York HelaL1:

ms 10 d SptCldl AllSpdlcn 70 tne New
York Herald:
New ORLEANS, December 9.-Gov-
ernOr Warmoth, ever fertile Of resource and
apt with meeting exigencies the most trou,
besome with ready expedients, formed a
noTel plan to defeat the kelIoggiies on their
own ground last night. OF the fourteen
State Senators holding over for contingent
cles he won over eight 10 act for him in the
Legislature. These were to vore in the
friendly Senators and keep out all those
antagOnistic to the views OF the Governor.
The scheme was discovered, however. hy
some means, and frustrated by Lieutenant
Governor Pinchbac!l, who ordered the en-
tire roll to be called and immediately swore
IN the new Senators returned according 10
the last election returns. plchback created
turore of excitement. After the roll
had been called he made a statement to
the effect that at late hour on Sunday
night he was visited by Warmoth ana
offered the sum of so, 000 and large share
OF appointing patronage to revolutioniz5
the Senate. How far the scheme had been
carried before Pinchback was entrusted
with the secret can not be ascertained now,
but from the fact that eight OF the s'fencc-
men" had gone straight into the Warmoth
fold before Saturday proves that the guber-
material party had been uncommonIy ac-iv.

EIfpfilPn,

We copy this just tribute 20 fremen from
the New York Times:
General Burt. postmaster of Boston, in a
letter to Massachusetts Cungress1nen,
sta IS that nearly twenty members of the
fire department Of that city lost their lives,
or were permanently disabled, by the late
contiagration. Several Of them persisted in
their heroic efforts to save the property of
the United States, which they succeeded in
doing. "WhiIe citizens and corporations
lost all, > says Mr.. Burt, "tLe United States
governments thanks to these men, saved
substantially everything" Considering
these facts, he suggests that it would be
both appropriate and just if their services
were recognized by Congress in the form of
donation to the fund now being raised in
Boston for the relief of their bereaved
families. He suggests the moderate sum of
$4,000; it will strike most people that the
government might comply with this request
without being guilty of extravaganza.
Firemen are always risking their lives; they
are among the most hard working Of our
servants, and they ought to be encouraged.
in every possible way.
