The only fatality during the day at .Cincinnati yesterday resulted from the ^accidental diBoharge of a militiaman's 'gnn, a brother soldier being killed and one or two others seriously injured. ""It is not surprising that the mayor 'and his adviBers have felt called upon to request the governor to withdraw the militia, believing their presence in 'the city acts as a menace and threatens further trouble. The people have become disgusted and enraged at them |for the blunders that have resulted in the loss of life. hf
While the primary cause of the Cincinnati riot was the trifling with justice by judges, juries and lawyers, there is another cause for the loss of life which needs serious consideration. The militia, as a preserver of the peace, proved itself in this instance not only a complete failure but really aggravated the trouble, and through gross stupidity killed innocent people and allowed the court house to be destroyed. The story of the riot from the beginning is a reflection on the militia, and the movements for its increased province will be checked by the display at Cincinnati. A company of regular troops would have done more to prevent the loss of life and property than all the jnilitia in the city.
Thfl most significant feature of the riot is that now after three days ",of terrible street encounters and tha loss of a half hundred lives the original objget of the mob is not forgotten although since Friday night when the effort was made to hang the murderers wanton destruction of property and an ill advised contest with the military have intervened to detract the attention of the populace. But instead the indignation at the farce played in the courts is still Btrong and the murderers in £he jail are in great danger from the people, whose sense of justice has been so violently abused by trickster lawyers and weak courts. The sentiment of the best people in the city is yet that these murdererft should be lynched. The leading citizens boldly and without any reservation as to the right in such summary proceedings declare through the newspapera their wish that lynch law may preval. The Commercial Gazette, which is far from being an organ of the rabble, yesterday after this fashion: "One more word this morning to all whom it may concern! The quieting down of the city does not mean that the murderers are to escape—not at all. Pass the word that is not what peace means."

Frank Hurd—The Morrison bill will be passed by the house. There will not be more than twenty-five Democratic votes against it.

Ismail Pasha, ex-Khedive of Egypt —The days of the Turk are numbered in moral, material and matial power. The great event of the future is the coming AraD nationality.
Chairman Willis,of the river and bar' bor committee of the house—I want a horizontal reduction of 75 per cent, on the $40,000,000 asked for internal improvements this year.
Sullivan, the slugger—You can take this chump Thompson's bulk away from him and there nothing left. He ain't got no more heart than a calf. He's a big blab—the biggest of all the big blabs I ever had the bad luck to run against.
John Kelly—I don't like the action of the Democratic caucus on the tariff question. The party has been deieated by the power of monopolies for twenty years, but now, when the issue is made up, and the time unquestionably ripe for successful agitation, they flunk and temporize.
Chauncey F. Black on Blaine's book —It would have been a marvel, indeed, if the great partisan leader, suddenly turned historian, had failed to color his narrative of those important events with some of the errors his party has habitually propegated and the prejudice with which it has been saturated for a quarter of a century.
Private Dalzell—Blaine's candidacy is unsubstantial. There, is nothing in it, absolutely nothing. I have asked a hundred Blaine men for either a reason or excuse for his candidacy. One lunatic's reply*may stand for all, as he glared at me and bawled and shrieked out: "You were one of the Hayes crowd who shut of the gas on _Blaine and defeated him in Cincinnati, curse you! We mean to vindicate him— that's all."
Representative Long, of Massachusetts—I hear it said that the whisky interest has paid $1,000,000,000 into the public treasury that it has supported our armies that it has paid our debts that it has maintained our government but, sir, it has not paid one cent. Whisky has never paid a dollar. The people it is who out of the earnings of their toil have paid millions for it and its curses. If a thousand million dollars has gone into the public treasury whisky has been only the rotten bridge over which, it has passed.
Chairman Cooper, of the Pennsylvania Republican committee—The people are fond of having candidates who, in their lifework and records, typify the issues which they are called upon to represent, and it is not only popular but right that this should be so. Washington represented the liberty of the law Jefferson, Republican simplicity: Madison, a nation's honor Jackson, the love of the heroic Lincoln,the nationality ot freedom Grant, the just results of war Garfield, the strength of harmonious action, and Blaine can best typify in his own brilliant talents and record the doctrine of protection. He is the Henry Clay of the present day.
MR. MOCK'S HEART AND HAND.
He Offered Them Both to Some Nice Girls In Oastle Garden.
William Mock, a fine-looking man, who represented himself as a widower without children, thirty-six years old, and a well-to-do florist at Mount Yer•non, says the New York Sun, applied to Secretary Jackson at Castle Garden yesterday for permission to select a wife from ameng the immigrants. The conditions were that she must be a German girl, not less than twenty-one nor more than twenty-six years old, and that she must be of a kind dispo sition. Mr. Mock did not care whether she had any property, as he had enough.
After satisfying himself that Mr. Mock was in earnest, and was what he represented himself to be, Mr. Jackson turned him over to Detective Groden, who took him on a tour of inspection through the labor bureau.
Here he saw two girls, with either of whom he was willing to negotiate. Matron Esslinger advised the first one to whom Mr. Mock popped the question not to marry him until she had had a little acquaintance wilh him, and had learned whether be was worthy, genial, and able to give a wife a good home.
So Mr. Mock cast sheep's eyes at the other girl. She was only nineteen years old, but, Mr. Mock concluded this would not be a bar to his happiness. When he learned, however, that she had recently been in the hospital he decided not to conclude arrangements just then, and departed, leaving the girl
Badly
depressed.
When Mr. Esslinger was* asked why she put in her discouraging oar. "Now," said she, "is it a nice thing for a man to marry a girl as soon as he sees her?"
Mr* Mock declared that he was still hopeful ot selecting a wife from among the immigrants. He said he would return in a few days to make another ofier of his heart and hand.
First Southern Inebriate Asylum. Louisville Commercial.
We wish to to predict for ex-Gov. Blackburn's private hospital for the treatment of lunatics and inebriates the fullest success. There is no such institution in Kentucky or any of the old slave states, and one is needed. Hundreds of patients are annually sent from those states to remote places in the north and east, where they are far from their friends and subjected to a climate to which they are unaccustomed. The building selected—the handsome edifice originally built by that city for an eruptive hospital, but never used, is admirably adapted for the purpose—is situated in a high and healthy place and amid quiet and pleasant surroundings. It is Dr. Blackburn's purpose to have aboard of visitors, composed of our best citizens and embracing the mayor and other official representatives of the city.

