Among the rumors in circulation in Wash
ington is one that the salary of the Assistant
Secretary of the Treasury will be increased
by Congress, to five thousand dollars, and
that Judge Richardson will return to this
city and again assume the functions of
that Office, which has been vacant since he
retired. in October last 1t will be remem-
bered that Mr.. Boutwell, has not yet been
disposed to accept Richardson's resignation.
which is pending. That the latter gentle
man will return here in some official capacity
ere long, is thought by some Of his friends
as by no means IMPROBABLE.

The concert at the Mechanics Institute on
Monday night, was entirely successful i'll
respect to the performance. But the audi
ence was not so large as to make it a pecu-
MARY success. Mrs. Basile Bares executed
"Shoo Fly" and other brilliant pieces on
the piano. with splendid effect. Miss Hor-
tense Grips sang Ny Southern Sunny
Home in manner indicating great mu-
steal promise. Mrs. ID. White executed
"Swcet Spirit, Hear My Prayer" with fine
taste and expression. The whole concert
deserved better patronage.

We copy this from the Washington
Patriot:
The arNriyers of New Orleans are on a
strike for higher wages. They complain Of
insufiiciency Of pay, having to work sixteen
to eighteen hours out of the twenty-four,
and receiving therefor only fifty dollars per
month, out Of which eighteen dollars is de-
Quoted for board. In an address to the
New Orleans public, they say: 1--WE are
poor, while these corporations 1.-THE car COM
panies) are rich and powerful; though poor,
we are honest" This appeal is much like
the language made use Of by Red Dog, the
great Sioux orator, who followed Red
Cloud in speech on the occasion Of re-
ception given to the latter at Cooper 1nsti-
tute, New York, last summer: "LOok at
my young men around me-" said Red Dog;
"do they look rich! No; they are all poor,
because they are all hOnest!" There is
logic, we take it, in the plea of the ear
drivers, as there was true elOquence in
Red Dogs illustration.

A LITTLE ROMANCE AND SOME REALrrv
At noon yesterday, two men with push
cart containing trunk, rolled up to the
Lafayette street station house. One man
wac chief engineer Of the vehicle and the
other Immediately interested in the trunk
The interested party was Henry Tav,or.
who had by chance seen the trunk and cart
passing along the street, when he recor.
nized the trunk as the property of his wife.
The green eyed monster took possession Of
his passion, and he took possession of the
Golfer, directing the engineer to put on
steam and go to the stationhouse. At
which point disturbance of the peace
occurred. Taylor was taken before Re.
cordcr HoughtOn, where he extenuated his
coaduct by informing the court that for
several weeks gay deceiver had been in.
terrupting his domestic tranquility, and
when he saw the trunk he knew his peace Of
mind and domestic happiness were departed
forever. Hence the dipturbance, but the
unsaithful spouse and gay deceiver did
not appear. To double his trouble he was
fined a small sum for his violence. He left
the courtroom muttering vengeance on the
man who had stolen his wife and trunk. I,
may be that duel or dreadful tragedy
will ensue.

The Bay st. Louis Gazette is somewhat

The Bay st. Louis Gazette is somewhat
severe on the lake steamers. 1t says:
The steamboats, that have for SO many
years been infesting our coast. have at last
ceased running, being most effcctually SUI
perscded by the railroad. We part from
them without regret, for the whole system
of steamboat navigation on Mississippi
Sound. from the days Of the old Mobile
mail line down to the last expiring throes OF
the Creole and Camelia, has been de
leterious incubus upon the best interests OF
this section of country. 1t was simply inn
possible for any Of our scacoast towns to
arrive at any degree Of prosperity, as long
as the black shadow of these gasping steam
boat monopolies hung over them. But they
are gone-let us hope forever.

The Washington Patriot has this abou

The Washington Patriot has this about
cotton:
During our late civil war great activity
xras manifested in the culture of cotton in
Egypt and India. 1t was fondly hoped in
England that in the interval Of strife the
South would lose its prestige as the pro-
ducer of cotton, and England foresaw a
great future of wealth arising. from the
growth of this precious staple in her
Eastern possessions. But the proposition
made by man in this matter has been nnlli-
fed by the disposition made by nature. The
sceptre of the cotton rule has been resumed
by the South, and India and Egypt are re-
firing ing sS% the Of the IL which
heen received from Bombay by the cotton
srowing associations of London and Man
chester. mentioning serious decrease in the
number Of acres under cultivation in India

A. f. Blackmar, No. 2Ol Canal street, is
receiving large addition to his already
superior stock of pianos. The various de-
scriptions of piano sold by Mr.. Blackmar
are first-class Instruments, coming from the
best manufactures in the country-Chicker-
ing, Grovesteen, Gabler, and others-so that
whatever style of piano may be selected at
Blackmar's the purchaser is sure to get
good one. for none others are sold at the
"Temple Of Music" Yet these pianos are
cheap in relation to their superior quality,
while the terms upon which they are offered
and sold bring them within the reach OF
persons of very moderate means, as any one
will find who examines the instruments and
ascertains the terms. Although Blackmar
has a fine store on Canal street, and sells
nothing but first-class pianos, his prices are
no higher than are charged for inferior
instruments by small dealers in back
streets. Call at the Temple Of Music No.

The New York Herald says:

The recommendation of the Secretary OF
the Treasury, that the interest on the bonds
be paid every three months, is received in
Washington with great favor, for the reason so
that it affords greater convenience to the
holder, while it makes no difference to the
Government. The arguments in its favor
are that where the investor subsists only
upon an annual yearly income received
from his investment, it is OF great nnpor-
lance to him to be able to get his none!
fn,r times wear instead Of twice Bank
ers and others who hold large amounts OF
bonds would be saved in frequent instances
the trouble and expense of borrowing if this
interest were paid more frequently: 1t is
held that the change would be an induce
ment to many to invest, and many VINO have
invested to buy more largely OF the bonds.
