In t hi K respect he litis had more experience in a nhort time tlinn any former Presi dent. The fortunate or unfortunate nominee, as the case may turn out, is Morrison P. Waite, of Toledo, Ohio, nnd lit the present time President of Ihe Ohio Constitutional Convention. The nomination when sent in to the Senate yesterday caused profound surprise, but it seems to eive pretty general satisfac tion. Mr. Waite is a son of the late Chief Justice Waite, ef Connecticut, and is fifty-eight years old. He grad uated at Yale College at twenty-two, and came to Toledo, where he read law and has since practiced, and is now regarded an one of the leading lawyers of that section of the State. In 18j0 he was elected to the Legislature, and served with distinction. In 1RC2 he was an un successful candidate for Congress, and in 1871 was appointed as one of the coun sel to Geneva. He is a conservative Republican, and not unobjectionable to - any party, perhaps, unless it should be discovered that at Bome time in his life he addressed Jefferson Davis a letter be ginning with a "Dear Sir." Unless something of this sort is found in the Confederate archives, he will probably be confirmed, though Morton is yet to hear from. Thus far the office of Chief Justice has been occupied by only six persons during the eighty-six years of the existence of the Supreme Court of ihe United States. Washington ap pointed Jay in 177S, who was then forty four years old, served eight years, and died at the age of eighty-four years; Kutledge, aged fifty-six, who served four years and died at the age of sixty, and Ellsworth, appointed when forty-four years of age, served five years, and died at the age of forty-nine. The elder Adams appointed Marshall, then forty six years of age, who served thirty-five " years and died at the age of eighty-one. Jackson appointed Taney, aged fifty nine years, who served twenty-eight years, and died at the age of eigbty seven years. Lincoln appointed Chase, then fifty-six years old, who served nine years, and died last year aged sixty five. The next Chief Justice will be the sev- f! ii lli in the line of succession. GUBEEHATOEIAL. Apropos to the approaching guberna tori) contest, which is already begin ning to claim some public attention, the Jackson Whig and Tribune of the 17th inst. contains a communication strongly favoring Colonel T. W. Avery as the People's candidate for Governor. We extract only the following: Twice was he elected to Congress from the Memphis district over two of the ablest and most popular and eloqnent gentlemen in this State. In Congress Ii e made an efficient, energetic and hon-e-:t representative of the people, whose interest he guarded with constant vigil ance. In every position to which he has been assigned, he lias proven himself worthy the trust. His nomination would heal all dissensions and insure a grand a ud harmonious victory. His adminis i i ml inn would do much to advance and i roinole the welfare and prosperity of the Stale and the good of our people. No man in West Tennessee would be more acceptable to the people of the Middle and Kastern Divisions. Let US then unite upon him. LetWestTennessee present a o!id column. Let every county speak out for Tom Avery, the People s i! andidate; and when the Convention assembles at Nashville to select the can didate, nominate him with a unanimous vote and he will be elected by an over whelming and triumphant majority. The Whig and Tribune says editori ally: . In this issue we publish ft letter, writ ten by a sagacious and well posted politician, which takes ground in favor of Col. Tom Avery as a suitable stand ard bearer for the Democratic party. Col. Avery has uniformly been success ful before the people, and should he con sent to the use of his name, he would develop considerable strength, especially in Went Tennessee, a larije portion ol which he once represented in Congress. Also our townsman, Gen. Campbell is already mentioned most favorably in connection wiih Gubernatorial honors, uud his claims have been favorably commented upon by the press. UiS anility, integrity and other high per sonal waits, all conspire to point bim out a very mnaoie person to te our nert Govenor. As yet, however, no line of action can bo definitely chalked out, and a premature discussion of the i bailees and claims of favorites may do miuti-:o frustrate their nomination. Harmony in our rauka is a primary condition to be secured. Candidate's inn always be had in abundance.

