ENGLISH EXTRAvAGANCE.-The
following remarks of the London
Spectator are suggestive and worthy
of consideration
1--WE are often asked if there are
no signs that the expensiveness Of
English society, especially in the
higher ranks, may speedily begin to
decrease. We see no signs of 1t,
and hold it to be much more proba-
bic that we are on the eve of an era
of ostentation as tawdry and Of ex-
travagance as pitiable as that which
marked the Regency. This is the
American tendency, and we see
nothing, no new and strong idea,
which should mark off the manners
of our society from those of the
wealthy in the United States. Pub
lie life ia becoming rather less than
more attractive to those who have all
but power. The taste for art, which
is developing rapidly, is the most
expensive Of all tastes except the
taste for gambling, and that is not
on the decrease. The millionaires
are becoming more numerous every
day, and they certainly do not spend
their wealth more for the public ben
eft"

The social Evil.

Ma. EDITOR In s. recent issue Of your paper.
You state that the Social Evil Law - in -. Louis,
Mo, has been II failure. Allow NE TO send to you
the following facts, taken from al elaborate report
to the Board of Health Of that city, April 81, 1871,
by a committee appointed to examine into the work
ings Of the law:
Whole number Of prostitutes registered when
the law went into operation, us; number now regis
tered, 4oO decrease, 23S. Number Of houses Of
ii-fame in the city when the law went into effect.
lIs number now in the city, 20 number Of III
mates diseased at first, IS number now. Is. Since
the registration 229 women have been nddei to the
registry list, making the total registry a. actual
decrease Of this class Of women, los. The report
further states that the general sanitary condition Of
these women has been greatly improved under the
operation Of the law. OF the total number Of wo-
men registered, it has been ascertainei that 702 Of
them became prostitutes from choice, lOl because
they were seiucei, s. because their husbands treated
them badly, and 81 from necessity. The number Of
men seeking the society of these women has de
ing the increased chances Of immunity from disease.
This is attributed, however, mainly to the fact that
the men seeking such society are taken more notice
OF by the officers of the law. The report also states
that the whole number of cases of private diseases
treated at the hospital and charitable institutions Of
the city, for eight months previous TO the passage of
the Social Evil Law, was $50, and the number
treated in the same Institutions for the eight months
the law has been in operation was only ia, showing
a decrease Of Il per cent?

TIE MURDERER PRETENDs To CONFESS.

After the girls testimony had been taken, on the
same evening Kuheleaumoku the prisoner stated to
the District Justice Of Wailuku, Henry w. Daniels,
Esq, acting as coroner, that he wished to make an
open and full confession of the crime. He was
warned by that official that whatever he said would
be used as evidence against him on the trial, but he
PERSISTED in his wish to confess all that related to the
murder. His statement was accordingly taken down
at length. In it he declares that one kahoaa COM
mittci the murders and the assault ON the girl, and
that he (kuheleaumOku) set fire to the house at
kahoaa's request. The motive for the murder by
kahOaa he said was because the girl kameelehiwa
would not cohabit with him.

CONNECTICUT.
HARTFORD, Jan. 4.-Pending the examna-
ton before the jury of inquest over the Windsor
Locks horror, to-day, a clue was obtained to the
perpetrators OF the deed. 1t appears that, on the
9Th of December, two young men, apparently
French Canadians, and giving the names of
George and Eli Ward Davis, and claiming TO be
brothers, engaged as wood choppers with Han
nibal Wright of North Suffield, NOT far from
where the tragedy occurred. They occupied
small house by themselves, and told the people
Of the neighborhOod that they had mother
and sister living in Washington, Mass. They
borrowed two guns, one an old-fashioned flint
lock, which had been altered over, of Mr..
Wright. On Saturday last they disappeared,
taking the guns with them.
One wore a light overcoat very much worn
on the shoulders, and had on rubber boots The
other was dressed in dark clothes. One is a
little taller than the other. The guns, which
were the weapons used to do the killing, were
found on Wednesday, and one has been identi-
fed as that which Wright owned. The descrip-
ton gwen of the men by those who saw them
leaving the house where the murder was COM
mitted corresponds with that furnished by per-
sons living where these men worked, and there
is no doubt of their identity
1t was also ascertained to-day that the muir
derers, after leaving Windsor Locks, at four
o'clock on Tuesday, went to Tarltfyille, seven
miles distant, and took drinks at Il saloon,
where "a large roll of shnplasters was exhibited,
and inquired of the proprietor the nearest route
TO Buffalo, and following his directions. They
came to this city on the evening train. Nothing
more is known of their movements, though it is
feared they have gone TO Canada and will es-
cane.

DIsGRACEFUL SCENE


New ORLEANS, Jan. An the Legislature
yesterday there vas no quorum of the senate.
In the house Mr.. White introduced a resolution
authorizing the appointment of a committee to
investigate the charges of conspiracy and fraud
against Carr and Devices, and while the ques-
ton was being voted upon Carr moved, in an
excited manner, that the speakers chair be de-
clarcd vacant, and that Harry Waters be elect
ed speaker. A cry of faye" ran through the
house, and thirty or forty members advanced
simultaneously toward the speakers char, but
were checked by the sudden appearance on the
platform of a number of persons who emerged
from the speakers private office. The greatest
excitement prevailed, the reporters leaving
their seats, ard every man in the house rising.
Speaker Carter, stepping from the desk, an
nounced that the action of the house was revo-
lutionary. He called them to order, and order
was finally restored. On the test question the
Warmouthites claim SIX majority against Carter
The Warmouth-Carter cmbrOglio is fast APP
preaching crisis. For three days the house of
representatives has been in state of intense
excitement, the Yarmouth party struggling to
GUST Speaker Carter from his seat, and nearly
every member is armed for fight. The senate
has been without quorum for three days. The
majority will not recognize Iinchbecll as lieu
tenant governor, and Yarmouth threatens TO
issue orders declaring the seats of senators
va'ant who will not attend. He made overtures
to tue democrats that if they would help in his
fight against the other wing of the party he
would give them anything they might ask
They rejected his offer unless he would consent
to resign his office. Such is the report 1t is
expected that tomorrow a bitter and bloody
strife will occur in the house, and perhaps in
the senate. Great excitement prevails.
Ldtef.-The excitement in political circles con.
tinue. After the house adjourned yesterday the
friends OF Yarmouth asserted that speaker Carter
was surrounded by an armed mob. The men,
about fifteen in number, who suddenly ap.
peard yesterday on the platform in rear of the
speakers desk, certainly checked the contem-
plated movement of putting Carter out by force.
To guard against the influence OF such parties,
200 metropolitan police were ordered on duty at
the Mechanics institute, early this morning, and
detachment Of the City Guards are said to be
stationed in supporting distance.
1t Is stated that the adherents Of Carter last
pi gbt called upon Gen, Emory for troops, to be
