Washington, November 20.—The
House was engaged nearly all day on
the Paris Exposition bill, which was
passed as it came from the committee,
with some trifling amendments, by a
vote of 139t$ 124.
Mr. Singleton, from the Committee
on Appropriations, again reported the
dcfiency bill with the clause appropri
ating $4,000 to defray the expenses of
President Hayes’ Louisiana Commis
sion, stricken out. The friends of
the bill repealing the resumption act,
expect to get through with the defi
ciency bill, and reach a vote on the
repeal bill to-morrow. Should til’s
be done an adjournment this week is
probable.
The Senate after a two horns ses*
sion, in which no important business
was transacted, went into Executive
Session and confirmed a number of
nominations. At three o’clock the
doors were again opened, and the
open session resumed.
Mr. Thurman moved to take up a
resolution in relation to the admission
of Mr. Butler as a Sciiatoi-’fiom South
Carolina, and to discharge the Com
mittee on Privileges and Elections
from the further consideration of the
I
or, has lately joined ti e army at the
scene of action. With the exception
of the Grand Duke Constantine, all
the male members of the imperial
family who have attained manhood
are now in active military service.
—Five Chinamen in a wagon were
entering Orovillc, Cal., a week ago,
when a man with a rifle met them
and demanded their money. The
driver started the horses and the
man fired, killing one, whose body
fell from the wagon. On the body
was $1,000 in money. The other
Chinamen rode into Orovillc.
—A petiiiied wasp nest has been
found near Eureka, Nev., by blasting
in the solid rock forty feet below the
surface of the ground. On breaking
it open, some cells, larvae, and two
perfectly formed wasps were found,
also petrified. The rock is a granite
sandstone of sedimentary formation
—The State of Texas has just pur
chased 1,400 acres ot land, with val
uahle buildings and improvements,
near Hampstead, for the State Uni
versity for Colored Youths. The
ju ice paid was $12,000. The inten
tion is to combine the State Univer
sity with the Agricultural and Me
chauical College, the same in effect
to be a branch of the college at Bryan
—How and where prairie dogs in
their villages, far away from rivers,
get water, was not found out until
recently, when Mr. F. Mercer,
frontiersman of experience, learned
by observation, that the dogs di
their own wells. Each village has
one with a concealed opening. He
knows of one two hundred feet deep,
with a circular j>ath or staircase lead
ing down to the water.
—The British school-boy has just
highly distinguished himself. The
Bishop of Hereford, while examining a
class in a public school, asked what an
average was. Several boys said that
they didn’t know, but at last one re
plied : “It is what a hen lays on. 1
The Bishop looked in amazement at
the boy, who then said that he had
obtained his information in his little
book of facts. The little book was sent
for, and, when it arrived, the bright
boy poiuted triumphantly at the fol
lowing sentence: “ The domestic hen
lays on an average fifty eggs each
year.”
—Judge Wheeler, of San Francisco,
has rendered a decision, in the case of
the demurrer filed by the Academy of
Sciences of that city, sustaining Ihe
trustees of the Lick estate, and virtu
ally upholding the proposed compro
mise of the other legatees with the son
of Mr. Lick. The estate is valued at
$3,300,000, and Judge Wheeler says
that upon a final hearing the court
will consider with due care the grounds
of the compromise, and will also pro
tect its decree the respective bene
ficiaries, as well as determine from
what fund or funds the amount neces
sary to effectuate the compromise shall
be drawn
Mr. Conkling opposed the motion,
and said- it had better bo taken up
some other time. Ho said that sev
eral Senators were absent who would
like to speak on the question. The
motion was unexpected; it was not
even known to the chairman of the
committee. , :
Mr. Thurman recited the circum
stances of the vacant scat on ti.e floor
of the Senate from South Carolina,
and said it was a question of the high
est privilege to take some notion up
on tho case. He said the Senate had
been in session but an hour or two
each day, and he had never known
the committees to do as much work
ns they lmd done this session, and it
was time, he believed, that some ac
tion should he taken. He also allu
ded to the vacant seat from Louisi
ana, and said it was due to that State
that some report should be made.
