In the i Semite there was n long discussions over the bill to send commissioners to the Philadelphia Centennial. Many Senators thought next year was time enough. The bill ilnully ■passed.

The time of the House was eon burned on the Convention bill, as all (the Radicals spoke against it. Tho | [ bill finally passed by a strict party! ■vote. It was amended by the House ibttt the Senate will concur. Till: !!!.% li llll,l>. [Special to Daily Timi.h, hy 8. A V Line.) BHE ADMINISTRATION CONSIDERING THI REMOVAL OF THE INDIANS. [ Washington, March Hi, At the: Cabinet session to-day, the only im- 1 bortant question was that of protect - : png tho Black Hills country from fur ther invasion, by the different expe ditions now being organized in the West, and excepting tho whites who [have already obtained a foothold in that country. By the terms of the [existing treaty' between the United fctates and Sioux Indians. The latter arc to be protected in their rights, as owners of the Black Hills country; but negotiations arc now in pro gress between tho Government and the Indians, with a view to moving the Indians to some other locality, and opening the Black Hills to settle ment. Overtures of this character huve several times been rejected by the ludiaii-, who seemed to fully ap preciate the value of their country, and it is not likely they will accede to the latest proposal of the Govern ment to buy out their title and re move them to a reservation. The jchole question was fully discussed to-day, and after the adjournment of the Cabinet tho following communi cation was, by direction of the Presi dent, sent to General Sherman at St. Louis: All expeditions Into that por tion of the Indian Territory known as the Black Hills country, must be pre vented as long as the present treaty exists. Efforts are now being made to arrange for the.extinguishment of the Indian title, and all proper means w ill be used to accomplish that end. If, however, the steps which arc to be taken towards tho opening of tho Country to settlement fail those persons at present within that terri tory Without authority must he re pelled. It is understood that as soon as tho weather permits sucli disposition Will be made of the United States forces in the Indian country as will effectually block the road to the lilaek Hills country against any and all contemplated expeditions in that direction ; and in caSe the negotia tions mentioned above should fail, the troops will be ordered to visit the Black Hills and expel the whites who have without authority secured a footing bed. Kills;tit. Templar ol OlnnMtlrnt. Bridgeport, Conn., March lfl.—The annual eonclavo of the Grand Com mandery of Knights Templar of the State of Connecticut, was held to-day. All the grand officers were present, except 8 Knight Totten of New Haven, who died during the year. Tiie en tire Commanderies of the State were fully represented. The meeting was of great interest and important legis lation was made tho interest of tho Order. The election for officers for the ensuing year was held this after noon. —At a large meeting of the weavers who have been on a strike at Fall River for the past month, held yes terday afternoon, it was unanimously voted to ratify the recommendation of the Weavers’ Convention that they return to work Thursday morning. Great rejoicing by all parties at the settlement of the strike. THE DAILY TIMES. IVAHIIIMITOX. Special to the Trails by S. fc A. Lino.] SENATE PROCEEDINGS. Washington, March Hi. The reso lution for tho admission of Pinch bai'k was proceeded with. Mr. Alcorn said that he, as one of the members of tho Committee on Privileges and Elections, had signed the report made in 1873 in favor of ordering a now election. At this time, however, he regarded the ques tion of anew election os postponed indefinitely. The House of Repre sentatives, tho popular branch of government, had recognized the Kel logg government as the legal govern ment of tho State, and the arbitra tion now in progress bid fair to re sult in the adjustment of all the pending difficulties, as it was organ ized with the consent of botli tho contending parties. He said that the action of tho House was a practical recognition of tho legality of the Kellogg government, and was so un derstood by tho American people. He then said that ho should vote for l’inehbaek; that he thought tilings were tending towards peace in Lou isiana; that l’inehbaek was a repre sentative of his race, which was in the majority in Louisiana; that ho came with the credentials signed by a Governor who.had been recognized as entitled to bis office. He would vote for his admission, believing that no would bo justified 1 icfore the jieo ple for so doing. Mr. Edmunds said the reason given by Mr. Alcorn thut bis claimant should be admitted because ho was a representative of his race, was the most weighty reason that had boon adduced in his behalf. If the Senate were the supreme tribunal of the universe, this might be a sufficient reason why the claimant should be admitted in order that there might be a colored Senator on this tloor to represent his