Congress.
Washington, April 8.—In the House,
under the call of committees, bills were
reported and disposed of as follows:
By Air. Barber, of Illinois, from the
Committee on Claims, a hill for the relief
of Henry C.Deahna, which was placed
on the calendar. Also, a bill for the re
lief of the German National Bauk, of
Louisiville, Kentucky, which was similar
ly disposed of.
Washington-, Apnl S.—The morning
hour in the Senate was occupied with un
important business. At its expiration Air.
Sauisbury said he would not interrupt the
debate on the Ute Indian bill to-day; by
calling up the Kellogg-Spofford report, but
would call it up on Tuesday next.
The Senate then resumed the considera
tion the bill ratifying the Ute agreeme
Arguments for the bill, and covering
Indian question generally, were made by
Messrs. Dawes, Williams, Butler of South
Carolina, Coke and others.
Air. Butler opposed the bill as one which
temporized with and postponed the final
settlement of the Indian question, lie
opposed it because It did not do away with
the present expensive and disastrous In
dian policy, which had already cost -one
hundred and seventy-nine million dollars
($179,000,000) in annual appropriations,
and thrice that sum for expenses and loss
es through the Indian ware. He would
not vote for any bill which recognized the
independence of tribal organizations; he
would recognize the Indians ohly as indi
viduals subject to the same law as white
men.
Air. Ooke said he thought Air. But
ler's argument tended 'to support rath
er than overthrow this, since no measure
policy I
shadow of tribal relations in existence.
He also was opposed to the present Indian
policy, and favored the transfer of the In
dian War Department. But, since that
could not be accomplished, he would ac
cept this bill as a remedy for many exis-.
jting evils. If It failed in all else, it would
at least avert a disastrous war. After
some further remarks by Messrs. Teller,
Vest and Hill, the Senate adjourned.
In the House, a large number of bills
were reported, adversely from the Com-
onittee on War Claims, and laid on the
table. The House then went into com
mittee of the whole on the army appro
priation bill. Considerable discussion en
sued as to tlie point of order raised by
Mr. Keifler, of Ohio, against the supple
mentary section the Committee on Mili
tary Allaire proposed to add to the hill
to prevent the use of theariny at the polls.
The Republicans generally held that the
Committee on Military Affairs had no ju
risdiction over the subject matter of the
bill, and that the proposed supplementary
section did not reduce the expenditures, as
it must to he in order. The chair ruled
that the proposed amendment would re
duce expenditures, and was therefore In
order. ‘ : _ ,
Mr. Conger appealed from the chairs
decision, but it was sustained by 103 to
02. After considerable discussion of the
question as to whether a general debate
should he allowed on the bill, the Repub
licans claiming that such had been the
agreement, the House adjourned.
"Washington', April 8.—The House
Committee on Ways and Means adopted
to-day the Carlisle bill, amending the in
ternal revenue laws in relation to whisky
distilleries, and ordered a favorable re
port to he made to the House upon it.
The House Committee on Military Af
faire has appointed a sub-committee to in
vestigate the recent hazing of Cadet
Whittaker, of South Carolina, at West
Point.
Washington*, April S.—The House
committee on the Pacific Railroad gave a
hearing to-day, upon the bill granting an
extension of time to the Northern Pacific
Railroad Company for the fulfillment of
tUc wndtthras of ire land grunt.
The - President has recognized AT. W.
Merry as vice-consul of Spain at Savan
nah, Georgia. ’ _
The House committee on' the Revision
of Laws gave a hearing to-day upon Rep
resentative McCords bill to repeal the
legacy and succession tax.
The Democratic Senatorial caucus re
sumed its deliberations this evening upon
the adjournment of the Seuate, and de
voted another hour to the discussion of
the future order of easiness. It was found
that a decided majority of the Senators
present were in favor of going on with
the appropriation bills and Geneva award
bill, and of leaving the Spofford-Kellogg
case to take its chances after these more
important matters shall have been dis
posed of. { - - » ’ t, , ,
A considerable number of Senators ex
plicitly said that the Kellogg-Spofford case
ongbt to go over until the next session,
because, irrespective of the partisan com
ments which might be made upon it dur-
,'ing the fall campaign, its present consid-
• eration would, in their opinion, tend to
prolong this session far into the summer.