He said he had not intimated that he
would call for a vote to-day, but noth
ing would be lost by taking it up and
making it the unfinished business to
morrow. Mr. Wadleigh said the
committee had not had time to con
sider the case. They had been to
work on the Kellogg-Spofford case,
and had been diligently at work ; the
committee was not prepared to take
up this case, and he did not think the
Senate was prepared for it, and to do
so would be au injustice to one side
of this chamber who were not pre
pared to debate or discuss the ques
tion at this time. He felt it to be
his duty to object to the con
sideration of this cose at the present
time.
The Chair said it would then go
over upon a single objection. Mr.
Hoar claimed that this was not now
question of privilege only when the
ease first came up for the admission
of a Senator, or a member of any
body; but having once been taken
up and disposed of by reference to a
committee, it was not then a ques
tion of the highest privilege, and it
was not in the promise of any Sena
tor to demand that all other business
should be laid aside any time and
such case should be takcu up.
Mr. Thurman said it seemed to bo
a settled fact that no one here knew
anything about questions of order,
unless they had first served a term
or two in the other House; he did
not know any reason why the care
should not be considered a question
of high privilege, and be taken up and
disposed of. Mr. Mitchell claimed
that- the committee had nsed due dili
gence in considering these cases.
Mr. Saulsbury differed with Mr.
Mitchell, and said the committee had
had ample time to attend to both the
Louisiana case and the Sonth Caro
lina case. Without concluding the
discussion, Mr. McDonald moved
that the Senate adjourn. The Chair
laid before the Senate a communica
tion from tho Secretary of War
transmitting the report of the Chief
of Ordnance to the committee on mil
itary affairs.
[From the Boston Herald.]
W ashington, Nov. 14.—The com
mission which wassentto Sitting Bull
made an important discovery in the
fact that the warrior ha3 in his camp
a white prisoner capture! at the Cus
ter massacre. Before reaching Fort
Walsh rumors reached the commis
sion that Sitting Bull held some of
Custer’s men as prisoners, and after
the first conference one of the half-
breed interpreters employed by Gen.
Terry visited the camp, and, while
passing through, was accosted in En
glish by a person dressed and painted
as a chief, who said that his name was
Martin Ryan, who was a corporal in
Comjmny I, Seventh Cavalry, Col.
Ceough’s company, and had been
taken a prisoner at the battle of the
Little Big Horn with Custer. In
quiry apparently substantiated his!
assertion, and the following facts were
ascertained: Ryan’s fife had been
spared by Sitting Bull himself, who
adopted him into his own family.
Ryan made several attempts to es
cape, but being carefully guarded
was , unsuccessful, and on each occa
sion he was severely beaten. He lias
now apparently accepted the situa
tion, and Sitting Bull has made him
I a war chief and married Ryan to one
I his own daughters. Ryan has let his
j hair grow long in Indian fashion,
dressed as an Indian, and is known
by the Sioux as the White Chief.
Upon the retnrn of the commission
to St. Paul, Gen. Terry caused the
mnstcr rolls of Company I, Seventh !
Cavalry, to be examined, and ionnd
that Martin Ryan’s name is borne as
corporal, ami that lie was present for
duty when his command went into
that fatal action of June 25, 1876.
It was stated by the friendly Indians
that there are several ethers of Cuss
ter’s men prisoners in Sitting Bull’s
camp, but Ryan’s ease was the only
one which was verified. Sitting Bull
was asked the question direct by
Gen. Corbin if he took any' prisoners
of the Seventh Cavalry, and answered
flatly: “ That is none of your busi
ness.” Sitting Bull taked consider
ably about the battle with Custer,
and all he said fully confirms the
conclusions arrived at by Gen. Terry
last year when he examined the
ground just after the battle. He
said that at first he thongt Gen. Ter
ry’s whole army was upon him, and
and he had moved his women and
children and property about four
miles in retreat, when he received
information from his scouts that it
was only the Seventh Cavalry and
Long Hair (Custer,) and that they
were divided, and Reno had already
retreated. He says he then took
4,000 warriors, and went back and
moved down on Custer in a solid
