1 ‘"When I entered for tlio last time that magni

Mtinrich iltin*:. j
Goddess of dreams, mother of love and sorrow,
finch sorrow as fipm love’s lair promise flows,
finch love as from life’s martyrdoms doth borrow
That conquering- calm which only sorrow
knows.
Venue, Madonna! so serene and tender.
In thy calm after-bloom of life and love,
More fair than when of old thy sea-born splendor
' Surprised the senses of Olympian Jove.
Not these the lips that with empassioned plaining
Fenced subtle hearts through Adons languid
frame. • . . ~
Till ov4r cheek and brow, their kisses raining,
Thrilled to his heart and turned its frost to
flame.
Thy soul transcending passion’s wild illusion,
Its fantasy and fever and "unrest,
Broods tenderly in thought’s devout seclusion,
O’er some lost love-dream lingering in thy
breast.
Thv face seems touched with pity for the anguish
Of earth’s disconsolate and lonely hearts;
For all the lorn and lpveless lives that languish
In solitary homes and sordid marts.
With pity for the faithlessness and feigning,
The vain repentance and the long regret.
The perfumed lamps in lonely chambers waning,
The untouched fruit* on golden salvers set;
With pity for the patient watcher’s yearning,
Through lonely easements over midnight
moors,
Thrilled by the echo of far feet returning
Through the blank darkness of the empty
doors;
With sorrow for the coy, sweet buds that cherish
In virgin pride iove’s luxury of gloom,
And in their fair unfolded beauty perish,
Fading like flowers that knew not how to
bloom:
With Sorrow for the over-blown pale roses
That waste their perfumes on the wandering air;
For all the penalties that life imposes
On passion’s dream, oh love’s divine despair.

Tliealrlcal Notes.
From an article in the New York Post we
extract the following theatrical items of in
terest ;
SUCCESSFUL ACTOItS.
Air. Joseph Jefierson has the reputation of
Toeing one of the most financially successful
members of the theatrical profession. A
large proportidiTof hi’s wealth was acquired
years since in Australia and California. His
profits at present average two thousand dol
lars a week; his “season” is about thirty
weeks
Edwin Booth has the .reputation of being
the wealthilßt member, however, of the
American theatrical corps. His season is also
about thirty weeks. His average is three
thousand dollars a week. His theatre
will not be finished until December. In the
interval it is rumored that he will fill an en
gagement at Pike’s. Opera House in this city.
Among the other actors who are earning
good incomes are Mr. J. E. O wens, whose
§l,ooo a night; Mr. Bailey Wil
liams, who has already amassed a handsome
fortune, and jwho averages §5OO a week, with
Mrs. Barney Williams as much more in the
season; John Brougham, who makes about
§BOO a week; Mrs. Lander, the same. J. E.
Muifloch is also very wealthy. Miss Maggie
Mitchell, who is always, and has been from
the first, very successful, makes about §1,500
a wrek; Lotta, the next moat successful
actress, a sprightly little bit of “quicksilver,”
who has risen into celebrity only within the
past two years, makes about §OOO a week;
J. S. Clarke, about the same, or possibly
about §1,000; Mrs. D. P. Bowers, , § : r>00; E.
L. Davenport, $500; J. W. Wallack, §500;
Mr. s F. S. Chanfrau, §500; Edwin Adams,
§500; J. H. ‘Hackett, §500; Miss Lucille
Western, $500; Mr. and Mrs. Florence, §5OO.
COAIM ON EIUtOItS.
Two very common errors are committed
by the public in their estimation of a theatre
and theatrical laws. One is that strangers or
mere friends of the actors or actresses are ever
permitted behind the scenes or in the green
room. This is seldom allowed. Indeed, so
rigoroflSjy is this rule enforced, that managers
themselves wonldub stared at by their sub
ordinates upon a, chance intrusion within its
strictly private precincts. This rule has been
in force always in all respectable theatres in
America-
Another erroneous impression in the -public
mind is that theatres, from their light and
airy appurtenances, are very combustible.
