WAsHMGTON, January 12-P. M.-The
Senate is aconsidering Summers finance
bill-its object being the early restora-
hon OF specie payments. Sumner said
there were more important matters pend
ing than the complete restoration of the
South.
The House Election Committee will
give precedence to Northern over South
ern contested election cases.
In the House, the resolution of the
New York Legislature, Withdrawing as
sent to the fifteenth amendment, was
presented and tabled. Garfield intro
duced bill abolishing the bureau of
refugees, freedmen and abandoned lands.
4 bill was introduced repeating the Act
of June, 1852, defining additional causes
for challenges, and prescribing additional
oaths to grand and petit Jurors in United
States Courts. Virginia was resumed.
Farnsworth, in discussing the bill, said
1T would almost be better to follow the
Bible recommendation, and "swear not
at ell, than to have this eternal repeti-
ton Of oaths, which excluded intell-
gence, worth and wealth from public Of
fice.i Paine, another member of the
Reconstruction Committee, favors the
bill. Without action, the House ad-
journed.
SP. M.-prake's amendment to the
Virgins bill will fail, and the original
bill will pass the Senate. The result in
the House is more uncertain, as the new
members are constantly arriving and the
discussion will probably be prolonged
two or three days.
Sumner, in the Senate, presented n
protest, signed by thirteen persons,
against Virginia's admission. Thurman
said every one of them were office
holders, who would lose their offices
upon the admission OF the State.
The Senate discussed Virginia to ad-
journment. The discussion was quite
bitter, involving elimination and recri-
mination among the Republicans, with
ont, however, any definite action.
Internal g revenue receipts to-day
938s, 900.
General Banks has arrived from his
European tour.
Judge Wood, Circuit Judge under the
new law, commences sessions this week,
in Mobile.
A meeting OF postmasters of the
principal cities, is in session here.
The Naval Committee is considering
bill for the construction of iron. clads,

Washington despatch of snnd,

: Washington despatch of Sunday
say. Governor Hoffman, of New
aorl, sent special messenger here, who
hledyesterday in the State Department
nm oiicial transcript OF the action of the
New Iork Legislature in repeating the
ratihc'tion Of the fifteenth amendment.
When ho question comes up in Congress
the Democrats will make the point that
1T is as competent for the New York
Legislature to repeal the ratification as
1t Is for tie Ohio Legislature to ratify il
after once 'ejecting it."

The UPAs TREE-A CURIOUS FACT IN
THE HISTORY OF DELUsroNs. 1t is one of
the curious facts in the history of delu-
sions that even scientific men once had
an unquestioning faith in the deadly in
fluence of the upas tree Oh all living
things within it's range DR.. Fnrsch. an
eminent surgeon in the service of the
East India Company, first described the
tree and its destructive power in "Pen-
nock's Outlines of the Globe" published
at the close of the lust century, AS he
gave the account from his own observa-
ton, it seemed entitled to greater weight
He said: 81 saw it myself, the sole indi-
vldual OF its species. standing alone in a
scene of solitary horror, in the middle of
naked, blasted plain, surrounded by g.
circle of mountains, tho whole area of
which Is covered with skeletons of birds.
beasts and men. Not vestige of vege-
table life is to be seen within the con
taminated atmosphere, and even the
fishes die in the water
Mr.. Darwin, the distinguished botan-
ist, accepted the theory MS a scientific
fact, and in his Botanic Garden" exer-
cised little poetic license, making the
miasma penetrate over ten leagues SQUARE.
and destroy alike the eagle in the mir or
the lion on the plain.
A more careful investigatio has found
tho tree to be perfectly harmless, and
that the destructive power is due alone
to fumes of sulphate and carbonic acid
and gas coming from volcanic openings
IN the region. There is famous "Val-
ley Of Poison" at the foot of the volcano
Papandaging, in Java, where scientific
travellers have found great number of
dead animals Of various kinds, as dogs.
cats. tigers, rhinoceroses, squirrels,
birds and snakes. The soft parts of the
animals, as the skin and the muscles, and
hair and feathers, nre preserved, while
the bodies crumble and disappear. No
living thing is found in the vicinity, save
the upas trees, and it is not surprising
that superstitious notions of it's mala-
rious power should have been widespread.
But the true cause of death in this case
is very obvious, as there are many cre-
vices and openings in the side of the
mountains, from which carbonic acid
gas and sulphurous fumes are emitted in
great quantities. It was by these ennis
sions that the elder Pliny and his com
panions we're suffocsted at the time of
the destruction of Herculaneum, though
they were miles away from Vesuvius.
