GENERAL SHERMAN INTERvIEwED.-A rep resentative of the Enquirer entered the office of the Grand Hotel yesterday evening, just as handsome carriage stopped in front ot the entrance. The Enquirer ambassador was on l his way to interview General Sherman, who | was quartered at the hotel. The carriage con- 1 tained young lady, who, as it appeared from | subsequent developments had called to invite | the General to attend soiree at her mothers residence The footman from the carriage l brought in the young lady's invitation, handed | it to the clerk and it was sent up the Generals room No. 128. on the same tray with the gilt edged card bearing the honcred name of the | Enquirer man. There was an interval of aw- ful suspense On the part of the scribe, while the footman, with his brass buttons and white gloves shared even worse fate. The boy | returned with two cards from Geneal Sherman. l They were handed to the clerk, who passed them overcome to the reporter and the other to the footman-while he gave the paste dia- mond stud in his shrt-front another twirl. The reporter read the card that had been handed te him, while his hair stood on end, as follows: | Regret exceedingly that cant come. Give my love to your mother and assure her that have not forgotten old times. Hope the SOiree will be success, as I'm sure it will be- Par l don the witticism when l say that yours truly | is very SOtree he cant be present. w. T. 5. | To Miss Blanche Blank.
 Great drops of precipitation stood on the re- perters massive brow and dropped from his in | tellectual nose. Just as he realized that there | was a mistake wild shriek came from the | carriage at the sidewalk and the lady who had received the other message fell fainting on the back seat. while the coachman whipped off in the direction of drug store. AS the carriage whirled away a card bearing the following rude inscription dropped from the lady's nerve less hand and t1uttered to the ground:
 | OO LO I'll! WndI uO care dUOuI IHO army, the Chinese bill, the Coolie trade the Presidential question or any other d-d ques- ticn! Never heard of man named Tilden and dent want to, but regard him as horse thief of the deepest dye. Again l say, as 1 said in the beginning, go there yourself!
 w. T. s.
 When the card was read aloud to the crowd they knit their brows and threatened to tear the Grand Hotel dpwn over the head of the miscreant who sent it, even if he was at the head of the army.-CI''cinn0ti Enquirer.
 A REAL BLESSING TO WoMEN.-Mrs. Wal ter Hinkley, of Cotuit, Mass, called in con- pany with her husband, on Dr. David Kenne- dy, of, Rondout, N. Y.-the proprietor of the medicine lately introduced in this place, hap oily named Favorite Remedy-and made the following interesting statement: For many years had been great sufferer from what was called fibrous tumour. Had secured | the assistance of the best accessible medical men, and used many of the patent medicines recommended, but without obtaining any re- lief. On the contrary, l grew worse, until had given up all hopes of recovery. Our neighbor, Mir. John M. Handy, came from Rondout and brought me bottle of your Fla vorite Remedy. Before had used half of it 1 experienced marked improvement, and all my neighbors noticed the great change. 1 have taken some four or five bottles, and am entirely free from pain gained flesh, appetite good sleep well, in short, feel like a new be- ing. l have recommended the Favorite Rem- edy to many of my acquantances, and all, without an exception, are loud in its praise. To say that feel thankful is expressing my gratitude in the mildest form. You are at lib- erty, doctor, to refer to my case, and hope all will believe me when say that no woman suffering from any of the complaints peculiar to our sex can afford to do without it. But, doctor, you must take more pains to tell the | people how to avoid the mistakes they have made To this end, request them to remem- Der that your name is Dr. Daoid Kennedy, and the medicine is called (what it is in fact) Fa- vorite Remedy; price, only one dollar, and that you are practicing physician and surgeon | of RondOut, N. Y. 50-4w | UNJUsTLY ACCUSED OF BURGLARY-Mr. | Stephen Cutter. the General Agent Agent of the Prison Association of New York, yesterday made public the facts in a case where young man unlawfully accused of burglary q almost sent to State prison for crime of which l he was perfectly innocent. On the morning of February 2S, Michael Brady, aged twenty years, employed as a driver on the Battery, State and Church street line of cars, was ar raigned at the Tombs Court before Justice l Kilbreth by Officer James Mulvey, of the First Precinct. The officer swore positively that he heard the window of Mo- 118 Water street break the night before and arresested Brady in the act of running away from the place. The officer was asked if Brady was not merely running through the street, but | reiterated that he arrested the prisoner in the act of running away from the place which had been broken into. Justice Kilbreth commit ted Brady for trial in default of $1 .000 bail | and he was lodged in the Tombs. Warden Finn became convinced of his innocence and called the attention of MT. Gutter to the case Mr. Cutter in his investigation learned that 1 Brady's previous character was of the best that he had supported his mother for many years; that he was formerly in the employ of 1 the Brooklyn Bridge Company which thought | so highly of him that on it's suspension he was recommended to the street car company in whose employ he was at the time of his ar- rest. On the night of the burglary Brady left the railroad depot at 20 Whitehall street to go home to his mother in Brooklyn, at precisely 1O:10 o'clock. He had just put up his horses for the night and the night watch man taking out his watch said Mike, it's | ten minutes after 10. If you run you can catch | the half-past boat at Fulton ferry Brady ran through Pearl street and into Wall, where he was arrested No burglars tools were found | in his possession. He was brought into the | station house in New street, near Beaver, at 1l:3O o'clock, exactly twenty minutes after he left the street-car depot in Whitehall street. These facts made it physically impossible for him to have committed the burglary. Yester- day morning Mir. Gutter laid his facts before the District-Attorney, the Grand Jury refused to find an indictment and Brady was discharg- ed. The railroad company at once reinstated him in his old position, and the various em- ployees will present him with small purse Now what will the Board of Police do with Officer Mulvey? ..f .r...
