And, perhaps, its record in this regard keep Its memory green when in other respects it deserves profound forge tf ulness. CoL W. O.

Bradley, of Garrard, the most brilliant and distinguished member of his party in Kentucky, is in the city. He has been somewhat annoyed by the report that ha was here working for Capt. Blackburn in the recent Senatorial contest. The truth is that be was not trying to Induce the Repnb-: lican members to fbrsaTte Bennett and vote or Blackbarn, as some have imagined; bat, i being a warm riend of Blackburn, he asked some of his friends who were members of the Legislature, in the eTent a 'Vote was taken in the joint convention between Williams and Blackburn. to cast their ballots for the latter, provided the Republicans had no nominee.

The statement of thexa dispatches of a day or two ago did not make Mr. Bradley's position different from what is here set forth. Any construction different from this is due to distortion. mere is, perhaps, some organized opposition to Col. BratUey as delegate from the State at large to Chicago, but in spite of this be will be over whalmingly elected, as he deserves to be.

A friend of mine said to me; "The Repub lican delegation from Kentucky to Chicago without Bradley la it would be like 'Ham let' with the pricipal character out." The joint committee on the Southern Ei position last night determined to appropriate $15,000 to! the Exposition: This amount they place under the control of five Commissioners.

At. 5 o'clock this morning citizens of Elletteville, seven miles north, on the N. A. and C. railway, were aroused from their slumbers by the alarm of fire, occasioned by the burn ing of what is called the ''Matthews old homestead," one mile north of that little village; and shortly after the entire Tillage, numbering some 400 inhabitants, surrounded the burning building.

While effort were being made by a party of gentlemen, headed by Peter T. Matthews, to save a pile of lumber near a little frame smoke-house, which was also on fire, 17 one-pound dynamite cartridges exploded with a deafening noise and with fearful effect. shattering window-panes in houses a mile or more distant from the scene of the calamity. 1 he burning building was situated near the immense stone quarry of P.

Matthews the fact that there were 17 cartridges, each containing a pound of dynamite, in an iron pot in the little smoke-house, and waa di rected by Mr. MaUon to put them in the magazine, as they had. been there for soma time, and there would be danger in leaving them thus exposed. Coeman promised to remove them, but shortly afterward forgot them. Mr.

T. P. Matthews, the senior member of the and hie brother also a member of the firm, supposed these orders had been obeyed, so that when he led the group of neighbors to a point near, the little building at the back of the bouse to save the lumber, he never suspected that danger and death were lurking there. While in the act of dragging the planks away from tha flames the roof of the smoke-house fell in, jarring the cartridges and thus causing thorn to ax- plode. The wonder Is, considering the multitude crowding around the building, that the mortality list is not much larger, -yet a large number of the bystanders were knocked.

Cincinnati may have ber riots and her lawlessness, but withal she retains the prestige and glory which doth badge tbe Dramatic Festival. Rarely In any city, even cultured Boston, can such a goodly company of talented actresses and actors be gathered together to portray Shakespeare's wonderful creations. Though Booth and Irving and Mary Anderson were missing from tha brilliant circle, their absence did not create a void, and those supplying their places caused us to forget their existence for the nonce and claimed our closest attention by their able impersonations of the Immortal bard's heroes and heroines. The audiences of this season's Dramatic Festival were disappointing in point of size, yet they displayed tbe culture and refinement of the three citfes. The Music Hall is the moat suitable edifice in tbe country for such an event and is a pride to the city, one of whose has by bis munificence enabled the building to be provided for such occasions.

Tha festival this year is not so ambitious as the nrecedine celebra tions, but has, been able to bold its own against all the brilliant annals of years before. Musio Hall has an immense seating capacity, and it is taxed to its utmost to accommodate the interested spectators. The interior is finished in native Ohio woods and is a fitting testimonial of, the State's vast re sources. Tbe scene presented by the hall on one of these festival nights is beyond com and throws Its glamour over alL LAST right's performance; of "Othello" was, in my opinion, the ablest of them alL Yet how unfortunate that the audience should have been the' sinail- esc. of the week.

We can only pity those who missed it and say nothing of the taste of tbe Cinciunatians. who prefer Romeo and Juliet" to "Othello." True. it is an unnatural play with a baneful moral, yet it affords such a wide scope lor masterly acting, and abounds in strong points. The bouse was comfortably foil, not crowded, and a very appreciative one, unusually so. I understand Cincinnati audiences are very phlegmatic, and are seldom startled out of their well-bid decorum.

