ijeinepr tftkgrapji & 3(fitMtnger. FRIDAY, MAY 14, 1830. The railway to the top of Vesuvius Is now completed, and its formal inaugura- ion will take place this month. —The New York Tribune, (Rep.,) makes this announcement: Judge H. V. Johnson and Joshua Hill, of Georgia, are mentioned as possible postmaster-generals. Judge Johnson is a very conservative man, and Mr. Hill was a Union man throughout the war. The Moffatt bell-punch has lost its tongue in the Old Dominion. A new and stringent license law went into effect last Saturday, and drinks are no longer regis tered. A banquet was given by the bar keepers of Richmond during the evening in honor of the event. —The new wells completed in the oil regions during April add nearly ten thou sand barrels to the daily production. There are over five hundred new wells under way. In the face of this heavy de velopment there can be no improvement in the prices. —The unit rule, says the Tribune, absolutely the only hope of the Grant managers, and the unit rule lias never been enforced in a Renublican national convention. In view of this outlook it would seem to be in order for the Grant leaders to back up their “confidence” in Grant’s nomination with some proofs for its existence. Delegates, not confidence, will make the nomination at Chicago. The American Barrel of New Flour.—The Tribune of Saturday, says the barrel of new Georgia flour sent here to be sold for the benefit of the Calvary Episcopal Chiircb, at Americus, Geoigia, was purchased yesterday by Lang & Rob inson for $15. It was purchased on Wed nesday by E. J. Jennings for $20 and given back to be resold. It will now be sent to the Millers’ Association, London, to be sold again for the church. —It is going to require the services of a pretty able figurer to make a calculation of delegates elected and to be elected to Chicago which will nominate Grant. He has now only 224, and is 155 short of a majority. There are only 156 more to be elected, so that he cannot be nominated if he gets them all. As a matter of fact, he has no chance of getting more than eighty of these, and he may not get fifty of them Clearly the time has come for the third- termers to stop claiming and go to figur ing. —During a thunder storm at Province- town, Massachusetts, Thursday afternoon. Captain Elijah Doane and another man were out in the harbor in a laige sailboat, The lightning struck the mast, and fol lowing it down, went through the bottom of the boat, sinking her almost instantly. The men took to the dory and reached the shore safely. They did not feel the shock of the lightning, and hardly knew what the trouble was until they reached the shore, when the crowd who had been watching told them that the boat had been struck by lightning. —Freeman, the adventist, who killed his child at Pocasset, Massachusetts, about a year ago, was formally recommit ted to the Danvers (Massachusetts) insane asylum on Wednesday. During his con finement there he lias gained ten pounds, and is in excellent physical health. 'He is generally cheerful and hopeful, but is disinclined to talk on matters personal to himself, ne makes himself useful in do mestic work about the waid.. His de portment is perfect, and his influence upon the otherpatients with whom he is brought in contact is good. —A call is out for a meeting of colored citizens of Illinois, in Springfield, on Tuesday, July 20, “for the purpose of concentrating our [their] views upon some faint action as to how our [their] claims as colored citizens may find a good refor mation in the issue now pending before the coming national campaigns.” —A couple in the backwoods of Mich igan desired to marry, but they were not within reach of a clergyman or justice. There was not, in fact, a human being within twenty miles. So they wrote out as much of a marriage ceremony as they could remember, including affirmative re sponses, signed their names to the docu ment, and pronounced themselves hus band and wife. Hostility to General Grant.— The Cincinnati Commercial publishes the signatures of several hundred Republicans of that city, obtained in a few hours by two gentlemen, to a declaration of hostility to a third-term, to the extent of refusing to vote for General Grant if he is nomi nated. Tho list embraces many of the leading business men of Cincinnati. The gentlemen engaged in this matter state that if they had the time to go through the whole city the number of names might be increased to thousands. —George Eliot is about sixty. Her hair is not gray, nor her face wrinkled. Her eyes are tyue and her hair of a sandy color. She spends most of her time at home, and is dearly devoted to her little villa at 21 North Bank. She is about five feet three inches high; is very affable, a brilliant conversationalist; has a lovable disposition, and is popular; receives her frieuds every Sunday afternoon. She is generally abstracted, always thinking. Her voice is no louder than a whisper. —Five Chinamen went into the Com mon Pleas Court in New York, last Thursday, to be naturalized. They