The private calendar of the house, to which
Friday is always devoted, is blocked by a bill
at the head of it to rebuild William and Mary
College in Virginia, which was destroyed dur
ing the war 1t Is admitted that all its profess
sors and students were rebels, but Its resora-
ton is asked on the ground of its historical as.
sociations The bill causes an angry sectional
debate every time it comes up, and AS its pass
age would set II bad precedent, 1t ought to be
killed at once.
EDMUNDs's ELECTORAL BILL.
The bill of Senator Edmunds to regulate the
future counting of the electoral votes for presi-

England.

Parliament had "a weeks debate on the At
and commons respectively to censure the gov
eminent for involving the country in war
without consulting parliament, and having
cause for complaint against strong power
fixed the quarrel on a weak one" In the Lords
the government was sustained by vote of POI
to So, and in the house by 235 to 1875.
In spite of the apparent popularity of the
ministry in its war management a steady tide
of failure and distress sweeps over the land and
the government will soon have something else
to be anxious about than the petty raid against
the half civilized Afghans. Scarcely second
to the CONSERVATION caused by the failure OF
the Glasgow Bank was the flilurc Of the West
of England and South Of Wales Bank on Sat.
urday, with liabilities amounting to $4,000.

are liable without limit and all the billhOldcrs
and depositors will therefore be paid, hundreds
of firms and individuals are carried down by
the crash, and to the distress of the working
people is added the paralysis of the middle
and upper classes.
\ heavy afliction has fallen upon the royal
household of England in the death of the
Princess Alice, second daughter Of the Queen,
and married to Prince Louis Frederick Will

years of are, the mother OF six children, and Il
woman OF great amlability of character. All

that Of flower girl. She wore on Saturday
evening an embroidered black silk toilet fresh
from the hands OF a Partisan modiste.
At her throat flashed brooch OF sap

and diamonds CLEANED from her ears.
Upon her head was IN evening hat OF white
felt. adorned with curling white plumes. The
thronging OF visitors about her was so oppres-
siyo that Mrs. Solomon. the manager OF the
table. suggested that the songstress should sit
on the edge OF tho front Of the table. with n
chair M n barrier before her. Miss Hauk
acted upon the suggestion. md then tray OF

Miss Hauk handed him n tiny nosegay IIo

coin iingIed in Miss Hauk's tray. and then she
unconcernedly resumed tho conversation. Tho
Rngshman's compliments became fainter. md
ho bowed himself away. lilo returned soon

getting along. Admirably" Miss Hauk re-
PILED Then che added mIsIchjsvcuSSly w2n,i

The reporter saw. Inter in the evening. that
