AS THE negroes occupy all The

AS THE negroes occupy all the
benches in the public parks at Rich
mond, as they do in Washington, to
the exclusion of the white people, the
city council of the former are trying to
devise plan by which those who pay
the taxes that maintain the parks can
have seats when they visit them. one
proposition is that half the benches be
painted black and the other half white
and that the use of the former be re-
stricted solely to negroes and that OF
the latter to the other race. lithls be
done ii is safe to say that no negro, no
matter how tired he might be, would
take seat in the Richmond parks, for
the negroes have been taught by their
professed friends, but real enemies. to
scorn everything that implies race dis
tinction, though that distinction was
made by nature.

by his party, and his failure oreport in

How THEY DINE IN JAPAN.-Dining
is not in Japan the serious business it is
in England or America. The japanese
do not meet to cat, but eat because they
have met, and conversation and amuse-
ments form the principal part of BAN
ouet. The Table says that conversation
need not be held only with your neigh
bors, for if man wishes to speak to o
friend in another part of the room he
quietly slips the paper panel behind
him, passes into the veranda, enters the
room again and sits down on the floor
before his friend. Exchanging cups is
the chief ceremony at japanese din
ner. Sake-a spirit made from rice,
resembling dry sherry-is drunk hot
out of tiny lacquer and gold cups
throughout dinner; and the MUSINGS,
who sit on their heels in the open space
of the floor, patiently watch for every
opportunity to fill your cup with
sake. When gentleman would ex-
change cups-which is equivalent to
drinking your health-he sits down in
front of you and begs the honor. You
empty your cup into h bowl of water,
have it filled with sake, drink, wash it
again, and hand it to your friend he
raises it to his forhead, bows, has it fill
ed and drinks. AS this ceremony has
to be gone through great many times,
drinking is mere pretense. Eating is,
however, q small part of the entertain
ment. We must be amused, and to
amuse is the business of the geishas,
the licensed singing and dancing girls
who are attached to every tea-house.
But the singers of q japanese dinner
only take the part of the chorus in a
Greek play and they sing the story,
which dancing girls represent or sug-
eest by series of postures. The
dancers are splendidly dressed, and
their movements are so interesting, so
unlike ANYTHING seen in Europe, that
we watch them with q curious sense of
pleasure.

ALABAMA Is one of the eleven States
which, it was stated in the newspapers,
General Field predicted would cast
their electoral votes for the ticket upon
which he has the second place. And
the Generals prediction in respect OF
the other ten will prove just about as
correct as it was in the case Of the one
referred to. The fact is that the third
party has been SO unfortunate in the
selection of its leaders, Weaver, Wat
son, Simpson, and the like, that most
people think it is even more impotent
than fourth party would be; and ridi-
cule attaches itself to its members.

GOVERNOR MCKINLEY made speech
in Nebraska yesterday in which he de-
clared that the high tariff is a blessing,
and not in disguise either. 1t unques-
tionably is to protected manufacturers,
whose profits it increases by sixty per
cent, but it certainly is not to the peo-
pie who buy the products ofthose man
ufacturers, and out of whose pockets
comes the money that makes those
profits.

LOGIC AND consistency never had
any standing in republican politics, but
nevertheless the fact that Mr.. Nelson
has been nominated by the republicans
of Minnesota as their candidate for
Governor is a little surprising. They
endorse and will support Mr.. Harrison,
on high tariff platform, and the en-
bodiment of the protective idea, and
vet at the same election will vote for
Mr.. Nelson, who is so much in favor OF
low tariff that as congressman he
voted for the Mills bill, and has not re-
canted.

TO-DAY'S TELEGRAPHIC NEWS.
ASSOCIATED PRESS DISPATCHES.
Proceedings of Congress.
WASHINGTON, d. c., Aug. 3.
SENATE.