This, also, is a grave mistake. The canvas
scenery—always painted in water colors,
never in oil—is first “sized” with a prepara
tion of whiting and glue, before the colors
are laid on, and may be held above the gas
for almost any length of time without ignit
ing—only, smouldering. Fires in theatres
are usually-j&e result of carelessness or -the
work of am* incendiary. Sometimes a slow
match—as demonstrated by the late fire at
"Winter Garden—is left to burn during the
day. Of course, when once the flames have
caught the dry ropes and gas-heated timbers,
in the open area of a theatre, they make quick
and devastating work.

Women and Politics—A Spicy Eettcr
From IU mitt me Novcllo.
A Scotch paper—the Paisley and Ren
frewshire Gaze tic —publishes the following
letter from Madame Novcllo:
“ To Mary &- . : Deal Mai>am:-t*l
read with delight, in the Paisley and ■ Ren
frewshire Gazette for the 7th December,
'your charmingly objurgatory letter, in which
you inculcate cretinism as the fittest state of
woman-mind. I say read, but should rather
say heard, as my kind sister read it to me in
my sick room, where was assembled- a bevy
of fair girls, cheering the darkened room to
whichl am condemned by reason of. my
weak eyesight. Your admonitions were
hailed with shrieks of approbation, by audi
tors employed most notably hemming pocket
handkerchiefs, darning socks, pre
paring for Christmas pudding and in
other occupations unobjectionable to
the advocates of Noodledom. I was so
impressed by your solemn adjuration to relin
quish everything but household drudgery
that I should at once become your disciple
did not a few doubts cause me to hover-in
perplexed uncertainty. The above-mentioned
girls, who work so tidily and nimbly, cau
also speak and write fluently several lan
guages, can play Beethoven in masterly style
and sing Gounod mellilluously—they are
quite little nightingales in song as in active
nursing; worse still, these deft sewers and
darners are actually iuterested in Italiau
politics. [Please do not mention this fact to
Mr. Crum-Ewing, as ho might think, ‘Woe
betide their future husbands 1 Ilow can such
girls mind them, especially should they be
Italian patriots ?’]
“As a spinster, I feel embarrassed by Mr.
Crum-Ewing’s injunction; that every woman
should mind her husband and children. Can
he suggest how I may do so, not possessing
such chattels? Yet, notwithstanding this
lack, I have found plenty of hard work to do
in this world. I can boast of no unusual at
tainments or great science—in fact, lam al
most ignorant enough to satisfy the notions of
Mr. Crum-Ewing & Co.; but I never found
the little knowledge I possess an impediment
to my domestic duties. An intimacy with
German literature has not prevented my knit
ting socks by dozens for my brother; the
study of music and counterpoint haß never
been in my way when making a linseed poul
tice; and a slight acquaintance with anatomy
has materially aided me when making rag
dolls for the ecstatic gratification of poor
children.
“You being converted to the ‘Female cre
tinism theory’ are quite justified ia- launching
a thunderbolt at Mary Cowaen Clarke’s head
for troubling itself about Shakespeare; you
are convinced, doubtless, that an intellect ex
ercised in profound research cannot possibly
suffice to the concoction of an apple dump
ling; nay, could not -comprehend any better
than could the brain of George I. how the
apple managed to get inside the paste, the
Biirface of which is completely closed in,
leaving no orifice through which to insert the
apple. Yet, though your argument would
seem conclusive, I must own that my sister,
Mrs. Cowdeii Clarke, is the most domestic
woman alive, and for months daily cooked a
mutton chop for her husband’s lunch, when
his health required dainty food; nor did I
ever hear him complain that her Sliakespe
rian studies (she was then writing the ‘Con
cordance’) ever caused her to burn or smoke
his -chops. And as to Mrs. Somerville, I
should agree with you in conjuring her to
leave oil'mathematical calculations and ab
struse reasoning (star-gazing must unfit a wo
man for common .sense work), were it not
that a friend of mine, calling on her, found
her writing out a washing bill—and, incredi
ble as it may appear, quite correctly.
