WASHINGTON.
A Ho. Scene.

Washington, Dec. 0.-The House
committee on expenditures under the
state department continued its investi-
cation of the consular affairs in China by
commencing the cross-examination of
G. Hiley Wells, who reiterated the
general purpose of his previous testi-
mony in regard to finding, when he
resumed charge of the office of consul
general at Shanghai, that the docu-
ments had been distracted and the
records mutilated. Wells added: The
docket had the appearance of butch
er's book" Whereupon Minister Sew
ard excitedly remarked: "That is
false" and Wells, with still greater
warmth, rejoined: "If you say so you
are liar" Seward was OH the point
of replying when the committee pre-
vented further colloquy. Wells then
informed the chairman that unless he
could be protected by the committee
from such insulting interruption, he
must protect himself. The cross-exam-
ination was then confined.

A Magician's Curious viii.

New York, Dec. 8. = The will of
William Henry Palmer, formerly
of Canterbury, England, better known
as Heller, the magician, was filed to-
day, dated New York, April 18th,
1873. He appoints his sister, Of Seven
Oaks, Kent, England, and directs her,
under the supervision of Hardee Hell
Ter, to destroy and beat out of shape all
secret apparatus and mechanical appar-
atus and mechanical devices appertain-
ing to his business, so that no one
may have the benefit of his brains after
his death. He leaves e125 year to
Hardee. e125 year to his wife Annie,
while she remains single, and provides
for the education of his daughters and
son. The balance goes to bis brother
Angelo, of Hamilton, Victoria, Aus
tralia.

"still Harping on My Daughter.

In the house of commons Whitbread
moved resolution diapproving the
conduct of the government with regard
to Afghanistan. He said the charge
was that the government had adopted
new policy against the advice of all
experienced officials, concealed it from
parliament and attempted to carry it
out by threats and unworthy means;
that having cause for complaint against
strong power, they fixed the quarrel
on weak one, and involved the coun-
try in war.
Stanhope, under secretary for India,
defended the government. He repeated
in substance the structures on the policy
a liberal government contained, in
Lord Cranbrock's dispatch, and in con-
clusion said the present government
did not desire power or annexation, but
were bound to provide for the security
of the frontier.

Sayler wanted to offer a resolution
asking the secretary of the treasury the
amount of gold and silver coin received
from the 31st of January to the 1st of
December, '78, the amount paid four
per cent. subscriptions, etc. Garfield
objected, as imposing a great deal of
extra labor on the department. The
resolution was not received.
Burchard offered resolution for

the 9th of January. Referred to the
committee ON ways and means.
Fort moved to suspend the rules and
adopt the resolution declaring that the

REPRESENTATIVE PAGE, Of Califor-
MIA, created no little excitement yester-
day in the house by introducing bill
providing that after March, 1879,
South Carolina should have but two
members of congress, owing to the
frauds and Intimidation practiced in
that state. This bill Is in pursuance Of
the authority granted in the fourteenth
amendment to the constitution. While
there is abundant ground for offering
the bill, both as to authority and cause,
there is no hope whatever of it passing
in the present house or the next house.
In the first place the democracy will
not vote away three of a membership,
and again they will not admit to ex-
tensive fraud or intimidation. Still.
the bill will have its political effect,
and that is what Mr.. Page is after.
