Arrival of the City of Mexico -The GraDi Party Safe and WeII-EnIhusI- astic Reception at Galves;on-Gov- ernOr Roberts Refuses to Take Part in the Welcome.
 GALVESTON March 23.-The steamer City of Mexico, having on board General Grant and party, arrived in sight this noon of Gal weston. A signal gun was fired by the Calves ton artillery as soon as the flag was upon the custom house, and in few minutes the city was gay with flags, bunting, etc. The mili- tary companies of the city with the fire de- pertinent and school children repaired to the wharf to join in the reception. The revenue cutter Mclean, having on board the reception committee, Mayor Leonard and 8 correspond ent of the National Associated Press with Tenders Maddox and Estelle, ran out to the steamer and took the party on board, landing them at the wharf at 3 o'clock, all well. The steamer continued on her way to New Or leans. The party consists of General Grant, General Sheridan and Colonel Fred Grant and their wives, Kitty Tiff of Galena, Tillie Mo Herman of Wheeling, J. Byron Andrews of Chicago. On landing a salute was fired by the Galveston artillery and the procession formed After the Mayer had welcomed the guests they proceeded to the Fremont House, where speech making was indulged in. The party receivede en enthusiastic ovation all along the route. On their arrival at the hotel Mayor Leonard made an extended welcome in behalf of the city, and ex-Gov. Pease welcomed the distinguished guests to the State Of Texas. After the speeches the ladies held an informal reception in the parlors. The party do not seem much worn out with their journey. General Grant says they experienced very rough weather, but no worse than he had many times encountered during his recent travels. He expresses great surprise at the excitement and anxiety over the slight delay of the steamer. He says the ladies of the party stood the trip well, but all express the highest qualification at their safe arrival. Their future movements are not fully deter mined upon, as the local committee have not had an opportunity for full conference with the distinguished guests. grand banquet will be given to morrow night at the Fremont House with plates for seventy five guests, and if the party can remain an oyster roast on Bay Shore will follow the next day. All the railroads wifi run excursion trains into the city and large numbers of strangers are here from all parts of the State. There is consid- erable indignation at the action of Governor Roberts in refusing to take part In ths vel come.

An Insane Fathers Last Freak.

Am Insane Fathers Last Freak.
 MARSHALL, Texas, March 23.-This city was startled yesterday by the intelligence that Frank Lewis, of the late mercantile firm of H. F. Lewis Co.,, and proprietor of board ing-house near the general railroad office in this city, had poisoned his son, 12 years old, and gone into the cemetery and taken deadly dose himself The boy died in bed soon after the discovery vas made. The unfortunate father, when found, about six o'clock, was lying prostrate by the grave of his recently deceased wife. He was alive, but in the agonies of death. Prompt aid was given, and powerful antidotes were administered, but to no purpose. He died at three o'clock in the afternoon. He was highly respected, but re- gently had exhibited symptoms of insanity, and these acts regarded by many as con- elusive evidence that his mind had become hopelessly unhinged. Lewis left note stating that he was going on journey across the dark river, and wanted his darling boy to accompany him to the better land. The poison -chloral-was administered to the unsuspect- ing child in an orange.

A resolution providing for the appointment of committee of one from each Senatorial district on platform was adopted.

Spread of the Anti-Tilden Feeling.
 WAUGH CHUNK, March 23.-Hon. A. C.. Brosdhead, of this city, and E. P. Williams, of Gathsrlsy, are delegates to the Democratic State convention from this county. They were instructed to use all honorable means to secure the nomination of Tildsn and Hen dricks in the convention. Judge Brosdhead expressed himself freely. He said that there was no question but at the time of his ap- pointment last September the feeling was strong for the old Democratic tick ct, but since the New York election there have arisen very grave doubts ss to the advisability of nominating Tilden. When he went to the State convention he would be governed by circumstances, though he would consider his instructions binding ordinarily. What he would do he could not say. Williams will undoubtedly follow the lead of the Judge st Harrisburg. Herstofore Carbon county has been one of the leading Tilden strong holds, but 1t seems that the leaders are be- coming doubtful. The argument against Tilden Is altogether one of expsdiency. It is not believed he can carry his own State.

I've COnvicts BreaAing Prison.
 NEW YORK, March 23.-The Kings County Penitentiary was the scene of considerable ex- citement yesterday morning, when 1t became known that two convicts had escaped. One was Charles Johnson, 25 years of age, who was arrested two years ago by Officer Dow ney, of the Fourth precinct, Brooklyn, for grand larceny. He was convicted in the Kings County Court of Sessions on September 4, 1878, and sentenced to the psnitentiary for four years and six months. The other was William Conley, 19 years of age, who was ar- rested by Detective Campbell on the charge of larceny from the person. He was convicted on June IT, 1879, and received sentence
 similar to that of Johnson. When sentenced both men were in poor health, and they were finally placed in the hospital Conley had consumption and kept getting worse. The two invalids soon became fast friends and concocted plans to escape. Above the hos pital is 8 store room, the floor of which comes close to and divides the win dow giving light to both apart meuts. When the watchman visited the hospital at twenty minutesof yesterday morning the two invalids were apparently sleeping, but upon returning, an hour later, the beds were empty and their late occupants were nowhere to be found. The watchman gave an alarm immediately, and a search was 1 made of the prison yard and buildings, ] but all to no purpose. It was discovered that the escaped convicts had squeezed their wasted bodies between the window and the ceiling to the store room above. They had then, after considerable difficulty,
 climbed up into one of the towers, the bars to & window of which had been sawed, thence gained the roof of the prison. Then

DEPARTMENT OF JUSTICE.

AN ADDITIONAL TRIBUNAL WANTED.
The necessity for additional provision to aid in
the transaction of the business OF the federal
courts becomes each year more apparent. The
dockets Of the supreme court and the circuit COURTS
in the greater number Of the circuits, are encum-
bered with the constant accession OF cases. In the
former court, and in many instances Of circuit
courts, years intervene before it is prac-
ticable to bring cases to a hearing: The
attorney general recommends the establishment
of an intermediate court of errors and
appeals. 1t is recommended that the number of
judges of the circuit court in each circuit. with the
exception of the second circuit should he increased
by the addition of another Judge; in the second cir
cult that two should be added, and that an inter-
mediate or an appellate court should be formed
circuit judges and the circuit. justices,
and in the event of the absence of either of the
judges the place of the absent judge should be Sun
piled by the Judge of of the district courts in
the circuit Such an appellate court could be safely
invested with large jurisdiction and its decisions
would satisfy many sutors in many cases where ap-
peals would still be allowed to the supreme court,
The expense incurred for this intermediate court
will require very moderate increase OF the appro-
pratons for the expenses of the department of JUS
tice This recommendation is commended to the
careful consideration Of congress- is evident that
delay of justice, in many instances oppressive and
disastrous to suiors now necessarily in the
federal courts, which will in this way be remedied.

THE NAVY.
AN UNExPRNDED BALANCE,

The report of the secretary of the navy exhibits
the satisfactory management of that department
during the last fiscal year. The total expenditures
for the year were $12,916, 939.45, leaving unex-
pended at the close of the year $2,14l, 6e2. %
of the amount of available appropriations. The
June 80, 1881, are $15,O95, O61.4O. and the total
estimates for the next fiscal year, ending June 80,
1882, are 1898, 751.61: The amount drawn

between them is less than 100 miles, The report
Of the secretary of the navy concludes with valua

favorable consideration Of congress.
