gh bu] WASHINGTON. Ben Wade and the St. Domingo Buggists. A Hitch Among’ the Com- missioners. The Prospects of Shellabarger’s Ku Kiox Bill in the House. ‘The Treasary Programme for April. WasHinertox, April 2, 1871, The St. Domingo Commission and ‘Their ite- Psrt—A Broil Between Ben Wade and the Bugaists, ‘The broils and contentions, growing out of the St. Domingo question, in the Senate have, it appears, been temporarily trausterred to the mem- bers of the St Domingo Commission, and, after all, it seems doubtiul if they will be able to agree upon a report, Hefore arriving here old Ben Wade prepared a document which he intended should be the report of the Com- mission. His brotier Commissioners, however, re- Tused to sign it because they wanted to add some re- Marks on the scien tile aspect of the expedition. “Al right,” said Old Ben; “out you had betier tell @ plain story, so that people can understand you.” Pro‘essor White and Dr. Howe were not in we habit of dealing with the peopie, and 80 they could not sce we force of Ola Ben's remark. Wade had an idea that when Howe and White reached Washington, and got in the viciuity of the Congressional Library, they would stretch out the report uil “the crack of Qoom.” He was right. The Cormoussion arrived a Week ago with the report prepared, and yet it Ras not been submitied to the President, and i will not be sent to Congress to-morrow, as ‘Was generally expectea, Professor White and Dr. Howe are alune responsible for the delay. Had old Ben Wade had his way tne report would have been submitted to the President just Tvesday; but these “learned Thebans” woud not put their names w auything that did not’ staad a chance of gang down to posterity em aimed ‘With their fame as the scholars aud explorers of the age. goes that if he had not been chairman of the com- mittee Howe anu Wile would probabiy have spent the remainaer of tieir lives ia bag nanting on the the island of St. Domingo. Wade believes am delivering “a plain, unvarnished tale,” and in keeping within the limits of the resolution under Which the Commission was appointed. Here 1s where he differs with White and Howe, They want Wo exhibit sume learning, some knowledge of his- tory and research in the report. A few days ago ‘Wade submitted bis report to these gentlemen tor their revision aud approval. Jt has taken them mearly a week to uaderstand Wade's plain English. ‘They now propose to add some learned disquisitions upon the early discovery of the island, the char- acter of its population, its history for the last two or three hunared years, its mineral Tesources, its. productions, us climate and @ general essay on the policy of annexa- Gon. To all tas old Pen says, “No, you dont.” Ben thinks that the more White and Howe write for the purpose of adding to the report the more dificuitit will be for the people to understand it, It is probable that the President will have to step in and settle the liitle misunderstanding between nis Commissioners before any report will be made. The Shellabarger Bili—Doudts of Its Passage. The pill to enforce the fourieenth amendment to ‘the constitution and for other purposes, cannot, it fs thought, pass the House in its present form. Several of the republicans bave deciared in their Speeches the necessity of amendments which they ‘will offer at the proper ime. Representative Willard has prepared a substitute for the pending measure with a view to harmonize the views of his republl- can fnepds. The democrats remain solid against the vill, with a few accessions from the ether party. 4 pumber of other republicans are opposed to all | Gegisiation on the Ka Klux sulyject at pre- sent, believing the laws already give the Preadent ample power in the premises; but they are willing to vote for & moderate bill, because the failure to pass one might be con- sidered by their opponents as an evidence of weak- ness, especially as the President bas asked for ad- ditional iegisiauion, and besides such fallure would not only damage the party, but seemingly afford encouragement to the pulawiul com. binations, The House will meet at eleven o'clock to-morrow, one hour earher than ‘wsual. Representative Shellabarger, who has charge of the bili will endeavor to close the general Gebate on that day, but allow time for offering and explaining amendments. 