Mapam de Padca Flecry, wife of I> A. de
Padua Fl?ury, Secretary of the Brazilian Lega
tion. died yesterday at the residence of her hat

nge ol thirty.six years. The deceased was an
estimable lady, and bad a largerircle of frien Is
in this city who will mourn fhcir lo-s.
Kow this, from the Cincinnati J?*r;?irer, is
simply awful:
Tney say that Madame Cataeazy, who takes
first rank as m belle and pretty woman in Wash
ington society, is a beauty only in the evening.
By daylight, and in morning toilet, she is a lit
tle, dumpy, waddling woman, decidedly j-atse,
but kind-mannered ami agreeable."
Appointments by the Piirsidewt.?The
President to-day made the following appoint
ments: George 8. Richards to be collector sec
ond district ircinia. in place of Samuel Rath,
resigned John W. Ross, assessor second district
Indiana, in place of Vincent H. Gregg,removed;
Andreas Will man, collector in place of Franz
Sigel, ninth district New York.
White Ilot sa Visitors.?Among those who
saw tbe President to-day were the Secretary of
the Treasury, Gen. Cowan, Assistant Secretary
of the Interior; Senators Nye, Clayton ami
Hitchcock; Representatives Kellogt.'and Meyers;
Gov. Geary, of Pennsylvania; e*-Gov. Newell,
of New Jersey; Commissioner Douglass, of the
internal revenue bureau; and iKsputy Commis
sioner Rogers, of the same office.
Cost of the Ceukvs Gen. Francis A. Wal
ker will ask Congress for 3180,000 for the cur
r< nt tiscal year, to complete the work of the
c< nsus. Of this sum, about #300,000 Is w anted
to pay marshals and assistants. The total expen
ses ol ilie census to date are *2.s?jf7 ,<;oo. The
eighth census cost 81,5*2,000. but in proportion
to the increase and work done the cost of the
present census is much less.
M r. Si mrerV hill bill tixing the tax on dis
tilled spirits at eighty ccnts per gallon is likely
to lead to a contest between the Finance Com
mittee of the Senate and the Ways arid Means
t oenmittee of the House, as the latter commit
tee claims that it is a revenue bill,
and therefore, urder the Constitutlor. should
originate in the House. Some of the inember>
of the Senate Finance Committee also take this
view of it, and the probabilities are that Mr.
Sumin-r will have to attach his hill to some
revenue bill lrom the House in order to get it
through.

that excellent and popular paper, the New York

and tlius far have found everything all right,
with two exception*?one being the account of r

deficit of 'JO cents, v hlcli has been accounted for
by an excess of 3) cents in the account of the

Gen. Spinner estimates that the huveetigatiou to
be thorough will consume several mouths. H
was at first apprehensive that more dlserep
anc.es might Ik; discovered, but now feels pretty
confident that every thing will be found correct
except the irregularities already discovered
The investigation will iMt mat-rlallv interfere

Neut?rlal Uomip,
The Washington correspondent of the Spring
field Rtpubliran sends to that paper the follow
ing gossip touch Bg senatorial probabilities:
There is but little interest manifested in the
pending senatorial elections, except in the state
of Ohio. In the six other states where senators
are to be chosen the i>olitics of the lcglslat-ircs
are so clearly defined that it is but a personal
struggle for success among the members of the
dominant party. In Ohio, however, this is dif
ferent, ana something of theeb mentsot the new
party movement enters into the contest, as sev
eral members of tlie legislature were elected as
independent republicans. The republican ma
jority on joint ballot i* only five, and the demo
crats have been actively engaged in form;ng a
coalition to defeat Mr.'Sherman. It U known
that within the last few davs overtures have
been aade to General Garfield on the part of
the dtmoerats to induce him to become a can
didate. but he does not seem to bite very easily.
The programme Is that, if Mr. Garfield wi'li
consent to allow the use of his nam**, enough re
publicans can be induced to absent themselves
from the caucus to insure Sherman's defeat
The democrat are also coquetting with ex
Secretaiy Cox, in case they cannot capture Mr.
Garfield. Mr. ShCTinan, however, considers
himself master of the situation, and is rather
mclined to sntcr at the prospect of a coalition
against him. As to the other states where elec
tions arc to be held, they are thus disposed of bv
well infoimediioliticians:?Representative Bcck
will probably succeed (J'trrett Davis in Ken
tucky. Senator Harlan, of Iowa, has two strong
competitors. Wilson and Allison, with the
chances m l'avor of Allison, who was a member
ot the House last session. Mr. Cole, ot Cali
fornia. is working lor Ms own re-election, but
Representative Sargent's piospects are consid
er. d much the best. Maryland, which has a
legislature thre? toi>rtl>? democratic, will replace
Mr. Viekers with William Pinckney Whyte, the
presefit Governor. Georgia has a vacancy which
fa now being contested b Messrs. Blodgeu and
Norwood, and North t'arolina is similar!*' situ
ated. the contestants, Ahlnttf and Vance, beiug
now here. Mr. Blo-lg. tt is tainted with the
Bullock frauds, and auee U ineligible un let
the 14th amendment."
Our infoi mation fiom Kentucky does no
exactly contradict what is said above as to tli
contest in that state, but it Is to the effect that
Mr. McGrcery is himself hard at work, with
considerable faith in his success, and that the
friends of Humphrey Marshall and ex-Governor
Bramlctte are each sanguine that their favorite
will get the largest vote on the flrst ballot, and
develop at the proper time the necessary strength
to carry the election.
A? to Ohio, we sec no reason to change the
opinion heretofore expressed that Mj Sherman
willb<; returmd from that state. There la no
doubt but efforts at a coalition have been made",
and overtures offered, as stated, but so far with
little or no prospect of success. The lateat
movement looked to Mr. Bingham as a leader,
but it is not likely to amount to much. Mr. B.
doesn't nibble verv readily at an empty hook,
and beside he is no( considered strong enough in
his own party to carry off' much strength from
Mr. Sherman. The' chances are, therefore,
strongly In favor of the retnrn of Mr. S though
it cannot be denied that he has some verv bittei
opponents on his own political side of the legis
lature, who will labor long mod hard to securc
his defeat.

