He was going to call at the White House, and just before the door was reached one of the horses in his carriage became frightened little and promised mischief. the carriage The Doctor’s son was in with him, and he instantly had it stopped and proceeded to lift done, the little but fellow out. This was safely just as he was about to step out him self, the horse thrown made violently a plunge forward, and the Doctor was striking his face against a post near bruising by, with the result of cutting and it painfully, but with no serious results. By the way, I omitted to mention here¬ tofore that General Toombs was also the victim of a severe fall while here last. As he other was walking the from one room to the of two he occu¬ pied at the National, he tripped and fell across the doorway, striking his face on a chair, cutting and bruising it pretty badly, and almost closing one eye, which, however, fortunately for him, was the blind one. ;He was forced to wear a green abade over it for sev¬ eral days, and made his argument in the Supreme Court in the railroad tax ^ases with that very unbecoming arti¬ cle on.” ^ The Day After New Year’s. *r~There were over seventy cases of drunkenness at the Jefferson Market Police Court on Thursday, the 2d inst., the majority of consideration which Judge Flammer discharged in that the day before was New Year’s Day. Sixty seven prisoner# ware disposed Market. of by Justice Kilbreth at Essex The appearance of many of the ac¬ cused persons was a marked contrast to that of the ordinary class of intoxicated or disorderly prisoners mechanics arraigned at the baf.

A novel and interesting case has ;entleman, while travelling by rail in hs native country, in 1876, lost hi# portmanteau, containing $500,000 in bonds of various nations, among which were $5,000 in United States 6 per cent, coupon bonds. Some time ago the police of Scotland arrested two men and one woman upon suspicion of having stolen the portmanteau. Upon theft being arraigned they confessed the and related a singular story about the disposition of the property. They read, ex¬ plained that, not being able to they were not aware of the value of the papers, and fearing to retain them they were burned. A relative of the. Scotch¬ man, residing in this country, now comes forward with an application for the issue of duplicates for the bonds stolen, a full description of which is given. Similar applications to Euro¬ pean Governments, whose bonds w«re among those alleged to have been burned, have the been records granted. of the A Scotch tran¬ script from forth these and court? sets facts attests the respectability of the gentleman who lost the bonds. The First thorough Comptroller intimated that if, upon a ex¬ amination, the facts are found to be as Should stated, he will approve the application. issued they will the be duplicates deposited be in with have to trust the United States Treasurer in order to secure the government against loss. When those particular bonds are called for redemption the amount will be paid tbe owner, and in the meantime he can regularly draw the interest. The Treasury Accounts. The Senate committee appointed to investigate the method of treasury bookkeeping, of which Senator Davis, of West Yirgina, is chairman, has taken a considerable amount of testimony among employees in the Treasury De¬ partment and others. To-day Senator Davis obtained an order from the Senate for the printing of this testi¬ mony. The testimony is regarded as private by members officially of the communicated committee, and will not be by them in advance of the formal re¬ port of the committee to the Senate, It is learned, however, at the Treasury Department taken that the of testimony which and has been is importance, entirely sustains the assertions several made by Senator Davis in his speeches on the method and manner of treasury istration. bookkeeping The during the Grant understood admin testimony is to show that between two and three thousand alterations, erasures, inter¬ lineations, &c., were made on the books of the Treasury and during principally the Grant ad¬ ministration, if not wholly during the period that Mr. Boutwell was Secretary of the Treasu¬ ry. It has been proved that Mr. Allison, when register of the treasury, refused to force balances on the books of his office, until directed by Secretary Boutwell in writing to make certain entries. Items reaching to as high a figure as $6,000,000 have been found on one set of books, when they -did not appear on another similar set. What¬ ever work has been accomplished by the committee has been through great tribulation, apparently, as one or more of the Republican members have never appeared desirous and to it have has sessions been of the committee, very hard to get them together. THE OHIO GOVERNMENT. A friend of Senator Thurman in a position to know says that it is not cer* tain but that Mr. Thurman *will be after compelled ail.— to Washington run for Governor Correspondent of Ohio, to Baltimore Sun. Ex-Secretary Usher says that he once spoke to Mr. Lincoln on the danger of assassination. “Lincoln was too care¬ less,” he adds. “He would go out of his house at night and walk over to the War Department, where Staunton was receiving said dispatches, unattended. I to him :. “Lincoln, you have uo business to expose yourself in this way. It is known that you go out at mid¬ night and return here sometimes at 2 o'clock in the morning from the War Department. It would be very easy to kill you.’ The President replied that if anybody desired to assassinate him he did not suppose any amount of caie would save him.” Medicines* DR.
