THE BENEFITS OF A CLOSE VoTE IN THE
HousE.-The country is to he congratulated, 10
the opinion Of the Washington Star, that the
even balance of parties in the next House of
Representatives will tend to break up absen-
teeism. Last season, owing 10 the large ma
jorily Of the dorninent party, both Democrats
and Republicans absented themselves, seeming
to think that their presence would not afec,
the result of votes on legislative measures. and
in consequence there WINS scarcely day OF The
session when more than two-thirds of the
members were present.

Boss Shepherds Downfall.

We cannot say we much surprised to
hear of the failure of this notorious individual;
we expected just such finale to the acts OF
the bold, daring ringeader of Washington,
the bosom irienc of Grant, subsidizer Of the
press, gas plamber, &c. We naturally expected
TINT the honest boss Tilden would crush out
Shepherd along with The other corrnptionists
that infest the country; but we must admit
our surprise that il should have followed SO
close onto the announcement of Mr.. Tilden's
election. Perhaps he had calculated, in case
of Hayes succession to the presidency, 10 still
work in the ring and carry on his business OF
pluuderer in conjunction with that of gas-htter
and plumber. and contracted largely with that
expectation, but the announcement of the sue
cess fthe great ieformer caused him to take
tumble, as the vulgar say. Or, perhaps,
has been hnted, his large bet (some say
$50, 900 or S6O,O00) that Hayes would be
elected, had something TO do with ii.
This Hals-ed indiv dual, who, previous to
the advent Of Grantism was a comparative
poor man, with a small gas-htting establish
ment on Pennsylvania avenue has since be-
come, as was supposed, the silent partner in
several newspapers, pussessor Of large ana nu-
merous houses, the friend in adversely of ring
thieves, and the genius loci and major domo to
all visiting boat racers and rife teams But
we have confidently expected, sooner or later,
10 see the Boss go up high as his last ven
tnre in government jobbery at the corner Of
Pennsylvania avenue aud Twelfth street.
The Cumberland Ntrs in an article in a
late issue, in substance says; As the reports
of Mr.. McComas' majoriles came in from the
several counties in this congressional district,
Montgomery county would increase her ma
iorites for Mr.. Walsh accordingly gliding
scale, as it were, 10 overbalance McComas'
majorities." Now, this assertion is base
fabrication, and without any foundation In
fact as is well known by every member of both
parties, and we feel Just resentment against
such malieousness, which we shall always in-
dulge when such Islander is heaned upon our
feilow-countymen.
The vote was never changed but once, as
both parties know, and that was when
it was recounted by some of Mr.. McComas,
friends, and resulted in gain of two for his
opponent. This insinuation of fraud reflects
alike upon the good character of tie Demo-
Gratis of this county and the good sense of the
Republicans.

SYMPATHETIC.--ltis reported that Mr. HAYES,
when be 6rst supposed himself to be defeated
said that the principal subject of regret was
the probable treatment of ''the poor colored
people" After their experience in the Freed
mems Bank ard the general robbery of the
States in which they mostly live, the 'poor
colored people, are certainly entitled TO SYM
pathy, but whethe: the reinstatement in power
of the party by whom they were plundered
is likely to afford them relief would seem TO
depend upon the question whether they have
anything LEFT in their pockets TO be relieved

The proposition to place the counting Of the
votes under the supervision Of honorable men
of both parties from distance meets the cor
dial appreciation of the entire community.
Should the returning board, in the face of
the evidence that can be presented throw out
the several parishes contemplated, the Demo-
cratic majority will still remain 1900. 1t is
not thought possible that they can figure out
a republican majority by any manipulation of

MYSTERIOUS SPANISH GIRL Two or three
days ago Overseer Of the Poor Harlan saw
loungiDg about the streets Young Spanish
girl not more than sixteen, with dark com
plexion and good face, her associates being
negroes. He instituted inquiries and found
that she was from Charlottesville. He took
her in custody by direction Of Mayor Balths,
to be returned to that town. In the mean
time two or three negro men " no had been as
sociating with her appeared and claimed that
she was their ''cousiu," and employed coun-
sci to obtain her release. The giil speaks
very little English, aud Mr. l.. Eiscman, who
conversed with her, found that she spoke the
mixed French and S9anish spoken on the
frontier OF those two countries. She says that
she was first brought TO this country by her
fathers clerk from Spain, and afterward went
back home and again returned. She was
taken TO Charlottesville by man named Pat
erson and put 10 school at Mr. Harris. She
rcnds and writes English. but speaks it so
brokenly that she cannot be understood She
knows the names of all the prominent ci,i-
zens of Charlottesville. She denies being any
relation of the negroes who sought her release
Mr.. X. l.. Larew, of the committee on the
poor, made arrangements 10 return her to
Charlottesville, but Wednesday evening, hav-
ing heen permitted by Mr.. Harlan TO visit a
colored family that claimed to know some
thing of her, she disappeared. --Stdunton

ATTEMPTED SUICIDE OF AN AcTREss. About
10 O'Clock last night great excitement was
produced in the centre of the city, caused by
the report thai female had aatempted suicide
by shooting herself nj the "Odeon,' on South
Frederick street. A visit TO the theatrical
establishment discovered the woman extended
on IA lounge at the rear of the bar, attended
by Emanuel Casine the proprietor The
latter stated that woman, who was not a
resident of the city, had tainted in front OF
the Odeon, and had been brought in there for
resusctation. Subsequent inquiries however,
developed the fact that Maggie Gray, vocalist
Of some prominence, who had recently been
engaged at the New Central threatrea chad at
tempted suicide. 1t appears that about the
hour mentioned the woman, who is about
twenty-seven years of age, approached the
northeast corner Of Frederick and Baltimore
streets in an apparently intoxicated condition
A pistolshot was heard, and she was observed
to stagger and fall to the pavement in front
Of the Odeon, into which place she WAS at
once removed. A gentleman present endeav-
ored TO ascertained The extent and character
of the wound, and discovered blood about
her waist She objected to further examina-
ton, and said : "Everything | have goes 10
my mother send for DOCTOR"
Pr. Wolfe and DR.. G. NJ. Morit were sum-
moned and found pistol wound on the right
hip, The ball bad taken a downward course
and lodged in the tissues. She WAS removed
to Cozne's hotel, corner of Frederick and
Fayctte streets. DR.. Morft states tha: the
wound is not necessarily fatal, and the exact
result cannot be asctrtaine5 for day or two
The attempted suicide tits said, was prompted
by jealousy. The injured woman, who has
recently been performing at the concert halls
in Baltimore, formed the acquaintance of a
young man, with whom she had been on
terms OF intimacy. She left the city recently
for u short engagement sand upon returning
found his affections otherwise engaged. This
discovery, it is said, induced the attempt Of
seli-destructon .--Bdito. Gazette IAN.
