WASHINGTON. December :.
The credentials of Thomas c. Manning
appointed senator by the governor of Louis
lana, vice II. NJ. Spofiord, deceased, until the
next meeting Of the legislature, was read and
filed.
Bill fixing the duty on barley malt at 25
cents per bushel, was recommitted
Bill TO authorize local taxation of legal
tender notes, was referred to the Finance
committee.
Bill authorizing the issue and providing
for exchange and redemption of fractional
notes, was referred.
The standing committees of the last SEES
sion were continued. with the exception of
Pugh of Ark. taking Pryor's place.
Resolution instructing the Commissioner
of Agriculture to furnish information relat.
ing to contagious pleuro-pneumonia of cattle,

cattle, was agreed to.

House.
Bill for appointment of an additional sec
rotary of war, was referred.
4 resolution was adopted inquiring into
the authority upon which Douglass, Ute
chief, is imprisoned, and as to what steps
have been taken to try him for alleged COM
plicity in the Meeker murder.
The Speaker decided, after long debate,
that the Senate concurrent resolution relative
to the electoral vote could be presented as
question Of privilege.
Mr.. Conger, (rep.) made an elaborate
argument to show that the matter did not
present question Of privilege. He relied
principally on the fact that the late revision
Of rule 9. which specified what were questions
Of privilege, did not include this subject. If
the speaker were to go beyond rule 8 and de-
clare this question Of privilege on some
wild theory, because the government is re-
publican, because great interests are at stake.
because the Presidential election is an i'm
portant matter. because the country has been
on the verge of revolution and had barely
escaped, because that same danger threatened
it again and again, the Speaker himself
would be acting in a revolutionary manner.
Mr.. Robson said that under the pressure
of war and reconstruction that followed, the
republicans had made good deal of false
legislation and were suffering from it to-day.
The Speaker decided the matter a question
of privilege, on constitutional grounds.
A long discussion ensued as to the limita-
ton of the debate, republicans demanding it
be without limit and democrats refusing to
yield unlimited time. No agreement was
reached, and after Keifer, rep, had delivered
an argument against the pending measure,
which he denounced as one "of usurpation
and fraud and one which might lead to blood
shed and war" the matter went over.
Reprinting was ordered Of the interstate
commerce and refunding bills and of joint
resolution making Presidents term six years
and representatives three years.
Adjourned.

WHERE DOES THE DAY BEGIN?-We give
space TO correspondents observations on
this subject. Perhaps some of our readers
will be interested in the matter: The cues
ton has been asked. Where does day
begin?" Our day begins under the meridian
where we live. at IL o'clock at night. and
ends the following night at II O'Clock. We
commence our time under the first or prime
meridian, at Greenwich, England. There,
the landsman's day begins at II o'clock at
night and ends at IL the following night. The
mariners day begins at IL O'Clock in the day
and ends the following day at IL o'clock
When we get our observation, and write in
the log-book. we put down $50 ends this
day." In sailing round the world, we COM
mence our time from Greenwich, which COM
mences in east longitude and runs up one
hundred and eighty degrees, where we lo.e
oar east longitude under the opposite merid-
ian of Greedwich, now New Zealand. There
we find we have gained one-half of a day,
which we drop and take the same day again.
This will be the landsman's day, the follow
ing night after IL o'clock. The landsman's
day at our $50 degrees of longitude COM
menLes at IL O'Clock at night, and ends the
following night at IL o'clock. We continue
our easterly course, commencing in west lon
gitude and running up $50 degrees of longi-
tude, where we lose all west longitude, and
fall under the meridian of Greenwich. Here
our longitude is all run up, and we have moth
ing but0cypher where first we commenced
our voyage. Am right?

Superior COurt.-Judge Whitehouse, pre.
siding.
TUESDAY, Dec. 7.
The court convened at ten o'clock A. NJ.
Prayer by Rev. Mr.. Thacher. of the Unita-
rian church. The grand jurors having been
such matters as may be brought before them.
The traverse jurors were sworn and organized
by the choice of Henry F. Harding of Hal
lowell, to be their foreman, and were then
excused till afternoon. The fore noon was
otherwise fully occupied in the preliminary
call Of the docket, which contains PSI
actions.
Enos Woodward VS.. W. II. Tilton. White
and Carleton for ptf. Potter for def. This
action is brought upon account annexed for
two pair of oxen sold July, 1873, $40, inter-
est Sl4, total 1854. The sale and delivery
of the cattle is admitted. The defence is full
payment. The ptf took in payment two
notes of one Charles Wilcox to the deft., and
says he took the notes on deft's assurance
that the notes were as good as gold,
but the deft refused to endorse them.
The notes turned out to be uncol-
Iectible, and thereupon the plaintiff
sued to recover the value Ct his oxen.
The defendant says in defence that the
plaintiff took the notes at his own risk. And
this constitutes the issue between the parties,
whether the plaintiff did take the notes at his
own risk as to their value, or whether the de-
PENDANT fraudulently represented the notes to
be good, when they were in fact worthless.
The parties live in Monmouth. The testimony
is out.
