There *however, an evident anxiety on the part of Senators and Members to get I away from Washington, and the pro bability, is that most of the differences between the Senate House will be adjusted by Co • of Conference. At:Lumber of important bills have thus been already disposed of, including the 'new Currency Bijl , and the Legislative, Exaeutive and Judicial Appropriation Bills, The House bill to fix a uniform time for the election of - members of Congress was adopted by the Senate. It provides that, commencing with - the year 1872, the elections of Representatives in all the States shall take place on the Tues day after the first Monday in November. In the case of Pat Woods, the Vir ginia rough, who was arraigned before the House for a murderous assault on Congressman Porter, of that State,, While passing through Richmond, a re solution was adopted ordering his im prisonment for three mouths in the Dis trict of Columbia jail. The Currency bill, as reported by the Confer ice Committee,' and agreed to by both Houses, provides for the issue of $55,000,000 of new circulation and the retirement of $45,000,000 three per cents. This is a virtual inflation of the cur rency to the extent of $10;000,000. The new currency will be apportioned to banks in_ the Westem and Southern States In the House, on Saturday,• a motion to strike out the Income Tax clause from the Tariff and Tax bill was lost by 67 to 116. The Senate 'amendment re ducing the rate to two and a half per cent. was agreed to. On Wednesday the Confelence Com mittees on the Tax, Tariff and Funding bills made reports, whhh were agreed to in both Houses. The trouble with the Funding Bill was the clause which re quired the new busks to take the new bonds as a bas S of banking. The Western and Southern members resisted this as an unfair discrimination. The Senate yielded, and the bill as finally agreed to makei the taking of the new bonds entirely voluntarily by bviks and individuals. The Senate, in Executive session, con firmed the nomination of Judge Bond, of Baltimore, as Circuit Judge of the 4th Judicial district; also that of Hon. B. F. Potts as Governor of Montana Territory, vice Gov. Ashley removed. On Monday the Senate indefinitely postponed the bill to give Mrs. Lincoln an annual Pension of s3,ooo—yeas 82, nays 1 22. . , The Committee .of Conference on the Funding bill 'agreed on a •report provid ing•for the issue of one thousand million dollars of thirty-year four per cent. bonds, three hundred million fifteen ear four and one-half percent. bonds, an, • s hundred million five per cent. bonds. • mute of the bill authoriz ing foreign agenc -•. stricken out, and all interest is to be pale the United Stites. New banks are to a v it the bondrrissued as a basis for banking;but the banks at present existing are not compelled to exchange their bondr. The nominations for 'the New York Federal offices were all confirmed by the Senate by deeided votes. There were but three votes against the con firmation of Murphy fox Collector—Sen ators Fenton, Tipton and Harris.

It was sent back to the Committee There is danger of this important bii being last TEE Lebanon Courier, discussing the relations of our working people to the protective system, very pertinently says: —"That the free-trade dogmas of the Democracy, if carried on, would be de structive to the laboring people of this country, no fair man who , investigates the question can doubt.- If all pto tective laws are to be abolished, and the manufacturers. of this country thrown into fall competition with the manufac turers of Europe, it follows as surely as night follows day, that labor must come down in this country to the European basis.

