profession. Under the Unlteu SUatee 4eFi0eu
statutes, GOOD where party wishes to revle"
to the Supreme court common law for Juug-
ment of the United States circuit court, and at
the same time stay all proceedings pending the
writ of error, he Is required to sue out ana nave
served writ of error and file bonds Tor costs
within sixty days from the entry OF judgment,
and where a writ is issued ana served, and
where the bonds for costs filed within sixty
days asupersedeas bond may be filed after the
sixty days by permission OF q justice of the
supreme court. In this case writ of error was
sued out and served, and bonds for costs fled,
and application is now made to Judge Harlan
for permission to file a supersedeas bond after
the sixty days, and the question is now raised
for the first time in this court whether in COM
putting the sixty days the day on which the judg-
ment was entered was included or excluded.
Mr.. Lsrned, few days ago, argued for the
former, and MIR. Capron to-day argued FOR
the latter. The justice viii decide the case in
accordance with the rule that prevails in Hi
nois, which is understood to be in favor Of ez-
GLIDING the day.
THE FRENCH COLONY.
The attention of the public has occasionally
been called to the French colony that has had
possession of the modelling room II the Office
of the supervising architect of the treasury.
Nearly all the persons employed have been
Frenchmen who spoke only their own language,
probably retained their foreign citizens hip,
derided the United States, guyed one OF their
number, who so far forgot himself as 10 get nat
uralized, made the room too hot for any Ameri-
can who was not remarkably thick skinned, and
finally did very little work and did that when
they pleased. Mr.. Bell discovered this Gallo
colony soon after he became supervising archi-
tect but ne did not care to make changes rashIy,
SO he contented himself with notifying the
Freachmen to spend less time talking and more
working, and occasionally visited the room to
see how things were getting along.
Evidently they did not get on we'll.
The Frenchmen would not abandon their old
privileges, and the new CHIEF failed to close his
eyes and ears to their performances, so to-day
SIX Of them were dismissed. The modelling will
be done hereafter IN plain United States, and
there VIII be more of It and less sociability.
Mr.. CARLIsLE's COMMITTEES.
The actual feeling OF portion Of the Demo
cratic representation in reference to Mr. Car
isles committee lists was developed in CONVEX
sation with the GLOBE correspondent to-day BY
a Democratic leader and a warm supporter of
Mr.. Carlisle In the recent speakership contest
He received the assignment that he desired, and
his opinions are interesting although he does not
wish TO have his name mentioned because she
hopes without good reason,'' as he says, "that he
may be mistaken in his present judgment of the
committee and the outlook" The drift of his
comment was that 1t looks as though the com
mittee that will have control of the reforms
that this congress was expected to inaugurate
have been framed, as they were when Mr.. Ran
dali was speaker, for the express purpose of
preventing the accomplishment of these reforms.

If Mr.. Carlisle is opposed to

have been picked to prevent decisive legislative
reforms, there will certainly be the devil to nav

wASHBURN ON IHE COMMITTEES.
''Carlisle's commit es,'' said Congressman
W. D. Washburn, of Minnesota, to day, ''sive
more general satisfaction than those of many
preceding congresses. They are certainly more
satisfactory than those OF Keller. The COM
mittees of the present house were chosen with a
great deal of care, and no small amount of
time was spent in maxi. an equitable dstri-
button. The same name does not appear in
more than two or three committees. If man
