MuNtuomkky, Maroh 10. In Senate to-day Mr. Little moved to reconsider tlm vote of yesterday taxing Express companies four thousand dollars. He said that the law would not go into effect until next year, and proper con sideration had not been given it. The vote was reconsidered and the bill re ferred to Finance and Taxation. Bill to declare die right of certain persons, M. ,T. Saffold and others, to compensation on account of the swamp and overflowed lands, was taken up and discussed at some length, but no action was had. The Constitutional Convention bill was taken up, discussed and amend ed, and ordered to a third reading to morrow. Bill to allow a re hearing of the ease of Coleman vs. Chisolm before the Supreme Court was passed. The claim of Judge C. is that the State owes him some S'.OKW as Judge dur ing the latter years of the war and before reconstruction. Court decided against the claim. In the contested election case from j Russell county, the committee sub-1 mltted an agreement between the sit- j ting members anil the contestants, together with a report that the eon-j testants were entitled to seats. After u long discussion the report was agreed to, and Messrs. VV. H. Cham bers and A. G. Jones came forward and were sworn in. Prince Gardner and W. J. Daniels, negroes, the sit ting members, ‘‘stepped down and out.” The consideration of the revenue and registration bill consumed the balance of the, day. TKLHGIt irilH I’llitlS.

Immedi ately after the reading of the Jour nal, there being no other business presented, Mr. Merrimon resumed his remarks on the resolution for the admission of Mr. I’lohbaek. Ho cited the ease of Mr. Stark, of Oregon, who was appointed by the Governor of that State to till a vacancy; his credentials were in due form, but ob jection was made, they were refused, and on investigation Mr. Stark was admitted. He also cited the oases of Mr. Goldthwaito of Alabama, Mr. Blodgett of Georgia, and lastly, his colleague, Mr. Ransom of North Car olina, whose credentials were in due form, but none of whom were admit ted. The credentials were all referred for examination, and although Mesrs. Goldt h waite and Ransom were Anally admitted, they wore kept out of their seats for months. He then argued that McEnery was elected Governor of Louisiana by ten thousand majority; that Govern ment would have been inaugurated and would have been recognized by the whole people of the State, but tortile interference of the Federal army. The President had himself stated Kellogg could not be main tained in power for one instant unless by aid of the troops of the United States. The Senate know, the world know, that the McEnery Govern ment was suppressed by the army of the United States, The Lynch Board which declared for Kellogg, was not a legal board, and had no returns before it. The defunct board which found McEnery elected Governor, had the legal returns before it. Mr. M. maintained that in no possible aspect of tlie case could Kellogg be regarded as Governor tht farto. He was a usurper and nothing but a usurper. In reference to the Su preme Court of Louisiana recognizing the Kellogg Government he referred to a dispatch of Collector Casey of December 10th, 1872, saying the Su preme Court is known to be in sym pathy with the Republican State Government. How did Casey know this? Any set of Judges who would make known their opinions in ad vance ought to be impeached. In re gard to the House passing rcsolttions recognizing the Kellogg Government, he denied its authority under the Constitution for the House to recog nize a State Government. Neither the House nor the Senate had any au thority to do such an act. The House had, moreover, stultified itself in this matter, for after passing a resolution recognizing the Kellogg Government, it had admitted to seats members elected on the McEnery ticket, lie said that, if ho, (Mr. M.) had the ear of the President he would urge and implore him to undo the error which he had committed in sustaining this Kellogg usurpation, and if the Presi- i dent would not retrieve this disgrace, j Congress ought to reverse his action ; and restore the lawful government of : the State of Louisiana. The Senate then went into execu tive session and t hen adjourned. M ISCKI.I.ANIOOH. Gen. Sheridan called ut the White House this morning and liadun inter view with the President. By direction of Secretary Bristow ■81,285,100 in legal tenders will be burned to-morrow, and lie deducted from amount outstanding. Internal Revenue receipts to-day 330,552,017; Custon receipts $37,859,- 777 ; National Bank notes received for redemption to-day $399,600. CONFIRMATIONS. The Senate, in Executive session to-day, conlirmed the following nom inations: Chou. H. Belvin, Pension Agent, Raleigh, N. ;A. J. Kansior, Collector Internal Revenue, 2d Dis trict, S. C.; Alonzo Webster, Post- ] master at Orangeburg, S. ('. GRANT RKOOUNI/.KN THK OAKLAND OOV- F.RNMF.NT. At the Cabinet session on Tuesday the question of recognizing the Gar land Government in Arkansas, was discussed. The discussion being par ticipated in by all members. Asa result of the discussion the President announced to the Cabinet his deter mination to recognize the Garland Government, and requested that the different Cabinet officers take the necessary steps to inaugurate the same official relations between the various departments of the general government and the State of Arkan sas as exist between the departments and other States of the Union. j The centennial commissioners ap ! pointed some time since by Gov. Gar j land will be recognized at the De j partment of State, and the quota of ! arms due the State can now be drawn. , THE REVENUE ON MOLASSES AND CIGARS. The Treasury Department instructs collectors of customs under the new j tax and tariff bill that they must col lect twenty-five per cent, additional duty on molasses, and that anew stamp of six dollars per thousand is required on all imported cigars.