There until cooler weather. were r ors that Prince Leopold had re-calledihis acceptance of the Spanish crown, not as a concession to France, but to save Europe from a general war. The military and naval preparations in France are being pressed with undimin ished rapidity, and the Paris journals have statements—probably somewhat exaggerated—of the massing of immense bodies o Prussian troops upon the Rhenish frontier, the English papers locating the points of assemblage at Baden Mayence. The London Telegraph believes that peace is impossi ble, intimating that Napoleon means to force a war if possible. The Spaniards themselves are, so far, the most uncon cerned peOple in the current excitement. Among the rumors connected with the situation are these—that the Orleans Princes are concerned in Prince Lee -old's candidaey, that Prim bee written a letter declaring that Spain cannot, wirhout slums, now draw back, and that the Empress Eugenie wishes a wkr in the interest of Prince Alfonso for the throne, A note addressed by the Eng lish Government to its representatives approves the position of Prussia and dere recates that of France. Wednesday's despatches confirm the report that Prince Leopold has been withdrawn as a candidate for the Span ish throne, but the feeling throughout Europe continued uneasy, notwithstand ing the announcement of the French Ministerial organ that France is satis fied and peace assured. The German journals report that the preparations for war are still continued in France, and assert that the Emperor means to force a conflict. At Madrid warlike prepara tions have been commenced and the first corps of reeerves called out. The Vien na journalf sympathise with Trance and denounce Prussia, at the same time calling onEngland to prevent hostilities. The Paris prints of Wednesday evening report than the Ministry has resigned, An exciting scene took place in the Corps Legislatif, the Government refus ing to ans'er an iuterpellation on the war subjedt. THE Deinc;cratic editors of central . • Pennsylva 1 nia held a Convention at Al toona last Week, to determine the policy to be purslied in the coming campaign. Brick Pomeroy—noted for his disloyalty during the Var, his extravagant eulogies of the Rebel conspirators, and his malig gnant denunciations of all who helped to save the nation-was present, as a ruling spirit. He advised an offensive campaign on the "hot.shOt" principle, denunciatiOn of Grant, Congress and the Ttepublican party generally, to be the ruling idea.' The Convention ignored all the issues ' the day, and in the resolu tions adopted we have not a . word about the "bloated bondholders," tariff, free trade, finances, anuiesty to rebels, Cuba, esc., about which the Copperlawl jour• nals have so freely in the past, On all these questions they are mum—. not even al word of denunciation for the great nine million raid on the State tem Treasury a pted last winter, and to be put thro gh next session if enough of marketable embers can be found.

According to the Food Journ. al, there were slaughtered in Paris, :froin th 9th July, 1896, when the first horse. esh butchery, was opened, to the 31st of December in the same year, 902 horses. (a few mules and asses being included,) and their flesh, 'averaging for each about 440 pounds in weight, have a total of about 180 tons. In 18(37, the total consumption of this kind of meat rose to 430 tons; and in the following year to rather more than 480 tons. In thesestwo years and a half, the totals were 5,475 horses, yielding 1,095 tons of meat, without including the livers, tongues, hearts, &c., which were also used as food. From other not less completely reliable returns the consumption in the rest of France is believed to bring the total up to 2,000 tons. The use of hone b4f is said to have increased considerably last year, when butcheries especially devoted to it were opened at Toulouse, Sedan, Toulon, Charleville, Angers, Marseilles, Havre, and tther towns. REPUBLICLN economy at Washington is playing havoc with the pocket-books of Democrats. In 18.59, when the Democra cy were iii power, the mileage of Senators amounted to $75,011; in 1869, with *six. more Senators, it was $29,312.40. In the Rouse the mileage in 18.59 in round num bers was $363,000; in 1869, $159,000. The mileage has been reduced one-half; but this is less than that. The distances have "shrunk:* Thus Mr. Johnson, of Arkan sas, used to charge 4,000 miles from Wash ington to Little Rock; Mr. Rice makes it a full thousand less. Mr. Gruver, of Mis souri,- made his distance 3,500 miles, while Mr. Drake now reports 1,500. Mr. Gwjn, of California, used to receive about $B,OOO for mileage; Mr. Cole now receives $1,309. Jesse D. Bright made a hill of $BOO each way, but Governor Morton only gets $359 a year. Dr. Fitch received $1,146; New ton Pratt makes the distance 1,200 miles shorter, and obtains only $339 both ways; David Turpie reported a distant* of 2,636 miles from northern Indiana, but Mr. Col fax finds it 800,miles less. Jefferson Dwas used to take $1,600 for a reputed distance of 4,000 mites; his, suca essor. Mr lives 130 miles , further • away, reports a thousand miles less, and receives a thous and dollars less. JEFF DAVIS Ts. Ar.xxiximu. H. Srz pnEns.