at New York had had an operation performed in
which his spine was scared. Returning to
Washlnton after the operation he ndiscreetly
took warm bath In the Senate bath room This
weakened him. and his system did not recover
from 1t. lie was taken down sick at his board
ing-house, and shortly afterwards died. His
death occurred at sos o'clock. Monday morning,
Nov. 22, 1875. The cause was set down as apo
plexy. During his last hours, he like Hen
bricks. was working upon volume Of memoirs
or history. He said in his last hours that he
would like to live to finish his book Shortly be-
fore he died he picked up a hymn book. in the
front of which his wife's picture was pasted, and
looked at it for a long time. Fifteen min
utes before he died he heard of the death Of
Senator Ferry. of Connecticut, and it is believed
that this knowledge of the death of one of his
dear friends hastened his death. The death of
Ferry had occurred the night before, and his
friends had deferred telling him of it until the
last moment. AS morning went on and the time
for the newspapers to come approached it was
seen that it would be impossible to keep the
news from him longer He was told of it and
was greatly shocked to hear it. Fifteen minutes
later he was dead He spoke of his long life
just before he died and said: ''Since / came to
the Senate eighty-three of the members who
first sat with nc in the Senate have passed away,
and | don't suppose any living man except per-
haps Hamhn, can say that" Vice-president
Wilson had great funeral here, and he was
carried with solemn celebrations to Boston. l
think his body lay in state in Independence Hall
III Philadelphia, and at Boston he was received
with great honor.
There are many curious facts in American
history Here we have the three Vice presidents
Gerry, Hendricks and Wiison-dying in Novem-
Der at dates which might all come in single
week No President, either in or out of office,
has died in November, though six have died in
July and four in June. Garfield died in Septem-
Der, Lincoln in April Taylor in Jniy, and Harri-
son in April. Two Vice sidenSs have been in
dlcted ior treason These were Aaron Burr and
~
John G. Calhoun, has resigned his Office, and
seven men have held both presidential and vice
presidential chairs. John Adams, Washington's
vice-president, succeeded him in the White
House. Jefferson. Adamss Vice president, did
likewise, and Martin Van Buren, one of Jack
sons presidents, was his successor The
other five became President by death. They
were Tyler. Fillmore, johnson and Arthur

Row Between Sheriff and Commissioners.
1t seems that the decision of the Superior
Court judges, general term. in the matter of the
William ID. Coon's habeas corpus application,
does not Settle in the opinion of the sheriff and
his attorneys the controversy between that off
GER and the County Commissioners. At the
outset the sheriff maintained that the Commits
sloners' general order, transferring all prisoners
IN the county Jail Jail under sentence in that in
stitutlon to the work-house, was imperative,
asst gave him no voucher for the prisoners turned
over The commissioners, on the other hand.
say that If the sheriff is to have a specific order
OF transfer for each prisoner, it will necessitate
their being i'll almost daily session, which, on the
average, would cost about $40 80 for each order.

The Police Superintendency.

The Police Commissioners will meet this
afternoon and transact routine business 1t is
not expected that anything will be done to dis
turb the quietness that has existed in regard to
the superintendent's position. 1t is understood
that Commissioner Murphy has expressed special
satisfaction at the superintendent management
of the force during the funeral of the Vice
president, hence nothing is looked for by Col.
Langs friends except his retention without in
terruption until the next periodical row occurs.

of these meetings. He will. in conjunction

will talk again at Christian Chapel.

In the Criminal Court yesterday afternoon the
information against Sterling r. Holt, chargin g
him with destroying ballot-box, was called up
on a motion to quash, by his attorneys, Messrs.
Byfeld and Rowland They argued that the
act complained of constituted TO public offense,
as the ballot-box was not used as such; that it
had served purpose at an election, but on the
