Ihe abuse that has been heaped upon them for making a report in favor of expelling Messrs. Ames and Brooks cannot be justified, and if it were not that the Democrats hold the balance of power, so that without many of their votes, a two thirds majority cannot be obtained, Messrs. Ames and Brooks would have been expelled ere this. At the same time there is no doubt that many Republi cans, have been well satisfied to evade the direct issue of a vote against them and to flv off at a tangent into questions of jurisdiction. Opinions upon the right to expel for causes occurring prior to election to Congress may be legitimately and honestly en tertained ; but, under the Constitution of the United States, "each house mav determine the rules of its pro ceedings and, with the concurrence of two-tbirds, expel a member," and "shall be the judge of the qualifica tions of its members."

This practice has be come a crying evil ; it is neither just, reasonable or right, exempting as it does, churches, halls.and other public buildings, worth many millions, from their ebare of the public burdens and imposing it upon individuals.

After much skirmishing Mr. Ma hon, of Franklin, succeeded at an af ternoon session on Wednesday in call ing up the Senate bill supplementary to the local option law. For a time the opponents of the bill tried to kill ume by making dilatory motions, sev eral sections were offered as amend ments by Mr. Ballcntinc, of Alle gheny, and adopted, and the bill push ed to a third reading. On the ques tion of a suspension of the rules that the bill could be put on its final passage, the yeas were 50, nays 35 Not two thirds so the bill goes over until Monday evening when it will be certain to pass. This vote is regarded as a test on the repeal of the local option, and the friends of the law feel secure that the question of repeal cannot be carried in the Legislature. On Thursday an animated discus sion took place in the House in com mitee of the whole on the repeal of the Usury Laws. The advocates of the bill claim that under our present laws capital is being diverted from our State, and that other states who have more liberal laws on the subject arc building np manufactories etc. and increasing 'n wealth and popula tion at our expense, and with capital legitimately belonging to the ftate of Pennsylvania those who oppose the bill claim that those arguments are fallacious, and do not believe that the laws as they now stand require any change. Withoutreachingany conclu sion the committee rose,with leave to sit again. The bill pending to repeal all laws exempting real estate, cemeteries ex cepted, from taxation is creating some inquiry as to the value of real estate now exempted from taxatiof under the present laws In the city of Philadelphia alone the value of property so exempted amountsto fifty-five million of dollars, and every successive Legislature is flooded with bills which increase this sum from year to year, and it is be lieved by many that the only effectual way of putting a stop to this class of legislation is to pass the present bill. The bill increasing the capital stock of the Pennsylvania Rail Road Company to an unlimited amount.did not fare ao well in the hands of Gov ernor Ilartranft as was expected, and to save it from a vote, its friends were fain to recall the bill from the Gov ernor's Lands for amendment, which was done by limiting the amount of stock. has been marred by the want of room and due preparation.

M. Worilfr and Knlclde In Nlnnenoi. CmcAdo, February 22. A most horrible ease of premeditated murder and suicide occurred at Waseca, Minnesota, on Monday last. It ap pears that two Germans, named Al exander Busen and John Ruff, the former married, the latter unmarried, owned and worked a farm together, and that finally Busen was driven away and Ruff took full possession of the farm and of the Busen family. Recently the grand jury found an indictment against Ruff and the wo man for adultery, which greatly alarmed them. On Tuesday morning last the ncighliors, going to Busen's house, found it shut up, and breaking in, discovered Mrs. Ruff and her youngest child lying on the bed bathed in blood, their throats cut from ear to ear. On the floor beside the Vied lay the lifeless body of Ruff, with his throat also cut. From a letter left by both the man and the women, it is evident that they agreed upon this tragic method of escape from the clutches of the law. v Hsaongabel City, Fa. M O HO NO A n F.

