BUFFALO, N. Y., December 8. Sullivan
and Jackson, Providence, permitting and
the negro failing to flunk, are going to fight
in Buffalo.
Sporting men of every grade and condi
tion are wild over the matter. Iiast Tues
day a laree number of the most wealthy
sporting men in this city, envious of the
condition of the Buffalo Athletic Club, or
ganized the Erie County Athletic Clnb, on
the same basis, but with a larger member
ship and more wealth as backing. At
their first meeting, affter electing James C.
Fullerton, Esq., President, John G. Floss,
Treasurer, and a number of others to offices of
minor importance, the duh decided to inaug
urate its official life by an
APPEAL TO THE MIGHTIEST,
in the fistic arena. Accordingly ex-Assemblyman
O'Brien was authorized to confer with
John L. Sullivan, and "Parson" Davies, Peter
Jackson's manager, asking those worthies to
come to Buffalo on or before the last day of
next February tor the pitiful sum or (30,000.
There are about 300 members, and by assess
ing them $100 apiece this seemingly large sum
could be raised without any trouble. Last
evening the clnb held its second meeting at
President Fullerton's law office. Articles of
incorporation were drawn up and signed, and
Mr. O'Brien made his longed-for report.
SULLITAN QUITE "WILLING.
He said that he had received a reply from
Bullivan, a telegraphic dispatch reading as fol
lows: - "
"Will accept If Jackson does."
That was all. "Parson" Daries was in Europe
and no reply had been received from him, but
be had every reason to believe that It would be
in the affirmative. Te clnb will at once get
their clnb rooms in shape for occupancy. They
are located at the comer of Michigan and
Genesee streets, in a building belonging to
Treasurer Floss,f ormerly known as the People's
Theater. They hope to open the rooms with

F0GAETI WANTS A FIGHT.
Be Offers to Meet Alike Donovan or Any
' Middle Weight.
KkwTobc, December 8. Jack Fogarty, the
.very clever and game miadle weight who gave
Jack Dempsey such a terrific battle a few years
ago when he had but little experience and
skill, is in town looking for a battle with some
food man. In conversation with a reporter
'ogarty said:
"1 have come over to New York to try and
arrange a fight with some high flyer in my
class.- I would mnch prefer that man to be
Mike Donovan, who has attracted so mnch at
tention by claiming to have bested Dempsey
in six rounds in a public exhibition in Brook
lyn. I feel fully confident that Donovan would
have no soft snap with me in the same number
of rounds, or to a finish. There is no reason
why he shonld refuse to meet me. especially as
he thinks himself abetter man than Dempsey
or myself. If I cannot fix a go with the Pro
fessor I shall be willing to meet all comers for
a stake, puree or gate money. Most anything
will be agreeable to me. I mean business, and
intend calling some of the great and fancy
boxers down."

JUST THREE SOUNDS.
All It Took to Show Jim HcCormlck,
Pittsburg, That Jim Lyddy la the
Better Man A Fierce Fight
While It Lasted.
ISPECLSl TKLZOlLaK TO thz DISPATCH. 1
of
New York, December 8. Early this morn
ing Jim Lyddy, the well-known lightweight
pueilist of Elizabeth, knocked out Jim Mccor
mick, a middleweight of Pittsburg, in a des
perate fieht with knuckles, near Brooklyn. For
the past six months the friends ot Mccormick
have been trying to force Lyddy to fight.
After a ereat deal of provocation Lyddy
consented to settle the grudge at a road house
not tar from the city limits of Brooklyn. About
150 sports were In waiting when the principals
arrived. The manager, Jerry Brennan. had&
purse of $200 for the men, and about $75 more
was added to that amount before the im
promptu ring that had been pitched in a sum
mer pavilion adjacent to the hotel.
McCormick was the first to enter the ring,
followed hv his seconds. The Pittsbnre man
looked big enough to weigh 175 pounds, but
his weight was 158. He Is 24 years 'of
ace. and stands 5 feet 8 inches. He
looked stronc but untrained. Billy 11c-
Gnire and Billy Kooney were his seconds.
