STOPPED IN THE FIRST ROUND. Sullivan and Ryan Interrupted By
 The Police.

Sullivan and Ryan interrupted By
 The Police.
 NEW YORK, Jan 19.-At least seven thou sand people paid admission to Madison Square Garden tonight to witness the much talked of glove contest between John l.. Sullivan and Paddy Ryan, the crowd being composed of men of all grades of society. The first part of the programme was of the usual order and was rather tame. At a quarter past 10 loud yell proclaimed that the stars of the evening were making their way to the plat form. Sullivan was the first to appear He was dressed in flesh colored tights, green stockings and sleeveless silk shirt such as rowing men wear. Paddy Ryan immediately followed. He was stripped to the buff and wore white flannel knee brooches and green stockings. Dan Murphy and Pat Sheedy esquired Sullivan, while Ned Malla- han and Jimmy Paterson performed like office for Ryan. The weights given out were 197 pounds for Ryan while Sullivan was given 212.
 After some delay in the selection of 8 referee John Scannell was agreed to. When
  tain Williams handed each man his gloves. They weighed about four ounces and were much smaller than the ordinary boxing gloves The men then put up their hands and Sullivan led off at the body with his left, but the blow fell short as Ryan jumped back. In stepping into distance again Ryan was met by Sullivan's left glove which just reached his face, making 8 slight blow. The meeting brought them to short range and Ryan swung his right heavily into the cham pion's ear Sullivan rallied quickly and made play at the face, landing a good twice, once on the neck and again on the ear Then came clinch which was terminated by Ryan getting Sullivan's head in chancery and administering two heavy blows on the Bos- tonian's ribs. They then broke and spared at long range for second or two, when they came together again. This time Sullivan made his lead on the mouth, Ryan putting in clean straight left-handed counter the chest and a swinging right on the ear. Then they rattled away at short range, Ryan get ting the best of the exchanges which were all over the body and face. This close work precipitated another elinch and as they stood hugging each other Inspector Thorne jumped on the stage and stopped the fight. The contestants went to their corners expecting to be allowed to re- sume, but the inspector was memorable and told Captain Williams to take the gloves away. This was done. The referee said he considered it no fight, but the popular yer dict was that Ryan had the call. No arrests were made

A Novel Pointin Lawsuit.

BROOKLYN, Jan. 19.-Henry Schacht, and two other workmen were killed in May last by the falling of roof in Williamsburg. Mrs. Schacht sued the builder for $5, 900 for the loss of her husband, but compromised for $200. She subsequently, gave birth to 8 child and suit has been brought in. behalf of the child. The counsel claim that, although the child was unborn, it had aniexistence and was the legal heir of his fathers estate. Judge Van Wyck of the Brooklyn city court said the question raised regarding the heirship of the unborn child was novel one and reserved his decision on motion to appoint an ad- ministrator in place of Mrs. Schacht.

Ongress---SecOnd Session.
WASHINGTON, Jan, 19.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 19. SENATE.-T Thirteen Senators were in their seats when the opening prayer was made
 V1ce-President Edmunds waited about ten minutes for Senators to arrive before ordering the clerk to read the journal The chair oc- eupled by the late Senator Anthony was heav lily draped in mourning. At 12:3O D. m., af- ter the transaction of some unimportant routine business, Senator Aldrich offered ap- propriate resolutions and pronounced an eulogy on the late Senator Anthony. Eulo- glstlc remarks were also made by Senators Edmunds, Bayard, PeHdleton, Merrill, Gar land, Hoar, Butler, Ingalls,, Hawley, Ander- son and Sheffield. A noticeable feature of the occasion was the respectful silence maif3- tained and the close attention paid to ths eulogies delivered, several of which, though as usual largely made up of quotations, rose considerably above the average merit of such compositions. At the conclusion of the eulogies the Senate at 2;50 adjourned.
 HoUsE.-After several attempts had been made to pass bills by unanimous consent the regular order was demanded, and the Speaker proceeded to call the States and territories for the introduction of bills for reference Among the more important were: By MT. Cox, of New York, to authorize the construc- tion of one steel gunboat; by MT. Curtis, of Pennsylvania, to provide for telegraph com munication between the United States and Asia; by Mir. Collins, of Massachusetts,, resolution to extend the thanks of Congress to Captain Michael A. Healy and the officers and men of the revenue steamer Corwin.
 At the conclusion of the call MT. Hit, of Illinois, in behalf of the Committee on For eign Affairs, moved to suspend the rules and pass the Senate bill providing for the exer- else of jurisdiction conferred upon the Uni ted States in places outside of its jurisdic- tion. (The bill provides general revision of the laws governing the consular courts of the United States.)
 On 8 demand from MT Holman the bill was seconded, 92 to 54. MT. Hit explained the bill and urged the necessity for it's passage. The bill was opposed by Messrs. Cox of New York, McAdoo of New Jersey and Hol- man of Indiana. MT. Curtin, of Pennsylva- nia, urged the passage of the bill and MT. Hit closed the debate on that side.
 The motion to suspend the rules and pass the bill was lost; yeas 149, nays 1O4-not the necessary two-thirds in the affirmative.
 The next committee on the list was the stood would call up the General Grant re- tirement bill
 MT. Lowery, of Indiana, moved to adjourn and the yeas and nays were ordered. At this moment the Anthony resolutions were brought from the Senate and MT. Chase, of Rhode Island, asked for their immediate con sideration.
 MT. Bayne, of Pennsylvania, and MT. Slo- cum, of New York, objected.
 A similar request to that of MT. Chase's was made after the motion to adjourn had been voted down by a vote of 60 yeas to 199 nays. Several dilatory motions were made by Lowery of Illinois, Mills of Texas and finally at o'clock the House adjourned.

OUR WESTERN LANDS.

FokI Shirh, August, 70, 1855.
EDITORS OF INDIAN CHIEFTAIN:-
A correspondent of the CHIEFTAIN
who signs himself "Omacron" in
my opinion is in error with regard
TO our lands west Of the Arkansas
river. quote from his C ,mmuni-
cation in your issue of the 9th
inst:
In what light the government Of
United States views these lands
we may gather from many facts.
That our own citizens have been
removed from them as intruders
by the military is one. That this
action was sustained by Attorney
General Devens in obedience 10
resolution of Senator Voorhees, is
another. That congress has passed
an act forbidding any more In-
dians to be settled upon them is a
third. That Attorney General
Garland has decided that the lease
Of them for grazing purposes has
not the support of law is a fourth.
Putting these things together we
have this startling revelation be-
fore US: That we cannot occupy the
lands; that no more Indians are 10
be settled out there, and that we
cannot lease them. Then in the
name Of common sense what use
can we put them TO or what benefit
arc they to us in their present con-
dition
In answer 10 this will say, that
Col. James NJ. Bell and other
Cherokees were removed from
those lands as intruders under a
mistake Of the military authorities.
Col. Bell like many other Chero-
