Yellow Fever Notes.

Surgeon Porter, at Jacksonville, has tele-
graphed to Surgeon General Hamilton, as fol-
lows:
'The agent of the Clyde steamer at Mayport
assures me that if the steamers are permitted to
bring passengers for non-infected points in
Florida he will guarantee not to allow them to
land at Mayport, but will have them transferred
to other steamers. Freight for Jacksonville need
not to be stopped at ALL as it is not my desire
to hamper commerce any more than consistent
with public safety. Under the above agree
ment think steamers could continue to run.
Advise your sanction. The tickets to Jackson

LORD sACKvILLE's SALE.
A Great Jam mt the British Legation
Building.
EFFECTS OF THE LATE MrNIsrER-A LIVELY
SCENE AND BRISK BIDDING.


SCENE AND BRISK BIDDING.
At his grandest reception the British minis
ter never had larger crowd in his house than
was there this morning. Neither Lord Sackville
nor any member of his family was present to re-
ceive the callers, and they were barred out Of q
large portion of the house. The main hall, the
ballroom and the dining-room, were thrown
open to that part of the public having cards Of
admission. The master of ceremonies on this
occasion was Mr.. Latimer. the auctioneer.
The assemblage was impelled partly by
curiosity and partly from desire 10 purchase
something that once did service for the British
minister. large number of Washngton's
society people and people who want something

crowd; then there was a crush. The sale be-
gan promptly at IL o'clock. At that hour it
was almost impossible to get into the front
door of the building, and the rooms we're so
packed that 1t was not only impossible
to move about, but there was no way
for any one. more TO work his way in.
The auctioneer was in the immense ballroom
and the china and glassware was on tables
against the wall. Hundreds Of people could
not get near enough to see what was being
sold, but there were plenty of buyers who did
not seem to care especially what they bought,
and pretty good prices appeared TO be bid.
Even three odd china covers, the dishes to
which had been broken or lost, were bid for
quite actively.
But this is absolutely 'orrid." exclaimed
one young lady, crushed in the thickest of the
crowd. But like quowd. don't you know"
she added. after getting her breath.
Many people will show their regard for MY
Lord Sackville by their collection of memen-
toes. Some who did not care especially for
glasses. water bottles, decanters, or china
ware waited in the dining-room, where there
were some valuable and attractive paintings,
embroideries. bric-a-brac, &c. A very at
tractive catalogue was presented for their con-
sideration. A book on Sensible Etiquette
felt sure Of a ready purchaser, because it was
quite English. Irish Essays" will probably
not be so well received Among the things
Lord Sackville has no further use for was a

antique brocade Of the time of Louis XIV, and
some dress goods. old and new.

PUBLIC PRINTER.
Candidates for the Position Before the
Public

Candidates for the position Of public printer
nave been unusually slow in placing their names
before the public. About the first in the field
was L. W. Fox, of the Weekly National Repui-
bean. He was followed very closely by August
Donath, of this city. Mr.. Donath was for
some time connected with the Crafts
man. Ex-Congressman Ward, of Ches-
ter, Pa, will, it is said, en-
deavor to divide the Pennsylvania influence
with Mr.. Donath. The latest candidate, John
s. Clarkson, of Iowa, is regarded the most
dangerous competitor yet in the field. Mr..
Clarkson is chairman of the republican national
committee, and he yields almost unlimited in
huence.

Liquor on an Excursion Steamer.
DECISION OF THE o. 8. SUPREME COURT IN
PENNSYLVANIA CASE.

DECISION OF THE o. 8. SUPREME COURT IN A
PENNSYLVANIA CASE.
The Supreme Court of the United States to-
day rendered an opinion in the case of Louis N.
Clark, plaintiff in error, against the common
wealth ofPennsylvania, appeal from the court OF
quarter sessions of the peace of Allegheny
county, Pa. Clark was part owner of vessel
licensed by the United States to engage in the
coasting trade, and while running the vessel as
an excursion steamer between Pittsburg and
Mckee Rocks was convicted of violation of the
state law requiring license to be taken out
for the sale of liquor. He made application to
the Supreme Court for a habeas corpus on the
ground that liquor was an article of commerce,
and that the action of the state of Pennsylvania
was violation of the provision of the Constitu-
ton granting Congress the exclusive right to
regulate interstate commerce. The Supreme
Court to-day denied the application on the
ground that there was nothing to show in the
record presented to the court that the question
sent up here had been raised in the court which
tried the Offense, and that therefore it could
not be told whether or not there was any reason
for the granting of a writ of error. Opinion

ONE RESULT OF THE BLOCKADE ON 18TH STREET.
A new phase has been put on the: matter of
the obstruction of 10th street extended
by the fences erected by persons who claim
that their property lines extend over this
street. The city post-ofice has found itself
embarrassed in delivering mail to the
persons living beyond the fence. The

mail cab. and is unable to get through or to
reach the blockaded section except by
making a detour of mile which
seriously delays him. The postmaster will

The Princeton college football eleven de-

afternoon on the Princeton athletic field by a
score of Is to g. The boys of orange and
black were wild with excitement in conse-
quence. and a mammoth bonfire was built on
the campus at night in celebration of the vic
tory. The Princeton team outplayed their OPP
ponents in nearly every point. and the fact
that the visitors scored at all was due to care
lessness on the part of their opponents The
Princetons were particularly strong in their
heavy rush line.
