ent. The committee on railways reported mex
pedient on the order relative to change in your
depot act so as TO dispense with the viaduct,
matter which, believe, owing to the action of
your city council, never had hearing. Bills
were introduced TO incorporate the Fitchburg
street railway company, TO increase the salary of
the attorney general to $4,000 year. and TO es-
tablish the district of central Mddlesex. The
Boston water bill was hurried through, with an
amendment providing that Sudbury river shall
not be dried up entirely by the taking of water.
Bills were engrossed TO establish the first district
court OF northern Mid1lesex; to provide for the
uniform taxation of reservoirs; to provide for
the formation of railway corporations; to in
crease the salaries of the justices of the superior
court; to incorporate the Melrose savings bank,
and to authorize the formation of street railway
corporations.
Some fifteen committees had meetings assign
ed for this forenoon, but the larger part of them
were merely for cOnsultion for the purpose of
finishing up the business in their hands. The
Joint special committee on the liquor law will
make report on Monday on the order offered
by Mr.. Kimbal of Fitchburg, some time since,
~ nnNhu oONtiOu % vi OudptCI tlJ VI TUE dCls
of 1869, relative to recognizauce not to violate
the law for year after conviction under the act.
A report was made about the middle of the
present month that it was ineSpedient to legis-
late, and this was accepted by the house, but
a motion to reconsider was made and carried
in a thin house, and the order was recommit-
ted. The committee have now voted to report
a bill amending the section above named so as
to fix the bonds at $500 instead of $1,000, and
require sureties satisfactory TO the court to be
given. OF course this will bear hard on small
dealers, and, if prosecutions are persisted in,
will tend more to stop the sale of liquor than
anything yet proposed. There will probably be
a minority report made, as three of the men,
bers dissent from the majority conclusions.
The committee on prisons held private ses-
sion and looked over the report in favor of a
prison for women which has been drawn up by
Mr.. Winslow of Newton. The committee are
so thoroughly convinced of the wisdom of this
measure that they will endorse it and present a
resolve authorizing the governor to draw from
the treasury the amount necessary for the build
ing.
The committee on labor have given hearing
on the subject of convict labor and heard the
views of several contractors and some of the
inspectors of the state prison, as to the effect of
the contract system upon the several trades
The committee have before them bill providing
that in contracts for labor of convicts, there
shall be but one contractor for the same kind of
labor Some of the "labor" men complain that
the present competition is injurious to them.
To avoid such a state of things, if it exist, it is
proposed to adopt this bill, and divide up the
men among larger number of occupations.

The New York World, after coquetting with

ever be required for telescope purposes. On re-
admitting the air, the glass Immediately RECEIVERS
its plane surface, and on forcing in air with the
power of the lungs, it assumes degree of con-
vexity nearly equal TO its former concaYity. The
degree of concayity or convexity may be regu-

to render the degree of concavity constant by
placing TO the air-tight chamber disc of iron
turned to the required form, and allowing the
pressure of the atmosphere to retain the glass
in the form given to it by its close contact with

A bon mot relating to the Tichborne trial is
crculating;in Westminster hall. A few days after
the passage of arms between the attorney-gen-
eral and Mr. Sergeant Ballantine the latter was
asked by a learned friend "whether the attornev-
general had not yet got down to Mapping ?"
The reply was, NO, my lord; he has not yet
got out of Billingsgate."

tea at San Francisco, reads thus: "They are

The recent excavations of Pompei have dis
closed several Curious structures. One house
had evidently been in a state Of repair when the
volcano storm buried it. Painters and decora-
tors were masters of the situation. The house
hold goods were all in disorder, and the family,
if not out of town, must have been undergoing
that condition of misery which spring cleaning
and other like infections inevitably entail.
Painters pots and brushes and worllingmen'S
tools were scattered about Tell-tale spots of
whitewash starred wall and floor. Such do
nestle implements as pots and kettles had been
bundled up in corner all by themselves, and
the cook was nowhere. Dinner, however, had
not been forgotten. A solitary pot stood sim
mering (if ever it did simmer on the stove, and
(start not, for it is true,) there was bronze
dish in waiting before the oven, and on the dish
sucking pig all ready to be baked. But the
oven was already engaged with its full compile
ment of bread: so the sucking pig had to wait,
and it never entered the oven, and the loaves
were never taken out until after sojoun of
1900 years. They had been cooking ever since

JUSTIN MCCARTHY ON THE THANKSGIVING
PROCESSION Mccarthy, in a letter from
London, says: An eminent American, who was
in London the other day and saw the thanksgiv-
Ing procession pass through Fleet street, was, |
am told, delighted at the wonderful order pre-
served in that vast crowd, and frankly declared
10 those around bin that such thing would be
impossible in New York. As | have heard his
testimony quoted by several delighted London
ers, let me remark that have seen several pro-
sessions in New York, and saw the London
Thanksgiving procession from much the same
point of view as the American enthusiast and
my mind was filled all the time with a reflection
Of the very opposite kind. Order was kept in
Fleet street by mass of cavalry and infantry
and police, by troopers charges, driving back
the struggling and shrieking crowd by the bayo-
nets of soldiers presented at sitting men and
fainting women. | saw this sort of thing over
and over again under the windows where | sat.
saw the soldiers driving the people with bayo-
nets and saberS. saw our gallant policeman,
to whom all praise for his pluck, wrench the
6ayonet from the musket of an Infatuated sol
der and save some struggling wretch from a
few inches of steel. don't say that the soldiers
were to be blamed. | myself heard the order
given by an officer to a cluster of cavalry to drive
the crowd back, although it seemed TO me there
was plenty of room for any kind of procession
to move along. But why this sort of thing
should 6ll an American with enthusiasm and
delight, certainly don't understand.

Gen. GRANT PERSONALLY But your corre-
spondent begs to refer TO the president merely
as typical head of his party, and not the indi-
Vldual representative of any frand, or job, or
corruption. lie has always entertained the be-
lief OF the presidents personal integrity, and
states furthermore that an investigation into his
pecunlary affairs cOrroborates his belief He
does this specifically to justify his opinion, TO
DO Justice TO political adversary, and also TO
correct an erroneous impression The presi-
dent has been and is possessed of this propertv
viz: One hundred thousand dollars donated
to him by the merchants of New York. a bouse
in Philadelphia, $4,000, rented now at S240O
per year; $40 acres of land near st Louis, pur.
chased, with all improvements, at less than
S5O,0OO; one-fourth of 100 acres of land situat-
ed near Chicago, $4,000; $4,000 stock in Michi-
gan iron company; his Long Branch residence,
S30,0O0, and a small amount in Adams express
aud railroad shares. The bulk of this property
was obtained through the gifts made to him by
the New York merchants before he was elected
president, the real estate presented 10 him i'm
Philadelphia and Washington, and his purchase
OF the st. Louis estate from his brother-in-law.
10 is not improper to state more specifically that
the presidents income, outside of his salary MS
president, is about $4,000 per year. make these
statements because 1t has been charged by Mr..
Wendell Phillips that Gen Grant was worth
100000 or 100000, and because am satisfied
that statement is untrue. Perhaps il should be
added to this that Gen Grant Is anything but
an extravagant man personally, and the story is
