THE NEW SENATE SECRETARY.

Washington, March 25.-The bond Of
Burch, as secretary Of the senate, was APP
proved to-day. He read the journal at the
opening Of the senate, and took formal pos
session of his office. This afternoon he was
fairly overwhelmed with applications for
places. but as democratic senators have
taken upon themselves the grateful task Of
parceling ont the places, Burch refers the
applicants to senator's, and the senators refer
them back to Burch. In this way appli-
cants have temporary employment, without
compensation. 1t is found that nearly
every republican employee has some friendly
democratic senator, who insists that he shall
not be removed. As every other democrat
ic senator has four to six men waiting for
each identical place, there will be confusion
and distressing conflicts Of interests before
it is settled, and probably the usual demo.
cratic row, which comes up ~ a matter Of
course when patronage is TO be distributed.
Colonel Burch is personally very anxiou.
that removals should not be made at once,
but gradually, so that the efficiency Of the
service shall not be disturbed. This after
noon the employees were presented to the
new secretary by the retiring secretary.
Some Of them looked anxious, as if loss
of place was the loss of bread for their fam
lilies. When the stationery clerk was pre-
scented he expressed q desire to continue t.
be stationary. Among the employees is {
union soldier, who had both legs shot off il
battle, and it is deemed the part Of politica
wisdom to retain him, at least until afte
the next election.

ALMOST KILLED, BUT RECOVERING

At Valley Springs, last Thursday, Jap.
Bannister and Marshall Mcconnell was
very seriously injured, and, although they
are now recovering, the wonder is that both
were not killed. They were engaged wall

Mcconnell being at the windlass. The
stone was being let down in a tub made of

this was being lowered, the handle of the

and it struck the rock ON the bottom with

hoops cutting their way right into the stone
for nearly half their width, but leaving
Bannister uninjured. Following the tub.
however, came the windlass, and this struck
him, cutting him severely in the head and
knocking him senseless. The fall of the
windlass was caused by McConnell's bravery.
When the handle broke, precipitating the
tub and its load of stone toward the bottom
of the well, threatening his comrade With
instant destruction, Mcconnell made a Jump

BENEFITS ARCTIC EXPEDITION.

Washington, March 25.-Lieutenant De
Long, Of the navy, who is to command the
steamer jeanette on an exploring expedition
to find the northwest passage 70 the arctic
seas, which has been arranged and will be
supported By James Gordon Bennett, is in
Washington making his final preparations
for the voyage. He will proceed to San Fran.
cisco in . few day., where the vessel is now
lying at the navy yard, and, after replacing
her present machinery with that Of . new
and improved pattern, will sail about the
LIST Of June for Behring's strait. where he
will winter. The expedition was planned
by Mr.. Bennett, Of the New York Herald,
who will pay the entire expenses, but, 10

The secretary Of the treasury has receiv-
ed q confederate bond from T. w. Phillips,
OF North Carolina, accompanied BY the
modest request that it be placed on file to
await expected action On the part Of. con-
gress. Mr.. Phillips says in his letter to
Secretary Sherman:
Enclosed please find $1,000 Zone thou
sand dollars) bond of the Confederate States
Of America, issued in accordance with the
sixth section of an act of the Confederate
congress. Feb. II, 1864. I desire to have
my bond filed for redemption at some future
day. l believe that Z law sooner or later
will be passed making them convertible
into United States bonds. This view is
founded upon the fact that two-thirds of the
present members of senate and house have
been Confederate bondholders. Such q Law
would produce a vast deal Of consolation
among southern people, who have been
made destitute by the war. Ny object in
filing now is to entitle me to the precedence
in time of settlement"
Mr.. Philips is more honest than prudent
in his expressions, but he doubtless reflects
the expectations Of the majority in the
south in his openhearted letter TO the secre-

