Monday, Feb. 7,1881. 
Great preparations are being made In Washing¬ 
ton for the Inauguration ceremonies. The money 
necessary for carrying out the plans of the Inaug¬ 
ural committee has nearly all been subscribed. 
The new National Museum, In which the ball is 
to be given, Is a building of one room but little les 9 
In size man the National Capitol, covering 3% 
acres of ground. A fine dressed-plne flooring Is 
now being laid throughout, the hall, which will be 
waxed. The limit of the number of tickets of ad¬ 
mission 8 , 000 —provides for about six square feet 
for each person, which will prevent the hail from be¬ 
ing oveicrowded as Is generally the case. A band 
of iso musicians from the East has already been 
contracted for. In view of the expense attending 
the preparations no complimentary tickets will be 
Issued, excepting to President-elect Garfield and 
family. The work on the decoration of Penn¬ 
sylvania avenue will he commenced at once, 
$ 10,000 having been given for that purpose. 
The escort of the Presidentelect will consist of 
about 2 , 001 ) militia and 14 companies of regular 
troops and marines. Previous to the ball a recep- 
tlon will bs held In the museum building by Gene¬ 
ral and Mrs. Garfield, President and Mrs. Hayes 
and General Grant and Mrs. Grant. General Han¬ 
cock has also been Invited to take part In the re¬ 
ception, and it is thought, from assurances receiv¬ 
ed by the Committee, that he will accept. Gene¬ 
ral Sherman will b3 Grand Marshal of the parade, 
and will make tne presentation at the reception. 
Now, while our law makers at Washington are 
taking a moment’s respite from cabinet specula¬ 
tions, they are devoting their spare moments to a 
conslderaitou of who shall be Speaker of the next 
House Mr. Kasson. now Minister to Vienna, has 
been a prominent candidate; Mr. Robeson would 
like to bs consoled with the Speakership, but he is 
a'lemperance man: Mr. Burroughs, thecomle man 
from Michigan, would like to tickle the house from 
the Speaker’s chair; Mr. Kelley (not John) of 
Pennsylvania, would not object to the place, while 
Mr. Frye hardly knows which to aim for—the 
Speakership or a Senaiorshlp. If no one else will 
take theoirue under consideration, New York will 
humbly propose the name of Frank lllscock. 
In the Senate Mr. Wallace has Introduced a 
joint resolution proposing an amendment to the 
Constitution ot ihe i oir.ed States changing the 
mode or electing the President and Vice-President 
of tne United Slates. The bill dispenses with the 
Electoral college and provides lor an election by 
the people by secret ballot, by direct vote, In dis¬ 
tricts. Each State is to have as many districts as 
It has Senators and members In Congress, and 
each district to have one vote. The vote to be can¬ 
vassed by a state Board of Canvassers, consisting of 
the Governor, Chief .1 ustlco and Secretary of State, 
their returns to be made to the Speaker ot the 
House, and to be conclusive proof of the result. 
The votes are to ba counted by congress In joint 
convention, and a plurality vote to elect. 
A special committee of the senate has had under 
consideration a bill providing that the principal 
officers ot the executive departments may occupy 
seats on the iloor of the senate and House, witn 
the right to participate In debate on matters rela¬ 
ting to tne business of their respective depart¬ 
ments. and that either House may require then 
attend mce at its pleasure. 
A fire in Philadelphia recently destroyed the 
Beth Eden Church, Horticultural Hall and private 
residences Los3, $413,000, insurance, $00,000. 
Gov. Cornell, has been to Mentor, but his vlstt 
there, be says, had no political significance,but was 
simply o’ a social nature. Mr, Garfield, probably, 
had not the least suspicion a year ago that he had 
so many friends, wno were so extremely anxious 
for his welfare. 
The managers of the late pedestrian contest In 
this city, h iva pall the five men, entitled to a 
share In the proceeds. Hughes, the winner, re¬ 
ceived a ciieck for $ 4 , 220 , Albert, was made happy 
with $2 414, Vint got, $1,207, Krohno, $S04, and How¬ 
ard, $ 102 . 
It Is stated that several English bicyclists are to 
visit thlscouutry next Summer, for a ruu tnrougb 
the principal cities. Our masters of the wheel will 
doubtless extend them a cordial welcome. Bicy¬ 
cling is the coining sport, and next season Borne 
fine parade riding may be expected. 
The Sacramento Klver has this Winter 
reached tne highest point ever known, viz., 
feet, or one Incn higher than the flood of 1876, the 
water on the Golo side washing over the levees and 
cutting them out badly. Above Sacramenlo city 
the water poured over the levee through a break 
of 200 feet. A snort distance below the city there 
was another break of 10 O feet, aud below tUe city 
for eight miles the water poured over the levee, 
putting the whole country under water. The dam¬ 
age will amount to fully $1,000,000, principally to 
orchards and vineyards. 
Gentlemen interested In the reform or the pres¬ 
ent divorce laws met In Boston Monday afternoon 
and organized a New Eogland Divorce Reform 
League. Governor Long, Paul Uhadbourne, Pres¬ 
ident Woolsey of Yale, President Chamberlain of 
Bowdoin, Judge Jeremiah binith of Vermont, and 
other prominent gentlemen were selected as mem¬ 
bers ot the League.

