CITY ITEMS.

Sam Crozat, a boy 13 years OF age,
while playing ball ia u green at the
corner Of Brainard and Josephine
streets, on last Wednesday evening, was
attacked by a vicious horse and so Sc
yerefy bitten and kicked that DIR. How
ard Smith thinks he will lose one OF his
eyes. The horse belongs to Mr.. John
A. Quinn, and is the same animal that
bit DR.. Pope about a year ago, who sued
the owner and recovered $40 damages
and $14 costs.
On last Saturday night VIM. Hoffman
was run over about twenfy~eight miles
above Algiers by a gravel train OF the
Morgan 3 Louisiana and Texas Railroad.
The cars passing over his right arm and
leg, injuring him in such u manner that
he died shortly afterwards. His re-
mains were brought to the city, the
Coroner held an inquest on the body
and returned verdict according with
the facts.
About nine o'clock last night, Mr..
Kelly and lady were thrown out OF u
buggy. at the corner or Basin and Com
mon streets, by the horse taking fright
and running away. The lady escaped
uninjured, but Mr.. Kelly was severely,
though not dangerously, injured about
the head. He was conveyed to his resi-
dence. on Gasquet street, between Viii
lere and Robertson. where he was at
tended by DR.. Smythe.

INCENDrARIEs AT WORK.
A LARGE Connagration In the Fourth
District.

About ~ 40 this morning fire, that
Is supposed to be the work OF an incen-
diary, was discovered In u milk stable,
on Claiborne street, between Sixth and
Seventh. and was entirely destroyed.
The flames then communicated to the
double cottage and left 1t in ashes. The
stable and dwelling were the property
OF Mr.. Pierre Cestac, but the dwelling
was occupied by w. II. Robinson.
The dwelling and stable, which was
valued at $1,000, was i..sured, but for
what amount or in what company could
not be ascertained. Mr.. Robinson had
no Insurance on his furniture. The fire
spread with such rapadity that Mr..
Robinson's family barely escaped with
their lives.
At the time this property was being
destroyed the tallow factory of Mr..
Pierre Cestac, that was in the same
square, was set on fire and, owing to the
lack of water in that vicinity, was totally
destroyed. This property was valued at
$1,000; whether insured or not could not
be ascertained.

A DIAMOND CROSS,


George Melville, who plays the part
Of middle-man at the minstrel show at
the Gaiety Theatre, No. 48 Baronne
street, on the 1st Of June was robbed of
diamond cross, numbering twelve
stones. Melville, on discovering his
loss, made no efforts to recover the
Jewel" as he knew how fast such valu-
able property changed hands. But
Special Detective Cain, on hearing that
certain parties were Offering for sale a
diamond cross, made diligent search
into the matter, and succeeded in ar
resting negro named Pierre Langry
while in the act Of disposing Of the cross.
He was brought to the Central Station
and locked up. In his doleful tale to the
detectives he stated that he had found
the cross at the Fair Grounds.
The detectives did not take much
stock in this yarn, and Langry soon
perceived it, so he made clean breast
of his numerous sins, and after impli-
eating pal of his, named Harry Rob-
erts, he said that he and his friend had
taken the pin from Mr.. Melvilles shirt
on the evening of the lst OF June.
The two accused were arraigned be-
fore Judge Evans and remanded to the
Parish Prison in default of bonds.

GOV. TsLDEN.
The white House VIII Not be Without
Feminine Attractions.

