citizens who extended TO them the hospitalities
of the city. Dinner over, they visited the Fort
Pitt Foundry in company with the Mayor. and
they expressed themselves highly pleased with
the examination of this mammoth establish
ment. The evening was spent at the Opera
House.
On Saturday the party visited the Workhouse
at Claremont, and the largest part OF the day
was spent there. Photographs of the building,
the cells, ETC.. we're furnished each OF the Coun-
cilmen, and they commended the managers in
the highest possible manner for the Judgment
displayed in the erection of the building. AS q
further expression of their opinion they decided
to, Immediately on their return to Philadelphia,
order plans for the building of a Work House
similar to ours, excepting that the cells will be
a little wider and larger, and the house will be
twice as large as ours. What higher commend
alton could have been given5 Late in the after
noon the party came to town, and in the even
ing took their departure for Philadelphia.
The party is composed of the following gen.

A srormx ID ebnte In tie Oorns LegIsI

AStOrmy Debate In the Corps LeRIsIatif.
PARIS, April 5.-Yesterday The Corps Legis-
latif had a stormy session.
NJ Grevy declared that he would resist any
plebiscitunl which was not first discussed by the
chambers.
NJ. Olivier then formally announced that
pIebiscitum would be submitted to the people.
NJ Picard supported NJ Grevy in his demand
for its discussion by the Corps.
Deputies of the Left-Centre advised the Minis
ters to so act that plebiscitum would not be
needed.
M. Jules Favre made violent attack on the
Senatus Consutum, which would add greatly to
the personal power. He said the power of de-
claring war or peace should not be left to the
chief of the State, who after fortunate war
could crush the legislative power The pro-
posed alterations of the constitution he de-
nounced as the ultima ratio of despotism.
The speech of NJ Favre created great excite
ment in the Chamber. Demands were made to
set the question aside. This was opposed, and
q vote was taken, when 1t was decided by l5l to
4 to proceed with the discussion. Owing to the
lateness of the hour the sitting was adjourned,
and 1t is expected that the debate will be re-
sumed and come to a result to-day.
The Proposed Constitutional Changes.
In the Corps Legislatif 1t was announced that
the Government had decided TO make an appeal

Jewell 1888, and English 1887.

CRIPPLED / SEA.
The CITY of Brussels Loses Her Propeller
The Prospects of Her Passage.


Another ship has been crippled, and another
serious accident has befallen one OF our splendid
ocean steamships. At one time 1t is the season OF
fires, then railroad slaughters, again steamboat
horrors on our rivers, but this winter and spring
a strange succession of disasters at sea.
The latest has visited the City of Brussels, of
the Liverpool New York, and Philadelphia
Steamship Company. This steamer is almost
entirely new, A l. of 5000 tons register, with
four decks, twenty-three feet draught of water,
iron built, constructed in Glasgow, ship-rigged,
with seven bulkheads, and is run by the Inman
line.
The City of Brussels cleared from New York
on the Goth OF March, sailing on Monday, the
28th ult. In latitude IL 16 north, longitude 60
west, she was spoken by the steamship Idaho
civilians & Guion), at A: NJ on April 1. The
Idaho was from LIVERPOOL sailing from that
port on the 23d ult. The City of Brussels was
under sail, and Captain Kennedy reported that
he lost his propeller on the 31st ult., and since
then whole suit of sails had been blown away.
At the time of the speaking the City of Brussels
was under full sail, close hauled, and heading
southeast.
The Idaho remained by the disabled steam
ship for two hours, and look letters from Cap
tain Kennedy to his friends in New York, and
from some of the passengers to their friends.
Every one was well on board at the time. These
are all the facts that have been ascertained
about the accident to her machinery.
OF course there is little or no danger, save in
the fact that as an iron steamer she must rely
entirely upon her sails against adverse winds in
a stormy month, and when she has already
sacrificed one complete suit OF canvas to the
elements.
The passage if the breezes or gales (and she
must bow to either) are eastery, will require
long and tedious tacks and reaches to wind
ward, and the passengers may look for long
stay on the rollng deep. 1t seems that a species
of insanity has taken hold of sea captains and
their superiors of late in assuming that once
under way for European or American shores
there is no such thing as returning to port for
relief and repairs. The culpable part of Captain
Kennedy's action is that he was only .hree days
from New York and could easily have docked his
vessel and made out q requisition for fresh can
vas. Concerning the accident to the propeller,
in itself it is hardly dangerous, but where the
screw is very heavy its loss lightens the vessel
by the stern and of course deprives her of a
motive power to defy Winds currents or leeway.
There can be but one opinion as to the duty of
the commanding officer and that is, in view of
the cases of the City of Boston, the Venezuela,
the Smidt, and the other crippled vessels, his
action should have been deliberate and full of
caution. From the bald facts reported the rea-
der can Judge.

some quite injurious; in fact despared of ever
getting WELL and determined to use no remedies
