Speciat Correspandence of The Tribune. MmwaukEEE, Feb. S.—During the present weck attention has been attracted to the legis- lstive procecdings, in consequence of the intro- duction of several measures of particular im- portance to the City of Milwaukee, inasmuch as they embody raaical reforms. One of these bills, introduced by Assemblyman Keogh, is simed at ofice-seckers and office-holders. It ‘prohibits particination in contracts by members of any branch of the City Government. It also prevents the solicitation of petty positions for friends. Asthis biil comes from a life-Jong Democrat, it must be accepted as an ackoowl- cdgment that Milwaukee bas, for ‘a term of years at least, passed out of the hands of the Democracy and into the hands of the Re- publicans, Otherwise no effort would be made to destroy the power which the Democrats bave wielded so long and 50 . success- fully through the disuibution of wosi- tions to those who perform dirty work at the polls and in the caucuses. Another bill, intro- cduced by Assemblyman Wall, proposes the crea- tion of a Board ot. Sewer Commissioners, three in number, who are named therein, for the pur- pose of remedying our defective sewerage sys- tem. This questivz of sewerace has become an important one with our citizens. The detects Geveloped in our present system are fraughi with such grave consequences, so far as the fu- ture health of the city is concerned, that any step looking to the introduction of reforms will ‘be hailed with pleasuse, even thoush a coneider- able additional expense attaches to it. Stiil ac- other measure, introduced on he lest day for 1he reception of bills. provides for the appoint- ment of a Board of Fire and Police Commia- gioners. The nost diligent inquiry has failed to discover the author of the bill or afford aoy information in segard to its provisions In foet it is now said to be a ‘‘dead-head,” em- broving only the titic and an enacting clause, the provisions being omitted subject to : develoment of public semtiment. The rumor to-day is that Assemblyman Simpson has =ot this * dead-head » in his capacious overcoat pocket, and does not propose to permit it to see the ligtit of day again until after the hour of ad- journment arrives. ‘That there are people here Who desire to see changes made fn the Fire aud Police Departments cannot be doudted. But 1l policy of any farther changes is not soclear. 1t is ecriain that the Democrats desire wo be let alone in the possession of such oflices as they now control, while leading Republicans doubt 2iie policy of interfering with the departments as at present constituted. They are juclinea to rezard the Commissioner schieme as a sort of two-tdged sword, which may iuflict as much in- jury upou themselves as upon the party intend- ed tabe reactied. Under these circumstances it 1is pot likely that any measure of the kind de- poted by the heading of the bill referred to will be adopted. 3 Woile on the subject of legislation it can trutifully be remarked that many of the laws looking to the prevention of abuses are never euforced. and in consequence bzcomne dead let- ters. Take for instance the law agamst bribery st elections. It was framed and urged to final passage by Mayor Black, when a State Senator, because of the profuse biceding to which he bad been subjected as a candidate for office on sev- eral oceasicns. ‘The sight of an imporerished purse made Mr. Black mud, and he propused to 1t 2 stop to the practice of buying @otes, by constituting it a penal offense. ‘The law worked all right, apparcatly, just €0 lone as be re- wained 4 private Gtizen. But last spring, when he became a candidate 1or Mavor, it was Yost sizht of altogether, and he bled freely once Iuore. 1t s said to the tune of a eool 316,000 In the course of conversation some weeks after election, Mayor Black playfuily referred to this law, and remarked thatif it had been strictly enforced in every instance since its enactment, every politician iu the State, himself oot except- ed, would buve been compelled to serve a term fo the State Prison. The truth of the remark cannot be questioned. as money has become 8 vinal element in_doubtful cuntests, with mem- bers of both parties. A TRANSFER PROPOSED. Among the bills introguced in the Legislature {5 one by Mr. Quarles, of Kenosha, for the erce- tion of additional accommodations for the rap- §dly-inereasing number of insane people throuzh- out the State. Under an existing law, enacted by the Legislature of last winter, County Gov- ernmerts are authorized to build asylums for the incurable insane people, of capacity equal 10 double the quota to which the counties are entitled in the existing State hospitals, one- half the cost of such asylums to be borae by the State Government. This law was enacted toae- commodate some of the larger counties, whose coutributions to the State hospitals are in ex- cess of the quotas assigned to them, and con- stautly increasing. Acting upon the opportu- nity thus atforded, the County Board of Super- visors several months ago ordered the erection oi a0 asslum, with accommodations for not less than 250 persons. The plans were prepared und the coutract for the completion of the edifice Jet. Under this contract ground - bas been broken, and the 10t of the material hauled upon the ground. When it was proposed to take advantage of the Jiveral offer of the State. several members of thie County Board of Supervisors were in doubt 25 1o the propriety of making an expenditure of £140.000 for th:e purpose, even theugh the State should refund one-half of the amount upon the