TIIE JUDGESHIP.
The Contest for the Judgeship Waxeth Warm—Circulation of Petitions.
Law business was almost entirely suspended on Wall street yesterday on account of the warm contest now going on over the Vigo circuit judgeship. It is asserted as a certainty by those claiming to know, that the appointment will be made to-day, in order that the appointee may get himself in readiness for the convening of court Monday morning. While Judge Scott apparently has the inside, track, the friends of Nevitt are as busy as bees, and should he fail to receive the appointment, it will not be through the lack of faithful and unceasing work. Petitions were placed in circulation early yesterday morning by both parties to the race, and were still in circulation at a late hour last night, securing signatures from citizens other than members ot the bar. A gentleman remarked to a reporter last evening that he had met no less than seven men with petitions inside of half an lionr. While the Scott men admit that Nevitt has gained the most signatures, they claim to have on their list almost all the more influential men of the city, including sixty out of the seventy-live members of the bar, bankers, merchants, doctors, politicians, the nail works men, Clift & Williams' men, the Pluenix foundry men, grocers, in fact all those who go far toward forming the "solid" element of the community. Pierce's friends seeing that that gentleman was practically out of the race have joined the Scott men. And thus matters stand.
AMUSEMENTS.
Kelief Conccrt.
Though the audience in attendance was not large, it may be called good after the run of amusements of the last week. If any went last night from a sense of duty, virtue had its own reward in a very enjoyable and excellent entertainment. The house was appreciatis'e, applauding and encoring straight through the programme. tVhere all did so well a detailed account of a praiseworthy performance would include all. The Davis family, as usual, had double encores, giving a good start and happy ending to the concert. Mr. Wsillie Austin's Waltz Song was finely exeucted with the finish and ease of a good professional. The solo of Miss McEvvan was, as is everything by this sweet voiced singer, heartily applauded. Miss Gfroerer, not so used to singing on tlie stage as many, gave evidence of a fine voice and assiduous study. The duet by W. W. Byers and Miss Ensey was one of the most pleasing numbers on the bill, and the long, difficult selection by Miss Tainzer was as excellent as ambitious. The closing solo bv Miss Jeffers was a happy example of "her beautiful singing, displaying all the sweetness aud compass of her superb voice.
A yery important part of the entertainment was the elocution. Mrs. Aydelotte's Bugle song with the beautiful bugle eflects was admirable. Miss Ilosford's selections were fine character sketches. Miss Fischer is a reader of no little powerand carried the atuhcnce in a gallop, as it were on that wonderful horse. Prof. Carliart illustrated the beauty of fine elocution by a tale that was told in a recitation that thrilled and touched the listeners. The concert closed with the audience still calling for more Davis Family.

The pastor supplemented this report with a statement that $290 had been contributed by individual members to various benevolences, which had not passed through the treasurer's hands also that he had collected and disbursed among the church poor $25.
Elder W. H. Wiley made a report of the general condition of the church, and Prof. .T110. Donaldson, of the Sunday school.
There have been 87 additions to the church during the year.
M?. FianK H, Chanfrau will be at the opera house, Monday eveping in his play of "Kit." The New York Herald says: Mr. F. S. Chanfrau, the well known comedian and character actor, last evening began the season at Wallack's theater with his famous play, Kit. the Arkansas Traveler. The house was full and responsive, and the veteran was called to the footlights to acknowledge the welcome of his manv friends. The piece is quite familiar" to theater-goers throughout the countly but it is safe to say that it never before has been presented with more picturesque or effective surroundings, or in a manner more calculated to please a popular audience.
Hauk,
On Tuesday evening the Minnie Ilauk company will give a concert at the Opera house.
The Milwaukee Sentinel makes tne following comparison between the two great American prima donnas "A comparison is natural with Miss Clara Louise Kellogg, the other most noted singer Milwaukee has enjoyed, it must be to the disadvantage of the latter. The quality of Miss Ilauk's voice is far sweeter, purer, and in its capacity fully equal to Miss Kellogg's standard. It is difficult to determine whether one admires most her upper middle or lower register. Her high notes are as clear as crystal and struck with decision
and
utmost trueness.

Caught, a Mink.
Gazette.
Councilman Grace's child went in the cellar of his house, this morning, to get some potatoes. As it was doing so something ran up and into the bed room. At tlie time it was thought to be rat. Mr. Grace was summoned, found it in die bed room, and killed it. It didn't look like a rat, and not knowing what it was, Mr. Giace took it to Mr. Jos. Frisz' store, where, after a critical inspection of the same, it was decided that it was a mink, and a good-sized one at that.