“All these little facts waver in
my resolution to join the cretinism sect.
Other communications add qualms to my con
science; if we all take to bed-making and
shirt-stitching what will become of poor
housemaids and needlewomen? Honest Bet
seys and Sukeys will be deprived of their
hard-earned wages, unless, indeed, ,we beg
our husbands to eat two dinners daily and
sleep in two beds nightly, in order that by
ministering personally to their creature
comforts we do not cruelly injure a large and
worthy portion of our sex. But methinks
Mr. .Crum-Ewing pays but a poor com
pliment to his own sex by imagining that
women cannot mind their husbands if they
attend to politics. A little mental cosseting
comforts some men wonderfully. To a man
returning home with an incipient cold, a
■ basin of gruel and warmed slippers near a
cosy fire arc chSrmiug, especially when pre
pared by a smiling wife. But cases occur
when a husband returns home well in health,
but'harassed by anxieties or soured by dis
appointment; then gruel is inane and slippers
are ineffectual. Then a woman best minds
her husband who can fully enter into even
knotty points of law or politics, can sympa
thize with his plans of great enterprise or
philanthropic social reform, leaving stocking
darning and bedmaking to the Betties of this
world. '
“Many a gifted woman may and does
combine the Minerva and the Phillis—can on
the same evening read to her husband a poem
written by herself and reach him a posset
prepared by the same lair band—can toast
him his muffin and play him Mendelssohn
while he eats it. Happy am Ito know that
thousands of women thus mind their hus
bands, and would continue to do so though
they became independent voters of Great,
Britain. By my letter you will perceive that I
am not yet«converted to the ‘female cretinism
theory,’ though duly edified by your remon
strance. I feel still in a helpless State of ex
asperating vacillation. However, as a fa
vorite maxim of Noodledom says ‘a woman
should hold no strong opinion of her own, I
hope this confession of my imbecility will
commend me to your good opinion; in
which hope I remain, dear madam, yours ad
miringly, Sabii.la Novei.lo,
“Villa Novello, Via 8. Giacomo, Genoa,
December 10, 1807.”
The London Lancet, an excellent medical
authority, sounds a note of alarm concerning
the efiects of .imperfect ventilation in
churches. Its comments and suggestions are
as applicable in this country as in England:
“Now that we have done so much for im
proving the health of our soldiers in barracks,
and something is being done for our sick poor
in workhouses, we think it would be well for
church-wardens and others to direct atten
tion to the ventilation of churches. Of course;
where so many of those buildings have
fallen into comparative disuse, in localities
where -fhe -population is-a- migratoryvrone
and spends its Sundays ■ away, there
is ample cubic space, and the question be
comes one of securing warmth during the
winter months; but it is far otherwise in
some churches. We had our attention
forcibly directed to this a few Sundays ago,
while occupying a seat in the gallery of a
church in the neighborhood of London. Ttie
congregation was a very large one, the
preacher being a popular and able man; but
not a single window was open, even,to the
extent of an inch. On entering, a faint, dis
agreeable smell was at once obvious, and
before the service was completed this
had increased viiitil the church had become
quite stuffy from . the vitiated air confined
within the building. The neighborhood of
the organ was occupied by Sunday School
children, closely packed together. Under -
the most advantageous circumstances, owing
to their position, the very faulty construction
of the edifice, and the confined space of the
organ-loft, these children would not have
reaped the full benefit of an efl'ort at ventilai
tion by open windows; but without this, or
aDy provision by shafts or other expedients

THE DAILY; EVENING BULLBTIN.-PBILABELPHIA, SATURDAY, FEBRUARY 1.1868.
A Fort Mtichlimc Indian Bigs Up an
Antique Medal of the 'lime oft the
Roman ft ntperor Trajan.
ll’rom tlio Detroit Free Frees.]
