BOSTON, July 1.-The labor party bab decided on a conference at Germania Hall Assembly Booms, in New York, on Tuesday afternoon, July 30-Judge Davis and Gov. Parker having declined their nominations. Gov. Parker, in his letter of declination, says: "I have always beena member of the Democratic party. For nearly thirty-five years, I have shared its triumphs and defeats, adhering tu its faith, because I consider? ed its suooess essential to good govern? ment and to the elevation of the laboring classes. Having been pluaed in the im? portant public position as the nominee of that party, I am bound, in honor as well as by inclination, to stand by its or? ganization, and abide by the decision of its National Convention. To be the can? didate of one party, while supporting the nominees of another, although the two may agree substantially in principle, would be inconsistent, and I therefore respectfully decline the nomination ten? dered me by the Convention yen repre? sent." ANOTHER "SLEEPING BEAUTY."-A very remarkable case of lethargy occur? red at Winterport, Maine, a few days since. A daughter of Howse Mayo went into the yard on Tuesday, May 7, to bring in a little child, which had, unawares, got ont of the house. While Miss Mayo waa stooping over the child she became suddenly dizzy, and com? plained of it to her mother, who put her tc bod. The girl fell into a profound sleep almost immediately, and ber mother, upon trying to awaken her in season for supper, was surprised to fiud her efforts unavailing. After the family had eaten supper they again tried to awaken the girl, but btill without avail. The family becoming seriously alarmed, the neighbors were called in, but they could cob suggest any method by which the fuir sleeper could be aroused. A physician was also summoned, and he called in three other medical men, who, among other methods, sat the girl in a ohair and poured water from a few feet upon her head and shoulders, but even this failed, and the bleeping girl was put again to bed. Except when she was dis? turbed, her breathing was slow and re? gular, and her pulse healthy. At 2 o'clock, on the following Sunday after? noon, she turned over in her bed, and, awaking, called to ber mother, asking if supper wasn't ready yet, and further said that she was really hnngry. She then got up and ate a hearty meal, aud has been in excellent health ever since. The case excited great interest in the town, and the recovery of the sleeper was a theme of much wonderment. [Btvigor Commercial. THAT MULE AND THE FORTY ACRES. When Grant was candidate for Presi? dent, four years ago, his carpet-bag and scalawag partisans promised the pcfbr ne S?roes of the South who voted for him orty acres of land and a mule. This the deluded blacks took for their enfranchise? ment. Now Wendell Phillips threatens them that, in case of Greeley's eleotioc, they will loee the mules and land they didn't get. That is about as bad as the Radical stumper, who swore to the ne? groes that the land was all mapped out, and the mules selected, but the/d-d Democrats had stolen the surveys and owned all the railroads, so that the covet? ed long-eared equines couldn't be distri? buted, nor the lorty acres enjoyed for the present. [Lancaster {Pa.) Intelligencer. A gentleman once asked a little girl, an only child, how many sisters she had, and was told "three or four." Her mother asked Mary, when they were alone, what induced her to tell such an untruth. "Why, mamma," cried Mary, "I didn't want him to think you were so poor that you hadn't but one child. Wouldu't he have thought we were dreadful poor?" The Bev. Father James A. McEvoy, of Fitchburg, Mass., died recently at the age of 111 years. He was probubly the oldest clergyman in the country. He was a native of Meath County, Ire? land. He was born in 1761. The following ludicrous sentence is the result of a compositor's erroneous punctuation: "Ctesar entered upon his head, his helmet upon his feet, armed sandals upon bis brow, a cloud in his right hand, his faithful sword in his eye, an angry glare." It was Henry Wilson who, in the fall of 1853, said in a speech: The time had oome when the uniform of the State militia should no longer be disgraced by being seen on the back of a Catholic Irishman or an infidej Dutchman. An old farmer said of hts clergyman, whose sermon lacked point: "Ah, yos, he's a good man; but he will rake with the teeth upward." An Indianapolis man is acquiring wealth by buying up all the poor old blind horses and getting work out of them. Two Decatur County, Ga., negroes engaged in a quarrel recently.

One was pleased to order a plate of baked beans. When he came to settle, he asked the price, and was informed that forty cents would be satisfactory. The runner was astonished and exclaimed: "Isn't that b--1 of a price for beans?" The man of grub got mad, and said that was the price, and must be paid. The runner still uttered the same pions exclamation ot astonishment several times and paid the scot. On going out of the door ht turned and yelled it again, but the beau man waa silent.

