"A BIG SPEC."—We heard of a young man who sold the two reserve seats to the Nilsson. concert which he had secured some time since for himself and "sweetness" on yesterday, for the unprecedented sum of S10, when they only cost him $6, resulting in a clear profit of $4. He then sent his "sweetness," a note to the effect that he was quite unwell and would not be able to attend the concert, whereupon she accepted the company of his rival, and the young speculator now avers that he did not make as much as he had calculated upon, ail of which is "very sad."
A YOUNG ADONIS from a neighboring town, came to the city yesterday to attend the concert, bringing with him four young ladies, all of whom attended the concert with him but upon returning to the hotel, he received a gentle tap on the shoulder from Constable Kaufman, who informed him that he had a litttle bill against him for a small debt, in favor of a gentleman of this city, which he had forgotten to liquidate, and which he had incurred by buying some boot and shoes sometime since. He told the officer in piteous tones that four homeless virgins were under his protection, and he did not have lime to go to the city hotel, etc., but the officer was a stranger to pity, and informed Adonis that he would "pull him" if lie diU not secure or shell out. He Llitiii gave the officer his gold watch as security and went his way to protect his inrls.

lady to that is unquestiqnably new. This is the juror of popular superstition, and there are many who belong to this hapless genera. But there are jurymen of an entirely different class. There are old substantial citizens wjio have retired from business years ago, having accumulated comfortable competencies. Among the loungers about our court rooms are mauy men of this class. They are not lean or hungry-visaged, but are fat contented and—happy when lazily ensconced in the jury box, where they are accustomed to fcit all day and doze away the time with admirojiie patience, while the merits of the case of Jones t\s. Brown are being expounded, or while Bill Blunderbuss, the robber, is beiug tried for his life.
We have several of this class in our mind at this writing who have been regular attendants upon every court that has liecn in session here since we came to the city. We now have in view an old gentleman whose hair is silvered with the cares and sorrows of this eventful life who is a regular attendant at each
term
of olir Circuit, Criminal anj Common Pleas courts, and ou&ht-to be well versed in the profession which he is said 1,0 have represented for years, He is venerable and respectable, both in character and appearance, and would probably in disuantly repel the idea that the per diem of a juror had anything to do with bringing him there but there he is with unfailing regularity, and when called on to

"his country in tho capacity of a
juror he never refuses. He is but the type of a numerous class of hangers-on about the precincts of justice.

As to his mission, or even his own notion of it, we are ignorant.

He is not a noisy person, and is never known to raise bis voice, unless it may be on election day, whim he is patronized by the candidates and feels himself elated or on some other extraordinary occasion, when the native force of his character js brought out through immediate indulgence in stimulants.

It is still undecided at what time the Emperor will return to Germany, but it is thought that he will leave Versailles on the 23d, traveling through Strasbourg, Carlsruhe, Stuttgard and Munich, and visiting on his way the sovereigns who elected him Emperor, and who will fall into the train to grace his triumphal entry into Berlin. The Emperor will be in Berlin, March 8, when the first Diet of United Germany meets.

"WASHINGTON, February 10. House.
On motion of Mr. Maynard, it was ordered that on and after Saturday next, the House will meet at 11 o'clock.
Mr. stokes presented a petiti°n for a railroad charter frpni Cincinnati to Chattaqooga.
Mr. Wheeler gave notice that on luesday liext, after the reading of the journal, the Committee on Paciiic liailroads would report hack the Southern Paciiic Railroad bill for their immediate action.
The House then proceeded to the eonsidtiation of the report of the Military Committeeou the WestPoint Academy troubles.
Mr. Stevenson intimated liis apprehension lest action on the subject would be a precedent and that the House would have a West Point case every session. He had no objection to the resolution authorizing the restoration of the eandets of the fourth class but was opposed to tiie second resolution and thought that the House in adopting it would be transcrioing its jurisdiction.
Mr. johnston argued in support of the additional resolution offered by himself, ordering a oourt of inquiry into the conduct of the officers of the Academy. He charged that as against one cadet, Barnes, whom he himself had nominated, they had evinced malignity and hate, and had been guiiiy of falsehood and that the dropping Barnes t'rom the the rolls for deficiency, after a sham examination, was the most villainous portion of the whole trausaction. He referred to Gen. Upton's intimation in the cjise, in which he said "Barnes could be got rid of," and the "his [Johnston's] district had been wounded by the indignity." He dvclared that the record made up. against Barnes was false.
Mr. Niblack eulogized the character of Gen. Pitcher, and said that he was a brave and gallant officer, and a man of discriminating judgment and a high sense of justice in all the relations of life. General Pitcher had no superior in the army. He would vote for the first resolution but would vote against the second one. He sent to the Clerk's desk and had read a letter to himself from Gen. Pitcher who intimates that the committee are prejudiced against him, aud invites an examination intoeverything relating to the discipline of the Academy.
Gen. Pitcher further says: I haye carried a burden in the effort to harmonize asocial and religious feeling between the colored oadet and his companions that no one else in the laud has attempted. That effort will prove one of magnitude to any one who attempts it. It will be realized in Washington when honorable members are iu sucii close relations as those under which cadets live.

Mr. Shanks desired the people of his State to be represented in the protest against the West Point school. That school onght to be wiped out and its interests spread among several States instead of being concentrated into a school for »candai waich. had disgraced the nation.
The discussion was continued by Packard, of Indiana, and Stoughton, in support of the resolution and Dyer against it.
The hour allowed for discussion having closed, Garfield moved to reconsider the vote ordering the main question, so that he might have an opportunity of addressing the House.
Tue House proceeded to vote on the resolution and amendment. The first vote was taken on an amendment offered by Mr. Butler, of Massachusetts, to substitute for the second resolution, directing the expulsion of the ring-leaders of the first class and court martial the rest.
A resolution depriving the first class on graduation the customary furlough. The amendment wTas rejected. Yeas, 97: nays, 111.
The next vote was on Johnston's amendment as an additional resolution directing the Court of Inqdiry on the conduct of the officers of the Academy. The resolution was agreed to without ayes and nays, the vote on the division being 85 to 32.
The first resolution of the committee, directing the restoration of cadets Baird, Barnes and Frickinger, was agreed to without division. The next vote was on tiie second resolution of the committee directing the dismissal of the leaders and instigators of the first class, and court martialing the others.
Mr. Farnsworth moved to lay on the table this resolution and additional resolutions offered by Mr. Johnson. Negatived—33 to 109.
