Hotel Messr5. Rivers & Foley have taken
lease on the property for ten years, and
promise to keep iirst-class hotel in every

famous in the public entertainment line.
Next to Washington, New Orlens has the
reputation of having the worst hotels in the
United States. We have never had any

secondrate in New York or Chicago. There

rally, profitable to the managers We wish

The New York Word confesses to
great difficulty in holding itself OH &C
count of the outrage in Philadelphia by
which the United States marines kept the
peace and insured decent election. The
World will suffer still greater internal VIC
lence when the precedent established
over the rowdes in Pennsylvania is re-
peated in New York But we have every
assurance that it will pass the crisis with
a whole skin and full head OF hair.
Men do not risk their precious lives to
fight for rascality. They swagger before
the hour of trial comes, but When justice
and law erect their landmarks they back
out as the rowdies in Philadelphia did.
And the people rejoice at the success OF
honesty and the defeat of villainy.

in New York, on the eighth, for having
registered in three different wards.
Leary was not even naturalized. This is
proper occasion for the World to fly
into passion again at the insolence OF
the United States in interference with the
feedom of elections. Locking Quinn and
Leary up, was equal to putting six voters
in prison, for they lad already registered
three times apiece, and only the sachems
of Tammany can tell us how many more
times they intended to register.

A Washington special of the seventeenth
instant to the Cincinnati Gazette, SAYS:
The President has been very busy o-day
in consultation concerning the changes mode
necessary by the retirement of Secretary
Cox. 1t seems that Immediately after his
resignation was received and accepted, the
position was rendered to Mr.. Deiano, who
agreed to accept 1t provided he could have
the privilege of naming successor Tor the
Commissioner Of Internal Revenue, SO as to
insure his numerous friends in the bureau
and especially in Ohio, against removal
Mr.. Boutwell, very naturally desired TO be
consulted III the matter, and 1t at once be
came apparent that his ideas in regard to "a
commissioner. and those of Mr. Delano. did
not agree. The latter wishes the President
to appoint General Il. Il. Cowan, now Su-
pervisor OF Southern Ohio, and in consulta-
ton to-day the President was strongly in
clined to make the appointment. In case
he does, the Presidents near friends assert
that it will involve n direct break with Sec
rotary Boutwell,. They also declare that
the President has already taken some steps
looking to a change in the Treasury De-
partment before the meeting of Congress.
1t has come to light that Senator Fickers,
of Mary land. made deed in Washington,
last spring. conveying one square foot of
ground to ninety-four citizens of Chester
town, Kent county, with view to enable
the grantees to vote Mt tho local elections
about being held there last spring. This
gave each voter little over one square inch
of estate, yet carried them outside of the
State law with regard to freeholders. A
colored Republican, however, resorted to
The same tactics among his own friends, and
defeated the ambitious schemes of the SEN
ator, as the colored vote gave the election
to the Republicans.

A large lot of walnut lumber was re-
ceived at Cincinnati last week from the
South, and we shall soon have an invoice
of beds, bureaus and armoirs sent back to
the South for sale This is taking advan-
taoe Of nature that we allow our walnut
to be sold for penny to Cincinnati in
order that we may buy it back for dol
lar, What did nature put walnut timber
here for if she did not intend that we
should use what we needed, and if we had
any to spare to sell that? As it is easier
to bring the labor here than it is TO ship
the lumber away and then bring back the
furniture, why do we not import the fur
niture- maker instead of the furniture ?

MRS. SI0DoNs.-Mrs. Scott Siddons, who is
to favor our citizens with reading at Portland
Theatre on Saturday evening, is thus spoken
of by the New York Express:
Her histrionic talent is of a high order. She
has not the physique of Fanny Kemble or the
extraordinary power of that remarkable wO-
man. She is q prettier Hernia, more lively
and agile Puck, but she could not be SO robust
and emphatic Bottom as that other inheritor
of English fame upon the stage. Aud yet,
while there is less versatility in her action,
there is no failure in conception. She has the
genius of the drama and in the range of parts
fully apprehends all. Nature has not designed
her for the strong masculine presentations.
though she does more with them than would
be guessed from her natural advantages, but
she has all the more grace for the womanly.
Her appointments on the stage, even to the
piano Accomplishments, are carefully prepared
and show fine appreciation of dramatic eff
fects. The rendering was altogether an admi-
rable treat