Immc diately upon the call to order this morning Mr. Mahon, of Franklin, offered his resolution for a special ses sion this afternoon. Mr. Ballcntinc amended it by mak ing public bills on the calendar the special order. This would throw them within three bills of the local option bill, and within easy reach The resolution was adopted with the amendment. Shortly after this several commit ters, which had been in session, came into tho House, and when informed of the advantage the local option men had gained, went to work to re consider tbe resolution. This brought Mahon up again, and an exciting d bate took place. Mr. MAHON gave notice to the friends of local option that it was in tended to do away with the advant age they had gained. Mr. McCORMIC Ksaid that the gentleman from Franklin, by one frivolous objection after another, had prevented public legislation. He was readji to meet it, but all the delay which this bill has suffered is from the friends of the bill. This bill was reported on last Weduesday. Mr. Mahon replied sharply, and Speaker Elliott called him to order. Mr. Mahon paid that if the Speak er thought him out of order perhaps a majority of the House did not. Tbe latter tried to calm matters by asking for a vote. Mr. Josephs tried to get in a word but Elliott called him to order. On the call of ayes and nays the reconsideration was defeated by 39 to 59, and the temperance men were fif teen votes ahead. Mr. Wainright offered the follow ing: Resolved, that the Committee of Ways and Means be instructed to in quire into tne propriety of appoint ing a commission to revive and amend the tax laws of this Common wealth. The object of the resolution is to provide a source of revenue which will be stricken out of the estimate if the local option bill passes. Mr. Sample rose to a privileged question. He had been misrepre sented by the press reports, but took no notice of it while away, knowing that ho had voted right, and, as he imagined, was rightly recorded in the official journal of the House; but, ed, the amendment carried, and the bill was agreed to. Mr. Josephs next moved to recon sider the vote on the Centennial Com missioners' bill. Not agreed to. Mr. Welsh, of Philadelphia, moved to adjourn. Mr. Mahon said the House euuld understand that tactic. The option bill was at last reached at half-past four. Mr. Wainright moved to except the citv ot Pittsburg. Not agreed to. Then came one amendment after another in a perfect shower. Mr. McCoruiick moved that the city of Pittsburgh shall vote separate ly from the county, and if the vote shall be in favor of it the present li cense laws shall remain in force. Not agreed to. Mr. Ballentine offered a new sec tion the to Senate bill passed by Mr. Graham, and which was on Monday night referred to the Vice and Immor ality Committee. Mr. McCormick moved to include the townships. Let them have a full sw'ng nt it. Mr. N c win ver objected. II is tow n ship had a prohibitory law, and they did not want it changed. Mr. McCormick asked why Ncwmv- er did not vote to make the city of Pittsburgh a separate uistnet. Mr. Newmyer How do vou know but what I did? There were no yeas and navs. Mr. McCormick I heard yoursten- torian voice. The Ballcntinc amendment was agreed to. Mr. Welsh moved to postpone fur ther consideration. Mr. Mahon replied sharply. The majority of the House has control of the bill, and he asked them to stay in their places till six o'clock in the morning rather abandon the bill in a position where it would be hopeless ly lost. Stay and pass it up to the third reading. The motion to postpone was voted down, and the clerk commenced on the second reading of the bill. The notice to be given was re duced to eight days. Mr. Latta then moved that the rules be suspended and the bill put on its final passage. Mr. Jo-cphs was indignant that they should press the final passage, and said Mr. Mahon had agreed to lay it over. Mr. Mahon said he was mistaken. Mr. Mitchell said that he thought a majority could pass the bill. Here was trouble anew. The point of order was read from Smull s man ual, that when a special session was fixed for the consideration of any bill it did not then reouirc a two-thirds vote to pass the bill. Speaker Elliott ruled the point not well taken, aud the roll was called sixty -one to thirty-five.falling short five votes of two-thirds. All the Alleghe ny delegation voted for the bill except McCormick and Wainright. Harrisburg, Februrav 28. The Senate met this morning. Mr. Gra ham presented a petition from citizens ofMeClurc township to be annexed to Allegheny. Mr. Humphreys pre sented petitions from citizens of Mc- Kecsport and MfUiin for the passage of a supplement relative to the liquor law in Allegheny county. Mr. uu tan presented a petition from one citi zen of Beaver for the aid of the Cen tennial celebration. Also, from one hundred and thirty-nine citizens of Beaver protesting against the further importation of Chinese labor. Mr. Humphreys reportcu a bill incorpo rating the South Side Laad Im provement Company. Ihe following bills were read in place : Mr. Rutan, for Speaker, rela tive to elections in churches and relig ious denominations, enabling all per sons of lawful age attending to vote in the election of trustees, etc; also, a supplement to the Pcnn avenue act providing for the repeal of the act compelling commissioners to a uni form pavement throughout the length of the road improved, and empower ing them to lay any kind of pavement whether uniform or otherwise. The resolution providing for ad journment on Monday evening was reconsidered aud Thursday morning fixed as the time for reassembling.

