AS tire time approaches for the meet
ing of the next General Assembly of
Iowa, the question of appointments to
the various. responsible positions i'm the
Senate and Houee becomes ofinterest
to the people. No Legislative body can
perform its labors smoothly aud eco
nomically without efficient clerks
Good clerks, like poets, are born, not
made, and it is therefore somewhat
dangerous to- experiment., when tried
and faithful men are ut hand.
We understand that ]. M. .Weart,
ESQ.,, of this city, will be candidate
before the Senate for the position of
Secretary. In our opinion, the Senate
would find in Mr.. Weart a most eff
c.ent and courteous officer, whose int
dustry, urbanity, and above all, whose
experiences. IN the peculiar work re-
quired, would insure faithful and sat
isfactory performance of the duties of
the responsible position of Secretary +z
Mr.. Weart served the Senate of the
last General Assembly in the position
of 1st Assistant Secretary with great
acceptance. His experience, acquired
aJ that term, would prove invaluable to
the next Senate. Mr. Weart has had
an honorable army experience, having
been the first man, in New Jersey to
enlist. "for the war; in 1851. With his
valuable experience and undoubted
qualifications and the cordial e1dbrse=
ment of those members Of the Senate
who hold over from the last General
Assembly, Mr.. Weart cannot fail to
command ready support in the Senate
for the position of Secretary hide

Sherman was in command in Kentucky he was
serenaded by n regimental band, and made a
speech, in answer to calls, as follows:
.What the dickens are you officers doing
here, making such an iufsrnal noise? You
ought to be in your quarters teaching your SOL
diers to quit burning fence rails, and making
soldiers OF them. want no more Of this infer

General Burton was serenaded at Columbia,

Judge Brady, of the Court of Common Pleas OF
New York city, relates in Horpu's -Nayq=tec the
following anecdotc
An Irishman, who had doubtless been {. blue
mouldin' for want of Il batin', - and could not
resist the temptation to have 4 little exercise,
was arraigncd for an assault and battery. He
listened with apparent attention to the reading
of the indictment. When that ceremony was
ended Nr. Vaadervoort, the clerk, asked him. in
accordance to the form then in use:
Z" Do you demand a trial ca this indictment?'
Pat, leaning forward in seeming utter ignorance
of what had been asked him, said:
"What's that?'
Mr. Vandervoort, little dashed By the man
ner of the man, repeated the question and the
response was:
The diyil thrial I want Ye needn't give
yourself the throube Of thryin' me Ye may
as well save the expens9 OF that ard put ne

me blessin' OF ye Inlade I'm anxious, FOR me

divil thrial want ut all, at all ~
All this was said so rapidly that Mr. Wander
voort could not interpose to stop it and the
prisoner having, as he supposed, settled the busi-
ness, attempted to leave the court but was OF
course prevented. Mr. yandervoort, when the
mirth had subsidized, changed the question and
asked
"Are you guilty or not guilty?"
"What's that?' said he again, leaning for
ward with his hand to his ear, as if he had not
heard the question.
" Are you guilty or not guilty ~
The answer came at once " 1rrGh d! hoe the

He was permitted to hear just the least taste
of testimony, that eyentuated in his being sent

coast from their vessel, which they reported a

LITERARY MATTERS.
Publishers here manifest great backwardness
in coming forward. The offer Of prize Of
s. 900 for the best treatise on California and
its products has produced no emulation, so far
as can see. 1t would require the steady, ex-
elusive application of the compiler for one year,
and as he would be obliged to live meanwhile
and to pay for assistance, the pay would be poor,
II successful, while the work might not be ac-
cepted, thus entailing loss upon the enterpris
ing competitor which few authors, | imagine,
are able to sustain. The only statistical work
prepared for this coast is that of J. Ross Browne
and that was written and compiled principally
by Bennett, formerly of the Washoe Times.
Browne has also published report on Arizona
when he never in his trip to that Territory de-
parted from the beaten track. while Mr. Il. f.
Greeley, who was there at the same time, cx-
tended his researches into the heart Of the Pinal
Apache country, bringing away with him some if-
ty original sketches His letter-press illustra-
tions are in the highest degree interesting.
THEATRICAL AND MUSICAL.
The event of the week has been the produc-
ton, at the Academy of Music, of the promised
opera entitled "L'Africaine." 1t has since
drawn crowds, being splendidy mounted and
admirably calculated to bring ont the splendid
qualities of Nguoima, Brlmbila, Bonheur, Mil
lese Mancusc and Limbert. 1T the Opera

brought forward entitled - Ours" from the pen
of the late Artemus Warl-seats crowded At

There is a marked improvement in sales at

duce remains at previously stated figures, with
