SENATE PROCEEDINGS.
Washington, Mareli 18. Tho Chap
lain, in liis opening prayer, invoked
the blessing of Divine Providence
upon the Senators now about to sep
arate and go upon their various ways;
that they bo made a blessing to tho
nation and a light to the times in
j which they live.
Mr. BoutwelJ called up a resolution
submitted by him on yesterday au
thorizing the special committee ap
pointed to sit during the recess and
I examine into the various branches of
tho civil service, with a view to the
reorganization of the several depart
ments thereof, to employ a stenogra
pher, to administer oaths and send
for persons and papers. This resolu
tion did not. pass yesterday, as it was
supposed.
Mr. Stevenson raised a point that
tile resolution was legislative busi
ness, and it was not proper to be con
sidered at this session of the Senate.
Mr. Conkltng remarked that the
committee had been instructed to
sit during recess, but it would be en
tircly powerless if this resolution was
not passed. If tho Senate decided
to adopt it, tho committee would con
sider it as an intimation that they
were not expected to go on with tho
inquiry.
Mr. Stevenson hud no desire to
throw any obstacle in the way of any
investigation ordered by the Senate.
If that was nn important matter it:
should have boon attended to at the
late Legislative sessson. The Sen-'
ate had already refused to pass a reso
lution offered by the Senator from j
Arkansas ('Clayton / to appoint a com
mittee to inquire into the affairs in j
the Indian Territory. If this resolu-j
tion was not in order, then certainly
this was not.
After some furt Iter discussion and
without disposing of the matter, the ,
Senate wont into executive session, j
republican caucus.
The Republican members of tho j
Senate held a caucus this morning to j
consider what action they would take
with reference to Mr. Freelinghuy- j
son’s resolution approving the action ■
heretofore taken by the President in 1
the ease of Louisiana. The matter
was debated, but no conclusion was j
reached, and the caucus adjourned to
reassemble after (lie adjournment of
the Senate.
The Senate to-day, by a vote of 51
to 12, ratified tlie llowayan treaty as
originally offered, with several
amendments.

SllMNK.lt MEMORIAL FRAUD.
There is considerable excitement
here about the development, as to the
Sumner eulogy expenses. The morn
ing papers publish the following
note: ‘‘We are requested, by George
William Curtis, to correct the state
ment that he received a thousand
dollars for his eulogy on Mr. Sumner.
The committee made him a very gen
erous pecuniary offer, which he de
clined.”
The Boston Neios whiclt first open
ed the matter comments upon it as
follows:
We hope for tho sake of Mr. Curtis
that this is true, but if so, there is
trouble ahead for somebody. In the
report ofthe Auditor we find, under
the head of ‘Eulogy on Chas. Sumner,’
this item: services of Geo. William
Curtis, one thousand dollars. We
have made enquiries at the State
House in regard to tills matter, and
learn from the Auditor of tho State
that he had no receipted bill from
Mr. Curtis for the Sumner Eulogy,
and the only voucher for its payment
is a receipted bill of tho Chairman of
the committee, which contains the
items as already published. The Com
mittee consisted of Messrs. Merrill
of Boston, and Ferry of Worcester,
on the part of the Senate, and
Messers J. B. Smith of Cambridge,
Phillips of Salem, and Phillips of
Springfield, of tho House. If Mr.
Curtis did not receive the thousand
dollars, would it not be well for the
committee to explain what they did
with the money?

