Chicago, July 6th. — The morning journals de nominate the Katiunal Anti-Monopoly Convention a fiasco. With nearly three hundred delegates, the Convention dwindled down to about fifty at the close. Denis Kearney claims to have evidence that the afftir was engineered largely by what he terms three Washington lobbyists, and that he will show up their true character at the meeting next Sunday, when he ill answer the editorial in tbe Times, which combats his views on the rai'roid question. He contends in the matter of freight charges that » bile collectively they are large, still, when taken in the case of the individual purchaser of a suit of clothes, as an illustration, they are merely nominal. Mr. Kearney says he goes to New York city from here, where he will address the workingmen in Cooper Institute, and then go to Ohio. lie has en gagements which will fill three months' time. A Krs.ni ir '• Knock- and »raa <>u(" Fight. Chicaoo, July 6th. — A Baltimore, Md., spec'al gives an account of a lively battle at Cross Keys, a notorious sporting place ne»r the city. The trouble grew out of . cock fight, and before the sport ended a number of the sportsmen presented as pitiable an appearance as their fame birds. For a long time the owners of the birds had been stubborn rival* for the hi. nor of the pit, and each was backed by niauy frienls The owners were Perry Knight ana a prominent local politician. Knight won the main, a.d then six scrub matches were fought. The ex citement, aided by beer and the heat, was running high, when a quarrel was started between a man from the Eighth Ward and a resident of Cross Keys, about a sta^e, the holder of which had riri oft. Blows were exchanged, and in an instant there was heavy fighting all along tbe line. The crowd moved in front of the tavern and set to work in earnest. For nearly an hour they struck and shot at each other People residing in vhe neighborhood were much alarmed, and closed their houses. There was a picnic in progress bait a mile below. The ladies and children who were taking a walk along the road ran panic stricken. When the firing began those of the crowd at the tavern who had vehicles rattled away for town. In the row knive 1 , billie", stones and pistols were used indUcrinuiauly. Before the fi.;tjl was over the road was lined with men with torn clothing, cut heads and bUck eyes. It is im possible to get at the exact number of the wounded, some were taken away in carriages, many shot and badly wounded, and at least twelve others banged on the head and in the eyes. The must of those badly hurt were from the city, and all from the Eighth Ward— the righting Democratic ward of Baltimore, where they roll up huge majorities at elections. Sfltllns for the MiKdrM* of a Babe. Nkw Ye rk, July 6th.— The Tribune gives the se quel of the Jessie Maillard ihrsecution by young Kvy, by whom she wax betrayed. Those who had beeu dealing with Levy- Brothers were so incensed at young Levy's actions that they began to discon tinue their trade. In self-defense, a largefsum of money was paid to Miss Maillard, and a smaller sum to her counsel, Colonel Spencer. Th i girl was paid Beveral thousand dollars, all of which she da - po-uted in the savings banks. Having taken this proper step, the Levy Brothers took a more import ant one by compelling the cause of all their trouble to leave the firm They then issued a circular stat ing these farts, which they sent to their former cus tomers, with tbe effect of causing many of them to return. Where j oung Levy is now is uot stated, but Miss Maill.ird and her child are welL It ts hill 2« un der-tood that Colonel Spencer did not take one cent of the money given to tbe girl. Tile Ucmitnd for Matches. Kbw York, July 6th.— The Tribune says: For several days the down-town street* have been alive with cries of " Matches, penny a box !" Within the past three days 85,000 gross of matches of all sizes and shapes have been sold in this city by agent* of the factories. The cause of the large sale is that manufacturer* are on longer obliged to pay a tax on their goods Last Monday the price of ordinary lurifer matches fell from 31 50 a gross to 60 cents, but the demand for them was so great that the manufacturers raised the price to 75c, and even then found that they were in danger of running short of the demand. All kinds depreciated 200 per cent, in price, and there is no probability tliat wholesale prices for them will rise. The Conference with Chief Moat*.

Bpeaking Of tbe [wrjoiial Jattr :i'.tiviMit-SH of Mrs. Langtry and her "fag," asGehhardt is termed, says : The Lily is not out of sight of New York, although she may have drupped out of mind. With other people she rides down to the rnc-s of the Coney I-land Jockey Clab atop of Fre Jdie Gtbhardt's four. in-hand coach. She looks more nearly beautiful, as compared with women about her, than when seen on the stage, for her wondrously smooth ekin and delicate complex ion suffers nothing from the irlare of the midday sunlight. A man with a back like a turtle and a fate like a boiled lobster joined her in her box dur ing Freddie's absence, and chatted with her. He proved to be a theatrical manager. When Freddie returned she showed no disposition to dismiss the fat man in a hurry. He got so jeatoußly angry that his state of mind was plainly visible in his face. Mrs. Laugtry smiled covertly, and seemed to enjoy bis discomfiture, but the Liiy soon h d her own turn at anger. A ter the races were over Frt Jdie took her to his coa-jh, and o:i the w»y had to pass cow by a crowd in tin field. The courle were recognized, and they hvl immedUte good reason to realize it. Such hooting, yelling at;d whittling, mingled with disrespectful utterances, they have never encountered in all their varied pub lic experience together. The Lily had been straight •on her stalk under the scrutiny of the thousands of e>u4 while in the stand, though many of them lok-!d Straight at her through field glasses ; but she wiltsd under tbij treatment, clung to Freddie's arm and ..*»TeLjd away. ■ <\. the l^vnnxvlllc Fire. Ev»>-evm.g (Minn.), July 6th.— Joss is found much greater lhau at first estimated. The fire broke oat yesterday at 11 a. m. In the mis of the B»nk of Evansnlle, a frame structure of two sto ries. In all twenty-«ix buildings were burned, caus ing a loss of $150,C00. The Postoffioe buildings were burned, but the mails were saved. Tlie offl ci*U of the Manitoba Railroad ran a freight engine down from Alt indria, and with the assistance of th;ir engine the lumber yard and elevatois were saved.

