YOUNG LILAC coTERIE,
Democratic Caucus.

Lively scrImmage in the Sixth Ward
 Last EvenIng-The Ring Successful but
 the BOlters Angry.
 The Democratic brethren in the Sixth ward met in caucus last evening in Franklin Hall. It was noisy meeting. MT. Thomas Leddy was chosen chairman. A motion was made that the chair appoint a committee ot five to name a committee of nine to report ticket at the primary Monday. The mo, ton was amended to give the house the pow. CT to appoint the committee of five. The vote was very nearly tie and both sides yelled themselves hoarse To describe the scene that ensued would tax the powers of the most graphic and forcible of Democratic stump speakers The question was finally settled by allowing those who favored the amendment to go on one side, and those opposed on the other. The amendment was lost and the motion pre-. vailed. Several hot disputes arose. Cries of s'No gagging the caucusr' t'Had it all fixed up!" twill be heard in the primary if moi here!" etc, were heard. The chair named as the committee Dan Leishner. Thomas F. Carroll, John Belcher, George Och and Ben iamin Reilly. They reported the names ol Curtis F. EVarts, Thomas F. Carroll, George Och, Benjamin Reilly, John McHugh, D. H. Wagner, Patrick Tierney and D. Lysaght The other side gave vent to loud expressions oi disapproval and there was talk of holding g bolting caucus, but the scent of the beer that came up from the lower regions through the open doors was too strong 8 temptation and they all hurried down. How ever. they said they would make a strong effort to defeat the ring insthe primary, when an interesting time may be expected Ed ward Bellew, who led bolt at the last cleo tion, was welcomed back into the fold last evening

Evacuation Day.

 BAttery-Act1vtty 1n Military Circles.
 Tomorrow night the Second regiment and the Second Company Governors Foot Guard leave for New York on the steamer Elm City to take part in the Evacuation day pro. gramme. Information was received last night that the Guiltord and Clinton com. panies of the battery will go if horses can be obtained for them. General Smith went to New York last night on the midnight train to order fifty horses for them. Captain Lee and Lieutenant Fowler, of Guilford, have been very energetic in their endeavors to have the battery go. The Fifth battalion will leave here by rail tomorrow night.
 The adjutant generals permit is as follows: necticut National Guard are hereby granted perms- sion to leave the State under to participate in the day psEads s and exercises in New
 Second regiment, Colonel Charles P. Graham com handing Third Regiment, Colonel William H. Tubbs Crofut commancing; Fifth battalion, Major F. M. Welch commanding; Company F. First regiment. A, Captain William H. Lee commanding.
 II. The commanding officers above named will re- port with commands to BEgadier General g. R. Smith, commanding 0. N. G., in New York at such time and place as he may direct for assignment in line for the parade. The several commands must leave return to the State not later than nine m November 27, 1883.
 By order of the connmander-in-chief,
 D. N. COUCH, Adjutant General.
 Brigadier General s. R. Smith has received word from Colonel Tubbs that the Third reg iment had reconsidered it's action aud would attend the Evacuation day parade-possibly the whole regiment. Every company of the Fourth regiment is going, so that it will be a full regiment.
 In one respect, and that very important one, and one that cannot fail of attracting at- tention, the uniform of the Connecticut brig. ade will show marked difference from the other State troops that will be in line. The soldiers will be uniformed alike in service dress, every officer and man from the bripa- dier general down to privates wearing the style of overcoats as furnished by the State, and fatigue cap.
 The soldiers who are going to New York should be particular to wear easy shoes with heavy soles. The march will be 8 tedious one chiefly over the Belgian pavement of Fifth avenue and Broadway. Badly-fitting trouble. In addition to the regular parade equal distance in reaching it's place in line and in returning after the parade.
 In the arrangement of the parade the President of the United States and the Gov ernors from the various States accepting in- vitations will have positions on the right of the line. Two hundred carriages have been provided for the purpose. New York's Gov ernor comes first, Massachusetts, second, and Connectlcut's third, so that Governor Waller will be near the head of the line All the Governors and their staffs will be quartered at the Fifth Avenue Hotel by the general committee.

Sale of Valuable Property on Orange
 Street.
 fine piece of real estate on Orange street, next below the Bowditch furniture stores, be- longing to the estate of the late Henry White, has been sold to Professor Simeon E. Baldwin, who it is rumored will before many months erect handsome new building there. The land is forty.twe feet front and ninety. two deep, and upon it is the brick house where Dr. Stearns, the dentist, has his office, and includes also one of the stores occupied by Platt & Thompson. A right of way in the driveway next the Bowditeh property goes with it. The property was gold for front foot, which is about the figure that Orange street land so near the great mercan- tile center commands.

Yale Interests.

What is Thought of the Action of H@r-
 yards Faculty The Thanksgiving Game will Probably be Played Either With Harvard or PrInceton-Other Mat ters.
 The November Lit will be issued Tuesday and will contain the prize essay.
 The senior lectures which should be given l this morning have been postponed to &C., i commodste those who wish to go to New l York.
 | Comment on the strange action of the Har- yard faculty in forbidding ths team to play football is decidedly unfavorable. The reason given is considered puerile and the real one is thought to be Harvard's continued defeats. The Yale team have received word that the Harvard Football association will endeavor to gain permission to play Thanksgiving day. Should this be refused it will cause loss to Yale of from two to three thousand dollars. The Yale eleven have offered to modify or do away with the objectionable rules on that day.
 The team started for New York yesterday afternoon They will stay at the Grand Union. Tompkins will probably be able to play. The team will be as follows: Rushers, FarweIl, Bertron, Hull, Williams, Peters, Iompk1ns ana Knapp; quartef-OacA, 1Wom- bly; half backs, Terry and Richards; back, Bacon.
 The Shelf juniors will have cut this noon, many intending to see the Princeton game in New York. Evidently the demoralizing influences of football do not have much effect on the Yale faculty. Harvard defeated the University of Michi gan Thursday by the score of one touchdown to one safety or three points to one. Tomorrow evening there will be praise meeting in Battell chapel. Mir. D. S. Knowl. ton and quartette from the Glee club will sing. Solos are expected from MT. BoDney and MT. Bushnell.
 MT. Seaver's gymnasium class has dwin- dled to seven members.
 It said that the faculty has requested Ike to leave the campus for good. The good work should not stop here.
