convention this afternoon and nominated q
straight ticket. headed by Aid. Hugh ]. Grant

during which he said, Significantly, that he I'M
derstood the convention 10 be for the purpose
of nominating Tammany ticket, and not for
the purpose of tooling and fussing around with

fitted, and say his nomination was not in ac-
cordance with the rules OF Democratic conven-

The Other POlygamy.

Washington, % Troubles in a
family occupying high social sta
ton, and which have been on the
tongues of gossips for some time,
to-day took a tangible form in the
shape of suit for divorce, brought
by Helen Marshall Carroll agaiost
Samuel 8. Carroll, msjor-general on
the retired list, United States army.
The charge is adultery with notori-
GUS women of this city. The petit
toner states that they were married
at st. Louis, September Sd, 1856,
by Rev. DR.. Schuyler, her maiden
name being Helen Bennett; that
since the discovery Of these offenses,
for the sake of her children, and in
the hope that he would abandon his
vicious habits, she remained with
him, but his conduct has been daily
growing worse, and, therefore, she
seeks the protection of the law. The
parties to the suit are we'll known
in military circles throughout the
country, General Carroll having
reached a high rank during the
war, and Mrs. Carroll being closely
related TO some of the most dis.
tipguished officers in the service.

road and Navigation conn
Danies, will be such as very
much to strengthen the col
lateral which the company will
have to offer as security for long
loan. The annual meeting of the
corporation will occur within sixty
days, and as changes in the manage
ment are possible, it seems to me
more appropriate TO leave that mat
ter for the new board Of directors to
deal with. The cOmpany's officers
have endeavored to bring the COM

ditIoD in which it was found In
December last into one OF undoubt-
ed solvency, TO adjust and pay

to be much larger than had been an

territory will make good the ex-
rectations which led to the organ.
ization of the company.
