Proprietors. men l-d&wly War on Ex-Confederate Aid to the drand Nlarobal. Washington, February 21. General Sherman has concluded to modify his order as chief marshal of the inaugural ceremonies, so that all classes ol organ izations, including th lioys -in Blue, the Grand Army of the Republic, &c, will be placed in the first division, un der command of General Ayres. ' The second division will be composed of the Pennsylvania troops exclusively, and will be massed east of the capitol. The programme will also be modified so as to leave the north side of Pennsylvania avenue and the cross streets north of the avenue entirely clear for specta tors. General Sherman will issue the official programme of the procession in a day or two, which, it is thought, will be so arranged as to meet the wishes of nil conc6mt5cl The committee on arrangements for the inaugural ceremonies at the capitol will issue tickets of admission to the e-alleriea of the Senate chamber, strict lv coiresnondincr in number to. their limited capacity, to be distributed as follows: To each Senator, 4; to Senators-elect, members of the House of Representatives, delegates, heads of de partments, and justices of the Supreme Court, 2 each. The diplomatic gallery will be strictly reserved for the fami lies of members of the diplomatic corps, and the reporters' gallery for represen tatives of the press. Seats will also be reserved in th galleries for heads of bureaus. No other tickets will be is sued for the galleries, and no person will be admitted to the Senate wing or the rotunda except on presentation of a ticket, which will be good only for the place indicated. - The antasonism between General Sherman, who is chief marshal of the inauguration procession, andthe military committee, which clainjsto nave the ngnt to arrange lub yiw-Q-ramme and lav out its route, took-tae form of open warfare to-night, the com mittee adootins a route ana iorm oi procession different from that annoanc pH hv GpTipral Sherman. The committee also aaoptea a resolu tion requesting the executive commit tee to appoint ex-Union officers in place of Generals Fields and Fletcher, who are ex-Confederates, and who were re cently appointed aids of the graffd mar shal, declaring 4,hat it is objectionable to many who will take part in the pro cession to march' under the orders of ex-Confederates.

About otie-, third of the State of Florida is a nuge swamp, termed "The Everglades," a dark, impenetrable, unknown region. "No white man has ever fully explored it, and all that is knewn ot it is a great J swamp, wiin a iramoer oi .isutes uerc and there, and islands upon which roam ferocious wild beasts. The project of reclaiming this wonderfully rich country has been talked of for years, and has long Deen couaiuereu leasiuie by many engineers. Some time since the state of Florida made a move m the matter, which is likely to culminate in the reclamation of the immense body of land that has lain under water - TT J fOr a tffQttsana years unuer con tract witb tfeeState of Flondaa Phil adelphfti tclffiJpairy-iS about undertaking this erreat scheme. The leading man in the enterprise is Hamilton DiBSton, a veunir eentleman of business energy arid ample fortune, and present head of the saw manufacturing firm of Henry Disston & Sons. Associated with him are ex-Sheriff Wm. H. Wright, W. C Parsons, Whitman H. Drake, A. B. Linderman, all of this city; I. Corryell, of Florida, and others. Under the agreement already made with the State the company are requireu 10 uegm aui veys Within sixty days, and within six montns to put a iorce equai wo one uuu dred men on the works, and tsontinue as expeditiously as possible until it is completed. It is proposed to drain the land by a canal and Lake Okeechobee to the (Jaloosakacnee mver, wnicn em un ties into the Gulf of Mexico. Another canal may also be constructed to the east, tapping the St. Lucie River, which flows into the Atlantic. These canals will entirely drain the swamp, and from ten to twelve million acres of the richest land in the world will be reclaimed. The company will receive for the work one-half of the land recov ered, and it is expected that this wtll largely repay all expenditure of money that may be made in the work. The company will organize at once with Hamilton Disston as president. It is proposed to issue 1,000,000 shares of stock at $10 par value. Each share will carry with it the right to an acre of land. The proceeds of 50,000 shares will be used as the woking capital.

Foster, the spiritualist, gave a per formance at Newberry. S. C, the othor night, which Came' near having a trag ic ending. The Newberry Herald tells it thus : "Mr. jaeger, one oi me com mittee, drank some of the water that had been turned into wine ; a few min utes afterward he became very sick. He went to Dr. rant's drug store, and bv:the aid of antidotes was relieved of danger. Saturday he had Mr. Fos ter arrested for poisoning him, and a preliminary examination was held be fore Judge Parker Saturday night, From the examinatian it appears that the wine' was the result of the mix ture of tannic acid and some com pound of iron. There being no intent to poison, and Dr. Garmany testifying that there was not enough acid used to kill, the prisoner was discharged. Mr. J seger has been quite sick since Satur day night but is now well again." rhe Best Shirt in this ?
