MILWACKEE, May 11.~—It is seldom a week bas ‘passed that has been characterized by as much fnterest and excitemeat as the one now drawing toaclose. Persoualiy, sotially, politically, pro- fesefonally, dramatically, eaucationally, com- mercially, tragically, accidentally, and tinancial- 1y the waters have bsen stirred so completely that our mental friction quite corresponds with the universal mania for house-cleaning and gen- eral disorder that grows into an epidemic about the 1st of May. On Sunday morning last the city was startled and shocked with the news that Gen. John M. Binckley haa probably com- mitted suicide. under circumstances that were well calculated to enfist the profounaest sym- ‘pathies, and touch the tenderest feelings of all who knew him. The general reader in Milwan- kee is already so familiar with the details of the case that their recapitulation is not necessary in this copnection, and it only renrains for me to £ay that no clew to the missing man has been found, and the probabilities are all in favor of bis sudden taking off. And yet_there are cer- tain aspects of the case that almost convince the close observer of human uature that Gen. Binckley is yet alive. Ordinarily a person about to commit suicide does mot _say much about it, but proceeds to business in a quiet and unostentatious manner, being quite content 10 let the shock of finding him dead sutli- clently disnify the proceeding and maoke him the hero of the hour.

And yet there wae a sorrowful and characteristic consietency in all his acts. He loved distinction and the applause of is feilow-men a3 he foved s own life. und, when life became 200 neavy a- bur- den to be longer borne. he could not lay down the load withont callingattention to the act. and yearn- ing for the nouice and approbation of his fellows, So the drifc of 81l his letters and explanations and requests was a sort of an excuse for doing 0 im- polite & thine as Lo take his own life. And, in- dexd, after giving ench formal and oft repeated motice of his intended exit, his fine ecoee of homor would compel him to proceed with the performance, inaemuch as he wonld considerany man a humbug and 3 frand who wonld excite the expectations .of 100,000 peo- ple and then dlappoint them; so it Is reasanable to <conclude that if be wae not etark-mad he has gone to bis tinal account. He was aman of superior natural mental endowments, which had_been pol- ishea by the best associatione, and attained by the most thorough discipline and study. His moral tone gave s grandear fo his character that was really subiime even when poverty and disappoint- ment crowded him over the verze of despair. Let us hope that after life's itful fever he sleeps well, Political partisanship never looked meaner to decent people than it has this week in connection with Gen, Binckley’s sudden departare. Iis mel- ancaoly end was ecized upon by some of the little creatures who, as Mr. Greeley sald, **are permit- ted by an inscrutable Providerce 1o ‘edit newspr- ‘pers, ' 1o magnify their own cauze, and to disoar- age that of their opponents.

One of thegreatest unsolved problems that con- front oor law-malkers and philanthrophists is the careand cure of the insane. Wisconsin kas two immenee Institutfons for the care of such unfortu- nates slresdy. oneat Madison and the other at Osh- koen, both fall to overflowing, and yet muny coun- try poor-honses and jails are crowded with them, where their proper treatment and care is next to impossible. Indecd, the idea of “administer- ing 1o 2 mind diseased,” with the ordinary facil- ities afforded by a county poor-farm, with any hope of success, i3 an absurdity seldom enter- tained by intellizent people; but how to pro- vide for this class of persons without overbur- dening the taxpayers is a question without a satiafactory answer. To overcome this difficulty in part, the last Legislature passed an act which thiz couniy has already taken measures to avail itself of, which provides that, whegever the num- ber of fusane persons exceed the accommodations of the Sute instilutions, asylums may be erccted by the counties ueder certain conditions. These conditions are tnat the site for any asylum ehall consist of mot less tnan forty acres of Jand: that the ouildipz ehall contain accommodations for from 30 1o 50 per cent more inmates than the entire number belonging to the county at the time of erection; that the Governor und State Board of Charities and Reform shall first decide whether a Deceseity exists for such additional asyloms: 1hat before proceeding with the construction of such asylum, the drawings and epecifications acopted Tauet be submitted to the Governor and State Board of Charities and_Reform for tueir approvals that npon the completion and acceptaace of the asylam by the Governor and State Board of Charitics and Reforr: the Governor shall appoint three Trustces, dnd the Board of Supervisors two Trustees, {3 the government of the Asylum; that the Treasurer of the county ehall be the Treasurer of snch aevium. and that the Board of Trustees must_report annually to the Governorand Staie Board a ktatement of the financial condition and Yants of the asylum. 