until one, receives and pays official

In the afternoon the Emperor visits
the hospitals and transacts an end

France possesses more than 100
public libraries, open freely to all

son, rank or country; Austria and
Prussia, together, have nearly ninety;
Bavaria, seventeen; Belgium, four

have fair share. Until the passage
of n Ewart's Act, in 1850, for en-

of being without single strictly free

GooD JoKE.-A certain gentleman
of this city, who shall be nameless,
was to have been married on Friday
night. The bride was blushingly ex-

had arrived. Imagine the feelings of
all concerned when it was announced
that the candidate for connubial bliss
was "hung" on a jury. And there
he staid that night.

CONGRESS sAND THE WIFE OF PRESIDENT LIN
coIN.-we are astonished that the republican
press has nothing to say in relation to the
shameful manner in which Congress is acting
in regard to the donation to the wife aad
family Of the ma,tyred President of this repub-
lie. Not only has Congress cut down the
amount proposed from one hundred thousand
to twenty-five thousand dollars, but it actually
seems to hesitate to give even that sum. We
consider this disgrace to the American
people. The republican press not Only dis
honors the memory Of the dead President by
its silence, but II subjects Mrs. Lincoln to the
dastardly attacks Of such journals rs Bea
Woods oopperhead paper, and tacity en-
dorscs ell that they can sal, against her.
We are in favor of paying Mr.. Lincolns
family the full amount Of the salary which he
would have received had he not been fouIly
murdered by Wilkes Booth while extending
pardon to the rebels who had been defeated
by our arms He was as truly victim to
the rebellion as any soldier who fell in the
attack on Richmond, and it is disgraceful that
Congress should thus delay to pay his bounty.
Thirty-five thousand dollars may have been
enough for the widow of General Harrison,
who died peacefully, and who lived at time
when that amount of money was fortune;
but, under all the circumstances, one hundred
thousand dollars is not too much to pay the
widow of President Lincoln, and we hope
that it will be paid without further parley II
is singular that people so generous as the
Americans should be so grossly misrepresented
in the present Congress- The bill granting
Mrs. Lincoln her husbands salary ought to have
been passed unanimously and without reference
to a committee. II is now too late to do this
gracefully; but still it ought to be done a
once.

pursuit Of burglar. night or two since
another policeman was shot and . private
Waterman had his leg broken in attempting to
arrest burglar The private Waterman is a
poor, one-armed veteran of the war, with a
family depending upon him for support. The
frequency of these burglaries in the district re-
ferred to has had the effect already Of depreci-
ating the value of real estate there. Both the
authorities and property owners should adopt
some means to suppress these outrages and rid
the district of the villains who commit them.
The best way to accomplish this is for the
Mayor of Brooklyn TO offer reward Of five
hundred or thousand dollars for the appre-
hension Of each of these midnight marauders,
and let the property owners double the amount.
This suggestion should be Immediately acted
upon.
