Mav 1H.—After tin* rail of Stull S ill the li .use tin. sj.i-i.k- r r-'-ngiu/i-l Mr. Throckmorton, clinirnmn m the Fn- ciiic railroad committi e, to move a sus- peiiHiou of the rules to set npurt a day lor the c-onsideration of bills from that com mittee notv on the calendar. When sus pension -lav occurred a month ago this committee iimi the floor, but the house ad journed before it agr-od to do anythin# with the motion then pending. The spuiker will decide, if the point is raised, that the committee still has the Poor and is entitled to make the motion proposed. The next committee in order is the Mis sissippi levees, from which a motion may be expected to fix a day for the considera tion of business from that committee. Mr. O'Donnell, of Michigan will then I <_■ recognized from the educational commit tee to set apart n day for tin.-lull requiring scientific temperance instruction in the public schools In the District of Columbia, m tin; territories and in the military and naval academies and the Indian and color- j ed schools supported wholly or in part Vy 1 money from the national treasury. Peti tions for the enactment of such ft law already received aggregate hundreds of thousands of signatures. They have come in duplicate to the senate and house every day since congress met, and from all parts of the country, showing the most methodi cal and persistent plan of petition eve- be fore developed in congressional history. The least the house can do is to show its , good intention by fixing a day, by sp--eial order, for the discussion of the bill, though > it will probably never lie taken up. THE LA BOH COMMITTEE. The committee on labor having divested itself of tliu educational bill, which if never wanted, will ask the house to make a special order for the consideration - f hills from that committee, excepting the educational bill. Under the rules it will | taki two-thirds to suspend, and the friends , of the so-called Blair hill will, it is said, endeavor to defeat the motion if the edu cational bill is excluded from the measures to be taken by the labor committee. Mr O’Neill, chairman of the oommittee, says | that the hill never had any business before the laborites anyhow, audit is the very re finement of cruelty to further afflict the committee with the custody of the meas ures. Its champions ought, he says, to ' take care of it, now that it is on the calen dar. REVENUE MATTEJth. Speaker Carlisle, referring!-, the revenue | bill, which the agricultural < mmittec is | likely to press, imposing a tax on the | manufacture of butter counterfeits, says that whenever such a measure comes be- ! fore the house the whole subject of taxa- j tion, whether by internal or customs laws, i may be involved in the debate. Consider- J ation of any revenue hill involves every possible ijuustiou along the whole line of j tariff und internal revenue. The fishery j trouble may be discussed, and the propose j tion to add free fish to taxed oleomarga- 1 line would only he one of tin- incidents of the controversy as to what should he taxed and what made free. He also says the j manufacturers of pure lard want to lie ' protected, and the gn at friends of Young America, the manufacturers of pur.* candy, are demanding protection against those | who use poisonous and deleterious mate rial in making candles. Even the pure wine dealers want to be protected in then- effort to supply our market with native I wines. The dairymen are. not the only I parties who believe that congress is nil : powerful to help them have their own way. the shipping atu„ If the senate should agree to amend the house shipping bill by adding Senator ! Frye’s retaliatory measure against Cana- I dian vessels. Speaker Carlisle thinks that | Senator Frye would at once ask the senate to appoint a conference committee, as lie has done on several occasions, without i waiting for action by the house in order t , hasten the consideration of 'the amend ment by the house. Otherwise the amend ed house bill would have to he ref- rred to the committee on shipping, and take its chances on the calendar with many antag onizing measures ahead of it. The t.'hinose indemnity hills will pm lo in the Pacific slope senators in i In- of ! lie as t~li in th hr- -light speeches from and members of tin- foreign re lath inittee. The existing special orde senate will take the remainder month to dispose of. BECHET SESSIONS. Several of the senators know strongest supporters of secret ses: preparing themselves to speak Platt resolution when it is again forward. Their first intention wastoalh-w the friends of open sessions to discuss the question and then proceed to a vote with out extended remarks on their side. But several informal conferences on li joct have led those who are recognir- d as the defenders of executi > ■ sessions io conclude that the public rightly expo, is m Ik ar ttie grounds for the opposition lie sentiment in this matter. It i- n port ed. therefore, about the senate that there will l e three or four strong speeches in opposition to ihe Platt resolution. ( qn senator says that the newspaper p-oss will receive considerable nth ntmn in this pot tion of the debate. The announcement of tilt renomimnion of Mr. Lowry, of tin- Fort Wayne Iml district, was ree-ivu! with gr-sit sutisfae- tion by both sides ( ! ill- nouse. m ariy every- member of which wishes the good I,ii-tune may come to him.

