The county commissioners adjourn today. The Athenian Literary Society entertain this evening at the Olive Branch Mission. Some ten additional naturalization papers were made out to-day at the Clerk’s office. A marriage license has been issued to Jesse D. Mclntrup and Emma Baughmann. Gaines Cook on a plea of guilty to grand larceny sets two years in the State Penitentiary. Wm. McFerris and George Lovell were drunk, all of which constituted the proceedings at the City Court this morning. John Driscoll, an aged typo, and one of the oldest in the city, was reported dead this afternoon. He has been ill a long time. SchwabacherA Selig have brought a $1,500 suit against Kavenaugh & Co. for whisky furnisned them during the Exposition. Michael Gray, who was taken in last ni^ht for some pettv offense, scaled the Station house fence this morning and iffade his escape, A jury of eleven men are trying a case in Judge Newcomb’s Court, as the bailiff was unable to find a twelfth juror who had not served in that capacity within the past year. Parties were before the County Commissioners this morning for the purpose of having the place of voting in the Eighth Ward changed from the No. 3 Engine house to a more central location. The remains of Arthur B. Fox will be deposited in the vault Sunday, preparatory to nnal removal to Michigan, to which State the entire family design returning. Mrs. Fox to-day is very ill. Judge Elliot, one of the best paid officials in the city, and who owes his position to Republican votes, still fails to define his present political beliefs. Inasmuch as he has been honored so much it is but right that he should speak out. The physicians making a post mortem examination of the remains of Fox, have concluded their work and will report to the Coroner’s jury this evening, death from congestion of the lungs. Chief Wilson reports no traces of morphine discovered. Dr. W. B. McDonald has been appointed Superintendent of the City Hospital by the trustees of that institution. His appointment was made in accordance with a wish expressed by Dr. Davis previous to his decease. and gives very general satisfaction. Keri Munter, who paid a $500 contempt fine in Judge Perkins’ Court in July last, and was afterward indicted by the Graftd Jury for attempting to bribe a “juror in the same Court, was this morning arraigned on the above indictment and entered a plea of guilty. The Court assessed a fine of $100 and ten days imprisonment in the county jail. The New York Sun of Wednesday has this item abont a former resident; "As the Rev. H. Stringfellow, of Montgomery, Alabama, who is attending the Episcopal Convention, stood yesterday at Amity street and Broadway, looking at the marching of the Seventh, a pickpocket snatched at his watch and chain, which were presented him by the Fnion prisoners after their release.” An odd arrangement of mirrors within Harry Craft’s show window gives a complete and magnificent view of the jewelry beauties therein displayed, a glance from the pavement ontside apparently presenting an immense square, and duplicating the stock at least six times. The design is due to the taste and arrangement of Gns. Craft, and is beautiful aa well a* unique iu general effect,

Soatliern Reconstruction—▲ Big Deficiency Bill, Etc. BOCTHEHN BKCOXSTBUCTION, The Chronicle editorially doubts the efficiency of the Southern reconstructon measure of Congress, says some important measure has been omitted, and advises Congress to correct it THE SfPBEME COt'BT Meets on Monday. Several Justices are already here. -The docket is now two years behind. COLD COMFOBT. Senator Spencer and Representative Hays of Alabama, called on Postmaster Jewell yesterday to urge that additional special officers go to Alabama to investigate the killing of mail agent Ivey. Mr. Jewell declined, and said if Ivey had been attending to his duties instead of distributing inflammatory speeches, he would not have been molested. [Special to the Cincinnati Commercial of to-day. J A BIQ DEFICIENCY BILL AHEAD. Tt is becoming painfully apparent that ther£ will be a deficiency bill of extraordinary large proportions to present to Congress at the approaching session. The precise amount of the sum to be asked for to remedy the miscalculations of last spring can not of course be definitely ascertained, but it seems quite certain that it can not fall much below $3,000,000, while it seems altogether probable that it will reach $5,000,000. The various departments are already running ashore, and in s.ome cases going in debt, trusting to Congress to help them out next winter. The Postmaster General finds his appropriations entirely too small for the demands upon them and will doubtless by the 1st of December be in debt to the railroad companies alone to the tune of a million or a million and a half. Similar instances are afforded in other departments. Congress made a great display of effort in the way of retrenchment and economy last winter, “and it was practiced entirely in the way of cutting and paring down Department estimates. To carry out these retrechments ostensibly a number of clerks have been discharged through the summer. Whether all that could be spared have been dropped is not clear. There are good reasons for believing that many more could go without impairing the efficiency of the civil service unless the consequent relaxation of the dignity of Department officials would have that effect. Be that as it may, the country may rest assured that the greatest possible publicity was given to every dismissal, and that each instance lost none of its due effect. Business to-day is transacted with the usual ease and rapidity, while officials are complaining that the reductions have been too extensive and have done harm. The fact that they are already beginning to exceed their appropriations or are going in debt does not indicate, in all cases, reduced appropriations. They have not made the corresponding necessary and practicable contraction in expenditures, but in many cases it indicates nothing else. A point to bear in mind is that the retrenchment of last winter was in the way of saving at the spigot of necessary expenditures, while the leaks at the bung, the pouring forth of money for jobs of small degree, was checked very slightly. Instead of saving the fifty thousand dollars mven to Cowles & Brega for the use of their humbug process to keep moths out of army clothing which is one of the most notorious swindles ever known in Washington, Congress made necessary the discharge of the clerks in the Departments, when it was practicable to keep the fifty thousand dollars and discharge the clerks too. No effort was made to prevent the stealing and cribbing to the amount of millions, under the guise of appropriations for the improvement of rivers and harbors, and various other objects, but a great hullaballoo was made over the apparent reductions in the amounts appropriated to keep the Government machinery in operation. The officials here have failed to carry out their proportion of this sort of economy, and have been as nonchalant in their disregard of Congressional action as though they bad private assurances that their excess of expenditure* would be made good next winter. LOUISIANA.

