tided to postiione the case till next session.
Mr. Smalley returned to the charge in a letter dated
April 5. He states that the scandal circulated some
years ago in Madrid, and then bushel, has now be-
come public. Thinking Mr. Hale would go at the
end of his term, the desire was to let him leave un-
stained by this charge, but his demand Tor another
term has exhausted even Spanish patience. I%!r.
Smalley, after giving the official statements sub-
stantiating the charge of introducing contraband
goods under his diplomatic franchise, says he knew
the story for some time, and he trusted the dis-
grace which affects the country of which Mr. Hale
is the representative might have been spared, but
the action of the Cortes has made seeresy impos-
sible. Now he hopes, and so do I, that Mr. Hale will
boldly meet and refute these charges. A card has
been published in the Tribune from Mr. II de, dated
Madrid, March 31, wherein he answers Mr. Smal-
ley's assertion that he has no sympathy with the
revolution. This he denies, and, as foll iws, en-
deavours to fix an o hunt on the correspondent, but
there is not a word about using his diplomatic posi-
tion to cover smuggling transactions. In fact, Mr.
Hale could not then have answered a charge at that
time,:n3t at least publicly made :

" Perhaps I ought to feel gratified that the ingenious
malignity of the author of this false and outrageous charge
has nothing to allege against my integrity, or, indeed, any
part of my official conduct, save that my faculties a:•0
much impaired, and 1 am openly hostile to the Republican
movement. If it be evidence of impaired faculties that I
did not detect in an individual whom I admitted as a guest
in my family and at my table a disguised foe, who listened
to the unrestraino 1 conversation of the family circle to
which he was admitted for the time as a member, to be
retailed afterward in the public press, for the purpose of
injuring him of whose hospitality he was partaking, I
plead guilty to the charge."

General Burbridge was arrested on Mond ty, and
was discharged on Tuesday owing to an informality
in the proceedings. The grand. jury found a bill
against him for receiving bribes from distilleries en-
gaged in defrauding the Government. He was
arrested on the warrant of .Judge Wylie by deputy-
marsh al Phillips. He was ranning againstrile for the
mission to Brazil, and he says that the charge and
arrest were the conspiracy of his enemies to defeat
his office-seeking. When the Dyer Court of In-
quiry will end no one knows. It sits from:10ti11
5 o'clock daily. The evidence is not worth record-
ing, and no one can guess what the upshot will be,
but as all are sick of it, it is likely to end soon. A
son of Frederick Douglass has been appointed clerk in
the Third. Auditor's office, as well as another coloured
gentleman named 0. Hare. Senator Sprague, who
has been keeping the pot boiling, and gathering
heaps of that coal to be piled on his head on his return
to Rhode Island was, with difficulty, check-mated
in his intention to deliver another of his series of
speeches on Wednesday. His enemies in Rhode
Island, taking advantage of his absence, are prepar-
ing for him a warm reception, bnt I have great con-
fidence in the Senator, who is not only a bold man,
but one mighty in the dollar line, with lots of men
in armour behind him, and I feel inclined to back
that colossus of Rhode Island against his foes. A
party has left Washington on an extended Southern
tour through Virginia, the Carolinas, Georgia, Ala-
bama, and Inuisiana. Their object is to ascertain
the social, political, and commercial condition of
these States by a personal inspection. For the week
ending last Monday there were registered at the
Patent Office 441 applications for patents, and 01
caveats filled. There were 303 patents ordered to
issue on the 27th instant, which is a larger number
than has ever before been issued by the office in one
week Five more velocipedes were patented—New
York City furnishing two models ; New Bedford
and Hyde Park, Massachusetts, and Bridgeport,
Connecticut, each one. Three Englishmen have
also obtained patents for valuable inventions. gr.
James M. Davis, who was private secretary to three
successive Secretaries of the Treasury, Chase, Fes-
senden, and M'Culloch, is among the many clerks
discharged. At the Board of Registry for the First
Ward, several women appeared to present a paper
demanding the insertion of their names on the list
of qualified voters then in preparation. They were
qualified in every way but sex, which they believed
the law did not consider a barrier, but if so,
they solemnly protested. It was received by the
Board, due consideration being promised. As Mr.
Dana has declined the appointment, Mr. M‘ltarath
holds as Appraiser of Merchandise in New York,
that gentleman will continue in that office, the
appointment not requiring the action of the.6o-
- The Quartermaster's-General's office will b 3
removed from the Corcoran Art Building to that
lately vacated by the Internal Revenue Depart-
ment.

President J. W. Garrett made an interesting
statement on the 14th of April to the shareholders of the
Baltimore and Ohio Railroad. He announced the succasS
of tha steam line placed between Southampton and Bald'
more by the North German Lloyd Company, who hese
increased their fleet, and find ample employment for the
additional vessels, and he believes that they will soon
employ eight first-class steamers between Baltimore and
Bremen. More than twice the cargo that would fill one
steamer was awaiting the arrival of the next vessel. We
believe that the shares of the North German Lloyd are
largely held by the Baltimore and Ohio Railrcad Company''
and therefore the interest of that line is powerful in the
capital of Maryland.

Mrs. Dolly Chandler and 194 other women haV°
sent. a remonstranc3 to the Massachusetts Legislature
against, woman suffrage. They claim that it would dimi-
nish the purity, the dignity, and the moral influence of
women, and bring into the family circle a dangerous eie"
went of discord, without securing additional strengtbf
efficiency, or wisdom to the Government of the nation,
and ask to bo let alone in the condition allotted to woman
by nature, by custom, and by religion.
