FORTY SECOND CONGRESS-.
Third Session.
HOUSE.


DECEMBER "a bill was introduced to
amend the Constitution to fix uniform time
for State elections. Mr.. Banks of Massachu-
sets offered resolution fixing the salary Of
the President at fifty thousand dollars per an
mum, commencing March, 1873, and that the
term of Office of President aud Vice President
be six years, the President to beineligible for
reelection, and that the President and Vice
President be elected by the people at the same
time that Congressman arc elected, the por-
ton of the resolution as to the term of the
President being i'll the form of an amendment
to the Constitution. 4 resolution was adopted
for adjournment from December 20 to Janu-
ary G. A bill was introduced to denote twen-
ty-thousand dollars to the Boston fremen for
saving money belonging to the Government at
the late fire. A bill to remove political dis
abilities and granting universal amnesty was
defeated
DECEMBER l0.-Bills were introduced, au-
thorizing collectors to grant special orders for
unloading steamships at night; establishing a
new scale of fees and salaries for custom house
officers; repeating the bankruptcy act; repeal
ing the special tax on retailers OF leaf tobacco;
repeating the enforcement act; abolishing the
special tax on leaf tobacco; for holding Unit
ed States courts in Toledo; for a railroad
bridge across the Ohio river at Owensboro,
Ky. The consideration OF the bill was resum-
ed TO enable honorably discharged soldiers and
sailors, their widows and orphan children
to acquire homestsads on the public lands,
with authority to assign their certificates, and
to locate them by attorneys. After debate the
bill went over.

A BILL was introduced in the
House, last week, which proposes to
give all honorably discharged sol
diers and sailors 100 acres of public
land without requiring actual resi-
dence. 1t met with considerable
opposition, but passed, but may not
become 8 law. We do not believe it
can in any way benefit the great
mass Of the soldiers, as they have
little disposition to settle on wild
lands, and those who can be as well
accommodated by a provision requir-
ing actual residence. The only eff
feet Of such sweeping law would
be to flood the market With Land war
rants, until they we're not yEOrth a
song, and in that way deprive the
soldiers of any real benefit, as in the
case following the Mexican war
land operators getting all the advan-
tage, and the Government suffering
ali the detriment. If it is desirable
TO further testify the country's ap-
precistion of their services let it be
done in such a way that those in
tended to be benefited reap the re-
suit in their own proper persons.

paid for it. A man rushes into q
blazing house and risks his life to
save that of human being, end we
honor him for the act, but let him
accept a flve-dollar note for his ser
vices, and we dismiss him with the
mere thought that the laborer was
worthy of his hire. Kaiser William
did a gracious, thing in studying
over the San Juan boundary ques-
ton, sending a correct decision, and
saying at the end 'there has been no
expenses gentlemen; you have moth
ing to pay" Now let our govern
ment return the courtesy by saying,
sMF. Washburne did a good turn
for the German residents Of Paris,
it is true, but it is always the duty
of'an American diplomat to help the
unfortunate in distress, and there
fore his only reward must be that
Of gratitude" Let the Emperor
send letter of thanks, and it will
be better for Mr.. Washburne, better
for history, than a medal Of gold
Leader.
All Of which is so true and
practical, that we wonder Congress
men could for a moment entertain
an idea to the contrary.

other designations from the staff
have since been rendered Mr.. Or
ton then requested Mr.. Reid, as a
personal favor, to remain in charge
of the paper for time, continuing
its policy unchanged, and he consen-
ted to remain till tue end OF the
present week. 1t has been for for
ty-eight hours uncertain to which
side the sale would probably be
made. The majority Of the Trus-
tees who desired to continue the pa
pei. on the basis of Mr.. Creeley's
card, with Mr.. Reid at its head,
needed only eighteen shares of stock
to secure clear majority. Mr..
Reid offered to buy these at $4,000
share cash, or at considerably
larger price, but Mr.. Sinclair had Sc
cured enough of them to prevent
him from making up the number.
Messrs. Reid and Hay also offered
Mr.. Sinclair $4,000 for his own
shares, and the twelve Of LIE Clark
estate which he controlled, and all
the other Trustees insisted that Mr.,
Sinclair was bound under by tile
laws of the Association to sell to
them before selling at the same price
to an outside party. Mr.. Sinclair,
however, claimed to be under obhga
tiops to the others which he could
not discharge save by completing
the trasaction of ffty-one shares
with Mr.. Orton.
1t is reported that Ex-Governor
E. D. Morgan, ex-Suryeyor A. B.
Cornell Of that wing Of the Republi-
can party, are to unite with Orton in
carrying the stock.
In the final sale Mr.. Sinclair re
tanned three of his shares and it is
understood desires TO continue qs
publisher. Those siding with Messts
Reid and Hay, were Geo. Ripley,
Thomss NJ. Rocker, Phillip Fitz-
patrick, Patrick O'Rourke, Oliver
johnson, C. A. Rumple and Jno. f.
Cleveland, Mr.. GreeIey's brother-in-
law, who represented his own stock
and that of the Greeley estate.

Senator Sumner supposes he can uumGke
history by crushing the names of battles from
our reglmental flags. We see it stated that a
block of marble has been quarried in Vermont
and is now on its way to Richmond, Virginia,
to be worked into memorial sarcophagus,
with recumbent statue of General Lee Why
does not Mr.. Sumner, by resolution, stop that

of the war alive, aud besides, think of it. that

England and quarry block of marble to pei
petuate the memory oft General who led The

permitting Minister Washburne to
accept some reward from the Ger
man government for his services to
the German residents of Paris dur

that better counsels will prevail.
Mr.. Washburne's services were OF
the highest order. Asa man and as
a diplomat he showed himself TO be
worthy of his government and of the
high position to which he had been
assigned. But his kindness to the

Commercial of Saturday says:
For the purpose of obtaining ballastfug, the
Lake Shore IL Michigan Southern Railway
Company have recently laid track from their
main line, at point three miles east Of Port
Clinton, noFthwardly to the sand ridge, con-
Meeting Catawba Island aud the Peninsula.
The company have purchased the land (or
rather sand) the whole length of the ndge,and
erected neat and substantial clearinghouse
npon it for their workmen. They are now
taking out and distributing along the line
from sixty to eighty car loads of sand and
gravel per day. The surface of the ridge, to
depth of tRO OF three feet, consists of fine
sand; below this is found a coarse clean gravel
of the best quality for ballastlng purposes. As
soon as the frost will permit In the spring.
steam dredge will be used in loading the cars,
The workmen have exhumed several human
skeletons. From the position in which they
were found, and from the shape of the skull.
they are without doubt the remains ofIndians.
They were found lying upon the right side,
with faces to the east. Dentists in their day
would have found but little to do If all had as
perfect teeth as the specimens disinterred.
