} serve their country at very reasonable prices.
Extra session prospects did not seem to be
frightening and the faithful are not exactly
happy.
The disappearance OF Act No. 81, the bin
Producing the fees Of the Criminal Sheriff and
IClerks Of the Criminal Courts, is not so mys-
terious as il at first glance appeared.
As previously related, it was a copy of the
|originai that disappeared, but Demas, the
Chairman of the Earolling Committee, knew
no better; he thought be had the correct doe
ument
1t was simply preliminary step to pro-
posed bleeding operation.
1t lay with Demas to say whether or not
the bill would be found, and it depended on
the amount that Demas could extort from
the officers interested whether or not it did
turn up.
Demas however, made mistake The
original bill is all right, and it is simply a
copy that is wanting.
The General Appropriation Bill.
1t is understood among the faithful that al
the little differences have been settled and
that Kellogg has the bill that has been fixed
and agreed upon, and will sign it as soon as
Antoine arrives in the city and atfixes his sig
nature.
Antoine is expected to be on hand to-
night, and it is probable that the bill will
be promulgated on Tuesday next.

! tits understood that Clinton is not satisfied,
and that he will "make kick in the courts.
The Crowd, however, are not at all alarmed
Clinton's little games are too well known, and
they promise 'him if he proves refractory an
investigation with few Democrats the

him sick.
The Last Purse.
Many conflicting rumors are VOW rife at
the Central Station and in local political cir
cles as to the appointment of the next Chief
of Police. Many aspirants are in the field
for the position, be it lucrative or not. Bray,
Loan and I.awler are running four-mile
heat and, from the present aspect of affairs
and the muddy condition of the wire pulling
track, it is hard to say which horse will win.
Sometimes they are head and head then one
jumps about half length ahead when sud
denly the hindmost make big squirt and
they are all punched.
| The betters in the stand are offering two to
one in favor of Loan. while some outsiders
take freely on the field. Bray being Of good
bottom, and we'll sired and damned, may
perhaps close in on the sorre horse Loan,
and eventually win the race, while others say
that money will carry the race as the jockeys
are very prone to receive little of the purse

Something Rich.
The case filed in the Sixth District Court
by Representative Vaughn, against Generals
De Trobriand, Sheridan, Emory and Camp
bell, for damages for removing them from
their seats on January last, in the State
House. Application was made, shortly after
the case was brought, to remove the case TO
the United States Circuit Court, as, under the
Federal statutes, that tribunal had iurisdc-
ton.
No answer had been filed when this appli-
cation to remove was made but now il
transpires that Gen. Emory, in view of his
removal to another district has prepared a
full and explicit response to the lnterroga-
tories propounded to him concerning the
whole action of January t. and the same is
now in the hands of United States District
Attorney Beckwith. AS the transcript of the
case in the Sixth District Court has not reach
ed the Federal Court, this interesting docu-
ment has not yet been placed on record. 1t
promises to be a treat.
