COURIER JOURNAL Washington special:
" Members and senators of both parties
are in q fog respecting the length of the
extra session. The administration and
the Republicans generally are scheming
for an early adjournment. The Presi-
dent, in his message to-day, narrowed
his recommendations to the passing Of
the usual army bill, without Increase,
and the deficiencies. The chances are
that the army appropriation bill will be
passed without Incorporating the restric
tons of the last bill on the executive,
and that the other recommendations Of
the President will be postponed, or lightly
treated. But the struggle over the ncmi-
nations in the senate, between the wings
of the Republican party, will be very
fierce and %protracted. The Democrats
will try to expedite action on the Lou
isiana cases. The chances are much
against a speedy adjournment"

shipped for London, where it was TO be
placed on exhibition, forever to remain
an object of curiosity. 1t IS a matter Of
profound regret to learn that this
great wonder of the world has
been lost at sea. The ship bring
ing it over encountered a tremendous
gale, lost six men, and lost the obelisk.
Whether the craft containing it went
down or vas left to drift away the dis
patches do not say, but our noon
dispatches state that it has been
recovered. The idea of bringing
away this historic fixture was a
strange one, to say the least. Yet the
almost successful attempt TO carry it
into effect "a great Western idea-illus-
trates the d~ecadence of the Oriental and
the vigor of the New World. The com.

Yankee sailors may be more successful
