DISCHARGE OF CoMMlssARY EMPLOYEES

The statement which appeared in some OF
the morning papers that orders have been is
sued to discharge all the employees and break
up the Office of the Commissary of Subsistence
in Alexandra, under the charge of Major
Clark, has but 4 partial foundation in fact.
The report arose, II is supposed, from an order
issued with view to the reduction of the ex-
penses OF the Commissary Department, and
which directs the discharge of all the EN-.
ployees of the Department on the 18th instant
Such number rs may be necessary for the
transaction of business will then be EMPLOYED
by the approval of Colonel Bell, and an the

The OFFICIAL REPoRTRRs ouas,iop has
arisen in the House OF Represeu tatiyes in refer
ence to the Corps Of Official Reporters, which
attracts much interest and comment amongst
the members. One of the reporters Of ,ha Uonss
has received notice from the publishers o. the
Globe that they have dropped his mama from
the roll OF official reporters. MANY Of the
prominent members who have been c0nsn,,aS
on the subject take the ground that it il An ir,
proper interference with the business OF ths
House, insomuch as the official capacity of the
reporters has always been recognized in va
rious ways, including direct appropriations i'm
payment of their services. Ex-Speazer Banks
who is most familiar with the relations which
the reporters bear to the House, takes that
ground. 1t is proposed. in order to settle the
question, TO adopt a resolution recognizing the
reporters as official employees, and providing
for their payment directly by the House. This
course will probably be taken. Its effect will
be not TO injure the pecuniary interests OF the
Gl0be, but to secure the present efficient corps
of reporters in their position.

ACCIDENT ON THE SOUTH SIDE RAILROAD
The alexandria Gazette states that an accident
occurred on the South Side Railroad on Thurs
day, by which thirty persons were instantly
killed and about fifty wounded-some very
seriously. The accident was caused by the
giving way of a trestle bridge over the James
river, six miles from Lynchburg, precipitating
the passenger train into the river, causing a
complete smash up OF the train, and the killing
and manghng the passengers. doubt is
thrown on this report from the fact that no
intelligence of the accident has been received
by telegraph.-EDl