THE ALAKUI V CLAIMS.
Special to the Tim is by S. k A. Lluu.]
AN IMPORTANT DECISION RY THE COMMIS
SION.
Washington, March 18. —In the
Court of Commissions of Alabama
Claims, yesterday, in case 043, Moses
Hyneinan versus the United States,
judgment was rendered in favor of
tho United States. This is a ease of
general average, founded upon the
capture of the steamship Ariel, by
the Confederate cruiser Alabama, and
her subsequent bonding, while on
tin' voyage from New York to San
Francisco.
It is understood that a large num
ber of similar claims liavo been
held back, pending tho decisions in
this one. The facts in this easo are
as follows: In December, 1802, the
complainant shipped from New York
on the steamship Ariel, certain mer
chandise, destined to San Francisco,
When the Ariel had proceeded on her
voyage about as far as Cuba, she was
pursued and fired upon, and stopped
by the Confederate cruiser Alabama.
The commander of the Alabama
j evinced a strong desire to destroy the
! steamship, as ho hotl done, and con
tinued to do so, many other valuable
vessels; but tho Ariel had on board
tl(>7 passengers, including 140 United
States marines and their officers, too
many to be taken on board of the
Alabama, or to be sot adrift in small
i boats. Embarrassed by this circum
stance, he exacted from the master of
| the Ariel, a ransom bond which pur- j
| ported to be executed by the master,
1 for himself, tin' owners of the ship,
and of its cargo, and stipulated,
well and truly, to pay the sum of
| $261,000 unto the President of
the Confederate States of America,
ids successor or successors in office
[within thirty days after tho conclu
sion of the present war between the
said Confederate States and the
! United States. On arrival of the
! goods ut San Francisco, the owners
ofthe steamship line regarding the
case as one of general average,
placed it in tho charge of profes
sional adjusters. The proceedings of
(lie adjusters was not very substan
tially proven, and the court assumed
the professional competency of the
persons so employed and tho tech
nical accuracy of their work. The
adjusters apportioned tho several j
amounts which the vessel, the
freights and the cargo were liable to
contribute, if payment of the bond j
was finally exacted; and they also I
apportioned the expenses of the ad
justment among those interests. \
They fixed tho sum which would be
payable by Mr. Heyneman as bis I
portion of the bond at $488,053, and
iiis portion of tho expenses of Iho
adjustment at $7,873. He paid tho
last mentioned sum in gold, and lie
claims to recover it from the money
awarded to the United States at, Ge
neva. This being a ease on which
several similar eases aro said to de
pend, tho Court has given the matter
the most elaborate and careful con
sideration.

THE ICE GORGE BROKE U1 1 — GREAT EX
CITEMENT AMONG THF. PEOPLE.
Port Deposit, Md., March 18. The
ice commenced moving here at seven
o’clock this evening, and tho river
rose four feet in ten minutes and has
been rising very rapidly over since.
Tlie whole town is in excitement, and
persons are rushing with their effects
in tlie streets, and doing all that can
be done to save their property. The
train from Philadelphia, duo here at
8:20 this evening, could riot get with
in a mile of the town for tlie ice gorge.
The crisis is at hand. The wharf and
shore of tlie river have been crowded
witli spectators since tho commence
ment of the flood, and the night be
ing such a bright moonlight one
makes the scene one of grandeur and
beauty. Some of tho ice is four feet
thick, and is running at the rate of a
mile in three minutes. There has
been no slack in it since it commenced
running. It is supposed that tho riv
er is open and clear to its mouth.

Civil Itlwhls In savannah.
Savannah, March 18.—Last Tues
day night two colored men seated
themselves in the dress circle of the
theatre, when they knew at tho time
that their presence was objectionable.
Fortunately for them, they took back
seats, and wore only observed by a
few until tho last act was on; then
the cry of put them out was started,
and tho darkies beat a retreat, and,
judging from the feeling manifested
by the audience, they are indebted to
tho presence of mind and prompt ac
tion of two gentlemen for their safe
arrival on the pavement. These two
negroes evidently appeared to test
the easo; for, even after purchasing
their tickets, they appeared some
what disappointed —not being refus
ed ; their very presence was a bid for
a row.

Columbus, January 16, 1876.
Ifr.Jordan —I take great pleasure in recom
mending your Joyous Julep for neuralgia,
has produced a moat wonderful relief in ouo oj
the Reverent attacks of neuralgia my daughter
ever has had. Hhe has been treated for it by
three skillful physicians, with very little benefit,
and used all the usual remedies with little suc
cess. I can with much confidence hope for u per
manent cure. It is only two days since we begun
the use of it, and it ifl apparently of permanent
benefit. Yours, with respect,

lief of neuralgia, and tested it with perfect sue
t •hm in my own family, in the worst case, too.
that ever cauie under iny observation, I now

sider it too valuable a medicine to be without,
though I have no immediate use for it.

gia as something a little remarkable in its cura
tive power. J. I>. WORTHY.
Columbus, Ga., Dec. 18,1874.
Dr. J. L. Jordan —Your medicine, Joyous
Julep, is without an equal for Neuralgia. Having
been a great sufferer from the pain, and having
tried the prescriptions of many physicians, yet
ail proved of no effect until I tried four doses
of your Julep, when 1 was immediately relieved,
and have not been troubled since.

Dear Dir -It affords me pleasure to add my tes
timony to the 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

importance of your discovery, and that your
pecuniary reward will be equal to its well de
served merits. Yours, respectfully,
