Ubueselv, Jnne 19.-“Tho elementary education bill, whioh the clerical* hiltei- ly opposed, haa passed the Senate by a Toto of 33 to 31* Washington, Jnne 19.—The Senate re mained in session all night. The Demo- rotb on the army bill to-day, and the night was passed in roll calls and at tempts to compel the attendance of ab sent Senators. ; , At an early hour this morning an ex- eited personal controversy took place be tweenConkling and Lunar, in whioh La mar orouounced a statement of Conkling’e * falsehood; one whioh he said he repell ed with all the unmitigated contempt that ha felt for the author of it. Cockling, in answering him, Bald that »the member from Mississippi imputed or intended to impute falsehood to him, nothing except the feot that this was the Smats would prevent his denouncing him a. a blackguard, coward and liar. Lamar replied that the Senator under stood him correctly. He begged pardon of the Senate for unparliamentary Un cage and said it was harsh. It was ae- rere. It was such as no good man would deserve and no brave man would wear. The discussion of the power of the Sen ate to Bend for absent Senators was re amed. The motion of Burnside to com- the attendance of absentees having Uen agreed to the Sergeant-at-Arnss, at 9.45 a. m., proceeded to the execution of the order. At 11:50 Mr. Withers made a parlia mentary inquiry. It was, whether if the Benate adjourn now, the legislative day of Touraday would commence at noon. The chair responded in the affirmative and, on motion of Mr. Withers, the Sen ate adjourned nnd reassembled at noon. The chair Btated that owing to the length of the previous eeaBion the Journ al was not completely made up and sug gested that the reading thereof be dis pensed with. ..... Hr. Cootliog objected and insisted on the observance of the rule,which provides that the first business is the reading of the journal. Davis, of West Virginia—I take it— Conkling (interrupting)—I object to all debate. . Too Chair said the reading of the j our- nal could not be dispensed with except by unanimous consent. At 1:30 the Republicans aro engaged in parliamentary tactics to prevent action of all kinds. la the House McMahon (Ohio) sub mitted a confer?n-e report upon tno ju dicial expenses bill, (under the report Section 52 of the bill will prohibit read ing of any contract or incurring of any liability under any of the provisions of title 26 of RrviVd Statutes, authorizing the appointment or payment of general or special deputy marshals for services in connection with elections or on eleo- ttonday.) The reports ia under discus sion. Hr. Monroe, of Ohio, one of the con ferees on the pirt of the Hon9e, explained the reason of his opposition to the report and in answer to Cox expressed his in tention to va’.o against it. Ur. Cox himself intimated that he would do the same, but for a different reason. Then .Garfield made a strong apeeeb, laying down the Republican pot- ioy on the questions, arguing that the bill was a nullification of law—that it placed the President in an attitude where he must either observe his oath and exe cute the laws, and thereby snbjeot him self to impeachment, or must violate bis oath and oonsoienoe. Ho President would allow himself to be put in snoh an attUadc, and therefore, said he, in oon- olnsion, “Farewell to all prospects of home. TFe stay ” This declaration was greeted with sp- plausa on the Republican side. Springer replied to Garfield, and de clared f the President vetoed this bill he would pnt bimaelC in the attitude of de fying the majority in Congress, and da- maadiog of that mejority to do what was wrong They would no: do it. Navet! (Jeering remarks on the Rspntl o*n side of' whuff Never r) MsHanonsmtaiaed the report against tbs argument of Gaifirld, and provoked derisive jeers of the Republicans by allu sion to the President a» “Jit* Fraudu- Mey." , S.vowhill, Mo., June 19.—The jury in the Duer eisocame into conrt at 9:15 this morning with a verdict of guilty of muriLr, with recommendation to the nercy of the court. The judge inform ed the foreman that tho verdiot most b» formal and the reply must not be guilty of murder, but guilty of manslaughter, Iho foreman’s aoaver was made, but Wore the verdict was rooorded, . Mr. Crufield, counsel for defense,demanded a poll of the jury. When the name of the eigth juror, Elward F. Causey, was called, he an swered, "not guilty.” His reply caused »temation in the oonrt and appeared to uord relief to many in the coart house. The judge then eaid as the jury had ?ot agreed they would have to retire for iurther consideration. . M ten minutes after eleven o’clock the W again came into conrr, and in reply to the naual question answered “not pnlty of murder, bat guilty of man- iiinghter." The sheriff took charge of “• prisoner, and the conrt took a recess DDtil two o’clock.

