Comments ON the Funding Bill.

Washington, Jan. S.-The discussion
of the funding bill under the five min
utes' rule in committee of the whole to-
day, developed an almost unbounded
diversity of opinion in regard to its
most important details as well as to the
expected conflict on the main PROPOSE
tion, whether or not there should at
present be any funding legislation at
all. Hence it is more than usually diff
cult to make a safe forecast of the final
outcome of the elaborate consideration
which this bill is now receiving; but,
assuming that some funding measure
will obtain majority vote, of which
there is very little doubt, the contest
will probably narrow down next Mon
day or Tuesday to trial of strength
between the committees proposition,
perhaps modified so as to make the new
bonds redeemable in ten or fifteen
years from this date, and some substi-
tute plan which shall provide for q very
large issue of interest bearing treasury
notes, redeemable at the pleasure of the
government. and comparatively small
issue of new bonds. redeemable after a
very few years, and whether the rate be
fixed at 8 or 81 per cent.

For the cure of Coughs, Colds, Infiu-
enza, Hoarseness, Difficult Breathing,
and all affections of the Throat and
Lungs, leading to Consumption. This
sovereign remedy is compounded from
the favorite receipt Of an illustrious
physician and chemist, who for many
yeays used it with the most complete
success in his extensive private practice.
He had long been profoundly impressed
with the wonderful virtue of the plant
Horehound, in union with the cleansing
and healing properties of Tar, extracted
from the life principle of the forest tree
Abies Balsamea, or Balm of Gilead.
For years he was baflied in his attempts
to blend these two great medicinal
forces into such a union that the origi-
nal power of each would be preserved,
the disagreeable qualities of common
tar removed, and the price of the COM
pound be within the reach of all. At
last, afser long course Of difficult
chemical experiments, he found that by
adding to those five other ingredients,
each one valuable by itself, he not only
obtained the desired results, but greatly
increased the curative power of the
compound. This, having been thor
oughly tested by practice, is now
offered to the general public as safe,
pleasant and infallible rsmedy. Price,
30 cents and 81 per bottle. For sale
by all druggists. Depot, Crittenton's
Sixth avenue, New York City. Great
saving by purchasing large size.

Observation-Disclosures.

Chicago, Jan. s. The Journals
Washington special says: Tho National
Republican has an authorized statement
from Senator Malone regarding his
views on the Virginia debt question
and announcing his intention to fight
the Virginia bourbons to the bitter
end. He announces policy for the
future which will place him in harmony
with the next administration. The ar
ticle is upwards of six columns in
length.
Ex Secretary Thompson says he is not
disturbed by the criticisms passed upon
him for resigning the navy portfolio to
accept the craftsmanship of the Ameri-
can commission of the De Lesseps Ca
nal company, as the latter is not Eu-
ropean corporation, but one authorized
by the government of Colombia. He
says the Monroe doctrine is not vio-
lated by constructing the canal, and
the United States government will
have no pretext to interfere.
Ben Butler has declined to act as
counsel for Governor Sprague in the
divorce case brought against him by his
wife, but will represent him in the
civil case with his creditors.

Chicago, Jan. S.-The Inter Ocean's
Washington special says: Gen. Long
street writes from Constantinople re-
garding the building up of the republi-
can party in the south: The only way is
through the influence and efforts of the
southern republicans. Their influence
is measured by the influence they have
with the administration. A different
policy has prevailed heretofore; but the
president-elect is man well balanced
in mind and of good judgment, ard his
policy will be wise, statesmanlike and
practical towards the south. The col
ored man has been used heretofore by
the republican party as only repub-
lican factor in the south, and the
whites were ignored.

placed on the calendar.
IN motion of Woodholse the fund
ing bill was taken up
Wood. by instructions of the commit
taa of ways and means, offered an
amendment fixing the rate of interest
at three per cent.
Chafiin wanted the rate in the bill to
stand three and one-half, and wanted
the bonds redeemable in five and pay
able in twenty years. No business man
believed it possible, he said, to float a
a three per cent. bond; it was dam
gerous experiment.
Kelley said that in the purchase of

ending last October, the secretary OF
the treasury had to pay Sll2. 900, 900,
or about three and one-half per cent.
premium.
Warner suggested that the rate be
two and one-half per cent. He favored
Woods amendment, but would oppose
the bill.
Wood suggested, for the sake of con-
venience, three per cent, and said the
amendment should be unanimously ac-
cepted.
Chahin objected.
Frye thought it was a ct time TO dis
cuss the rate now, saying the three per
cent. bond must run twenty or thirty
years.
Wood thought not. that Secretary
Sherman had said he believed that
short-time certificates. having less than
ten years to run, could be floated at
three per cent. He (Wood) believed S o
too. He hoped Frye would not endeavor
to commit the house to an untenable
position.
Keifer's amendment fixing the rate
atInot above four per cent was defeated,
not having but twelve votes.
The house adjourned until Monday
without completing the consideration
OF the funding bill in committee of the
whole or voting on any amendments ex-
cept two which proposed to increase
the rate of interest to four per cent, in
the discretion of the secretary of the
treasury. These were rejected by an
overwhelming majority.

