GRAND OPERA-HoUsE.-Balf opera,
"The Talisman," was produced by the
kellogg troupe last evening to a splen.
did house, who listened to the fiat and
monotonous work with very commenda-
BILE patience. Not even the great Kel-
logg was able to arouse enthusiasm or
make her audience cast Oft their lethar-
gy. The only thing that called forth any
thing like applause Was Miss Beau
monps singing Of the air, "Beneath a
portal twined with ivy leaves" The
opera, to say the least of it, is poor
one, and did not afford either the solo,
lists or chorus any opportunity of dis
playing any ability. The orchestra,
which at the beginning was very accept
able, broke down completely at the close,
which was but fitting finale to a very
weak attempt to make something out OF
nothing. The "Rose of CASTLE" will be
given this evening, with Miss Montague
and Mrs. Seguin in the cast.

A Bold Bad Man.

That man g. U. johnson, alias j. G
Coolidge, who was arrested by Detective
Hazen the other day, is bad lot, ii
seems. He has gone to Peoria, ILL.,,
in charge of Sheriff Hitchcock. He is
wanted at Rutland, VT, at Duluth and
Red Wing, Mimi, and several other
places.
Of late lie has been travelling under the
preteXt of doing business for silver
plating house of Boston, and whenever
he could strike acquaintance who had
not yet learned TO suspect him, he has
played, or attempted, his little game oil
forgery, generally for one or two hun.
dred dollars. In Peoria, Mr.. j. Wocott,
who had known him many years, twenty
or more, was induced to indorse one
of his bogus checks for $l00, on which
he got the money out Of bank.
This was week ago last Sat-
urday. On the Monday follow
ing, before the Peoria bank could
hear from the check which purported to
be drawn by the Boston "hOuse," John.
son made an attempt TO get one hundred
dollars more in that place, procuring the
Endorsement of MIR. N. E. Worthington,
an attorney there, and recognition by
Mr.. Law, saloon-keeper. We believe
he failed to realize on this, though.
From Peoria he went to Chicago, and
then he came to this city, registering at
the St. James as j. q. Coolidge. Sneri1
Hitchcock was after him before the
Peoria frauds came out, for a Rutland
bank. He will now take him to Peoria
for trial first. Johnson has a wife in
Chester, Vermont.

Important Decision on the Homestead Law


WASHINGTON, Dec. .9.-The House hav-
ing adjourned over, the Republican
members thronged the Departments yes
terday and to-day, endeavoring to Sc
cure positions for their friends who have
been or are about to be displaced through
the House OF Representatives on Demo-
cratic basis. They urge with considera-
BILE force that, as these men are to be re-
moved on strictly party grounds, places
for them should be made by the removal,
by the Republican Secretaries, OF any
one whose fidelity to their party is in
the least questionable.
The sale of postal cards by the Post
Office Department in November
amounted to $10,1l1, 500, and during the

fraction of one-third the total sales ior
the year ending June 30tb, 1875.
The Secretary OF the Interior has just
decided in the case of Jesse Doran VS..
Albert Towers, Of stanton, that an action
for the cancellation of a homestead en-
try for abandonment will only lie against
the original applicant and not against
his widow, heirs, devises, &C., and that
personal residence by the representa-
tves is not required, cultivation and i'm
provement being sufficient compliance
with the law.

ordered on the Utica g. Black River rail-
road from Redwood to MOrristown, N.
