This is n serious piece of news, which comes signed by Gen. Francisco A. Escobar and Jefe de Eitadb, Me jar General. There is no news of any kind from or of Gecorai Kenjifo end his liberal gov ernment in Antionnie. This looks worse still. Washington, February 24,—The House has concurred in a Senate amendment to the tobacco bill, providing that a reduced tax on tobaooo ehall go into effect May 1879, and nos-concnrred in that amendment which elrlkes out the clausa abolishing the tax on matohee.

DIBIT WORE LOGAN pnt in his promised appeuanoe Thursday night, and the Illinois and other hammers in and out of effise in this city bad a big time end filled themselves chock fall of enthasiasm and mean whisky. There was a procession and a brass band and a lot of mounted marshals, and Logan and old Clapp, of the Republican, and Fred Douglass and another negro in a carriage drawn by four white horses, which greatly surprised me, as the gang seem to espe cially hate that color, and a’regiment or so of tag-rag and bobtail, mostly blaok, and B*LTiM0B*,Ftbrnary2l —;’Le funeral to crown all “CoL J* 0.

A large nnm-. geous and gallant, and altogether splen- ber of priests were preeent. as well as five Bishops, and thousands of people joined in the tribnte of respect paid to the deceased prelate. The Right Rever end Bishop Becker, of Wilmington, was the oelebrant of mass, anl the most Bsverend Archbishop Gibbons preacned tbe fnneral of the deceased. The re mains wero interred at Bannto Brae Ceme tery, where a large throng bad assembled. Washington, February 21.—J. B. For ney has been nominated Postmaster at Jacksonville, Alabama. Washington, February 24.—The Civil 8undry appropriation bill appropriating about $17,000,000, wa3 passed. In the House bills were' passed remov ing the political disabilities of G. H. Hill, Samael Bannon, John-A. Lovett and J. T. Rustic, of Virginia; James L. White, of Florida, and George Co3by, of California. A conference committeo on the tobacco bill, consisting of Tucker, of Virginia, Bobbins of North Carolina and Barchard, of Illinois, was appointed. A suggestion for a night session for the South Carolina contested election case was opposed by the Republicans, and at 5:20 p. m., the honse took recess till 10 o’clock to-morrow morning. Washington, February 24.—The Sen ate has passed tho army appropriation bill, retaining the clause allowing rail road companies to use their telegraph lines for commercial purposes. Tbe sec tions forbidding the use of troops at tbe polls were stricken oat. Tae bill to prevent the introduction of contagious or infectious diseases into the United Slates, and to establish a bureau of public health, was then taken np. Several amendments have been agreed to, and tbe bill is etiit being discusstd. The Senate refused to strike out of the army appropriation bill tbe clause in setted by tbe House allowing railroad companies to use tbeir telegraph lines for commercial purposes. A Democratic caucus was held this evening to take action on tho subject of the giving out of tbe public printing by contract to private parties, thus abolish ing tbe public printing office. A bill was, however, agreed on with tbe above named object, and will ba introduced in the House. Jewett, Secretary of the LouisianaRe publican Committee ia lSGd. was before the Potter committee to-day and closely examined by Genor&l Butler in reference to forged election certificates. He dis tinctly denied tfcat Blanchard was the forger, and said he believed it was Tbomas S. Kelley He admitted the letter to Senator Kellogg asking for ap pointments for himself, Richardson and other friends was written by him, and was asked no farther questions in refer ence to it. Bickford, a Washington correspondent of the Tribune, was called in reference to the report that Secretary Sherman had eaid tbe Potter committee intended pro ducing a false "Sherman letter.” The witness admitted sending the report to the Tribune, bat said if they wanted to verify it, they mast call Sherman him self. The committee then held a secret bps sjon, and decided to receive no further oral evidence, except that of Woolley and Solomon, if they cat be called. Woolley had sent an affidavit that he was too ill to attend. 11:45 P. m.—The Senate ia still in ses sion diKcnssing the bill to prevent conta gions diseases. ^London, February 24.—The Paris cor respondent of tbe Times says be ha* pre cise Information relative to tbe Egyp tian question. Neither Franca nor Eug- Iicd considers herself bound to guarantee tne ordinary conditions of assistance to Egypt as protection against the vioissi- lades to wbioh tbe is exposed, bnt they both consider that by a wise system of ex penditure end by reducing tbe rate of in terest by oao-half Egypt may succeed in making the two ends meet, and thus save herself from becoming a ronree of uneasiness to foreign governments. The same correspondent also says : It is affirmed that certain deputies of tho Left wish the Chamber to nominee a patllamentsry cemmission to investi gate the proceedings of the Prefeotnre of Police. It U said that the Cabinet will etroDgly oppose this an an encroachment on the fanedons of the Executive. JJSavannah, Ga., February 24—Tho Grand Division of the Sons of Temper ance of Georgia met here to-day. C. E. McGregor was elected Grand Worthy Pa triarch. Delegates reported the order jn a flourishing condition Pbovinoetown, Mass., February 24.— The schooner reported Friday IibS as ap parently in distress proves to ba the Geist Banker, from Boston for Richmond. In tho gale of Thnrsdsy night ehe had be come eo iced np that the crew could not hoist sail. Tbe mate was washed over board, .but rescued, and onoof the crew had hie feet frozen. A tug has gone to assist the schooner. Pittbcbo, Pa., February 24.