Immediately after the transaction of routine business! in the Senate Mr. Dolph moved that the Northern Pacific K- ,K. forfeiture bill bo taken up. Mr. Beck urged that the Senate take run instead the motion entered by Mr. lllawley providing for areoonsideratibn of the bill prohibiting members of Con gress from aooopting fees or employment from railroad companies that have re ceived .aid from- Congress. Mr. Beck thought this a privileged question.' The chair did not think it a privileged ques tion. Pending another motion tbe for feiture bill was taken up and MrJ Call took the floor and resumed his remarks in support of the . proposition to forfeit all lands not-earned within the time pre scribed by Ceagress. Mr. Maxey held that all government grants of raQroad lands should be for feited that had not been earned within the time prescribed by the granting act. j The Oregon Senators, Messrs.; Dolph and Mitchell, opposed the bill, because it would prevent the completion of the remaining seventy-five miles of the Cas cade branch, which is of vast import ance to the people of the country along jits line, and because they held it to be unjust and inequitable. A purely legal aspect of the , question of the govern ment's right to forfeit was discussed by Messrs. Mitchell, George, Eustis, Van Wyok and Coke. Speeches; Were also made by Messrs.; Hurst, McMillan and Brown. Mr. Brown said that the government had inspected this! road as , each twenty-five miles ; was completed and on a favorable certificate of the government's' agenu each section was accepted as complete, according to the contract. Whether there was a legal estoppel or not, it was very clear to Mr. Brown's mind that there was an equitable estoppel. The gov ernment gave no notice that it would insist on forfeiture and the govern ment accepted the road in sections as completed. The lb uncompleted: miles the Cascade grant constituted. the most important section of the road whose completion was of the utmost im portance to the people of the northwest. i Mr. George desired to speak, but the hour - being late the suggestion was made that he defer his speeoh ; till to morrow. w r :p A. motion to go into executive session was defeated by the Bepublioans,.as was also a motion to adjourn. ,': ; , ?

Lohdoo, June 14 Gladstone has is sued the following manifesto to the electors of Midlothian: "Gentlemen: In eonsequenoe of the defeat of the bill for the better government of Ireland the ministry advised, and her msjesty was pleased to sanction, the dissolution of parliament for! a decision by the nation of the gravest and likewise the simplest issue that has been submitted to it for half a century. It is only an sense oi vne gravity oi mis issue wuicu induces me, at a jperiod of life when nature demands repose , to seek, after sitting in thirteen psrliaments, a seat in the fourteenth and with this View to so licit for the fifth time the honor of your confidence. At the Isst election I en deavored in my address and speeches to impress upon you the fact that a great crisis had ar rived in the affairs of Ireland Weak as the late government was for ordinary purposes, it bad great advan tages for dealing i with that crisis. ' A comprehensive measure proceeding from that government would have received warm and extensive support from within the liberal party and would probably have closed tbe Irish controversy with in the present session and have left the parliament of looo free to prosecute tlx now stagnant work of ordinary legisla tion, with the multitude of questions it includes. My earnest hope was to sup port the late cabinet in such a course ol policy. January 26 the opposite policy of coercion was declared to have been the choice of the government, the Earl of Carnarvon alone refusing to share in t. The Irish question was thus placed in the foreground, to the exclusion of every other. The hour, as all felt, was come. The only point remaining to dc termine was the manner in which it was to be dealt with, j In mv iudgn-ent the proposal of coercion was not justified by the facts and was doomed to certain and disgraceful failure. Some method of V l a. governing Ireland without coercion ought as I thought to be sought fori and to be found. Therefore, I viewed with regret the fall of j the cabinet and when summoned bv hex majesty to form a new one I undertook if on the basis of an anti-coercion policy, with the fullest explanations to those whose aid I sought as colleagues, when I proposed to ex- W ' -MM amine whether it might not be possible to grant Ireland a domestic legislature and maintain the honor and consolidate the unity of the empire. i The government was formed and tbe work was at onee put in hand. . - You will now,' gentlemen,: understand! ho all failing.

