Opening Scenes in the Senate and House of Representatives. In defiance of the rain, which prevailed from early morning until noon, the Senate galleries wore crowded with spectators eager to witness the opening of the Fifty.-second Congress, Here and there throughout the chamber the desks of the Senators who were to take thelr seats as Senators for the first time were marked by baskets of flowers, and the Vice-President’s desk was distinguished in a like manner, There was an unusually large number of new Senators to be sworn in, counting up seventeen, At noon the Vice-President took the chair, and the session was openad with prayer by the chaplain, Rev. J, (i, Butler. After rendering thanks for abundant har. vests and for continued poace and prosper ity, the chaplain prayed for continued favor for the nation and for bless Wigs on the President, Vice-Presi- VICE-PRESIDENT MORTON, dent, Cabinet and both houses of Con gress, He prayed also for the old Jewish people—the descendants of Abraham, [sane and Jacob—now persecuted, and soattered, heads and those in POWer everyw mt jSustion righteousness may pre throughout the the he earth many has at last opened her arms to re. | ceive American corn as article of food, and corn dodgers and johnny cake an will soon become familiar articles upon the tables of the Teutonic empire.

The next credentials read those of Mr. Call and Mr, Davidson, each claiming to be Senator from Florida, After a short discussion both credentials were placed on file The credentials of Mr. Brice as Senator elect from Olio having been presented and ready, Mr. Sherman said: “Before the oath of office is administered to Mr. Brice [ desire to say that a large portion of the citizens of Ohio contend that be was not an inhabitant of that State at the time of his elec tion, and was therefore, not eligible to a seat in this body, On examining the preo- edents (of which there are several in the history of the Government, and some of them most important), I am entirely satis fled that Mr. Brice is entitled to be sworn in on the prima facie case of his eredentials which are regular in form. The equality of the States ought not to be interfered with for a single hour, when there was no serious question about which thers could be any difference among Senators “I simply give this notice, however, so that his being sworn may not be considers!

Wood, of the Fourth Cav. alry, who recently returned to San Fran. cisco from a tour of this region, says that he had a very lively time of it keeping the reservation clear of cattle. Until the Government inter. fered, the herders took in &s many as 2000 cattle and 90,000 sheep every sam. mer for pasture, This has all stopped, It is the duty of the soldiers to keep on the trot in every part of the re. servation, turn the herds back and warn owners not to trespass. But, in spite of this vigilance, cattle slip in. The herders sre promptly arrested and es- eorted to the other side of the reserva. ton, a journey which takes five days. Moanwhile their flocks are unprotected, and boars and wolves attack the animals and kill them. By the time the herder secures a permit, gets his flock together and leads them out of the reservation, he ds taught a salutary, if a severe, lesson. Another duty of the troopers ia to lay out trails, Captain Wood had the au- thority to hire a guide, but he found no one who was familiar with the wild country, and explored it himself, Dur. fog the summer the soldiers laid out twenty-five miles of rail passable to mounted men, often over mountains that bad been declarsd inaccessible, attractive been Mr, Hoar moved that the Commities juire into and report upon the circumstances wid validity of the appointment of Mr, Chil ton from the State of Texas, This was agreed to and the Senate then adjourned.