Lvddv was over the roDes directly after bis
adversary. He is 5 feet 10 inches high, is 24
years of age, and weighs 131 pounds. His ap
pearance denoted careful training. His sec
onds were D. McVeie-h and Hilly McCrearv. A
referee was quickly selected, in the person of
Wash Bemman. a local middle-weight puguist,
and Robert Molitor held the watch.
Jl'COBMICK LEADS OFF.
When time was called, McCormick was the
first to lead, landing his left on the body, with
out a return. Lyddy forced the fighting and
got home right and left on his adversary's jaw
and nose. McCormick returned the compli
ment with a good jab on the stomach, and fol
lowed it up with right and left-hand body blows
that Lyddy tried to avoid by clinching, twice
missing his adversary's face in breaking away.
McCormick landed right and left on the body
just as time was called.
Advancing for the second round, McCormick
showed the effects of the punch be had re
ceived on the nose, and first blood was claimed
and allowed for Lyddy. McCormick rushed
his man, and a clinch ensued in which be
landed a bard one on Lyddy's jaw, in breaking
away. A fonl was claimed, -but the
men were ordered to fight on. Sev
eral sharp rallies then took place, and
Lyddy had to keep moving to avoid McCormick's
wicked rushes and lunges. Twice he ducked
beneath hard, swinging right-handers that
would have put him out had they reached the
mark. Onoe both men came together with
their heads, the Pittsburg man receiving an
ugly gash that bled copiously.
CAUGHT OFF HIS GUAED.
Lyddy caught his man off guard near the
close of the round, on the eye, and that im
portant organ began to bulge and blacken, and
act as a marker. Whenever he tried to rush
Lyddy, the latter stuck to bim so closely that
his blows had no effect. The smaller man
threw him heavily just as time ended
the round. Altbongh Lyddy appeared the
pluckiest and coolest of the two, very few were
willing to risk anv money on bis chances, and
it was the general impression that the Penn
syivaman wouia win in me ena.
Everybody was intensely Interested when the
Erincipals opened the third, and that proved to
e the final round. McCormick got home two-left-handed
jabs about the neck and head, and
swung bis right but Lyddy went under it
very pretty, and in return, clinched and
again threw his man. As he was falling,
Lyddy caught him with an upper cut under the
jaw, and he was slow in getting np, but when
he did he rushed at his opponent like an infuri
ated bull, and the attempt proved his doom, as,
with head lowered, he ran right on to Lyddy's
right-hand swing. The blow could be beard all
over the place, and McCormick fell all in a
heap. He was unconscious for 15 seconds.
The winner received the entire purse, and his
friends will back him against any of the 130
pound fighters, or the winner of the Cashing
Gibbons fight. "
WANTS A GREAT H0ESE.
W. L. Scott on the Lookout for British
Stock.
We understand Hon. W. L. Scott is casting
about for another imported stallion. As is
well known, Mr. Bcott has in Rayon d'Ora
horse still quite young, but his stud Is also filling
up with daughters of that horse, and he Is de
sirous of securing one with which they will
cross. It Is said be was disappointed in not
getting Galore, and he is very much disposed
toward a son of Galopin. seeing the success of
that sire through St. Simon, Galliard. Dono
van, etc. That he has priced some of them
would appear from the fact that he complains
"at the high price they ask" for a good horse.
As upon the retirement of Donovan the Dnke
of Portland will have two Galopin stallions ho
might be willing to sell either Donovan or St.
Simon, while his other horse, Ayrshire, although
a son of Hampton, is from a Galopin mare.
