THE PRESIDENT AT ALBANY.
He Returns to the Scene of His Former
Days.

He Returns to the Scene of His Former
Days.
ALBANY, N. Y, July 22.-The Albany peo-
pie have given themselves up body and soul
to the task of cele orating the incorporation
of the city. The uproar that broke loose at
midnight when the bells announced the ar
rival of the anniversary, was continued until
daylight. A small cannon kept up the sa-
lutes, and bontires were lighted upon the
principal streets. All the noise and enthus-
iasm that Albany may have had pent up
within herself for the last two centuries,
seemed to have found vent. Thousands of
persons remained up through the night, and
were as ready and eager to start in on to-
days celebration as though they had enjoyed
the most refreshing sleep.
The president upon his arrival was escor-
ted to his hotel, and after the procession the
president spoke as follows:
On iZENs OF ALBANY:-I came here today
as an invi ed guest to family reunion. /
desire to be modest and not mingle too
freely IN the cOngratulation and celebrations
which belong more properly to you. / do
not wish to sound a single discord, but |
have heard so much of Dutch and of this
being Dutch city, so much talk of olden
time and o. its customs, that when remem-
Der that dwelt two years among you, l
wonder whether l am in the right place or
not. At the risk of creating discordance l
say, in my time Dutch was not the language
of the town. The people spoke English, and
to me words in English of kindness that
will never forget. am glad, however, that
you have got your charter. When l lived
here, it was think, under charter, but &C
cording to my remembrance it was a char
ter passed by the legislature of the state in
the first year l spent here, and approved by
me. [ must not detain you longer, but do
not refrain from expressing to you my
appreciation of the kindness with which you
have received me, and from repeating t Q
homely and old-fashioned wish, "may the
citizens of Albany and their descendants see
many happy returns of the day."

HOUSE,.

In the house on July 22nd, the speaker
called the committees for reports, when the
following were submitted: By Mr.. Hatch, of
Missouri, from the committee on agricul-
ture, the OleOmargarine bill with senate
amendments, with a recor mendation that
they be non-concurred in. 1t was referred
to the committee of the whole, where it
takes its place at the foot of the calendar,
and where it can only be reached by laying
aside the Morrison and Randall tariff bills.
Mr.. Herbert again called up the special
order, and Mr.. Hatch again raised the Ques-
ton of consideration, desiring to move to
go into committee of the whole for the con-
sideration of the oleomargarine bill. The
house refused to consider either and adj
journed.
In the house on July %, Hewitt, of New
York, called attention to the petitions print
ed in the record this morning presenteF
by Burleigh, of New York. The petition
came from the New York chamber of coT
MERGE and from the New York merchants in
favor of an appropriation of 100000 for
the improvement of the New York harbor.
The oleomargarine bill was next consid-
cred in committee of the whole. The senate
amendments were cOncurred in and the bill
now goes to the president. At the evening
session half a dozen bills, among them the
senate bill granting a pension of 500 a
month to the widow of General Stannard,
was passed. The house adjourned.
In the house on July a, the bill for i'm
creasing the navy was taken up and passed.
At the evening session the bill declaring a
forfeiture of the land granted to the New
Orleans. Baton Rouge & Nicksburg railroad
was called up and passed. The remainder
of the session was consumed in an lnetfec-
ual effort to secure quorum to act on the
Mobile 4 Girard land forfeiture.
In the house on July 26th, Mr.. Henley. of
California, from the committee on public
lands, reported back the senate bill forfeit
ing certain of the lands granted to the
Northern Pacific Railroad company, The
committee recommended that IN lieu OF the
senate bill there be substituted the provls-
ions of the house bill on the same subject.
Mr.. Henley stated that the house bill TO-
feited 33, 600, 900 acres more than the senate
bill. Pending debate the house adjourned.
In the house on July -. Mr.. Hiscock, of
New York. offered a resolution directing the
conferees to insist upon striking out the
senate amendment providing for the i'm
provement of the Mississippi river from the
head OF the passes to the mouth of the Ohio
de stated that the effect of the action would
be TO leave the house provision still In con-
ference. The senate amendment which he
proposes TO strike out re-establlshes the
Mississippi river commission, and contained
some vicious legislation IN regard 10 the
building of leyees. The resolution was
adopted-yeas IA, nays IS. The house then
resumed the consideration of the Northern

