LOUISE TO CLARA.

DEAR CLARA: You have no idea how
delighted was to read your last letter.
| am at a loss to know what to do The
latest information from the headquarters
is, John II. B. will be reappointed against
the wishes of the sixty thousand people.
Commissioner West is responsible. AS
you know | have never expected anything
from him at any rate. The people have
always homored Judge Edmonds for his
fidelity to the people, and it is hoped that
he will take hold of the schools this time
before the people have thrust upon them a
man so diStasteful as j. III. B.
The people are up in arms against the
appointment, but the opposition is with
out avail. lie is Il white mans Negro aud
has been from the time he was born. He
was originally a common sailor on board
of n s'man-of-war,' and hence what can
refined ladies expect from an uncouth
man. know the household will be sur
priscd; don't be discouraged, the time
will come when the wishes of the people
will be respected.
The affairs in the social circle are get
ting somewhat lively. You should have
been down on the excursion of the OrpheuS
Glee Club. 1t was, indeed, the most Sc
lcct excursion that has ever gone down
the river. There has been no excursion
to equal it since Washington has been a
city. Clara, the most refined OF our cltlz-
zens were present The crowd was large
and | can assure you that it was the most
| cultivated that forms our social circle.
If was understood that We should com
pare reports, but since you did not GO
| down on the Sparta excursion it will be
| impossible for you TO compare notes With
me. but indging from what you said to
me. the company of the Orpheus Club
surpassed all of any that went down the
Potomac. SO far as improper persons are
concerned. there were none on board
When such excursions can be given the
people of Washington can honor and ap'
preciate them.
| suppose that you have heard of the
marriage of Geo. F. 7. c. next fall vi
course YOU have heard of the announce
ment so often that you have become har-
dened like myself, q. e. will not believe
if until we see it. The poor child is glad
and no doubt will be happy when that
day comes.

BUSINESS IN THE HOUSE.

WASHINGTON, June 19.-The House
met to-day in continuation of Wednes
days session, and resumed consideration
of the Pacific railroad bill The first
question was on amendment to make the
aggregate yearly contribution of the Cen
tral Pacific company fifty-fve in
stead of thirty five per cent. of the net
earnings, and that of the Kansas
Pacific forty five per cent. The amend
ment was agreed to. The question was
then taken on the minority bill, and it
was rejected. A motion to recommit the
bill was rejected-6j to Sand the bill
was then passed without division.
To-day's session was then begun. The
Committee on Public Buildings reported
a resolution that the charges of corrup-
ton against the Secretary of the Treasury
or his subordinates in connection with the
purchase of a site for Federal buildings in
Brooklyn have not been sustained. A
motion to recOmmit was rejected and the
resolution was adopted.
MIR. Hopkins, of Pennsylvania, from
the Committee on Labor, called up the
bill to prohibit the importation and mi
grafton of foreigners under contract to
perform labor. 1t makes it unlawful to
contract with any foreigner to per-
form service of any kind in the
United States, and makes it a crime
punishable with fine and Imprisonment
for any captain of vessel to land such
foreigners. The act does not apply to
skilled laborers brought here to establish
new industries, nor to professional actors,
lecturers or singers,

Drinker to assassinate Mr.. Cooper. The
generally believed report was that his in

can make an examination of the bank s

A DAY IN CONGRESS.

WASHINGTON, June 10.-In the .. S.
Senate yesterday, a message was received
from the House announcing its concur
renee in the Senate amendments to the
Fitz John Porter bill, which now goes to
the President. The Utah bill was taken
up and, after further debate passed fin
ally, by vote Of 33 to 10. 1t now goes
to the House. After disposingof this bill
the Senate adjourned.
In the House q further conference was
ordered on the postoffice appropriation
bill. Mr.. Miller, of Pennsylvania, offered
"as a question of privilege resolution
declaring James r. Chalmers entitled to
the seat from the Second district of Mis-
sissippi. Mr.. Thompson, of Kentucky,
raised the question of consideration, "
and the House refused to consider the
resolution-yeas, 6S; nays, 129. The
contested case of Campbell vs. Morey,
from Ohio, was then called up; the ''ques-
ton of consideration" was raised by Mr.
Thompson of Kentucky, and the House
refused to consider the case. The House
then proceeded to the consideration of
the Pacific railroad bill, known as the
Thurman amendment bill. After debate
the previous question was ordered, and
the House took a recess until 10 o'clock
this morning.
