WASHINGTON, April 6.-The Cabs

among less important matters, the eff
fort of Governor Hampton to pacify
bis State by neEei prosecuting all spits

remembered that before the recent

powering the Governor to dismiss all

was convicted of raising vouchers

has been around hero since looking
In excellent health and spirits, al
though one of the chief reasons al
legged for his pardon was that he was

to the effect that Hampton had gone

of Senator Patterson, and this was

While it may bo trne that Governor
Hampton intends to resort to this ex.

the subject has been heard by prom>

any such step, and has in fact studi"

The ''Maipructice C0se."
IMinneapolis Tribune 26.b l

taAuuCoPo1lo A1lOuuC, LOUu.
It Is due to the truth to say that the infer
ence drawn from the article in the Pioneer
Press this morning, that several of our best
and most honored physicians, aud others
from St. Paul, operated upon a woman for
tumor when the enlargement was caused
by natural causes only, is without prop
er foundation. The woman was and is
carrying solid tumor weighing at least
forty pounds, measuring over four feet in
circumference, and she must necessarily die
IN short time from this occasion alone.
The operation was begun with view to it's
removal, bnt on the discovery that the adj
herence of the tune or was solid, and that too
much cutting was necessary to remove it,
the operation was suspended by unanimous
consent of all present, the incision was closed
up, and the woman is doing we'll. Whether
or not she was otherwise in an abnormal con-
ditlon has nothing to do with the case. We
venture the opinion that nothing was done
that should not have been done; that no
steps were taken that ought not to have been
taken, and that the physicians engaged in
laudable effort to prolong the life of
sufferer who must necessarily
have died without help Of
the kind, will be vindicated by any council
OF disinterested physicians in the country
who are worthy of their calling. If the pro-
fessional gentlemen who witnessed the opel
alton referred to are all quacks, Minneapolis
must be confessed to be sadly off for medical
advisers. They are certainly acknowledged
to have no superiors in their calling In this
section.

THE NATIONS CAPITAL.
Nothing Done in Congress--Who Shall Look
Aiter the Indiana Favorable Report ON
the Subsidy for Steamers to Brazil.
House NJ R.n.....,..,...

WASHINGTON, April 26.-Mr. Hubbell from
the committee on commerce, reported bill
exempting from enrolment and admeasure-
ment all vessels of that character engaged in
trade with contiguous foreign TERRITORY.
Passed.
The House then went into committee of the
whole, Mr.. Mills in the chair on the postotfice
appropriation bill.
Mr.. Banning offered an amendment dividing
the letter carriers into two classes. those who
have served over one year and those who have
not served one year; the former to receive
300 a year and the latter $500.
The amendment was ruled out on point of
order.
Mr.. Conner moved to increase the aggregate
amount appropriated for the pay of letter car
riers provided the amount received by any let
ter carrier shall not exceed the amount which
he now receives. He did not desire to increase
the pay of letter carriers, but wished the post
master-general to have money by which he
could furnish additional carriers to Chicago
and other cities. Amendment rejected.
The committee rose and reported the bill to
the House. The first amendment on which q
vote was taken was one increasing appropria-
tions for special agents from 100000 to
$l50,000.
Agreed to-yeas 1O2. nays 81.
The next vote was on the amendment pro-
vlding that the per diem pay Of special agents
shall Only be allowed when they are travelling
on business of the department..
Adopted.
The amendment providing that the compen-
sation OF postmasters of the fourth class shall
be based upon the number of stamps cancelled
instead OF the number sold at their Offices was
agreed tc, and after sevt ri other minor amend.
ments had been adopted the bill passed.
Mr.. Phillips, rising to question Of personal
privilege, said that in the speech delivered a
few nights ago by the gentleman from Mis-
sissippi referring to money, that gentle
man had stated that Northern members
had introduced bills appropriating 81, 1863, O0O,-
600, and that he (Phillips) had introduced an
appropriation of 81, 3UO,OO0,O00. (Laughter).
That was very respectable amount, but refer
ence to the bill would show that he asked for
an appropriation of s3OU0O. They could do
some remarkable things in Mississippi, espec-
tally in arithmetic in regard to election. kais-
ing $50 900 to 81 300, 900. O0O was remarkable
thing even for Mississippi. He presumed the
rest of the gentleman's figures were equally
accurate. The appropriation asked for in his
(Phillip's) bill was not even to be expend ed in
northern States.
Blr. Finley wanted to know if it was ques-
ton Of privilege for a member to make COM
parison between statements in speeches and
truth in regard to facts. If it was he would
take one-half of the speeches of the gentleman
on the other side and show they were not true.
MIR. Phillips said he had been attacked for
bringing in a bill of that character. appropri.
ating l,300,0UO,000. That MAS personal.

