The subject of underground telegraph wires in cities, and the feasability of adopting such pian for this city, which has so long been urged by THE Srae, eeemsto b? growing in pudiic favor, and has warm and intelligent advocates in Lieut. F. V. Greene, assistant engineer in charge of the streets and avenues, and in Licut. R. L. Hoxie, im cbarge of the ‘sewet system for the District of Columbia. This sul ject was treated In a very able manner in Lient. Greene's last annual report, in which he advocated the abandonment of poles for tel2- graph wires, atid the use of the public sewers, £0 far as practicable, for the laying of wires, A brief survey of the sewerage plan andof the location of large sewers already constructed shows conclusively how convenient they are @nd their adaptability for this purpose. FOR THE MOST PART the telegraph lines enter the city on the north side and there are no less than seven different places where they could easily enter larze brick sewers of sufficient capacity for workmen to operate in with ease and attach the wires to the crown of the sewers, outof the way of harm, and where they can be conducted to ajmost apy point in the city where an office might te desirable. Lteut. Greene states that there can be, s0 far as he can see, no objection tothe use of sewers for this purpose, If 1% ig Lot overdone and the sewers are carefully us°d by the workmen, and that the security to the wires would be perfect. THESE APPROACHES and places of entry, a8 stated, are into sewers leading to larger ones, and the city could be easily compassed. Commencing in the north- west Section, there isa feasibie entry at 17th and Boundary streets, into a four feet diameter barrel sewer leading into the Slash run sewer. The next ts at 14th and N streets, the head of the 14th street sewer, wntch at this point ts about five feet in diameter and increases in size to its mouth, at the B street outiet, Another 1s by way of Sth street extended, a four or five feet diameter sewer ee eee by the way of Boundary street to the large North Capitol street sewer, which runs down direct to E street, where it passes obliquely across lots back of the Baltimore and Valo Fallroad depot, connecting with the Tiber branch sewer which rung into the James creex canal. The North Capitol sewer is about 14 feet inside diameter, and there is abundance of rocm for telegraph wires. The next entry which could be utilized 1s at lst and Boundary Streete—a five foot diameter sewer which also Connects with the North Capitol sewer; an- other entrance could be made at Boundary and 2d _ streets east—the sewer which drains the creek ruoping by Gales’ farm; also a large sewer connecting with the North Capitol street sewer. Another good entrance is at 10th and Boundary east, which 13 also a large sewer running into the same large sewerin North Capitol street. All of these sewers Increass in size as they descend towards the heart of the city, and éfford plenty of room for all the cables which will be’ likely to be needed for teegieph purposes, and room enough for workmen. When 3d street at the Botanical gardens is reached, the connection with the Missour! avenue sewer is perfectly feasable as jaras the Baltimore and Potomac rallroad depot, end at this point THERE WOULD BE A BREAK of about half a square, where there 1s no sewer of sufiicient size to be used for the wires. This occurs between 6th street and the term!nus of the B street sewer, about half way of the square between 6th and 7th street, but there wonld be no difficulty in running the wires thiougb a terra cotta pips, which could easily be taid for the purpose under the sidewalk. Tais potnt reached, there would be a clear course down the B street sewer to 14¢h or 17th streets, and there are large lateral sewers leading up Tth, 9th, 10tb, 11Cb, 121h, 13th and 14th streets to almost any point north of the avenue desired. THE SMALL SEWERS. A large portion of the sewers In the cross streets are terra cotta pipe, ranging from 12 to #0 inches, which could nct well be used for wires, owing to their small size and a lack of tastening facilities, yet in some cases they inight be used short distances when desired to inake connections, THE MUTUAL UNION TELEGRAY'H COMPANY, anew line now being made, are the first to in- augurate this plan of utilizing sewers for this purpose. Their line enters the city on poles by Way of Sherman avenue and 10th street, and by an angular zigzag course until they reach l2th street and New York avenue, where It -aters the sewer on the southwest corner of the street and follows down the New York avenus, interceptipg the sewer just laid by Lieut. Hoxie ard following it to the office on_15th etreet. THE MANNER OF ENTEGING THE SEWER at this point ts quite interesting. There are séme eight or ten wires, anda large straight pole is planted at the north side of the avenue, yery deep and securely fixed with a wood foot and braces under ground to prevent the strain of the wires upon It from turning 1c over. ‘This pole has a groove cut in it about 2 inches deep,and about the same in width from thetop 'o the bottom. The wires are all brought to- gether in one cable, and run down thi3 pole to the ground, where the cable enters a terra cotta pipe laid under ground across the street to the sewer, which 1s reached by way of a mcnhole. The cable is then continued through the sewer, fastened to the crown of the arch with iron’ staples at convenient distances, The wires being insulated requires no other fastening, and should any break cccur, which 1s not likely to be the case, the sewer 13 acces- cessible at every manho-e and ess ly traveled. This same company has permission from the District authorities to enter the North Capitol Sewer at New York avenue to conduct their wires to the CapitoL. OPINION OF ENGINEER OFFICERS, Lieut. Hoxte states that he thinks there can be no objection to th use of the sewers for this purpose, unless Injury 13 done them in making the fastenings for the wires, in which case the privilege would have to be denied the companies. He thinks it would not inter- Tere with the flow of water, and that the wires would be secure from many of the damages incident to outside exposure. ——- A New Church Organized.

