Criminal Court in the case of Belknap.
He felt it his duty to bring the matter
before the House in order that such action
as it might deem proper should be taken
in the matter. A long and exciting de-
bate followed, which ended in the adoption
Of resolution offered by Mr.. Lamar, de-
claring the mandate of the Court breach
of the privileges of the House, and direct
ing the members Of the committee to dis
regard such a mandate. After adopting
a resolution directing the Sergeant Arms
to bring f. F. Wolf, recusant witness,
before the Naval Committee, to the bar of
the House to answer for contempt, the
House adjourned.

of P. b. s. pinchback, claiming seat as

and, after long debate, the amendment
offered by Mr., Edmunds, that Pinehback
abe not admitted as Senator from Loui-
siana, was adopted by vote Of 32 yeas
to, 80 nays, Ave Republican Senator'S
Messrs. Christiancy Of Michigan, Ed
munds of Vermont, Morrill, Of Maine,
Morrill, Of Vermont, and Paddock of Ne
braska---voting with the Democrats in
the Affirmative. The resolution, as amen
ded, was then adopted by similar vote,
so the Senate settled pinchback's case by
refusing to seat him.

of the committee on appropriations, repor-
ted the legislative and executive appropri-

wistiully at the tempting array Of good
things spread out to their view. His name

Hers was Hannah. John was an English.
man, and was careless of his use of the let.
ter III hence it might be inferred that her
name was Anna, but it wasn't. He had
schooled himself to the pronunciation OF
the name, and none who heard their con-
versation could fail TO note the fact that he
wished it generally understood. They con-
versed thus:
"Now you know, John, that always did
love peanuts"
"Ies, my deah Ha-ha- hannah, well do /
remember the first night of hour hacquaint-
ance. Two ole quarts of the bIarsted fruit
you devoured."
DO you like oranges, John?"
81 dislike horanges, H-hannah."
"But, John, dear, buy one, Just for my
sake, won you ?"
of peanuts likewise also q pound of taffy.
She was delighted. To-day, we are advised,
that during the interval which has elapsed,
John and Hannah have sought the other
shores of the murky Missouri, and have be-
come one and inseparable.
Two hearts, with a single thought, now
beat "a one, and it has been decided that
their first-born shall be trained to ride on
the cars, and his name shall be called

4 Black Hitler Discharges a Pistol
Shot Into a Group Of Children,
For Whichhe was Furnished Lodgings
at the Station Last Night

Last night about eight O'Clock, a colored
woman, named Nancy Ponce, who lives in
a small tenement building on Second street
between Shawnee and Seneca, rushed into
the police station, and made complaint
that man had made an attempt to shoot
her sister, who is about fifteen years old
Upon inquirine into the case, it was ascer.
tanned, from her version Of the affair, tina,
two men, who had q couple Of covered wag-
ons in Gordon's iced yard, had attempted
to get into the house during the day, and,
upon being refused admittance, had hung
around the premises all afternoon. Jus;
before the shooting occurred the sister re-
ierred to, and some others, were playing
near the house, and one of the men, who
was near the wagons, made some
threats that he would shoot some
body, and afterwards pointed q navy
revolver toward the crowd of children, and
discharged ii, narrowly missing the girl,
whose name is Ellen Ponce, The ball going
between her and colored boy named Thos.
Mckee. The man was at once arrested BY
the police, who found him asleep in his
wagon. The story told by his companion
is very different from that of the woman
who made the complaint. He says his
name is Gallsger, and that of his compan-
ion, III. Allen. They had encamped in
Gordons feed yard, preparatory to start
inf for the Black Hills this morning, in
company with several Others from this city,
and that Allen while attempting to get into
his wagon accidentally discharged the Pis-
tol. s.
Allen was locked up on the charge Of
the peace, and will be examined
this morning.

NEW YORK, April Soon after the adj
journment of the advisory council, the
Rev. DIR. Leonard Bacon appealed to Prof.
Smythe and the committee of Andover
church to assume the responsibility OF pre-
senting charges against Beecher, and main
tanning them before the investigating COM
Prof. Smythe, in reply to Bacon's appeal,
has witten a long letter in which he ex-
plains why, in his judgment, Andover
church cannot take this step. He holds
that the commission in its origin, author
ship and proposed constitution fails to
meet the judicial requirements Of the case,
and he has ascertained that several i'm
portant witnesses will not testify before
that body, although they are willing to go
before a mutual council called by Andover
and Plymouth churches. He, therefore,
falls back upon the Andover letter "a offer
ing the only basis for thorough investiga-