The merits of the controversy were not at
mil discussed to-day, nor was any caucus
^action either taken Jor proposed concern
ing it. The object of the meeting was
simply to aflord the Democratic Senators
an qpportunity for a lull interchange of
views with regard to the proper time for
the discussion of the case m open Senate.
Washington, April 9.—In j.be Senate;
on motion of Air. Cameron, ofPenusyi-
vania,.!t was resolved that when the Sen
ate adjourns to-day it bo to meet on Mon
day nextr-
Mr. Logan submitted a resolution di
recting the Secretary of War to furnish
the Senate with any facts that may be in
his possession in. reference to the recent
mutilation of cadets at West Point.
Messrs. Eaton and Maxey thought the
resolution premature. An official inves
tigation of the outrage was known to be
in progress, land .the Senate would be able
do get an official report ’ when it should be-
.made. In accordance with suggestions by
Messrs. Conkiing and Hoar, Mr. Logan
modified bit resolution so as to request
•the President of the United States to
[transmit such information in 'regard to
the affair as In his judgment would not be
nnconformable with public interest.
The Democratic Senators this morning
held another caucus meeting on the order
of business. The caucus,, after an hour’s
discussion, adjourned until, to-morrow
without taking any .action; but the gen
eral aentiment to-day, as at yesterday’s
meeting, was evidently in favor of giving
precedence to the Geneva Award bill, ana
such appropriation bills as may be ready
for action, thus leaving the Spofford-Kel
logg case to take its chances of obtaining
consideration in the Senate this session,
or to go over to next session, just as the
condition of public business may hereaf
ter seem to render advisable.
Messrs. Jonas, of Louisiana, Hill, of
Georgia, Sauisbury, Vance and Vest took
the ground to-day that the SpoaSbrd-Kel-
logg case could not properly be postponed.
They were opposed to any evasion of the
issue, and wauted the Democratic party
te have and show the courage of its con
victions. They insisted that it was plain
that Kellogg had no right to the seat, and
the majority should not hesitate to seat
Judge Spofibrd. Mr. Garland spoke iu
favor of going on with more important
public business. Tbe Kellogg case was
not a pressing matter, and it should await
the action of the Senate upon pressing ap
propriation bills and other general legisla
tion.
The President to-day sent to the Seuate
the nomination of John W» Barr, of Lou
isville, to he United States District Judge
for the district of Kentucky, and Alexan
der Pearce to be Postmaster at Green
ville, Tenn.
Washington, April 9.—In the Senate
Air, Voorhees suppotted Mr. Logan’s reso
lution, and commented in severe terms
upon the brutal and inhuman treatment
to which cadets are often subjected in the
West Point Academy.
Messrs, Maxey and Burnside defended
that institution against the charges made
by the first named Senator, and thought
it best to gwait tbe result of the official
Investigation now being made of all out
rages upon Whittaker, before taking any
such action, as tlie Senator proposed.
After some farther remarks by Mr.
Hoar and others, the resolution went over
without action.
At the expiration of. the morning hour,
the Senate resumed the consideration of
the Ute Indian agreement hill.
Mr. Vest supported the Dill as a practi
ce step in the right direction
IxJiL
former argument against it. Speeches
were also made by Messrs. Teller, Plumb
and'others. Tbe amendment of Mr:
Davis authorizing tbe President lo use
$10,000 of the amount appropriated in the
bill for the education of Indian youths
was adopted, as was also the amendment
proposed by Air. Morgan vhat the act
should not be construed so as to compel
any IJtc Indian to remove from the lands
claimed by him in severalty. After some
further discussion, it was agreed that the
bill should gc over to-day, and be finally
voted on before ad'oumment Monday.
