their annual reunion in Taylor's hall last eve

THEATRE.-The attendance at the theatre last
evening was rather small. The faithful manner
IN which the piece was put upon the stage and
the several characters delineated, deserved full
house. Dollie Bidwell, in the title role of Leah
the Forsaken," displayed to good advantage her
really fine powers for sensational acting, and
Lille Wilkinson and others of the company per-
formed their parts very creditably. The bill Tor
tonight is good one, and this company is sure
to play well any piece it undertakes.

THE PEOPLES CLUB; ANOTHER NOTICE.
The following notice of the Peoples club enter
tainment, Thursday evening, communicated for
the Spy OF yesterday morning, reached us too
late to be inserted. We give it now as the writer
has an intelligent appreciation Of music:
The entertainment at the Peoples club last
evening was one of great merit. Selections were
read by J. S. Rogers, Mr.. Luther, Miss Fitch
and Miss Cora johnson, and gave much satsfac-
ton, particularly The great beef contract" by
Mr.. Rogers, which was quite amusing. In the
musical part of the entertainment the best things
were, the duet "Rubin Ruff by Messrs. Bench
ley and Knight, and II see thee love in every
flower" BY Miss Cutting, ia which her fine So
prano voice appeared to great advantage. "The
Three Fishers" and "I'm but the whitening flow
er, were well sung by Miss Lewis, who has a
contraltO voice of great compass an power, of
which we shall expect much in the future Miss
Hastings, young singer of promise, acquitted
herself finely in "Sing, birdie, sing"
Other selections were listened to with much
pleasure by the large audience, who gave fire.
quent expression of their appreciation. The
piano Accomplishments were by Miss Conant,
and were quite to the satisfaction of the singers,
which is saying much We would suggest to
those having charge of the matter, that ii in flu
ture the musical exercises be upon the platform,
II would be greatly to the advantage of the sing
ers, and pleasure ofthe audience Y.

LECTURE AT MEoHANIs HALL.-Mrs. Victoria
c. Woodruff, the acknowledged advocate and
champion of that most detestable doctrine, free
love- delivered her lecture on the "Impendng
Revolution" at Mechanics hall last evening.
About four hundred people were present, most
of them attracted, doubtless, by the Dotoriety
which the speaker has gained by the outspoken
utterance of her characteristic sentiments, and
the merciless criticism she has received at the
hands OF the press. Shortly before eight she
appeared on the platlorm-a medium sized
woman, clad in a neat black walking dress with
short curly hair, and an intense, nervous face.
After brief introduction, she explained the
Impending revolution" to be that strife for
mastery between the authority, despotsm in
CAPABILITIES and ipjustces of the present, and free
dom, equality, and justice in their broadcast and
perfect sense, based on the proposition that hui
mainly is one. She spoke at length on the diff
ferent forms of despotism, which, in her view,
ensIave humanity. Her remarks met with very
little applause, and it was evident her peculiar
views did not meet the appreciation of her au-
dience.

THE H1sroRY OF A NATIONAL REnEDy.-Here
is the history OF the most celebrated tonic of
tho ago in nutshell. In 1880, 1t was an
nounced that certain combination OF vege-
table ingredients, with pure diffusive sdmu-
liant, was working wonders in the euro Of
chronic dyspepsia. nervous debility. liver
complaint, periodical fevers, rheumatism and
constitutional weakness. The unpretending
nAme given to the specific was PLANTATION
BIrTERs. Tho statement attracted the atten-
tion Of invalids everywhere. The new remedy
received a fair trial, and tho results more
than confirmed all that had been said in its
praise. Thenceforward il was grand success.
The business columns of the press spread the
glorious news far and wide, and tho mar
tyrs to indigestion, biliousness, physical pros
tration aud premature decay. as IL by COM
mon consent, sought relief from the new
vegetable restorative. They found ,ohat Ney
sought. From that time to the present, the
increase in tho demand for Plantation Bittors
has been ono OF the most striking events in
this age.