Last even ing they must have forgotten their habitual calm and allowed "tbe elegance, facility and golden cadence of poetry," in conjunction with powerful rendition of tbe characters of the Play, to win from them an unprecedented amount of entnusiasm. uucn had been expected of this cast, and the most hypercritical had held themselves in reserve to sit in judgment upon tne lucky or un lucky actors. The boxes were temporarily 'Placed, and tbe six were taken, anny Dav enport-occupied tbe Uirectors' box, and Maria Prescott one of the upper procenlums. The former woatan is a very striking beauty, an i is rather bizarre in her dress. Mane rrescott is a native 6f Covington, and has been kindly noticed and criticised by ber fellpw- citizens.

From the moment tha curtain rose the bouse was' steeped in tbe in' toxitation of appreciation, and were bewil dered and enthralled by the actors before them. It was not as though you were listen ing to a recitation ef the tragedy, for self and time and place were forgotten, and you were in Venice and Cyprus, a heathless and interested spectator of tbe scenes being enacted. "The very air of the time was promising; it opened the eyes of expecta tion." THOS.

UISI IX THE TITLX. EOLS and Fred. Warde as logo test my powers of criticism far beyond their capacity, and I must leave it to abler and long-practiced men to write their critiques upon tueir en actmentsof the two greatest of Shakespeare's conceptions. Kleene has won his laurels and made rapid strides in his profession. Ser era! seasons ago he appeared in the same role in this citv, and was made; to feel by the vigorous onslaughts of the critics that tragedy-was not his forte, and would be to bjm a serious undertaking.

Ito one who saw him then, I am told, ever dreamed of his ability to do the excellent work be did last night. One man told me that; after seeing him then, be had expected to hear of his degenerating to a stock actor, and asked me to imagine his surprise on last- evening Aeene's conception of tbe character differs widely from many others: it certainly is original, and not withoutserious- faults and blemishes. Yet none fot bit warmest ad mirers and adherents had the remotest idea he could achieve tae signal success he did hut evening. loves to rant and rave. and has an unaccountable tendency to tear bis hair and make horrible grimaces, yet his bitterest enemies must perforce concede his wonderful ability as an exponent of the part.

His rendition of lago was almost as. masterful as Kaene's Othello, and bis facial expres sions could not have been better.

Of Mod leska. as Deadtniona. there can not be said anything', however extravagant, that will overstep the bounds of truth. There is little for her to do save look sweet and pretty, and play the eager, unfortunate pleader. This she does to the verge of distraction to her lord, I imagine, and was as.

winsome and coquetish as possible. ICRS. AOXZS BOOTH maae nernrst appearance last evening as Emilia, and won deserving and earnest praise and a royal reception. Her desire to do her best was accelerated by her enthusiastic recalls, and her success was "very flatter ing. Modjeska is a woman of refined in' stincts and ia innately and intuitively a lady not spoiled by the world's bounce and flat tery, and capable of performing graceful ac tions.

An incident of last evening will illus trate my views. After the fourth act, when Jairo murders lioderxao, ne was en thusiasticaUv recalled, and came forth leading Modjeska and Mrs. Booth. Two' beautiful iloral offerings were laid upon the stage for tbe divine Modjeska, aud arde stepped forward to receive them. Bending bis knee in homage, he gracefully presented tne smaller to Moaieska, and then with manly want of tact laid the other before her.

Sbe quickly laid the larger and handsomer of the two before Mrs. Booth, bowioz low. with ber bands on her heart to the celebrated actress. Xot many women of Modjeska position could have done so graceful and lady-like a thing. Many would have been so elated by their triumph and selfishly forgotten their less fortunate sister.

Of the minor characters of the play I will say. little. The Cassio of of Barton Hill as very finely done, as was the Jiotlerigo of W. P. bbeldon.

The scenery was the same of last year, and the Senate Chamber andstrete scene in Cyprus elicited warm applause. The stage daring the first act presented a most beautiful and gorgeous appearance. Tbe Senators, tbe rich dresses of the ladies in waiting, and the gay apparel of the torch-bearers, with the rich Moorish dress ot Othello, helped to make the vista more magnificent. There was one serious fault in 'the stare arrangement, the light vas not sufficiently strong, and the faces of the actors were too much in shadow, THX costtxes. I ran not do justice to the costume, I fear, and ean only say of Keene's and Warde's that they were magnificent and costly, that oi Me termer oemg, ci course, Jiooruu in de-sign and ae I am ignorant of the intricacies of Moorish toilette, sbaU have to leave the rich and varied detail to your imagination; Mrs.

Booth was rowned in a royal trarple welvei areas, conventionally Venetian, and the square neck was ornamented with a Venetian collar of gold lace and jewels. Her jewels were not profuse, but costly and rare. Of Mad. Modjeska's toilettes. I moat say, at the outset, that they were all tpurelouslr be- coming and in perfect harmony.