London, Jnne 19.—The British Steam er Thessaly, from Havre, bonnd to Bom bay, has been wrecked one hundred miles from Aden. No lives were lost. Washington, Jnne 19.—In the Senate the fillibustering by the Republicans was continued until after 2 o’clock, when the chair eaid that after the expiration of the morning hour, he should haveancounc -d the resumption of the consideration of tho army appropriation bill; and did so now, Mr. Carpenter, of Wisconsin, being en titled to the floor. Mr. Carpenter pro seeded to explain why the Republicans resorted to parliamentary tacticj last night He eaid the entire day was ocu snmed, not in debate on the army hi 1, in tne delivery of campaign speeches and then after G o’clock the Ireinbcrats ins'ist* ed on a vote upon the bill and catting off further debate..If now the Democrats would agree to adjourn, Re had no donbt the vote could be reached tomorrow. HA then added with tho consent of the Be-' publicans generally that- no attempt would be made to delay the proceedings to-morrow, beyond the limits of proper debate. , After farther retharks by Mr. Withers and Conkling, in whioh the former said there was no time yesterday when be would, not have consented to such an ar rangement as that now suggested. Hr. Carpenter’s proposal was agreed to; and on motion cf Mr. Thurman the Senate ad jearned. In the House discussion was closed by a speech from Mr. McMahon, after which a vote was taken and tho conference re- Dort edopted by a strict party vote of 102 to 70. The Honse then took up the bill to provide for the exchange of the trade dollar for legal tender silver dollars, and .after speeches by Messrs. Cox and Ste phens, adopted the amendment providing that the trade dollars recoined under this act shall not be coanted as a part of tho coinago of silver authorized by the act of February 28th, 1678. -The bill was then passed witbont division, and the House adjourned London, June 19.—The leading article in the Times to-day, taking for its tixt the speech made by Sir Stafford North- cote at a banquet last night,says there are indications on all sides cf the approach of a great electoral struggle. Tho momen tous questions of foreign policy whioh have oocupied the mind or the country daring the paBt few years aro rapidly approaching eolation for good or harm. When the time comes for tho Eoglieh peo ple to Bay how her ministers have dis charged their trust, they will not fail to bear in mind the difficulties the govern ment have bad to encounter, as vjell as their method of dealing with them. It is premature, as the chancellor of the exchequer intimated, to; form a final judgment now on tne whole case, but it is also evident from bia epeecb, that the Ministry feel that the moment for pro nouncing each judgment is not far off. The article atio refers to tho recent Al exandrian dispatch which stated that the French Consul General was abont to pro ceed to the palace end announce that the French government bad decided to insist upon the deposition of the Khedive, and eays it is cot to be supposed that the French government would hava taken stops of such importance without the consent or acquiescence of oar own gov eminent, and if it has been taken at all, we have entered upon a new and vary critical stage of the Egyptian question. Bsblin, Jane 19.—In the Reichstag to-day Heir Dilbrouok presented and filed an interpellation io regard to the gov ernment discontinuing the coinago or diver. He said it was neoessary to clear ly define tae situation and particularly, as in the debates of the British Parliament, the question whether Germany intended to modify the law fixing the gold stand ard, whioh had been treated as an open ore. Prince Bismarok replied that he Idid not koo<* -he views cf the Federal Gov ernment, but Do bimooit did not think it expedient nonPoeBaarily to oommit httn- eelico an expreauo i ol opinion upon a question of snoh moment. He thought the interpellations had not been well considered bat the treating mat ter from a bnsiness point of view he could assure the House that neither the feder al council nor Prussian ministry, had mooted the question of the modiScstion of the gold standard. Too law suspend ing silver sales was < be measure of I’lpi-- dieney adopted, p»vimg an increase of value. Any doubt respecting the sta bility of ths German coiuage legislation, was wholly un-arranted. Hehad never discussed the question with the minister of finanfle. The gentleman from whom Lord'Odo Bussell, the British Ambassa dor,bad derived bis inforroaiion that “the German government is progressing to introdneo and adopt a doable eteu- dard m is France, must have been beta ter informed than the Imperial Govern* ment. The President of the Imperial. Bmk, addressing tho House, said the government had already lost by its sales of silver 92 J million maiks. Herr Bam berger stated that the deputies who in troduced the interpellation (ho was one) had done so because of tne report of Lord O Jo Russell. The President of the Imperial Bank replied that Lord Bassell was not informed as to the intentions of the government. Nsw Tons, Jnne 19.—The inqnost in the Hall murder oase began to-day with A erowded Court.

