The House bill in lieu was adopted by u

In the House several dissatisfied legis-
lators said their say about the apportion-
ment bill. The joint resolution declining
To reopen the dispute concerning the
boundary line between the States of Yir-
ginia and Tennessee was taken up.
Mr.. Enloe offered the following ms a
substitute for that portion of the resolu-
ton which referred to the proposition to
u~nsettle or disestablish the line as mis-
chievOus as wanton
Resolved, Said boundary line having
been SO long legally settled and establish
ed, it is the deliberate judgement of this
general assembly that any action on our
part tending to u%nsettle or disestablish
said boundary line, or oven awaken u
bOubt as TO its perfect validity and in
volatility, is in direct conflict with tn c
vested rights Of Tennessee, and such action
is, and of right ought to be, discontinued
by this general assembly.
Mr.. Euloe's amendment was adopted
ayes, 81, noes 81. After which the res
o~lution, as amended, was concurred in.

Of Claiborne county, Tennessee, has sub

is willing to mortgage his small estate,
double his amount of subscription, and

A Loss to the World.

An associated Press dispatch states
that q confiagration, attended with the
most disastrous results, occurred ut Dus-
seldorf in Prussia, March 10Th. The
town council hall and the world-famed
Academy OF Art wero burned, and q
largo number of the most valuable pain
tings in tho latter building were de-
stroyed.
This loss will be felt by the entire art
world. The greater part of the original
Dusseldorf gallery which was establish
ed in 1890, and which contained superb
specimens of the best Flemish and
Dutch masters, was transferred to Mu-
nish in 1906, but fourteen thousand
original drawings and t~ enty-four thou
sand engravings md casts were allowed
to remain. Prince Karl Theodore es-
tablisbed tho Academy of Paintings in
1767, and it WIS renovated in 1892 by
Frederick William III. The Art Union
was founded in 1928. Three hundred
water color drawings after italian mas
tiers were added in 1S41. The engravers
establishment of tho Royal Academy o.
Schulgen Bettendorf was removed from
Bonn to Dusseldorf in 1897. The aver
nge annual attendance of art students
is about four hundred.

Testimony Of Senator Schurz on the
Sale of Arms 10 tho French-The
RukluX Law TO be Tested Again.
Senator Schurz, on the 22nd inst,
says n dispatch from Washington, testi-
fed before tho Senate Committee on the
Sale Of Arms as to tho manner in which
he first obtained information about the
sales for the French Government to
Remington. About q week before the
Christmas vacation a copy of q letter
from Remington to l.. Il. G. Cessna was
shown to him by n Congressman 1.-THE
samc as it appeared in the preamble to
Summers resolution. He did not know
of his own knowledge how tho copy was
obtained. Ho said he did not feel at
liberty to tell the name of the member,
but thought he had no objection himself
to doing so. 1t was not Summer how
over.
In reply to a question whether no had
any knowledge of any officers of tho
Government receiving money from the
salos, Witness replied that a good deal
of information had come to him from
third persons in confidence. He thought
this Information could be procured by
the Committee in evidence.
Mr.. Carpenter who had asked tho
question from what persons Mr.. Schurz
obtained tho information said ho would
waive it for the present.
AIr. Schurz in course of his oxamina-
ton said he did not obtain this informa-
ton from persons othor han citizens.
Adjourned till Monday.
During the proceedings Senator
Hamlin held in his hand an article from
the N0yd DeUtSche Ahmaine Msltung, and
transferred it to Senator Schurz who
read it, saying that the paper was prin-
ted i'll Berlin, and was IN official organ.
Tho following sentence occurs therein.

CHANGING at the history of tho pork
trade, the Price Current remarks;
When We commenced publishing the
statistics of pork packing in the West,
twenty-five years ago, with but few ex-
captions, Indiana was tho farthest Vest
ern State deemed of much importance.
Chicago was then tho principal packing
point west of Indiana, and in 1850 about
10000 hogs were packed there; but the
breed of hogs in all that region was of the
aboriginal character, and the pork made
from them was regarded third class. Now
west of Indiana in the great pork region
of the United States, and, not many years
hence, it will be west of the Mississippi.
The vast expanse of rich prairie land in
Iowa, Missouri, Kansas and Nebraska now
being developed with a rapidity that is
surprising, comprise, beyond doubt, the
best agricultural region of the United
States, and it is to this district that those
who deal in cured meats must look in the
future. Thirty years ago Albany, New
York, was the greatest beef packing mart;
then followed Buffalo, Cleveland and
Chicago; but now Kansas City, Missouri,
isithe great beef mart of the United States,
although fifteen years ago it was only a
frontier hamlet; but during tho season
just closed there were packed at that
point $4,000 hogs and $4,000 head OF
beef cattle.

The Daily CHrUnicic of tho 2Gth inst,
contains y lotter from IL correspondent
at Athona, McIIinn County, "Voritas," in
which he says the Grant republicans arc
i'll q fourishing condition and have no.
thing to fear, and that AfcAIinn will rplI
up n larger radical majority than in tho
last elections when tho time comes. We
think tho correspondent is very badly
mistaken. When the last election was
held in that county the Athens district
voted one hundred colorcd votes all
voting radical except two or three. If
the election was held there tomorrow
it would not vote moro than sixty COL
ored voters, if even that number, so there
il q docro@so. Again it must be borne
in mind that some Of the carpet bag
gers, no better than negroes in Athens,
If as good, have gone to other and more

sion is that the democracy can safely re-
lyon a majority Of al least one hundred.
