Missouri, to aid in the construction of the
Iron Mountain railroad.

preston Of the rebellion. Passed.
MYRA CLARK GAINES.
Mr. Gunter, chairman of the committee of
private land claims, reported bill for the re-
lief of Myra Clark Gaines. Referred.
WILLIAM AND MARY COLLEGE.
The House then went into committee of the
whole, Mr.. Burchard in the chair, on the pri-
vate calendar, the first bill being William and
Mary college bill.
Mr.. Conger opposed the bill. There had
been no bill before Congress which had brought
to it's aid so much eloquence and rhetoric, and
vet which contained so little substantial legal
merit ,as the William and Mary college bill.
He considered it the entering wedge to the sue
cessful prosecution oe hundreds and thousands
No Northern man could vote for the bill and
expect to receive the approval of his constitu-
ents. This peaceful abode of learning about
which the gentleman from Massachusetts,
Noring,) spoke, used prison house at
the time it was captured by the Union army.
He appealed from the fancy sketches of the
gentleman from Massachusetts about the home

along the grass, to the historical records of the
day.
Mr.. Loring called attention to the fact that
the memorial which the bill was based had
been presented by a Republican, and the bill
had been passed by Republican House. He
was opposed to war claims, but he looked on
this claim as one rising above politics.
Mr.. Goode-There is no necessity to reply to
the very characteristic speech made by the

A PHILADELPHIA Maruel.

Philadelphia hasa marvel in a double-headed
woman. She is known as the Nightingale, %
is ~ years old, and is negress. The Times
says: 'The two heads sit on her shoulders at
angles to each other, 80 that the net which
keeps up the hair of one touches the net which
keeps up the hair of the other, and, if the
owner wills it, the two heads may bump
against each other like playing bones in the
hands of an expert. The singular part is her
conversation. One tongue begins to talk, the
eyes brighten, the face becomes animated. At
this point the observer catches sight of the
other face looking over the other shoulder with
sort of grin it, and the other eyes with a
leer in them. Presently the second tongue be-
gins to talk too, and there is sort of race be-
tween them,

Of tho State for the Congressional and legisla-
tive purposes is urged. reduction of fees
and salaries generally, and consolidation of
the offices of town and county revenue officers,
are recommended. He recommends that wit
nesses refusing to testify as experts without
compensation in advance, to be compelled to
do so under penalty of fine and imprisonment.
Suggestions looking toward relieving the courts
of the crowded condition of their dockets are
made. He also calls attention to- the practice
of officers families living at public institutions
free of expense, and suggests change in this,
and points to other means of saving money.

caught the rope, uttered a

and remained hanging by his hands until the
hangman, by vigorous shaking of the rope,
loosered his hands, and Farrell fell and was
strangled to death. The body will be inferred

nounced for persisting in the execution, one of