all have renounced their religion as well as their country, and have become Chris tians. Chang Lee said that he was thirty- two years old, had been three years in this country, and was a Methodist. George Lee and Sam Wing said they were Epis copalians. James Lee and Charles Chin said they were Methodists. All spoke English well, and declared that they had carefully considered the results of their expatriation upon their kinsmen at home and themselves if they returned. They said they didn’t care to vote, but they wanted the protection the law extended to citizens. —The Vienna Neue Freie Prcsse has tried the experiment of lighting its com posing room with electricity for the past two months, and announces its entire satisfaction with the result. Eight “dif ferential ” lamps supply a much better light than was before obtained from eighty gas jets. The printers, who are the best judges of the quality of the light and its effects upon the eyesight, are unanimous in its favor. The system em ployed is that of Siemens and Halske. A force equal to about three-fourths of one horse power per lamp is required for the electric machine. As to the expense com pared with gas, the Freie Preate says that Where water power can be employed, or where coal is cheap, the edvantage is de cidedly on the side of electricity. Cdngreu. Washington, May 10.—I* the Sen ate, the president pro tern, Mr. Thunnau, laid before the Senate a communication from the seoretary of the interior, stating that his estimates for deficiencies for the arrears of the army and navy pensions have been found' insufficient, and trans mitting an increased estimate of tlie saute. Several petitions in fevor of the Eaton tariff commission bill were presented, among them one very numerously signed by New England manufacturers, in offer ing which, Mr. Dawes called attention to the very laige number of such petitions presented since the bill was favorably re ported from the finance committee. He hoped the chairman of that committee would call up the bill out of its regular order, and seenre its passage. The de mand wa3for justice to all interests, and therefore for permanency. No class legis lation was asked for. There was amtaniiest impossibility in fully revising the tariff in committee of the whole of the Senate. Many fruitless attempts to harmonize and satisfy class interests bore out tills statement. The commission, which could give the subject full and deliberate consideration, would alone give satisfac tion to the manufacturing interests of the country, not now, as formerly, mainly confiued to one section, but extending over the whole country. Mr. Bayard, chairman of the finance committee, said the committee had shown their opinion of the merits of the bill in the best way open to them—namely, by reporting it promptly with a favorable recommendation. The last bill consid ered on the calendar was No. 304, the ta riff bill was No. 510. It was well known how slowly business of the calendar was disposed of, and yet how much opposition was always made to taking up out of its order any bill that would evidently lead to debate. He, personally, would use ev ery effort to get the bill considered. Mr. Platt believed there was a wide spread demand for the tariff commission ■and that there was & disposition in the Senate to consider it at an early day. Mr. Baja d said if possible he’would call the bill up in the morning hour to morrow. Washington, May 10 In the House, under the call of States, a number of bills were introduced, among which were the following: Ry Mr. Frost, of Missouri, a resolut ion calling on the secretary of state for infor mation os to whether any official notifica tion or circular letter was addressed by the department of state to foreign powers, or to ministers and consular agents of the United States for presentation to foreign governments, upon the occasion of the re cent visit to foreign lands by General U. S. Grant, or immediately prior thereto, in relation to said visit, and its nature and character, and all correspondence relative thereto. On motion of Mr. House, of Tennessee, a bill was passed requesting the President to open such negotiations with France, Austria and Italy as he may deem advisa ble,witlia view to removing the restrictions on the importation of tobacco into those countries. Mr. Wright, of Pennsylvania, offered a resolution declaring that after the 15tli iut stant, sessions of the House shall begin a- eleven o’clock. Adopted without objec tion. A bill was passed dividing the State of Louisiana into two judicial districts. This is the bill originally introduced by Mr. King, of Louisiana. Mr. McGowan, of Michigan, from the committee on epidemics, reported back a joint resolution requesting the President to call an international sanitary confer ence, to meet at Washington. Passed. Mr. Stephens, of Georgia, chairman of the committee on coinage, reported a res olution requesting the director of the mint to cause to be struck off for the use of senators and members, an additional three hundred