A Civil Rights Suit Against the Potomac
Ferry Company.

In July last, about the time the hot
wave rolled the highest the Potomac Ferry COM
pany advertised by the city press and dodgers
that the steamer City Of Alexandria would make
daily trips forty miles down the river and return,
carrying passengers for ten cents head. William
c. Johnson concluded TO take the ride, and on the
Sth of the month went to the wharf and presented
himself as passenger. He offered his money, but
was refused transportation on the ground, as he
alleged that he was Il cOlorcd man, and none OF
that race was desired on the excursion as pGrticI
pants. Failing TO obtain passage, he returned
home and sought satisfaction by entering suit
against the Ferry CefSpsny fu5 violation OF the
ciyarights BILL and prayed damages to the extent
allowed under the statute.
The trial took place before Justice Mac Arthur
in the Circuit Court yesterday, where Johnson re-
lated the circumstances from his view. The de-
tense put in evidence to show that the boat had
been chartered specially for the occasion by other
parties and asserted III al they had control over
the distinguishing of passengers so far As admit
ting some and excluding others from The privilege
OF enjoying the ride WIS concerned. Their part of
the contract merely TO permit the boat TO make
the trip.

AFTER THE FLOOD.
The ice Disappearing from the River
Pushing. the Work of Repair.

All danger of 4 repetition of the scenes
along the river front fr the past two days seems to
have been aVerted, and the water is nov running
through the Washington channel perfectly free of
f.! ice. The ice below the Long Bridge broke up
gradually yesterday and drifted out with the tide,
greatly to the relief of the owners of the different
steamers lying at the wharycS. The steamers Jane
Moseley. I. V. Arrowsmith, and George Ieary are
the only ones that will require any repairs, the
others getting off with few scratches The tug
boats employed by the railroad company in
cutting a channel succeeded in getting up
to the Arsenal before shutdown. and there
encountered clear water. Many old river men
state that the river has come back 70 its natural
channel on the Washington side after an absence
of twenty years, aud the depth and width Of the
channel at present would seem to justify the asser
ton. A large force of men in the employ of the
Baltimore and Potomac Railroad Company were
set to work repairing the break i'll the bridge and
when It became dark several calcium lights were
brought into requisition to expedite business. 1t
is expected that trains will be running south i'll
Two days, and that the other necessary repairs to
the bridge viii take week or ten days. The
ry-boats arc announced to resume their trips
this morning, the river is clear OF ice Ill both
channels to Alexandria.
Mr. ingalls, yesterday offered in the Senate
resolution, which was adopted without objection,
Gaining upon the District Commissioners Tor lniOr-
nation as to what damage has been done 10 the
Long Bridge by the recent food in the Potomac,
and whether, in repairing the same some method
cannot be adopted that will diminish the proba-
bility of foundations of the city hereafter. Mr. In
gals said his object was to call attention 10 the
fact that very large proportion of the disasters
that befell the city Of Washington on Saturday
last was undoubtedly due to the faulty construc-
ton of the Long Bridge. Later in the day the reso
luton was sent TO the District Commissioners
office.
The superintendent OF the canal ct Georgetown
reports that no damage has been done to the canal
from dam No. to Georgetown, and not any above,
so far as heard from.
Colonel Same. engineer, in charge Of the aque-
duet reports that larger bodies of water have here
tofore passed over the dam than during the recent
freShet, when the rise recorded did not exceed
five feet.
On previous occasions the water has risen as
high us ten feet. The Great Falls Aqueduct sus-
tanned no damage.
Knox's four horse coaches, carrying the mail,
and coaches used by the railroad company in
transferring baggage and passengers South. made
several trips yesterday over the Aqueduct Bridge
to Fort RunyOn, and revived memories of the old
stage-coach days.

ADJUSTMENTS LAST NIGHT.
FrOliques, ''OiIEettc," Theatre Conliquc,
and Other Entertainments.

Mr.. \. c. Goodwin, jr., and his very tai
cnted company commenced an engagement at the
National Theatre last evening, and Il large and
appreciatiyc audience was present The play, or
rather sketch, entitled Hobbies" has been pre-
Sented here before, and its merits are therefore
well known The limitations OF prominent and
well known actors by Mr.. Goodwin were very well
received and the distinctive pcculiaritias of each
were readily recognized. I" Hobbies" will be the
attraction during the balance of the week, and no
more pleasant evening can be spent than 10 wit
ness its many amusing and laughable features.
"0iivette," which has had so great a success in
Ncw York, was produced for the first time i'll
this city at Ford's Opera House last night. The
audience vas very large, and the applause was
emphatic and continuous. This opera is filed
with pleasing situations, the music is bright and
sparkling, the costumes are new and elaborate.
and the success was pronounced. "OIiyettc" will
hold the boards during the entire week, with
matinecs Wednesday and Saturday sfternoous.
ThcTheatre Comique wGScrowded last night with
highly delighted audience. The watery diff
Guilty of Saturday and the consequent interruption
of the performances served rather to increase the
desire of the patrons of this popular resort and as
each New face appeared the applause was loud
and long, while the old familiar stand
bys were most heartily welcomed. The great
English Specially Company furnished the bulk
of the attraction, and each performer fully justi
fed the reputation that had preceded him. The
same bill will be repeated during the entire week.
and nov that it is impossible to play the Female
Bathers" with real water, Jake Budd proposes to
give the girls chance on the ice which is now
being formed in accordance with Yennor's pre-
dictionS.
Equal Division s of T., Will give grand con-
cert and hop at Tallmadgc Hall on Wednesday
evening next. The programme for the concert
will be most attractive, embracing the principal
vocaliSts in the District, while in the subsequent
hop everything will be done to give qualification

PLUCKY POLO PLAYERS.
The Washington Boys win a Iard-FOughs
Esaffie.

The Washington Boys win a Hard-FOsiah4
Eiaffie.
The polo contest at the Rink last night,
between the West End Club, OF Baltimore, and the
Washington Club, attracted very large and fash
ionablc crowd to witness it.
Came was called promptly at hslfpast eight, and
from the outset it evident that there 10 be
no ehild's play in the struggle. Up and down The
long stretch OF asphalt the ball went skimming,
der the vigorous strokes of both clubs; and
as minute after minute elapsed without
either side making goal, the friends of the
Washiugtoas began TO fear that drawn game
would be the best that could be achieved. As the
time grew shorter tie players on both sides re-
doubled their efforts. Finally. III Of the wild
rallies in front of the WaShington's flags, Mac
Douglass dashed into the thickcst Of the melee,
ard with one noble stroke sent the ball whizzing
by every obstacle and straight between the Balti-
In0res' flags. The next inning was cut short
by the stroke of the time bell, and the
WashingIons stood winners by q score of
one to nothing. The last game Of the tourney will
be played in Baltimore tonight, aud as each club
has won equal number of games, the result of
to- nights contest will determine which club IS TO
be the yictoTs. The contestants were as follows:
Baitimores-McssFs. J. T. Towner, W. B. Oliver,
W. E. Dawson, Jesse Hay, J. r. Sutton, W. Z.
Klinelciter, and T. G.. Wilson. Washington