A 6EALEP bottle was picked up the other day in Grant's Pass, on the Alabama coast, which when opened proved to contain a memorandum dated off the coast of Alaska, June 29, 1870, on board the ship James, and in the Russian language, announc ing that the ship had foundered and was broken in pieces. This bottle most have drifted through the North and South Pacific Ocean, doubled the Horn, and in its voyage through the Atlantic fallen in with the great equa torial current and been swept by it in to the Caribbean Sea, where the Gulf Stream caught it and carried it round the circuit of the Gulf, landing it, after its voyage of two and a half years, in the Pass, where it was found. It was a long journey for a bottle to take with out getting its neck broke. ' Boston. February 27. George A. Sammett's mattress factory, corner of Hanover and Blackstone streets. was burned this morning. A large number of girls were at work at the time. Many pimped from the third story windows and received probably fatal injuries. The walls fell about an hour after the fire broke out, and several firemen were killed, including B P. Stowell, James Shriek and James Price, Jr. The wound ed are C. H. Scott. O. L. Wood, Charles A. Scott, Thos. Merrett. Charles Ingersoll, William Lecan and another. The wounded were taken to the city hospital. It is feared there are a'numlier more under the ruins. The firemen are removing tlje debris. Latkr. The fire in Sammett's mattress manufactory broke out about ten this morning. Sixteen girls were at work in the fourth story. They all reached the adjoining roof and were safely rescued, except Mary El len Moore, w ho was injured in jump ing from the third story, and Mary Keys, in jumping from one roof to an other. At eleven the upper portion of the walls fell outward, carrying with them the ladders and a score of firemen. Sammett occupied the three upper stories of the building, which was of brick. The second story and ground floor were occupied by Fes senden t Osgood, dry goods dealers ; riper, confectioner ; Norton, restaur ant; Harris, hair dresser ; McLoud, produce dealer; Lowell, plumber. The killed were John Price. Jr.. lames Starps, B. P. Stowell. Sev enteen persons in all injured many seriously, including Sammett. No bodies have been recovered. The latest reports of the Hanover street fire state that Mary Babb and ijizzte l links, two girls employed by Sammett, are missing and probably buried in the ruins. A fireman nam ed Hayes is also missing. The total known casualties to the firemen arc two killed outright, two supposed fatally wounded, twelve more or less injured and one missing. Tho pec uniaty loss is not fully known, prob ably about $50,000 ; mostly insured. The walls of the building were a mere sham, pieced out of old and new material. The three upper stories had been built upon the lower por tion, with eight inch walls. The top pling of he upper walls threw the ladders, which were filled with fire. men, uutward, dashing them to death and terrible injuries. peace, lias tried one thousand cases, hut five of which were appealed, and in but three of these w ere his judg ments reversed. The Louisville Courier-Journal thinks that "that old gentleman was cut out f"r a ji'.dge of the Supr.imc Court, ami it is a pity somebody ilid'n't tell him so at the start." Captain Jack Hinson, a former rebel bushwhacker, died at White Oak j Creek, Tenn., on the 7th inst., aged SO. lie vowed venyeanie on the! nationaHroops because of the inva-! siou cf his household by a party of lawless soldiers. It is said that he made a notch on the butt of his rifle for every man he killed. There were ever eighty of these notches. That the old man was permitted to die in his bed instead of on the gallows is a proof of the forbearance of the gov ernment. The engine-house of the Indiana polis, Blooinington and Western Rail road nt Indianapolis was destroyed by fire Tuesday night, together with two engines, which it "vas found im possible to remove. The loss will be about $10,000. A fireman named Harlan, who was asleep in tho wait ing-room of the building, had a very narrow escape from being burned to death. He had had no sleep for two nights, and being completely worn out, did not awake until surrounded by the flames, and was so overcome by the smoke that he was unable to help himself, and but for the presence of mind displayed by an employee named Jacob Hughes, w ho, after a vain attempt to force the door of the room, cut his way through the side wall and dragged him out, he must have met an awful death. He was much burned about the face, neck and hands, the flesh on the latter being nearly all burned off. ell his resilient this niorniii covered tl.e soi'-u a. Iv oil his in :t !.
