At 12:10, cn motion of Mr. Anthony the Senate adjourned until to-morrow. In the House, by unanimous consent, tbe States wero called aa on Monday, for the intiodaction of bills, under which call the following were introduced and referred. By Wocd, of New York, a bill respecting the refunding of the national debt. The bill ia ae follows: Bt it enacted, That so much of the au thority conferred on the Secre tary of the Treaaury, by the act of July 14, 1870, and January 20,1871, to refund tho pub 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 yet to be issued, as authorized by there acts, to a rate of interest not to exceed 3} per oent. per annum.

It is understood that this bill was pre pared Bt the treasury department by Seo- retary Sborman, and contains all ths pro visione which ho deems necessary to ena ble bim to carry out successfully the work of refunding five and eix per cent, bonds whioh fall duo la 1831, amounting to nearly eight hundred million dollars.

Orrell at Fayetteville, and David L. Bringle, at Salisbury. North Carolina; Edward H. Brooks, at Camden. South Carolina, and Benjamin M. Cox at Farm- vilto. Virginia. 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. Newo Items. Augusta, Ga., December 3.—Robert H. May was elected mayor to-day by 634 majority over Charles Estes.

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.

Demo 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 parties giving notioa of contest, and they will probably bo dropped by the Commit tee.

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.

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. Early, when over u half of million of dollars will be had distributed. Tho full particulars ot whioh can bo bad of M. A. Dauphin, F. O.

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.
