BIessfnxs ON the Boys.

Blessings on the boys. Not the young,
healthy, rosy-cheeked, male savages Of thir-
teen or sixteen years. They can not help
being boys, and deserve no special credit or
condemnation for it. But blessings on those
hale old boys of forty or -forty-five. or even
sixty years, who bend their broad shoulders
to the burdens of life, but who do not let
those burdens crush their hearts; whose
eyes are quick to catch the light of merri.
ment over droll story. and quicker to fill
with tears of sympathy for friends dis
trees; who retain boyish love and reverence
for all that is womanly; whose boyish conf.
dence in humanity, as whole, though often
shocked, never dies; who watch eagerly for
the bright spots OF sunshine on lifes car.
pet. and seat themselves where it falls
brightest and warmest. They rarely grow
very rich, for their boyish generosity is too
careless for that; they may not command
the awe of admiring crowds; they are not
always Systematic enough to be safely
trusted with important office; but the nlm-
BILE feet of childhood spring to them, man.
hood trustingly extends to them wide
open hand, women greet them with con.
fding smile; and all through life they live
and receive great treasures Of pure love.
God himself Is very tender to these boys.

The New York World, of March %, has
the following horse talk concerning the
spring races to commence in this city
tomorrow:
Next Saturday the racing season may be

Louisiana Jockey Club at New Orleans.
The meeting continues six days, during
which eighteen events will be decided, for

Reign of Terror in the Upper Lehlgh-
Lawless Acts of tho Strikers.
HAzLET0N, Pa, April 1.-The excitement
at Upper Lehigh yesterday during the raid
Of the miners was intense, aud during their
stay there was perfect reign o. terror.
1t seems that they divided their force before
entering the town, some coming at the east
end and others at the west, thus cutting of
the retreat of the citizens. Shots were
fred indiscriminately without any orde-
many of the crowd being Intoxicated.
At the hotel a violent demonstration was
made. The rioters went through the house,
endeavoring to force the landlord and
boarders to Join their ranks Some of the
inmates took refuge in cellar, while others
escaped through the back door. The COM
pany's store was also attacked. The super.
intendent and clerks escaped, but the rioters
fired shots into the building. Persons
riding along the highway we're stopped, and
were fred at when they refused to join.
The mob expected from Schuylkill county
did not reach Audenried. Riots are re.
ported at Ashland, with the loss of several
lives. All quiet here now.

The Floating Ice.
WILLIAMsPORT, Pa, April The ice
above this place has broken up and is now
passing down quietly on eleven feet food
A considerable quantity of logs, estimated
at 1000 per hour, have been going down
since six O'Clock this morning. They arc
supposed to have come out of Pine Creek.
All the anticipated danger at this place is
now over. The gorge which formed last
evening three miles below Lewisburg still
remains.
There are some parts Of the town under
water. Families living in the low part of
town have moved out, but if the gorge dos
not break by the time the Glen Union
gorge, which passed Lockhaven early this
morning, reaches there, it is feared great
destruction will ensue. The longer the
gorge remains there the more excited the
people become, and the more danger of de-
vastation.
Reports from Lockhaven say the Glen
Cnion gorge passed there nicely at five
o'clock this morning, and no danger is now
anticipated.

Louisiana Jockey Club.

The arrangements for the spring meet
ing have been perfected and everything il
now in readiness for the opening day. The
Louisiana Jockey Club has been most
liberal in the matter of purses, and the i'm
provements to the track, grand stand and
grounds, furnish evidences of judicious ex
penditure and regard for the wishes of the
public. The track is in good order despite
the heavy rains. The admirable system OF
drainage adopted by the club, and the
superior material of which the track is
made, have successfully detied the elements
and the track, though heavy, is far better
than others would be under the same cir
cumstances.
We make these remarks concerning the
track, as We have sug ggestion to offer, and
do not wish this suggestion to be miscon-
strued by the gentlemen of the club.
In view of the fact that the prevailing
bad weather has rendered the approaches
to the race course very muddy, and in con-
sideration of the Circumstance that any open
air exhibition during this unreasonable
weather would be anything but enjoyable,
it is to be hoped the suggestion Of post.
ponement will be taken in kindly spirit
1t is we'll known and universally conceded
that the managers Of the Jockey Club have
done all that could be done to make this
meeting success. They have a fine field
of horses, the best stock in the country;
their programme is raised, and promises
the highest order of equine sport; the club
is in entire readiness to make good all that
has been claimed for it. But while it is
admitted that the club is ready and pre-
pared, it may be urged on behalf of the
public that more genial weather would en-
hance thousand fold the pleasure of the
equine contests.
The ladies have been for days and weeks
engaged in building up elaborate toilettes
and anticipations expressly for the races.
The most utterly mysterious bonnets have
been elaborated and the aforesaid gorgeous
raiment and mystically constructed cephalic
adornments agree not with Boreas and the
vernal showers. Place aur danes is a
knightly motto. so, messieurs Of the club,
pray postpone your meeting till more favor
able weather.
1t is announced that pools for the first
days racing will be sold this evening at Haw-
kins' clubroom. 1t is to be hoped, however,
that the kindly suggestion of the REPUn-
LICAN for postponement will be adopted,
in which case the sale Of pools will probably
also be deferred.

The Carllses Demsralized.


