r v TAMMANY'S CHIEF. WHAT JOHN KELLY SAYS ABOUT THE POLITICAL SITUATION. _ View* on the Tariff l?sue?John's Confidence In Democratic Snecess. New Youk, April 22.?Tammany will send 4.00 representatives to the Democratic convention at Chicago. "W? propose," said Mr. John Kelly, good natcredlv, ':to do our part in keeping up the enthusiasm." "For any particular candidate?'-' was asked. ' Well, now, to tell the truth, I have not yet paid much attention to candidates. I am sorry to say that some folks t'niuk Tammany is going to the convention to make trouble. Such is not the case. The convention will be harmonious, and whoever the candidate may be, it is certain that he will rcceive the support of the united Democracy." "And do you say that without reservation as to any prominent Democrats?" "I do, most emphaticaally. Tammany will snpport any candidate who receives the nomination of the Democratic National Convention." "IIow about Mr. Tilden?' "I do not care to discuss him at present. I know that there are many who want him to be nominated, but I understand that he does not wish the nomination. That is settled. So far as Mr. Tilden's intellect is concerned, I believe him to be strong, but I fear that he could not bear the physical strain of a protracted canvass or endive the fafigues of office."

J The Virginia Scallawaj*s in State Conven J tion--Billy, the Traitor, Cheered as th< I Black Man's Friend. j Richmond, Va., April 23.?Th( : Coalition Convention assembled hen ! at noon to-day. There were 739 dele | gates in attendance, representing | everv county in the State. About one [ third of the delegates were colorec i men. (Jn all sides it is conceded tha j this is one of the most intelligent i Readjuster Conventions ever held ii | the State. About half-past 12 Senatoi ! Mahoue appeared upon the platform ! and, as Chairman of the State Execn I tive Committee, called the Convent ioi I to order. He was cheered vociferous ; ly as llie "black man's friend" when h( j uime to the front of the platform t( j call the meeting to order. "When the ! cheering subsided, lie in a fewwords ; after acknowledging the life-long ob I ligations which he would feel for th< proud consideration and distinctioi : bestowed upon him, said they had me j to take grave and serious concern ii ; public measures which would mak< ! life, liberty and the pursuit of happi i ness the measure of justice in Virgiuia j He urged harmony of proceedings t< give force to their action, and thei ! nominated Major Lamb, of Norfolk, a: temporary Chairman. Major Lamb's nomination was greet ed with applause," and he at onci stepped forward and eloquently aw j earnestly outlined the purposes am j objects of the convention. They wen , to work for protection to labor, frei j education to* all, humau rights aw I liberty to all, a free ballot and a fai count" and, above all, "to do wha was in their power to rescue their ol< mother State from the hands of th despoiler." Afar arraigning th Democratic party of the State fo stifling the voice of the people by fore and fraud, for attempting to destroy tin efficiency of the judiciary and fo bringing shame and dishonor upon th< iair name- of Virginia, Major Laml closed with a most eloquent and ef fectivc peroration. Resolutions weri adopted providing for committees 01 credentials and permanent organiza tion. Everything passed off smoothly unti a resolution was offered proposing thi appointment of a committee of threi from each Congressional District, wit! Senator Mahoneas ex-cfficio Chairman to whom were to be referred all reso Intions or propositions submitted t< the Convention, and who were t< report a platform and a list of dele gates to the Chicago Convention The proposition authorizing this com mittee to report the list of delegates t< Chicago led to considerable discussioi It was endorsed by Congressman Johi A. Wise and others and was opposec by ex-Governor Lewis. Finally .i was agreed to by apparently quite j large majority of voices. Some dissatisfaction was expressec at Chairman Lamb's refusal to call ai ave and nay rote, when Congressman \fase said that, although in favor o the adoption of the resolutions, h< would have to appeal from the Chair man's decision against an aye an na] i vote 5n order to convince the minoriti 1 that the majority wanted to aeai iam\ j with them. Without taking action on this thi Convention soon afterwards took i recess till 8 p. m. The Convention was called to ordei at 8.40 p. m. A permanent organiza tion was effected as follows: Win Lamb, Norfolk, President: C. C Clark, Richmond, Secretary; Geo. F Gregg (colored)/* Petersburg, Assist ant Secretary, and Vice- President: from each Congressional District.

