The Kentucky Legislature has re7elect-
ed Garrett Davis to the u S. Senate.
Though he had retired from the contest,
to get out of the dead lock which other
contestants have fastened on the Legisla-
ture, they fell back on Davis and elected
him. So the Senate is still to be afflicted
with his pointless garrulity, and copf er-
head secession sympathy.

The Presidents Message.


The annual message from the Pres.
idcut to Congress is before us. "My
policy" is again reiterated, in the
reconstruction Of the Union. That
il "does not exist as our fathers in.
tended II, is regretted as n peculiarly
melancholy fact. The dangerous pol.
icy Of placing tho ballot 10 tho hands
Of the freedmen Of the south, Is ar
gucd at length, as Gan abandonment
of duty, which We owe alike to the
memory Of our fathers aud the rights
of our children" Tho revenue laws
ofthc country, he says are productive
Of dishonesty, and if not revised
will soon bring US Into total ruin end
disgrace. Argues a resumption Of
specie payment Of the earliest practical
period, and that when such period
shall have arrived no bank shall bo
allowed 10 circulate bills Of lower
than twenty dollars,
that the laboring classes may have the
benefit Of the specie circulating cur
rency. lIo again protests against the
tenure ofollice provision, claiming that
i prevents tho removal Of dishonest
iul incompetent officials. The mes.
sage is lengthy, which will not permit

Remarkable Railroad Accident.
A Mcnagerie Oyersct Wild Beasts at
Large.

A singular accident happened, on
the 25th ultim), at daybrako, on the
Mobile & Great Western Railroad,
some thirty-six mile above Tcusas
station, between Mobile aud Meridian.
A portion Of the train, containing a
meuagerie, was thrown off the track,
and two truck cars, containing four
cages, in which were the royal Bengal
tigress, the hyena, two bears, and the
tapir, we're thrown of, the cages
smashed, and the animals released
Two other box cars, containing TWEEN
ty.six horses aud ponies, shared the
misfortune, the horses being piled to-
gether aud upon each other in utter
confusion. Only one was killed,
however, and several others suffered
contusions.
The Mobile Register states that the
animals released did no damage to
each other, with the exception that
one of the bears killed fawn. The
tgross and one Of the bears at frst
manifested a hostile disposition to.
wards each other, the boar assumed
ar upright position aud stood upon
his guard in regular fstiana style,
and when the striped beast came
smelling about him n cuff or two was
exchanged, which seemed to satisfy
both parties The bear amused him.

no disposition, however, to go very

the couplings Of the rear ears that
remained on the track prevented the
others from rolling entirely to the
bottom.

A New Financial Scheme.

Senator sherman has prepared a
financial bill, which no will offer this
week. Thi, is intended to cover the
whole ground of bonds and currency.
II provides for six por oent. bond,
to run thirty years, principal and in
tcrest payable in coin, a; the pleasure
of the Government, after ten years.
OF the interest, fivc per cent. is to be
paid to tho holder, and ono per cont.
retained in lieu Of National taxes.
Tho half OF the ono per cout. is to be
paid to the State in proportion TO
population, and tho othor half to
create a sinking fund for the pay mont
Of tho principal Of tho loan. The
holders Of legal.tendcr notes arc to
havo tho right TO convert them int
these bonds, aud afterward convert
tho bonds iuto lcgal.lcndor notes, a'
currency may be needed. Holders oI
fivo.twcntics after tho expiration oil
the frst fivo years, are to be required
to exchange for the new bonds under
tho penalty of having interest stcpp
ed. This measure, il is believed, will
deprive tho Secretary Of the Treas
ury Of worry nearly all discrctiouor!
power, and, with some amendment
putting limit to tho balances carried
in tho Treasury, IL is believed II will
give general satisfaction to tho mem
bers Of both Houses. Tho provision
permitting the conversion Of the
bonds into groonbacks will satisfy tn,
expansiouists, who are largely in the
majority in the House. Buffers plat
has but few friends in the Senate.
