THE Hon. A. N. Waddell, of North Caro-
lima, will deliver his lecture on America before
Columbus" at Lincoln hall, on the evening of
March o. This lecture is given in response to
aniuvitation from Senators Sumner, Sherman,
Thurman and other distinguished persons.
Those who have heard It pronounce it re-
markablc for historic research, presented in a
most attractive form, awakening the interest Of
the nearer, and holding his attention to the
end. The subject is q novel one, and will
doubtless draw together large audience, and
we predict for them a great intellectual treat.

THE name Of the Hon. c. P. Ramsdell was
to-day sent to the Senate for confirmation as
United States marshal for the Eastern district
of Virginia. Mr.. Ramsdell was the Republi-

THERE is now pending before Congress bill
appropriating one hundred thousand dollars
for the purpose OF making needed Improvement
in that section OF the West known - the Vel
lowstonc National Park, and set apart by act Of
Congress for park purposes. Up TO the present
time not one dollar has besn expended in either
protecting or Improving this splendid specimen
Of the natural resources, mineral and other
wise, of the country; but, on the contrary, the
gentleman who has acted - superintendent for
two years did 20 without salary or compensa-

THE exchequer bill introduced to the House
of Representatives by Hon. James H. Plat, Of
Virginia, is gaining many adherents in that
State. Our Richmond letter, in another COL
umn, gives an account of large meeting held
in the State capitol, which was addressed by
Mr.. Plat, AMI resolutions adopted strongly
indorsing the system. 1t is expected that these
or similar resolutions will be adopted by the
Legislature of Virginia at an early day, re-
questing the Representatives and Senators in
Congress from that State to support and advo-
cate Mr.. Platt's bill. This measure has many
attractive features, and il the present national
banking system is to be abolished, the ex-
chequer may be the most proper thing to sue
coed it.

RUSSELL EIRETT, the editor Of the Pittsburg
Commercial, says: "The names Of many dis
tinguished gentlemen have been presented as
candidates for the Republican nomination for
Lieutenant Governor, and among them is the
name of Hon. A. G. Olmstead, Of Potter. Mr..
Olmstead has had . great deal of Legislative
experience, has been Speaker of the House,
and presides with great deal of dignity, ur-
banity and fairness. His geniality, courtesy
and ability made him very popular with his
legislative colleagues, and the State will be
fortunate If it secures his services in that i'm
portant place"
Mr.. Olmstead may be all right and . very
good man, but Errett is not a good authority
upon that or any other subject.

WHAT is the secret bond which 30 closely
unites the Sergeant-at-Arms of the Senate Of
the United States and his carpenter or cabinet
maker that the former does not reprore him
or discharge him upon evidence of the grossest
and most immoral practices in the committee
rooms of the senatei The foregoing question
was propounded in our hearing few days ago,
and the answer was thst this employee, and
one or two others, were the custodians Of Sc
crets or faets-for they are no longer secrets
which it was not for the interest Of the Ser.
gcant-at-Arms to have made public. What
does this carpenter-cabinetmaker dol Is pos
siblc that his services are of such moment to
the Senate or the country that he can turn the
Senate Hall into brothel, and make its COM
mittec-rooms the scenes of his drunken ORGIES
without reproof or dismissali Senator's viii,
no doubt, look into this matter, ard inquire
why notice has not been taken Of and action
had upon the complaints lodged.

Mr.. GEO. ALFRED TOWNSEND, of the Chi
cago Tribune, who has lived here for the last
eight years, and written moro concerning
Washington-its past and present and future
than any other journalist in the country con-
nected with the outside press, became involved
in personal encounter yesterday with Q COM
parative stranger, one Walker, who came here
only few weeks ago as the correspondent Of
the Chicago Times. This man Walker made
certain grave charges against Mr.. Townsend,
for which he properly chastised him. We do
not agree with "Gath" politically; in fact, we
have had again and again occasion to condemn
him as one of the GO independent journalists !"
but his personal honor and character have al
ways been above suspicion, and his resentment
of the unjust assault upon him will be ap-
proved by everybody, without distinction of
party.
