We have here, the Governments threat to
give them work will quickly quell all dis

work, as you well know. They are not
Socialists for any such ends as pro-
curing work. The end and aim of their
existence is to prevent anyone working
quietly aud peaceably, or otherwise. They
prefer for an occupation the guzzling of
beer in cellar and the damning of the
man who has something.

A few days since Crawford was granted
divorce from his wife in England, upon the
ground of criminal relations proven to
have existed between her and Sir Charles
Dixie. AT the same time, under way
they have in favor of the aristocracy over
there, Sir Charles was found to be entirely
innocent. Here in America we cannot
understand how one of the parties in such
an escapade can be made thereby as blacl,
as an imp and the other as pure as an
angel; but, then, we probably have not
been educated up TO the high moral status
of our aristocratic neighbors across the
waters. And now The Honorable Sir
Chas. Dixie has just issued proclamation
to his constituents thanking them that he
has their confidence. Well, if the DESTROYER
of the happiness and home of the Crawford
family has the confidence of any body, the
fact deserves especial mention, but it's
little cheeky for the libertine to do it.

APPROACHING LEGISLATION,
How Both Branches Of Congress will
Put in Their Time Daring tho
Coming Week.
The Naval Appropriation Bill win
Surely Take Up the Time
Of The House.
Any Quantity Of Important Measure
will be Brought to the Attention
OF the Senate.

WASHINGTON, June 2O.-Final action O,
the Naval Appropriation bill will consum
the tirst hour of to-morrow's session in tb
House. After a call OF States for bills, i.
motion will be made to pass, under a sus
pension OF the rules, Representative Null
ier's bill increasing the standing appropria
tons for militia. The Invalid Pension
Committee will also make an effort to pass
a substitute for the Blair Pension hill. On
Tuesday Mr.. Morrison will renew his motion
to consider the Tariff bill. Nothing has de-
veloped since Thursdays vote to justify
an assumption that the House will recon.
slider it's action OF the subject. On Thurs.
day afternoon the Sundry Civil bill will be
called up and it is probable that the re.
mainder OF the week will be consumed in it's
consideration.
In the Senate Mr.. Beck intends to-mor-
row to insist upon action on the bill to
prohibit members OF Congress from acting
as attorneys for subsidized railroads. II
was passed BY a large majority and with
out debate, but is held upon the table by
Senator Hawley's motion to reconsider the
the former vote. This motion ia not de-
batable under the rules, but they may not
be enforced, since Senator Beck has ex-
pressed a willingness to hear what the op-
p%onents OF the measure have to say.
1t is likely that most of the week
will be spent in the consideration of the
following measures: The bill to repeal the
Presumption law: the P~ostofice and Leeis-
.ative Appropriation bills and the bill Tor
5he relief of Fitz John Porter. II any
line remains after these measures are dis
posed OF. a day or o may be devoted to
'he miscellaneous calendar under the five
minute rule, or the Senate may proceed to
liscuss and act upon the Des Moines River (
'eto and the Open Executive Session reso- !
ution which stands next after the Pre- /
'mPtion Repeal bill upon the caucus order /
business. The River and Harbor bill I
'ill probably be ready to be reported to-
morrow or Tuesday but the Commerce |
ommittee has not indicated its purpose TO
all it up this week.