Elisha Gray, the Inventor or the telephone, is 
said to be receiving an “ enormous revenue” from 
his Invention. As he Is a remarkably generous 
man, he finds no difficulty lu getting rid ot a good 
deal of It. He Is about to give a course of lectures 
on dynamic electricity at Oberfin, Ohio,

At a late meeting of the World’s Fair Exec¬ 
utive Committee an address to tne different 
States was presented urging prompt action in the 
various State Legislatures concerning proper rep¬ 
resentation at the Exhibition. 
It is hoped that a street of states, similar to the 
street of Nations In the main building at the Phil¬ 
adelphia Exhibition, may constitute an Imposing 
feature. A statement or the subscriptions to date 
will soon be made public, 
The death of J. Lewis Dlnan, D.D., Professor or 
nistory and Political Economy In Brown Univer¬ 
sity, Providence, R. I., Is announced. lie was born 
at Bristol, R. 1„ May 1 ,1831, graduated at Brown 
L nlverslty In 1851 and at Andover Seminary In I860, 
After several years of travel In Europe, and after 
having filled two pastorates In Massachusetts, he 
was elected Professor ot nistory and Political 
Economy In Brown University. He has taken high

The Joint convention of Senate and House of 
Representatives met on Wednesday last to count 
the electoral votes for President and Mce-presi¬ 
dent. The certificates of election were taken up, 
by States, in alphabetical order. TUe voting 
passed off quietly until Georgia was reached when 
Mr. Springer demanded that the certificate of that 
State be read in full. The vote of Georgia was 
cast on a day other than that fixed by law, where¬ 
fore, under the concurrent resolutions, this vote 
was not recorded until It was ascertained whether 
the counting or omitting to count Its vote woulc^ 
change the result or the election. The remaining 
certificates were read without Interruption and 
when the list was completed Senator Thurman 
who was one of the tellers made the following an¬ 
nouncement: “The tellers report that the whole 
number ot Electors appointed to vote for President 
of the United states was 363, of which a majority 
is 185. Were the votes of the Electors ror the 
Slate of Georgia, cast on the second Wednesday 
of December, 1880, being the 8th day or said month 
to be counted, the result would bs; For James A. 
Garfield, of the State of Ohio, for President of the 
United states, 214 votes; and lor Winfield s. Han¬ 
cock, of the State of Pennsylvania, for the Presi¬ 
dent ot the United States, t55 votes. If not counted 
the result would toe: For James A. Garfield for 
President of the United States, 214 votes; and for 
Winfield S. Hancock lor President of the United 
States, 144 votes. In either event James A. Gar¬ 
field has received a majority of the votes of the 
whole number of Electors appointed ” Senator 
Thurman then made a similar statement relative 
to the vote of vice president. Immediately fol¬ 
lowing Oils announcement the Vice-President 
made proclamation of the result and the conven¬ 
tion adjourned. 
The Pennsylvania Railroad company sent a let¬ 
ter to the Emigrant Commissioner at New York, 
stating that they will reduce the Immigrant pas¬ 
senger rates to Chicago to $3. This shows what a 
little competition will do. 
Mr. Blair has introduced In the Senate a Joint 
resolution proposing an amendment to the consti¬ 
tution, which was read. It prohibits, after the 
year 1900, the manufacture and sale anywhere

