Amos Webster, Register of Wills, and the Executive Mansion furnishes all the facts in the case up to the proceedings which took place | ao in the Probate Court, as printed in ‘HE STaR last evening. Onthe 30th ult., Mr. O. L. Praden, secretary to the President, wrote to Col. Webster saying :—“I am directed by the President to say that he desires ag tion.” Col. Webster replied on 1st instant, addressing the President as follows : “T have the honor to acknowledge the receipt of your note of yesterday, requesting my resig- nation. President Hayes took similar action during his administration. I beg leave to sub- mit herewith my reply to him on that occasion, together with a letter of endorsement from the Judiciary of the District, and a brief prepared b; a member of the bar, who is the author of a boo! on testamentary law, a standard work in this District. I might also refer to a letter from Mr. Justice Miller, of the Supreme Court of the United States, on file at the Executive Mansion, | and to inform your Excellency that your prede- cessor decided that my appointment was excep- | tional and not subject to the ordinary law of rotation in office. e term of this office was intended by the framers of the law to be as per- manent as that of the judiciary. Hoping it will be your pleasure to consider the papers submit- ted before final action is taken, and that this may prove a satisfactory answer to your request, 1am, sir, very respectfully.” Accompanying the letter is the statement re- ferred to, dated July 20, 1880, and addressed to Presideut Hayes, to the effect that the appoint- ment to the office is provided for by section 92 of the United States Revised Statutes; that no time is mentioned for the duration of the term of office; and that the provision of the constitu- tion of Maryland, still in force respecting this | oifice, is to that the register of wills shall hold his cominission during good behavoir, “remov- able only for misbehayoir on conviction in a | court in law.” “It will be observed,” says Colonel Webster, “that since the creation of the offiice in 1801 there have been but seven registers before my- self, all residents of the District of Columbia, four of whom died in office and two resizned, none having been removed to create a vacancy in the office. The records of the office show that for eighty years it has been held by six men confirmed by the Senate besides myself. Relying upon this series of precedents [have felt that while my administration of the office was not criticised, but, on the contrary met the commendation of the bar and public of this District, I could confidently depend upon the continuance of this long-established course with reference to the office. The office is not lucrative, the business of this branch of the Su- preme Court of the District of Columbia being small and very little litigation carried on therei ‘The fees were iixed in 1801 and 1824, when money was more valuable than at present. It requires unremitting attention and hard work to transact the public business and make more than a living out of it for the support of a family. Clerks and expenses of the office must be paid by the Regis- ter.” He further says he had resigned his com- mission in the regular army with the conviction that he was giving up a life position to enter upon another equally permanent. July Ist, the date of Col. Webster's letter to the President, the private secretary of the latter called in person upon Col. Webster and stated that he had been requested _ by the President to demand his (Webster's) resignation. Col. Web- ster not complying, nothing further was done in the matter until the appointment of Mr. Ramsdell was announced and the order of sus- pension placed in the hands of Col. Webster yes- | terday. - Out of Door Sports. THE SATURDAY EVENING BOAT RACES ON THE 3 POTOMAC. There will be no racing on the Potomac this evening.

Two colored preachers attended the prisoners on the scaffold, and nearly two hours were taken up with singing and praying. Several colored women made themselves conspicuous by shout- ing, while several others fainted, owing to the extreme heat. The trap-doors, which were both worked with one lever, fell at the same instant. Green died in 11 minutes, but Hardin’s pulse beat tor 18 minutes after the drop fell. This was the first judicial hanging that ever took place in Lee county.

So geo Suit Against the Potomac Terra Cotta Co. DECISION IN FAVOR OF THE COMPANY. The suit of E. C. Dean against the Potomac | Terra Cotta company was, after being fully ar- gued by L.,G. Hine for plaintiff and Frank T. Browning for defendant, decided in favor of the company. The prayer for an injunction and the appointment of a receiver to take charge of the affairs of the company was overruled and the case dismissed. This case has attracted considerable attention, not only on account of the charges made against the officers of the company, but also on account of the interest felt by the community for the success of an important manufacturing eater- prise of the District. It is gratifying te the friends of the officers of the eompany to know that they have been fully vindicated agatnst the charges which have beer made against them, and it matter of interest to the public that the company will immediatety commence to re- build their works, which were destroyed by fire in December, 1879, adding to their former’ pro- ducts new branches of terra cotta work.

Much of the discharge passes backward into the throat or collects a8 a tough, viscid phlegm be- hind and above the soft palate, in the passage be- tween the throat and head, creating a constant and almost irresistible desire to obtain relief by “bawking,.” a practice characteristic to catarrh, and as embarrassing to the one affected as it is disagrecable to those around, Often the phlegm is 80 tenacious that the most persistent and ex- haustive efforts fail to dislodge it until some food or stimulant is swallowed. Again, the offensive matter deposits ftsclf in the nasal cavities in the shape of dry hard crusts, which in some cases accumulate to such an ex> tent as to form a regular plug, obstructing breathing and producing serious discomfort, This condition is indicative of ulceration, which in time may destroy the bony structure of the nose and produce its subsequent flattening.
