This evening Camilla Urso appears a. the
Academy of Music in one of her superb
concerts, and full house will greet her ap-
pearance. We have not the space to enter
into detailed notice of the concert, and
Can only say that the troupe accompanying
her is an unusually good one. Miss Wandes-
forde possesses fine soprano voice of rare
purity and culture. Mr.. Tower is worry
pleasing and cultivated tenor, aud Mr..
Kudolphsen is a baritone with a fine voice
and excellent style. The piano solos by Mr..
Scherek are also very good.

eff, under the DISTINGUISHING election laws
of Rhode Island, the Republicans of that
State find that they have elected man to
the Office of Governor who not only is ineli-
gible for that place, but who has not even tie
privilege of casting ballot himself, it will
be case of just retribution. The point
made is that Mr.. Van Zandt is not registry
voter, but votes on his wife's property, and
that, being without issue, he is not entitled
to the franchise on that account, according
to the supreme court of Rhode Island. MOI
being qualified voter, he is ineligible to

BUSINESS BEFORE CONGRESS.

Congress has been in session almost con-
tnuously for more than six months, and
history will bear us out in the assertion that
no Congress since the establishment of the
Government has attempted so much in the
same period OF time and accomplished SO
little for the public good as the Forty fifth.
1t is only necessary to appeal to the calen-
dar for perfect justification OF
this statement. For instance: The
House has introduced since October
Is and up to April %, AHA bills. or these
the House has passed 3l9 and both Houses
go. In the same time the Senate has intro
duced l,l56 bills OF these it has passed
109, and 2s have passed both Houses. The
result is that both Houses have introduced
5,s70 bills, OF which 42s passed one or the
other Houses, while only IS have passed
both Houses and become laws. OF these
only Eve are of general nature and in be-
half Of the national interest.
For this dlstory action in subscribing the
public welfare the House is mainly re-
sponsibe. for al! measures OF finance and
appropriation must under the Constitution,
originate in and pass that body before they
come under tho consideration of the Senate.
This simple statement Of fact must
satisfy the country that the House,
which raised the banner of econ.
omy aud reform Mt the outset of the ses-
sion, and has been asserting and reassert.
ing its devotion thereto almost daily since,
has proved itself the most extravagant and
Improbable body that has ever afflicted the
country. 1t is but little better than stu.
pendous fraud, and must pass into history
with ihni recnrd
National Republican., 1878-04-24

AMONG the weakest sensations of the day
is that which represents that about three
million Church of England people are to be
transferred to the Church Of Rome by nego-
tiation. 1t pretends to come by way of q
cable dispatch from Paris. These are the
reported conditions on which the transfer
is to be made
First-The acceptance Of all doctrines of the
Caylolic Church.
'Secoud-To solve the difficulties among the
Anglicans relative to the ordnation of bishops.
ministers, and deaCons; consent to receive
fresh orders in the Roman Church under Ger.
tain conditions.
Third-All new priests to undertake 10 OBJ.
serve celibacy.
Fourth-All ministers married not to be
asked to quit their families, out to be debarred
from hearing confessions.
Fiith-The new Catholics to be placed for
twenty years under special Episcopal hierarchy Y
in order to smooth the many differences of
opinion that may arise during the transition.
The Boston Traveller adds: Now, &c any
body wants any more evidence of the ar
rant humbuggery of this thing than is
contained in the ridiculous conditions
" themselves, he must be u vast expanse OF
Ignorance. People do not go from one
"church or one religion to another like
= hocks of sheep, nor are they negotiated

THE bill to improve the navigation of
unnavigable creeks provoked In the House
a vast amount Of discussion OF constitu-
tional law. Mr. Cox insisted with fluent
Mr.. REAGAN said huid-ability that rivers
and harbors meant something akin TO an
improvement on canals, and declared that
new appropriations providing for the
dredging of Bull Run, or some creek of
similar size, should first be considered in
Committee Of the Whole. Mr. Cox was
undoubtedly fight, but he might have gone
further and ADDED that the bogus economy
of his party in the House has lost to the
Government thousands and millions Of dol
lars by the failure to make requisite appro-
priations last year, and the consequent ne
cessity for dredging and repairs that now
exists. Instead of using the peoples money
Tor these repairs, however, hi. co-partisans
propose to divert it to electioncering pur-
poses by providing, as he intimated, for
water improvements where there is no

IT is now generally understood that the
Democratic leaders in Washington are very
uneasy touching the matter of the National
party. As conversions to the ranks Of the
Greenbackers arc almost entirely from the

GLOVER is good man and ought to be en-
counged, but 1t is his hard fate not to be ap.
preciated by his own party. He owns an In.
yestigating committee, and has really done
excellent work. There Is hardly Democrat

that II Glover don't catch q Republican very
soon he will be dispossessed of his little drag.
