address, and presented him with a

response, thanked Commissioner
Dent and his friends for the cordial
welcome given him, and said thathe
had been SO overwhelmed by the
stream of congratulation and friendly
affection which met him at New

unable to express his grateful appre-

was again overwhelmed with con-

FIT is understood that a number of Ia
dies, employed in the department,
called upon the Secretary and re-
quested to be transferred to other
rooms, as their male associates were
almost continually smoking, thus
rendering it very disagreeable to
them. About three-fourths of the
male employees of the various depart

or pipe in their mouths, notwith.

WASHINGTON LETTER.
[From our Regular Correspondent

tFrom our Regular Correspondent
WASHINGTON, D. G., June 8, 1882
The turbulent scenes of last week
in Congress have been continued
through the present week, and the
end is not yet, nor will it be until a
Republican is placed in every con.
tested seat. The rules of the House
have been amended so as to prevent
fillibustering, TO- q certain extent.
but, even with the amended rules, it
will be necessary for the Republicans
to keep q quorum constantlyon hand
in order to dispose of contested
cases, and of all questions of q polit-
ical character. 1t is the intention
of the Democrats to use every posi-
BILE means to retain Wheeler and
Shelly-the two remaining members
whose places are contested. If, dur.
ing the progress of the debate, the
democrats at any time find the Re-
publicans without n quorum, they
can, in spite of the new rule, resume
dilatory tactics.
The trial Of the Star Route cases
began in the Criminal Court, and it
is watched with great interest by the
bar, as we'll as by the many friends
of the defendants. All the counsel
and large crowd of spectators were
in attendance. Col. Bob. Ingersoll
opened with a motion to quash the
indictment, as far as ex-senator Dor.
sey and his brother were concerned,
because, as he urges, the Grand Jury
had not been drawn in accordance
with the provisions Of law. Judge
Wylie over.ruled the motion of Mr..
Ingersoll. Very eminent counsel,
including McSweeny and Shellabar-
ger, of Ohio, Chandler of St. Louis,
Wilson of Iowa, and others, have
been retained by the defendants, and
it is. thought the trial of the case
will continue far into at least
month.
Lieutenant Danenhower arrived at
his home in Washington yesterday,
and was received at the railroad sta.

The court of Rhode Island has sew
cred the bonds of matrimony between
Kate Chase Sprague and the ex Gov
ernor, ex-senator and ex.husband.-
The suit was instituted by the wife
who has gained her case and vindi-
Gated her character. Generally in
such suits both parties are more or
less culpable. The case of Sprague
VS.. Sprague is perhaps an exception
to the rule. The court has decided
that the greater share Of blame rests
on the unfortunate man who was
once wealthy, honored and blessed
with . happy home. But he was
oyertaken BY adversely, friends fell
off as is the way Of the world, and
she who should have aided him to
bear up against reverses forsook him
in his bankrupt condition and be-
came his accuser. But the court de-
cided she was right in doing SO, and
there is no appeal from such high
authority on conjugal ethics.

II arrived home the day before
yesterday, from Cincinnati, where
went to consult a Physician in regard
to the bronchial trouble with which
| have been suffering for some years,
and very much since came from
Wheeling this last trip. Ihave been
mostly confined to my bed since
came home, and feel generally mis-.
cradle and wretched, all Of which
think is more TO be attributed to the
medicine than the disease. The
orders Of both Physicians are that
remain very quiet during the early
summer, or until the treatment can
have its effect. | feel that this will
preclude my taking any further part
in seeking nomination for Congress
and that | owe it to my friends and
the party tosay so as early as posi-.
BILE. You can therefore, tell any and
all my friends, of this decision, and
tender them my thanks for what
they have already DONE"