The efforts by leading German citizeas to establish a German orphan asylum in this Dis- trict have at last been crowned with entire success, and there is now in tull operation su2a. an institution, with its inma‘es, ofiicers, ma- tron, physicians and all the appurtenances needed to found a permanent and valuable charity. The unpieasant though slight « fer- ence which existed about a year or two since among its acttve members in relation to the best Jocation was happily adjusted by a mu- tual itto purchase the very ellgivie ‘Bul property of Captsia 8. G. Capail, situated on the Good Hope road, about three- fourths of a mile from the Eastern ranch ldge. The fund forming the nucleus of tuis institution has been by contrioution, entirely among the German element, with the exception of a rc Appropriation of $10.009 by Congress to im procuring a sultabie site and buildings to make a commencement. The wisdom of selecting and purchasing tais site 1s, already pretty generally conceded. THE ASYLUM PROPERTY cons'sts of thirty-two acres of land, with a large and substantial frame mansion bousr, contain fifteen rooms; a jarge Darn and stables and other outbuildings, on an elevated site over- looking the entire clty from the southeast, and ee ee commanding outlook. ‘Ths land is rolling, with bill and vale, well dratned, fronting on a road, plenty of forest shaa-, abundant supply of excellent water from both well and gS, siry, and In all respacts destrable, @ whole is now covered with a luxuriant growth of except the flelds ‘under cultivation for other crops, and it is the purpose of the managers to make the institu. Uon as nearly self-sustaining as possible by the crops which can easily be raised.

Already there are 40 orphan children inmates, their ages Tangipg from three years up toten. The rooms are now occupied as a kitchen, dining room, bath and washroom, waiting room, school and play rooms, wide halls and stair. Ways, Infirmary, and e'ght sleeping rooms. The handsome lawns surrounding the house afford most Aig goo Play grounds for the children, and they ail look bright, healthy and happy. Mrs. Welgman, the very excellent matron in ebarge, takes the best care of them, and they all enjoy the situation much. It is the inten- Uon of the managers to give out annually to each Of the larger boys, a small piece of land to cultivate themselves, letting them exercise toaconsiderable extent their own taste and judgment, thus encouraging habits of industry 6nd 8 love of country life and pursuits. The extent of this place affords the beat of pasture facilities, although but one good cow is kep*. Others will be added, with other stock, also domestic animals and fowls, as fast as the funds will admit of it. The institution 1s but in tts infancy, and has to be supported by sub- scriptions and contributions of its members and friends. There is PLENTY OF ROOM FOR EXPANSION to any desired dimensions, a3 fo room and ac- commodations, which will in time become becessary, and the time fs not far distant when \bis fine property will largely Increase in value. Already the asylum has become a qulet resori, especially on Sundays, for many of Its patrons, The cool shades, good spring water, Sunday exercises for the children, tlowers, &c., are very attractive at this season.

