The house committee on appropriations
recommended non-concurrence with the
senate amendments TO the post office bill,
but will allow discussion In the house OF
the amendment relating to establishing the
Brazilian mail steamship lines, This is
accepted as a triumph for that measure,
whether il shall go to n conference commit
tee or not, and its final adoption is conf
IDENTITY predicted,
Resolutions and memorials are pouring
in from all sides for and against the presi-
dents signature Of the anti Chinese bill.
1t is supposed here that he will veto it, and
as the measure has not two-thirds of either
house at its back Of course that means
defeat.
1t is understood that a majority of the
senate committee on appropriation has
agreed to the house provision in favor of
giving out the public printing by con-
tract, with an amendment providing that it
shall be done at least 10 per cent cheaper
than the present cost. 1t Is probable that
this will prevail. But those who ought to
know say it will not effect any change,
since the government printing office does
work much more economically than il can
be done by private parties. From this time
forth, all day and night sessions will be the
order, and the utmost vigilance will be re-
quired to prevent loose legislation. Opin-
ions still vary as to whether with all dill
gence the work of the session can be ac-
complshed. Both political parties declare
that they will not "lock down. from the
position for and against the repeal of the
election laws and the payment of expenses
for prosecuting the violaters ofthose laws, so
that we cannot see the way clear to the dis,
posal Of the appropriation bills to which
those measures are taken. But few days,
perhaps few hours, will tell the story as
TO an extra session, who is zone Of those
things that no fellow can find out"

FROM WASHINGTON.

Special Correspondence o: the Cairo Bulletin
WASHINGTON, March /. 1879.
That was pleasing incident IN the
house the other day, when Speaker Ran
dali asked for a committee of investigation
to vindicatc his character from the assaults
Of newspaper correspondent, and received
not only unanimous vote IN his behalf
but vindication at the hands of many of
the Republican members individually. Mr..
Hale said emphatically that he did not
think that any committee was needed to vim
dicatc the Speaker for all that knew him
knew perfectly well that his character for
integrity, public and private, was unassaia,
bic Judge Kelley and others repeated sub.
stantially the same remarks, until finally
the auditors signfed their approval by ap.
plausc, all Of which must have been very
gratifying to Mr.. Randall, who, however
Objectionable he may be to some as a par
tisan.lcader, certainly stands high as a man
and public officer.
The senate spent about four hours in cx-
ccutive session, and confirmed large mum
Der of executive nominations. But there
was one case of rejection that is very sig
nificant On the fourth instant the name
of 4. II. Fox was sent in for re.appoint.
ment as collector of the port of Bangor,
Maine. Shortly after that Senator Ham.
lin made brief speech in opposition 10
the New York nominations. On the sixth
instant the name of Mr.. Fox WAS with.
drawn, and soon after the name Of another
person, unknown and unacquainted with
the government service, was sent in. Mr.
Fox is an honest, efficient officer, who takes
little part in politics, and answers every re.
Quiremcnt of the so.called civil service re.
form, and the case was aggravated by the
presidents having sent his name in and
then withdrawn it right upon the heels of
another personal controversy. Well, this
case came up in the senate yesterday, and
the new appointce did not receive IL single
vote, which is case Of rejection, believe,
without precedent. VIVA, the prcsidcn,
will do now is not known, bu, the uniycr.

take, which can be repaired
only by again nominating Mr. 70,

THE pubic is so frequently shocked by
the details Of bungling executions, that it
is somewhat surprising that there is not an
indignant and universal demand for a
change In the manner Of inhicting capital
punishment. But as such demand is not
likely to be made, and as it is highly
probable that no heed would be given to it,
if made. why cant the different Legisla-
lures now in session adopt the suggestion
of the Kentucky editor, and offer u gold
medal, annually, to the Sheriff who may
show that he has performed the m, st
unique and scientific piece of neck-brcak-
ing accomplished during the year. This
would excite laudable rivalry, AMI, in

WILL the Illinois Legislature show it
self abreast with the enlightened require
mcnts of the age, by passing Col, Matthew
bill prohibiting corporal punishment in the
public schools of the Statel The better
public sentiment that has grown up during
the past few years demands it, and will not
cease to press the demand until the brutal
izing whipping post is hustled out of every
school room in the country. Stripes and
wells and bruises upon the tender flesh of
our children are no longer required, in any
civilized country, as necessary accompani-
ment of school lfe and the teacher who
cannot manage children without infficting
such punishment, has mistaken his calling
Whenever a child becomes so vicious and
hardened that appeals to his sympathics
and affections are truitcss--when he is so
lost to shame, is so reckless of his good
name, that nothing but blows and bruises
will conquer him, he is not a fit associate of
average school children, and should be e1-
PEELED from the school. And show us a boy
of this kind, and we will show you boy
who is beaten like dog by his father
and mother. Such a boy would
demoralize a whole school, and the direc-
tors should close the school room doors
against him, as they would
against moral pcstilence. Go
on, then, Col, Matthews, urge
your bill with zeal and industry. The bet
ter sentiment of the age approves your
mcasure-the better people of the State
applaud your efforts,

the rcmotcst probability that onc-half the

demands of that kind would require the