Colored Bollooaatle. Baltimore, October 9—George Washing* ton, colored, made an ascension in a hot air balloon from Howell’s circus in the lower town yesterday. He attained a height of 500 feet when the balloon descended rapidly, struck the court-house flag-staff and became impaled. The spectators were horrified. Washington jumped 30 feet and was badly shaken up, but no bones were broken. NKW YORK CITY.

Weatoa’a Failure. New Yoex. October 9.—Weston has succeeded in making the third failure in his attempted five hundred mile walk. He has only walked 245 miles in four days. He is still limping around the Hippodrome track, and will probably continue to do so until midnight to-morrow. A MW YORK.

GERMANY. Berlin, October 9.—The Spenersche Zeitung, in an editorial on the Schleiswig-liol-stein question, says that Russian diplomatists openly state that it is the intention of Russia to assist Denmark. This statement is believed as coming from authoritative sources, and causes comment in political circles here. ENGLAND. London, October 9.—A petition has been presented in the Court of Chancery to wind up the affairs of the Little Emma Mining Company. Advices from Buenos Ayres state that a battle is imminent between the Government forces and the insurgents. The latter is being rapidly reinforced by malcontents from the surrounding provinces. The insurgents nave appeared in force In several towns, depredating upon the inhabitants. A number of the leaders have been arrested.

Political Affairs. Etc. New Orleans,October 9.—Mayor Wilt* has withdrawn as the Democratic nominee for the Mayoralty. Packard, Republican, and Burk, Conservative, have resigned from the Advisory Board, alleging as a reason other duties. Colonel Pennybacker has been relieved from command of the post at his own request, and will rejoin his regiment. CoL Brooke succeeds him. Four companies of the 7th cavalry arrived yesterday. At a mass meeting of colored citizens last evening resolutions were adopted reflecting keenly upon Kellogg and denouncing his course as unjust to the blacks, and ungenerous to the whites. A committee of fifty was appointed to effect harmonious relations between the races. The resolutions assert fealty to the Republican party. An address to the colored people, signed by Pinchbeck and others, embodying the sentiments of the resolutions, is also issued. Two companies of United States troops arrived at Shreveport last evening. MASSACU USETTS,

MR. (KHOOLAHAN’S MISTAKE. Married When Drunk and Repenting When Sober. [From the Virginia (Nev.) Enterpriaa] An amusing scene occurred in Justice Young’s Court-room an evening or twosince. Two sons of the ‘‘ould sod,” full of "ehainligntning” and law, rushed in and advancing to the Justice’s little law pulpit at the rear of the court room, both began talking

at once.

“One at a time, if you please.” said the

Judge.

“Judge—yer honor—will I ehpake, thin!”

said one of the men.

“Silence!” roard his companion. “I am here! Let me talk. Phwat do you know

about law?”

“Keep still yourself, sir,” said the Judge;

“let him say what he wants.”’'

“Well, I want me naim aff the paiper.

That’s phwat I want,” said the man. “Off what paper,” said the Judge.

“Well, an the piiper; ye ought to know phwat paiper. Shure, ye married me, they

say.”

“Tojwhom!” asked the Judge. “Some famale, sir, and I don’t want her, sir. It don’t go! and I want me naimeaff the

the paiper.”

