Washington, Nov. 2.—The reading of the journal of yesterday’s proceedings was dispensed with, and the death of Sen ator Morton was annonnoed by Senator McDonald. Resolutions were submitted by him, providing for the appointment of a com mittee of six Senators to attend the funeral of the deceased Senator,which was agreed to.

HOUSE* The army bill was reported and made the special order for Wednesday next. It provides that the army shall oontinne of the same force as of yesterday, November 1, and forbids reorniting beyond what is neoessary to maintain that force. The House will adjourn to Tuesday. The bill to repeal the resumption aot came up again in the morning hour and Ewing of Ohio, who haB charge of it with drew the motion to recommit and acoept ed Fort’s bill as a substitute and moved the previous question. Hale, of Maine, moved to lay the bill on the table. Motion defeated by a vote of 108 to 140. The morning honr expired and the bill went over. Several motions to adjourn over were made and defeated.

The Speaker appointed as a committee to attend Morton's fnDeral Messrs. Harris pod Cobb, of Indiana; Wilson, of West Virginia; Bnrohard, of Illinois; Davidson, of Florida; Banks, of Massachusetts, and Townsend, of Kentucky. the repeal of resumption in morning HOUR. Special to Euqnirer-8ua.] Washington, November 2.—Banning introduced a bill for the increased pay of letter carriers prepared by the convention now in session here. The call of committees having been concluded, the Speaker stated that the Committee on Banking and Currency had the floor for the remainder of the morn* ing honr. Conger, of Missouri, moved to go into a Committee of the Whole on the private calendar. The Speaker deolined to admit the mo tion, on the gronnd that there will be no bills on the private calendar,and he added that tho Chair ought to exercise a little common sense in 6Uoh matters. Conger retorted that if the Chair was making an effort in that direction, he (Conger) was unwilling to interfere with him. [Laughter.] Ewing, of Ohio: I am instrnoted by the oommitlee for the purpose of giving that opportunity for debate and amendment about whioh gentlemen on both sides of the House seems to b» solicitous, to ask unanimous consent to substitute for the uommitteo’s bill that presented by the gentleman from IllinioR, (Fort), and that the substitute be made the speciol order for Tuesday, the 13th inst., aud from day to day until disposed of, with the under standing that two amendments may be offered before the previous qoestion is de manded. The committee oonceives that its bill is of precisely the sam9 effect as that proposed by the gentleman from Illi nois. The committee’s bill proposes to repeal the whole 3d seotion of the re sumption act. That 3d seotion repealed all the restrictions on banking as to the amount of bank currency and its distribution, that existed on the the 14th day of January, 1875. If that 3d section be now itself repealed, the former restrictions and limitations repealed by it will not be re stored. That is true as a proposition of law and it is specially provided in the re* vised statutes, sec. 12, chap. 2, that whenever an act whioh repealed a former aot is itself repealed, such former aot shall not be thereby revised unless ex pressly provided. The committee, there fore, believed, and still believes, and has no question about that, if its bill became a law banking will be free. The bill df the gentleman from Illinois was proposed nnder the apprehensions that the repeal of the third section would restore the re strictions in the aggregate amount of hanking ourrency, and its distribution. For the purpose of quieting any fears of that sort, the committee is willing to ac cept the amendment of the gentleman from Illinois as a substitute for its bill. The Speaker informed him that this could not be done without unanimous consent. Objection was made. Hubbell, of Michigan, a member of the Banking Committee, inquired of Ewing what two amendments he would permit to; be offered. Ewing replied that any two amendments might be offered that would be agreed upon by the opponents of the bill. Hubbell—Will you allow me to offer a snbstitute ? Ewing repeated his proposition. Hubbell asked that his substitute be read. Ewing objected on acoount of time. Hubbell—Then Iobjeot to your proposi tion. Ewing—Very well. I now yield the floor to the gentleman from Illinois to of fer his amendment. Fort, thereupon, offered his amend ment, the same as printed. Ewing—I move the previous question on the bill and amendments. Hale, of Maine—I move to lay them on the table. The motion was defeated by yeas 180, nays 140. The Speaker then announced that the morning honr had expired. GEORtilA. NEGRO LAWYER FROM SOUTH CAROLINA APPLIES FOR ADMISSION TO THE SUPREME COURT. Special to Enquirer-Sun.] Atlanta, Nov. 2.