wAsuiSaros, %. G., March 4, 1851
Congress adjourned. perhaps be-
cause Il had to do so, to day. Il in
ished all the absolutely necessary
business Of the year, but not in a
way to satisfy either the Democratic
patty or the people The funding
bin is not just what il should have
been The apportionmeutN bill was
not passed The appropriation bills
were almost all too large These de
fccts we're caused by no lack of in
telllgenoo or practical effort on the
part of the Democratic majority.
The session, so far as tue Democrats
could control It, has heen a business
one. They have yielded to extrava-
CANT executive recommendations and
importunate demands Of Republican
Senators and Representatives for
large appropriations rather than
make an extra session necessary.
They allowed the apportionment bill
to be lost because to enforce its con
sideration was to endarger lCgisla-
ton more Immediately Necessary.
Tie worst sort ofpartizanship seems
to have governed the Republicans i
II they did not desire an extra ses
sion. and ohstruet business 20 bring
it about, they certainly took advan-
tage OF Democratic aversion to such
a session, and forced terms that cost
The country heavily In word, i
the Democrats had had a square and
reliable majority in both Houses, the
appropriation Of the session would
have been several million less thsr
they we're. the funding bill would
have been passed promptly enough
to prevent the business scare Of las
week, and a jast apportionment bill
would have been passed
There is the best feeling toward
General Garfield, who came on Tues
day. Many Democrats are among
his daily callers He is silent as {

While a whaleF, during the last
fishing season, was lying IN q small
bay az the mouth Of one Of The rivers
which empty into the ocean on The
coast Of Alaska, a great many Of the
natives came on board to trade for
sea biscuit, OF which they are very
fond, and finally induced the captain
10 60 up the river and iisb for sal
mon, with which the river is said 10
be alive A boat was fitted out,
manned by four men and the captain,
and they went up the river fifteen
miles, where they went ashore at the
base Of bill about 500 feet high, up
which the captain and chief OF the
natives climbed, while the crew and
natives ished, The summit Of the
bill was nothing but an extinct era
ter, in which the captain noticed that
the rocks resembled iron after It had
been melted. He undertook to knock
of a piece, but could not do it, as il
seemed to bend, not break, under
repeated blows with the head OF a
boat axe. He then struck It with
the blade OF the axe, and chopped it
OF and took it In his hond The sur
face where the axe had cleaved its
way through the rock he saw was as
son nearly as lead, although it did
not shine. He thought then it was
a metal Of some kind, and kept it.
Specimens of similar character we're
picked up by Others Of the crew, and
taken to this city. The piece which
the captain chopped off the top OF
the hill with the axe has essayed CO.
600 per ton in silver, and the loose
70 ks picked up went as high as 1915
silver, per ton. A company of Oak
landers, to whom the rock was sub

Indianapolis, Ind, March 5.-The
lower House Of the Legislature OBJ
served a closing day this afternoon
by a mock consideration Of foot
bill for the protection Of egg laying
hens from chichen hawks, introduced
in good faith by Mr.. Cabbage, Of
Warrick. THIS representative lacked
the judgment to realize that his asso-
ciates we're ridieuling him by num-
Der of suggested amendment, some
OF them unparlonably coarse, and
which caused a number of lady visi-
tors to hastily leave the chamber.
Some OF the members, indignant at
the eoarseness and indecency of the
proceedings, made a demand for
order, and in return were saluted with
. shower of books and other conve-
nient missiles, and the glass lamps
upon the Speakers desk we're shat
tered through similar agenes--.
When the speaker called the door
keeper to compel quiet, several heavy
books narrowly missed their aim
which was the Speaker in person,
and when the sergeant at arms at
tempted to enforce the order be was
disabled by volume which caromed
under the belt.
There we're q number of aching
heads and flesh bruises reaped by
this wholesale hurting OF portable
property and The disgraceful confu-
sion continued SONS thirty minutes
before quiet was restored.
The regular session Of the General
Assembly will close on Monday, and
It is expected that the extra session
made necessary by lack of needful
Legislation will begin on Tuesday
morning.

MUNICIPAL ELECTIONS.
Western Cities Voting for Officers

Western Cities Voting for Officers.
 CHICAGO, April 5.-It appears that the Republicans were badly beaten in the city
 election to-day. Enthusiastic supporters of Mayor Harrison claim his reelection by {, ,000 majority, which is 2,OOO more than he re- ceived two years ago. The vote will hardly
 be counted fully tonight, and of course def
 nite figures cannot be given. The Repubi-
 cans explain their defeat in various ways. Some say it was owing to Boss Hessing, who
 has very unsavory reputation, trying to run the thing. Others say it was the result ot defection in the Republican ranks, the out growth of last summers contest In the na, tional convention, which caused the stalwarts
 or Grant-Logan faction to drop Clark because his election would be in the interest of inde pendent Republicans.
 FREEpoRr, April 5.-In the city election yesterday Joseph McNamara, Dem, was
 elected Mayor by ITO majority. The Demo, crats also gained the City Clerk, Street Com missioner, City Attorney, City Surveyor and
 one Alderman. The Republicans elected two Aldermen, the City Marshal and City Treas urer.
 QUINCY, H., April 5.-The indications are that Webster, independent tax fighter, is
 elected Mayor over Ewing, bourbon. ST. LOUIS, April 5.-The Republicans are confident that they have beaten Henry Over stolz for Mayor and elected a number of other city officials. There was much scratc h. ing and the count will not be completed until late
