In the House, by unanimous consent,

Bt it enacted, That so much of the au

lic debt to the extent of $1,600,000,000
as hss not been exheueted and executed,
bo and tho same is hereby modified eo as
to limit tho rate of interest on bonds

Governor Holliday’s Message
Richmond, Deoomber 3.—The General
Assembly met at noon to-day, in the first
biennial session under tho reoent amend -
ment to the Constitution. All tho Sena
tors were present, and all the delegates
but two. The organization was effectod
by tha election of the Readjustee’ candi
dates in both Houses, by majorities rang
ing from eight to thirteen in the Senate,
and from fifteen to eighteen in tho
House, showing that thB Read j asters
have a majority on joint ballot of about
ihirty-aeveu. Governor Holliday’s me3-
sago was then read. It is almost entirely
devoted to the disonssion cf the State
debt.
It approves the settlement made last
session, tbe terms of which were embodi
ed m tho measure known as tho McCul
loch bill and Btates that notwithstanding
tho recent agitation in favor of the repeal
of that law, which has to some extent
interfered with its operation, nearly
eight million five hundred thousand dol
lars of old bonds have already been ex
changed for new ones. With regard to
tho merits of the McCalloch bill, tbe
governor says it was regarded by
the ontBide world as a fair and
reasonable - settlement and one whioh
in no way impugned tbo honor of the
State. This he says was a matter of vi
tal importance in any settlement that
might be made. " Why then,” ho aske,
"should it not be aeoeptod by ths peaplo
ot tho State 03 in every way a desirable
conclusion of tho question whose agita
tion has cost tho Btato more than tho
whole aum'.mvolved ? My views are very
clear and distinct that money represented
by tbo lntereet or even by the principal
of tbo dabt, large as it is, is of little im
portance in comparison with the Slato’a
oredit, and that nothing save inability
can justify or excuso its non-payment.”
After the reading of the massage in
the Senate a resolution w&3 adopted un
der a suspension of the rules, fixing Fri
day, tho fifth instant, for tho eleotion of
State officers, including tho Secrotary of
the Commonwealth, First and Second
Auditors, Treasurer, etc., fourteen in all.
The Readjasters’ largo majority on joint
ballot justifies the presumption that a
clean sweep will be made of all the pre
sent incumbents. In the election to-day
all tbo Republican* except four voted
with the Readjusters.

Nzw Yokx, December 3.—A Bradford,
Pe Busylvania, special Bays John Ready,
who has been for some time living with
a notorious woman named Carrie Nihil,
recently became insanely jealous of her,

self twice, dying in about two hours. The

cover.
Rawlins, Wx., December 3.— The

Atlanta, Ga., December 3.—A strong
temperance movement, in whioh many
prominent citizens participate, hss been
inaugurated by John W. Drew, of Con
cord, N. H. It is known aa the “Blae
Ribbon Movement,” and three thousand
persons have pledged themselves to total
abstinence, and a temperanoa boom in
Georgia may be the result. Rockdale
county yesterday voted in favor ot pro
hibition. and local option is becoming
popular.
Cincinnati, December 3.—The Snqni-
rtr't Charleston, West Virginia, corres
pondent says the whole Kanawha valley
mining regioa is suffering from the acts
of the Knights of Labor, very much as
the mining region in Pennsylvania did
from the acts of the Molly Ma
guires. In 1S77 and 1373 there were
fifteen stiikea along the Kanawha river,
accompanied wtth violence and lawless
ness, and since 1876 there have been
fight fatal lynchings without an effort
•u the part of the authorities to bring
the perpetrators to justice. This week
another general strike waa threatened,
inclnding a stoppage of all coal trains on
the Chesapeake and Ohio road. It was
met by a declaration of the Governor
that he would use the whole military
power of the State, and if necessary he
would call on tbe general government
for aid to Btop any such lawless condnct.
So far serious trouble has been avoided.
Tbe Knights ot Labor have some five
ot six thousand member* algsg the Tal
ley, and have county, general and district
assemblies in six or seven counties.
Nsw Okluans, December 3.—A special

tion of Wilts by twenty thousand major
ity. The new constitution is adopted by
a large majority. Prominent Democrats
consider the fate of the debt ordinance
whioh was voted on separately, in doubt.
Indications point; to its defeat though the
vote will probably be oloss, and official
returns may be required to decide. In
this city the Democrats have about six
thousand majority.
Washington.
Washington, December 3.—Tho House
Committee on Elections met to-day to
consider the cases of members whose
seats are contested, of which cases there

crat, in the Fourth Alabama District,
and Hebert and Merchants vs Acklen
Democrat, in the Third.Louisiana Dis
trict, no briefs have been filed by the

Nzw Ozlzans, December 3.—In the
Kellogg-Spofford investigation to-day, a
number of witnesses were Introduced to
impeach or sustain tho character of tho
other witneeses previously examined.
Wm. Wood, colored, testified that Spof-
ford told him he had twenty thousand
dollars back pay due him, whioh he
would spend In getting evidence to prove
bribery on the part of Kellogg. Tho
witness and Judge Phillips got a number
of affidavits for him, including that of

er, assured witness that Kellogg had re
peated conversations with Murray, in

er than hearsay knowledge on the part
of Kellogg, bat that thore was money in
the case—big money—and he was going
to Washington where he conld make
somebody squeal, whether Kellogg
or Spofford, he did not care which.
E. H. Flower, colored, testified to work
in bpafford’a behalf, in the way of getting
affidavits, and said the latter failed to
keep his promises. A number of other
witnesses were called or recalled to con
tradict or confirm the statements hereto
fore made by witnesses on both sides.
At four o’clock the committee decided
to receive no moro testimony, and ad
journed to meet in Washington to pre
pare their report. The committee has
examined ono hundred and seventeen
witnesses.
A constant Source ol Wonder.
Why ia it that the winners of the prizes in
the Iiauisiana State Lottery Company ali
ways seem to bo men who are pretty sharp
in the ways of the world? Editors, prin
ters, hotel clerks, bankers, tolcgragh opera
tors, merchants, and many other professions
and occupations seem to have a special
knack of hitting the right number. Tho peo
ple enumerated have the best means of fully
convincing themselves that (tho statements
made by tbe oompiny aro reliable and trao,
and that as aaro as tho nun riaoa on tho b:m-
tcenth of .December next, the semi-annual
extraordinary distribution will take place at
Now Orleans, under tho sole management of
General G. T. Beauregard and Jnbal A.

Spain and Hub Bridal Queen.— The
Madrid correspondent of th9 Louisville
Courier-Journal says:
Christine loves gayoty and spleudor,
and sho will make tho Falacio Real more
brilliant than it has been for many a day.
She evidently means to be every inch a
queen. She is tall, slender, and beauti
fully formed, and her air ia deoidedly
aristocratic. She i3 by no moans intel
lectually brilliant, but aha is as amiable
as she can be. Sho has exquisite golden
hair end pnre complexion, bat she has
the Hapebnrg mouth and high cheek bone,
and her nose i3 sadly ugly. The match,
on tho whole, would be a moat excellent
one, if Spain was only in a better finan
cial condition. The public debt of $2,-
600,000,000 is a great burden, or would
be to other people; but Spain pays no in
terest on her debt and has sot for years,
while the treasury i3 chronically empty.
All the money to pay for these wodding
doings has to bo borrowed, but aB long as
Spanisids esn danoe and hear music and
seo bnll fights, debts are the last things
they think of.