—Styles L. Hutchens, of Columbia, S. C., colored, made appli cation to the Supreme Court of Georgia for admission to practioe to-day. He presented a certificate of admission to the bar of South Carolina, a certificate of the Chief Justioe of that State that he was a practicing lawyer in good standing, and a commission from Gov. Hampton appoint ing him a trial justice. The Court told him it would admit him on the papers as a lawyer from South Carolina, but he stated he desired to reside in Georgia. The Court said the admission to the Su preme Court here entitled him to no privileges in the oourts below, and ad vised him to apply to the Superior Court. TRIAL OF CARDOZO. MORE DAMAGING TESTIMONY. Special to Enquirer-Sun.] Columbia, 8. O., November 2.—Clerk Woodruff finished his testimony, which was damaging to Cardozo, showing a con spiracy to defraud the State was entered into by Cardozo and officers of the Gen eral Assembly. When prosecution closed its evidence direct, defendant Cardozo was sworn and bos been on the witness stand for several hours. His denial of certain transactions, inoluding the Frankfort certificate will prolong the testimony, as other witnesses will bo prodnoed to oontradiot him. Tho present indications are, that the trial will extend to next week. THE TURKO-RUSSIAN WAR. RUSSIANS GOING AHEAD. THEY LOSE MANY OFFICERS—A BEVEIW OF THE SITUATION IN ASIA. A. OAKEY HALL. HIS MYSTERIOUS RETURN WITH NO EXPLA NATION. New York, November 2.—Tho return of ex Mayor A. Oakey Hall to ibis city is as mysterious es hiR disappearance last March. No one appears to know how he came. Mr. Hall declares he oannot ex plain his sudden departure. His remem • brance of the first part of his journey is very indistinct. He had no idea of whore he was going, or the reason for the aot. Coach’ Robbed—Thieve* Captured Cheyenne, Wyoming Territory, No vember 2—The coach which left Dead- wood Tuesday morning coming south, was stopped and robbed within three miles of the fort by two armed men. Sev eral passengers were on tho coaoh, among whom wore United States Marshal Swee- zy. The robbers took everything of value. Lieutenant Chase, with a detaohment of the Third Infantry, started this morning in pursuit of the thieves. After a five mile chase the robbers were captured. One was identified as Webster, the mur derer of Deputy Sheriff F. Cuuey. MEHEMET A LI. London, November 2.—The Times' Vi enna correspondent telegraphs as follows: Mehemet Ali Pasha has arrived at Salon* ica en route for his Herzegovinian com mand. He will establish his headquarters at Novi Bazar, whioh is convenient for operation either against Montenegro or Servia. The militia from Constantinople are to be sent to reinforce him., RUSRIAN HEADQUARTERS. London, November 2.—A special dis* patch from Bogat, about eight miles south of Plevna, to the Times 1 has the following : The Czar arrived here on the 27th of October. Grand Dnke Nicholas has his headquarters here. Gen. Tadle- ben is at Tuckenitza with his staff. The Prince of Routnania’s headquarters are at Poradin. HEAVY LOSS IN OFFICERS. The attack on Telisohe, simultaneously with the capture of Dubrika on the 24th was repulsed with the loss of a thousand men. The loss at Dubnika three thous and men. Every brigade and regimental commander was killed or wounded, and us nearly all the officers of the Guards are personally known at headquarters, the faot that two hundred officers have been plaoed hors de combat has oast a deep gloom ovor the members of the staff at Bagat. The bombardment of Plevna|continues in a desultory way. BILIBTRIA THREATENED. A special dispatch from Sarnia to the Daily Telegraph says Silistria is threat ened with investment, but is exceedingly strong in its defence and fully armed. The garrison is in an admirable condition and commanded by Selarni Pasha, one of the best Turkish generals. REVIEW OF THE ASIATIC POSITION. A Constantinople telegram says Moukh* tar Pasha’s position is critical. The following are extracts from a re view of the Asiatio campaign in yester day's Times from the pen of Capt. Nor man, lately a correspondent with Moukh- tar’s army, and expelled by the Tnrks for unfriendly oritioisms: