The House judiciary committee which Is
considering . bin respecting the balance of
the Geneva award has, it is said, agreed to
ignore the insurance; to consider every
armed confederate ship which capt ured or
destroyed Federal vessels cruiser; and to
admit all claims for losses on navigable
waters within the admiralty jurisdiction Of
the United States. The practical effect will
be to include all claims coming under the
two latter pro positions in the first class Tex
culpated cruisers) the "war premium" men
being left in the second class where they
win probably get nothing, as the balance of
the sward will be disposed of by the claims
Of the first class.

The Copiah county investigation is ended
and the committee will proceed to make up
their reports, for, of course, there will be
two. What kind Of report the Democratic
minority will draw up 1t is hard to ccnjec-
ture. Ordinarily, in Investigations of this
kind, some show, at least, of defence has
been made. But In this one the Bourbons
have made no attempt either to deny or to
-extenuate the outrages Of the Copiah mob.
On the contrary they have brazenly justified
these on the ground that they were necessa-
~ to subdue the majority and keep the
Offices out Of the hands of the Independents.

Mr.. Deering are disgruntled Republicans.
In fact, the only men who are cutting a
prominent figure on the Democratic side of
the municipal contest, with the exception Of
Tabulator Chase, are disgruntled Republi-
cans. The old time Democrats, such as Gen.
5. j. Anderson, Hon. Bion Bradbury, Hon.
L. D. Ii. Sweat, and the Hon. William d.
Clifford, are conspicuous by their silence

The Randall club Of Philadelphia hal.

The Randall Club of Philadelphia has en-
gagged thirty rooms in the Commercial hotel
Of Chicago during the National Convention,
and brass band. This means of course, that
Mr.. Randall's 'boom1 is to be worked for
all 1t Ia worth at Chicago. The Philadelphia
election greatly enfeebled it, but plenty Of
liquid refreshments and noise may brace il

An "anxious Democrat" writes from Port
land to the Boston Post that Sour New Eng
land politics are in pretty bad state;" that
'sthe control has gone to Ben Buffers dis
gruntled Republicans, and the Democrats
are divided, and many will not vote or will
vote the Republican ticket in preference"
1t is not strange that a Portland Democrat
should be thus melancholy at the present
time; or that he shonld feel that the control
of politics, so far as the Democratic party is
concerned, has passed into the hands of dis
gruntled Republicans. Mr.. John W. Deer
ing, who just now seems to be the only lead
er the Portland Democracy can boast OF, is a
disgruntled Republican, Mr.. Spencer Rog-
ers, The chairman of the Democratic city
committee, is disgruntled Republican,
John c. Cobb, candidate for Alderman 10

The Foreign Affairs Committee have re-
ported to the House that they could get no
information concerning the alleged inprop-
er conduct of Mr.. Hewitt in regard to the
o'Donnell resolution. This is probably the
end of the matter. Mr.. Hewitt was evil
IDENTITY guilty Of indiscretion; but the i'm
portsnce of his conversation with Mr.. West
was probably greatly exaggerated by Mr.. Per-
ryBelmont, who is a personal enemy of Mr..
Hewitt, and took advantage Of this episode
to injure him.

the Oxford bar also generally asked for
the appointment of Mr.. Haskell

OF Judge Waterman of Gorham who was
nominated for the place and declined it, the
Kennebec Journal justly says: Judge Wa
terman has filled the Office of Judge of Pro-
bate for Cumberland county with much abil-
ity. He is a graduate, and was one of the
overseers of Bowdoin College, and has tray
eled extensively in Europe, and recently
in California for his health. He is very
able lawyer and would make popular and
acceptable Judge. After the Governor made
the nomination, and notified Mr.. Waterman,
that he had placed his name on the nomi-

ing the nomination on account of i'll health. !"

TAR SMOKE FOR DrpHTAERIA.

Ruth Lockwood the nine-year-old child
of Thomas Lockwood, compositor in the
Times Office, became violently i'll with diph

that 1t was deemed dangerous to try trache
otomy, or cutting open the windpipe. On
Thursday DR.. Nichols of 1T West Washing
ton place, who was attending her, received
a copy of the Paris Figaro, which contained
n report made to the French Academy Of
Medicine by DIR. Delthil. DR.. Delthil said
that the vapors Of liquid tar and turpentine
would dissolve the fibrinous emulation which
choke up the throat in Group and diphthe-
ria.
DIR. Delthirs process was described. He
pours equal parts of turpentine and liquid
tar into tin pan or cup and sets fire to the
mixture. A dense resinous smoke arises,
which obscures the air Of the room
" The patient" DR.. Delthil says, i'm.

choking and rattle stops the patient fall.

smoke with pleasure. The fibrinous men,
brane soon becomes detached, and the pa

caught in glass, may be seen to dissolve
in the smoke In the course of three day.

DIR. Nichols tried this treatment yester-
day with little Ruth Lockwood. She was

her. First pouring about two tablespoon

fire. The rich resinous smoke which rost

As it filed the room the child's breathing
became natural, and as the smoke grow
