"A NEW BUSINESS. & Since titles are

American Princes may become album

4 GL1MpsE 1Nro THE FUTURE.

The Outlook for the Coming Week in
Congress in the Way OF Legislation.
Tho new rules of the senate go into force
to-day, and several senators are determined
to uso means in their power TO secure the
enforcement of tho provisions respecting tho
order of business. Under the new rules tho
calendars are taken up and cases arc dis
posed of in their order. Special measures
may be preferred by vote Of the senate, but
u motion to take up u measure out of its
order must bo decided without debate
If rigidly adhered to, the plan promises
to shorten the work of the senate
considerably, and to make its action depend
cnt more upon the merits Of measure than
upon the persistency Of tho senator who has
IL in charge,
The Mexican treaty Over5hadows in im-
portancc all other matters now before the
senate, and if its friends choose to attempt %
reconsideration of the vote of last Friday,
the week in whole or great part may be givon
up to it.
In the house of representatives, after the
usual call of states for the introduction of
bills to-day, tho standing committees will be
called for motions to suspend the rules each
in its turn being entitled TO oler one meas
ure for adoption by two-thirds majority,
Tho first committees to be called are the
ways and means committee and tho
committee on appropriations bat neither OF
them will have anything ready to present
for action. The committee on the judiciary,
which comes next in the call, Will oiier for
passage one of the two measures agreed upon
by it last week, viz, tho bill introduced by
iIr. Culberson Ito define the meaning of in
famous crimes" and Mr.. lIatch's bill pro-
viding new federal courts for Missouri. The
committees on banking and currency, coin
age, weights and measures commerce, rivers
and harbors and agriculture have no motions
to Di.cr, nor, so far as can be learned, have
any OF tho other committees yet ar
ranged to take advantage of this call except
tho committee on public lands. This conf
mttee has authorized its chairman TO move
to suspend the rules for the passage Of the bill
reported last week to declare forfeiture of
the lands granted to aid the Gulf and ship
| Island and seven other unconstructed or par
TALLY constructed southern railroads or for
the passage of the bill to restore to the public
domain tho lands in New Mexico and
Arizona originally granted to aid the con-
| structon of the Texas Pacific railroad west
of the Rio Grande, but subsequently assigned
| to the Southern Pacific company.
Chairman Cobb now intends to offer the
latter.
The committee on appropriations expect Ia
report the pensions and military academy
bills some timo during the week. The sub
committee having in charge the naval appro-
priation bill has almost completed its work.
| and it is possible that report will be sub
mitted to the entire committee in time for II
| to be reported to the honso this week. The
consideration of tho Fitl.John Porter bill,
| which WAS under debate when the house ad'
| iOurned Saturday, cannot be resumed except
| by unanimous consent until next Friday

Egyptian authorities arc negotiating with
the Abyssinians, on tho basis of cession Of
territory sufficient to induce the latter to
attack the False Prophet. If this effort sue
ceeds it might speedily change the situation
in the Soudan, for the Abyssinians are valiant
fighters, aud, as prolesscd Christians, would
attack the Arabs with added zeal as
enemies of their religion as well as their
country. Egypt however, does not wish to
cedo the port of Massowah to the Abyssinians,
aud, as that is what the latter chiefly desire,
this divergence of views may result in tho
failure of Egypt to secure tho service of allies
who would be invaluable in her present un-
fortunate condition.

IT will be observed that Mr.. Huntington
serves congress with notice that he proposes
to keep his grip on the Texas Pacific land
gIhnt despite any act of forfeiture that may
be pas icd He coolly remarks that the
courts will keep the lands locked up for
twenty years if congress declares the grant
forfeited. The laws of congress are supreme
so far as the people arc concerned, but when
they traverse the interests Of
such giant corporations as tine
ono Mr.. Huntington controls it is
like declaration of war against foreign
power. There is no thought of compliance,
but instant preparation for resistance, Still
we fancy that in the long run the railroad
kings will be taught that there is a power in
this country able to break down their arro-
CAN'T prctonsions. Where the land grant
roads have fairly earned and acquired vested
rights they should be held as sacred as
those of the private citizen, but their impu-
dent efforts to steal uncarncd millions OF
acres should be sternly cheaEmated. The
people will sustain congress in all action de-
signed TO restore unearned grants to the pub,
lie domain, and no threats Of using tho laws
DELAYS will be likely to serve Mr.. Huntington
in deterring the people, through congress
from taking back that which is clearly theiI

Vasha of his intention to evacuato Khartoum

that FL Mahdi has advanced so rapidly that
this line Of retreat is now cut of, so that the
fate Of the garrison of Khartoum is probably
settled. II any dependence was to be

ia possible the place could be

TIE terrible disaster by which the steamer
City of Columbus was sunk on Saturday OFF

while he went to the smokestacls to warm
himself Or returning he found tho ship
had veercd around through the force of the