each of the specimen stel- lar-goioid dollar, and the metric silver dollar, the same to be furnished only on payment of the value of metal. Adopted. Mr. Cabell, of Virginia, introduced bill allowing tobacco manufacturers to import liquorice and liquorice paste in bond, and exempting the same from duty. Referred. Mr. Atkins, of Tennessee, chairman of the committee on appropriations, reported tho legislative, executive and judicial ap propriation bill. Ordered printed and re- comm itted. It recommends an appropria tion of $16,120,930 as against $15,527,938 appropriated by the bill of last year, and as against an estimate of $16,092,920. The House then at 4:30 took a recess until 8 o’clock, the evening session to be for debate only. Washington, May'10—In the Senate, Mr. Garland said he hoped the Eaton hill would speedily come up, when he would offer the bill which he introduced two years ago for a tariff commission, a bill which differed from Mr. Eaton’s bill mainly in providing for a hoard of com missioners which should be composed partly of members of Congress.. Mr. Bayard said the finance committee had shown their opinion of the merits of the bill in the best way open to them, nrmely: by reporting it promptly with a favorable recommendation. He, person ally, would use every effort to get the bill considered soon. Mr. Beck wished it understood that the report of the finance committee was not unanimous. He would oppose'the hill to advocate that of Mr. Garland. He did not want Congress to put its business into the hands of outsiders, especially as it ap peared in this case that the petitions for the bill were all on one side—“machine petitions.” Mr. Burnside moved to postpone the calendar and consider the House joint resolution relative to extending the na tional survey into the States. Agreed to, and the joint resolution taken up. It pro vides tlia* the national survey authorized by the sundry civil act of 1879 may be ex tended into the States. The Senate com mittee on appropriations propose to amend, so that it may bo extended into the respective States, “when requested Dy the authorities thereof.” Mr. Dawes thought the extension of the government survey into organized States, would lead to unlimited expense. Mr. Booth said the resolution practically authorized the director ofsurveys to extend his survey over the whole country. There would be no difficulty in getting the con sent'of the States. There would rather he competition among them for its bene fits. The result would be to survey the whole country under one head; it was simply impossible to make such a survey thoroughly, and at the same time im partially by the government bureau. Aside from the fact that State lines and State rights were to be disregarded, the suivey would degenerate into a means of setting forth the advantages of favored sections, and of favored individual owners in those sections. Mr. Jonas presented a petition from the chamber of commerce and cotton exchange of New Orleans, reciting that a state of affairs as regards levees on the Mississippi river has arisen, making it wholly out of the power of riparian owners to control the inroads of the mighty stream, and that the precautions which the State of Louisiana has taken to protect the people dwelling on its banks from inundation, are completely powerless cither to close the existing crevasses, or to guard against threatened ones. The petitioners also state that they feel satisfied from past and present experience that no Stale can give protection which is so urgently required. Therefore they urge Congress to take under supervision and control not only the levses hut also the currents and wa ters of the riTer. The petition is signed by William Cunningham, president of the New Orleans cottan exchange, and Cyras Bussey, president of the New Orleans chamber of commerce. ■ ■ Rending debate on this resolution, the morning hour expired, and Mr. Hoar pro ceeded to oppose the resolution declaring Spofford entitled to the seat now occupied by Kellogg. Mr. Hill, of Georgia, took the'floor, but yielded to other Senators, and will speak to-morrow. The leport of the conference committee dn the diplomatic and consular appropria tion bill, was presented by Mr. Eaton,and adopted. The Senate went into executive session, and when the doors re-opened, adjourned. Washington, May 11.