A MAN named Redd, discharged Street Su-
pervisor, at Louisville, made an attempt to
assassinate Mayor Baxter. Redd was only three
feet from the Mayor when he shot, and the
Mayor himself says he does not see how the
ball missed him, as the weapon was pointed
directly at his body. The cause for the at
tack was the discharge of Redd. Redd claims
to have spent $1,000 towards Ba1ter's
election.
The London Times vigorously denounces the
proposed application of the Monroe doc

sources at his command, or to charge themselves

SECRETARY ScHuRz has received information
from Los Pinos that a number of persons have
already trespassed the Ute reservation by
stalking off claims and setting up ranches, and
th,t within two weeks more the Ute reserva-
tion will be fairly swarming with trespassers.

SA PARIS special says that the e1citemena
aroused by the discussion and rejection of
Article continues to rage in all parts of France,
and serious Governmental complications are
likely to result from it. It is now given out
that President Grevy, piqued by the obstinacy
of the Assembly, has determined upon rigid
enforcement of existing laws against the
j Jesuits, Redemptorist Fathers, Marists, and all
other unrecognized Orders. This amounts to
the virtual expulsion of all these people from
the country. The Vatican is interposing in
their behalf, and has already forwarded very
vigorous protest. The Orleanists are endeavor-
ing to concentrate their strength and arrange q
programme. They held meeting at Neurilly
on the goth, the anniversary of the death Of
Queen Marie Amelia.
The banquet extended by the Cincinnati
public to Southern merchants on the event Of
the inaugural excursion over the now com
pleted Cincinnati Southern Railway, is charac
, terized as of the grandest events of thu
kind ever before given on the American cont
} nent, and, in point Ct number, we may say
, unsurpassed in the history of the world. Th'
city was gaily decorated and everything dom
, by that generous public to make the visiting
Southerners to feel themselves at home, or, a
t we may say, to make them feel as returned
{ prodigal son. No expense was sparet
in any direction to crown the event a hand
, some success, and the visiting merchants, VIII
l hail from the combined Southern States, wer
reputed jolly set of the typical prosperou
Southerner. On the night of the arrival Q
q the excurson, the city was one blaze of illumi
s nation and glory, the entire populace seemin
e to have turned out to greet them, and all nigh
s long, the ringing of bells, and cheering an
y hurrahing filled the air with merry pea
a We cannot go into the details of the banque
itself. Suffice it to say, there was plenty
J. the best, to which two thousand people in on
=, body sat down, and drinking, and tSastng, an
!, joking and speech-making, with the additio

n pidity. The Southern Railway Is done, u ne
channel of commerce is opened up, and doub

happy over the great success, and its crownir
event.
- WE have finally found it necessary to tai
y cognizance of the scandal now attracting q
u tention at Washington, so notorious is the ca
becoming. Miss Jennie Raymond, a your

- charged Senator Ben. Hill, of Georgia, wi
~ having seduced her and being the father of h

was published, retracting the charge, to viii,

y Raymond, who, on her arrival at Washingto
