Special Dispatch 10 the Register.
SrEUBENvILLE, O., April 4.-This evening
at half-past seven, Robert Love, the de-
fested Republican candidate for Mayor, as
saulted P. B. Conn, proprietor OF the Her
aid, on Fourth street, with q cane, striking
him three heavy blows on the head, knock
ing him down, inflicting serious injury.
The trouble grew out OF an article which
appeared in the Herald last evening Sc
verely criticising Love as a candidate. Love
surrendered to the Mayor. lie will have
trial Friday at P. NJ. The affair ca1sed
much excitement, as the Herald supported
Love before the election.
The following is the article which
aroused the wrath of Love: The Repuoli-
can candidate for Mayor was not a person
for whom it was possible to ge. up any
enthusiasm. Without vouching for any OF
the charges of his enemies ii is clear that
party who, inside OF eighteen months had
been defeated for office in a county having
q majority of / 500 for the party he repre-.
sented, was not the party to head ticket
In hot political contest, with one OF the
silrewdest politicians of the community pit
ted against him. There is no use mincing
matters. If the Republican party expects to
retain its supremacy in this city or county
it must head its ticket with better class
of individuals. 1t cannot carry persons
charged rightfully or wrongfully of every
crime in the decalogue, not even exclud-
ing the highest one of taking human life
1t cannot expect to succeed with standard
bearers who have put themselves on it per
petually from time immemorial, and who
have been sat down on by the people time
and again. There must be limit some
where in point OF time to perpetual candi-
dates for office.

AN INFANT DRoMEDARY.
An CncOuth Addition TO the Central
Pork MenagerIe.

n
Park Menagerie.
New YORK, April 4.-There has been an
interesting increase in the family OF birds
and beasts which is assembled around the
old arsenal in Central Park. The latest is
young camel, which began its career OF
earthly troubles on Saturday night. Its
first experience of life was rare one for a
camel, for it found itself reposing in heap
of snow. Nevertheless it did not pine for
the hot sands of the Great Sahara which
ought to have been its native heath,
but proceeded to make itself as COM.
Portable as it could until day
dawned and keeper removed the youthful
quadruped TO more comfortable quarters.
For six hours the little infant was not per-
mitted to draw noarishment. The old Mrs.
Camel was inclined to be ungracious to her
little one and had to be tied up with strong
ropes before she would permit the caresses
of it. 1t is said that the babe is about the
size of colt, and is so ugly that if it ever
catches sight of itself it will go off into a
DE- rk corner and die. 1t consists OF legs
principally, these are long, cumbersome
and apparently very much in their own
way. 1t has a back Just like any other
persons. There is no hump visible yet.
The keeper says the young beast will
sprout hump in time, and be as proud OF
it as boarding school boy OF the first down
on his lip. The infants neck moreover,
is so short it could not eat grass, were there
any TO eat, unless lying down. This incon-
venience will also disappear in time, and
the neck will stretch out and double back
in the manner most approved by Camels
which have reached the years of discretion.
This camel, while it bears no resemblance
to Artemus Wards kangaroo, and fails TO
jump or squeal to any pernicious extent, is
nevertheless an amusing little cuss. This
animal is the third one born in the park.
His mother was born there before him,
and he is, therefore, true American.