—In the House, Mr. Tucker, of Virginia, from the com mittee on ways and means, reported the following bills, which were referred to the committee of the whole. To regulate duties on hoop hand and scroll iron. To regulate custom duties -on sugar. To regulate custom duties on certain articles named therein. Mr. Garfield submitted the report ot the minority upon the bill to regulate du ties on hoop bands and scroll iron which was order printed. In the Senate,the president pro tempore laid before the Senate a communication from the secretary of war recommending an appropriation of $76,000 to continue in service twenty clerks engaged in preparing reports to expedite the settlement of pen sion applications, and who otherwise will have to be discharged on the 30th proxi mo. The House committee on commerce, decided to-day to snake an effort to secure the passage of the river and harbor hill Monday next, under a suspension of the rules. The committee instructed Repre sentative McLane to report favorably to the House a hill appropriating a hundred thousand dollars for a hospital at New Orleans. The committee on ways and means to day took up the concurrent resolution re ferred to them, which provides for ad journment'on the 24th of May. Mr. Phelps offered as a substitute that Con gress adjourn on the 31st of May. On motion the consideration of the question was assigned for Thursday next, when a vote will be taken upon the substitute, and it is believed the committee will agree to report it to the House. The committee agreed , to take action upon Mr. Gibson’s income tax hill on Thursday, and instructed Mr. Tucker to report to the House the sugar bill and general tariff “bill, giving priority to the former. Washington, May 11.—In the Senate, at the expiration of the morning hour, the Senate concurred in the House amend ment to the joint resolution authorizinj the President to call an international sanitary conference. The amendment includes among the countries from which delegates are to be invited those subject to cholera. The Senate then resumed consideration of the Kellogg-Spofford resolutions, Mr. Hill, of Georgia, speaking in their sup port. He proposed, he said, to discuss chiefly the legal aspects of the case, giving the facts as far as necessary to illus trate principles- It was conceded, he said, on all hands, that a legislature was chosen in Louisiana in 1876. The_ question to be determined, then, is which body claiming to be the legislature was such legislature in fact. If the true legislature chose Spoffori, Kellogg was not entitled to his seat. Which, then, was the true legislature? The legislature of a State, Mr; Hill contended, is the body of persons invested with authority to make laws for the government of such State. It derives its powers to make such 1 aws solely from the people, under tho State constitution. This being so, it necessarily follows that the people who confer such powers upon the legislature, must alone have the right to say upon what body of men they con fer it. In other words, the State must de cide for itself what body constitutes its legislature, and no other person or power has any right to decide for the State this important question. The opinion has prevailed in some quarters that when there were two bodies State, each of which claimed to be the legislature, some power outside of the State—the Senate, for instance— could interfere and decide which was the legally organized body. In no possible contingency, Mr. Hill said, could such a doctrine hold good. If domestic violence prevented a State from determining for it self which was its true legislature, the President might be called upon to put down violence and remove obstructions, so as to give the State freedom to choose for herself her legislature; but, no power outside of the State had authority to make that choice for her. In the present case, the State of Louisiana recognized the Nicbolls legislature before Kellogg was seated by the Senate, and decided that the Packard legislature was a body whose enactments were not binding upon any person whatever, and whose appointees had no valid ti tles. Not only this, but she definitively recognized the Nicbolls legislature as for its whole term. It was absurd to sup pose that one body could be the legislature for one or two months and then another body become the legal assembly. The Nicbolls legislature was chosen in 1876 for two years, and was the only legal body for the entire two years. The Pack ard legislature had at no time whatever a legal standing. The State having de cided, where does the Senate get the pow er to reverse it? If such power existed, it would destroy the right of self-govern ment in the State. Mr. Hill would feel that he had discharged a duty, if to-day he' said nothing more than this one thing —that there could-he nothing more dan gerous than to say that the Sen ate, or any power but the State, could determine what was a legislature, If the Senate could go into a state and de cree that any uiob was its legislature, what would become of the State? He warned his friends from the -weaker part of the country to beware when the doctrine that the Senate could reverse the action of a State prevailed. States would be at the mercy of an outside, power, and would lose their rights forever. It has been shown that the Packard Legislature never passed an act which was obeyed by anybody in Louisiana. It was a body of conspirators against the will of the people, commenced by fraud, held together by force and controlled by bribery and-corruption. Mr. Hill then proceeded to discuss the theory of government under which the Senate was created, with a view to defining its functions and powers. He admitted it had the power to judge of the qualification of its own members, but it had no right to judge which of two bodies was the legislature of a State. All it could do was to ascertain which body the State itself recognized. With regard to the ar gument that the Senate, once having seat-, ed Kellogg, the case was then “reaadjudi- cataMr. Hill said no wrong action of the Senate should be permitted to deprive a State of its equal representation. Kel logg ought not to have been seated in the first place. His election was void, even admitting the legality of the legislature from which he claims to derive his title. BY TELEGRAPH BAY DISPATCHES. Northern Methodist Conference. Cincinnati, May 12.