sideratlon Tor municipal government is to

be elected by using water for the propelling

the river bank would be the worst to over
come, especially in the present depressed
state OF the city finances; but when com
pleted, you would have a water department
second to none on the continent, and less
expensive than many other works of the
same Kind. The motive for bringing this
matter before the board ut this time (how.
ever inopportune, in financial point of
view, it may BEL is the contemplated
enlargement and improvement of the
canal. The committee, if these sug-
gestions are concurrcd in, may be able

be apparent to every one, as lasting,

OF the citizens at large. L have no wish to

hands OF committee, for the purposes set
forth, that Council may be placed in posses

through their Investigations, may be able to

feels able to grapple with the subject, they
may be prepared to act.

morrow" He was trusted.

A curious scene was recently witnessed on
the Potomac, opposite Alexandria, which is
thus described by the Gazette, of that city !:
ga gull had, with swoop, struck its talons
deep into the back of a fish, the size of
which it had evidently mistaken, for instead
OF bearing it away, as it had intended, the
fish not only remained in the water, but
swan rapidly about on the surface of the
river, mounted by its fluttering and now
alarmed assailant, which was unable to dis
engage its claws from their living fastenings.
The bird in its endeavors, at first to carry
of and then to free itself from its intended
prey, soon exhausted its strength, and its
efforts becoming gradually weaker from ex-
haustion, the would-be captor became the
captured, was dragged screaming beneath
the water, and its death notes choked by
the ripping waves as they closed over it. ]"

By means Of tacking on of the require
ment to the Virginia, Mississippi and Texas
reconstruction Act, that those States shall
adopt the fifteenth amendment to the Con-
stitution, it is calculated that that amend
ment will become an article Of the funda-
mental law by the spring of 1870. Counting
these three States, without Ohio, Indiana
and Georgia, twenty States it is be-
ieyed, will ratify that article, and one moro
than is necessary. SO far, twenty-one
States have adopted the amendment, viz:
Maine, Massachusetts,, New York, Penn
sylvania, West Virginia, North Carolina,
South Carolina. Alabama, Tennessee, Florida,
Michigan, Illinois, Wisconsin, Minnesota,
Iowa, Missouri, Nebraska. Nevada, Ar
kansas, Louisiana and Kansas The ratifi-
cations of Kansas and Missouri. however.
are known to be informal. Four States,
Vermont, Rhode Island, Connecticut and
New Hampshire, it is believed, will ratify
the amendment during the present year.
Georgia and Indiana are both doubtful-it
having been defeated once in the former
State, in part by Republican votes, and the
Democrats, i'll the Legislature of the latter,
refusing to remain in their seats whenever
1t Is called up. thus preventing the presence

BROwNLOw IN THE SENATE.-The Wash
ington correspondent of the Cincinnati En-
quirer writes of Brownlow as follows:
The condition of the new Senator from Ten.
nessee excites deep sympathy. He sits in the
Senate bolt upright in chair with high
back. upcn which his head rests, and seldom
changes that position. He is afflicted with
the palsy, and his hands and feet shake con-
stantly, like an aspen leaf He tries occa-
sionally to prevent this involuntary movement
by clasping his hands across his knees. This
only gives momentary relief, for as soon as he
gets tired of holding his hands in this position,
and relaxes, both hands shake and culver as
before He can't speak above whisper, and
when his vote is wanted, his son, who sits by
his side almost constantly, answers tor him.
He can't write, and the speech which was read
for him last week on the civll-tenure bill must
have been written by another, from his posi-
ton. His cOuntenance wears an expression
Of Sadness and the physical wreck of what
was once an active and vigorous man excites
pity from every beholder.

SAMPLE EECoNSTRuCIIONISrS split
Of the Radicals of Virginia has resulted in
there brirg two tickets Tor State officers in
the field. The extreme wing have nominated
for Governor carpet-bagger from Michigan,
who left that State under an indictment for
felony, and for Lieut.. Governor, they put in
nomination a Richmond negro named Lindsay,
who's" style can be judged by the following ex-
tract from n speech which he made in that city
a few days after his nomination. He said
The white man had had the negro down two
hundred years; but that now the negro was on
top. They had in their hands the chains and
manaclcs with which the white man had kept
the negro bound for so long, and they intended
to put them on the white man, and to make
him groan. and sweat, and work, before they
were done with him. He said General Grant
knew something about tanning and would help
them to tan the white man until his skin was
as black and tough as theirs.

were known to be on the way, with freight and
passengers, at last accounts.

mine, Grass Valley, California, and noted for
his many charities, died in San Francisco a

quest his remains are to be embalned and in.

quarters in that city, at rental of sererteea
thousand dollars per annum AS his salary is

A FINAL DECIsIoN-A Vermont pa per says:
The case of Walker, of Burlington, against
Capt. c. r. Crane, Provost Marshal during the
late war, has been decided in the U. S Su-
preme Court by confirmation of the judgments
of the county and State courts, which have
been seyerally appealed from. Crane had i'm
prsoned Walker for resenting rude order,
and Walker now gets $1,000 damages. The
question was whether the Provost Marshal
transcribed his authority in the arrest, and the
decision is that he did