completion and acecptance of the building by the Governor and State Board of Charities and Jeform,” as providedin thelaw. ‘The vote of these members, united to those who were known to be opposed to “the scheme, would have been sutficient to kill the scheme. But he advocates of the proposition suggested the possibility of actiou on the part of the Leg lature looking 1o an assumption of full con- trol of the institution by the State at an early duv, and thus won these doubtful ones over. Iu this way the necessary majority to carry ihe measure was secured. Now that Mr. Quarles Das introduced bis bill au effort will be made o turn the proposed asylum overto the State, although not asingle foundation stone has been laid. For the purpose of testing the seuse of the County Board, as well as the sense of the Legislature, on the subject, the following pre- amble and resolutions have beea prepared for presentation at the next meeting of the Super- visors on Tuesday: Wupneas, A bill has been introduced in the Legislature of the State of Wisconsin, now in ses- eion at the City of Madison, Wis., to further pro- * wide for the incurable insane of said State; and, Warneas, Tbe County of Milwaukee, State of Wisconsin, hus commenced-the construction of un ssylom for the insanc of said county under the wrovicione of Sec. 32 of the Revised Statutes of the State of Wisconsin; and Wnenreas, 1n the opinion of the Board of Saper- visors of tne County of Milwaukee suitable build- snzs can be provided for the accommodanon of the ansane of the State of Wisconsin, in the County of Milwaukee ut & less cost than at any other location in seid State, and that the cost of maintenance of raid insane persons will be much less in said county than clsewhere in said State; now, therefore, beit Jlesolved, By the Lourd of Supervisors of the County of Milwaukee, that the County of Mil- waukee hercby tenders the State of Wisconsin the #ie mow owned by the County of Milwaukee, situsted in the Town of Wauwatosa, and purchased by the said county for the purposc of erecting tianrcon an acylum for the wsanc of saia county.us proviaed in said Chap. 32 of the Revised Statates, yrovided the State of Wisconsin will accept the same and erect thercon a State ospital for the ineape of the State of Wisconsing and orovided, further, ~ that the States of “iscousin will | reimburse tne said ty of Milwaakee for the moneys actually Jaid cut znd expeonded in and about the purchase of suid site, and iu the coustruction of the said County Aevlum;: and provided further, that the State of Wisconsin will asenme the contract heretofore en: tered into by the County of Milwaukee for the constraction and completion of said County Asy- lum. And be it further A Lresolved, By the Board of Supervieors of the County of Milwaukee, that. uoon the acceptance of raid site by the State of Wisconsin for the pur- voses and upon the conditions hereinbefore men- ‘oned. then and in that event the County Clerk of wailkee Cornty skall conve the State of “Wincousin, oy #ood and sufiicient deed, the site Lereinbefore mentioned. . The author of the above preamble and resolu- tious has received assurances from Mr. Quarles that he will substitute provisions covering the offer herein made in lieu of the bill as at pres- cot framed. That the County Board will take Lavorable action on the resolutions isnot io by doubted. The question then remains whether the Legislature will take similarl; tion. If the bedy should, Milw: will zet rid of an elephant Of expensive tions, while the State will_ se an asylum less than half the cost uf either of the present institutions. " The result will be Jooked for with interest by every taxpay WE.CELEBRATE. If Milwaukee can be said to excel in anv- thing it must be celebrations.

And yvet there is ood reason to suppose that they did not encounter a tithe of the sufferings that were experienced by lookers-on. They rallied lo_hcar the flaming torches and keep step to inspiring music, and did so_ at the sk of frozen limbs und death-colds. The de- vices displayed . by different bodies which took part in the march gave evidence of careful preparation. But of all that was done to honor the oceasion, the paln belongs 1o 1he Sisters und scholars of the Convent Notre Dame, perbaps beiter kpown asSt. Mary’s In- stitute. There an exhibition was given during the afternoon for the benefit of Archbishon Henniand his distinguished guests in priestly robes, which - for brilliant conception d fault- Jess execution excelled anytbing of the kind ever before attempted here. For examble, a portion of the decorations were arranged so as to play a puntomine part in the exerciscs. Three angels, cach beariuz a crown, depended from the arch of the staze. ‘Three poems, entitled * The Three Garlands”—souvcnirs of the ordination to the priesthood, ke sitver or twenty-fifth anniversa- ¥, and the golden_or fiftieth anniversary—were read by youns ladies. When the words in the first poemn, bis nuptial wreath all becom- ing," were uttered. the first anzel let fall a crown of, -myrtle. In the sécond peem, as the; ‘lady ‘recited the line, ¢ Completed is the gurland of silvery blos- soms,” the sccond angel dropped a silvery crown. ;And whea ‘tht words, * Wreath of jubilee,’” were reached in_the. third voewm, the hird angel relaxed her grasp, asitwere, upon a golden wreath, and it descended eracefully to the staze. The effect of tlis remarkably ar- tistic arrangement csn better be imagined than described. Al io all, the festivities wil first rank with anythme of the kind yet nessed in the West, outside of Chicago.

