NEW YORK.


New York, April 15.-The Times
Washington special says the cases of
Senators Kellogg and Ingalls, will be
heard in committee to-day. In both
cases there is really no reason for a
counter claim, but the payment of
$4,000 to Corbin recently, doubtless
inspired the contests.

committees can report measures based
only upon petitions, numerous bills in

Grand ssasatCsnesrt.

OF al the concerts given in this city
this season thst Of Prot. Shanks, last
evening, was not the least, either In
the consideration Of numbers Of attend
ants or the quality Of the music. The
main audience room Of the First Pres
bytsrian church was almost entirely
filed by the friends of Mr.. Shank.
The church was tastsfully decorated.
Hanging baskets filed with flowers
were suspended from the chandeliers,
while running vines were entwined
around the gas jets. The rostrum was
surmountsd by q handsome piano, at
the feet Of which were many beautiful
exotics. Prof. Shank acted as musical
director, while William Parry presided
at the organ.
A number of selections were sung
by the choir, conspicuous in which
were Miss Currinder, Crumlish, Till
man and Hirst, and Messrs. Helm,
Kavanaugh, Braunstein and Walter.
The performance upon the piano by
Misses Braunstein and Brsen and Mr..
Shank was good, especially was this
true in the piano duo, "Trovotore, :"
by. Miss Breen and Mr.. Shank. Mr..
John Griner rendered two violin solos
with piano accompaniment by Professor
The chief attraction upon the pro
gramme was the tenor solos by Mr.. 5.
+. Osbourn. At the conclusion Of the
solo "Non-e'-ver," the applause be
came 50 loud and prolonged that Mr.
Q. was compelled to re-appear and re,

A story Of " estern Retributis len.

In Todd county, Minn., last spring,
q family named Coldale settled in the
town Of Ward. John and Michael
Waldo, bachelors, were near neighbors.
In very short time John Waldo sue
ceedsd in alternating the affections Of
Coldale's wife and induced her to come
and live with him. A few days age
Walde's house was burned, it is sup.
posed, by the women of the neighbor.
hood, they hoping thereby to terminate
the scandalous performance in their
midst. Waldo laid the crime to Col
dale, whom he knew was his bitter en-.
emy and made threats that he would
shoot him. Another man, whose name
is not learned, was living with Coldale,
and few days after Walde's house was
burned they were missing. Investiga.
tion revealed the strongest evidence
that they had been murdered. Both
the Waldes were arrested and, one Of
them having confessed to the crime,
both were taken from the jail and
lynched.

CURRIE, the Ohio man who is isunjustly
deprived of his liberty at Marshall, Tex
as, for numbering the actor, Porter, some
months since, and who is at present I'M
dergoing his trial there for that bit of
waggishness, is having everythingdone to
get him out of the difficulty without a
fracture of his neck or his standing in
society. As he has well-to-do relatives in
this vicinity and in Arkansas who will
use money freely, and as it has not been
shown that he stole horse, the chances
of his being happy yet seem reasonably
good to a looker-on outside of Texas.

20n.Onn MILITIA.

The annual report OF General Benet,
Chief Of Ordnance of the Regular Army,
was made some little time ago, and has
since attracted the attention to a consid-
cradle extent of the press, by reason of
recommendation embraced in it that the
Government organize a militia force of
100000 men, to be officered and drilled
by West Pointers. We are glad to see
that the more thoughtful journals of the
country are generally opposed to the
adoption of General Benet's suggestion.
Not but that such system would afford
us the nucleus of very efficient
army corps that could be mobil-
lied in a sudden emergency and
prove irresistible for aggressive or defen-
sive warfare. But against whom are we
to use such force? Our policy, both for
eign and domestic, is, and should contin-
ue, pesceable, except in the matter of In
dams when they raid our frontiers. For
these our present army ought to suffice.
1t is true that this consists of only about
10000 enlisted men for actual service,
after deducting those detailed for special
duty. Still they manage to uphold the
dignity of the Government at pinch,
and it is well to remember that if we had
too large an idle army there is always q
temptation to put hypothetical chips on
the National shoulder for some neighbor-
ing power to knock off; and such chips
invariably get knocked off whenever there
is any territory or property we particu
larly covet lying around loose in the
vicinity.
Recent European dispatches announce
that the Austrian and Hungarian Gov
ernments have agreed to maintain an eff
fective military force of 1000 men fol
the next ten years, and, as an excuse fo
this demand upon the people, they hav
compiled statement showing that whel
the European military system, now il
progress, shall be complete, Italy will hav
1000, 900 soldiers, that France has nov
1876, 900 and soon will have 2,723,00O
that Russia has now 1888, 900 and Gel
many 1,194,000.
Let us reflect for moment over tn
maintenance of a military force in thoS
: countries in period Of profound peace
0 as great in proportion to population, O
!, greater even. than we were forced to rails
:, during our late civil war, and imagin
d the result upon the industries of the PEE
d pie. Imagine Furthermore the financif
d drain that such costly ornament nece
r states, and we feel assured that Gener.
e Benets innocent looking cat will be pc
e mitted to slumber for a while yet undi
lr turbed in its meal tub, or at least, unit
n the neighboring mice become sufficient
l. troublesome to justify our regular en-
ployment of tabby.
