The Kepublican senators in caucus yesterday selected a list of gentlemen to be voted for for the leading offices of the senate. General Anson G. Mc Cook was nominated for secretary of the senate, the position formerly held by Geo. C. Gorham, who wasalso a can didate for re-election. General McCook is one of the Ohio "fighting McCooks," who several years ago moved to New York city afterwards representing one of the congressional district of that city in the 45th, 46th and 47th congresses. He was one of Garfield's most intimate friends, and is a man of the highest character. The opposition to Gorham was based on the fact that he had been a very bitter leader in the stalwart faction during theGartield-Conkhngdifterences. The candidate for sergeant-at-arms is a southern man.
VOICE OF THE PEOPLE.
Kov, Tlios. Parry—Central Presbyterian Church. To the Editor of tho Express.
.Sir
The papers state that a cull is to be extended to Mr. Tarry, of the. Central Vresbytcrlan church of this city, to become pastor of Jetlerson Park Presbyterian church of Chicago. The Courier of last evening states that Mr. Parry will acccpt the call if it Is extended to htm.
There are some reasons why Mr. Parry should not leave the Central chiuch at this time. He was the first pastor of this church after the union of the First and Second Presbyterian churches. That uuion was harmoniously accomplished, and has continued to the present time, The membership at the time of the union, was about 4S). The membership at the present is a&M& 565. To accommodate the congregation it was necessary to enlarge and remodel one of the churches. This was done during the last fourteen mouths, at a cost of over
918,000.
A re
spectable minority of the officers of the church opposed so large an out-lay of monev. believing that half that amount would repair the old church in every way suitable to the demands, and in this way save thr church of indebtedness. The present improvement of lie church at the cost menliuned was entered Into. llmiiKh reluctantly, l»y the advice of Mr. Pai'O. ami with the understaiidini: that lie to remain until it was paid for, the means promised. .N'ow the church has an indebtedness «f some SP.tMU, witli available assets of 94.Wi.

mand of the United States naval force on the Asiatic station, arrived in this city on Saturday. He was asked "What do you think of the FrancoChinese complications?" f" "I am almost positive thlre will lie no general war. It is against iho in terests of all the European powers and of the entire commercial world for China to wage war to-day with a west ern nation. To the Chinaman we are all alike—all western barbarians. They recognize no difference. If England and America went to war it would simply be a fight between two coun tries, but in China a quarrel with France means war to the whole western world. A difference with means trouble to all." t, "To ex'plain, I have onTy to "relate an incident that happened during my stay in Canton. One day a Portugese employed at. the custom house quarreled with a. fellow-employe, a Chinaman, and a scuffle ensued. They were near the water, and the Chinaman fell in and drowned. As soon as his coun trymen learned the fact they started for the foreign quarter, and proceeded to Back and burn the houses of all the 'barbarians' alike. As a class the people do not like foreigners, and it is dangerous for an American or European to live among them."

"How about their navy "They undoubtedly possess some fine vessels, from English and German builders. They number among their fleet several swift cruisers, ironclads and rams and it is only now and then you see the picturesque old Chinese junk, so familiar to us in prints. Their vessels are all officered and manned by Chinamen they are clean, well-kept, neatly painted snd heavily armored, but there their efficiency ends. They are not capable of competing with the French on the water under the most favorable circumstances, and their fine ships would fall an easy prey to the wiley Frenchman." "Have they plenty of soldiers?" was asked. "They can get any quantity of men, but they have no means of equipment, little drill and hardly any discipline. I witnessed the drill of a body of cavalrymen one day at Shanghai, and I had all I could do to refrain from laughing. The whole thing was a perfect farce. On the horses was a sort of feather-bed platform, on top of which was perched the soldier, carrying a bow and arrows and a short wooden sword danglingat his side. They made wild charges at an imaginary, shooting away with their arrowB at a target, but a handfull of European riflemen would have picked them off in short order. The breach-loading rifle, in the hands of one hundred well-drilled men, would be more than a match for a thousand of their troops. The climate would be more deadly to the European than they would be. In their forts, however, I noticed some heavy guns, probably of German manufacture." "Has France many vessels on the Chinese coast already." "The French fleet in Chinese waters is not composed of very heavy vessels, but their lorce is large, and they are adding to it every day. "In the Tonquin affair," said Admilal Croaby, in conclusion, "China will hold out as long as she can, but she must inevitably give in to French power."