Gov. Tilden, although not blessed
with n wife, has the good fortune to be
so compassed as not to feel the distress
OF bachelorhood very acutely, and his
home in Albany is said to be as snug
and cosy as one could find throughout
the country. The members OF the Gov
ernor's household at Albany are his sis
ter, Mrs. Pelton, a sedate, matronly
widow lady; her son, Col. Pelton, and
his wife and daughter, the latter little
lady OF some twelve summers, who has
lived with the Governor since she was
two years old. SO it may be seen that
the bachelor Governor and prospective
bachelor President is as pleasantly sur
rounded socially as most married gen
tlemen. He has his pets, and they all
seem to encourage and repay his kind
nesses. In the event Of his election,
should such be the result of the coming
canvass, Mrs. Pelton could not fail to
prove as graceful and accomplished a
hostess In Washington, as she Is uni
versally acknowledged to be here. She
has resided with the Governor since his
Inauguration, and, being as aifable and
entertaining as he is himself, she has
contributed in no small measure to the
enjoyment Of his guests. Mrs. Pelton,
though of an extremely quiet and home
loving disposition, is an acknowledged
leader in Albany. In one notable re-
spect she deserves to be SO regarded
that is in the extent and liberality Of
her charitable donations. Her name
stands at the top of many list OF con-
tributions, as, indeed, does the Gov
ernor's own name. Mrs. Col. Pelton is
New Jersey lady, whose maiden name
was Miss Dickerson. She, too, is pos
sessed OF winning manners that secure
hot ha 1aaf ft,,.r -
fortunate enough to number themselves
among her acquaintances. Either lady
would be an ornament to the Presiden-
tiaI residence

SEDUCTIVE SIRENS.
A Concert Rail Robbcrs--An Old Man the
Ail.liaIa

/
In little secluded spot on the boun-
! dary line OF Mississippi and Louisiana
/ dwelt j. A. Tracy, and rs he had passed
many weary hour Of solitude. he de-
termined to visit gay and festive city,
and he struck New Orleans Before
bidding farewell to his lonely habita-
| tion he gathered up his wealth, which
consisted Of $500, and but twenty-four
hours had elapsed when he found him
self in the Crescent City.
| Although sixty summers have whiten-
ed the locks Of the venerable Tracy and
left their mark upon his brow, he has
not lost his admiration for the fair sex.
The first evening Of his arrival he
started out to have u jolly good time.
After vending his footsteps but short
distance he found himself in the silent
precincts OF Chartres street, and on ar
irving between Bienville aud Cont the
strains OF melodious music fell upon his
ear, and casting his eyes upward he
read the sign "Tivoli Gardens" His
restless spirit was appeased, he had
found the place as he supposed, where
pleasure unaloyed awaited him. He
entered the beer hall and mid the gay
and festive scenes that momentarily
met his gaze. he thought that he
had been transported into fairy land.
He took seat at one OF the tables, and
was soon spending his money freely,
treating the waiter girls. They gathered
around him, for they saw that they had
prize, and they knew that such fish
did not bite Mt their bait every day.
This deluded old man did not know
that he was treating the outcasts OF the
world--a crowd of fallen angels.
The hours had swiftly passed by, and
MS it was near o'clock, the old man
babe his fair companions good night
and departed. He had not gone far
when the thought struck him to count
his money and see the amount he
had spent. Thrusting his hand in
his pocket, to his utter surprise,
he found that his wealth was non est,
He Immediately retraced his steps to
the Tivoi Gardens, but 1t was closed,
and the only thing left for him to do
was to beg n nights lodging at the
Third Precinct Station, which was
granted to him. On the following
morning, which was Thursday, he called
on the Chief OF Police, and told his
melancholy tale. The case was placed
in the hands OF Specials Stollberger and
Sherman, who arrested Clara May and
Lizzie Bucket. The old man had the
former locked up as the principal and
the latter as an accessory.
Tracy has got about as much chance
TO recover his lucre as he has OF drawing
a prize in the Louisiana State Lottery.

A minority report was also made by
Mr.. Rogers. Both reports being re-
ceived q motion was made to reconsider

This motion being laid on the table by u
vote Of 20 yeas to III nays, the compo
sition OF the parish remains as it was
after the adoption of the Committee on
Credentials. In order to more pre-
cisely settle the status OF the various
central ward clubs the delegation
from each ward were called and
requested TO name the President
OF the ward which they represented,
which resulted in the recognition Of the
following gentlemen and their central
clubs:
