future coin contracts, which was rejected
Ayes, 10; nays, S5.
Mr.. Bsyard's amendment striking out
the whole Of the second section was lost
Ayes, 4; noes, 81.
The Senate then took recess.
House.-Mr. Blackburn moved, in the
Louisiana case, that Simon Jones is enti-
tied to the seat; which motion was lost.
The report Of the committee, that Jones is
not entitled to the sect, was then adopted.
A resolution then came up declaring the
seat vacant, and the contest between Me-
nard (colored) and Hunt came up. The
contestants were allowed fifteen minutes
each.
A suggestion that Menard speak from
the clerks desk was objected to.
Menard then made his speech. He said
he appeared more to acknowledge this
privilege than to make an argument, but
would be recreant to nine thousand men Of
his race whose votes sent him here if he
did not vindicate their rights. He claimed
no special privilege on account of his color.
Mr.. Maynard, Of Tennessee, moved that
Menard be sworn in pending the contest.
A squabble en5ued, in which Speaker
Colfax had occasion to say to Mr.. Chenler,
of New York, "Ihe remarks of the gen.
tlemen from New York are not respect
full to the Chair, nor are they true"
Mr.. Chanler Very we'll, sir, will leave
that to be decided by the record.
Mr.. Epson, from the Election Committee,
proceeded to argue in favor of the majority
resolution, that neither Hunt nor Menard
are entitled to the seat.
Mr.. Kerr argued in favor of the mi,
nority report that Hunt was entitled to it
The first vote was on the minority re-
port, and defeated it-136 to Al.
The next was taken on Mr.. Paine's
amendment seating Menard, and defeated
it-130 to 81.
The whole subject, on motion Of Mr.
Dawes, was laid on the table without di,
vision.
Mr.. Dawes moved that Jones and Menard
be allowed $4,000 each to pay the expenses
Of the contest, and accepted an amend
ment including Mr.. Hunt, and the resolu-
ton, as amended, was passed.
Mr.. Boutwell, reported a bill technically
amending the bill removing the disabilities
Of July It'll, 1868; which was passed.
Pending O resolution Of inquiry as tc
whether certain relics of George Washing.
ton were about being delivered to General

New Orleans, unlike any other great city
in the world, is surrounded by wild ami

the City Hall, and alligators abound in

news is than an American spotted tiger has
completely devoured little girl in parish
not far from the city. These animals, it is
said, are increasing in that part Of Lou

DECISION IN REGARD TO INSURANCE

DECISION IN REGARD TO INSURANCE
poIJcIEs.-The Supreme Court Of Illinois
hos recently rendered decision of con-
s;5erable Importance to insurance interests,
copcerning the power Of insurance compa-
MES to yitiate policies. The case involved
wss that Of a butcher for rather the keeper
# meat-shop), who kept keg of saltpe-
ire in his shop notwithstanding that the
terms written in his policy Of insurance
declared that the keeping of saltpetre
should vitiate it. It also appeared that on
one occasion he sold quantity Of saltpetre
70 customer. The proof showed that it
was customary for dealers in meat to use
seltpc,re in small quantities in their BUSH
ness. The court held that such customary
use Of the article implied knowledge Of
the fact on the part Of the underwater !;
and that the mere fact of use, or of keeping
for use, in reasonable quantity, would not
yitiate the policy. But key of saltpetre
vas, under the proofs, more than reason
able ousntity, and the fact of selling to a
customer made the butcher dealer in the
article TO such an extent as clearly to rem
der the policy void under its terms.

BLufrISa AN Aup1ESoE.-John Palmer
had very long part In new play one
evening, and was set down in the bills TO
speake the prologue. Trusting to a quick
study, he kept postponing his attention to
both until the last moment, and when the
curtain-bell rang went on for the prologue
without knowing word Of it. The house
was packed, and Of course in terrific mp
roar, as always at the commencement of
performance. The indomitable Palmer,
amid the confusion, began to move his lips
and gesticulate, as if delivering his lines.
AS nobody heard a syllable, the cries of
" silence," " Hear the prologue" Down
in front" !" Order" redoubled from every
quarter. He ceased his motions, and with
the most graceful dexterity pretended to be
greatly disturbed by the disorder, and made
a token to the gallery as if to indicate that
he could not proceed unless that part of the
audience became quiet. This stratagem get
the pit bowling at the supposed offenders
in the upper regions and amid the riotous
olamor that ensued Palmer came forward,
moved his lips and gesticulated as before,
and just as the Babel was ceasing, made his
bow and went off.
