A South Carolina syndicate is nego tiating with a party of Nashville capi talists for the purchase of largo tracts of-phosphate lands in Hickman and other counties in Tennessee. It is said that $000,000 is the price to bo paid, if the investigation of the prop erty now in progress proves satisfac tory*,. Making it possiblo to change the rules without previous notice; regulating the privilege of the floor granted to the representatives of the pri ss associ ations, and striking out tho regula tion governing tho printing of docu ments that have been covered iu the new printing law. At 3:15 p. ra., on motion of Mr. Hendersffa, tho house adjourned until Monday. Monday, being the second of tl s month, was, under the rules, set aside for tho consideration of business re lating to the District of Colombia. Although the consideration of tho house rules has not been completed, it was decided to give the day to the Dis trict of Columbia committee. Two unimportant bills were passed, after which the house weut into committee of the whole for the consideration of tho pension appropriation bill Tits rena'te. Mr. Frye introduced a bill in the senate Thursday to reconvene tho del 'm . ' earnestly success, and Welt Kniv Mr.,E. B„' widqjy' wfiF" T* coed with tho consideration of that bill ucoording to the notioe previously given, but ns Mr. Stowart insisted Mr, Jones was compelled to yield. Mr. Stewart in his remarks advocated the passage of tbo Elkins resolution as amended by Mr. llijtlor, of North Carolinn, prohibiting the salo of any bonds in the future except with tho express oonsent of congress. During tho morning hours in tho senuto Friday, on motion of Mr. Voor- hees, demoorat, Indiana, a resolution was adopted appropriating $250 for tho purclinso of a portrait of tho late Allen G. Thurman. Mr. Pritchard, republican. North Carolina, called up tho amendments he offered to the rev- nue bill to increase the duties on cer tain kinds of clny, marble, iron ore, tiinbor, livo stock, oeronlB, fruits, wool anil coal for tho purpose of ad dressing the senate thereon. Ho fa vored the ro-onaetment of tlio McKin ley law nud the froo coinage of silver. lie denounced tho southern demo crats for their rooreanoyto their own section. Thcic tariff laws had brought unexampled prosperity to New Eng land manufacturers and bankruptcy and ruin to tbo farmers and producers of the south. When Mr. Pritchard bad finished, Mr. Hill, democrat, New York, chided tlio former for tho inconsistency of bis state. North Carolina, ho said, occupied a peculiar situation in con gress, and ho did not seo how bor peo ple could bo gratified. Borne time ago tho saino legislature in North Carolina had eloeted two senatois by tho same combination. A fow days ago one of them (Mr. Jlutlcr) bad denounced the domocratio party for being fulso to its plodges of tariff reform. Today the other end of the combination told tho senate that ho favored tho ro-euaot- ment of tho McKinley law. Mr. White, democrat, California, consumed tho remainder of tlio time, before the expiration of tho morning hour with a speech in favor of some practical modifications of tho senato tules. Hu did not miuco words in his characterization of the rules and tho “ancient fictions” they perpetuated. The great evil which he especially in veighed against was that which per mitted interihiuaVilo dobato on any question nnd placed it in tho power of a single senator to bold tbo senate at his mercy so long. Tlio senate then adjourned until Monday. Tho vico-president laid boforo tbo senate Monday a letter from tho secretary of the treasury in reply to a resolution of inquiry presented by Mr. Puffer as to whether one hundred mill ions of dollars in gold had at any time been set apart from other funds. The secretary states this has never been done, there being no prevision of law authorizing it. Mr. Call, democrat, Florida, submitted a number of peti tions in regard to Cuba nnd a^ked that they bo printed. Objection was made by Mr. Platt,' republican, Con ncctiout.

Tho Spanish ministor at Washing ton lias roceivod a cablegram from Madrid, stating tbfft Marshal Campos, in a cablegram rcooivod there Wednes day morning, says: “Tho'main body of the enemy has marched to the pro vince of Pinar del Rio. I have ad vanced tho columns of Generals Vab dez, Garoia, Navarro, Ecbngue and Luquo to follow them. I have the other columns on the railroad between Havana and Batanbano.

The sonata committeo on foreign relations hold a spooial mooting Sat urday morning for tho purpose of con sidering tho Armenian and Cuban questions. There are more important matters before this committee this session than thero have ever been in many years,owing to many recent for eign complications. Tho discussion of tho Venezuelan resolution brought out tho fact that tho loophole left in tlio president’s message sanctioning auy amicable settlement mado between tho Ven ezuelan government nnd Great Britain by the cession of territory would bn. aeqnirsced in by tbo United Stntes, would bo probably accepted by Great Britain as the best way out ot tho difficulty. This probable resul of tho difficulty was deplored, but tin ground was taken that inasmuch as tin president lmd committed tho United Staton to this policy in tHis particular case, wo could not protest. Tho Mon roe dootrinc, ns it will bo affirmed by congress, however, will, it is said, re pudiato any Mich acquisition of terri tory in tho future. Tho report ha gained credence Hint tho British gov eminent either has, or will, iu tin near future, make an offer of £100,00f for tho territory claimed liy Circa' Britain nnd disputed by Venezuela.
