Finally an agricultural bill was

Mr.. Money, of Mississippi, offered
an amendment, leaving the distribu-
ton of seeds, plants, &C., to the dis
cretion of the Commissioner Of Agri-
culture.
This gave rise to long and in
teresting discussion, nearly all the
speakers favoring the amendment,
though Messrs. Speer, of Georgia,
Muldrow, of Mississippi, and Tai
bott, of Maryland, opposed it on the
ground that member of Congress
could better than the Commissioner
of Agriculture know to whom seeds
should be distributed. The amends

WASHINGTON.
Passage of the Chinese Tmmigra-
ton Bill in the Senate.

WASHINGTON, D. c., March S.
Rev. j. L. NJ. Curry, of Richmond,
Va, general agent of the Peabody
Education Fund, addressed the
House committee on education and
labor to-day, on the question of na-
tional aid to public schools on the
basis of illiteracy. He laid down two
postulates; first, that the perpetuity
and prosperity of our Republican
representive institutions depend up
on the intelligence and integrity of
the citizens; second, to secure
universal education gov
ernmental authority, and, aid are in
dispensible. The duty to furnish
education chiefly and primarily
devolves on the States. The North
has bravely assumed and nobly per
formed this obligation. The South
is acting heroically in the same di-
rection, but from pecuniary inability
and other causes, is not furnishing
adequate means of instruction to
all the educatable youth. National
aid is imperative. The illiteracy, as
exhibited by the census, of the white
citizens, and more largely of the
black citizens, is appalling
AS a means of self pres
ervation, aid should be rem
dered by the government, that
ignorant voters are unsafe depositoo
ries of free government, and uncero
tain guardians of national honor and
interests. Without favoring any
particular measure, DR.. Curry said
national aid should supplement and
not supersede the State systems of
education. It should be immediate
and adequate to correspond with the
peril. 1t should be for free and ru-
dimentary education. Mr.. A. j.
Chambers. of New Haven, Connecti-
cut, also addressed the committee on
the bill providing for the appoint
ment Of commission of colored
men to enquire into and report upon
the material, industrial and intel>
lectual advancement and the present
status of the colored people Of the
United States, and making appro~
priations for the same.

THE FLOODS.
Destitution Beyond Description
in Arkansas.
People Compelled to Build False
Floors in their Houses,
Or Seek Safety on Higher Lands
in Camps Of Brush.

NEW ORLEANS, March S.-No fur
ther disasters to levees are reported,
but the people are thoroughly
aroused and are strengthening points
all along the line. A heavy south
wind to-day produced swell iu the
river, the water at times breaking
over the levee at the head of Canal
street and at several points between
this city and Carrollton. This, how
ever, creates no alarm. The guage
this morning showed the river to be
seyen-tenths of an inch below the
high water mark of 1874.
LITTLE Rock, ARK, March 9.-M.
G. Harris, who was sent down to
Desha County by Governor Churchill
to aid in distributing government
supplies to persons rendered desti
tute by the overflow, returned yes
terday. In an interview with re.
porter, he said that along the river
front of Desha County, 100 miles in
length, the destitution is beyond de-
scription. The water has reached
an unprecedented height. Scarcely
farm house or residence on the
bottom has escaped inundation. The
people have been compelled
to build false floors in their
houses or to seek safety
on higher lands, where, in rudely
constructed camps of brush boughs
and cane, they sit and wait for STAR
vation and death. It is appalling,
and without government aid liberals
ly and quickly bestowed, there is no
telling where it will end. Many per-
sons have been feeding on the car
casses of drowned cattle.
Personal investigation, as well
as assurances of respecta-
BILE gentlemen, convinced Mr..
Harris that not less than
600 families averaging six persons to
each, in Despu county alone, are de
pendent upon the charity of the Cow
ernment. He believed it would be
no exageration to place the gross
number, old and young, at $500. In
dications points to heavy continu-
ance of cverh ow. The most sanguine
hardly daring to hope for its subsid>
ance before Monday.

FOREIGN NEWS.

