To-morrow being a legal holiday, these of- fices will be closed, Su u PERSONAL.—General N. P. Chipman, who bas been spending the summer in the moun- tain regions of California, has returned to Washington much improved in health. His army of friends here will regret to learn that he will return soon to California to spend the winter, and that it 1s not impossible he will conclude to reside there permanently. +++: Secretary Robeson, Commodore Shu- feldt. and Naval Contractor Hanscom, re- turned to Washington last night. THE REPORT of the chief signal officer of the army gives highly satisfactory evidence of the usefulness of that department of the public service. Of the total number of cau- Uonary signals ordered during the year seventy-six per cent. where afiewards re- | i as justified; inother cases following be display the winds not attaining a vio- lence to justify them. The heavy percent- age of cautions proving correct, however, justifies the general g: opinion of the ser- vice, and will go far towards assuring the legislation recommended to secure greater perfection to the system. INDIAN TROUBLES IN NEw MEXICO.—The Commissioner of Indian A ffairs has recelved irom Alexander R.G. Irvine, Indian agent for the Cimarron agency, New Mexico, a dispatch saying: “The wound I have pre- vents me from taking an active part in the present difficulty. I would recommend that Ube control of affairs be placed in charze of the military authorities present.’’ A later dispatch from him says: ‘Situation un- changed. An Indian prisoner has been shot by a guard. Hostilities are looked for any momen It appears that a week or ten Agent Irvine was shot in the hand by an Indian whom he was trying to arrest. He then called upon the sheriff to arrest the Indian, but he declined to act through fear. Sinee that time it would appear that the In- diaus at the agency had assumed a hostile attitude. THE FUNERAL oF Ligvut. CoLgTAYLor. The remains of the late Col. John MeL. Taylor, (whose death was mentioned in yes- terday’s STAR,) arrived in this city from Baltimore at a quarter to i2 o'clock to-day. Gens. H, F. Clark and A. G. Lawrence, brothers-in-law of the deceased, and numer- ous friends accom: led the body. The casket was of black walnut, dra wita mourning, and elaborately finished. It was covered with elegant flowers, and several Wreaths and crosses were added before plac- ing itin the hearse. The body was borne from the cars to the hearse by eight rezulai from the artillery corps ‘ort McHenry, Baltimore. The following gentlemen were ail bearers: Gen. B. + Brice, Gen. J. B. ‘rye, Col. H. W. James, Lieut. Edward Ma- guire, Capt. A. McLaughlin, Frank Sulli- van, 8. R. Smith, and John Ellicott. Nuam- erous carriages were in attendance, and the cortege slowly proceeded to Oak Hill ceme. tery, Georgetown, where there were appro- priate services, Dr. Watkins, of Epiphany Church of this city, officiating. CONTESTED ELECTION CASES IN THE Hovse.—The clerk of the House of Represen- tatives has already received notices of fifteen contestants, and the papers in many of the cases have already been filed. The contests are in the following districts: First and sec- ond of Alabama; second, third and ninth of lilinois; thirteenth of Indiana; ninth of Ken- tueky; third, fourth and fifth of Louisiana; fourth of Massachusetts; first and second of South Carolina; second of Virginia, and eighth of Wisconsin. The last case isone of — interest, for the reason that it is the irst of the kind that has ever occurred. The candidates were Alexander 8. Dill, rep., and George W. Cate, dem. Cate held the certifi- cate, but the case was sent to the courts on some local question. Both men to abide by the decisionof the Supreme Court ofthe siate. The court decided in favor of Dill, although, as before stated, Cave held the Governor's certificate of election. Dill has since died. The questions for the House todecide are whether Cate is entitled to the 8¢ at; to whom the salary belongs to the time of Dill’s death; and whether a new election is necessary. —_—_.-20e- The South Carolina Railroad Horror.

Some seven years ago @ southere jurist of some ability and position came to Washing- ton to follow his profession, bringing wit him his pretty daughter, scarcely sixteen, but in whose large, languid, dark eyes flashed fires of future power and witchery, and whose regular features and clear olive skin gave promise of more than ordinary beauty. She was, in fact, quite the toast at ber tender age among the society men, avd more than one knelt at her youthfal, girlish shrine. Poor thing! She was motherivss, and her father, ocenpied with his proiessio:. knew but very little of what was passing a! home, over Which his pretty child-daughter ruled without dispute. Her education was a matter dreamed of, but never consummated, Society and beaux were her only instructors, aud they taught her to believe that beauty and coquetry were omnipotent scepters. Her foot was pronounced a trifle above perfection by the most fastidious Beau Brummeis, and her dainty bronze gaiters were the cynosure of all masculine eyes, while her danciag was heralded as the poety of motion indeed. After two or three you of this flattery and adulation, the pretty creatnre very naturally grew vain and vainer, and hernaive manners eS place to almost intolerable affectation. till her beauty remained so ny effective that men continued to rave, ai- though in more mod tones, and with some mental reservations. After having flirted and captured and thrown aside num berless hearts, she married—as flirts gene- rally do—a thoroughly worthless, unprin- pled fellow, with a shallow kind of smart- ness. and a face handsome enougn, after a devil-may-care fashion. He proved his faithiessness at a very early stage of the honeymoon, as a young girl, known in the best.social circles, went to her LIGHT. B, Peter family physician and asked his assistance in hiding her shame and venting a fearful scandal. Said her ician with tender gravity: “My poor child, you have griev- ously sinned, and now you desire that I should add crime to the burden of your guilt, and staio my own soul therewith. I can not do as you desire, but I will try and see what I can do to bring abont a marriage between you and your betrayer.” “Oh! doctor, that cavnot be. I am worse than lost, for Lhave been led astray by a married man, and that man with a young and beautifal wife. There is nothing to excuse my conduct, and no rep- aration can ever be made.” The doctor was thoroughly shocked, and insisted upon Knowing the libertine’s name, and afier a rreat deal of persuasion the unfortunate girl told him it was Mr. Blank. The doctor saw that the miserable, sinful one was taken from the city to prevent 1, and then visited the heartless seducer and told him that unless he left the city matters wouid be made uncomfortabie for him.