The Deviboyou, the crest of a range 2.000 feet higher than tho surrounding plain, presents every facility for a most determined resistance of Ghazi. Moukh* tar can reach this in safety, and throw 25.000 men into the very formidable works that, under the able direction of his gallant Hungarian chief of staff, Gen. Koblemann, have been recently con structed, Devibojun should defy a frontal attack, and at this season a flank move ment over the mountains, 8,000 to 9,000 feet above the sea, presents almost insurmountable difficulties. As to a flank movement from Olti and Pennek, it may be checked by the troops from Pennek under Hassan Bey, who will ooonpy the works at Guirji Boghaz, a pass where the three roads from Pennek to Erzeronm converge. Erzeroum is not a very formidable for tress, but under the direction of General Koblemani), the enoiente has been re paired, the parapets considerably strengthened, magazines placed under the ramparts, detached forts folly provis ioned. Arrangements are made to insure an adequate supply of water and more than 100 Krupp guns, varying from 15 to 20 centimetres oaliber, are mounted on the walls. The city, however, is very unhealthy, typhus fever having been rife all the summer, and moreover it is very inadequately provisioned, as far as the civilian element is concerned. All stores have been seized by tbe Government for the use of troops. Referring to the re port from St. Petersburg of negotiations for tho surrender of Kars, Oapt. Norman says : I oannot credit the rumors that the commandant has entered into negotiations for the surrender of that place. I am aware from personal observation that very large supplies of ammunition, for both small arms and artillery, were thrown into the plaoe dur ing July, August aud September, and that the oommissnriat store house was com pletely replenished. It was dangerously denuded of troops during the occupation of the Aladja Dayh. If Monkhtar Pasha v/as enabled, subsequently to his defeat on the 14th of October, to leave a garrison of the same strength as he did in April, there should be no fear for its safety. If, however, be was unable to do so, it is more than probable it will fall by a coup de main, but it will not tie starved into submission. [Note—The garrison in April consisted of 29 battalions, number ing less than 5,000 men each. J Tho Daily News' correspondent with tbe Russians before Kars states tbe garri son now numbers 10,000 men. Illgrlt Wind* In New York. New York, Nov. 2.—At noon to-day the wind was blowing from the eastward uncommonly high. Pedestrians on the streets were scarcely able to make head way against it. Not a sail of any desorip tion was seen on either North or East rivers, or the bay, the small craft of every description having sought shelter. The force of the wind was attested by the fact that ferry boats were at times scaroely able to move against the wind. It is ex pected it will be usually severe to-day and to-night in the North Atlantic coast. Mock Operators Arrested. Han Francisco, November 2.—Three stook operators from New York, Darned John Leighton, 0. H. Barnard and Wm. J. Potter, were arrested here yesterday, charged with conspiracy in the oomplaint of Henry S. Tibby in obtaining from Tibby large sums of money by misrepre sentations, and by forming a pool of the stock of tbe Exchequer Mining Company. In default of $30,000 hail each they were locked up. Failures nt Chicago. Chioaoo, Nov. 2.—Winslow Bushnell filed a voluntary petition in bankruptcy. Secured debts $05,000, with securities worth $120,000; unsecured debts $80,000; assets about $11,000. Geo. F. Batchelder, commission mer chant, failed. Liabilities $47,000; assets small. Ntorm at New York. New York, November 2.—A very se vere southeasterly wind and rain storm set in hero last night, and at this honr, 11 a. m., continues with unabated violenoe. jNteamboat Bnrned at Hi. Louis. St. Louis, November 2.—The steamer Bismarck was burned at the wharf. Value $35,000. Insured for $15,000 in Cincin nati aud Pittsburg. FRANCE. MINISTER DE CAZES HANDS IN HIS RESIGN A TION. London, November 2.—The Times' Paris correspondent announces the Duke DeCazes handed in his resignation several days ago. His retirement may already be considered an accomplished faot, as he will quit official residence within an hour of its public announcement. THE SITUATION DISCUSSED BY VICTOR HUGOS Paris, November 2.