—The ex-Vice 'President of' the Southern Confederacy having intimated in his last book that Mr. Davis was responsi ble for the confederate troops not having advanced upon Washinton after they had defeated the Federal army at the first Bull Run battle, the latter takes umbrage thereat and writes to General Joseph E. Johnston for his opinion ou the truth or falsity of Mr. Stephens' statement. General Johnston comes to the defence of of his superior and says that Mr. Stephens' statements are untrue, and that he did not follow up the defeated army beeausy they had too many fresh troops laying it Centreville and in the defences around Waskington. The accusation and reply . are noticeable only to show the remarka ble pleasent feelings that exist between these two. worthies of the ea-Confederacy. TuP.nn are ten Chinese Sunday -schools in San Francisco with 301 teachers and 764 pupils. A aim: PICTURE.-A. Doylestown cor respondent of the Philadelphia Post writer: In Pennsylvania we have a crimi nal and pauper population of about 25,000, ninety per cent. of which has been brought to degradation and want by intemperance. The revenue of our Commonwealth deriv ed annually from liquor licenses is about $420,000,. while the animal cost to the people of the Commonwealth for support ing criminals and paupers, made such by intemperance, is about $2,520,000. Wha4 a difference between the revenue deriied from liquor licenses and the cost to the people in maintaining criminals and pau pers made such by the traffic in liquor in pursuance of these licenses: This hi, in deed, a source of melancholy reflection and deep regret, but it „hi, nevertheless, Vie. The statistics show it, and the enormously high taxes in every county where liquor is sold prove it. It may be asked, when will the ,eople be more thoreughly aroused to the danger that surrounds them and apply the remedy? IMPORTANT Rzvxxtrz - DRCIBION.—The Commissioner of interbil Revenue, in reply to an inquiry addressed to his office respecting the liabilities of wine manufac thrers from grape berries, or fruits of their own growth, renders the following decision: "Marinfamiturprs of wine from - I g r apes , berries, or fririts of their own growth are not liable to special tax as nianufactuzers or ihrroT dealers for selling such wine at the pla c e wher4 the same 14 Where anch r wines are sold, how ever, at any otherOlace of manufacture, habil* t 6 payment of tax as liquor deal ers is incurred; and where wines are Man ufactured from grapes, berries, or fririts 'net of their own growth, they should Pay *Pedal tax aamanufacturers and as liquor de4lere for selling their products, whether selling the same at the plaoe of nilinufc 111Te (n• alpanyine." i This rulinff reverses the decisions of jointer Collinriedenertit Am:maze ritually WAaraire.--rThe had kerosene ezpieston in Cincinnati was ghastly.

' • ITSZSGTII OW XVIIIOPEAIIt In view of tho despatches from Europe, it is interesting to know what military force the nations concerned can put in the field. France has 414,6732 soldiers 011 the 'ialitcri . !noting and 647,271 in the'field, a total et nearly 1,100,000. Of thes4, 870,- 000 men are ready to march on the-lap of the drum. Ai;atria has 278,490 men on the peace establishment, 838,700 of a war strength, or 309,000 fully prepared to move. Could the South German Confederation, or group of States, be secured on the same side, they have 66,540 men on the peace, 0f184,406 on the War footing, with 167,000 of these prepared- for instant service.— Such a coalition would give France the control of 777,000 fighting men. at once, with a reserve of 1,590,10(1 trained soldiers. On the other hand, Prussia has 726,000 men on the peace or 1,268,000 on the war footing, with 300,000 now ready for oper ations on her western frontier. North Germany,. going with Prussia, has 815,528 on the peace, 551,993 on the field or 944,- 821 on the war footing, of which 516,000 are instantly available. This would place at Prussian disposal 846,000 men for the first moment and 1,864,821 in reserve.