MoBtiiX, Jane 19.—Daniel Geary, one of the oldest citizens of Mobile, wae aroused by a burglar in hie room at 2 o’clock this morning and fired at him twice with a double-barreled gun.

VzasAiLLms, Jane 19.—The eongress of the Senate and Chamber of Deputies Found Gcidtt.—After seven days’ tmi uud tho Herculean effort, of a pow erful array of connsel for tbedefenBe, the anforinnate Samuel H. Hill haB been adjudged guilty of mnrder, with the re oommendation that he be eent to the penitentiary for life. This verdiot does not anrprise ns. True, a man should be justified for punishing unto death the base invader and destroyer of bis domes tic peace and happiness. But it was clearly shown by the evidenoe in this oase that the wife was a wanton, fre quenting the lowest dene cf infamy, dressed in men’* apparel, and in the company of lewd fellows.. Moreover, that she even threw off the panoply ef her hnmand’s name, and took a fancy soubriquet. tio attempt was even made to assert her innocence of the direst sin that can stain the life of man or woman. Indeed, even the husband admitted it, whilst clinging still with mandlin tenderness to the woman who had dishonored him. ■Vhat excuse, then, can be urged for the rheddieg of blood, not in behalf of in- jared innocence,but established guilt. Be- treeu tho two oases the line is a, well de fined as darkness from light, and the dis tinction as wide-as ths poles are asunder. We clip the following from the Atlanta Pott: t .- . -,.j „ V 7 At 8:25 f. ii. Jadga Hilly er began to deliver bis charge,' whioh was a wail pro- pared end carefully written exposition of the law. The oonrt: than topi a reoe»a of ten minutes at the expiration of whioh time the jury returned and the foreman an jnoimeed that they were wlihin two votes of a verdict, and requested the Judge to read over again oartam paragraphs in the obarge. r ..... Tne snspenso was only of short dura tion. The spectators waited with bated breath for the verdiot whioh . they knew was oomiog, for the charge of the oonrt had left little donbt bb to wbht the re sult must be. - --U it.:. At forty minntoa to midnight the jury returned with the following verdiot: ‘We, the jnry, find the prisoner guilty of murder and recommend that he be pun ished by confinement in the penitentia ry for life:” The prisoner received the verdiot in ei- lent resignation. Mrs. Hill sat as it transfixed, her bead leaning on her hus band’d bosom, his arm enoircliog her waist. ' The opinions of the people on the ver diot are variously expressed. Some de nounce it in strong terms wnile others commend it as strongly. Some say that the verdict will have the effect of giving a lioeneo for the destroyer to violate the tacoiity of home, and to invade without restraint tbe purity of any household. Others say that the safety of human life and tbe preservation of tbo law deman ded this verdiot. There will bs a motion for a new trial promptly made by the connsel for tho de fense, and tbe case, should such newtrial be refused, taken on to - tho Supreme Conrt. It ia ouo involving a very im portant principle, and one that needs the most complete eittlementat the hands of that court. Human Bones Uneabthxd.—Atlanta Dispatch: This morning the workmen engaged in making tbe excavation tor Governor Brown’s new block came upon lot of bones, which proved to be those of hnmana. There were many specula tions by tbe multitude who gathered around them all tho morning as to whose bones they were and how they camo there. The most reasonable supposition is that they are probably ths remains of some soldiers buried there daring the war. The bones were of two men, the smaller giving every evidenoe of haying died from or daring tbe amputation of tbo left arm neftr tne shoulder. The remains can be seen at Dr. Westmoreland’s office. A pair of shoo heels was the only part of tbe paraphernalia that had stood the test of time and the mould of the grave. The same paper says: Ail the regU. mentd of late stationed in.Atlanta have been commanded by brevet Major-Gen erals; the Second Infantry by General Frank Wheaton, the Eighteenth Infan try by General Thomas H. Roger, the Fifth Artillery by General Henry J. Hunt, and the Thirteenth Infantry last year by General P. R. do Trobriand (since retired), and this year by General John B. Brooke, late Lieutenant-Colonel of the Third Infantry. Sudden Death.