They were sympnonies ol color, im nrst onamme waa of white satin and brocaded velvet train. The corsage and high Venetian colar waa trimmed with her famous emeralds. In the, second act she appeared in a marvelous con-' fection of Kile-green plush, with a petticoat of brocaded satin of 1-eautiful texture, and thrown over her shoulders was a diaphanous mantle of silken gauze. Her bead was dressed with a coquettish, jaunty cap of tbe same texture and coioras ber dress. Her jewels for this costume were sparkling ruble.

In the third, act iter costume was a loose-flowing robe of gold brocade, open over a petticoat of white, heavily frosted with silver. Madame Modjeska understands the art of dressing herself (do not think me humdrum, and it ia rather a reflection, in it not, to accuse ber of studying the art?) and! consider it a very essential point. now, lean saieiy say mas no more ap preciative audience ever gathered in Music Hall, and tbe performance of "Othello," with such a star cast, will be a most memor able event. This afternoon "As Ton Like It" will be repeated, and this evening the bill is "Henry IV." I noticed Miss Jnliet Davison, of Louis ville, among the audience. SouKls.

GALLATIN STOCK SALE. Inaogoral Offering of Blooded, Oolts at the Natural Home of the Bsce-horse in Teasessee. GOOD riGURES REALIZED. Special toxthe Courier-Journal. GalLatix, April 29.

As tbe first of. a series of sales, it attracted buyers from far and near. The elements were all that could be desired, as the day was one of the prettiest of the spring season.

Tbe road, after the arrival of the Nashville train, was a mass of vehicles of every description, from a sulky to the finest barouche. Hours before the time for the sale to begin the crowd began to assem and when 12:30, the appointed hour for the commencement, arrived the crowd that filled the amphitheater was simply many ladies being present. P. C. Kidd, of Lexington, Kentucky's famous auctioneer, did tbe selling, and the youngsters were marshaled out before tbe stand and were disposed of rapidly.

Twenty-four head were sold and brought an average price of $377. The eighteen yearlings, brought an average of Six two-year-old geldings averaged $2Si. Tbe largest price paid was for a Longfellow yearling colt, 1,00, bought by S. D. Bruce, of New York.

April 28. 1884. Have yors ever visited Longwood! Well, if you haven't, you'd jnsS Longwood embraces YJO0 acres or more of tha finest bluegrasi land a Keatucky sun e'er shone npoau It is situated aboat three miles east of lit. Sterling and about a quarter of a mile north of the Chesapeake and Ohio railroad. Having accepted of tha princely hospitality of its host and hostess for the space of two days, and all by chance, I.

am prepared to speak from the book, and only regret that it is utterly beyond the power of a common newn- paper scribe to render tbe place and its clever people full jnstioe. But I'm persevering. I'll try my best; and. in the language of tbe Hon. Jackuella Agamemnon Pythagoras Hendricks, of Fleming county, "If at first I don't so.

coed, I'll keep on eucldn' till I do suck seed." L0SQWOOD is the borne of Gen. John S. Williams, yclept Cerro Gordo, bis wife, his step-daughter. Miss Ida Hamilton, and his step-eon, CoL A. W.

Hamilton. On the broad acres to every side of them the Short-born blooms and flourishes to the extreme limit of most perfect "Shorthorndom," while CoL Hamilton, or "Little Willie," as he is familiarly called by hie most intimate Fleming county friends, rides around, oversees and directs all tha blooming. But more of that hereafter. I A drive up a broad avenue skirted by lofty, maple, oak, elm and walnut; trees brings yon to the Longwood mansion, situated on a lovely wooded knoll to the north of tbe Owingsville pike, and thoaa who once invade its precincts depart with a Tery well defined idea that they have been somewhere. As I drove op, CoL Hamilton met me and bade me welcome as follows: "Now, Air.

Crow, we have a very unpretentious little country home here, but all there is of it consider yourself welcome to just ae long as you remain with us." Now, I know the Colonel is a sensible, matter-of-fact gentleman, and while I don't like to say bard words against any one who treats me cleverly, it would rip me up the back if I failed to jot down my im pression, mat wnen tne colonel spoke of "AW UNPRETENTIOUS LITTLE HQMx," ne was prevaricating, and, to make things a little slroneer. he prevaricated knowinelr. 11 subsequent observations, upon which all of the Courier-Journal people will be enlightened, will substantiate me, I sure, especially when the fact is taken Into consideration that I am at present, writing under oath and rarely, if ever, lie, even wnen not under the aforesaid regulator. But with all this, tbe Colonel is Long- wood premier, and a pre-eminently popu lar premier he is. He made many friends in raxuuort daring THX SENATORIAL TUO, and as I was there myself during the whole of it, and am moreover a very observant young thing, candor compels me to say that wine iiuams iorcee nsa xoJiowea tne ad vice of the Colonel, and Senator Rodney Haggard, of Clark, on a very momentous question, Gen.

