Jones, from first to second class. George E. Dyer has been appointed a laborer in that office. UsmrUL INVENTION.—Messrs. Woodralf & Green, of this city, have invented a combined file and pigeon-hole that is coming into gen. eral use in the Departments. The he2¢s of Teaus warmly endorse it as a very “conveni- ent, safe, and expeditious mode of filing.” 1t is so simple and yet so perfect in its operations that it seems to be sure to supersede all the Present styles of file and pigeon-hole. Ta¥ Ercar Hous Law.—Senator Wilson has addressed a letter to the Secretary of War dissenting from the official construction placed ‘Upon the eight-hour law. He maincains, first, that the law was passed in answer to numer. ous petitions of mechanics and working men employed in the Government establishment: secondly, that it was the intention of Congress to fully ineet their views, and thirdly, that the law was plain upon the subject. Cotorzp CLERK APPOINTED.—The an- mouncement yesterday that two more colored men had been appointed to clerkships im the Treasury Department was without foun- dation. William S. Bosemon, (colored) of Troy, N. Y., was, this morning, appointed to Ist class clerkship in the Third Andito office. He was recommended for appointment by Senator Fenton, Hon. F. A. Sawyer, and Hon. T. J. Robertson. How. Wm. A.

Mr. Richardson has not yet determined Whether or not he will accept the position and Tesign the Assistant Secretaryship.

ART.—Mr. Kellogg bas just completed two exquisitely painted portraits, which may be geen for a few days at his gallery, over Galt’s Spwelry store,—iikenesses of a gentleman ai Indy of this city. The picture of the gentle- man is remarkably strong in drawing, color: and expression, while that of the lady exhibits qnusual delicacy im tone and treatment. We Rave rarely seen better management of the hu- man hand than is shown in the latter portrait. _ Mr. Kellogg's pencil this troublesome ject, ordinarily & blemish in a fine picture, is rendered a real attraction, and adds materially 10 the harmony and beauty of the composition. ‘The artist is now engaged on a portrait of Hon. D. W. Voorhes, which promises to be a great success; and we are pleased to learn that he is receiving such encouragement as justifies the Rope that he will be permanently located herc- —AtSmith’s art gallery, on Pennsyivan‘a N°. 5,03].
