Two hundred and filty-scven dramat ic, operatic, concert, minstrel and vari ety companies and circuses of high and low degree are noted in the New York Mirror as having dates ahead for this season. And there are more to follow. A wild man, captured in Ocheecee Swamp, near Chattahoochee, and car riedto Tallahassee, had been swim ming in Ocheecee Lake, from island! to island, and. when taken, was entirely destitute of clothing, emaciated and covered with a phenomenal growth of hair. Mr.'IIalstead's N.ew York campaign orjan is sold to the newsboys at five copies for a cent, and sometimes given away. The thirst for Republican cam paign mendacity does not appear to have realized the sanguine expectations f the projectors of Air. Halstead's New York newspaper scheme. It is announced in New York that several men of the Greely expedition aal a number of sailors of the relief M will appear in a theatrical per formance there,' and have been engaged 10 remain "on the stage until their fur ploughs expire.

The new railroad cuttings about Ber gen Hill, N. J., have opened large de posits of odd and rare minerals. They are continually visited by mineralogists and students from scientific schools. During sudden changes of tempera, ture siphons conlaining mineral water become dangerous. A rapid rise of the thermometer will sometimes increase the pressure 100 per cent, and produce violent explosion. The Indianapolis libel case sgainst Blaine promises to be the leading topic in the Maine press. The Portland Argus calls the suit a bit of bluff, and says that it made the same charges in 1857, and that it could not get Blaine into court. ' Mrs. Emmeline Rogers, the "Texas Cattle Queen," has turned the half cen tury line,- while her recently acquired husband is twenty-three years her junior-She has induced hini to abandon the ministry, but permitted him to be elected to the legislature. Americans are not welcome at severs al London hotels. Their landlords say that if a house gets the reputation "of being preferred by American it is avoided by the English. Nv, the American patronage is to be had in sufficient numbers only, during a few summer months, whereas the English hold3 good the year round. Naturally the, hotel people prpfer the English business and discourage the foreign or American. They.do not absolutely re fuse accommodation, but, when it suits them, they manage to be full.

S. Willis called the meeting to order and Mr. W. H. Straus3 was made temporary chairman. Col. E. D. Hall was present and, upon being introduced to the assemblage, made a capital speech, full of good, sound, practical common sense advice in which he ur ged the most perfect and thorough organization. His speech was listened to with profound attention, broken only by the rounds of applause with which he was frequently greeted. At the con clusion of his remarks a per manent organization was effected by electing Mr. W. II. Strauss temporary chairman, to be the -permanent President. His election was unan imous. Mr. John Barry was mnde Vice President and Mr. George S. Wil lis was made Secretary and Treasurer by acclamation. It was -voted lhat a committtee of five, to be selected by the President, be appointed to draft a gov ernment of the organization. There was then an enrollment of membersr after which the meeting adjourned sub ject to 4he call of the President. The meeting was characterized by earnest nesi and there was a manifest determi nation that the Democrats of the First Ward shall do their whole duty in the campaign. Personal. Maj. J. C. Winder was in the city to-day. Mr. J. H. Muse, of the Star, return ed to the city this morning, his wife turning with bin? . Messrs. R. H.'

Amelia Bradley and Eliza Nixon, both colored, were brought before the Mayor this morning charged with dis orderly conduct. In the cases of Ame lia a fine of $3 was considered suffi. cient to satisfy the city's wounded dig, nity, while $5 was not considered too much for the more obstreperous Eliza, but as neither had the requisite num ber of shekels they were sent below to mourn and pineJn a dungeon cell. A Kindly Act. In consequence of the - serious sick ness of Mrs. A. Weill, the Cornet Cor- cert Club did not practice in their band room last night. As it was their regu lar time for practice, however. Mine host Schloss. of the Commercial Hotel, very kindly tendered them the use of his parlors: an act of courtesy which they appreciated and accepted, in conse quence of which the dwellers on Mark et street were regaled with some fine music." " Broom Factory. Mr. John B. Watson, of Salisbury, brother to Mr. A. W. Watson, has re moved to the ' city with his family. where he will hereafter reside. He has, we understand, opened a factory fy the manufacture of brooms and mat tresses on Fourth street, between" Red Cross and Campbell, where he is tem porarily located but expects to open a depot down town this Fall. Mr. Watson has been engaged in this business for many years past his brooms having been awarded a premium at several fairs, among others ihe State Fair. r Fine Fruit.