1Itis also provided that the State ‘shall defray one-lalf the cost of erecting such County Asylums, if the amonnt docs not ex- ceed the sum of $300 per capita of the whole nam- r such aerlum {s desizned to accommodate, Alco, that in'Januars of each vear the Secretary of §tate ehall compute ihe average cost per capits per week of maintaining insanc inmates at State inafi- tations during the preceding fiscal year, for the purposeof determiinnu the aggrepate amoant which #ny county maintaining its’ own insane shzll be entitled to reccive from the State Treasury, on a basis of 80 per centum of an equal amount per capita per weck for all insane percons maintained by such connty at public cosr.

THE NEW SCIIOOL BOARD. If there Is anxiety and distrust among all the best people of Milwaukee at the prospect of mpeiring the efiiciency of our municlpal EoOv- ermment under the new regime, there is ad- ditional nervousness felt by many when they read the names of the mew Schoo! Board. In my letter tvo weeks azo, I intimated that Mayor Black proposed to take a whack at the High-School, but that he was bersuaded to omit it from his inauszural address by the ad- - Viceof discreet friends. But the Euspicion is now wide-spread that enough of the bummer, ¢lement s ot into the School Board to make” irouble, and that it will mwaitest itself in ‘hcn\lfil’g?)smlhc detriment and efficiency of rorpublle schoals.

M’ALISTER’S DEFEAT. The defeat of Mr. MacAlister as Supcrintend- ent of Schools,1s all the justification tnatis nceded for the unfriendty strictures that are everywhere passed upon the School Board. That they have been guilty of a very foolish and stuncndous blunder every one knows who is familiar with the work Mr. MacAlister has performed in bringing the schools up to their present state of excellency and efliclency. All agree that his works has been of the very highest order, and & large majority of the best people of the city feel that_an irréparable outrage has been inflicted upon the interests of popular edu- cation by the agrarian and vicious policy of the School Board. Nor do they find any mitization of the evil of turning out a st accomplished and experienced otficer, by contemplating the qualifications of his successor. L[ Mr. Somers brought to the discharge of his new duticsa moiety of his predecessor’s culture, adaptation to the business, and experfence in_educational aflairs, the case might not look so deplorably hope- less. But the exchange is giving much for alittle, znd it was not done through ignorance as much as {rom s basc and partiean motive. Mr. Somers has the eame right 1o be a Catholic that his predeces- sor e to be a Protestant, butit is lamentadle to know that his religion and pot his supenor fitness as an educator was the prime reason for his pro- motion. Itisto his credit to say that be was not an aspirant for the place, wherein he showed a modesty and an appreciation of his own unfitness for the position that might well have been imitated by his supporters in the School Board. **He will ETOW o it, ™" i3 the excuse and hove of _his fricnds, ‘There is certainly ample room for him to grow,and if these remarks will act as a fertilizer upon him to insure his growth they are worth all they cost. MEDICAL SOCIETY. The State Medicat Society held its fourteenth annual meecting in this city this week, com- mencing on Tucsday evening, and was well though not largely attended by some of the leading Allopathists in the State. The proceed- ings were characterized by a display of scientific kuowledge of the healing art quite comforting 10 outsiders who expect to be treated somctime by some one of these gentlemen, and who would sike to know that they are cured or killed ac- cording to the mwost aporoved system of prac- tice. A country practitioner, like the Methodist circuit-rider before the days of railroads. is one of the most rseful wemhers of society, and gen- erally wields 2 mighty infuence in the progress of civilization. In a new settlement, the doctor, the minister, and the school-teacher are the three big- gest men in it, and, as the physician is generally in at the birth. and perbaps, in many in- stances the ienorant cause of the death of most of u§, he must be admitted as an important factor in socicty.

