Representative Holman, of Indiana,
}>cing called for, made some remarks.
He alluded to the fact that during the
last Congress the appropriatons for
rivers and harbors exceeded a little over-
$5,000,000. Ho said it was currently re
ported tliat an effort would be made to
reduce them at this session to $3,000,000.
What was to be tlie policy of Congress
on the subject of cheap transportion was,
a matter of great moment, but if there
was any such reduction as had been re
ported it would uot affect cheap trans
portation, a very large part of the ap
propriations usually being for local ob
jects. These might, in tho reduction, bo
dispensed with and tho appropriations
applied to a few specific objects, where
entire States arc concerned, and where
tho money would bo spent for tho benefit

his State bos long been committed to
cheap transportation, and would endorse
any and every proposition having that
object in view. Ho was anxious that this
meeting should pledge itself to support
only sucli measures of Die Committee on
Railways and Canals as shall representall
the interests of tho country—not only the
James river and Kanawa canal, but all
other projects for cheap transportation.
Representative Hnrlbut, of Illinois, a
member of the Committee on Railways
and Canals, said he came lure to receive
information. There were before that
committee projects involving an expend
iture of $130,000,000. All of them hod
their friends. AVliile many of these
projects were local or sectional -some of
them were national. Although in the
section where he lived there wa3 no im
mediate connection with tiie Missis tippi
river, yet tliat river was important to
tho agricultural interest of the State at
large. He looked on tho Mississippi
river as did Sir. Calhoun, namely, as an
inland sea, which camo under the head
of such improvements as those for which
Congress might make appropriations;
and therefore he was in favor of the Fort
St. Philip canal. The report of the en
gineers on this subject would soon be
furnished to the committee. There
were other subjects to facilitate com
merce probably as important to the
country as this was, and which
might or migbtnotrecelvo consideration.
The improvement of tlio great lakes and
the means of rendering navigation r.occ-3i-
blo to the sea wero secured to none of the
other sections proposed for cheap trans
portation, which included the dispensing
of the St. Clair flats tand the Niagara
canal. Then there was also before the
committee a project for a canal across
New York so as to divert to the canal the
Western produce which now sought an
outlet through tho St. Lawrence river.
Another scliemo was tho opening of the
Tennesseo river, through various chan-
| vels, to afford some outlet to the Atlantic
1 no *,s to reach Georgia or South Carolina,
'/'iiusvas also a subject of enquiry for tho
CO i.niniiAce. who wero waiting for the
r opoi*botj£he engineer. There wero other
schcmC 8 df like nature and importance.
The cry' in tho A Vest was for somo
immediate’ OOftMl on the part of Congress
to relieve i^em /com engagement from
tho overflow of the productions of tho
Mississippi valley transportation rates,
as would enable the United States to suc
cessfully compete in the European mar
kets with tho wheat of the Slock Sea and
tho Mediterranean. A proposition to con
struct a double track from some point on
the Hudson river (N. Tj to Council
Bluffs, with branches to St. Loin, nnil
Chicago, had boon made, but tho projec
tors require the United States to guaran
tee the payment of interest on a certain
portion of their bonds. He hoped in tlio
course of a week to prepare a bill, cm-
bodying in it a pledge of tho credit of
fit*, United States, with such guards and
-nsranties as would prevent tho occur
rence of such impositions by tho railroads
as those to which they were now subject.
Kepi tentative Lutrell, of California.
said ho was aware there was a growing
and a well founded complaint ngainst
tho railroads. This had been growing
for ten or eleven years, and bad extended
to other States. A sub-committee bad
reported to tlio General Committed a biU
which would bo considered by them, pro-
viding for a board with a view to reduce
the exorbitant rates now charged by rail-
roads, no thought tho committee would
endorso this bill and report it next week.
He was satisfied Congress could act upon
this subject under tho power to regulato
commerce between the States, and gave
his viows in favor of a freight railroad
1,300 miles in length, showing the great
advantages which would result both to
the AVestem producer and Eastern con
sumer, while the road itself would bo a
source of great profit. He could prove
that with an enterprise of this char
acter there would be such a reduction
in favor of cheap and speedy traus-
portatiou. And the 'most lie could do
Was to vote for it. He desired tho
appointment of a committee of umo to
make such suggestions to the Committee
on Railways and Canals as would express
tho views of this meeting m behalf of
the general interests of agriculture, and
that they would all voto for such meas
ures as would accomplish the. object de
sired. Tho farmers of California are
almost bankrupted by freight, shipping,
railroad and sack rings. The farmers of
his State were tho slaves of monopoly..