“Silence!” roared the friend, bringing his huee fist down upon the little pulpit, just under the judge’s nose, with a tremendous thwack. "Silence! I am here. Phwat do you know about law? Sure, ysr honor, it was Tim McCloskey’s wife that be married— his widdy, I mane. You married them, yer

honor.”

“And I was dhrunk at the time, sir. Yls sir, an’ I was not a free aigent, and I don’t know a thing about it. sir—divil roawst me! I want me name aff the paiper—I repudiate,

“Silence! Let me spake. Phwat do you know about law?” bringing his fist down upon the judge’s desk. “But I was dhrunk ; I was not at the time a free aigent” “Silence! lam here to shpake! It does not depind on that at all. It depinds—and there is the whole pint, both in law and equity—it depinds whether was the Woman a sole thrader or not at the time this marriage was solemnated. That is the pint, both in law and equity!” “But I was dhrunk at the time. Divil roawst me if I knowed I was gittin married. I was not a free agint. I want the'Judge to taik me naime aff the paiper. It don’t go.” The Judge tried to explain to the man that, drunk or sober, he was married to the woman fast enough, and if he wanted a divorce he must go to another court “Divil burn me!” cried the man, “if I go to another coort Ye married me, and ye can unmarry me, Taik me name aff the

paiper!”

“Silence!” cried the friend, bringing his fist down in close proximity to the Judge’s nose. “Phwbat do you know about law? I admit, Judge, that he must go to a higher court; that is (down comes the fist) if the woman can prove (whack) that she was at the time the marriage was solemnated (whack) a regularly ordained sole thrader (whack. On this pint it depinds, both in law an

equity.”

“I have had enough of this!” cried the Judge; "I cannot divorce you. You are married, and married you must remain for

all I can do!”

“Ye won’t taik me naime aff the paiper thin!” 1 “I would not mend the matter," said th*

Judge.

“Ye won’t taik it aff?” “No; I won’t!” fairly yelled the Judge. “Silence!” cried the partner, bringing down his fist and raising a cloud of dost under the Judge’s nose. “It depends whether, at the time, the woman was a regular

*Get out of here,” cried the Judge, ‘Tve had about enough of this!” at the same time

rising.

“Ye won’t taik itaff? Vexy well, thin, I’ll go hoam and devorce meselL Divil roawst me. I’ll fire the thatch; I will—” Here he glanced toward the front door* his under jaw dropped, he ceaaed speaking,’ and in a half-stooping poeture he went out of the back door of the office like a shot The valiant friend and legal adviser also glanced toward the door, when he, too, u? U n, ed ^ )and, ? 500 . t * d in the footsteps of his illustrious principal. A look at the dbor showed It darkened by a woman about 8 feet in height and so broad as to fill it almost from side to side. The Judge took a look at this mountain of flesh, doubled up. and was about to take the back track, but thought better of it and took refuge behind his Uttle law pulpit The mountain advanced, gave utterance in a sort of internal rumble, and then, amid $re, smoke *nd burning lava, belched out:

A Rnanlng Landlord. Last evening a colored barber went to Richardson’s Railway House iu Indianola, and called for his wife, whom he stated should not work at such a disreputable house, which last remark kind o’ riled the proprietor, who made a lunge for th* negro and a lively chase followed, and the fellow was Anally taken in charge by an officer at the river bridge. He was discharged this morning, as Richardson failed to appear against him. Returned. Bob Losey, Deputy City Marshal, to-day returned from Chicago with George Howard, the nimble-heeled little rascal who gave him the slip some weeks ago while being taken from the City Court to jail. Howard was arrested in Chicago for petit larceny, and was identified by a detective as a party much wanted In this city, and word being sent to Chief Wilson, Bob Losey undertook the contract of returning him. It is needless to intimate, Howard is now safe in jail. A Pitiful Slglai. Thomas Redmond, of this city,was lodged in the station-house last evening by the Sheriff of Vanderburg county, where he was found wandering about hopelessly insane, and brought here for safe keeping. Until quite recently Redmond was a respectable, hardwj§rking man, but his family relation* were not the most pleasant and to add to his troubles his son getting into difficulty was sent to State prison, and these matters so worked on his mind as to bring him to his present condition. He fails to recognise his most intimate acquaintances, and does nothing but wander about his cell and mumbling to himself unintelligible words and showing every indication of being hopelessly insane. He will be removed to the Asylum for treatment as soon as the papers can be made out. John Coburn, General Elliot and Itobert McCary last night addressed the Eleventh Ward Republicans! and at the coraer of North street and the canal Kennedy talked to the Democracy. It is needless to remark that Kennedy failed to explain his Delaware county record.
