Union League.

CHICAGO, May ga joint meeting Of the
Union League Association and of the National
Union League was held here to-day in re-
sponse to call from Hon. G. II. Harlow, of
Springfield, Grand Secretary of the Union
League. About fifty prominent persons were
present. Mr.. Harlow said the object of the
meeting was to discuss proposition to revive
the association which did such powerful work
for the Union during the late war, in order to
assist President Hayes in carrying out bis
Southern policy. He said the National Union
League was formed about four years ago under
the suppositon that the Union League of Amer
ica was dead. He was adverse to giving up
the parent organization, which was ready to
work vigorously if necessary. After several
speeches, committee OF five from each body
was appointed to consider whether the two
should unite and how.

rhe silver Question.

CHICAGO, May 3.-The Journals Washing
TON special says Some of the Treasury OH
c;als are a good deal disturbed over the action
taken by the Ohio and Illinois Legislatures
on making the silver coin of the United States
legal tender to any amount for debts puDllc
and private within those states. lhey 90
not believe this law constitutional, but
they are chiefly concerned because they re-
gard the action taken by the legislatures OF
these two states as indicative of change in
public sentiment, the existence OF which will
be felt at the extra session.
A prominent Treasury official who is very
decided in his opposition to the silver move
ment, said to-day, that he was very much
afraid its advocates would press action at the
extra session of Congress, and that they
would succeed in getting some measures
in direct antagonism to the policy laid down
by the Treasury Department. Some Eastern
Republican Senators are in correspondence
with leading Democratic Senators, endeavor-
ing to bring about an agreement not to con-
slider anything at the extra session except ap-
preparation bills. The Southern members OF
Congress now here assert that those from
their section of the country will insist upon
general business, and will not be simply con-
tent to pass appropriation bills.

VIII Not be Removed.

WASHINGTON, May 3.-Various parties, &C.
ting on the belief that the President intends
to remove Simon Wolff from the Office of
Register of Deeds for the District of Colum-
bia, are making persistent efforts forthe place.
Delegations have had interviews with the
President, including one from Alexandria,
Va, composed of colored men, in favor of a
candidate who had command Of the Con-
federate Black Horse cavalry, but several
months before the Presidential election es-
poused the Republican cause. It is said,
however, that the President has no intention
of displacing Wolff.

NEW YORK, May 3.-On motion of the

Judge Wallace yesterday granted an order
allowing the plaintiff forty days to make a
case and serve notice of motion for new
trial, and staying all proceedings on the part
of defendants until hearing and decision of
the motion, and also allowing plaintiff to

ton for new trial, and staying the entry of

of the said twenty days. If the decision

Sad Calamity.

MONTREAL, May "a terrible land slide
occurred on the bank of the river Veillet, a
tributary of the Batiscan parish,S Genevieve,
one hundred miles east of this city. The bank
is 80 feet high there. Over an acre of land
moved, burying saw and grist mill and a
house at the foot of the hill and turning the
course of the river. 1t is positively asserted
that ten persons were buried alive. The
bodies of Mrs Massicatti, her three children,
aged 3, Z and 10; the owner of the mill, and
MIR. Cloutier, the father Of Rev. Cloutier, of
Three Rivers, have been taken from the
ruins hardly recognizable.

FALL RIVER, (Mass.) May 3.-Four men
were buried by the caving in of cellar.
Owen Riley was killed and others fatally
hurt.
PATTERSON, IN. J.) May 3.-A carriage
containing five persons was struck by train
near Pompton, last evening. Three of the

CHICAGO, May 3.-A local passenger train
between Des Moines and Keokuk jumped

Approving the Policy.

WASHINGTON, May 2.-The Democratic
Jackson Association unanimously passed re-
solutions commendatory of the Presidents
policy. One speaker said the President did
as much to harmonize the country and to
promote its prosperity as could have been ex-
pected from Democratic President.
Gentlemen of both parties from New Or
leans speak enthusiastically of the good feel
ing and conduct of all, produced by the TO-
cent pacifcation. The Republicans say the
colored people are treated better than ever.

Injunction Granted.

LEAvENwoRTH, KS, May 3.-The Kansas
Central Railroad Co. National Gauge, to-day
obtained an injunction against the Pacific
Railroad, restraining the latter road from
electing officers, which was to have
token place to-day at Lawrence. The plain
tiffs claim that quarter of million dollars
of stock in the Kansas Pacific railroad issued
to the county of Leavenworth by the county
assigned to the Kansas Central is the only
legitimate stock ever issued. The injunction
commands the road to account for all lands,
bonds, and other property received for con-
structiOn.

