III The New York Times makes
some comments upon Senator James, Of
this State, and the small speech which
he read at n locoioco caucus in this
town just previous to our late election.
1t thus remarks in regard to what Gen.
james said about The importance Of
Rhode Island being n locoioco State, if
we expected any Government patron
age, and especially Navy Yard at this
place -
This is putting up Il State at auction
with degree OF coolness seldom match

naval d pot, the State must vote Tor the
Democratic ticket. Rhode Island now
knows the price she must pay for "thc
favor" OF Government. 1t n.ly remains
10 be seen whether she will ratily the
bargain which her broker has made.
Rhode Island is indeed small State;
but it is not small enough To be properly
represented by Senator james.
The General Assembly performed Il
very small business in elccting Charles
L. James to the U. S. Senate he is an
exceedingly ordinary man, and does not
possess the slightest qualifications for
the post which he occupies. Our Wing

tensions in regard to the future political

The Washington Greys celebrated
their twenty-ninth anniversary yester-
day After parading through some of
the principal streets, they marched up
Chestnut street about o'clock, and
proceeded 10 The Grard House, where
they were entertained 10 collation.
Alter the company had partaken TO suf-
ficlency oi'the choice articles OH the ia
Bile, Gov. Jones addressed them in
very neat, concise and appropriate
speech, to which the company respond
ed in nine hearty cheers for Gov. Jones.
The Company is commanded by Cap
tain Elmaker, n gentleman in every
sense Of The word. and one who is uni-
versally esteemed by all who know him;
of such as he is composed The Washing
ton Greys Of Philadelphia. A finer set
of well disciplined men never turned
ont, even in New England which is fam
ed for lis military spirit. The compa-
ny gave magnificent ball last evening,
al the Musical Fund Hall which was
attended by over 500 At o'clock, the
cXhlIeratlng strains OF Hcck's Band
swelled through the Hall, and all was
the poetry ofmotion. The dancing went
gaiIy on until 10 o'clock, when it was
announced that Gen. Scott had arrived
and every one was anxious TO welcome
the distinguished guest. Mr.. Chad
wick the gcntlemanly clerk of the Gil
rard House, escorted Gen. Scott INTO the
Hall and introduced him 10 Capt. ELL
maker, after which the hero received
tie personal congratulations ol his many
friends Among The number of distin.
gul,hed men present, noticed Cen

at their 29'h anniversary. and trust
that they, with their popular and eff

few more of the same sort.
General SCOTT left here for Washing
ton, this morning. Kossu,h passed
through here yesterday, but no demon
