CELEBRATION AT JAMESTOWN.
TO the Editors of the Norfolk Beacon.

The proposal for celebration at jamestown
on the oath inst. though not agitated till about
1st May, has been so cordially received by the
neighboring population, that no doubt is enter
tanned Gifts being carried into effect Among
the movements of the day, it is contemplated to
form, in honor of the Princess PocAHoNTAs, who
was SO great friend to the early Coonists,
procession Of 227 young ladies, drawn from the
neighboring counties and towns, that may unite
in the celebration. This interesting procession,
for which it is expected considerable numbers
of the youthful beauty and fashion of Virginia
will prepare, will be followed or attended, in the
order which may be determined upon, oy
guard of honour, more or less numerous. COM
posed chiefly of Officers and other members OF
the Volunteer and Militia Corps OF such towns
and counties as may be disposed to participate
in the Festival.
Time not admitting Of more particular no.
tce it is hereby requested that the various corps
mentioned above, and other chivalrous spirits
that may be DESTROYS to honour the memory Of
PocAHoNTAS Will depute one or more members
of their respective associations, to attend the
previous Barbecue and Ball, at jamestown, on
Friday 23d INST. To these Deputations, in con-
cert with the Orators and others who may take
an active part on the occasion, will be conhded
the care of arranging and regulating the order
of the procession, and other movements OF the
general celebration on Saturday, oath inst.
An invitation, of which the following is CO.
py has been forwarded to several Of the most
distinguished Orators of our country:
WILLIAMSBURG, May, 1884.
"SIR-It has been determined to revive the
anniversary celebrations of the first landing of
our English Ancestors at jamestown. 1t it be-
lieved that such celebrations may, under judi
cous management, be rendered subservent to
interesting moral, religious and patriotic pur-
poses. Atthe present moment particularly, from
the unanimity of sentiment and feeling prevail
ing in Eastern Virginia, we are convinced that
very favorable impulse may be G wen to the
public mind by an address delivered on the oath
May inst. by one or more individuals, in whose
patriotism and judgment the people repose con-
fidence.
"Under this impression, we the subscribers,
citizens of Williamsburg, in behalf of great
majority Of our fellow-citizens, cordially unite
in requesting you to pronounce at jamestown,
on Saturday "a May, an address to the people,
promotve Of the objects to which we have al
luded."

ADJOURNMENT OF CONGRESS

Mr.. Boon's proposition for the adiournmor,
OF Congress was again taken up in the House
of Representatives on Thursday, and gave rise
to long debate.
The question upon the motion of Mr. Cam
breleng, to postpone the further consideration
of the subject to the 29th day of May being At
length taken by yeas and nays, it was decided
as follows: Yeas l16, Nays 95.
So the motion to postpone was agreed TO-
The National Intelligencer, on this subject
says:
/" There was debate, yesterday in the House
OF Representatives, on proposition for fyinO
term to the present Session of Congress, which
disclosed enough to satisfy us that Congress will
not Cannot, indeed,) djourn before july. ifit
gets away from here even within that month
If we look for a moment at the MANY subjects
which must be acted upon-the appropriations
of almost every sort; the care and custody Of
the public funds; contested elections in each
House, &c. &c, one must be satisfied that Con
gress has good two months work yet in hand.
"T The result of yesterdays debate was the
postponement of the whole subject for two en-
tire weeks. We doubt very much whether at
the expiration of that time, members will be
prepared to fix upon day for adjournment
There is, under recent practice in the Govern.
ment one reason against tying up the two
Houses by resolution for adjournment withOm
day, in addition to the usual and obvious OBJ
jections TO pledge Of that sort Time must
henceforth be given to the President of the
United States, in case he shall not approve Of
any bill which the two Houses may deem tim
portant to pass, to return it with his objections
that Congress may have an opportunity to eX
ercise Unconstitutional right of passing upon
the bill again; or to retain it, without either sign
ing or refusing to sign it, for ten days. wheni
President. The case of the Land Bill, at the
last Session, neither signed nor returned by the
President, and thus nullifed, is one which de-
mands this precaution for the future, in regard
to all bills of sufficient consequence TO justify
the remaining in session for ten days on Their
account"

SIGNS OF THE TINES.

The charter election of the City of Npu
Brunswick New Jersey) took place on Mon
day last. This place has been one of the styonr
holds OF Jacksonism in New Jersey and tbo
Jackson men were confident of success on -,
present occasion. Indeed, before the Viii,
were thoroughly rallied, the Jackson men CO
rled the Inspectors of the Election, which 6.o,,
the gross partially exhibited, gave them d.
cided advantage But when the real trial came
the Whigs carried erery officer in the cftv.
This is good news from New jersey and -.
have farther good news from New York.
The charter election of the enterprisino and
enlightened City of Troy, was held on Tuesdov
last. The Wing majority is SIX HUNDRED AM
THIRTY FIVE making clear gain of fre huadrsd
and tjty since the election in 1882.
These are signs of the times not to be mic.
taken, and We offer them as cheering ndica
tons of political regeneration ofthe country
AT any rate, they afford evidence Of a eras,
change of public sentiment, and give a we'll
grounded hope of the success of the Whc

In the Senate, on Thursday, Mr. Naudaln
presented the proceedings of public meeting
recently held at Wilmington, in the State ofDe
laware, expressing their disapprobation of the
Protest sent to the Senate by the President Of
the United States on the 18th of April last;
which were read
Mr.. Naudain then moved that the proceed
ings be printed for the use of the Senate.
The motion to print the resolutions led to
some discussion. 1t was opposed by Mr.. For.
syth, on the ground that it was imposing an IN.
necessary expense on the contingent fund o.
the Senate that it had reference to subject
which was not now before the Senate but when
had become a portion of history; and that
would be useless, inasmuch as the members
Of the Senate already knew the nature o.
the proceedings. Mr.. Kane moved to amend
the motion to print, by adding TO it piovlslGD
that the protest Of the President should be aE
pended to the proceedings, and printed VI"
them. This was opposed by Mr.. Clay; ".
Clayton, Mr.. Forsyth, Mr. Preston, ana ",
PoindeXter. The objection OF Mr.. ForsyIh S va,
that it would show no respect to the PieSIu 60
TO put his protest on The printed file oil uIe a.

the Senate had refused to direct; that lno Fby
