DEATH OF A VETERAN OFFICER OF THE
U. S. ARMY-Lt. Col. Samuel Miller, of
the U. S. Marine Corps, died in Philadel-
phia on Sunday, aged 81 years. The de-
ceased entered the service in 1903, and
greatly distinguished himself in the war of
1872, and also in the Florida war In 1914
he was placed in command of moving bat
terry, and, at St. Leonard's Creek, Nd :,
was for time enabled, with his limited
force, to impede the advance of the British
upon our Capital. He was seen foremost
among the chosen few who stood and fell on
the disastrous field of Bladensburg, where,
in command of the marines, with the gallant
Barney, he bore the brunt of an attack from
the entire British line, and, though despe-
rately wounded, he still maintained his fire
upon the advancing columns. Upon the
Canadian frontier also he acted noble part.
When asked by his commander whether he
could take certain battery posted on an
elevation, which was cutting the American
forces to pieces, he modestly replied, Il
will try" He did try, and was successful,
md turned its fire upon the enemy. The
disease to which he has at last fallen vic
tim he contracted during the Florida war
For several years past he has been station
ed at the Philadelphia Navy Yard.

Although the season is pretty well advan-
ced, the weather still continues cold, bleak
and boistcrous. If the general average Of
rough and pleasant weather, during the year.
is nearly the same, the prospeFis pretty fair
for succession of pleasant days during the
remainder Of the spring months.
Business, which has been much depressed
in this city, aII winter, is beginning TO revive,
but there are still many branches where there
is but little improvement. Merchants are
coming in pretty rapidly, and wholesale deal
ers, generally, are doing a fair business. The
money market is again considered easy, and
good paper can be negotiated on reasonable
terms.
The fnancecrs and money dealers, are
keeping an eye on the movements OF the leg
islature, in regard TO the numerous bank bills
now before that body The Governors veto
of the Pottstown Bank bill has caused good
deal of Guttering and anxiety for the fate oil
the numerous bills now before the Legislature.
The Governor says he will sanction no bill
for new bank, unless where it is actually
necessary. That is the grand difficulty. 1t
will be no easy matter to draw the line o'
discrimination, and say where bank is. or is
not necessary. The Governor meant if ne
cessity, be the judge, and assume the respon-
sibility, matter that will be neither pleasant
or popular. The plea of necessity will no

such necessity exists.
Another bill, perhaps, more important in
its bearing and operations, now before the
legislature. is the bill to abolish Tavern licen'
ses. This bill has already passed the House
aud few days since passed second reading
in the Senate, by vote Of Is TO 9. This bill
is not quite as stringent US the Maine liquoi
law, but is as near an approach to 1t as car
he. The bill, as it came from the House. re

cONGR EssIONAL MORALITY.

We we're infinitely amused three or four
weeks ago by a practical joke in Washington
City upon number of the nice men OF Con-
gress. II was too good TO be left unpublish-
ed. f-a--rsf
A couple Of merry fellows one of them
distinguished member of Congress from q
Southern State, and the other adistinguished
ex-editor from Kentucky, concocted letter
purporting to be addressed by a young lady
TO very fine-looking gentleman. II was got
up in frst-rate style. The pretended young
lady set forth therein that she has had sever
al times seen the gentleman she was address
ing, that she was captivated by his fine face
and manly form, that her heart was deeply
touched by all she saw and heard of him, that
she must make his acquaintance before his
departure from the city, that hoped and pray
ed he would forgive her seeming boldness as
it was the first inprudent act Of her life that
she had always moved and was still moving
in the highest circle Of the Capital, that she
would be upon certain square Of q certain
street at precisely IL o'clock on the following
day in dress which she described with great
particularity, and that she hoped and trusted
he would meet her and thus afford her an OPP
portunity Of brief personal intercourse
with the idol of her heart. The two wags
had between thirty and forty copies Of this
written by female friend Of theirs and they
sent these copies to between thirty and forty
members OF Congress, selecting those ofcourse
who were known TO entertain very exalted
opinion OF their own personal fascinations.
Everything being thus arranged, the two
jokers called upon US and another young gen.
tleman, explained what they had done, and
invited us to get into their carriage, ride with
them TO the point Of designation and see the
sights. We unhesitatingly consented and
we saw sights sure enough. Riding upon the
designated square, we bcheld the whole of
the thirty or forty members. Northern men
and Southern men. Wings, Democrats, and
Know-Nothings, walking to and fro, all gaz-
! ing earnestly in every direction and at every
female figure 10 discover the object of their
anxious search
We concluded, tlrat. il few more copies Of
the letter had been sent 20 members of the
| House of Representatives, the House would
have had 10 adjourn for the want Of quo
