Last evening, between the hours of and
o'clock, the Democratic party of Philadelphia
held its delegate elections in the various divi-
sions and it is but just to say that no scenes of
disorder, such as prevailed last year, occurred
in any part of the city. That this was so arises
from the fact that there is but little chance of
the success of the Democratic candidates at the
coming election, and consequently there was an
inactive canvass but few gentlemen being will
ing to undergo the useless expense attending q
political campaign at this time. No interest
was taken by the people in the primary eec
tions, and there was but very light vote
polled.
The various Congressional, Legislative, and
Ward Conventions assembled at the designated
places at 10 o'clock this morning, and the result
of their deliberations will be found in the full
reports which are appended. AS usual there
were the same disturbing elements which pre-
vail at all political conventions in effecting an
organization, the new rules of the party requir
ing the Executive Committeeto name the Presi-
dents of the City and County Conventions not
extending to those in session to-day. There
was also the usual crowd on the outside of the
various halls, who took active part in the
endeavors "to fix" delegates. The candidates,
of whom there were remarkably few, were on
hand, and as q matter of course were the CEN
tres of attraction, especially if one were known
to be in possession of few dollars, with which
the thirsty appetites of the unterrifed could be
satisfied.

WASHINGTON, June 2S.-The President in

the protocol of the San Domingo treaty and
General Babcocks connection Herewith, has
written letter to the committee having charge

rest upon Babcock, as that officer was simply

cock in order to set him right before the country.

biological genius Jupiter Pluvius persist In
keeping closed the aerial nood'gates many
days days longer; therefore, Whilst not wishing
to create any undue alarm, we would advise our
housekeepers, our sugar refners, our brewers, and
manufacturers in general to be careful In their
use of water and to see that none is unnecessarily
wasted. Perhaps we may have rain inside OF twenty
four hours, perhas not for weeks. 1t is all in the
hands Of Divine Providence, and since His doings
are In nscrutable would again repeat our advice,
Be careful in the use of water. And now word to
our authorities. Two more meetings OF Councils
will be held before the summer recess is TAKEN aud
at either one Of these meetings something must be
done.
There is no use of shirkng the matter steps must
be taken relative to the water supply else we pre-
dict the calling Of another extra meeting during the
sweltering days of August.