The Senate then went into executive
session, and when the doors were reopen
ed, adjourned until Monday.
Washington, April 9.—Fifty or six
ty bills were reported adversely from the
Committee on War Claims, and laid on
the table. * .
'° Mr.-"Newbury, of Michigan, introduced
a hill relative to the transportation of
goods in bond.
The House then went into Committee
of the Whole on the private calendar. The
pending bill was that for the relief of
Madison Day, of Louisiana. Debate of
two hours ensued, after which a vote was
taken—72 yeas, 22 nays, which was not a
quorum. The committee then rose.
Air. Blount, of Georgta, introduced a
bill for the erection of public builditigs at
Alacon, Ga. Referred. The House then
adjourned.
Washington, April 9.—The House
Committee on Public Buildings will.re
port favorably on bills appropriating
money for the erection of public build
ings, as follows : • At Augusta, Georgia,
$100,000; Key West, Florida, $125,000;
Tyler, Texas, $50,000; Greenville, South
Carolina, $50,000. ,
During yesterday and to-day, the"
House War Claims Committee reported
adversely upon one hundred and ten
claims amounting to five millions of dol
lars.
In the Democratic cancus ■ Senator
Thurmgn also insisted that the Spofford-
Kellogg case ought to be laid aside for
the present.
Air. Jonas said the Democrats of Lou
isiana had been misrepresented , in the
Senate long enough, and" they demanded
their full rights. He added that he would
not answer for Louisiana remaining a
Democratic State any lotigerj if the Dem
ocrats of the Senate passed this matter
over; and while the Senators were con
sidering the possibility of losing votes by
taking up this case, they had better look
at the other side of the question and con
sider the chances of losing a State if they
refused to do Louisiana Democrats jus
tice. - '•
Senators Hill, Sauisbury and Voorhees;
of tbe Elections Committee, held that the
investigation of this case was ordered with
the understanding that it should be dis
posed of as soon as all the facts could be
learned, and they therefore thought it
would not be treating the committee right
ly to postpone the matter. They also ar
gued that the Investigation of the matter
having been entrusted to the committee,
and the labor having been faithfully per
formed, the majority of the Senate ought
to'stand by the committee's conclusion.
’Senator"Bayard, and some others, there*
upon remarked that their understanding
was that the committee were to inquire
whether or not the case was res adjudica-
to, and that the question whether Mr. Kel
logg’s title was open to dispute was there
fore to be determined by the Senate at
its convenience, and upon its own judg
ment.
Although, as above stated, a majority of
those present at the caucus to-day were
evidently in favor of giving other busi
ness precedence over this case, the minor
ity who insist upon its prompt considera
tion are so urgent that it is still very pos
sible they may cany their point.
Mr. Justice Field’s friends in tjiis city
have received dispatches from Portland,
Oregon, stating that the Democratic dele
gation-to Cincinnati rromtbauscate stands
five to one in Justice Field’s favor. The
platform adopted by the State Conven
tion is also acceptable to his friends.
Washington, April '.9«—The Senate
in executive session to-day confirmed the
nomination of James B.-Angeli, of Alichi-
gan, as Minister of the United States to
China, and John F. Swift, of California,
and William H. Llscott, of South Caro
lina, to negotiate with China .a treaty
concerning such matters of interest to tbe
two governments, as may be confided to
them.
TIte House Appropriation committee
to-day considered the Fortification bill as
amended by the Senate. They decided to
concur on the amemdment appropriating
ment app:
certain forts. r ■ , r
"* Washington, Apnl 10.—House.—On
motion of Mr. Fernando Wood, the House
concurred in the Senate resolution pro
viding for the appointing of two members
of the Senate Finance Committee, and
two members of tbe House Ways and
Means Committee, to take into consider
ation the alleged loss of revenue on arti
cles subjeet to excise duty, and- what
remedy can be provided.
