The Senatorial situation in the Ohio Legislature js quite com plicated, and it is difficult to determine what will be the result. Part of the new iron bridge at Holyoke, Massac-hu setts, was blown down yesterday, and one of the workmen killed; several narrow escapes were made. The estate university uuuuing at unne- apolis, Miun., was slightly damaged by tire vesterday morning; at one liiue ic was thought the entire build- iug would be consumed. Great excirement prevails io the Glasgow iron market; the price of Scotch war rants has advanced to 66s, the highest poiut reached since the boom set in. Tne influenza is spreading among t e London police force, and in Munich it prevails to such an extent that the schools h"ave ben closed. The Spanish Ministry have re signed, and Senor Sagosta will en deavor to form a new Cabinet on a basis that will reconstruct the various departments. Dun & Co., in their review of the trade of the country report the prevalenceof a most conn deuc feeling in all sections; business failures in 1869 numbered 10,889 in the United States,and 1,777 in Canada. Judge William W. Kelly, of Pennsylvania, the veteran member of Congress, is dying of cancer in Wash ington; his condition is such that his physicians forbid his removal to his home. Two ladies in Trenton, 2sew Jersey, were chloroformed by burglars Thursday night; several hoars elapsed before they recovered consciousness. New York reports a large increase in the number of deaths, which is attributed to the grippe aud the diseases which follow that malady. Willis Gaylord, for years a heavy manipulator of rail road securities and railroad organizer, committed suicide in the county prison at Philadelphia yesterday morning. The Hollywood Ceme tery Company of Richmond have offered to Mrs. Davis the choice of any unoccupied section for the re mains of her illustrious husband; this is the cemetery in which the remains of Joseph Davis, son of Mr. Davis, are interred. A bill has been intro duced in the Virginia Legislature for the incorporation of a company which will run a line of steamers be tween Norfolk and Washington city; C. P.

When the ehoemaker makes will it is generally bis last act. his Minister Fred Douglass writes to friends in Washington, that he is socially tabooed in Hayti. Perhaps they draw the color line on his white wife. . We thought la grippe would come to grief if it kept on in its wild carreer in this country. It got into the State prison in New York a few days ago. Internal Revenue Commissioner Mason favors an extension of the bonded period for distilled spirits. If thev could be kept in bond for fthrmt fortv vears it miiiht have about lorty years it mmnt uv a soothing effect on this country.

John Linck returned to his old home in Connecticut after, an ab senoe of many years, on Christmas eve, to find his wife, who had mourned him as dead, married again Wlth a new in8talment of ohlldr -rrtj w , , , round r. He didn't peep Enoch Arden k through the window; and then turn saclly and go tramping out into the dark, drear world again but I congratulated hi wifa n kA. a luck and then went out, dived down into his wallet and came back with an armful of presents for the little fellows that might have been his if he hadn't stayed away from home so long. T. W. Caskey, of Texas, who was intimately acquainted with Jefferson Davis for half a century, says that Mr. Davis was never known to enter a saloon, nor permit the mildest ex pression of profanity to escape his lips, and that be was the most con sistent Christian that he ever knew. He carries his admiration for him so far as to compare him to Jesus Christ and declare him the "greatest man that has lived since the days of Jesus Christ." He 1 eaves no room to doubt that he idolized the dead chieftain. AmoDg the first articles that Col. Cameron, of the Asheville Citizen, wrote after he got back into harness was one on the grip. We don'c want the grip to get him, but hope that he and the Citizen will get the grip on Asheville, a fraternal grip so to speak a grip that will grow tighter and stronger with eaoh coming year. Honduras is oomicg to the front as the paradise of boodlers. It has a nice, genial climate. The boodle gentlemen who are too frail to stand the rigors of the Connecticut winters can turn to Honduras and winter it there in tropical delights; in the con genial companionship of premier Burke. In China they say a man can bor row money on his boys, but girls ain't worth a continental as oollate ral. Here you couldn't raise the wind on a baker's dozen of boys, but with a nice dear girl there are always lots of fellows willing to make advances. The publication of the Asheville Citizen was resumed on the 1st mst., with Col. Cameron as editor-iu-chief. We are glad of this, and Asheville has cause to be glad of it too, for the Citizen was doing muoh for that town and section. o?je5:j city iSK AIVKKTIHltriT. Stab Office Wrapping paper.
