Wash born, who was buried to-day, was, next to Grant himself, the mightiest sum in all this country rouncL- He was supposed to wield the power of the Executive. He had trotted the prospective President around thro" the Northwest andf had exhibited him to admiring crowds like a show horse at a fair, and had gathered no little personal glory thereby. , He had established himself as Grant's mouthpiece, Inasmuch as : he ' had talked while Grant contented him alfirith bowing.- On assuming his vat iu the House his arrogance was redoubled, and his colleagues, who had been restive under -its milder form, bore it "with becoming -pa tience. Donnelly - alone, Donnelly of the Bacon-Shakespeare cypher, took up the fight and the mud flew, ti ail will recollect:; Each proved himself a champion mud-thrower and a thorough master of bulings- gats. It was generally conceded that, like the wranglers Dr. Frank lin tells about, they knew each other Tery well, but the majority ot uon RTess remained with the friend of Grant, and Donnelly went to the aiL He went into the Cabinet as Sec- letary of State, and in a few weeks rureu wiin me oaors onne xepari ment still about him to take the J&ission to France. No one sectnled surpised that he should thus liLve the "pick" and choice 6f t he wst positions in the gift of theM Ex ecutive. The great men of t he party, nsually so jealous of each other,-all flood meekly aside, while Wash- jura helped himself, and1 coiitented wemseives with what he left. fcyery one thought that his pro- "oa or lierman interests Uuring Ule COlmmmo in Ttvic anH ia if - v iti jl if 1 Of -ev v oravely and well, would give him wch strength with that important ekment in the United States, ' as" to -eiimi a formidable candiaate 1 n Psidency, and I have heard fwleged that he " cherished ; swell gopes himself. But he dropped from first class mission, immediately wKof sight, and not one man in. ten 2?u?and' outside "of .the tcity m jwch he lived, knew whether he as living or dead. . ihere was another man of the type, and with very much the tr "utory, in the House about T.ikn Vjslihrn li Jf bull headed," dogmatical and Sneering.

There is a prospect of a full house at the, hearing of the anarchist case j by the U. S. Supreme Court to-iuor- row.. The court room, the old Sen ate Chamber, you know, is small, and will doubtless be packed as it used to be when its walls echoed the eloquence of. Clay, Calhoun and Webster. Much interest is manifested in po litical circles here to-night in the election in Baltimore to-day. All the Baltiihoreans temporarily resid ing here have gone home Jto vote. The Democrats seem confident, but the division in their ranks makes the result somewhat uncertain. But you'll know all about it before you get this. RcadingOf that suggestion to use the monument fund to build an asy lum for Confederate orphans, as a memorial to Grant, recalls a conver sation that I had with a New York gentleman a few days ago, while strolling through Central Park. He told me he hadn't yet subscribed a dollar to the fund and didn't think he would, unless the project took some more useful shape than the stereotyped monument. We were then among the statues there, and had just passed Sir Walter Scott and his vis-a-vis, (on the opposite of the road) Bobby - Burns, and he meant that sort of a thing, of course. There are a great many of his way of think ing, but whether they would care to honor the illustrious dead by repair ing the damages of the war in this glorious way, remains to be shown. Jacobus. The New York.Herald joins hands with the Star of that city in uphold ing '.the regular Democratic ticket. They are fighting the Times and the Tribune, regular Republicans, and the World, a late convert to their views. The Herald thinks that the coalitionists will feel greatly dis" heartened at the result of a similar movement in Baltimore. Politics in New York City are muchly mixed and yet they are not j-very difficult of comprehension. The Democrats are united, and have a strong ticket in the field and the Republicans there are trying on the oldjdodge which played the wild with them in North Carolina. They have nominated a weak-kneed Dem ocrat for the head of their ticket. But the old line war horses are ready for the fray and they will whip out the coalitionists there as they did in North Carolina. The New York World favors the bolters- B. F. Butler's argument before the U. S. Supreme Court yesterday,, in behalf of the Chicago dynamiters, as it is outlined in the telegraphic re ports, was as mild as milk and as sickening as a spoonful of whiskey in a tumbler of water. This surprised us somewhat, we must confess, as we have long been aware of the fact that the Beast is as chock-full of in telligence as he is devoid of princi pie and decency. As our friend Col. M - used to say, in speaking of a local polician, "he is the smartest d -d rascal in the lot." LOCAL STENTS. Index to New Advertisements.

