WOMAN'S AUXILIARY.-The regular
monthly meeting of the Woman's Aux
iliary to r. f. Lee Camp was held yes
terday in Lee Camp Hall. A good at
tendance was present. The new Off
GERS were installed and the president,
Mrs. O'Brien, made few neat and
well.chosen remarks. A number of
questions of importance and interest
were discussed. a report from the
committee on marking the graves of
the Confederate soldiers was presented,
showing satisfactory progress. Owing
to the inclement weather only few
persons had been called ON, but those had
responded very kindly, and had given
also much sympathy and encourage
ment. An invitation to the reception
given by the 18th Virginia Regiment
Chapter, U. D. c., to the visiting
Grand Division, of U. d. c., April %,
from eight to ten o'clock p. H., was &C.
copied, and the members were requested
to wear their badges. One of the
handsome paper weights which the
auxiliary are selling was sent to Mr.
BRYAN as souvenir Of his visit to our
historic old town. There being no
more business before the chapter the
meeting adjourned.

FIFTY-FIFTH CONGRESS.
WASHINGTON, April 7.
SENATE.

IL
The first business laid before the
Senate was the Presidents flood mes
sage, which was followed by resolu
ton offered by Mr.. Jones appropriating
$3.50, 900 for the relief of the sufferers
in the Mississippi valley and authoriz
ing the use of government boats, which
was adopted.
Very shortly after this action by the
Senate tine House resolution increasing
the appropriation for the flood sufferers
to 100000, and including in the ap.
preparation the overlooked districts in
North Dakota and Minnesota, in the
valley of the Red River of the North,
was received aud adopted by the SEN
ate and the Senate's own resolution
was reconsidered and indefinitely post
poned.
Mr.. Earle's resolution, to reorganize
the Senate committees, was lad over
until 10 morrow at the suggestion of
Mr.. German.
At LOO p. M. Mr.. Morgan resumed
his speech on his resolution to recog-
nize Cuban belligerency and proclaim
neutrality. Mr.. Morgan's speech was
entirely Invested of any aggressive
statements calculated to call out inter-
ruptions. In fact, the Senate seemed
10 have taken the opportunity to go
out to lunch.
At Up. N. the chair announced the
bankruptcy bill as the unfinished busi-
ness.
Mr.. Hale interposed motion for an
executive session, which Mr.. Morgan
after feeble attempt at resistance ac-
copied without calling for the test vote
on his resolution. which he had
threatened yesterday, and without
his speech the Senate closed
the doors to the public at 2 p. m.
AT 2 o'clock the Senate adjourned
until tomorrow.

REV. ]. H. BOYD, who has been
made the presiding elder OF the Wash,
ington district, has not yet decided
whether he will make his home In
Washington or in Alexandria. Just
now he seems somewhat inclined to-.
ward choosing Alexandria as place OF
residence. His district embraces Wash
ington, and the District of Colum bla,
Alexandria and the counties of Fair
fax, Loudoun, Fauquier, Stafford,
Prince William and part of Rappahan-
mock. The Methodist church and the
people of Staunton generally regret
very much to lose DR.. Boyd, but ne
has remained here four years, the iuli
limit allowed by the polity OF his
church. He may always expect q
warm welcome when he visits Staun'
ton. He came to Staunton from En-
manuel church, Baltimore Stanton
News.
Mr.. Boyd may rest assured OF a warm
welcome should he determine to make
Alexandria his home.
