ThS .Artesian well at Terre Haufe is said to,be highly medicinal in its qualities. We know to be intensely and disgustingly qdoriferous.—NewAlbantrJLt\{ger.

Ab to. the Bvedicinal qualities of the well there is no doubt whatever. It was only yesterday that we learned of a well authenticated cure of chronic dyspepsia by the u»e of its-water, and this is but one of hundreds of crtres eflected in the sami way. iTie water may be "disgustingly odoriferous" to jpersons whose nasal edu cation has been -neglected—as that of our New Albany cotemporarv appears to have been—but a limited degree of nose-clo-ture enables one to appreciate the rare combination of jdelicate perfumes which, loaing their individuality, makes up one of.those grand—shall we say gorgeous?-— odors, such as rarely burst upon the en«ripUvfred nasals of grdj^ry mortals.'

The appointment of the various heads 0f.the.depaistment8 under' the* new cKar-l ter and excise law is announced by Mayor* Hall this morning. There are four Democrats and 0ft6'Republiban iri tlie department of the docks. The department of Charities and Correction, as well a? the Fire Department, will stand_thr§e DemooRepublicans. i^e^eaMyDepartment will" be composed of five Democratic members and three_ Republican.

The police is equally divided in politic?, but with the understanding that there is to bp a new Democratic Executive head^ as'Siiperintenement. Tlie other. 3 Departements are^ntirely Democratic. The Mayor in announcing his appointments says.he would bo politically justified by the numerical record of votes upon the Legislature which bestowed the responsibility of making appointments upon him, should he confer every one of the thirtWtwo appointments 'solely Bpon DemoCThts, but the extraordinary unauity by which the power was agreed upon appears to create an obligation to respect the political minority of his constituents, so far at least as to reappoint a few of his political opponents, whose past service to the public additionally deserve the recognition. «.. *~t m'farland trial.

Interest in the McFarland-Richardson trial*reached a pitch of intensity on this the 6th day, rarely if ever before witnessed on a similar occasion. Though rain came down in torrents the crowd that thronged the Court room, stairways and grounds, exceeded any day previous since the beginning of the trial. At an early hour the chief actors took their accustomed places inside the Court room, McFarland preserving the same cool,complacent, demeanor he has preserved throughout the trial.
