CHICAGO, March 25.-To-day the Lake
Tunnel was inaugurated, and the cor
ner-stone of the new water-tower was
laid with imposing ceremonies. The
procession was a very fine one, mainly
composed of Masonic bodies, and occu-
pied about half an hour passing a given
point. The streets along which IL
moved were crowded with spectators
and an immense concourse assembled
at the ground of ceremonial. Flags
were displayed in profusion from both
buildings and vessels, and salutes of
artillery were fired.
At high noon the cornerstone was
laid by Jerome r. Goren, Masonic
Grand Master of Illinois. Mayor Rice
delivered an Grafton, in which he
awarded the main credit of the under
taking 10 Ellis L. ChesbrouGh, Civil
Engineer of the city, and stated that
the work was capable of supplying
fifty million gallons of pure water ev-
cry twenty-four hours, and that the
whole cost of the water-works OF Chi
cago will, when the buildings are COM
menced, reach two million five hundred
thousand dollars,

NASHVILLE, March 25.-The late cold
snap in North Alabama has utterly de-
stroyed, in Lauderdale county, the
fruit crop, which, before the frost,
promised an abundant yield. 1t is
found that other surrounding counties
suffered similarly.
The Macon (Ga.) Messenger saws a
young lady in that city having been
afflicted with frightful odor for sever
al days, at last discovered dead mouse
in her waterfall, placed there by a mis-
chievOus brother.
Georgia and Alabama papers, for
two weeks past, have abounded with
editorials contemptuously rejecting the
proposition to hold National Demo-
cratic Convention at Louisville on the
18th OF April.
Under the recent appraisement order
ed by the City Council, the real estate
OF Rome, Georgia, was estimated at
SS9I, 175. Seventy-tivs new houses were
erected last year.
Up to the 2lst instant, Montgomery
had not whole dry day in two weeks.
The roads were in such condition that
no wagon could come into the city.
The river was out of its banks, and
all low lands inundated. 1t was still
raining, and for two days previous had
poured down without intermission.

WASHINGTON, March %.
THE ADJOURNMENT QUESTION

The ADJOURNMENT QUESTION.
Congress to-day, as it intimated it
would in the dispatches last night re-
Versed its position on the final adjourn
ment question. The active caucusinp
yesterday among those who favor con-
tinuance of the session, ard the absence
of many members who favored, on Sat-
urday, an unconditional adjournment,
caused this result.
The movement commenced in the
Senate by recall of its resolution from
the House, passed on Saturday in favor
of an adjournment from tomorrow un-
til December. The House then passed
concurrent resolution that each House
OF congress give consent to the other
to adjourn on Thursday, the 2Sth inst,
until the lst Wednesday, respectively,
in May, June, September, October and
November, unless the President of the
Senate and the Speaker of the House
shall, by joint proclamation issued ten
days before the time above named, de-
clare there is no occasion for the meet
ing of Congress on the day designated,
So active had been the caucusinr on
yesterday, that Notwithstanding the
vote on Saturday, this resolution pass
ed the House by strictly party vote,
and IS regarded, in a measure, as the
triumph OF the impeachment party.
Inc resolution was sent to the Senate
ana mat body having grave doubts as
70 %hether Congress could delegate the
power to its presiding officers to con-
Vene session, referred it to the Judi
ciary Committee. There is prospect,
therefore, that it may yet be amended.
The most interesting subject in the
Senate, to-day, was the consideration of
the resolution to authorize the sale, to
friendly belligerents, of vessels and
munitions of war. Mr.. Chandler, of
Michigan, made loud-voiced speech,
In which he demanded that the Ala
oama claims should be settled at the
mouth of columbiad with hfteen-inch
smells. The speech excited derisive
laughter, and no vote was taken on the
resolution.
