Disorderly Darkey.

General Meringo Richardson, young
darkey man of very unprepossessing ap-
pearance, was before the Recorder this
morning charged with being disorderly.
His step father appeared against him
and said the young man had made a
practice lately Of coming home and
levying contributions from his neither
until the treasury had become greatly
depleted. When he was refused money
he began breaking up the furniture and
cursing his mother, until, now, she
was afraid to sleep In The house.
When he, the father, came home,
the son was always quiet and docile,
Last night be came home and found
the young man in a very belligerent
mood, and wanted to fight with pistol
wanted one ba-a-d-and would fight
anybody. lie was, therefore, arrested.
Richardson this morning talked very
glibly and insanely to the Recorder, say
ing he had been blacksmith for a
number of years and been hustled
about under horses feet, and when
he went home he could find nothing
to eat but piece Of corn-bresd. He
said he swore only to himself, had con-
tracted the habit of swearing from being
under horses feet in great danger, shoe
ing them, and when he was in danger
he had to swear. He was studying his
history and dictionary that night and
had made no disturbance. They could
look on Dullnig's statute book and see
If he did not pay for flour, etc., etc. He
was fined S. by the Recorder.

First and Second Methodist.

A young man had always accompanied his
parents to the First Methodist Church. One
Sunday morning his father was surprised
when, in reply to Are you ready, Johni" the
young fellow said: 81 believe, father, that
will attend the Second Methodist this morn
ing" Upon this the old gentleman departed
for the First Methodist, in which sanctuary he
was a shining light and a great power around
the amen corner. The deacon, although
Woodworking Christian, also believed in the
good things of mother earth, and had plen-
tifully supplied wine cellar, which las he
knew that the young were liable to be indiS-
Greet he kept under lock and key For several
weeks the deacon had noted the hollow sounds
in his wine casks, and he also noticed that his
son had taken great liking for the Second
Methodist Church. On the following Sunday
the deacon again asked his son to go to the
First Methodist but John replied that he had
Ond Methodist. The deacon quietly departed
and John, with three companions, who had
been In waiting,went to the cellar where they
had been all along secretly INDUCING In the
deacon's fine old wines. John flew to the door
and tried to insert the key, but could not find
the keyhole He struck a match and saw!
with surprise. that the keyhole had been
plugged and that very strong, able-bOdied
paddock had been attached to the door. As
the rays of light from the fiickering match re-
thing white, upon which was some charactere-

words: Second Methodist closed for re-

Illness of Senator sabin.

Senator Sabin OF Minnesota left Balti-
more by steamer for Boston, with his wife
and the two little girls he has adopted.
He is too ill to travel by rail, and this trip
will give him four days at sea- which the
physicians think will be very beneficial to
him. Upon reaching Boston Mr. Sabin
will so to some quiet place on the seashore
ior mouth or two, by which
time he hopes to be able to re-
turn to his home in Minnesota. He has
remained in Washington against the pro-
tests oil his doctors to look after some
matters that are OF pressing Importance to
his constituents, and his condition has
grown worse instead OF improving, until
his physicians and friends are seriously
alarmed. His doctor insists upon absolute
quiet and freedom from care, and has for
hidden him to look at his correspondence
or do any mental or physical exer-
tion. He has even prohibited him from
reading the newspapers. During the last
three years, in fact, ever since his election
to the senate, Mr.. Sabin has had more
than his share of trouble. For years he
had been working from twelve to sixteen
hours a day, and spending at least one
third OF his time upon the cars and wien
his financial troubles came his health was
in no condition to sustain them. He has
carried the load, however until the last
few weeks, and maintained his social po-
sition, and looking after the interest OF
his constituents with Jealous industry,
ever at the expense OF his health and pri-
vate interest.

A Terrible Knife Thrust,

New York dispatch:-A knife thrust un-
der the eye that James Doyle received in
fracas at an early hour on the 29th inst,
was, in the opinion OF the doctors OF the
government hospital, one OF the most des-
perate that ever came to their notice The
knife entered at the inner angle ofthe orbit
and penetrated the lachrymal bone, pass
ing downward, backward and slightly in
ward, in all three and u quarter inches.
Before Doyle was brought to the
hospital one OF his friends attempted to
extract the knife, and in SO doing broke
it off at tho rivet. To remove
the blade was very difficult. DIR. Pr. Preden
procured a common file and made n small
groove on both sides OF the blade, and with
an instrument known as Il ''lion" forceps
began to pull. The doctor is II muscular
young man. weighing nearly two hundred
pounds, and he had to use his full strength
with both hands in the forceps to remove
the knife blade, while the night orderly
firmly held the patients head between his
hands with q vice-like grip. Doyle never
WINGED during the terrible ordeal, but bore
his suffering with admirable bravery. The
knife blade was turned over to the police.
