gho Illinois Tar. # Question.

The Chicago Tribune, in turning from the
rather effective assaults on the present tariff,
to a defence of The action of the repub licans
of tho Illinois house in refusing to say what
it has said again and again, for at least one
hundred times, within the last eighteen
months, finds itself somewhat embarrassed
The democrats u the Illinois house were
willing to accept the resolution which the
FepublinAns subsequently adopted for two
hrst rate reasons Fret, it did not express

third or fourth class journals attempting,
now aud then, to distort and pervert the
meaning of their adyersaries by quoting a
part of sentence aud separating It from

done in the present instance, and we submit
that it is unbecoming the dignity OF a news

FROM WASHINGTON.

Washington, March 20. 1t is understood
that the President will recommend legislation
transferring jurisdiction from the State to
federal courts in certain cases, with view Of
insuring prompt justice against perpetrators
Of certain crimes.
In the House to day the Speaker presented
message from the President, earnestly
recommending such legislation as will secure
peace and security of life and property in
certain parts of the South.
The President sent the following message
to Congress this afternoon:
To the Senate and House of Representa-
tives The condition of affairs now existing
in some Of the States of the Union, render
ing life and property insecure, and carrying
mail and the collection of revenue is danger
Gus. The proof that such state of affairs
exists in some localities is now before the
Senate. That the power to correct these
evils is beyond the control of the State au-
thorities, do not doubt. The powers of the
Executive of the United States, acting within
the limits of the existing laws is insufficient
Therefore l recommend such legislation, as in
the judgment Of Congress, shall effectually Sc
cure life, liberty and prosperity in all parts
OF the United States. 1t may be expedient to
provide such a law as shall be passed in pur-
suance of recommendations, and shall ex-
pire at the end of the next session Of Cong
ress. There is no other subject on which
will recommend legislation during the present
session.

The body of Mr. King who was killed by
the catastrophe at Hallowell Tuesday, has
not been recovered. Mr. Buzzell work
man in the workshop, had left the building
only few moments previous to the event
that proved so fatal to the life of his employer.
The building, though crushed, and partially
torn in pieces, foated into the Kennebec, still
retaining portion of its contents Efforts
to moor the main portion of the wreck were
successful and after considerable labor it was
drawn against the shore of Shepards Point
where it now lies. The body of Mr.. King is
still being searched for, but the probability of
its discovery is doubtful. Mr.. Buzzel thinks
the unfortunate man was in the first story of
the building at the time the torrent rolled
against it, and had no time to escape. He
may have been crushed by the falling timbers.
The propretors of the wool which was in the
building, have been successful in recovering
a portion from the wreck. Parties have been
busily engaged in cleaning it, but only a
small portion of the whole can be saved.
The street commissioner of Hallowell, Mr.
John Graves, succeeded in placing a bridge
on Wednesday across the stream, so as to
allow public travel over the highway to

Bismarck Demands the Restoration
of the Telegraph.
Favre's reply to Bismarck.
ersallleS.

Versailles, March 90. In the National
Assembly to-day, an adverse report was
made from the Committee upon the bill pro-
viding for election in the municipalities in
Paris.
Favre read a letter from Bismark, who
SAYS the events in Paris do not indicate the
execution of the convention entered into with
German commanders, which torbids any
approach to the lines before the forts occupied
by Germans. Bismarck claims the restora-
ton of twenty four miles of telegraph leading
to Pentin, which has been DESTROYED, or
Paris will be treated as an enemy, and should
there be any more proceedings in violation to
the preliminarles of peace, the fire of the forts
will be opened upon the city. Favre stated
to the assembly that he had replied to Bis
marck that the Instruction in Paris was a
surprise to the government. but would be
repressed, ii there was delay in its surpres-
sion it would be because the government
hoped to avoid bloodshed The government
had no means of repairing the telegraph, but
would aid III the reinstatement of the mayors
of announcement through which it passed.
General Leconlte and General Thomas
were buried in bitches.

go out Of that colony into another one, the

them, as he thinks Mr.. Quinby has done. We
