The House on Friday declined to consider
that motion the question of privilege, and
it was postponed until Monday. Then the

then there is no way of electing door

possible except by an ordinary report on the

would be INSTRUCTED at every possible stage.

That done, Gen. Buffers resolution to elect
the MANNED Union soldier Shields, must first
be voted upon. That can only be disposed

The Fas1adin0 BtIl.

WASHINGTON, April Tt is thought very
probable that Senator Thurman will secure
vote on his Pacific railway sinking fund
bill tomorrow night, as he will ask the SEN
ate to set it out. Theygeneral impression is
that it will be passed by the Senate with
some amendments. The first question will
be on the amendment offered by Senator
Blaine to the concluding section of the
judiciary committees bill in these words:
$50 long as the Central Pacific and Union
Pacific railway companies shall faithfully
comply with the provision of said acts Of
1862 and 1864, and Of this act relating
to payments to the United States on
account of bonds advanced, and of the
sinking fund to be established as aforesaid,
such compliance will be deemed and taken
as insufficient to meet the obligations of said
companies on account of such bonds prior
to maturity thereof.
It is believed this amendment will be
adopted. In offering it, Mr.. Blaine indicated
that in the event of its adoption, he would
support the judiciary committees bill. SEN
ator Sergeant has the floor at o'clock to-
morrow to finish his speech, and it is
expected he will be followed by Senators
Blaine, Edmunds and Conkling.

WASHINGTON, April Accounts from the
Texas border show that recently there has
been but few if any incursions from the
Mexican side. Members of Congress who
have the subject of our relations with Mexico
under consideration, say the delay of our
government in recognizing that of Mexico,
has produced an improved condition of af-
fairs on the border, but that that government
has not yet done what is required by our own
as prerequisite to recognition. One of the
most serious causes Of complaint is that our
citizens are not protected from the forced
loan, while British and French subjects re-
siding in Mexico are, it is said, not subject
ed to such illegal transactions.

It appears that for five years after its

by special direction Of Secretary Fessenden,

on the bureau has made its regular annual

A special despatch from Washington
says: "'rhs details Of an attack upon
a Republican meeting at Georgetown,
s. c., have just reached Washington.
g II seems that the Republicans had
called mass meeting to bs held at that
place, and were quietly conducting it.
At the same time In another part OF
the town, a large Democratic meeting
was organized, attended by two cavalry
companies and one Of infantry, dressed
In uniform aud armed with rifles,
pistols and sabres. These companies
almost immediately set themselves to
work to break mp the Republican meet
ing. Some of them went over to the
stand and made demonstrations against
one Of the speakers, which Immediately
produced general confusion. The armed
men then made combined attack on
the meeting, drove of the Republicans,
tore down the speakers stand, cut
down the flag staff and pulled off the
National colors, tore the flag in pieces
and trampled it under foot.
"Whsn Attorney General Yeomans,
Of South Carolina, was in Washington
last week, he gave the President and
Attorney General to understand that
these disturbances in that State have
been largely due to the infuerce Of
General Gary, who has made himself
the especial champion of the red shirt
element Of the State as the best
means of securing his own election to
the United States Senate. General
Yeomans represented that Governor
Hampton is himself opposed to any
such proceedings, and will probably
take occasion in public speech to de
nounce the violence and intimidation
which have recently been practiced.
"Governor Hampton is to speak at
Beaufort on Thursday evening; and the
occasion will be an excellent one for
any disclaimer he may wish to make in
regard to these outrages, although it
may be mentioned that it will come too
late TO counteract the effect Of the out
RACES already committed, and give OPP
portunity for fair vote in the State on
next Tuesday. Before Mr.. Swails was
driven from the State, he wrote to Gov
ernor Hampton recouDting the circum-
stances attending his illegal arrest by
the red-shirts, and the shooting of the
colored men who tried to help him. Mr..
Swails Is still in Washington, and has
not received any answer from Governor
Hampton. Private letters received this
evening from Columbia refer to the
answer as having been published in

Another AtArtling ROhbery Report
- II nsw York.
m. N,,, Vc.I - n.,.s ,x;v. sno,. mar

This New York papers give some par,
ticulars Of a startling robbery reported
to have been committed in that city at an
early hour Tuesday morning, in which
Mrs. Ogden, propristrrss of boarding
house, No. 299 Fifth avenue, was tn.
victim. According to these reports Mrs.
Ogden, who occupies the parlG floor
entirely to herself, retired to bed about
II O'Clock Monday night. Some time
after she was awakened by . noise in
her room, and on looking up saw two
men in her compartment, one Of whom
grasped her by the throat and covered
her face with 3 towel saturated with
chloroform, and while uncou scious the
rufians tied her hands together and
ransscked the .rsom. Mrs. Ogden was
found at 8 o'clock Tuesday Tying on
the bed with her hands tied and towel
stuffed into her mouth. The police were
called in and the doctor was summoned,
but, although the usual restoratives
were applied, she dill not recover her
senses until IL o'clock. She then dis
covered that thieves had carried off
$500 in money, two diamond rings,
which they took from her fingers, and
a valuable travelling cloak. Nvcvidence
could b. found that the rufkans had
forced an entrance tothe premises, and
it is supposed they got into the house
early in the evening and secreted them
selves in the closet until Mrs. Ogden
had retired. The New York Tunes gives
police captain As authority for saying
that DR.. Williams, who attended Mrs.
Ogden, reported that 'no chloroform
had been used" and says the "police
are credul0us, a. no signs Of fMcible
entry from tho outside could be disesE-
cred"