Grant's Gloomiest Day.
AVashinglon Cor. Boston Traveller.
Gen. Grant, in a recent conversation, said: "The darkest day of my Ufe was the day I heard of Lincoln's assassination. I did not know what it meant. Here was the rebellion put.down in the field and starting up again in the gutters. We had fought it as a war, now we had to fight it as assassination. Lincoln was killed on the evening of the 14th of April. I was busy sending out orders to stop recruiting, the purchase of supplies, and to muster out the army. Lincoln had promised to go to the theater, and wanted me to go with him. While I was with the president a note came from Mrs. Grant, saying that she must leave Washington that night. She wanted ro go to Burlington to see her children. Some incident of a trifling nature had made her
that evening. I was
glad to have it so, as I did not waiit to go to the theater. So I made my excuses to Lincoln, and at the proper hour we started for the train. As we were driving along Pennsylvania avenue, a horseman drove past us on a gallop, and back again around our carriage looking into it. Mrs. Grant said: 'There is the man who sat near us at lunch to-day. with some other men, and tried to overhear our conversation. He was so rude that we left the dining-room. Here he is now riding after us.' I thought it was only curiosity, but learned, afterward that the horseman was Booth. It seemed that I was to have been attacked, and Mrs. Grant's sudden resolve to leave changed the plan. A few days after I received an'anonymous letter from a man saying that lie had been detailed to kill me, that he rode on my train as far as Havre de Grace, and as my car was locked he failed to get in. He thanked God that he had failed. I remember that the conductor locked our car, but how true the letter was I cannotsay. I learned of the assassination as I was passing through Philadelphia. I turned around, took a special train, and came to Washington. It was the gloomiest day of my life."
Transfusion of Blood. A most improbable story comes from New York of the rescusitation of almost extinct iiuman life by the transfusion of healthy blood into tlie^yeins of a would-be suicide. It is related that a Mr. Okebury shut himself up in his room, turned on the gas and tried hard to die of asphyxia but was discovered soon after he became uncon sciousf The usual restorative remedies were tried without effect and finally tlie physicians called in a young negro, black as jet, from whose arm about a quart of blood was injected into the veins of the dying Okebury. He atonce revived and regained his senses, appar. ently. But the strangest part of the tale occurred when his wife and child were sent for. He refused to speak to them, and said he did not know them but turning to the colored citizen, whose blood had brought him back to life, called him his "dear brothetr." "This man is my brother," he added, "and 1 do pof know this woman." Ami npw Mrs. Okebury is compelled to believe that her hushand is either crasy or that the transfusion of blood has made another man of him.
Reports from different sections of Indiana say that the present winter Itas been unusually severe on wheat, barley, and clover, the latter being frozen out and standing on the top of the ground.
A. I!. Williams, one of Dorsey's counsel in the Star route trial, has been indicted for receiving stolen goods—a watch stolen from Mrs. Ellis, a year ago—from parties for whom lie acted as attorney. Mr. AVilliamssays the charge is absurd, and is the out-growth of the ill-will of the department of justice because he hps taken an active part in the defense of Dorsey.

To Mr. or Mrs. as the case may be: Do you intend buying a carriage or phaeton this season? If you do, be sure you buy from a good house that has a reputation for making good work. You do not want to take your family out for a pleasure drive in a cheap made shoudy looking vehicle that looks—that looks like—oh, well, you know what I mean.
Secondly, you do not wish to risk the lives of yourself and children in going out in such shoddy, cheap made work. You know there are accidents happening every day all over this country from carriages and plnetons breaking down, the horse running away and some of the family being crippled for life. Do you want to take this risk No, I know you don't. What you do want is one of my home-made, strong, yet light draft, gracefully built phtetons or side-bars. I went east to study styles, and I have gone to great trouble to get the latest and the best shape, and I have sucoeede.l, as all who have seen my new spring pannel back phaitons are willing to admit.
I use the Halsey top leather, the best steel ties, Swede graded steel springs, A No. 1 wheels, eighteen ounce English body cloth, wool dyed, padding all genuine curled hair, Valentine's celebrated varnish, and in fact every article that goes into my work is strictly fi rst-class. I employ nothing but tlie best skilled labor, and every job is warranted. During eight years' experience here 1 have .never had a vehicle fail to give satisfaction. Mine is a home institution and must have home support.