—Dispatch: Mr. Jo seph Douglass, clerk of Colonel Echols, the paymaster of the Fifth Artillery, died suddenly in his room at eleven o’clock last night. His disease was agreed to be an' affection, o! tha heart. He <va3 well and favorably known in At lanta, and not a few will experience a deep regret at his death. His remains will bo interred ia tte-National Cemetery at Marietta. Plucky LitTi/s Bor.'—Bailiff S. M. WatsoD, of Hart county, was carrying a negro captive to Hartwell last week.

Davenport Jackson Eiq., counsel for the defendants, demurred to the indict ment npon a cumber of grounds. Fust, Because the indlotment did not allege that the proceeding in whioh the alleged false oath was taken wae a “judicial tribunal.” Secondly, Because the in* diotment failed to allege that a lawful oath was administered to tha defend ants. nor did it appear upon tha faoa of the indictment that the oath adminUUrei was a lawful oath. Thirdly, Because there was no charge in the indlotment that the person who administered the oath had the authority by law to doeo. Fourthly, Because there waa a misjoinder of offenders and offenses. The demurrer was sustained by the Oonrt and the in diotment quashed, the Court basing iU deoision upon the omission ia tho Indiet- ment of the allegation that the oath ad ministered waa a lawful one, and second ly because of the misjoinder of offenders and offenses. Doubtless Sambo, instigated by bis whito Radical aaanipnlatora or otherwise, will “try it again.” KtWABDS TO THOSE P20TXCTIEO Dcmd Beutss—The Chronicle and Constitution- alist contains a long array of the names of those drivers to whom were awarded prizsa for proper treatment of their stock for the past year. Those who owned teams were complimented in this manner, and those who did not own the horseB they drove also* The following prizes were presented for discontinuing the' nse of the check rein for carriage horses: Driver for Mrs. E. Thomas, driver for Mm. Alfred Ba ker, driver for Mn. Frank 2L Miller, dri ver for Mrs. Joseph B. Camming, driver for MrB. J. P. King, each $1. At a meeting after the distribution of prizes, the thanks of tha soeiety were re turned to thp judges and their friends for the care and attention given to the socie ty's request. A Genxbous Oms.—The Americns Recorder says : Superintendent W. G. Baonl, of the S. W. B. R., has written to Miss Mary C. Cranberry, Secretary of the Ladies’ Me morial Association, to tbe effect that if she will notify him of the time of the removal of the Oonfedefate dead from Andersonville he will furnish the neces sary transportation free of eharge, and will also famish free passes to those hav ing the matter in charge. This is very generonB on the part of the railroad, and on behalf of the ladies we return thanks for their kindness. There are many who assume to say that the “old Central” Is a very Naziretb in every sense of the word. Bat here is tbe proof that a good thing oan come ont of Nazareth. It shows, too, that Mr. Wadley has no prejudice against onr fair and flourishing sister city, and, now that he la able, intends to do her ample justice. The Wilcox Gibl—Hxbe is'Youb Change, Lads.—The Recorder says: Dr. Bagley says James Owens, of Wiloox county, has a eheep ranohe and four girls. The girls do the shearing, one of whom the dootor timed, with the following re sult : thirty head sheared in thirty-nine minntss and fifty-five seconds. Next pre clnot in order. And Only Listen.