In a revenue rauL in. Alabama, George Kirk, a notorious, moon . shiner, was killed; he was an escaped convict from the Georgia peniten tiary. - In the Chicago market yesterday there was a break'in prides of grain products brought about; by the heavy selling of the previous day, and provisions furnished a very uncertain field for speculators. It is expected that M. Goblet 'will be Prime Minister in the French Cabinet. The President yesterday sent to" the Senate the nomination of Hon. L. Q. C. Lamar, to be Associate Jus tice of the Supreme Court, and also the nominations of several Cabinet officers and assistants. f Lord Mayor Sullivan, of Dublin, -has been carried to Tullamore jail to: prevent the daily levees which he was holding in the Dublin jail. Two chil dren, aged eight and ten, were burned to death in a Minnesota village Mon day night, and the father and mother narrowly escaped with their lives, by the burning of the family residence. The colored men of Minnesota have organized a protective and in dustrial league, lor the advancement of their race and to encourage colored immigration to that State. In Georgia, yesterday, four men were killed outright and four others seri ously injured by the collapse of a water tower, and by the explosion of n. boiler three, negroes were killed. The British steamship Kimberly is ashore off Cape Henry," and she will probably soon break up; she was abandoned by her crew on -Monday An escaped penitentiary convict from Georgia was recently married to a young lady in Mississippi; he was recognized and arrested yesterday, and will be carried , back to prison.

Our circumscribed space precludes either analvsis or extended comment. It seems that Mr. Page the Vir ginia story writer,' did have a warm reception in the New York Literary Congress, if the- Sun's report can be trusted. The TForW intimated other wise. The Sun says: "The two authors who wero listened tc with the greatest avidity were uadoubtedl Air. Frank Stockton and Mr. Thomas Nel son Page; and this fact affords an encourag ing indication- of tbe justice of genuine literary popularity. The humor of 'Rud der Orange and the exquisite patbos' of 'Mars Chan' aud 'My Lady' merit indeed all the admiration that caa poeasb'.y bo be stowed upon them, and this was evidently the opinio a of the intelligent crowd who came tojisten -to tbe American authors' reading at Chickcring Hal)."

Preparatlofas were completed last night by the ladies of the' Lutheran Church for their "Jahrmarkt.,, The booths are all in order, and the deco rations are tastily - arranged. The whole system of interior decoration of the City Hall is economical, but very pretty. " To the left of the entrance the pub lic will have a. good view of the Art Gallery andvMuseum, where will be displayed many historical and inter- teresting articles. Three celebrated French rifles,' used in the Franco- Prussian war, -with which the Ger mans feared they could not compete, were sent by a German Infantry Company, of Charleston, S. C, to the Jahrmarkt. . This Com pari y is said to be the i-oldest German; "slraetzer" Company Jn the United States, of which the South should be Justly proud. In compliance with a special request made by this Company, King William sent them six "Chaseepots." These are, as far as we know, the only guns of the make in this coun try. Tbey are, therefore, very Inter esting and valuable, and a special committee will take charge of . them while they are on exhibition at the "markt." A sabre, the prop erty of the grandfather of Mr. Ed. Wessell has been contribu ted, which was used in the war against the Turks. Another curiosi ty will be a medal which was pre sented for bravery to the late Henry Glameyer, whose sisters, Mesdames Hanser and J. G. Gieschen, are well known' here. To the left of the Art Gallery and Museum,' beginning at the door, and extending nearly all the way across the ball, are tents, or booths, reacti ng to the Winter Gadren. The lat ter is surrounded by large and hand some trees, freshly cut from the for ests, presenting a pleasing and artis tic effect. The rostrum of the hall is arranged as a Summer Garden, and extending from this to the entrance, there are a series of booths, each having its respective name, in Ger man,, placed conspicuously near the entrance to the booth. - In the center of the hall is the Floral Cave. The Shooting Gallery will be pre sided over by Messrs. J. G. Olden buttel and J. G. L. Gieschen. Air guns have been provided for the oc casion, and were brought here through the courtesy of Capt. Ingram, of the steamer ulf Stream, from New York. These rifles are positively noiseless. and the gallery will be boarded up, which will prevent any one being in jured accidentally. Every precaution will be taken to secure safety and pleasure, not only in this respect, but throughout the entire hall by gentle men who act as floor managers, to whom the guests are referred for any information desired, as well as to re ceive all complaints of losses, etc. The Jahrmarkt will be opened to the.publio at seven o'clock p, m. each evening, commencing to-night, and continuing until Friday night, inclu sive. Admission, each night, ten cents. An opportunity will be afforded to have your fortune told in English and German. Quite a pleasant affair occurred at St. John's Hall last evening. After the conferring of the Master Mason's degree by St. John's Lodge No. 1 of Masons, a Past Masters jewel was presented Past Master Samuel Nor throp by St. John's Lodge, No. 1.
