FaT Thursday evening we had the
pleasure of listening to some very fine
music given US by the Parkhurst Troupe
OF Mr.. Parkhurst it is unnecessary to
speak at any length, as he is already ia
vorably known in this region. He gave
us several songs in his unapproachable
comic style, narrowing our feelings with
the tragical fates of"Dooden, dee -doo," and
"Clementine" Mr. Graves accompani-
ments were performed with taste and feel
ing, but We are sorry that he did not have
an instrument upon which he could have
had an opportunity of displaying his skill
to good advantage. Every body was
charmed with Mr.. Rickey's voice and ex
pressive manner of rendering his songs
We heard lady say he was "divine," and
are not disposed to contradict the asser
ton. We predict success for this com
pany, ms it will not only command adrni-
ration lut win friends.

Washington Items.

WASHINGTON, June % The Sen.
ate, in executive session to day, son
/ firmed the nomination of Byron q
Daniels, Assessor of Internal Rev
enue for New Mexico.
After some discussion as to the
desirability of taking immediate
action on the San Domingo treaty, a
motion 10 open the doors and resume
legislative business prevailed by a
vote of 81 to %. This is considered
decisive of the fate Of the treaty.
The President sent to the Senate
the following nominations:
T.. E. Douglas, United States Mar
shal for the Northern District of Ala
bama; John @. Burton, Assessor Of
Internal ReYenue for the Fourth In
diana District.
The statement that Gen. Sherman
ordered the dispossession of the col
ored squatters in York county, Va 4.
is untrue, and all action, however ia
ken, was in April last at the desire Of
Governor Walker. expressed to the
President, TO notify General Candy to
aid the civil authorities If the case
warranted the need Of soldiers.
Neither has any such dispossession or
fjeetment taken place.
The great revenue case pending be-
fore the treasury Department since
September, 1869. mas reached another
stage in its solution.
The l .409 barrels of whisky are in
possession of Platte & Newton, aud
owned by Horace Webster a. Co,
Boyle. Miller & Co., and GuiD, Hater-
HOPPER & Co., of New York. The
charge made against the whisky by
the officers seizing the same was that
while the packages had on tax paid
aud warehouse stamps, they needed
also the stamp of the recti6er. In
other words the officers claimed the
whisky to be rectifed, and it rested
upon the claimants to prove the con-
trary.
This was done several months ago
in the case of Webster & Co. who
had 800 barrels released, the balance
being held for further Investigations
with other lots. Now an order to
release 1,609 barrels, seized in the
possession of Dewitt. Kittle Il Co.,
has been issued, end the balance in
the possession Of Platt Il Newton, be-
longing to the parties before named,
is held for further testimony. The
in this case have no doubt of
the release Of all in good time.
