FORTY-THIRD CONGRESS-.
WASHINGToN, March |.
SENATE.

The Vice President laid before the
Senate the credentials Cf j. 7. Chris
tiancy, senator elect from Michigan.
Read and placed on file.
The Force BiII In the Senate.
The Clerk of the House appeared Mt
1920 p. NJ. with the billt to provide against
the invasion of States, to prevent subver-
sion of their authority, and to maintain
the security of elections, known as the
force bill, and announced its passage by
the House.
Mr.. Edmunds asked shat the bill be
read the first time and referred 70 the
Committee on the Judiciary.
Mr. Hamilton. of Maryland, objected
to its reference.
After the expiration of an hour, under
rule oath, the Vice President overruled
the objection, and debate followed.
Mr.. Bayard appealed rrom the decision
of the Chair, but subsequently Withdrew
the appeal.
The bill was then read by its title.
McSsrs. Bayard Thurman, and Others
objected to its second reading to-day, and
it remains on the Vice Presidents table
till tomorrow.
Senate bills reported BY the commit
tee on Commerce during the morning
hour were passed, among which was the
bill to promote economy ana efficiency
in marine hospitals.
AT the expiration of the morning hour
Senate resumed consideration OF the tan
and tariff bill.
Mr.. Sherman opposed tn" tax and
tariff bill, and during his speech he said
he did not believe an advance of the tax
on whisky would yield any more to the
revenue of the government, but would
give bounty to the holders of whisky.
The very moment this bill WAS passed,
the dstillation Of whisky would be stop
ped, until the price reached 81 10 per
gallon. He favored granting authority
to the President and Secretary Of the
Treasury to suspend work on public
buildings or the expenditure ot any
appropriation when in their judgment
the public interest required it. Any
increase Of tobacco tax would be treat
ing the dealers badly. It's rcmonstraGces
were before sent against such increase
and it should be needed. Congress had
fixed this tax two years ago, and should
not interfere with il again, and now he
opposed the whole Internal Revenue
system, and had hoped that Congress at
the present session, would wipe out the
whole system of stamp tax &c, leaving
only Il tax on whisky and tobacco; no
favored IL tax on ten and coffee and said
if that tax had not been taken OF we
would have had no trouble now with
our finances.
Natious amendments were offered,
and considerable discussion on the bill
followed, and it was finally Land on the
table by vote Of yeas 80, nays %.

Mr. Beecher andh's friends Ia Tears

At tn" regular Friday night prayer
meeting in Plymouth Church, Mr..
Bcecher. in the course of his remarks
uttered the sentence, LET your light
shine wherever you are, and then made
short pause. After a deatblike still
ness in the church, he resumed as fol-
lows:
For thirty wears l have preached to
YOU, and have tried to eXpOund the
Word OF God 10 you. In my old aye,
my Father has seen best TO atilict me
witha severe and prolonged trial. | am
not half 50 anxious about the result of
this trial as that | shall live during its
continuance and after its termination,
and prav that my example may bethat
of Il trusting, patient follower OF Christ
Jesus; and l pray that your many
PRAYERS NAV be answered, simply that |
NAV be known to men as Christian.
The New York Sun in noticing this
meeting says:
MIR. BcecherS face was wet with tears
a> he closed his talk, and there was not a
dry eve in the house. Mr.. Shcarman,
one OF the lawyers, on one side of :he pull
pit, was in tears. and Mr.. Hill, OF the
counsel on the other side, WAS weeping.
Mr. Beccher prayed, and there was sob
hing aloud over the congregation aS tho
rich volume of sorrow-tinged words
poured from his lips. Tears rolled down
his face, and they seemed TO enter into
his voice. His prayer was, Lord we
know that We can bear thy dispensations.
We only ask thy will be done

talking with New England Republican

all the time been deceived in regard to the
las, election in louisiana He said that
Packard had telcEraphed him that the
Republicans had carried New Orleans

LegisIa,ing for IreliI d.

LONDON. March lin the House Of
Commons this evening, Sir NJ. :. Bench,
Chief Secretary for Ireland, introduced i
bill lessening the penalties for the unlaw-
ful posse ssion of arms in Ireland, and
repeating the law which authorizes the
closing OF public houses and the arresting
of persons found out of doors at night in
proclaimed districts, and the removing of
the restrictions on newspapers. The
Chief Secretary said ;hat the Govern
meut intended 10 re-enuct laws against
"rbbonism" in West Meath
as it had been assured that
the ribbon conspiracy exists
as strong AS ever. He pointed to the
fact that John Mitchell was elected TO
Parliament because he had declared that
he would never consent to be at peace
with England. lie alluded to the return
of numerous emigrants from America,
who had acquired western vices and for
gotten these just virtues; and these were
reasons for not removing wholly, the re-
strictioEs Of fire arms i'll Ireland.
The Marquis Of Harrington, Newlebi-
al and Coden supported the bill which
passed its first reading.
