Washington, June 14.—Cobb, of In diana, called up the report of the commit tee on public lands recommending concur rence in the senate amendments to the At lantic and Pacific land forfeiture bill. McCrea, of Arkansas, vigorously opposed tbe senate amendments, contending that notwithstanding the title of the bill, the adopting of the amendments would con vert the bill into a confirmatory net. The report of the committee was then agreed to and the amendments concurred Under the call of states a number of bills and resolutions were introduced and re ferred. Among them was the following: By Wheeler, of Alabama, a resolution re citing the resolution offered some days ago bv Kelley, directing the public printer to oinit from the permanent record the speech delivered by Wheeler upon Edward M. Stanton, stating that the resolution is si * framed ns to render it improbable that the house will adopt it, and asking for the appointment of a special committee to ex amine the speedi and expunge therefrom any unjust reflection upon Edwin M. Stanton or any expression in regard to Abraham Lincoln which is not commenda- tor> and eulogistic. The floor was then accorded to the Dis trict of Columbia committee. Bills were passed Incorporating the trus tees of the Yojmg Woman’s Christian Home, and prohibiting bookmaking of all that the bill waa favored by the administration had led him to ex pect a nearly unanimous vote of It* friends m that state, hat he had finally determined to call up the bill without knowing more on the subject than he did at first, except that as he was encouraged by the late cor respondence between the'president and Secretary Manning. If the motion is de feated, he said, It will be by the vote* of the democratic members from New York when he might reasonably expect them to be with the administration.

This person is also the master workmen of the Knights of Labor of Georgia. It appears ill the reports of the convention that this reverend gentleman made statements, cast ing serious reflections on the cotton manu- J foeturing enterprises of the place of his citizenship. So grave were some of his I charges that, we were prompted to inquire ■into the truth or falsity of them, and to I that end'addressed the several concerns ! accused for such intelligence respecting ! them as they thought lit to communicate, j For the responses made, we will | refer to another portion of Ibis issue, which l cannot but impress the render with the I jealous euro exercised in preserving the j good name of the manufacturing interests, I which have so materially added to the I prosperity and wealth of the south. How j much Mr. Meynardie may have been under ' the excitement of the occasion, when the | deplorable conditions of the laboring classes were uppermost in the minds of his | audience, and when the selfishness of em- I ployers were expected to be depleted, even | in extravagant terms, we will not attempt j to fancy; enough it is to say that there is J jus!, excuse for an immoderate mis- I health of the locality. Mr. Meynardie asserted that lie had walked until he was footsore, trying to get coffins to bury the dead in,—for children who worked in the mills. He may have done so, but there was nothing in the general circum stances of the families in which death took place, to oblige him to undergo such trials. We have not space to give more extend ed remarks on the allegations of this gen tleman, whose mission should be consis tent with his ministerial professions, and all statements of facts adhered to in their truthfulness. Thereeanbe no Justification in falsifying the moral standing of an in dustry. TREE-DESTROYING INSECTS. Ilr. Ilarr) FiluimU SuvKe*t* u Metlioil for Their Kx term I nut Ion. New York Times. A neighbor of mine has recently called my attention to some insects which are committing great depredations upon the elms in front of his house, and as others in the city may be suffering from the same pest, I venture to give a few brief notes upon its habit* anil life history, together with such hints for its destruction as are at my commend. The insect ill question belongs to the family Cocclrias, ami is a near n lation of the well known cochineal insect of commerce. The group of which it is a member is a section of the large or der llemiptera, or plant bugs, the species of which are, in some form or other, very destructive to vegetable life. The Aphides, chinchbugs, and the detestable bedbug are familiar examples of the order, which has numerous representatives in tlie United States, the various species running far Into the thousands. The C'oecidoe, to which our present form has to be referred, are distinguished by having wingless females, i.v of these being of very remarkable | stateine j curable nf facts these readily pro- j forms, resembling oak galls, pearls, and I nest ion were, ! occasionally the buds of plants.