'The seseion ended with a grand anquet, at which the doctrine of the doctors was ully discussed, and it was also amply demonstea- ted bs their sneeches that they had not meglected to caltivate the proper use of the tongue. MERCHANTS® ASSOCIATION, -The Merchants' Association gave their first public banquet on Thursday cvening at the Plankinton House. and it was a very fine and enjoyable affalr, which was participated in by about 100 of the solid business men and mer- chants of Milwaukee. Some of the gentlemen who represented certain_ speclal interests, re- sponded to toasts. and the occasion was em- oraced to extol and magnify each uther and each other's business in a way quite original, and, at the same time, very satisfactory to all con- cerned. As o mutual admiration society it was an cminent success, and the self-complacency “with which the listeners drank Mumm's extra dry as the orators expatiated upon the hizh” morality and strict intewrity that characterize all of our acts, was really delightful to behold. Mr. John Nazro_spoke for the Merchants® Association, Mr. McLaren to!d what a nice set of fellows composed the Chamber of Commerce, Mr. E. D. Holton responded for the baukers, Joln W. Cary defended the railroads, Mr. Allis touk up the manufacturing interests, George W. Allen let ont about the mercantile business, and M. A. Aldrich anticipated his next leading editorial upon the ‘*Power of the Press.” It is needless to say that the spoeches werc all up Lo concert pitch, and. ss they bad been several daye undersoing the process of incabstion, they were as well finished rhetor- ically as the circumstances would admit, Of course such a_conspicuons aszemdly of eminent men, gathered together for such a laudable purpose, ander circumstances o well czlculated fo create Jealonsy, it is not strange that certain other inter- ests feel slighted by the management, are maturelly in no heavenly freme of mind.

Hooay. A Very Small Commotion for Large Cemmunists. Citizen Megy’s Tribulations for Threatening a Reporter. Sickening Stenches, Health Officials, and the Charge to a Grand Jury. Hayor Ely's Kewspaper Nominee--4 Bronze Fountain for Union Square.-Death of Hiltionaire-3lercbant HMorgan. From Our Own Correspondent. New York, say Y.—The Communists here have had a small agitation, whicn was not so agrecable to them, since it was created by some- body outsfde tneir circle. Ii was so ridicu- lously small for men who profess the purpose to revolutionize ail government, that the refugee leaders arc twice as mad about it as they would have been over something like a sizeable per- secution that cauld have been used for banner and speech-making purposes, Some months ago, it may be remembered. s long interview was published, in which the Communist Mcgy boasttully declared himself one of the men who so brutally assassinated Archbishop D’Arboy, the Prefect of Police Grebols, and otbers, during the Paris insurrection. Tbe interview was worked up in sensational siyle, and was followed by other articles not favorable to the Commune as it exists in the haunts of Bleekerstreet. At length came the Good-Friday banquet, at which the law-hating “ Reds " took occasion toblaspheme and raut in more thanusual hardihood. The reporter who had talked with Megy was present, and the Communist leader attacked kim with words, following reproack with threats to put him where he ‘would never use pen again, and all that sort of free-and-casy usage. These threats were included in the printed report next morning. It secems that Megy, feeling yet more enrazed at this, made further threats, until the reporter feared for his life, and presented his case to Police-Justice Smith. Word was at first sent to the Commun- ist by the Justice, requesting him to call at court. This was unheeded, and the next call was answered to the effect that,. if the Justice wanted to see Megv, he must send for lum in legal manner. The Justice immediately took the hint, and two bold officers invaded Megy’s apartments, which are said to be something of an arsenal, with a warrant. The result was that* despife his comrades’ loud talk about OUTRAGE AND TYRANNY, ihe chief was locked up over night fn default of bail. Next day the court-room was thronged, ana ~ all the Jleading