THE RED CROSS OF GENEVA.
Meetfag of the Memphis Association
Hiram SibIey's Gift Of $4,000
Worth OF Seeds.

At meeting of the Memphis Association
of the Red Cross of Geneva, held at No. Is
Madison street, last night, the report of the
committee charged with the duty of distrib-
uting the $4,000 worth of seeds donated by
Hiram Sibley & Co., of Rochester and Chi
cago, was read and adopted. From it we
learn the distribution embraced the
of country lying between this city
and Vicksburg, and in Arkansas along
the White and Arkansas rivers 200 miles
away. The Yazoo valley was we'll
remembered, and the farmers in our
own immediate neighborhood were well sup
piled. A noble and timely gift, for which
Sibley & Co. have the thanks Of the Red
Cross and of the people of all this section,
it is gratifying to know that the committee
distributed ouly to the needy and suffering,
in a word put the seeds where they will do
the most good. The transfer company has
the thanks of the association for hauling the
seeds free of charge, Mr.. B. J. Semmes for
storing and handling them free OF charge,
Messrs. S. C. Toof & Co. for necessary
printing free of charge, and Ciapp &
Taylor for stationery free OF
charge. Several members were elected
and much other business transacted, after
which the association adjourned to the first
Tuesday in July. 1t is hoped that before
that time the gentlemen who have signified
their intention TO become members, will find
time to call upon the secretary, Mr.. Beasley,
at Is Madison street, sign the constition and

MILITARY NOTES.

The Louisville companies are bestirring
themselves.
The Chickasaws began their afternoon
drilling yesterday.
The Porters will go into camp in spite of
the Nashville newspapers.
The Quapaw Guards will go TO Louisville
with twenty-four men, and say that they
would not enter if the number were raised
to thirty-two.
A Louisville paper says: "The Chickasaw
Guards will be beaten in the drill here on
the 2Sth, by the Crescent Rifles, ii they don't
look sharp, and that's what's the matter
with them"
The Louisville argus announces that Csp-
tain ii. B. Grant has decided that the mini
mum of men in the Louisville drill shall be
twenty -four men, the maximum forty, and
that no extra credit shall be given for extra
numbers.
Mr.. Joshua F. Speed, chairman of the board
of trustees of the Louisville Legion, died
last Monday afternoon, after prolonged i'll
ness, at the age OF sixty-eight. He was
buried on Wednesday afternoon, the officers
of the Legion attending in uniform as hon.
orary pall-bearers. Mr.. Speeds loss is deep
~ felt, as he had done more for the organi-
cation than any other man in the city OF
State.
The Gate City Guards, OF Atlanta, have
had row. Captain Joseph +. Burke wa:
requested by twenty-five members to resign
which he promptly refused to do and threat
ened to prefer charges against them. He
then denounced the author of certain state
ments, without mentioning names, and was
bonn barded with a shower OF spittoons, one
of which struck him on the head, and there
came near being free fight, but order was
finally restored. Seems TO be pretty lively

house. at Cairo, have decided to observe an
expectant attitude until the Turkish COM

ton Sin her own right" sdvisedIy. For
there are ladies and ladies. Some are
called "my lady" by virtue of ,heir husbands
being ''city knights" successful grocers, or
other traders in London or otker cities. There
are also the wives of baronets of old creation,
and the wives Of peers. / am not prepared
TO depreciate peeresses az professors OF the
art of putting down; but unless the peeress
has been born in the purple she is apt TO
miss many opportunities OF displaying this
gift. Perhaps the daughter of peer who
has married another peer affords its highest
expression. The male smoking parties are
the fashion. Sometimes they follow a dinner
party, and the gentlemen retire to the draw
ing room, enter in, and dwell there with the
other men who arrive any hour up TO mid
night. Very often there is music, and ex-
cellent music, and everybody smokes and
eats caviare sandwiches and drinks Pemmery
or Bollipger, or brandy and pol until 2 or 3
o'clock in the morning. Sir George Womb
well, who had such a narrow escape for his
life at BalaclaEa, and again in the
terrible hunting accident when Sir
Thomas Slipgsby was drowned, gave
grand smoking party few nights ago.
The company was both distinguished and
"exalted." The Prince of Wales was pres
ent, and also Lord Arlington, once known as
"BuDny" StHrt; Sir Osen Lanyon, of Trans
vaal fame; Mr.. Oscar Clayton, who cures the
govt and tells good stories; Sir Julius Bene-
dict, the composer of the Lilly of Killar-
ney;;" DIR. Quain, physician nd deerstalker;
Mr.. Bancroft, the actor and manager of the
Haymarket Theater; Mr.. Coghlan, Mr.. Ed
mund Yates, CT the World; Mr.. Edward
Lawson, of the Daily Telegraph, Mr.. Toole
and some threescore more of artistic and
literary celebri{ts and men about town not
to know whom is TO "argue oneself I'M
known" The wonderful Italian boy, Cesa-
rino Galeotti, who not only plays well on
the piapoforte but improvises on any theme
given him, went through his remarkable
performances; Mr.. Arthur Cecil and Mr..
George Grossmith sang and played, and Mr..
Toole gave his amusing "Iectures" and
Trying Magistrate" All present enjoyed
themselves very much, and the party was an
immense success.