ton, he studied law and soon afterward
began practice at Corydon, the county seat
of Harrison county. He was from the first
successful as q lawyer, and took an
active part in politics in his State
Shortly before the outbreak OF the late
civil war he was elected Representative in
the State Legislature, and in 1851 he was
chairman of the House Committee on
Military Affairs. While occupying this
position he operated so skilfully and ener-
getiCally with Gov. Morton, and IN the or
SANITATION Of the State militia and in rails
ing and forwarding trrops, that the latter,
on the 18th of September, 1861, commits
stoned him as Lieut.. Colonel Of the
3Sth Regiment of Indiana Volunteers.
ON the 10Th of March, 1852, he was pro-
moted to be Colonel of the SD Indiana,
and on the lIth OF August, 1864. to be
Brigadier General of Volunteers. He par.
ticipated in the siege of Corinth, siege and
capture of Vicksburg, and siege of Jackson,
Miss, and up to the Sth of January, 1854,
commanded the 3rd Brigade of the 4th Di'
yison of the nth Army Corps. He was
breyetted Major General for distinguished
galianty, and after January, 1864, COM
manded the Fourth Division of the 18th
Army corps until July the same year,
when he was severely wounded in the &C
ton before Atlanta. lie was mustered out
of service on the 3Oth of April 1866, and as
soon a. his health and strength were fully
restored he entered isto partnership with
Judge Butler Of New Albany, Ind, and re-
sumed the practice of law in
that city. During the war Jadge Gresham's
personal relations with General Grant were
very friendly and cordial, and when the
latter became President for the first time
in 1865. he appointed Mr.. Gresham Dis
trict Judge for the district of Indiana. This
position he still holds. In 1851 he was
strongly urged for a place in the Cabinet
OF President Garfield, and there is reason
TO believe that the representations OF his
friends in his behalf were regarded with
rnnch favor.

NO FOUNDATION FOR
The Sensational story About the
Guards at Garfield's Tomb

Guards at Garhelo's . EOmo-
WASHINGTON, April Am effort has been
made to create sensation out Of the tomb
of Garfield. The report has been sent to
Washington that many OF the soldiers on
duty as guards in the Cleveland cemetery
have gone crazy, that the coffin was Open
ed every time the guards were relieved and
new ones pnt in their places. The constant
connection with the tomb and its surround
ings was said to have the injurious effect
on their brain that their minds become
impaired. The reports Of this nature are
purely sensational, and originated with
parties who had no knowledge OF the mat
ter. IL Was learned from the officials at
the War Department that there was no
reason for the circulation OF the sensa-
,;or n reports mentioned. Early in June,
1850 an order was issued prohibiting the
onsnin0 of the coffin. Before that order
wss issUed il had been customary for every
officer when he took charge OF the guard

rigbt. That is now abolished. Secre'

THE IYNcHBURG STRIKE.
The Eject Of Istrsducing white Labor
Into Tobacco NanufAetare,

I"
Into Tobacco AanufAetare,
LUNcHBuRs, Va, April 4.-The trouble
that has been brewing for long time in
tobacco manufacturers is fast terminating.
In this manufacture, from time immemor-
ial. the work has been done BY colored help,
and the trade has been singularly exempt
from strikes. OF late years the colored
working people have been getting it into
their heads that they are not paid enough
for their labor. Nearly every department
in tobacco manufacture is skilled labor. the
operators being trained up to it from child.
hood and the introduction OF unskilled
labor except through the regular channels
of training is an experiment that very few
manufacturers would dare to hazard. 1t
became necessary not long ago TO modify
prices, and the operatives here went on .
strike. The man nufacturers resolved to in
troduce white labor. To bring white labor
into tobacco factory is an innovation that
not only dispusts but alarms the operatives.
The new hands are neither skilled nor
economical as those who are out, but BY
Dilltgeat Coaching
by the heaps OF the departments few fac
tories are managing to get along and to
turn out goods with colored help. As
soon as the colored people become aware
that they are not absolutely essential TO
the tobacco business they made Q PROPOSE.
tion TO resume work at the modified
prices. The manufacturers, however, are
not satisfied to accept such bold fruits of
their victory. Trade is slack just now, and
will probably SO continue until the effect
of the rebate legislation is settled after the
lst Of June, which gives opportunity to
press for their rights further. According
ly yesterday they rejected the proposition
made by the strikers TO resume work, dis.
charging the Committee for Conference
and refused absolutely TO treat any further
with the laborers' association. There are
about twelve hundred Of the strikers, and
II is thought that they are receiving aid
from outside, but two more factories put
in white labor yesterday, and by the Tune
the present stocks are depleted by the June
and July trade will be able to turn out
work with this help il necessary; but har.
mony will probably be restored in ample
time to provide for all demands, after the
new legislation takes effect.