Probably the price of any of them would be
so high as to cause Mr. Scott to decline. If
there was any choice at this distance from the
horses we shonld prefer St. Simon. He is from
.St. Angela, by King Tom, and we have an idea
he was a better horse than 'Donovan. This we
are aware is flying in the face of popular feel
ing, as Donovan is by many regarded as a won
der. That he is an exceptionally good horse is
of course true, but, as we follow English rac
ing, we think he has been what is called a
lucky horse. The 3-year-olds of last season
were" a very bad lot. We doubt if Donovan
could have won the Derby and Leger in Or
monde's. Melton's, Bend Ors or Petrarch's
years. To win those races does not always
prove a horse a good one. Kingcraft and Sir
Bevys won the Derby, Ossian won the St. Leger,
but they were not great horses. The running
of the English 3-year-olds this year all goes to
show them bad. St. Simon, on the other hand,
met some good horses, he was never beaten, he
could coyer all distances, and he is a success at
the stud already. Spirit of the Timet.
ALL WASTED WILMOT.
How the Washington Fielder Came to Sign
With tbe Chicago Club.
rSPICtAI. -TJ-XtCKAIC TO TBXSISrATCB.I
Washu-gton, December 8. The baseball
portions of Washington are much cut np over
the announcement that neither Wilmot nor
Hoy will be members of the Senatorial team
next season. The fact that Wilmot is to play
with the Chicago League Club in 1890
is substantiated by the official pro
mulgation of his contract from League
headquarters. The 'circumstances which led
to tbe transfer of Wilmot to the Spalding con
tingent are these: Wilmot's first season here
was not a brilliant success, because he was un
well for a long time and did not do himself or
his clnb justice on tbe field. Last year, how
ever, he returned to the Capital City in ex
cellent condition and soon demonstrated that
he was one of the star outfielders of the
League. When be appeared bis work in the
flelt, at bat and on the base lines was one of
the. principal features of tbe tail enders' game.
When the season closed several of the lead
ing clubs expressed a desire for his services,
and his head may have become slightly in
flated by tbe scramble for him. By some means
Spalding beard that Wilmot, bad expressed a
willingness to play with tbe Chicago club, so
the necessary permission was obtained and he
at once opened negotiations with him and
terms were agreed upon, providing they were
acceptable to Mr. Hewitt.
Umpire Lynch has written to President
Young stating that he is prepared to sign a
League contract for next season.
AN INTERESTING QUESTION.
Lending Authorities Support an Answer
Given In This Paper.
Invariably there is considerable interest in
answers to questions asked through tbe columns
of this paper, but one answer recently given hat
more than ordinary interest attached to it.
ft Some time ago a subscriber, signing himself
H. u., asked the following question:
We have been reading your valuable paper for &
number of years, and have noticed the correct
ness of many decisions yon have made. We have
no authorized pool rooms In the city, but we haTe
a man here who makes a book on the street. He
takes his entries from the daily newspapers. You
are aware these dally papers often get a name
spelled wrong. We played a horse the paper bav
lngprinted Easter, but It should have been Faster.
This horse won the race, paying good odds. Mow
this bookmaker refuses to pay tbe bets because be
says Easter didn't start. We claim we won our
moner, as we played tbe horse that won the race,
as we are not accountable for the errors of the
dally papers. Now we wish you to decide this for
us In tbe nextlssne of your paper, and greatly
oblige several parties Interested.
The answer given In this paper was to the ef
fect that all that could be claimed was H. C.'s
own money back. This answer was not accepted
as correct, and the question.' was submitted to an
Eastern sporting paper, who submitted It to
Cridge fc Co., the famous bookmakers. It was
also submitted to other leading authorities, and
In every instance tbe decision originally given in
this paper has been sustained. The question
is an interesting one, as there is no written
rule on the matter.
Declared It OST.
The proposed battle between J. Jennings and
W. Ryan bat been declared off. The former is
unable to get into condition and has forfeited.
Ryan is now anxious to meet any local heavy
weight.

Dethroned Him.
EMIN PACHA'S DANGEROUS CONDITION.
Dr. Parke Still Has Borne Hope That He WillXrentually
Et cover.
Details concerning the Brazilian revolu
tion confirm the statement that the move
ment originated with the military. The
Imperialists are mnch pleased iy Dom
Pedro's action in refusing to accept the
money offered him by the new republic
The Emperor stated that he merely yielded
to the force of circumstances.
