Resolved, That the senate hereby expresses its condemnation of the refusal of the attorney-general, under what ever influence, to send to the senate copies of papers called for by its resolution of the 25th of January, and set forth in the reports of the committee on judiciary as in violation of official duty and subversied of the fundamental principles of the government and of a good administration thereof. ResoUed, That it is under those circumstances the duty of the senate to refuse its advice and consent to the proposed removals of officers, the documents and papers In reference to supposed official or personal misconduct of whom are withheld by the executive or any head of a department when deemed necessary by the senate and called for in considering the matter. Another resolution declares that that section of the civil service rules in regard to honorably, discharged union soldiers ought to be faithfully and fully put into execution.

Fenlen, the astute Van Duyn, the humorous Jim Byers, the bluff Commodore Delahay, the ubiquitous and oily Sinks, the only Joe Clarke, the gilded Judge Ide, and the genial John C. Douglass, have all retracted their vows of celibacy and resolved each to snatch some lovely female from her single bed, and change her name. The increasing severtiy of our winters will thus prove a blessing in disguise. We are pleased to chronicle the fact that the report that Judge Halderman would return to Siam, there to tarry permanently, is untrue. General Phra, chief of personal staff to the Mikado, resigned his place on account of increasing age, and has gone to Paris to recuperate.

The office is worth fifty thousand a year, and was offered by the Mikado to his old friend Halderman. The latter delayed his reply until he could consult those most interested in him, as to whether he should qualify for the position. He has cabled the Mikado that he will abide in Leavenworth and speculate in real estate. James Repine, of High Prairie, was in the city yesterday. Mr.

Repine is the sole survivor of the pleasant family, of the late Sheriff and County Treasurer Alexander Repine. Father, mother. three sisters and a brother, lie at Mount Muncie. "Jim" has a magnificent farm five miles west, a wife and five children, and weighs two hundred and fifty pounds. His Democracy was sucked with his mother's milk, and got from his father's loins, and permeates his anatomy the same as his religion, charity and bon hommie.

Long may he wave. The police ought to gather in the tramps. The city is swarming with villianous, lazy loafers, and the community will be startled one or these days at sundry fiendish out rages and murders. Deserving families who have become destitute should be kindly cared for by our charitable citizens and organizations, but every tramp should be immediately arrested on entering the city and furnished board and lodgings at the Hotel Walter, and given healthy exercise on the rock pile. An army of tramps infest the city.

There is no" sidewalk on' the northeast corner of Seventh and Shawnee streets, runningfrom Shawnee street north to the alley. This sidewalk has been badly needed for years, and it is the only space on the east side of Seventh street from Cherokee street to the reserve where the property holders have not been compelled to build a side walk. It is a source of great inconvenience to the public, and the street commissioner and chairman of streets and grades should enforce its construction at once. Good old Maggie Mitchell will be here to-night, and the rapidity with which seats are being reserved, is the best evidence that her popularity wanes not. To those, like the writer, who saw her over forty years ago on the boards, her every increasing popularity is a marvel.

Unlike the army and the navy there is no compulsory retirement for the stage when the actor passes sixty-four. One of the young couples joined in wedlock within a year has had a split up, and the better half has gone to her mother. The affair is not a serious one and lest gossips should magnify it, it is proper the press should come to their relief and say that it was simply a case of the silver plating wearing off of the "honey moon," in fact their first "spat." Leavenworth has a doctor who will shine in Chicago before long. The reason of it all is too long a story. A pretty little independent opulence is the magnet that attracts the lance.

The affair is a highly romantic one and when the event takes place it will cause a social earthquake, much gnashing of teeth, tears and disappointment. In respect to the diffidence manifested by several members of the legislature of this great commonwealth in terpsichorean art at the late complimetary ball given them by the Henpecked club, it may be truthfully said that women make fools of wise men and sage philosophers of dunces. Current report has It that Church has resolved to enlarge the seating capacity of the Grand by putting the gallery in the Music hall. This would be a great advantage to the quiet and peaceful theatre-goer, removing him far from the madding crowd.

A. Lafeyth, has become well known to the people of St. Joseph by reason of his harem-scarem career, arrived in the city yesterday on a mission of recovery. Before young Lafeyth left home last summer he stole his lather's gold watch, which he took to Kansas City and pawned for $30. When the young man arrived here he put at Hannah Thornton's house, and from this woman obtained money enough to redeem the super, which he afterwards turned over to her as security for money borrowed to get him out of a scrape.

The watch is an heirloom in the family, having been given to Dr. Lafeyth by his mother. The gentleman went to Thornton's yesterday and claimed the watch, offering another gold time piece as a substitute. Mrs. Thornton refused to give up the watch unless the money she had advanced the doctor's son was all paid.

Dr. Lafeyth refused to comply with this condition and swore out a search warrant, which was placed in the hands of Marshal Tullar and Deputy Marshal Broyles, who went tli roach the house, but failed to find the those interested, but I can say this, that the Mexican government deeply deplores such a thing and wiil take every step possible to rectify the matter by punishing the offenders, if they be such."