The House then, baring dispensed with
the morning hour, at 12:86, went into
Committee of the Whole, Springer in tbe
chair, on the army appropriation bill, and
a general debate was commenced Upon
the amendments prohibiting the use of
troops at the polls as a police force.
Washington, April JO-—The Demo
cratic Senators met in caucus at lff.80
oclock this morning, and remained in
session until two .ofolock, p. m. The
question Of taking up the Spofford-Kel
logg case was the subject under conside
ration, and the.discussion.continued with
a good deal of animation and spirit.
Messrs. Eayard, Latoar, Garland, Kern an
and others spoke against the. present con
sideration of the : Kellogg gate, white
Messrs. Saulsbuty, Hill, Vance and Jones
again insisted that it ought to he brought
before the Senate for, potion without de
lay. The arguments, pro and con, Were
much the same as those of yesterday and
the day before, except that eyen more de
termination was shown to-day by the ad
vocates of immediate action.
It was also openly suggested that the
proposition to unseat Kellogg and seat
Spofibrd, Could not be adopted, because
there were Democratic Senators Who
would vote against it. *’
Mr. Hill said: “Very well; let them
vote against it.” The committee had done
its duty, and it now remained for tbe Sen
ate to perform its duty. No matter what
the vote might be, he inaistadupon the case
being disposed oft and, in regard .to its
possible effect upon the Presidential elec
tion, said that ought uotto deter the Sen
ate from disposing of tbe case.
Finally, a resolution was adopted by a
majority of three providingfhat tbe Gene
va award bill shall be taken aqp first, and
be considered from day to day until dis
posed of, and that thin the Chairman of
the Elections Committee may call up the
Kellogg case—unless, meantime, the
Democratic caucus shall decide
otherwise.
The caucus this morning was not Hull?
attended, and it was understood that an.
other shall be held before the final rtiapo.
sition of the Geneva award bill, to pass
finally upon the question of tlie considera
tion of the Kellogg ease. This was a sort
of compromise, and it was consented to
in the hope of bringing about a better feel
ing on tbe question than now exists. It
is the understanding that a final decision
shall be made by a full vote of all the
Democratic Senators, if itcan .be ob
tained.
Washington, April 10.—House.—Mr.
Sparks opened the discussion on the clause
in the army appropriation bill prohibiting
the use of troops at the polls. He called
the attention of tbe House to the fact that
this identical clause had already been
added to the appropriation bill. He had
understood that the great leaders on the
other side had acceded to the amendment.
The vote upon the amendment had shown
that but twelve Republicans had voted
against it. He confessed that this amend
ment did not meet his views. This tame,
cawardly amendment, did not come up
to that standard of legislation on the sub-
ject that he would have wished, and if he
had power he would insist on something
much stronger than this, and unyielding
ly insist on its adoption.
He would wipe out this un-American,
tin-republican, un-democralic, villainous
statute, which owed its existence to the
inspiration of fanaticism, and to an era of i
hate. .. —' - *
Air. Conger—Will the gentleman state
on which aide r.hate and fanaticism
were? «- . \ f <
Mr. Sparks—(not noUciug-'question)—
It disgraces the statute book-and insults
the sovereign people of this countiy.

An endeavor was made .to correct him

a year ago. He testified that he had no
reason to suppose that there was prejudice
among his instructors. agaiust him, and.
