Finney and Meesrs. Shaw and Joubert.
Dr.. Gustave Devron presented his Gre

The president was instructed to take
measures to remove the cause of complaints
of the dairy nuisance in the Sixth District.
The matter of fees for permits was
brought up by DR.. Devron. He had had
no difficulty till the fee of 81 for building
permit was exacted.
Mr.. Shaw doubted it the board had au-
thority to exact fee for burial permit,
that being public necessity.
The matter was again referred to the at

were appointed committee to examine the

High.Ianded Proceedings ON the Rio
Grande.
A Brownsville special, August %, to the
Galveston News, gives the following inter-
esting statement of the high-handed meas
ures of the revolutionists across the border:
The revolutionists evacuated New Laredo
to-day and attempted to carry of with them
j. j. Haynes, United States commercial
agent at that post, and sOa of Hon. John L..
Haynes. collector of customs of this dis
trict. Every influence was brought to bear
for his release, which was finally obtained
through positive order of General Ord to
Colonel Merriam, as follows:
SAN ANTONIO, August %, 1876.
To the Commanding Officer of Fort Mcintosh:
1t is reported that the revolutionists at
New Laredo hold James Haynes, United
States commercial agent, as hostage for
Quintana, and propose to carry him off.
Use your whole comand, and cross, if it be
necessary, to prevent the outrage. Act
E. o. c. ORD, Brigadier General.
There was great excitement among Off
clals here over this news, and while the ex-
citement was at its height Canales (revolu-
tionist) made feint on MAtam0ros, but was
repulsed with slight losGk
Canales' and Cortins's forces are now
combined, and number over 1900 men.
The cause of the arrest Of Haynes at
Laredo was, that he had received a wound
ed officer at his house Colonel Quintsna), !,
on the eighth instant, and after they took
the place they attempted to take Quintana
away, to which Haynes objected, Us Quin-
tana was very weak from loss of blood.
Quintans was permitted to remain, upon
pledge of Haynes. but he afterward escaped
while his host was absent at supper, with a
friend, and the revolutionists proposed to
hold Haynes q hostage for him.

More Trouble In Store for Tilden.

The New York Tribune of tie twenty
third instant says it is understood that
another suit growing out of the St. Louis,
Alton and Terre Haute railroad litigation
will be begun in few days against Gov
ernor Tilden, in the United States Court.
The new suit will be based on the old
license tax law, and be brought to recover a
large balance claimed to be due the gov.
erment az tax on Tilden's income for the
year 1862, he having, in 1873, sworn to an
income liable to taxation of $7llS, and in q
railroad suit acknowledged receiving
$4,000 as counsel fees. 1t is further al
legged that Tilden received during the same
time in 1862, stock of the road to a large
amount on his individual account, in addi.
ton to $33, 900 of first mortgage bonds and
$4,000 interest. Tilden did not include
these sums IN his income returns for 1862.
The suit will be brought to recover about
$4,000. 1t is stated that the papers in the
suit have already been prepared and will
be brought to trial in October or Novem-
Der.

The rendering of complimentary benefit
to MIR. Henry Pickles was very graceful
act on the part Of the gentlemen who signed
the letter requesting him to accept it.
During his connection with the various
amateur clubs of the city Mr.. Pickles has
over and over again exerted himself to
contribute to the entertainment of the peo-
pie. His excellence as an actor las made
him q very popular favorite, and his supe-
riority of character has kept all the friends
his talent has won. Now that he is about
to leave his friends and look for success
among strangers in the profession he
adopted after an apprenticehood as an
amateur, it is just that return should be
made him. No happier compliment could
be paid than the request to see him once
more in q favorite part before he leaves,
and enable him to carry away handsome
remembrance of the good wishes that fol-
low him wherever lie goes.
The time of the complimentary benefit to
Miss Emma Madden, at the Varieties

matte Association, has been changed from

FOR the Information of the Powers That
The following strange letter was yester-
ay received by mail. 1t imparts some
stonishing allegations, which it is the duty
somebody, Judge Pardee or the Gov
rnor, perhaps, to inquire into. After
making liberal allowance for the disap-
continent occssioned by dismissal from
,osition, enough will remain of Mr.. Lesley e
tatement to warrant an investigation to
prevent the prisoners ''skirmishing" go far
rom the Jail as to be locked out some night:

lDIroR REPUBLICANS:
For fifteen months l have occupied the
dfice of TAILOR in Plaquemines parish, an
:ppointee of the present sheriff, Mr.. Sarpy.
"he duties of this Office have discharged
b the satisfaction of all parties, and now
,ecause am suspected of indorsing another
mp;rsnt than Mr.. Sarpy for nomination
an turned out of Office and a man unable
ID perform the duties of the pfice put in
ny place. He is absent from the Jail, and
the deputy sheriff is forced to tree the
prisoners during the day time, SO that they
nay skirmish around for something to eat.
Such conduct as this on the part OF Re-
publican officer casts q reflection upon the
eAtire party, and it is not to be doubted
but that at our next nomination 1t will re-
ceve, as it richly deserves, unqualified con-
dmnation. Trusting you will favor me

A compromise has consequently been ar
ranged, in accordance with which Servia

commanded the Servians in person, sue
ceeded in repulsing the Turks on each oc-
casion. The Turks renewed the attack
early this morning and we're repulsed
along the whole line, and fell back q dis
tance of two kilometres. General Tcher-

in the event of defeat, to fall back
on Deligrad. Cuprija, on the Mo-
rava river, has also been fortified as
a third line of defense. If Tchernayeff is
successful he will advance on Nisch in the