In Contempt.

COLUMBIA, S. g.. April 25.-In the House
to-day the Democrats passed preamble and
resolutions declaring all the members of the
late MacKay House in contempt of the legal
House of Representatives, and referring their
credentials to the joint committee of Judici-
ary and elections to pass upon their title to
seats. The Republican members 6ercely con-
tested this action, holding that although the
members of the MacKay House had erred,
they were prima facia entitled to seats. The
committee will report tomorrow, and proba-
bly all but five or six members of the late
MacKay House will be admitted.
Helena weekly herald., 1877-05-10
Cause and Effect.

WASHINGTON, May 4.-The Department of
Justice will suffer much inconvenience by the
postponement of the extra session, as there
will be deficiency of at least $500, 900 by
the first of July to be provided for by Con-
gress. There is no money to pay the officers
of the navy for the months of April, May and
June. The amount required is about $780,
600, for which they will have to wait until
the extra session. The army officers are also
considerably embarrassed, as they cannot re-
ceive their pay after the first of July until
the army appropriation bills have passed.
Helena weekly herald., 1877-05-10
Crooked Whisky case.

CHICAGO, May 4.-The Journars Wash
ington special says: Secretary Sherman has
approved the opinion of Assistant Secretary
French adverse to the claim of Roelle, tanker
& Co., of Chicago, for release from civil
prosecution for about $500,000 of unpaid
whisky tax and penalties for violation of the
revenue laws. The plea that Secretary Bris-
tow and Bluford Wilson pronounced COM
plete immunity for the ''squealers' was not
deemed good. This is test case.

On the Purchase.

TRENTON, On. J.,) May 2.-The State Ga
sette states that it is reported on good author
ity that more than a week ago the Stevens
battery was purchased by an agent of the
Russian government, and that one contract
was signed at that time. 1t is further re-
ported that final agreement will be made
soon and that the vessel will be transferred to
the Russian government for 81, 10000

The Extra session Of Congress,

WASHINGTON, May 4.-The Cabinet as in
session nearly three hours to-day, and it was
decided to postpone the extra session of Con-
gress until the 18th of October next. This
change of the original programme was made
upon careful consideration of the general in
terests of the country, with almost unanimity.
The desire of the business community as well
as the members of Congress themselves, go
far as they could be consulted, was that there
should be no session of Congress this sum-
mer, and upon mature inquiry into all the
circumstances of the case, it was found that
without any immediate appropriation of
money the army could be clothed and sup
piled with all it's necessaries, and that only
one regular payday has to be passed. 1t twas
also considered that if Congress meets in
October it may remain in continual session
and finish its business before next summer,
so as to avoid the Inconvenience of the hot
season next year as we'll as this. A procla-
nation calling an extra session on October
10Th is to be issued without delay.
A member of the Cabinet says of the extra
session change in date, was not in any degree
caused by apprehension on the part of the
administration as to the consequences of an
early Congressional discussion of the Presi-
dents Southern policy.

Utah Troubles.


NEW YORK, May "A Times special from
Salt Lake says: The indignant feeling
aroused throughout the United States by the
testimony at John D. Lees trial, relative to
the Mountain Meadow massacre, has led the
Latter-Day- Saints to apprehend the arrest of
Brigham Young and othor heads of the
Church. who are accused of sanctioning the
commission of that horrible crime. They
have determined to resist any movement, and
to this end are secretly arming and drilling
throughout the Territory of Utah. Orders
have been privately issued by the military
commanders of the famous Nauvoo Legion,
requiring that dilapidated organization to be
in readiness for active service on the 21st of
the present month.
The Heralds Lalt Lake special say Fur
ther preparations for hostilities are particu-
larly active among the Southern settlements,
to which four boxes of breech loading rifles
were shipped last week from the Cooperative
store at Salt Lake City. Last night the meet
ing and drill of squads of Mormons was 60
ing on in Salt Lake City, and they reported
some of the proceedings conducted within
the enclosure in the immediate vicinity of the
Lion House. Young has boldly asserted
within the last few days that the Mormons
who had been driven so often and so far, will
drive no longer

Sustained Them.

TRENTON, IN. J.,) May 4.-The Presbytery
to-day unanimously sustained the charges of
heresy against the Rev. John Miller, and he
was suspended from the ministry of the Pres
byterian church until he will make manifest
his remuneration of his errors He holds that
the matter announced that it was moral and
intellectual impossibility to renounce his
views, and he appealed to the Synod.