Com- munists were on hand, with citizen Justice Schwab in the front rank as usual. But Justice Smith had his own views sbout citizen- ship and personal rights, and pever finched in doing what he had decided to do. He madea brief but pointed sfieech. when the testimony had been taken. He said that Megy, and all other so-called Communerds, must distinetly understand that they must neither threaten nor assault anybody in’ this city. They might as well know, also, that the Amcnmn‘rbonlc have no sympathy with Communism, aud will rigor- ously punish those who band togetherin law- lessness. Then the Justice put” Mezy, who looked mild as June, unaer $500 bonds to keep the peace. [le was locked up for some hours, until his friends came it a bondsman, filed the necessary bond, and took bhim away, all grumbling and denouncing the action of the Justice in the matter. And this is the small erievance that marks the first tilt of the Paris *‘Reds” with the great American press. As iflustrating the way in which the opinions advanced by these agitators work in one guarter and another, a remark made the other day by my barber, ao Italian, Is in point. He was dis- cussing—what Darber does not discussi—the Iabor problem, the National party, and the hard times. Somebody with Iathered chin spoke of the Beecher roszip, saying there was proof, and Tommy Shearman would soou have it all in chape, that Theodore Tilton bad written the last confession, and bad remained one night in Mrs. Tilton’s company prior to his latest trip West. The barber ¢id ot care for this talk, but at the name of Beecler he fired up at once. A BARBER'S OPINION. “Yet, a nice man! " said he; *‘andthis is a nice country for @ poor man to ive in. That man, who i3 rich, said the poor man could live on bread and water, and it was good enough for him! Well, he couldn’t say toat in any country of the OI1d World. Ihave seena man’s house burned and the man and his family stoned and hung for suying less than that. g The working- men bere don’t kuow their rights, that’s just the reason. They have po courage. But' let the rich man take care when the poor man gets down pretty low." 1t was of no whatever to try to explain to thus foreigner, who had thus gived the first in- timacion obenly of his own sympathy with the Communc organ, that the Plymonth preacher Wwas not antagonistic to workingmen, and had not said what he was reported to have smd. His auswer was that the newsoapers would not bave dared to print such a thing, which_exposed the man’s life to dunger, unless it bad been true. Aud 1 found that that remark, taken from its conection and put in worse ligat, was laid up by the Commune against the preacher, and made him one of the marked men. if ever the ‘Thoped-for day of fire and fury should come. But tae Superintendent of Palice eays it never will come in New York. The agitation of the Com- mune subject at this time hos put officials on their guard, and is conceded by thinking men to be an cxcelient disclosure instead of a sensational scare: on the same gronnd that leads men to consider prevention always preferable to care. STENCHES AND TUE HEALTH BOARD. New York has a stench trouble and stir that call to mind sundry complaints, and investications, and Teports of committces respecting the same matter in Chicago. It was some weeks ago that Mr. Mus- grave, Chairman of the Citizens' Committee of Investigation, made such a report concerning tho causes of the sickening odors pervading the city as srouced great feeling of indignation against the Board of liealth, at whose dour the responsibility was plainly faid. Mr. Musgrave found slaughter- lbouses, boiling and offal establishments, manure yords, tanneries, and soap-fuctories Scattered throughout the city run without cffort to do away with the stenches, and protected by permits issned by the Board of IHealth. The officials of this Loard then begnn to look avout and_report, but did not find things in &o bad a condition. The matter ran afong 1111 this past week, when iecorder Hackett made a Vigorous charge to the Grand Jury, instructing them to inquire carefully into the com- pluints, and to indict the oflicials feariessly if they were deemed derelict in tuecir duty to protect the city azainst discase and death. Not eatisfied