The Opposition to Speaker Randall.
st. Louis, March S.-Wm. r. Nor
rison, member of congress from Illi-
nois, arrived here to-day, and has ex-
pressed himself very freely about the
contest for the speakership of the
house. He declares most positively
that, under no circumstances, will he
be a candidate himself; that he is op-
posed to Randall, and in favor of a
southern man for that position, in or
der to test the question whether south
ern men can be put into prominent
places with safety to the interests of
the notion. He regards Mr.. Blackburn,
of Kentucky, as brilliant and and
able man, who would make an excellent
speaker.
The Post and Dispatch, of this city,
published strong editorial this after
noon against Randall, insisting that no
member of congress from this state or
the west generally can vote for him
without betraying the interests of the
people.
Ex-Governor ThrockmortOn and Mr..
Giddings, members from Texas, are
also here, en- route home, and express
the opinion that most of the Texas
members and the southern delegation
will vote for Blackburn, and that Ran
dall's defeat is certain.

WASHINGTON.
An Indian Lovers Yarn.

Washington, d. c., March s.-Presi-
dent Hayes has received an open let
ter from Father Besson, an old resi-
dent of the plains, and an ardent sym
pathizer with the Indians, in which he
urges the necessity for taking prompt
measures to suppress the present law
less aggression upon Indian reserva-
tions. He alludes to the starvation
and massacre of the Bannocks and
Cheyennes, the forced removal of the
Nez Perces and the Sioux, in violation
of treaty obligations, and the recent
raid upon the reserve of the Utes in
Colorado, prompted by the discovery
there of gold, and says that unless a
sentiment of justice, enforced by the
strong arm of the government, puts a
stop to these outrages, another Indian
war is certain. He recommends the
appointment of peace commission,
composed of persons whose characters
will command the respect of the whites
and the confidence of the Indians, with
view to bringing about better un-
derstanding between the races and a
change in the present threatening as
pect in Indian affairs.

San Francisco, March S.-The fail
ure of Godchaux Brothers & Co. is
now known to be more disastrous than
the most panic stricken of its creditors
would have dared to suppose. A care
full examination of their affairs shows
the assets of the firm to amount to
S475, 900, of which $4,000 is in stock
and the balance in accounts, notes, etc.
The liabilities are over 81, 100000 The
creditors are garnisheeing debts wher-
ever due. Much of the 100000 due
the firm had been assigned to the cred
itors previous to the announcement of
the failure, and much of it being due
from retail houses in this city, which
have also became embarrassed, it is as
serted that there will probably be a
shrinkage of probably fifty per cent. in
the amount of the assets stated.

Something About Public Lands.
Washington, March S.-The follow
ing is that portion of the sundry civil
appropriation bill finally enacted, which
provides for the creation of commits
sion on various important subjects re-
lative to the public lands:
For expenses of commission for
codifying the existing laws relating to
the survey and disposition of the public
domain, and for other purposes, $40. 900,
provided that the commissioner of the
general land Office district or of the
United States geological survey, and
three civilians, to be appointed be ap-
pointed by the president, who shall
receive a per diem compensation of
ten dollars per day while actually en-
gagged and their travelling expenses, and
neither the commissioner of the general
land Office nor the director Of the
United States geological survey shall
receive other compensation for their
services upon said commission, and
their salaries respectively, except their
travelling expenses, while engaged in
such duties, and it shall be the duty of
this commission to report to congress
within one year from the time Of its
First-A codification of the present
laws relating to surveys and the dis
position Of the public domain.
Second-A system and standard of
of public lands, as arabic,
irrigatable, timber, swamp, coal, min
eral lands, and such other classes as
may be deemed proper, having due re-
gard to the humidity of climate, the
supply of water for irrigation and
other physical characteristics.
The act appropriates 100000 for
geological surveys and
100000 for preparing and publishing
reports of past operations of the
Wheeler, Hayden and Powell surveys,
which have now been discontinued as
separate organizations.

Dc Broglie's Cabinet Arraigned

Versailles, March SIN the chamber
Brisson's report was read. Among
the grievances against the DeBroglie
cabinet, is complaint that it
violated the constitution by raising
anew the question of the form of gov
ernment, which had previously been
settled by a constitutional law. 1t al
80 violated the rule of the irresponsi-
bility of the president of the republic,
one of whose speeches betrayed thoughts
of personal power and that the authors
of the 10th of May designed the estab-
lishment of the dictatorship. They vio-
lated the constitution by delaying the
election three months beyond the legal
ly prescribed time; by evading the
electoral law relative to the consuls
general and the consuls of arrondisse-
ment; by forbidding colportage and
closing the wine shops by collusion, ex-
tortion, undue pressure on the magis-
tracy and the creation of fictitious
rise on the bourse. After the election
they gave the republicans a majority,
and the cabinet continued TO fight a
whole. month; and under the Roche
bonnet ministry, which then fol-
lowed, all preparations were made to
strike blow by force. Dispatches
were sent to the commanders of the
army corps to prepare for military meas
ures, and a conspiracy evidently exist
ed. The report concludes as follows:
"As De Broglie and Rochebonnet, as
ministers, incurred an equal response
bility, we propose both be impeached
before the senate" On motion of M.
Leroyer, minister of justice, the debate
was postponed until Thursday.
