WASHINGTON.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 24.-The Sec
retary of the Treasury announces that
hereafter silver coin will be paid only
in fractional parts of a dollar, instead
of sums not exceeding $5.
WASHINGTON, Nov. 22.-At a Cabi-
net meeting yesterday, which lasted
four hours and half, official dispatches
were submitted which confirmed the
belief that there is no more reason to
abandon the idea of attaining just
conclusion now than there was yester-
day. The sensational tales now so rife
may have temporary effect, but the
facts remain as they were when we an
nounced the receipt of official infOr-
nation that the Spanish Cabinet is
unanimous in favor of satisfactory
and honorable settlement Of the Vir-
ginius difficulty; but a regard fer the
maintenance of the integrity of Span
ith territory is essential. When it is
understood that no new developments
have occurred since this announce
ment was made, except those regarding
obedience by Burriel of the commands
of CASTELAR,, the apology of Spain must
be, if accepted, favorable indication
of the honest purpose of that Govern
ment to deal justly. 1t will, therefore,
appear that the situation promises fa-
vorable if not peaceful results.
1t is now almost certain that delays
will occnr to such an extent that the
case will necessarily be presented to
Congress in an incomplete condition.
No dispatch has been received con-
tirming the rumor Of second attempt
to kill Gen. Sickles.
Work in the Charlestown navy yard

criticised the Government and pre-

DouBlE their value.

The Constitutional Convention or
Pennsylvania closed its session on the
Sd inst, and an election will be held
on the 18th proximo, to vote for or
against its adoption.
A number of radical changes in the
direction of reforms, have been incor-
porated in the new Constitution for the
keystone State. One provision in
tended to restore popular elections to
their former purity is that the officers
of elections shall number the ballots
as they are received and placed in the
ballot box, and the same number
which is placed on the ballot must be
recorded opposite the name Of the per-
son voting the same. Electors may, if
they choose, also write or have their
names written on the back of their
ballots. Another provision is that
any candidate who may be guilty of
any fraud on the election law, shall be
forever disqualified from holding any
office Of trust or profit.
Another conservative provision con-
corning legislation, requires that a
bill shall be read on three different
days before its final passage, and the
vote upon its passage must be taken by
yeas and nays, to te entered on the
journal; and to pass bill, majority
of all the members Of the House not of
quorum must vote in the affirma-
tive.
Provision Is also made to limit and
ina a good measure prevent special
legislation. The judicial officers are
to be elected, but the term of office has
been generally heightened. The Su-
preme Court Judges term being twen-
ty-one, instead of fifteen years, as at
present.
The October election has been trans
ferred to November, and in the years
of Presidential elections, takes place
on the same day.
The pardoning power has been
placed in q Board Of Pardons, the
board to be composed of the Governor
and four State officers.

while Masterson was out attempted to
rape or seduce the wife of Masterson.
The courage and resistance of the

what had occurred. He armed him
