PERSONAL.—"Mr. George C. Harding, for some time past editorially connected with this paper, has gone to Louisville to take charge of the city department of the Ledger, the new Democratic daily which is to be ushered into existence this week. Mr. Harding is a genial gentleman and a pungent writer. He is a thorough journalist, and understands the wants ot the present generation of newspaper reader.- He has our best wishes."—Cincinnati Enquirer.

George is well known by many of our citizens, having once resided in this city. I He is known as one of the spiciest and I most brilliant paragraphias ofthe present! age of journalism. May he never lack for items in his new position, is the best wish one city editor can make for another.

Mr. D. K. Alexander, of Effingham, Illinois, and a gentleman of large fortune, is stopping in tlje city ''looking about" with a view of making it his future residence. We hope he may, as he is a very public-spirited gentleman, and will be a very valuable addition to our city.

IXILSSON.—Of

course our citizens are

looking forward with a lively interest to the great event of the season—the appearance of M'lle Nilsson at the Opera House to-morrow night. We know of ladies who have prepared three or four costumes, varying according to the season, in which to attend this concert, and each time have been disappointed. We wish to assure each that the peerless songstress will certainly appear this time and admonish them to have no uneasiness regarding the matter. It will be perfectly proper and safe for the young ladies of the city to retire to rest to-night

DANVILLE (Ind.) "girls of tho period" chew snuff.—Chicago Times. We understand that the Danville "girls of the period" have organized a a "snuffing sorosjs", which snuffed in the breeze a scent of the fumes of whisky, which a Greencastle man proposes to sell in that city, in connection with running a billiard saloon and gambling den, and immediately appointed a committee to wait on thegeutlemau aforesaid, upon

Another victim of the evils of the designing young scapegrape, Elmer B. Campbell alias M. J. Holmes, who lias victimized three of our hotels, Upon his first appearance here he claimed to boa member of the troupe that was to support. John E. Owens, at the Opera House, and registered his name as M. .1. Holmes, Chicago, We understand that he did undertake to play the part of "Lawyer Timid," failing in the attempt to play the lawyer, but succeedingnobly in personating" Timid.'' He was then dismissed, and "cut on lijs Ijoaid bill" at the National and Buntiu houses, having stopped at both places. His next appearancc here was a few weeks since when he represented himself as the agent of Riehing's Opera Troupe, and giving his name as Elmer B. Campbell, andac* tually engaged the Opera House for that troupe and left ai* advertisement at this office but we, not thinking him a responsible party, did not insert the adv.," but instead gave him a personal that was not calculated to favorably recommend him to the tender care of hotel keepers, especially "Cam" Buntin ofthe Terre Haute House of this city.

ambitious amateur who had put up the play of the "Lady of Lyons" as a complimentary testimonial to himself, appeared before the curtain at the end of the first act and addressed the audience as follows: "Ladies and gentlemen, with your kind permission, I will conclude the evening's entertainment by singing 'I would not die in Springtime,' as I find the part of Claude a little too hefty for me."

WORCESTER, Mass., has a rqilk vender who occqpies a rooaj 'fitted up with a iarge tank or dan, holding about 180 gallons, into which pure milk is put.

Meanwhile the committee referred to called on a saloon keeper in town, who is said to have some respectability left, not having been iu the business long, and prevailed on him to convert his saloon into a grocery store, which he agreed to do, tho village to patronize him. We think the Danville "girls of the period" set an example that would be well for many citizens in our fair land to follow.

Feb.

15.—Prompt

quiry at the Navy Department revealed the fact that the steamer sighted on the 23th of January by a British captain, met with a response which seerns to indicate that the vessel was the Tennessee.

The probable whereabouts of the other United States men-of-war serving ip the Gulf of Mexico is considered in forming tlieestimate. The only two steamers in the United States navy similarly rigged to the Tennessee, iu the Qulf, are the Severn, Admiral Lee's flagship, and the Congress, both of which, though somewhat smaller, have a resemblance to the Tennessee. The latest reports to the Department almost precludes the idea that the vessel sighted ou the 2Sth could have been either of those steamers.

The Severn arrived at Kingston on the 20th, and was still there on the 28tli. The Congress was at Key Wrest on the 24th, and the probability is strongly iu favor of her remaining there for rome time. The Yantie, Nantucket and Swatera, all much smaller and differently rigr ged from the Tennessee, are cruising about San Domingo, but it is hardly possible that either of them could have been mistaken for the Tennessee.

The statement of Secretary Robeson, regarding the Tennessee, that it is too soon by ten days to expect regular advices from her, and no eastwardly means ot communication have been employed, does much to allay public anxiety. Still there is considerable solicitude felt^ especially by those who have friends on board,

'0'«B£SSI0SAL SU5IMAKY.

WASHINGTON,

Mr. Butler, of Massachusetts, offered the following as a substitute for the second resolution

Resolved, That the House of Representatives recommend that the Secretary of War refuse, at the graduation of the first class, the customary furlough or leave of absence, but that "every member of the class be at once on their graduation ordered to their'duties as officers of the irmy, and that nq leave be granted to any of them for one year.

