most charitable Interpretation that can be made oi
Mr.. Opdyke's sommersault is that he has not the
moral courage TO pursue the independent course
upOn which he started.
The opposition to the Charter among Republicans
amounts to nothing. So perfect is the party dlsc'
pline that not a single amendment or corrections

Prince ventured to make appeal in favor oil
Spring elections, but was summarily informed that
his opposition was considered factious' Mr. Prince
is entitled so far to some credit for independence IN
his efforts to amend the bi but there is no reason
to expect that ne will not vote with the majority
OF the speakers to-day, the only ones who have
shown any ability have been the opponents Of the
Charter. with the single exception of Mr. IleIs0n'
who made a severe attack on Mr. Jacobs for not
having voted uniformly against Mr.. Tweed's bllls'
This however, had no connection with the business
before the House. On the other hand, MessIs.
Jacobs, Blumenthal, Weed, Maguire, Prince, and
Beebe all made effective points against different
provisions. Mr.. Jacobs's speech was most atten-

He contrasted the unrestricted and dangerous
powers given to the Superintendent Of Police with
the merely ornamental functions Of the Mayor lie

menthal, though suffering seyerelyifrom an affection
of the throat made an unanswerable argument IN
favor of an honest charter for New-York demon
strating that the Republicans were violating the
pledges they had made previous to the election.
Whatever effect to-days proceedings may have
upon the minds of independent citizens they have
sufficiently brought out the fact that the majority
recognize Bliss ard Davenport as their masters, ana
that they may be counted on to do their bidding.

PROBABILITY
THE PRESIDENTS VIEWS ON THE sUBJEcT-So
NEED OF IMMEDIATE EAPPROPRTArIONS-PREs
SURE OF BUSINESS BEFORE BOTH HOUSES.
fBY TELEGRAPH 70 THE TRIBUSg.l
WASHINGTON, Feb. 20-ft is stated that the Presi.
dent remarked to members of Congress who waited
upon him. yesterday, at his room IN the Capitol that
in case more OF the appropriation blls should
fail for want Of time this session, and an extra se-
sion should thus become necessary he would not call
it until some time in the early part of June There
would be no necessity Of an earlier meeting he said.
because the appropriations for the present fiscal
year ran until the Goth Of June.
The President desires, doubtless that the extra
session. if there must be One shall not interfere with
his contemplated tour in the Southern States. Ii -
possible. also that there is political motive IN de-
laying the assembling Of the new Congress until the
present fever for Investigations shall have time to
subside little, ana until the oppressive heat Of a
Washington Summer makes an early adjournment
probable.
LEADING members Of both Houses begin 10 fear
that it viii be impossible to finish the Appropriation
bills before the 4th of March. The Senate has not
yet addressed itself with any earnestnc5s TO the
necessary work Of legislation, and the House Is con-
suming a great deal Of precious time in unimportant
business The reports Of the two Credit Mobller
Committees remain undisposed Of, and no one can
tell how much time they will take.
Besides. the proper disposition Of the Louisiana
case will take week; the Caldwell ease may oc-
cupy several DAYS in the Senate, and the Mormon
bill cannot be disposed of in less than two OF three
da by that body. The Pomeroy report and the
Morrill, Credit Mobilier report may require consid-
cradle time. while none Of the heavy Appropriation
bills have been considered The Senate still meets
at noon and has held no night sessions and it seems
as though the majority were willing TO have Con
gress called together again.

A HORSE STUNG BY BEEs.-One OF the sad
dest and strangest tragedies it has ever been
our duty to chronicle, was enacted at the house
of Mr.. Andrew jackson, worthy German
citizen who lives near Retreat, one day last
week.
1t appears that a horse had been turned
loose in Mr.. Jackson yard for the purpose, as
we suppose, of grazing. The horse CHANGED to
upset stand of bees which at once set to sting
ing the poor animal most furiously. The sharp
sting of the merciless bees soon made the horse
frantic, and seeking protection OF bis master,
he ran into the house among the members OF
the family, turned over the cradle in which lay
young child, the child being knocked nearly
across the room. The tragedy did not end
here. The horse next knocked down and
stamped to death little girl some eight or ten
years old, and then ran out into the yard and
dropped dead This is one of the strangest and
most distressing occurrences that ever happen
ed in our county. We tender the bereaved
parents our heartfelt sympathies. Franklin
(Ta.) Monitor.
STANCE STORY. 1--WE had in our hands yes,
terday," says the France, "a very curious pho
tograph, being the portrait of Russian who
had Just arrived in Paris, brought by the di-
rector of theatre at st. Petersburg. His
head is that of Scotch terrier, with a regular
snout, long silky hair, and pendant ears. As
to the rest of the body, it is that OF an ordinary
man. The voice is perfectly human he con-
verses we'll, and it is not devoid Of intelligence.
The monster is married and has child, which
be has brought with him, afflicted with the
same deformity. though in rather less mark
ed manner. The face is more natural, the
hair is scanty, and the ears or shorther than
those of the father. These two phenomena
were discovered in the environs Of Nijni-Nov-
gorod."