—Victor Hugo’s or gan, the Rappel, says: Many Republican Senators aud Deputies have arrived. Al though no formal meetings have yet been held, there have been frequent consulta tions between them. From these some general deductions may be made concern ing the intentions of the Republiouns, aud the course of events may, to a certain ex tent, be predicted. There have been no negotiations or overtures for a compro mise with the men of the 10th of May. No member of thh Left has been ap- proaohed with this objeot by auy repre sentative, more or less direct, of the Ely- te. In conversation between members of the Republican party various contingen cies have been discussed, although, course, no resolu ion has jet been taken. In the event of Marshal Mao* Mahon’s retirement from the Presidency M. Grevy’s candidacy will be unanimous ly supported. M. Grevy has allowed it to be understood that he wonld not shrink from any duty or responsibility in the interest ot the Republican cause. Should the Marshal retain his post with a Republican Ministry, tho unanimous opinion prevails that more effective guar antees must be required, than the case of the previous Ministry. Tho members of the oommittees of the Left in the Cham ber will meet on Monday to resolve upon the course of the party. a horrible; murder. RESIDENCE OF WEALTHY ILLINOIS FARMER BUBNED —HIS DAUGHTER’S CORPSE FOUND IN THE RUINS, WITH EVIDENCE TO SHOW THAT HER THROAT HAD BEEN CUT. Terre Haute, Ind., Oct, 81.—A horri ble murder was oommittod last night about 3 o’clock, 8 miles west of this oity, near Sandford Station, on the Iudianap olis and St. Louis railroad, at the resi dence of Bnrgoyne Tritt, a wealthy farm er. His daughter Rosa, aged 19, had been the objeot of attention from a yonog man in the neighborhood, and also from Sylvanus Burnham, a hired mau, who had been in the employ of Tritt three years, On Sunday evening Rosa’s lover paid her a visit, which caused a quarrel with Burnham, and be threatened her saying he wonld get even with his rival. lie was also incensed by Rosa’s brother, who wanted to whip him Monday, bnt was pre vented by the elder Tritt. Lust night the two old folks were uwakoned by a light, and fonnd the upper story of the house on fire and Burnham missing. The house was consumed, with everything in it, after whioh tbe corpse of Rosa was found in the ruins, with her legs, arms and head bnrned off, but enough evidence to show that the girl’s throat had been cut, and a deep wound in her side. She had been also smothered in a large oarpet, so that the trank was not much burned. The murderer was seen oorning into the oity early this morning, bnt it is not known where he went. He was from Tennessee, and has relatives here. The face of Mrs. Tritt was badly scorched when she tried to get np stairs, on discovering the fire. Deputy U. H. Collector Arrested. Augusta, Ga., Nov. 2.—-W. M. Moore, U. S. Deputy Collector of Third District of Georgia, was arreHted to-day, charged as a defaulter in the Rum of $1,000.

I have devoted twenty years of patient study to the Liver and its relations to tho human body, in search of a remedy whioh wonld restore it, when diseased, to its normal condition. Tho result of that la bor has been tho production of TUTT’B LIVER PILLN. Their popularity has become so extended and the demand so great uh to induce un scrupulous parties to counterfeit them, thereby robbing me of the reward, and the afflicted of their virtues. TO CAUTION THE PUBLIC, and protect them from vile impositions, I have adopted a new label, which bears my trade-mark and notice of itn entry in the Office of the Librarian of Congress, also my signature, thus : •STTo Counterfeit this is forgery, j&a Before purchasing, examine the label olosely. THE GENUINE TUTT'S PILLS exert a peculiar influence on the system. Their action is prompt, and their good effects are felt in a few hours. A quar ter of a century of study of the Liver has demonstrated that it exerts a greater in fluence over the system than any other or gan of tbe body, and when diseased the entire organism is deranged. It is speci ally for the healing of this vital organ that I have spent so many years of toil, and having found the remedy, which has proved the greatest boon ever furnished the afflicted, shall they bo deprived of its benefits, and a vile imitation imposed up on them ? Let the honest people of America see to it TIIAT THEY ARE NOT DEFRAUDED: Scrutinize the label closely, see that it bears all the marks above mentioned, and buy the medicine only from respectable dealers. It can be found everywhere. Very respectfully, tf w. H. TUTT Dr. C. W.

