Btar very cen slbly remarks: If Martin Irons engaged Ina conspiracy to tap telegraph wires the fact will doubtless bo proven at his trl.il, and he will be punlslicd accord ingly. It Is essential to the continuance of public confidence In telegraphy as n means of private communication that thu seerrcy of dispatches shall be iu lo late. Are they o now? Ono of the parties to the conlioveisy In the South wet is Jay Gould. He Is alio the ab solute master of tho principal telegraph system of the country. Has he access to the dispatches passing between the leaders of the slrlkeV If he has he U lu uo better position morally than Martin Irons would he If It should b shown that the latter really engaged In a con splrncy to tap the wires, lir. Goud.has no more right lo see the messages pass ing between Messrs. Irons and Powder ly than Mr. Irons has to see those pass ing between Messrs. Gould and Hoxio. Perhaps tills phase of the matter might prove wortli examining by the congres sional committee. BroailMa'sM York Letter Special to the C.usuon Advocad:.

I look down from the top shelf of my library, where It has lain many years in honored leposo, a dusty copy of the Xrv.ijate UnleHdar; a well thumbed volume of the "PiiMte's Own Hook," and another rare tome entitled "Twenty years in Sing Sing." Each of these admirable work! Is profusely illustrated wlih the portraits of Individuals who have per ished on the gallows, died In M'son, or who have been killed in frays; noted pickpockets, counterfeiters, burglars and cilmluals of every conceivable descrin Hon and degree; and yit. the facts look as If lliey were tho portrait gallery of a foreign mltsionary society alunijidde of the villainous mugs of tluse NVw Yoik Aldermen. It Is not surpiising with such a crew that they Hole iho Broad way franchise; the only wonder Is that they did r.ot walk off with the entire city, body and bones.

Tho death cf poor Maud Stewart a week ago, set me to thinking whether or not there is a special matrimonial code for the dramatic profession. Old Dion IioueIcau.lt, who for years ac knowledged Agnes Robertson as his wife, pu 1 bv her had quite a family put her aside as easily as you put eff an old shoe, wit! out the slightest formality of a dlrorce; an I now past seventy, gel ling well on toward tho eighties, he ap peals among us with a spick and span new wife, forly or fifty years his junior, ami still escapes States prison, banian Terle. Wallack's leading nun, has a plurality of wivns, If not more, the Inst being Minnie Conway, whom ho coast d swiy from Levy the cornel-player, who him- elf had a biacc or more. Tho late escapade of Miss Maude Miller is loo well known to need comment; married as she admitted to the sou of Steele Mackaye. she divorced ht-rself an 1 mar ried Louden McCormaek, and they both cscapo the consequences, though the neiulty of the olTence is St.ites prison, bhcok and Palmer were partners In the Union Sirare Theatre; Mr. Palmer took a fancy to Mrs. Shook Mrs. fdiook took a fjney to Mr. Palmer; Shook docs r.ot appear to have objected, for a ill voice was procured on tome giound on other, and Mrs. Shook became Mrs. i Mime-. Strange to relate, this little episode ilo.-s not appear to havo dis turbed the life-long friendship- of the parties, and It is said that Mr. shook Is always a welcome guct at the Palmer mansion. The case of Lillian Uusscll which I alluded to In my letter of a couple of weeks ae;n is a case in point. Slieran av, ay from her husband, Dave Liahiim. to join her fortunes with Ed ward folomou the composer; and now, it is tftid that she is tired of Solomon, anil Solomon himself lias several wives or substitutes therefor. But one of the most lUgiant cases is that of the actor DeL'clIvillo; he appears to be a lesnlar mathcr, in fact, li eie is no telling how many wives ho has: he left his Knglisli wife for an AustialUn, ami tbe Aus tralian for Maud Stewart: lie is a gen tleman of laste, aud generally selects the best in tlicir.aiket. His scandalous infra Hons of the code matrimonial have kipt him In hot v.atrr heie for the rast iwojtarr. but like Oiicand Terle and Dion lioitclcault the public seem to trouble theimelves very liitlo about It bo lontr as they act their parts well; but in order to keep this thing straight and within tho pale of tho law, I think we hail better have a n-paraie Dramatic .Matrimonial Code, Willi privileges cf the most liberal and enlightened char acter.

In th:s, however, whllo the District Gor-1 ernuicnttlld Its share, the Federal Gov ernment failed.

Notwithstanding these illlllcnltles tl.o' veterans triumphed. Including tho Dis-' tiict militia mote than two thousand' men joined In the parade.

When It Is considered that the men who responded, with such promptness lo tho call to arms, consti tuted ttm tlrtt rnliinlD- li-nm,. tl,t were mustered Into the service of the united htates, aim that the people of Virginia, against whom thev were called upon to contend, weto separated from them only by the width of a nairow river, and attached by ties both social and political, tho degree of "patriotism required to boldly face such a disunion of friendly ties needs no comment as to its quality. The question of open executive ses sions of ihe Senate Is just now receiving the attention of the members of that body. As yet the discussion has been a one-sided one, the speeches of Sena tors Plait, Logan and others, all favor ing public sessions. Tho Interest taken by tbe public In tho discussion Is de monstrated by the crowtled galleiles, and the eagerness with which the print ed accounts of the proceedings are sought by thoso whose duties prevent thoir personal attendance during the dlacusslon. The feature of the week In the nousc was the Itomels-llurd erection contest. The speech of Mr. Frnk Hurt! in ad vocacy of Ids right t( the seat held by Mr. Homels waslistcneM Jo with marked attention, and Is generally conceded to have been one cf the most eloquent speeches of the session. At tho clase of his remarks he was greeted with loud and long continued applause on t In door and In the galleiles. A vote helm: taken It was iWhW!

Probably theio Is no belter guace of the degree of Interest taken by the gen eral public In ihe. iniporlant questions discussed by Congtess than Is afforded by tho records of the Goi eminent Printing Offlcn of the orders received for printed speeches. These records show that the greatest demand has heeu for speeches upon the silver question. The largest order received this session was for William M. Scott's speech in sup port of a compromise of the silver ques tion. The secord largest order was for Heck's speech attacking the financial policy of the administration, which was called for by members of both parties.

Thero Is a renewal of the story that the President is to wed his ward, Miss Frances Folsotn, of I3n.Y,ilo, a young lady who made a very favorable. Inipics slon in society circles In Washington last year when the visited Miss Clove land at tho While House. At present tho young lady In question and her mother aro In Italy, and it Is alleged that a letter from tho latter to Mrs. Wellington, of Troy, h the basis for the report. Some pori-ons go so far as to assert that the wedding will take place at the White House In June, and quote Miss Folsom as authority that it will be a quiet affair. When the President be came Governor of New York it was staled that he was to marry Miss Fol som, but no attention was paid to the matter by the principals and It died out.

SoiTiiutN Pines, N.C., April 10. The generality of people irom the North who come to the South either on pleasure or ae pri apectors, come tilled full of notions.