AN INVESTIGATION. A joint committee ot the County Boara of Supervisors are engaged in an investigation of charges of a scandalous character in convection with the management of the County Hospital, and a general churge of mismanagement that has been freely aired at recent meetines of the County Board. The iestimony adduced does not fully establish the scandals so freely bruited about uy rumor, but nevertheless aflords cause for complaint against Mr. ‘and Mrs. Doran, the Steward and Stewardess of the Hospital, an assistant named Kirchuoer, apd one Auua Maria Moore, the cook. According to common report, as stated in the testimony, the relations between Kirchner and the Moore woman have not beea such as should exist between single persons, while Mrs. Doran, with full knowledge of the oings-on. bas not ovly winked thereat, out ac- tually been the confidéntial friend and compau- ion of the woman. With refcrence to the sani- tary condition of the Hospital, an old jnmate mave testimony of a stageering character. ‘This witness claims that. the present administration is the worst onc which the Hospital has ever been placed under. According to bis statement. the Hospital is not only i filthy coadition gen- erally, but the clothing of the inmates, aud the beds occupied by them, swarm with vermin, It ie altogether probable that the Committee will report, at the meeting of the Board on ‘Fuesday, in favor of a2 cumplete change in the administra- tion of the Hospital. CHANGE-OF-GRADE DAMAGES. The frequency of judgments against the city for damages resulting from chauge of grade is beginning to alarm taxpayers not 2 little. Suits are now pending which, if decided azainst the city, will take at least $150,000 out of the Treas- ury, and other suits ‘are in embryo, iuvolving damages to the amount of $100,000 more. These last will be brought by E. P. Allis, James Sheriffs, and others on account of changes in the grades of Clinton and other ,streets on the South Side. To show the facility with which hese judzments are obtained, the case first won by Mark Tyson at Sheboyzan will serve. Thé property on which the suit for damazes was brought lies on both sides of South Water street, the river and the South Side. In 186¢ a new grade was established,—ten feet above the datum live,—making a uniform raisc of sixfect, but the change was not_ carricd into_effect in front of this property. 1n 1870 Mark Tyson be- came the purchaser of the property, aud two vears later, after the filling required under the mew grade bad been done, built a ware- house on the river side, with basement so that the flrst floor reached the level of the sidewalk. Heavv taxes for the paved streets were levied. but Mr. Tyson never paid them, the lots were sold for non-payment, and the certifieates azainst the fots are still in existence unless they hs cn taken up by the present owners and destroved. Tyson brought £uit to recover the value of the street work and The cost of adjusting the lots to the grade, claiming that” the change rendered the docks useless for business purposes. The case was tried at Sheboyzan on Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday of the present week, and resulted in a special verditt in’ favor of the complainang that will ageregate nearly $14,000. This judg- ment will prove a blessing 10 Mark Tyson, uo doubt; butif susiained by tnc Supreme Court the effect cannot _fail to be disastrous to the city, as it opens the door for a wholesale raid upon the City Treasurcr by property-owners in every part of the city where grades have been raised without uecessary precaution at anv time within the past ten years. It is sule to sav that the lots involved o this suit, even if not sad- dled with the disadvantaze of the grade, would burdly pring $14,000 to-day. ANNUAL MEETINGS.

