tory, which will be issuednext month
by Geo. P. Rowell & Co., of New
York, will contain the names of
l0,611 periodicals in the United
States and Territories, which is a
gain of 344 in the year just passed.
The number OF daily papers has in
creased in somewhat larger proper
ton, and is now represented by a
total of 996 against 92l in 1881.
The largest increase has been in New
York-10 dailies, 90 all sorts. Hi,
nois and Missouri show percentage
of gain which is even greater, while
Colorado leads all others in the per
centage of increase, both of daily
and weekly issues. California, Ne<

lima, Tennessee, Vermont and West
Virginia have fallen behind 1881 in
the total number of periodicals is
sued. In Georgia, Maine and Mas
sachusetts the suspensions have ex-
actlv counterbalanced the new ven
lures. In every State not mentioned
above, and in the Territories, there
has been an increase.

Frelinghuysen says, however, that
this action, on the part of the
English government, does not imply
that the sentence of DR.. Lamson has
been commuted, and must be con-
strued merely as offering an oppor-
tunity to the friends of the prisoner
in this country to forward evi-
dence bearing on the case.

MEMPHIS.
Dead Bodies From the Wreck
not Recovered.
Verdict OF a Coroner's Jury in the
Case.
To the Effect that the Accident
was the Result Of Crimi-
nal Carelessness-

MEMPHIS, Tenn April All hope
of recovering the dead bodies from
the wreck of the steamer Golden
City, has been abandoned. No
further attempt will be made until
the river falls sufficiently to allow
divers to work with some chance of
success.
The coroner's jury, which has been
holding an inquest, for the past two
days, ON the remains of the woman
found floating in the water near the
wreck of the steamer Golden City,
returned verdict, this afternoon, to
the effect that the woman came to
her death by violent means, to wit:
by inhalihg flaming fire on the
steamer Golden City, on Thursday,
March 30th; that the fire Was
caused by Wash Smith, col;
ored, captain of the watch, handling
a lamp and setting fire to
lot of jute stored on the deck,
and that said jute was not covered
as it should have been to avoid ac-
cidents by fire; that stored near
the iute were a lot of tar and oil
barrels, and that the manner in
which said iute, tar and oil bar~
rels were loaded, the absence of
the proper coverings and the lack of
specific orders i'll regard to
carrying lamps through the
boat, evinces positive criminal
carelessness on the part of the mate
and other officers of the said boat,
whose duty it was to look after the
loading and management of the boat
in such way as not to endauger hu-
nan life. Wash Smith, the captain
of the watch, whose arrest has been
mentioned, remains in Ill to await
the action of the grand jury, which
meets Monday morning.

CONGRESSIONAL.
SENATE.

WASHINGTON, April 3.-Senator
Voorhees,, from the joint select com>
mittee on the library, reported
joint resolution appropriating SlO,>
900, for the monument over the
grave of Thomas Jefferson at Monti-
celia.
Bills were introduced as follows:
By Senator Morgan: To define
the rights of citizens of the United
States when residing in foreign
countries.
Senator Voorhees, submitted and
had read by the Secretary, resolu-
tion declaring that the conduct OF
the State Depal tment in relation to
the arrest and Imprisonment of
Daniel McSweeny and other Ameri-
can citizens by the British authors
ties is in violation of American law,
inconsistent with the value of Ameri-
can citizenship, and derogatory to
the honor of the United States
Temporarily tabled at Senator Voor-
hees' request, subject to his call.
Senate bill ratifying the act of the
general couuci. of the Choctaw Ma
ton of Indians granting to the st.
Louis and San Francisco Railroad
Company the right of way for the
railroad and telegraph line trough
| that Nation was considered.
Senator Brown, of the commit
tee which reported the bill, stated
that the proposed route is to ) be
from Fort Smith, Ark, through the
Choctaw territory in the direction of
Paris, KY, and that the bill requires
the company to pay for the right of
way to the Choctaws 50, $50 per an
mum, and to the Chickasaws SO, 900
per annum; the moneys to be added
to the school funds OF the tribes.
He maintained the right of Congress,
by virtue of it's sovereignty over the
Territories, to take the lands of the
Indians upon making compensation
therefor, IN the same way the lands
of the citizens may be taken.
Senator Maxey, In advocacy of the
bill, discussed the constitutional
questions, and cited the authorities
to the. effect that fee to the lands of
the Indians remains in the Govern
ment, and that possession reverted
to the United States upon abandone
ment, the right of the Indians being
simply that of occupancy. He re
ferred to the geographical locetion
of the Indian Territory, between the
State of Texas and the
States to the north of North
Northeast, and contended that the
question was practically whether this
territory should be constituted bar
rier to communication between the
States or Congress should exercise
its constitutional prerogative to reg
ulate commerce among the States
and with the Indian tribes. Senator
Maxey then detailed the history ol
the legislative assent of the Choc.
taws to the proposed legislation, tc
show it's validity, and without con,
cluding, yielded for an executive ses
sion.
A message was received from thu
President transmitting letter from
the SECRETARY cf the Interior, set
ting forth the necessity for a provls'
ion for the payment OF the com
missioners and the election of th'
officers to be appointed under th'
anti -polygamy law, Toe Presiden
