NEW YORK NOTES.
The Exclusion Of Jews From the Manhattan
Beach Hotel.

NEW York, July 23.-The action of Austin
Corbin in publicly expressing the wish that
the Hebrews should not patronize Manhattan
beach or the railroad is the great TOPIC OF
conversation since yesterday morning. Cor
bins objections are based upon the conduct
and not upon the race OF religion. He says
that there are well-behaved Jews, but as a
rule the Jews are offensive to the people who
patronize his road and hotel. II the people
find the railway and hotel given up to Jews,
they will not patronize them. The people
don't go to bathe at the Jewish resort, a few
miles distant.
One proprietor Of the Manhattan Beach
Hotel said that he only wished to get rid OF
Levy, the cornet player, got $3.50 q week at
Manhattan beach, and it appears that he and
Corbin are very friendly.
One OF sthe proprietors OF the Brighton
Beach Hotel says
"No doubt that there Is O certain class OF
Jews who are noisy and vulgar, and it is a
we'll known fact among hotel men that when
this class once takes possession OF place,
that place Is dead, killed by just this patron
age"
The opinion Of proprietors Of the other ho-
tells on Coney Island beach vary as to the wis
dom OF CorbinS course.
Prominent Hebrews of this city vehemently
denounce his conduct
The San SAYS people will not forget Gen
Grants anti-JeW order when he was COM
manding our Western army, nor will they for.
get his connection, through the marriage oi
his beautiful and accomplished sister, with
the Corbin family.
"n JUDGE HILTON's VIEWS.
The Tibme's Saratoga special reports
Judge Hilton as saying that he had not
changed his opinion on the subject Of the re.
lations between hotel proprietors and the
Israelites, and would take the same action
which he took before If a similar state Of af
fairs should occur. The course which he was
following In regard to the exclusion Of a GER
tain class of Hebrews from the Grand Union
Hotel had been beneficial.

dians had a hot fight with large hunting
party of Sitting Bulls warriors. Gen. Miles
was forced to come to the rescue, after Clark
had pursued the hostiles ten miles. Sitting
Bull has 1000 lodges on Little Rocky Creek,
which would make his force about $500 war
riors. Our force Is 800 men. One Of the
most experienced men In the West gives 1t as
his opinion that there will be plenty of fight
ing. Miles's command Is not strong enough
to cope with such adversaries The roads are

used his Winchester freely and killed @
Cheyenne chief, Shadow Comes Out, at the
| first fire. The Cheyennes then charged in @
body and killed the Sioux, whom they recog-
nized as q promising warrior OF the Uncapa-
pas. The report that Sitting Bull, with an
Overwhelming force, is within a few miles OF
| us, is confirmed. He may place us on the de-
| fensive.

antees the truth OF the following details:
Near the "Cut-off," NJ. Lambasse and his
son both fell victim to snake bite, under the
following circumstances:
Lambasse and his son Bib were serpent
charmers, who cared as little for rattlesnakes
as they would for turtle doves. They were
constantly surrounded by their venomous
pets, serpents Of the most deadly species,
with which they played fearlessiy.
Last Sunday Bibi, who had a magnificent
rattlesnake, tried to sci. it to one Of his
friends. For this purpose he took it out OF
barrel where it was kept, aud in order to show
The serpent, unwilling to grant the caress
desired, ended by becoming 50 enraged that It

arm. Immediately afterward, Bibi's father
took the serpent In his hands and tried to
show those present that his son had acted
cIumsily, or was charmer of a much in
ferior character to himself. So saying, he
put the head Of the hideous creature IN his
mouth The serpent bit him also. Father
and son were both attacked with frightful
pains soon after, and their bodies became
horribly swollen. They died in excruciating
tOrtures.

Extraordinary Arrangements.

