THE MONITOR ARMAMENT.
ii i Being Removed to the Pcnsa

The monitors lying below the city, several
OF which were sold last fall, have been re-
gieved of their armament, and the guns, num-
herring it is understood about forty, are be
InS transported to the navy yard at Pensacola,
Florida. No significance is attached to the
removal of these guns to this point other than
is implied in the fact that it is prominent
naval station, and they can there be more
readily utilized than here should there ever
occur a demand for them. Captain Boffinger
has the contract to transport them to the
point named.
We observe that another childrens concert
ls to be given at the Coliseum Place Church
on next Tuesd.y evening. Many suppose that
concerts given by children are to be regarded
only as charity affairs, and hence tolerated.
But we can assure our readers that such an
estimate of those given by the children of
that school is wide Of the truth. They are
simply inimitable. They are under the leader
ship Of the Rev. DR.. Taylor, and he is per-
feet maestro in their management. One Of
orr leading merchants observed of the last
one of these concerts that he had never
dreamed of such entertainment in singing by
q mass Of children, and that he was remu-
nerated a half dozen times the value Of his
&icket.

On Monday the jurors in the Beecher
case went into the County Treasurer's
office, on their way to the courtroom,
and drew eighty dollars and twenty-five
apiece for service up to that time. This
was the lawful pay of two dollars day,
and twenty-five cents for the case. The
Supervisors will be asked to allow extra
compensation, as most of the Jurors are
losers pecuniarily by the long interfer-
ence with their ordinary avocations.
Neither Judge nor jury have yet
been tardy IN attendance, except
when the ice has hindered
ferry transit. Mr.. Beecher and his fam
lily were also prompt, and the Plymouth
party was as numerous as ever. Mrs.
1ilton was still absent, although her lit
tie son Ralph, who has been dangerously
i'll with pneumonia, was so far recovered
as not to require her constant care.
Ralph is the boy about whose paternity
MIR. Tilton swore there was a conference
between himself and Mr.. Beecher. He
is a bright little fellow. six years old,
and is living with his mother in the fam
lily OF Deacon Ovington, of Plymouth
Church. Mr.. Tilton did not visit him
during his illness, being assured that he
would not be admitted to the house, but
gJt news Of his condition daily from the
attending physician. MIR. Tiiton was in
Court, looking WOSn out and anxious.
He has in appearance grown five years
older in the past six months.
