Now, how many regiments will be necessary to keep them from killing each other at the National Convention? During 1879 nearly a quarter of a million head of live stock were exported from the United States, aggregating in value over 11,01)0,UU). This la not a bad showing for a branch of

trade which five year ago could scarcely o said to have an existence. A dkcskakd fled into the woods, near. Nashville, Tenn., while wild with delirium tremens dug a grave, and was found lying in it dead. His wife was made frantic by the sight, and she loudly called upon Heaven to let her die too It happened that on her wayhome lightning struck and killed her. Joseph Emm kit's spree In Pittsburg will cost him 15,1100. Nearly all of the seats were sold for a week of his performances at the Opera lion, and the house had to be closed, the money being refunded. Persuasive efforts did not avail, and he was sent to a hospital, where he was put into condition to act during the ensuing week. AN old Episcopalian prayer-book was sold recently at auction in New York. It was published by William Bradford in 1710. It Is probable that this copy Is the only one of this edition now lu existence. It was !ought for 1X0. At the time It was printed it is probable that what is now the great State of New York did not con tain over 20,000 white inhabitants, und the typographic art was lu Its Infancy.

A Savannah paper rejoices in the rapid increase of the veetable trade of Southern Georgia and Florida. A few years ago, It sayi a few hundred crates were considered a large shipment, and now the exports are counted by the hundred carloads and shiploads. One day last week ten caroads of vegetables, nearly all cucumbers, arrived over the Savannah, Florida and Western Railway, and were shipped to New York. Tesnyson, who looks "old and exhausted," Is sal J recently to have told a story of a drunken man whom he met reeltng along the road. The fellow came up to him aud said: "Mr. Tennyson, If you will shake bands with me I swear by God Almighty I wont touch liquor again." The poet shook hands as requested, but afterward remarked dryly, "I am afraid I didn't do any good." Miss Lillie Wilkwsok, of Wilkinson's "Uncle Tom's Cabin" Company, cast asidu an old corset at a hotel In Holly, Mich., on the 15th ult.,aad had been away from that town a week before she recalled the fact that 250 In greenbacks was stitched Into that article of apparel. When she remembered this, a member oi the Company was dispatched post haste to Holly, and was lucky enough, after digging over a lot of rubbish In the hotel yard, to And the corset and cash all right . The late wife of President Diaz, of Mexico,

years Mrs. Diaz has been an

Claude, the famous head of the detective

police of Paris, is dead. The arrest or tnarbeatier, cashier of the Northern Railway, who

fled from Paris to New York, made nis nam familiar In this country. He was famous in Paris for his arrest of Troppman, Avniar.Olrand de Oatebourse, and otber noted crimi nals. In 1S73, after thirty years' service, he retired on a well-earned pension. He thought of writing his memoirs. He cou!d tell tale of nigh and low degree. For instance, one day a 11 BAnt for him: Jewels, silver, silver plate

disappeared rapidly from the house. Watch was kept for six months; the thief could not be detected. No wonder. The thief was the Duchess, who stole to pay her milliner's and mantaumaker's bill. The Eureka (Nev.) Leader ot April 17 re lates another miner's experience, showing that eartbuuake shocks are not felt very far

below tne surface of the ground. This miner fcAid that on the occasion of the last hake at

Sectet Canon, be was at work In a mine on rrospect Mountain, and although the tremor was plainly felt by his partuers on the surface, lie, at a depth of eighty feet, noticed nothing unusual. He also said that through an experience of fifteen years under ground, he had observed one very peculiar fact that between the hours of 12 and 2 at night, if there was a loose stone or bit of earth in the mine it was sure to fall. Said he: "About this time It

seems that everything begins to stir, and im

mediately after 12, although the mine has been as still as the tomb before, you will hear little particles of rock and earth come tumbling down, and If there is a caving piece of ground in the mine it is sure to give way." Freeman, the AdventUt, who killed his child at Pocasset, Masu, about a year ago, was

formally recommitted to the Danvers (Mass.) Insane Asylum on Wednesday. During his

confinement there he has gained ten pounds, and is in excellent physical health. He is generally cbeerful and hopeful, but is disinclined to talk on matters personal to himself. He maintains that he is not insane. He maaes lent it to her. She testified tbat, by the terms of a mutual agreement, she was to pay for the ewelry by kissing Mr. Eddy every morning for a hundred days. He called and got his kiss, on his way to work, every day for about a month. Then he grew bold, and wauted to

take a hug as well as a kiss. There was no provision in the bargain for hugging, and she

repulsed him, even restricting his kisses to a mere touch of his Hps to her cheek. He thought he ws V'tit che , and hence his effort to recover. , Düring a recent perforrr ice in the Teatro del Circo, at Madrid, a r-adman forced his way into the house, a-med with a hatchet, and contrived to climb from the auditorium upon the stage, r'lere, ' brandishing his weapon furiously, he announced himself to the terrified audience as "The Avenger of Mankind." All attempts to remove him having proved in vain, and his fury momentarily Increasing, a detachment oi soldiers received the orier to load with ball and Are upon him. A minute later the wretched man lay a corpse upon the stage, three bullets having passed through his head; and, this highly sensational dramatic episode having been thus brought to a close, the audience returned to their places, from which they had fled In Urror when the madman made his first and lsst appearance upon the stage, and the evening's performances were resumed at the point at which they had been interrupted by Mnnfr Itirl'ti AvAtivpr "

The rollf the Counties was called on the adoption of the resolution, with but little debate, resulting ayes, 38: noes, 212. A point ot order waa made that the resolution required a two third vote, as It suspended the Parliamentary rules that a motion to adjourn was always In order. The chair overruled this, on the ground that the Convention was only temporarily organized and had not adopted the rules of order. At 3:45, the Committee on credentials appeared and submitted three reports, which were read. The fliBt report recites that there are du pll cate credentials from Cook County, owing to two Conventions having met ami sent delegate. They fiud that Um Utate Central Committee did not call upon the Republicans of Cook County tosend delegates, butcalled upon the Republicans of the tlrt seven Henatorial districts, comprising that County, to send delegates. Each of these Senatorial districts is independent of and distinct from any otber Republican organization in Cook County for all purposes ol representation In this Convention. Having the action of tbe ward primaries before them, it was easier to determine on what is substantial Justice toward interests lnvolvtd neither of the parties calling themselves, the Cook County Convention was regular or legitimate; nor is their action valid. Each of the Senatorial Districts is entitled to the same representation here. The will of the honest voter at tbe primaries should be represented here, and this would be donedls cgardlng both of the County Conventions and according seats In this Convention todelegntes from the Henatorial Districts. The delegates admitted hy the first report are the Orant delegates from the First, Third and Fourth Senatorial Districts, being thirty-six in all, and tbe remaining fifty-six divided between Blaine and Wash bu me. The first report Is signed by J. H. Moore. The seconi report is signed by the minority, and refers to tha pledge exacted from the Karwell Hall delegates, and says their managers submitted a so-called pledge, which contained a reservation which Is recited together with Mr. Hawes explanation. Tne report says this Is a substantial failure to comply with the terms of the resolution, under which the Com mlttee nf Credentials were instructed to consider the claims of the contestants, who frankly pledge themselves to accept and abide by the decision of the Convention. Therefore tho Karwell Hall delegation has no right to be

At 11 :15 Mr. Logan suggested that each side agree upon the amount of time they wanted for debate that time, the debate be limited to that time, and that vote then be taken. This compromise waa not agreed to, and a motion to adjourn till morning voted down. At 12 o'olock order waa finally restored and the roll called.
