SENTINEL & REPUBLIC!!! NIFFLLNTOVVN. Wednesday, March 21, 1TT. 13. F. SCnWKIEU, SDrroa ass raor-BiEToa. Is It Envy? Is It Jealousy ? President Uayes Liut appointed Fred Douglass to the position of Marshal of the District of Columbia, an office that in some of it functions is similar to the office of county sheriil Considerable onnosition has developed against him by both white nnd Mark t ares. It does not require a mind of great ecope of rompre- ienwon to reach a concliwion as to why wliiic people would prefer a man of their raco in the position, but just why the blacks are against him is quite hard to reach a conclusion on. Is it possible that envy and jealousy is at the bottom of their opposition ? His apiointnient has been confirmed by the Senate. A New Election. Senator John J. Patterson's plan for the iiJnieni of the question as to who is Governor in South Caro lina and in Louisiana, is, to submit tLe question to a new election to the people in these States.

A correspondent of the JVorlh Jlnertcan, of the 13th inst, says: I can chronicle the fact tliat Senator Simon Cameron paid his first visit this afternoon to President Hayes, lie was accompanied by Congress man Mackey, of Pennsylvania. Upon his arrival at the AVhite House he was immediately announced to President haves, and was at once admitted. There were a number of visitors in the Executive Room at the time, but the President left them all, nnd walking over to the door met and warmly greeted the veteran Senator from the Keystone State. Senator Cameron said : " I am just riding round to pay my respects and Bay good-bye to my friends, and of coursa I could not leave you out." The President said he was truly glad to 6ee him, and hoped he would live many years to enjoy his voluntary retirement from public life. The i Senator said : " Hayes I don t agree with you in this southern notion of . things, but I believe you are a good Republican and love your country, j and I hope it will come out all right. The President said : u What do yon think of a new election in South Car olina and Louisiana ?" The Senator at once exclaimed : " That is a good idea, anil I am suae all fair men should agree with it" He taid, 44 Patterson told me of the plan and I agree with it." He further said, u Patterson is from my State ; he is one of my boys; j publican fired an anvil over tbe inau he is a true man." In answer to a ; guration of Hayes. The oomocrats.

"ua.' ,ue.,"u i,5 points or wtiicn are as follows; in 130 tbe Maryland Hospital for tbe Iusaue was established. At that time tbe plaintiff bad a "fashionable and profit able" summer boarding bouse adjacent to the building in which the hospital was established. He alleges that "in consequence of the bowlings and pro fane language of the patients his board ers deserted biui,bis business was brok en up and the value ot bis property de preciated," snd be therefore sued for damages. Iu the course of tbe argu nient tbe court said that "neither tbe State uor a private corporation or in dividual bad the right to so construct or conduct ac asylum for the institu- tion, ss to prove a nuisance, without beiag liable for danjig-31, snd this lia bility existed whether the nuisance was caused by tbe original construction of the building or its subsequent use, wbicb by oiher construction or use might have been avoided." The case has not vet been decided, but in view of tbs plain language of the court, quot ed above, a verdict for the plaintiff seems to be only a question of time. In About Two Years. Chill and eold sweats are said to be quite prevalent at Washington now, and no wonder, when such scenes as tbis are constantly occoring : "An Illinois country editor went to tbe White House with a bundle of rccommeada tions and asked President Hayes to make him postmaster of his town.

Ia ordioary telegraphy tbe current is broken there is not a continuous "stream" of the 'fluid' but in tbe case of tbe tele phone there is this difference: tbe re sounding diaphragm vitiates continu ally, since vibration does not cease im mediately when the waves of souud strike it ; it continues lor a short time, snd tbis is enough to keep up that mod erate flow which fortes tbe steady stream. But at each peculiar impetus of the voice such, (or ' instauce, as would be made by one euuuciating tbe word "impenetrability" lbs current i reinforced by the impetus of tbe stress of tbe various syllables, "Ini," (or instance, would cause a certain and alight vibration, "pen" a more forcible and "bil" a still greater one. From the magnetic coil a wire is laid to the place where it is desired to reproduce be sound, and there, through some means rliicb tbe inventor does not fnl ly explain, tbe vibrations are Ber up again, sod tbe sound reproduced, Such is tbe telephone, concerning which ex travapant expectations are entertained.