—A great crowd was present at the session of the Metho dist general conference this morning. Among the resolutions offered was one by Rev. Mr. Hammond (colored), of the Lex ington conference, for the election of col ored bishops. He supported this resolu tion ina very masterly speech, arguing that a church which had such a shining record as this has on the subject of human slavery, and that has stood so bravely by the colored race in all movements for its elevation, could not ask the nation to .do for the colered man that which the church denied. Loud and long applause fol lowed his speech. Dr. O’Neal, of the committee on epis copacy, said the committee already had the subject under consideration, and he could promise that it would he settled without prejudice and solely upon the consideration of the good of the church. The special order for ten o’clock, the election of bishops, was then taken up. No nominations were made. Twelve tel lers were appointed, and the secretary called the roll; each delegate, rising, an swered, received his ballot, and called out his vote. At the conclusion the tellers retired, with instructions not to divulge the result in any way, which should be known at the afternoon session. Bishop Simpson introduced a resolu tion, which was adopted, approving the project of holding a council in London in August 1881, and requesting the appoint ment of two persons to act with Bishop Simpson in behalf of this general confer ence in making arrangements, and also re questing that at least three bishops be ap pointed as delegates. Adjourned to meet at 2:30 p. m. - ' .Good Advice.—Governor Colquitt, Colonels Hardeman, Gartrell, Lester and perhaps others are strongly supported by their friends as gubernatorial candidates. It is some time yet till the convention meets, and it is uncertain who will receive the nomination. Meantime, let all en deavor to secure . harmony. Coneress. Washington, May 12.—In the House the speaker proceeded to call committees for reports. Bills were reportedand disposed of as follows: By WhitUiorne, of Tenues- .said as see, from the committee on naval affairs, for appointment of a commission to select a site on the northwest coast for a navy yard. Referred to the committee of the whole. By Goode, of Virginia, from the same committee, a bill authorizing the secretary of the navy to take necessary steps to se cure adequate coaling stations and har bors for the use of the United States naval forces at proper points on the Atlantic and Pacific coasts of Central America, and the American Isthmus. Placed, upon the House calendar. In the Senate, Mr. Ingalls, from the committee on Indian affairs, reported, with amendments, Senate bill to carry into effect the second and sixteenth arti cles of the treaty between the United States and the Great and Little Osage In dians, proclaimed January 1st, 1S67, which was placed on the calendar. A number of petitions were presented, and hills introduced and referred. On motion of Mr. Edmunds, the Senate resumed consideration of a bill to provide for ascertaining and settling private land claims in certain States and Territories. Washington, May 12.—The Senate committee on appropriations this morning received a report of the sub-committee on the post-office appropriation hill and after considerable discussion instructed Mr. Wallace to report the hill to the Senate with a number of important amendments. The committee will strike out the whole of the House requirement for re-letting ex pedited star service contracts and also the clause authorizing the postmaster general to remit in favor of the colonies of New Zealand and New South Wales so much of the charge for overland transportation Having finished his legal argument,' exercised a.ainat the Jesuits. Letters Mr. Hill spoke upon the general aspect of the case. After referring to the deplorable condition of the South at the close of the war, he said the troubles in the South since the war-have never had the slightest foundation in any disposition on the part of the Southern people to question or re sist the authority of the Federal govern ment. “I affirm, on the contrary, what I. far back as 186S — what I have repeated often, that if Con gress had taken upon itself to frame a constitutkm here for each of the Southern States, the Southern people would have accepted them and organized their governments under them, trusting