Congress Meets.

The presiding officers of the two
Houses of Congress were settled by
caucuses held last Saturday. Hon.
John Sherman is the Speaker pro
tenn, of the Senate and Hon. Jno. G.
Carlisle is again Speaker ofthe House.
The Republican Senators met Fri
day and rendered the Vice Presiden-
cy to Senator Logan but he declined
the honor. On Saturday the caucus.
re-assembled and Senator Sherman,
of Ohio, was nominated with but
four dissenting votes. The nomina-
ton was then made unanimous.
Mr.. Sherman, rising, said: "Sen-
ators: return my hearty thanks for
the high honor you propose to confer
upon me. Your choice no doubt,
has been Influenced by the fact that
l have long been a member of the
Senate. Still duties hitherto have
not given me the practical experience
for a good presiding officer. will
do all can fairly and impartially to
observe and enforce the rules of the
Senate, and shall rely greatly upon
your forbearance and courtesy"
The other officers of the Senate
were chosen last March.
The Democratic Senators met in
their chamber Saturday afternoon.
Hon.I. G. Harris was the.party's choice
for president pro tenn. Of the Senate,
and he was chosen by reclamation.
The Democratic caucus adjourned
after thirty minutes session.
The Democratic members of the
House met at 1880 P. M, Hon. J.
Randolph Tucker presiding. Mr..
Carlisle was chosen Speaker by ac-
clamation and accepted the honor in
brief speech of thanks.
Col. Clark, Of Missouri, the present
incumbent, was also re-nominated
without opposition for clerk.
Leedom had walk-oyer for Ser
geant at Arms, being the only candi-
date. Sam Donelson for door-keeper
and Rev. w. II. Milburn, the Blind
Preacher Eloquent, for Chaplain,
completed the nominations. l..
The Republican members of the
House met in caucus at 3 P. NJ, with
Jos. G. Cannon, of Illinois, in the
chair. Reed, of Maine, was nomi-
mated for Speaker and candidates for
the minor offices also named.
All of the caucuses adopted reso-
lutions that immediate action be
taken to provide for the Presidential
succession. t....s
Both Houses of Congress met yes
terday and the nominations of the
Republican Senatorial caucus and
the Democratic House caucus were
ratified.
Senator Sherman, the Speaker Of
the Senate, is the most offensive
partisan" in his party. He is the
leader of the bloody shirt gang and
the elevation of such man to the
Vice Presidency is an insult to the
party in power.

A Social Sensation in Nashville.
[Clarksyille pemocrat.l


A tremendous sensation was Great
ed in Nashville last week by the ar
rest and indictment of Wiley b.
Bryan for sending obscene letters
through the mails, and for all alleged
attempt at seduction.
The young lady who is the victim
of the outrageous insult, is Miss Fan
ME Dorman. She is, according to
the report of the Union, above even
the slightest breath of suspicion.
She is accomplished, handsome, and
the pet and pride of her family.
Wiley B. Bryan is a man of about
thirty-fve years of age, and widow
er. His wife was a daughter of Ex-
Senator Henry F. Cooper. He is fine
ly connected and is not unknown in
GAINESVILLE.
On Nov. 4th, the young lady re-
ceived letter, which upon opening
she saw was unfit for perusal and
handed it to her brother. The letter
was anonymous, and contained the
most disgustingly, obscene language.
The brother was of course indignant,
and together with his father sci
about finding out the perpetrator oil
the villainy. The chief of police was
called in and he detailed two detec-
tives to work up the case. Letters
continued to come from time to time
which were answered by the father
brother, and detectives. They were
all filled with the same obscene and
filthy matter. AT last a meeting
was appointed and detective dress
ed as a lady and heavily yelled, wen
to the place at the time designated
knocked, was admitted, and Wiley B
Bryan captured.
There was great indignation ovel
the affair and many threats of lynch
ing. The prisoner was hurried t.
Jail where he has since been confined
Two indictments have been found
Bryan's bail has been fixed at $4,000
Bryan's friends claim that he to,
was the victim of some designing
person, and that the letters were no
written by him, and there are man.
who believe that there is more in tn,
affair than has come out.