McLIN,s CONFESSION.
Hayes Afraid to Talk About II, but Devens
Affxcts to Disbelieve 1t.

NEW York, April ga special from
Philadelphia says that a number Of interrupts
have been made to induce Mr.. Hhyes and
the members of his cabinet who are here
with him to express some opinion upon tho
confession of McLin, regarding the Florida
returning board, but, notwithstanding most
strenuous efforts, no information could be
gained from any member of the Party. This
morning, however, Attorney General Deyens,
while in conversation with o gentleman, ex-
pressed his opinion somewhat fully in regard
to the matter. He stated, in substance, that
he and other members of the cabinet placed
no credit on the alleged confessions All
davits could be obtained in that part
OF the country to suit almost
any purpose. he regarded the whole thing
as emanating from disappointed politicians
and disafected Republicans for thespurpose
of fermenting discord in tue ranks of the
Republican party. Apart from the illegality
of attempting to reverse the decision of the
electoral commission, Gen. Devens thought
that to reopen the question at present when
the country is upon the eve of financial pros
perity and the resumption of specie pay
ment, would te nothing less than crime,
and should be denounced by all prudent men
irrespective of party.
WASHINGTON, April 26.-Representative
Bisbee said to-day that he gave McLin' s
statement to Representative Thornby to do
with as he pleased, and was willing it should
be published.

Yesterday was the silver wedding day of Rev.

They accordingly informally notified q few

A goodly number assembled, bringing with
them lao silver dollars, and silver water
pitchers, fruit dishes, DC, aggregating about
$500 in all. His Red Wing friends brought an

Minneapolis, made the presentation speech, to
which Dir. Brooks responded as WE'LL as his
deep emotion would permit.
Speeches we've also made by Rev. T. II. Cos
sard, presiding elder Of the st. Paul district,

miscellaneous,

WASHINGTON, April 26.-The House commit
tee on education and labor has agreed to report
favorably a resolution authorizing conference
between the United States, Great Britain and
China on the question Of Chinese immigration.
A bill creating the Territory of Oklohama mas
been agreed upon by the House committee.
The commissioner of internal revenue has
issued circular which says the compensation
OF gauger shall in no case exceed five dollars
during the month will be divided by the num-
Der OF days employed, and per diem fees will
be allowed for the daily average amount
gagged, subject to the limitation Of five dollars
per day.
The Senate committee on territories to-day
resumed the investigation of Indian territory
matters. The editor Of the Fort Smith Ne1O
Era testified that he prepared memorials pur-
porting to be expressive of the opinion of col,
ored men living in Choctaw and Chickasaw as
in favor of the territorial government project,
on account of alleged bad treatment by the In
dams. On cross-examination he admitted that
the colored people had not themselves asked
for the preparation or presentation of these
memorials. Other testimony was given tend
ing to show that the best of feeling prevails
between the Indians and negroes.
The Senate committee on post offices and post
roads have decided to recommend the passage
of the bill to aid the establishment of semi
monthly mail service between the United States
and Brazil by means of two lines of steam
ships alternately departing from New York and
New Orleans.
Gen. Gibson was before the House commit
tee on military affairs to-day, and gave his
opinion, by request, as to the transfer of the
Indian bureau from the interior to the war de-
partment. He was in favor of such transfer.
on the ground Of economy, and because it
would better protect the Indians and make
them amenable to authority. He was clso in
favor of returning to the old rule making every
commander of post ex officio an Indian agent.
He said an erroneous impression prevailed that
army officers sought to make war with Indians.
So far from this. there was no glory but great
deal of danger and hard work in war, and army
officers preferred peace.
