Bosros, March 29.-Jetferson Davis in an
interview says: 1.-THE War OF the Rebellion was
one of those things which was sure to come IN
the progress of events, and in solving great
problems of government upon this continent.
BE accepted the a1bitrament OF the sword,
He was very hopeful Of the future
of the country. The only disturb

the efforts OF extremists upon both sides to
keep alive the anitnosities and hatreds OF the
past. II Congress would pursue moderate

country ali great social and industrial questions
which were now the source OF so much conten-

MILWAUKEE, March 29.-The annual spring
election which is to take place on Tuesday next,
creates but little stir in the city at large. Here
and there local strife for preference at the cau-
cuses, among aspirauts for political perferment,
has caused thorough drumming OF beer-saloon
hangers-on, with full attendance at the nomt-
mating meetings, but the sober aud Industrious
resident voters could not be lured from comfort
able homes even by the most urgent appeals
Of woud-be candidates. Cases Of this kind
arc very rare though. In most OF the wards
great difficulty is experienced In finding candl-
dates for the responsible positions OF Alderman
aud Supervisor. Pot-house politicians are not
wanted, and business men refuse to accept. Inc
latter do not care to sacrifice valuable time IN
the performance OF service thar is rarely 1t ever
appreciated even by their constituents, and may
subject them to sharp criticism, II not
personal abuse, at the hands Of ire
sponsible scrbbers for the daily press 10
this feeling OF Indifference, more than anything
else Is to be attributed the lack OF interest," "1tn

served throughout the city. Another reason Is
the fact that many voters who bave not taken
the pains to inform themselves labor under the

and still another reason lies in the total lack Of

CINCINNATI, O., March 29.-The action of the
Democratic State Central Committee at colum-
bus last night has been the talk Of politicians
to-day. The debate on time and place Of hold
ing the Convention lasted from early IN the
afternoon till nearly midnight, the latter Fart
OF it being held with closed doors. The final
decision in favor Of Columbus as against Gin
c.nnati, aud June against an earlier date, IS
generally Interpreted to mean fusion with the
Nationals, but whether 10 the interest Of Gen.
Tom Ewing or Gen. Rice is matter about
which there Is difference Of opinion.
The Greenbacscrs are made masters OF
the situation, and It will probably
be left for them to decide. 1t is the opinion OF
the Democrats that the result OF the conference
Is fatal to the hopes of Gov. Bishop Gov.
Bishop, however, declines to take this view Of
the case. and in an interview to-day stated that
he was confident he would be nominated IN spite
Of his enemies. He was willing to leave q
couple OF blanks in the ticket to be filed by
Nationals,--as, for instance, State Auditor and
| member of the Board of Public Works, Offices
| now filed bT Republicans, but as to concedng
to them the head Of the ticket twas prcpos'
ferrous, and he knew the Democrats would never
think OF it.
Nearly the whole debate in last nights confer

THE FREo1OhSi.
TO tie Western Associated Press.
WAsH1NGrov, D. c.. March 29.-The point
raised Yesterday by Mr. Reagan that there were
no rules governing the House (none having been
formally adopted) was discussed at length. The
Speaker said that under Rule 147, the rules OF
the preceding House were the rules OF every
succeeding House until otherwise ordered, and
quoted the ruling OF Speaker Grow to that
ef1ect.
The House then went into Committee OF the
Whole On the Army Appropriation bill, Mr..
Springer in the chair.
Mr.. Stephens argued that public sentiment,
NorA and South. was against the employment
OF trdAps at the poll.. There was no need OF
such thing. The country had rot along With
cut 1t for three-QuArters Of century. There
would be no harm done, therefore, By u repeal
Of the Law.
The Chairman finally overruled the point
raised by Mr.. Reagan, and held that the sec
ton was germane.
An appeal was taken and the decision VAS
sustatned-125 to 107.
The general discussion was then opened by
MIR. Garfield. the agreement being that no vote
should be taken to-day.
MR.. GARFIELD
argued against the policy OF the Demo-
cratic party in Congress, declaring 1t to be
utterly revolutionary and tending to the sub
version OF the Government. The pending propo-
sition was the simplest and most inotfensiye; !;

CHICAGO, March 29.-ln the apparent over
shadowing importance attached to the four
prominent Offices of the city to be filled at the
coming election, sight has been lost OF one of
the most important offices to be filled In the
Town OF South Chicago. I refer TO that Of
Assessor. The merchant with his large or
small capital, the manufacturer with his large
or limited means, the rcal-estate owner-men in
general business,-aI are at his mercy.
4 vital interest is at stake, and the selection
of an honest, upright Assessor is OF the utmost
Importance, one who will surround himself
with honest, capable assistants in the discharge
Of his duries.-and such an one is found i'll the
person of Frank Drake, gentleman Of mature
age, established character, business capacity,

WASHINGTON, D. c., March 29.-The news
from Columbus shows the effect Of the consulta-
tion OF the Ohio delegation here IN regard to the
plans for capturing the Grccnback rote Of that
State at the fall elections The decision TO call
the State Democratic Convention on the same
dar that the Grcenback men should decide to
meet and at the same place, was made here in
meeting Ut Ohio Democratic Congressman, to
which few outside managers were admitted.
In the consultation which. took place it
WAS freely admitted, and denied by none,
that the Democrats could not hope
to win in the election without the Greenback-
ers, and that 1t was an absolute party necessity
to CAPTURE them. To this end 1t was resolved
to leave nothing undone that promised success
in that direction, and that as first step, the
State Committee should be made acquainted
with the views entertained here, and given to
understand that they
MUST FIX THE T1ME
and place Of their Convention SO IS to coincide
with that Of the Nationals. john Thompson
conveyed this instruction. It wns agreed that
the platform adopted at the Convention must
have financial plank rotten enough aud soft
enough to satisfy the Greenback men, with
out regard to tile objection which Eastern Dem
ocrats might make Oil account OF the possible
bad effects on the party ut the East. 1t was
also agreed that everything that could be de-
yised In the way Of conciliating the Grcenback-
ers in Congress and their constituents should
be done before adjournment even IL 1t was
nothing more than to sa,,d 9iler to 1agoF me me

have manipulated this attempt at capture say

Should it be light, rs now promises to BIT the

A Joyous Occasion.

Tuesday last being the fifth anniver-
sary of the marriage of Maj. and Mrs.
j. W. Wham, quite a number of their
army friends assembled at their resi-
dence, on Eighteenth street, in the
evening, to celebrate their wooden we'd
ding. 1t was an informal gathering,
but a thoroughly delightful one. The
absence of Maj. Wham was regretted
by all, but Mrs. Wham, assisted by her
accomplished sister, Miss Birdie Smith,
entertained their friends most royalty.
The presents received were quite nu-
merous and useful. Among those pres
ent were Mrs. Ferris, Capt. Babcock
and wife, Lieuts. Davis, Augur and
Watts, accompanied by their wives;
Mrs. Weidman and sister, and others
from Fort Russell. Also Maj. and
Mrs. Nash, Mrs. Gilliss, Lieut.. and
Mrs. Reagan from Camp Carlin. Alto
gether it was an enjoyable affair. We
trust the major and his estimable wife
may live to celebrate their golden we'd
ding.
