THE Improvements made in various parts
of the town, by the Street Committee, in
opening the cutters, proved their decided
value on Monday last. The water ran off to
the creeks about as fast as it fell, and left
the streets in a condition to dry, within few
hours after the storm passed over.

doubt prevented quite a serious conhagra

Mr.. Allison, of Iowa, is a fine
looking, youngish, courteous man,
of different type from the earnest
and thoughtful Wright, but, we
hope, not unworthy to be his col
league. Mitchell, of Oregon, is
Senator of manly presence. Wad-
leigh, of New Hampshire, is goodly
to look upon, if one likes a good deal
of Wadleigh. Jones, of Nevada, is
of figure rotund, and of countenance
robust and ruddy. Oglesby, of Hin
ois, is somewhat after the same type,
his round face beaming with good
humor and good health. Sargent,
of California, has pleasant whole
some face; wholesome" speaking
of a Congressional countenance,
means a good deal. McCreary, of
Kentucky, has returned to US as
good as new-his tonsure no greater
in area than of old, his heavy fringe
of hair having lost none of its mys-
tereous blackness. He, also, is
stout; indeed, with its new members
the Senate has decidedly gained in
avoirdupois. Mr.. Boutwell, looks al
ready quite at home in his new
sphere. On the occasion of his be,
ing sworn in, an enthusiastic friend
said to me; How pleasant it is to
see such man take his place in this
chamber man so able and so
honest" 1 did not dissent, but 1
thought it little odd that the ad-
vent of honesty and ability in the
United States Senate should be hail
ed as a great and joyful event. Mr.
Boutwell, is seated on the extreme
left of the Vice President, whose va
Gated chair just in front of Mr.. Sum
ner's, he should have had. Mr..
Ames, of Missippi, secured that, and
holds ON to it; so the distinguished
Massachusetts Senators are widely
separated. Mr.. Ames is nice young
man, with nice father-in-law, but
we seldom hear anything from his
lips beyond aye and mo- Doubtless
he could make nice speeches, but he
don't. He is one of the exasperat-
ing sort of birds that can sing, but
won't sing, and can't be made to
sing. Mr.. Boutwell, would sing and
soar, and soaring sing, and we would
like to see assigned to him the i'm
memorial Massachusetts perch
though, for that matter, Massachu-
sets has about as much stock in Mr.
Ames as Mississippi. Mr.. Wilson
appears thoroughly comfortable in
the high chair, and beams around
on the Chamber ruddy benediction.
He has a somewhat more serious
aspect than he wore during the last
session-has lost little of the in
genious, well-pleased expression, the
"Lickled look" as an irreverent Oh
server called it, that passed into his
face with his nomination, and held
possession until the cares and dig
mites of his elevated estate came
npOn him in earnest.

Forthooming Roval MARRIAGE.

1t is very generally rumored,
writes the London correspondent OF
the Swiss Times, though as yet Lon
don papers keep silence on the mat
ter, that the Duke of Edinburgh is
to be married to the Cars only
daughter. The Grand Duchess
Marie WAS born October 5, IS53,and
is the fourth child Of the Emperor
Alexander and the Empress Maria
(aunt by marriage to the Princess
Alice of Great Britain. The Prin-
cess is said to be a most accom-
plished linquist, and it is under
stood that she will inherit the whole
of her mothers snbstan al private
fortune. A statement has been
made to the effect that the Duke of
Edinburgh and Mr. Gladstone have
already had an interview with regard
to the addition of his income which
his Royal Highness will require on
his marriage. Nothing is said with
regard to the religious difficulty.
True, adds the correspondent, the
Greek Church consigns to never
ending torture all persons who do
not confess her creed, nor belong to
her communion, and the Grand
Duches Maria will have the satisfac-
lion of knowing that her husband
Of the report of the marriage is well
founded will, according to her her
editary faith be doomed to everlast-
ing agony. But this Is not likely to
make any difference.

Miscegenationists at the inaugural
HalI

Miscegenationists at the inaugural
Ball.
The Washington correspondent
OF the Paterson Press, in a sprightly
letter, gives the following gossip
about the inaugural ball:
"There was the exceeding dark
Representative in Congress from
far Southern State, in irreproachable
evening costume, and with him
quadroon woman-his wife, heard.
Her features were regular and fine,
her figure graceful and well poised,
her complexion scarcely darker than
a Spaniard'e; yet we were told she
had been slave. And, again, there
appeared a white man of pure Anglo
Saxon type, blonde of hair and
beard, ,escorting two colored damsels,
one of whom, report said, ne was en-
gagged to marry. Stopping while
in one of the dressing-rooms we
noted the alaerity with which the
sable dressing maids turned after
performing their duties toward the
fair beauties of the ball to render q
similar service to Otheir darkers sisters
buttOning their delicate kids, and
adjusting their silken trains with
like care. Perhaps, if l had been
native and to the manner born,' l
should have felt spice of the indig-
nation that tinged my companions
cheeks; bat being merely ''looker-
on in Vienna, / viewed the entire
scene with amused surprise. Still,
leaving the graver political prob
lens of the day for wiser heads to
solve, we must ques tion at least the
good taste or expediency Of this
mingling of races on terms of so cial
equality.

The Racing Season = Forthcoming
Racing Events


Ifany sport can be called Ameri-
can, that sport is trotting. In
France the trot as a horse-pace is
comparatively unknown except in
the cavalry menage. In Great Brit
ain for years it was confined to caval-
ry, and to the studs of some of the
old Irish families, who bred and
raised their totters for saddle pur-
poses. OF late trotting has excited
some interest at London, Birming-
ham, and Liverpool. But running,
or, as the English say, racing, is the
sport not only of the gentles, but of
the whole English people. While
American example is gradually rec
ommending the trot to France and
England, in turn the race-horse has
been nationalized among US. This
unity Of sports, like unity IN litera-
ture and III ancestry, tends TO make
Americans and Britishers more than
ever one people Those who think
that Americans are not rapidly fol

English cousins are referred the fol

They who know the least are apt
to say the most. A county conven-
ton in Ohio, called to select dele
gate to the Constitutional Conven-
tion, passed a resolution censurlng
the Hon. j. A. Garfield for support
ing what it calls the "salary swim
de-"
Had the members known the facts
they would probably have compli-
mented their Representative. Mr..
Garfield earnestly opposed the sala-
rv amendment both in his speeches
and in his votes, and did all in his
power to prevent the fastening of it
upon the legislative appropriation
bill. The bills passed the House in
January, after days of debate, with
out the salary clause, and returned
from the Senate late in February,
with nearly one hundred amend
ments. 1t came up in the House
February "a, and not until March 1,
after further discussion, was the
salary amendment added, Mr.. Gar
field voting no. During this period
the House voted as many as thirteen
times, directly or indirectly, on the
question, Mr.. Garfield voting every
time, no. On Sunday morning, for
ty-eight hours before adjournment,
the bill went to a conference com
mittee. In this committee Mr.. Gar
field opposed the salary clause, and
was voted down. In making the re-
port, he so stated, and said that he
now sustained the bill, because if it
vas defeated an extra session of
Congress must be called. 1t is easy
to see that an extra session would
have cost far more than the back
payments amount to, and that it is
very doubtful if the new Congress
would have raised the salary for it.

did not Mr.. Garfield oppose the sal