Tho Geneva Arbitration.

Tho Geneva Arbitration.
The excitement created in Epglsnd by
the claim for consequential damages. on
the part of the United States. before the
Geneva arbitrators. seems to havo abated
somewhat. We hear, at least. Of no vio-
lent and bellioose speeches ss number
of fiery members of Parliament at first
INDUCED in. The London press-the
Times. O6seruer, Daily News and Tele-
graph-are still hammering away upon
the subject, but in o mild. argumenta-
tive way. They affirm emphatically that
it was dist: .tly understood, and so an
nonnced r ,satedly in England before
the agreement to submit to arbitration
was entered into, that the claims for in
direct damages should no. be presented.
The ambiguity Of the terms employed
in the treaty they admit, but hold that
the debates in Parliament last summer,
where, in advocating the ratification of
the treaty, it was time and again asserted
that suoh cluins were excluded, show
the understanding with which England
agreed to the submission. The inten-
tion of one Of the parties. thus orally
expressed prior to the signing of the
agreement, they contend. precludes any
different construction which aregretably
doubtful phraseology might give rise to.
Our Northern exchanges. on the other
hand, uphold with equal zeal the lcgiti-
macy and propriety of the mooted
claims. They rely mainly, and with
good reason. upon the comprehensive
language OF the treaty, in which it is sti-
pulated that al differences, without reser-
vation, which have arisen between the
two countries on account OF the depre.
dations of the Anglo. Confederate
crnisers, shall be submitted for final ad-
Indication before the Geneva tribunal.
In our humble judgment, the whole
question is one which only the Board OF
Arbitrators can properly determine.
The gist of the great pow-wow that has
been raised seems to US simply question
whether or not the international court
has jurisdiction in the premises; whe-
ther it can take cognizanoe of any such
claims as the representatives Of the
United States are urging. The object,
scope and powers of the court must
surely be prescribed in the stipulation.
and 1t is for the judges to say what con-
struction is to be placed on any obscure
or ambiguous language.

The KU K1ux REPORTS Wash.
ington correspondent of the Baltimore
Sun writes, under date of 10Th, as fol.
lows:
''Tbe majority and minority reports
OF the ku Klux committee were submit
ted in each House to-day, and objection
made in both to the views of the mi
nority. on the ground of the severe Ian
guage which it contained towards the
majority and the President, who is in
one portion referred to as the imperial
master while the report and conduct OF
the majority is spoken of ns the grossest
outrage, the foulest oalumny ever perpe-
trdted. etc. The Senate, after brief de-
bate, admitted the report; but in the
House there was quite contest over it,
which resulted in the reception of the
report, provided that its language is not
unparliamentary nor in violation of tie
rules OF the House. 1t did not appear
who was to be the Judge of that. The
reports wore promptly followed by bill
to extend the suspension of the writ Of
ha6eos corpus beyond the present restric-
ton"

THE SOUTHERN PAoIrIc RAILROAD.

The SOUTHERN PACIFIC RAILROAD.
We are glad to see that this important
now proved to be indispensable-wo.
is attracting much attention in the Iif.
ferent States of the South. The Rich.
mond Dispatch has this to say Of the
matter:
The next Congress will be il the
hands Of the South and West, and will
provide for the building of this new
road. It is disgrace to Congress that
it should have allowed its preindices
against the Southern people to influence
it to pass by the best route and build q
road over the worst. But nature is
stronger than congresses. She has had
her revenge this winter. The rioors of
Siberian climate have damaged the
reputation of the present road to such
an extent as that it would take many
snowless winters to restore public conf.
dence in it. When we read of train
delayed for twenty-eight days, or even
Tor ten days. by drifting snow, we un.
derstand that that region must be lind
OF desolation in the winter season. The
Texas route will be free from all obicc.
tions growing out OF a severe climate.
The sooner new road is built, the bet
ter for the country.
