Ilte various branches of the Workingmen's
Benevolent Association are now voting on the
question of making eight hours a legal day's
woik—legal according to the laws of the W.
B. A., I mean ; 1 for it makes precious little dif
ference to them what the Pennsylvania Legis
lature may say on the subject: The cOmmittee
appointed to count the votes will meet at'
Tamaqua on the 20th, and if the result is in
favor of the eight-hour movement, the usual
method will be adopted to enforce it : c.,
general suspension will take place, throughout
the entire anthracite region on the first of
June. This will tend to bring matters to a
focus one way - or the other.
To change the - subject. It will - be remem
bered that one of Brooklyn's representative
men, named Voorhies, was brutally murdered
a few months ago. His murderer was tried,
acquitted on the ground of insanity, and the
allitirwas - forgottn -by--everybody buta - certain - i
Massachusetts newspaper, which, after, appar- I
- curly, several months of hard work, has dis
covered that the murderer is William - Cr.
Chambers, formerly of Company K, Twenty
ninth Massachusetts Volunteers, who, after,
trying vigorously to have Col. Peirce ' of that
regiment, court-martialed, and being aided and
abetted therein hy Lieut.-Col. Barnes, of the
same regiment, finally deserted, was
supposed to be in Philadelphia,
until he "turned up as a tutu- .
tlerer in New York," and being acquitted
on tIM plea of insanity, was promptly Corn
milted by Judge Barnard to the State Lunatic
Asylum at, Utica, " where, behind his bars; he

it is, the " bars" of the Utica. Insane AsyluM

wide enough to permit the escape of the sub

in this place for the last six months, and who,

Forty-rirsi Congress...aSeeond Session.
In the United States Senate, yesterday, the
bill to enforce the Fifteenth Amendment was
discussed. Mr. Cragin spoke at an evening ses
sion in advocacy of the bill to prevent polygamy
in Utah. •
The House of Reprepentatives passed the Na
val Appropriation bill. During the debate en
titebilli Hon., Charles O'Neill made a defence
of the Navy Department as carried on during
the administrations of ex-Secretary Borie and
Secretary Robeson. He repelled the charges
made that Admiral Porter had been or was now
the actual Secretary, and while doing ample
credit to the ability of that gallant officer,he said
that in every administration of the Department
there were always
.distin b ouished naval officers
detailed there, as, for instance,Under Secretary
Welles, Captain Fox and other distinguished
- naval oilicers were at the head of the Bureaus,
just as now: We find them. He also showed
- die necessity at all times of these sub-divisions
of labor there, and that the service demanded'
the presence in the D *dame nt of distinguished
officers, who knew by experience the wants in
detail of the navy/ • He also refuted the allega
tion. that the immense expenditures in the
navy during the , late , had not' .produce.d
