such as We see annually, hut one Of the most
pleasing and unique exhibitions eNer exhibited
to the American people. Aside from its
highly moral, classical features, presenting to
the view Of the spectator a perfect counter
part of the sports and pastimes of the ancient
Roman and Greek festivals, it is relieved by
many innovations of athletes, etc, of the
modern circus, and forms. altogether, the
most pleasing and attractive travelling combi-
nation ever seen in this country. In fact 1t is
a fac simile Of Barnum's world renowned Hip
podrome, which careful reading of the adver-

prehend And yet the admission TO all parts
OF this grand and gorgeous exhibition is only
fifty cents for adults and twenty-five cents for

the morning or afternoon exhibitions.

There has been change in the clerkship
of the United States District Court, Judge
Durell, Mr.. Charles Claiborne having re-
tired from the desk. This vacancy was
filled by the appointment of Colonel T. w.
De Klyne, late deputy marshal under
Marshal Packard. The event was yester-
day celebrated in a quiet way, the new
clerk informing his most intimate friends
by inviting them to partake of some deli
cate refreshments iu his private office, said
seasonables being manipulated by smiling
William Murphy, the peoples postmaster,
of Decatur street. The Colonel, though a
young and modest gentleman, has made
thousands of warm friends by his excellent
conduct, no matter where business called
him, and he, as deputy warshal, has been
placed in numerous trying situations. Hav-
ing successfully passed through considera-
BILE hard work he is now rewarded with a
position which will not 60 often bring him
before the public. Marshal Packard's loss
Judge Durell's gain. The appointee has
assumed his new position, receiving the
hearty congratulations Of hosts of friends.
The occasion was improved by two of his
daily companions presenting him with neat
tokens of their regards.
Mr.. Packard has not filed the vacancy
made by the resignation Of Colonel De
Klyne, he. for the present, performing the
duties of that office himself.

WASHINGTON, June 3-The Senate to- day
passed the consular and diplomatic and
pension appropriation bills, and then dis
cnssed, without action, the question Of
cheap transportation.
The Senate passed the House bill to
amend the charter of the Freedmen's Saw
ings and Trust Company. It provides that
within ten days after it's enactment. the
Controller of the Currency shall appoint
three commissioners, who, under his direc-
tiop land control of the Secretary of the
Treasury shall take possession of the
banks and all assets of the bank and its
ness of said bank and branches, and nav
into the United States Treasury all moneys
realized therefrom. The Controller of the
Currency shall declare and pay dividends
as results may justitO. The commissioners
are to receive as salary $4,000 per annum
each, and give bonds of $25, 600 each. 1t is
provided, however, that if in the progress
of winding up the commissioners and Con-
troller Of the Currency shall at any time be
OF the opinion that the bank can resume
under it's old charter, they may, with the
consent of the Secretary Of the Treasury,
turn it over to the board of trustees, who
shall then resume their present powers.
In the Senate to-day Mr.. WINDOWS cheap
transportation resolution was discussed at
some length, and will be continued to-mor-
row.
In the House the bill extending to the
third of March. 1875, the time for present.
ing claims to the Southern Claims COmmis-
siOners, came up for action. 1t was amend
ed by providing for two additional commits
sioners. An amendment offered by Mr..
Cobb, of North Carolina, to extend the
jurisdiction to claims for the OccuDatiOn of
buildings and grounds in the Southern
States by the army or navy of the United
States, was rejected by tie vote-lll yeas
to Ill nays.
Another amendment, offered by Mr..
Cobb, that service in the confederate army
or militia shall not be taken as conclusive
evidence of disloyalty, was also rejected.
The bill was then recommitted to the Com
mittee on War Claims. The rest of the
days session was given to the bill for deep
ening the mouth of the Mississippi. No

The Louisiana Fam1ne and Mayor Have
Immediately after receiving the dispatch
from New Orleans, on Thursday, announc-
ing that $4,000 citizens of the State of Lou
isiana were likely to die of famine, by rea-
sOn of the overflow of the Mississippi,
if immediate aid was not furnished,
Mayor Havemeyer threw the telegram
carelessly on his desk, and subse-
auently directed his clerk to hand it
to the reporters of the various journals. A
colored waiter from Nash's restaurant then
entered his chamber with tray laden
with viands, to which the chief magistrate
did, as usual, ample justice. A tall young
gentleman next appeared in the outer
room. The moment he approached the
sergeant-at-arms opened the door lead
ing to the mayors sanctum, and he
was instantly in the presence of the
chief magistrate. The last visitor Mr.
Bogart) has been in the habit of making
daily calls on the mayor to inform him of
the condition of his lead stock, whether
it had suffered from the manipulations of
bears or increased in value under the in
huence of the bulls. Mr.. Bogart's story
seems to have been SO important that the
mayor has not said one word about the sad
telegram since.-Ner York Times.
