A First Class Sensation,

For some days past there has existed contro
yersy between the leaders of the Radical and
Conservative parties as to the status of the thou.
sands of foreigners who have, since 1864, beer
naturalized by the Second District Court. The
Radicals pretended that the Court had nc
power to nsturalize foreigners, and the Actin 2
Attorney General, A. p. Field, an intense
partisan, gave an opinion to that effect. On
tho other hand, the whole bar Of the city,
in meeting assembled last Wednesday, adopted
resolutions expressing in emphatic language
their opinions that the Court had such power
Pending decision of the matter O CORES
pondence was carried on between Major E. A.
Burke, representing the Conservative Commit

lioan party. In his lsst letter, which. appeared
in the papers Of Thursday evening before it
was received by Major Burke, Mr. Kellogg in
dulged in some severe structures on the Majors
conduct, and Infatuated that he was Radical.
The Major immediately went in search of Mr..
Kellogg and discovered him in q cab going out
Canal street. in company with Judge Atocha.
Tho exciting episode which followed the Bull

Kellogg taking in the situation at once called
loudly to the driver to Ego on p but before
the jshu came to his senses the irnte Major had
mounted upon the step of the vehicle and com

The Base Ball Nuisance.

One day last week the Piodyune had very
good article on base ball and base Da,olers
directing attention to tho outrageous conduct
of some of the young devotees of the " ma
tional game" as it is now called, and limiting
that unless q reform was soon effected in some
other way " the end may be law abolishing
base ball" We heartily endorse the opinion of
our neighbor and join in the demand that the
police authorities take cogniEapce Of the mat
ter. We admire the game as o game mot IS

choose to amuso themselves thus on Sunday

the objections urged by the Pa, We may men,
tion that several cborcheS, among Others St.
MichaSi'S, on AnnunciatiOn Square, are in the

The police should take some action In tbis

FIRST STATEMENT OF THE HOMESTEAD As.
socIAT1oN.-on our fifth page we present the
reader with the first annual statement of the
New Orleans Homestead Association. This
statement is so clear and forcible that it needs
no comment from us. The reader will perceive
at glance that on investment of $12, 900 q
profit of over $4,000, about 40 per cent, has
been made, and this notwithstanding the
heavy expenditures for books, desks, station
cry, ETC., necessary at the incipiency of an on
terprise, but which will never have to be made
again.
The Company has still few shares of stock
for sale, which, no doubt, in the face of this
statement, will at once be taken. The great
difficulty, that of making people understand
LetO the thing wo1ld work, and that there 10
no possibility Of losing money by it, has been
overcome. OF course, as the PhilAdelphians
found the scheme so admirable a. TO cause them
to organise four hundred such Associations,
those Of our people who sometimes indulge in
the luxury of thinking, saw that the question
to be solved was whether We did or did not
have in our midst men as capable as our North
ern friends The general prosperity Of our
Association and the amount of relief it has
brought to small property holders and those
DESTROYS of owning their own homes, prove
that we have men Of eqnal capacity, and now
the timid can and will come in and share the
advantages 30 long offered and neglected.

1t is shame and disgrace to Rock Isl
and that we have not even one decent street
crossing. The little town of Gcneseo has
several fine, wide crossings of Joliet stone.
and our people are growing every day be
cause we have no place to cross the streets
without getting muddy boots and soilod
clothes The ladies are especially indig-
nant about it-aud they have reason to be.
Persons getting on or off the street ears
are compelled to wade and stand in mud
And those who wish to cross the streets
are about as mad as they can be. The fact
is that the whole town is incommoded and
business injured by the neglect of our City
Council to provide crossings. \ few good,
wide crossings of Joliet stone should be
put down Immediately, at the most public
places, and more can be added as necessity
may require The street railroad company
is required to put in crossings between the
rails at every place where the city puts
down good crossing We appeal, in be
half Of all the people, men, women and
little children, to the Mayor and Aldermen
to act at once in this matter. Let vs. have
a few good crossings ut once, as an expert
meat, and add others as they may be de
manded by public necessity.

CONE, AND LET Is REASON TOGETHER
To the afflicted in body, we offer few
words of plain, practical reasoning. No
matter under what form of sickness you
labor there is one great truth you should
ever keep in mind, VIZ: All diseases orig
mates in an impure condition of the blood.
Purify that, and the disease must depart,
for it has nothing to feed on but you can,
not purify the blood by the use Of poison
drugs and exhaustive stimulants the re
lief which these afford is temporary and
deceptive, leaving you worse off at every
interval. The best Blood Purifier ever
discovered is DR., WALKER 5 FAMOUS Vim
EGAR Bi1TERs, compounded of simple
herbs. No matter how hopeless your case
may seem, try the VINEGAR BTTERs, aud
a few draughts will convince you Of their
virtue. Dr. Walker, the discoverer of this
priceless remedy, had been given up to die
by the physicians, and is now a sound and
aud healthy man from their use.