—Americas Record er: Jeese Lott,-of Ccffee county, has jnst sold thirty thousand pounds of wool. How would yon like tp.be Lott’s wife? A Noble Roman,—Our indefatigable State School Commissioner, G. J. Orr, L. L. D., is doing a noble work in the canse of education in almost every county in the State, The Athens Watchman says: On Friday night last Hon. H. J. Orr, Stale School Commissioner, delivered an admirable address at Denpree Hal), to a very respectable andience of our citizens, on the snbjcct of onr common school system, the adoption of the Mof fett bell pnnch and the passage of a dog law. He made a strong, masterly argu* ment in favor of the adoption of a system of pablio schools, and was listened to with marked attention. We Thought it was a Mistake.—The Bame- paper says: It is very provoking to have glaring mistakes creep into a newspaper when all care is taken to pre vent them. This was the case with ns last week, when a friend called our atten tion to the fact that we had published an item in the TFafekman stating that Hon. A. B. Jackson, of .Oconee oonnty, bad harvested 106 bushels of wheat from one acre of land. It should have been print- ed oatB instead of whoat. Mr. J. informs us, however, that he did harvest forty- seven bushels and three pecks of wheat from one sere. This we consider a fine yield iteelF, bat 106 bushels is unreason able. The pablio will bo glad to learn of the rapid recovery of Mrs. Emory Speer, who has been critically ilL Beeach of Pbomise.—Tho Crawford- villa Democrat says a dusky damsel, of this county, who was lately deserted by her truant lover, a few days ago ap proached one of onr leading attorneys and wanted him to sno “dat feller for promisin’ de breeches.” We spppose tbe case will be brought, that tbo prosecu ting attorney will be prepared with an eloquent appeal to tbe jary for summary damages to pnnish that fickle swam. A Co emotion.—The Butler Herald announces that tbe statement that seven oonvicts escaped some two weeks sinoe, from the camp of Colonel C. B. Howard, ia a mistake. Only four got away, one white man and three negroes, one of whom bus been osptared, and it is thought the others soon will be, as thtlr larking places are known. The Suioidb Mania.—Enquirer-Sun: What ate the people coming to? Yes terday reports of attempts atsaioide were rife, and investigation proved that in three cases they were correct. Commit ting snioide has become a mania, and the sooner the cnee who wish thus to “eolvo the great mystery” are allowed to do it, the better. When they have convinced themselves that this lifo is a failure, and wish to leave it they have reached a point where tbe world can do very well without them. Not having any desire to live for themselves or any one else, of oouree they are of no ser vice. It is murdsr in tbe eyes of God, and none commit the deed in ignoranoe ot this Divine law. Full well they know of the penalty inflicted, yet defy all and make tbe leap. Saicide is the effect of example, and in onropioion the parties are not momentarily insane, as some be lieve. Books tell us of a strange occur rence in a Mexican army. The regiment was quartered near an old cathedra), long sinoe abmdontd, and in this bnilding tbe army stores were placed. There were no windows, and tbe door binge3 were rusty acd insecure, so it wa3 necessary for a guard to be placed -therin. one of the beams a rope waa hanging in which was ft noose, and it was said . here come noted priest had taken his life. The next morning after the guard had beeh placed there his body was found hanging to the rope. A brave determined man took the place the next time, and morning found him where his esmpan ion had perished.- This created consid erable excitement in camp, and the snr- rounding country wae searched for the enemy, who, it was supposed, had hung the meD. A third was found as dead as the-former two were, A daring Major tried tho: watch, and was ent down .next morning in-an almost lifeless condition. Ha related his experience, which was, that being alone ho became depressed in spirit by thoughts of tho fates of his sol diere. Some 'irresistible power seemed to draw him to the rope, which he tried to keep away from. Towards morning he could resist no longe-, and naturally wentand put hia neck in the noose. But for his determination in resisting eolong he,-too, would hava perished. It was the effect of example. Prompt action.

