftain fell, detach-
ment of angels left the heavenly gates to
visit the battlefield and escort the hero's
soul into heaven. The celestial squadron
searched the close strewn plain. but with
out effect. He whom they sought could
not be found. and they returned mourn
fully to heaven to report their want of
success. But 10 behold on arriving
they found the spirit of the immortal
warrior there already. Stonewall Jack
son had made flank march, aid got to
heaven before them.