We were shown a few days ago by G. M.
Wendell, of Mackinac, a relic, in the shape,
of an old. Roman coin or daedal, in an ex
cellent state of preservation, with the inscrip
tions and figures quite distinct and in good
relief. This coin, Mr. Wendell states, was
given to him by an Indian at Fort Mackinac,
who said he had found it, or dug it up, in the
earth. This being the fact, the opening for
speculation is wide as to how it came there.
The first thought is that it was brought to
the New World by the Jesuit missionaries,
who, in their self-sacrificing devotion to their
chosen duty, penetrated the heart of the con
tinent generations ago, and made their
dwelling place amoDg the aborigines, while
they endeavored to teach them the truths of
the cross. Or this mute relic of the ages
might have been brought by the Nordmen,
who, venturing away from Icelandic
or Scandinavianharbors, coasted at
length along the shores of North- America, '
and from thence carried it inland till it found
the resting-place from which it has now been
exhumed. Or still another hypothesis: The
ancient working of the Lake Superior mines,
so evidently the labor of a more enlightened
race than the Indian, may have been the
means of bringing the coin hither. But if
this -were so, why have not more of them or
similar relics been discovered? The first([of
the above premises is no doubt the correct
one, and this coin has served as a pocket
piece to Father Marquette, or some one of
his coadjutors. And in this connection it
might have a striking significance to some
persons, as it belonged to the time and reign
when the new religion of Christ was begin
ning to be preached, having been struck oil’
in the beginning df the second century. It
would thus be a significant accompaniment
to the introduction of Christianity into the
New World.
The coin, which is the size of a nickel
cent; and as thick as an American
piece (which some of our readers may ■ re
member having seen), bears upon the face
a medallion portrait of the Roman
Emperor Trajan, surrounded, by this in
scription :
I.Mi'F.r.ATom Tka.ta.no Acousto Gej:.—
Dao.—P. M.—T.—R.—Coss.—V. P. R.
“The Senate and people of Rome to the con
queror of the Germans and Dacians, Chief
Ruler.”
Upon the reverse is the figure, of a Roman
warrior clad in.armor, , with spear and shield,
.with these words:
S. P. Q. R —Optima Pkixoipi.— “The Sen
ate and the PeoDie of Rome to the best (or
most cherished) Prince.”
Trajan, one of the greatest and most be
loved of the Roman Emperors, was born, as
most authorities agree, at a town on the
Gundalquiver, near Seville, Spain, on the 18th
of September, A. D. Gil, and was the son of
an officer in the Roman service. He issued
edicts against informers, curbed the insolence
of the Pnctorian troop 3, appointed men of
high character to public offices, made pro
vision for supporting the poor, victualed
Rome by allowing the entrance of grain free
of duty, etc. He founded extensive libraries
in Rome, one of which became very cele
brated. The story of the forum which bears his
name, and the columns which he erected in
honor of his Dacian triumph, and beneath
which his ashes were placed in a golden urn,
need not be recounted here. The immense
military bridge which he built across the
Danube, by which his army passed into the
country of Decebalus, King of the Dacians,
was the largest work of the kind built by the
ancients. It consisted of 20 piers, 150 feet
high, GO feet wide, and 17b feet apart, and
united by wooden arches.
This, his second triumph over the Dacians,
and their complete subjection, was accom
plished in 101, and this is very probably the
date at which the relic in question was struck
oft'. Trajan' died in August, 117, after
having carried the Roman arms into the far
East, being taken sick after the siege of
Alr;e, in Mesopotamia, and dying at Seli
nus, in the province of Cilicia, on his svay
home.
This little relic, insignificant in itself, has
come down through the centuries from the
times of the ruler under whose command the
Roman arms were carried further than ever
before or after..

Senate.
The supplementary reconstruction bill was again
taken up.
