ages Of the flrc.fend in Wisconsin and
are scarcely less terrible than In
Chicago, without the great commercial
interests 10 give them national sympathy.
There is q considerable number Of
Chicago refugees in thIe city. acci-
dentaly encountered very desiitu Q
party which had moved IRON one house
TO another three or jour times to be final
" driven TO the fields wit out shelter OF
any other valuables than those which
they had on their persons. They came
here on passes from the Chicago Mayor,
which were respected by all the roads
bit the Baltimore 81 Ohio. That rich
and powerful corporation declined 10
pass them ffte from Baltimore to Wash
ipgton.
The Secretary OF the Navy has done a
good thing in putline his foot on the vile
practice tnat has grown up 10 the Naval
School at Annapolis of illtre atiug new
corners. The arrogant superiority OF the
oder cadets, shown ia what is
called "Dsz'pg." has become 30 common
and has led 10 such startling abuses
that the Secretary has ordered the dis
misssl of severst cadets who were the
most guilty, and in his order he says:
1.-THE tradition aud instincts o. |. naval
officer call upon him 10 protect The weak, 4,
20 be KIND and courteous TO strangers,
and TO render the service OF the country
as acceptable 10 its memoeIs as its prl-
vations and hsTdshlps Will permit, The
department is determined 10 out root the
tendency 10 treat the incoming cadets
with violence and inhumaDity, aud will
punish 10 the extent of its power conduct
so unworthy OF officers aud gentlemen.
1t must be understood that though mere
youthful vivacity and mischief may be
often ove' looked, perSGsten, bidctgudTdisHs
win not be tolerated"
General Bdtler's Iaid on the Washing
ton treaty Is not very acceptable To the
Adminisuation which has depended on
the treaty tor large share OF iCs capital.
| The General, in his campaign Tor the
! GovernOrship, claimed that he was work.
| ing in the interest of President Grant,
and masked his tatlenes 30 well that
some people we're induced to believe him.
! Perhaps he also Iega' ds this onslaught
against the treaty of Washington as q
telling movement in favor of the Grant
admlni7ustion.
The first reports from Chicago that the
wooden pavcmen's were all destroyed By
the fire, and added largely IN spreaciBl
tie conf sgIaiion caused q feeling o
alarm 10 this city where wood pavement
are Just coming into nee, and have beer
largely adopted under the new plans o
Improvement by our Board OF Public
Works. Tne statements to the contrar,
which have recently appeared have there
fore given grest satisfaction to our Glti
.ens. 4 dispatch published TO day says
Tine wooden p4veDeuts remain intsc
and as firm as rocks, and are ODl'
scorched where rcd bot bricks or iToI
chanced to fall od them. They are abou
the only things which rtsistt d the ieariu
heat.
The opinion seeus 10 prevail here tha
Senator Sherman will be re-eltc ed b.
your ipcoming Legislature without an
serious opposition, Secretary nelano,
he ever had any idea of contesting MI
Sherman's claims to the place, has bee
in no position to act efficiently. Beaides
he bss always said that he was not
candidate; and, as a member oI the Cal
! met, where he has a growing rPputatio
) as an able and successful adminiftc9Liv
, officer, he was already in & position OF 8
much usefulness that his friends coul
: not press hm with eny show of plaus
, biity. Very likely lie was willing
have his name used in view OF wbi
r might happen IN the future, but had litl
/ desire TO be in The field at The present.
In his department Mr.. Delano appeat
\ 10 be steadily advancing in the publ

r goes guietly forward in the line OF cut
without "iusa or teat?ers," but worl