The nomi nating conventions are not far off, and tin- desire to he on the watch and at work in their districts is beginning to have its ell- et in hurrying congress. Ill, Cu-loin-s. , Hartford Times, * The singular rapidity and persistency With which disasters from lUnmsnheri'e disturbances have thus early marked tin- season of lSSd will not fail to attract ntt- n- tion of the whole country. Duringthis one weekending with the'15th of May, tin- actual number of deaths, caused fry cy clones mostly .with a score by water spouts , is between seventy ana eighty. There is unfortunately no longer room tu Question the tact of the continuance of the tornado series 'vhich have for the last tour or five years so disastrously visited the most parts of t n irlol.e. and se< niingly with the nio*-t di. w a‘* trous consequeiicefi in the United States, and principally in the crencrally level reunion west ofth« Mississippi. N\hv these som allod cyclones should he so much more violent, frequent and destructive during these particular years, is a qucMh n for the physicist#: the* mere meteorologist* find it loo big a subject for them. There are tho.se who believe that the i hit eUtry p< riholi -n, which has been rf <vhing | its culmination during the very rime of these tornadoes, say for the d-st four; /« a:*->—ami which is now slowly passing otr has had much to do with these dis turbances of tlie atmosphere of our globe. , ]t m vy he so. ( rirtainlv if the philosophers j and astronomers art right in tno view that I every planet in our system exerts an i;n- j portanl gravitational influence on every other one, even the farthest, it. may well j he that in the extraordinary state of; things which has existed for the last four vears with most of the major pian- 1 cts. there may be a stronge r influence than usual on the, to them, nearest of t he inner planets of the system. If there were to be any such influence, it would be likely to be as the Times pointed out, some five years ago, when there was so much uneasy specul ition about “the peri helion’' -an' inlluence directly shown in our disturbed Atmospheric conditions. : Tie r<* would probably be, as was then stated in these columns, tornadoes of unu- | sual violence and frequency, but nothing I more alarming. The facts seem to have borne out that prediction. Whether these tornadoes are to continue for another series of years, time only must ' determine. If they do. it. will show that i tlie outer planets had nothing to do with i these disturbances. Whatever the cause, • these frightfully violent storms have I wrought a terrible work—each year seem- j ing to increase it. One tornado in Spain, on Thursday, killed a good many people and mangled six hundred more, besides causing u loss of .f1,000,000 to buildings and fields. Nutriment in Food. Fat pork contains a large amount of nutriment. Fish is less nutritive than meats, hut live pounds of nutritive material being obtain ed from 100 pounds of material. It usually contains about five percent. Salt mack erel is among the most nutritive and floun der is one of the poorest. hi a pint of milk and a pint of oysters there is the same amount of nutriment, although the oysters contain more protein and the milk more fat. Cheese contains a large amount of nutrition. • Butter has eighty-seven and one-half per cent, of nutrit ive matter. The pseudo-but ter, oleomargarine, has about the same value in this matter. The breads representing the carbohy drates contain about 88 or 35 per cent, of water, flour from !) to 13 per cent, corn and maize meal still more water. They have less protien and more fat; oatmeal has, on t he contrary, more protein and less fat. In general, this class contains most all nutri tive material and but little water. A pound of potato, however, contains a large amount of water and but little pro tein. The figures on which the statements are based -are not so satisfactory as could be desired, as most of tlie experiments have been carried on in Europe, especially those of the animal foods. The vegetable foods have been more investigated in this country t han the animal. The quickest time on record!

Ga„ Dots, WESTERN RAILROAD OF ALABAMA, Mi< Something About the Ups and Downs of Hor Inhabitants. MISS HCVIH \Y amvi: Atlanta papers .'ire giving the public some turi- 1 mis and wonderful eases that are quite ii’tec-t- ing. It seems a young lady of Atlanta had 1 been reported a? dead, but it came to the eat- «*f the Constitution reporter that she was atilt alive, and being on the alert for news, culled at her residence to learn all the facts. Miss Dunaway, who had been pronounced dead, said : “For four years rheumatism and neuralgia have resisted physicians and nil other treatment. My muscles seemed to dry up. my fiefih shrank away, my joints were swollen, painful and large, lost my appetite, was reduced to 60 pounds in weight and for months was expected to die. I com menced the use of R. 15. B„ and the action of one- half bottle convinced my friends that it would cure me. Its effect was like magic. It gave me an appetite*, gave me strength, relieved all my pains ami aches, added ilesh to my bones, and when five bottles had been used r had goinod 50 pounds in fiosli, and am to-day sound and well.

I had previously used all well recommended medicines without relief. Jt has l»een over one year since using H. J-.. B.. and 1 consider myself a perma nently cured man.” Hr. It. I*. IHHHiil'..

Several physicians and various patent medicines were reported to, yet the disease con tinued unabated, nothing appearing to make any impression upon it. Her constitution finally be came implicated, the poison being in her blood, •f secured a bottle of B. 13. B. and placed her upon its use, and to our surprise the improveim nt began at once, and her recovery was rapid and complete. No other preparation ever produced such a wonderful change, and for all forms of blood diseases I cheerfully recommend B.
