ANOTHER DISPATCH.
QUANTIco, Va, August S-The
murderers Of young Everett, Of po-
monkey, Nd, were recaptared about
ii O'Clock yesterday. After their
escape from the Potomac City Hotel
on Saturday morning, they were
traced by Messrs. Hazlupp and Price
to Richmond Station, 6 miles south
of this junction. There they found,
at General Gitzhugh Lees, that one
of the Generals boats had been
stolen, and surmising that the par
ties had crossed the river, they pro-
cured a boat, and landing in Charles
County beat about for a trace Of
them, and finally succeeded in fird-
ing it. Following up this trail to
Smiths store, at Matthias Cross
Roads, they found the prisoners
engaged in changing silver for green
backs. They were at once taken to
Port Tobacco, where they were COM
mitted to Jail, having in the mean
time being fully identified. They
refused to answer any questions, but
one Of them is known to BIO a noto-
rious Alexandria rough named Fos-
ter. The total amount Of rewards
offered for them is $1,450, and it Is
likely that Messrs. Hazelupp aud
Price will secure the prize.

John RObinsOn's show.

Appreciative and delighted audiences
is the term that describes in detail the
patrons Of John Robinson's great show.
Both exhibitions yesterday were well
attended, and at the evening perfor-
nance the crowd was 50 dense that
standing room only could be had by
those who were so unfortunate as not to
take "time by the forelock" and 60 ear
ly. Every available place was occupied.
Seats were not to be obfaired at any
price. Reserved chairs wee filled early
in the evening, and the galleries were
filled with spectators. We do not re-
member ever having witnessed SO vast
an assemblage Of people at any one
show. We do confess a kindly feeling
for Old John Robinson, but aside from
any partially or prejudice, John Robin
sons show is really the best we have
ever attended. Every act is deserving
of mention. Surely Lowlow, as a
clown, is without a peer in the profess
sion Stickney, for grace, skill and
daring, is too we'll known to need COM
ment. Mrs Emma Lake has fairly cleo
tri6ed the ldie1ce by her wonderful
nsenage act, and. beyond doubt, she is
the most finished equestrienne in the
world. The pretty Mile Turnour rides
an act that pleases the public. She is a
charming little lady, her perilous Jeats
in m..d-air are really wonderful. Riley's
performances please both old and young.
The whole company is complete, and
every artist worthy Of praise. In fact,
Old John Robinson has to-day a COM
pany that can not fail to succeed and we
c%heerfully commend it as one of the
best that has ever been presented to a
Cincinnati audience. The company
close their series of exhibitions at Expo
sition Hall on Saturday night next,
giving two performances daily in the
interim. They go hence for a short
tour through Kentucky

From The Laramie Sentinel.

fOfe ftN
The more we think it we the more
we congratulate ourselves that we didn't
go as a reporter with the Indian expedi-
ton, for although it is very pleasant to
write up a long Indian fight, it rather
knocks the romano out of it to write up
the article in Paradise, or, in case tkat
no passes are granted to editors and re-
porters, to be obliged to get up an &C
count on ire-proof parchment, and run
the risk of securing reliable medium
by which to convey it to u paper.
All these things taken into considera-
ton, we are glad we didn't go. OF
course, what the country needs is good,
patriotic ~volurtee S to 60 Onward and
sustain the flag, and all that sort Of
thing, but the reason we don't banker
after such active life is that we object to
being promoted so precipitately. We
have never been noted for our precipis-
ton, and to be promoted from an ordi-
nary newspaper reporter TO a shining
angel without a scalp, is an honor to
which we do not aspire. There is m
thing about being sent home without any
liver or digestive apparatus, and a
spinal column with only five or six good
whole vertebra in it, hat always
strikes a chill to our patriotism. And
to think how a man is liable to have a
tomahs wk in his vi ais when he is think
ing about some hing else, and to be GU
down in a mo nent, in the twinkling of
an eye, with your dirty stockings on
and two or three suspender buttons
gone, ard an unpaid wash bill in your
pocket, and never know how large a
majority Hayes and Wheeler got-and
these things seem to convince US that
TIA government don't n, cd raw recruits
to fight the Sioux, but, CT tie contrary,
old and tried soldiers are needed. No
n doubts u patriotism or oar cour-
age. We have "killed Indians and yet
we do not say it boastingly, for there
were not these ill-tsmpe. ed ones in the
mountains that pine for the gore OF
newspaper men and would like to have
our pale blonde fair to ornament their
buckskin Grecian bends. OF course
there isn't much fun in being local
editor and getting licked every day for
giving some ill-tempered man a pleas
ant little puff, but we'd rather do 1t,
and see the circus once in a while, than
to spend the summer with the Hebrew
children and Lazarus, while the bloody
Sioux perform the difficult figures of
the "can can" around a lock Of our sor-
rel back hair.