with thiz, the Recorder called the Grand Jury before him subsequently, warned the members agajnst outside jufuence, ind said there were ntimations thut some of them had been un- Jawfally avproached. If so approached. he chargzed them to report the offender immediately to him; *-end I will teacn him a lesson, " he added, **that he will never forget.” Over all of which the citi- zens rejoice, not because they wan: to sce the city ofticials suffer, but vecause there 1s now rea- son 1o believe that toe causes of the deadly etenchies will be found and removed, POLICE COMMISSIONER IN FUN. People have not been able to decide as yet whether Mayor Ely nominated Mr. George Jores, Proprietor of the 7imes, to u Police Commissioner- €hip in joke or in earns Mr. Jones imself took the view that it was 4 good joke, and said the Mayor must know he could notaccept suchan office for many reasons. The Committee of Alder- men, nevertheless, have the name before them for consideration, and the joke may be curtied out—if joke it be—by contirmution. ‘The newspapers are divided in opinion as to the serionsnees of the nomiuation, but generally coincide with the Graphic, which says: *“There ie an impreseion that Mayor Ely's nomi- nating George Jones as Police Cominisstoner was a joke. Tt would be well for the Mayor to perpetrate a grest many more such jokes. Mr. George Jones and men like him onght to be the class from which Tolice Commissioners and ather public ofiiciais nre chosen. 1l is an bonest man, and made his money by eound business methods, and something of the energy and system whick made the Zimer 0 zood a property would be very usefuln_ihe Police De- partment.

Mr. Willis James. of Brown Bros. & Co., the well-knewn bankers, has presented ihe city with a bronze drinking-fountsin. now beinz modeled in Stuttzart by Adolph Donndorf. The fountain, which witl probably be placed in Gnfon Sauare, is expected 10 be exceedingly fine in scolpture and design, as Doundorf was 3 pupil of the late Ernest Reltschel. Ona granite base four feet hbigh, ap- proached by etep on the four sides, rices a pedesta) of bronze seven fect in neicht. This 1s provided with basins and cups. On this pedestal will be placed a bronze greap, of the eame hight as the vedestal. representing 3 mother bringing her two children to dripk at the fountain. It was Mr, Jamee’ requert that the fountain should not be set. up in Central Pariz. THE NATIONAL PARTY does not appear 10 be of 3 peaceable disposition.

A farmer boy from Aichizan bus ut once created a real-life romance for **Our- Boarding-House, ™ and made a hero of himself in a small way. 1iis experience reads very like fiction, and is il the more interesting because it is not fiction. The boy, who is 19 years old. green as a Michizander can e, and stout as any horse on his farm, tovk a notion to become a New York merchant, e owned a handsome farm, but be caught the metro- politan and mercantile diseases, rented his farm, and rexolved to make a total change of busine: Iie had an uncle in business here, and the wife of that uncle chanced to be our lundlady. who manages one of those coloasal boarding-lotises fn which this city of boardersabounds. To thisuncle the voung farmer wrote, stating his plans, and asking as to the prospects of a place in the uncle's astabhshment. The answer wzs to wait il the coming fall. when trade would set in more briskly: mesnwhile lesving opportunity to gather the summer crops and get 30 much more ahead. Nothing further was fieard from the nepnew, und it was thought he had accepted the advico. On the contrary, he packed his trank and came on, without informing bis rela- tives of his intentions. Hoarsived in town two months ago, with tne idea of Jooking about for himself, to seo what he could ao in an independent way. The first thing he did was to bny a morning paper. Iuthat nmmmfi paper, seemingly as sume agent of Destiny had ordaineq, his aunc hiad an ad- vertisement calling for a man of all work, whose chief occupation was TO WASH DISIES. No sooner did the Michigan boy's eye strike that head of ¢ Wanted " than he decided to answer at once, and apply forine position. It is necessary to say, here, that neither uncle nior aunt hd seen their nephew since nis babyhood, 50 that the way 1o deceivo them was open and easy. The nephew applied for the servant's place. Ile admitted that he knew nothing avout honsework, but said he was quick to learn. There was something sbout his frank, honest, country manner that impelled the' landlaay to try him, and Lo was immediately installed as chief dishwusher. He did bis work well; was never tired when the seven or elght hundred dishes came clashing around him, and took a strange interest in lishten- inz his mistress' burdens. He. had destred to find out in this way what sort of people his relatives If be did not like them, he would %o back were, to Michgan. 