WASHINGTON, July THE provisional
navy appropriation bill and the consular and
diplomatic bills having been enrolled and
signed, aud the President notified at 2:4O p
m, Vice. President Edmunds said
Sendtors-The hour that closes the frs,
session Of the Fory-eighth Congress has
come. II fills almost century OF constitu-
tional Republican government of the people,
whose career has excited the wendrous ad-
miration Of mankind. Let us hope that our
labors as representatives Of States and people
may Justify the placing Of another white
stone In the long, shining pathway Of the
Republic. However ardent and perplexine
may have been our labors; however exciting
may have been the contest Of opposing opIn.
ions and politics, no one of us, think, can
meet now our separation without emotions,
and ! hope not unpleasant solIcitudes that
embrace the past, present and future. The
smallness OF our number and peculiar ma
ture OF cur organization, which embraces
potent participation In the action OF our
threefold government, legislative, executive
and judicial, produces an intimacy In our
personal relations rs pleasant as 1t was i'm
portant, and makes the moment when We
separate one Of peculiar interest and tender
ness. The chair makes his sincere and CRATE
full acknowledgements for the very flattering
resolution Of the Senate touching his admin
islraton OF the duties imposed upon him BY
bis Office. he Is glad and proud to say that
without an exception he has been aided by
the constant kindness, courtesy and assist
ance of all the members OF the Senate and
lis officers. The chair In now performing the
last formal act Of the session wishes for all
OF You every good and be bees 10 express to
everyone Of you his heartfelt, personal
friendship and good will. The present ait
ting session Of the Forty-eighth Congress
stands adjourned without dste.

The Panic In Touion.

MARsEILLEs, July 4.-.Three deaths fiom
cholera are reported since last night. At
least 5000 Of the inhabitants have fed.
Four hundred poor workmen from Tonlon
have been sent back to that city. The panic

chemists Of this city held meeting and de-
clared the alarm senseless. The rate Of NOR
TALLY 1t present, they aver, does not exceed
that which Is usual at periods Of great heat.

attributed TO cholera thar are really due 70
other causes. The authorities have decided

JACKsoN's RIVER, BATH COUNTY, VA,
August 10Th, 1884. :
Editor Fredericksburg you had a
correspondent from this county made me a
little slow to write. l shall venture, how
ever, to send you the following items:
On the 9th day of August, Rev. S. s.
Ryder was married to Miss Lizzie Kick
man, both of this county. Officiating min
lister, Rev. Mr.. Ruff, Of Highland.
The various watering places in this
county are well attended this year. The
Warm Springs largely attended. was in
formed that forty were turned way last
week because there was not room to enter
tam them. Among the visitors are some
distinguished men. DIR. Talmage was there
two or three days about month ago. He
was travelling IN his buggy From this
place he went on to the White. There was
considerable anxiety to hear him preach,
but for some good reason he would NOT
consent.
Dr. Read, of Richmond, is also at the
Warm. lie seems to be devoted to the
mountains, and the people here are very
fond OF him. He is forbidden to preach on
account Of the condition of his health. vet
he consented to think aloud for a little
while on certain Sunday, and it was most
admirable. The following week he went
home to celebrate the fiftieth anniversary
OF his marriage. When he returned to the
Springs, he brought Mrs. Read with him to
enjoy with him this delightful air. We
deem it pleasant and profitable to us to
have DR.. Read among us.
DIR. Dodge and son, of Indiana. both Of
whom are ministers, are at the Warm
springs. The latter has preached twice to
the edification of the hearers.
Kev. Mr. vicoff, of New Orleans, has
oeen IN attendance at the Hot Springs. He
and profit.
Ihere are other distinguished visitors toe
numerous to mention. H.T.R.
