WASHINGTON. April l

washington, April IT..
The meeting of the conference committee on
yesterday resulted only in obtaining from the
Senate side the promise of offering plan Of
compromise.
Mr.. English on the House side said they would
await propositions from the Senate, but unless
somethsng was offered, on Monday they would
report their inability to agree. In this contin-
gency it is the intention Of the Senate to ask
another committee.
Gen. Gushing supersedes Judge Hughes as
counsel for Judge Nathans in the impeachment
case.
Senator Bggs is to be Immediately made
District Judge Of N. c., and will be succeeded
in the Senate by Mr.. Clingman, by the Cover
nor's appointment.

The probable result of the conference will be
a disagreement. A new committee will then be
nshel for, and if granted, the Administration
batteries will be unmasked and the real nature
of the movement Of Messrs. English and Hall
disclosed.
Some sort of compromise will be attempted,
snc as the giving certificates to the Free-State
officers and the submission to popular vote of
Lecompton as soon the bill is passed.
Meantime the Anti Lecompton men, who ad-

A SINGULAR 4ALADY-A disease is prevalent
among the horse kind in this section this spring,
wh;, resembles nothing we ever before heard
OF or saw laid down in the farrier book. 1t is
called by our citizens the "stiffs." The manner
in hich it affects the animal is as follows:
the bones of the animals legs appear to be-
come diseased and rotten, so that they break
upon the slightest occasion. And what is more
ngular, while this process is going on, no
symptoms Of it can be discovered in the ANNA,
which continues in apparent good health and
spirits and often the first indication which the
owner has of any such disease is the breaking OF
one or more Of his horses legs.
Can any one explain the cause Of this singu-
lar malady.- Abba Republican.
lIoRRIBLE-We learn. says the Central Gala
Enquirer, LIST inst, that on Saturday last, man
by the name of Asa Edwards, and his daughter
were killed in this county, near the line OF Shell
by. The circumstances, as far as we can learn,
arc as follows: 1t seems that the Sheriff Of
Shelby county had warrant for Edwards, and
endeavored to execute it, but he, (Edwards) re-
sisted, and the Sheriff summoned posse to
as<st him. and went to the house OF Edwards
and demanded his surrender, which he inGig-
nantlv refused, wbereupon the Sheriff ordered
his posse or some one Of them, to shoot him,
aud man by the name of PAGER fred upon him
with rife, the ball taking effect first in the
hexor muscle Of his daughters arm-who was
cu;reating her father to surrender-thence
tn, ough the body Of Edwards, causing almost
instant death Of the father and daughter.

CASTE IMPERILLED.-A handsome and
we'll dressed young lady and an aristocratic-
looking gentleman rode through Washing
ton street, Boston, on Monday, in a sugar
box on runners, labelled "hard times" and
drawn by sorry, sorrel nag. The Post
says many pedestrians were shocked at the
spectacle. 1t must have been exceedingly
shocking to Boston propriety to see such
a piece of broad fun enacted by representa-
tives of the first circles. A council of old
women should be called on Beacon hill at
once, to see to it that the first society suf-
fers no detriment from this indiscretion.-

EcoNoMY.-We have heard of man who,
when he travelled in his private carriage,
carried his own oats with him, to feed his
horse at the hotels, and also hen to eat up
the scattering oats, so as to save them, and
lay an egg for his dinner; but even he was
an incarnation of iberality compared with a
miser who died some years ago in the East.
From fear of coming to want he hung him
self, but was cut down, and on seeing the
rope lying on the floor, cut in two, exclaim-
ed: "Why spoil new rope by cutting it?
Could you not unite it?'' The force of
''elose shaving" could no further 60.

From the Cincinnati Commercial.
Six Little Feet on the Fender.

In my heart there Eyeth picture,
OF kitchen rude and old,
Where the freight tripped DER the rafters,
And redeemed the roofs brown mould
Gliding the steam from the kettle,
That hummed on the foot-worn hearth,
Throughout all the hvelong evening,
Its measure Of drowsy mirth.
Because of the three slight shadows
That frescoed that rude, old room,
Because of the voices that echoed,
Up mid the rafters gloom,
Because of the feet on the fender
Six restless, little feet,
The thoughts of that dear old kitchen,
Are to me so fresh and sweet.
When the first dash on the window,
Told of the coming rain,
oil where are the fair young faces,
That crowded against the pane?
While bits Of freight stealing,
Their dimpled cheeks between,
Went struggling out in the darkness,
In shreds of silver sheen.
Two of the feet grew weary,
One dresry, dismal day,
And we tied them with snow-white ribbons,
Leaving him there by the way;
There was fresh clay on the fender,
That weary, wintry night,
For the four little feet had tracked it
From his grove on the brown hills height
OF why on this darksome evening,
This evening of rain and sleet,
Rest my feet all alone on the hearthstone7
OF where are those other feet?
Are they treading the pathway of virtue,
That viii bring Us together above ?
Or have they made steps that would dampen
A sisters tireless love?

Anecdote of DR.. Young.

The following whimsical anecdote is re-
lated of the celebrated DR.. Young, aathor
of Night Thoughts:
''This eminent writer and amiable man
was remarkable for the urbanity of his man
ner and the eheerfulness of his temper,
prior TO most disastrous family contin-
gency, which threw shade on all the sub
sequent part of his life. He was once on
party of pleasure with few ladies, going
up the water to Vauxhall, and he amused
them with a tune on the German flute.
behind him were several officers also in
boat rowing to the same place, and soon
came along side the boat where the doctor
and the ladies were.
''The doctor, who was not very conceit-
ed of his playing, put up his flute on their
approach. One of them instantly asked,
why he ceased playing. or put the flute up
in his pocket?' For the same reason (said
he) that took it out, to please myself
The son of Mars very peremptorily rejoin-
ed, that if he did not Immediately take
out his flute and continue his music, he
would instantly throw him into the Thames.
The doctor, in order to allay the fears of the
ladies, pocketed the insult with the best
grace he could, and continued his tune all
the way up the river.
During the evening, however, he OBJ
served the officer who acted thus cayalierly,
by himself in one of the walks. and max
ing up to him, said with great GOODNESS, 1T
was sir, to avoid interrupting the harmo-
ny either of my company or yours that !
complied with your arrogant demand; but
that you may be satisfied courage may be
found under black as well as red coat,
expect you will meet me tomorrow morn
ing at certain place, without any second
the quarrel being entirely entre nous
1.-The doctor further covenanted In a very
peremptory manner, that the business
should altogether be settled with swords
To all these conditions the officer implicitly
consented The duelists met next morn
ing at the hour and place appointed; but
the moment the officer took his ground,
the doctor presented pistol at his head;
what, fsays the officer do you intend to
assassinats me?' No. (said the doctor
and dance minuet. otherwise yen are dead
man. Some short alteration ensusd, bui
the doctor appeared so furious and deter
mined. the officer could not help comply
ing. Now, SIR 1said the doctor) you
forced me to play yesterday against my VIII
and have obliged you to dance to-day
against yours; we are again on equal foot
ing, and whatever other satisfaction you de.
naand, am ready
1.-The officer forthwith embraced the doe.
tor, acknowledged his impertinence, and
begged that for the future they might live
