BEa PARDON SIR!-Our readers will
probably remember reading in the last
issue of the REcoRp, about stolen
bucket, and that Prussion Dutchman
was the unfortunate loser. We have re-
sc lived n very polite note, which our ed
'itoi translated in substance as follows;
That pc had made u very grevious mis-
take III calling him Dutchlnan, that he
did not belong to that class of people but
WAS Hungarian, having displayed his
...qior some tine ago in that army, and
risen to the honorable position of
tain. We are very sorry that such
aid have occurred, and we find that it
ur mistake and his treat, tor he has,
~ hlar, been paid for the bucket. 1t
appslrs he was told " go 10 an Office nd
jointug MIR. Hollands private house, but
he cbtnes and annoys our sanctuln, de-
lnaading coin for something we knew
n(thing about. We hope our Hungarian
II friend will not do SO again.

DEPARTURES.

THEATRE.-Eriday evening Mr.. Lor-
raine had his benefit, and the house was
crowded. We are sorry to say that tine
entire performance met with anything
but satisfaction. The boys play display
ed in the last act, together with the
throwing around among the audience of
dough, ETC., met with considerable dis
appreciation. Such conduct as was ex-
hibited Friday night has a tendency to
injure Mr.. and Mrs. Carter, who have
won quite a reputation in many of their
plays, and the people We're inclined to
help them; but such performances as
passed off at Lorraine's benefit mortified
all present, and the injury to Mr.. and
Mrs. Carter is almost irre parable. The
audience did not blame them, but felt as
if such bosh should not have been al
lowed, and retired in utter disgust. Many
of the people of Phoebe have seen some
frst-class actors and actresses, and are
not disposed to brook such an attempt as
was made on Friday evening. Last
evening the historical tragedy of La Tour
de Nesle was produced for the first time
in Phoebe. The house was decidedly
slim-the inclemcy of the weather, no
doubt being the cause. The play was
the best that has yet been produced here
and the audience left the house fully
satisfied with the evenings amusement

The Press on the San Juan Award.

The Press on the San Juan Award.
LONDON, October 2j.-The award OF
the Emperor William in the San Juan
case is severely commented on by some
Of the London papers. The Times OF
this morning says that the decision OF
the Emperor William of Germany on
the San Juan boundary question is un-
satisfactory, unclear and indecisive, but
We accept with loyal submissiveness.
The Tines also says: We repudiate the
ABSURD and baseless charge that Eng
land intrigued at Berlin with a view OF
modifying the judgment Of the En-
perOr. The Post considers the award
IS damaging to the interest and dlplo-
mate reputation OF England, as was
the award of the general tribunal at
Geneva Il, says the Post, gives the
Say 10 British Columbian waters to the
Cai,el States. This settlement Of the
question hardly tends to improve the
relations now existing between England
and the United States. The Telegraph
and -NscS reserve their criticism. The
&lqiari is silent upon the subject.

NEw YORK, October 24.-The Liberal
and Democratic managers are In daily
receipt Of encouraging letters from all
the Southern States, except South Car
olina, while New York, New jersey,
Indiana, Connecticut and New Hamp>
shire are claimed for Greeley with con-
f;depce. From Ohio assurances multi.
nly that the contest there is close and
doubtful.
Il is estimated here by Democratic
leaders that Greeley's chances depend
on the action OF the old Democrauc
nsrty, and that if it polls its full
Strength he will be elected. They are
satisfied with the numbers and firmness
of the Liberal Republicans.
Governor Hendricks writes from In
diana that Greeley will surely carry
that State. Hon. j. E. Mcdonald, OF
Indiana, expresses the same OPINION
and also that Ohio is by no means sure
for Grant. The Administration party
with Simon Camerons assistance, are
at work corruptiDg the voters OF Ne"

CHICAGO.
The Liquor Law.

