THe Democratic Seymour Club of the Fif- teenth Ward met at the corner of Larrabee and Centre strects lastevening. Speeches were made by Judge Forrester, Gen. Lieb, Col.

The mention of David Davis, which the speakers could not well avoid, seemed to create the most enthusiasm. TxE Committee of the United Irish Societies to raise funds for the distressed Irish held a meeting last evening at Burke's Hotel for the Purpose of heuring the reports of the various sub-committees who have in charge the ar- rangements for a grand picnic in Ogden's Grove. Owing to the inclemency of the weather the attendance was rather slim. The Committee on Grounds reported that it had secured Ogden's Grove for Sunday, Aug. lf. The Committee on Speakers reported that the following gentlemen would ad the People: James Redpath, Michael Davitt, Patrick Ford, and Patrick A: Collins. The other committees were either not ready to report or not present, and an adjourn- ment was had.

An invitation was extended to the officers of the Division of the Missouri tu be present in a body. Vocal and instrumental musichas been provided, and the decorations will be very fine. Transportation at the rate of two cents per mile each way hus been obtained, and hotel accommodation provided for 2.000 people.

To-day there tukes place at Grace Church the Acdication of a memorial window dedicated to the memory of the late Mr. Hibbard Porter, and executed by the order of Mrs. H. Porter, his widow. The window, some eleven fect in hight, divided in two by a stone pillar, is composed in the late medieval style, and contains two life- size pictures,—one of our Savior as the Good Shepherd, and one of St. James. Our Savior is represented bearing a inmb upon His shoulder and holdmg up His hands to bless the world, whilst St. Jumes, the pilgrim, holds his staf’ and gourd, and looks toward Chris the look of bis Savior that cou: needs to accomplish his weal general colori jc heads encircled in halos.