It would always be interesting to bin),and might be of practical value here after. We should judge that many of the Chinese practices would strike the General with favor. For example, it a man don’t talk right in that oonntry they don’t bother themselves to, oonrt martial or bnlldoxe Urn, bat ont off his head dry eo.

' Life at the Springs aad Where strati We Go? Mosers Editors—The heated term is npon ns and there seems to be at the present day a universal desire pervading onr Southern people to deesrt the quietness of the home circle for the more animated and attractive soenes at watering place*. This desire does i ot always ariso from a thirst for amuse ments, ner from Uio more elevated metric of seeking health, but,oftentimes e, from the sheer restlessness that has tok<u possession of mmy. They want a chorgj and must have it. They are perfectly in different as to what direction they take; whether it ia up or down the country. Any where- will do so it is away from home. There are many more who would gladly Join this restless army if they could oontrol cir- enmstanoes and no donbt many would be greatly benefited by each • coarse. The humdrum of life wean ont the energies and overtaxing of the twain brings'many a man to a premature grsve. The bourn of relax ation end tho pleasures of social intercourse tone np the drooping energies, impart nsw life and open up new avenues whera’n the overtaxed mind oan wander and gather strength for future conflicts. This -desire, therefore, is not hnrtfnl to onr anooess in life if only guarded by prudonce and oontrol- ed by common sense. The N!naH«ti And German, from tho foot of their love for festivals and holidays which eo agreeably interrupt the duties of every day life, are more robust in constitution, with greater powers of endurance either in physical or mental.labor, than we Ameri cans One of the least pleasing effects of onr modem civilization is the character and the necessity of inoessant labor to k«ep np with the world. There is to«day more dis sipation and less enjoyment than in the- days of onr fathers. Life at the Springs his He sunshine and its shadows. Whan properly entered into and presented with the higher motives that should govern rational beings, it becomes a fountain of blessings, a spring of jov to' every participant All tho regal convention* alitiea and restraints of society are thrown off and when once introduced, yon' are ad* milted without question into all circles of mirth and good fellowship. Manly conduct throw open to you every door and unlook every heart so that although a stranger to- day. you will feel to-morrow like yon had been the recipient of their friendship for years agone. Home of the strongest friend ships have arises by an accidental meeting at the springs. Tho easy-going, life at the springs blends all ranks In one waim, gene rous flow of joy and kindness. This arises from the fact that onr thoughts are direoied into the same channel and onr friendly sym pathies more aroused. We feel more sensi bly tbe charm of each others society, be* oaose wo are dependent npon each other lor enjoymert. Many a desponding heart has been lifted np ont its gloom and sadness into a higher apportion of life and its da ties by coining in oentaot with tbe more hopefnl and tbe more experienced in the ways of the world. Tim recluse who has been wooed or foroed~ by ciroomstanocB away from his parent 'under the inspiration of life at the springe, sallies forth and his thoughts and feelings dissipate themselves over the sunny landsoape and he “lives abroad and every where.” The very sur roundings influence ns to abandon onrselves to mirth and good fellowship aud enables ns more keenly and int.lligently to appreciate the pleasures of the sooial circle. This pictnre can only, bo completed by ths addition of the back grennd. As I admitted, life at the springs is not all sunshine While it cultriateB and enlarges social enjoyments and widenB the stream of our friendships, it also famishes opportunities and exercises whioh destroys happiness and tonga shame and disgrace. Eden was not without its ser pent, nor is any earthly enjoyment without its tomptation. . This unrestrained eooial jn- terconile at tho springs opens the door for the libertine and the gambler. With the most factuating manners and elegant style, they ingratiate tbemselvea into the confi dence and fellowship of the nnwary. Many a pore woman, because of the abandon man nerism of the springs, suffers advances as well as language, which ebe would indignant ly spurn in her own home. Many married ladies oven whose head should rest on no other breast bat that of her husbands, in the exoltement cf the waltz will anffer other arms to encircle her body and suffer herself to bo pressed to the bosom of a man whom she wonld not recognizs npon the etreet in her own city homo. Many an unsuspecting youog man off on his first visit to the springs is decoyed into the gambling hell and be comes an easy prey to the sharpers who smile and fawn around him. “ Evil com- munications corrupt good manners,” is jnst as truo to-day as when the inspired Apostle penned it. Those sre a few of the evils that atten l • life at the springs.” The gosiip and tbe tale-bearer are seemingly the nec essary evils of snob a life. They are the most industrious of all classes as well as tbs most ubiquitous of all peisous. Rut notwithstanding aU these difficulties, it is right to avail onrselves of tbe mmy wonderful advantages which a kind Provi dence has placed within onr reach for tbe recovery of worn and tired nature. Homo one has said that nature is but the outer garment of tb9 Great Healer, and if a poor woman who had spent alt her fortune with physician8 and conld not be healed, pressed through tho crowd and tonohed but ths hem of the Master's garment and was relieved from her eighteen years of suffering, surely it is bnt right that we shon’d seek the heal ing streams whioh oome freth iadened from God's own brewry.

