80 delegates, representing 10 States,to the

The remainder are to come in on the

81, Louis Election.

ST. LOUIS, April 4-The election to-
day was for one aldermen from each
ward, eight school directors and board
OF thirteen freeholders TO devise a plan
for the separation OF the city from the
county, and framing new city charter,
passed of ivery quietly. Only partial
returns yet in, but enough is known
to indicate the election of majority OF
the Democrats and Independent Demo
crsts as aldermen, and what is known as
the Peoples Freeholders ticket. The
school directors will probably be equally
divided, but the board will continue Re-
publican. The other freeholders ticket
was selected at a joint meeting of the
Democratic and Republican county
Committees politics being entirely ig'
nored in the matter. Four Of tho can.
didates were on both tickets. Politics
did not enter very much into the canvass
There were an unusual number Of inde-
pendent candidates in the field, several Of
whom were elected.

EYening SessiOn.

After discussing the items for the ex-
penses OF the congressional library, botan-
ic gardens, distributing congressional
mails, &c, and after striking out all the
appropriations Tor the government print
ing office, on the grounds that that office
was undergoing investigation and that
provision might be made for it in the
sundry civil appropriation bill, the item
fer the Presidents salary, fixing 1t al
$4,000 a year alter the 4th OF March
1877, was reached and gave rise TO de
bate.
Mr.. O'Brien proposed to omit that pro-
vision until action should be had on the
special bill fixing the Presidents salary
Mr.. Randall remarked that the obJec
tion to that was that that bill might not
receive the Presidents signature and
that therefore 1t should be fixed in the
appropriation bill. He added that the
Democrats owed their seats in tho House
to the popular demand for economy.
Mr.. Holman charged that the highest
point of expenses since 1866 had been
reached IN 1874. when the expenditure
was SlS1 ,OOO'VOu, anu tHaI HhS aPP'' u"
tions for the current fiscal year were
sl79,00O000.
Finally the debate closed. Mr.
O'Brien's amendment was rejected and
the Presidents salary remains fixed in
the bill at $4,000 after the 4th Of March
1877.
The committee then rose after having
disposed OF fourteen pages of the bill
(which contains 81 pages and the House
adjourned.

Danger OF an Overflow.

MEMPHIS, April 4.-The report Of the
City Engineer Of New Orleans in refer.
ence to the overflow is dIscredited by all
here who have paid any attention to the
subject in years past. Unfortunately,
but little is known in reference to the
exact height or other statistics OF floods
previous TO tho establishment OF the sig
nal service, bu. from the fact that the
water at this point IS within
nine inches of the highest water known,
and one inch above the food of 1874.
and ten inches above that of lost August,
coupled with the state of the weather,
ana Lakes, Bayous and Lagoons, as well
As all the tributaricrs bank full, all old
river men concede that we will have a
food equal to any previous one, as the
river ut Cairo is now thirteen inches
higher than last August, ard several
feet higher at st. Louis, and none OF the
volume coming down will be expended
in filing up the ST. Francis, White, Ar
kansas or other riversr and besides the
records show that no decline is ever felt
here until six or seven days after the water
has commenced falling at Cairo. The
bottom opposite the city is flooded back
to Madison. and trains on the Little
Rock road bave been discontinued. Many
persons living in the bottoms have
been compelled to move cut to
the hills. 1t is feared that a
large amount OF stock has been
lost. Planting operations are at a
stand still and the bottom plantations
will suffer heavily in fencing and forage
between Mound City and Marion, Ar
kansa'. Skitfs have been substituted for
hacks in order to carry mails and pas
sengers.
The valve connecting with the syphon
pump on the tow boat j..
n. Kellogg bursted this morning
near Island Thirty-seven, scalding Fred
Hay den, the clerk, to death. Every effort
possible was made by the Captain and
others to rescue him, but they were in
vain. His remains will be brought here
and forwarded to Springfield, Illinois.

the purpose of and time that will be en-
braced in his visit, and the authority un-
der which he is absent from his COM
mand or station. The purpose or object
so recited will be the strict guide Of the
officer during his stay.
General Custar proceeded to say that
the order closed the mouths Of all the
army officers with regard to the abuse
that existed on the frontier. The officers
knew if they sent complaints to Con
gressmen through the Secretary of War
they would be pigeon-holed and the Of
ficers would probably be pigeon holed
too. 1t was generally understood in the
army that the violation of this order
would be apt to cause the officer to lose
his commission. General Custar said he
wss satisfied that the object of the order
was to cover up the doings of the Secre-
tary of War.
