GENERAL FOREIGN NEWS.
RouIauzer Appears BilIous.

 PARIS, Jan. 3-General Boulanger in an address to the electors of the department of the Seine says: Those members of par lament who did their utmost to make me ineligible were beside themselves at the idea of seeing me elected. Really it is not for me they fear, but universal suffrage whose repeated judgments testify to the disgust which their incapacity, base intrigue they charge me with the most improbable dictatorial projects. When a minister I was overthrown under the pretext that was the personifcation of war. Now I am op- posed as the personi6cation of 8 dictator ship. There is nothing dictatorial in pro- gramme that demands constitutional re- vision by the most Democratic system by a constituent assembly. I challenge the Republicans to cite a single act or pro- fession in which ] have not plainly sup ported the Republican. But I desire, as France desires, something besides 8 com- bination of ambition and greed. France thirsts for justice, for equity, for disinterest edness.n

The churches and principal buildings in the city suffered con- siderable damage. The inhabitants encamp ed in the squares and parks. No further shocks having occurred, the alarm is subsid- ing. The civic feasts were begun to-day.

Fiftieth Congress-SecOnd Session
 WASHINGTON Ian &


 SENArE-Consideration of the tariff bill was resumed the pending question being on MT. Vests amendment to paragraph 313-to 1 change the duty on cotton thread, yarn, | wraps, etc., valued at not exceeding 25 cents per pound, from 10 cents per pound to 35 per cent. ad valorem. MT. Vance made @ | long argument in support of the amendment, but it was rejected by the usual party vote yeas 20, nays A. No amendment was ofer- ed to paragraph 314, nor was any offered to paragraphs 315, 316 or 317 Gall relating to cotton cloth.)
 MT. Vance moved to amend paragraph SIS, cotton cloth, not bleaohed, dyed, colored, stained, painted or printed, by substituting 40 per cent. ad yalorem instead of 31a and favor of his amendment, which was, how ever, rejected-yeas IS, nays 22. Similar amendments offered by MT. Vance to paragraphs SIS and 319 were likewise re- jected.
 MT. Pugh then proceeded to address the Senate in set speech on the tariff, in the course of which he declared that neither the House bill nor the Senate could or would be- come law of the present Congress. It was manifest that it was the organized purpose of the Republicans of the Senate to pass the substitute and they had shown their ability and intention to pass it substantially as re- ported.
 At the close of Mir. Pugh's speech MT. Vance moved to amend paragraph 320, relating to stockings, by reducing the rate from 35 to 30 per cent. ad va1orem and asked for the yeas and nays.
 MT. Aldrich appealed to Mir. Vance not to demand the yeas and nays, as there was probably no quorum present and as he wish ed to get through the cotton schedule to-day; but MT. Vance would not consent and he did not want the cotton schedule finished to-day.
 The Senate then, having disposed of three and a half pages of the bill to-day, ,sdj djourned aI o'clock.

VETERANS CANNOT COLLECT. OGeial Statements Contradictins Pri- vate DalxelEs Claims of Mileage Money Due Discharged Soldiers.

 WASHINGTON, Jan. 3.-The second auditor of the treasury has received a large number of letters making inquiry in regard to statement of Private Dalzell of Ohio assert- ing that there was $t4,000,0o0 to be paid to old soldiers and heirs on presentation of 8 claim for the money. Private Dalzell said that those entitled to this money were un- aware of the fact, but that each beneficiary had a claim against the government for from $25 to $35, made up as follows: First, five cents per mile from place of discharge home; second, 25 cents daily for extra duty between October s, 1869, and April l, 1863; and third, 29 cents daily while in prison or on fur- tough.
 | Second Auditor Day says that these state ments are so misleading and unwarranted that he desires to have them corrected for the information of all soldiers and their ! heirs. In the first place, MT. Day says, there Is no law allowing mileage to soldiers. ! The act of July 23, 1861, allowing fifty cents, | in lieu of subsistence, and if cavalry volun- | teer twenty-five cents additional for forage to each enlisted man for every twenty miles of travel from his place of enrolment to the place of muster-out and the same rate from the place of discharge to the place of enroll ment.
 Nearly all these claims have long since been disposed of and paid. Mir. DsIzell. Mir. Day
 says, has made claim for travel pay while on | furlough, but it will be reported for disal- | lowance. Mr. Day says that Congress pro- l vided compensation for certain extra duty to
 soldiers serving prior to June 8, 1868, and for an allowance for rations to imprisoned
 soldiers, but that nearly all these entitled to
 money under these provisions have been paid.
 It will thus be seen, says the comptroller, | that there is no good basis for the representa- | Ss l. lx-I n.I-1 III 4lEa. .k | is to put claimants to useless trouble and ex- pense.

The agreement be- | tween the mill owners to curtail their output one half up to January 1 has expired and no new agreement in ratification of the action of l the Milwaukee convention has been made, l but ma jority of the millers favor and will l act upon the plan, even should water-powel l and the market grow more favorable.

LONDON, Jan 4.-Sir R. D. Morier, the Brit sh ambassador in Russia, has furnished to the press the correspondence that has passed between him and Count Herbert Bis marck in relation to the Cologne Gazettes charges. He concludes by saying that al- though he does not share it, yet the belief is general that the Cologne Gazette's contrib utor has information from official sources and this he says is an additional reason for an appeal under his name to that publicity that his anonymous calumniators so treackerously issued against him. In postscript he says: '1 will never again notice attacks of the Co., logne Gazette or analogous prints.'

Dull Prospects for Legislation fin the
 House.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 3.-Although the House committee on rules today took action on no matter except the resolution relating to the Oklahoma and Pacific railroad funding bills, there was some general discussion in commit
 tee on the business before the House. In view of the fact that nothing was done o-day
 on the special calls it is considered improba-
 ble that any of these requests will be granted
 and it is likely that legislation will be allowed
 to drift along as it is at present. The Demo- cratic members of the committee, while will- ing to set apart days for certain of these
 measures, are not inclined to report resolu- ton giving them precedence for the reason that amendments objectionable to them might be proposed in the House. It is thought that the time of the House will be fully occupied for some time to come in considering the various appropriation bills and the Nicara- guan, Oklohoma, Pacific railroad and omni- bus territorial bills, all of which are special orders

Plain Talk About An Emperor.


 met this evening Bavarian Grain fresh from Munich and bound for Madrid. "What did you think" asked her, "of the young German emperora" 'WeII," she said, ''he's hard to read. He's AS ohangeable as bit of shot silk. There are times when he looks 8 ramrod of stiffness coldness and hardness. His mode of saluting at such times is curt and unpleasant; the eyes stare and-must say it.-glare. They are when he is in his stiff imperial mood, the blue-glassy eyes of the Highlander at the tobsceonist's door. There are other moods when he is all fun and heartiness. I asw him laugh himself in to violent fit of coughing. He romps with children, pokes in the ribs and ticklss princely lads, fiirts with the 1irty ladies and is tickled with the merest straw. Blood easily flies to his head and sets his thoughts in tangle. He hates bookish people and artists. They bore him. What he best liked after dinner was to get away to his own room and smoke with the young princes of Bavaria and the duke of Genoa. They laughed and talked far into the night. The emperor smoked cigarettes and quaffed selt- zer water. My impression of him is that he at once crafty and impulsive. He means we'll and will sin and repent 8 good deal before he has got much older"