Grant TO Succeed Sherman
as General.

New York, August 10.-The
Tribune has the following:
est. LOUIS, August 9.-The Re-
publican has obtained information,
from what is deemed trustworthy
source, that Gen. Sherman, through
second parties, is negotiating for an
elegant property in a brilliant and
fashionable suburb of this city for a
future residence. That he will cer-
tainly retire from the army after the
4th of March, in the event Of the
election of Hays and Wheeler, and
that Gen. Grant will be appointed
Gen. Sherman's successor"

CHICAGO, ILL, August "a
special dispatch to the Tribune, from
the Big Horn expedition on Goose
creek, via Fort Fetterman, says:
MERRITT JOINS CROOK.
Gen. Merritt with his force Joined
Gen. Crook yesterday, and they are
now ready for aggressive action.
This united column has 2,100 fight
ing men. Under the new organiza-
| tion Gen. Merritt ranks as officer of
| cavalry, and Col. Chambers the COM
mander of the infantry. The entire
column, with the pack train will
move at once toward Tongue river,
with 5000 pack mules, 100, 900 rounds
Of ammunition, 5000 rations and no
forage. This is the lightest march,
ing condition. The men and horses
are in the finest possible trim. The
scouting parties have discovered a
large flesil tail Of Sioux leading to-
wards the Lower Tongue and Pow
der rivers. 1t is believed the sava-
ges are in need of victuals, as picked
carcases Of dogs are found around
their camps. They have fired the
prairies to ruin the pastnrage and
render the cavalry useless.
GEN. TERRY HAS NOT BEEN HEARD
from for a month. He is believed to
have nearly 1000 men. Gen. Crook
made a speech to his men yesterday,
respecting the necessity of each doing
his duty.
RUMoRs OF TERRY's DEFEAT.
A special to the Tribune from st.
Paul says: A wild report gained
credence to-day that Terry had met
Sitting Bull and been worsted. 1t
could not be traced to any reliable
source, but shows that the opinion
is general that the Indians have q
superior force.

The Catholics and the Pub
lie Schools.

CINCINNATI, August 10.-The
Catholic Telegraph ct this morning
contains an article from Archbishop
Purcell, addressed to the people OF
the United States, relative to the
attitude of the Catholic church to-
wards the public school system, in
which he declares that the church
has no disposition to interfere with
the system. He further says: No
doubt justice and equality would
entitle Catholic people of this
country to exemption from taxa
tion for the support Of other
schools or to a share OF the
public school funds in proportion to
the number of pupils in the schools,
but even this we are. disposed to
waive in your favor.

NEW CASTLE, DEL, May %, 1876
Our usually quiet town resumed her city
airs, which for some months past has been
laid aside, and raised quite ruml us Satur-
day night. Bull Hill resounded with the
oaths of the chivalry, and the report of sew
eral pistol shots added to the excitement
and interest of the occasion. When the subject
is referred to in the presence of His Honor,
the Mayor, he gives sly wink, as much as
to say: "Wait till tonight, boys"
Our newly appointed Chief Justice made
his appearance this morning, and, after his
commission had been rea. aloud in open
court by the Prothonatory, assumed his
place as, and reformed the functions Of,
presiding officer of the court.
We doubt not his possessing all the re
quisite qualifications of Chief Justice, but
we do know that his manly presence and
dignifed bearing are peculiarly fitted to the
exalted station.
In the afternoon. upon the assembling of
Court, Mr.. Patterson introduced the resolu-
tiOns which had previously been adopted at
a meeting of the Bar by few we'll chosen
words. The resolutions were seconded by
Hon. George B. Rodney in short but
chaste and appropriate address and after
the several Judges had each added remarks
eulogistic of the services and character of
the late Chief Justice, the Court took re-
cess until to- morning at 10 o'clock.
There is rumor that John Till, q convict
undergoing the sentence of imprisonment
for life for the killing of his brother, was
married to a young colored woman of this
city short time ago.