Mr. Howe, of Wisconsin, addressed the Senate,
lie quoted from Mr. Doolittle’s remarks In regard to
what he said on the proposed measure, and said upon
wliat evidence did the Senator charge the Republican
party with desertion of their color and their kind'/
They proposed to enfranchise the colored race. The
effect of this enfranchisement could not be to make
that race dominant over tho whites, for they were not
In the majority, hud, oven if they were, they were not
actuated by tho unscrupulous ambition of the whites.
They asked only protection of their- rlghtß, not
political power.
The Senator claimed that the only way to qualify the
negroes for the ballot was to place It in their hands.
He urged there w:as the same authority to exercise Icg
3(dative power over South Carolina as over New
Mexico. Be claimed that the Imputation of the Sen
ator from Indiana, that the Republicans wished tp
place the garlands of tiro soldiers bn the black; was
unfair and untrue. Those with whom that Senator
, acted had never shown any anxiety about the garlands
of the soldiers who wore them. Mr. Howe said all on
the other side of tho chamber had closed their ha
rangues with terrible threats and prophecies of blus
ter to the Republican party In the comtng autumn.
He did not fear them, hut were it so, the contest
Would not then be ended. He said no man could con
scientiously go Into his closet and pray to his Creator
for other objects In tills struggle than those for which
the Republican party will vote, and closed by eulogiz
ing Its efforts hitherto, charging the Democratic parly
with the entire responsibility for the war, and bypre
dieting the success and triumphant vindication of the
Congressional polley.
C'QRI'ORATIOK UII,I*
Mr. Ferrv, of Connecticut, obtained the lloor on
the bill, but
On motion of Mr. Ha nr. an the further consideration
was postponed to Monday, and the Senate took up
the hill to provide for the formation of corporations
and regulating the same in the District of Columbia,
■which was discussed by Messrs. Johnson, Harlan,
Willey, Mprrill, of Vermont, and Conkling, the latter
condemning It as granting unprecedented license.
The bill was amended to as to require the princinal
offices of the corporation to be kept in the District" of
Columbia, and by making private property of the
atockliolders in certain cases liable to the amount of
par value of his stock.
After further verbal amendment, the bill was passed
io a third reading, and
Mr. BiTKAi.Ew.of Pennsylvania, called for tho yeas
and nays on its final passage.
There being - not mofc than twenty Senators pre
sent, ' *
On motion of Mr. Harlan, the bill was postponed.
Mr. be.-crjKn tried to call up the bill to regulate the

KESTTCKV ELECTIONS.
The House then proceeded to the consideration of
the Kentucky election case from the Second Comrres
jrionul District.
The Committee on Elections reported three resolu
iioii • cp follows:
First, That John Young IJrown, having voluntarily
pheu aid, countenance, counsel, and encouragement
to pernor.* engaged in armed hostility to the United
States, ie not entitled to take the oath of office as a
Heprehentative In this Uouse,Bfrom the Second Con
gressional District of Kentucky, or to hold a seat
ahereiu na such Representative.
Second, That Samuel E. Smith, not having re
ceived a majority of the votes cast for Representa
tives in this IJoue*-, from the Second District of Ken
tucky, is not entitled to a seat therein as such I<ct>~
ZfJrtDtaUve.
Third, That the Speaker be directed to notify the
Governor of Kentucky that a vacancy exists in the
representation in this House from the Second Con
cessional District of Kentucky.
On motion of the Chairman of the Committee on
Elections, It was ordered that the resolutions be dis
cussed and considered Beparately.
Mr. Dawes, of Massachusetts, then addressed the
Bom-e in support of the first resolution, explaining
the facta on which It was based. The main and cole
cyiaence against Mr. Brown is the having written, on
.his own admission, a letter dated April 8, and
published in the Louisville Courier, May 15,16ti1,c0r-
Tectlng a report of his remarks at a public nicotine as
-pubnshed tn that naper/Tind' &ayThe that what he did'
pay was this: ‘’Not one man or one dollar will
Kentucky furnish Lincoln to aid him in Ida unholy
war against the South. If this Northern arrnv shall
attempt to croe* our borders we will resist U unto the
death, and if one man shall be found in our Common
wealth to volunteer to join, he ought to, and I believe
•will be, shot down before he leaves'the State.'’
