THE JUDICIARY BILL.

[Shrovesport Times.l
The following is an extract from a
letter received by a gentleman in this
city from friend in Washington:
The United District Court bill, being
of a private rather than a public or
political nature, drags its slow length
along in the House Judiciary committee.
Judge Elan and Gen. King, your po-
iitical friends, have done all they could
to urge it through the committee and
seem hopeful of securing its passage
during this session. Some Of the pa
pers, published in Gen. Kings district,
are complaining at him because, they
say, he has not pushed tho matter
through before this, and they Intimate
that he is luke-warm in his support
of the bill because he knows Repub-
lican judge will be appointed if the bill
becomes a law now. I am sure this
complaint is unfounled, for Gen. King
recognizes fully the Importance of the
Court and knows that his constituency,
without reference to party, want the
court established. know that he has
been and is now sincerely pushing the
measure to an early completion; OF
course he, like all the friends of the bill
from Louisiana, prefers a Democrat
for the judgeship, but this preference
will not hinder his efforts to have the
bill passed. Gen. King is an active,
impartial and very useful Representative
and the Republicans here say that If q
Democrat is to fill his seat in the next
Congress they prefer him to any othe,
Democrat. Form part LIDO not think
the bill will become law at this ses.
sion unless tho Congress extends into
the dog days.

MELANOSIS.


A case Of real melanosis, or pigmen-
tatioD, has occurred at ,Philadelphia.
About two and Il half years ago n boy
was born to John Salter and wife, fair
and handsome, but in a few days he be-
gan to grow dark. At first, his skin
became pale yellow, then deepened to
saffron hue, and gradually changed
till the color of his body was as black
as that of a negro. The once brown
hair grew stiff, and jet black, and the
eyes also grew darker, 80 that the line
between the iris aud the pupils could
not be distinguished. The child's
health also failed, convulsions setting
in, and his life seemed in danger. This
was thirteen months ago. A physician,
who was called, ,ssubdued the spasms,
and then gave his attention to the pc
culiar disease whose nature he recog-
nized. Since then the boy has greatly
improved, and is now of a light chest
nut calor. .......... r... ......l