Whether there was legal estop pel or not, it was very clear to Brown’s mind that there was an equitable estoppel. The government gave no notice that it would insist on a forfeiture, and the gov ernment accepted the road in sections as completed. The seventy-five uncompleted miles of the cascade grant, constituted the most important section of a road whose completion was of the utmost consequence to the people of the northwest. George desired to speak, but the hour being late, a suggestion was made that he defer his speech till to-morrow. A motion to go into executive session was defeated by the republicans, as was also a motion to adjourn. George, therefore, liegan his remarks, but had not proceeded far when another motion to go into executive session was RV.de which met the fate of the former motion. Several motions to adjourn then alternated with motions to go into execu tive :se,ssion, all failing. Edmunds suggested that senators who professed most anxiety fo have the for feiture bill passed seemed most, determined not to come to a vote on it. George said the criticism could not a’e ply to him. While proceeding' with his remarks, the senate being in great con fusion, George remarked that if the sen ators insisted on his proceeding with his remarks at this late hour he had a dozen i"-w books on his desk;, he thought it due ty him that the senators should listen to his remarks.

A DcKtrurtive Fire. Chicago, June 14.—Payne, Sorrin & Menzie’s mattress factory, at Twenty- fourth and Butler streets, was totally burned this afternoon, and it was reported at the fire alarm office that three of the female employes had lost their lives. The building is a three story one of flimsy ma terial and was filled with the most in- flamable material and the fire spread with rapidity. The blaze originated in the machinery. When the engines got there the employes, of whom there is a large number, lmd to flee for their lives. A number of girls were in a corner of the j building. Finding escape shut oil, they had to jump to save themselves. Two were ) badly hurt. It is greatly feared that a large , number of employes are in the ruins As, soon as the fire was under control, the fire- ' men commenced a search. place. Do they live in the old way? Tin say not.

There are many days tude of Augusta when bare feet is a UJftttor of choice; and no such instance* are au thenticated in extreme cold winter. The removal of the shoes inside of the mill is rather a question of comfort than of neces sity. The native white employes, it is said, have for their regular diet, pork, corn bread and greens; fresh meat being a luxury. To the north ern taste this might indicate 1 a pretty hard bill of fare, even presuming upon its truthfulness; but the writer of this can testify from his own southern experi ence that it i.s not so bad as it seems, or as the acc user intended to convey to Ins hear ers. riuch a diet is often one of choice, and when well cooked i.s palatable. Unwhole some food is not a necessary concomitant of a factory employe’s living. As in every community there are undoubtedly many who do not know how to enjoy their sur roundings to good advantage. In regard to wagon Mr. Meynardie stated “that the wages in the mills are, on the averag**, 50 cents to £1.50 a week for chil dren. Women are paid by the piece, and make about .50 cents a day. Men get from <10 to 75 cents a day, and machinists, w! arc paid the highest wages of any jinployes, receive from £1 to $2 a day.” The impression intended to he conveyed by the foregoing statement was Unit the Wiigc-s named were for ste^uiy einployinent, either by the day or by the week. The facts do not agree with the ailegatic>ns. The least w.'ige-s paid in any of the mills nary, remedies for inducing sleep are worse Ilian useless. The nervous relations betwiM it t he brum and Lne strunach are so intimate t hat disorder of the one organ is almost certain to affect the other. Excite ment, worry and anxiety, which have their s*at in the brain, interfere with the functions of tlie stoi.uuh.and in a likeiman- ncr anything that unduly taxes the power nf or irritates the stomach disorders the circulation ami nutrition of the brain. The sleep! jssuess often complained of by gouty persons is due u» the poisonous effect ofthe morbid material upon the nervous system. Kxcessivc smoking, tm) much alcohol, ten and coffee, often resorted to by overworked persons, are frequent causes of sleeplessness. In all these cases the cause* is removable, while the effect may be counteracted by appropriate treat ment. Nothing is more mischievous, how ever, than to continue the habits, and to have recourse to drugs to combat the ef fects. A flue amount of exercise tends to induce normal sleep, and such exercise need not be of a violent character.
