Congress.

The following proceedings of Congress yes
terday are additional to those published in
the Gazette OF that date:
In the Senate a memorial was presented from
the Women's National Suffrage Association
praying for the establishment of woman su!-
frnge in the District of Columbia. The bill TO
provide for the appointment OF q commission to
investigate the alcoholic tr4ti was passed-syes
81, nays %, MessTs. Booth Of California, and
Withers Of Virginia, voting with the Republi-
Cans in favor Of the bill. Previous to its passage
it was amended so that the information obtained
may serve as q guide to the system of legislation
best fitted for the District of Columbia and the
Territorie. in reference to the question of reven.
ue from the manufacture and sale of alcoholic
and fermented liquors. The Committee on
Public Buildings was instructed to inquire
whether an railroads running into Washington
city obstructed the public avenues, streets and
grounds, under what right such distractions
existed, and what measures we're necessary to
secure the surrender of such rights, as also the
surrender of any depot buildings on public
squares. A bill for the protection Of settlers on
public lands was introduced and advocated by
several Western Senators, but pending discus
sion the Senate went into executive session.
In the House a resolution was adopted calling
on tie Secretary of War for copies Of the orders
and instructions under which General Meigs is
acting during his absence rom the country. An
adverse report from the banking committee was
presented and adopted on sundry bills repeating
the tell per cent tax on banks and banking asso-
Citations. The centennial appropriation bill was
called up, and a number Of speeches we're made
for and against it. Mr.. Lamar, of Mississippi,
among others, spoke %eloquently in favor OF the
bill, declaring it to be clearly constitutional,
and expressing the belief that il carried out the
spirit OF peace and Cancellation. The bill WAS
then put upon its passage and it passed by a
vote of l46 ayes to 1870 nays. The Virginia and
West Virginia delegations with the exception
of Mr.. St>wsll, Republican, from the former
Stste,) voted against the bill.

CINCINNATI, January 25.-A dispatch from
Chariestou, West Virginia, dated yesterday,
says the cases Of Dawson and Estep, charged
with the murder u Lee several days ago, were
called 10 court to-day. The prisoners coun-
sci consumed the d.y in arguing for change
of venue on account OF the popular ex-
citement against the prisoners. The Judge re-
versed his decision until to morrow. The
court house and yard were Fl led with people,
a majority of whom belong co Campbell's
Greek, where the murder was committed.
LATER.-About two hundred armed men ar
rived at IL p. m., on the steamer Judge Ba-
ker, and proceeded to the jail and took Daw
san and Estep out, and marched III u off
to the woods, where they will probably be
found hanging to a tree in the morning.
Dooley, who was killed by Hines early this
evening, was a colored man. Alter the mob
had carried off the Lee murdererS, the colored
~citizens, to the number Of fifty, went to the
Jail and demanded Hines, who was delivered
70 them, and they then followed the former
crowd to the woods with their prisoner, who
will probably meet the same fate.

The Montpelier.

The Richmood Dispatch says "Mr. Cog.
hill and Senator Smith. Conservative members
of the Legislature from Nelson. have advised
Judge Stevens, 10 view Of the trouble with
Delegate Fowle, to resigo. Judge Stevens de.
cliues TO do so. He says, as we are ioformed
by a friend of his, that if the Legislature wants
to get him out of of6c, they can inpeach him.
The money and bonds be claims to have
fairly wop. The friends OF Judge Stevens pro-
nouuce the accounts published 10 the A:leXan.
dria papers as false 10 not a few respects, and
assert that if an Investigation is had Judge
Stevens will not appear before the public 10
the bad light in which he at present stands.
There were ruuors yesterday that Judge
Guigon's grand jury would summon the gen.
tlemen to whom Messrs. Fowle and Stevens
related the particulars OF the transaction as
| witnesses 90 40 Indictment tor unlawful gam
ing. That will probably be done, but whether
before or after the Legislature has acted can
only be surniSed."
The Enquirer says: I'm the Senate, Mr..
| Smith. of Nelson, took steps looking t. the re-
| peal of the charter of the Montpelier Female
Humane Association. From its birth to the
present day nothing but misfortune has mark
ed its history. Its drawing was a fraud. and
the late unfortunate affair logloriouSIy 6nlshed
its financial career. By the way, newspapers
out Of the State 10 abiding to this, throw out
hints that there are others than those already
known to the public, connected with the scan
dal, when the truth is that Do member of the
Legislature except MIR. Fowle, and no State
official except the county judge of Nelson, was
either directly or remotely a party or an aces
sorry to the transaction which b|lghted a lite
that had been brave 10 war aud true 10 peace. :
As will be seen by reference to the legisla-
tive proceedings in to-day's G4zette, the char
ter for the Association has been repealed, aud
DOW that the whole disgraceful affair has come
to its legitimate end, it is hoped that full and
true history Of its entire existence will be pub
lished, 10 order that those whose Dam we're
connected With it, but whose skirts are clear of
its coutamiuatiug effect, may be thoroughly re.
lleved of the odium that is attached to the
whole concern. The statements that have
heretofore been published puTportiDg to give
the true history of the Association left those
Interested in its affairs just about as wise as
they were before such statements were printed.
All the Virginia delegation 10 the House OF
Representatives voted against the Centennial
appropriation, or gift Of the peoples money to
a private corporation, except Mr.. Stowell, who,
BY the way, is not looked upon as one of the
delegation
