As THE NILL of the Reporter to the Crane- Bowen investigation may come before the Coun- cil next Monday night, we hope that body will do full justice by at once taking favorable action thereon. No one, considering the vast amount of labor performed oy the Reporter, to say nothing of the rare skill brought into requisi- tion, and personal expense incurred, can doubt the great fairness and reasonableness of the Will. He might, with great propriety, have charged more for the services rendered. Tue Grant Equestrian Statvx.—The com- mittee having in charge the erection ef the equestrian statue of General Grant have ob- tained a sufficient amount of subscription to warrant them in going on with the work, and have directed the seutptor, J. A. Bailly, to pro ceed with the casting. The statue will be of bronze, cast from cannon captured by General Grant. It is to be of colossal size, the pedestal to be a single block of granite. It will be erect- edon the terrace now being prepared on the south front of the Treasury Building. The ful! height of the statue will be about twenty-five feet, exclusive of the pedestal. The total cost, incla- ding the pedestal, will he about $55,000. Mr. Mullett, the supervising architect of the Treas- ury Department, will have the south front of the ‘Treasury ready for thestatue by the Ist of Jan- uary next. NO LIVING MAN is more successful, while in company, in getting rid of a subject he does not choose to converse upon than General Grant. Many a Galenian who called on him during his three months’ stay here, while the Presidential canvass was in progress, can attest this fact. While sitting in the parlor of an evening, with his family around him, little Nellie perhaps sit- ting on his knee, and a few heighbors passing the evening with them, some politician, just ar- rived on the evening train would drop in. These hours General Grant devoted to his family and personal friends. They were hours of relaxa- tion from care and anxiety, and were not to be disturbed by political debates or conjectures as to the great contest. Our politician would open out on the prospects of the election. No re- sponse from Gen. Grant. If the politician hap- pened to be aman of sense, a few more words from him closed the conversation on that topic. If, on the other hand, he was a persistent bore, he continued till an answer was given, the meaning of which he could not mistake. Gen- erally, however, the General's silence was sut- ficient evidence t the talker that the subject ‘Was not agreeable. This same course the Gen- eral is pursuing at the White House, and it saves him a world of annoyance frem politiciaus.— Galena (IU) Gazette. Berrer Pay ror rue CierKs.—The Cicil Service Journal says + We are authorized to state that the Heads of Bureaus in the Treasury Department have unanimously agred to recomme: y a reorganization of the Department, at a better scale of prices for the greater portion of the clerigal forces. Many of them have in their annual report ee" gp this eee i] of them wil ui re sreare o sommuration eeuall to the aceantion St the service.

The bride was dressed in white satin, trimmei with point applique and tulle, with 4 Eugeni~ trail, fest with box-plaitings and tulle fili- ing.

All the ladies were resplendent in «i monds. The presents were very numerous, and showed a more sensible blending of the useful with the nificent than ix customary on such occasions. Besides the usual display of gold and silver plate, ormolu Clocks, Sevres statuettes, and elegant nick-nacks, there was a complete set of exqui- sitely cut tag presented the bride's mot! another of beautiful Worcestershire chi na, presented by Mrs. Morrison, her auut. LevTER FROM FaTuHER Hyacixtue—The following is the substance of the letter writt: by Father Hyacinthe to the “Evangelical Al ance” meeting held in New York on Thursday: Father Hyacinthe said that he felt gratitied at the honor wn his discourses in P: by their republication in English. He would have been glad to have had them more worthy; but, such as they were, he committed them to the world. He added that he presented them to America and those Protestants churches of which his tal- ented translator was one of the heads. He was preud of being a Frenchman, and France would soon imitate the country which she had done “© much to liberate dari the revolution. He said he continued faithful to the Catholic Chureh, If he had entered a protest against her usurpations, one could Judge of his love by the bitterness of his lament: ver, he was none the less sensible to the svinpathies of the churches of other faiths In the stand he had taken. He did not think that churches sepa- rated from the Catholic communion are the pale of the Mais, Chow. W vide us now, we will be united in the space of time, and all live in bares ef the same eternity and love of the same im common for the great Church of the future. Men had d his is toscorn, but that he had ex] fter expressing himself further, he concluded by saying that forward to e looked one |, One faith, one bay and one shep- Dgrd, and «igned himself Brother Hyacinthe.”” Svierps oF A Lawver.—Thomas W.
