Deduct from this the drverence of value between pressed brick and first quality red brick, and omission of clock (#3,400), and there was left the sum of j 251.24. | “the Commissioners further stated that, without conceding that the contractor had a valid claim against the District in respect of the old contract, they were prepared to consent to his resoming work upon condi- tions that the sum of $44,251.24 be a full allowance for completion of the contract ac cording to specification, excepting the changes recommended by the commission as to the block and ehange of brick, and to include the extra work mentioned in the report of the board. Another condition was that the building should be completed be- fore January 15, 1876, at_@ cost of $44,251.24, to be paid for in cash. This proposition was shortly afterwards accepted by Mr. Naylor, apd the work was resumed riyin the present season, and has been completed ina satisfactory manner in advance of the time required under the contract. In order to have the building in readiness for use the coming winter it was necessary to have considerable additional work done, both in the interior and exterior. The pave- ment on K street was to be laid, leads and approaches to the building to be made, lot graded, an abutment wall constructed, court ty stalls and stands constructed, «c. ‘be Commissioners, finding that they did not possess the necessary means to meet the expense of completing the improvements Were at a loss what to do, but finally, on the Isth instant, entered into contract with Mr. Thos. Lewis, who had done the brick work aylor, to do this outside work, in. cluding the repaving of K street, between 19th and 20th streets, on the site of the old the improvement of the grounds of the market house, &c, in ac- cordance with the specifications, and to the entire satisfaction of the inspector of buildings, and he agreeing to receive from the Commissioners such material which they may have suitable for his work, and to pay for such material the market price therefor, the sum to be deducted from the amount due him upon bis contract. It was furtheragreed that upon the completion of said work, and the work upon the interior to be done by Mr. Naylor, the District Commissioners ‘shail each of which is to pay a certain monthly rental, not to be increased during the thirty years of the right of occupancy, viz: butct- ers stalis, $8 per month; bacon, $5; $4.50; fish, $4; hucksters, $4; miscellaneous, $4; and the Commissioners shall offer 2t public auction, to the highest bidders, the Tight to occupy such stalis from the day of sale, conditioned upon the payment in ad- vance of the monthly rent, upon the pay- ment at maturity of the bonus notes, and upon the faithful observance of the market regulations by the stall-holders, and subject also toa full and prompt compliance with the terms of sale of tne right to occupy, | which terms shall be settled by the payment of twenty per cent. in cash, aud the residue of the purchase money to be divided into four equal annual instalments, for whicu deferred payments purchasers shall give their promissory notes, satisfactorily en- dorsed, bearing eight per cent. interest until aid. The Commissioners agree with Mr. ‘wis that upon the compietion of the sale of tbe stalls they will pay over to him and Mr. Naylor pro rata of the amounts doe them, all of the moneys received as cash payment, less expenses of sale, and assiza to the contractors so much of the bonus notes as will at thelr par value cover te balance remaining due, &c., &c. The cost of the work to be done by Mr. Lewis is 816,923 01. A similar contract has also been made with Mr. Naylor forthe constraction of stalls and finishing the interior work not included in tbe original coptract, said work to cost $5.75 20, to be paid in the same manuer as that due Mr. Lewis. There is to be 105 stails, the frames to be of Florida clear heart pine, the horizontal bars of which are to be mate of straight grained white ash, free fron knots. The hooks to ba of first quality large size galvanized secured by scret The back of ali wali stards to be lined up to the full height, of narrow miil dressed, ploughed and groved beaded clear while pine, Lot to exceed 3 imebes in widtb, and thoroughly secared.

Pitne Work bas been entered into, and the whole will soon be completed, when the old market sheds will be abandoned and sold at Public auction. The work has thus far been satisfactorily executed, and altogether the Western mar- ket house will possess advantages to the oc- cupants perhaps superior to any market in the District. —_-—___ A HEAVY COURT CALENDAR —The cal- endar for the present term of the Supreme Court of the District (in General Term) is quite @ heavy one, numbering one hundred and twenty-two cases in all.

Some republican scribe, in writin; about his mouth, evolved from the depths o1 bis malignant fancy the conceit that it was put on warm and spread all over bis coun- lenance. His mouth is decidedly large, and when he laughs, which is at very rare inter- vals, it jeopardizes the comfort of his ears. He is @ gaunt man like Lincoln and as homely as @ snake fence. He has a thin, hatchet face and an uneven and an unpleas- ant complexion. In repose his expression is sorrowful and meditative, his mouth Bcc Ho grim and awful grace.” His tall, lanky Ogure is surmounted by a wide- brimmed soft hat, and taken in connection With his singular limbs, which seem to be gnarled, and his slouching forward gait, reminded me faintly of @ cocoanut tree in & gale of wind. I studied for ten minutes or 80 the expression of his eyes, which gave me the idea that he was a Kindly-hearted man @ fair share of intelligence and shrewdness. His “Blue Jeans,” at which all the nobs and snobs of this western country have leveled their bitterest ridicule, appeared to me a most respectable and becoming sult. The blue is of a quiet, subdued tone, like an intensified confederate gray. It is @ very superior quality of jean, as I was informed by @ dry goods democrat, who actually took hold of it on the person of the candidate and Fubbed it between his fingers to see how much cotton was in it. Like Lincola, he ig ho orator, but @ great relator of anecdotes. In fact, his speeches consist of little else Ses ieteot Stories of which he is “re- mi 5S A JESSE POMEROY IMITATOR.—The Mon- tr.se (Penn.) Republican of last week says: “Francis Van Barringer, a boy about Lwelve years of age, whose parents reside in Windsor, N.

On Thursday afternoon of last week he alluded the little son of Mr. John Shipley, who is about five years of age and son of J. B. McCreary, aged about seven years, into the barn, he told the boys he was going to Kill them. The Reporter, of that place, thus describes the actious of the young flend: ‘After getting young McCreary into the barn be strip) the boy of his clothing and then proceeded to beat him With @ heavy strap, causing the biool to flow until the little fellow sank helpless to the floor. The juvenile find then placed the strap around his victim’s neck and attempt- ed to hang bim to the round ladder. Just as the diabolical act was about to be con- summated several boys rushing Into the barn, and seizing the demon, dragged him by main force to the office of Justice DuBois from whence he was sent to jail. This tmely interference alone saved tha life of ttle McCreary.

The vessel was at the mercy of the waves,on a lee shore for seven hours. Fivaily her anchors were gotten out an after losing one, the other one held her head to the gale. Shortly after getting the an- cbors out itwas found that the water was rising rapidly in the bold, and it was feared that the vessel would sink. The captain took some provigjons and water to the cross trees, and, iso, carried his wife and two children, who were on board, to the same place, lasbing them to the rigging, where they remained for four bours. The captain then returned to the deck, and, together with the crew, worked the pumps for six or eight hours before the vessel was got clear, and the men for the first time in thirty-six bours got something to eat.