I The report of the Secretary of the I State Grange shows that there are i 1,053 granges in Tennessee, with a j membership of 35,000, and a balance, i of $3,i3G 90 in the treasury. COLUMBUS, GA., THURSDAY, MARCH 11, 1875. MAV llAnmillHE. RESULT OF THE ELECTION DOUBTFUL. Concord, March 10. Late returns of the night seem to have changed the face of the election somewhat, making what at an only hour seemed an overwhelming Republican victory rather doubtful. Returns of the Con gressional districts are meagre and insufficient to indicate results posi tively. 'The Republicans claim to have elected their Governor, but the latest returns have reduced the figures so that no eleotionby the peo ple seems not improbable. Concord, March 10.—Returns from 202 towns give Cheney 37,213; Roberts 36,520; White and scattering 712. There will be no choice of Governor by the people. In the Senate five if not six Republicans are elected in one or two districts. MAY tVVtll. Special to the Times, by 8. A A. Lino.) A MIRACULOUS ESCAPE. Savannah, March 10. One of the most miraculous escapes we have just learned of, by arrival at this port of the schooner E. & Y. W. Hinds, Cnpt. H. C. Dill, from New York, with a full cargo in port con sisting of engine and boilers for the City Water Works and two and a half tons of powder immediately un der the after-hatch. The Hinds en countered a furious gale, losing her jibboons, had her long boat stove, several barrels of kerosene broke from their lashings, and for the safe ty of the vessel had to bo gotten rid of, which was done by knocking in the heads of the barrels, allowing the contents to escape on deck. While the mate was in act of cutting in the head of one barrel, ho was ap proached by the Captain, carrying a lantern. The oil immediately took fire and the whole deck was almost instantly in a sheet of flames, setting tiro to the gaily and burning one side to u cinder and with the oil, con tinued to burn until the deck was re lieved of the fluid, which was car ried off into the water through the scuppers. A more desperate situa tion for a vessel or crow could scarce ly occur; or could a vessel’s crow be put in a more trying situation, either the vessel foundering, burning up, or blowing up, but from an extraor dinary exercise of nerve. THE CHARLESTON, SAVANNAH AND FLOR IDA LINE OF STEAMERS. On and after tho 17th instant, the steamers City Point and Dictator, of the Charleston, Savannah and Flor ida Line, will discontinue their trips via Savannah. They will leave Char leston direct, every Wednesday and Sunday tit, noon. This change, we understand, has been made in con formity with wishes of sojourners in Florida who desire to return home via Charleston. VI \CO\. MILITARY PARADE M. &R. It. It. FARE HILLS—THE RIVER, TRADE, ETU. Macon, Ga., March 10.- Tho parade of the second Georgia battalion came off to-day. The Baldwin Blues came over this morning to particiapate in it. The battalion was in command of Major Jones, who was mounted. Tlie Macon companies were out in large force, and crowds of people at tlie park to witness it. The fare bills issued by tho Macon and Brunswick Railroad Company will not be redeemed after the 15th of April. The river is falling rapidly. Weath er bright and spring like. Trade is improving. The Blues returned to Miltedgeville at 7:30 this evening, after having a good time. •~ • . InvestlwnUon of I.ouliana Attain*. Washington, March 10.—Represent ative Wheeler received from New Or leans his articles of adjustment, signed by forty-four members of the Conservative caucus, an ample num ber to secure the desired result. He telegraphed Gov. Kellogg to forward by telegraph to tho city of New York papers now in tlie office of the Secre tary of State, which were used in the contested coses before tho Returning Board in November last. Tho referees will meet to-morrow at tho office of Hon. Wm. Walter Phelps, in the city of New York, and proceed with a hearing. The Ice Horwc In the Maryland Ulvrr. Port Deposit, Md., March 10,7 in M. There is no great change in the riv er and ice at this place. Notwith standing