The Custom Houses on issuing the corresponding permits and extending the respective pass, of which the return pass shall be presented, shall require bond to his satisfaction from whomsoever it may belong that he may prove within a prudent period indicated that the amount remitted was destined to the objeot for which it was sent, with the understanding the want of this proof, in its due time, will be sufficient oau6e for proceeding immediately to require the payment of the duties pertaining to the amount sent.

Adjonrned to Wednesday HOUSE COMMITTEES. The more importeut are given in full; THE OLD FANATIC THINKS HAYES ▲ BLESSED FOOL AND TRAITOR. Special to the Enquirer-Sun.] Boston, Oct. 29.—In a letter to Judge Pittman, Prohibition candidate for Gov ernor, William Lloyd Garrison, referring to President Hayes’ policy, says : With out impugning tho motives of the Presi dent, nay, according to him the best inf lection, I regard his polioy as a flagrant betrayal of the trust so confidingly com mitted to his hauds, and in violation of his pledges to see full protection secured to all classes at the South, without regard to complexion or distinctions, and as fraught with incalculable mischief, re-' joiciDg, as it does the hearts, strengthen- ing the bands and facilitating tbe plans of tho Southern conspirators against law and order, liberty and equal rights. It indicates a childish credulity, a blindness of vision, an imbecility of judgment, equally sup pressing and deplorable, and the Repub lican party cannot sanction it without im peaching its entire course from the open ing of the rebellion to the close of Pres ident Grant’s administration. The Dem ocratic party justly claims it as its own, and is jubilant accordingly. It is cause for deepest humiliation that the Republi can party in Massachusetts at its State Convention at Worcester went back upon its patriotic reoord and gave its unquali fied approval to this shameful surrender to the demands of those whose feet run to evil and who make baste to shed inno- oent blood. New York, October 28.—A Paris dis* patch says, among the callers on Grant yesterday were Count De Paris and Madame MacMahon. The General will attoud speoial representation of the Ital ian opera, given in his honor on Novem ber 8th. m’mahon, the ministers and probable COURSE. Special to Knqi.iror-Sun.] London, October 27.—A Paris dispatch to the Reuter Telegram Co., says Rou- ber has had an attack of appoplexy but is now hearty and well again. Le Francaise, the Duke De Broglie’s organ, stated yesterday that the ministers were prepared to meet in tho chambers and defend their polioy, but at the same time, were ready to resign, should Presi dent MacMahon think it his duty to re* move other counsellors. Le Francaise to-day explains that this did not moan that President MacMahon was disposed to capitulate to tbe Left. The Constitutionel and Payee, however, assert that President MacMahon has how ever acoepted tbe resignation of the cabi net in principal, but requested tbe minis ters to retain their posts pending bis future decisions. Le Pays adds: Saturday the council was somewhat excited, President Mao- Mahon declaring that he intended to eutor upon a path of compromise and consideration. Ministers De Broglie and Fourton supported their cause. SECOND BALLOTS ELECT NINE GOVERNMENT CANDIDATES AND TWO REPUBLICANS, Paris, Oct. 29.—In the seoond ballot yesterday the Government candidates were elected in Post and Chatteauvox. The Republican members of tbe former Chamber were boaten in both cases. The results of the second ballots yes terday, so far as known, show nine Gov ernment candidates and two Republicans elected. In three arroudissements the Republican candidates, claiming they were elected on tbe 14th inst., did not stand, intending to submit their olaim to the Chamber of Deputies. Tbe Republi cans, however, did not attach muoh im u parlance to these supplemental elections, because, excluding three uucontested arrondissemeuts above mentioned, ten second ballots were rendered neoessary simply by a division of the conservative vote between opposing Royalists and BonapartiBt candidates, one of whom has now withdrawn, rendering the result certain. Cornpte De Sepenells, Bona lartist, defeated M. Gudin, Moderate iepnblican, member of tbe last Chamber for Chateau Chinou, Department of Ncvre, whose candidature Gambetta went to Chateau Chiuou to support. MINISTERS OR MACMAHON MUST RESIGN, Paris, Ootober 29.—The Soliel again to-day, insists that either President Mao- Mahou or the Ministry must resign There is no other way out of the orisis! the Soliel says, and it naturally prefers that tbe Ministry should resign. The Conservative paper, L'Assemblee Rationale, declares it can oonfirm the statement of the Pays that the resigna tion of Ministers has already been de 1 termined upon in principle. ASSEMBLY NOW STANDS 320 REPUBLICANS AND 210 CONSERVATIVES. London, October 29.—Later intelli gence from Paris shows fifteen second ballots were held yesterday, resulting in the election of eleven Conservatives and four Republicans. By this result tbe Chamber will stand 320 Republicans and 210 Conservatives. [Note.—The result of yesterday’s ballotings reported in this dispatch do not admit tbe olaim of three Republicans that they were elected on the 14th inst., as mentioned in a previous dispatch. ] TURKISH JUNCTION IN ARMENIA.

