JEFFERSON, Texas, April 8. = Last
Saturday evening at Mount Vernon,
Robert Morgan, whom the sheriff left
in charge of the Jail, was assassinated
by six men, who, after numbering Nor
gan, attempted the rescue of the pris-
oners, but the door resisted their efforts,
and being fired on by the citizens, they
were compelled to take to their horses
and escaped. The citizens threatened to
burn the Jail with the prisoners in re-
taliation, but were prevailed upon to
desist.

Fun in the Senate.

That was funny slip of the tongue
which befell Senator Hill, of Georgia,
recently. If" said he, "the Governor
of New Hampshire has the power to fill
vacancy in the Confederate Senate"
etc.
He was at loss to account for the out
burst of laughter on all sides, and had to
ask an explanation of his associates
The Senator himself joined heartily in
the laugh when he learned the reasons
for it,and he begged to assure his friends
on the other side that he had no revolu-
tionary designs.

JOHN p. PnAIR, the Vermont MUIR
derer, was hanged at Windsor on the
10th inst. The crime for which he suf-
fered the extreme penalty of the law
was committed nearly five years ago,
and he was under sentence of death for
more than four years before his execu-
ton. The circumstantial proof of his
guilt was so strong that no ground for
reasonable doubt could be found, al
though Phair himself stoutly asserted
his own innocence.

The Potter NIs tOr1fy Report.

On Saturday March LIST, Mr., Potter
submitted his report in regard to investiga-
tlons past, which was adopted by majority
of the committee, six Democrats voting for,
and three Republicans against it. Gen. Butler
was absent. The cipher dispatches were not
referred to, as they will form the subject
matter of a separate report. The minority
will present report. The report places no
reliance on the testimony of Anderson, jerks,
Mrs. jerks, Weber, and that class of witnesses,
and deals with the case on the general alleged
facts alone. The report is divided into three
parts. The first in regard to Florida, the
second in regard to: Louisiana, and the third
to the forged electoral certificate. Each of
the three points is elaborated at great length,
and concludes with finding that full effect was
not given to the electoral votes of Florida and
Louisiana, that Hayes, Sherman, and others
encouraged this result, that the second GER
tifcate of Louisiana was forged as to two of
the names, Kellogg and Clark being Driyqy
to it. and that Tilden and Hendricks received
a true majority of the electoral vote and were
the real choice of the people at the Presiden-
tial election

liams of Oregon, Wren, Page and Davis and
Representative Phelps had conference
with the President February 25th for about
an hour, and urged him tosign the bill re-
stricting Chinese immigration. Sargent, in
his arguments, pictured the evils, moral,
commercial and national, which came with
the Chinease, reviewed their history in this
country, and showed the evil results of which
their. presence had been productive. He
called attention to the deterioration Of Amer
lean labor which existed wherever the Chinese
had found their way. He also stated veto
of the bill might affect Republican interests
in California disastrously. All the gentle.
men made similar arguments, and called at
tention to numerous petitions from the West
for a radiance of the Chinese, and presented
q number just received. The President fre-
ouently questioned the speakers. When they
had finished their arguments he stated he too
had received many appeals from people in
the West to sign the bill, and petitions from
the same and others not to sign it. He was
glad to hear all he could on the subject, and
would carefully consider the arguments.
majority of the Congress delegation left the
President with the impression he would not
sign the bill. ..-:. b..

prehensions theretrom in the future, is deserv-
ing the most serious attention of the people Of
the whole country, and the solicltous interest
on the part of Congress and the executive. If
this were not my own judgment, the passage
of this bill by both Houses of Congress would
impress on me the seriousness of the situation.
When the majority of the representatives Of
the people Of the whole country had thought it
necessary to Justify so serious measure of re-
lief, the authority of Congress to terminate a
treaty with a foreign power, by expressing the
will of nation no longer to adhere to it, is az
free from controversy under oar constitution as
the further proposition that the power of max
ing new treaties, or modifying existing treaties,
is not lodged by the constitution in Congress,
but in the President, by and with the consent
of the Senate as shown by the concurrence OF
two-thirds of that body. r Ia .gs ..-s
Fortunately however. the actual recession in
the flow Of immigration from China to the
Pacific coast, shown by trustworthy statistics,
relieves us from any apprehension that treat
ment of the subject in the proper course of
diplomatic negotiations will introduce any
feature of discomfort or disturbance among the
communities directly affected. 3-"
We're such delay fraught with more incon-
veniences than have ever been suggested by
the most earnest in promoting this legislation,
l cannot but regard the summary disturbances
of our existing treaties with China as greatly
more inconvenient to the much wider and more
permanent interests of the country.
l have no occasion to insist upon the more
general considerations of the interest and duty,
which sacredly guard the faith of the nation in
whatever form of obligation it may have been
given. These sentiments animate the deliber
atoms Of Congress and pervade the
minds of our whole people. Ou1
history gives little occasion for any
reproach in this regard, and in asking the re-
newed attention of Congress to this bill, an
persuaded their action will maintain public
duty and public honor. (Signed)
r. B. HAYES.