—Captain Boy ton, who has undertaken to float from this city to New Orleans in bis life eaT- ing suit, started on his long voyage this morning. The weather was cold and stormy and the water at the freezing point'when he started. The river was running foil of ice. He cxpec’s to reach Rochester to-night, Steubenville Toes diferous and ferooions that the small boys turned pal* and slunk in terror at his ap proach. When I have stated that this distinguished eoldter bOised tbe procession, all is said that is neoeBsary to a fall understand ing of what tut immense and en tirely successful affair it was. Wnon Willard’s Hotel was reached old Clapp madea speech welcoming Logan, and & South Carolina negro made another of the same sort and then John assault ed the English grammar and language after his usual ferocious manner. Then the motley crew rnshed np stairs to shake his hand, greatly to the detriment of tho hotel carpets end farniture, and wound up by getting as drunk as their funds would warrant. It has cost the Illinois clerks a lot of money to welcome John, and if there is anything left over, my ad vice to them is to invest it in a new set of brains and a grammar for his nee. By tho way, Logan’s speech on this occasion reminds me very much of his wonderfully eloquent and epigrammatic effort in the Senate in 1870, when, the question of Georgia's re-admission into the UnioD being nnder discussion, he observed, among other things: ‘‘Mr. President— When a State a*kafor admission into this Union tbe first thing decided is that she is entitled or ehe is not. If not, there are reasons for it; if she is, it is because sho has complied with ell that is prece dent to her admission. If she has, then she is entitled to admission; if not. ehe i3 not. If she has, then Geor gia is entitled to admission; if not, ehe is not entitled to admission. If entitled to admission, how is she entitled to ad mis sion? If ehe is entitled to admission into this Union, 6be ia entitled to ad- tension upon a perfect equtlitv with the rest of ths States.” „ A SNUG SUM For theecr iron-clad times is what Gen eral Finley, of Florida, lately admitted to his seat in the Honse, will pocket. He has bean contesting B.sbse’a Beat da ring this Congress, but was only admit ted Thursday by a majority of nine. He will draw for his ten days service $10,000 and mileage, with $250 for stationery for Doth sessions. This 13 what I call com fortable, and must fully repay tbe Gene ral for bis long wait. Bisbeo. trade * hard fight, and hated to go about as badly as any man I ever saw. Wbat a pity there-ia-not »omfi_l*w .compelling him to disgorge the money be has drawn as salary for nearly two yeare. But there isn't, and so Und- Sam has to pay $20, 030 instead of $10,000 for tho repre sentation of this one district. Bisbee will contest Hull’s eeat in the next Con gress, but I am delighted to believe tbat be will have the door shut ia his face in tbe most cheerfully summary manner. H i is one of tho last of tha carpet-bag gers who have been fattening on our peo ple so many year?, and when the Peters- burg(Va.) District folks bounce Jorgen sen, the South will bs entirely rid of the breed. ASTRA EX.SION Talk is plentiful and cheap. You can hear anything you please about it tn tbe hotel lobbi-s and bar rooms, and the less a man really knows about it the more he pretends tojknow. I can’t arrive at any fixed opinion about it as yet. I think the Honse Democrats are of the mind just now to carry tbeir point about the repeal of the Federal S.ipeivisor law or forco an extra session, but they may change it next week. Whether they do or not, the law will not ba repealed by this Congress. The Senate mil certainly resist, and it will stand. I confess to sot being able to exactly see the statesmanship of this fight by the House for repeal, now, when tbe Senate is Ii id teal, and will not agree to it, unless, indeed, antx’ra session is regarded a* ebiolutely essential to ac complish something or other—I can’t clearly see whar. The idea is advanced that if we don’t organize tho House now we may not ba-ablo to do so next winter. Why, I do not understand, except on the hypothesis that some members may be bought by the Radical* batween March 4th and next December. But if any of them are for sale why can’t they be bought between tbe 4*.h of March and tbe extra session just as readily? It is not likely tbe extra session will be exiled nnttl May, at tho soonert, if there is one, and in these days of quick sales that wculd give ample time to make any num ber of purchase. MR. STEPHENS is justly indignant at the claims made by som- Georgia Radicals hero as to his politi cal tutnre in reference toState and national politics. He pronounces their utterances and prophecies in reference to himself— which I noted in a letter of recent date— as “moat atrocious!. false.” This is juBt what bis friends were anro would be his response to these preposte rous and insolent assumptions, making due allowances for the desperate condition of the recklres and unscrupulous political gamblers, who attempting to keep them selves afloat by means, such as these, ii seems almost incredible tbat they should attempt to bolster themselves up by such desperate devices and audacious mirrep resentations.

The rotten wooden pavements laid down ia many of tbe streets and filthy alleys aid to spread infection. The old municipal government, which has ceased to exist on account of the repudiatore’ de vice of repealing the oity charter in order to escape payment of debts, was utterly inefficient in its sanitary department; and although the government has fait power to create and enforoe sanitary reg ulations, it has done nothing so far. Grenada, Mississippi, is another town that became historic because of tbe dreadful ecourgo of 1878.

The Worldts correspondent writes that the local authorities are inert and paralyzed.