CHICAGO, October 25.-An immense
meeting OF Germans was held yesterday
evening in response to call signed
by the Executive Committee Of Musical
and other Societies inviting them to
assemble Tor the purpose OF expressing
their views on the closing of saloons
on Sunday. Excited speeches were
made denouucing the puritans and IA
natics and resolutions were passed de-
claring all temperance Sunday laws to
belong to a by gone age and Infringing
upon the rights guaranteed in the Con-
stitution; that they will in future make
common cause against the restraint Of
individual freedom, and appointing q
committee to put up ticket TO repre-
sent their cause.
Two large meetings were held last
night by the friends of temperance.
Speeches were made by leading clergy
men and committees were appointed to
get up temperance ticket.
The Lyndon Divorce Trial
is concluded. The bill IS dismissed
and the defendant takes an appeal. The
matter is now buried unless the par
ties in the meanwhile effect a recon-
ciliation andSgo together voluntarily:
Lyndon is the coachman who married
the young daughter Of his wealthy en-
ployer. By its result thus far he is
allowed to retain her.
General John A. Logan
addressed very large audience at the
West Side Rink this evening. He is
also in the city tomorrow, Monday and
Tuesday evenings.
Charles l.. Wilson,
proprietor and editor of the E'ening
Journal has been summoned to appear
before the Illinois Supreme Court at
Ottowa, and show cause why he should
not be committed for contempt, as con.
tanned in an editorial in that paper
September "a, commenting on the fact
that the Court granted suDersedeas in
the case of the murderer Rafferty,. The
main point is as follows: "The opinion
is very general in this city that Judges
Of the Supreme Court Of Illinois are
doing more to encourage murder and
other high crimes than all other agen-
cies and influences combined"
The Horse Disease.
No more disease prevails among the
horses OF Chicago. DR.. Ranch, the
sanitary superintendent, after visiting
all the principal stables in the city, has
come to the conclusion that no symp-
toms of the malady have as yet ap-
peared, and no serious apprehenslons
need be entertained.
Hon. Schuyler COlfax
has been in this city to- day, en- route tor
Milwaukee, where he will speak this
evening.

A Despotie Arrest.

United States Commissioner Dsven'
port condescended on Thursday to hear
little testimony in the Heinrich case,
but soon became confused at the ques'
tions OF Heinrich's counsel regarding
his despotic arrests, and refusal to ac-
cept bail, and adjourned the case fo'
one week. Heinrich's counsel de-
manded an immediate investigation,
but Davenport said, 81 am not going on
with this case till l am ready. Whether
I said one or ten or more days to pro,
duce witnesses or papers is a matter
which intend to govern myself. This
announcement created considerable sem
sstion in the crowded Court room.
The only witness examined was Stahl,
the Deputy, whose questions Mr.. Helm
rich refused to answer. Before Stahl
was sworn he held a private consulta'
ton in the Court with Davenport. Here
is a question from Stahrs cross-exami-
nation:
Question-Did you tell Mr.. Heinrich
the object Of your visit before you ask.
ed him questions about his name and
age?
Witness-I did not; but when he
refused, said was appointed TO verify
the registry. He replied that he had
already sworn to what he had answered,
when his name was placed on the regis
try, and he would not answer any other
anestions. He then made me 60 out
He did not assault me.
@. Where did you receive your in
structions as marshal?
Witness--In Concordia Hall, head
quarters of the Republicans.
@. Were you in Commissioner Dav-
enport's private office this morningp
Witness-I was.
O. While you were in Commission
er Davenports private office did you
talk to any person about this case2
Witness-I talked over the facts in
this case OF Mr.. Davenport in his pri'
vate office.
y. During an entlre hour
Witness-I can't say the time l was
inside.
Commissioner Davenport-l adjourn
the case.
Mr.. Hirsoh-I hope your Honor will
not postpone the case until alter the
election.
Commissioner Davenport-Mr. Hir-
sob, your remarks are certainly un-
called for, inssmuch as | have ad-
iourned the case until next Thursday.
Mr.. Heinrich then lett with his
friends.
Both Heinrich and Hussey, arrested
in their own houses by Davenport, are
old and respectable citizens and Gree
ley men. The offenses for which they
were dragged from their homes is al
legged impertinence. Against neither is
there any charge Of wrongful registra-

THE HORSE DISEASE.
Its Spread In New York.

