WASHINGTON. July 3.-The unexpected pas
sage OF the Free Coinage bill last Friday has

corning the adjournment OF Congress-. Those

Houses in session until that measure shall
have been disposed Of.
The bill will DO reported to tho House dur

measure promptly.

LONDON. July 3.-The viGor Of mind and body
shown by Mr.. Gladstone in his Midlothian
campaign has already had decidedly bene-

whose belief in success had not been strong

Gladstone's influence was never stronger
than at the present moment. A gentleman
who knows some OF the inside history of tho
canvass now going on says that the skeleton in
Mr.. Gladstone's political closet is the interne-
