Tre Vacant Mason Genematsnir.—There is quite a diversity of opinion as to the power of t.e President to go out of the list of the eight Brigadier Generais in making the appointment to fll the vacant major generalship caused by the death of General Meade. There is no law bearing directly on the subject, and the Presi- dent undoubtedly has the mght to appoint any one he pleases. No matter whether he be in the army or not, being ve-ted with that power by the ‘Constitution. At the breaking out of the rebellion in 1851, Mr. Lincoin appointed General Halleck and Genera! Fremont to the grade of major general in the army from civil life, but there is not an instauce on record ot the appoinament of a major genera from civil life during the time of peace The law in relation to major brigaie generals, passed July i5th, 1870, is as follows That no appointment to’ the grade of majo general shall be made until the number o cfticers ot that grade is reduced below three attcr which the number of major generals shal not excecd three. That no appointment to t grade of brigadier general shall be made u the number of oficers of that grade is redu: below six, after which the number of brigadier generals shall not excccd six.” It was clearly the intontion of Ci above act to reduce the number of bo and brigadier generals, but that redaction call only be mace by casuaities, as the number thea exceeded the figures named in the act, and th~ President would only be carrying out the inten- tion of Congress by appointing the new major general from the grade below nd thus redace the number. He has already had the claims of various persons presented, bat it — ts tmored that he has ’ referred the whole matter to General Sherman, Bd will be guided by the opinion of that officer: It is said that Goneral A. E. Burhside, of Rho te Island, is ons of the prominent applicants, and is backed by Vice-President elect Wilson. It is stated, alo, that Assistant Quartermast +r General Kufus Ingalis andother promin: cers are urging the appointment of Meigs to the position. Brig. Generals 0. O. Howard, E. R. S. Canby, and A. | HL Terry are also mentioned’ in connection with’ the position. It is also whispered that the name of Secretary Belknap has been pre- sented to the President, but that officer has raid nothing about it himeelf, his claim being urged by friends. Some have it that the con- test is narrowed down to Secretary Belknap and General Burnside. Twe Fashionable Weddings. The wedding of Mr. Andrew C. Bradley and Miss Sue H. Young took place this afternoon at the New York avenue Presbyterian church, the Rev. S. 8, Mitchell officiating. The groom is the son of Charles A.

Quitea number of changes have been male which add to the comfort and appearance of that portion of the Capitol. The old carpe" which was put on the floor of the Senate cham- ber about two years ago will be put down again for this session, being almost as good now as when it was first made, but in several or the mimittee Tooms new carpets will be lald down. The ventilation om this side of the building has Iso been improved to @ great extent. The tem peratnre of the Senate chamber will also be equalized by the improvements by meaus oi registers which have been placed inthe gal- leries, Heretofore there has been an accr ay tion of foul almosphere in the lobby pack of the Senate chamber where it Was necessary tu keep the gas constantly parning to furnish light, and this heaied atmosphere would aris: to the gailery above and oftentimes become of fensive. Perforated plates have now been put in the ceiling of the loboy over the chandelier and air ducts constructed from these to the flues leading out of the building. Another tlus leads from the heating department below to the *pace under the gallery seats and HOT OR COLD alg is forced up to that space, and then into the chamber. Heretofore the temperature in the galleries has been 6 or 7 degrees higher than on the ticor, but by the improvements it will be equalized in all’ parts of the chamber. New registers have aiso been placed in the reporter's gallery, over the Vice President's chair, and the Pilasters around the chamber have been re- gilded.