Washington, March 26.-The; democra-
tic members of the house and senate Assem-
bled in the hall of the house
this afternoon, to take action upon the
joint report of their caucus concerning the
order of business of the extra session. Re.
preventative Clymer presided.
Representative Chalmers, in behalf oil
the house caucus committee, explained the
character of the report and outlined the
discussion of the Joint sessions of the two
committees.
The adoption of the report was also ad.
vocated BY Representative Carlisle and BY
Messrs. Salisbury, voorhees, and Lamar,
all of them being members of the commit.
tees.
Senator Bsyard briefly expressed the
opinion that the proper method of obtain.
ing the repeal of the obnoxious laws arriv.
ed at BY tho joint committees report would
be by the passage Of separate measure or
measures independent of the appropriation
bills.
Representative Turner delivered a speech
of much earnestness, insisting that the fed

MI. VOORHEES, said he had himself been

recommended 10 regard to it is the most
expedient that can be pursued under the
existing circumstances.

SMALL BUsINEss.-It is small busi-
ness in the Republican partizans in the
City Council to attempt so openly TO
embarrass the Democrats in conducting
the affairs Of the city economically.
Men with q modicum Of brains above
that Of children would be above such
conduct. especially when they ought to
know they are too lacking in intelligence
and adroitness to enable them to con-
ceal their designs.
Now, that it is clear to every citizen
that the Democrats in the City Council
are competent, willing and determined
to try to manage the affairs of the city
within tax rate Of $1.l5 or $l.l0 on
the $l00, the Republicans are using
every means they possess to misdirect
and cause extravaganza. They will find
however, that their dishonest policy will
gain them no credit, and that the people
of this city will appreciate the efforts OF
the Democrats.
The latter have carefully avoided tht
errors that were made by their Republi
can predecessors from the Fourth, Fifth
Seventh and Eighth Wards, to who's
scandalOus mismansgement and extrav a
gance is due most Of the. floating debt
which had TO be funded in the last tel

President, and they are interested In
getting the "hard money" out Of the
vaults of the Treasury and into the
vaults OF the banks, instead Of getting
rid OF an amount Of interest paying
bonds with the government specie.
The. may be solid objections to the
passage of the Bsyard resolution but
SO far we think it the least Objectionable
measure that has been offered. 1t may
be unnecessary to pass resolution Of
this kind in the face Of the fact that the
Supreme Court will decide whether q
paper dollar Is legal-tender or not In
very short while. In either case diff
Guilty may arise Is to the law requiring
the banks 10 keep their greenback re-
serves. II this resolution passes, may
the banks not demand Of the govern
ment an amount of coin for reserve
equal to the amount Of greenbacks now
held, in exchange for their notes? To
got the gold coin that 10 in the Treasury
is no doubt one Of the great aims Of the
banks, and It Is the desire Of John Sher-
man to let them have It, and 1t was this
desire only that led the President 10
propose to redeem and cancel the green
backs. The President and his Secreta-
ry were aiming at the same thing and
only differed because they believed Il
better to have two ways than one by
which their object might be reached.
We desire to hear what the opponents Of
the Bayard resolution have to say. So
far but little has been said, except that
il would be wise to let the present con-
dition Of things remain. or course this
proposition by the men who expressed
so much horror Of the ''dollar OF the dad.

will be continued to be coined at the
rate of two to four millions a month II

Ethan Aliens Courage

From "Causerie," by w. A. Hovey
Ethan Allen, whose misfortune it was
to have termagans for a wife, had,
and deserved, a reputation for coura. e
of the leonine kind. Some wags
thought to frighten him once but they
Distook their man. One of them, ar
rayed in a sheet, stepped in front of him
in the road late one dark night when he
was on his way homeward. Ethan
stopped, looked at the spectre, and with
out moments hesitation, exclaimed
''If you come from Heaven, don't feaI
you. If you are the devil, come hone
and spend the night with me-I married
your sister," HIS neighbors never
sought to test his courae. after that