Representative Hereford, of AYest A lr-
ginia, said that it was propped to rotj,
$20,000,000 for the navy and $2G,000,000
or *27,000,000 for the army in time of
peace, but very little money was appro
priated for the AYest. Instead of voting
to reduco he should voto to increase ap
propriations for the rivers and harbors.
Representative McKee, of Mississippi,
said that while there was much talk
about retrenchment, they all fcnew that
a good ileal of money would be spent, for
many members of Congress bad bills
prepared for court-houses, custom
houses and post-offices in their respec tive
localities, and they would resort to log
rolling to pass them. There was one ex
penditure, however, which could J>e
stopped, and that was tho post-office
building. New York, opposite tho Aster
House. That ono building would co*t
more than five times as much as would
bo required to comelete the Fort &t.
Philip canal, so that tho commerce of
the Mississippi could reach the sea. He
would say, iu the words of another, ‘‘l<et
us place the money where it would do
the most good.” [Laughtor.j

THE TEXAS QUESTION,
It is tlio general opinion among Re
publican Congressmen that it will be
very impolitic for tho Administration
to sustain the Republicans of Texas in
their efforts to nullify the result of the
late election in that State, more especially
as they recognized its validity by taking
a part in it. The Democratic majority in
tho State is overwhelming. _ The Demo
cratic leaders send word hero that they
are resolved to install iri their offices
those who were elected, unless prevented
by overwhelming Federal interference.
Mr. AYiliiams may be very anxious to do
for Davis what he did for Kellogg, but if
the President follows his counsel again
he will do it in opposition to the viows of
tho largo majority of his supporters.
The Attorney General, howover, stated
to-day in conversation thus he had given
nothing liko a positive assurance to any
one of wliat action ho would recommend
in tho Texas matter. He said that he
had had somo conversation on the sub
ject, but not beyond that. AYhen tho

lost night a party drove up. assem
bled 'n tlie parlor of a hotel, and sent
for tho landlord. They had eotae in from
tho prairie and were in search of an offi
cial to tie tho knot that should makethom
ono and inseparable forevermore. I was
invited to witness the ceremony, and as
cending to the parlor found the expectant
bridegroom, a man about forty years of
age, and a fair and blushing damsel of
s«e t iixtee a, waiting impatiently tlie ar
rival of tho parson. For some reason no
preacher could bo found, and they were
obliged to fall back at last upon a very
young fellow, a newly elected Justice of
tho Peace, who had never before officiated
at a ceremony of this kind. He was very
nervous at the idea of haring to perform
tho ceremony, and brought with him a
copy of “Every Man His Own Lawyer,”
through which ho looked for the desired
form. Not finding any, and tho crowd
growing impatient, he told tho couple
to stand up aud hold up their right
hands. This done, lio pronounced tho fol
lowing uhargo t “You. and each of you,
do solemnly swear that in the ease
now upon heating y» u will tell this truth,
tho whole truth, and nothing but the
truth, aud that you will {ora, honor, cher
ish and obey each other during tho term
of your natural lives, so help you God.”
Both answered solemnly “I will.” Then
the Justieo charged them a dollar each,
and pronounced them man and wife.
One of tho friends then produced a jug of
whisky from their sleigh and jiroceeded
to compound a punch, of which tho whole
party drank freely, and then had a dance.
As they could find no music, their efforts
wore principally confined to jigs and
break-downs. At last the party concluded
to put tho happy couple to bed. The
bride was willing to go, because she said
she was tired and her shoes pinched her
feet. Tho girls of the party took her off
to her chamber, and soon announced to
the bridegroom that everything was
ready. The young fellows then intimated
to tlio bridegroom that they proposed to
divest him of his wearing apparel. He
objected, and then a scuffle commenced.
The bridegroom was as strong os an
ox. and, getting- angry, ha blackened
ono fellow's eye and toro another one’s
coat off his hack. In the turmoil
the whole party got out of tho room, aud
went to the saloon close by and took a
drink. In spite of all persuasions the
newly-married man declared that he was
not going to let them take off his clothes.
His friends then got a rope, and makmg
a noo30 slipped it over his head and tried
to drag him up stairs. They nearly
choked him to death, when the doctor in
terfered and cut the rope. Then they
fastened it to his legs, and in trying to
ilrac him up stairs broke a lounge and
tore down half the balustrade. Finding
that they could not get him np stairs,
tliev went up to see if they could not
make the bride get up and come down.
