Mary had a William goat,
And he was black as jet;
lie followed Mary round all day,
And liked her you just bet!
He went with her to school one day,
The teacher kicked him out;
1t made the children grin, you know,
To have the goat about.
But though old whackem kicked him out,
Yet still he fingered near;
lie waited just outside the door
Til whachlem did appear.
Then William ran 10 meet the man
He ran his level best;
And met him just behind, you know.
Down just below the vest.
Old Wlackem turned somcrsault;
The goat stood on his head,
And Mary laughed herself so sick
She had to go to bed.

congress anna uot sprIngs, Arl.ansas.

The House of Representatives yesterday
had under consideration bill reported by
the Committee of that body on Public Lands,
the object of which is TO reopen the titles at
Hot Springs in Arkansas by allowing appeals
from the awards of tho commissioners an.
pointed under act of March 3, 1871 for the
final settlement, among other things, of titles
there. II will be remembered by all who are
familiar with the passage of that net that tho
object of Congress was to have tho controversy
about titles at these springs put at rest, and
the hot waters there made to servo the pur.
pose which nature designed them to serve,
The Commission appointed for that purpose
have accomplished that object with dogroo
of satisfaction to the contestants for titles
seldom witnessed, as Is shown by memorial
signed by about seven hundred claimants,
many OF whom failed to secure the award of
their claims.
The memorial expresses thanks to Congress
for the legislation that has relieved thom
from tho distress that has for years afflicted
them with the threatened loss of their home,
and expresses the opinion that tho action of
the Commission has been discriminating aud
Just, and accepts that decision as fnal and
conclusive, but they earnestly protest against
tho burdensome assessments which the Com
missiOners have made on their lots which
are required to be paid before the patents can
be issued.
From the memorial when Is on hle with
the committee II will be seen that the action
of the Commissioners was approved with great
unanamity. There is no testimony before either
branch of Congress showing that there
are half dozen claimants asking the
appeal sought by the pending bill.
Aud when II is considered the highest
and purest tribunal in all countries seldom If
ever determines $50 contested cases with so
few dissatisfied rs is shown in this case, il
would seem difficult to sec upon what ground
Congress will interpose and authorize proceed
ings that will prove 50 disastrous rs that Of
unsettling the titles as established by tho
awards Of the Commission. Another signif.
cant fact in support Of the awards Of tho Com.
mission Is that there were several tracts Of
lands in controversy, to which thoro were as
mauy as Eve claimants. IL is TO bo hoped
that Congress will consider that the interests
Of the individual claimants ut that place are
not tho only Interests involved, The whole
country is interested to u much creator extent
| than all tho claimants combined There are
thousands from every part of the Union who
are compelled to visit these springs TO obtain
relief afforded thom nowhere else, aud ior
| this reason ( for no other, there should be an
end to the controversies that have already
lasted over forty years, and If these titles are
TO bo again dragged into tho courts may con-
| tlnue ms much longer

RICHMOND. Va, Feb. 9.-To.day being tho
time for the opening of the regular February
term Of the Henrlco county court, u large
number of persons gathered ut the county

Of tho many new county judges recently
elected by the Legislature, about whom the
question of time OF date of their commissions
is in doubt, it being claimed on one hand that
the present incumbents hold Office until the
lst of January, 1881, and on the other hand
that the Few judges 70 in at once,
There was no trouble, however, as
an arrangement bad been previously made
between Judge Minor aud Judge.elect Wnd-
doll by which the question should be settled
by tho Supreme court. Both judges opened
the court successfully, caused tho grand jury
to be called, and adjourned the courts till
next term, in accordance with the above
agreement. Both judges committed deputy
sheriff for refusing to obey orders of the court,
which is the means used to get the question
before the Supreme court, whose decision will
settle all the other cases in the State, some
eighty in number.

very little business Of importance. In the SEN
ate u resolution Of the Louisiana Legislature
declaring that William Pitt kellogg was not

of tho Buflalo common council that February
12, tho birthday of Abraham Lincoln, be made
legal holiday.
Mr.. Logan presented minority report from
the Committee on Naval Affairs in the Filz-
John Porter case.
The principal business however, before the
Senate was the bill to revive and continue tho
Alabama Claims Commission. Senator Davis,
OF Illinois, made the principal speech, occupy
ing most OF. the time of the Senate in an olab-
crate legal argument in relation TO the measure,
In the House. under the call Of States, tho
usual deluge of bills were presented, most OF
which will never be heard Of again. After the

make complete analytical index Of the pro.
cocdDgs. " alleges that In the performance
Of this duty &c obtained evidence which con-
clusively proved that the fishery statistics in
the British case were deliberately falsifed,
and, without directly making the charge
against them, he clearly indicates that Mr..
Ford, the British agent, and Mr.. Bergne, who
was Mr.. Ford's secretary and the Commits.

which lie denOunccs as breach of faith
with the United States, a national dis
grace and great injury TO Canada, inasmuch
US the discovery of them is certain to embitter
tho minds Of Americans, encourage them to
pursue an unfriendly course and seriously
embarrass future negotiations on the Fishery
question Professor Hind, il appears, brought
this matter to the notice of Sir A. T. Gait per-
sonally and by several letters; also to the
notice of Mr.. Kellogg, the American
Commissioner, and Mr.. Delfossc, the third
Commissioner, and also laid it before the
British Foreign office. In the correspondence
now printed in circular form are letters from