Both Senate and Honse yesterday were a good deal warmer than the weather, Indeed, the meteorological temperature, if it corresponded with that in Macon should have suggested keeping cool— which neither Honse seemed able to do. Tbe Senate went into a night beet ion Wed nesday ovening in order to compel the passage of tbe army bill. The majority were willing to adjourn if the minority would give them any assurance of com ing to a vote on tha bill within a reason able time in the future; bnt this the mi nority refused to do. Their policy was to defeat the bill by filibustering, plain and simple. Early on Wednesday evening, Conkling made an assault on Mr. Lamar, of Mis sissippi, not reported in tbe telegrams, which most have been exceedingly gross, for Lsmdr'replied by pronouncing it a falsehood, which be repelled with all the unmitigated contempt he felt for its au thor. Conkling rejoiced by declaring Lamar a blackguard, ooward and liar. To whioh Lamar responded that the Senator understood him. He (Lamar) had used harsh and severe, language snoh as -no good man wonld deserve, and no brave man wonld wear. This is fighting talk, and must have been oalled forth by an insult on the part of Conkling of an extraordinary character. Lamar is not quarrelsome, and does not lightly lose temper. On tha oontrary we should ’seleot him as a man of unusual' Self-command. A longer account of this affair,' exospt the beginning of it, will be found in the morning telegrams., The Senate continued in session all night, effecting nothing, until ten min utes to twelve on Thursday, when it ad journed to commsnoe the regular Thurs day’s session at 12 k When it met again, the Secretary had not prepared the minntea of the proceed- ceeding day, and to the motion to dis pense with their reading, Conkling ob jected, and under the rnles ono objection was fatal. Conkling objected also to all debate on the sitnatioirand so the major ity was held in a string—for nothing was in order except motions to adjourn. And this was the situation of affair in the Sen ate np to half past one o’clock p. m. yesterday. Tho sequel mast be found in tbe night telegrams. Meantime the House had been wrest ling Over the Conference Committee’s re port on the judioiol expenses bill.

Deputy Marshals and Su pervisors to bnlldoze eleotions, under the direction of tha Administration and heBsdiosI National Executive Commit tee. Something under a million dollars were' expended in this business in 1876. and one can easily comprehend that tbe question of a million dollars to be used in controlling the eleotions is an impor tant one to tbs Radical brotherhood. A fierce debate on this provision of the bill followed, in which there was mnoh bad hnmor on both sides, and both expressed tbe datermination to sit the controversy ont, if it takes all summer.

As soon as the erbwd reached the Park the majority repaired at once to the danc ing platform, and this spacious stand waa literally jammed with one of the merriest, happiest pirti>-3 we bavs ever seen. Dancing was kept np without intermis-' sion throughout the day, and never have we seen tbe gay waltz or the exhilarating quadrille more thoroughly enjoyed. Kessler's Orchestra played its best al most incessantly thronghont thfe day. Those of the crowd’not enjoying the dance strolled abont- the gttmn&s and amused themselves' with croquet, in the swinge, and in other ways as Jthe occa sion suggested.

The amount of damages are estimated at between fivo and seven thousand dollars. This is only rumor, howev ir, and the terms of the verdiot oan only be known when read in conrt this morning.
