ADMONIsHED FOR DIsLOYALrY.


WASHINGTON, Dec. 1.-THE Admin
istration took Mr.. Dawes in hand to-
day, and in discreet privacy he was
seriously admonished and wrestled
with because of his expression of dis
loyal sentiments in the House yester-
day. 1t was represented to him by
those who have a call to look after such
matters, that as chairman of the first
committee of the House, and, conse-
-quently, the leader of the Republican
party, he ought not to allow himself to
forget that great deal is expected of
him, and that he ought to conduct him
self more decorously, if he expects to
get along in life. Dawes is disposed to
feel the justice of the reproof, and is
somewhat grieved that he lost control
of himself, but he nevertheless declines
to give those promises of amendment
which would gladden. the hearts of the
good men who troubled themselves to
labor with him, They look upon Linn
with a great deal of SORROW and much
righteous wrath, as one who may soon
leave and sadly damage them.

4 Railroad Row.

ST. ALBANs, Dec. 13.-An application
of the Central Vermont Railroad Company
for an injunction to restrain the Vermont
and Canada Railroad Company from hold
ing, or attempting to hold, funds due the
Central from the lower roads by trustees,
was granted to-day by Chancellor Royce.
1t was claimed, however, by the Vermont
and Canada Railroad Company that they
were not attempting to hold the funds due
to the Central Vermont, but funds due to
j. G.. Smith, w. G. Smith and Joseph
Clark, trustees under first mortgage, and
who alone are defendants in the suit. The
injunction, therefore, is limited to funds
due to the Vermont Central, and is intended
to apply to any similar suits that may be
brought.

We Pilgrims Secede from Plymouth.
New YORK. Dec. I2.-At prayer meet
ingin the Church of the Pilgrims, Brooklyn,
last evening, Rev. DR.. Storey, pastor, pre-
siding a resolution was adopted to the eff
feet that if the Plymouth Church abides by
the terms of the resolution introduced by
Rev. Mr.. Beecher and adopted, prOclaiming
the sovereignty of that Church in the mat
ter of church polity and government, then
the Church of the Pilgrims would be sepa-
rated from fellowship with them. The
Congregational Church of Clinton Avente,
took similar action last evening, DR.. Bud
dington, the pastor, declaring that if the
Plymouth Church persisted in its declara-
tions of independence, there must be a
formal recognition Of separation by prop
erly constituted Council.

A singular revival occurred at a Quaker
meeting in Richmond, Ind, few nights
since. The converts stripped themselves
of all articles of jewelry and devoted them
to the Lord. Women parted with their
wedding rings and men with their watch
chains, until the ladies appointed to re
ceive them had about three hundred dollars
worth of trinkets in their possession. One
man, Knight Templar, added his regalia
and sword to the treasures.

PaIace-Random Shots Fired.
HAVANA, Dec. 13-Last night several
hundred men marched cheering and shout
ing to the Plaza De Armas, and gathering
in front of the Captain Generals palace,
gave noisy expression to their dissatisfac-
tion at the departure of the Virginius, and
disapproval of the course of prominent per-
sons who favored the delivery Of the vessel.
Two Spaniards who endeavored to pacify
the mob were rudely hustled about, and
several shots, believed to be accidental,
were fired. The crowd fingered around
the palace till midnight, when Captain
General Jouvelar addressed them and pre-
vailed upon them to go to their homes.

The conditions of life are more fatal to
men than women. Although the proper
ton of boys born in any civilized commu-
nity is 104 or 105 to every 100 girls,
greater number of the lattersurvive to reach
maturity. In fact, in nearly all countries
there is surplus Of women. In England
there are I03 women to every 100 men, and
i'm Amer ca the excess of women IS fully >
per cent, while in certain parts OF the
United States, such as Massachusetts,, the
emigration of young men has made far
greater disparity in the numbers OF Ithe

Benjamin P. Buckler, of Texas, asking
that the action be deferred on the vari-
ous bills providing for the repeal If the

ton of suits now pending under the

fel0niousiy taken moneys belonging TO
tihe firm Of Jay Cooke & Co.; secondly,
that the firm of Jay Cooke & Co., have
steadily refused to make any showing
as to the amount Of cash they had on
hand at the time of failure; and thirdly
that the firm of Jay Cooke & Co., did
abstract from their vaults after
they had ceased payments, and were in
process Of adjusting their affairs, a
large sum in currency, which they
fraudulently conveyed to the Treasurer
of the United States to make up for
the sum of one hundred and eighty
seven thousand dollars, which the Gov
ernment had on deposit with the First
National Bank, of this city, at the time
of It's failure, whereby the creditors Of
Jay Cooke & Co, are sought to be de-
frauded.

Hog Statistics.

The number of hogs packed here to date
7G9,197 against 429, 9,430 same time last
year.
The Commercial Bulletin to-day says
very little definite information has been re-
ceived during the week in reference to the
packing Of the west. Receipts of hogs con-
tinue quite large at all principal packing
points, and packers have transacted a.large
business, notwithstanding enhanced values.
1t may be considered safe to estimate the
aggregate packing of the West TO date at
100000 hogs or 80 per cent of the total
slaughter of last season.

Fighting Foley, as he deserves assuredly to be
called, having some time since placed In position
his siege guns with view to an assault upon the
works Of the City Chamberlain, opened yesterday,
under the direction Of General Dyott, q vigorous
fire from his batteries. Some shots hit, but the
most fell short and the result was very little dam
age. The City Chamberlain returned the nre.from
his heavy Edmonds and Lawrence guns, innicting
some damage in return on the assailant's works
Dropping military metaphor and coming down to
plain matter OF fact, the Foley-Palmer injunc-
ton case came up for argument yesterday, before
Judge Barrett, at Supreme Court, Chambers. The
nature and scope of this injunction has been too
thoroughly ventilated in the papers to require
further extended elaboration. Its main features
were an njuncton-a temporary Injunction, OF
course-enjoining the various repositories OF the
city and county funds from paying to the City
Chamberlain any interest on such deposits, except
upon checks or warrants countersgned by the
Mayor and Comptroller, and also restraining the
City Chamberlain from directly or indirectly re-
ceivng OF dsposing OF any part OF this interest,
and from paying any salaries 10 the subordinates