GALVESTON Ilf ISJM1KEBT BABESt rSU HTOBSI. AUKKAT All 0nmnalaUa OT by Wla4 With th City Cut S W(r. ixiw URLBAN8, June 14. A severe storm is reported at Galveston, Texas. At present there is no telegraphic com munication with that city. Lines are all right as far as Houston. It is stated (hat a ' gale, reaching sixty miles an hour, was blowing at, Galveston at six o'clock this morning, and that the water was high; over the east and west ends of that place. A number of vessels were outside the bar but no pilots eould go to them and none can come in. St. Locis, June 14. A severe wind storm prevailed in Texas lsst night and early this morning and it is fesred that great damage ha been done 1 Ho par ticulars are obtainable, owing to the fact that telegraphic communication has been severed since 7.30 this morning. At that' hour Galveston reported the tod blowing at tbe rate of sixty miles an hour. ; t he lower part of the island on which the city of Galveston is situa ted was Under water. Communication with Galveston has not yet been restored. it seems tnat the storm this morning washed-away portions of two bridges which span Galveston bay and swept away every telegraph line running into Galveston, and the city is completely cut off' from railway and telegraphio communication. Munich, June 14. King Ludwig, who was recently deposed from the Ba varian throne, committed suicide at 6 o'clock yesterday evening. He had gone out for a promenade in the park of Berg castle," accompanied by Dr. Gudden, his physician, ihe King suddenly threw himself into Starberg lake and was drowned. The physician jumped into the water to rescue the King and was also drowned.; ) The. medical commission which exam ined the lat King Ludwig report that he had ordered a member of : the minis terial deputation, headed by Count ilolBUin, who called upon him to pro cure his consent to the regency, to be flogged until they bled and then to have their eyes extracted. Before his death the belief was spreading among the common people i of Bavaria that the King's deposition : was illegal. Tbe people did not believe he was insane. Precautions had been taken to prevent the populaca from rising to restore the King; .: There : are evidences that a violent struggle occurred in the lake between the King and Dr. Gudden in the en deaver of the latter to rescue his patient. Many footprints can be seen in the soil at the bottom of j the- lake; where the bodies were found and there are several bruises on Dr. : Gudden's face, which were orobablv made bv the Kine's fin- f;er nails. The marks eonsist of two arge and two small scratches on the right:: side o the nose and . forehead. These signs saow beyond doubt that a struggle took place. Commercial Epitome. New York Financial Chronicle. Naw Yobjc, Junejl, 1$86. The weather has been generally favor able to crop prospects, and in particular, copious rains in the Northwest have brought timely relief from a drought that threatened the crop of spring wheat Buoyant markets for cereals- were fol lowed by a sharp decline, especially for wheat; and in all staples the absence of sustained speculative action is stOl con spicuous and prices remain low. j ihe time has arrived when trade usu ally assumes a half holiday :aspect, and a full revival cannot be expected for some weeks to eome. Lard for ; future delivery made a sharp advance early in the week. Lard on the spot advanced, but closes quiet. Tallow is again dearer. Butter is steadier, at 14sl&e lor creamery Cheese has- been more active, llio coffee has declined materially. Ecfined sugars were fairly active.. Molasses closes more active. Spirits' turpentine has been lower, but closes j steadier at 34c, Bosins have ocn tinned quiet at $1.02al.07g for common to good strained. The speculation in cotton fori future delivery at this market has been ex ceedingly dull for the week under re- View, and the fluctuations in prices were within unusually narrow limits. The favorable turn given to crop prospects in Texas by the fall of copious and gen eral rains had a depressing: effect upon vvlues, but the statistical position, and partially favorable foreign i advices, to gether, with rains claimed i to be some what excessive in portions ; of Georgia and Alabama, prevented any material decline. The weather during the week at the South has, on the ; whole, been quite favorable. Further benefit to the crop- in the Southwest and in portions of the, West has resulted from rains, but in sections of the Atlantic and Gulf States an excess of moisture has given grass a chance to grow. ,Aa4br tireat IMsMter.

Nu merous errors and variations were dis covered in the old survey. In all Mr. Winslow: went over thirty miles of line. The greater part of the country is fine farming land, but near tbe.Uatawba river there is some land almost mountainous in its roughness. In a distance of 500 feel there are valleys 150 feet in depth. By Mr. Winslow's surrey, made with the greatest care and accu racy, he states, about 7.000 acres Of land heretofore claimed as South Caro lina territory, : are part and parcel of 'North Carolina. Most of the people in this territory Mr. Winsbw found to be very well .pleased with the change which throws them into Mecklenburg. They are in a strip of country far from the town of Lancaster, the county seat of the county of that omuc. By the change of counties and States they get within ten or twelve miles of Charlotte, their new county seat. Of course some of the residents in the territory do not like to le tve South Carolina, on account of old associations, &c. Mr. Winslc will today begin to make up the maps, &dw from his survey.
