QUESTION or PRIVILEGE.
When the President called 70. the report
G: the Committee on penitentary. Mr..
and explained himself at length upon
communication which he read in the Pica'
gene, concerning the action Of the Com
mittee on Penitentiary.
NJ. Blackburn characterized the c"minu-
nication as falsely rejecting upon the mo-
lives Of the committee, OF which lie was
temporary member.
Sir. Burch also rose TO question OF
privilege upon the same communications DIS
member Of the Committee on Fenl'eH'
tiary. and spoke at some length, thai 1he
absence Of the chairman of the committee
WAS The only reason why the report was

Messrs. Syphcr and Herwig submitted a
minority report. rs members OF the Com.
,n;ttee on Railroads. as follows:
To The Ho. oGabie President and Members OF the
Senate:
4 minority Of your Committee on Rail
roads and lnteIna. Improvements have had
under consideration House bill No. =. 70 IN.
CORPORATE the Louisiana Central Railroad.
after careful consideration and investiga-
ton into all its points and bearings. beg
leave 70 submit the following report:
II - the opinion Of a minority OF your
committee that 70 grant this charter would
work An injury 10 the extent Of at least
s. 800 900. as the State has already pad
another company: VIZ: the New Orleans,
Mobile and Texas Railroad Company.
So 500 per mile. 1t is true that the State
holds stock TO This amount in the tnain
road. but il is equally true that the bonds Of
the State were issued in payment OF said
stock in lieu of an Endorsement OF second
mortgage bonds in said branch road.
Your committee is further of the opinion
that to grant this charter would be IL con-
fiic: with the vested rights of the New Or
leans. Mobile and Texas Railroad Company,
and other rights granted by the State, and
would he. in the opinion OF the minority Of
vour committee. just grounds for these
COMPANIES 20 commence proceedings against
the State for damages. or at least repudiate
all the obligations they may owe the State.
Including S2J00.000 stock. and the !ndorse-
mert OF second mortgage bonds 20 the
amount Of - millions OF dollars.
Ii also seems very strange to the minority
OF your committee that some of the stock
holders .. the New Orleans. Mobile and
Texas railroad names should appear as in.
cOrpora'ors in thls bill. and that they
shou!d be g" very active in their efforts IN
securing the passage o. this bill. 4 minor
ity OF ycu- committee therefore beg leave
10 report untavorably, and recommend that

JUSTICE IN ARKANSAS.

The following account of unique way
of promising TO dispense justice on the part
of a Justice of the Peace, and, after all, of
negleeting to do it, is supplied by the Little
Rock (Ark.) Republican "Some time ago
two men, named William Toll and McHa-
ney, were brought before Squire Orrin
Watson, Of Eagle Township, accused of
stealing, butehering, and eating COW be-
longing to Samuel Crawford. The accused
were regularly tried and convicted of the
felony. After conviction they entered into
an agreement with the Squire whereby
they were to turn oyer two horses to him,
which he was to sell, and out of the proceeds
pay Crawford for his COW. Upon this agree
inent the convicted parties were discharged.
The affidavit also further states that Squire
Watson sold the aforesaid horses, but
through some means forgot to paw Crawford
for his COW. In the meantime Orrin Wat
son turns round and pr4ys warrant for
Carter Mcclellan for an assault with pis-
tol and threatening to kill him, which was
also issued, and Carter arrested. Bob par
ties were placed under honda for their fu'
ture appearance"

The Biggest Proposal Of Marriage On

From the Washington Republican, Ang. II.
The follow ng letter was received at the
Treasury Department yesterday:
JACKSON, MADISON COUNTY, TENN,
Aug. 7, 1875. Ladies of the Treasury De-
partment of .. S., Washington, d. g.:
Dear Ladies: The writer was In Washing
ton on Monday last, and among the many
scenes which fell within his view, OF Curl
osi v, art ano beauty, the finest Of them all
was the general appearance of those fair
ones who dwell within the walls OF the great
cash-house of the broad nation.
And as was the Persian Shah charmed
with the art and splendor of English insti-
tutions, so was the aforesaid writer all"--. I'd
with he beauty of those fair ono.s,
l, perhaps, would rather have known
some of you separate, but how to form the
acquaintance of any of you, as Hamlet says,
that was the question then; but fortune
favors the brave and never abandons the
just, and In that hour she stood by me and
kindly whispered write to al :, and so
did it.
Aud In this letter l would make manifest
the feelings of my heart if language was ad.
equate to thus express these sorrows. i
want those who want to be married ladies
to write to me at once and let me know
their terms.
You may think that'character has CON-
PEELED me to wander far from hcme to find
affection, but the facts in the case are that
am carpet-bagger, an have pretty fair
struggle to live among these hestheDs, with
much less to make any pretentions towards
their daughters. So those who help the sac
soul of suffering humanity in the dresry
hours of impending danger will write me &
letter and bid me live in hope. My age is
q, and feet tai, and fair to look upon
m name for this time l will withhold, anC
those writing will for the time address &c