ABRAHAM LINCOLN. ei ‘The regular monthly meeting of the Chicago Historieal Society ane held Inst evening at the rooms‘of the Association, on Dexrborn avenue. ‘The Hon. Isaac N. Arnold presided. The follow- ing gentlemen were elecied members of the Suciety: Samuel H. McCrea and Augustus H. Wright, of. Chicago: Gen. James Grant Wilson and Gen, J. Wutts De Peyster, ot New York City. Mr. Arnold then introduced Mr. B. W. aurogk: morton, of New Jersey, a delegate to the Na~ tional Convention, who read an_able‘puper on the career of Abraham Lincoln. The geatieman began by suying that he desired to contribute his humble eulogy to Lincoln in a city where the memory of ‘the murtyr-President was so highly and justly venerated, and where his noble character was so well Known and appreciated. He traced the career of Lincoln from boyhood until he reached the Pzesidency, referring to the difliculty he experienced in early life be- cause of a Lick of education, and the self-deny- ing and laborious tusks by which he became uot only a learned man, but, as the speaker said, literally n good man. Asan advocnte before a jury he was not excelled by Webster or Choate, and this proud position was acquired by constant and unceasing effort in the face of circumstances which often deterred less determined characters. His Congressional record indicated none of. the great characteristics which have now become inuttersof history, but in every caso his _youe was upon the side of justice and right, und his t speech at the Cooper Institute made for im an imperishable nainc as an orator and de- bater. Referring to Lincoln's speech at Gettys- burg, the speaker said it was, that it must have been, Divinely inspired, as the sentiments there expressed, he" believed, would echo down through the vista of coming ages, Lincoln's name bad been placed high on the roil of honor, and in his death the Southern people Jost the “best and truest friend they ever bad. or could bave_ had. ‘The paper conciuded ‘with a beautiful peroration, and during the reading the speaker was fre- quently applauded, After passing 2 vote of thanks to Mr. Throck- morton, the meeting adjourned. HYDE PARK. A very sad accident occurred at Fifty-first street yesterday: noon. Fred Hule, a young Englishman of 47,.when returning home trom. the city attempted to jump the truin, and mixs- ing his footing rolled under the cars so that one arm was crushed toa jelly from the shoulder to the hand. Hale was at once attended by two friends, who picked him up, and Hale taking up his arm walked to his home on Jefferson avenue, assisted by his friends. Dr. Flood was called, who examined the case and pronounced ampu- tation necessary to save life. At last accounts Hale is expected to live. He was employed in the abstract office of Handy, Simmons & Co. WASHINGTON. The Extra Pay of Army Officers Who Are on Detached Duty, Together with the Sums They Receive Above That Belonzing to Their Lineal Rank—The Possibilities of Adjournment — Mr. Morris? Loss, Special Dispatch to The Chicago Tribune, Wasuincton, D. C., May 29.—The Secre- tary of War has sent to Congress, in response toa resolution, a statement giving the num- ber of army officers on detached duty from their regiments or corps, with the nature and commencement of such duty, and the amount of extra pay and cash value of emoluments over and above that due to their lineal rank, with the extra allowances, which makes very interesting reading for the line officers who have not had friends at court. Avery large chapter in this statement will be of interest to the Grant men at Chicago. The following are some of theitems: 0. E. Babcock, Major Engineer Corps, extra pay and cash value of emoluments over and above that due to lineal rank, $11,545; F. D. Grant, First Lieutenant Fourth Cavalry, aid de camp to Lieut.-Gen. Sheridan, extra pay, etc., $16,531, Fred Grantis reported as ab- sent from his regiment since Feb. 2, 1873. The other Getached officers who have re ceived the largest amounts of extra pay above their lineal rank are J. C. Audenreid, Captain Sixth Cavalry, Colonel and Aid-de- Camp to the General of the Army, $34,131; J. E. Tourtelotte, Captain Seventh Cavalry, Colonel and Aid-dle-Camp to the General of the Anmy, $25,638; M. V. Sheridan, Captain Seventh Cavalry, Lieutenant-Colonel and Military Secretary to Lieut.-Gen. Sheridan, $21,209; J. H. Coster, Captain Eighth Caval- ry, Aid-de-Camp to Maj.-Gen. Irvin McDow- eli, $3,815; G. A. Forsyth, Major Ninth Cay- alry, Lieutenant-Colonel and Aid-de-Camp to Gen. Sheridan, $13,379; J. M. Bacon, Captain Ninth Cavalry, Coloneland Aid-de-Camp to the General of the Army, $24,992; and W. McK. Dung, Jr., Captain ‘Second Artillery, Aldde-Canip to Brig.-Gen. John Pope, $14,- A Democratic member of the House Ap- propriations Committee said to-night, in sun- ming upthe situation, that Congress would be able to adjourn in ten days unless the Republicans saw fit to prolong the session, * But we are in the hands of the Republican members,” he said, ‘tand everything will depend on their temper.” The General / Deficiency bill is ready to_be reported to the House on Monday next. It is a long bill, and contains a great many items of a ‘mis- cellaneous character, and judging of the treatment the Sundry” Civil _ bill received in the House, it will provoke a deal of debate. It appropriates “$5,000,000, One of the items is the appropriation for United States Marshals, which, now that an early adjournment is out of the question, may give rise to animated debate. ‘The Leg- islative bill comes from the Senate with more than a hundred amendments, some of which will be concurred in by the House, and the rest will have to be accommodated in a Con- ference Committee. What the Democrats are most afraid of is the want of a quorum, On Saturday the House was just able to musteraquorum. Atleast thirty meimbers have asked Jeave of absence, and though an objection was made to granting all these re- uests, it is not likely that any of those gen- Uemen will stay here on that account. On Monday, then, there will scarcely be a quorum in the city. If this is the case, no business can be done after the point is once made. While, therefore, the Democrats still hope to be able to adjourn by the 10th or 15th of June, the more conservative aiong them concede that the session is now quite likely to stretch out until the beginning of July. The friends of Mr. Morris, Clerk to the Li- brarian of Congress, from whom a large sun of money was stolen yesterday at the ‘Treas- ury, are very much grieved at the insinua- tions made in some papers that he connived atthe robbery, Mr. Morris lias been asso- ciated with Mr. Spofford for eighteen years, and the best refutation that can be made of the insinuations against him is the fact that Mr. Spotford not only at once drew his per- sonal check to inake up the loss, so that the employés could be paid, but_in addition e: ressed entire confidence in Mr. Mor The confidence of Mr. Morris’ friends in h integrity is unshaken. ————— C._L. WOODMAN, 3 at No. 61 East Washington street, has been, for the past month, enlarging, painting, and refurnishing his spacious dining-hall. This (with the addition of a fan four feet in diameter which constantly fills the room with fresh, cool air) has given to the public one of the handsomest and best appointed restaurants in the West. The long rows of snowy tables, set above rich. carpeting, glit- ter with polished silver; and the 260 pretty chairs of cane and ebony recall the days of our Viennese rambles, s It has been matter of considerable com- ment that, in the short period of three years, Mr. Woodman has succeeded in winning the regular patronage of an unusually select class, Some attribute this to the fact that he has been, for over twenty years, one of our most relixble business men. Others say it is because there is no sale of wine or beer. We, however, are of the opinion that it is due chiefly to the excellent cooking and: manner of servize. This Mr. Jones is the very prince of head- waiters, as he bows you into w chair with smiling deference. The regular force under him is nade up of thoroughly trained wait- ers, who are deft, quiet, swift, and attentive. ‘The ware is of the daintiest kind and pat- tern. Chicago people do not need to be told what bread and pastry are to be had at so well known a bakery as Woodman’s; but we cannot refrain froin mentioning graham-rolls and short-cake, such as cannot be found elsewhere outside of a private dining-room. And here, at last, is coffee which possesses the never-to-beamistaken Mocha spell; and tea, not kepton draught, but steeped, to or- der, in quaint little silver pots. Mr. Woodman has been very fortunate in securing the. services of a cook whose culi- Bary shill is unrivaled; and the bill-of-fare (uulike most of its Kind) does not promise more, in all its variety, than it fultills in gen- erous quantity and exquisit quality. —————a Delegates and others will visit the leading ad- yertising agency in this elty, Chas.

At 10:30 yesterday forenoon the inmates of ahouse at No. 342 State street found ina room occupied by a cyprian named Ida Prin- diville a young man who had tried to com- mit suicide by cutting a deep gasn in his left arm” at the elbow, in such a manner as to sever the artery. The wound had bled: profusely, and at the time there seemed to be but little chance for his recovery. He was pleased at this, and wanted to be let alone. A :physician’ was hastily summoned, and after ‘putting a tem- porary dressing on the wound, the young nan was hurried off to the Connty Hospital, where at last accounts he was do- ing fairly.

Of course he is much easier controlied when such fs the case. Now the beauty of this all is that Mr.- Leckolt’s -goods are not expensive, but can be had at jess than half ordinary figures.
