Up to the time of the expi- tion of Rodman’s patent, in 1867, Knap had paid him $65,000 royalty, but a number of guns manufactured before the expiration of the patent remained on hand, on which no royalty was paid. These guns were not sold until 1871. and then royalty was refused on the allega- tions that the patent had expired. Knap did not enforce the payment of the royalty by the manufacturers, and it is claimed came responsible for the sum. WANTS TO BE Divoxcep.—Mr. J. MeD.Car- rington has for Robert H.

REORGANIZATION OF THE BOARD OF COMMIS- SIONERS. A regular meeting of the Board of Fire Com- missioners was held last evening, present Messrs. Collins (in the chair), Reed (secreta- ry), Tait, Bacon,Quantrell, Stewart and Hume. A letter from Major Thomas P. Morgan was read, announcing that his resignation as fire commuassioner had been accepted, and express- ing his regret at severing official relations which had N so pleasant; also expressing his best wishes for the future of the depart- ment, and promising the aid and co-operation of his ent osition. Gen. Bacon offered a resolution, which was adopted, ‘that the abili- ty, energy and zeal of Major Thomas P. Mor- gan in his direction of the affairs of the fire department intrusted to him as president of this board, and his uniform courtesy and im- partiality as presiding officer won him the re- Spect and esteem of his fellow-commissioners, who receive the announcement of his resigna- tion of the position with sincere regret at sev- ering official relations which have been so agreeable.” : he presidency of the board being vacant on account of the resignation of Major Mor- gan, Mr. Wm. R. Collins was elected to that position. Col. James A. Tait was elected vice resident to succeed Mr. Collins, and Mr. Wm. Bi Reed was reelected secretary.

Leonard, James Butler and Henry. A check of $15 was received from the Board of Fire Underwriters for Samuel E, Ed- wards, a member of the department, who had his arm broken at the Patent Office fire, and was accepted on his behalf with thanks. GRACE GREENWOOD’s LEC TU RE.—Every one was delighted with Grace Greenwood's lecture last night on “ The Heroic in Common Life.” Her leading idea was that the grandest, or most pathetic examples of heroism in famous historical personages, can find par- allelsin the lives of men and women of ordi- nary condition and of humble fortunes. A wealth of effective anecdote. a happy wording of well conceived fancies, a minuteness and delicacy of description. especially in treating home scenes, and, skilfully interspersed, gems of pathetic incident and flashes of wit, not unflavored with sarcasm, made the lecture most enjoyable. The audience was sympa- thetic and ‘appreciative, and seemed to wish for more when she done. Several songs by the Hutchinson family were an agreeable feature of the evening's entertainment. After the leeture, Mr. A. M.-Clapp, of the Republi- can, in behalf of several members of the press resident in this city, presented to the lecturer, a pen and feather-shaped penholder, made en- firely of solid American gold—a beautiful and costly, as well as appropriate, token of ri spee!. The many Washington friends of this brilliant writer’ and noble-hearted woman join with Mr. Clapp, in offering best wishes for her future prosperity and happiness. George W. njamin T.

MORPHIOMANTA has become a great scourge in Berlin since the introduction of opium in- jections as a relief from bodily suffering and sleeplessness, Tradespeople,merehants, judges, barristers, soldiers, students, doctors and cler- men become the victims. of the habit, and when the medical attendants are called in it is | too late to counteract the evil. At first, these subcutaneous injections offer the quickest and easiest means to allay pain and bri ng. rest to the sufferer. But to prove effectual in its cure, the treatment must be continued for a certain time; and during that period the pa- tient becomes so accustomed to these skin in- jections that they become indispensable. When he medical practitioner refuses to increase the doses, the patient is unable to sleep or rest without the calming injection, procures the necessary instruments and applies the remedy himself. " Sometimes, also, even after the pa- tient has been cured without any undue doses, and when he should dispense with the opium injections, he delays aoing s0 under the plea that they make sleep aud rest so well. In fact, when once these sub-cutaneous injec. tions have begun, they can be rarely left off. Like drink, the appetite for them increases until chronic drunkenness ensues. 4%- An English girl says that men given to brutal pleasures are not those who dauce.
