HEN ATE PRCX' F.KD INO 8.
Wahhinoton, March 23. Mr. An
thony repeated that he should ask
the Senate to-day to remain in con
tinlous session until the resolution
before the Senate in reference to
Louisiana was disposed of.
Mr. Jones of Fla., who was entitled
to the floor on the Louisiana resolu
tion, said that, looking at it in any
i |siint of view, he denied the power
! of the Senate to puss any such reso(u
--! tion as to tho notion of tho President
'in Louisiana. He did not consider It
of such a nature as should command
the approval of the Senate nor of the
country. This resolution, in his opin
ion, was under tho circumstances a
most extraordinary one. The Sena
tor from Indiana (Morton) had argued
that the action of tho President was
binding upon tho Senate; if this Is
true why is the Senate asked to ap
prove of the action taken by the
| President? He commented at some
length on tho affairs of Louisiana
■ and the federal interference therein.
Mr. Wallace said the resolution
proposed by Mr. Froelinghuyson was,
j in effect, a carte blanche for the future.
I The amendment offered by Mr. An
thony eliminated this carte blanche
I for the future. He looked upon the
! last resolution as a recognition of the
! doctrine of paternal government. He
: repudiated this doctrine right on tho
threshold. We wanted no paternal
‘government in Louisiana, recognized
l hy the people of that state different
from this Kellogg government,
against the consent of the people. He
: asked also whet her the peculiar word
ing of tlic resolution was not intend
ed to pave the way for the admission
of Pinehbaek next winter. The man
ner in which the resolution was
shaped read like •an army order.
Whence catno the power of the Sen
ate to pass this resolution?
Tlic question was then taken on the
substitute of Mr. Anthony, as foi-
lows:
Resolved, That the at tion of the
President, in protecting the govern
ment In Louisiana, of which W. I’.
Kellogg is the Executive, and the
I people of that State against domest ie
I violence, and in enforcing the laws j
■ of the United States in that State, is i
i approved.
The substitute was then passed
ayes 33, nays 23.
The resolution, as amended, was
| then adopted -ayes 33, noes 2i.
On the final vote Mr. Booth was re- j
! corded in tho negative. Mr. llamii- (
; ton did not vote.
1 Tiie Senate then, at 4.30 i>. M., went 1
! into Executive session, and at 6 r. m.
the doors were re-opened, and the:
Senate adjourned.

OOSFIUMATION’S.
The Senate, in Executive session
this afternoon, confirmed tho follow
ing nominations; J. H. Clendoring,
Postmaster at Fort Smith, Ark. ; Hen
ry S. Glover, Postmaster at Macon,
Ga.
The Mew York Press on Antly Johnson s
Npfcech.
New York, March 2‘i. The Tribune
says: “Mr. Johnson’s speech hardly
! meets the inordinate expeetation, as
j liis argument in the Louisiana ease
I compares unfavorably with others.
‘Johnson’s views on the third term,
’ and his reflections on Grant and Sher
| idan, will attract attention.”
I The Times says: “The speech is
I nominally on Grant's course regard
-1 ing Louisiana, but really upon tin;
! course and achievements of Andrew
j Johnson ; the same unending stream.
| disjointed, boasting, with occasional
I shrewd and blunt points against his
j enemies.”
; The Herald thinks “the sjieech will
j make a profound impression \>y rea
| son of its earnestness and courage,
j Virtually the speech is an impeaeh
, ment of Gen. Grant.”
I The World says; “The speech will
j secure attention to the political situ
[ation.”

Knur ami l.ynrliiutc la Maryland.
Washinotos, March 23. Last night
a horrible crime was committed in
Prince George's county, Maryland,
and the perpetrator within in a few
hours thereafter suffered death, al
though not by the hands of tile law.
A Mr. Nelson, who a few years sine >
came from tho North and purchased
a portion of the Notley Hall estate in
Maryland, nearly opposite Alexan
dria, had in his employ a young ne
gro named Homines, about. 21 years of
age. Last night Mr. Nelson had oc
casion to come to the city, and about
midnight, the negro Homines taking
advantage of his'absence, and his
lady being alone and unprotected,
went to the house and entering it
committed a shocking outrage upon
her. He had left the house but a
short time before ho returned ami
repeated his fiendish act. Mrs. Nel
son then fled to a neighbor’s house
and informed them of what laid oc
curred. Heinmcs was taken into cus
tody at. an early hour this morning,
and carried before a magistrate, who
deputized a constable to take him to
jail. On the road, however, he was
overpowered by a mob of indignant
Marylanders and the prisoner taken
away from him, and in a short, time
thereafter the culprit was hanging to
a tree within one hundred yards of
tho place where he committed the
out rage.
The Overflow or the nelaware.

Port Deposit, March 23. There is
no material change in affairs. The
water has receded twelve or fifteen
inches since yesterday. The people
are moving back to their homes, but
witli much anxiety. The cold weath
er has cheeked tiie flow of water, bill
a general flood must follow warmer
weather, which is not now so rapidly
approaching. Tiie peril is still great
er than in 1873, ns the ice gorge now
extends five miles below Havre De
Grace. Reports sent from hero to
some of the papers, reflecting on the
I hospitality and generosity of the res
idents, are wholly without founda
tion or excuse.

mlt t > you what persons say who have tried my
Neuralgia Julep, with the, most complete aud I
satisfactory result;
Columbus, January 16,1875.
Mr.Jordan: I take great pleasure in recom
mending your .Joyous Julep for neuralgia,
lias produced a most wonderftil relief iu one oj i
tin* severest attacks ( neuralgia my daughter j
ever has had. Who has been treated for it by I
three skillful physicians, with very little benefit,
and used all th*•'usual remedies with little sue-(
cess. I can with much confidence hope for a per- j
mnuent cure. It is only two days since we began I
the use of it, and it is apparently of permanent
benefit. Yours, with respect,
MUM. L. J. NORMAN. !

Jno. L. Jordan, Columbus, (!a.:
Dear Sir—Having learned through my friend
R. A. Bacon ot your ‘J. J. J.” preparation for re
lief ol neuralgia, and tested it with perfect suc
cess in my own family, in tho worst ease, too,
that ever came under my observation, I now
enclose fifty cents for a second bottle, as I con
aider it too valuable a medicine to be without,
though I have no immediate use lor it.
Very truly yours,
.JAMEH T. TOSH.

!>r. J. L. Jordan. Dear Sir—Your Joyous Julep,
for Neuralgia bus been tried in ray family, and
with tho most happy result,and I find in it ull you
claim for its virtue. And I unhesitatingly re
commend it t< nil who are suffering from Neural
gia as something a little remarkable In its cura
tive power. j. and. worthy.
Columbus, Ga., Dec. 18,1874.
Hr. J. L. Jordan— Your mediciuo, Joyous
Julep, is without an equal for Neuralgia. Having
Jie.m u great sufferer from the paiu, aud having
tried the prescriptions of many physicians, yet
all proved of no effect until I tried four doses
>*f your Julep, when 1 was immediately relieved,
and have not been troubled since.

Lake City, Fla., Nov. 4. 1874.
Ur. J. L. Jordan —Please send me another bot
tle of your Joyous Julep for a friend. I have
never found anything equal to it for Neuralgia.
Two doses cured me almost instantly, and I can
Haft-ly recommend it to do what you say.
Very respectfully, 4c.,
JOHN M. JEFFRYB.

Dr. J. L. Jordan, Columbus, Ga.:
Dear Dir—lt affords me pleasure to add my tes

to all appearance, as effective! us instantaneous.
I was effected daily with Neuralgia, and siuce
