WASHINGTON, Jan. 19.-Mrs. Sara J..
Spencer, Secretary of the Woman's Stuff
rage Association. called on Judge Thur
man, Chairman of the Senate Judiciary
Co mmittce, yesterday. and made through
him.a:personal request for permission to
appear before the committee at Its meets
ing this morning. When the committee
met this morning Mr.. Thurman laid the
request of Mrs. Spencer before it. Quite
an animated discussion followed on the
subject. Judge Davis advised that Mrs.
Spencer de heard because, an important
constitutional. question was involved
Senator Edmuds opposed the granting
of the request, as did Senator Mcdonald,
but finally 1t was determined that she
should be admitted. On entering she
commenced to address the cOmmi ttee
standing but was invited to take a seat.
She gave briet history OF her own early
life, anG how sue had been ill-treated by
her father, and maintained that the ballot
was absolutely necessary to women for
protection of her person and property.
She asked the committee to permit
delegation of women to appear before it
and present the cause of woman's suff-
rage. in connection with the petitions
before the committee on that subject
The committee, after Mrs. Spencer had
withdrawn, considered the matter. and
agreed to hold special meeting on FRI
day morning at 1890 o'clock, to hear ar>
guments from limited number OF del
egates from the Woman's Convention, for
not longer than one and one halt hours.
The committee decided that no persons
but those who are to make the argu-
ments shall be admitted. Senator Ed
munds opposed the whole thing through
out.

WASHINGTON, Feb. at was near 8
o'clock when the Speaker called the
House to order. Very few were present,
but seats of the absentees were occupied
by ladies, and the galleries were closely
packed with spectators.
The speaker gracefully introduced
Charles Stewart Parnell, OF Ireland
[Clapping of hands.
Parnell said that the American Repub>
lie opinion would be of the greatest inn
portance in enabling them to obtain
settlement of the Irish question. He
proceeded to speak of the tenure of land
in Ireland as being the most pressing
question of that country, and quoted the
testimony of the historian Froude. against
the principle OF private property in land.
He also quoted approvingly the New
York Nation against the idea of immigra-
ton as remedy. He proposed to imi-
tate the example OF Prussia and other
continental countries where feudal tenure
had been tried, found wanting and aban
doned. He proposed to give an oppor>
tunity to every occupying farmer in Ire
land to become the owner of his own
farm. He referred to John Bright's pro>
position for a company to advance money
for the purchase of Irish farms, anc criti>
cised Bright for shirking from asking
Parliament to sanction that principle
In conclusion, he said that it would be a
proud boast for America if she oy the
force of her public opinion alone, and by
the respect with which all people look
upon any sentiment prevailing in Ameri-
ca, to obtain for Ireland without shedd-
ing one drop OF blood, without drawing
sword, without one threatening message
in aid of solution, that great solution.
He was proud and happy in the belief
that in the way he mentioned and in no
other way. America would be an impor
tant factor IN the solution OF the Irish
question.
On motion of O'Conor the House then
adjourned, and personal introduction
of members and others to Parnell fol-
lowed.

WASHINGTON, Feb. "a decision in
the following case was announced by the
Supreme Court to-day:
Neal Dow, plaintiff, in error, VS.. Bra
dish Johnson, in error, to Circuit Court
of the United States for the District OF
Maine. This is an appeal from judg>
ment of the Circuit Court awarding to
defendant in error the sum of $2,659 in
satisfaction of a judgment obtained by
him against Dow in the Sixth District
Court of New Orleans on the 9th of April,
1868 At the outbreak of the late war
johnson was the owner o. a plantation
on the Mississippi river, thirty-three miles
above New Orleans. In 1868, after the
capture of New Orleans by Federal
troops, certain property of johnson, in
cluding twenty y>five hogsheads of sugar
an some table silver, was taken from
his plantation for the use of the United
States army by Federal soldiers, acting
under orders from Brig. Gen. Neal Dow,
present plaintiff in error. johnson
brought suit in the State court to recover
the value of the confscated property.
Gen. Dow did not appear to answer, and
judgment went against him by default.
johnson then brought suit in the United
States Circuit Court, District of Maine
to recover the amount of his judgment t
with costs In this suit he was SUCCESS
tul, whereupon Gen. Dow brought the
case here upon writ of error This
Court holds that an officer or soldier of
the army of the United States whilst in
service during the late war in the country
which acknowledged the authority of the
Confederate Government, that is, in the
enemy's country, was not liable to civil
action i'll court of that country for in
juries resulting from acts of war ordered
by him in his military character, nor can
he be called upon to justify or explain
iIio COuuuCt Ill civil LTlUuudl
upon any allegation of the injured party
that the acts complained of were not
justified by the necessities of war. A
Federal officer in the enemy's country is
amenable only to his own Government
and laws administered by its authority.
A resident of the enemy's country whose
property is taken by order of Federal
officer must appeal to the military Com
manaer, or it war is over, to the Governs
meut, and has no other means of redress.
The State courts which are allowed by
the army Of occupation to continue in
existence in an enemy's country are sus-
tanned for the benefit of the inhabitants
Of that country and not for the control

CHICAGO, Feb. 4.--The Tribune's WASH
ington special says: 1t is known :lere
that Don Cameron was more interested in
the Harrisburg convention than in any
other political event of his life. When
the Leeds and McManes delegation was
here, McManes was not in favor of in>
structing tor Grant, and during an inter>
view in Cameron's house the latter was
greatly excited, and walked up and down
the floor in great state of mind, declar-
ing that if he failed at Harrisburg it
would be to him his political destruction.
1t was NO longer Grant, Blaine or Sher-
man, it was himself. His appeals were
listened to and McManes succumbcd.-
The point is uppe1most that all Gamer
on's hard work only saved defeat by
SIX votes, as change Of that number
would have been fatal to Grant. The
victory is by no means cause ior rejoic-
ing here

Senator Cameron's information is to
the effect that majority of the Pennsyl-
vania delegation are for Grant, with
Blame as second choice.

NEW YORK, Feb. 2.-In reference to a
statement made recently by Parnell that
Queen Victoria contributed nothing in
1S47 to the irish famine, denial of which
statement by Lord Randolph Churchill,
was cabled here, Parnell has addressed a
letter to the New York Herald in which
he says: TIN reference to Lord Randi lph
Churchill's contradiction of my state
ment that the Queen gave nothing to re-
lieve the Irish in 1S47, I find that might
have gone still further. and said with
perfect accuracy that not only did she
give nothing put that she actually inter-
cepted $4,000 of donation which the
Sultan of Turkey desired to contribute
to the famine fnnd. In 1S47 the Sultan
had offered donation of 10000. but
the English Embassador at Constantine
pie was directed, by the Queen, to inform
him that her contribution was to be
limited to $4,000, and that the Sultan
should, in good taste, not give any more
than her majesty, hence that the famine
fund was less $4,000 by the Queens ac-
ton.

New YORK, Feb. A Post Harrisburg
special says: Senator Cameron was about
the hotel all night endeavoring to arrange
compromise; but his efforts have been
of no avail, except in few individual cases
Cameron insists on carrying out his crig~
inal plan of instrncting the delegation to
vote as unit for Grant. Through his
lieutenants this morning, Cameron freely
makes threat that if the Blaine men go
on with their fight in the convention, not
a Blaine man will be allowed in the Chi
cagO delegation. The Blaine folks make
counter threat, in that event they will
go back to their districts and elect dele
gates by popular vote of the party and
appeal directly to the Chicago conven-
tion fol recognition. They say this would
destroy the moral force of the Cameron
packed delegation.
