How They DO THINGS IN WYoM-
ING.-In Wyoming tavern a noun
tain rough, venomously rough and
on the rampage, was practising with
his revolver at various objects in the
bar-room. An ox-teamster entered,
called for Il drink, and ball from
the rough's pistol shattered the glass
at his lips. Without a word the
bull-whacker put his hand behind
his back, produced his pistol, leveled
it at the ruilian's head, and remarked
rs the body fell to the floor, THAT
id scoundrel would have hurt
somebody pretty soon" He then
filed another glass, drank the con-
tents, and strobe out of the room as
deliberately as he had come in, and
with whoa, haw, therer" started
his oxen up the road.

gent Ku-Klux legislation became imme-
diately demoralized. Concurrence with
this bill was proposed, with an amend
ment that seven members from the
Senate be added to the committee ap
pointed by the House. Without com
ing to any conclusion on the proposition,
the caucus adjourned to meet again to-
morrow morning. Senators, however,
are generally convinced that nothing
can be done in this matter outside Of
the action taken to-day by the House.
Butler is more enraged tonight than
during the proceedings to-day, if that
were possible. He attributes his dis
comfiture not only to the connlvance o.,
but to the actual assistance rendered by
Speaker Blaine. He will again present
his bill to be printed tomorrow, on the
strength Of the notice given today
He also states that he will not accept
his assignment upon the committee
which the Speaker made to-day, and
Cox, Shellabargcr, job Stevens aud
Kelley also announce that they will
resign. Butler is now engaged in
writing a letter for publication to-mo:.
row, showing the inetticiency Of Peters
bill, and taking ground that it will
weaken the Republican party more
than anything else at the present time,
and all the talk had upon this subject
would make party capital for the Dem
ocrats in the coming campaign. He
also labors to show the folly OF ap-
pointing committee to proceed through
the Southern States, stating that it
would be shown the best side of things,
and would see none Of the evils that
Congress is called upon to remedy.
The Ku-KIux Resolution Prepared
by Speaker Blaine.
The resolution for a select committee
o! thirteen, submitted to the House to-
day, by Mr.. Peters, was prepared by
Speaker Blaine, who intended it as a
substitute for legislation during the
present session on the ku-kluX ques-
ton, all Republicans not being agreed
to the bill as prepared by the caucus
Joint committees. The resolution was
adopted by l27 yeas to Ct nays. of the
yeas IS were Republicans and Is Dem
ocrats; of the nays 80 Republicans and
IA Democrats, so the majority Of each
party present voted for the resolution.
1t is SAID Butler, Shellabarger, Steven
son and Kelley will tomorrow ask 10
be excused from serving on the select
committee. The action OF the House
to-day is considered by some OF the
prominent Republicans as conclusive
against the Ku-Klux bill.

BosToy, March l6.-The following
resolutions were introduced in the Mas.
sachusetts Senate and ordered printed:
Resolved, That every invasion by one
department Of the government Of the
prerogatives of another tends to defeat
the fundamental end Of all constitu-
tional government-tha it shall be a
government OF laws and not Of men.
Resolrcd, That the people Of Massa-
chusetts see with alarm the recent
attempt by the President Of the United
States, not officially proclaimed, but
notorious and avowed by its supporters,
to dictate the organization and appoiLt-
ment Of the committee on Foreign Re-
lations OF the Senate of the United
States.
Rcsoieei, That the acquiescence of
the Senate in the dictation Of the Ex-
ecutive Of the appointment OF the COM
mittee Oh Foreign Relations implies
subservieucy which disqualifies that
branch for an independent performance
OF its constitutional duties to supervise
nominations and treaties laid before
the Senate by the President, and threat
ems the removal of the great bulwark
against Executive usurpation.