Mr. Dawes explained that the defense of Mr. Brown
is that the time that letter was written Kentucky had
.led the position of neutrality between the United
states and. those angairad in- armed hostility thereto
and the very best Union men of Kentucky had
assumed that position, and had eoujrht to bring the
£Hate Into that position, as the very best means of
paying it from being.drawn into the vortex of the re
bellion.
COTTON TAX
Pending the discuttiun, Mr. Allison made a report
Irom the conference committee on the cotton tax bill,
Ibe amendment agre*-d upon being the addition of the
loiiGKimr clause: “And cotton Imported from foreign
countries on and after November 1,13 CS. ehaU be ex
empt from doty.” Be gave a brief history of the bill,
and of the various attempts to reconcile the conilict
mg views of both bouses on the subject. He said
that the conference committee on the part of the
House did not feel that it could not talc the respon
sibility of destroying the bill, for itSvas palpably
evident that this belli" the third conference commit
tee, onless it could agree the Senate would not con
pent to any further conference. This was the very
best proposition that could he obtained. Under it
the American producer of cotton would not have the
protection he now has—equal to 1# cents a pound.
it was deemed important by the committee that the
tax be removed eo to encourage the growth of cotton
In 1869; and, therefore, the report was agreed to, but
y ith the understanding on the part of the House con
imestbat, when the question of tariff came up for
ml j ustment at tills session, the whole subject could be
revived.
The conferees had. therefore, been rcluctanly: com
pelled to assent to this preposition.
Mr. Boooks asked Mr. Allison whether the Hon«e
was to understand that it must take this bill or
nothin!:.
Mr. Allison repeated Ills belief that if this con
ference report was not agreed to. the Semite would
not agTee to the appointment ot a new conference
committee.
Mr. Br.ooKS expressed the conviction that under
lhcse circumstances the House would not be gratified
in rejecting the report.
Alier an animated discussion, the report o£ the
conference committee was agreed to—yeas, 204; nays,
d->S
Sir. Schbnck, of Ohio, asked that the title of the
bill be read.
Tire Clerk read the title, “A bill to.provide for, the
exemption of cotton from internal taxation."
Mr. Sc hence remarked that the title told the whole
Rtory. The House' had passed a bill to repeal the in
ternal taxation, and the Senate was determined to tack
to it that which related to a totally different subject,
and was determined that nothing should he done for
the grower of American cotton, unless at the same
time for the benefit of certain American manufactur
ers. It appeared that when the matter was last up in
the House be had made an unlucky remark'in re
lation to the bill, that if the House would bo but do
tided and firm in a matter where it supposed itself
right, he knew of nothing more likely to recede than
the Semite of the United States. It seemed that that
remark had given offense in the Senate, where it had
been commented npon and found Innit with, ne
-desired now to make an apology to the Senate. He
. bad l fought that, on sober second thought, and after
time for reduction, the Senate would, recede from the
ground which it had, as the House believed, wrongly
taken. But he saw he was mistaken; he therefore re
tracted the remark, and admitted that the Senate was
just as muli-h and obstinate as it claimed to be.
{Laughter.] *
The Speakeii interrupted, stating that that remark
was hardly proper. Each House should refer to the
other in a parliamentary manner.
Mr Schenck— Then I retract that remark, for I
wish to give no offense to our suixtriors (laughter), or
to those at the other end of the' Capitol. I only wish
to say that the Senate, like the court, "knowß itself,"’
and is more decided than I supposed it to be when an
opportunity was afforded. Mr Schcnck went on to
buow that, for the sake of two or three small manu
facturertfof Surat cotton in this country, chiefly for
grain bags and other coarse requirements, the Senate
was refusing to take off the tax of two and a half
cents a pound on American cotton, unless these manu
facturers were benefited to the extent of four and a
half cents per pound, currency, on their imported cot
ton. If he Bhould vote to concur with the Senate on
this report ho should do so only on the ground on
winch tho" gontleman from Now York (Mr. Brooks)
placed it—for the sake of relieving the cotton interest
from n burden it could not boar, and ho did not know
that he was fully justified in going so far.
