Quackenbush's name was on the register the name of w s. Shelley was sent to the senate as commander, vice Quackenbush removed This was an inadvertency, ,and it made an excess of one name on the register This was corrected by withholding any nomination un,il the proper number was reached, thus recognizing the fact that Quackenbush's name was properly there, that he was not regarded as dismissed, but still an officer serving out his mitigated punishment. In 1881 the question as to his legal status was raised. The effect of the present bill was to record the opinion of the senate that in accordance with supreme court decisions Quackenbush was not legally dismissed the service. Senator Cockrel made bitter fight on the bill yesterday He read the record of the court martial at length, and showed that Quack- enbush was dismissed the service for drunkenness while a midshipman, was re- stored by special act of congress, and again dismissed for the same offence. The bill passed by large majority.

MAYOR HEWITT of New York is trying to explain his action in refusing to permit the Irish flag from being raised over city hall on St Patrick's day, but fails signally. Yesterday he sent a letter of explanation to the board of aldermen, defending his position, and quoting the law, and decides that the danger line is reached "where we must decide if native or foreign born ideas are to rule the city" He said it was one of the Irish demands for home rule that ti e Irish should rule Ireland, and he thought they should conceue the right of Ameri- cans to rule America. Such rot! We had credited Mayor Hewitt with more sense. The patriotic Irishmen of New York city were only following precedent, and their request of Mayor Hewitt was not unrea- sonable. He not only refused to grant their request, but now adds insult to in jury. Politically, Mayor Hewitt is dead goose.

THE president yesterday sent to congress

THE president yesterday sent to congress & con munication from the secretary of the interior, with great mass of testimony, relating to grant of public land to the state of Oregon for the construction of wagon roads. The president says an ex- animation has developed ''the most un- blushing frauds upon the government, which, if remaining unchallenged, will divert several hundred thousand acres of land from the public domain and from the reach of honest settlers to those who have attempted to pervert and prostitute the benefcent designs of the government. The government sought, by the promise of generous donations of land, to promote the building of wagon roads for public con- venience and for the purpose of encourag ing settlement upon the public lands. The roads have not yet been built, and yet all attempt is made to claim the lands under a title which depends for it's validity en- tirely upon the construction of these roads,"

National Democratic Convention.

The national democratic committee hay ing met in the city of Washington on the 22d day of February, 1888, has appointed Tuesday, the 9th day of June next at noon as the time chosen and the city of St Louis as the place of holding the national demo- cratic convention.
 Each state is entitled to representation therein equal to double the number of it's senators and representatives in the con- gress of the United States. The Demo crats of each organized territory and the District of Columbia are invited to send two delegates, subject to the decision ot the convention as to their admission. All Democratic conservative citizens of the United States, irrespective of past political associations and differences, who can unite with us in the effort for pure, economi- cal and constitutional government, are cor dially invited to join in sending delegates to the convention.

JUDGE DRESSER of the Maine supreme court has given an unique decision in the Auburn Lewiston dog case. He has ruled that live dog is not stealable in Maine. Under the Maine laws a dog is not subject to larceny, because he is not an article of food, not made by the toll of a man, and not included in any other of the classes of stealable property. However, the hide of a dog is stealable, because it is made valu- able by the toll of man. Thus the owner of dead dog is protected by law, while the owner of a live dog is left to his own resources to protect his dog. This is quite & premium on dead dogs. The legislature has the power to make a live dog stealable. If the legislature fails to do this the dog comes under the common law, and you can make off with him, and, although he cost his owner small fortune, and was imported from Italy, you can't you can't be arrested for stealing. But the owner can bring a civil action either for trespass, trover or replevin. Hawks are stealable because they have ''noble and generous nature" and are serviceable to mankind. Bees are stealable because they produce food

THE LATEST IN JEWELS.

Dainty scent bottles of oxidized silver wire are made to initiate wicker tubes.
 A sword hilt, richly jeweled, is pleasing variation of this pattern ill scarf pins.
 Miniature portraits, encircled with dia- monds, make pretty but expensive scarf pins.
 A small globe, completely studded with pearls, makes all artistic pendant for queen chain.
 An odd thing in brooches is a walking stick of OXidized silver, from which hangs pair of worn out shoes.
 A spider, with numerous legs of bright gold, pearl body and diamond eyes, makes an attractive scarf pin.
 A superb bracelet recently seen was of Roman gold, the ends terminating in balls of enameled forget me nots.
 A silver pencil recently seen represented an extinguished taper, the wick of which was curled so as to serve as hook.
 A black, a blue and white pearl, set as closely together as possible, make an attract i've combination for a scarf pln
 Moonstones, backed with foil of different colors and set in triangIes in the shape of flowers, make peculiar, but pretty brooches.
 In brooches a handsome design represents sickle of hammered gold, within which lies a bouquet of varicolored enameled blossoms
 Some hairpins of tasteful design recently seen represented an arrow shank of tortoise shell, the feather being of brightly finished silver.
 Narrow court plaster cases of silver, hold ing a dozen strips of plaster of various colors, are much prized by those who wish to be prepared for accidents. A shell of paved and graded diamonds, having twelve rays and bearing glowing i, ruby within it's depths, is an odd and rather i expensive design ill brooches. Pocket pincushions of plush, having on top and bottom daisies and other blossoms in oxidized silver, are among the handsome things shown by dealers. | For economical smokers, who regret to throw away half smoked Havana, a cigar | shaped case of silver inten ed to hold @ single cigar is 8 handy pocket necessity.
 A pretty design in scarf pins recently ob- served represented spray of lilies of the valley. The stalk was of bright gold, and 1 from it hung half dozen of the blossoms in natural color.
 A brooch much in favor among people of taste and wealth is one with an enameled miniature of Louis XIV beauty, surrounded 1 with rim of small brilliants or alternate brilliants and pearls. | In brooches handsome novelty is a but tertly of f1gree work, with diamond head, emerald eyes and ruby body. The bright hued dots upon the insects wings are repre- sented by opals, moonstones and brighter col 1 Ored stones.
