mouth to mouth, and admirers Of Judge
Lynch speak of rope, tar and feathers OF
similar institutions. Thursday evening,
about four o'clock, a man who uses the
name Peter Richardson, not beautiful to
look on, passed along st. Peter street,
and when in front OF No. oe
halted, in maudlin way, and began
to caress little Alice Marc, whose parents
live in the house mentioned. Alice is TWEEN
ty-twosmonths old; a sister nine years Older
was attending her. When the elder daught
er discovered the man fondling the baby
she raised an alarm, by which time Rich
ardson had nearly reached Bourbon street,
when Mrs. Marc and other persons started
in hot pursuit. Officer Wallace arrested
and took him before Recorder Staes, and
the mother made an affidavit. Messrs
Rouse and Thebert assert that they
witnessed the transaction. Accused say!
he is a stranger here, and intended no harm
TO the infant, but that he had been drinking
freely. The case will be examined by Re
corder Staes.

along the length of the road, runs, also,
around the pulley wheel ut the other end;
and thus, when the engine sets its pulley
wheel in motion the rope runs up one SIDE
of the track and down the other.
The car has three traction wheels, lin adj
dition to the car wheels), ranged on one
side, the traction rope passing under the
end wheels and over the middle one, and as
the rope moves along it carries the car Win
it, The traction wheels do not touch the
ground
In the exhibition yesterday there was q
delay, owing to the giving away oil the
wheel; but, when that was adjusted, the
car moved along at a speed somewhat faster
than the usual speed Of a mule, ana there
seems no reason why Il greater speed conld
not be attained. 1t is claimed that success
sion of cars can be run on the same traction
rope. and there appears to be no doubt that
this is So
The method of traction has never been
used on a road OF any great length, and
there are no proved conclusions as to what
extent of road the tranction system might
be applied. The difficulty, if any, would be
liability to breakage in the rope.
There will be, no doubt, further exhibl-
tons of this proposed method OF traction,
which will give every one interested an op-
portunity to form a Judgment on its merits
OF it's feasibility there is little doubt, and
if successful on any road, it will certainly
| be more economical than the present mule
| system. Its applicability to the various
| turnings incident to city railroad tracks re
| mains to be seen.

Eeninn Operations With Kiel.

ST. PAUL, Minnesota, May l2.-The Press
publishes letter from Duluth, which says
great excitement is created there by the ar
rival of q large body of armed Fenians en-
route to the aid of Riel ct Red River. The
letter says: Each man is well armed with
a breech-lo .ding rife, revolver and knife.
Their plans, of which they made no secret,
are to go northward from here to Rainy Lake
or river, via Vermiliion Lake, over the route
lately travelled by DR.. ShuLtz. Their hrst
stroke will be the capture of Fort Francis,
on Rainy Lake, which will be garrisoned by
a few men, while the main army will harrass
and dispute the passage of the British troops
through the rivers, swamps and mountains.
from Fort William to Red River.
At the proper time they will march down
and Join Riel's forces. One party has already
started overland by the Vermillion road,
and another will soon follow, and third is
preparing to go to the same destination in
canoes by way Of the St. Louis and Vermillion
rivers.
Another large force is reported at superior
river. They will march directly west to
Red River, over the travelled roads, crossing
the Mississippi at Crows Wing. The forces
here are all said to be commanded by dis
tlnguished Confederate officer, who success
fully fought General Banks in the Red River
Campaign in Louisiana. The men are nearly
all eX.sOldiers, and are stalWart, hardy fel.
lows, who seem to rejoice in an opportunity
to strike John Bull.
Many\ French Canadians accompany
them, and they have secured the services
of several Indians and half breed guides,
and one or two old employees of the Hudson
Bay Company, who are perfectly familiar
with the country to be operated in.
The Press does not vouch for the truth OF
this intelligence.
Ex-Governor Marshall just returned from
Red river, reports everything quiet. Riel is
acknowledged master of the situation, and
is expecting news from Canada favorable tc
the demands of the provisional govern
nent.
The scourge of grasshoppers which devas
tated the settlements two years ago, is again
very abundant.

= CuR EECTiON.

A statement having been made in the pub
lished proceedings of the Council, on the
eighteenth instant, that q Mr. jenkins, wood
and coal inspector. had issued certificates
to the dealers of wood and coal (for which
he charged twenty-five cents), is both false
aud calumniOus.
Mr.. jenkins issued no certificates for coal
whatever. With regard to wood, not more
than fifteen cents per load, or one-half
cord, was charged by him, and for the con-
venence o. the more respectable class OF
dealers, after an inspection Of their wood
and carts, ak to ten certificates each were
issued to three or four of them, to be used
as they required, without embarrassment to
their business. This plan was approved by
the Inspector of the first division. Except
at the Old and New basins, where each cart
would pass the Office door of the inspector,
it would be obviously impracticable to carry
strictly into effect the provisions of the law.
The ordinance is not only unwise, but i'm
practic 4ble. j.
