WASHINGTON D. c., June %, lo'o'


NEWSPAPERS throughout the country
speak of the last hours OF the last SECS,
sion of Congress as disorderly, and
apply even stronger terms. Inc SEES
sion was not more disorderly than is
nsual, That very fair paper, the Bal
timro Sun, says, on this point, that
"tbere was less intoxicaton exhibited
than has heretofore been the case 10
the closing hours off session" Ana
this is undoubtedly time. There was
confusion, and several Representa-
tives-all Republicans-were bolster
ous in their disorder, but on the
whole the House did we'll, and the
Senate too. ,.
The necessity of earlier action on
appropriation bills was clearly shown,
as numerous jobs crept at the heel OF
the session which would have been
summarily killed if they had appear
ed earlier. They were passed as
amendments to the appropriation,
bills. and unwilling members voted
for them rather than kill the bills
themselves or delay adjournment.
Speaker Randall, received a liberal
share of curses and blessings by his
determined and successful efforts t"
prevent the passage of numerous sub
sidy bills and other expensive meas.
ures. Enmity to him on that account
will probably disappear 10 a great
measure in time, and should he De
reelected to the House and desire
again to be Speaker, the great abll
ity he displayed throughout the ses'
sion will make him q formidable can
didate.
l do not wish to intrude advice
upon readers, but the breaking up OF
the session seems a proper time to re-
peat what is a common remark here
that an old member is worth mor'
than a new one to the country, II,
constituents and his party. The pol
icy of renominating men who haS
proved honest and efficient is a YER
wise one. The Republican minorlt,
$, tho House is strong because IT
and very many of its ran
10 have been long in Congress
now all the ways. The Demo
cratic party will be wise If it follow
Republican tactics in this respect.
The recent Democratic State Cor
vention in Maine and Vermont pre-
scented admirable platforms. A YER
intelligent gentleman recently fro'
the former State says there will prot
ably be no election of Governor q
the people, and that even in the Lei
islature, to which the election goes

YELLOW JACK.

ARRIVAL OF THE TOwBOAT JOHN PORTER
No FEVER ON BOARD-sTATEMENT OF THE
| CAPTAIN AND PILOT CRANE.
During the past week the most sensation
al runors about yellow fever on board the
towboat John Porter has been current in
Cairo. She was represented as a charnel house
1t was said almost every one Of her crew
was dead or dying. Crane and Mcbride, her
pilot had, it was said, died and been dumped
into the river. Her arrival was dreaded by
the timid, and preparations were made by
Mayor Winter and the Board of Health to
quarantine her. Yesterday afternoon Duke
Ensnimger's spy-glass distinguished her
rounding the Point, and Mayor Winter
Quarantine Officer Dunning and Health
Officer Summerwcll boarded the tug Cache
and steamed down the river to head her
off. About five miles below the city these
officers boarded the supposed to be infected
steamboat, and found her in perfect sani-
tary condition with all on board enjoying
excellent health. She was therefore per
mitted to steam up to the city and land at
the wharf. Last night she went on to Gin
cnnati.
The captain says he lost two men below
| Nicksburg and one of his engineers above
that city, but that neither of them had the
yellow fever He thinks they were over
come by the heat.
Mr.. Barney Crane, who was one Of the
pilots on the Porter, in an interview with u
BULLETIN reporter last evening, said that
when the boat left New Orleans all on board
were well, but that little distance below
Vicksburg a man named Murphy and
another man whose name had slipped his
memory were taken sick, and were sent to
the hospital on arriving at Nicksburg. The
Porter continued on up the river about fifty
miles, when anothcryoung man, an engineer,
was taken sick and died. The boat re-
turned to Vicksburg and left the remains
there. She then came on north and nc
sickness has occurred on her since. Mr.
Crane says there is no doubt in his mind
that Murphy, who died in the hospital at
Vicksburg, and the other man who was sent
there with him, and who is now on fair
way to recovery, had the yellow fever The
young man who died above that city, he
says, was victim of the heat. The
boat, he says, is now perfectly
free from disease. Mr.. Crane
was greatly amused at the stories he had
heard, since arriving home yesterday, of the
terrible havoc the dread disease was caus.
ing on the Porter, and expressed his opin-
ion bluntly OF the people who would start
such falsehoods to brighten folks.

THE Sun on A STRIKE,
OPPRESSIVE WEATHER YESTERDAY - FOUR
SERIOUS suNsTRoKEs


Although the thermometer yesterday did
not indicate as great degree of heat as we
experienced during the heated spell, the
weather was more oppressive than it has
been at any time during the season. The
whole city broke into general complaint
against the fierceness of the suns rays, and
several cases of sunstroke were re-
ported. About ) o'clock in the evening
Mr.. w. F. Shuckcrs was Frustrated by the
heat and for an hour his life was in great
danger. He fell in the lower hall of THE
BULLETIN building, and luckily received
prompt attention. DR., Smith was immedi-
ately called and succeeded in
giving the sufferer relief. He was
removed to his residence 1T II o'clock. Mr..
Thomas Nally of THE BULLETIN was over
come while in the office of the late DIR.
Thompson, over whose body he had learned
an inquest would be held, at about O'Clock
last night. He was taken to Barclay Bros.
Levee drug store and there received atten-
ton that soon restored him to conscious
ness. He was afterwards removed 10 THE
BULLETIN Office and was prescribed for by
Dr. Dunning. At midnight he was ont
of danger, and will no doubt be
able to attend to his ordinary duties in a
few days. Thomas Clark, negro black
smith, had severe attack during the after
noon and late last night his death was
momentarily expected. We learn also that
Mr.. Whitcamp, an old and well-known
citizen, was Frustrated last night and was
in dangerous condition when last heard
from.
