ning the titles and trusting to luck, he
went ahead, however : "Here you have
Bunyan's Pilgrim's Progress—how much
am I offered for it? How much do I hear
for the Pilgrim's Progress by John Bunyan?
'Tis a first-rate book, gentlemen, with six

THREE river monitors, belonging to the
United States, lying at New Orleans, were
lately sold at auction, and were purchased
by General Herron. Therare all in good
order, but brought only $52,000, although
one of them cost $60,000. It is hinted that
they may be turned over by General Her

many days may not elapse before they may
be thundering away oil the Mexican coast.
AN ATTEMPT was made on the night of

Wis. Incendiary fires were started at five
different points, and several buildings were
burned. A letter of warning had been re

timating that such a project was planned
by some discharged soldiers, who proposed
in this way to balance a fancied claim of
theirs against the city for bounty money.

A GREAT LAND-SLIDE.—The Yreka
Journal, published in Siskiyon county, in
the northern part of California, contains the
following: •
An immense elide of ground descended
last week from the top of the mountain
south of. Deadwood Creek, damming up the
creek sufficient to create a reservoir sixty
feet deep. The slide came in a solid body
slipping along on a soapy clay formation,
upon which the wholemountain rests. The
slide traveled a distance of about a quarter
of a mile, and held together so compact that
it even moved the sluices and logs out of the
creek without damaging them. It is sup
posed that the slide was started by the drift
ing underneath in Steel dr, Warnock's claim,
together with the late heavy rains.
For two days and nights the creek was
held above the slide, where it was fifty yards
from bank to bank, with about 1,000 Inches
of water running. On the morning of the
third day the water commenced running
over the slide and coursing rapidly through
the trees, which remained in the same posi
tion they were on the top of the mountain
before the slide. Many persona have visited
the place, and consider it one of thegrandest
natural scenes.

A Myst Lima HOUSE Br.owar up BY GAS.
—On Saturday last Mr. Bancroft, of Buffalo,
removed to a house on Elliott street, which
- he bad been fitting up for a residence. A
gasfitter had been arranging the fixtures,
leaving the pipe unstopped. About nine
o'clock Mr. Bancroft discovered the escape
of gas, and started with a candle to find the
leak. As he attempted to descend the stairs
a flame burst out all around him, and the
walls of the house shook as from an earth
quake. In a few momenta the rear wall of
the upper story fell out, and the front wall
was also badly shattered. No one was in
jured.
SLUM:Dn.—At Fort Wayne, Indiana, re
cently, William G. Ewing, Jr., adopted eon
of late Wm. G. Ewing, committed sui

when he got helpless he would not remain
long on earth, that he would end all his
troubles by self-destruction. He has been
ill for months past, and most all winter con
fined to his bed. His disease was slow con
sumption and his suffering was great; he
was anticipating the grim monster at any
hour.

Bonds Returning from Europe.
From Washington.
(Special Despatch to the Bulletin,]
WASHINGTON, May 31. The Mexican
question was elaborately dismissed again
to-day by the House Committee on Foreign
Affairs, but no conclusion was reached.
A new tariff bill is being prepared in the
Treasury Department which will be trans
mitted to the Ways and Means Committee
on Monday next.
One of the President's organs in its issue
rather ridicules the new constitutional
amendment.
An army Surgeon, who arrived here to
day from Texas, where he has been sta
tioned for some time,
gives rather gloomy
accounts of affairs in that State.
Advices received by the Government from
its agents in Germany indicate that our
bonds will be returned in considerable
quantities in the next few months, owing to
the unsettled condition of affairs in Europe
Fatal Railroad Accident.
CLEirzteam (Ohio), May 31.—The train
from Sandusky to-day was stopped on ac
count of a broken engine, three miles west
ofhere, and run into by the day empress
train from Toledo.
One lady, whose name has'not been as
certained, was killed, and four or five other
persons were seriously and several slightly
injured. Their names will be furnished as
soon as obtained.
President Newell, of the Toledo road,and
Superintendents Flint and Ruche; are
doing everything for the relief of the injured
in their power. There will be no detention
of travel, as the track is undisturbed.
Honors to General Scott at New York—
General Suspension of Business.
NEW YORK, May 31.—The Produce Ex

CONGRESS--FIBST SESSION.
WAsErNerroN, May 28, 1866.
SENATE.-Mr. Ramsey (Minn.), from the
Committee on Naval Affairs, reported a
resolution for the relief of Paul S. Forbes.
contractor, for the building of the iron-clad
Idaho.
Mr. Wilson (Mass.), from the Committee
On the two houses on the subject of the
death of Lieutenant General Scott, reported
a resolution of respect and veneration for
the memory of the deceased, and that as a
further mark of respect to the memory of
the deceased, when the two houses adjourn
to-day it be to meet on Monday neat, and
that a joint Committee of seven Senators
and nine Representatives be appointed to
represent Congress at the funeral of the late
General.
The resolution was unanimously adopted:
At one o'clock the Reconstruction resolu
tions were taken up.
HOUSE.—On motion of Mr. Wilson (Iowa)
the Senate amendments to the House bill,
to facilitate commercial, postal and military
communication among the several States,
were taken from the Speaker's table and
concurred in.
The bill has therefore passed both houses.
The House resumed the consideration of
the bill to promote the construction of a line
of railroad from Pittsburgh, Pa., to Cleve
land, Ohio, which was under discussion
when the morning hour expired, yesterday:
Mr. Le Blond (Ohio) made an argument
against•the principle of Congress assuming
such authority as is proposed in this bill
and that reported yesterday by Mr. Stevens
to promote the construction of a line of
railway between Washington and the
Northwest. He did not believe that Con
gress possessed sovereign rights over each
State in every essential particular.
Mr. Scofield (Pa.) opposed the bill, con
tending that the proper action to be taken
by Congress would• be the passage of a
general bill instead of a special. one.
Mr. Moorhead (Pa.) argued in favor of the
bill, and expressed the hope that both it and
the bill to construct a line between Wash
ington and the Northwest would pass.
Mr. O'Neill (Pa.) opposed the bill,
arguing that it was unnecessary as the
State of Pennsylvania had always been
liberal to the neighboring States in regard
to railroad facilities.
Mr. Eggleston (Ohio) spoke in support of
the bill, and Mr. Coffroth (NO followed on
the same side.
The debate was closed by Mr. Garfield in
advocacy of the bill. He concluded by
moving the previous question, which was
seconded by the House, and e bill was
then passed. Yeas 77, nays 41.
The morning hour having expired, the
House proceeded to the consideration of the
business on the Speaker's table.