MADRID, April H. The Carlists have
hoisted flags Of truce at Renteria and Oya
zan, and are fraternizing with the govern
ment troops. General Cabrera has written
to Don Carlos declaring the decree issued
BY the latter, depriving him of his honors
would b the best justification of his course
he could have, if he needed any. One hun
dred Carlists have been captured at Mau-
Asia.
What Childers Tanks Of America.
LONDON, April l.-Mr. Childers, speaking
his last American tour. He spoke in terms
of high eulogy of the Americans. The
United States, he thought, was probably
the most prosperous country in the world.
He estimated that in fifty years it would
contain 10000, 900 inhabitants. While the
| progress Of England was necessarily linn
! tied. he foroibly presented reasons why

lin, says financial crisis is feared there
Settlements on the Bourse are effected
with great difficulty. There have been
twenty eight failures, and two persons have

cial reverses.
The German War ON the Roman Catholics.
A special from Berlin to the Post reports
that eighty ecclesiastics are at present i'm
pris0ned in Posen alone. 1t is rumored
that the government has arrested the papal
delegate who has been secretly administer
ing the archbish0pric of P0sen since the
arrest of the incumbent.
Conchas' Charges against Jovellnr.
Madrid dispatch rays that among the
specifications in C0ncha's charges against
JOvellar is one that, when COncha was
Captain General of Cuba, he had occasion
to send General Riquelme home for insub-
ordination. When the latter returned to
Spain, Jovellar, who had become Min
ister Of War, approved his conduct and
subsequently promoted him. The govern
ment finds it difficult to defend Jovellar
from these accusations.
An old Spanish law prohibits tho appoint
ment OF an Ex-Governor of q colony to anv
public post until formal inquiry has been
had into his past administration. 1t is un-
derstood that in Senior Jouvellars case no
such inquiry has taken place since his
return from Cuba, and this circumstance
may be used as q pretext for his withdrawal
from the ministry.
Tho Carlists In eantander.
PARIS, April l.-Advices from Spain state

Carlos and the bulk of the army. 1t is

cree, and the situation is critical.

Wind nor damp less than hurricane or
flood, has not power to keep our people
from the enjoyment of we'll rendered opera
bouffe. After long strain of theatre fast.
ing, politics and Lent amusements are
sought, and the Soldene opera troupe at the
st. Charles Theatre meets all of the require
ments of first class entertainment. The
house was crowded again last night to wit
ness the first representation of ''Chilperic''
in this city. The opera is by Herve, who
Las given US Gle Petit Faust" and it is a
medley Of wild and rollicking song and
solid concerted music. Miss Soldene sus-
tains the part of the young King of the
Gauls with tact and dramatic ability, sing
ing the music with fine effect. The invoca-
ton to the Druids was picture aud
volume of melody far above the or
dinary composition Of comic opera;
it bordered upon the grand, and a
repetition was demanded. Miss Robson, as
the peasant girl Fredegonda. was an able
second to Miss Seldene, and their scenes
were we'll managed. Throughout the opera
are scattered gems of song, made agreeable
by apparent contrasts. 1t has grand cho-
ruses like the Druidical solo and chants
mentioned, and airy nothings like the but
terhy song. The costumes and tableaus
seen were admirable beyond expectation.
"Chilperic" will be repeated tonight.
The regular drama is at sea without
prospects of sighting good house at the
Varieties Theatre the present and last
week. "She Stoops to Conquer" on Monday
night, with "Nan, the Good for Nothing"
takes Risks" for two nights, a dose of
"Metamora' with an "Object of Interest
last night, and will make a change with
Bulwer's Money" tonight. On Saturday
evening the season will be stranded with
the "Wreck Ashore" followed by "My
Neighbor's Wife"

Disiinguished Visitors. .

An excursion party composed of some o
our leading statesmen, and railroad an(
literary characters, some of them accom-
panied by their wives and friends, hay'
arrived ID our city and taken up temporar.
quarters at the st. Charles Hotel. TIL;
party is made up as follows:
Senator Cameron, of Pennsylvania.
Senator Morton and wife, of Indiana.
Senator Anthony, of Rhode Island.
Senator Patterson, of South Carolina.
Senator Dennis, OF Maryland.
Ex-senator u. Chandler, of Michigan.
Colonel Thomas A. Scott and wife, oi
Pennsylvania.
Ex- Governor Joseph f. Brown and wife
Of Georgia.
Major Ben Perley Poore and Miss Poore
Of Washington.
Mr.. and Mrs. Wayne McVeagh, of Harris
burg, Pennsylvania.
Mr.. and Mrs. w. c. Merrill, Mrs. Mallon;
Miss Peters, Miss COrlige, Mr.. Mackey, o!
Phlladelphia; Colonel Grant and Captain
Grant, of Georgia.
A representative of the REPUBLICAN
called on the party and learned from
the excursionists to leave here next Satur-
day for Vera Cruz, whence they proposed
to 90 by rail to the city of Mexico; but that
there was a possibility Of this arrangement
being interfered with by the reports that
yellow fever exists at Vera Cruz. In case
the party did not proceed to Mexico he said
it would remain here few days and then
return home by some other route. He
further said that the intended visit to
Mexico had no political significance what
ever; that it was purely a pleasure excur-
sion arranged for the purpose of gratifying
the curiosity of the excursionists to see
New Orleans and the city of Mexico.
1t is to be regretted that the party have
arrived here at time when our city does
not show to its best advantage. 1t has been
raining ever since their arriyal-a cold rain
at that for this season of the year-with
not even a gleam Of sunshine to dispel for
short interval the gloomy appearance
that heavy rain storm is sure to give our
city. The picture presented by New Orleans
just at this time is certainly not such one
as is calculated to make favorable impress
sions on visitors, particularly those who
have had their expectations raised by read
ing glowing accounts of the Sunny South.
We therefore hope the distinguished party
will remain until this bad spell Of weather
is over, when they will be able to see our
city under more favorable circumstances,
and realize the fact that all they have heard
about its beauties is not fiction merely.
