IN THE SENATE.
NIandersOn Elected President Pro Tenn
pOre-The Mail Subsidy Bill.

Henderson Elected President Pro Tenn
pore-The Mail Subsidy Bill.
WASHINGTON, March 2.-The senate
met at 80 this morning. The general
deficiency bill was reported. Hale gave
notice that he would ask for its consid-
Grafton today.
The agricultural appropriation bill
was also reported, without notice.
The credentials OF James Henderson
Kyle, senator-elect from South Dakota,
were presented and filed.
Frye called up the house amendmen
to the tonnage subsidy bill, moved to
non-concur in the amendment, and that
the request of the house for conference
be granted.
Reagan expressed the wish that the
house amendments be concurred in,
Objectionable bill from the conference
shics, he held, was not going to increase
commerce. The only way to increase
exports and imports was to remove the
shackles of tariff. The bill simply
named gift to the ship-owners OF the
country.
Morrill, moved to concur in the house
amendment.
Vest expressed himself as opposed to
all manner of subsidies. The subsidy
did not apply merely to vessels to be
built hereafter. The Red Star line,
with four American-built ships running
from Philadelphia, would receive
large subsidy without spending a single
dollar even for repairs, and the Pacific
Mail company would receive 100000
wear without further expenditure.
These companies were already making
money without aid from the treasury,
but at the risk of appearing inconsist-
ent, he was willing, if it would termin-
ate the matter and prevent the bring
ing in of worse measure, to agree to
the house amendment.
Cameron stated, as to the Red Star
line, that it had been doing business at
loss.
The question being on Morrill's mo-
tion to concur, Cockrell, Harris and
Reagan stated their intention to vote
against it. Vest stated his intention to
vote for it, because otherwise it was
certain the conference report would
make worse bill. After voting down
half a dozen amendments offered by
Vest, Mcpherson and Morgan, for free
ships, reduction of the subsidy, etc, q
vote was taken, and the motion to con-
cur in the house amendment for postal
subsidies was agreed to-yeas, 81; nays,
SO. The bill now goes to the president.
Sherman offered resolution electing
Senator Henderson, of Nebraska, as
president pro tem., to hold Office during
the pleasure of the senate, and German
offered resolution rendering the thanks
of the senate to Ingalls, for the "em-
inently courteous, dignifed, able and
absolutely impartial manner in which
he presided over the deliberations and
performed the duties of president pro
tenn.
Both resolutions were agreed to, and
the oath OF office was administered to
Manderson.
The house bill relative to the treaty
of reciprocity with the Hawaiian islands
was passed; also the house joint resolu-
tion appropriating 81 600, 900 for the inn
provement of the Mississippi river, to
be Immediately available.
Pugh was appointed on the commit
tee to attend Senator Hearst's funeral
in place OF Dawes, excused.

When the steamer started on the re-
turn trip the wind had brisked up, and
the waves had taken on white caps. The
sun shone still more brightly than in the
morning, but the passengers were not
happy. Old Father Neptune had been
good-natured in the morning, but now
he was determined to collect all arrears
OF toll, and to a great extent he sue
ceeded, to the no small disgust and dis
comfort OF majority of the passengers.
A few seasoned individuals and the
newspaper men, who pay for nothing,
were the only ones who could
laugh during the trip, in which
held back the San Pedro train for that
length of time. At length still water
was reached, the landing was made, and

and whizzed away toward the twink

to pronounce Avalon the fairest spot for
a camp in all the dominion of California.

'Tis here the maid of muscle thrives
Upon the rocky trail,

She weathers every gale;
Her face is brown, she has no fear
OF snakes or centipedes,
And in the catch of mountain trout
