The House committee on pensions
has reduced the amount of the PEN
sion which it proposed TO give Mrs.
Sheridan to $500 year. Repre-
sentative Matson, of Indiana, voted
against giving her any pension. The
bill has also been reduced to the same
amount by the Senate pension COM
mittee.
Senator Hoar has offered a fesolu-
ton requesting the President TO- send
to the Senate copies of all cofHmuni-
cations demonstrating with the Brit
ish government against the eonduct
of Canada in regard to the canals
also copies of all demands made by
the President for the redress OF
wrongs done to our fisherman. This
is only little bit of fine sarcasm on
the part of the Massachusetts Sena-
tor. He knows very we'll that no
such remonstrance or demand is in
existence.
Senator Chandler used part of two
days last week in telling how the
Democrats carry elections in Louisi-
ana and Florida. The practices re-
sorted to are enough to cause every
American citizen to blush for shame;
but southern Senators are always
ready to defend them.
The Senate finance committee are
still working on the substitute for the
Mills bill. but owing to so many
other important bills being before the
Senate just now, the members Of the
committee have had little time to
spare in preparing the bill.
The Democratic party never will
lingly assumes the responsibility for
anything, so it is not at all surprising
to find them denying that they are to
blame for the present disgraceful
state of affairs in the house. If the
majority is not to blame l should like
to know who is. The majority could
have put stop to granting leaves Of
absence at any time had they been SO
disposed.

General Henderson then talked to

continued service with him on the

CUR WASHINGTON LETTER.

(From our Regular Correspondent
WASHINGTON. Aug. q, 1885,
Cleyeland's message on the rejection
of the fisheries treaty is still the all
absorbing topic of conversation here.
1t is most remarkable document
remarkable for the complete somer.
sault which he has taken on this Ca
madam question !; remarkable for its
tone of belligerence, and remarkable
for pure unadulterated gall (no other
word expresses it so well.) He has
suddenly discovered that the Repub-
licans were on the popular side of the
question, and forthwith he proceeds
to try and get step in advance OF
the Senate, This would be all very
good, if it were not for the damaging
fact that what is known as the RE
taliation act" has been on our statute
books for eighteen months this act
places unlimited power in the hands
of the President for the protection of
American interests, and while in his
message he acknowledges that he has
known of a number of instances in
which Americans have been unjustly
treated by Canadians, he has done
nothing, has not even protested
against such treatment. Now he asks
for additional power to retaliate, and
this is just where he has made mis-.
calculation. He has no intention of
of retaliating, he only wants to make
little political capital, but he will
find that the Republican Senate will
not be one whit behind the Demo-
cratic House in giving him all the
authority he wants, notwithstanding
the fact that he has lacked the nee
eSSary courage to make use of the
power unanimously given him by
Congress year and half ago. When
it comes to protecting American in
terestS. the Republicans are always
in the lead. now as in the past. If
Cleveland and the Democrats want
to join the ranks, even at this, the
eleventh hour, and add their mite to
the good cause, the Republican vet
Grams will give them cordial well
come, but they cannot rule the cam
paign.
The House is now in deadlock on
the Deficiency Appropriation bill, for
want of quorum, owing to the large
number of Democrats absent from
the city. The Eonse has passed
resolution revoking all leaves. except
those granted for sickness, and it is
hoped to have quorum present by
the middle of the week.
Among the other regular appropri-
alton bills still unsettled, are the Sum
dry Civil bill, which is still in Con-
ference the Army bill. which is in
the same condition, the House having
refused to accept the report of the
conference committee, and ordered
new one. The ratification bill has
passed the House, and is now in the
hands of the Senate committee. If
all these bills are not passed by Fri
day. another joint resolution extend
ing the old appropriations, will have
to be passed.
The nomination of Representative
Golf for Governor of West Virginia
by the Republicans has created
small panic among Democrats here.
They acknowled that the State is
now doubtful one. Mr.. Golf is a
very popular candidate, and deserves

THE yAzoo DELTA.

How Planting is Progressing Gen.
Catchings-The Tunica County Seat.
Special Dispatch to The Appeal
LULA, Miss, April 6.-The planting in
terests OF the Yazoo delta are greatly re-
tarded by the continuous floods of rain.
In fact, farm work is fully month late,
by reason Of the fact that the soil has
been too wet to stir. The prospect Of the
Mississippi river Overlooking its banks
the visitation from buffalo gnats and the
continuous local rains render the agrcult-
mral outlook decidedly gloomy at this time.
But the capacity OF our soil, coupled with
The pluck and energy OF our planters,
never permit such thing as crop fail
utr, no matter what the clements may
send upon us. While the prospects are
not now encouraging, il is q safe plan to
keep UP ones courage and hope for better
times. Our levees in this district are in
good shape, and we hope will easily resist
the flood of water now coming down the
Mississippi river. Col. Miles, the great
water prognosticator at Helena, is reported
as saying that the present high water will
not reach the flood of 1885, Some Of our
people have faith in the colonel even
when his prophecies are evil, but we may
al! gladly accept his late calculation as a
correct one. But the ways of the Missis-
sippi river are past finding out, for men OF
science and the greatest research some.

tiss' definition OF the Mississippi river has
never been improved upon by any OF our
men OF an aquatic turn of mind.

REMOVAL OF COUNTY SEAT.

good feeling and harmony prevails every

DYSENTERY MICROBES.
A Medical Discovery Which May Save
Thousands of Lives.


Chantemesse and Vidal report the
discovery of a specific bacterium in
dysentery Progress Medical, April 81,
1881. Working in Cornil's laboratory,
they have studied five cases of tropical
dysentery, and have found the same
microbe in the LESSONS and stools of a
fatal case and in the stools of four
others. The bacteria were found in
colonies in and between the tubular
glands of the intestine, in the lymph
glands and spleen. The organisms
develop rapidly at the ordinary tenn
perature, thriving on all the usual cul-
ture media. They are bacilli, with
rounded ends, and somewhat thicker
in the middle than toward the ex-
tremities. They grow luXuriantly in
sterilized water from the Seine. Fed
to guinea pigs, pure cultures produce
intestinal Inflammation and necrosis,
the stomach itself being affected. The
LESSONS are more marked when the gas
trio contents are rendered alkaline.
inexperienced injections cause death
in two or three days with peritonitis,
pleuritis and pericarditis. The liver
is affected in these animals, necroses
with colonies of bacilli being found in
the portal areas. All the LESSONS in
the experimental cases furnished pure
cultures of the bacillus. From these
facts, and the absence of the bacillus
in the faeces of healthy men, Chante-
messe and Vidal feel justified in claim
ing specific properties for this bacillus.
In commenting on this paper the Medi-
cal Nel0s says that, although the obser-
vations made are too few in number to
bring absolute proof, they are of inter-
est as being the first in which so much
has been accomplished. Numerous
other investigators have described
heterogeneous in dysentery; but
none, up to this time, have succeeded
in cultivating them. Further develop
ments will be awaited with interest -