The Board of Education building, in Elm street, yesterday had some attrac? tions for the aspirants to honor suob as Farragut and Nelson won in shrouds and smoke. There were twenty-six of them, all boys, some of them plainly dressed, some attired in hue raiment and bearing all the murks of gentle rearing, and one shambling fellow, whose collar? less shirt, sieve-like shoes, coarse, dirty clothes and unkempt bair seemed to in? dicate that he had no right to bo there; that hts proper sphere of life would be acting the part of a wharf rat or market bummer. He spoke to nobody and no? body spoke to bim, yet there was in that face the look of reliance and resig? nation. The boys were waiting for the exami? nation of applicants for the cadetship ic the Annapolis Naval Academy, in the gift of Colonel W. B. Roberts, of the Fifth Congressional District. At 10, the boys filed into the room. Colonel Bo berts came smiling and ?olly as usual Marshal Tooker came soon after, witb Judge Shandley, Michael J. Kelly, Dr, Harrington, W. F. McNamara and Jamel Hayes, all of whom, with the exoeptiot of Shandley, ?re members of the com mitten to make the award. Several o the Christian Brothers were present, t< encourage their boys, one of whom the; hoped would carry off the honors fron the public Behool. Mr. Duffio, of Qram mar School No. 29, of the first ward, wa also present, to back and bet if neoessar; on Ins favorite, the rugged boy above re ferred to. Tooker took a high seat ii the educational synagogue, and th lesser committeemon clustered abou bim. They looked grave. Then ther Wore Superintendent Kiddle and hi assistant, Mr. Harrison, who conducto the mental examination, and Dre. Ski and B. J. O'Sullivan, who felt the littl fellows to Bee that they were sound i wind and limb. AU but eight wer ruled out of the race, either on aocour of beiug under the age of fourteen c for some physical disqualification. The: names being called, they filed within tb railing, aud took their seats. Last I enter was O'Keefe, the "ragged buffer, as he was dubbed by a spectator withot the building, and hi* appearance attrac ed much notice, but little or uo con ment. The examination lasted from about ] A. M. uutil nearly 3 P. M.; but befo it was half through everybody was iut rested und amazed at the collarle O'Keefe, who stood by the desk wit open mouthy distended nostril, spurklii gruy eyes, aud head thrown forward catch the questions put by Mr. Hurriso While at rest iu that uttitude he remin ed the beholder of a sprightly dog cate ing Hies. This is perhaps au uugen rous comparison, but it is nevertheless homely one. Without hesitation answered nearly every question quickl his eye still set upon the propound* then his mouth would close un instai ouly to open for the next qnestic There was smiling all around the roo aud the whisper passed, "That b wins; seo if he don't." And he d He evidently saw that the eyes of t nation-i. e., that fraction represent by Tooker, Hayes, McNamara, 1 Harrington and Kelly-were upon hi and, to use his language after, he "{ in his best licks." The committee, tiring, remained ont an hour, and turning, Joseph Tooker arose with gr dignity, und, after shaking his bea proclaimed that John O'Keefe had w the go:tl; end the committee would so port to Colonel Roberts. It was a s disappointment to the other boys, v were well dressed and had beauti white skins, to see the honors borne by that frizzly-headed fellow, who i destly took tho bauds of his teaet Mr. Duffie, aud others who rushed i ward to congratulate him. The yoi admiral in embryo did not want to the e'ilect of his triumph upon the feated, but suddenly disappeared bel the reporter could seize his hat and c to follow. From neighbors of tho young ct the reporter learned that young O'Ki has been attending school pretty re lurly since he was eight years old, asi ing to support his parente and tl sisters by selling papers in tho more and evening, and running errands al Washington Market and thu piers, has some reputation as a "wharf r and many stories aro told of Joh O'Keefe ?living from tho yard urtu vessels into the river, swimming ni a vessel's bottom and makiug nude corsions to upper air iu the riggiu merchautmeut. lu personal appuuri be is one who can elbow bis way iu world. He has a bright, sparkling j eye; black hair that does not look u hud ever made the acquaintance < comb; muscular limbs, a moderate-s head und an aqualiue nose His gu a shambling, unguinly one, and wht the street selling papers he has all appearance of u saucy, over-grown n boy, who feels that, no matter how world wags, he is 6uro to "be gay happy still." lu front of tho office of au eve newspaper the reporter found the u boy-admiral wholesaling to other t and taking him in, he escorted hit the Herald office, with a view of versing with him. "Look here, Admiral," said thi porter, "what did you run away ft quickly utter the examination?" "Becauso I didu't want to stay have them fellers, with white papei lars, stare ut me. I jist let out for h you see." "How long have you boen ut sein "Since I was eight years old. I Rf the mornin'Bellin pupers, go to so then swim, dive and duck under pit North River.