we are Commissioners Of the Oniteo
States, charged with the duty OF max,
ing certain inquiries touching the state
and condition of the Dominican Repub,
lie, with view to the possibility On
more intimate relations between the
two Republics than have hitherto ex'
listed, and having performed that duty
we were reluctant to leave this beaut-
full island without doing ourselves the
honor of calling and paying cur re-
spects to the President OF the Haytlan
Republic, and we desire to express our
hope that the same friendly and AMIGA
bic relations that have so long anlmat-
ed the people of both nations may long
continue. In doing this we but express
the sincere sentiment Of the President
and people of the United States. -
To this President Ssget replied that
he gladly reciprocated the feeling OF
friendship expressed by Mr. Wade, and
he would do all in his power to AID
their researches. After some informal
conversation Mr.. Wade said he greatly
regretted not being able to speak IN
their language, because he thought he
would then be able to say a great deal
that would tend to allay the present
feeling toward the United States; by
showing points in which the Haytiens
misunderstood US. President Saget at
this earnestly said that the educated
class in Hayti fully understood and
appreciated the condition Of the United
States, but that large class only re,
membered the slavery which existed
there, and the fact that they had them
selves been slaves, and it was impossl-
blc to influence them. The President
at the close Of the conference said he
would try and visit the Commissioners.
He is not expected, however, on. ac-
count of the general and popular feel
ing against the presence of.the Com
mission in the harbor.
Cabral has sent communication to
the frontier for commission in answer
to the letter from Howe, written at
Arena, but the letter is delayed until
the Haytien authorities can correspond
with our minister in regard to receiving
it. Mr.. Wade is anxious not TO COM
plicate matters by bringing him here,
wishing, as he does, to avoid all appear
ances OF being engaged while in Haytl
in prosecuting investigations looking 10

WASHINGTON, March l6.-Sessions of
the Joint High Commission are held
daily. There is fear prevailing in these
quarters that recent discussion has de-

may prevent a peaceful settlement. In
reply to a question yesterday, one OF
the American Commissioners said, in
significant manner, that if the Com
mission was able to reach satisfactory
conclusion at all, it would terminate its
labors by the middle OF April. 1t is
believed that the difficulty lies in the
inability of the English Commissioners
to meet the preliminary requirements
for negotiations stated by the American
Commissioners as to the Alabama liza

AZ UNEXPECTED EXPLOSION


/ Without any premonitory suggestion e
that effect, the committee on address ap.
pointed by the Democratic State Central
Committee exploded yesterday morning,
bursting up the Times, blowing the con-
servative party into atoms, setting the
Picayune into condition of considerate
thoughtfulness, quieting the Bulletin, sat
isfying the Customhouse faction, and
shooting the Bourbons ahead as the
favorite horses in the political race next
year. Mr.. Henry D. Ogden is the guilty
party who perpetrated all this confusion
upon his neighbors, and the vigor of his
violence is to be accounted for, we sup
pose, by the fact that this is lis first
effort. It will require some time for the
people, who have been abashed and con-
founded by this spasm in the Democratic
State Central Committee, to recover them
selves and to adjust the new outburst of
partisan fidelity to their tagging and IN
certain consistency. Thousands Of Demo-
Gratis have disguised themselves of late
under the mask Of conservatives and
passives, supposing that that was to be
the role in which all their friends, Mr..
Ogden included, would make the next
fight for the Presidency: and hundreds
OF others have eypresseda willingness to
paint themselves Of any color, since the
old Democracy was no longer sufficient to
be their mother any more. It was given
out that the Democratic party was dead
in fact, and that for the salvation Of the
country all the good men were to be con-
sohdated into new army, with a new
name, against the Republicans next year.
Strange to say, We had almost come to
put some faith in this story, and had pre-
pared ourselves to see a new force in the
field, marching toward the polls with
new device and under new leaders.
Mr.. Ogden spoils the suggestion. IIe
and his friends will have nothing of this
treachery for their portion Of the politi-
cal canvass. He and they intend to rally
as Democrats, and to contest for victory
under the blazing banner that Jed the De-
mocracy in 1858. The party is as honest
as it was then, says Mr.. Ogden, and is
therefore entitled to the same support
1t is the only organization that can save
the country, and it would be treason to
desert it. In fact, the genuine Democ-
racy' unadulterated by single liberal
sentiment Or a particle of progress, has
been suddenly vitalized and resurrected
to the general CONSERVATION, and now
parades itself before the people as the
only hope of reform and freedom. |
Mr.. Ogden goes into figures something
after the fashion Of our old friend Dem
nett, contenting himself with quantity