IiiSBOX, December 8. The steamer At
rato has arrived with advices from Bio
Janeiro to November 22. The dispatches
she brings confirna the statement that the
revolution in Brazil was precipitated by
the attempt of the Government to remove
disaffected troops stationed at Bio Janeiro
to the provinces. The revolt was confined
to the military and students. The populace
were passive.
The only act of bloodshed was the attack
upon Minister of JIariue Ladrio, who was
shot inihree places. He is recovering from
the effects of his wounds. In Bahia and Per
uambneo business proceeds as if nothing
had happened. The Bank of Brazil-addressed
p letter to the Chief of Police, advis
ing him that a guard lor the bank was no
longer requisite.
THE OFFICIAL NOTICE.
General De Fonseca, the head of the pro
visional Government, in tbe message by him
to Dom Pedro on November 16, said: "The
democratic sentiments of the nation com
bined with resentment at the systematio rev
pressive measures of the Government
against the army and navy, and the spolia
tion of their rights, have brought about the
revolution. In the face of this situation,
the presence of the Imperial family in the
country is impossible. Yielding, therefore,
to the exigencies of the national voice,' the
provisional Government is compelled to re
quest yon to leave Brazilian territory with
your family within 24 hours.
"The Government will provide at its own
expense the proper means for transport, and
will afford protection for the Imperial family
during their embarkation. The Govern
ment will also continue the Imperial dowry
fixed bylaw until the constituted assembly
decides thereon. The country expects that
you will know how to imitate the example
set by the first Emperor of Brazil on April
7, 183L"
NOTHTNQ ELSE TO DO.
Dom Pedro's answer, which was sent on
the same day, was as follows: "Yielding to
the imperiousness of circumstances, I have
resolved to start with my family to-morrow
for Europe, leaving this country so dear to
us all, and which I have endeavored to
give constant proofs of deep love during the
nearly half a century in which I have dis
charged the office of Chief of State. While
thus leaving with my whole family, I shall
ever retaih for Brazil the most heartfelt af
fection and ardent good wishes for her pros
perity." The Comtesse d' Eu issued the following
declaration: "Wjth a broken heart I part
from my friends, from the whole people of
Brazil and from my country, which I have
so loved and still do love, toward whose
happiness I have done my best to contribute,
and for which I shall ever entertain the most
ardent good will."
The passage in the Comte d'JSu's letter to
the provisional Government in which he
offered to serve, no matter what form of
government, produced a painful impression
among the Monarchists in Bio Janeiro.
Others defend his course on the ground that
a military man in active service could not
do otherwise.
OTHEB PERSONS EtCFELLED.
The order of expulsion extends to Admi
ral Prince Augustus of Goburg, tbe com
mander of a Brazilian iron clad, which is
expected to reach European waters shortly
via the Suez Canal. The action ot Dom
Pedro in sending a dispatch to his major
domo refusing the money offered him by
the provisional Government and accepting
only that which the laws allow has gratified
the Imperialists.
On quitting the Alagoas, Dom Pedro
thanked the Captain for his unremitting at
tention and kindness throughout the voyage
and presented him with the portraits and
autographs of himself and lamily. The
Alagoas hauled down the old Brazilian flag
on the Emperor's departure. She flies no
colors now.

James Lane Struck With a Beer Bottle In a
6penk-Easy Dr. Golden Says That J
Death May Reanlt.
Between 12 and 1 o'clock yesterday morn
ing a fight occurred on Soho street, between
Fifth and Center avennes, that may result
fatally to James Lane, one oi the partici
pants. Lane, with about a half dozen com
panions, was in a speak-easy near his home
on Soho street, when Hugh Doyle, with
several other men, came along and desired
to gain entrance. '
The proprietress refused them admittance,
and Doyle kicked the door open. Lane and
several others ran out when this happened,
and when they found out what occurred
Lane remonstrated with Doyle, saying:
"That's not right, Doyle, a man wouldn't
kick in tbe door of a woman's honse'that
way."