1t 1s tor the majority of the House, however, to determine the course of proceed. mg. 11 is supposed by some republicans that a bill ‘will be sent by the House to the Senate before or by ‘Wednesday, but of this there is no certaimty. The Treasury Programme. The programme for this month for the sale of gold and purchase of bonds is as follows, and in- structions have been sent accordingly to the Assist- ant Treasurer at New York:—To sell two millions of gold on each Wednesday, and to purchase three Millions of bonds op the frst and third Thursdays, and two millions en the seeond aud fourth ‘Thursdays. Senator Warner nnd the Alabama College Scrip. The widely published story relative to the Ala- Dama College scrip and Senator Warner’s connec- tion therewith ts declared by that gentleman to be utterly false and that it had its origin in malice. So far from collusion with Governor Smith in order to depreciate the scrip for personal advan- fage, he sought the passage of a law by the Alabama Legislature taking the control of the scrip out ef the hands of tue Governor and fixing @ limit of seventy-five cents per acre, below wilich it should not be sold; and he also procurred to be Teported from the United States Senate Committee on Public Lands, of which he was a member, an amendment to a pending bill providing that no State should hereafter sell its scrip at less than seventy- five cents per acre; and he suggested to Secretery ox that the scrip be not sent until legally applied for by the authorities of Alabama, in order that the foregoing protecting legislation might be haa. ‘The Centennial Exhibition at Philadelphia. In accordance with an invitation, 2 committee appointed by the Legisiature of Virginia to concer wiw the authorities of Philadelphia as to the pro- posed internationa) exhibition there on the hun- @redta anniversary of Independence Day, arrived here to-night en route to that city. f@ accompanied by Messrs. Handy, Miltse, Gilman and Cowardin, of the Richmond press. Whe Voting Places of the Patent Office Clerks. The new Commissioner of Patents, Mr. Leggett, has addressed 4 leiter to the clerk and employés in hs office, requesting them to inform him, with par- ticalarity, of their respective residences and where they last voted. The letter says the lady clerks will not, of course, be expected to make any reply as to voting. German Peace Celebration. The Germans of this District will, on che 10th tnst., have a grand peace celebration at the Washington Schuetzen Park, for which extensive arrangements have been made. Life-Saving Stations on Const. the Long On the 4th of March last Mr. Reeves, member of Congress from the First district of New York, tutro- duced a bil) for reference to the Committee on Com- merce on the subject of the life-saving stations on Long Island coast, The bill authorizes the Secre- tary of the Treasury to sell the present houses at the various life-saving stations on the coast of Long Isiand, and in heu of them to have constructed upon suitable sites, at distances not exceeding three miles between avy two of such sites, substantial two-story brick buildings, amply sapphed with all the apparatus for saving lie, she wii dayiien te Ben Wade ts a practical man, and the story | The commiitee Island NEW YORK HERALD, MONDAY, APRIL 3, 1871.—TRIPLE SHEET, Long Island coast into two districts and provides for the employment of superintendents, keepers and crews, each keeper to be a practical surfman, ac- quainted with the management of boats in the sea- surf, It provides a eystem of salaries and rewaras for the services rendered in assisting vessels in dis- tress and in saving lives. There shall be a public competitive examination and trial of all the ap- Daratus for saving hfe, and a board of competent oMcers of the revenue marine ser- vice shall recommend such as,they may think pest for adoption for use at the stations, The bili is to go into effect immediately after its passage. The reason Mr. Reeves did not present the bill sooner than March 4 was that he became satisfied there was no likelihood of obtaining action upon it during the last session, and he therefore held it over in order to get all the information bearing upon the subject ‘which was within his reach. It is believed to em. body several important improvements upon the pre- sent system, or, rather, lack of system, and to pro- | vide for the adoption of new or !mproved appara- tus, &c. The HERALD has recently devoted much space to descriptions of the condiuon of things on the coast of New Jersey. It ts probable (almost cer- tain) that that coast needs reorganization as much Long Isiand and that provisions similar to those in this bill would be advantageous there, THE COAL ENBARGO. Governor Geary to Lnterfere=The Railway Conspirators to be Ferced by Law to Re- duce Their Tolls to the Charter Rates—The Roads to be Seized by the State Otherwiae. PHILADELPHIA, April 2, 1871. ‘The Legislative Coal Investigating Committee will | make their final report on Tuesday next. It is well understood that the report will be adverse to the | immers m every particular, In that-case Governor Geary will issue a writ of | quo warrante compelling the railroads to reduce | their toll charges to the