The Cincinnati Gazette has interviewed
number of the representative business
men Of that city with reference to the out
look for the Spring. 1t finds universal
cheertulness and large increase of bust
ness over that of last year.
The Boston Post prints bright picture
as follows; ''The factories are generally
resuming or making ready to resume work
and if the foreign market could be still
more rapidly extended by intelligent leg
islation, their prospects would improve at
a much more speedy pace. But it is all
certain to come right in time. Even real
estate, which is the last to rally, feels the
effect of the reviving trade impulses and
proves its figures and pretensions together.
We have reached stage, in fact, at which
further movement is possible in but one
direction. Everything must now go for
ward. The country is evidently about to
enter on a career of prosperity whose
splendors have hardly yet been imagined -

XLVICONGRESS.
HOUSE.


WASHINGTON, March 2S.-Mr. Springer
presented a memorial of j. J. Wilson
claiming to be elected from the 9th con
gressionaI district of Iowa, on the 5th of Nov.
and offered a resolution to refer the mem
orial to the committee on elections. When
he was appointed all sitting members from
Iowa were elected on the day claimed on
the other side not the day legally fixed for
election; the resolution was adopted By a
party vote.
Mr.. Young had read an extract from a
report Of the grand jury on the elections in
Hamilton Co., O., to prove that his
colleague Butterworth and himself were
not considered bad persons. The house
then went into committee of the whole or
the appropriation bill.

WASHINGTON.

WASHINGTON, March ga caucus of
Republican members of the House was
held Immediately after adjournment to-
day. Mr.. Frye presiding, for the purpose
OF discussing the situation in regard to the
political clauses which the majority has
determined to incorporate IN the army and
legislative executive and judicial appro-
priation bills. The subject was very gen
orally discussed and the sentiment was
unanimous in opposition to the programme
arranged by the Democrats. Garfield.
Keifer, Williams Of Wisconsin, Belford,
Conger and others made lengthy speeches
sustaining the views above indicated, and
it was finally agreed that every endeaYor
should be made by the minority to prevent
the passage of the bills named above un-
less they shall be relieved of the provis
ions in question. The sense of the caucus
was that if the Democrats should Insist
upon carrying out the plan already adopt
ed by them the effect would be the stop
page OF the wheels of government, and the
majority would be responsible for the re-
suit. The following resolution was adopt
ed without opposition:
ReSotved, That it is the sense Of the
caucus that hereafter and until the an
propriation bills are disposed of. no pairs
by Republicans shall under any cousidera-
ton be made.
This resolution appears to Indicate a de-
termination on the part of the Republ;
cans to resort to flliDustering rather than
recede in any manner from the position
they have taken.

MILWAUKEE, March 27,-Robert Shee-
nan, the boy who was so severely punished
at Racine some four weeks ago, by NJ.
Sleeves. superintendent of schools, died
yesterday. It's asserted that the severity
of the punishment was accidental, the boy
having, in trying to dodge blow of the
ruler in Sleeves hands, received blow or
the temple. Sheenan attended school for
several days after the injury, but his death
was unquestionably the result of blow on
the head. No inquest was held, as the
attending physician gave death certifl'
cate. There is considerable excitement
among the citizens Of Racine, which will
doubtless culmlnate in forcing an examina
ton by the authorities.

Every moment of delay makes your case more
hopeless, and much depends on the judicious
choice OF a remedy. The amount of testimony in
favor o: DR.. Schcnck's Pulmonic Sy up, as a cure
for Consumption, far exceeds all hat can be
brought to support the pretentions of any other
medicine. see Dr. Schenck's Almanac, containing
the certificates of many persons OF the highest
respectability, who have been restored to health
after being pronounced incurable by physicians OF
acknowledged ability. Schenck's Pulmonc Syrup
alone has cured mary, as these evidences will
show; but the cure is often promoted by the en-
ployment OF two other remedies which Dr.schenck
provides for the purpose. These additional rene
dies are Schenck's Sea Weed Tonic and Mandrake