MILWAUKEE, Feb.8.—At the noon meeting of the Chamber of Comunerce to-day, Robert Eliot, Esq., oresented the following memorial to the Legislature, remonstrating againat any action calculated to exclude forcign insurance comnanies from doing business in this State: To the Honorable the Legislature or the State of W.oconsin : The Canmocr of Cominerce of the City of Nilwnukeeearnestly remonstrates szuinnt the passage by your Lonorable body of the bitl No. —, or any legislation calculated to exclude from this State the foreign insurance compunics now doing husiness bere, or-others that may desire 1o come liere under existing laws, 1n the linguage of aremonstrance bresented to your honoravie body by this Chamber at the last session agaiust the passage of a bill laving a similar pur- posein view. **the immense strength developed by these companics by their brompt, honorable. and fall settlements of their Josses. in the great fires of Chicago and Boston. have given us great confidence in the intezrity of their manacement and the security of their policies. In aadition to tae large assets represented by these companics, most of them give the personal lability of a!l their stock or share holders to the full extent of their private fortunes. e bave never heard of any losses sustamed by the holders of any policy in covsequence of the ioability of £aid companies to pay. The legislation proposed, or any legislation other than that now existing, we regard as unnecessary and uncailed for in behalf of the interests of policy-holders, who desire the competition and security ofered by the foreign companies.” ‘We betieve that the withdrawal or exclusion of the principal foreign insurance companies would render it impossible to effect suflicient indurance of undoubted security on the large stocks of prod- uce aud merchandise usually hetd in this Staze. A spirited debate of twenty minutes’ duration followed the reading of the mewmorial, when a motion, prevailed to Ilay over until Monday, with the uadersianding that action will then be taken looking to the presentation of the remon- strance in the Legislature on_the following day. e ———— BRING HIM HOME.

REAL ESTATE. The Ln?ns! of the Singer Building—Altera- tions to Prepare the Building for the New Tenunts—3oderate Demand for Realty— s, Loans, and Building Permity of the Week. The lease of the Singer Building to Carson, Pirie, Scott & Co. was reporied during the weels, and formed the stavle of real-estute talk. ‘The unparalleled situation of this building, which uuquestionably is the finest stand in the y for retail trade, and the cxpense and thoroughness with which it bas been made the best store in the West, if mot the United States, have made the public eager to know who would sceure it. Tne TRIBUNE has previously described its claborate construction, which makes it as nearly tire-proof as any build- ingr can be. There is no such store in Loundon, Paris, or New York. To occupy such a build- ing is of itself A VALUABLE ADVERTISEMENT for any firm. The details of the lease bave not besn made known authoritatfiely, but arestated at $70,000 a year. Workmen have already been put 10 work on some alterations desired by Carson, Pirie, Scott & Co.. and the building will be ready for use in a month or two.

This feeling is bused partly on the INCREASED DEMAND FOR RENTS and has not bezun to make much show yet in actual purchases, sales under foreclosure still oceurring occasionally at the lowest panic prices. But there must be a reaction. Owners and agents say there iswmore call for reots than there has been for two or three years at this season. ‘The Herald reports that in New York “fhard pan ? in taxable valuations hide not only been struck, but that things have taken an upward tendency, and that an era of activity, if vot of speculative fever, will set in with the spring and sumiuer months. THIS WONDERFUL CHANGE in what has'been for three or four yeais the worst drug in the market, 5o far as offerini a ficld of investment, has been wrousht in great part by the opening up of rapid. transit on the east side of the city, from the Battery to the Harlem River, and the prospect of the com- pletion, early in the present year, of the exten- sion of the Metropolitari linc un the west side, and the building of the line of the same corpo- ration through'Second avenue. Aunother cause is to be found in the fact that there is less in- cumbered property on Manhattan Island to-day than has been the caso for many years past. The great bulk of property bought since 1375 beea’ paid for ot the time of purchase, Good real estate authorities assert that this is a de- monstratable fact, and thiat its effect wilt soon be felt in securing a healthy tone to the market. v Sttt THE BEGINNING AND THE END.

A letter written by Gen. Jackson shortly be- fore his death has lately been printed in the Co- lumbia (Tenn.) Jerald, the editor of which pos- gesses the original. In this letter oceurs the following passage:_* Your observations with regard to Jumes Buchanan are corrcct. He showed a want of moral courage in the affair of the intrieue of Adams and Clay, and 1 am sure time did belicve there was o perfect understanding between Adams and Clay about the Presudency and the Secretary of State. Vhis Iam sure of. ~ But whetber there was any cor- ruption in the case or not I know not; but vae thing I do kuow, that he wished me to combat them with their own weapous—that was, to let. my friends say it I was elected I would make Mr. Clay Secretary of State. This, to me, ap- peared deep corription, and 1 repelled it with that_honest indignation as I though such cor- ruption deserved. Mr. Buchanan is a man of fine talent, and if he comes into the Departnent. of State will execute the duties with abiity.” ANUSEMENT!