rates allowed by their | charters. | Should they disobey the writ the Commonwealth | will take possession of the Reading, Lehigh Valley | and other roads that persist m keeping up their | tolls and Keep possession thereuf and run them by | State authority. AFFAIRS IN ALSANY. Crime in High Life—Forgers Among the Jeunesse Doree of the Capital—Counterfeit Curvency Ahoat, ALBANY, April 2, 1871. Henry Bronk, a@ young man moving in very re- spectable society, Was arrested on Saturday evening charged with forging @ check on the National Ex- | Change Bank for $660, The forgery was detected | before payment was made. To-day he confessed the ‘ime and implicated Theodore F, Lansing, also re- spectably connected, in the crime, Lansing started overland for California on Satur- | day might, but was arrested on a telegram at Buifaio to-day. The name of James A. Gray & Co. was forged on | the check, | The ctty ts flooded with bills on the Baxter Bank | of Rutland, which were thought genuine until to- | day, when experts pronounced them forgeries. | Many thousand dollars of them are In circulation here. The counterfeit is the best ever issued and Well calculated to deceive. THE GERMANS AND RR. TWEED, A meeting of the German representatives from the | various wards of the Fourth Senatorial district was | neld on Saturday evening last at the National Gar- den, No. 104 Bowery, The object of the meeting | was to organize a German William M. Tweed Asso- | ctaton in each ward of the district. The represen- | 1atives were most cordial aud unanimous in a deter- mination to retain Mr. Tweed in his present posi- ion as Senator of the district. ‘The district was represented by the following gen- tiement, viz.:—First ward, Nicholas Muller; Second ward, John Kunz; Third ward, John H. Wellbrock; Fourth ward, Christian Schinitt; Fifth ward, Claus Pasknafer; Sixth ward, Jaceb Koehler; Seventh ward, Charles ¥isher; Thirteenth ward, Jacob See- bacher; Fourteenth ward, Henry Peters, The follow gentlemen were upanimonsly elected as oillce Deputy Sheriff Jacob Seevacher, presi- | dent;*Nicholas Miller, treasurer; Curistian Schmitt, secretary. , It was resolved that the name of the organiza- tion shall be the “Fourth Senatorial District German William M. Tweed Central Association; and that each ward club be allowed a delegation of ten in number to represent them in the Central Association, A series of resolutions was read, expressive ot the contidence entertained vy the German residents of the district in Senator Tweed’s ability and their de- — to re-elect him to the position he now olds. . INTERNAL REVENUE AFFAIRS. The change recently made by the Commissioner of Internal Revenue, consolidating the collection dis- tricts in this city and Brooklyn, went into effect on Saturday. For a week past Messrs, Joseph E. 8. | Cony and Klotz, connected with the department in Washington, have been in this city to supervice the transfer of government property from the old to the new collectors. The First district embraces now the counties of Kings, Queens, Suffolk and Rich- mond, formerly tue First, Secona and Third dis- tricts. The collector is Mr. Vreeland. The new Second district comprises the old Fourth and Sixth, with Mr. Treadwell a3 collector. The new ‘Third consists of the old Fifth and Seventh districts, of whica Mr. Joun McHarg is the present collector. The Eighth and Ninch districts remain as before. William Laimbeer, Jr., late collector of the Eigath district, transferred his trust to his successor, Mr. Charles R. Costar, late of the Sixth district, who has for his deputies Messrs, Nelson Thayer and Sydney Yeaman. Colonel Laimbeer was evidently bapyy. at being whle to get_ md of an office which he neither | needed pecuniariy nor solicited politically. Mr. William A. Darling remains collector of the Ninth collection districe, DANGEROUS DBOLEY, 5 A Would-be Murderer—Looking for Somebody to Kill. Pat Dooley, @ notorious character, eighteen years | Of age, residing at No, 427 East Sixteenth street, was | found by an oficer of the Eighteenth precinct, last nighi, in the street flourishing a large butcner’s kuife over his head, and threatening to commit har- kari upon any and all persons who might approach | him. He was taken to the station house and found to be suffering from a stab wound in the left thigh, which he lad received during a fight with | Dennis Hazel. The latter made his escape and has | noi yet been arrested. Dooley, who was detained tu tle station house, is the same person who fired | two shots from @ revolver at his father in July last. He will be arraigned at Essex Market this morning. ~~ FESTIVE GATHERINGS, This evening the Oriental Club of this city will give their first anniversary calico reception at the cinb’s rooms, East Broadway.

