Sharp by his friends of the St. Andrew Brotherhood of Grace Church, at the Exchange Hotel, and while the occasion was enjoyable by reason of the assemblage of mutual friends yet it was sad. in view of the fact that it marked the date of the Sepa¬ ration of the reverend gentleman with Iiis Heek and personal fiieuds. The.-p.i- eious parlors of the Exchange were brilliantly lighted and the floral decora¬ tions reflected great credit upon the ar¬ tistic taste of the geuial proprietor of the hotel, ferns, lilies, roses aud even tropical bloomage handsomely decorat¬ ed tbe reception rooms. After the handshaking and regretful words of parting bad been spoken by the visitors the banqueting company repaired to the handsomely decorated dining rooms of the hotel and the menu laid before the guest.-- \vn> such as would tempt the appetite of gormand or epicure. At the conclusion of the feast speeches were made by several members of the broth¬ erhood and of the vestry of the church, all of whom paid tribute to the worth of Mr. Sharp and expressed regret at the severance of his connection with them. Mr. Sharp responded most feelingly and reviewed to some extent his work in this city and especially with the brotherhood, fetters from several of the ministers of the city were read expressing their regret at their unavoid¬ able absence. There was a "feast of reason." (the "How of soui" was, at least presumably, omitted) and after genially discussing the events which occasioned the assemblage the gentle¬ men who had undertaken to pay a part¬ ing tribute to their friend and pastor, reluctantly dispersed. The occasion waa most' enjoyable in its details and only left behind the regrets which are experienced by the parting of friends. -rim- ¦+- West to Bed in a Lumber Yard. A man who bad indulged rather too much in convivial excesses repaired to a lumber yard late Thursday night and, supposing he was in the sacred con¬ fines of his owu room, dolled his cloth¬ ing and, mistaking a pile of lumber for his bed. stretched himself out aud was ? oblivious to things terrestial. e time during the n:ght the.chilly air fanning his bare limbs awoke him, and realizing his uncomfortable plight lie Degün a search for'his "unmentiona¬ bles," and was considerably mortified to find they had been stolen during his slumbers. Minus any lower garments he went to the house of a friend, who. n bearing hi* story, threw a pair of -.'.<¦ overalls" out of a. wiiidow to him, the 'unfortunate donned, h\\l finding the rjght fcqoe w-as minus he ffaa -till much mortified when he knew the bare ileäb of ouo **'- " KfHff WM 81111 *:;.osed.

The overalls were left a cell at the station, and last night ge Butler, colored, who had been arrested for disorderly conduct and bad made a counter charge of rob¬ bery against several parties, stole and uuuned the garment.

The Electric Railwat..Dr. Ab¬ bot, president of the electric railway, Mr. F. A. Reed, vice president, Mr. G. R. Phillips, Mr. D. W. Holden and oth¬ ers connected with the company, left here this morning for a trip over the road. They found that the work of cleariug away the earth from the re¬ cent slide at the Mt. Vernon cut had been about finished and that otherwise the railroad had been but slightly dam¬ aged by the late rains. Dr. Abbot is much pleased with affairs of the road and with the cordial feelings existing between the city and the company, which condition he hopes will continue. He says he will have the turnout laid at the corner of King ami Washington streets is soon as the authorities decide as to the way the work is to be done, and hopes soon to have Franklin street rcpaved and eventually to extend the road from Mt. Vernon to Woodlawn. Hereafter a car will leave here every evtniug for Mt. Vernon at 4 o'clock, and should a party of ten or more wish to make a trip overy tlic road between the hours of-1 and 5 a special car will be furnished for their accomodation if! application is made at the company's office. CAN Not re Siurhd..The mpiest of W. A. Smoot, president of the Columbia Fire Com'pauy, that the District ofj Columbia Commissioners loan this city a fire engine to allow the sending of the Columbia engine to take part in the parade and exhibition at Frederick, Md., was referred to Chief Parris, who reports that one of the engines is being repaired at Seneca Falls, X. Y., and unless it should be returned by June 1, when the parade takes place, be thinks best to decline loaning the only extra engine now on hand to Alexandria. The Columbia company will probably try and secure au engine from else¬ where,as they are very anxious to take theirs to Freuerick. Police Report..Last night was rainy until about 11 o'clock, when it be¬ came (dear. Eight prisoners were at the statiou house. Mayor Strauss this morning had but one case before him.that of a colored man named George Butler, who had been charged by several colored men and women with disorderly conduct.

A stray horse, which had been taken tip by Officer Jones, was returned to its owner.
