I IK CONGRESS YESTKUOAV.
. SENATE.
Washington, Aug. 27. Mr. Alli
son presented a conference report
on the Sundry Civil bill, and gave
notice that he would call it up to
morrow." , , ,
The Senate proceeded to the con
sideration of the report of the Ju-
' diciary Committee on the Jackson,
Miss., election, and Mr. Wilson, of
Iowa, continued the remarks begun
' toy him last Thursday.
' Mr. Walthall complained of the
periodical arraignment of the South
ern people for alleged ofTences that
; are clearly outside of the sphere of
Federal legislation. These attacks,
he said, were unaccompanied by
? any plan of remedy or redress. They
naa oorne no iruii uui tijujiuuuuiw
and recriminations, and had no ef
fect hut to delay the era of good will
among a reunited people, which
happily had come in spite of them.
Such attacks might always be ex
pected when there was any impor
tant political campaign pending or
approacnmg. xneir purpose m wa j s
was to gain for the dominant party
some political advantage by the dis
semination of partisan reports and
hitter sectional speeches.
At the close of Mr. Walthall's
speech the report went over without
action.
HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES.
' Under the call of States the fol
lowing bills, etc., were introduced
and referred:
By Mr. Breckenridge, of Arkan
sas, to suspend the operations of the
laws relating to the sinking fund;
also, to correct certain abuses aris
ing under the tariff laws in relation
to steel rail bars, copper, structural
Iron, and lumber.
By Mr. Mason, of Illinois, to in
vestigate certain national banks
which hold and use government
; money without interest, and to as
certain how much, if anything, is
contributed bv such banks for the
use of ' such government money to
the Democratic campaign commit
tee.-'.
Bv Mr. Davis, of Massachusettes,
a resolution requesting the Presi
dent to communicate to the House
conies of all communications ad
dressed by his direction to the gov-
eminent -01 ureal .Britain remon
strating .with that government
asainst the wrongs and unfair, treat-

of the Canadian covernment in re
funding to vessel sand cargoes which
Sasa through the Welland and other
anadian canals nearly the entire
tolls if they are destined to Canadian
ports, while those bound to Ameri
can ports are not allowed any such
advantages, and against the breach
of the treaty of 1871, whereby Great
Britain promised to the United
States equality in the matter of ca
nal transportation. The President
is also called upon for copies of any
demand made by his direction upon
Great Britain for the redress of such
wrongs, and the replies of Great Bri
tain to such "communications and
demands.
The House went into Committee
of the Whole on the Deficiency Ap
propriation bill. Chairman Spring
er nated the pending question to be
on appeal from the decision of the
cnalr ruling tne J? rench spoliation
claims section out of the bill. After
"cT"talTcTuilraa
provision was eliminated from th.e
Din. f - .
The committee then rose and the
Deficiency bill (without the spolia
tion section) was passed.
Mr. Hooker, of Mississippi,, intro
: duced a joint resolution authorizing
the President for a given period to
suspend theduty on cotton bagging.

N e wbern Journal: JohnShepard,
col., who works at Dr. Capehart's
mammoth fishery at Avoca beach
during the shad season, hands us
the following account of some of the
big hauls of shad last spring, at dif
ferent hauls, 1615, 1611, 1492, 1558,
1373, 1586, 1034, 1050. The following
are some of the best days work done
in catching shad last spring and
these followed in succession: 5103,
2386, 3226, 3381, 3833, 3608, 3377, 2410,
2416. We have been informed that
the total catch of shad at the Avoca
fisheries last spring was about
100,000.
Asheville Citizen: We interro
gated several planters from different
portions of Buncombe, who were in
the city yesterday, regarding the
prospects of thetpbacco crop in this
county for this season. In nearly
every instance the reporter was as
sured that the outlook was very
good for an average, if not an over
yield of the crop of last year. The
seasons, while not being over pro-
)itious for the raising of the weed,
lave not been much of a draw-back
to the growing crop. Worms have
been scarce, and taken all together
the crops throughout Buncombe
have not suffered from any of the
disadvantages usually incurred dur
ing cultivation. Cutting and curing
will soon be commenced, and from
several of our friends we learned
that quite a number of barns had
already been "fired," and curing,by
the new process, begun. Of all the
new tobacco brought to market so
far, the prices paid for the same
have been a fraction above those
paid last season, and warehousemen
seem well pleased with the outlook
for the season of 1888'89.
The Campaign Orcran.
The numerous newspapers of the
State have put on their war paint
and settled down to business, We
may expect some lively music be
fore November. The best campaign
Organ and one we can reeomhiend
is sold by J. L. Stone. Polite and
attentive salesmen will take pleas
ure in showing instruments and giv

lecting spectacles you should be cau
tious not to take more magnifying
voiver than has been lost to the eve
as in the same proportion that you
pass that point of increase, will cause
you further injury to the eye. Using
glasses of stronger power than is ne