A similar trial was made with eight school boy®,' when it was found that left-legged boys diverged to the right and right-legged boys to the left. The step of a right-handed person is longer from left to right than from right to left, and vice vena. The writer believes that nine oat of ten. strongly right-handed persons are leftleggea. Every active effort of the right hand is almost necessarily accompanied by. an effort with the left leg, and a right-handed man is almost compelled to use his left leg more than the other.

Bomantlc Story of True Affection, Soon to be Crowned by Happy Hurlag*. Washington Special.
Quite a stir has been created by'the departure from this city yesterday under romantic circumstances of a popular and well-known young lady of Swiss parentage, whose black eyes, ruddy cheeks and raven tresses attracted much admiration and whose winning ways and cheerful disposition have won her many friends during the two years of which she has been a resident of Washington. The little lady has been employed as a governess in a fashionable family here, but has been recognized for her unusual intellect and fine manners and training, and more than one heart received a pang when she unexpectedly announced a few days ago that she must depart for South America at once to fulfill her long-pending engagement with her lover, who is now an attache of the British Legation at Montevideo, Uruguay, and was h^r tutor in Switzerland when she was a girl. The lady explained that poverty and other obstacles had prevented their marriage in Switzerland yeara ago, and a separation had. being determined upon until circumstances would permit of her lover claiming her and welcoming her to his home. During the years ot separation she had been industrious and economical, and her lover has secured a good position and notified her that all would be ready for a marriage feast as soon as she can reach Montevideo. As.saonu this information reach ed'her ahis to make preparations for the long journey of 6,000 miles by sea, and to to-day she embarked from New York and started on her extended and romantic journey, leaving a host of friends and admirers behind, and having an expectant and long-waiting^ lover to welcome her to her destination.

BARIUM'S WHITE ELIBTHANT. i.. ArrtVtic Safely at H«v Yorfc ssd Fallowed by Crowds to Madison gqnare
Garden. ."jr". ~"-U' Nsw York, March 31.—The steamship Lydian Monarch, of the Monarch Line, arrived in port to-day, having on board the sacred or white elephant intended for Barnum's show. The elephant was accompanied by two priests and musicians, as also a sacred white monkey and a choice assortment of idols. The elephant is of a rather dark color^nd has a large blaze of light pink on his face ana ears, and is Bomewhat mottled on other parts of his body. His tail is long, eyes pinkish, and his toes are perfectly whi£e. The Lydian Monarch was met at quarantine by the steamboat Henry Moore, on board of which was a distinguished party, among whom was P. T. Barnum, Colonel D. B. Sickles, exconsul of Siam and Professor Haldee, all of whom declared the elephant one of the truest specimens of the
elephant ever t^itnessed. When the steamer arrived at her dock the elephant was unshipped and afterward landed at the iootof Twenty-third street, from whence he was walked to the Madison Square -Garden, followed by an immense crowd of spectators.
Virtue of the Divining Rod. Captain Godfrey, a California engineer, noted for his skill in locatibg ore beds and artesian wells, says there is no doubt about the virtue of a divining rod, neither is there any black art about it. A series of careful experiments was made by a committee from the French academy, which showed conclusively that the subterranean conductors ot electricity are ore veins and water courses. It was also demonstrated that some persons are more sensitive to electrical influences that they experience a shock when crossing one of these. Others do not feeL it, yet are sufficiently good conductors to be able to operate a divining rod, which by its length and flexibility renders visible the involuntary and insensible movements of the moscles produced by the electrical or magnetic currents.
