CHICAGO, February ia New
York special says private advices
from Rome say that at consistory of
the Catholic Church, to be held at
the Vatican this month, at least
twelve or fifteen new Cardinals will
be elected, and there is very little
doubt that Archbishop McClosky
will be one of them. Eleven names
are mentioned of expectant recip-
tents of the red hat. Prominent
among them are Archbishop Man
ming, and the Archbishops of Nun
ich, Cologne, Mechlin, De Champs,
Posen, and the Patriarch of Lisbon,
who makes an ex-otficio claim to the
dignity by virtue of a privilege ac-
cord by Clement NJ. TO these are
added the names of four high
officials to the former Papal Govern
ment. Archbishop Spaulding, of
Baltimore, would no doubt have
been made a Cardinal but for his
death, and that increases McClOSky's
chances. His friends here regard
his election us unquestionable.
WASHINGTON, February 19.-Scott

hukluk Committee, accompanied by
testimony and by a bill to extend

The report also recommends the

sal amnesty.
Cole introduced a bill directing
the Postmaster General to provide
Immediately by contract or other

California mails around the block

Blair presented a minority report.
Both reports We're ordered printed.
The House Committee on Civil
Service Reform agreed to-day to re-
port Il bill making it penal for Con-
gressmen to ask for a civil appoint
ment. 1t provides that they can
make recommendations only upon
request.
The Committee OF Ways and
Means this morning resolved to hold
on to the payment of the income
tax for 1871, but did nothing for the
future tax.
The Senate to-day confirmed
Charles Hale as Assistant Secretary

STATE CENTRAL COMMITTEE.

The Democratic State Central
Committee was in session yesterday
and transacted considerable business.
mostly relating to financial settle,
ments. The Committee adopted
resolution pledging an active en-
dorsement of the nominations OF the
National Democratic Convention,
and recon,aHendiag to the consldera-
ton of that Convention a policy Ia
voring the cooperation OF all the
elements antagOnIstlc to the re-e!ec-
ton of Gen. Grant. A majority OF
the Committee recommend to the
National Democratic Committee and
the National Convention the Missouri
policy so far as the Presidential
nomination is concerned, provided
the Liberal Republicans meanwhile
evince the power and disposition to
place a candidate in the field person
ally not distastefulto the Democracy,
on a platform Of opposition to the
c-entralizing tendenciesa and universal
corruption of the present Admins
tration. They urge a thorough or
g~anization of the Democratic party
both nationally and locally, express
ing the confident belief that with
united and energetic action both
State and nation a be wholly re-
deemed.
We believe the Committee has
acted wisely in the adoption OF the
resolution. We believe that the
Democracy Will cordially support
the nominations of the National
Democratic Convention whoever
they may be, having full confidence
in the wisdom of the assembled rep
resentatives of the National DemOc-
racv. On many of the preliminary
matters appertaining to the open
ing of the campaign the National
Central Committee will have to
act, and while the various local
committees can only recommend 1t as
due both to them and to the Central
Committee at headquarters that the
sentiment of the party all over the
country should be known that they
may act advisedly, and in harmony
with the spirit and purpose OF the
party. It has been often said by its
opponents that the Democratic party
is dead. but those who think 50, If
any, will be likely to discover before
the year IS over the immensely Of the
delusion which they are hugging.
The Democracy are a living power
in the land, and the time is not far
off when they viii be something
more-the supreme power of the
country.

A BEAUTIFUL PRESENT,

A prisoner at the State Prison, who
has been sick for some time and unable
to work at the quarry, has been amusing
himself i'll making quadrangular box,
about six inches square, the top of which
has needle cushion on it, of silk, neatly
arranged and with much taste. This box
occupies a central place on circular
board of fifteen inches in diamater, com
posed of many pieces of wood. There is
nothing peculiar in the shape Of the box
or platform, but its beauty consists in the
amount Of work and its arrangement.
There are six hundred and seventy-eight
pieces OF wood inlaid in such manner
as to preserve an agreeable contrast i'll
shape and color of the pieces. There are
white birch, lignumvitae, mahogany.
cedar, teak and many other kinds A
gentleman in town was the recipient of
this present for kindnesses conferred in
An official capacity. The present is in
tended for the gentleman wife.

O'clock. Thy left here for the fire yes

caved completely full, so that men can

Construction, Holmes, placed men and
carts at work last night. and will keep
his forces at work night and day until
the task is done.

