Kesly'S Motor Heard From.

There is now on exhibition in a show win
dow on Chestnut street, Philadelphia, the
giant gauge constructed for the purpose of
registering Mr.. Keely's "power." + stands
about four feet and half high, and registers
$4,000 pounds to the square inch, being the
largest gauge in existence. 1t is beautifully
ornamented and plated with silver. It cost
$1,000 $500 of which was required to be paid
before work was commenced on it. 1t is
stated thai the government has just ordered
similar one to be constructed for its use.
The largest government gauge now is 10000
pounds to the square inch.
Mr.. Keely is more elevated in spirits than
ever. He goes to his shop almost every
night, besides his work during the day, and
there runs aud watches his machine, i. g., the
old apparatus Sometimes he mas one or two
of the company with him. The machine is
kept running until 10 or II o'clock, when it
is stopped, aud all retire. All this time it
has been running with the same water, the
vapor being constantly dissipated and repro
duced.
All connected with the company or the
motor have been more or less disappointed by
the delay. But their hopes have frightened
greatly the last week or two, as they believe
that the time is not far distant when the won
der of the nineteenth century will be put
into successful operation. -heter Ocean.

WASHINGTON.

WASHINGTON. Jan. 2S.-On the proposition
ct the Committee on Privileges and Elections
to recognize the Kellogg Government, the
vote stood;
Ieas-Morton, Logan, Anthony, Mitchell.
Nays-Alcorn, Hamilton, Salisbury.
Acknowledgements, Woodleigh.
Mr.. Acorn stated in the committee that il
the Senate recognized the Kellogg aeern-
ment he should vote to admit Pinchback
The dead lock in the House continues, neither
side showing any signs of yielding.
The probability is, however, that an ad-
lournment will soon take place, and that the
Republicans viii fall back upon a renewed
attempt to change the rules next Monday, by
adopting new rule applicable only to the
session, prohibiting the Speaker from enter
tanning dilatory motions
With that rule established, the passage of
the Civil Rights bill would be plain sailing.
Solicitor Bluford, of the Treasury, pro-
nounces the Fort Sugg, Robinson county,
Tennessee, case a fraud Civil and criminal
proceedings have been instituted.
Others are, but Gov. Hebert is not despond-
ent, in regard to obtaining limited appro-
priatlons for closing the crevasse. At all
events he has not ceased his opportunities
Gen. Morey, just from the House, says all
parties are determined. Conkling, while
generally applauding Sheridan, said he (Sher--
ldan) suggested impossible measures.

The Speaker declares that on Monday un-

HOME AGAIN.-The champion Horns. Last
evening Mississippi Fire Co. No. turned
out in full force to receive from Crescent "a
her long lost emblems of championship. On
the route to the engine-house of Crescent "a,
they serenaded one of their exempt members,
L. W. Bothick, Esq; they then continued
their route. Upon arriving at 2fs house they
adjourned to the meeting room of the COM
pany, where the foreman of "a, Mr. H.
Meister, made the presentation speech, which
was responded to by Mr.. E. A. Burke, the
late President of Mississippi 2.
Mr. Camedon, the President of Mississippi
2, also responded in few appropriate words,
and cordially invited the members to return
with his company to the old home OF the
horns, where they had their spirits enlivened
with delightful collation., and all seemed to
partake of the viands with gusto. We return
thanks 70 delightful serenads.

A CONFERENCE,
The Congressional Committee meet
number of Representative
Conservatives.
A Farley and What Came of it.