that he has a. fair chance of getting
through as far at they are concerned; but
lie felt that hi*, social standit® has had ef
fect on him as far as his studies are con-
Cirned. When some, of the pieces of the
belt with which he had been tied were
shown the witness, it was shown that one
piece contained eyelets, which none but
officers’belts contained, and Whittaker
had never been an, officer. His friends
consider this important. He also denied
the ownership of a black neck tie found
in his room*
Wkst Point, April 10.—The inquiry
in the Whittaker case was resumed this
morning. Whittaker was recalled. He
said he had no conversation with his as
sailants, except to say .: “Please don't cut
my ear.” He had been told .that the gas
was found lighted in the morning, but he
had positively extinguished it before his
retirement. When the; surgeon aroused
him, he thought his assailants had re
turned. The penknife arid scissors found
iu his room, he identified as his own. He
was shown a white handkerchief with the
corner cot out that was found in his room
but said he never saw it before Thursday
last. During the examination, he was
taken into an ante-room, where the court
examined his. ears, ankle and head, and
on his return, in answer to a question,
said that in his opinion, an oath was bind
ing on his conscience to.tell the trntb,and
that he firmly ■ believed >a- t false oath in
volved future punishment; The Recorder
then spoke to him as follows : :
“I want you to put jour hand ota that
Bible which you have so/pften read, and
take oath that you are iu no way cognis
ant, in. no way a free. agent, ,or hare any
knowledge or comiivanoewlth your as
sailants.”, '
V Whittaker took the,Bible, looked his
questioner squarely in the face, and was
.asked": .“Do you lake tfial oath?” Here-
plied clearly and firmly : “I do, sir.”

The Big Bailro&d Combination.
A special from Atlanta’ to the Courier-
Journal says:
It maybe definitely stated that the South
ern railroad sy-tem has been finally ad
justed, and that the field day of the entire
campaign has just closed. Fora week
there has been constant excitement in
railroad circles throughout the South, and
dispatches of inquiry have poured in from
all quarters. From the first day New
comb readied Georgia and had a talk
with Wadley, it has been agreed that he
was master of the situation, and that
Wadley and Alexander were his firm al
lies, but no details of the agreement could
he gleaned from any of the parties con
cerned. The stock speculators were busy
and. pushed^, prices up or down. At
length the news came that the triumvi
rate—Newcomb, Wadley and Alexander
—bad come to an agreement and had
taken a special train for Atlanta. There
never has been such excitement over the
situation as was manifested to-day. The
hotels have been crowded and the slight
est rumors hare been seized upon.
After the consultation in Newcomb’s
rooms between the three Presidents and
Governor Brown, it was announced that
.» perfect alliance had been formed and
the apparent details were given. It is
plain, however, that there, are points not
yet made public. Mr. Newcomb stated
the day before the conference to me that
he had no idea a satisfactory arrangement
that would be permanent could be made,
and there is no doubt that before accept
ing an alliance he demanded and received
hostages that would enable him to make
: the contract binding. He said himself to
your correspondent: “My every wish
lias been anticipated, and I have all that
I could have possibly asked.” It is openly
rumored that his combination even se
cured control .of the Western and Atlantic
Railroad, known as the “neck of the bot
tle.” ,
One thing is certain, no one who knows
Governor Brown, as' all Georgians know
hiffi,'. will believe that 4 Mr- Newcomb
could hive persuaded him to reduce
freights on coal one-half in an hour’s talk,
when Atlanta has been begging for it for
lie had soi
years without avail, unless
thing more than a mere paper contract in
his pocket. The Louisville and Nashville
people are jubilant; and say that this is
the biggest.strqke yet made. : It is certain
fhatj'aespite the " combinations and trades
of his opponents; Newcomb his cleared
hti way to the coast, and, with all routes
open tohhri^ am fchoose that which suits
M best. He has satisfied the Atlanta
people by giving them as'cheap coal as
they could have had, by the Geoigia West
ern, and spared them the delay and ex
pense of its building. There is the liveli-
est satisfaction in all quarters, and Geor
gia fo more than happy.' Mr. Newcomb
hra bad an ovation since he struck tlie
Stale, and all- interested express the ut
most confidence iu bis movements. A
prominent Atlanta merchant said to-day:
“If we had relied on the Georgia Wes
tern, the survey would have taken six
months and the building twelve months
hiore, and we should have to raise by
subscription a quarter of a million dollars;
hut today, without the waiting of a week
or tlie payment of a dollar, as if by mag
ic, one man, and a stranger at that, lias
cut our coal bills in half, given us all that
the Georgia Western, could have given,
and made Atlanta a city.”
