A FODBTn report upon the pension bill Granting an increase to one-legged and oueaimcd soldiers and sailors has been presented in the U.S. Senate from tho pensions committee, prepared by Sen ator Van Wyevk and signed by himself and Senator Chilcott. Tho report which favors tho ifotisobill (No. 1,410), says: No reason i-xtnta why the soldier 'who carried the tnul;et and made the chaige should not receive (bo same amount for tho loss of a leg or other disability as a captain or a colonel. We must not for get the time .when we pledged all there was of value and gratelul renxmranco for those who fell, and provided care for their families and to those who should j receive i uMio employment without grudging and money from tho treasury without btiut. The promise to public position and employment has not been kept. Yet we hi,vo it in our power to fulfill tho other portion of the col tract by rendering in thopajmcnt by money a partial compensation of the h sses sus tained." This makes the fourth report from the committee on this bill, and goes to show that there aro yet a few peoplo lit the country who appreciate tho services rendered to the country by the eld soldiers. The Rev. Henry Cox, D. D., was Sfc Tetary of the Young Men's CLrstian As sociation in San Francisco, pastor of a mission church, and a United States pension agent. Thomas Hill was a blind and p&ralylia pauper in tho county alms house. Under the new law Hill was en titled to S7.278 in back pension, as a veteran of the Mexican an civil wr.r.,und to $72 a month for the remaii:d,r of his life. Senator Miller wrote to Cox at the suggestion of the Commissioner of Pen sions in Washington, asking him to pay particular attention to this award, as tho amount was unusually largo, and tho hfpless recipient might fall into swin dlers' hands uulcsi protected. Cox's method of getting control or the matter was to induce Hill to sign an irreokable power of attorney, authorizing him to take possessing of all the money; and when he had got tho cash he used it frr . personal specnlation ill mining. He prayed with his dupe, and Fang hymns to him, but this only allayed suspicion for a while. An investigation has refill ed in an exposure, but tho unfortunate veteran's fortnno is probably beyond the ireach of recovery. Graham said that the offitice wrs a penal ' one but he didn't bt-licvo that the case called for sovera punishment, a the eh -feudaut,he believed, acted rather through want of thought than by wicked dcslgt . Tho Court sentenced Consldine to pay a fine of $20, to undergo au imprison ment of three days, and to bo band from the right or suffrage for four years, and from the riijht of testifying as n witnesj in any court of law forever.

"My wile gave it to me." "Was that your wife? My dear fellow, I beg your pardon, but I give you my word of honor that I thought she was u Miss. There was nothing wrong I BRsure you." "I know that," replied the husband, "but I can't help thinking," he added with a laugh. "that for onco you made a fool of yom Belf." "I know it, but for hoaveu's sake don't say a word about it.

Freddy Gebhard after remains in town a few days proceeded but Friday night to Memphis, where Mrs. Longtry is play, ing at present. The roporteTs in town tried their utmost to get him to talk on the St. Ij5uU escapade but without suc cess. As an instanco of reportorial en terprise, however, a friend of mine, tho managing editor of nn enterprising after noon paper told me that on Saturday af ternoon he received no less than four despatches from reporters in as many cities along tho ronte, reading: "Gebhard passes through hero on bis way to Mt in puts, do you want special?"

Still in spite of that enough of Aldermon could begot together to favor it. Tho wrrk was done in the cheapest way, and the result is that there are constant leaks and breaks. I understand now that a number of property owners have quietly got together and are gathering evidence with a hope of first taking away its frau chiio from the American Steam Heating Company, hud second to havo ita officers criminally indicted for the injuries which several persous suffered. It is useless to proceed agaiust it in a civil suit, with a view of getting damages. The property is so laid out aud mortgaged that it is impossible to recover. The ball season wages merrily on. This is the last week before Lent, and ever body is anxious to make tho inott of it. Last evening the Elks ball was onjoyed at the Academy of Music. This is the great theatrical ball of the year, aud everybody in the "profesb," and e 'try body with a fondness for it is there, In former years the Elks always gave a fancy dress bill, but this year it was a civio affair. As the price of tickets bid b :en lowered, the throng was simply aw, ful and dancing was practically impossi hie. The best cUss of actors and ac tresses shown by their absence.

Understanding that n cleri cal posltlou was what was wanted tho Senator told her to mako her application In writing. Next day the good woman brought her formal application. The Senator and a friend looked over it and concluded that it ctenily showed the writer Incompetent for tho position she sought.

All tho appointments were on u sevile .ftf great elegance, nud tLo .affulr uuito equaled the bar quo t to the samo body list year. The table was laid for thirty six, thi symbolical number to which all such state banquets generally cotitorro. A lung mirror was laid down the center of the tible, with Its edgis nreathed with roses. In the lonlille wus set an Ineiian canoe, over three feet long, composed of rsa una wMlo carnations. tuo cross pieces or seats n-preeeuted by closely set white roses, aud tho body of the cauoe filled ith jacepicininot roses and their leaves.