PORTLAND THEATRE.-Those of our readers
who have ever had the good fortune to see JEFF
ierson MS Rip Van Wrinkle would have been
S'f0ek last evening by the faithfulness of the
copy presentea~ AZ John Murray. And
when we say copy we use the word In no in
vidious sense, for who is there that would not
prefer an excellent copy to poor original a
fine chrome TO miserable daub. While Mr..
Murray lacks the mobile features, the keen
blue eye and unstudied grace of Jefferson yet
he has so far caught the peculiar elocution and
the stage business of the part as delineated by
that celebrated actor that at times you can
hardly believe he is not before you. And what
temperance lesson is conveyed by the vaga-
bond Rip, whose strange mixture of pathos and
dry humor of recklessness and affection at one
time move you to tears and at another provoke
shouts of laughter. We trust that every one
who can will attend the theatre tonight, for it
is rarely that so grand piece of acting is wit
messed in this city. Miss Orion was very good
as Gretchen and the remaining characters
were su Efficiently we'll taken albeit. the actors
have very little to do. The little Miss Chase
made quite hit as Rips child. A few more
plays OF this kind would help redeem the stage
from the burlesque conditio n into which it has
of late, fallen.

Horror.
A Whole City in Mourning.

RICHMOND, April GA terrible calamity
occurred here this morning. The floor of the
Court OF Appeals in tho State Capitol, gave
way and pIecipitated the hundreds gathered
there to hear tho decision in the Mayorality
case of Ellison and Chahoon upon the Con-
servative caucus then sitting in the hall of the
House of Delegates below. 1t is impossible to
ascertain the extent of the injuries at this hour.
Among the killed are p. fl. Aylett, distin-
tinguished lawyer, DIR. j. b. Brock, reporter
of the Enquirer d Examiner, Samuel Baton,
clerk to Mayor Cahoon, Capt VIM, A. Char
ters, chief of the fire department, Asa Levy, a
Richmond merchant, N. 2. Howard, lawyer,
Chas. Watson of the Danville railroad, Hugh
Hutchinson and Levi N. Webb of this city,
VIM. Schofeld, brother of Gen. Schofeld, r.
H. Money, Jr., Senator Bland, coIored, and
Powhattan Roberts 1t is supposed that 20
members of the State Legislature are killed
and wounded. The Judges of the Court of
Appeals all escaped nnhurt. Ex-GOv. Wells
was badly hurt; L. III. Chandler, counsel for
Cahoon on the mayoralty case, was injured;
James Mason and Judge Meredith, counsel for
Ellison, were also badly hurt. About 200 were
hurt by the accident. The greatest excite
the capitol square, weeping and wailing as the
dead and dying are brought from the building
Gov. Walker escaped unhurt, though on the
court room floor at the time.
Directly after the disaster occurred the fire
alarm was used to give notice and the hook
once to the spot For three hours the scene
was full of horror. Minute after minute there
appeared, swung out by a rope tied around the
middle of body, some popular favorite, who
after being swung on the top of the shoulders
Of one of the fire brigade, mangled and dead,
were brought down the ladder into the green
OF the public park where it was instantly sur
rounded by 1000 or 5000 of those who had gath
cred to recognize the slain. The park was
filled with weeping women and anxious men,
Cctn l.avr vI,N,, Lat
from the building. After this the police closed
the park and refused admittance to any one.-
The bodies of the dead having been sent out all
the stores in the city were closed and placards
put upon the doors, "Closed in consequence of
the disaster at the capital" No more business
was done during the day. Tonight meetings
have been held Of members of the press associ-
alton, members of the late military organiza-
ton, citizens generally. Tomorrow will be
observed as day of general mourning.
The court was about to deliver its opinion in
favor OF Ellison, one of the judges dss ,nting
when tho floor fell.
