Bold Scheme to Rob,

LOWELL, Mass, Sept. 15.-O. ". Peabody, proprietor of the American house stables, was called to his door last night by man who handed him letter, and while he was reading the letter the man struck him on the head with coupling pin, knocking him down. He was partially stunned, but re- covered, and grappled with his assailant, whom he held until the police arrived The man said he was John Kelly, of Boston, and an ex-convict. A decoy letter addressed to Col, Duprez, proprietor of the Washington hotel, was found on his person, and it is supposed that he intended to attack and rob both Mir. Peabody and Col, Duprez, though he claims that he was drunk and had no motive in making the assault on MT. Peabody.

Ice Hills of the Arctics.

Advices from the fishing village of Kersch- karanza, in the Kola Peninsula, on the White sea, describe wonderful phenomenon new in Arctic annals, which took place on Jan. 5 last. At o'clock in the morning the inhabitants were awakened by series of heavy, dull detonations like distant artillery. Shortly afterward great ice wall to the northwest, several hundred feet high, was seen to be moving toward the village, doubt less in consequence of the pressure of ocean ice outside. The ice hills came slowly but irresistibly onward and passed over the village, which they completely erased, and kept onward for mile inland The ice travelled a mile and half in four hours. The villagers saved their lives, but little elseeHome Journal

ga MOVE TO ADJOURN.
The House Democrats Will Caucus Tues
 day to Fix the Dote.


 WASHINGTON, Sept. 15,-A call has been issued by Chairman Cox, of the caucus com mittee, for caucus of the Democratic mem bers of the house, to be held ill the hall of the house of representatives next Tuesday even ing The order of business for the remainder of the session is to be considered, and also the proposition of Mr. Oates for an adjournment of congress on the 20th inst. Most of the members on both sides of the house believe that an agreement will be reached for an adjournment, but the day fixed upon will not be earlier than the 26th or 27th inst The Star has the following:
 ''The understanding is that the general de ficiency bill will be acted upon promptly by the senate, so as to dispose of it finally next week. The tariff question will be the only thing then in the way of an adjournment. Senator Sherman's remarks in the senate yesterday are construed to mean that there will be otariff bill reported to that body. The latest report, taking these things into account, predicts adjournment of congress within ten or twelve days"

He Says the House Need Not Delay Ad-
 iournmerlt for the Senate Tariff Bill.


 journment for the Senate Tariff Bhl.
 WASHINGTON, Sept 15. - MT. Sherman made long speech in the senate in responsel to the accusation of Senator Vest that the Republicans had delayed the report of tariff measure In the course of his remarks he alluded to the Mills bill as an abortion of a bill. He said that the Democratic party had been fourteen years preparing & tariff measure, and it did not become representa- tive of that party to taua1t the Republican party with it's tardiness. The finance com mittee, he said, would report a bill in it's own good time, and if the house of represent atives wished to prolong the session until the report was made it would have to wait until the senate committee was ready. He said that if the principles of the presidents message and letter of ackeptance were true, all the tariff laws should be repealed
 MT. Vest followed with a defence of the administration and its tariff doctrine.
 At 2.10 p. m. the senate took a vote on Mir. Blair's motion to reconsider the vote on the Chinese bill. ...s-,-
 MT. Blair's motion was carried: Yeas, 1S; nays, IT. No quorum was present; the vote again postponed until next Monday.

NEW YORK, Sept. 15.-Hon. Henry Wat terson addressed large audience last night at the Cooper Union on tariff reform the meeting being under the auspices of the Young Mems Democratic club. MT. Waiter son said that the Mills bill was defective from a free traders point of view, but he could not see why protectionists should object to it. It left the tariff about where it was when we were raising war revenues The bill retained concessions to special fntere ts which he could not admire, but it was bett ,r than no reduc- tion. MT. Watterson def Jared that he was not free trader. He fay bred tariff reform for the benefit of mar hfacturers, farmers and all classes

He Makes a Brief Non-PoliticaI Speech
 and Warmly Welcomes Them.
 INDIANAPOLIS, Sept. 15.-Many old soldiers returning from the Columbus national en- campment stopped over in this city Among them were Governor Rush, of Wisconsin, and Col James A. Sexton, department com mander of Illinois The representatives in cluded soldiers of Kansas, Missouri, Wiscon- sin, Illinois and Minnesota Accompanying Governor Rusk was his staff, each member of which bears evidence of his army service in the loss of leg or arm In the afternoon the visiting veterans, to the number of 800, called on Gen. Harrison at his residence, where, after brief introduction by Governor Rusk the general spoke to his comrades, say ing in the course of his remarks that the proudest city may well array itself in its best attire to welcome the Union veterans of the late war. Referring to that event he said:
 ''The war was an educator in political economy. These veterans, who saw the pow erty of the south in the developing of her manufacturing interests paralyzed, the skill of her soldiers and the generalship of her captains, have learned to esteem and value our diversified manufacturing interests and capacity (Applause) You know that woolen mills and hocks would have been more valuable to the Confederacy than battalions; that foundres and arsenals and skilled me- chanical labor was the great lack of the Confederacy. You have learned that lesson so well that you will not wish our rescued country, by any fatal free trade policy, to be brought to a like condition. (Applause.) And now, gentlemen, had stipulation that was not to speak at all Naughter.) You will surely allow me now to stop this formal address and to welcome my comrades to our home" (Applause)
 At the conclusion of the speech the veter- ans spent an hour with the general he shak- ing each by the hand.
