Congressional.

'. WASHINGTON, March 1.-The proceedings
IN the Senate indicate that the provisions OF
the Act Of 1864, limiting the jurisdiction OF
the Court of Claims, will be extended 10 all
the Southern States. 1t comes up as an
amendment to the army appropriation bill.
In the House, committee OF conference
IVES ordered on the bill for the relief o:
owners OF land sold for taxes in inSur-
recuonary States. The omnibus appropri-
alton bill was taken from the table. on II
motion to reconsider. Archer, OF Maryland,
said OF all the millions appropriated by the
BILL, the Sourhcru States received only
about 81 or, 900, aud even Of this sam
about $S00,DOO was for building light
houses to benefit Northern commerce and
Northern contractors. A!nb!er, Of Ohio,
objected to debate, and the bill! was passed
The bill, as passed, omits appropriations Tor
new works. A committee Of conference on
the Texas Pacific Railroad bill was ordered
This action is considered a certain l. dca.
:ion that. bill, in some shape, will pass
this session.. The Cincinnati and Southern
Railroad bill was a sed. Eutler made
two. unsuccessful attt mp's. bv suspension Of
rules, to get sp the kn KluS bill i bill
repeating all duty on coal, t. take effect in,-
mediateiy, was passed.
In The House, to.d'y, three Republicans
{Farps, Fitch and W'lhiu$on) voted against
Buffers ku Klux bill 4 change OF one

Right Of Dover Assailed.

4 bill TO abolish the right Of dover
passed TO third reading in the House
This, SAYS the editor of the Greenville
Enterprise, is another ungallant blow at
the interest Of the more dc!encclrSs part
of our population The right of dover, II
secured interes, III the husbands real estate,
is matter Of immense Importance 10 the
women Of the land. 1t is time -honorcd-
productive Of no serious harm to husbands
and is often tho only means Of support
that woman can expect TO enjoy III the
estate Of her husband when left idow.-
The policy is bad one. 1t Is calculated TO
bring increased anxiety TO many Il true wife,
whose husband, from the miS!ortuueS OF
debt, speculation, securityship, or it may
be from reckless dissipation, or from any
cause, loses his property. The bill is calcu.
lated 10 make paupcrs Of many helpless
women and children. who may lose the
lea! of the family But the Legislature Of
tc State in this, rs in other things, seems
TO b. managed for the exclusive hensft OF
spectators and money dealers. W. have
no idea that the Legislature, under its pre-
sent Influences Of the money power, would
have passed a homestead act or have abol-
iShcd Imprisonment: Tor debt, land this M
Corbin has, in manner, restored in tact
or done anything not N the interest OF
spectators.
We may expect the city dalics to advo-
cate this bill, rs it can only lay open more
ctiectuaIy 10 the prey of money spccuIa-
tors and traders, all the real estate OF South
Carolua. They can credit or take mort
cages, or purchase al low rates, lanlS from
all men rho are hard run, or sue and sell
out hou'es, and lots and lands, and securely
defy the wou,en and children One Of the
great aindrauceS 10 marriage aud the rear
iug Of families, is, with many, the fear of
poverty and helpless want for the wife and
her little ones should she survive her hus-
band. Take away the ight OF dover, and
yoa add greatly to ttIas diScoaragins con.
silcraton, and that among not the most
inferior classes Of the popu' alton. Because
the law protects the wi!e'$ property, is no
reason for aboliShius The right Of dover.
The wifc's lands always reverted 10 her on
tie death % the husband and yet, bJth
in England and in this Country, that fact
never was dreamed Of as dcpriving her Of
dover. The bill. in addition % lis being
wreiched policv,iS, in one view, an insult to
every poor woman in the Slate. low few
women hare good property OF their OWN.
The great majority are poor, and but COM
curative few possessed Of competency.

Yes, in childhood life is brilliant,
But ere long, It's ovcrspread,
With clouds and care and bitter woe,
Then alas: brigh, dreams are dead.

This world, how dark and ireary,
