Tha Democratic National Com
mittee will meet In Washington on tlio
22dof February to select the tliuo nud
placo Tor holding the Presidential Con
vcntlon.
During thu present session of Con
gress, thus far, 007 hills have been In
troduced in tlio Senate, 1837 bills nnd
41 resolutions In the, Uouso. About
COO bills and resolutions wcro Intro
duced in tho last Congress, but that
wai an unusual number.
We Invito tho especial attention of
our readers to tho letters of our Wash
ington, Uarrlsbug and Philadelphia
correspondent. They are all well
written and contain matters of much
interest to tho geneial reader. The
"Carbon Advocate" is tlio only paper
in tho county having correspondents In
tho three cities abovo named.
Secretary Fish was beforo the
House Committco on Foreign Affairs
Monday by Invitation, to stato tho
present condition of tho Cuban ques
tion, lie intimated that tho recent
circular to foreign Governments merely
asked their moral support In tho event
of mediation or intervention by tho
United States. He did not regard tho
tone of tho recent Spanish reply to tho
circulars as unfriendly. Tho negotia
tions wero conducted In a conciliatory
spirit on both sides, " and certainly
without threats on the part of the Uni
ted States," and ho hoped they would
terminate satisfactorily. Should tho
House call for the correspondence,
would be laid beforo that body.
Tho Centennial Appropriation bill
Is said to bo gaining favor among the
Southern members of Congress. Sena
tor Gordon, of Georgia, agrees with
Senator Bayard that it is constitutional
nnd sanctioned by many precedents
nnd ho fupports It on tho following
grounds : No section is so deeply Inter
ested In tho proper celebration and ro
establishment of tho principles of 1870
and tho restoiatlon of good-will in the
country as the South. Tho proposed
appropriation would cost only about
Si cents per capita In the United States,
Pennsylvania having paid four and n
half millions of the five millions already
expended, It would bo unjust to mako
her pay moro ; whereas tho Congres
slonal appropriation would pcrfeot tho
national character of the celebration
Foreign nations having accepted tho
invitation to como, tho reputation of
the Government is.involvcd In perfect
ing tho arrangements.
Tho National Republican Commit
tee met; Thursday of last week In
Washington to doslgnato tho time and
placo for holding tho National Conven
tlon this year. Eighteen of the orlgl
nal members were prejen t and thirteen
proxies. On tho ninth ballot Cincin
natl was chosen as the place, it receiV'
Ing 23 votes, 18 for Chicago and 3 for
Philadelphia. On motion of Mr. Scam
Toon, of Chlcago.tho selection was made
unanimous. The 14th of Juno was then
selected as tho day, so that tho Nation
al Republican Convention to nominate
candidates for President and Vice Prcsl
dent of tho United States will meet in
Cincinnati on tho 14th of June noxt.
The call for the Convention invites the
support of all who are "In favor of sua
taining in every way tho national faith
and financial honor, and who hold that
the common school system is tho nur
eery of American liberty, and should
be maintained absolutely freo from sec