Ed. SOUTH KENTUoKfAN:
Though the subject of the slaugh-
ter of animals may be revolving to
people of affectedly delicate sensibili-
ties, yet your correspondent believes
that few facts concerning the Union
Stock Yards, and the magnitude
thereof, of Chicago will not be with
out interest to the MAORI
ty of the KENTUcKIAN's readers. Chi
cagois conceded by all, to be the lar
gest live stock market in the world
and the yards, wherein all this stock
is received, cover hundreds of acres
of ground, are laid off into blocks and
sections and consist OF at least
thousand pens, built at an almost in
calculable cost. The hog receipts for
the month of November were about
forty thousand per day while those of
cattle were very great, and your re-
porter heard stock man speak of a
wager of thousand dollars that
some one made, that 100000 hogs
would be received during November.
| Up to yesterday $4,000 had been re-
ceiyed, nearly all of which have been
handled by one firm that of "Armour
& Co.," who are undoubtedly the
most extensive hog dealers in the
world. Lest your readers may ac-
cuse Camille of an objectionable di-
gression from the subject that he
started out to discuss, he will pro-
coed TO give meager description of
recent visit to the mammoth estab-
lishment of "Armour & Co.," and
their methods of butchering hogs.
The hogs are first driven into close
pen where stands a man with chain
which he clasps around the hind foot
of the hog. The other end of the
chain is fastened to lever which
lifts the hog up to pulley and passes
it OIL to a man who cuts the throat of
six hogs per minute, the animal is
then sent by means Of the pulley to
the scalding tub from which in a few
minutes, machine lifts the animal
up 10 a continuance that takes off the
hair, except little about the head
and feet and this is scraped off with
knives; the hog is now sent down the
incline plane, on which the pulley
works, to man who disembowels
the ANNALS, another man standing
near, washes it out, it is again started
on another trip to the men who split
the animals and cut them up. This
operation is performed within few
minutes and theaanimal has not once
been lifted by the hand. After the
hog has been cut in half 1t is sent to
the refrigerator where the animal
heat is dispelled preparatory to the
animals being sent either to the mar
ket or packing house. oe
The beeves are killed and dressed
in as little time as the previous
operation described. The beef is driv-
en- into narrow pen, large enough
to admit only one and man stand

WILL DEFEND THE UNION.

LONDON, Dec. g. Dispatches from
Sofia says that a deputation of officers
from all the Roumelian companies
encamped at Pierot, headed by Col.
Nikolaeff, was given an audience by
Prince Alexander to-day. They de-
clared that the Roumelians had freely
shed their blood in defence of Bulgar-
ia and they would never consent to a
separation of Roumelia and Bulgaria.
Prince Alexander replying thereto
asserted that he was ready at all
times to defend the union.
BELGRADE, Dec 4.-Three success
sive councils resulted in absolute re-
lection of Bulgaria's terms for an
armistice, but owing to the Powers
having summoned Servia to sus-
pend hostilities, the commanders are
ordered to await Bulgarian attack.
The Bulgarian defences at Prot,
extending five miles on the Bella Po-
lanka road, now equal those at Sliv-
nitza. The Servians at Widin do
not menace Sofia. King Milan has
retired from the command of the
army in favor of Col. Horvatovitch.
The latter has appointed Milanovitch

Frank Siddalls, the greatest Phila-

lately remarked, as a fact worthy of
comment, that he had never had a
personal application for patronage
from the Newspaper Advertising
Bureau of Mr.. Geo. P. Rowell II Co
of New York. The reason for this
may be found, not in the fact that
Messrs. Rowell & Co., do not want
business or are unwilling to drum
for it, but that they find cheaper
and more efficacious way of securing
patronage is to keep their names be-
fore the public by using the advertis'