to time, experience and wisdom to cure whatever defects they might have pos sessed. Neither ltave the troubles in the, South since the war grown out of natural antagonism between the two races. * There - has been no disposition on the part of the Southern whites to do iiijustice to the blacks. Where 'there have been troubles, they have come from the unlawful acts which disfranchised 250,000 of the very best peo ple of the South—men of property and experience who had been* intrusted with office. This, of itself, would not have been fatal, hut taken together with the enfranchisement of the blacks and disturbing influence of'the carpet baggers who come South to profit by the situation there,and whostirred updissen- sensions between the races to further their own ends,it was the cause of all its troub les. But Mr. Hill looked confidently to the Senate to prevent the disfranchise ment of a sovereign State, anil to remedy the wrongs of which the South complained At the conclusion of Mr. Hill’s speech, Mr. Hampton obtained the floor, but said he would prefer not to begin ins argu ment until Monday. Thereupon the Sen ate adjourned. The Senate in executive session to-day resumed the consideration of the nomina tion of Robert M. Wallace fer reappoint ment as United States marshal for South Carolina. Ilis confirmation was earnestly of Australian mails as ho may deem just, The committee add the following amounts to House items for the purposes named: $350,000 for railroad mail service, $25,000for pay of mail messengers and $75,000 for new mail locks. FOREIGN. Cotton Operatives’ Strike, Blackburn, May 12.—A meeting of delegates from twenty-five towns in the Northern counties, after hearing the re sult of the Manchester meeting, resolved to recommend the operatives to remain at work. A meeting of 8,000 weavers, how ever, resolved to strike. From 27,000 to 35,000 operatives will be thrown idle this morning on account of the strike. Many towns in north and northeast Lancashire have promised to support the strike. A protracted strug gle is apprehended, and precautions against rioting have been taken. Manchester, May 12.—The Manches ter Guardian, in its commercial article this morning, says the strike by the Blackburn cotton operatives and the “short time” by which it will be accompanied in other districts in North Lancashire have exercised no perceptible influence on this market. The supply of goods in com parison with current requirements is am ple, and buyers do not seem to anticipate any scarcity. The masters’ association of Oldham recommend a week’s holiday. Paris, May 12.—A semi-official note has been sent to the provincial papers, stating that directors of unauthorized re ligious communities, seeming resolved to await the delay fixed’by the decrees with out demanding authorization, and then if expelled, to invoke the law against viola tion of domicile and property, the gov ernment lm taken measures to meet that emergency. The prefects, as soon as the military councils of revision have finished their labors, will be summoned to Paris to receive verbal instructions regarding the carrying out of the decrees. Weit Virginia Republican Conven tion. Wheeling, May 12.—The Republican State convention met this morning in the opera house. About 200 delegates are in attendance, and all counties are represent ed. Ex-Governor Stevenson, of Wood county, was elected temporary chairman. The usual committees were appointed, and the convention took a recess. Foreign. London, May 12.—Tho race for the Payne stakes for three year old colts and fillies came oil' to-day at the Newmarket second spring meeting, and was won by Princo Soltakoll’s chestnut colt, Mask; R. C. Naylor’s bay colt, the Abott, sec ond; L. E. Walker’s hay or brown filly,' Elizabeth, third. Twelve ran. Bordeaux, May 12.—A fire has been raging here since 9 o’clock this morning in the bonded warehouse on Rue Dacalan. The building is the property of the cham ber of commerce, and is stored with alco hol, ram, absinthe and other articles. It is almost impossible to subdue the flames. The adjacent communal school house is iu great danger. Congress. Washington, May 12.—In the Senate, after some debate on the land claims bill, the morning hour expired, and the bill went over without action. Mr. Hill then resumed his argument in support of the resolutions to unseat Kel logg. He took up the cipher dispatches produced before the committee, and gave a translation of a number of them, with comments of his own, to show their significance. In view of these tele grams, he said, no intelligent man could doubt that the power of the- government had been employed in suborning witnesses. A review of the evidence shows that there was no quorum on the day of the Senatorial election, and that most of those present were bribed. Even admitting for tho sake of argument that the Packard legislature was a lawful body, these facts were sufficient to unseat Kellogg. At tho time of the first investi gation by the Senate, the evidence of brib ery and of no quorum in