Donn Platt in the Cincinnati Enqulror.J Washington, Ootober 28.—Returning along Pennsylvania avenne from my office yesterday afternoon I was struok with the appearance of the crowd I en countered. It was pervaded with in flamed eyes, red noses and a general look of utter wretchedness such as I have never witnessed before. “Hello 1” thought I, believing this to be the ordi nary exodus at this honr from tho Treas ury, “what has happened to the clerks and olerkesseR? It oannot be that John Sherman is dead, for in that oaho we should have smiles, not tears. Has the inflated currency exploded?” Meeting Harry Borden, also sad unto death, with the yet nnsbed tears in his handsome eyes, I said aloud : “Hello, Harry, what happened at the Treasury ?” Harry removed his beaver, and running his handkerchief over his wide skating rink, he gazed at me through his tears and responded : “Nothing that I know of ; why ?” “I thought from the tears, idle tears, on these intellectual countenances that some great misfortune had happened you.” “Oh! that’s it, is it ?" ho answered; “why, we have been to see Clara Morris in Miss Mnlton. Do you know that I saw General Butler weeping ?” “Oh, hush!” “Faot, and if you don’t believe mo look at General Banks.” Sure enough, this oast iron ex-Speaker came strolling along in his dignified stylo, and his face, like all others, indicating the grief that finds relief in toars. If you consider this an exaggeration, witness the rendition of tho unfortunate mother by this gifted actress. It is no uncommon event to have the honse dis turbed during tho performance by some poor lady going off in hysterics, and the other night an elderly gentleman, in striving to restrain his expressions of grief, broke down in something like con vulsions. The next day tho wicked men on Newspaper Row spread the report that it was old Simon Cameron whoso guilty conscience had been touched as the be trayed widow arose before bim, and that he fell sobbing: “Fetch her aloDg! fetch her along ! some of you literary fel lers. I want to make restitution!” The nndionce collected at tho National Capital to witness this performance have afforded me a more interesting study than the strange play and wonderful performer. Now that touch of genius fetohes out hidden traits of character and makes an exhibit of emotion no one evor before suspected. Who oould believe that Ros- ooe Conkling oould weep ? This man, who sleeps with his arms folded, with the gas burning all night that he may be seen aud sometimes see himself at all hours as the Senator—oau yon believe that, hidden in the recesses of a box devoted to him self, he wiped his Senatorial eyes and blew his Senatorial nose in grief, like the humblest of them? Blaine—impulsive, kind-hearted, mag netic Blaine—cried outright, with an abandon that actually indicated enjoy ment of tbe relief. Dawes—the Dodger Dawes—will yon believe it ? actually put his arm that ho generally keeps in the Treasury shout the neck of the old swallow-tailed Hamlin, adown whose aged nose the tears were falling, and said : “Ham, my friend, let us be better men.” “Dawes,” responded Hamlin, “let’s— I feel as if I had religion, don’t you ?” “Can’t say, Ham; I never had any; bnt I’ll get some.” Senator David Davis, the 300 pounds of Senatorial adipose, kept one in doubt ns to where the perspirntion ended and the tears began. Incredible as it may seem, he appears to be weeping all over. But by far the most impressive specta cle was a group of Southern men one night who gave way to their emotions with an abandon that is delightful to look upon. “Gentlemen,” cried Lamar, gazing oat with gloomy, abstracted look that im presses one with tbe belief that ho is lost in tbe dim distance of a dark future, and sees darkly “the chariot of Gabriel a oorning with four white horses And a rusher in the lead” to toat his eloquent soul to the further banks of Jordan— “Gentlemen, that is eloquence person ified.” “It must be,” responded Hill, wiping his eyes and then gazing curiously at his hnndkerchief “for I believe I shod a tear. She reminds me of au effect I once pro* duoed .” “If any dare say she is not tho greatest of all actors,” oried Joe Blackburn, “I’ll shoot bim on tbe spot.” Joe did not say what spot, whether the seven or the ace, bnt no one doubted bis sincerity, for by quoting Stanton as ene- dered by Dix be proved tho intense ex citement under whioh ho labored.
