ture has shown herself capable Of late.

mississippi valley and the tornadoes of

Nor much business will be done by
congress until after the meeting Of the
national democratic congress at Chica-
so, June 81. A large number Of senators
and representatives are now at Mime
apolis and almost as 500 rs they return
to the capital the democrats will be
ready to take their turn at a convention.
When both tickets are properly in the
field it is expected that the %appropria-
ton bills will be passed as speedily as
consistent with u disregard for public
interests and congress adjourn.

Hetherington and gave him seventy-five
lashes with a rawhide, because he had
brutally beaten and attempted to kill
his wife. BY the time the tar and
feathers wear off and give the gashes a
chance to heal, MI. Hetherington may
have changed his ideas about the duties

not a wiser, he is at least a sorer man.

The Hon. Augustus BranleRee, in the
New London Day, gives this entertaining
reminiscence: Zone Sunday evening
Senator Dixon. with whom | was on terms
of intimacy, came to my rooms with the
announcement that the United States
marshal for Connecticut was dead, and
urged me to join with him in the recon-
mendation of a gentleman who lived in a
country town in my district, and to whom
lie was under an obligation for political
favors. The gentleman named was not a
candidate for office. lived remote from
the place where the courts were held, and
had no experience in the duties of such a
position. Dixon was a persuasive man. l
WAS Il very young member and was easily
hattered with the idea that / could secure a
leading appointment for my district. He
urged that We should go up that evening
and secure tho appointment before the
other members of the delegation should
present a rival candidate. Dixon was a
favorite at the White house, lived nearly
opposite the executive mansion, and was
in the habit of dropping in Sunday even,
inRs. informally, n chatting with the
president.
l was put forward to state the case. and
urged it with all the arguments ] could
muster. Mr.. Lincoln listened with a half.
serious. half-comic expression, asked some
pointed questions. which showed that he
took in the full inwardness OF the situation
and whom ! had concluded said: lyon re-
min me of a young lawyer in Sangamo1
county who had hung out his single for
long time without having q client. At last
he got one, hut feeling very anxious not te
lose his first case. he thought he would Il
down ami state it to the Justice who was tc
sry y and ascertain what he thought of it

FIRE CHIGF HBALY
REFLECTED LAST NIGHT By AN UNANIMOUS
VOTE OF COUNCIL
The Ordinance Amending The Rules Of Coun eli
Knocked in the Head-Ths Miscellaneous
Business Transacted.

The most important business coming
before Council at last evenings regular
session was the election OF Chief or
the Fire Department for the new term.
Chief Frank j. Healey went through
unanimously, and will continue to pre-
side over the department for the ensu-
ing two years.
The two Branches were called to or
der on the stroke of eight o'clock, and
the Joint session was convened at nine
o'clock, His Honor, the Mayor, presid-
ing, and thirty-fve members In their
seats. The Mayor stated the object OF
the Joint session briefly, and then DR..
Campbell called for the reading Of the
ordinance relating to the election.
The President said he didn't see the
object, unless there was some doubt as
70 whether this was the proper date for
the election.
Or. Campbell said his reason for ask
ing was that he had labored under the
impression that d Chief and two assist
ants were 10 be elected, but he had
! beer tod there was q new ordinance
ind er which the Chief appointed his
assistants.
The Mayor said the question was on
the election of Chief, and DR.. Camp
bell said be would raise the question
later.
/ Nominations were then called Tor,
and Mr.. Bailey nominated Chief Healy,
eulogizng him as al excellent execu-
I tive officer. DR.. Campbell seconded the
/ nomination. There were no further
nominations, Mr.. Andrew White having
Withdrawn from the race, and Chief
| Healy got every vote on a call OF the
/ roll and was declared elected. The
| MAYOR announced the result In a u an
ner most complimentary to Chief Healy,
| extoliing him as an officer who had done
his duty so well that even the Republi-
cans had not deemed It worth while TO
/ nominate man against him, and had
all voted for Chief Healy.
DR.. Campbell then renewed his cues
ton about the Assistant Marshais, and
/ asked that the ordinance be read.
Mr.. Bailey thought 1t would be loss
! Of time, and said DR.. Campbell couldn't
have attended many sessions OF Council
lately.
Dr. Campbell insisted, amid motions
to dissolve the session and an objection
to its being read by Mr.. Bailey. After
some confusion, Mr.. Wilson thought
the matter ought 20 be cleared up. II
assistants were to be elected, now was
the time TO do it.
Amid cross-fre OF discussion, asser-
ton and denial, motions TO adjourn,
etc, Mr.. Brock called upon the city
Clerk to settle the question about the
language Of the ordinance relating to
Assistant Marshals. The Clerk sent
for the ordinance, but before ii arrived
Mr.. .Thoner stated the fact, namely,
that the old Assistant MarshalS held
over till January 1st, and after that
date tho Chief appointed his assistants
from the paid department..
That ended the matter and the joint
session dissolved.
When the Second Branch reconvened
the bond Of Chief Hea!y, in the sum OF
81 goo. with James Healy surety, was
! approved, the oath OF office was admin
istered, and then Council adjourned.