If it be true, aa there seems to be no
reason for doubting, that the rate on coal
over tbe Western and Atlantic Railroad
has been reduced one-half in favor of At*
lanta, then Macon should at once put in
her claim for a similar tariff of freights.
Cheap fuel is a great desideratum. We
trust the new combination will not begin
Us career by anything that savors of dis
crimination. Macon, and all other pojnts
south of Atlanta should be placed precise
ly upon the same footing with that city in
the matter of transportation. And this
we have every reason to believe, will be
done. To pursue a different course would
array opposition world without end
against the parties attempting it.
The Chant Iwsa op States.—Tlie
States are not sovereign or independent
autonomies. They have not the power of
conclusive decisions over questions touch
ing the boundaries of their own. constitu
tional functions. They have no ultimate
or original power to protect themselves in
the performance of their functions. Their
powers are derivative, wholly, from the
sovereign nation, of which they are sub
ordinate parts—organized departments—
subject provinces. Correct reasoning can
reach no other conclusion than that
the States are in fact already that to
which Judge Field says the doctrine of
these decisions would “degrade” them.

The Fastest Engine.—The Reading
Railroad Company has had built at the
Baldwin Works a passenger engine which
it is designed shall make the distance
from Philadelphia to New York, ninety
miles, in ninety minutes, thus saving
about half an hour. The driving wheels
are 6} feet in diameter, and the engine
weighs about 84,000 pounds, from 10,000
to 15,000 pounds more than the ordinary
engine. It is expected to make the en
tire distance to New York without stop
ping to take water. That this may be
done it is supplied with a tank of about
twice the capacity of engines In general.
It will hold 4,000 gallons of water. The
capacity of the ordinary passenger engine
Is from 2,000 to 2,500 gallons. The engine
will be put to work in a few days.
Mabriage With a Deceased Wipe’s
Sister.—At a recent meeting in London
to oppose the legalization of marriages
with a deceased wife’s sister the Dean of
Canterbury, who was in the chair, com
bated on various grounds the proposal to
change the law on this subject, and said
he believed that the sum of human hap
piness would be diminished, not increas
ed, by the enactment. Lord flatherley,
In seconding a resolution declaring that
the law prohibiting marriage with a de
ceased wife’s sister should be maintained
in its integrity, said the laws of Greece
and Rome were both explicit as regards
the relations of affinity. An amusing
case might be read in Tacitus of the Em
peror Claudius, who with difficulty got an
indulgence, hut after he had married the
lady he desired.she poisoned him. The
law of England, lie maintained, had been
against such marriages since the time
when Ethelbert was baptized.
Avoiding the Corner in Ice.—The
New *£brk Shipping List states‘that in
view of the announcement of the ice deal

Will he changed for ice "the Coming season,
many , brewers and meat packers,
who are large consumers, are patting
up ice machinery id their estab
lishments for the propose of making their
own ice. The cost of labor is the princi
pal item in the expense. It takes an en
gineer and one workman to run a six-ton
machine, and it requires no more men to
run a hundred-ton machine. The cost of
the ice will be from $1.25 to $3, according
to the capacity of the machine. A fifty-
ton machine will produce ice at a cost of'
$1.25 per ton. The same paper announces
that the Maine dealers have materially
modified their views, ample supplies of
stacked ice, to b3 moved before May 1,
now being available there at about $2,
free on hoard, and some contracts for
housed lots are understood to have been
made at' the same figure.
Danger of Frost.—To talk about
rost at noonday in the bright light of a
blazing sun, ami the mercuiy in the six

mend between now and sunrise Sunday
morning, we are afraid the light of
the holy day will disclose frost. The
wind is point blank from the northwest
and the mercury will drop rapidly after
sundown, unless there is a change.

