General Sheridan and the Aseai- lant of Christianity. Omoaco, May 23.—General Geo. A. Sheridan delivered his lecture “The Modern Pagan,” at the Chicago Opera House to-night to a large audience. Many prominent people were present. The lecture is in the natare of a reply to Colonel Ingersoll’s attacks upon Christianity, and was a masterly argument. It was pot his purpose, General Sheridan said, to utter a defense of Christianity, but merely to show the evil offects of the course abopted by Uolonel Ingersoll. That gentleman was charged by the Speaker with declining to meet men competent to discuss the question with him, He fled from the field when the only reslly sble man—Judge Jere Black—opposed him, In discussing the question of Christianity, Colonel Ingersoll creates capticus issues ; he utterly ignores the work of Christiani- ty, snd neither comprehends nor ap- the excelience snd magni- iroulution makes this paper an Uns | wok, Tracts, &o, in the mths insertions, aud 5 Bed inl ws 13566] 100 241, meets on the first Fri | O'Brien's Stormy Times.

O'Brien addressed a large and enthu- | sinstic meeting here to-day. Upon th, close, the people staried to go out, and a3 O'Brien stepped on the sidewalk he was recognized by a crowd of Oraoge- men on the other side of the steet, who | raised a savage ery of vengeance and rushed across the street, Broken stones and cobble stones began flying like hail. “Drag him out! kill him! tear him asunder !" shouted the mob, and they almost broke through O'Brien's body | guard, which consisted of American | epevial correspondents. As tne party turned in Wellington street, another shower of bricks and stones came crash ing through the crowd.

The crowd surged and O'Brien disap- peared, evidently into Newman's house, but to the present time nobody is cer- | tain of this. The erowd next rushed to Burtoett house, shouting “To h— with { home rule!” “Kill him!" | fired a volley of stones at the windows. | Wall, the correspondent, attempted to ele, and | pass the hotel but was recognized by the Orangemen, who went for hum with {a rush, Fe escaped, however, down side street.

The doctors say that the cartilages of the eight and ninth ribs are partially detatched ; there is also an indentation in the cartilages themselves. Inflam- mation of the base of the lungs Is the result, and besides O'Brien is suffering from a severe cold. FIREARMS THIS TIME, Haxicrox, May 23. Mr, O'Brien ar- rived here to-day and was cordially re- ceived, This evening be addresses 1 an audience of 2,000 persons in the rink, at the conclusion of which another at- tack was made upon him, This time with firearms, and again there was an- other miraculous escape, this escape, being accompanied by a wound in the wrist of one of O'Brien's faithful com- panions, O'Brien was sitting down after haviog made a vigorous speech in return for the vote of thanks passed, and Dennis Kilbride was on his feet engaged in » like task. Just then a man was observed on the platform leaning over and whispering something in ’Balen’s ear. It was noticed that (Brien shook his head as though in dissent. The man persisted. Finally (Brien arose and followed him.

The larg. est area of beautiful grass plot on which they drill is enclosed by 8 fence so high that no little urchin can scramble to the top or get aview of the lovely panorama within without paying his 25 cents, or climb the telegraph poles to view the cov- oted sight as Ben.

This will be a grand and thrilling spectacle. The drill ground is partially enclosed by a grand stand that will seat 15,000 persons. On Sunday next the cele brated divine Rev. T. De. Witt Talmage, will preach on the camp grounds to the swidiery. Applications are piling up for seats on that ocewsion, The beautiful green on the bank of the Potomac and from which the Washington Monument towers up 666 feet, is covered with snow white tents for the quartering of the troops, most of whom arrived on Saturday, Sunday and every train is bring- ing in more. This country has never wit. nessed in time of peace such military peg- eant as is in store for Washington and its thousands of visitors this week. Mors about it will be said in my next. Rails have movement Judicial circles are much agitated sm 0 who will be appointed to fll the vacancy on the Suprem Court Bench made by Lhe death of Justice Woods, Many promi- nent names bave been mentioned, the Lamar and It is 3 voded that the appointment will go» wo the South. Althougn bis name has 64 yet been mentioned, you need not be sirprised if Circuit Judge Jackson receiv. rumber including Secretary Atworney General Garland. Gener 8iiY Cun e« the appointment: Judge Jackson was loth to leave the Senate and only did at the enrnest soliciiation of the President It is believed that however much he might willing to accommodate the Presidebt he would not bave giv. en up his sent in the Senate unless he had esuse to beMive that when the opportuni ty arose he would be appointed to the U. 8. Suprem Court Bench. The Judge is not only an able jurist but is also from the South-—representing Tennessee in the Senate at the time of bis appointment jo the Clreuit Court Bench. In view of al! the circumstances, Judge Jackson is likely to receive the appointment. The Ministers of the Gospel inlthe Dik triot of Columbia are becoming very ag- gromive. Within the last week they bave agreed not to marry any divorced persons unless the divorce has been obtained for sdultry. Last Session of Congress they made a strenuous effort to have Congres, amend the divorce laws in force here so as to allow divorce for only ome or two onuses whereas at present there are seven or sight grounds under any one of which the bonds of matrimony may be dissolved. The efforts will be renewed the coming Congress. Now the divoros question ls partially soitied, the preachers have tak, on up for discussion and change the sub.

Hannmsnvno, May Beaver signed the congressional apportion. ment bill this afternoon Tae most important resolution adopted at the recent annual conven- tion of the Grand Division of Railway conductors, held at New Orleans, was one looking towards the licensing of conductors and engineers on the same principle as are steamboat pilots. By this means none but the best men would be employed as conductors and engineers. They would have to go through a rigid examination before they could receive their license papers. The resolution was favorably con- sidered. Grand Chief Condoctor C. 8. Wheaton, Grand Secretary and Treasurer W. P. Daniels and the Executive Board were instructed to meet with the aonual convention of railway general managers and endeavcr to have them endorse the proposed measure and ask Congress to pass law licensing conductors and en- gineers, 8.