the Packard leg islature, was not considered. The case therefore was not adjudicated on a full examination of facts. It was competent, he said, even in a court, to go behind the prima facie appearance of settlement to prove that certain facts were ignored. Mr. Hill then reviewed the evidence ta ken by the committee, to show that the Packard legislature had no quorum at the time of Kellogg’s election. Continuing, he said that the Republicans had refused to accept the decision made by the State of Louisiana, when it recognized the Nicholls legislature. They insisted upon going back to the returning board, and deciding upon the correctness of its ac tions. The electoral commission dose was ap plied to the action of the Senate to aid a partisan necessity, and evidence of bribery and fraud was admitted. The principle upon which the people hadbeendefrauded of their president in 1876, was employed to defraud the State of Louisiana of her Senator in 1877, against the protest of the Democrats. Now it was said that the Democrats were to help the Republicans to perpetuate this iniquity. If they did, they admitted that the Democratic party for three years had been slandering the returning hoard of Louisiana: that, after all, it committed no fraud. They made the returning hoard respectable, and brought the electoral commission into credit and themselves into shame. If they did this thing, they ought to go down on their knees to Wells, Casauave, and Kenner, and beg their pardon for slandering them. Mr. Hill insisted on this point be cause he had resented this attempt. to bring a Democratic Senate to endorse the action of the electoral commission. He begged his Democratic colleagues not to fall into this trap. There was a cry that to unseat a Senator would- endanger the right of every other Senator to his 3eat. “But,” said Mr. Hill, “let every Senator do his duty. No one lawfully entitled to his seat need fear such a precedent: Some said the proper remedy in such a case as this was expulsion.” Mr. Hill thought expulsion the proper remedy when the question involved was the,' character of the incumbent. When, however, it was the constitutionality of his election and the maintenance of the rights of a State, it was not a proper remedy. 1 opposed by the South Carolina Senators, and after" a long discussion his nomina tion was rejected by r, strict party vote. In the nouse the following bills were reported: By Mr. Siemens, of Arkansas, from the committee bn railways and canals, a bill to incorporate the Cherokee and Arkansas River railroad company. Placed on the calendar. By Mr. McLane, of Maryland, from the committee on commerce, to establish marine hospitals at New Orleans and Baton Rouge. Referred to the committee of the whole. A bill was reported from the committee on public buildings for the erection of a building at Charlotte. The House then went into commit tee of the whole on the legislative 'appro priation bill. After the consideration of fifteen pages, without making any impor tant changes, the committee rose. The House then took a reces3 until 7:30, the evening session to be for the considera tion of the District code bill. The Prevalent to-day sent to the Senate the nomination of John S. Bigby, of New- nan, Georgia, to be United States attor ney for the State of Geoigia. Michigan Republicans. Detroit, May 12.—The Republican State convention met this forenoon. Cap- taui'C. Kullen was chosen temporary chairman. After the appointment of the usual committees, the convention took recess till this evening. The district del egations during the forenoon selected the eighteen district delegates to which Michigan is entitled. The majority are for Blaine. Detroit, May 12.—The convention re assembled this afternoon and adopted res olutions pledging the hearty support of the Republicans of the State to the nomi nee of the Chicago convention, but favor ing the nomination of J. G. Blaine, and instructing the delegates to use all proper efforts to secure it. A resolution was also adoptedjfavoring Thomas W. Ferry for Vice-President. The delegates at largo were then chosen. They are all strong Blaine men. Florida Republicans. Gainesville, Fla., May 12.—The Republican State convention met at noon to-day. After a temporary organization wa3 effected, Hon. W. W. Hicks offered the following resolution, which was passed without opposition: Resolved, by the Republicans of Florida, in State convention assembled, that the delegates e ected to the Chicago conven tion be and they are hereby instructed to vote as a unit for President and Vice President, and to cast the vote of Florida for U. S. Grant for President—so Iorg as he is a candidate before that convention— and for Thomas Settle, of Florida, for Vice President. After the appointment of a committee on credentials and one on permanent or ganization, the convention took a reces3 until five o’clock. Wisconsin Democrats. Madison, May 12.—The Democratic State convention was called to order at noon. Dr. J. D. Whiting, of Janesville^ was made temporary chairman.
