From Washington.

WASHINGTON, May 29.-The act of recom-
hitting the Pacific Railroad Bill, together
with the various amendments, to the Select
Committee of the House, to-day, is regarded
as equivalent to. its postponement for the
session. The reasons for thus disposing of il
include the contrarity of opinions as to the
proper location of the road and the insult
ficiency of the condition TO secure the ex-
ecution of the work by those on whom the
franchise were to be conferred.
The House Committee on Foreign Affairs,
to-day unanimously agreed TO report the
Senate bill, appropriating $4,000 to Town
send Harris, for negotiating the treaty with
Siam, which is intended as an acknowledge
ment of his valuable services TO the commerce
of the East ,a.l .r 7f.h rsL'u .I.E U'r.
The present of the United States Agricul-
tural Society to the Japanese consists Of one
hundred varieties of the principal cereals and

medal of the Society with their names in
scribed in their own characters.
The Japanese, for several days past, have
been ona tour of inspection throughout the
city. They were particularly interested in
a large jewelry establishment, witnessing the
manufacture of the finer qualities Of gold and

Mr.. Hatch's report on the Canadian Re.
ciprocity Treaty is not only strongly opposed
TO the main articles of agreement in that in
strument, but the administrations are also re
ported against it. and the treaty will also b,
opposed upon the floor OF the House. Tn,
Secretary of State declines to comply with
the call of the House for copy of Hatch'i
report, on the ground that it would be incom,
patible with the public interests. ,.

The ANTlPATHY OF SIMILAR NATURES
Wherever two natures, says Oliver Wendell
Holmes, have great deal in common, the
conditions of first-rate quarrel are fur
nished ready made. Relations are very apt
to hate each other just because they are too
much alike. II is SO frightful to be in an at
mosphere of family idiosyncracies; to see all
the hereditary uncomeliness or infrmity Of
body, all the defects of speech, all the fail
ings of temper, intensified by concentration,
so that every fault of our own finds itself
multiplied by reflections, like our images in
Q saloon lined with mirrorsl Nature knows
what she is about. The centrifugal princi-
pie which grows out of the antipathy Of like
70 like is only the repetition in character of
the arrangement we see expressed materially
in certain seed-capsules, which burst and
throw the seed to all points of the COM
pass. A house is a large pod with human
germ or two in each of its cells or chambers
Il opens by dehiseenee of the front door, by
and-by, and projects one of its germs to
Kansas, another TO San Francisco, another TO
Chicago, and so on;r and this that Smith may
not be Smithed to death and Brown be
Drowned into mad-house, but mix in with
the world again and struggle backto average
humanity. s.i