There is u grow ing feeling in the public mind that such a change would ! an effectual remedy for a vast amount of unnecessary ex Dense, corruption and bad manageniei The regular nrmy officers are, as a rule, high-toned, honorable men, who scorn to make weulth for themselves or friends by the processes which are so prevalent in the civil departments. A K kw paper called the Spy has been started at Morristown, East lennessee bv Dr. M. 8. Mahoney. It is Republi enn in politics, and is thought to be especially inimical to Roderick llaudora Butler, the present Congressman lrom iW Dwtrict. That celebrity seems likely to have a hard road to travel in the next race. The Jonesboro Herald mill Tribune has taken a decided stand already in favor of Judge Gillenwatera, Thk population of this country has increased about one-third since 131.0, and the wealth one-half, but the State and local taxes have increased from 9 -l.lKfi, 7 IG to about $:tO0,O00,O0O in the same time, not including taxes for local ira nro-enients. The Federal Government exacts $:!00,000,000 more, making in all aixhundred millions of taxes per annum or about 837 tons of gold coin! At the mumciDal election held in Knoxville lust Saturday Mr. Peter Staub, an old n'ld highly respected German citizen. waB elected Mayor. The Press and Ilerald says the administration of Mayor Staub will be the earnest, honest, practical and successful management of the municipal concerns of tins pro gressive city. Th New t'einbaatible. We stated, says Galignani's Messen ger, a short time ago, that a Belgian peasant had made the extraordinary dis covery tual eartn, coai aim uouu uiij.ru nn together, would burn as well and bet ter than any other combustible, and the fact has since then been provea Deyona doubt. The way in which he found thia nut is curious. He had been scrap ing the floor of his cellur with a shovel, m order to brine all the bits of coal ly ing about into a heap, which, mixed as it was with eartn ana otaer itnpuruiea, h nut into bis stove. To his astonish ment he found that this accidental com nmind burnt better instead of worse than he expected, and emitted much greater heat, lieiugan intelligent man, he endeavored to discover the cause, and found that a great deal of soda, probably the reranant of the last wash, lay about on the floor of the cellar, and thut some of it must have got into his heap. He then made a few experi ments, and at length improved his com pound sufficiently to render it practical. The publicity given in Belgium to this discovery caused trials to be made everywhere, and it has now been ascer tained that three parts of earth and one of coal dust, watered with a concen trated solution of soda, will burn well and emit great heat. Many Parisian papers talked of it, but only one, the Moniteur, went so far as to make the experiment at its printing office. A certain quantity of friable and- slightly sandy earth was mixed with the quan tum of coal dust prescribed; the two in gredients were well incorporated with each other, and then made into a paste with the solution above mentioned. The fireplace of one of the boilers had pre viously been lighted with coal, and the fire was kept up with shovelsful of the the mixture. The latter, in a few seo onds, was transformed into a dry brown crust, which soon after became red hot, and then burnt briehtly, but without being very rapidly consumed. The fact of the combustion is, therefore, well ascertained, but before the system can be adopted there are some important points to be considered, such as the calorific power of the mixture compared to that of pure coal, its price, and, above all, a remedy for the great drawback at taching to it its foulitig the tire grate considerably. A 'lnluiant for llio BrltUh Crews. London cor. Cincinnati Commercial. Here is a circular, just out, admonish ing ns that another claimant has ap peared, the estate in this case being only the crown of England. Thomas Frederick George Guelpb, of 4 Thorn hill Crescent, Bainsbury, London, pro claims his ability and resolution to prove that he is Duke ot l ork, right ful and lawful descendant by the legal marriage oetween George the 1 turd and Hannah I.ightfoot. and entitled to the Arms of Hanover and the Dragon of Wales," and that the S3 called Prince of Wales " is only entitled to the Arms of Saxe-Coburg the Arms that were his fathers." Tom I (as we call him for short! writes: My mothers father (the Kev. David Davies, who was a strict Protestant minister, and the last male descendant of Llewellyn, the King of Wules), after having been dead many years, was excommunicated by a priest on Palm Sunday, in the year 172, at St. Albans, Brooke street, Holborn, K. C." This is uiTsterious, but looks as if Tom I had two strings to that bow with which he is to shoot the golden apple from Albert's head. But the Tichborne trial must en courage bim. How much will it cost to Frove that he is not the son of George II and Hannah Light foot? It is odd how long that pretty little Quakeress Hannah haurU the royal house, roor King George when he indulged in that flirtation could have had little idea that it would give rise to two Parliamentary debates and two costly trials, with no end to scandals. It is said that Queen Victoria has not been so gay since her husband's death as on the day when she heard of the deith of Mrs. Hives the old lady who, until three years ago, sat by her lirelem hearth fumbling over the papers which (in her belief and that of some of the Uit lawyers in England) entitled her to the crown; and now Han nah, so repeatedly Uid to rest, starts ud in a new avatar.

