AN ENORMOUS EGG.-We were presented by

champion goose-egg of the neighborhood, laid
by goose belonging to Mr.. VIM. Fl. Brackett
at his farm on Peaks Island. This egg girts
eleven inches lengthwise, nine inches in cir
cumference, and weighs nine ounces. The
goose that performed the wonderful feat OF in
Producing this egg to the cold charity Of the
world is quite small, and we do not see egg
sactly how so small goose could lay so big an
egg. Sawyer says Brackets hens are given
to laying "hefty" eggs also, and if they rival
those of his geese we shall think that sea-air is
provocative of fecundity.

mere diplomatic threat was addressed to Mexi
co, tn ng destitute of special significance but
| in the case of San Domingo military order
was issued.
Mr.. Morton replied that that was a distinc-
| ton without a difference: because in the case
| OF Texas the United States forces had been
promptly ordered to the Texas coast to there
act as the emergency might require.
Further controversy ensued between Messrs.
| Morton and Schurz as to the analogy of the
| two cases.
The Vice President here informed the Senate
that he had received letter from Gen. Cabral
in reference to the statement made by the SEN
ator from Massachusetts (Sumner) that he had
shown letter to that Senator but 1T was not
| laid before the Senate.
| Mr. MOrton-Let us have it read.
Mr. Hamlin-l don't think it ought to be

Mr.. SUMNER would be glad to have it read
here, and think the petition presented by me
the other day from many exiled Dominicans
suffering from the tyranny of Baez should be
| read.
The Vice President stated he had declined tt
lay the letter before the Senate for the same
reason that he bad excluded the memorial o
the Senator from Massachusetts, both being
from persons not American citizens.
Mr.. Harlan then addressed the Senate in re-
ply to Senator Summers speech. He had care
fully read every line of the fifteen columns o.
that Senator's elaborate speech. The Wnoit
charge, the whole foundation for the grave ar
raignment of the President was the single par
agraph in the instructions to our naval com
manders in the vicinity of Dominica, directing
them to preserve peace during the tendency 0
negotiations between Dominica and the United
States. Not one belligerent act had been com
mitted; not one gun fired; not one drop o
blood shed.
Mr.. Sumner here remarked that by his read
ing of the Constitution the war-making powe
was conferred exclusively upon Congress
Senator Harlan must either admit tina
the President had usurped this power or els

The fact that no blood had been shed in tn

Mr.. Harlan said we had always treated witt
