CONGRESS PROCEEDINGS OF YESTERDAY.
In THE sSENArE-A number of engrossed
bills which were yesterday ordered to third
reading, were reported BY the Committees, but,
before reading them the third time and passing
.hem, although one was the bill TO provide Tor
an additional Naval force, which the Senate
were anxious to pass yesterday. the Wee PRE-
srDENr announced The order Of The day TO be
the Resolution offered by Mr.. Branch of n C..
which was transferred from the Executive to
the Legislative Journal, denying the power OF
the Executive to appoint Foreign Ministers,
without the advice and consen! OF the Senate,
except during the recess.
Mr. Branch then rose and delivered his SEN
timents in favor Of the resolution at some
length, and was followed by Mr.. Randolph. IN

the extraordinary latitude allowed him in de-

WEDNESDAY, JUNE 81, 1926.

GENERAL CoURT.-It was expected that
the Legislature would adjourn yesterday. In
consequence Of the shortness of the session,
several important subjects will necessarily be
postponed to the winter session. The prop
osition to suspend the operation of the new
road law, has been negatived by a decided
majority and it will, consequently, go into
effect on the first of next month, giving an OPP
portunity to test the comparative merits of the
old and the new plans. We hope that, on
tHrial, the advantages of the latter may be
found so great that no disposition will be felt
to return to the former. The bill, limiting
4he liability of Stockholders in Mauufa curing
Corporations, was passed in the House on the
l4th inst. after a sholt discussion, without a
division. On the 18th, the Senate postponed
the consideration of it to the next session, for
want OF time to discuss its merits.
The subject of Internal improvements has
occupied the attention of the Legislature,
and specific projects have been referred TO
Committees TO report at the next session.
The subject of Board of Commissioners, it
will be seen, has been introduced, but we do
not learn what decision has been had in re-
iation to il. A bill repeating the Jaw of last
session in relation to Usury, has passed the
House after an animated and interesting dis
oussion. What has been its fate 10 the SEN
ate We do not learn. correspondent of ihe
Salem Gazette, speaking of the debate in the
House, has the following remarks relative 10
one of the members from this town -
"Mr. Burnside, Of Worcester, who had the
floor, delivered an excellent speech in favor
of the postpouement, and against the repeal Of
the law, passed AT The last session, aud the re-
vival OF the old law of 1884. He gave
learned and minute exposition of various his
: toric facts, which most clearly demonstrated
the fact that the restraint upon the taking of
excessive usuiy had always been in an in
verse proportion to the severity OF the laws
against il. Where the sevcTest penalties had
been inll cted, the violations Of the laws had
always been more frequent; and the rate of
interest had generally been lower where il
had been left, as it ought ever to he. to regu-
late ITSELF This position was defended by
Mr.. Burnside in a mastery manner, and the
facts which he produced 10 lorify it, seemed
20 mc at Least to be utterly unanswcrahc :; and
ii my mind had not already been made up in
favor Of the new law, this speech, together
with those which followed, as we'll on one side
as the other, would have convinced Inc of one
thing certainly, that the old law was most UNI
Just AMI inqlitous in lis effects. nu1 ought
never to be revived. Mr.. Burnside's manner
OF delivery is pleasing and forci5le without
being eloquent"

MISCELLANEOUS ITE.NS.

Fare IN Sdlem.-A large wooden building at
tached 10 the lead mandatory in South Sa-
lem, took fire, between one aad two O'Clock.
and was consumed. The roofof the principal
building, which is of brick, containing propei-
ty TO |; :ge amount, was several times on fire.
but by great exertion the building was saved.
The fire is supposed to have been communi
Gated by spark from the chimney. The dam
age is estimated at four or five thousand dol
lars. In The ensuing night, the fire again burst
out, but was eXtingushed without any alarm
beng made.
Death by Lightning. about o'clock on
Sunday morning last, house in Warren,
Penn. and occupied by Mr.. John Goe, was
struck by lightning, and young man named
John May berry, aged about 90, son of Mr..
Thomas hayherry, Chenango, Mercer COIN
ty, Pa. Was instantly killed. The deceased
sat leaning against the door casing, when the
vein which struck the front end OF the house
passed Down the casing until it came in con-
tact with his body, which it passed through
TO the floor. -Four other persons were in the
house at the time, who escaped without in
jury.
On Saturday evening the Sd inst. at about
O'Clock, the house occupied by Mr.. VIM.
MCoy, in North-Iiaven, was struck by light
ming, while MIR. NJ. his wife and child. and
two apprentices were sitting in the house.
1t ia somewhat Singular that the fluid should
run in seven different directions, and occasion
no essential injury to any one. 1t ran each
side Of Mr.. MS brother, within six inches of
his feet, stunning every person in the house.
The chimney and wall was considerably shat
tered and injured. The house caught fire in
partition, hut it was soon extnguished.
On the same evening the lightning struck
the spire of the stceple OF the Presbyterian
Westinghouse in Mount Carmel Society,
kIamdcu.
The Richmond Wing states that that city
has recently been visited by thunder storms Of
unusual violence. Several houses were
struck, but triAing injury was sustained. A
cradle in which an infant was sleeping was
rived by the lightning, but the child escaped
unhurt.

FOREIGN NCJIS.