Thirteen cour ses, with six accompanying wines, were rved, and beside the cluster of glasses and flowers a gilt embossed name card was laid at each plate. Dinner was an nounced a few minutes before 8 o'clock, and lasted over two hours. Tho toilets of tho ladies were of marked elegance. Last evening was one of those memor able occasions when one feels tho mighty throb of the myriad social pulses of a great capital. Funr lending house warni ng parties by Justice, Mrs. aud Miss Woods; the anniversary reception at the Spanish legation in honor of King Al fonso; the bull by General Benle to Miss Crocker of California, and a dancing party to young people ocly at the resi dence of Mr. August Peterson.

It may be a sign of tho pervers. ity of the human race, but thu fact re. mains all the same. It is the fashion at present in all circles to be athletic, aud therefore profess to be fond of boxing, wrestling nud sparring. Iu consequence it is no wonderjthat a professional like Billy Elnards would makefrom ten to fifteen thousand dollars n year giving lessons iu "the manly art," not ulo.ie to young and old men, but to children as well. Tho pugilist of modern limes set up us a "Professor," and his maunerand conversation when iu tho company of gentlemen, is quiet subdued and tho es sence of politeness. Next to pugilism cock fighting has become fashionable Under tho circumstances it is almost sad to see the frantic and vain efforts of the billiard table manufacturers, billiard room proprietors and expert billiardist to revive the niAuia for the cue aud hulls with which we were afflicted for the ast two winters. There is a msvemout in the annexed district to udd n new ward to to tho city, by taking in thai portion of Westidicster County which lays on Long IsIanelSaund this hide of New llochulle.

The neghcteid land above Port Moiris would then become exceedingly valuable. There is no doubt but thai before many years the City o New York will be extended to the Con nccticut line, including N;w Itochelle nod tho towns beyond, aud at a still late period Youkers mid the region above will eventually have to be b a allowed up by tho greit metropolis.

The case cauio mi before Magistrate Lu- keus, and judgment was entered in favor of the Guardians of the Poor, ou the ground that tho law would not anstaiu a r.'covery iu such a case. As Consldine was about to leave the magistrate's office, Thomas Birliw, of counsel for the Com mittee of One Hundred, had him arrest ed for perjury in swearing that, as au in spector, he was not directly or Indirectly int rested iu any bet or wager on the re sult of the election.

Congress is rather stupid than sensa tional just now, the tariff question occu pying most of thetimo. There is plenty ot food lor thought ana discussion in this subject, trail the truth about it gets out, but there is no telling just what will happen to it in tho present mixed con dition of things. Politicians are again discussing the possibilities of au extra session alter the 1th of March, and it is said the president is by no means averse to calling one, looking upon it as eo much rope wherewith the Democrats can hang themselves. There seems to be a general expectation, or rather apprehen sion, Ihut there will be au extra session - and when Congress once gets its ear tied to its own tongue it is difficult for it to leave off. Since the tnrifl talk be gun the peoplo who go to the galleries move about restlessly for a while and then go uway sad aud weary. It is very dull. Aud the groups of men iu the co.- ridors of tho capitul during thu day tend at tho hotels iu the evening, if they talk the tariff at all, talk languidly. Tiuloe, , to mcst persons, especially most con gressmen, the tarilf is quite as clear as logarithms. Tho superficial obseiver, therefore, might fail to find any excite ment. But in truth the country never in n time of peace held its breath in more anxious suspense than now. Tho rooms of members who "represent" pro tected "interests" are crowded with im pudent but trembling visitors and liter ally filled with statistics. prottsts.nppc.ils and who knows what edse? "Our busi ness is staguaut." "This suspense is worse than defeat." "Puss some bill aud pass it quickly." One would imag ine that all the labcrlug men are starv ing, that tvery manufactory is stopped nud that not a dollir's worth of mer chandise is changing owners, Every member of congress except the avowed and uncompromising advocates of sweep ing reductious is receiving anonymous protectionist documents nud newspapers with marked articles. In spite, there fore, of the lack of excitement ever) body feels that It is a critical time. There is somo talk going around about Don Cameron's not being u candidate for re-election after the expiration of his present term. Who evtrsaid or believed suoh a thing knowi not human nature, much loss Don Cameron. What man, ever yet being in the United States Sen ate, iu the fulluess of his powers, wanted to gut out of it? To bo ouo of seventy eight men selected from nearly fifty mil lions! And perhaps, too, all the dignities, tho pleasures and tho importance of n Seuatorship are really unknown until a miu has tested them. Mr. Cameron has a palico in Washington It may be as sumed that ho desires to livo here, uud what greater prestige could ho have iu Washington than to be a United States S-natoi? Ills wife bus a large lamily con ueutiou here aud Don meuus to stay iu thu north wing of th Capitol ns long au he cau and uo body will bUm,o him either. The capital is very cay now. Weather does not luterfere with n class of people lu Washington us visiting lneuds. The friends go everywhere. On reception days the hull eloo are open and the footman slnucif, salver in hand, and all they have to do Is to drop a card and march boldly in aud introduce them- scIvcf. There is a kiud of visiting crazo in Washington it is so easy to go to places that people go to them just as they go to Avenues, because it is facilis descensus. Au nrmy of people are hero who spend their lives going iu and cut of other people's houses. Fuimerly a class e,f yery nice kiud of people'would go to tho cabinet receptions when they had uo acquaintance with the lady re ceiving, but merily to pay their respects, but the fri.uds have broken all that up. Society is making the must of the short season before Lent and feels aggrieved over the impossibility of wearing out all its new clothes iu the few days that re main.
