In which Gen, Marmaduke was concerned. He went over to see the panoramic view of the buttle of Sliiloh which is ;>elng exhib­ ited trfere.and was greatly entertained by the strikingly realistic view that was spread out before him. > As the Colonel of a regiment of confederate troops lie had taken an active and memorable part In the great battle, and he could easily discover 01 the broad canvas, the t'aaiiiiar locali­ ties., He was particularly interested in one where his command had met a galling and overw lie lining fire from the division of the Federal Gen. Pren> tiM, who was afterwards captured with- 2.000 men by the Confederates. Marma­ duke was closely scanning the ground where he and his men were twice re­ pulsed by Prentiss, when some one at bis elbow said, MAre you not/General Marmakuke?" 4*I am," was the reply. "You were in the battle of Shi job?" "I was, and I had a devilish hot time of it right along there,' ' pointing to the spot referred to. "Gen.

About 3 o'clock In the morning of rlie 5th, while jn pursuit of the et.emy, one of those temporary halts, morn trying than the swinging march, occurred.

Suddenly I felt that a warm blanket was being wrapped about me. I wa- sufflclently awake to enjoy the co nfort It brought.

The unexpected and sudden death of •-"< Vice President Hendrfcks baa plunged fhe city in gloom, and men of all ties forgetting his shortcomings remember and speak only of his good? ness and honesty and unvaried integrl- ty. The Public Buildings are alt j heavily draped in mourning, the iecor* » ations being more elaborate than those for the late Ex-President L\ S. Grant. £ The death of the Vice President bag ' had the effect to invite the attention v of all parties to the question of tho Presidential succession, and it seemc * clear that one of, the first acts of tb# new Congress wiil be to pass a law governing this subject.' Many scheme# ; are proposed but the one receiving th$ most favbr appears to be that proposed! J Tby Senator Hoar, of Massachusetts^ which passed th« Senate at its la<>| " " " i o n .

This plan! received the almo«t tin ant* mous support of both parties in the * Senate, bnt was defeated In the Hous- by the introduction in that body of substitutes known as the Eaton bill. One of the objectionable features o this bill provided for a special election -if the unexpired term was more than one year, and under its operation two elections for President might be had in one year. 0 The fact Is that the Presidential term should be extended to six years and a second terra fori hidden, and anr bill that provides der any circumstances for an election ^ more frequently should be defeated.

The only other office of importance is that of Doorkeeper, fc candidates, viz.: Mr. Samnel Donelson, of Tennessee, and (MMI, Jaang li. Coil, of Connecticut. This fight will,be an interesting one, as showing the disposition of the Dem­ ocratic party towards the eastern Democrats and Federal Soldier ele« ment. The election of Mr. Donaldson would give three of five elective officer# to the south and not one of the five a Federal Soldier, while It would a>60 concentrate ihese offices about thet Central States or in the group of States! bordering on the Ohio and Mississippi a out their confluence^ General Colt was a gallant soldier who entered the service as a private and reached the rank of Brigadier-General^in the late unpleasantness, and bears on his person honorable scars in defense of the Union of the States.