PONIES AND THEIR CARRIAGE.-We saw
on the street yesterday splendid pair of
ponies, and carriage to match. These
animals are too large for the Shetland
breed, and too small for mustangs, and
we will split the difference and call them

beauties, just large enough to pull two
children, or one woman, or small sized

Thumb and his outfit We understand

LADD AND BILLING's STAGE. - Last
night Billings came in full. He had at
least fifteen passengers, and it looked
like the old days of Billy Wilson, before
we had a railroad. The burning of the
tunnel has disarranged the trains, SO his
line came in to universal use. People
will travel and if they can't go by rail,
will take the stage. What is one man S
loss is another mans gain," seems to
hold good in this case. We deplore the
loss to the Railroad Company, but as it
has occurred, we had rather Billings
would have the benefit than anyone we
know of.

RACE TRAcK-A visit to the race track
yesterday, reveals the fact that the Jockey
Club mean business. The track has
been subjected to thorough narrowing
and leveling, and is now being wet down
to make it hard and smooth. When in
this condition, from the nature of the
formation OF the soil, it possesses a nat
ural elasticity so much admired by ex-
perts OF the turf the water cart is in
constant use during the day, and will be
kept running until the races. There are
Il large number OF horses in training.
who take their regular airing and exer-
else around the track daily, and their
owners seem well pleased with their time
and general behavior. A bay mare in
training does very well, but thus far has
only been able to make her mile in 2,24,
but it is thought by next week she will
be able to beat 50 Occident' ~ this idea
however, has only obtained general Gre
dence in the last day or two. On the
whole, things look very satisfactory, and
a good time and some good square races
are expected.

Swift caught a man going through the

and deliberate manner. He had entered
through the window and made arrange

In a blanket spread on the floor he had
placed lot of shirts and other clothing
and been through the bureau drawers and
taken jewelry and other trinkets of value,
and hearing a noise he jumped out of the

RAILROAD TUNNEL BURNED.

Yesterday morning the news was re-
ceived that the American Flat tunnel was
on fire. The assistance of the fire COM
panies was asked, and as both companies
could not leave town at the same time,
Curry Engine No. 2 was shipped on board
a fiat and the train started for the burn
ing tunnel. The fire is supposed to have
caught from the down passenger train of
the night before, and was not discovered
until the early morning passenger train
of Harry Shrieves passed into the tunnel
at the usual rate of speed. When turn
ing the curve he ran into the fire which
had burned away a part of the roof: too
late to stop then, the engineer threw
open the valve and dashiug through a
shower of falling fire, timbers and rocks
he cleared the tunnel without accident
and gave the alarm. The Waterman,
whose business it is to look after this tur-
mel, it seems, was not at his post, and it
had been on fire several hours before dis
covered.
This tunnel, we believe, is 1874 feet
long, and is heavily timbered the whole
length, and large portion of the way
the. rock is loose and was only held in
place by these timbers.
The engine from Gold Hill and Currv's
from here did all they could but nothing
could check the fire, the draft through
was SO strong that the fire spread CON

the timbers gave way it commenced to |

the gas and smoke SO terrible that men
could not work, and it was found the

writing the whole tunnel is ruln-the
fire is out and SO are the timbers The
tunnel has ceased to exist as tunnel;
both ends are caved full, and it is sup

The company we understand will pro-

the hill, which will be done in two or
three days, and run their, trains as
usual; for the present passengers will
change cars at each end and be conveyed
around the point, distance of only two
or three hundred yards. Unfortunately
all the passenger coaches are at the Viz
5inia end of the road, but the old ones
will be used until the new track is done.
The tunnel will be fully repaired, but it

men can be worked, and the experience

10 the Editor Of The State Journal.
The quarterly term of our court Judge
Leake, presiding met yesterday, aud the
attendance was unusually large. Much of
its time was occupied in examining the Sc
curity offered by Mr.. Hector Davis, the
treasurer, who, by an order made at the
previous court, was required to give new
bond as treasurer.
We were sorry to see the undisguised
manifestation of feeling by some parties,
who don't believe anything good can come
out of Nazareth, against that gentleman,
who is admitted on all sides to have made
an efficient officer; and we thought the
court, itselfnot entirely free from its partici-
patton.
Mr.. Davis is Virginian, and the county
chairman Of the Republican committee of
this county the latter fact, perhaps, ere
ated the difficulty. His security seemed to
me TO have been tnaeGceptioRable, and no
unnecessary obstacles should have been in
terposed. On the other hand, the sheriff,
