the Potomac fisheries, and for the preser-
AvatiOn of shad and herring in the Poto-

trust that the bill will come up in the

passed, and with the signature of the Pres
ident, will then become law. This bill
Is necessary if we wish to keep any fish il

Now that it seems TO be pretty we'll set
tied that the Hon. Il. +. TRowBRIDGE is to
be Commissioner of Indian Affairs, the in
quiry has been raised by some of the COM
petinE candidates, "Who is hep" Well, 1t
does not take long to answer this query.
He is n well-known and very reputable cit
izen of Michigan, who represented the old
Fourth Representative district in the Thir-
ty-seventh Congress, where he was a promi-
nent member of the Committee on Post
offices and Post-Ronds He is u thorough
business man, having attained distinction
as merchant, farmer and legislator. The
late Senator CHANDLER, knowing his fine
business qualities and unimpeachable in
tegrity, employed him for the last few
years MS superintendent of his large farm
located near Lansing, the State capital
The idea having been recently broached
that "he, too, is an Ohio man." it may be
well enough just here to prick that fine
bubble by announcing the fact that he was
born in New York and removed to Michi
gan when n small child, in which State h'
has been a citizen ever since. His only re-
lation to Ohio is the fact that he graduated
at Kenyon College i'll 1871.

THE g,,id nuacs have now discovered that
the grand feed given recently at DELMoNI-
co.'s in New York city by Senator JONES, of
Nevada, was really cunningly devised
affair to placate the personal animosties
that have long existed between Senators
CoNKIING and BLAINE, and TO bring them
into fraternal relationship. Such feast as
that is represented TO have been ought to be
a success in the way of placation. 1t would,
no doubt, have smoothed down the animosi-
ties of the rebellion if given in Virginia in
1862. Strong proof of the intent of this
festive gathering is found in the fact that
no henchman of Secretary SHERMAN was
present at the feast

CONGRESS proposes now to prohibit the
advertisement of lotteries in the District of
Columbia. All right-if it is in the inter
est of good morals and for the public well
fare. Aud now, while ii has its hand in
the work of suppressing gambling, il should
not stop with lotteries, for they are harm
less when compared with stock aud produce
gambling. Fortunes are not easily sacri-
feed in lotteries where the tickets are from
B2 to So eacl while the shores Of the Stock
aud Produce Exchange are lined with
wrecks of fortunes which have been
stranded by being drawn into those mael-
strOms. A more benefcent act cannot be
passed than one to abolish the Stock and
Produce Exchanges, and to prohibit the pub
lication of market and stock reports in this
city and elsewhere. If Congress is actuated
by sincere desire 10 abolish the evil OF
gambling, let it grapple with the Hercules
of that ruinOus practice, and go for stock
gambling aud betting on the price OF the
necessary food to sustain life Lotteries
Objectionable as they may be, are innocent
in comparison with that class of gambling

this membership implies. Mr.. FILLEY

who resigned a place on the committee be-