Tlie Etna Life Statement. 
We extract, from the coniine ms of the Hartford 
papers upon the .Etna Life Insurance Company’s 
annual statement, the following: 
The Courant says:—“The figures speak vol¬ 
umes of commendation for the excellent manage¬ 
ment. The year has assuredly been a prosperous 
one with the .Etna, and the showing or figures is 
sound proof that there Is no better company in 
tne country In which to Insure, such an institu¬ 
tion as this Is one tor wnich Hartford may be just¬ 
ly proud ” 
Tne Times saysThe stupendous business or 
the JUtuR Lire has been built up by the most en¬ 
ergetic but at ihe same time cautious methods, 
aud sound principles of finance arc the foundation 
tpon which lie colossal success lias rested ” 
The Post says:—•• The pastvear lias been a con¬ 
tinuation of the .Efua’s successful career With 
Its efficient management. It may reasonably be 
expected to continue the Increase of its large and 
prosperous business. The .Etna is unquestion¬ 
ably one of the strongest and best life insurance 
companies in existence. Its management from the 
outset has been eminently conservative, giving it 
a reputation that any company In ihe world might 
honestly feel proud of. successful as its past nas 
been, Its future carter will ever exceed the past in 
point or success.”

Harriet Beecher Stowe Is reported to have lost 
all the orange trees on her Florida plantation, 
amounting to about luo,ooo, by the late extreme 
cold. Doubtless this Is somewhat exaggerated. 
...The cotton-seed oil manufacture Is now 
the leading Industry of New Orleans, Its six mills 
employing 1,625 persons and producing $ 2 , 742,000 
worth of oil annually. There are nine mills In 
both Mississippi and Louisiana, eight in both Ten¬ 
nessee and Texas, four In Arkansas, two each In 
Missouri and Alabama, and one in Georgia. They 
all can crush 1.786 tons of seed dally. The 47 
mills In the whole country.only crush an eighth 
of the seed available for oil, their annual oil pro¬ 
duct being valued at about $ 0 ,000, 000 . Oll-cake is 
also a valuable product of these mills.Alba¬

The seeding of Fall wheat In South Russia was 
effected uuder generally favorable conditions, but 
the luxuriant growth ot the wheat plant and the 
want of snow caused some apprehension, but not, 
however, very serious.During July, August, 
September, October and November we exported of 
wheat, and flour calculated as wheat, 97,424,198 
bushels, against 103,951,899 bushels In tho Bame 
peilod last year.Reports of the Illinois De¬ 
partment or Agriculture, obtained from sou points 
In the State, show that the growing Winter wheat 
crop covers 3,049.63’ acres, agalust 8,790,0S0 acres 
In isso. it is believed that the crop, as a whole, is 
in excellent condition, and, from the present out¬ 
look, it will be a good fatr average at least, and 
perhaps will be better than the average. .. .. .The 
sorghum product In Minnesota last year was about 
50.000 pounds ot sugar and 50,000 gallons ot sirup, 
the former selling Id market at nfire cents a pound 
and the latter at 56 cents a gallon.