— Thus she would have, instantly, 69,000 men more, and, hereafter, 281,785 -less than the French alliance. Should she be able to manage Southern Germany for her cause she would have 1,053,000 men, or 176,000 more than France, to mare at once, or 'quite enough to cope with her and • Austria together, for the time being, with all the advantages of a common language and position. This would, leave Prussia still a reserve of 1,441,721 men, or only 154,379 less than that of France and Aus tria coalesced, a difference swamped to the extent of nearly 90,000 men by her supe riority of immediate force. Italy, out of a force of 370,721 on a war footing, with 197,000 of a reserve, or 373,- 721 in all, could spare possibly 200,000 men to operate on the French frontier or hold a hostile Corps in clitck. The direct and open participation of Russia is hardly to be expected unless circumstances should force her into the melee. In that case she could dispose of about 250,000 men from about 700,000 composing her army in Europe, including the Cossacks. She could take no other course by family alli- ance, position and the recollection of Cr mean wounds, than to aid I : , ) xussia. Swe den and Denmark would, if they'dared to move at all, have to go in the same direc tion, with about 50,000 men. Thus Italy, the Czar and Scandinavia would bring King William 500,000 men—a force that, with South German aid, would place him 430,000 ahead of France, allowing Eng land, Belgium, Holland and Switzerland to remain neutral. TIIE CROPS IN MARYLAND, DELAWARE AND PENNBYLVANIA.—At a meeting of the Phiiiadelphia Society for promoting Agri culture, held on Wednesday, the following report was made by Dr. Elwyn: "In Eastern Maryland, Delaware and Southern Pennsylvania the wheat crop of this season has been greatly reduced by the rainy weather which prevailed during the last of May and first two weeks of June. Au excessive growth of straw has resulted, with small heads and more or less of the seed pods blighted or aborted. Very few crops on the best ground teach one-half of a fair average, and most crops on thin soils are not more than one-third or one-fourth the average of a favorable season. No rust or mildew was observed on the straw. The chaff of the beads was dark, and the fields never showed the gold, en hue usually so cons pieions at harvest. On the contrary they appeared of a dirty brown color. Notwithstanding this dark ness on the outer chaff of the seed .pods, the grains within were generally of a good quality. even in samples taken from heads where aborted pnik. "In some fields I found three-fourths of the heads more or leks blighted, and much smaller than usual. "As to the causes operating in produc ing this unfortunate result; - - my theory is as follows: most frequent rains occuring during the most rapid growth of the plants led to an excessive development of the straw and leaf. Now, it is a universal law of organic life, that when the processes connected with growth get in excess, the fruit process always suffers becoming more or less abortive. This law applies to all organizations, whethervegatable or animal. Productiveness in either is best secured by a proper balance maintained between what physiologists term the cell and Wood-pro ducing process and that concerned in the production 2 f fruit,. Either process be coming in excess turns the balance against the other. "Thus, in ease of fruit trees, when their growth is stimulated by fertilizers or rich soils, they do not produce fruit so soon as trees where the conditions are less favora ble to rapid growth. Hence, to secure early bearings fruit trees have often to be check_ ed in their wood-making process by dwarfing, ringing, cutting roots, &c., &c., all of which tend to limit their growth and favor fruit bearing. Trees will often bloom and set an abundance of fruit, which they will throw off entirely during a ;tiny spell in June. "This is especially the case with young peach trees growing in a good soil, when older trees will retain their fruit, precisely as we find duridg the present season, when three-perurths of the crop in Dela, ware is in orchards with trees from six to twenty years old. Thus the same in fluenceif which have tended to reduce the wheat crop in Delaware and Eastern Maryland to one-half an average have lim ited the peach crop in about the same pro, portion," DEATH FROM YDRoPitania.—Nearly three months ago a bright boy, ten years of age, the eldest son of Mr. Doremus, the Paterson, N. J., photographer, petted a Little white lap-dog, which was following two ladies in front of his father's store, and admiringly stroked the animal on the back, when the dog bit his hand. The wound was dressed by a physician, and .healed nicely, but from that time the child has been nervous, and complained of shoot ing pains starting from his arm and going through 'hiy head' and along his spine, and latterly , throngh his whole person.' He went to school till 'Monday last, and could not rest at school longer. On Monday ht he seemed to have spasms, but was better orithiday following; but on Wed nesday night grew fearfully agitated, and .oould not be controlled, and leaped from :his ilither's arms several times, and ran .wildly about the room. He wanted to eat but could not, and though burning with "heat and thirst, when water was - brought . .to him he shivered and repelled it and could not swallow, or if he did, it seemed to be, with a great effort and with a je;k, did pot seep after - .Sunday night ! and grew *ker liatt42vPrY 9 14814; bit hie 'e badly, and failed tin 4 o'clock on Thursday afternoon, when death came to ilia relief.

