The nystfck Krewe-Darwin's De.
scent of Man.
NEW ORLEANS, Feb. 25.-The Mardi
Gras festivities and the procession of the
King ofthe Carnival, which commenced
moving at one o'clock, was very large,
comprising among the members three full
battalions, one of Egyptians, one of Arabs,
the Kings Own and another of
Msmalukes, the Royal Navy consist
ing of yachts of the Crescent City,
and the Yacht Club mounted on
trucks. A tremendous crowd of miscellane-
GUS maskeTs with all kinds of devices and
tricks of the Guild concluded the process
sion. 1t was two hours passing. The
streets were literally jammed with people
from all parts of the country, some on foot,
some in vehicles. The carnival procession
was grand success, and will doubtless be
repeated on a still larger scale next year.
The Mystick Krewe of Comus paraded
in the evening. 1t was the finest display
they had ever yet given, consisting Of more
than 200 figures, all in the most elaborate
and artistic costumes. The subject was
Darwin's origin of species and the missing
links in the chain of natural selection.
The pageant began with the zoophytes,
(sponge) and ended with the Gorilla. The
representations were admirable, having
been prepared in Europe at large expense.
All along the line of march the balconies
and fronts were brilliantly lighted and deco
rated. st. Charles Hotel and the City Hall
were splendidly Illuminated, as also many
of the other principal buildings including
the newspaper offices.
Both the Carnival and Mystick Krewe
people gave large balls tonight, the former
at Exposition Hall, the latter at the Varie-
ties Theatre. The invitations were distrib-
uted mysteriously as usual.
The proprietor of the St. Charles hotel
chartered several large river steamers TO
furnish sleeping apartments for their guests.
There are over fifty river steamers at the
levee between St. Louis and Girod street.
Thirty are advertised to leave tomorrow.

variety Of propositions and suggestions The
House at 5 o'clock took recess till halfpsst
], III, evening session to be for debate only
and no business whatever to be transacted.
Evening Session
Mr.. Wakeman argued against the resolu-
ton, and declared be was not even salts
fed that the body of the offence had been
committed.
Mr.. McCrory made argument in support
of the resolution. A good deal had been
said in this debate of yielding to popular
clsmor. He did not regard this as q mat
ter Of popular clamor. The people were
excited because they saw corruption in
high places and legislative bodies and on
the judicial bench, and they felt that If cor
ruption got into Congress and undertook to
shape and control legislation, their liberties
would be in danger.
MIR. Comingo made argument against the
resolution.
Mr.. Hawley said tho report of the Select
Committee deserved the support Of the
House.
Mr.. Cox reminded Mr.. Hawley thar dur
ing the last campaign lie had declared 10
public that there was no ownership Of
Credit MobJlier stock On the part of Senator
Wilson, while the evidence now showed
there bad been. BE would like to know
how bis indignant friend from Connecticut
came to make that statement.
Mr.. Hawley said that whatever he might
think of the purpose of the question he
would answer it squarely. He had risen
on the stage in Hartford after haitian hours
conversation with Senator Wilson, and be
had declared that the gentleman to the best
of his belief and knowledge was innocent
of any complication whatever directly or
indirectly. In the first flush of his indigna-
ton he had defed the world to prove that
he was so complicated. If the evidence
since showed that he was mistaken, it was
not his fault. He lad said what he believed.
Mr.. Cox-All right.
Mr.. Hawley stated in conclusion that he
would vote for the expulsion of Ames, and
would vote as he thought proper on the
next resolution.
Mr.. Blair made legal argument against
the resolutions.
Mr.. Richie described himself as
Begfrt by Doubts
on all the points involved.
Mr.. Conger assailed the committee itself
for having outstepped its power and lost
sight of its duties. The committee, he said
had been instructed simply to inquire Whe-
Their any member of the House had been
bribed, and,
Most Lame and JmpOtent Conclusion,
the committee had reported that old Cakes
Ames by some certain process was guilty of
an intent to bride somebody, the commit
tee did not know W no.
