CONGRESSIONAL.


Washington, Aug. 7.-On motion of
Davis the vote by which the Senate in
definitely postponed the bill to reimburse
West Virginia for property destroyed
by federal troops during the late war
was reconsidered and the bill placed on
the calendar.
The joint resolution in reference to
the wreck of the monitor Tecumseh, in
Mobile Bay, and to provide for burial
of the remains Of persons carried down
when she sank, passed.
On motion Of Sherman the amend
ments of the House to the Senate bill
for the redemption of lands sold by the
United States for direct taxes was
agreed to and the bill passed.
Boutwell,, from the special commit
tees on Mississippi elections, submitted
a report. Bayard, of the same commit
tee, complained that the minority had
not known of the report until this morn
ing. He said he and Mcdonald would
present the other side, but the testi-
mony was not yet printed. After dis
cussion it was agreed that both reports
be made to-day and read tomorrow.
The House bill appropriating money
for the payment of claims reported al
lowed by the Southern claims commits
sion passed..
The House bill to repeal the resump-
tion day clause of the resumption bill Of
1875, and the House joint resolution to
provide for commission to inquire into
the change which has taken place in
the relative value Of gold and silver,
the cause thereof and the effect on
trade, were read and referred.
Frelinghuysen moved that the House
joint resolution preparing the 10th Con-
stitutional amendment prohibiting the
appropriation of any school fund for
the support of any sectarian school be
referred. to the judiciary committee.
He said the American people were in
earnest on this subject, but the amend
ment proposed didn't meet the case, as
Congress had no power to enforce the
amendment, provided some state made
such appropriation.
. salisbury said this was not the prop
er time to discuss this proper amend
ment. He thought the objections
raised against it were captious; let it be
amended and sent back to the House.
The House amendment and all substi-
tutes were referred to the committee on
judiciary, and the Senateresumed thee
sideration of unfinished business, being
the resolution of Morton to print IL, 900
extra copies of the Presidents message
concerning the Hamburg massacre.

Plan for Sutjecting the indians.
Washington, Aug. THE Secretary
Of War, General Sherman and theCom-
missioner of Indian Affairs have re-
Gently held consultation with the
President on the Indian question, and
have reached conclusion which, if put
into practice, viii make Sitting Bull
and his warriors surrender, and will
make another Indian war impossible.
They propose to prevent the Indians
now in the field from procuring further
supplies of ammunition. The stores at
all the trading posts and agencies will
be confiscated, and severe punishment
inflicted upon any one who furnishes
either hostile or agency Indians with
powder and ball. Through the friendly
Indians the authorities have recently
discovered attempts to supply Sitting
Bull with ammunition, and parties in
communication with the Indians have
beencaughtpurchasing large quantities.
But it is believed that all attempts have
been frustrated, and that the return of
the Indians from Sitting Bulls camp to
the agencies has not been for peace,
but for powder. Attempts will be made
to deprive all the agency Indians of
their arms, and prevent them from pro-
curing more. The Indians will be
given no rations until they surrender
their arms.
The Adjournment Outlook.
1t is the general opinion that Con-
gress will adjourn on Wednesday or
Thursday. The conference committee
on the Legislative, executive and judicial
appropriation bills viii soon come to an
agreement. The house will, it is said,
recede ultimately from its proposition to
transfer the Indian Bureau to the War
Department, SO that the only bill about
which there is continued trouble is the
consular and diplomatic, no effective
steps having yet been taken to reconcile
the difference between the two houses,
but if Congress were, apart from this,
ready to adjourn, there seems to be no
doubt that an accommodation would be
effected.

There are times when men become
disguised with this wicked world and
all the people in it, and when suicide is
contemplated. This deplcrable condi-
tion, is, however, never noticeable
among men who wear stylish, perfect
fitting clothes, and we say, therefore,
that If you viii drop In at Hellman's
and interview Carr, his tailor, you will
secure sure cure for the blues, by

All these will give strong testimony
as to Babcock's integrity and general
character. The trial is the sensation of
the hour. and is attracting large crowds
to the city. Gen. Babcock, In a conver-
sation yesterday, reiterated his declara-
tion OF innocence, and his confidence or
acquittal. He says he has ten lawyers
retained, comprising the best legal tai
ent in the country. The trial will inn
poverish him, and has, in great meas
ure, done SO, and he may have to ask Pc
cuniary assistance of his friends.
The chief thing he fears is the Jury.

the jury was overawed by public opinion.

whenever required he will come to St.

SATURDAYS HORROR.
Full Details of the Terrible Af-
fair-Latcst from the Injured
Funerals of the Killed. &c.


The calamity which occurred at Rob-
inson's Opera-house on Saturday after
noon has cast deep gloom over the
whole city, and is still the leading topic
of conversation. The 9th of February
will be memorable day in the annals
of our local history; day that will es-
pecially be remembered by those six
families who were so suddenly bereft OF
loved ones.
About o'clock the Opera-house was
packed from pit to dome. Over two
thousand people, and half of them happy
and eager children, had assembled to
witness the famous "Allegory Of the
Great Republic,' written principally by
j. w. Miller, Esq, OF the Cincinnati
Commercial, to be performed by the
children of the schools, under the direc.
tion OF MIR. j. W. Hager, for the benefit
Of the Relief Union. Upon this occasion
upward OF five hundred children were
upon the stage, waiting to take their
part In the entertainment.
From all that can be ascertained it
seems clear that the alarm OF "Fire',
which startled that vast concourse of
people was given in genWne fear, though
a less charitable theory has gained some
credence that the alarm was given by
pickpockets, who during the confusion
which would inevitably ensue could
more safely work their designs. Who
ever or whatever caused the alarm. it