race; but unfortunately the Senate was bound by the Consti tution and the laws, and must decide according to thorn. Our mission is to decide whether the claimant was legally elected. He then read from tho Constitution of Louisiana, prescribing that tho re turns of the elections shall be sent to the Secretary of State, and by him transferred to tiie Legislature. The Constitution of Louisiana meant that the original papers, expressing the will of the people on tiie day of elec tion, should be canvassed, and not any paper, or set of papers, made up afterwards by a body of men unknown to tho Constitution or the State. He asked was there any Senator on tlds tloor who would assert to tiie contra ry? The consecration of Louisiana on this point was almost tho same as the consecration of the, United States in reference to tho electoral vote. What would be thought of a states man who would attempt to have a law passed providing that a return ing board, appointed by the Presi dent, should canvass the vote for President and Vice President, and that the President should declare tho election on their canvass. Instead of on tho returns sent t" him according to the Constitution? It was tho duty of the Senate in deciding upon this ease, to ascertain whether tho claim ant was elected Senator by a Legisla ture, the members of which had been declared elected on a canvass of re turns as prescribed by tho Constitu tion, or on returns canvassed by an intermediate body unknown to the Constitution. Mr. Howe said the Senator from Vermont was a very able and acute lawyer, and if any one could defend tho cause he had espoused that Sena tor was the man. But the Senator, notwithstanding his ability, utterly failed to convince him (Mr. II.), still it was delightful to hear, as was the case now and then on this floor, a Democratic speech from a Republi can ; but it would bo more delightful to hear a Republican speech from a Democrat. Thut we never have hoard and never will. Mr. H. then defended the action of the Lynch Board, and argued that Kellogg re ceived the majority of the votes put in tho ballot boxes on election day. The Legislature wiiich elected Pinch back was the. undoubted legal Legis lature of the State, as it made the laws of the State. Without conclud ing Mr. IT. gave way, and the Senate went into executive session, after which it took recess till 7:30 i\ m. EVF.NINO SESSION. The Senate reassembled at 7:30 v. m. Mr. Howe resumed his argument. He considered it was his duty to fol low the decision of the Supreme Court of Louisiana, because he thought i that Court understood the ease of the State as well, if not better, than the Senate. He mentioned that the Lynch Board was the legal returning board, and had the authority to declare who I were elected members of the Legis- I lature. Pinchbaok, he argued, was j elected by the legal Legislature, and ; should bo admitted. Mr. Logan argued that tho Senate ! should declare either the Kellogg or | the McEnery government the legal ! government of Louisiana, or that | there was no government in the State iat all. Ho maintained that either the j Kellogg government must be declared an Illegal government, or Pinchbaok ! must be admitted. The two eases go {together, and one is as broad as the | other. Ho then spoke of the appeals | made here on this floor to Senators to rise above party considerations. He said these appeals were some times responded to by those on this side, but he had never seen an occa- COLUMBUS, GA., WEDNESDAY, MARCH 17, 1875. sion where those, on tho other side, who were so fond of making such appeals, voted for a Republican. Mr. Morton said tho last Demo crat io speech he had made was In 1852, and if he could not. bo forgiven for that after the lapse of twenty throe years he never would bo forgiv en. If it was to bo thrown in his face that lie made Democratic speeches twenty-throe years ago, what was to bo thought of Republicans who make Democratic speeches on this floor in 1875. [Applause in the galleries.] He argued that the Kellogg govern ment represented a majority of the people of Louisiana. Mr. West moved to postpone the further consideration of tho whole matter to tho second Monday in De cember, which was carried—yens 33, nays 30. Mr. Frolinghuyson then offered the following: “Resolved, That the Senate approve of the action heretfore taken by the President of tho United States in pro tecting Louisiana from domestic vio lence, and are of the opinion that he should continue to recognize in that State the existing State government.” Mr. Stevenson objected to its pres ent consideration, and tho Senate then, at It: 30 r. m., adjourned. The Pinchbaok debate has been in progress all day and will probably run to midnight. The most marked | speech during tho day was that made i by Mr. Edmunds against Pinchbaok, \ and which was afterwards character | ized as a coppo-head effusion by sev eral other Republican Senators. The galleries are all crowded to night in anticipation of a speech from Andrew Johnson. TEIJ'ihIUNIK ITEMS. I Special to tho Times by 8. & A. Lino.) Phil Sheridan is In Chicago.

