Montmedy is fortified town in the Depart-
ment Of Meuse on the Chiers, p miles north of
NerduD. IL is also on the circuitous line of rail-
road connecting Nets with Paris by way of
Rheims, where Napoleon has his headquarters.
1t is about 90 miles from Metz to Montmedy, and
il seems remarkable that Bazaine should have
succeeded IN getting away that distance uude-
tected by the Prussians, who appeared Up to
Sunday TO hold him in vice. We arc inclined
yet to question that he lie q Montmedy. but he
may be heading in that direction.

The New York Herald comes out strongly in
favor of civil service reform, dwelling more es-
peciaIly upon the pernicious custom Of changing
clerks at the dictation Of every Congressman or
politician of influence in the dominant party
The Herald dates the growth OF this bad prac-
tice since Lincoln's time, and charges it upon
the Republican party; but it really had its
origin in the times Of Jscksonian Democracy.
It's. however, pernicious practice wherever
and whenever originated, and if the Republl-
can party did not give it birth, they are respon-
sible for adopting il. That il should be broken
up there is no doubt, but that it will be is du-
bious 80 long as the patronage" of this sort is
held to be the perquisites OF members of Con-
gress. to be used by them in paying for cleo
pioneering work.

MARYLAND POLITIcs.-About tive hundred
white and colOred Republicans assembled last
night at Mount Vernon Hall, in Baltimore, in
attendance upon mass meeting called By those
favorable TO the nomination Of General Adam
+. King a a candidate for Congress from the
Third Congressional District OF MARYLAND
General King Is well known in this city, having
been on the stan of General Augur during the
war. goodly portion OF those present were, 1t
appears, favorable to the nomination Of X.
Stoekett Matthews, Esq. instead or General
King, and the disorder was 50 great that the
meeting broke up in a row without accomplish
ing anything.
They seem to manage things better in the
Fourth District The Republicans of Carroll
county met in convention on Monday last, and
with great unanimity instructed their delegates
TO the District Convention to vote for the nomi-
nation of Hon. John f.. Smith as their candidate
for Congress.

The engineers of the several railroads center
ing in Baltimore having been requested by the
president OF the Union Railroad Company OF
that city to consider the question Of the best
practicable route for the Union Railroad from
the northwestern boundary of the city to join
with the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad, Western
Maryland Railroad, Baltimore and Potomac
Rail road, the Northern Central Railroad, Bal
timore, Philadelphia and Wilmington Railroad,
thence TO tide water at Canton, have adopted
what is known as the Baltimore and Potomac
Railroad route, for which they have an ordi-
nance of the city giving them the right to tunnel
under the beds OF the streets from the western
limits to Jones Falls. The engineers all concur
in the report except Mr.. Randolph, of the Bal
timore and Ohio Railroad, who approves of the
route as an engineer, but is of the opinA
ion that it viii operate anequslly and to
the disadvantage OF the road he represents,
so that the Baltimore and Ohio Company
will probably seek q route OF their own.
The Baltimore and Potomac railroad has con-
demned by jury all the land they require for
their route up TO the city limits. and juries are
to be summoned next month to condemn the
property up TO the mouth of the tunnel, which
il TO commence at the junction or Gilmor and
Winchester streets. The tunnel will commence
at Gilmor street, passing from thence under the
bed Of Winchester street, close along the line OF
the northern fence Of the Cathedral burying
ground. After IL crosses under the bed of Ere
mont street it will enter the ground secured for
a western depot, between Fremont and Penn
sylyanis avenue, making an open break in the
tunnel. From thence 1t will pass in a tunnel
under Pennsylvania avenue TO the entrance Of
Wilson street. and thence under the bed Of VIII
son street to the Northern avenue, and under
the bed OF Northern avenue TO the Falls.

A Sad Mishap-

The following story from the
IAbead Zeit,uag, the German eve
ming paper of Chicago, deserves
translation. 1t says lit was a
small but merry company that
met on Thursday evening at our
friend Kenkel's, under Sherman
House. Bottle followed bottle in
rapid succession, and the stone" of
the imbibers was the most exalted.
But finally came a reaction, a
|drowsiness overlook a majority, all
but four departed. This quartette
had eft" so nobly that the field
was literally stIewed with their
bodies, and aid was required to
get them home. Accordingly the
proprietor called a carriage from
the stand, opposite the way, and
with difficulty deposited a custom
er in each corner. He then turu-
ed to the driver and Instructed him
as fOllows:-- -sE
'Dis one in de left corner drive
to NO. West Randolph street.
Dis one in de right corner you
must take to de marble front on
Union street, near the Baptist
church. You must take him up
de stairs, and tell his wife not to-
fight NIT him. Dat leetle feller in
the back seat take to Milwaukee
Avenue, by Schultze's, next the
Odd Fellows Hall, and de odder
one lives by Linkum Park"
The driver with an 'sall right"
slammed the door of the carriage,
mounted his seat and was off.
Mr.. Kenkel and his "J0e" set
things to rights in the place, and
in ablut twenty minutes were
ready to close the saloon, when
the Identical carriage again halted
before the door.
"What's the matter 2 inquired
the proprietor.
al have met with sad mishap,"
answered the driver. sin passing
sharply around corner the jolt
of the vehicle threw them all into
a heap. i have been trying to
right them, but can't tell which
from 'tother. Won't goa please
sort them again 3"