Mr. Johnston offered the following additional resolution: Resolved, further, That tho House of Representatives recommend to the Secretary qf War to convene a court of inquiry to examine into the conduct ot the officers on duty at West Point Academy, with the view to ascertain whether they connived at and tried to keep from the public aqd the War Department the movings done by the f^rst class of cadets, thereby encouraging insubordination and violations of conduct at the Academy, and if found guilty, that they be relieved from duty at the institution.

Mr. Benjamin asked leave to offer an additional resolution, as follows: Resolved frrt/icr, That in tho opinion of the House of Repressntattves, the Military Academy at West Point has outlived usefulness, and ought to be abolished.

Mr. Kelsey objected to that resolution being offered. Without disposing of the question the House at 4:30 took recess till 7:30, the evening session for general debate only.

Senate,

The House joint resolution, appropriating $100,000 to Qeorge F. Robeson, in recognition of his services in saving the life of Secretary Seward, was taken up on motion of Mr. Hamliu, who said that such services would have been recognized by any other government, and that if the thing was to be done at all it should be done gracefully. Passed.

Mr. Pratt presented a joint resolution from the Indiana Legislature £r an appropriation for completing the harbor at Michigan City, Lake Michigan. Ordered to be printed and referred.

Mr. Wilson introduced a bill to provide for the selection of cadets to the Military and Naval Academies. It was referred.

In making such appointments Representatives are require^ to, select one from three applicants standing highest after the competitive examination conducted by a committee of three residents in the districts who are to be designated by said Representatives. This bill also prohibits the examination or admission within two years of any candidate who fails to pass examination at the*Military or Naval Academy.

Mr. Sumner then called up House bill relating to telegraphic communication between the United States and foreign countries,

Mr. Bayard said that ocean telegraph enterprises had been delayed by apprehension on the part of foreigners that there would be some interference with that system communicated by the United States. Congress ought not to hesitate to express its desire for the success of such enterprises, and he regarded the bill as affording an excellent opportunity for such expressions

AT-

Mr. Isye inquired whether the bill contained any limitation as to the cost necessary.

Mr. Bayard said it did not, and did not think it should. Mr. Nye then offered and advocated the amendment limiting the charge for a message of ten words to Europe to five dollars.

Mr. Sumner opposed the amendment as uncalled for in view of the carefully prepared provisions of the bill.

Mr. Nye said the cable companies were in the habit of circulating false reports of the breaking of their cables as a pretext to enable them to double their rates. For one he was not disposed to be left entirely (it the mercy of English capitalists. tjprdier the restrictions he proposed sufficiently large dividends could be made by any company.

Without action the Senalf, at 6 qjclock, adjourned.

Mr. Beck, from the Conference Committee on the West Point Military Academy appropriation bill made a report, which was agreed to.

Mr. Brooks, of Massachusetts, called up the contested election case of Sheaf against Tillman, from the Fourth Congressional District of Tennessee. The resolution declares Sheaf, the contestant, not entitled to a seat, and that Tillman, the sitting member, is, and that Sheaf should be paid $4,500

for expenses

of contest. The resolution was agreed to without discussion, somewhat to the surprise of Mr. Brooks, who had arranged to have an hour's delay, but much to the amusement and satisfaction of the House.

Mr. Brooks, however, moved to reconsider the vote, and that motion being a debatable one he proceeded to deliver a speech in favor of the report. The discussion continued a couple of hours, when the resolutions were again agreed to.

Mr. Asper moVed to proceed with consideration of the report of the Committee on Military Affairs, on the West Point Academy difficulties. Agreed to.

The resolutions reported by the committee are as follows: Ilesolved, That the House of Representatives recommend the Secretary of War to restore cadets Baird, Barnes and I Fleckinger to the military academy at West Point, to take effect with the beginning of the next academic year, and permit them to proceed with the fourth class without further punishment for offences heretofore committed by them.

Resolved, That the House of Representatives recommend the Secretary of War to convene a Coqrt of Inquiry, for the purpose of ascertaining what members of tho first class were instigators and leaders in the affair of January 3d, at the United States Military Academy, and that such leaders and instigators beat once dismissed from the Military Academy, and the remaining members of the class engaged in the affair be punished at the discretion of a general court martial, to be convened for their trial.

•--.g

French elections have only too

perfectly justified the apprehensions we expressed in regard to the fatal effects of Republican dissensions. The Government of National Defense was deprived beforehand of the moral force it could have exerted among the peasantry if it had been compact and united. As it was, the only symbols of authority these ignorant rustics could see or comprehend were tUe local gentry, who were usually of the traditional monarchical parties, and the clergy, who of course supported candidates hostile to the Republic. Tho result is what might have been expected. In the principal cities, where newspapers and public mcetings have enabled the voters to gain some idea of the questions at issue, the Republican candidates have been generally successful. In the rural districts the three monarchical parties appear to have divided almost the entire field among themselves. Gen. Le Flo and Trochu have been returned by their faithful Bretons from Finisterre Mr. Thiers has been elected by an enormous majority, and other prominent Orleanists wHl take places in the Assembly prepared to advocate the claims of the Count of Paris to the throne. For the shame and disgrace of France, there will be many Imperialists,as at present reported, and a large number of men elected as the candidates of the clergy. The Ultramontanes will doubtless be in favor, as their first choice, of the Count of Chambonj, but failing to elect him, they will be much more likely to sell out to the Empire than to trust the rigid honesty ofthe House of Orleans or the radical liberalism of the Republic.—Kew York Iribunc.