Laying the Comer Stone for the Thirc Time?-Interesting Ceremonies. Columbia, April 23.?The. ceremonial of laying the corner-stone of the Confederate monument took place this evening. Notwithstanding the facl that J his was actually th^ third time the corner-stone of this monument has been laid there was a large attendance. It will be remembered tbat the firs! site of the monument was on Arsenal Hill, that it was afterwards changed to the State House grounds, and that after the destruction of the statue by lightning eighteen months ago it was determined to give the mouument a better position, directly In front of the State House and at the northern entrance to the grounds. At this spot hundreds of persons, comprising many ladies and the best citizens of Columbia, were gathered this evening at 6.3C o'clock. The members of the .Richland Lodge, No. 39, A. F. M., in full regalia, headed by Mr. E. R. Arthur, acting Grand Master, reached the spot. The ladies of the Monumental Association took position about the base oi the monument, and after a fervent prayer by the Rev. Win. Martin of the Methodist church the corner-stone was duly laid according to the Masonic ceremonial, by acting G. M. Arthur, assisted by Deputy G. M. Leapbart. The *tone contained the articles usually deposited on such occasions. At. the conclusion of the ceremony a benediction was pronounced bv the Rev. Mr. Martin, and the simple but rimj7ressive servicop were closed. The site" ttlnch has at. last been chosen for thei monument is an admirable one, and will give the beiautiful column the bold and stately position it has so long needed. The Earthquake In England. XiONDOX, April 23.?At Colchester a child was killed and a woman's skull fractured by yesterday's earthquake. There were many narrow escapes. The fine old Parish'Church at LangenKon rvna HAmnJichprl thf? n 1 nor> looks as ii it had been bombarded. An invalid at Wavenhoe died from terror. The damage at Wavenhoe alone is four thousand pounds. At Caggc's Hall a number of school girls rushed panic-stricken into the street and many of them were crushed. The House of Bishops. New York, April 24.?The House of Bishops of the Protestant Episcopal Church obtaiued a quorum to-day and their deliberations began in Race Chapel. The bishops who arrived this morning were Watson, of East Carolina, Nibs, of New Hampshire and Smith of Kentucky. This made in all 31 bishops, 32 were necessary to coustitnte a quorum. Bishop Pot ter or .New York, being unable to leave his home, the 31 bishops went there in a body this morning, and thus secured a "quorum. The session of the house is entirely a private one. ?Colonel Ingersoll feels very sore over his defeat for delegate to the Republican convention from Washington, and it is reported that an effort will be made to seeijrc him a seat in some one of the State delegations. j AN EARTHQUAKE IN ENGLAND , j ' I SEVERAL EASTERN* COUNTIES SE> j VERELY SHOCKED. 5 I * ; Church Spires, Factory Chimneys and r ' | Other Lofty Structures Crash to the Earth j i In Rain -Great Consternation Throught ! out the Country. t j London*, April 22.?At 9.30 o'clock j this morning an earthquake shock of ; considerable force was felt in the eastI era counties of England. Localities j in Essex and Suffolk were the scenes i of the greatest disturbance. At Ipswich, the capital of Suffolk county, the shock was so severe that the walls of houses were perceptibly shaken, plates were rattled and bells rung, j The people have been thrown into I | such a state of consternation that busij hess is for the time suspended. The j shock was still more seveue at Colchester, in Essex. The concussion lasted ) half a minute. The first symptom 1 was a deep, rumbling sound, portcn5 tons and awe-inspiring. This was ^V\llr\rr?or1 ^^\r fhr? clmlrilior n*f ill! _ j IVliV) I VU V T vuv v* w?? j 2 the buildings. Church bells sounded 1 as though swayed by unseen hands, 1 tall chimney stacks of factories crashed 2 in ruins to the earth and other lofty 2 structures wefre destroyed. The spire 1 of one of the largest churches in the r city, 150 feet high, fell with an awful t crash to the ground. In one part of i the cilv a fire was caused by the shock, e It is impossible to estimate the amount c of darnnge, but it is known to be great, r In private houses the greatest cons fusion prevrilcd. Tables were overs turned, chairs swayed and then fell r sprawling upon the floor. China and s glassware in cupboards and sideboards 3 rattled together and were frequently - shattered, while pictures and other j ornaments upon the walls wgre loosi ened from their fastenings and fell to - the floor. People were terror-stricken. Men, women and children rushed 1 shrieking into the streets, where their j 2 agonized cries and pale faces made a 2 most impressive scene. At Ohelmsi ford, likewise in Essex, and only about i , tnirty miles irom juonaon, me shock - was also severe, and people were filled ) with terror and dismay. At South 3 End, a watering place near the mouth - of the Thanes, the earth trembled for . miles around, the windows of many - dwellings were broken, chimneys were ) dashed to i:he earth and crockery and i glassware were smashed. At Shoei buryness, a few miles beyond South 1 End, the shock was distinctly felt. It t was also perceptible at Bury St. Edi muuds, while at Mutton, ten miles east of Chelmsford* the town ball and 1 private -houses were swayed several 1 times. Tho;'wavje passed from South i to North. The Olobe says that the f shock was felt in; the Strand, London. 