NO CASE
NJ sde out by Ihe Prosecution I'm the
Golden City Cases.

The Golden City cases were called in the
Criminal Court yesterday morning, but the
prosecutors all fell through, as everybody
was certain they would. The only witnesses
examined by the State were John Harvey, a
deck passenger, Captain james Lee, Captain
John Hardin and n. w. Spsers. Harvey
testified he had been sleeping on
top of the pile of jute during the
passage from New Orleans, and was there
when the fire broke out He saw
Wash Smith try to extinguish the flames,
and he also saw lamp in his hand, but
could not tell whether or not the lamo had
set the bales OF jute on fire. He came here
from Kentucky TO testify in the case.
Captains Lee and Hardin and Mr.. Speers
were examintd and testified that jute was
not such inf1ammable material as one would
suppose. Captain Lee said it was not bit
more dangerous than cotton. the case was
given to the jury, which was allowed to go out
for few minutes. Judge Horrigan told the
attorney-geueral he did not think he had
made out his case, and he couldn't let a YER
dict stand on such evidence. The attorney
general agreed with the judge, and the jury
was instructed TO bring in verdict OF not
guilty. This releases Captain Mcintyre, the
two mates-Hill and Bondurant-and Wash
Smith, captain of the watch, from all re-
snonsibility

THE literary event Of last week in Paris
was the publication Of Victor Hugo's great
est drama, T5r9sem1da. Besides the OBJ
FICTION the poet has to it, being put upon
the stsgs in his lifetime, it would be impos-
sible to attempt it, as the leading roles could
not be adequately filed by any living artist.
The PIris correspondent OF the New Y ork
Herald says "ihere is Shakesperean grand
eur and power in this most original aud
noble work. The poet has not taken the
vulgar view OF the stern founder of the
inquisition, arguing that no human being
could have heen 50 fandishly cruel as
"Torquem ada" for mers love OF cruelty. He
has assumed that his mons;rous and pitiless
hero was an honest bat deluGed fanatic, who
sincerely believed that by burning the bodies
Of his victims he was doing God good SER
vice, and saving them from the torment of
eternal fire."

INTERoCEANIC CANALS.
RELATIONS BETWEEN THE UNITED STAT
AND GREAT BRITAIN ON THE SUBJECT.

RELATIONS BETWEEN THE UNITED STATES
AND GREAT BRITAIN ON THE SUBJECT.
WASHINGTON, June Goa May Sth last
| Secretary FrelInghuysen sent long disp stch
| to Minister Lowell on the subject of the re-
| lations between Great Britain and the United
| States 10 the various interoceanic canal pro-
| jects. Without, in so many words, declaring
the Clayton-Bulwer treaty sbrogated, the
secretary of state asks our minister at Lon
don to call the attention of Lord Granville
| to two points, either one of which serves to
bar the claim made by Her Msjesty's gov
| eminent that the terms of the treaty of 1850
| bind the United States to accept the propo-
sition to share its control and protectorate
over the canal with Great Britain or any
other European power. The points are
| these
First-That through violation of the terms OF
the treaty by Great Britain in gradually magni-
lying what was at hrst british settlement IN
| into British settlement and possession, the
treaty has become vGidable and may at any time
Second--That the treaty, so far as its terms were
specified. applied to a canal along the Nicaraguan
other canals or railways being expressly relocated
to future treaty, the stipulatens of which have
not yet been agreed upon. and TO whose forming
and ratification Freinghuysen presents strong OBJ
iections-
Having made these points and having
also gone over some we'll understood and
reasonable grounds of opposition on the part
of the United States to foreign intervention
in the matter of the canal az being contrary
to the Monroe doctrine and dangerous TO
the material interests of this country, the
secretary of state rests his case with an
expression of confidence that the differences
between the two governments will be salts
factorily adjusted before the canal will be
built.

THE HEGIRA To CABRERA.

ROME, June 6.-Large numbers Of per-
sons are starting from all parts of Italy for
Caprera to be present at the funeral of Carl
baldi. A steamer left Genoa with 300
veterans. Two steamers have started from
Palermo, two from Leghorn and one from
Naples, all crowded with people. The sup
ply of boats is inadequate to accommodate
those desiring to go TO Caprera. Influence is
being exerted with members of Garlbaldi's
family for the transfer of his ashes to the
mainland. The Duke of Genoa and four
masters of ceremonies will represent King
King Humbert at the funeral.
