CONGRESSIONAL.

WASHINGTON, March 20.-SEN.
ATE-Mitchell, in discussing the
report of the Committee on Rail-
roads, quoted at great length from
judicial decisions as to the power
of Congress and referring to the
clause of the bill of Judiciary Com.
mittee, said it was indefensible in
law and opposed to courts and op-
posed to reason. This question was
now pending in the courts and Con-
gress had no right to make any
declaration fixing what should con-
stitute the net earnings in advance
of any decision. He argued that
the government had no sovereignty
in the matter. When the govern
ment made contact with its citi-
zens it divested itself of its SOW
ereignty and stood upon the same
footing as its citizens.
Thurman said he did not propose
to discuss the bill further now, but,
at the proper time, he would
endeavor to show the Sem
ate that the bill of the Committee
on Railroads was new subsidy
to these companies nearly equal TO
the bond subsidy already granted.
He thought it would be better for
the government to lose all this
from these companies than to give
up the right to alter, amend or re-
peal their charter, as the bill of the
Railroad Committee proposed to
do.
Teller took the floor to speak on
the BILL. Before commencing his
argument it was agreed that the
bill should be laid over till to-mOr-
row, with the understanding that
it be unfinished business after the
morning hour.
Conover submitted the following:
Resolved, That the Presinent is
hereby requested to communicate
to the Senate, if not incompatible,
ETC., such Information as the gov
ernment has received respecting
the terms and conditions under
which the surrender of the Cuban
insurgents has been made, together
with such other Information as is
in his possession respecting the
future policy of Spain in the gov
ernment of the island of Cuba. He
asked for the immediate considera-
tion of the resolution, but objection
was made and it was laid over.

would be just as reasonable for
the Democrats to 60 into ecstacies
over stereotyped Democratic victo-
ries in Kentucky or Tennessee.
Our brethren of the other side must
be very much in need of con.ola
tion indeed when they eau take
any comfort out of carrying one of
their recognized New England
strongholds. If they can derive
any solid satisfaction from the
quite evident GENERALIZATION of
both the political parties in the
cities of California, through the
Werkingmen's movement, they
are quite welcome to it. They have
patted this movement on the back
in patronizipg way, in the belief
that they were putting their efforts
where they would do the most
good; and, as a result, they find
themselves hoist by their own Pc
,tard. Already the three leading
strongholds of Republicanism in
California have been carried, sub.
stantially, by the Workingmen's
party, and it occurs to lis that thi;
is a rather dismal sort of triumph
for our Republican friends.

TIE acce unts which reach us
from all sections of Arizona are eX-
ceedingly encouraging. The work
of prospecting and development is
going steadily OH from the extreme
northern point of the territory, adj
joining the Utah line, to the very
borders of Sonora. Thus far the
happiest results have been accom-
plished in the neighborhood of
Prescott, in the Silver King dis
trict, at Castle Dome, in the Globe
District and near Tucson. The last
promising developments come to
us from the Oro Blanco mines,
South of Tucson, and in the imme-
diate neighborhood of the Santa
Rita mines, which have been made
SO familiar to our people from the
the prospecting operations of Col.
Boyle. The four million dollars
worth of bullion sent abroad from
Arizona last year will, very likely,
be increased to eight millions the
current year. This will place the
territory, as treasure producer,
before Idaho and on par with
Montana and Utah. Arizona mines
are now called regularly on the
stock-boards at San Francisco and
the transactions in them are be.
ginning to be quite noticeable.
This will have a great effect in in
teresting outside capital if these
enterprises should prove to be con-
Quoted on business principles and
to have a basis of solid merit. Col.
James Holden, who arrived in Los
Angeles yesterday from the Oro
Blanco mines, gives most flatter-
ing account of that whole section
from treasure stand point.

Accidental Shooting.

A case of accidental shooting occurred
at Milan this morning in which a son of
Sam Brown, Esq, a leading lawyer of
Davenport was shot in the face. 1t seems
that be aud some of bis companions got up
at o'clock this morning and went to Milan
to spend the day in fishing. While one of
the boys was handling pistol it exploded
and the ball entered young Browns face
just under the left eye After receiving
the shot the boy went to the river and
washed the blood from his face, and we
believe some one in Milan made an effort
to extract the ball but failed. His COM
panions then took him home and DR.. Peck
was summoned. What the result of bis
examination was we did not learn. The
above particulars we learned from DR.,