Ell PAso, TEX. July 27.-Council Brigham
has received no official advice or instruc-
tions about the pending international
troubles. and will not for a day or two, "a
the correspondence between the two govern
ments is carried on direct between Washing
ton and the City OF Mexico. Therefore, the
exact status OF affairs is not known here.
Paso Del Norte continues full of Mexican
troops. The higher portions of the city are
plainly visible from the American side, and
a number of troops can be seen busy al
something or other on an elevator back of
the cathedral.
1t Is thought they are throwing up earth
works. The feel NJ among the Mexican
masses il very bitter against the Americans.
They are defiant and say it will be an easy
matter for their country TO whip the United
States. They have somehow brought them
selves to believe that the firing Of the first
gun would be the signal for the southern
states 10 come 10 their assistance to revenge
themselves on the northern states for the
disastrous outcome of the civil war. They
likewise feel convinced that England would

substitute for the senate bill was agreed to
yeas ia, nays Go. The senate bill as thus
amended was passed-yeas 1S5, nays 4S, and
request for conference was made. Ad-
journed.
] In the house on July %, Mr.. Bland of
Missouri offered an amendment providing
that the certificates shall be issued on all
the standard silver dollars in the treasury,
and paid out on the expenditures and obi
cations of the government, and when re-
celved IN the treasury shall be re-issued.
The amendment was rejected, 81 to II, and
the clause was agreed to in the shape recon-
mended by ire committee on appropria-
lions. The next question upon which a
hitch occurred was the senate amendment
reducing from $4,000 to $4,000 the appro-
priation for the protection of public lands
against fraudulent entries. The committee
on appropriations recommended concur
renee in the amendment, but Mr.. Holman
moved inconvenience and made a
speech, in which he stated the necessity of
protecting the peoples land against tribu-
lent entries. The motion to non-concur
was lost 56 to Ill, and the amendment was
concurred in. Mr.. Holman, of Indiana,
submitted the conference report on the leg
lslative appropriation bill and it was agreed
to. The house then adjourned.

The Government Land Office /.
Meant.

Thursday afternoon, Judge Osborn
heard in chambers, at the Office of the
probate Judge, the application Of w. G.
Marshall, w. B. Kritchfeld, Geo. M.
Ufford and others for an Injunction to
restrain w. G. Olson, w. 81. Pilkenton
and B. j. F. Hanna from moving the gov
ernment land Office into the Knights OF
Labor building, on Washington street.
The ground of the application was that
Mr.. Olson had no right to lease the
building.
The defense was made upon the propo-
sition that the plaintiffs have the legal
right to seek the determination of the
question of possession, and that, therefore,
no equitable remedy would lie in the
case.
Judge Osborn, in an address Of some
length, maintained that, inasmuch as
their petition showed them to have an
equitable remedy at law, the demurrer OF
the defendants must be sustained.
To these rulings and findings of the
court, the plaintiffs excepted, and took
twenty days in which to prepare and file
a writ of error in the supreme court.

MI. Hastings happened to be passing
and called the attentisn of Mr.. Lord to
the danger, who rushed to the rescue and
with assistance managed to save most of
goods. Had there been few moments
delay, not only the furniture, but also
the new house, would have been wrapped
in flames, as it was but few feet distant.
Sweeping eastward, the fire found ad-
ditional fuel in the long grass in the
draw and on the low lands, and the
smoke rolled into the air as if from
large bonfire. Messrs. Burnham's, Bam-
berg's and P. Richards places were at
tackled by it, but successfully fought off.

Utterly UnexplainabIe.

Many of our readers have seen some.
something of the reports concerning the
murder, some months ago, on the farm
of Mrs. Malloy, near Springfield, Mo-, OF
Mrs. Geo. r. Graham by her husband;
how her body was stripped by the MUIR
derer, and, along with the clothes, thrown
into a well on the place; how, few
weeks ago, a brother of the murdered
woman employed detectives to ferret out
the crime; how Graham was arrested,
placed in Jail at Springfield, made con-
fession that he had done the dreadful
deed.
In the wake of this comes the news
that the coroner's jury which sat in the
case of the murdered woman has
brought in verdict that Graham COM
mitted the murder, and that Mrs. NAL
10y and Graham's second wife, who is an
adopted daughter of Mrs. MaIloy's, are
accessories.
Mrs. Malloy is the great temperance
advocate and religious revivalist. She is
said to have favored the marriage of her
adopted daughter, Cora Lee, to Graham,
although Graham was then known to be
horse thief, with prison record. This
marriage made him bigamist. Indeed,
it is unjust, perhaps, to Mrs. Malloy
that the whole truth, as told in the pa
pers concerning her intimacy with Gra-
ham, be told now.
Mrs. Malloy conducted a religious re-
vival at Concordia, Kansas, last winter,
and Graham, toward its close, was con-
verted-or claimed to be. This we learn
from our neighbor, Mr.. J. E. Alsop, who
lived at that place last winter.
Mrs, Malloy and Cora Lee are under
arrest.

be broken in day. The price per acre
for breaking, he says, will be the same as
that established by team breakers. Six

view Of establishing an Office for the con-
