The HOMICIDE AT WAsHINGToN.-W Wash
iagton, May 9.-The examination of Mr.. Her
bert, on the charge of shooting Thomas Keat-
ing, at Wizards Hotel was resumed this
evening. The court room was densely crowd
ed.
Arnold Harris, John E. Reynolds, Major
Graham, and VIM. A. Gardiner, were exam
med for the defense. Mr.. Gardiner is the
Californian who was in company with Mr..
Herbert when the difficulty occurred and with
whose pistol Herbert shot Heating. Mr. Her
bert and Gardiner lodged together, and the
latter, as Mr.. q. states, took the pistol from
the mantel piece the evening preceding. Mr..
Gardiner gave graphic description of the
fig in which he was prominent actor
Messrs. Bradley, Weller, Percy Walker, and
Philips, addressed the Court in favor of the
discharge Of the prisoner. District Attorney
Key replied on the part of the prosecution,
the question of bail entering largely into his
argument. After a session of five hours, the
prisoner was remanded to the custody of the
U. D. Marshal. the Court stating that they
would render their decision tomorrow.
WAsHINGToN, May l0.--Justices Smith and
Birch this morning delivered their opinions in
the case of Herbert, refusing bail, and com
hitting the culprit TO the custody of the Mar
shall, to be tried by the Criminal Court of the
District. Herbert's friends have applied for
writ Of ha6eas corpus.

DR. NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. RESULTS
Our readers will be glad to learn that any means
have at last been found to stay the progress of
that dread enemy, Consumption. The New York
Commercial Advertiser, of April 18th, remarks
that
In the January number of Hunters Medical
Specialist, 1t was shown, by comparison of the
City Inspectors reports for the last three months
of 1885, with the corresponding months of the
two preceding years, that diminution in the
mortality from consumption had taken place, of
very nearly twenty five per cent. In the April
number of the same publication, DR.. Robert Hun.
ter recurs to this int esting subject, and shows
from the statistics furnished by the CITY Inspec-
tors reports that the diminution in the number
OF deaths from consumption during the past
quarter exceeded thirty one per cent, and DR..
Hunter, the editor of the Specialist, observes if
our treatment had been unsuccessful it must
have increased the mortality. II successful, it
could not but diminish it in proportion to that
success. None who are at all acquainted with
the magnitude of our practice, will deny that it
has been, during the past two years. sufficient to
exert the most decided influence on the bills of
mortality, not only of this city, but also of the
cities OF Philadelphia, Baltimore, and Boston
That that influence has been exerted in the mark
ed decrease in the number of deaths is an infer.
ence from the facts, not only legitimate, but we
think, unavoidable; and we claim it not on any
personal grounds, but the natural result of
adopting more direct, simple, and common
sense treatment. More than year ago, we stat.
ed in one of our published letters, that at every
case of consumption in this city were placed un-
der Judicious treatment by inhalation, within two
years the mortality from this disease would be di-
minished one-half." This prediction is now com.
ing to pass.

FRIDAY, May 9.
SENATE.-The House bill. granting $780,
600 acres of land to Iowa for railroads, was
read and passed: Yeas 81, Nays 8.
Mr.. James, from the Committee on Patents,
reported bill amendatory of the patent laws
the object being to protect the public against
oppressive invalid patents. and the really mer-
itorious inventor from the piracies of dishon-
est infringers.
HoUsE.-The message of the Senate, ask
ing Tor third committee of conference rela-
tive to the disagreeing amendment to the
deficiency bill being under consideration, Mr.
Phelps said he rose to defend the people of
Missouri, whom Mr.. Giddings yesterday said
were traitors and deserved to be hanged.
Mr.. Glddings, interrupting, explained, say
ing his statement was, that the people of
Missouri, by collecting an armed body for the
purpose of usurping the government of Kan
zas, had committed treason, and under the
laws and constitution of the United States
they were guilty of the charge.
Mr. Phelps denied the charge, and said
that such an idea existed only in in the imag-
ination of its author. The Missourians who
went to Kanzas in November and December
last, went for the purpose of maintaining the
laws. The scenes of bloodshed were properly
to be attributed to the friends of Mr.. Gid
dings.
After debate, the proposition to appoint
third committee of conference on the defcien-
cy bill was adopted.
A long discussion ensued on the resolution
to allow the parties to the New Mexico con-
tested election case to be heard by counsel or
in person, and without deciding the matter
the House adjourned.

WASHINGTON, May 8.-Senator Sumner has
ate, ripping up the action heretofore taken in
regard to the notice given for the termination
of the Sound Dues Treaty with Denmark
1t will be remembered that the notice was
given by the President, with advice and con-
sent of the Senate only, and that Mr.. Sumner
claims, that to be efficient, it should be given,
as in the case of Oregon, by virtue of joint
resolution of the two Houses of Congress-
maintaining that as the Constitution makes a
ratified treaty part of the supreme law of
the land" it can only be abrogated, as law
can be repeatedly Congress.
The Senate Committee on Foreign Rela-
tions, in Report-which certainly is rather
involved than explicit and decisive sustain
ed its previous action and submitted resolu-
ton declaring that the notice already given is
sufficient, and that no further legislation is
necessary to give it efficiency This resolu-
ton is now up for consideration, and Mr..
Sumner has made a brief but very able argu-
mentin support Of the position he has assum-
ed In the debate we find ranged on his side,
Seward, Collamer, Stuart, benjamin, and
Others, on 10th sides the chamber; and it will
not be at all strange, if the committee are de-
as the administration will make it a party
question.
The democracy continue to be in great tear
in regard to their presidential nominee. The
present indications are, that Mr.. Buchanan is
to be crushed out, by the joint efforts of
Messrs. Pierce and Douglas, and that the
latter will then be nominated at Cincinnati,
if any northern man can be. Douglass friends
express great confidence, first in their power
to prevent Buchanan from getting two thirds
vote, and next, in their ability to force the
nomination of Douglas.
understand that the WIRE pulers, here,
have decided upon the admission Of the "soft''
delegates from New York, at the convention,
and that, when in, they are to vote for Doug
las. All the signs point to a tremendous effort
against Mr.. Buchanan, and all sorts of means
to defeat him will be availed Of Washington

FROM WAsHINGToN.-The administration
has no particular information to send in reply
to the House and Senate resolution, calling
for information in regard to Nicaraguan and
Panama affairs. An affidavit was fled in
reference to the ARRAY at Panama, OIL Friday,
by one of the spectators of the affray. 1t con-
ours in general with the intelligence already
received, and rather throws the blame of orig
mating the ARRAY on our side. The most Sc
rious allegation is, that persons believed to be
police, fired on the depot, where innocent
passengers had collected for security. A stern
investigation will be instituted, and perhaps
an officer of the State Department will be sent
to the spot. The dispatches of Col. Wheeler,
the affidavit of the captain of the Orizaba,
mentioned on Friday, and various loose state
ments, comprise all the papers concerning
Nicaragua, in possession of the admnistra
ton. They throw no more light on the sub
ject than is already known to the public.
Mr.. Champion gave grand reconciliation
dinner to the Minister of Russia, France, and
others, on Wednesday evening. Cor. N. Y.

A confidential meeting of the Republicans,

at Wizards Hotel. 1t is understood to have
reference to the nomination of Col. Fremont
for the Presidency.-Cor. Of N. Y. Herald.
