Next Tuesday evening Mcintyre &
Heath's famous minstrel company will
appear at the Opera House. The sale OF
reserved seats will commence at Bau-
mer's music store this morning. The
Keokuk Democrat says of this com
pany:
The minstrels last evening opened the
season in Hannibal with fair patron

and Buckley, the novelties Of Professor
Bushnell, the Grecian mystery of Pro

eral Manager of the Illinois Central road,
called with Mr.. Sargent, Monahan, Hoge
and Murphy, at the Chicago, Burlington
& Quincy offices this morning and met
Messrs. Dexter, Peasly, Stone and Best
Ter. Mr.. Sargent acted as spokesmen in
behalf OF the late engineers and fremen
OF the Burlington, and urged that the
whole matter be left to arbitration; but
the railroad company objected that such
a proposition was in admissible ut the
present time as their ranks were sub
stantially full OF engineers and tiremen
who were entirely satisfied with the
rules and terms Of employment. The
situation OF these new men and the
terms on which they were engaged were
fully explained to Mr.. Sargent, who adj
mitted that the railroad company could
not consider any proposition looking to
their discharge. Mr.. Stone then urged
Mr.. Sargent to have the strike called off,
promising to consider applications from
the old men and to give US many Of them
work as he could.