By some extraordinary arrangement, CEN
turtles ago, the fabric of Arundel Castle, the
Duke Of Norfolk's famous ancestral seat In
Surrey, was to be maintained out OF the rents
arising from the ground on which stand Nor
folk and Arundel streets. in London. Toward
the close Of the last century the Duke, whose
ton, allowed the moneys arising from this
source to accumulate, and endeavored to
break the arrangement compelling this par
ticular use, but In vain. a sum Of 81 100000
was consequently expended upon the castle,
and an immense addition made to 1T, OF which
the ground floor was entirely Of stone; the
next fitted entirely, floors and ,lll, with ma
hogany, and the floor above that again with
oak. Probably the aforesaid arrangement has
now been set aside. There are still one or
two families In England who are compelled,
In compliance with bequests, to spend q eer-
tain annual sum on the purchase OF plate, and
ingenuity Is exhausted In devising means Of
compliance. The hinges OF the doors in one
Of such mansions are OF silver.

Commercial and Consular Reports The
Large Emigration From Canada
to the United States.

WASHINGTON, July 23-Mr. Pace, United
States consul at Port Sarnia, Canada, reports
to the Department Of State that the emigra-
tion from Canada to the United States Is large
and of valuable character, thrifty farmers
carrying considerable property with them.
The number crossing at Port Sarnia in the
last year was 27, ,329, of whom II, 739 were from
Canada direct. This is an increase over last
year.
The newspapers Of Canada are disposed to
question ssim1lar statements heretofore made
by our consus, but without impugning their
substantial correctness. The personal effects
of emigrants passing this consulate last year
were valued at $117,739. It is claimed that a
party Of the emigrants go to Manitoba.

State reports that considerable quantities OF

year With great effort flour and corn from
the United States may be sold in Spain, but
strong preiudices are to be overcome.
The Importation OF American tobacco has
fallen off during the last year owing to the
government restrictions. The petroleum
trade Is largely Overdone and prices are low.
American shipping finds it difficult to COM
pete with British steamers touching at
Gibraltar.

secure to the United States the commerce OF
that country, says: II had a little bill pend
ing in the Colombian Congress to encourage
communication with the United States and
Colombia by giving little aid to a steamship
line to New Orleans and New York, but some
unfortunate revolver practice in the House Of
Representatives caused the legislative body
to adjourn suddenly, but we will capture the
commerce OF this country yet"

That Black List.
[Baton Rouge Capitolian.,


1t called "a black list" composed Of the mem
bers of the Convention who voted against the
majority report on the State debt. The list
embraces some Of the best and purest men
in the State. Harry Gould, Esq, the editor,
may have tickled g. few soreheads, but he
threw principle and common sense to the
winds.
[Morehouse Clarfon.l
A number of Democratic papers In this
State are engaged, or have been engaged, in
slandering and abusing, directly or indirectly,
who cast their votes recognizing the whole
debt with 3 per cent interest for fifteen years
and per cent thereafter.
Our respected contemporary, the Liuing-
stonid,a, published at Port Vincent, La, and
edited by the talented Harry Gould, goes so
far as to publish the names OF these gentle
men with the request to s'pass them around"
The names of such men as A. S. Heron,
John Phelps Donald Caffrey, John Chaffe,
Thomas j. Semmes, A. b. George. j. ID. Wat
Der of other Democrats who live to-day with
records, political and otherwise, unstained
and unsullied spotless and pure, high above
the reach OF the calumniators, are assailed
by the repudiating organs with vituDeration
and abuse because they voted according to
their honest convictions.
Has the time come when the best men OF
our State cannot exercise the rights OF free
men without being lashed with the tongue OF
the slanderer and published before the world
as traitors to their country and to their peo-
pie? We earnestly hope not.
There is such thing as justice, liberality
and courtesy connected with those journals
who are opposed to the ''rule or ruin" policy,
and we think 1t would be better, for the unity
of the Democratic party at least, if our re-
spected and sprightly contemporary, the
Liuingstoni0,a, and other newspapers in the
State who have permitted their temper to
control their reasoning organs too much,
mixed, just before writing each editorial and
if it fails to act properly, then light sprinkle
OF rat poison.