! Quite stir was created last evening in DO
lltical circles by rumor which quietly grew
into an assured fact, that certain Represe nta
tive members OF the Conservative Legislature
had been invited to confer with members O.
the Congressional Committee.
| Speculation was rife as to what it meant
and 1t was shrewdly suspected that the com.
mittee had determined to submit some plan
OF adJustment-some proposition the accept.
ance of which would, in their opinion al
least, lead to practicable solution of the pre-
sent political enigma. What the plan could
be it was quite impossible to conjecture, mas
much as it was known that the Democrats
and Conservatives would not accede to any
proposition which did not include the
recognition Of the House of Representatives
as constituted when it was dispersed by the
soldiers Of Sheridan and Emory, and it was
scarcely regarded as among the probabilities
that the committee had concluded to accept
the role of arbitrators
We can conceive of no arrangement that
did net recognize the Witt House, that
did not contemplate the immediate
withdrawal of the military from
proximity to the State House, and the re-
moval of the barbados. We are bound to
demand that we be placed where we were
when the strong arm Of the military dis
persed the legal House, and that ali show of
force be dispensed with. Nothing short of
J, 10,
of this can be entertained by our representa-
tives.
The object of the conference was kept
profound secret, and quite a number of per-
sons congregated in the rotunda of the St
Charles awaiting the result.
About u o'clock, the conference ended and
the gentlemen who were present declined to
give any definite information concerning it,
but intimate that the interview may possibly
result in something practicable.
The committee. it is supposed, will now
confer with prominent Republicans, in order
to ascertain their views and demands.
That the committee should have made ad-
vances is regarded as an intimation that they
will, under certain circumstances, consent to
act as arbitrators but we fancy they will
ind their progress greatly impeded by the !
demands of Kellogg and his supporters.
We shall hail with delight solution which |
hall give US the fruits Of the victory won at |
he polls. A solution that involves conpro-
Mise will be great mistake, and only plunge |
is into greater evils-if that be possible-in
he future. We must insist upon our rights,
nothing less, nothing more; and among those
lights is the liberty of governing ourselves,
rec from the terrorism Of the bayonet.

Evening Session.
Blunf's Testimony Continued.

The witness was questioned by Mr. Hoa,
regarding public schools in the parish OF
Natchitoches, and replied that the schools fol
the two races are separate, and were kept up
until quite recently. They were not estab-
lished as separate schools Colored children
are more regular in their attendance at the
schools than the white.
To Mr.. Frye-The eolored people would
not be safe under the Democrats in that
parish. Some colored men voted the Demo-
cratic ticket; many promised to vote it, who
afterwards changed their tickets for Repub-
lican tickets: knows of no Black League.
Does not think it would have been safe even
for Democrat to have gone through the par
ish during the campaign, and demonstrated
with the people relative to their acts. Never

IMPROVEMENT OF THE LEvEE. reference
to another column it will be seen that Admin
istrator Burke has invited all owners Of bal
last along the levee front to meet him at his
Office, City Hall, at 6 o'clock this evening.
The object of Major Burke in calling the
meeting is to effect, if possible, some arrange.
ment whereby he can obtain possession of the
large amount of ballast which loads the city
wharves. Major Burke intends using the
ballast to improve the condition Of the levee.
A number Of the stevedores owning ballast
have already donated it for the purpose speci-
fed, and when a sufficient amount is obtained
work will commence.

ANOTHER BIT OF SCANDAL.
Betrayal Of Two Fair Maidens.
How Don Juan Disturbed Certain Social
Circles.

Some few weeks ago young man about
twenty-one years of age arrived in New Or
leans from Galveston, Texas, and took up his
lodgings at No. - Common street, where
| there were furnished rooms to rent. The lady
Of the house has two beautiful daughters,
aged respectively fourteen and eighteen years.
The young Don Juan, being of rather u
susceptible nature, made several overtures of
love and affection to the younger of the two
girls.
After few weeks stay in the house, the
Don, after having betrayed the young girl
disappeared, taking with him his victim to
house on the corner of Burgundy and Bien-
vile streets, where they took rooms, remain
ing away for near two days. When they re-
turned, the mother was, of course, most in
dignant at the turn that affairs had taken.
But the modern Don Juan promised mar
riage as
PREPARATION FOR THE SIN.
So all arrangements being made the we'd
ding was fixed for Tuesday night, the 10Th
inst. The house was lighted up for the oc-
casion and about seventy-fve guests were
present to witness the nuptials of the two
young hopefuls.
Bridesmaids, groomsmen and all requisite
parties were present, and upon table in the
middle of the parlor were laid the various
tokens of esteem sent the happy couple by
their friends. But as luck would have it,
the bridegroom failed to put in an appear
ance until late hour, when he pleaded ex-
IRENE indisposition mot to marry, therefore
the wedding was postponed until last night
the 2Sth inst. But in the meantime. Don
Juan, not believing in the old adage of love

SUDDENLY DISAPPEARED
The CONSERVATION among the young girls
friends was more than can be expressed. The
mother was almost frantic. She searched in
all parts Of the city for the missing Don, but
all search was in vain; he had, like the Arab,
folded his tent and silently stole away, but
left his baggage behind. The young girl who
thought that the young man Of her affections
had left but poor apology for himself,
grieved as only woman can grieve. But yet
she thought with womans constancy that
some terrible accident could be the only cause
of his detention
Alas, how frail are human hopes. She
found that the very night upon which she
was to be married, the Don had visited several
