SPECIAL DISPATCHES TO IHE n. l. TfibVrb'
From a Special Correspondent
WASHINGTON, Friday, April To- loo5
The Committee of Conference met this morning,
but in consequence Of the absence OF Mr. Hunter
and the sickness of Mr.. Stephens, nothing was done
or attempted.
Mr. English has taken his stand upon the first
part of the Crittenden amendment, which provides
for submitting Lecompton This the Adlninistrs-
ton side cannot accept.
The name Of Mr.. Klgore Of Indiana does not ap
pesr among the Nays in THE TRIBUNE on the Con-
ference vote on Wednesday. He is too sterling
Representative to be so sighted.
The Committee of Conference will meet at III
tomorrow 70 hear propositions and compare opn-
IONS If Mr. English adheres TO bis present pur-
pose of requiring submission of LecomPton then
no compromise can be effected, notwithstanding
Mr.. Hunters strong inclination to yield subordinate
points. The extreme South in the House will not
sustain any such concession, and the majority in
the Senate is clearly committed adversely.
The Administration is less satisfied with indicA'
tions TO- day and is by no means sanguine II even
hopeful Of final success. Mr. Halls vote scalmed
openly but no confidence is professed as to the &C.
cession of Others. The Anti-LecomptOn side is
much cheered by all the signs of the time, and
have assurances warranting the belief that If this
Conference fails on an agreement there will BE-
no second attempt no matter how urged. Some
regret having yielded it now, on account Of the
pfeudicial inferences toward them that are drawn.

morrow. /, will meet at IL o'clock, in the Wee.
Presidents room in the Capitol and may adjourn
| 10 meet Immediately at Mr.. stepheRs's house.
There seems to be no prospect Of any agreement
Mr. English said to-day after conference with
Mr. Howard. than whom there is no firmer or more
| thorough going Anti Lecompton man in the House
| that Howard and he agreed on all points. II this
he so snd English acts in good faith, all will be well
| The Administration can carry Lecompton only
by the ba.est treschery and doube-dealing on the
mart of Mr. English and his associates. Such base
ness is not to be imputed until it is clearly shown.
| Mr.. Dimmck is very i'll, aud il is feared viii not

GREAT DISCO VERY or TIE AGEi
IMPORTANT TO
TOBACCO CHEvyERS.
DR.. GUSTAV LINNARD'S
TASTE RESTORATIVE TROCHES,
THE GREAT SUBSTITUTE FOR TOBACCO.


1T is we'll known and incontrovertible fact
Il that the use Of Tobacco is the promoting
cause Of many Of the most severe
MENTAL AND PHYSICAL DISORDERS
to which the race Of man is subject, as careful
analysis ard long and painful experience have
clearly proven that it contains certain narcotic
and poisonous properties most dangerous in
their effects, which by entering into the blood
derange the functions and operations of the
Heart, causing many to suppose that organ to
be seriously diseased.
TOBACCO affects also the entire nervous
system, manifcsting itsele-as all who have ever
used the noxious weed will bear testimony--in
Lassitude, Nervous Irritability, Water Brash,
Dyspepsia, and many other similar disorders.
THE TASTE RESTORATIVE TROCHES
Are designed to counterfeit these baneful influ-
ences and have proved completely successful
in a multitude Of cases, and wherever used.--
Being harmless in themselves they exert BEN
eficial effect upon the entire system, restoring
the Taste which has become Initiated or de-
stroyed by great indulgence, completely re-
moving the irritation and accompanying tick
| ling sensation Of the Throat-which are always
consequent upon abstaining from the use OF to-
bacco, and by giving a healthy tone to the
Stomach, invigorate the whole system.
Persons who are irretrieyably undermining
their constitutions and shortening their lives,
should use these Trochesand throw off the injuri-
Gus and unpleasant habit Of Tobacco Chewing.
These Troches, or Lozenges, are put up in a
convenient andportable form, at the low price OF
80 cts. box. A liberal discount to the Trade.
Prepared solely by the Undersigned, TO whom
! all orders should be addressed.

IL stand the present season, common
cling on the LIST of April and ending on
the last day of June, at the following
stands:
Mondays and Tuesdays, at the Sub
scriber's Stable, near Great Falls; We'd

she is known to be in foal, forfeits the
insurance money. Every care taken,
but no responsibility for accidents.

.iful bright bay, full 16 hands high, well
proportionod, and horse of fine action.
The subscribe: deems further descrip-

great desideratum in horse is bone and mus

any other horse; and hence his powers Of en-
durance, action and spirit are unequalled.

Rs- Mr. Russell, the correspondent
in India of the London Times, thus
gives the finishing stroke to the Jessie
Brown romance:
" regret to be obliged to destroy
the foundation of such pretty poetry and
pretty pictures as the story Of Jessie,
the Highland lassle, and tho bagpipes
Of the Highlanders has afforded at home;
but on inquiry find there were no bag
pipes played within many miles Of
Lucknow, and that the voices of Slogan
and Pibroch were silent; not warlike
squeak announced that the "Campbolls
were coming" but, more or less than
all, there was no lassie at all in the gar
rison who by any possibility could have
been the heroine or l0riala donna Of the
drama, aud every one knew long before
the loudost skirl Of the bagpipes in
Scotland could have. proclaimed it, that
Havclock was coming to tho assistance
Of the garrison. The Alulnbaugh is at
least seven miles from the residency"
