HOUSE.,

ACCEPTING GRANTS PRESENTS.
Mr.. Sewell, from the committee on H.
brary, reported a joint resolution accept
ing from William II. Vanderbilt and Julia
Dent, the Grant objects of value and art
presented by The various governments to
the late Ulyssis S. Grant. They are ac-
cepted with gratifed acknowledgement
Passed.
The senate amendments to the fortifica-
tion appropriation bill were non-concurred
in, and Messrs Forney, Randall and But
terworth were appointed conferrees.
Mr.. Morrison, OF Illinois, called the con-
ference report of the surplus joint resOIu-
ton.
Mr.. Weaver, Of Iowa, opposed the con-
ference report.
Mr.. Hewitt, OF New York, said that those
who voted for the measure were voting for
measure which cou Id bring the country
to silver basis as sure as the sun would
rise tomorrow.
THE CUTTER RESOLUTION.
Mr.. Belmont, of New York, from the
committee on foreign affairs, reported the
Cutting resolutions, which were published
this morning, and received unanim Gus con-
sent to have them Immediately considered.
Mr.. Hill, of Illinois, said that the resolu-
tons seemed to be the unanimous report
Of the committee on foreign affairs. He
had read the correspondence, and instead
of the Mexican government having refused
the demand of the United States, it had
shown an easy spirit of compliance. There
was no evasion; there was no defiance:
there was very nearly humiliation in the
tone of that feeble government before the
studded defiant demand of the secretary of
state.
Mr.. Blount, of Georgia, inquired whether
Cutting was not still in Jail, and Mr.. Hill
replied that he was, but said that upon the
interference of the Mexican minister of
foreign affairs he had been offered his re-
lease on bail. which he had scornfully re-
fused. That was the work of the mischief
making consul there, who made speeches
to crowds in the streets about vndicating
the rights of his country. That was the
incarnation of indiscretion.
Mr.. Grain, of Texas, said that so far from
declining the offer to be released on bail,
Cutting had been convicted and was now
awaiting sentence.
Mr.. Hill said that congress had no official
information about that.
Mr.. King, Of Louisiana, said that Consul
Brigham was a constituent of his, and he
knew him to be a man of high standing
and learning and fully qualified for the po-
sition he held.
Mr.. Belmont was somewhat surprised
that his colleague (Mr. Hill should have
changed his opinion on the subject. His
friends denied that Mexico had refused the
demands Of this country. but he could find
no better authority than the secretary of
state, and that officer had declared that
Mexico had refused to release Cutting.

LIGHTS END SHADOWS.

Nj. d. JEWELL, the chubby, sawed off proprie-
tor of this paper, has been elected treasurer of
the North Dakota editorial association, and al
though we do not know the exact figures of the
fabulous amount with which he has been en-.
trusted, we have ordered special car and brass
band and in few weeks the entire staff will
leave for a vacation and excursion. While it
must be admitted that the honored proprietor
should have been home two days ago, we resent
the imputation that he has gone to Canada.
An exchange speaks of offensive bathing FASH
ions" at the watering places of the east. We do
not know much about the offensive bathing fash
ions of the east, but here in Bismarck it is this
way: They invite you to sit down on a modest
bench and ask you what you think about home
rule. About the time you get to the ''damnable
tyranny" part of your speech they pull the string
steel brad about four inches long, gives you
"Rise up William Riley" attitude. pail of al
lodged water is poured upon you from the roof of
the one story livery STABLE and the practical
Joker in the alley knocks you dowu with stream
of water from the hose. This would not be no.
tced so much, but there is saloon across the
way, every man within shouting distance comes
on the run and Jump to see the fun, and when
the offensive bathing society gets through with

THE Fargo Republican says that the white plug
hat has struck Fargo. That is very mild 1t has
''paralyzed'' Bismarck, and there seems to be
very little hope for recovery.
THE HAT MAKES THR MAN.
Maud, who is that fine looking gentleman over
there with the nico white plug?'' asked Nellie
who was in from the country for visit.
why, Nellie, that is Jim Cold-deck, the most
notorious gambler in the CITY,"
And who is that other gentleman coming
around the corner with the white silk tile?'
Hush! Nellie, don't speak of him. That is
Jimmy the Tough who was released from the
county jail last week.
Nellie was dazed, and gazed out in a vacant
stare for few moments, when she suddenly ex-
claimed: well, for heavens sake, who is that
slouchy looking fellow over there, with that
homely old black hat?''
Nellie, you ought to be ashamed of yourself
That is our minister, the Rev. J. P. Honestman.'
And then Nellie gazed at the photograph of her
Henry, who had gone to Chicago showing him in
his new white tile, and with tear filled eyes she
whispered, Henry, oh Henry, what have you

from Public Life.
LONDON, August 4.-Mr. Gladstone in a
letter says: "Even apart from the action
of the permanent causes the strain of the
last six years upon ME has been great, and
| must look for an opportunity for some
change and repose, whether in or beyond
England. l cannot, henceforth, promise
the devotion OF time and the surrender
of personal liberty, which the efficient con-
duct of the intercourse by letter with not
less than 10000 persons each year re-
quires." Mr.. Gladstone then adds the noti-
fication to all concerned Of his inability to
reply to letters. Some persons believe
that the ex--premier's letter forecasts his
retirement from public life.