But sho had locked the door and would
not let the crowd in. Some of them got
a hammer and nails, and getting a lad
der, put it upon the outside of the house,
climbed into the bride’s apartment and
nailed up the door firmly, saying that if the
bridegroom would not let them put him
to bed he should not get into the room
anyhow. They hid tho ladder and went
off. The happy man finding the way
clear walked quietly to his room and at
tempted to enter. He could not get™;
and he shouted, “My dear, open the door.
Slie informed, him that it was nailed up.
He then tried to kick it open, when the
landlord interfered and told him he was
not going to have his furniture and his
house ruined in that way. He. went out
and tried to find the ladder, but he could
not do it. At last some one remembered
that a lightning-rod man had some lad-
ders at the other barn, and down tne
new'lv married soul hastened. He securod
a ladder, and at half-past five in the
morning he succeeded in joining hu3
bride in the room above.

Social ana Domestic Ethics Among
the Crocodiles of India.
From Land and Mater.]
Dr. Day, in his report on the fisheries
ox India, gives an interesting 1 notice of
the extent to which crocodiles will destroy
fish. There are two distinct genera of
crocodiles in India. The first of these is
the trne fiih-eating crocodile (Gariaii
Ganc/eticus, Gmelin), which attains up
ward of 20 feet in length, and is found in
the Indus, the Ganges and other large
rivers. This species has a long and slen
der snout; it fa usually timid of man, ex
cepting when the locality where its eggs
are deposited in the sand fa invaded. It
does not appear to feed on carrion, but
fish, turtle and tortoises form its diet.
In 1868 it was deemed one of tho sights
at Cuttack to watch these enormous rep
tiles feeding below the irrigation weir,
which was impeding tho upward ascent
of the breeding fish. Their long brown
snouts would be seen rising to the sur
face of the water, with a fish cross-wise
in their jaws. The finny prey was flung
into the air by a toss of the head, and
descending head foremost, fell into the
captors’ ‘comparatively small mouths,
They are very prolific. A single gun has
been known to destroy sixty out of one
brood in threo honrs’ shooting. But
some fishermen, when asked whether
they over kill the crocodiles, at once pro
tested against such a course. Their ar
gument was. “Are we not both of tho
fish-de-stroying race, and how could we
be so cruel as to slaughter them ?” As to
the destruction committed by these crea
tures, they merely remarked that they
would themselves do tho same if they
could, and in thfa undoubtedly they
spoke the truth. However, it la not to
be expected that fishermen should bestow
their time in destroying young croco
diles, and they do not carry guns to
shoot tlio full-grown animals. Neither
will tlie native sportsmen waste their
ammunition on crocodiles, which are
of no use to them when killed. The
means proper to reduco their num
bers arS to offer rewards .for the
destruction of their eggs. The common
cvocodilo'fcrocodilus palus(ris) also abounds
in India, and though usually termed
man-eaters, they assist in depopulating
the waters of fish; and it is only when
the finny tribes or carrion are scarce that
they will attack tho larger mammals, in
cluding man; but having once tasted
blood they appear eager to do so again.
In somo of the irrigation canals one or
more of these creatures may usually be
seen below the locks, where there are
pools stocked with fish, and when the
latter fail they will turn their attention
to tho cattle. Dr. Dajr, iu 1868, noticed
four below a large weir at Cuttack; six
weeks afterward they had increased to
nine, besides many little ones; and ho
calculated that the fish they were then
consuming day by day would ho worth
moro than twenty-two rupees. His sug
gestion to give five rupees apiece as a re
ward for tho destruction of these ani
mals was disregarded; and supposing
these nine crocodiles hail not increased,
and that thoyoung ones never lived to grow
np, they would still have consumed fish to
the valuo of £2,873 in the threo and ahalf
years to the middle of 1872, all of which
might have boon avoided by the outlay of 45
rupees at tho time referred to. But the
ravages of crocodiles are not confined only
to the fish. Compelled by hunger, they
will help themselves to cattle; or else
feed on human beings who may approach
unconsciously near tho water. Thus thcro
is a hole on the river Nuna to which croc
odiles in the dry season will resort. Of
course tho fish in such pools are soon cx-
housted, and iu 1868 these monsters car
ried off fivo adults. So also near the Ba-
ropa, where two women and one horse
were devoured by crocodiles in a single
month. Their one redeeming quality is
that they are the natural scavengers of
tho rivers. This, however, is orly true
of the common crocodile, and as the fish
eries of England are deterioating, these
large, fish-eating reptiles ought to bo
energetically reduced, as they are no
longer required in such numbers as be
fore, even if we concedo full force to the
arguments of those who are for maintain
ing the balance of nature on every sido.