walls of the fort with an advertisement* and the conductors of the Herald were peremptorily notified to remove the obnoxious .sign. But it seems that Fort Lafayette is built Of a peculiarly porous- Stehe, and *b«t the embryo Raphael who painted The, Herald, price two cents," had used his white lead with no-unsparing hand. A corps of the Herald's employes went down the bay with erasers, patent SOlulions for- removing grease from clothes, and gallons of benzine. But it was of no use. Like the blood on tho key which Mw. Bluebeard dropped, I ho deep stain cooid'not tre removed. Then a board of officers went to -the foi and held a consultation. The Herald was told to remove the marks even if ie was necessessary to crtt a- foot deep into the stone, The work was at once begun, and, according to the last reports, the stonecutters have gone some twelve inches into the stone without being able to destroy the ruffianly defacement.
STRANGER THAN FICTION.
A Scene iu Washington What the Changes of Time Bring Abo at Washington Gazette.
Twenty years ago in. this city a lady was married to an army officer, and a year afteward a plump girl baby blessed the union. Msjor W, and his wife subsequently quarreled and parted, Mrs. W. taking the child with her to Sail Francisco, where after a few years Bhe secured a divorce, and afterward married a Mr. B. in the "Golden City." Her second husband died in the course of time, and about a year or two Bince she made her wAy back to this city, with ber daughter, who had grown to beautiful womanhood, and secured a position in one of theA" paitments ,,
Major V/. left Washington shortly after his separation from his wife. He was mustered out of service, settled down in a western city and married again."
The Whirl gig of time brought him to the national capital, where he became a government clerk. This was sopce time before the arrival of his first wife. Time had dealt gently with both of them, the eai-marks of the destroyer telling more plainly on the Major by slight stoop in the shoulders and plentiful sprinkling of gray hairs.
One day not long since the Major passed his first wife on Pennsylvania avenue in company with a pretty young lady. He had not heard from her for fifteen years, and knew nothing of her whereabouts during that time. She knew him, but did not care to recognize him, for she had not known of his life since they ^parted. The Major looked long and wistfully at the former partner of hiB bosom,' who though slightly aged, bore pleasing traces of her former beauty, and the thought struck him as he looked at her beautiful companion, "This ie daughter." ..
After a search of some weeks he discovered that his former wife and daughter resided on Capitol Hill. He addressed them a letter the wife d«d not respond, but allowed her daughter to do so. The latter met her father by appointment away from her mother' home. The meeting is said to have been an affecting one. Since that time the Major has showered upon his long lost girl not only his parental love, but rare and interesting gifts, and the twain can be seen together on Penn sylvania avenue any fair day, mixing mou£V,e ,.u In nrwl lm« made no sign To, one whom she once loved, and who did not treat her kindly, she alleges, in "auld lang syne."
The reality of the above story sur passes the romances we Bee week to week upon the dramatic stage, and only reminds us of the old, old truism that "truth iB stranger than fiction."
Lost Fathers and Diamonds. New York World. When enterprising young ladies in Chicago are in search of lost parents and diamond studs they should search for them on trains coming from the west and not on trains coming from the east. So the beautiful young lady has discovered who, as Mr. Dewitt C. Pease of this city stepped from a railroad car in Chicago, threw her arms affectionately around him and ex claimed, rapturously between kisses: "Oh, papa! dear papa! I'm bo"glSd"JQ,urMilitary you've come!" The expected parent returned the filial affection with interest, for he continued to press the demonstrative daughter closely to his heart after she had discovered her error, unti! he handed her over to a policeman, who found Mr. Pease's diamond stud in her hand. "That's a new trick here!" exclaimed the astonished ofcer. "It's a very old one in New York," quietly replied Mr. Pease, as he fastened his recovered diamond on the bosom of his Bhirt.
The incident shows the advantage of living in New York. If Mr. Pease had been a resident of some sleepy city like Boston or Philadelphia, or had come from the unsophisticated west, he would have lost his diamond and gone on his way in a tremor of pleasurable excitement over the acceptable mistake.
Yet New Yorkers are occasionally duped. Horace Greeley, although lie "took the papers," was once sought to be victimized at the well-worn "dropped pocketbook" game. The man who picked up the book, plethoric with bogus money, right at Mr. Greeley's feet, was compelled to go out of town immediately to see his sick wife, and begged the loan of $50 in advande of the award which would surely l|e offered if Mr. Greeley would keep the book. Mr. Greeley consented, and only saved himself bv taking the $50 out of the book. The man remonstrated. "It will not do to touch that money," he said "you had bettor give me $50 out of your own, pocket,1" "Bless my soul, my friend," exclaimed the innocent Horace, "I never carried as much money as that with me in niy life!" The man impatiently snatclied the book ont of Mr. Greeley's hands and hurriedly left to visit his sick wife.
Mrs. Langtry in Washington. Washington Special. f, Mrs. Langtry visited the Capitol today. She was shown around by Senaator Bayard. The two were followed by a crowd of open-eyed gazers, sometimes numbering two hundred. The women, some of whom were pritti& than the Lily, formed the greatar part of the gazers. Mrs. Langtry was richly, but plainly dressed. A half-vail over her face was a cnriosity-bafHer $o those who wanted to see her without paying the price of adoiision to Ford's Opt-ra-house, where she is playing this week.
