CIeyerand's He iialtsy.

s The enterprising and hospitabIe
city of Cleveland has recently gotten
up flaming posters for distribution,
setting forth the wonderful advantages
possessed by them in point of health>
fulness and desirability ss summer
resort, inviting Southerners TO come
among them aud enjoy their hoe! .ital-
ity. One of these posters fell into the
hands of Mr.. Jas r. Ogden, at the
railroad, just about the time he yell
low fever news from Memphis reached
US Thursday. Mr.. Ogden wrote on
the back inquiring how many Mem
-phis people they could accom- modate,
informing them he could give them
all the guests they want from that
city; also requested them to forward
a lot Of their posters TO Barney
Hughes in Memphis, who will work
them up crowd. This he enclosed in
the mail aud returned to Cleveland.
He has heard no more from them. It
is probable, however, judging from
CIeveland's action during the epi-
demic last summer, that before this
time they have issued another poster
taking it all back.

WASHINGTON.

WASHINGTON, July 11.-Owing
to the inability of the Department
of Justice to furnish with official
copies of the new Judicial law, the
bill not having been disposed Of in
time to print the required number
of copies for distribution earlier,
considerable embarrassment has
been occasioned with regard to the
mode of drawing jurors in con-
formity with its provisions in the
courts which convene this month.
On account of not receiving an
official copy the time of the Ten
nessee court has been postponed
until September.
The Judge of the Circuit Court
for the Eastern District of Virginia
not having text of the new law,
ordered the Deputy Marshal
to summon jurors und un-
der the old law, upon
calling at the Department to-day
and receiving a copy of the act,
the Deputy Marshal expressed the
opinion that it would not be safe to
proceed under the old law in the
face of the provisions contained in
the new. Hence, it is not unlikely
that this court will follow the ex-
ample set by the State of Tennes-
see, and postpone its term until fall.
Copies of the new law will be for
warded by the Department as rap
idly as possible.
WASHINGTON, July 12.-The At
torney General has issued a circular
to the United States Marshals call
ing their attention to the fact that
the Judicial bill for the fiscal year
ending June Both, 1880, is appor-
toned into specific appropriations
and can not be diverted to other
expenses under any circumstances.
The blanks for acquisitions also
accompany the circular and Mar
shals are directed to use the money
only for the :" fees of jurors" " fees
of witnesses" " fees for the support
of the United States prisoners" and
miscellaneous expenses. Mar
shals are especially directed by
accompanying blanks, to observe
"that the specific sum which is ad-
vanced from one appropriation,
must be expended for the purposes
of such appropriation alone" and
as each division of expenses has its
peculiar appropriation, the accounts
therefore of each appropriation
must be kept distinct and separate
from the accounts of another ap'
preparation; and further, requiring
them to keep their books, SO they
will show how much has been ad
vanced to them from each appropria
ton, and how much is to its dali,
credit.

DETROIT, July 12.-Pontiac,
Port Huron and st. Clair, in this
State, were visited yesterday by a
destructive storm of wind and ight-
ming. At Pontiac, the spires of
the Congregational and Episcopal
Churches, and the Jail, were seri-
ously damaged, and number of
houses were unroofed. The dam
age to crops and orchards in the
vicinity of Pontiac is very great.
At Port Huron, the new Methodist
Church and other buildings were
blown down. The Grand Trunk
Railroad freight house was unroofed
and many houses and barns were
upset or unroofed.
As tar as known no lives were
lost. The storm here interrupted

FOREIGN NEWS.

LONDON, July 12.-It is an
neunced that the Prince of Wales,
Duke of Edinburgh, Duke of Con-
naught and the Grown Prince of
Sweden will act as pall-bearers at
the funeral of the Prince Imperial
to-day. Various accounts mention
that there is some amount of i'll
feeling in France at the great
demonstration of mourning in the
land for the dead Prince. No
member of the French Ambassy in
London will be present at the
funeral.
In the French Senate on Friday
motion to postpone the nomination
of a committee on Jules Ferry s
education bill, because Of the alb
sence Of the Bonapartists, was
resisted by NJ. Pelletan, Republican,
on the ground that they were not
absent because of genuine senti.
ment of mourning on their part,
but had gone.,to England in search Of
pretenders. The nomination Of the
committee was eventually postponed
till Tuesday next.
Marshal Courobert has come to
England, despite the official prohi-
bition against his attendance at the
funeral.
When the coffin was opened yes
teIday, the features of the Prince
were much disfgured, but were
recognizable by his teeth.
The weather is fine, but cool,
Crowds of people, dressed in mourn
ing, including large proportion Of
French, thronged London railway
stations as early as six o'clock this
morning. The entrance to the
Camden House is draped with
cream colored tapesty. In addition
to the royol personages previously
announced the following have ar
rived to attend the funeral
Princess Beatrice, Princess Of
Wales, Prince Christian and Prince
Edward, of SAKE Ariemour.
The funeral of the Prince Impe-
rial took place in accordance with
the arrangements already an
nounced. In addition to the no.
table persons heretofore mentioned
the Russian, German and Danish
Ambassadors to England were
present. A body of Paris work
men viewed the coffin previous tt
the funeral. 1t is estimated thai
the various sympathizers brought
boquets and wreaths sufficient tc
fill two vans to place on the grave

KNOXVILLE, Tenn, July z, 10.
To The Editor of the Commercial:
In your issue Of the 9Th inst. non
tlce the following paragraph:
BASEBALL CHAMPIONSHIP. = The
Riverside Baseball Club, of Memphis,
won the championship of Tennessee
aud Alabama, over the Lincks, of
Nashville, and the Chattanooga Forts.
For the Knoxville "Redsn [ would
state that on the 9th inst. the River
side Club, Of Memphis, played them
for the championship of Tennessee

the game by score of Is to in five
innings. The agreement was to play

MISSOURI.

:
ST. LOUIS, July 12.-To-day
was as warm as yesterday, the ther-
mometer showing nearly the same
range. The mercury is falling to-
night, however, and advices from
Yankton states that the barometer
is rising and the mercury falling.
This indicates a break Of the
heated term at this point. Only 4
postrations from heat were reported
to-day, none of which were fatal.
Whatever apprehension prevailed
here growing out of the reported
existing yellow fever at Memphis,
has been very much allayed to-day
by advices from that city and st,
Louis and has relapsed into her
nominal condition.
