CONGRESSIONAL PROCEEDINGS.

APRIL pa colloquy took place between
Messrs. Sherman and Beck concerning the
dilatory proceedings. Mr.. Sherman declared
the doctrinethe minority should rnle danger:
Gus and revolutionary. Messrs Harris and
Sherman engaged in a brief discussion OF Mr.
Riddleberger, and Mr.. Sherman said he did
not know what the majority would do,
but the fact that it should be compelled
to think of what it would do showed
caimer by Mr.. Burnside of any intention on
Wednesday to reflect upon any Senator, Mr.
Jonas took the floor and the Heath matter was
revived, Mr.. Dawes Joining issue with Mr..
Jonas. Mr.. Hawley read extracts from q
speech of the RECONSTRUCTED rebel. ex-Gov-
replied and then the Senate adjourned until
Tuesday next, as the Farragut statute will be
unveiled Monday.
APRIL 26.-Mr. Edmunds asked leave for
the Committee on Judiciary to sit during the
recess of the Senate, if that should ever occur,
to pursue investigations on the subject of
granted. Mr.. Jones, of Florida. replied to por-
tons of Mr.. Frye's recent speech. A vote
upon motion to go into executive session, to
the surprise of both sides, was announced
yeas 81. nays 90 This was explained by
Lamar, who, paired with Sherman, had un.
Willingly voted. He obtained leave to with.
draw his vote. and the motion was then lost.
APRIL pa resolution by Mr.. Morgan,
making consent by this Government a neces-
sary precedent to the execution of projects
for the transportion of sea.g going vessels
across the Isthmus connecting North and
South America, was referred to the Commit
fectual roll calls the usual motion for execu.
tive session was lost.

Extraordinary Exhibition Of Strength.

ONE of the most remarkable feats ever per
formed i'm this section was witnessed I'm the
high road leading out from this town I'm the
direction of Shoe Heel. this morning. A farm
er about seventy years of age. named Nero
dith Gaddy, drove into town in an OK cart aft
er load of corn. He got ten bushels of this
grain, purchased few articles for his wife
and children. took a few drinks OF mountain
whisky. and started for his home, fifteen miles
OF. The OK. which was n sorry one, a diminu-
tive specimen of that useful animal after get
ting about five miles from here gave out and
could not be forced to move a step further
Nothing daunted old man Gaddy unyoxed the
OK, took him out, and putting the yoke on his
own neck drew the loaded cart the rest OF the
way home, which wars about ten miles, up hill
and down hill. Tho determined old fellow
trudged along the highway with his burden,
jeered at BY the children, and an object OF
general interest to the passers-by. Upon
reaching home Gaddy carried his load up to
the front portico. He remarked to his wife.
that II "that little OK hadn't been so darnod
obstinate would have put him In the cart and
drawn him along home, too" Gaddy IL the
father of twenty-onc children. OF whom there
arc two pairs of twins. Although seventy
years of agc, he is regarded as the most pow
erful man In this county.-Lunbeyton IN. O.

The Search for the Missing Jeanette.

A RECENT San Francisco telegram says:
" The naval officers composing the Jeanette
Relief Board have completed their work and
submitted their report to the Secretary OF the
Navy. 1t is expected that the instructions by
the Navy Department to Lieutenant Berry, of
the relief steamer Mary and Helen, will vary
little, If any, from the recommendations of
the report. After reviewing the course
which it was known the Jeanette intended
to pursue and the circum stances under
which she was last seen, the report recon-
mends that the Mary and Helen should leave
San Francisco about June /, to arrive at Her
aid Island the middle of August. She
should visit on the way Petropaulovsky for
arctic clothing. dog sleds and dog food;
thence to st. Michaels, TO st. Lawrence
Bay, to East Cape, to Cape Serge Car
rim, to JOHNSON Bay, to Herald Isl
and; thence to the southeast coast of
Wrangles Land to seek for cairns or other no
tices from the Jeanette and examine the
coast Of Siberia near the Theuktsch villages
If necessary the steamer should winter at some
harbor on the southern or southeastern end of
Wrangle's Land, or on the Siberian coast as
near as possible to wrangles Land, so as to
make sledge Journeys to the east coast of
Wrangle's Land. They should not remain In
the Arctic more than one winter. The instruc-
lions should be given subject to the discretion
of the commander. The relief vessel Mary and
Helen is described in the report as new and
strong, with a speed of eight knots under
steam and fast under canvas. She IL the only
vessel that could be procured for the purpose,
was specially built for Arctic navigation, and,
with some necessary strengthening, Is the best
means i'm reach Of the Government. The re-
port closes with an expression of belief that
the Jeanette should be considered safe until
news of her disaster is received"