We give, this week, some of the details,
from the European papers, ofthe recent occur
roaces in Greece, from all which there can be
40 doubt, that the Turks have been repulsed
IN their attacks on Missolorghi, although it is
evident, that their loss is greatly exaggerated.
Some accounts, apparently as authentic as
any which have been received, make no mem
tion Of the death Of Ibrahim Pacha, or the
capture Of Redschid Pacha, otherwise called
Mchemet Ali, and it is said, that, although
the Turkish camp had been burnt by the
Greeks, the siege of the town was continued.
In the mean time, the Greeks are organizing
their forces in other parts CT the country, and
ins.ructing their troops in the European tao
tics, by which they will be able more success
fully TO cope with their adversaries 1t is
said that Ibrahm has been obliged TO call the
garrison Of Trippolzza TO his assistance, in
consequence Of which that place has fallen
into the hands Of the Greeks. short time
will clear up the uncertainty which rests upon
these accounts.

CONGRESS-.

The National Journal of Tuesday contain. .
review of tho proceedings of Congress dur.
ing the last session, which occupies about a
column and half OF that paper. After
number OF Introductory remarks, the writer
proceeds thus: Bost. Go.
1t is well known TO all who are con-
versant with legislative history, that the
fret four weeks of the session are usual
ly occupied in the maturing, in Commit
tees, of measures which are TO be sub
sequpntly acted on in the two Houses
In this recipient stage of the session, the
Judicial Bill, the bill for the relief Of
the surviving officers of the revolution
AIRY army, the bill for the preservation
and civilization Of the Indian tribes, the
amendments proposed in the Constitu-
lion of the United States, the Bankrupt
Bill, and oIher bills of great general and
local interest, were digested and pre-
pared. The bills we have spec fed,
with the suhject Of the mission to Pena-
| ma. constituted the important business
of the session. Lei US see with what
efficiency legislative action has been
brought TO bear upon them. On The 18th
of January, the discussion on the Judicial
BIZ commenced, and on the Goth it pas
sed the House, occupying, with the time
consumed in discussing the amendment
Of the Senate, about fue weeks OF the al.
tention Of the House. This bill was
succeeded by the discussion of the Prop
ositions OF Mr.. M'Dulfie TO amend the
Constitution, which consumed the next
seren weeks Of the session. The discus
sion OF the amendment to the rppor, of
the Committee on foreign relations. re.
la'ive 20 the mission 10 Panama, foil ow-
ell il lis order, and 10 this debate four
weeks were devoted. When this ques-
ton was decided, the claims of the
revolutionary officers were brought be-
fore House irfitated by previous COL
lisions Of opinion, f;atigued with discus
sion, and indisPosed 10 act harmonionsIy
on any subject and a resolution having
passed, fixing on tho god of Nav for
the adjournment Of Congress, the House
had only too weeks left to act on all the
variety of, business which had been ex-
Guided by the all-monopoIzing meas
ures which we have specified.
1t thus appears that fOe weeks were
spent in discussing The Judicial Bill in the
House Of Representatives, which bill was
afterwards indefinitely postponed :--seven
weeks were devoted 10 the debate on
the Constitutional amendments, from
the further consideration Of which the
Select Committee 7cGs ultimately dis.
charged soithom coming to any result:
-four weeks we're occupied in dis
putation ou the restrictive amendment
of the resolutions Of the Committee on
Foreign Affairs, relative TO the mission to
Panama, which was inaIy rejected, and
the appropriation bill passed without
reference TO any resolution ;--tuvo weeks
were allowed TO the claims Of the revo-
lutionary officers, which were laid on The
table so that eighteen weeks out of the
tSventy;to four weeks comprising the session,
have been monopolized in the discussion
of questions which have produced no e {.
fioiept result; or, ia other words, 10 abor-
tive lsgislatiou."

and its being well prepared. 1t will
grow well on fields where rye was rais-
ed last year, or on land stocked down
last year with clover. About half a
bushel of seed to the acre will be sufIi-
cient.
II there is an aversion TO millet, or it
should be difficult to procure seed,
would recommend the sowing of Indian
corn. have known it give good
crop, when sown as late az the 4th July.
after crop of clover had been taken
from the land. The land was plough
ed, corn was sowed, broad cast, half a
bushel TO the acre, narrowed in, and
the roller passed over it. There were
about two tons Of fodder to the acre.
Grass seed should be sown, if you desire
to NOW il the next season. 1t will be
beneficial to spread some compost ma
nure, before plougning, or ashes before
narrowing in the seed. Fodder may
also be supplied by raising turnips.-
The ground may be prepared, and
ready for sowing, when the rains ia Ju-
| ly or August shall fall Good crops, in
a suitable season may be raised from
stubble land. from grass ground which
needs ploughing or from clover land,
ploughed Immediately after taking off
the crop. 1t will help the crop much,
to scatter ashes, compost, or other fine
manure, and harrow il in. Turnips are
healthy for stock, and will increase
much the quantity Of Fodder. When
convenient, ii would be best to try each
Of these crops. have no doubt of the
crops amply compromising the labor
and pains, and Of being a very great re-
lief to the necessities of next winter.
By little attention in season, we may
be supplied with fodder, and our stock
come out well next spring. We shall
moi he obliged 10 give away our cattle,
this fall, and buy at an enormous price
next spring. "A FARMER.
