WASHINGTON, Aug. 1.-The House Committee on
Ways and Means agreed this morning to report
Joint resolution fixing Monday next as the day OF
final adjournment. Now that the impeachment trial
has teen disposed of. there is no reason why Con-
gress should not finish mp lis business and get away
from Washington by that time. The differences be-
tween the two Houses ON the remaining appropna-
ton bills now so well understood that an agree
melt upon them can be as easily reached in two or
three days n in rs many weeks and the only thing
which can keep Congress here later than the 7th OF
August will be a desire the part of the majority OF
the members to prolong the session. Some OF the
Southern Democrats 1t is reported, are IN no hurry
to return home, but it is not positively known that
they will oppose the resolution Of final adjournment.
This resolution will probably be called up for action
tomorrow

THE A HILLS.
An Important Communication from Gen.
eral Sheridan.

eral Sheridan.
The following is an official copy of u
communication transmitted by General
Sheridan to the House Committee on
Military Affairs:
HEADQUARTERS MILITARY DIVISION OF
MISSOURI, CHICAGO, ILL.,, February %,
1S16.-The necessity for two military posts
In the Yellowstone has been apparent to me
for two years past, and l have recommend
ed their establishment in my annual report.
So strongly have l been convinced Of this
necessity that l have, without any expense
to the Government. made an examination
of the Yellowstone River, and selected the
points at which they should he built.
The Indian question in the Black Hills
must now be settled by the establishment of
the Indians on the Missouri River, and in
the accomplishment Of this purpose the two
posts mentioned will have to be located
one at or near the mouth Of the Big Horn
River, the other at or near the mouth OF
Tongue River. These posts can be supplied
by steamboat up the Yellowstone, and can
be constructed Of material found in the vi
cinity Of the points selected. | think | can
have them built for 500, 200 each. In other
words, l will try to build both for $500, 600.
instead Of the $500 900 mentioned in the bill.
The Black Hills country will probably be
covered with towns and villages during the
next five or six years. Its settlement will
cause the extension OF the Northern Pacific
Railroad on the south side OF the Yellow
stone, as far as the Galla.in Valley. in Mon
tana; and there will also be built another
railroad from North Platte Station, on the
Union Pacific Railroad, to the Black Hills.
am Of the belief that the largest deposits
OF gold are further west than where the
miners are now working. The headwaters
OF the Wind River are gol0-bearing; the
Big Horn Valley is d-bearing; Pow
der River Is gold-bearing; also, Clark's
Fork Of the Yellowstone. Besides this, the
Black Hills have abundance OF timber for
the treeless country south of them and west
OF the Missouri River.
The success Of all these interests depends
on the establishment OF the two posts
named. Military operations have now been
commenced against the hostile bands OF
Sioux by request of the Interior Depart
Encnt, and ) consider this appropriation so
necessary shst J especially request imme-
diate action on It.

AT a masquerade ball recently given
in AtlSuia, a young Nenedick person.
ated the devil. Chose who saw him in
costume say he WAS horrible to behold.
During the evening, at g time when the
gay maskers were having their best Joy,
this %personator was requested to go to
the door. There he found Il
from home 90 run Tor II doctor. liz the
excitement he forgot his impersonation,
and rushed to the doctors Office and
rang the bell. The ringing was Of such
terrific vehemence that it caused the
doctor TO get cut OF bed and rush in
negligc custom to the door. lie took
II sudden, hasty glance at the dis
turber OF his slumber, and then ran.
Being an important case, the young
mar rushed through the doorway and
commenced q vigorous search for the
fugitive physician. lie found him I'M
der the bed with a pistol in each hand.
1t took Il long time to convince the doc
tor that he wasn't really the parsonage
he represented.

a Lawyer Ot1twittcd.

The following incident, says a con-
tributor to Harper'S Drawer, occurred
in a Massachusetts town OF high repute
quite s number Of years ago. The town,
now a city, maintained n high school,
according to law. A teacher was en-
ployed, at a certain salary, by the year.
After o while his services were found not
satisfactory to the school committee, and
their chairman, n smooth spoken MEM
Der of the legal profession, was deputed
to perform the %ungracious task of in
forming the master of the state of the
case. After the settlement of prelimina-
ries, the point was reached and the pro-
priety of the masters resignation was
automatically and politely suggested.
The incumbent, if not qualified to teach
such a school, was a shrewd Yankee.
He expressed his willingness to leave SO
readily that the committeeman became
uncommonly gracious at the success of
his mission. '.But," said the worthy
pedagogue, "if my services are not sat-
isfactory here, they may be in some
other place; and as | must get my liv-
ing, l presume you will give me n
recommendation"
"Certainly," replied the committee
man, thinking only of relieving his own
town of an inefficient instructor, and ac-
cordingly drew up the paper on the
spot.
The master read it and found it high
ly satisfactory. "And now," said he,
glancing keenly at his employer, 'upon
this recommendation am SO well fitted
to teach, / will thank you to pay me the
rest OF my salary for the unexpired hall
year."
The lawyer was caught, and the mon
' ey was paid.

CURRENT TOPICS.

THE Connecticut Republican State
Convention, held at Hartford on the
goth, nominated the following ticket:
For Governor, Henry c. Robinson;
Lieut.. Governor, Frederick j. Kings
land; Secretary of Stale, Francis A.
Walker; Treasurer, jeremiah Olney;
Comptroller, Eli Curtis. The platform
favors a speedy return to specie pay
ments and approves the Resumption
act of the last Congress; eulogizes
Secretaries Bristow and Jewell for their
efficiency and fidelity, and compliments
President Grant, but declares against a
third term. A resolution was offered
presenting to the Republican National
Convention the name of Marshall
Jewell as q candidate for President
but after discussion, in which it was
held best to leave the question of pre-.
senting any name from Connecticut for
either place on the National ticket to
the delegates elected, the resolution was
tabled.

LYoN's testimony before the Con-
gressional Committee concerning the
notorious Emma Mine transactions has
brought out a half-dozen public protests
from gentlemen implicated by his evil
dence, all of whom concur in charac-
terizing his statements concerning them
as false and malicious, andin demanding
a hearing by the committee before judg-
ment is rendered. The committee has
signiied its willingness to giveal a fair
opportunity to be heard.

The House Committee on Judiciary
completed the Belknap articles of I'M
parchment on the 9th. They are twen-
ty in number, specifically stating the
various amounts received by him at
different times from Marsh. The ar
ticles are founded on the testi-
moay of that witness, but as he
has fled the country, several days
may elapse before the articles shall be
finally acted upon by the House and
presented to the Senate. The commit
tee will not act in haste, rs they wish to
present a ease that can be maintained
before the Senate. They charge Bel
KNAPP with having violated section 17o
of the Revised Statutes, the penalty for
which is imprisonment for not more
than two years and Il fine OF not less
than $4,000.

annie, and that Gen. Custer, with troops
from Fort Lincoln, to be joined by de-

reservation. The number of United
Statss troops in the expedition is about
two thousand.
