LEGAL ROBBERY.
There is a general impression in New
York that Jay Gould had absorbed Cyrus
Field’s holdings of Manhattan Elevated
Railroad stock. Reports varied widely,
and the only facts obtainable were, that
50.000 .shares had been transferred, and
that ft cheek for $4,500,000 lor Gould’s
account had been given on the Fourth
National Bank. The bank officials re¬
fused to make any statement regarding
the matter. An operator, who claims to
know, said that the transfer was simply
a dissolution of the pool of 150,000 shares
equably divided between Sage, Gould
and Field.

to him with a true woman’s devotion all

repentant husband’s releaso. Pardons

NAVAL ACTIVITY.
Chief Naval Constructor Wilson, who
has just returned to Washington from
Philadelphia, reports that the work on
No. 3 (the “Baltimore”) and gunboat yard,
No. 1, now building at Mr. Cramp’s
is progressing rapidly. A large quantity has
of material for the dyuamite cruiser
also arrived, and men are at work placing
the keel blocks and preparing the foun¬
dation for the craft. The department’s gunboat
inspectoral Baltimore, where
No. 2 is Jouilding, reports that the cast
steel stern frame for that, vessel has just
reached the yard.
TUB CAPTCBKD FLAiVg,
There arc upward of 1,005 flags in of
what is for the present the flag-room
thu War Department. Of these nearly
600 are “rebel flags," so named in tho
record book bearing the title, “Record of
Rebel flags matured by the Union troops
since April 10, 1801.” Over Confederate 200 arc
Federal colors taken by
i roops and found in Richmond after the
evactuation of that city. The balance
are also Federal colors, regimental flags
turned over to the War Department by
the various state organizations. The
real history of the Confederate flags
would be rnoro interesting than tiie few
lines each ouo gets iu the record book.
Home of these are made of women’s
dresses. Where cashmere or other wool¬
en material was used, as in several, they
have been eaten into shreds by moths.
They were, no doubt, worn out when
placed in the department 20 years ago,
but now they are literally in tatters.
Blues have faded into white, and red in¬
to faint pink. The stars have dropped
out, and when unfurled little bits fall to
the floor. The largest flag in the lot is
the garrison recaptured flag of Fort Tyler, Wisconsin, West
Point, by the 1st
2d Indiana and 7th tiny Kentucky regiments. from
The smallest is a g /uidon taken
tho First Irish brigade, or liDth New is
York in that brigade. No. 236 Mc- a
Union flag, “made by Mrs. Hetty
Kwen, floated from her house at the time
the city of Nashville, Tenn., was in pos¬
session of the South, and found still
-waving there when Gen. Buell’s army
took ihe city.” A flag captured these from
Gen. Longstreet’s pasted corps had tho staff; re¬
marks on paper on
“Mr. Yankee, you will please turn this
flag, staff and shoulder belt over to the
0th Maine; was captured at St. Gilmore
on 29th October, 1864, by Third Forks
Regt. Vol.” (Signedj “Big Rebel.”
A LADY WON.
Among those examined for pro¬
motion in the quartermaster-general’s
office by the Civil Service board, was but
one hysterics lady-clerk, and she neither went in¬
to nor exhibited any excitement
whatever. She wag cool and placid, and
paused with higher percentages than most
of the men. The three gentlemen who
failed to pass the examination, failed
upon the very matters that were of prac¬
tical, every-day importance in the offices
in which they were serving.
