To fix the salaries of legislators at twenty dollars and five emits per mileage instead of per diem. The consideration of thebili to cau eel all interest coupons on State obli gations as fast as they were paid into the Treasury, consumed much time. It was made the special order for next Monday. The bill to allow the East Ala bama and Cincinnati, and Selma and Gulf railroads to give tip endorsed bonds of SIG,(KIO per mile, and receive State bonds at the rate of $4,000 per mile, was discussed, and made the special order for to-morrow.

The anniversary of the birth ol Emperor William of Germany is on the 22d lost., when ho will have at tained the ripe age of 77 years. We learn that there is a movement on foot to commemorate this event by some celebration. The project has not assumed a definite shape as yet, but it is proposed that the German Volunteers and German Societies pa rade in the afternoon and have a ball at night. The affair would no doubt prove very successful. yilws (Tara Morris, the Tragedienne, San FbaxcisCO, Mur. 9.

Archbishop a Cardinal. New York, March 9.—Rumors were in circulation here this afternoon that a telegram had been received from Rime and London announcing that the Pope had appointed Archbishop MoClosky to be a Cardinal. THE DAILY TIMES. WASIIIXf.TOX. Special to the Daily Times, Vy S. A A. Liu®.] SENATE PROCEEDINGS. Washington, March 9. The Seo t rotary of the Senate read letters from the Vice President, stating that an absence of two or three days from the city would prevent him from be ing present to-day. Mr. Ferry was then elected Presi dent pro tern., and was conducted to the Chair by Mr. Thurman. On motion of- Mr. Anthony, the Secretary was then directed to in form the President of the election of Mr. Perry as President pro torn. Mr. Sargent presented the creden tials of his colleague, Mr. Booth, which were read, and Mr. Booth was sworn in. The unfinished business being a resolution for the admission of Pinehbaek, was then taken up, and Mr. Morton resumed his remarks from the point where he suspended yesterday. In reference to the action of Judge Durell, he, Mr. M., did not undertake to justify it, but it was jus tified by able lawyers on this floor and elsewhere. He believed such was the opinion of the Attorney General. The question Is, after all, not whether Durell had a right to interfere, but whether the Kellogg government had a right to organize, and having that right, as has been decided by the tri bunals of the State, it was of no con sequence who Interfered to assist it to organize. Mr, Merrimon expressed his pleas ure nt hearing Mr. Morton say yes terday, that this was a ques tion which was above all par ty, He concurred entirely with that Senator, and ho hoped every Senator would cast his vote on this question in entire accordance with the consti tution and the laws. He argued that it was not a prime facie case. It had been contended that the Legislature which elected Pinehbaek was not the lawful Legislature, that the Gov ernor and .Secretary of the State, who signed his credentials were usurpat ing officers; that the great seal put on them was not the great seal of the ■State. The doubts which had been suggested in these points, existed not only here, but thoroughout the country, all of Which went very far against making this ease a prima fiir'ii- ease; ho denied that all the uses cited by Mr. Morton were analogous, although some of them were. In regard to the ease of Gen. Shields, that gentleman had come here fresh from Mexico; there was a disposition to do him honor; lie was admitted, and sat here for mouths, voting on grave questions, and after his case was examined into it was found that he was not eligible, and he was turned out. This was a good ease to show why the Senate should not follow such a precedent. He quo ted trom the. action of the Semite in refusing to admit Senators from Ar kansas and Louisiana, in 1884, al though, as reported by the Judiciary Committee, their credentials wore regular in form. He, Hr. M.,) wu.su candidate for Governor of North Car olina, in 1872; it was the common be lief of the people that, he was elected by five to ten thousand majority of the lawful vote, but. tho Federal Ad ministration used the whole power of its patronage in that State, and his successor was declared elected. There would have been just as much propriety in his claiming to be Gov ernor of North Carolina, and asking the Federal Courts to put him in power, as there was in Kellogg doing it. Without concluding, Mr. Merrimon gave way, and the Senate went into executive session. Adjourned. NOMINATIONS. The President sent the following nominations to the Senate to-day : Don A. Pardee, U. S. District Judge for Louisiana; W. W. Dedriek, Attor ney for U. S. Southern District of Mississippi; H. S. Glover,Postmaster at Macon, Ga. CONFIRMATIONS. The Senate in executive session this afternoon confirmed the following nominations: G. S. Orth, of Indiana, Minister to Austria and Hungary ; Horace F. Maynard, of Tennessee, Minister Res ident of the United States at Constan tinople ; Lemuel Evans, U. S. Mar shal for Eastern District of Texas, vice Thomas P. Ochiltree. I ll; ice (.orpe In Hie Delaware. Special to tho Timkk by H. A A. Line.] Washington, March 9. —A special from Port Jervis says the immense ice gorge in tho Delaware river still holds the people in great fear. For the past three days the river seemed to be falling, but the heavy rain Sun day night swelled it considerably, and last night it rose over a foot. It is now within two feet of the suspen sion bridge. For a mile or more up the river the ice is piled up at various places eight or ten feet, and when it moves it will strike the bridge like a battering-ram and very likely carry it away. About GO buildings on the flats have been deserted by the occupants, who have fled to higher ground for safety. The destruction of these buildings by the iee when it moves is inevitable. At some points below here ice is piled up twenty feet. A large proportion of the Erie Railroad track will probably .be carried away by the ice when its movements occur, which must bo very soon. An at tempt is to be made to-night to blast with nitroglycerine. Should the bridge be carried away, a great por- j tion of the town in and about the. COLUMBUS, GA., WEDNESDAY, MARCH 10, 1875. railroad depot will probably go be fore the flood. When the sweep comes it will not unlikely be attend ed by loss of life, as many of the peo ple refuse to move from their houses. ItItOOKIAY. ANOTHER ABORTION CASE. Special to tho Times by 8. A* A. Hue.] Brooklyn, March 9.—Detectives are just now engaged In unearthing facts in a notorious abortion ease which has just come to light, the vic tim being Miss Antoinette Fenner, aged 28 years, daughter of very re spectable parents.
