Mr.. STATIONS CAsE.-Yesterday morning
Mr.. Lnberg brought civil suit against Mr..
Alexander Stanton, the president of the Texas
Colony, for an assault. Mr.. Stanton was taken
before Judge Knight and held in the sum of
5000 for his appearance at the September term
of the Superior Court Mr.. Stanton was also
arrested on criminal process and will appear
in the Municipal Court this morning to answer
to it. Mr.. Linberg says he was passing the
door of the headquarters on Federal street
when Stanton stopped him aud asked him to
step in. He refused to do so, when Stanton
grabbed him BY the collar and struck him in
the side of the head.i
Mr.. Linberg also says that he has not been
friendly to Mr.. Stanton and has not known
him but very slightly; that he never did him a
favor in the world, and what he (Lnberg) has
ever said of Stanton was his honest conviction,
and undoubtedly broug ht on the assault.

A MYsTERY.-Yesterday morning one of
the coal beavers employed by S. Rounds &
Son, on Franklin wharf, found the clothes of a
boy on the west side of the wharf The hat
was an old black one, the pants brown, vest
grey, and the shirt checkered. When found
the hat was on scow which was laying at the
wharf, but the other clothes were in such a
condition as they would likely be left by per-
son who was disrobing. The report of the
finding caused great deal Of excitement, and
hundreds of people focked to the wharf to
identify The clothes, but no one was found who
had ever seen them. 1t is thought that a 10y
went 10 bathing and got under the scow and
was drowned. The dock was dragged, how
ever but no body was.foupd. Some think that
the whole thing was hoax, and that the
clothes were placed there by some one for a
Joke.

MADAME RENTzs MNsTRELs.-Therew was LIT
that rush to Music Hall last night that is
usually witnessed when female minstrels are
announced. The last show of thisskind here
was little too decent. However there was a
very good attendance, all of the masculine
gender The first part Of the show differed
little from variety performances in general.
There was singing by girls who lacked voices,
but had bewitching ways, good dancing by the
Love Sisters, very sickly attempts at what the
bill styles character eretions by r. V. Fergu-
son, and some Teutonic specialities by Mr.. John
Keen, which were tolerably amusing. Barring
Mr.. Ferguson's performances the first part of
the show was very good The entertainment
concluded with piece called Ixon, which
gave opportunity for free and easy dance of
the gods and goddesses, as near an approxima-
ton to the can-can as the statutes will allow.
1t may safely be said' that this part of the
show was not decent enough to drive any one
away. A change Of bill is announced for to-
night.

The statement of the Washington Cap
itol that the negro Toliver, hung by masked
men in Martinsburg some time ago, was limo
cent, and that the real murderer was the
brother of the little girl murdered, and that
in fit of remorse he had removed himself
from the world, elicits the following from the
Mattinsburg Statesman:
Tho statements in reference to the negro
Toliver, published by the Capitol, is utterly
false. 1t is true that the brother of the mur-
dered child shot himself, but it was acciden>
tai aud he is living in the county to day.
This same story was circulated in Martins
burg short time after the hanging of Tolls
YER, but was entirely refuted in the columns
Of the Statesman, and nothing has transpired
since the terrible crime was committed that
casts tho shadow of doubt upon the negro's
guilt. The hellish report that the brother Of
the outraged aud murdered child had com.
mitted the deed, was set afoas for the pur-
pose of fastening the stigma of murder upon
those who participated in the righteous hang
ing Of Toiver."
