ALBANY, March 9s.-New York city lcgis-
lation engaged the Senate during the morning
session. The chief bone Of cont ntion was the
bill regulating the work lnlss of the bureau in
the Department of Public Works to which il is
proposed in the omnibus charter to transfer the
duties OF the Dock Department.. Again Sena-
tors Woodin and Norrisaev worked together.
and were as usual successful. II was noticeable
that the chief defender of the useless and cx-
travngant Dock Department was Mr.. Schuon-
maker of Ulster county. The Senators from
New York city. except Mr. Waestan generally
favored the aboli-hing Of that department.
though asking some slight notifications II the
Till. which were agreed to. But all attempts to
save that department. or burden the hin. were
promptly voted down. Mr. Woodin appealed to
the Senators NOT to load the bill and said he saw
in tn" attempts being made to- do -u "a deter
ninntion to defeat all legislation affect M. the
Dock Department. and in fact all the measures
Tor rctrcnchmcut and reform before the Lcsis-

not afford t. do tins.

Mr.. Tilden, who is very abstemious
person at table, was cause of despair to
his cook-an accomplished functonary
who once prepared the majestic meals of
Dom Pedro. Mr.. Dorsheimer, on the
contrary, loves and understands the
charms of good cookery, and whenever be
dined with the governor and particularly
enjoyed some dish he would send his COM
plments and a cOngratulatory message to
the cook. One day Mr. Dorsheimer was
leaving the governors house, when the
cook appeared on the basement steps and
expressed his gratitude for the lieutenant,
governors appreciation. "Ah, Mr.. DORIS
inner" he said plaintively, Il haf cooked
for two great men, the emperor of Brazil
and the governor of New York; and both
Of them want their dinner in the middle o.
the day, and eat him in twenty minutes!