With die lies over the IslL
Friday night, as the down train on the
Macon and Brunswick railroad, was
plunging along in the neighborhood of
Adams’ Park, one of the forward cars
'jumped the track. The engine was soon
stopped^ and a messenger dispatched for
the construction train, some four miles
distant^Which soorrarrivedrand alt hands
went to work to repair damages. As the
time approached for tlie up train to pass,
k ‘ negro was sent forward to wave it
doWn, and later, fearing that he might not
dischargerjils duty thoroughly, tlie con
ductor sent another to assist him.
In a short while the construction train
started back to the next station to make
way for the'disabled train to follow, and
for the other to pass up, and in doing so,
ran over both of the negroes. It seems
that, overcome with drowsiness and long
watching;^bey" laid down and went to
sleep between the tracks, and did not hear
the cars approaching.
One of them was uninjured, hut the
other had Ids leg crushed. The man who
escaped,Vakt that he raised up when the
car reached.'him,'but feeling something
bump against his head, concluded to lie
down again; this he did, and the track at
this point being elevated on stringers, the
train passed safely over him. His com
panion, however^ had his leg across the
track and did not-escape.
The wounded man was brought to Ma-
and carried- to'his home in Vineville; the
crushed limb tfas amputated yesterday

Sit. P*ul> Sew Church.
The members,of St. Paul’s. Church
are taking steps to build a new and more
convenient structure at the comer of Col
lege street and Cotton;, Avenue. A peti
tion has been laid before tbe City Council
asking for a grant of ihe reserve .which
lies to the right of the “Dirt Bridge,” a
space probably (if one hundred feet. The
church owns .already the railroad cut
down to, and the land in the neighbor
hood of the present building.
It is proposed to erect a new church
partly in, and partly oiit ofthis cut, at the
point where it is crossed by the bridge; in
other words, the rear half of the building
will extend down in the cut, while the
front will rest upon the street. The church
floor will he upon a level with the street,
and the space below reached by area
steps, will be used as a Sunday-School.
The building will C03t about $8,000. It is
thought that the sale of the present edi
fice and surrounding land will realize that
amount. 4l •

Henry County Weekly : *!X- L JS.j ’ is
wanted up here. Henry county has in
vested in an iron safe. It weighs ever so
many thousand pounds, and is designed as
a repository for the county records. It is
an exact counterpart of the Dooly county
curiosity, and bids fair to give quite as
much trouble in the transportation. It
arrived last week, and by dint of hard
work and an endless variety of mind wor
ry, Mr. M°xwell finally suceeded iu land
ing it on the platform of the depot, where
it now lies in all its cumbrous majesty. It
is the intention of the County Commis
sioners to have it carried to McDonough.
McDonough is ten miles oil; though, and
the road "leading to it is broken by an al
most continuous range of hills, beside
which the ancient Judean promontories
would seem like a hole in the ground.
How, or in what manner this distance is
to be compassed, would exhaust the inge-
anity of any man except Will Speer, and
we respectfully suggest that “X. I. E,” he
solicited to furnish plans and specifica
tions for its safe removal.
The shortest way Out of the difficulty, it
strikes us, is to petition the Post-office De
partment for a free delivery system. The
safe could then be stamped, and sent out
by one of the boys.

raging' at Mandelay, and the heir apparent
died from the disease.
Berlin, April 10.—In the Reichstag
yesterday, there was a long debate on the
bill for the reorganization of the army,
Kerr Stanffenberg proposed to restrict the
term of operation of the bill. The first
and second paragraphs of tho bill, fixing
the peace standard of the army unti
March 3,1888, at 427,271 men, was adopt
ed—yeas 186, nav-. "3. The Ministers
clared the bill on cd its origin not only to
the present political situation, lint to rea
sons of a lasting character, and that a per
manent military budget alone could give
the army steadfastness and confidence.
Herr Ricketert, National Liberal, said
the strengthening of the army was of the
highest importance to the nation, and
must not be made a party question now.
He declared that a party existed in Ger
many which wished to weaken the defen
sive power of the whole nation.