Tl weather is clear and frwsty, and streets are dry. the The libd suit of John F. Chamber! vs. Geo. Wilkes, of the Spirit of tl Times, came up yesterduy iu the K' Market Court. Wilkes and Chamber- Cm were present with counsel. Chain berlin was put upon the stand and ex nmiued regarding his residence in Ciu ciunnti and St. Louis and other places in the West, and his htminess nt that time. The examination ndjonrned ti Fridny. The Herald, in commenting upon the nomination for Chiel Justice, says: It was somewhat of a wonder why Waite was sent to Geneva, but why is he nom 'mated for Chief Justice? No ollic rpaon is nnnarcnt save that Grant is determined to nomitiute the mnn considers best." The Times considers the nomination a thoroughly respectable one. nnd likely to encounter little oppo sition. Perhaps if Ihe opinion of New York could have dictated the nomin ation cither Evarts, Woodruff or Pierre pout would have received it. 1'he Tn bune savs: We have at last our line! Justice, in all probability. Waite will be promptly confirmed. There is no reason whv he should not be." The World calls Mr. Waite comparatively an obscure Toledo lawyer, the nominee onght at least to have been a well-known lawyer. Every Senator must know this ppointment should not be confirmed The Sun does not consider the uom'.na' tion satisfactory. Many sad eases of destitution and starration are coming to ligtn among the poor classes of this city. Thousands of unfortunates, who have been out of work since the panic, are unable to ob tain food or shelter. Supplies are fur nished by charitable institutions and prtvate parties, but are utterly inade quate, and do not reach even one-half of th sufferers. .A starving family was discovered yesterday at 12 Thompson street Michael 0 Connell and wife and two children. O'Connell was literally dying of starvation; nothing can save him. For several months they have been Kving on a short allowance of food, but for the last two weeks hnd not a sin gle meal a day among the whole four Nn mark could be obtained. In No. 12 Thompson street Mrs. Sarah Abingdon, ged sixty-two years, living in a back garret, was found dead and the body tartly decomposed. Starvation is be- eveH tn be the cause, one was well connected. Her first husband was. a clergyman. It is stated that W. T. Carleton, de faulting secretary of the Union Trust Company, who absconded with tlO0,O0& has been seen in the oity several times lately. Detectives say lie will not be captured nnlcs the company offers a re ward. The liquor saloon ot the corner of Grand street and South t ifth avenue, a well known resort of a gang of Eighth ward thieves, was raided on by the po lice last night, and twelve men and six women, all well known thieves, captured. The Spanish man of war Aripeles is in such a leaky condition from damage sus tained by running sground ia the har bor, that she will likely have to go on the dry docks agaiu for repairs. Jacob Englehardf, collector for a brewer in Fifty-seventh street, was as saulted by four highwaymen, yesterday evening in Fifty-fourth street, knocked insensible with a sand bag and robbed of 1000 iu greenbacks and two checks, be sides his gold watch and chain. No ar rests made. Turn of stock speculation yesterday was inclined to the bear side, following up iu the break of the market at the close last week, caused by the passage of the Lake Shore dividend bill. Tho money market tends to incroased ease since thebauk return of yesterday. The shoemakers are reported to have struck against the reduction. Riotous demonstrations are reported in the mountain towns. The county court here has found fifteen indictments against persons for homicide aud kin dred crimes. CHICAGO. Chicaoo, January 20. Two destruc tive fires occurred about three o'clock this morning, causing the loss of several hundred thousand dollars. The tempo rary passenger depots of the Michigan Central, Illinois Centred and Burlington and Quincy railroads, foot of Lake street, were destroyed, with six or eight passenger coaches and Pullman cars, including all the baggage in the store rooms, together with the contents of the ticket office. The loss is probably f 150, 000. About the same time a block of fine marble front stores on State street, south of Van liuren, was destroyed, with the contents; loss, about $150,000. The Chicago Christ Episcopal church, which has bo long been a subject of legal and ecclesiastical contention, was sold very quickly Saturday to Win, Aldricb, of this city, for $'J500. The sale was under a foreclosure of mortgage for 7500 hell by a Mr. Vaughsn, of lihode Island. This mortgage was given two yea, .go. Four of the largest jewelry firms here, Rodden 4 Hamilton, A. U.

AMUSEMENTS. Mkmfiiis Tn katkr. Last night Mr, T. C. King appenrd ns "Hamlet, the Prince of Denmark." Mr. King gave a rendition of the role entirely differ ent from that given by Booth, . Barrett or other American actors. It was the Hamlet" of the old traditional Eug lisb school, to which Mr. King and Barry Sullivan belong. Booth presents the intellectual, scholarly "Hamlet"; it is a complete and symmetrical work of art, most pleasing to the eye and ear. Mr. King reads the text admirably well, and to the part he adds grace of move ment and carefulness of detail. It was evident last evening that Mr. King labored from the effects of a severe cold and was worn out by travel, he not arriving here until late last evening, which gave but little chance for rehears ing the play. -The support rendered by the company was fair. To night Mr. King will appear as " Richelieu," in which role he has made quite a reputa tion in other lands and cities. The St. Louis Republican says of King's Richelieu": Last night he appeared in "Riche lieu," and not only confirmed the good opinion, but proved himself a great actor. We say great actor, becans h9 leserves the title. Richelieu" gave him the scope in which his power could freely move, and offered a basis of com parison which all theatergoers demand before they can lully make up their minds in regard to an actor. It is a fine test role, nnd Mr. King nobly stood the ordeal. He gave us the best "Riche lieu" we liTive seen here since the palmy days of Forrest. It was infinitely supe rior to Barrett's, and as a whole better than Booth's. Neither of these actors have the physical strength to give "Rich- lieu nis grandest effects, and Mr. King has. He also grasps the character in all its subtleties of intellect, and allows cause why the weak and profligate king and his courtiers should stand in awe of the weak old man, even while his power wa's crumbling; and why Baradas and the other conspirators should quail be fore his threat of launching upon them the curse of Rome. It requires a great actor to fill the stage in the old cardinal, and Mr. King did it. that is all we have time to say now, and this much is due to Mr. King s rendition and physical em bodiment of "Richelieu." Masijt'kradk. Next Thursday night the bal masque given by the Confede rate Relief Association for the benefit of the orphans will come off at the Exposi tion building. The affair will be one of the most pleasant as well as magnificent entertainments our city has ever en joyed, and it is predicted that over five thousand persons will attend. The best of order will be preserved, and no viola- ion of any rule necessary for the proper management of the occasion vill be per mitted.