New YORK, October 25.-The horse
disease has at last succeeded in afflict-
ing more or less every horse belonging
to the horse Car railroads, stage lines,
express companies and other freight
and passenger lines in the city. At q
rough estimate there appears to be
about sixteen thousand horses sick in
the city, with an equal number in
Brooklyn, of which three per cent are
in dangerous condition. The valua-
BILE trotting stock here have also been
visited. Dan Mace's horses are nearly
all afflicted. The celebrated doubl e.
team Darkness and Plimpto and the
valuable colt Ethan Allen, valuable
at $4,000, are being treated by the
doctors. The valuable Hambletonian
mare, worth $4,000, belonging to
the Wheeler d Wilson stables, is dang
erously afflicted Bonner and Wander
bilts horses have thus far escaped.
New YORK, October 25.-The horse
disease is much worse to-day and the
symptoms more alarming 1t is re.
ported to night that ninety of the fire
horses are sick and two
hundred and fifty in the hospital unfit
foh duty. Car horses that have been
worked during the last few days in
condition were getting worse. The
number Of trips on every line in the
city are still further reduced tonight.
Many milkmen's and bakers horses
have taken i'll and others are delivering
goods without wagons or horses. The
Twenty. y.fourth street stage line has
stopped running altogether. All the
stage stables give gloomy reports Of
sick stock. The disease has apparently
not reached the worst point.
LEWISTON, Ne, October 25.-Several
hundred horses in this vicinity are sick
with the horse disease, but few fatal
cases have been reported.
AUGUSTA, Me, October 25.-The
horse disease has made its appearance
in this city and large number of cases
have been reported, only one Of which
has proved fatal.

Shall Dogs Earn their Living:

The Directors OF the French Society
for the Prevention Of Cruelty to AMI
mails have split upon q very important
point, which seems to get every day
further from settlement than ever. The
bone of conteution-an old simile, but
highly proper in the present connection
is, whether dogs should be required
to work or not. One wing OF the So
ciety lays down the theory that idleness
is as injurious to dogs as men, and that
there is no just reason why dogs should
not earn their living at any rate; while
the other and more tender-hearted
party, who seem to believe that dogs
were created more for ornament than
use, insist that their divine right to
dose in the sun and nip the legs OF
psssers-by shall not be bounded or cur
tailed. The discussion WAKES hot, and
meanwhile the dogs wait.

a Wholesale Poiscner.

There is a woman in the North Of
England with the unpoetic name Mary
Ann Cotton, who has achieved distinc-
ton as q taker off of human beings
hardly surpassed. Lucrezia Borgia
was once credited with greatness in this
line, but it has latterly been shown that
that greatness has been thrust upon her
and that she really was an intellectual,
accomplished and virtuous lady, such as
any other intelligent maiden might
aspire to be. This Mary Ann, however,
it is said, has already disposed of her
mother, three husbands, fifteen children,
and a lodger. These people have all
died in the same house with her, and
of course it is no more than fair to give
her the credit OF it.

The Geneva Watchmake kers.

Ralph Keeler, in Harper's Magazine
for November, writes as follows: Gene
va has so long been the watch factory
of the world that little need be said on
the subject. From four TO five thou.
sand men are constantly engaged in
making watches. Two or three thou :
sand more are employed in making
musical boxes. In the absence Of sta
tistics it is supposed that 10000
watches are now made in Geneva every
year. The work is separated into
many departments. The uatchnakers,
so called those who make the
works of the vatches-are the steadi-
eat class. They have no trades-union.
The case-makers are freer spirits, and
have trades union, as do the jewelers.,
engravers and ensmelers. All of these
latter command higher wages than the
watchmakers, and, having more temp
tation, are more given to beginning the
week on Wednesday, after leisurely
epree. A matchmaker averages about
six francs, or nearly a dollar and a
quarter a day. jewelers., engravers
and enamelers can make q little
more than that. But such are
the habits of all these four latter
classes that they do not average
more than the six francs q day OF the
watchwork maker. There are no very
large watch factories in Geneva; that
is, the workmen are rarely collected in
one building. The independence ofthe
whole class is indicated by the fact that
they generally work at home. Where
a quaint old house reaches out for light
many windows high above the
dinginess OF its narrow court, you may
be sure that the proud ruler OF the little
is there with his matchmaking
or engraving tools. He and bis brethren
who make music>boxes and singing
birds, and the other industrious deni.
zens Of the ST. Gervais quarter, are
the rulers of this little Republic, be-
cause they are the backbone OF the
Radical party, and the Radical party is
the backbone Of the Liberal or lnde-
pendent party, which rules the city and
the canton. 1t is these people who,
under the lead of James Fazy, in lS43,
brought the aristocrats OF the upper
city to terms, and made them pay for
the powder and ball with which they
did it. They work and think, and rule
one OF the best, and apparently one Of
the least, governed cities in the world.
