of the letters advising the party at Washington
that .:the correspondent Of the New York World
is writing against us. See him and turn him in
the right direction" Col. Adams has been
asked several times to-day whether he was sue
cessfully turned, but he is far too thoroughly
known to have the lightest suspicion attach to
him. Lobbyists have found out long since how
well he can say No " to their schemes.

ADJUSTMENTS

ACADEMY OF MUsIC.-"Mons. Alphonse was
given last night at the Academy to a very fair
Saturday night house. Miss Alice Dunning Lin.
gard, As Raymonde, fully sustained her reputa
ton as skillful and excellent society actress
Miss Dickie Lingard as Madame Guchard was
as petite and charming as ever, and her rendi-
ton of that insouciant French woman was q most
admirable impersonation.
Adrienne, we had supposed, was mere child
and Miss Marion Fiske in that role, notwithstand-
ing her piquancy and beauty, we think trfe
overgrown. The support OF the regular com.
pany was all that could be expected. Tonight
Alice Dunning as Mercy Merrlck
The Fifth Annual La Cotere Carnival and Bal
Masque, which will take place on Mardi- Gras
night, promises to be most delightful and re-
cherche affair. The affair is under the auspices
of well known citizens and an early application
to Mr.. P. Short, Treasurer, will insure invitation
attention and enjoyment.
ST. CHARLES THEATER-At the St. Charles last
night Maum Gre was presented again, and as ON
every night since Murphy opened, there was q
large attendance. The play will hold the boards
until further notice
The preparations fer the annual grand ball are
being rapidly pushed forward, and the promises
that 1t will be ball is ball, and will be III
every respect worthy to rank with its predeces-
sors.
GAYETY THEATER.-Our crowded columns pre-
clude our giving this popular theater.an extended

next week is OF the most meritorious character,
and lovers of fun and happy delineation should
not fail to greet the array of talent which Man

..PINCH."

| This cream colored statesman is having hard
run of luck. His aspirations have no top his
disappointments no limit. His persistence can
be accounted for only by the fact that he still be-
lieves in the saying, that the only thing certain
| in luck is that it will change. This maxim became
familiar to him in early life. ''Double your bet
gentlemen" his employer used to remark, ''ard
| you must eventually win; and, while Pinch was
| bringing in cold deck on tn, under side of a
| japanned server, the gentlemen" would doubls
| their bets and-nOt win.
| But Pinch knew why the maxim was not veri-
fed; he knew that the saying was promulgated
| upon the supposltlon that the deal square;
| and he resolved that, if he ever became a man,
| and ''b3arded like pard"-pard with small p
he would make that maxim the rule of his life.
so long as he acted upon that rule in dealing
with paste board knaves, ne was successful but
when he applied it to knaves such as Kellogg, it
v mt back on him-so to speak.
Tie case OF Pinch is complicated. Kellogg
dislikes him because he is the color of circus
poster Kellogg is on good terms with the gen
ulne negroes, and on neutral terms with the
whites; but he abOminates an ambitious yellow
citizen. Thus there is war between William Pitt
and Percy Byssche. Grant doesn't like Pinch.
The President likes millionaires best, relatives
second best and influential politicians next Now
Pinch is neither milliona re, nor relative of
the President or any other Dent, nor hardly an
influential politician.
Thus Pinch must occupy something lower than
the third position in the descending scale of the
Of Grant, and the President would fain see him
in the seat coveted by Pinch. Kellogg, owing to
the delicate tenure by which he holds his office
is disposed to be oblging towards Grant; and
thus he is doing all in his power to prevent his
fellow citizen, Pinch, from taking his seat in the
Senate. The negroes in the State Legislature are
the only friends of Pinch.
But the SORROWS of our hero do not end here
When he returned from Washington with his first
package OF credentials, he was so discouraged
that he even accepted advice from Kellogg.
Pinch, said the Governor, there is consider
able doubt as to the legality Of your election.
Re ign, and get legally elected Pinch bit. He
resigned, and, on the following day, was re-
elected.
But the law provides that, whenever a vacancy
occurs during the session Of the Legislature, a
new election shall be held on the second Tuesday
after the Legislature shall have been properly
notified of such vacancy. The Legislature was
not notified of Pinch's resignation; and thus his
election is illegal. All things considered it is a
matter of perhapses whether Percy Byssche
Shelley Pinchback ever takes his seat in the
Senate, as the connecting link between Bruce
and the Caucasians.- Worcester Mass Daily
Press.

A Lady's Remarkable Death-Ised Request
Corpse Arrayed in n Ball Ores. and
Photographed i'm n Life-I.ike Position.