There were very few Senators pres
ent when to-day's session opened, nor
did there appear to be any pressure OF
business before the body.
Leave of absence, on account OF Ill
health, was granted to Mr.. Kenna.
A resolution offered by Mr.. Petit
grew, calling on the Secretary of War
for report as to all army officers who
have been tried by courtmartial during
the past ten years, their rank, offence,
verdict rendered, and punishment I'M
posed was the subject of considerable
discussion. Objection was made to it
by Messrs. Hawley, Call, Bate, Man
derson, Palmer, Sanders and Proctor,
on the ground that full publicity had
been given to each case at the time it
occurred, and that the effect (ifnot the
motive of the resolution was to renew
scandal and to expose the officers and
their relatives to further disgrace, pain
and modification, without the posi-
bility Of any good being done by the
publication. The resolution was advo-
Gated by Messrs. Pettigrew and Davis,
the former arguing that the public had
right to know the facts, and the lat
ter claiming that the report might form
the basis of a radical and philosophical
reform ofmilitary jurisdiction. Finally,
on motion of Mr.. Henderson, the reso-
luton was referred to the committee on
military affairs.
The resolution for the appointment
of joint committee of the two houses
to examine and report on the COM
mercial and political conditions of
Cuba and the West India Islands and
their relation to the United States, was
laid before the Senate. Its adoption
was opposed by Mr.. Sherman as I'M
wise in every aspect and as an untriend-
ly act towards the government OF
Spain, and he suggested a comparison
between the proposed inquiry and a
like proposition on the part of the
British government to inquire into the
condition Of Utah. 1t went over again
without action.
The Presidents message returning
without his approval the bill to amend
the act for the bringing OF suits against
the government in relation to land pat
ents was laid before the Senate. The
President intimates that the sweeping
effect of the measure had not been dis
cussed by Congress, and says that it
would interfere with the rapid settle
ment of such claims now going on in
the land office and be an expense and
burden to the claimants The bill was
so radical and so indefinite in its pro-
isions that the President could not
give it his approval. The bill and veto
message was referred to the judiciary
committee.
The Senate then went into executive
session, and when the doors were open
ed, adjourned until tomorrow.

HOUSE.

There was no appreciate increase in
the attendance of members this morn
ing. No objection was made to the
reading of the journal of yesterdays
proceedings, but Mr.. Kilgore, of Texas,
objected to its approval in the absence
of a quorum The Speaker directed the
clerk to call the roll. One hundred
and sixty-eight members responded to
their names-one more than a quorum
so the journal was approved.
The Speaker laid before the House
kilograms from Representatives Layton,
Hopkins of Pennsylvania, Cogswell and
Morse, declaring their inability to obey
the summons sent to them yesterday on
account of their extreme illness.
Mr.. Simpson, of Kansas, rose to q
question ofpersonal privilege. lie sent
to the clerks desk the Congressional
Record and had read certain extracts
from speech delivered in the Senate
some time ago by Senator Perkins, of
Kansas, which Mr. Simpson regarded
as rejecting upon his integrity and mo-
tives. He stated (aftcr some time was
consumed in discussing his right to re-
ply to the statements made in the.Sen
ate) that he had not been guilty Of any
improper motives.
Then Mr.. sayers, of Texas,
moved an adjournment, which was an
tagonized by the republicans, and the
motion was lost 71-S0.
Then the Worlds Fair fight was re-
sumed.
Mr.. Bailey, of Texas, Immediately
moved that the House take recess
until 9 o'clock.
On this motion no quorum voted.
Mr.. Savers again moved that the
House adjourn.
On standing vote the republicans
were successful, defeating the motion.
The Speaker stated that the vote re-
Cured on the motion to take recess
until 2 o'clock, which called forth
soto voce interrogation from Mr.. Coop
er, of Indiana, 'NIr. Speaker, where are
we at?" This was replied to, uncon-
sciously, for he had not heard the re-
mark by Mr.. Reed, who, in a low voice,
exclaimed, "This is a day when Mr.
Bailey can take his pay without hurt
ing his conscience"
No quorum voted on the motion for
q rccess-25 members being in favor of
and 127 opposed to it.
The House then adjourned and
democratic caucus was announced to
be held at o'clock this evening.
