now congress was not Adjourned
IN Honor Of Horace Creelev.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 3.-lhe Senate TODAY was
guilty OF an act which, in view OF all the circ-
eumstances' cannot reflect much credit upon it.
~ was IN contemplation to take some notice OF
tae q death OF Horace Greeley, and Senator Fenton,
ot New 1ork, was prepared to submit motion
nsoviding for the adjournment OF the Sonata from
n'ay until Thursday. as mark Of respect to
- memory OF Mr.. Greeley. The fact became
known to certain Senators who were anxious to
prevent any movement OF the kind, because they
aid not care to vote against it, and did not want
to vote for it. Accordingly soon after the Senate
assemoied, ana before Governor Fenton could get
'nc moor, General Cameron arose and moved an
adjournment until tomorrow. Senator Fentop
tired to get o hearing, but the Vice President
ruled that on u motion to ad ourn debate was not
IN order, and the motion OF General Cameron was
carried. Had Senator Fenton been permitted to
speak he would have said:
desire to leave for New York at o'clock, and
therefore venture upon the indulgence OF the SEN
ate to make motion ut this time. 1t has refer
ence to the great bereavement We all deeply feel
In the death OF Horace Greeley. This sad event
touches the hearts Of all our people Not only in
our iand but the struggling ana good in all the
lands OF whatever rank or condition, will unite in
deep and long lament over his death. In further
pubic recognition OF an event SO impresslve OF a
grief SO universal and profound, move that when
the Senate adjourns to-day it adjourns to meet on
lhurs1ay next. l may remark that several Sena-
tyrs desire to attend the funeral and 1t is sem-ot-
4cially announced that the President and Vice.
York to-day for the same purpose.
Senator Sumner intend Il to second the motion
4 Mr.. Fenton. In do ns so he would have SAID
Mr.. President. have been requested to second
tAls motion. One word. ii you please. A funeral
will take place tomorrow OH which the eyes OF
the nation will rest, while innumerabe hearts
throb with grief, aud the people learn the ii,st,-
bility OF life and the commandment OF charity. l,
proper, therefore, tor the representatives OF the
nation to suspend labor, that they too may be pen
etrated by the lesson of the day More for them
than the iustrious dead is tins needed lie i.
gone beyond any earthly call. We remain Du
ties are always tor the living; and now, STANDING
at the open grave OF Horace Greeley, We are al
monished to forget the strife OF party, and to re
member only truth, country, and mankind, t,
which his honest life was devoted. In other day
the horse aud armor OF the departed dMieftain hav
been buried in the grave where h, repesed. So
too. may bury the animosities ii not the badges
Of the past. Then, indeed, will there be victor,
for tho dead which all will share.

FIRE PROOF misunderstanding nov
el and probably practical method OF rendering
buildings absolutely iire.proof is noticed by the
4mericda Manufacturer. The plan, for which
a patent is pending, consists Of two light IRON
plate walls, rolled or cast, and formed with
columns of double (I) or letter /, or any
other practicable shape. rabbctted on the edges,
and made wa;er.t tight by caulkng, and by FIRE
and water proof cement. The si!ls, joists. and
plates are constructed in the same manner, the
hollow chambers, formed by the iron plates
and columns. communicating with each other,
and the building held together firmly by hor-
zontal and perpendicular concealed nutted rods.
The building can be ornamented IN any style to
suit the taste of the owner. The novelty OF
the idea consists in connecting the chambers
thus formed, through the sills. with the water
mains of the city. When in danger of fire the
water is turned on. and the pressure at once
forces it into these chambers from sils to plates
and throws it in jets, from different places upon
the roof, completely flooding it and rendering
the building absolutely FIRE proof, even in the
most intcuse heat. A building constructed on
this plan would require little or no insurance,
would save much valuable ground that is now
used for thick walls. and can be made ut the
mills, the parts adjusted and numbered, and
shipped and put up with the same facility that
bridges are now. The cost OF such fire-proot
building will not exceed that OF granite, brick
or iron one Of similar style of finish. We
learn that a company is to be formed tor the
manufacture and erection of buildings on TINS
plan.
