WASHINGTON, Dec. Ex-senator COnklngs ap'
pontment to-day to place on the Committee OF
Seven in the place of Gen. Logan, who has resigned
seems to give almost universal satisfaction. lie has
carefully avoided committing himself TO any of the
questions at issue, and is believed to be in such
judicial frame of mind that the Democrats are
pleased with his selection, while he still retains the
confidence of the Republicans. 1t has more than
once been suggested to-day that he may after all be
the man who will devise plan of adjustment OF the
present misunderstanding between the two houses
that will be accepted by both. The appointment
has the somewhat curious result of giving direct
representation on the committee to each State
which furnished Presidential or Vice-Presidental
candidate in the late election. Thus New-York the
home of Messrs. Tilden, Wheeler, and Cooper, is
represented Oh the committee by Mr.. Conkling; +;
Gov. Hayes's and Gen. Carys State is represented
by Judge Thurman, and Gov. Hendricks citizen
of Indiana is in a certain represented Oh the

WHISKY WoUNDED.-One evening
last week VIM. DAVE made a brutal
assault upon his wife; first beating
and kicking her shamefuIly, and finally
inhicting upon her several severe
gashes about the thigh and abdomen
with knife. Dave wanted his wife
to 60 with him to the Catholic ball;
she being indisposed, refused, when
the devil in him, infamed by drink,
began his work with blows and kicks.
and ended by employing a knife.
Alarm being given, a gentlemen, who
was already on a bond Of Dawes to
keep the peace, came to the rescues
and he was soon lodged in Jail, and
there yet remains.
It would seem about time chat
something effective were done for re-
straining this dangerous man. Time
and again he has been arrested in SINH
lar work, and escaped with light punish
ment. Though it be true that when
out of liquor Dave is "good fellow. y
that fact should weigh but little, as he
is SO frequently "in liquor as to
make safety of very uncertain dur
alton when he is unrestrained.-Min'

all respects, first-class.
The Choir is under the leadership of
Mr.. Jaqua, splendid singer. The mum.
Der of singers present were nine. There
were only three pieces sung by the full
choir, the programme consisting mainly of
solos, duets and quartets. After the
opening anthem, the song, "The happicst
time is now was given by Prof. S. I.
Osborne, VIM. Osborne, ard w. Wasley
in fine style. followed by the bass song,
Friend of the Brave, sung by Professor

ed Miss Annie Osborne to be possessed of a
clear, highly cultivated and pleasing voice.
But the star of the occasion, was Prof.
Osborne. His bass solo, MY Father
Half Bushel,' was one of the best things
we ever heard, and in our opinion, as q
bass singer, he is without peer in the
State. We have not room to speak of
every piece: but as a whole, we think the
entertainment was one of the best ever
given in Monroe and feel like congratulate
ing the Mineral Point people upon the
good fortune of having in their midst so
fine company of singers. At the close
of the concert reception was given the
choir at the NJ. E. Parsonage, which was
kept up till quite late hour where &C.
quaintances were made and ties of friend

panying the Choir from Mineral Point,
were Rev. G. Bushby, wife and daughter,
Miss Jeffrey, Mrs. Jaqua, and Miss Rob-

much pleased with Monroe, its people, and