VISITS OF THE DEAD. In IS7I I was at Naples, when an Ital ian corvette, the Amirale Caracoiolo, was launched at Castellamare. The vessel was christened by the Countess Teresa I'j.rac ciolo, the daughter of the chief of the elder branch of the Caracciolo. I was staying at Naples as the guest of the young lady's father, and 1 heard from him a very remarkable story connected with the death of the unfortunate officer in honor of whose memory the vessel was named. The cir cumatances which led to the execution of Prince Francesco Ciracciolo in 1795) are well-known. I shall merely state, there fore, that he was condemned by a court martial composed of Sicilian officers to be hanged at the yard-arm of the Hag-ship for bearing arms against his lawful sovereign. When the othcial comrrunication of the rinding and sentence of the Court was brought to the I'rince, he was explaining the names and uses of the various parts of the rigging to some young Neopolitan no blemen who happened to be on board the ship. A glance at the letter was sufficient to show him its contents. He showed no sign of emotion, but requested the officer whd brought the dispatca to wait for a few minutes while he tinisbed hia explanations. This being done, he retired to his cabin ; and after a vain attempt to get the sen tence changed to a more honorable manner of death, he resigned himself to his fate, which he met with great fortitude. Some days after the «vent the King, who had been for an afternoon's cruiae on a Sicilian ahip-of-war outside the bay, was returning to Naples in the evening. It waa a moon light night, and the sea was perfectly calm. There was, indeed, so little wind that it was difficult to steer tbe vessel. The King was sitting in the balcony of the stern cabin, watching the sea, when sud denly he became aware that something was following the ship. As the object came nearer it was easy to distinguish that it w.ib the body of a man in an upright atti tude, as if treading water ; and very soon the King was able to recognize the feat urts of Admiral Caracciolo. His eyes were open and seemed to be fixed on the King, and, except for its ghastly pallor, the face was unchanged. The explanation was sim ple. At er being submerged for some days the body had become so buoyant that the weights attached to the feet were not suffi cient heavy to keep it under water ; but they retained it in an upright position, and it was drawn along by the current created by the movement of the ship. It is easy to imagine the horror cf Ferdinand at what he believed to be an apparition from an other world. When at length it waa ex plained to him what had happened, he gave orders that a boat should be lowered and that the corpse should be brought on board and takeu to Napleß for Christian burial. But the superstitious Sicilians dared not obey the royal command, an tbe ship, drawing in its wake the upwright body of the Admiral, sailed slowly into the Bay of Naples. Here a boat's crew was obtained from au English man-of-war, who took the Admiral's body ashore, where it was deposited in his own palace, and at length received the last rites of the church. [Notes and (Queries. THE FIRST DISCOVERES OF AMERICA. It ia now gravea on the tablet of history ' that though Columbas ww the first discov erer of oar Western Continent, from which the practical beuetitß of occupation and settlements were received, he was not the first European to plant footsteps ou its coil, that having been accomplished further beyond hia time than the present is re moved from his great discovery. Erik, a bold Norseman, colonized Greenland from Iceland, and Lief, his bolder son, and other Greenland Norse, discovered America, probably as far south aa Massachusetts, or even the Chesapeake, certainly as far as Labrador and the Island of Newfoundland. No results, however, followed from these discoveries, and the hardy Norsemen seemed content to live in desolate Green land, although we might add that many physical appearances and more detioite ac counts all seem to show that Greenland, about a. d. 1000 — around which these events were clustered — -was a much warmer and more temperate country than it now is. How long the Greenland Norse existed we know not exactly. They finally broke off communication with mother Iceland, lived and intermarried among the Skr;e lings, as they called the Esquimaux, but were extinct in 1679 and 1581, when the first expeditions were dispatched from Denmark for the rediscovery of Greenland and its ancient colonizers, if they still ex isted, and the resumption of the trade with its inhabitants. The last definitely known of the Greenland Norse is that they paid their tribute to the Crusades in the shape of walrus tusks, delivered at Bergen, in 1327, and their weight is noted on a re ceipt, which is still in existence. Only eight years before Culumbas dis covered America, according to an old his torical notice reputed to have been found, there still lived forty men in Bergen who were acquainted with the Greenland naviga tion, and used annually to bring home pre cious cargoes from that country. On return ing in that year, they were asked by certain German merchants who stayed at Bergen to sell some of their wares, but they declined to let them have any of them. The Ger mans then took revenge by murdering them, in an assault committed during a banquet to which they had invited them. From this time, it is said, it became impos sible to sail for Greenland, because no one knew the road to ita shores. This is the last we know definitely of the Norse Green landers, the receipt for the Crusade tax at Bergen being the last we 'know definitely. [Lieutenant Schwatka.
