Wade, and he expressed the opinion that the decision evcluding Quartermasters’ employees from the benefit of the act of Congress giving 2 per cent. was & very unjust one. It was thought by several members and Sen- Sters that Mr. Farnsworth:s bill meluding em- ployees of the Currency Bureau, could be amended so as to inclade the Quartermaster’s “Ft r imble thought the bill was in excel- lent Bands, and Mr. Schenck would do ali in his power to have it passed After some debate, a motion was adopted —— that the committee from Lincoln Jepot who bad been looking after the bill, should be continued, and one gentleman from each dey ent be added tothe committee.

The committee was instructed to meet this morning at * o'clock, at the National Hotel. in order to present the resolution and urge the passage of the same to-day. Mr. A.S.

A Curar FILTBR.—To those ef our readers who sre compelled to use the Potomac water tor drinking and culinary purposes, even when it is muddy or impure, we regeommenad the cheap and serviceable filtering arrange- ment described in a recent number of a medi- cal magazine-—it is an ordinary flower-pot, plugged (not tightly) at the bottom with a sponge. A layer of coarsely powdered char- coal, about one inch thick, is placed in the bottom of the pot, then another layer of sand of the same thickness, then pebbles, coarse gTavel, and stones are placed on the whole. ‘This forms an admirable filter, and one withia the reach or the poorest.

We learn that the allotment of four days to a ward was hee te experimental, and that if it is found that this time is not sufficient for the work it will be extended. Yesterday afternoon, the Judges of Election continued the work of recording the names of Voters in the First Ward. Thecrowd was somewhat larger thar en the previous day, but was verv orderly. During the evening 650 names were recorded, of which 228 were white, and 422 celored, making the total for the two days 1,175—756 colored, and 419 white. A few ot theapplicants were challenged, and five were rejected—two colored, on account of not being residents of the ward, two on ac- count of not being able to eertify to their age, and one white who could not prove that he was naturalized. The registers are taking great pains in their work, carefully noting the residence of each applicant for the purpose of identification. aay will probably remain in the First Ward on Friday, and perhays Satar- day, and will commence their work in the Second Ward on F street, near 15th, on Mon- day evening. a RECOVERED.—-Last Sunday a week ago, Mr. H.C.

This morning & colored man named John Francis Thomas went to pawn it ai an office on 4% street. The broker had a description of the bracelet given to him by Detective Coomes, and therefore retained it. Thomas went to the detectives to let them know about it, and went with detectives Miller and Qoomes to the broker's office. It was fully identified as the lost bracelet, and Thomas +roved that he found it near the National Theater. The property was delivered to Mr. Marston, whe rewarded Tbomas for the trouble he took to find the de- tectives. —_»—__—.