Mrs. Lowden, who died recently in COLLEGE,
avenue, IN that part Of the city formerly known
as Mott Haven, made a singular request on her
death-bed. She was pasrlonately fond of dane
ing, and her death was FASTENED by an over.in-
that she was about to die, she requested that her
remains might be laid out on board instead of
in coffin, and that she should be dressed il her
new bali dress of desh-colored satn with white
slippers, She also asked that fashionable hair
the latest style, and that her head should be
turned to one side after death, to show the hair
to advantage. Her desire was complied with
excepting that casket was substituted for the
board. After the remains were arrayed for the
grave the corpse was placed in chair, the head
turLed to one side In life-lke position and the
picture was perpetuated in photograph. The
circumstance OF her making such request

THE CITY.
FIRST MUNICIPAL COURT.

The case of Ann Connery, charged by the sons
Of the late NJ. F Fisk, with larceny, was tried
yesterday before Judge Evans and dismissed.
According to the evidence, it was shown that
the last will of the deceased was in favor of Miss
Connery he bequeathing to her all his personal
property and real estate
Shortly fter the death OF Mr.. Fisk, the two
sons app led to Judge Evans for search warrant,
to search the premises No. 1877 Camp street, occu-
pied by Miss Ann Connery, which was granted
and certain property specified in the warrant dis
covered in the house and upon the serson of Miss
Connery.
This consisted of gold watch, opal breastpin,
and small amount of Confederate money issued
by the State of Virginia in 1862. 1t was claimed
that previous to his death, Mr.. Fisk had one
hundred and sixty-fve thousand dollars of this
issue, and a certified check Of four hundred dol
lars, neither OF which, except the small amount
OF Confederate money, was discovered
Miss Connery proved that the watch was her
personal property by gift from Mr.. Fisk before
his death. In dismissiug the case Judge Evans
said it evident that the Second District
Court alone had jurisdiction in the case. The
question was not one of larceny, but whether
the will was legal or Illegal; if legal, Miss Con-
mand would undoubtedly be made for Miss Con-
merry to deliver up all the property of the late
NJ. F. Fisk. If she refused to do so, the case
then becomes criminal one, and not until then
could he have jurisdiction of it.
Pork STEALER.-James Williamson was ar
rested last night at the POydras Market, charged
with stealing quarter part of pork. Officer
Mcnamara saw him, and pulled him into the
First Precinct Station.
CHARITY HosPITAL-A man named John
Owens, aged thirty-seven years. was sent to the
Charity Hospital, from the corner OF Notre-Dame
and Peters streets. where he was found in sick
and destitute condition.

POLITICAL ON DIT.
.Dubilant.

1t was very happy Crowd yesterday. The
members were jubilant in consciousness OF
virtue, long suffering and much-enduring at last
rewarded Some of the members were that
happy that an old-time break down immi-
nent, and other members with proper regard
for that dignity which should characterize a
Legislature had considerable difficulty in pre-
venting such an exhibition.
They are not joyous account Of any COM
promise, in fact majority Of them repudiate
''the compromise" They contend that there has
been no compromise; that the persons debating
debating is what they call it terms to the
Democrats were totally unauthorized to speak or
act for the Crowd and if the terms we're sub
mitted to them they would decline to endorse
them.
They are happy in the conviction that num-
Der OF the Democrats will come in. They admit
that there is possibility, aye. probability
that the action taken in caucus will be reconsid-
cred, but they contend that this will make but
very little difference so far as the return is
cerned. They argue that the Democrats who
voted for the compromise are hungry !" that
mileage and per diem was the actuating motive
and that having placed themselves on record, and
being compelled to accept the consequences, they
will have the money.
The Crowd think that it may be several days
before the Democrats come in, but there is q
movement on foot to put through an appropria-
ton bill, and put through bill that will secure
cash to the members, for the purpose of hurrying
them up.
The chances are that until the bill is passed.
there will be but very little done.
More Compromise.
The Democratic caucus, as announced else. |
where, yesterday reconsidered their vote accept
ing the so-called compromise, but last night |
there was another caucus at which was consd. |
cred modified proposition, the result of an inter-
view between Mr. Wheeler and committee rer-
resenting the clucus The proposition is
modification of the old one to the extent that it
does not indorse the action Of the Kellogg Gov
eminent, but binds the Democrats to let bygones
be bygones.
Action was deferred until Monday. In this
connection we deem it we'll to note that the terms
OF compromise which have met with uniyer-
sal denunciation among the people, were brought
before the caucus of the Conservative members
of the House of Representatives only. The caucus
of our Conservative Senators was in no way con-
cerned Herewith. The only Senators present at
the time of the House caucus were Senators
Eustis and Robertson, of those elected in 1874.
and Senator Leonard, of those elected in 1872,