1f he did, time would make him right. Well, he liked them larecly, and himself became a favorite. Ilis cheery ways and check- ered-fannel shirt were festures thut grew to be noted by every boarder who took an occasional pecp info_the kitchen. Two months of ervice expired the other day. When hc was paid his wages, the lad sstonished his mistress by saying he wanted to tell mher a _ story obout “himself. As she rather resented this familiarity, he nquired quietly as to who she thought he was; and in e minute thesecret o well kept wasont. Then there was a sceme, Subse- quently the landlady took the youth to her husband's tailor, fitted him out with a_stylfsh suit of clothes, and so transformed him thar when he took a scat at the dinner-table, nobody recorntzed btm. To-day the Michigander is {n” his uncle’s store, geiting a start in the desired mercantile line. This fall he wilf be sent to o bosiness colleze, city Iife will ruo the farmer off from his appearance, aud, if his past does not belie him, be will gomo. dny rank smong tne jarge merchants of New or] . G, ———— O’CONNOR. The Unfortunate Democratic Politiclan Suffering the Experiences of 3ob Brierly— A Saginaw Waiter with Thou Art the Man” Constantly on His Lips. Spectat Dispatch to The Tribune. Corumbes, 0., May 10.—The Committee in- vestigating the record of John O'Connor, mem- ber of the House, held another meeting to- night, and cvidence of the most damaging char- acter was given by John Ward, of East Saginaw, who was a waiter in the restaurant where O’Connor stole the money from goc John Moladay, who at the time was under the influence of liqguor. Ward was sum- moned here by the Committce, and ar- nved ot midnight last night, and was deprived from sceing O’Connor or talking with auy person before hie had indent i fied the man. This morning he was conducted to the House, unbeknown to any one except the Comnmittee, and told to pick out the ex-vonvict, alfss * Three-fingered Jack.?” Ie walked through the aisles and noticed every man. Finally he reached the desk where O'Conmor sat, and stopped short, studied the features of the bounty-jumver, and returned to the Chair- man of the Committee, and said, point- ing to O'Connor: *“That is the man that I testified a2ainst nine years ago. He is the John O’Connor who spent three years in the Miciigan Penitentiary.” This - evening Ward was subjected to the most severe examivatfon that 2 witness was ever put to, and, notwithstanding the ablest legal talent, his statements were so declsive and em- phatic that the cross and re-cross- examination could iz no way make him vary one dota from his direct statements, although the whole Committee and counsel tried fn every way to betog him by lezal techniealities. Lvery member of the Committee and counsel sav that he is one of the most vositive and cool witnesses they ever examined. The evidence seems conclusive. The witness even described O'Connor as betog lame at_the time, and mentioned his dress aud personal ay- pearance. The Committee hold another short meeting to-morrow morning, hen the evidence will be given to the flouse fn the afterncon, leaving the respon- sibility with that body. O’Connor took = hand in cross-cxamining the witness b t, but came out second best, the witness anticipating bis questions and answering them, and at the same time asking O'Connor it he did not remember certain incidents which occurred previous to the theft. The Republicans feel ~ very jubilant, and, although they will votec for the ex- pulsion of = O'Connor . if the House acts fo the matter. they arc confident thx:x party capital can be made if no action is taken. ————— MAY.
