Pfoceedings Of To-Day.

In the Senate, to day, Mr.. Hamlin, rising
to personal explanation, asked to be di.
charged from further service on the Foreign
Affairs Committee on the ground that he found
it impossible for him longer to act with the
Democratic party in politics; the platform
adopted in the Cincinnati Convention being
one ne could not sustain, and being one that
compelled him to oppose the election of that
Convention nominees. Mr.. Hamlio was duly
excused by vote of the Senate.
AT the arrival Of the hour for taking up the
special order-the bill from the Territories

The Union is, to-day, devoted to history
of the political movements of Col. Benton
and his followers in Missouri, since the annex.
alton of Texas, designed to prove that he and
they are at this time merely engaged in their
old work Of laboring to defeat the Democratic
party while pretending to be engaged in sus.
tanning it.

took occasion to rap the Mtsiligeneer's editor

the st. Louis Democrats editor speaking IT.
reyerentially Of the platform recently adopted
at Cincinnati. The Htelligencer declares in
this conn; ciiOn, that parry platforms have

Glazing that no one respects the Cincinnati

dEORGET0WN, June IL, 1890.
Yesterday, the household effects of Mr.
Champion, late British Minister, was sold at
auction by Barnard & Buckley. The company
was very large, and the competition among
bidders very great. Nearly every article sold
brought excellent prices; some, according to
our estimate of them, went beyond the bounds
of all reason, from fifty to one hundred per
cent. above their intrinsic value. Many of
the purchasers were from your city, the prn.
cipal of which was Mr. Sartiges, the French
Minister, who is going to occupy the same
premises
The following gentlemen have been elected
(by the Board of Directors) officers of the
year: David English, President and Treas
ureI; Henry King, Secretary. and Jonathan
D Cathell, Superintendent.
1t seems to be foregone conclusion that
every gentleman in our city has determined
to patronize the ladies fair now being held at
Forrest Hall. We are not surprised at this
Such profusion of delicacies and useful ar
ticles Is rarely, If ever, seen at a fair and
such bevy Of agreeable ladies, and such
showers of sweet smiles, pleasant talk, and
winning manners, are sufficient to charm the
senses and melt into tenderness and love the
adamantine heart Of even q crusty old bache-
lor, and cause him at once to resolve to rush
to the far, II not to arms. Sweet music from
the piano lends charm to the festivities every
evening.
Trade upon our canal, except in coal from
Cumberland, has been less active than it was
during the several preceding weeks. This is
doubtless owing to the pressing engagements
of the farmers, and will be likely to continue
until after harvest.

TURKISH RELIGIOUS ToLERArIoN The
Turkish Government has just given distin-
guished proof of its federation Of other forms
of worship besides the Ottoman. Three Cath
Ole monks Of Bosnia lately murdered Turk,
and, the more effectually to conceal their
crime, burned the body in the kitchen of the
convent They were all three tried, found
guilty, and sentenced to death; but the
Government has ordered the execution to be
suspended until the Pope, informed of the
circumstances, shsll have had time to deprive
the criminals of their office, so that the pun
ishment shall be inflicted on the man, and
not on the priest. The Armsnians and Greeks
it appears, have protested against the late
liberation and reform decree of the Sultan
The Greek petition is directed especially
against the articles relating to the clergy.

The Democratic ratification meeting at New

Addresses were delivered from three stands
and much enthusiasm was manifested.
The meeting of the Democracy of Baltimore
for the purpose of ratifying the nomination oi
the Hon. James Buchanan for President and
the Hon. John G. Breckenridge for Vice-Presi'
dent, and also for the purpose of endorsing
the party platform as presented by the Cincin.

the largest of the kind ever held in that city,

The New Hampshire Republican Conven-
ton, which met at Concord yesterday, elected
six delegates ut large, and one from each Con-

Kent, of Maine, Gen. Nye, John P. Hale and

It is estimated that 20, 900 persons were pre-

Vaux presided, and opened the meeting with
few appropriate remarks. He concluded by
introducing General Cass, who was warmly
received, and addressed the meeting at con-
siderable length. He enlarged upon the i'm
mense Importance of the coming contest which
he thought was fraught with more serious
consequences to the destiny Of our country
than any event since the Declaration of Inde-
pendeDce was cOnsummated on the spot where
he stood. He spoke in favor of squatter SOW
ereignty, eulcgised the present administra-
ton, and heartily endorsed the action of the
Cincinnati Convention. Judge Douglas and
the Hon Howell Cobb followed in a similar
strain, commencing the candidates nominated
by the Convention, and the platform adopted,
to the Democracy. At the second stand
speeches were delivered by William Meal
lister, William B. Rankin, Col. E w. Power,
and others. A series of resolutions were then
adopted ratifying the nominations, and ex-
pressing hearty approval of the platform.

WAC OWNS 'EM.-We notice large number
of boys wandering about the city, who, as we
suppose, must be lost. They are for the most
part very we'll dressed, wearing long coats,
tight Pantaloons, shiny hats and boots, and
generally carry small canes in their kid
gloved hands. From the manner in which
they stare at the ladies that pass them, we
infer they are trying to find their mothers.
Why don't our charitable citizens get up an
asylum for these poor children? 1t Is a
shame to allow them to be wandering about
the city by themselves in this manner. They
are much more fit to be in the nursery. The
kind hearted keepers Of taveIns and billiard
saloons allow them a refuge in their estab-
lishments, and most charitably supply them
with segars and adulterated liquors At all
hours of the day and night these unto, Inmates
crowd beneath their hospitable roofs Parents
in search Of their sors will hear of them by
paying these places visit.-Phikadelphia

Philadelphia is not alone in her show Of
"lost boys" Washington city can exhibit q
fair display of these uDfortunates. They can
be seen any windy day, congregated on the
steps Of tho different hotels, anxiously sur.
veying each passing female, no doubt in

II A curious trial took Mace recentIv q

I A curious trial took place recently al
Rhenish tribunal, Germany. A man pos.
sessed some nut trees, of which the branches
hung over the ground of neighbor, who
picked up the ripe nuts that fell from the
tree, and also broke some branches. For tn.
the latter was prose ,uted for theft and tres
pass, but acquitted, on the ground that be
was entitled to profit by the fruit growing
over his own property. Appeal was made
from this decision, and the judgment reversed
by the superior tribunal, because the princi-
ples of civil law ordain that all fruit and
branches belong to the stem, and the stem tc
him upon whose ground it is planted, and tina,
the right of property of the latter does not
cease with the extension over neiebbors
ground, no matter how far this extension
The accused was consequently condemned or

CONGRESSIONAL PROCEEDINGS.

In the Senate, yesterday, after We went to
press, the question of taking up the resolution
of Mr. Crittenden, requesting the President to
order General Scott to the command of the
troops Of the United States in Kansas, was
further debated by Messrs. Adams, Mallory,
Mason and Reid, all of whom opposed the aid
resolution as involving, if adopted, direct
and unauthorized Interference on the part of
tie Senate with the duties and sole functions
of the Executive of the United States: and
by Messrs- CLAYTON, Crittenden, and Seward
IN its favor. Without taking the question the
Senate then adjourned.
In the House, there being no quorum pre-
sent, they adjourned.