On page 101, consolidated statutes relating to the District of Columbia, 13 to be found the law relating to the selection of jurors for the courts of this District. Formerly the selec- tion of jurors was altogether In the hands of the marshal of the District. In 1862 Congress dan act on this subject, appointing the Panter of the city of Washington’ the recorder of Georgetown, and the clerk of the court of the county to select the names for jury box, and place ballots containing the names in aid box On or before the Ist of each year. It was directed that the ballots 80 made skould be folded so that the names should not be seen, and that after theee officers should have Cepcsited tne names In the box they should seal it, and after the box was thoroughiy sbaken deliver tt to the clerk of the court. These officers were directed to select 400 names from the citizens of Washington, 50 from Georgetown and 40 from the county, THE PRESENT SYSTEM. ‘The abolishment of the ofices above named, consequent upon the consolidation of the three governments we had in the District, it became necessery to change the law, and by act of APprii, 1871, the power to appointcommissioners for this purpose was vested in the Court in General Term, and the court shortly after ap. Pointed a board of jury commissioners, and these served several years in succession. Some few years ago Col. W. A. Cook chalienged the array of tke grand jury because the names Were not canvassed by the entire commission before being placed in the box; in other words, ortiniee or fo mre seni had acte jently of the others in ai D his list, ‘and tne polnt was decided well taken Up to this lime, as far as known, every re- quirement of the law has been complied wita, | and from actual observation it can be said that there never bas been fairer drawings made than those made by the clerk. ‘The present recently appolnted commissien rs are George W. Riggs {the banker), Joka A Bae ker ealer in agricultural implements), W. B. Reed (of Reed’s Sens, grocers). Samuel Cross (ineurance agent), and John Thomas Johnson (former district treasurer ) The comaissione:s gave much careful attention to the work of selecting a Fed, reputable jury list, and Mr. Riggs es} ily devoted much of his valuable Une to Ubis arduous but necessary duty, Asa resvit It is believed that both the petttend grand juries drawn from this list will be much above the average in character and intelligence, FURTRER ABOUT JURIES. ‘The law further provides that at least ten days before the commencement of each term held as a Circuit Court or as a Criminal Court, respectively, the clerk shall pubilcly break the seal of the jury box, and proceed to draw therefrom the names o1 so many persons as are required. {f the jury is intended for service in the Special Term, sitting as a Criminal Court, then the 23 persons whose names shall be first drawn shall constitute the grand Jars, and the twenty-six persons whose name shall be next drawn shall constitute the petit jury for that term. The names of the persons drawa shall not be placed in the jury box again for vico years, Those drawn for the June term of the Criminal Court will ba summoned to attend cen Monday, the 20th Inst. Upon the assem- bling of court other provisions of law will be- come operative, as follows: If the persons selected as jurors do not attend, the court may order {he marshal to suwnons oilers WhO the legal quatificatiors, to supply the deficlency.” ‘S63. If at any time there should net be, by reason cf challenge or otherwise, a sufficient number of jurors to make up the panel, the court sha'l order the marshal to summon a8 many tales- menas may be necessary for that purpose.” “sid, A person may be excused by the court from serving on the jury when for any reason his interests or those of the public wili be ma- Verlally injured by bis attendance, * * or where bis own health, or the death or sickness of amember of his famliy requires bis ab- sence.” Tbe complaintin regard to “profes- stonal jurors” has been not as to the drawn jurors, none of Whom could serve more than one term in every two years, but in ard to the jurors summoned by the marshal to till vacancles, for frequently a8 many as one-third of those drawn as jurors are excused and their places filled by jurors selected eluher by the court or marshal, and summoned to fill vacan- cles. The clerk of the court has no power to exercise discretion in the matier, 101s i's busi- ness to draw ballots from a box aud record a list of the names of them, and he has always done so in the presence of as many reporters of the press as chose to be present, and to take down the names as they were drawn trom the box aud called out. Tne difficulty as to men who make a business of jury serving comes on later, after the court 1s open and part of the drawa jurors excused. —_e—_. The Courts.

He said to me, ‘You can have twenty times that amount Mf you will vote against Roscoe Conkling,’ He sald that my coming from Oneida county and voting against bim (Conkling) would have great influence. I told him he could not par- chase my vote. He told me I would be well taken care of; that he expected to have a place in the custom-rouse, A(terwards he met me, and egrin urged me to desert Mr. Conkling. i told him he could not buy me.

Training with brain work Is what will bring success. Your work cannot extemporize success. It must be wrought ul with patience and work, and I know of none which have more successful advantages Unan you. The world isopen to you. I naval service does not bring you success, then you are lazy or hopelessly incompetent.