Y., March 10.— The i weather along tho Delaware river lias been clear to-day, and no immediate danger is apprehended from the ice gorge.

The Superintendent of the Erie Railroad says he does not anticipate any interruption on his road. Terrible Powder Will Explosion. Cleveland, March Hi. But few particulars regarding tho oxploslou at the Austin powder mills have yet been learned. Three lives are known to have boon lost. The mills are on lire and burning fiercely. A brisk wind is blowing in tho direction of the magazine where 300 tons of pow der are stored, and where another explosion Is momentarily expected. A largo number of polico are on hand keeping back the immense crowds who are gathering. The Are is steadily approaching the magazine and there is no way of stopping it. Tho city inflrmery is about a mile and a half from the sccno of tho dis aster, and tho explosion caused the building to rook and crack as if about to fall. All the windows in the dis pensary were scattered over the floor. In the city the effect was very de structive to plate, glass, &e. Scarcely a window is left on Broadway. Large puues of plate glass were shattered. The sensation at a distance of flvo miles was similar to that of a severe shock of an earthquake. An explosion occurred at these mills three years ago.

A Specific fur Neuralgia. I HAVE been saying a good deal through the papers of lute extolling JORDAN’S JOYOUS JULEP as a most wonderful NEURALGIA CURE; but for fear you may exclaim as Shakspeare when he said “You cram these words into mine ear against the stomach of my sense," I now sub mit to you what persons say who have tried my Neuralgia Julep, with the most complete and satisfactory result: Columbus, January 16, 1875. i Mr.Jordan:— l take great pleasure in recom- j mending your Joyous Julep for neuralgia, has produced a most wonderful relief in one oj the severest attacks of neuralgia my daughter ever has had. She has been treated for it by three skillful physicians, with very little benefit, and used ull tin* usual remedies with little suc cess. 1 can with much confidence hope for u per manent cure. It is only two days since we began the use of it. and it. is apparently of permanent benefit. Yours, with respect, MRS. L. I. NORMAN. Petersburg, Va., Jan. 15, 1875. Jiw. L. Jordan, Esq., Columbus, Ha.: Dear Sir—Having learned through my friend It. A. Bacon of your “J. J. J.” preparation for re lief of neuralgia, and tested it with perfect suc cess iu my own family, in the. worst caso, too, that over came under my observation, I now ; enclose fifty cents for a second bottle, aH I con sider it too valuable a medicine to bo without, though I have no immediate use for it. Very truly yours, JAMES T. TOSII. Columbus, Ga., Nov. g. 1874. Dr. J. L. Jordan: Dear Hir—Your Joyous Julep for Neuralgia has been tried in my family, and with the most happy result,and 1 find iu it all you claim for its virtue. And I unhesitatingly re commend it to ull who are suffering from Neural gia as something a little remarkable in its eura- ' live power. J. D. WORTHY, j Columbus, Ga., Doc. 18,1874. Dr. ./. f.. Jordan—Your medicine, Joyous J Julep, is without an equal for Neuralgia. Having been a great sufferer from the pain, and having tried .the prescriptions of many physicians, yet ull proved of no effect until I tried four doses of your Julep, when I was immediately relieved, ami have not been troubled since. 8. C. MADDOX. Lake City, Fla., Nov. 4. 1874. Dr. J. L. Jordan —Please send me another bot tle of your Joyous Julep for a friend. I havo never found anything equal to it for Neuralgia. Two doses cured mo almost instantly, and I can safely recommend it to do what you say. Very respectfully, Ac., JOHN M. JEFFRYS. Ff.hnandina, Fla., April, 1874. Dr. J. L. Jordan, Columbus, Ha.: Dear Dir—lt affords mo pleasure to add my tes timony to tho efficacy of your “Jordan’s Joyous Julep," in giving instant relief in Neuralgia; and to all appearance, as effective as instantaneous. I was effected daily with Neuralgia, and since taking a few teaspoonfuls of your relief, two or more weeks have elapsed, and there are ho indi cations of return. I hope that the human fam ily will raccivo a benefit commensurate with tho importance of your discovery, and that your pecuniary reward will be equal to its well de served merits. Yours, respectfully, MRH. L. DOZIER. Price 50c. Liberal discount to tho trade.