Drive on your waj "Do the police not arrest yoi swimming down there?" "No, they can't catch ns. We just' gets in auder the wharf, pulls off our clothes and breaks oat. When the peeler comes we beat back on the home? stretch, and lay to under the pier till he leaves. He can't fetch ns there." "How often do yon swim?" "I cleans meself in the salt water three times a day; don't use soap, fur, ye see, salt water'n soap don't 'gree. Can I swim at 'Napolis?" "Certainly; thot's part of the institu? tion." "Then I'm till hookey, old boy." "Do you make much money welling popers?" "I makes a li vin', but that's all. I don't let my mother know it, 'eau she'd knock the liver out of me." "Why?" " 'Cause she thinks I'm too big to ped? dle papers. I needn't work. My father, Timothy O'Keefe, earnB $16 per week, and my sister, yoanger'n me, earnB S3, in Uncle Dennis O'Keefo's tobacco fac? tory. I can get $4 per week there if I'd a mind to work after school hours. He's pretty well ofT, and owns two houses in Brooklyn." What do the boys in your class in the First Ward think of your look?" "There are some 'quills' iu my class, but they wouldn't say nothin'. They kaows me. If they did give me any of their lip, I'd put a bead on 'em." "What do you mean by a .quill?"* "They are them nobby fellows, ye! know, what dresses ap good and look?) down npon a poor boy." "Well, Admiral, when you get down there to Annapolis, you will find that the boys will haze you; make yon do their work: act as a drudge. Don't sub? mit to it, but be respectful to your supe? riors; and in your intercourse with your messmates carry jost as high a head as any of them. Do you support Qreeley or Girant?" "Greeley every time, me boy, I've done with Grant." "Why?" "'Cause he's got too many beats 'round him. I s'pose down there, though, all are for Grant? I'll tell 'em I'm for Greeley." "Admiral, you spoke of putting heads on your classmates. Are you a fighter?" "I kin box pretty well. I have bad in my time some tights, and none of 'em got the better of me." The impression left upon the mind of tho reporter is, that the new candidate for ad mission from the Fifth Congres? sional District, "rough diamond" though he be, will prove himself to be a worthy representativo of the District, and one that the genial Representative of the Distiict in time will be proud of. Aboy who had been a waif upon the streets and can carry ofTsuoh honors as O'Keefe I did yesterday, eau do even more toward making himself a respectable member of society. The only drawback he has to i encounter is poverty, but Principal Duffie, of Grammar School 29, will start a subscription to fit him out for his new life at Annapolis. {New York Herald, 28th ult. The fast lino from Cincinnati to Wash? ington that runs through regular as a clock in twenty-two hours, has a way of "letting go all holts" upoo down grades that is rather striking than otherwise. An unexpected jump of two inches to the right or left would send one by a fast ! line to another, and let us hope a better, world, for while a maintain towera up cu ono side a dreadful, yawn iug abyss starla from the edge ut the track on the other. And these grades wind down in the most graceful manner. We stepped upon the platform of the car while whirling down and round one of these grades, to get a better view of the magnificent scenery, when the brakesman bawled in our ear: "Better get off the platform." "Why?" we asked. "Platforms are dangersome." We thought of the many we had seen made in our time. These were political ! platforms, und like good advice, always asked for, always given, and never fol? lowed, they were not "dangersome." "What's the matter now?" we bawled at our brakesman. "A goin* down/these heavy grades,"] hu responded, "it's bard, work for the locomotive to keep ahead1 sometimes, tho thing is just run over." We retired to our seat in the car with aa idea. It is not often that one gets an iden, and we cherished this. It struck us that sometimes the train did run down the locomotive. We saw it done in the Cincinnati Convention, when the people took the management from the hands of the organizers, and it looks as if it would be done at Baltimore. It could not be attempted at Philadelphia, because it wus there on au up grade. It took all sorts of whistling, bell ringing aud blowing to keep up even the ap? pearance of motion. As we sat cogitating this beautiful illustration, a bird known to the vulgar us a fly-up-tJie-creek, made in one of nature's severest fits of economy, with one digestive organ running throngh it, rose from a gorge near by and flew Euralie! to the train for some distance, laving no tail, it balanced its long neck with its longer legs, and gazed with won? dering lack-lustre eyes upon the train as it thundered along.
