YOUNG MEMS SoCIAL.-The party
given by the Young Mems Social Club
at Criterion Hall, last evening, was
well attended and proved a most en-
joyable affair. We looked in for a few
moments during the evening and were
filled with regret that we did't have on
our store clothes so we could join
in the may" The club is composed
of our best young men. and the series
of parties which they propose giving
will doubtless prove the pleasantest
terpsichorean gatherings of the season.

choice article of ice from the Hum

Van requests us TO say that IT is not
his fault, and further, that he hopes
to have such arrangements within a

About that Temperanee Picnic:

TO the Union and American:
saw in this mornings Banner two
statements in regard to the Temperance
picnic, last Monday, that need correction.
The first was a card signed "Y, complain
Ing about scarcity Of water and want Of &C
Communications al the hotel. The facts are
that the committee was taken by surprise
regarding the number that would attend;
that preparations were made for about coo
persons, aud that at least 300 were pres
eut-a number far exceeding any that had
ever gone TO a picnic before, and far be
yOnd the committees most sanguine ex-
pectations. Capt. Yeatman, proprietor Of
the hotel, was informed that he need pre-
pare dinner for no more than fifty. guests,
not over that number having applied TO him
for dinner al the picnic Of June ,, when he
had been warned 10 provide for 200.
In regard to the water there was 10
trouble after the first rush made upon the
arrival Of the cars when everybody was
thirsty.
In view Of these facts l cannot see thai
ang blame can be attached either to the
committee or Capt. Yeatman.
The other statement concerns the young
man who received a suIstrOke, credit be-
ing given for the attentions paid him TO
the wrong party. He was taken from the
cars and sent to the house of the station
agent By order Of the committee, who paid
his bill there and that Of his family and
physician aud had him Brought TO the city
in a sleeping car the next morning. The
Banner was very prOfuse in its praise Of
that good Samaritan Ii theIe.was a
good Samaritan in the case, it was the
committee and young DR.. Poole and Mr..
Arnold, the station agent. Thanks are
due to them for their kindness. This is
not written to raise a controversy with
''Y" or anybody else, but simply to give
credit to whom credit is due.

The Strange History Of a Conditional
Pardon.

Leander Mantle was convicted of an at
tempt to commit rape in Robertson county
and sentenced to ten years Imprisonment
in the peniteuliary. He appealed TO the
Supreme Court and the case came upat the
last term of that tribunal in this city,
about six months ago. His counsel with
drew the appeal and the judgment Of the
court below was affirmed. But au order
was applied for Immediately to have the
prisoner placed al the hospital for the III
sane. 1t was represented that be was in
sane, aud, with the consent of the Attorney
General, the order was granted.
In making the application, counsel
presented conditional pardon
for Mantle from Governor Brown,
granted in consideration Of the prisoners
lunacy, the conditions being that he should
90 70 the State Insane Asy ium and remain
till restored, and that no attempt at escape
on his part or rescue on the part Of his
friends should be made till restoration,
both physical and mental the pardon 10 be
Of no effect in case such attempt should be
made.
Mantle was removed to the Asylum and
has continued there as q patient ever since,
under the sharp watch of the keepers and
physicians. He has acted for most Of the
time in the capacity Of attendant in one Of
the wards, his mind having been abund-
antlY sound for that work from the start,
The case received the especial attention Of
the Superintendent, who made it q matter
of careful investigation, resulting in the
conclusion that the patient is no. insane,
but only feigning to be so.
DR.. Calender yesterday laid the case be-
fore Gov. Porter, with all the papers con-
necied with it, for Executive action.
There is a good deal Of the singular in the
whole affair aud it evidently presents quite
a perpleXity to the Executive mind.
MantlOs alterations, as described by
DR.. Calender, relate chiefly to his late ex-
peTienCe in the cOur.s. In response 10
the question whether he remembered his
trial and conviction, be said: "NO; l was
never in a court house in my life" He
SAID he Gid not remember having gone be
fore the Supreme Court az the Capitol,
nor any of the legal proceedings in his
case His memory, however, Of every
thing prior to his arrest is sound, prOmp5
and Intelligent answers being given TO ali
questions relating TO his life up 20 that
time. His pTetenses-if such they be

The IdIoey OF s,ree1 spr,nkIIng.

Connected with street sprinkling there
are always two idiots. One is the idiot
WHO stands behind the fence throwing tlh
contents Of tie garden hose out upon the
duSt-bed in The street, and the other is the
idiot who passes by on the sidewalk The
idiot who passed wonders why the idiot
behind the fence does not come out on the
curb-stone and sprinkle, so that the idiot
who passes may not be showered while
passing under the stream, but the lido. be-
hind the fence knows instinctively that
should he do so the idiot who is passing
will always step upon the hose as il lays
across the sidewalk aud will busrt the rub
her, and be wonders why the idiot passing
doesn't understand this. And so the two
idiots misunderstood each other, because
beth are wrong and both are right.
