Drummers and Parliamentary
Rules.
The usual dull routine of legislation at
the Capitol was varied yesterday by some
exciting debates in the Senate, on several
matters pending before that body.
On the question of taxing commercial
travellers who represent merchants resid-
ing In other States, spirited and running
debate arose, which was participated IN by
senators Etheridge and Henry Cooper.
Mr. Etheridgs argued that under the pro-
visions OF section 2, Article Of the con
stitution of the United States, commercial
travellers, (or "drummers") from other
States could not be taxed by State law.
If commercial houses d the State were
not also taxed. That section says ''The
citizens Of each State shall be entitled 10
all privileges and immunities of citizsns
in the several States" Mr.. Cooper on
posed Mr.. Etheridge, and held that com
mercial travellers should be taxed. After
long debate, the matter was decided as
reported in the Legislative proceedings.
Another debate arose on the meaning of
section 10 Of the new Constitution of Ten
nessee which is: "After bill has been re-
jected, no bill containing the same sub
stance shall be passed into law during
the same session" Mr.. Cooper, of David
son, raised the point of order, when eer-
tain bill (the provisions of which are stat
ed in ihe Senate report came up, that as
the subject matter of the bill had already
been acted upon by the Senate, it was not
proper to introduce another bill on the
same subject. Several Senator'S, inelud-
ing Mr.. Etheridge, opposed this view; but
the Speaker ruled that the point Of order
was well taken An appeal was made to
the Senate, resulting in overriding the de-
cision of the Speaker. The point made by
Senator'S who were opposed 10 the Speak
ers decision was that a bill must be re-
jected by both houses, before it could
coma under the provisions of the 10Th
section of the new Constitution, and not
simply when rejected by the Senate.

from the want of food, the Emperor Or
dered three millions rations sent from the
German army to the furnishing city.
Movements of the Emperor William.
The Daily News asserts positively that
the Emperor William is expected to be in
Berlin Wednesday. All the trains con-
verging upon Paris are forbidden to carry
mere travellers who are excluded from
the city unless provided with special
pass from the German government.
While persons are allowed to leave Paris
the French government has requested the
Prussians to prevent admission into the
city. .-...
The Prussians are making collosal eff
forts to supply the city. The breadstuffs
which are now on hand are sufficient to
last till Saturday. The supply of horse
will hold out till the 10th of February. A
great quantity of food has been shipped
from Belgium to Paris.
BERLIN, Feb. 1.-The Geographic re-
port that the Emperor William is about to
return to this city is unfounded. He is
unlikely to come to Berlin before the con-
clusion of a definite treaty of peace.

fers these terms to the national assembly

the manufacture of brooms in Sumner

liner: 'Tt is a safe, profitable business
this making of brOOms. 1t would pay as
well at Gallstin as at Nashville, and
probably better, as the modes and means
of living here are cheaper. By judicious
and close management large business
could be worked up, and patronage could
be commanded from abroad. Then in
stead of having to send our money abroad
to buy brooms, others would send to us.
In this way more money would be put
in circulation in our community; and in
stead of the constant drainage being made

Claims for ConRiscated Property.
The Senate Committee on Claims has
decided a very important and interesting
case growing out of the seizure and con-
ticatiOn of cotton during the war. Among
the captures on the Mississippi and Red
Rivers, subsequent to the occupation of
New Orleans, was quantity of cotton
and mOlssses by the feet commanded by
Admiral Porter. 1t was carried up into
the lower district of Illinois, condemned
by the Court of that district, confiscated
and sold for about $500, 900. Under
the law, half of this was divided
among the captors as prize money and
half was paid into the United States
Treasury. The largest portion of prize
money received out of it, by any one per-
sPn, fell to the share of Admiral Porter,
whose portion was, in round numbers,
81, 900. The remainder was distributed
among the officers and men of some TWEEN
ty vessels. The Supreme Court, in the
decision of the somewhat famous Alex
ander case, drew a distinction between
property captured from Rebels and that
owned and abandoned by Union men, and
decided the latter not subject to confisca-
ton under the law. Sincs then some of !
the original owners of this $3.50, 00s |
worth of property took legal proceedings,
which brought the question again before |
the same court which had condemned the |
property, and it was decided that, under |
the ruling of the Supreme Court in
the Alexander case, the property |
was not subject to confsca-
ton, but the judgment of the
Court does not relieve the owners without
the action of Congress, and the claimants
accordingly come here. The committee
decided TO report a bill directing the Sec
Rotary of the Treasury to place the por-
ton of the proceeds of the sale of the
property which paid over to the United
States, amounting TO $3.50, 900, subject to
the order of the court, to be drawn for
The satisfaction of its judgments in the
cases to come before it. The $780, 900
distributed as prize money, the original
owners will find more difficulty in secur-
ing, even if it could be reached by act of

TEHUANTEPEC.

NEW YORK, Jan. 31.-Col. ]. ]. Will
Jams, Chief Engineer of the Tehuantepec
Railway Company, telegraphs from Nina
lillian, Mexico, on the goth inst, to the
President of the company in New York
as follows.
Myself and staff of engineers, with in
struments and camp equipsge, were all
safely landed from the United States
steamer Neipsic, after voyage of rough
passage. The next day met the COM
missioner representing the Mexican gov
eminent.
On the 9Th we inaugurated the COM
mencement of the works by imposing
ceremonies. The United States Consul
and part of Capt. Shufeldt's command
participated, together with the Mexican
officials and other notables An official
certificate of these proceedings, properly
attested, has been dispatched by mail and
by carrier to the Mexican government.
The United States Consul, under instruc-
tons, forwarded a copy of the official
certificate to the department of State at
Washington. Capt. Shufeldt's report, l
think you will find, confirms my previous
survey of the Isthmus, and demonstrates
that there is a sufficient quantity of water
on the summit of the route already found
for the purpose of a canal.

respect even if he had no authority from
the Directors for it. Judge Swayne, in
his opinion, put great stress upon the
existence of such power in these days for
the protection of the commercial com.
munity. This decision is concurred in by
Justices Nelson, Field, Strong and Brad
ley. Justices Clifford and Davis dissent.
Justice Miller did not sit in the case. The
Chief Justice was absent from the final
discussion, although present when .tne
case was argued. It is reported that he
concurs with the opinion of the MAORI
ity. The decision is very elaborate in its
examination of the question, and the
reading of it occupied about an hour. y