New York, Jan. S.--The Herald
says: The prayer meeting in the Ply
mouth church last evening was signal
lied by an outbreak of freedom of
speech that has not been equalled since
the days of the scandal. For long
time it has been known to the initiated
that among the leading members there
has Ibeen smouldering Of feeling Of
dissatisfaction with the spiritual condi-
tion of the church. 1t found vent last
evening. Beecher complained of the
spiritual dryness. and in the discussion
which followed DR.. White thought
there was too much Of Mr.. Beecher in
their meetings, and he suggested that
the pastor let the brethren do all the
preliminary talking, and that Beecher
should come in and round it off with
his rich experience.
Mr.. Richardson said the evil was in
too much admiration of Mr.. Beecher;
He believed that when Beecher died the
Plymouth church would scatter to the
winds.
Mr.. Beecher. No, it will not.
Mr.. Richardson said there was a
feeling Of too much dependence upon
the pastor, by all the members.
Beecher made the closing remarks.
He said: You are not in dead earnest;
you come into the prayer meeting Lam
guidly, with thousand things in your
head, and not tie slightest idea of
Gods presence in your mind. The
good Lord of Heaven, is he not
here, ,sand what um 1 when he is pres
entp 1t seems to me that you try to
make me God, Father, Son and Holy
Ghost; whereas, am nothing but
what lam; am willing to take half
the blame of the present condition of
things, but if you will take the other
half and distribute it among yourselves
there is more than you can afford to
have. What say is that you have not
the permanent presence >of the Holy
Ghost among you. In the future
shall try to be about half as smart as /
have been in my talk, and see what
that will do.

Thc World,s Fair-FIonr statIslics.

Hhc hOrluB Fair-fI0ur statistics.
= New York, Jan. S.-The members of
the executive committee of the worlds
fair called on w. II. Vanderbilt yester-
day to start the subscription list. They
stated that no subscriptions would be
valid unless the entire sum of 81, 600, 600
should be pledged. They relied on in
dividual subscriptions to raise the first
million. Vanderbilt, after expressing
his hearty sympathy with the project of
the fair, headed the subscription list
for the first million with large cash
subscription in his own name. saying
that he thought there would be no
trouble about finding hundred men to
subscribe ten thousand dollars each.
This subscription was followed by
others, and within a short time, the
committee declared, they would be able
to raise $780, 600 toward the first mil
lion. Internationally.
The statistics of the total quantity of
grain, exclusive of flour, shipped to
Europe from this port during 1880,
shows that 40, 966, $40 bushels were car
ried by steam vessels and 663, ,376, ,5s6 by
sailing vessels. This is an increase
over 10 of 1900, 900 bushels by steam
and 100000 bushels by sail. The
large increase In the carriage by steam
is accounted for in part by the increased
number Of irregular steamers that come
here seeking cargoes.

Legislative Struggle Over the Cana
azae Pacific

Ottawa, Jan. S.-A rumor is current
among the opposition party that a new
syndicate is being formed, which will
offer to undertake the construction of
the Pacific railroad on much better
terms than the present bargain. 1t is
not credited by the government, and is
probably without foundation.
In the house of commons Sir John A.
Mcdonald moved that the railway
question have precedence over all other
business, on the ground that it was of
great Importance, and that the matter
be disposed of as soon as possible in
order that active operations could be
commenced.
Blake, leader of the opposition, OBJ
jected to the motion. He referred to a
similar course pursued by Gladstone in
regard to Irish affairs, and said that if
the contract passed, the land monopoly
placed in the hands of the syndicate
would speedily bring the northwest into
the deplorable condition now occupied
by Ireland.
The motion passed, and Coursol re-
sumed the railway debate, speaking in
French.
Charlton followed in English. He
made an able speech, from an opposition
standpoint, but did not bring out any
thing new against the terms. He OBJ
jected to constructing route north of
Lake Superior, holding that a southern
route would secure the immense traffic
from the northern states of the Union.
He contended that the line should not
be all completed at once, but built by
degrees as found necessary. By build
ing the prairie section only now, in a
few years the value of the lands would
be SO much increased that the expense
of building the eastern and western Sec
tions would be greatly reduced.
Patterson Breachard followed in the
same strain, and is still speaking
(12:30). 1t was expected that the min
lister of finance would speak, but Charl-
ton had occupied SO much time that it
was too late to commence long speech.
He will probably speak tomorrow.
A few petitions for and against the
terms have been received by the COM
Eaons. but they are not large enough for
serious notice.

little nettled by the bringing of her son

OF the Loss OF the Lupota.

San Francisco, Jan. S.-An Astoria
dispatch says: By the arrival of the
light house tender this evening from
Tillamook rock, the loss of the British
ship Lupota is confirmed. Captain
Wheeler's ship, of the Tillamook rock
light house, arrived here this evening,
and reports that on Monday evening,
the third inst, about eight o'clock, the
weather being very thick and the wind
blowing from the southeast, he had a
workman on the rock, who suddenly
heard loud voices shouting, and on
emerging from their houses saw ships
light just inside of the rock, and imme-
diately after heard the command given
'hard aport.n Capt. Wheeler ordered
lanterns to be placed in the towers, and
as speedily as possible a large bon fire
was started, which revealed a large
vessel, apparently not 2u0 yards from
the east side of the rock. The port
light was in sight about five minutes
when it gradually disappeared. Those
on the rock concluded that the captain
had backed his ship and successfully
steered her out of danger.
This morning the fog disappeared and
it was found that the captain, instead
of rounding the rock to the westward,
had run his vessel ashore on reef run
ming out from the Tillamook side, the
top mast being plainly visible from six
to ten feet above the water. The shore
line being bold bluff rock for a con-
siderable distance from the scene OF the
wreck, it is more than likely that the
whole ships company were lost.
