 New Spring French Satins and Cotton
 Dress Goods.
 Monson & Carpenter have opened the handsomest line of the above goods ever exhibited in the city, consisting of the latest novelties and choicest patterns. The new Mikado pattern is very desirable. Black and whites for mourning in the choicest styles. Ladies will find it to their in- terest to make their selection early, thus having 8 better assortment to select from. Please remember how scarce choice styles were last year, later in the son. Many of the patterns are confined to us, and cannot be found elsewhere; they are of the best quality imported.

 NEW HAVEN OPERA HOUSE.
 ''The World," which Has had such success elsewhere, will be presented tonight and it is pronounced by journals where it has been given a splendid attraction. The Madison, Ind., Courier says of it's presentation in that city: ''Never was there more delighted audience assembled within the walls of a building than that of last night to witness Little's World The manager gave all and more than promised; the scenery was there and the marvellous effects were most beauti- ful and thrilling. Our small stage appeared as big as the ocean; in fact, so artistic was the painting and mechanical arrangement of the scenes, that we forgot it was play, and, for the time being, gave ourselves up to the intense realism of the events passing before us like one in a dream. The first scene, second act, showed the deck complete of large steamer. The next was wide waste of water with only raft with despairing mariners upon it. Then ap- pears ship. It draws near and disappears. This one scene is alone worth the price of admission. The following scenes are com plete and appropriate, while the acting of the hero by MT. J. z. Little fully sustains the well earned reputation that preceded him: The supporting company were each and all competent and artistic, having no sticks or novices to mar and blur the continuity of the plot.

Court Notes.

Yesterday complaint was made to the grievance committee against Lawyers s. W. F.. Andrews and David Strouse and the complaints were filed with Simeon E. Bald win. The charges against MT. Andrews come from MT. Bishop, the blacksmith who has been prosecuting MT. Andrews crimi- nally in the City court and who claims that MT. Andrews appropriated at different times $960. 01 to his own use and which he had never paid back to MT. Bishop. Scarcely had this paper against Lawyer Andrews been filed than a second similar paper was handed into MT. Baldwin's office preferring charges against Lawyer Strouse. This is the effidavit of Antonio Guidio, bondsman for and brother of John Guidio, and he seeks to recover bond of $150 from MT. Strouse which he filed with him last spring.
 Edward P. Creed. a young eolored man, was fined $1 and costs in the City court yes terday for helping himself to three cigars and several drinks in Joseph Meyers saloon on Eaton street on Tuesday while the propri- etor was out of the room.

Hermann delighted another large
audience at the Academy of Music last
evening with his many mystical and in
comprehensive tricks. He drew lemons
from peoples noses, silver dollars from
their ears and heads; caused a young
man whom he called up ON the stage to
open his mouth and disgorge pack OF
playing cards; gave man ten silver
dollars to hold, and caused the number
to be increased to fifteen when he came
to count them, and a score of other tricks
equally as mystifyiDg. causing many In
the audience to jump at the conclusion
that he is close relation to a certain
gentleman who is supposed to wear
horns. One OF his most wonderful tricks
is entitled "The Slave Girls Dream" in
which he is assisted by Madam Hermann.
The apparatus used is an invention of
Herrnann's, and In appearance resembles
a small cot bedstead A small stool is
placed on this, on which the Madam
stands. She then extends her arms, and
nickel plated lube, about four feet in
length, is placed under each arm. Herr
mann them pours something from bottle
on a handkerchief which he holds to her
nose, and In minute or two she seems
as though under the influence of ether.
Tbs stool is then removed and she appears
supported by the tubes under her arms
One of these is taken away and she then
rests with one arm on the other tube, in
which position she is caused to represent
several different characters. This trick
is no doubt done on strictly scientific
principls, and it is probable that cleo
tricity has more to do with 1t than any
other agency. The performance will be
repeated this evening and tomorrow
afternoon and evening. AT the matinee
bon-bons, flags &C., will be distributed
among the children.

evening about 6 O'Clock the road was
clear for the Texan ponies of Mr.. q. M.
McCrea. He had just left his home for
an errand to Mr.. Webber's coal yard,
and while said ponies were standing Ia
front OF Mrs. James Smalley's store,
the ponies being restive, and possibly
frightened by the noisy boys playing,
turned suddenly around, before Mr.
McCIea could get at their heads or
reach the lines, and dashing furiously
up the hill and through the village, and
over the new bridge and partly up the
second large hill beyond, came in con-
tact with Mr. Geo. W. Groves two

but they were soon checked. One OF
the ponies, Ned, dropped dead in the
road; the other, Dollie, was found
standing to the tongue of the wagon
somewhat crippled and slightly bruised,
These ponies were caught wild In Texas
about six years since; Ned was 10 years