Mr. August Wessell and wife have presented- to -St. Paul's Lutheran Church a beautiful baptismal font, which will be dedicated to-morrow. The font was manufactured by Messrs. Fore & Foster, of this city, and is a fine piece of work. Travellers by Sea. Capt. A. D. Ingram, of the burned steamship Regulator; J. Robinson ciiief mate of theJiegulater; P. Kiley, W. H. Styron, S. B. Craig and War ren Davis, of this city, and M. A. Coerr, of Waterbury, Conn., were passengers on the steamship Gulf Steam which sailed for New York to day. Timber Land. Col. E. D. Hall is in receipt of let. ters from parties in New York who wish to purchase from 5,000 to 50,000 acres of timber land, that is easily accessible to a good water course A portion of the desired quantity has already been secured, but a large amount yet remains to be sup plied. Interesting: Services. Reformation services in memory of the 370th anniversary of the Re formation will be held at St. Paul's Lutheran Church to-morrow. The services, both morning and night, will be in English and will be con ducted by Rev. W. Kimball, agent of the North Carolina College of the Lutheran Church. A number of addresses appropriate to the occa sion will be made to the Sunday School at 3 p. m. An interesting feature of the services will be the presence of a very excellent life size picture of Martin Luther nail- jng the 95 theses against the walls of the churcn at Wittenberg, which was painted by Mr. C. V. Richards of this city. City Court. There was a small docket, for the Mayor's consideration this morning, which was disposed of in the follow ing order: Richard Stowe, colored, disorder ly conduct. This defendant was arraigned on the 25th inst., but asked for a continuance to enable him to secure important witnesses. The continuance was granted but before he was again locked up he managed to escape, but after bein absent a couple of days came back and voluntarily surrendered 1 him self. At the trial this morning it was shown that he resisted and abused the officer who made the original arrest. He was finejd $20 for the offense, with the alternative of being confined 30 days in the city prison. Donald Stewart, who was arrest ed some days since for causing fright and disturbance in the neighbor hood of Fifth and Nun streets, was discharged with the express under standing that he leave the city with out delay.

The Gulf Stream said the Benefactor will do the work. v A Good Joke. We hear of a rich joke which was perpetrated in this city upon one of our scholarly clergymen, which is too good to be lost. A gentleman who had met with a severe accident wished to write to his brother, but was prevented on account of his wounds. The clergyman in ques tion, hearing of the man's unfortu nate dilemma, volunteered to write the letter for him. The kind offer was gratefully accepted, the writer, who is an excellent penman, taking some extra pains to have the mis" si ve appear neat arid well written When completed it was read to the wounded man who was well pleased with the contents, but when asked if there was anything he would have added, replied: "Yes; say, 'please excuse bad writing and spelling! " Personal. Hon. C. M. Stedman leaves to night for New York, on a business trip. Rev. ,Dr. Yates gave us the pleas ure of -a call this morning, having fully recovered from his recent ill ness. He is hard at work in his min isterial duties and is doing earnest work for the completion of the new house of warship. States ville Landmark: Mr. E. A. Keith, of Wilmington, has been visiting here this week. He is an old friend of Dr. S. B. Evans, . who, by the way, he finds in much better health than he was a year ago. Mr. Greorge Harriss, business man ager for the Jessica Thomas Comedy Company, is in the city making pre parations for the appearance of his troupe in a round of comedies com mencing next Tuesday and continu ing five nights. Mr. Harriss gave us the pleasure of a call to-day and we found him a pleasant and agreeable gentleman, who has the satisfaction of representing a good company. . Mr. WuiilRUFreneh, agent for the Acme Manufacturing Company, re turned last night from Richmond, where he had been to exhibit some of the company's manufactures -at the Fair. He says that the Fair, in itself, was almost a failure on ac count of the rain but that the cere monies in Richmond on Thursday on the occasion of -the Lee Monu ment celebration, were something long to be remembered. " Opera House. The Baltimore Sun of the 25th inst., in speaking of Mr, John . S. Clarke and his companyTwho are to appear at the Opera House here next Monday night, says: At Ford's Opera House, John Sleeper Clarke, the renowned come dian, appeared last night in, 4The Heir at Law."
