bulgarian Assembly Di.solved.

Vienna, Dec. 10.-The Bulgarian as
sembly was dissolved because the lead
ers of the majority refused to allow
Prince Alexander to have any voice in
the nomination CT the new cabinet,
and also refused to modify the address
replying to speech from the throne
wherein the late ministry, and, by i'm
plication, the prince himself, were ac-
cused Of unconstitutional proceedings.
The cabinet appointed to carry on the
government until the new assembly
shall meet, with Bishop Clement, of
Tirnova, as premier and minister of
public instruction, is such as will de-
monstrate the princess anxiety to avoid
the appearance of his siding with either
party.
A dispatch from Bucharest says the
majority in the assembly represented
the anti-Russian sentiment, and no
effort will be spared to prevent their
accession to power. There is little
doubt that Prince Alexander is merely
executing orders from st. Petersburg.

New York, Dec 10-The Herald
prints interviews with the leading
brokers here, and the citizens of Pater-
son, New Jersey, showing Tilden's re-
cent purchase of the New York and
Oswcgo Midland railroad to be part
of the scheme for new outlet from the
west. 1t is believed by many that he
is also buying up the New Jersey Mid
land, its stock having advanced from
A to 74c. in ninety days. The. Herald
says Tilden has been trying to buy the
advantage Of the New York Central
by equipping the rival road to the west,
and that Vanderbilt. to head Tilden off
by securing and monopolizing the
western connections and extensions,
had let the Wabash interests into the
direction Of the New York Central.

LAND GRANTS.


An Important Bill to Land Claimants
Washington, Dec. 10.-Senator Ed
munds to-day introduced carefully
prepared bill of much Importance to the
states of Nevada and Colorado, and ter
ritories of Arizona, New Mexico, Wyo-
ming and Utah, providing for the set
tlement of all Spanish or Mexican land
grants within their boundaries. The
bill was referred to the private land
claims committee, of which Edmunds
is chairman, and will be urged by him
for speedy passage. 1t requires, under
penalty Of forfeiture of rights, that
every such claim not heretofore con-
firmed by act of congress, OF otherwise
finally disposed Of, shall be presented
within three years from the enactment
of this bill, by petition in writing to
the judge of the U. S. district court for
the judicial district in which the lands
are situated, and that the proper court
shall thereupon adjudicate them in ac-
cordance with elaborately stated pro-
visions which are substantially the
same as those enacted for the adjudica-
tion of Mexican claims within the
boundaries of California. The bill al
lows appeals to the U. S. supreme court
from federal courts in Nevada or Colo
rado, and to the supreme courts of ter
ritories, and thence to United States
supreme courts in all other cases.

Vienna, Dec. 10.-Great excitement
prevails at st. Petersburg. The gems
d'armes and police forces have been
largely increased. They necessarily
patrol the streets Of the city, and are
especially numerous and vigilant near
the winter palace. These circum-
stances indicate that fresh attempts
upon the life of the czar are anticipated.
A Berlin dispatch says that st.
Petersburg letter states that on the
same day the czar arrived at St. Peters,
burg revolutionary. committee issued
most violent proclamation, which is
being distributed daily; and in which
they avow that the late attempt on the
czar's life was made by their order, and
though the attempt failed, they are
not disheartened, but are ready to try
again.

A Revolutionary JournaI-The Red
Lamp-Ready to Crawnsh.
Berlin, Dec. 10.-Intelligence from
st. Petersburg says another number
of the new revolutionary journal enti-
tied "The will of the people, {" has been
distributed in st. Petersburg and other
parts of Russia. This number was
printed subsequent to the recent court
martial, and continues the comments
on the trial of the nihilist, Mirsky.
Navoe Vremya, of st. Petersburg,
states that the governor of that city
has ordered every householder to dis
play red lamp before his door nightly,
bearing the number of his house.
A well informed st. Petersburg cor
RESPONDENT of the National Zeit,ng,
says he thinks that the Russian impe-
rial council, which was to have been
held yesterday under the presidency of
the emperor, was summoned, not so
much to consider the question of peace
or war, as how to find the best way to
retire from the present diplomatic atti-
tude. A new war would produce an
explosion calculated to shatter the
whole organism of the state. The last
war proved that foreign enterprises do
not remove the peril involved in the
passive opposition of the society to pre-
vent this system of government. The
peril was greater than the desperate
conspiracies of the nihilists.

Washington, Dec. 10.-Booth to-day
introduced bill providing that the pay
Of night inspectors of customs at San
Francisco shall be SO night from and
after the 1st inst.
The senate finance committee has re-
ported favorably on Booths bill for the
relief Of Frank Soule, and sureties on
his bond as collector of internal revenue.
The subcommittee of the house COM
mittee on mines and mining have taken
favorable action ON BeIford's bill au-
thorizing affidavits to be made by local
agents, of nonresident applicants for
patents, and also on his bill for regu-
lating the manner of locating mineral
claims in Colorado. The full commit
tee will undoubtedly ratify this action.
The secretary of the interior has fully
decided the case Of White versus Dali
las, involving the title to valuable
tract Of timber land in Mendocino
county, California, which has been in
litigation seven years. Whites attor-
neys moved for review and rehear-
ing Of the decision rendered some time
ago in favor of Dallas, but the secre-
tary now denies both.
The b-committee of the house COM
mittee on public grounds and buildings
adopted resolution requiring members
who introduce bills for improvements
in departments over which the commit
tee has jurisdiction to give figures as to
revenue received, postal facilities, etc.,
in the town where the building is pro-
posed, and that the subcommittee will
consult the secretary of the treasury as
to whether the public service requires
such building. The appropriations
asked for aggregates 81, 900, 600, with
thirty-three states to hear from.
The democratic senatorial caucus this
afternoon adopted the Thurman COM
mittee's report on the distribution of
the senate patronage with perfect har-
mony. The report expresses satisfac-
ton with the present senate employees,
and that deserving disabled union SOL
diers should be retained irrespective of
politics. 1t was also decided to appoint
three additional messengers under the
sergeant-at-arms for committees con-
trolled br republicans. This will allow
three republican chairmen to retain in
service three old republican messengers.
The idea of the caucus was that the
democrats should be fully as liberal to-
ward the republicans in the matter Of
patronage as the republicans had been
toward them.

A STRANGE SCENE.
Trying Position of Woman ON tho
Witness stand.

Witness Stand.
New Haven, Dec. 10.-There was a
dramatic scene in the Hayden trial to-
day during the cross-examination of
Mrs. Hayden, when Mr.. Waller asked
the following questions:
"Now, madam, you needn't answer
this question until you are told to by
the court. Mr.. Hayden, you say, is
your husband, the father of your three
children, and he has been devoted
husband to a loving wife for between
eight and nine years. You have con-
stantly maintained pleasant relations,
and there has been, and is now, the
utmost confidence existing between
you. You are convinced of his inno-
cence, and know that If he is found
guilty he must suffer ignominious pun
ishment. Under these circumstances
would you not, under oath, as you are,
make a misstatement in order to save
him from punishment?'
There was no answer. The witness
burst into tears, as did nearly every
woman in court, and tears glistened
in the eyes of members of the sterner
sex. Silence as of death pervaded the
room, and the council for the defense
hissed out, "It is an insult to the wit
nessl''
Waller defended his action but the
court ruled that the question was an
improper one.
