At the meeting of the Park Commissioners

important if Mr.. llutchins is in the right; and
Commissioner Bordens remark, "Thcn think
we had better serve that notice right Off" will
attract the attention Of the whole community.

The action Of the State Senate on the World 5
Fair bill yesterday leaves the measure in such
a position that it can be called up again at a
future time when there are enough Of it, friends
present TO insure its passage. The final vote
on the amended bill was 13 to ), but a ma
jority of the whole number of Senators is re-
CURED 70 pass any measure. Only one Demo
ciat, Mr.. Ahearn, voted with the Republicans
in the affirmative. Considerable delay in the
final disposition of the matter by the Senate
seems to be inevitable, inasmuch as several
Republican Senators are absent on account OF
illness, but there is still chance if the 70
itical opposition Will consent to listen to the
DICE of public opinion.

RICHMOND Va, Feb. "a compromis
bill was to day introduced in The House BY
Mr.. Hume, OF Alexandria. relating to TIT
Mount Vernon avenue. The original bill
had some features in 1t Objectionable to Mr.
Gibson, of Culpeper. who is chairman OF tht
Committee on Federal Relations, but the
bill introduced to-day is satisfactory to al
parties. 1t allows the United States govern
ment the right to build the Mount Vernon
avenue The bill will get on the calendar
to morrow or the day after and will then ad
vance to its passage without any objection
to it.
Some of the members of the House who
voted for the adoption of the resolution In
troduced by Mr.. Cabel looking to the con
verting of the Petersburg Normal and Col.
legiate Institute into lunatic asylum have
gotten their mettle up on account of the &C.
ton of the Senate, that body having adopt
ed report of committee, OF which Senator
Lovenstein, OF Richmond, is chairman, re
commencing the rejection of Mr.. Cabell's
resolution. The delegates who voted for
the resolution think that the Senate certain
~ ought to have adopted the resolution as it
came from the House. The resolution Sim
ply called for the appointment CT a commit.
tee to report simply upon the advisabiiity OF
changing the school into lunatio asylum
The action taken by the Senate will, it Ia
thought, give black eye to the appropria-
ton for the school Speaking of lunatic
asylnms recalls to mind statement
made to-day by Mr.. Cabell. He
says the appropriations that will be
asked for for the various State institutions
above the regular appropriations will reach
two hundred thousand dollars. This is one
argument be is using in advocacy of the
adjustment of the colored Normal School
at Petersburg, the simple lighting of which
costs thirteen hundred dollars year.
There were beautiful speeches made In
the House to day by Speaker Cardwell and
Mr.. Dabney, of Aibemarle, in advocacy of
the resolutions of sympathy expressed for
Secretary Tracy. The Senate adopted the
resolutions as soon as they came from the
House.
Among the visitors at the Capitol to-day
were ex Congressman Osbell. OF Pittsylva-
mia, and ex Senator Rhea, of Washington
county. The latter is here looking after
some legislation affecting Bristol.
There was exhibited at the Capitol to
day by Delegate Ryan, of Loudoun, hand
some patented leather halter. 4 company
desiring to manufacture these halters at
Alexandria is seeking o charter from the
Legislature. 1t is said that they propose
carrying on an extensive business.

The HOUSE RULEs.-The republican
members of the House of Representatives In
caucus yesterday decided to accept the
committees report on rules, with some
slight changes. The rules give the Speaker
almost arbitrary power. The democratic
members held caucus last night to discuss
the matter. Mr. Springer thought the rules
meant that the watchmen were gagged, the
watchdogs chained and the treasury thrown
open to plumber. But the general sentiment
was that no matter how obnoxious the rules
are they we're asked for by the democrats
and would be considered In fair spirit.
Mr.. Carlisle was instructed to negotiate
with the majority managers for reasonable
time to consider the rules in case they
should be reported to-day. The republicans
will also be requested 10 elbow q debate of
reasonable length upon them when they are
called up for consideration, and II these
concessions are granted the democrats will
inlerpose no unusual obstacles to action up
on them.