ACCIOCNTAL SHOJT.NG. Carelessness With Firearms and Probable Fatal Result. Information was received by Coroner Young yes- terday morning that John Chisholm, twenty-eight yearsof age, and a native of Scotland, was lying in an extremely critical condition at 345 West Seven- teenth street, {rom the effects of a pistol shot wound of the abdomen. Late the night previous William H.

THE LAST DAYS’ WORK. Closing the Canvass and Rolling Up the Sleeves for the Fight. Boastings and Concessions on Both Sides— The Radicals Awfuily A(raid of Ba Weather and Bill Tweed. HarrrorD, April 1, 1871. ‘This is the last skirmishing day before the grand battle at the polls on Monday. The politicians in every town and village, from the borders uf Massa- chusetts to tne Sound, are winding up the labors of the canvass; burnishing their small arms for the fight, you can almost fancy the rumbie of the neavy guns as they are being brought up for action. THE TRUMPET ORATORS, native and carpet-baggers, are making what Ten- nyson calis their last ‘‘shaitering” to-night all over the State. II they are to be believed there is not a single honest man left in Conueeticut; not a Public man, at least, with a shred of character that he could pledge m a pawn ofice. To-morrow, being the holy Sabbath, it is to be hoped that they will go to church, say their prayers, and devoutly ask pardon for ail the naughty things they have been saymg of their neighbors for the past week. I fear that the prayers of the wicked wu avail not. Whey will find few stump orators around the throne of grace to plead for them that their supplications may be heard. In- deed, after looking into a prayer book and carefully scruunising the LITANY OF SAINTS, I have failed to discover the name of @ solitary poli- tician in the calendar, It takes so many years to purge, purity and sanctify a politician that the oldest of them all—the father of them all—who, Speaking from “the stump’? ofa tree in Paradise, entwined our first, most beloved mother a) around with his shiny eloquence, 13 not yet canonized, ex- cept im Wall street. But dropping trom FIGURES OF RHETORIC to the figures on the canvasser's books, there is going to be a very tight contest at the polls on Mon- day, and I see no reason to change any of the facts 1 have already communicated. The vote of the whole State cast last year was $7,413, out of which Governor English had a majority of 843. ‘Ihe vote wis year will probably reach 90,000, or more, with an 1n- creased majority for English—tne democrats say 1,500; the more modest republicans admit a majo- rity, but decline to accept any advance. Three democratic Congressmen may be counted in as among the probabiliues, but the Second and Fourth districts may be considered safe for Kendrick and W. H. Barnum. ‘tne republican candidate (Mr. Strong) m the First district (Hartford and Tol- Jand counties), if elected, will lose a good deal on his majority of two years ago. He will lose 250 in Tolland, where he 1s very unpopular, but may gain in ihe towns of Hartford and New sritain. This 13 all that bis triends claim for him, Starkweather’s majority 10 the Third district will be pulled down considerably owing to Wwe dissen- sions in the party there. ‘There are three things of which the radical leaders stand in great terror—the weather, the nostility of the party to Grant’s adiuinisiration, and te tempt- ing greenbacks of BOSS TWEED. About the latter, which they say are flooding the “spicy’’ State, the rank and file may bot be so much distressed, 1 have met many who complain that they have noc seen any of them yet The alleged despatch from Governor English wo Tweed, at Albany, has not done mach good to the publishers, although it Was slyly inserted in the weekly edition of the Courant and circulated through the country a day in advance of its publ lon in the daily issue yes- terday. 1t takes @ whole vote to make any fair show for the radicals, and if it should storm on Monday as itis storming while I write there will be a great Taliing of The democrats, being clotned in brass and adamant, don't care astraw for the weather, The Day of Rest Be‘ore the Battle—Impor- taace o: the Coutest. HagtrorD, April 2, 1871, Although there are no immediate State issues in- voived in the Connecucut election beyond the choice of a Governor, and, in fact, no local issues which are more of a personal than a political character in the Various towns, yet the people are remarkably alive tothe importance of to merrow’s doings. People of both parties regard this election as one of na- tional importance, having @ serious bearing upon the future of the national government and national weal involved in the next Presidential elec- tion. In the present crisis through which the ad- ministration 1s passing, in the travail brought upon the President by grave disaffection in the party which set him up as their ieader, in the manifest in- competence which he has