Conkling tripped up Hayee on his New York appointments on 12 A report of the executive session says Ihe senate was in executive session to-day nearly six hours, adjourning only at eight o'clock this evening. The entire session was devoted to the New York custom house nominations, two of which, name ly those of Theo. Roosevelt, to I* collec tor In place of Arthur, to be remove,! and L. Bradford Priuce.as naval officer, vice Cornell, to be removed, were report ed from the committee on commerce un favorably. The third name, that of F. A. Merritt. to be surveyor of customs i place of Sharp, whose commission has expired, was reported with a favorable recommendation. No opposition w* manifested to the latter, but the contest in regard to the proposed removals wa exiivmoly animated and took a very w ide range, covering a discussion of the rights, powers and duties of Mr. llayes in regard to removals from office and the subject of civil eervice policy in gen eral. Mr Conkling opened and clewed the debate. Mr. Teller and others apoke against their confirmation, and Messrs. Bayarflt Kernan, Gordon, Hoar and Matthews spoke in favor thereof. The c >nfi rotations were acted upon separate ly by yeas and nays, but resulted the s.iuie. Messrs. Eaton, IVnuis, White and Maxcy, democrats, voted with the republican majority against, and Messrs Rtirnaide, Christiancy, Conover.

The Washington Capital states that the wife of a New York banker appear ed the other evening at a party repre senting Capital.

The tiara wassaid to have been worth s(>, OKI, and the total value of the notes and diamonds on her person was S2tIO.OOU. Two pages carried her train, and watch ed lest the jewels and greenbacks should fall to the floor. What an insulting mockery in times like these when country is filled with thousands out of employ, poorly clad wives, and hnngrv babes. The impu dence of capital and the revelry of wealth are all too apparent already making it needless to show itself with stalking insult.

In 1863 Judge Gamble, of Williams- Iport. took out a policy of insurance for ■£lo,ooo with the Charter Oak life insur ance company on the "with profits" plan Hrhich fixed tbe annnal premium at less thirty per cent, annually and ls~-ss#xty per cent, triennially. In 1873 the company demanded |630, the entire amount of the premiums, which the judge paid under protest and all subse quent payments were made under simi lar conditions. Up to this time |7,407,- 28 have been paid the company. Judge Gamble prays that the contract or policy shall be rescinded; that tbe company sball repay the auma paid, with interest; that the company shall be restrained by an injunction from claiming or collect ing any sums of money under such con tract, or from declaring it void. He re cites that be believes thecompany bank rupt ; that it has not kept its agreement and does not intend to do so. Judge Ma ver, who is trving the case, has grant ed a preliminary injunction and fixed on Saturday, December 29, for hearing the arguments.

The feeling against Chinamen in Cali fornia is still bitter, and the Celestial* are becoming alarmed- On 13 a tele gram was received by President Hayes from the San Francisco "Six Companies,' representing that a gang of roughs at tacked a party of one hundred and tifty Chinaman, who had just reached the city from Sacramento, robbing and cruelly beating them, and seriously injuring more than fifty of the number. There was no interposition by the police for their protection, and no arrests were made. The Companies also call the at tention of the President to the intima tion ot the Governor of California in his address to the Legislature that the mob may become too strong for control. They represent the helplessness of their peo ple without diplomatic protection, and remind the President of the obligations of the United States Government for their security under the provisions of the treaty.

A statement from one who ought to know, revealing a crookedness in the financial management of the Heading Kail road company, has created quite n sensation and juat as much surprise. The Heading was always considered sound anji least of all suspected of having any hidden things that would cause con sternation if brought to light. A former President of that company ha* within a few days made a startling disclosure, which i* thus briefly summed up in one of our dailies: The President of the Reading Kail road from IStU to ISti-.i, Mr. Charles K. Smith of Philadelphia, has published a report of an investigation by him into the atlairs of that company made in ISTit, which makes a remarkable exhibit, aud onethat will nut Mr.Goweti on the de fense. The Reading Railroad ami the Coal and Iron company—-one and the same thing—has slink, bonds and a thiating debt of 1118,000,000. The pro tits of the two companies in the live vears since IS7I. Mr.Smith shows to b* $2,847,880. while the dividends declared by the Railroad company in that time aggregate $18,040,264, leaving a detci I between net earnings and dividend of $13,682,588, of which two and a quarter million* IS dieooual on bonds sold, |re- Mimsbly to realise the therewithal to pay the dividend*. Mr.Situili also an tagonise* Mr. Gowen'a hobby thai it >a the best policy for the Cont|>any to work its own collieriae, by showing that in the five vear* indicated the loss ou col lieries worked bv the company was $2, 020,683, while the gain on these leased— that ia the amount of royalty received— WAS $1,731,191. Mr. Smith aava the report of the Com mittee embodving these facta was not allowed to be entered on the minutes ol the Company by Mr. Gowen and Mr. Boris, lie then sent a copy of it to the London stock and bondholders, with demand that Mr. Gowen be dismissed and the company stop miningcosl. Both demands being refused, he makes publli the report, which is creating something of a sensation iu Eastern financial cir -ie*. Watering stock and sacrificing nillions in discounts on bonds sold to raise money to pay dividends on the stock, may be accepted as the dinisx of modern railroading.