??EKHRAI. AHSFSTY.
Mr. Robertson, from the ommitt<*e on Disa
bilities, reported back formally the House gene
ral Mnuesty bill.
1 RKltrCTIOM or INTERNAL TAXE*.
Mr. Sumner introduced hi* bill to rcdtiee in
ternal taxes and altolNh the office of C?mra'?
siener of Internal Revenue. It proix^* to
make the tax ou *pirit* 80 cent* a gallon; no
other tux to Ik- im|M>Md.
Mr. Sherman inquired what wa* the use of in
troducing a bill of tbi* character in the Senate,
in view ol the position taken by the Hou*e 01
Representatives that all bill* in reference to the
revenue shall originate in that body. Thia bill
propose* to tax the revenue, and hence hi
doubted the propriety of it* introduction.
Mr. Sumner said his object was to reduce tax
ation. and he very much d<*tru*tedthat the Sen
ate should disarm itself of the power to reduce
the hardens of the people.
Mr. Slit rman did not want to inaugurate anv
controversy with the House on this subject.
The House, it will be remrmben-4, took such
ground on the income tax bill a* to show that
they will not recede from their |?o*ition. Of one
thing he was certain, that the Senate could not.
under cover of a bill to reduce taxation, raise
the tax on whisk v to 80 cents a gallon.
Mr. Sumner did not propose to raise the tax
00 whisky. He was informed that the actua
tax watt about 80 cent* a gallon. There wa* the
barrel tax, the tax 011 the whole*ale and on the
retail dealer, and lastly the capacity tax. He
promised merely to do awav with all' thene and
make the tax specifically *0 cents a gallon. H<
thought this objection w premature, and that
it would bett. r come in a report from the com
mittee. He stood here a* tl?e representative ol
his constituents.
Mr. Thurman a'.'nded to the compromise tariil
bill introduced by XI r. Clav and paused by both
House*, and lio[?-d that hi* colleague" (Mr.
Sherman) would make no objectiou to this bill
being referred.
The bill was then referred to the Committee
on Finance.
M r. Pomerov introduced a bill for the appraise
ment and sale of the Kansas Indian Un l< in
Kai sas. Referred to the Committee 011 Indian
Aflairs.
Mr. Nye introduced a bill to provide for th<
irrigation of the Bear Kiver Valley, in Utah
Territory. Referred to Committee on Public
Lands.
Mr. Morton submitted a concurrent resolution
for adjournment Jinr JU- of the two Houses 01.
the 3d Monday of May, 1*72, which he asked lie
over until to-morrow.
Mr. Ixifian introduced joint resolution legal
izing the issue of food, clothing and rations b\
the Secretary of the War to the sufferers by fire
at Chicago. Laid on the table and ordered to
be printed.
Mr. Conkling asked to take up hi* resolution
instructing the Committee on Military Affair
to inquire lute the facts attending
THI H<T<;E DEFALCATION,
and to report whether similar defalcation
cannot be prevented hereafter.
Mr. Trumbull suggested in lieu to take up hi*
resolution proving a special committee on re
trenehment and civil service reform. The scop,
of hi* resolution wa* much broader, and wouM
cover the matter contained in the other resdu
tion.
Some further d:*cn*sion ensued, when Mr
Trumbull expla-'m-d that his proposition was t
revise the -Joint Committee on Retrenchment.
Mr. Schurz said he had been a member of tli<
Retrenchment Committee, and that coaimitte*
liad alwav* considered it to be it* business to in
vestigate all case* of fraud and corruption aris
ing in the service of the government.
Mr. Tliurmau suggisted that Mr. Conkling's
resolution be allowed to be taken up. and tha;
Mr. Trumbull could offer his resolution as a
substitute.
Mr. Conkling's resolution wa* according!*
taken i:p. when Mr. Trumbull submitted his a.
a substitute.
