The provisions of the bill, as agreed upon, are similar to those noticed in Tue Stax of yesterday, except that the 7th sec- tion,which applies to National Banks, is stricken out, and they remain upon the same basis as at present. The report was agreed to in the Senate. ‘THE COMMAND OF THE WASHINGTON Navy Yarp.—Seeretary Robeson has ordered Captain T. H. Patterson to assume temporary command of the Washington Navy Yard until a successor to the late Admiral Dahlgren shall be appointed. It ie thought in official circles that Rear Admi- ral M. Smith, Chief of the Bureau of Equip- ment and Recruiting at the Navy Department, will be appointed to the command of the Yard in place of Admiral Dahlgren. THE Washington correspondent of the Cincin- nati Commercial saye: “It is stated that the President has under con- sideration, in the event of the rejection by the Senate of the nomination or Mr. Oliver to the District Supreme Court, a life position, the pro priety of appointing Mr. John M. Langston, a colored law, of note, who is at present the law professor at the Howard University.” With all deference to the prevailing mode of making appointments for this District, we may perhaps hazard the opinion that to know a little law ought not to be @ positive disqualitication tor a Judgeship, and the next nominee might as well be a lawyer, whether white or black.

REDUCING SALARIES—One of the effects of the new legislative, judicial and executive ap- Propriation bill will be to cut down very mate- rally the salaries of the heads of divisions of the Treasury Department, many of whom are now receiving from $2,200 to $3 ,¢ per annum, by ad- dition to the regular salaries of “extra compen- sation.” Their pay comes down under this bill to $1,400. An attempt will be made, however, to set aside the new law by a rider to the omni- bus bill, which is now under consideration. NomINations.—The following nominations were sent in to-day: Wm. C. Whitson, to be Associate Justice Su- preme Court Idaho. Wales Hubbard, It Lewiston, Idaho, Hutchinson, of Ar! Covsuls—W. L. ansas, at Santa Cruz; P. G. W. Jewell, of Miss., at Pernanbuco; Lorenzo M.

General Sherman called to-day and saw Mrs. Dahlgren, who expresses the wish that the attendance on the morning 6f the funeral be contined to the family and their immediate friends as far as practicable. A great many triendsof the late Admiral have called to take a last look at his features to-day. ‘The tlagson the public buildings and hotels throughout the city are to-day displayed at half- mast, in respect to the memory of the late Ad- miral. It will be seen by the official announcement ot Mayor Emery in another column, that he has called the Councils ether to make arrange- ments for their attending the funeral in a body. OFFICIAL ORDER.