Mr. Baine, of Wisconsin, called the attention of
the House to the fact that while the House waß by a
very large majority in favor of repealing the cotton
tax, tne benate was in favor of it, it at all, by a very
l e majority. The removal .of the tax on imported
cotton was carried In the Senate by the. votc&of the
SfSi” 1 the Pacific States, who had gotrti little
il ltc J cst growing up there from the
importation of Mexican cotton, and who had made n
specific point that they must have that cotton free of
Mr. Pike, or Maine, expressed the hopcr that the
lts . d| pti!ty and adhere to (ts
most Scellent^?e™it. Ul “ oby £allod tlmt woal(1 *»>.
Mr. Blaine remarked that his colleague oneht to
state he was-agalmst the cotton tax being taken oh -
Mr. Pike continued to argue that If the bill did fail,
then the question would go where itou-'ht to eo-into
the general bill. He hopedStherc bo no specW
legislation in favor of cotton, or any other interest if
the Chairman of the Committee of Ways and Means
(Mr. Schenck) Intended his remarks ns threats of free
trade, then he would say to him that he did not fear
tree trade to its utmost extent, if that was to be es
tablished ns the policy of the country. ■
denied that he had mado nny threats
Mr. Moorhead, of Pennsylvania, hoped the House
would not yield, hut would stand flrmlv where it had
stood all the time. - ■ „' : ,
Jir. Kei.i.ey thought Ih l '‘U tiOTi of the Senate very
lniudlciouß, if not absolutely improper, but so import
ant was, the repeal of the cotton tax now that he
would yield to the imperative demand of the Senate,
and vote for ibe conference report.
Mr. Barnes, of New York, spoke in favor of the
I report.
Mr. Allison, of lowa, dosed the debate, and said
that the only reason why he believed there shonld be a
small tariff duty on cotton waß that some revenue
should be derived from it. That question, however,
could be adjusted hereafter. This removal of the
tariff on cotton wag only to commence on the Ist of
November, 1608, so that Congress would have another
opportunity of testingthe question. It was for that
reason he had assented totho conference report.
The question was taken by yeas and nays, and the
conference report adopted—yeas 101, nayß 43. The
bill now goes to the President.
The Speaker presented a communication from the
Secretary ot the Navy, in answer to a resolution as to
discriminations against soldiers and aaiiorß in appoint
ments in the Navy Department. Referred to the Com
mittee on Naval Affaire.
Also, a communication from the Secretary of the
Treasury, relative to the proposed sale of stock in the
Diemai Swamp Canal Company. Same reference.
Also, letters from Governor Pease and Jndge Caid
well, of Texas, in reference to affairs in that State.
Deferred to theßeconstruction Committee.
Mr. Wasiiulkne, of-.lllinois, from the Committee
on Appropriations, reported the naval appropriation
bill, appropriating $16,000.015, which was made the
special order for the 16th of February.
Albo. the consular and diplomatic appropriation bill,
appropriating $1,201,431. Becommltted.
Mi.Xoan, of Maine, from the Committee on Bevo
lutionnry Pensions, reported a bill g.viig pensions
to soldiers and sailors of the war of 1612. Recom
mitted.
The House resumed the consideration of file Ken
tucky election eases. \
The views of Mr. Shellabarger, of Ohio, who is at
home, were submitted in writing, and. read trom the
Cleric's desk, against the admission of Mr. Brown.
Mr. Cdam.ek, of New York, spoke briefly against
thi- report of the committee, and then, without dis
posing of the question, and with the understanding
that fhe discussion would be continued to-morrow,
the House, at 4 o'clock, adjourned.
