BLNAI< REGISTRATIONS.
Witness informed by General West,
who, when elected to the United States
Senate, was Administrator of Improve
ments, department of the city gov
eminent, that the Governor, when ap-
pointing the Administrators, cNacted
from every one Of them Il letter of res-
ignation, with the date blank, SO that
he could fill it at any time, dismiss an
incumbent and appoint his successor.
Witness did not know this to be the
fact himself.
| HE GOES ON TIE STAFF.
Witness did not raise Il company for
Warmoth during the trouble last
month. Thought it time, however
to do a soldiers duty, and went on
General Longstreet's staff. Was on
his staff in the interest Of peace and
order. Carried revolver. The Po-
lice were a very fine body of men =,
mostly soldiers either in the Federal or
Confederate armies. 1t did not take
much brains to be soldier.
HE sPEcULATEs IN STOCK FROM rItE:
| BENCH.
Witness has sold stocks since he has
been on the Bench. Had owned stock
in the Mexican Gulf Ship Canal Com
pany, but sold it before that Company
appeared in his Court as litigant. Has
no recollection Of adjourning his Court
to go out and sell stock, knowing that
he could render 4 decision that would
cause Il depreciation of the shares. Wit
ness knew the suit was going to be in
stituted when he sold his stock. His
stock transactions were all made
through a broker.

Complaint comes from New York
city THAT marriages have almost ceased
in fashionable circles. Over four hun

men are available, but wealth must