Ml ETON SAYI.lIt At a mass meeting held by the Demo* oracy of llaltimoro on the night preced ing tho day of the municipal election in that city, Hon. Milton Sayler, of Ohio, was among the speakers. In tho eourso of his speech ho Haid : The oountry, he said, had tested a pretty good doRe of Republican rule, for one-half a generation they had hold ahso- soluto control of the Federal Government and of tho Legislatures of every State in the North. They aro responsible for tho bad legislation during that period. By their system of legislation, thieving amt robbery they have produced conditions of anarchy that the laborer is not secure iu getting his wages, and tho rich man iu keeping his wealth; aud tho Republicans crowned their infamy by putting into the Presidential chair a mnn who had uoltlior a majority of the popular vote or a ma jority of tho eleotorul vote. Ho was placed there—[Voice, “by fraud.”] [Applause. | “ do not impeach tho character or integrity ‘ President Hayes, nor do I impeach his legal title to the position, for lie was placed tkero by the form of kiw, but lie owos that seat at bottom to tho damnable fraud of returning boardrt. The trpth organized what wo thought was an lioneRt commission, and we be lieved wo would have an honest and fair settlement of the Louisiana and Florida olection troubles. [Voice : “We’ll have it yet.”] Mr. Saylor said: “Yes, we’ll have it. in 1881), but in order to bring it about the oity of Baltimore must go Deni ooratie on next Wodnosday, and men who have stood in the raukH in the past must not be ltd away by spooioiiH words int* the “Workingmen’s party.” Returning tho subject of tho Electoral Commi sion, Mr. Saylor said that tho commission cheated them, and while he had voico the people of this laud should hear of it, i, ho Haid, in favor of Mr. Haves’ South ern policy, but am not disposed to gush * , • . —. . \ ,, .j i uuua uuu jxiiiiunuu wrui iu iuu iluut ni toward Mr. Hayes or toward those South- tbo qUttrter aud nt tbe httif mile Hbo wed a eru Democrats who have gushed ho muoh toward him. Two yearn ago wo elected a Democratic Congress, who refused to vote a dollar of money for tho army unless the troopn were withdrawn from the Southern States. [Applause.] It was because of this aud because the Republican Senate wouldn’t agree that the Democratic House took the responsibility upon itself aud ad journed without voting a cent to tho army. The result was wo are back at Washington agaiu, and I suppose wo will have to give it to them, but no Federal bayonet is now doing police duty in tbo South. [Applause.] Jackson Returned Home.

On the back stretch Ten Broock again went up second, with Barricade and Algeriue last. They moved easily around the second mile, and Ambush had iucrensed his advantage to twelve lengths, when they passed tho stand and finished tho Feoond mile. THIRD AND FOURTH MILKS. At the first quarter of the third milo Ambush had increased tho distance be tween himself aud Ten Broeck twenty lengths, but at tho half mile Ten Broeok went forwurd aud reduced the advantage to six lengths.

The assembly now stands, 320 Republicans and 210 Conservatives or MacMabonites, It is now claimed that MacMaboit has §o far yielded as virtually to accept the resig. nations of the ministry, but it is very probable this will depend upon the eourso of tho Chambers.

New York Horald.l What kind of President would Mr. Tilden have made had he been peacefully inaugurated ? ’ Well,” said Mr. Tweed, musingly, “if Congress were called to meet on the 4th of March, and by constitutional require ment the President would have to send in his message on that day, Tilden would have it ready perhaps by tbe 4tb of April following, lie ulwuys puts off every thing." “But if he has so much procrastination in his habits how did Mr. Tilden become rich ?” ‘By tiring people out,” said Mr. Tweed. “He would just nit down and wear out the patienoe of anybody iu business as bo would iu politics. Ho was a railroad schemer, you know. Suppose you hud •,000 shares of stock in some company which he designed to capture, lie would have it all figured out so that you would get no dividends, aud after awlnle you would have to sell some of tbo stock. His poo), which ho had arranged to keep you out of your dividend, would then buy up your stook, und so, little by little, you would have to let that stock out until Til - den’s crowd got it all, aud after awhile your railroad would bo reorganized und consolidated. But that kind of patience does not apply to a President, who can only serve four years and must act on tho moment.” Still, Mr Tweed, it is generally con ceded that Tilden has shown ability.” How ?” asked Mr. Tweed, respectful ly. “I suppose you moan in his speeches and letters. When he became Governor, at a time when nobody else desired tho nomination, what kind of men did he bring forward to support him in this State? lie took a Republican, Robinson, and a squad of little fellows like Fair** child.” But ho carried tho nomination over many competitors at the Democratic National Convention?” “It was his wealth that did that,’’ Haid Mr. Tweed. “The politicians of tho Dew** ooratie party iu the South had no money, and could bo picked up by Tilden’s agents. That is whore he got his strength iu tho South, but when he captured the delega tions ho got no ability iuto them. The persons ho selected to manage his case iu Congress, excepting Mr. llewitt, who be longed to New York, wore incapable of saving him.

New York, October lnt, 1877.

THE GENUINE TUTT’S PILLS exert a peculiar influence on tho system. Their action is prompt, and their good effects are felt in a few hours. A quar tor of a century of study of tho Liver bos demonstrated that it exerts a greater in- finonce over tho system than any other or gan of tho body, and when diseased tbe entire organism is deranged. It iH speci ally for I ho healing of this vital organ , that I have spent so many years of toil, and having found tho remedy, which lias proved tho greatest boon ever furnished tho afflicted, shall they bo deprived of its benefits, and a vile imitation imposed up on (hem?