LATE NEWS ITEMS.

Mr.. BUTLER addressed the Senate
on the 2Sth, reading from the record recent
coloquy between Burnside and himself in
which he said he would resign his seat if he
did not prove that there had been a bargain
between Malone and Republicans. While
making no charge against the Senator from
Virginia, for whom he had the kindliest feel
ings, since that gentleman and his friends
had charged the Democrats with revolution
and treason, he felt it his duty to vindicate
his position by citing in detail the argu-
ments which, in his Judgment, showed con-
clusively that such bargain had been eff
fected. He was replied to by Messrs. Burn
side and Hale.
REPUBLICAN, Senators in caucus on
s'dead-lock situation, and suggested the
advisability of providing for the transaction
of some portion of the accumulated execu-
tive business at an early day, but adjourned
without taking any definite action.
A FERRY-BoAT crossing Fox River,
between East and West Elgin, ILL.,, upset on
the 2Sth, and the passengers, of whom prob
ably thirty-three were school girls, were
swept down the current uttering heart
rending cries for assistance. The first re-
ports say twelve persons were drowned.
FOUR Louisville (Ky.) school boys
were killed by lightning on the 2Sth.
THE embargo on street-car traffic in
st. Louis, caused by the conductors ard
drivers strike. practically terminated on the
2Sth, when the principal lines resumed busi-
ness under the protection OF the entire po-
lice force of thei city, backed by the Police
Reserves, who remained under arms at their
armories all day. Fortunately the riotous
proceedings which accompanied the earlier
DAYS of the strike were not repeated. and no
collision occurred. The companies made a
partial concession to the demands of the
strikers in reducing the hours-of labor, and
many of the old employees resumed work.
r. l.. FRENCH, Chief Clerk in the
Contract Office, Post -office Department, has
been removed after refusing to tender his
resignation. He was Mr.. Brady's right
hand man. Henry d. Lyman, who for sew
eral years filled the position, has been APP
pointed to succeed Mr.. French, and he will
be for the present acting Second Assistant
Postmaster General.
The Ohio State Greenback Conven-
ton is called to meet at Columbus on June
Is, to nominate full State ticket.
NoRTHCorE will succeed Beaconsfield,
and the Duke of Richmond will lead the
Conservatives in the Lords.
1T is probable that the New York

CHARLES HEATH has made an addi-
tional statement to the Boston papers, re-
garding the burning Of his plantation build
ings in Caldwell Parish, La, referred to by
Senator Dawes I'm his recent speech. He
says Judge Bridger,w isquoted as discred-
iting his (Heath's) statement, is in sympa-
thy with his enemies, and that Woolew, the
man selected to appraise the property,
is half-brother to one of his
most relentless prosecutors. Per contra,
the New Orleans Democrat publishes
Judge Bridger's statement, which is
Endorsed and corroborated by parish
officials, and also by prominent citizens said
to be Of both political parties. It is alleged
that the Heath place was assessed at only
$500 and was mortgaged for S11 900. The
improvements destroyed by fire were APP
praised at only 81 400, but insured for g, 600.
The opinion is said to be general that the
place was burned to recover the insurance
money.