Williams would have suc-l ceeded himself. But let us return to tbe Col onel popularity in his own neighborhood. Throughout the length, depth and breadth of Montgomery county he is best known. I do not think you could pick out a man who is more universally admired and re- The rich, the poor, whites, Presbyterians, Catholics all love and re spect mm. And why I Why simply for this: Although vary wealthy, he does not allow either his money or bis prosperity to change his naturally kind disposition in bis relations with others.

As a poor Irishman in Mt. Sterling remarked to me: "He's the same kind hair ted, jligant gintlemaa to ivery wan, anu may uoa cuss aica ana ivery wan of his footsteps!" BROTHER AND SISTER. Some one having propounded the conundrum. What is sweeter than booevt has been checkmated by the answer, the love of Drotners ana sisters; ana 1 do not believe that answer could command more fitting living examples than CoL Hamilton and bis sister, Ml Ida. But 1 rear I'm diving little too deep into private family affairs.

Their home is A FiarXCT PALACE, ana is nttea up with every luxury and improvement which wealth and taste can command. A glance over the 1,800 volumes which grace the library sneivesu sumcient to snow tne cultivated and extended literary tastes of this intel lectual and happy family. As applicable to the place itself I may first mention a set. of complete volnmes of the American Short- born Herd Book, and then as to the tastes of its occupants, tbe following: Tha works of all tbe standard authors, in poetry and prose Schiller, Chancer, Spenser, Scott, Poe, Carlyle French Revolution and1 Miscellanies, Lord Bacon's Works, Motley's Lmtcn Republic, Edwards on Revivals, Nelson on Infidelity, Hugh Miller's Foot Prints of the Creator, almost every standard religious and geological work. Commercial Dictionaries, Smithsonian.

Kentucky Agricultural and Insur ance re porta, and tha Lord only knows what In short, Longwood is the house of a Ken tucky country gentleman of a very elevated type. ENGLISH NOVELS have made tbe novel reading world familiar with the characteristics of English country gentlemen; their hospitality, their broad acres, and above all tbe comfort of their Around- their hearth-stones gather their friends from far and near, and all tbe comforts and all the refinements of modern civilization are called in to make them happy. It is the same at this place. There is none of that pretentious suoadyness wnicn so disgusts one among tbe wealthy parvenues of tbe large commercial centers. Comfort, not stvle, elegance, not attempted show, are the rule.

The house is large and roomy, and seems to be meant to accommodate a large number of guests, as no doubt it does. Every room is a model of comfort. Great feather beds, inviting you to alamber, remind one of the good old Knickerbocker homes, about which Irving loved to write. The fireplaces are broad, hearty and hospitable, Just tha kind to make your heart warm and fill you with a feeling of satisfaction toward yourself and all the world. The furniture is in accord with what you ould expect in a home where comfort ruled and not show.

Sofas, made to sit on and to lie on and not to look at, are scattered about and are covered with rich and warm-looking rugs, while bright and substantial-looking carpets are spread over the floors. The three graces of modern civilizationorder, elegance and I comfort, show themselves everywhere, and the greatest of toeae, as my genial host and bis sister win ten you, is comrort. But I am afraid to pre a ray descriptive, -powers too close. I've i dread gone further than lever did before, and, knowing my deficiencies, I will have to iaaiafe on the vail being "drawed." A PEEP AT Fint STOCK. I A ride on 'ilooded saddle-horses over only a small portion of the farm revealed a thousand interesting aihta.

Within hailing distance of tlx i family mansion is a well-equipped stable, presided over by Hugh Hughes, an out-and-out Englishman, both polite and intelligent, under whose supervision are several trotters who can step their miles in 2:40 and better. To the rear of this stable is a broad sweep of bluegrass pasture-Land, occupied by a portion of the female element of the Longwood herd. In this pasture, under a spreading oak, is the grave of GkXEVA WXLDETES, the former sturdy old patriarch of the Long-wood herd. He died during the Senatorial canvass, just 1 about the time Hon. Wm.

Perry left for Lexington, and after his demise was thus honored as befitted his deserts and services. His "baremical" duties are now ably filled by Barrington Duke a stout and lusty six-year-old, lately at the bead of the Flat Creek herd, and the wicked deceiver of many a rabbit-faced belter.