Doyle replied that if Lane did not shut
up he would kick him in also, to which
Lane answered that he dare not try. Doyle
had a bottle of beer in each of his overcoat'
pockets, and as Lane finished speaking he
pulled one of the bottles ont and struck him
over the head. Lane fell to the ground
with a groan and soon became unconscious,
a condition from which he has no( re
covered. As soon as it was learned that Lane was
hurt, Doyle and his friends went home anJ
Lane's friends carried bim to his home, a
few doors above. Dr. Golden was called,
but could do but little for the injured man.
He says the skull is not fractured and the
akin is not broken, but he thinks there is
congestion of the brain, and death may re
sult. Inspector McAleese and Detective Fitz
gerald arrested Doyle jnsUs he was about
to make his escape, at his home last night.
They also arrested Albert Neville, a young
man who was iu the crowd, but- afterward

THE PITTSBURG- TISPATDCCH.
LODGE OP SQfiEaW.
First Event of That Kind Held by the
Pittsburg Elks Tender Tributea to the
Dead Members.
Last evening Pittsburg Lodge, No. 11, of
the Benevolent and Protective Order of
Elks, held its, first "Lodge of Sorrow," ia
the hall at No. 67 Fourth avenue. It was
an open session in commemoration of the
dead members of tbe lodge. There were a
number ot visitors, among whom were sev
eral female relatives and friends of the de
parted Elks. Around the charter on the
wall and the portrait of the late William
Chalet, and over the great set of elk antlers
on the desk or the presiding officer, heavy
JnnriM nf M not cloth hung, and aver the
black and in festoons from the ceiljng there
were bountiful garlands oi mignt green
smilax. Just in Iront of tbe exalted ruler
depended from tbe ceiling a black bordered
shield, on which were the names of the dead,
nine in number.
The services were touching and suggest
ive, from the ritual of the order appropriate
for such an occasion. Sacred music was
sung by a quartet The Chaplain, Stephen
Hornett, read a brief prayer.
The eulogy of "William 7. Clark was
pronounced by John N. Hazlett, a school
mate and for many years associated with the
deceased on the Pittsburg Leader. Mr.
Hazlett's address was the only one of the
evening which had a biographical character.
He spoke of their early days at the old
Birmingham School, now the Bedford
School, on the, Southside. One day, about 15
years ago, there came to the newspaper office
a humorous articlesigned only "'W'." It was
printed and others followed. "Uncle"
Bobert Nevin saw genius in the work and
advertised for the writer to call or send his
address. When the writer did call Mr.
Hazlett discovered bis friend of school days.
.From that time until his death Mr. Clark
was connected with the Leader. His letters
signed "Gilhoolv" were widely admired,
and his "Frisbie""' contributions, describing
his rambles through the Centennial, gave
him a fame in many States. They were
recognized for their fidelity, although Mr.
Hazlett said that he knew well that Mr.
Clark had not been near Philadelphia.
Bartley Campbell, when in the height of
fame and worldlv success, had urged Mr.
Clark to go with him toNewYorkand under
Campbell's patronage take np the literary
work there. Mr. Hazlett said he believed
that bad Mr. Clark eone, he would have
made a national reputation as a humorist
and would have held a place beside Bill
Nye. His domestic natnre led him not to
go, and in his latest years he seemed to feel
that he had made a mistake. He was the
first exalted ruler of the Pittsburg' Lodge,
and was loved by all its members.
Exalted Buler W. W. McClelland pro
nounced a brief memorial on Henry Vicr
heller, who had also been an exalted ruler
of the Pittsburg Lodge.
In memory of P. W. P. O'Brien a beauti
ful but short eulogy was pronounced by Mr.
W. H. Wallace.
John P. McCord then spoke on behalf of
William Chalet, who died nearly two years
ago, being at tbe time of his death the man
ager of -the Opera House. Mr. McCord's
tribute was a feeling one, his praise was
high and his memories fond. He would
write, he said, above, before, under and be
hind the name of William Chalet, the Latin
word "vir." a man. Mr. Chalet had like
wise been, at one time, the chief-officer of
the local lodge.
