In Senate yesterday the House Reconstruc-
ton amendment was referred to the judiciary
Committee. There was an interesting discus
sion upon the protection of American
citizens abroad the tone of the speak
eIs being decidedly in favor of the
prompt and vigorous assertion of our national
rights. The House Deficiency appropriation
bill elected a sharp debate, and, after several
uuimportant amendments, was adopted. Then
followed discussion upon the currency oues-
ton, a few bills of no public importance were
introduced, and the Senate adjourned.
In the House, Charles p Clever Dem.), who
contested the seat of J. Francesca Chaves Rep)
as Delegate from New Mexico, was admit
ted, on a favorable report from the
Committee on Elections. A Pennsylva-
MIA Democrat undertook to crystalline
the Presidents l9udation of Cen Hancock
into a resolution of thanks, but objection was
made, and the sugar-plum was laid away for
the present. The bill concerning deserters
was discussed for q while, and then sent
back to the Committee. The President
was called upon to tell all about
the acquisition of Russian America; bill to
erty was referred; q bill TO make pensions

The Italian Government is becoming alarmed
at the state of feeling in the late Kingdom of
the Two Sicilies. The Government of Victor
Emmanuel never has had many warm parti-
sans in that part of Italy. The town popula-
ton, to a large extent, are ardent Republicans,
while the country people the clergy, and the
nobility continue to be in favor of the Bour-
bon dynasty. The cowardce of the Govern
ment in the late Roman revolution has thinned
still more the ranks of its party, and general
Instruction has for some time been antici-
pated. A Cable dispatch in this mornings is
sue states that tho Government has found it
necessary TO call in additional military reserves.

1t is in some degree cOnsoatory to know
that the fearful railway disaster beyond Buff
falo was no more destructive Of human life
than represented in our first dispatches. There
are only twenty-three victims so burned and
manglcd as to be beyond all recogni-
ton, while eighteen of the dead have
been recognized. The cause of the catas-
trophe is said to have been broken
wheel, and no fault is attached to the
officers of the road. 1t is to be hoped that
they are blameless; it may be that they are !;
but every such case should have thorough ex-
animation, not only to satisfy the afflicted, but
to place the innocent beyond the reach of
susDicOD.

The Hon. Richard Busted of the United
States District Court for the Southern District
of Alabama, in his last charge to the Grand
Jury, has given the following judicial con-
structiOn to the Book of Genesis as 1t stands
affected by the Civil Rights bill. 1t will be
interesting to all who have had any doubt OF
the plenary inspiration or perfect constitution
atty of either of those documents. The
learned Judge states the point as follows:
at was the intention Of Congress that this Civil Rights
bill should act in teTOrem particular class in favor
OF a particular class and the flaming sword, which
turned every way keep the way Of the tree OF e was
placed the east OF the Garden of Eden cheruDims so
this law enacted and promulgated TO Keep the way
of the tree OF human liberty unobstructed Ia our own
land and inspire other lands by example, until all
nations and peoples and hndreds, and tongues, hold
jubilee beneath its protecting shade"
Compared with this charge what was the
"charge of the Light Brigade at Balaklava,"
or the charge at a Virginia hotel in the days of
Confederate curency7 Like the celarman in
Dickens's "No Thoroughfare," when comment
ing on the singing of Marguerite, we feel

are still visible. The great internal
convulsiOn of which these phenomena
were tho preliminary signs eliminated
in the destruction of the City of Caracas IN
Venezuela on the Goth of March, 1916. In

in this State, there are some very remarkable
ones The earthquake of Wednesday last,
which appears to have been felt from Western

travelling from West to East. Whether this
account of it is correct or not, we have little
opportunity of Judging. no scientific record of
the movement having thus far been made pub