LONDON, March s.-The Daily
News announces that the report
published in st. James Gazette, yes-
terday, about the convention be,
tween Germany and Faance, for the
annexation, by the latter, of Lux
emburg, is pure invention.
The Times deprecates the bi-me-
talist meeting to be held at the Man-
sion House, to,day, as calculated to
foster delusion abroad that Eng~
land intends to tamper with the cur>
rency.
The would-be assassin, ,MacLean,
has been identified as the man who,
last summer, frequented the vicinity
of Windsor Castle and acted in
suspic Gus manner.
The Manchester Guardian con-
firms the report of the arrest at
Ragusa, of Evans, it's Dalmatiak
correspondent. 1t appears that an
order was first issued for bis expul
sion, and he was about to embark
with his wife, when he was taken to
the barracks of Gendarmes, appar-
emily because he was suspected of
melting the people to insurrection.
At bi-metalic meeting at the
Mansion House, letters of appro
val of the object of the Ministers
from France and Germany were
read. United States Minister Low
ell and the ministers from Greece,
Holland, Roumania and Chill were
present. The Governor of the Bank
of England and Messrs Arthur J..
Balfour, Williamson and Cotton and
Sir George Campbell, members of
Parliament, spoke to the resolutions
in favor of free coinage of silver, and
the objects of the parties conference,
which were carried. About 1,200
were present, including many prom
inent business men.
The Times correspondent at Rome,
says:
''At the approaching consistory,
the Pope will create seven new carr
dinals, including the Most Rev. DIR.
McCabe, Archbishop of Dublin. 1t
is understood that this expresses the
Pope's approval of the efforts which
Archbishop MeCabe made in the
cause of law and order in Ireland
The archbishops of Sevelle, Algiers,
and the patriarch of Venice, will also
be included.
LONDON, March 9.-Mr. Lowell,
United States minister, replying to
an application made on behalf of an
American citizen arrested in Ireland,
says: 1.-The coercion act is contrary
to the spirit and foundation of the
principles of both English and
American jurisprudence, but is the
law of the land and controls all per-
sons domiciled in the proclaimed
districts of Ireland, whether British
subjects or not. It is manifestly
futile to claim that naturalized citi-
zans of the United States should be
exempted from the operation of the
act.
4 Madrid dispatch to the Daily
News, says: Considerable sensation
has been caused by the rumor that
Don Carlos has abdicated his claims
to the Spanish throne, in favor of his
infant son.

Horrible Assassination.

MOUNT VERNON, KY, March g.
Monday night Mary Segman, of
Round Stone, and her mother, Rhoda
Segman, were assassinated by an
unknown person. They lived about
seven miles from here The assas-
sin entered the little cabin about
midnight and shot first at Mary, with
instantly fatal result. He then went
out and consulted with some one,
and presently returned and
killed the old woman. Mary's little
children gave the alarm to the neigh
bors, when the assassin was gone.
There were nine wounds on the body
of Mary Segman, five of which any
one was fatal. The assassin fir, d
fifteen shots in all. There is no
doubt of his having had a confed>
crate. James Bishop, whose brother
was killed year ago at this house,
has been arrested on suspicion.

ONO takes the school ma am cake.

school district" in the town of Rush
Creek, described as "a sprightly young
lady of slender form and almost effemi-
nate appearance" drew the reins of
government little to tight too suit
some of the big boys, and one day nine
of them-great strapping fellows, some
almost young men-undertook to pick
her up and carry her out of the house.
But she didn't pick up and carry worth

with desperation, broke the ringleader's
head and thrashed the whole crowd back
into their seats. That school district
just now holds the most popular girl in
all the county.

9 ..ECT. DANENH0WER.
Tive Letters Describing the Trip of
the Jeanneatte Survivors from the
Lena to YakOutsk.

WAsHIsGroN, March w. W.
DanenhVwer las received two letters
from his s,n, Lieut.. John Danen>
hover, OF the Jeanette arctic ex>
ploring expedition. The first one
is dated Bum, mouth Of the Lena,
Nov. 8, 1881 There is added a
postscript, dated at Yakoutsk, Dec.
It. The trip up the river from Bu-
lun to Yak 1utsk occupied thirty-six
days, and was made on sledges
with dogs, reindeer and horses.
Lieutenant Banenhower describes
the journt y as one of severe hard>
ship. There were stations at inter>
walls on the way, constructed of logs.
He describ- $ the last one of these,
seventeen mites from Yakoutsk, the
best of til lot, as a small log build
ing with q cow-shed attached. 1t
was composet of one room, in which
were about twenty people, when his
party arrived. In the centre was the
body OF horse killed for food and
brought into the room to thaw out.
During the night the party stopped
at this hut, Jack Cole, boatswair,
while laboring under alteration OF
mind, got up and started to walk
to New York to see his wife.
The thermometer stood sixty
degrees below zero. 1t required all
of Lieut.. Danenhower's persuasive
powers to induce him to come back
into the hut. At Yakoutsk, Lieut..
Danenhower says he found a man
who understood French and was
taken to the Governor, who treated
him with great kindness and consid-
Grafton. He detailed lieutenant
with instructions to give the wants
of the party special attention. They
were quartered at Ii small hotel con-
Quoted on the American plan. Lieut..
H4nenhower speaks Of his stay in
Yakoutsk as exceedingly pleasant and
comfortable under the circumstances.
December "A, the Governor sent an
officer to Lieut. Danenhower to
ask him at what time the
SuIiSGlildS itStiNllIeS uSudliy DeN
gan i'll America, and when informed
that it was unusual to commence
Christmas eve, he sent his sleigh for
the party to come to his residence
for supper and spend the evening.
In speaking OF the terrible voyage
of the party, Lieutenant Danenhower
says they had to travel TOO miles
over the ice from the ship to the
mouth of the Lena. They landed in
shoal water, and were compelled to
wade two miles to land. They were
forced to travel 100 miles further be-
fore they reached shelter, and he says
he was up five days and four nights
without sleep or rest He mentions
the fact that out of thirty>three
comprising the crew and officers of
the jeanette, only thirteen are known
to be living, and one is known to be
dead.