The Exalted Buler read a brief enlogy of
James w. Davis. Qumcy A. Kobison was
to have spoken of William Bissor, but was
kept away by illness. His duty was well
performed by C. S. Freeman, who spoke a
few tender and appropriate words.
The memory of James Kelly was pre
sented in fitting words by William G. Lee,
who bad evidently known and highly ad
mired tbe deceased. Mr. Kelly had been
born poor. He was a child of tbe Point
Br his own efforts he had raised himself to a
position of comfort, but was carried away in
the earlier flower of his manhood. While
Mr. Lee spoke a lady in the audience, who
wore black, sobbed bitterly.
C. V. Lewis, who was to haTe spoken fo?
Charles S. Brown, did not appear, and Dr.
Frank McDonald was called out to say
something of his dead friend. .
' John Johnson had also failed to appear
to speak, of George Learscb, but that tribute
was well paid by George Elphinstone, the
attorney, who was called upon to deliver
the general eulogy on the dead. His ad
dress, though brief, was eloquent and
moving, abounding in beautiful imagery,
and lull of hope and comfort He was
listened to, as he uttered his short words of
pathos, with breathless attention.
The lodge was dismissed after the singing
of the long meter doxology, with a benedic
tion by Chaplain Hornett

HATCHED AT LAST.
Articles Signed for a Race Between
Mc-
Clellnnd and Miller.
E. C. McClelland, of this city, and Alexander
Miller, of Newburg, N. Y., have finally been
matched to run a 10-mile race at Philadelphia
on Christmas Eve for $300 s side and all the
receipts. Yesterday afternoon McClelland re
ceived a telegram from his backer, who is now
in New York, stating that articles of agree
ment had been signed for the race.
The race is to take place In a rink, and Mc
Clelland Is to receive 818 for expenses. Be will
leave for the Quaker City this week and tram
in Philadelphia. It is not definitely settled yet
who his trainer will be, but it is likely that
Chris Rosellp will continue to look after him.
The stake Is not a big one. but McClelland's
backer Is prepared to bet 81,000 or 82,000 on the
outside. The McClelland party has made
strong efforts to have the race for a big stake,
but have filled to succeed. However, the race
is sure to be of ereat interest, as Miller is
known to be a good 10-mile- pedestrian, ana
McClelland claims that a 10-mile race is his
favorite distance.

Fully 40,000 people yesterday viewed the
remains of Jefferson Davis, lying in state
in the City Hall at New Orleans. At nearly
all of the churches allusions were made to
his death. The Secretary of "War will take
no official action upon tbe subject.
NEW OBlKAlf 8,4, December 8. Many
churches held memorial services in honor
of Jefferson Davis to-day, principally the
Protestant Episcopal, Catholic, Methodist
and Presbyterian. Bishop Keener, of the
Methodist Churchy related anecdotes of the
deceased, especially as a visitor to the an
nual seashore campmeeting. Bishop Gal
leher, of the Protestant Episcopal Church,
who will be in charge of the funeral, did
npt preach any sermon. Besides those al
ready mentioned as assistants, he will be
specially aided by Dr. M&rkham, Presbyte
rian; Father Hubert, Catholic, and Drs.
Bakewell and Martin, Protestant Episco
pal. FITirEUAIi AEBA1TGEMENT.
They were all Confederate chaplains. Dr.
Bakewell was sergeant of a company, and
Bishop Galleher himself carried a musket.
It is "the Bishop's intention to have the
services take place on the broad portico of
the City Hall. Lafayette Square stretches
out in front, and many people could then
witness the rites.
A surpliced choir will sing the anthem
"Though I Walk Throneh the Valley f the
Shadow of Death," by Sir Arthur Sullivan.
At the tomb the same choir will chant
"Bock of Ages." The body will be taken
to the cemetery, a distance of about three
miles on a caisson and the vast procession
will walk all the way.