exbibited to carry out either the wishes of the party leaders or the general good of the country, in a selfish policy unparalleled inthe Presivential chair, a nepotism not equalled since the days of the Cwsarg—in all this the people of Connecticut, like the people throughout the entire country, see the gravity of the duty they have to perform to-morrow. As the second New England State whose voice is ‘to be heard in the spring elections, there seems to be @ determination that it will echo the tones which New Hampsiilre has already sent forti. it is not Connecticut speaking for Connecticut alone, but for the whole nation. It is a mistake to suppose that there Is any indifference bere among the voters as to the election; and you may rely upon it that if there is not a full vote of the republican party cast to- morrow it is because of the weather—which Is just now Most miserable—not because men are unwill- ing to sacrifice the luxury of dry feet for “the tree- man’s right and the freeman’s might” of the iran- chise, so much as it is @ determination either to vole the democratic ticket Or not vote at all. For this reason I think that those who caiculate on a vote of 90,000 or 100,000 will be mistaken. In the breaking dewn of radical majorities at ail points, the election of one or two Congressmen, and in & decided gain in the State Senate and Assembly, the Tesuit Of to-morrow’s election May be predicted as a democratic victory to come, and that, too, without any Ku Klux tvasion of “repeaters? (rom Man- hattan Istand upon the sacred nutineg soil, about which 30 mucu hue and cry is raised by the radical press, but which intelligent republicans, I can assare you, are not at all alarmed abont. In iact, with the strongest registry law now in operation, it is hard to see how tie importation Ol votes 18 possible. However, sensible men here believe that no such thing will be tried. Connecticut will stand or fall by her own honest vote. On Tuesday morning there will be heard rooster’s clarion voice echoing from Alaska to St. Domingo, but whether it wiil pe the crowing of the “ancient fowl” that welcometh the election of An- drew Jackson, or that of the modern bird of sable plumage—oue of the regular “black Spanish” breed, Who procluuned the success of poor Abe Lincoln— must be left for to-morrow w decide, Both birds are in rehearsal under competent masters, and, like rival tenors, they are scowling fearfully at each other. The machinery of the canvass is at rest. The steam was shut off at midnight, when the cranks and wheels of political tricking frauds, falsehoods and uncharitabieuess come to a dead stop, ‘To-day a quiet New England Sabbath, ciad in her white “robes of snow,” weighs supreme over tie passions of men and the turmolis of politics. At sunrise tie battalions will advance to the polis; sturdy old farm- ets will hitch up their horses for many a long jour- ney over snowy roads, eager to cast votes for “somebody” and the right. Some of them dazzied by the Jewell on one ticket, and others, remember- ing their Anglo-Saxon fathers, ready to stand by the English on the other ticket. 1 fancy, however, that the old Andrew Jackson rooster is ahead, clear- ing lis voice for the announcemeut by tie dawning of the day upon & democratic victory in Connecucut, THE WEATHER YESTERDAY, The following record Will show the changes in the temperature for the past twenty-four hours in com- parison with the corresponding day of last year, as indicated by the thermometer at Hudput’s Phar. macy, HERALD Buliding, corner of Anu street:— 1870, 1871. 1870, 1871, 49 38 aP. 51 49 aq ao oF 52 62 62 40 9 47 48 12 M 60 46° «12P.M. 46 46 Average temperatare yesterday, 4 Average temperature for corresponding date last year... “THE WESTCHESTER BURGLARY.” To THe Epitor OF THE HeraLy:— In the HERALD of the 26th ult. there appeared an arucle charging Titus Barker with forcible entrance into my house, 137th street, Wilton. 1 have to state, at the request of the parents of Titus Barker, that there was no charge made by me ayainst said Titus Barker, neither have | any positive knowledge of his participation im the erime.

Yhis, in teelf, will be full value for the money paid, no popular entertainment sustained by first class talent ever being approachable for less than $1. To each ticket a Coupon will be annexed, the holder of which wilf be entitled to one chance in the distribution of prizes, a schedule of which appears beiow. On presenting their Cou pons to the manager in charge of the wheel, the holders will be permitted to draw their own tickets, and will thus ascere | | | | |. tain, without deiay, the luck that fortune has had in store for them, Ten collars will be the approximate value of the smallest prize. sort Among the advantages comprised in this aystem of draw. ing {a that ittakes place immediately, upon the purchasers obtaining their tickets and presenting the coupons to the manager atthe whee.