Tmi FIRE AT CQNISTANTINOPLE.—The latest foreign, mails give the following statement of the number of persons left I. destitute by the recent fire in Constanti 40ple. The persons who are sheltered in tents and supplied with tisal by the Gov { - ernment numbet 9,034 eh d those provided with provisions only Irmxtber 15,000, mak i: ing an aggregate of $4,0114. Of the 9,084 . 1 hi te,vds 6,447 are Aritlinkum; 1,723 Greeks, 440 Mins, 285 Italians, 17 Frenchmen, 25 Englishmen, 13 Russians and 6 Turks. The details of the disasterare of the saddest characterr. Many persons were found still alive in wells, cisterns and cellars; a large number weretaken out who had been suffocated by the smoke or burned by the flames. • American petrolium, it is stated, increased the violence of the fire, and in some of the f retail stores there were twenty -or more tin cans of the oil which exploded like powder,: scattering the burning frag ments. Many families possessing from $50,000 to $200,000 were entirely burned out, and!noW can only obtain shelter from the benevolence of friends or by Govern ment aid. The Armenians and Greeks lost large quantities of jewelry, Ottoman bank notes, and certificates of Government loans. The burned district is'till danger mas to move over in Consequence of the slightly covered wells, but it is soon to be laid out again so that the owners of lots may build huts or new houses before the winter sets in. The streets are to be widened ind reservoirs for water construct ed. It is stated that the Musselman pop ulation of Cimstantinople has shown far more syMpathy for the Christians thaik was exhibited by the latter towards the Mohammedans on the occasion of the gi• eat fire which burned out the native quarter. Many of the Musselmans offered' their houses to the Christians gratis, or at nom inal rents: GOLD AND VERIVIN.-All old man alsnit sixty - live years of age. 4 named Joseph ]tangs, one of those characters constantly wondering about the country without a home and apparently without au object, and comnionly known as "tramps," was picked up in East Earl township. on Tues day morning of last week, and brought to the county almshouse, and placed in the building usually reserved for such persons. He was so filthy and covered with ver min that no person in the • neighborhood where he was found would permit him to approach the house. At the hospital lie was stripped for the purpose of cleaning him, when there was discovered upon his body, tied up in little bags, which were enveloped in an old cotton pocket hand kerchief, $.150 in gold, in s2o's, and $1 pieces; also, sB:i in silver. in sl's, 50c., 25c., And 10c., pieces, and *l5 in a pocketbook in rper currency—or in all about $4BO.

Michigan. concluded that he would lid his barn of about a hundred nests made by swallows under the eaves, .and for the purpot..e put up and mounted a long ladder.- There were only a dozen birds about when the fanner coutmenced at the nests, but he bad scarcely tore one down before the few set up such a twitter lngi as soon brought to the spot every bird from the barns of the whole neighbor hood. They flew around ossmere's head uttering, notes of displeasure, and at least the whole cloud settled upon him, scream ing, picking, and scratching, as if de termined to dig his eyes out. The ladder did not stand very securebr• "rni t" farmer raised his hand to tight off his tormenters, his support slipped and fell, carrying him • to, the ground, the fall breaking a rib, and giving him some severe bruises. The birds remained about the spot until seemingly convinced that their abodes were safe, when the flocks scattered. • Ancrrnrstror Spalding has been forward ed a letter from a number of Roman Cath olic clergymen of Baltimore sustaining his course in the Ecumenical council in sup porting the dogma of Papal infallibity.