The parade will be of immense propor
tions. Even the benevolent societies are
commencing to announce that they will turn
out. The somber drapery of mourning is
spreading over the city. To-day the ship
ping dipped its flags, the British steam
ships especially pulling their flags at half
mast All day long there was a ceaseless
stream of people viewing the remainsof
Jefferson Davis. " '
PLENTY OP FLOWEES.
Floral offerings have been pouring in, and
tbe coffin now looks as if placed at the base
of a bank of flowers. The Army of Ten
nessee leads with a design ten feet high, one
of the handsomest floral offerings ever made
here. When the doors opened at 10 o'clock
fully 3,000 people were waiting to enter.
The crowd was so great that the people were
allowed to pass the bier in double instead of
single colnmh, and over 3,300 people passed
every hour. The total to-day was fully 40,
000." The body will remain exposed until
the last minute. The full programme of the
parade will not be decided upon by General
John Glynn, the Grand Marshal, nntil'to
morrow night.
The selection of pallbearers will be left to
Mrs. Davis. Mr. J. TJ. Payne, a promi
nent cotton factor and a life-long friend of
Mr. Davis, will be one of the Grand Army
Confederate vetrans, and Governors of other
States will be represented beside the casket.
The Army of Northern Virginia and Army
of' Tennessee veterans will march side by
side just behind the caisson bearing the
remains of their lamented chief.

a call from John C. Calhoun,. President of
the New York Southern Society, about 100
gentlemen assembled in the private dining
room of the New York Hotel this afternoon
to draft resolutions touching the death of
Jefferson Davis, to hear some informal
tributes to his memory, and to arrange for
a memorial funeral service to be held in
this city at the same hour that the New Or
leans ceremonies take place.
F. C. Morehead, son of Governor More
head, of Kentucky, who was a classmate of
Jefferson Davis at West Point, introduced
General J. C. Calhoun, who was appointed
Chairman, and stated the purpose of the
meeting. In behalf of the representatives
of tbe State of Mississippi present, Colonel
W. H. Hardy spoke for .that State with
great feeling'at some length. He said:
COLONEL HAEDT'S EULOGY.
If we view him in the early davs of his vigor
ous manhood, at his hospitable home at Brier
field, where the great Father of Waters flows,
ire see him as tbe genial neighbor, the devoted
husband, loving father, kind master, successful
planter, polished gentleman, student and
scholar. If wefollowhlm to the lower House
of Congress, we behold him iu bis relation to
bis co-members, a courtly knight, whose word
was the symbol of truth itself, whose conduct
was the soul of honor, and whose lofty patriot
ism and fidelity were above the faintest whis
pers of criticism. And when called by his coun
try to defend her flag npon foreign soil, we firiU
bim at tbe bead of his regiment on the en
sanguined fields of Mexico, and especially at
Bnena Vista, the very impersonation of sol
dierly hearing and dauntless courage,
his regiment standing like an Im
penetrable wall of flaming fire that hurled
back In defeat the attacking legions of tbe
enemy. If we follow him to the Henato cham
bers of the United States we find him not only
the same courtly gentleman and polished
orator, but the peer In statesmanship, as v e ;
as in debate of Clay, Webster1. Cushlng ai.d
other statesmen and patriots, whose names and
characters constitute one of the pages of
American history, and when wa behold him at
that last scene in the Senate chambers of the

flag and the whole country, yet, impelled by a
sense of duty to his own people, he bade fare-

Several checks, amounting to $20,000, will
be presented at the Lawrence Bank for pay
ment to-day. If they are not cashed, the
Depositors' Committee will take charge of
them, and send them to Harrisburg, to tbe
Auditor General, as protested checks, and
ask him, after the expiration of 30 days, to
declare the bank insolvent.
Tbe committee, it will be remembered,
presented three checks, amounting to $500,
last Wednesday, which was refused. They
were sent to Harrisburg as protested checks.
It is the-intention to ask the bank officers to

the papers will follow the others to'Harris

We are asking you to 'con
