The crew and petty officers Of the Yantic
have united in grateful testimonial to Com
mander Heyerman's care and attention to the
unfortunate men who were affected with yell
low fever aboard that vessel. This unusual
incident will remain one of the pleasantest
memorials Of not altogether glorious and
happy expedition.
Various circumstances which have come to
light, and conjectures which have show of
reason, encourage the belief that the amount
of the late Henry p. Marshals defalcation
may prove to be less than was at first supposed,
though there is little ground for hope that the
memory Of this man, who was so long trusted
and who seemed to be leading a simple, useful
life, can be wholly redeemed. One notable
feature of the case is the frank and manly at
ttude Of the son, so suddenly overwhelmed
by deep and permanent affection.
It is likely that the contest for the United
States Senatorship in New-Jersey will be de-
cidod this week. General interest will be d.
rected toward the proceedings of the New
Jersey Legislature, not only on account of the
intensely bitter fight between the two chief
candidates en- the Democratic side, Senator
Mcpherson and Ex-Governor Albeit, but by
reason Of the Republican opportunities which
may arise from the conditions of this personal
struggle. 1t will be seen elsewhere that five
boiling Democrats in a joint meeting of the
two houses have the power to prevent the
election Of either Democratic aspiIant, and in
the close contest now being waged the ele-
ments of discord may produce such a result.
The Democratic situation makes the harmony
Of the Republican minority in both branches
Of the Legislature an agreeable spectacle.
Yesterdays snowstorm was the first serious
demonstration of the kind which the current
winter has made in part Of the region visited
by It. In some years good sleghing is afforded
a month or six weeks earlier in the season than
this. The weather clerk. moreover, appears to
have been a tTihe niggardly as well as very
tardy in tho bestowal Of his favors. While the
arr was filed with flying fakes for hours. the
actual deposit does not appear to have been
heavy enough in this vicinity TO cause any
great inconvenience, or to justify hopes of
sport on the road for any length Of time. A
great many youngsters, however found delight
in it, in spite of Sunday prophecies, while
such farmers as had winter wheat exposed to
the action Of the weather and the lumbermen
up in the Adirondacks and in Maine were no
doubt grateful for the practical advantages
they will derive from the changed situation.
The peculiar bearings Of the proceedings Of
the Army Retiring Board in the case of Cen
eral Swain are significantly described in our
Washington dispatches. Beyond the matters
OF technical investigation with which the prop
or authorities are now concerned, there are
political agencies at work whose influence must
be viewed with alarm not only by officers Of
the Army whose professional interest is thor
suehly awakened but by civilians, who will