the moderation in the weather, several small channels have been opened opposite the town du ring the last few days, among the smaller islands, and indications are such that we are sanguine of little or no trouble. Persons appear to rest I easy about the ice now, but have not I moved baek to their vacated homes. I The ice below and opposite the town | appears as solid and strong it did a ! week ago. 1 Another Female Lawyer. Miss ICaroline M. Burnham, of Philadel ; phia, has applied for permission to i practice before the Supreme Court of the District of Columbia. Her appli cation has been referred to an exam ining committee by the court in gen eral terra. Miss Burnham has studied law, and although she has never been admitted to the Philadelphia bar, she has been connected with a law firm in that city for several years past. The Supreme Court of the city liav ing admitted one lady (Mrs. Belva A. Lockwood) to practice, it is probable that the present applicant will be ad mitted in case her examination is a satisfactory one. f'ltok County, 111., National Hank llr ftclt. Chicago, March 10.—Tho deposition of Bank examiner Spink, who ex amined tho defunct Cook county National Bank, shows that Allen is indebted to the Bank in sum of $849,- 841 94, and that Allen is also liable to said Bank or its Receiver for benefit of its creditors, in the further sum of $238,800 for stock held in his own name; that it will require every dol lar of stock liability, and much more, to pay the indebtedness of said Bank. The application in bankruptcy was placed on file and will come up for healing on tho 16th. Marine IJltelllKrnce. New York, March 10.—Arrived; steam ship Acapulco, of the Pacific Mail Line. Sailed: steamship Colon, of same line, for Asplmvall. Savannah, March 10. Arrived: British bark Sunbeam, steamship Sun Jacinto, from Now York; Wyoming from Philadel phia. Sailed ; steamship Cleopatra, for New York; Carroll, for Boston. A game called "lamora” is played in St. Louis bar-rooms. Its advan tage is that nothing but lingers is re quired. Each player puts his right hand, palm downward, on tho bar, extending as many lingers as he chooses. Then they guess how many lingers both together have out, and tho one who comes nearest to correct ness scores one point. Twelve points make a game; thumbs rate the same as lingers; and when the guesses are equally good, neither counts. “La mora” is an Italian diversion, brought over by emigrants. A red-haired lady, who was ambi tious of literary distinction, found but a poor sale for her book. A gentle man, in speaking of her disappoint ment, said, “Her hair is rod [read] if her book is not.” An auditor, in at tempting to relate the joke elsewhere, said, “Site has red hair, if Iter book hasn’t.” Tlie French military authorities are about to organize a carrier-pigeon post between frontier fortresses, on the plan already adopted by Russia, Italy, Austria and Germany. Two thousand pairs of pigeons, it is said, uro being trained fortiio purpose. In the recent snow a favorite breed ing ewe of the Cheviot class, belong ing to Mr. Elliott, of Hindhope in England, was imprisoned in the snow fora month. Notwithstanding the long imprisonment, the ewe when re covered was alive, and is now doing well. "You say,” said a judge to a wit ness, “that the plaintiff resorted to an ingenious use of circumstantial evidence; state just, exactly what you mean by that.” “Well,” said the witness, "my exact meaning is that lie lied." The ghost of Noah Webster came to a spiritual medium in Alabama, not long since, and wrote on a slip of paper: "It is tile times.” Noah was riglit, but we are sorry to see he iias gone back on his dictionary. Upon inquiry at slaughter-houses, it is found that there are nearly two hundred persons in Now York who are in tlie habit of drinking blood flowing warmly from oxen for strengthening purposes and for tlie cure of certain diseases. It is said that charcoal will fatten fowls and at the same time give the meat improved tenderness and flavor. Pulverize and mix with the food. A turkey requires about a gill a day.