The Senate debated the Stanley Mat ihewssilver resolutions on 11. and among the speakers in favor of remonstiiation was Senator Wallace, who made a char icteriatieally clear and iucisive argu ment. The Thirteen life insurance compa nies in New York which have collapsed sincethat sort ofthing beran are still in the hands of receivers. There is not the least probability that any of the bakers doien will ever get a fresh start. Each proved so utterly rotten when daylight was let into it, that it could never again get business, even though the insurance department gave permission to go ahead. The whole thirteen companies are man aged, or manipulated, by respectable men —men of good social atanding—who attend fashionable churches and think it would be a good thing to take the ballots away from the working classes. Not having the figures at hand just now, we cannot say exactly how many millions these respectable," religious suffrage re striction gentlemen have stolen, or per mitted to he stolen, from the confiding policy-holders, who were credulous enough to trust them. But the gross amount is no trifle. The liabilities of the Continental foot up $5,500.000, and the receiver thinks that if the policy holders live long euough they may ulti mately get thirtv-five cents on the dol lar. the liabilities of the Security amount to something overs4,ooo,hooand it is doubtful if over twenty centa on the dollar will ever be paid. It would not be much out of the way to put down the aggregate stealings, or misappropria tions, or whatever they may be called, at $15,000,000. A large part of this sum was unquestionably squandered in loose management, but aootber large part waa certainly spent by the officers in extrav agant living. Popes must be just like other folks— for they get sick too like other*. Here is an account of the Pope's condition on 13 as telegraphed from Rome: An improvement in the Pope's appe tite is for the moment the most notable point in his condition. Near midnight on Monday he had a paroxysm of con vulsive coughing which continued for two hours, and seemed to imply grave derangement of the cheat and to threaten serious disturbances, hut it passed otl without any apparent aggravation of his great debility. Another attempt was uiade to remove his Holiness from bis oed to his arm chair, in consequence ol the increasing gravity of the bed sores, that have been induced by the r ecu ni ne nt position. It was hoped that this charge would prevent extension of the -ources of inconvenience and danger, nut the attempt baa again failed. M VACUAHON TALKS OF RESIGN 7AG. Paris, December 13.—Marshal Mac.Ma tion has arrived at an understanding with tbe Left. Last night a deputation of the members of the Right waited upon .'iim to say that it was utterly impossible tolorm a Ministry from their ranks, and that all further attempts in that direc tion would be useless. Members of the delegation, while expressing the strong est wish to support the Marshal, were most emphatic in their expressions ol the necessity of coming to terms with moderate Republicans, and ending the crisis. The Marshal was deeply moved, and after some conversation with the deputation, among whom were some of his staunchest friends, for whose opin ion he has great respect, said there was no other course left open to him but to resign. His friends were appalled at the prospect, and besought him not to take this iitep. On condition of his retaining the Presidency, they authorised him to do whatever he pleased, in order to ter minate the crises. The Marshal still hesitated, and reiterated bis unwilling oesa to retain office under the circum -tances; hut the delegation urged their views with great force,and pointed out the danger to Conservative interests of pluuging the country into an uncertaiu future, by resigning at the present time. Finally the Marshal yielded and promis ed to summon a Ministry from the mod crate Left. Marshal MacMahon, with his usual promptitude, at once put his resolution into effect by courauuicsting with M. Kufsure, giving him s carte blanche to form a ministry. It is thought in well informed circles that M. Dufaure will undertake tbe task, and that the long and trying crises which has afflicted France for mouths is at last practically ended. Recent indications leave little room to doubt that the Conservative coa lition which brought about this trouble is fast disintegrating. The Bonapartist* are assuming a bolder tone, and Legiti mists, as well as OrleanisU, are beginning at last to realize tbe fact that the Bona* partists alone are likely to profit by a prolongation of tbe crisis. DI'FAI'BE AMD MACMAIION AT WOBK. Paris, December 13, 2 p. m.—President MacMahon has yielded and the political crisis is regarded as ended. Conciliation is dominant. MacMahon and M. Dufaure are negotiating, and the formation of an acceptible ministry is now believed possible. In Philadelphia, laat week, a woman undertook to walk 150 milea inside 50 hours.

[From the Virginia City F.ntcrprise.] In the Caraon Tribuns of list evening we find this little item : Judge F. K. Bvchtel arrived on the stage thisaflernoon from Bodie. He is en route to the scene of his boyhood days in Pennsylvania. The Judge has resided in Sodie since His implicit faith in the mines has been finally re warded, and be returns to bis Eastern home a wealthy man. On Friday last a man named Carrol ton, here in Virginia City, fifty years of age, blew his brains out. A day or two previous be remarked to a friend that he had a daughter, eighteeu years of age to educate whom he had sent money East; that his daughter had recently married a gentleman there; that they were com ing here to see him, and that he would rather die than have his daughter come here and find him poor. He was dis charged a few days since from one of the nrnes; he had drank heavily for two or three days, and on Friday liorrowed a pistol from a friend and, bidding him good-by, turned around and blew bia brains out. The cases of Bechtel and of the suicide make between them a pret ty good history of this country.

After that can como tho only true reforma tion. Tbe gate it ilrait. It it difficult to enter into. God knowt that and ac knowledge! it. He say*. "Strive P But it it worth the effort. And the difficulties will surely be overcome. There will be thing* to give up. But tbe recompenae will be Jesua walking with you. And tben beyond, at tbe other end, it tbe gat of glory, wbich you cannot reach except by the narrow way. Beyond that there shall bono more sin and sorrow U, strive to enter in 1 And let Christians console ibemielve* tor their loneliness in feeling that tbey are in the minority, by remem bering that tbe majority are on the broad way which leadoih to destruction.