1 A business house, it asserts, was per ceptibly "rocked?so much so that the 7 employes were affected and rushed j into the streets. The duration of the r shock at Ipswich is estimated at three seconds. The earthquake has caused 2 a general feeling of alarm and insei curity throughout England. London, April-22.?Later advices r indicate clearly that Colchester was - the centre of the most serious disturb. ance by the earthquake. Tt is impossible a> vefc io determine the extent of . damage. In some streets traffic has - been forbidden for the present as 3 buildings have been so badly shattered that they are considered danger ons to life aud limb. The side walls - of houses near Colchester were shaken 5 out. Il> London there were numerous r indications of the proximity of the earthr qnake. Telegraph instruments were l shaken shaken and the shock was dis tinctly felt in Cheapside and Fleet ; street. The railway depot and a large I mansion were partially destroyed at 1 Ipswich. * I SUICIDE OF A COUNTESS. The Desperate Deed of a Fashionable Woman?Driven to Frenzy by Gambling. Paris, April 16.?Monaco has a ghastly sensation which promises to i make it a rival of Monte Carlo as a theatre for sensational suicides of mined gamesters. The heroine of j this latest tragedy was a lady of great . beauty, distinguished manners and ! aristocratic bearing, wfoo has for ; months occupied the Villa Clementina. | The mysterious stranger preserved a strict incognito, being known only as ! "the Countess" to the few acquain[ tances she tnade, and even to her ser| vants, of whom she engaged quite a . retinue after her arrival at Monaco. ' Rumor, however, credited her with . being the wife of a German nobleman ' who occupies a prominent post at the ' Imperial Court, and it was further [ whispered that her infatuation for the ' gaming table had led her to abandon ' her husband and take up her residence in Monaco. i "The Countess" was accompanied bv an infant daughter, asred about two ^ years, to whom she appeared much attached. ' She was a constant habitue at the Casino, where she played for tremendously high stakes aud latelx>with a steady run of ill-luck. She remained at the roulette table until a very late hour last night and lost several thousand francs. This morning the servants at her villa found "the Coun1 tess" lying in a pool of blood on the [ floor of her bed-chamber. Still clutched in her hand was a razor, with which she had cut her throat, causing [ almost instantaneous death. On the bed, which had not been occupied, was the body of her little child, strangled ! to death by its mother, as was indicated by the finger marks 011 the child's [ throat. " . The theory is that the Countess linH rnino/l KAveolf Kr t^occiam -f/M* iiuu A VAUAVVA Aiv/i MJ. _ iiv 1 XVI play, and^ being afraid to meet the reproaches of her hasbaud, had determined to erid 'thc disgrace by a double t crime. The officials at Monaco are [ making every effort to conceal the 1 facis, and have seized upon all the papers in the lady's residence, so that [ it is impossible "at present to ascer' tain her real name and history. 1 ?For several we^ks past, great ex! citement has existed in Mecklenburg ; and Iredel counties N. C., over a mad 1 dog epidemic. On "Wenesday a dog 1 of Tom McConnell, iu Moorcsville, went mad and bit McConnell and two negroes. McConnell had his finger bitten off, but choked the dog to death. He lefr at once for Hinkorv to test the ' w virtues of a madstone owned by a : citizen of that place. There is, talk of sending the two negroes to an insane asylum for treatment and safekeeping." ?Colonel R. G. Ingersoll, the everintesting, to a Chicago reporter on the political situation: "I never saw such a tideless, waveless, ebbless and flow| less pool. It is a pool mantled with .the frog-spit of indifference. There j are no great issues in which the people j feel personal interest. If there was j any danger to our interests?I will i take a little more of that milk?if there was any danger of free trade, any danger of tte~destruction of our industries, the interest, of course, would be great and intense and universal, but nobody believes that the Democracy can succeed in so changing the tariff." > \ > - V PERSONAL NOTES. ?
