that there is firm doing business in San

The carcasses are conveyed to their manu-

BIG THING IN THE Book TRADr.-The
biggest thing in the book trade is the sale
Of Sankey's Gospel Songs. Tie rush for

TAR and near, is something unprecedented.
Every Sunday School and every PRAYER
meeting have them or is bound to have
them. The publishers, Messrs. Bigelow &
Main, of New York Informs Us that since
the opening of the Moody and Sankey cam
pagn-in Brooklyn, October 22-thcv have
sold nearly 100000 copies Of the book. and
the demand goes on increasing. There is
no doubt that by the time the campaign is
completed according to programmes. for the
year, the sale will have amounted to
millions, and the royalty fund in the hands
OF Stuart. Dodge & Co., for benevolent pur-
poses will be hundreds of thousands All
this royalty fund was tho lcgimate property

The bequests made by Timothy Kriy, Of
Cincinnati, who has left property valued at
more than 81 100000, were so eccentric that
Dom Piatt and General Banning, two OF his
heirs, took steps to prevent the probate of
the will. II appears that Kirby left large
legacy to "a notorious woman who claims TO
have been his wife that he placed five ille-
gitimate children on an equal footing with
his legitimate children, and made the latter
trustees of the former for period of fifteen
years, and that he |" frittered away the rest
of his estate" A physician who was ac-
quainted with Kirby testified in Court yes
terday that he was a monomaniac, etc. 1t
is supposed the Court will set the will aside.

That was another blunder of the Demo.

under the lead of Randall, they refused TO

ton OF Mr.. Whites amnesty bill. lie so
proposed the measure as to force direct
vote ON the exclusion of jefferson Davis
from amnesty, and the Democratic leaders
shivered over their own broken lines with
just sufficient power left to prevent a two
thirds voice. 1t was sheer cowardice. and
cowardlce ever blunders. Don't they see
that they must encounter the bugaboo jeff
Davis by any path they seek to attain am
nesty? If they had but courage to meet
the issue there would be nothing vital in it
to meet, and every day they shrink away
from the question they are responsible for
keeping alive the embers of discord, and
are doing their level best to forfeit the con.
hdence of the whole country. At first
Blaine was alone in the effort to magnetic
the marrowless bones of jeff Davis into
lie, but now the Democratic leaders are
magnliylng his Importance by childish
refusal to accept direct vote on his exclu

Washington, Feb. 11.-SENATE.-
Withers reported a bill granting a

l.. Thomas. Placed on calendar.
Boutwell, introduced a bill to correct
errors and supply omissions in
the Revised Statutes. Referred.
Frelinghuysen reported bill relating
to the transportation of animals. 1t is,
with some amendments, the same
measure introduced by that Senator
at the beginning fthe present session.
The only amendments of consequence
are the following That the length of
time that animals may be confined
without unloading, is limited to "a
hours, instead of 2S, and they must
remain unloadad for rest, water and
feeding, at least seven, instead of five
consecutive hours, and n new section
is added providing that the number
of hours that animals are confined,
while being transported through
Canada, must be taken into account
by all railroads or lines of vessels con-
Meeting with Canadian lines, as d part
of The u consecutive hours a. above
limited. Bayard called up the con-
current resolution providing for the
count of the vote for president and
vice-president, but no vote was
reached on it. The Senate then re-
sumed the consideration of the Cen
tennial appropriation bill, which after
the rejection of several amendments,
and some debate, passed, and the
Senate adjourned until Monday.
HoCsE.-A half hours discussion
on committee rooms developed the
fact that the number of these rooms
in the capitol Is entirely inadequate,
but no action was taken on the matter,
and the House went into committee of
the Whole on the consular and diplo-
matte appropriation bill. A number
of amendments were adopted and the
committee rose and reported the bill to
the House, when it was passed by u
vote of 19l to 2. AS amended, it appro-
PIRATES s9l4,000, being reduction
from the appropriation of the last
session of S4T0,000. House adjourned
until Monday.
