very worthy and excellent legal gentleman,
deorge ". Thompson, Esq, taken with very
pleasant surprise, in the shape Of presen+a~
tlon OF 8 superb gold watch and chain, testi-
monlal from the Rector, Vestry, and congrega-
tlon OF Christ Church, so inscribed Oh the case.
Attendants at this sanctuary for the past eight
years will be at no loss to understand that this
is very happily in recognition Of the fact that
for much Of that period Mr. Thompson has
aided Mr. Cheney as render of the SERVICE with
Rklu and effectiveness few of the laity could
command 1t was handsomely done.

substantial measure Of relief. The Lake Shore
run half-hour1y trains from their depot on Har-
rison street to Englewood Junction, stopping at
street crossings. This will bring very closely
into the centre Of the South Division
the great population that has been gath
erinp eouthward more remote from the
lake shore. The Illinois Central Hyde
Park trains would, if started half-hourly, give
residents all the way from Twelfth street to Hyde
Park very fair accommodation. The Pittsburgh,
Fort Wayne l. Chicago havelong been taking pas
sengers anywhere from the west and southwest; /;
anincreased service on their dummy Enthusiastically
established, which land passengers on Madison
street. All these trains in operation would leave
our South Side residents only the disability Of
reaching some ono or the other Of these lines.
Their city termini are certainly convenient. The
West Side, widespread as it is is less we'll sup
pIied. but it is crossed at Sixteenth street and
Kinzie street, respectively, by the lines Of the
Chicago, Burlington T. Quincy, and the Chi
cago d Northwestern, and, by temporary ar
rangements, the trains of these roads could take
up passengers at street-crossings, and serve
very dense residence section this side OF Western
avenue. The Milwaukee Division Of the Chicago
s. Northwestern traverses the important sub
.urb of the Rolling Mills Of the North Branch,
and it's measure Of possible relief is not small.
1t is easy to strike out plans for railroad officers,
but in this instance the suggestion has already
been forestalled in some quarters. No other city
has railway facilities SO perfect as this radiation
of our steam lines. It is fortunate in our emer'
| gency that it is so, for we must look to an IN
terruption, Of ten days. duration at the best, be-
fore the horses come back to us with their &C
customed usefulness. Chicago has humanel,
adopted instant and general care of the sick
horses and animals exposed. Let the locomo'
motive now come to the rescue.

CHICAGO,

What Mr. james T. Fields Saw During His
Recent Visit to this City.
Mr.. J. T. Fields, who has just returned to
Boston from his first visit to the West, gave his
new lecture on Masters OF the. Situation" in
Cambridge, Mass, on Tuesday evening last at
the Dowse Institute, The following reference
in it to what he witnessed in Chicago will inter-
est every one:
A few hours ago stood for the first time in the
great City Of Chicago, amazed at the spectacle before

that noble metropolis Of the West had been 1oown

N1r. Bountrce as a Candidate for the
Illinois Legislature.

DARLINGTON, Wis.,, Oct. 81, 1872.
To the Editor Of The Chicago Tribune:
s1n: John II. Rountree, candidate for Repre-
sentative from your Sixth District, resided at
Platteville in Grant County, Wisconsin, until
afler our general election in 1871, which oc-
cured Nou. Z. Although previous to that time
he resided in Chicago, for more than one year,
Immediately preceding that time he resided at
Platterile, and claimed that to be his residence.
At the election Of Nov. 7, 1871, he was Demo-
cratic candidate for our State Assembly in the
Platteville district, and was defeated. If L am
right in assuming that one years residence in
Illinois is an essential qualification for an cleo
tor, Of course it follows Alr. Rountree is not an
elector in Illinois, and not eligible to the Office
he is candidate for. He doubtless claims his
sojourn in Wisconsin temporary, and with no
intent to gain q residence or:lofe his residence
in Illinois. But his acceptancApf the candidacy

Ts.E MARYLAND LEGISLATURE AND

RoAp.-The idea has very generally

exercise undue influence over the course
of Legislation in our General Assembly.
A writer 10 the So. Marys Bcacon
essays the defence Of both the Senate
and the House against the soft i'm.
peachment He says:
" Il may be in place to notice the com
mon and very false assertion that the pres.
ent General Assembly is controlled by the
President of the Baltimore and o. K. II.
Persons giving too easy credence to this as
sertion, will find it difficult to reconcile the
adverse report of the State Finance Com.
mittee with their received and unjust i'm.
pressions. The Senate Of Maryland is now
as 1t was last session, an eminently dignified
able and patriotic body, composed OF men
OF whom any State or county might and
would be justly proud, and although the
present House Of Delegates, as a whole, is
inferior to the Senate, in ability as in ex.
Perience, il is free from all just suspi-
clon ofbeing influenced BY eorrupting agen.
cies or other than pure and honorable
motives. Its average ability is respectable,
and it numbers among its members some
men Of rare talent and quickness in de,
