He asked unanimous consent for the present consideration of the resolution. Mr. Vest objected.

The report of the committee on Privi leges and flections on the case of the New York Senators was laid on the table, Mr. Garland saying that he saw nothing to dis sent from.

At 1.15 p. m. the bill to regulate and im prove the civil service was taken up, and Mr. Pendleton addressed the Senate. Mr. Dawes, and Mr. Hill, of Georgia, also spoke on the same subject.

The joint resolution was read by the Clerk and referred to the committee on the Judiciary. It proposes an amendment to the Constitution providing that all post masters, revenue collectors, judges, mar shals, and U. S. district attorneys for the district courts of the United States shall be elected by the people of the States in which their duties are to be performed, and in such manner as the Legislatures of the States shall provide.

By Telegraph tq the Morning Star.l Washington, December 13. Dr. Spitz ka's cross-examination was resumed this morning. Witness thought the appearance of Guiteau's eyes one of the strongest indi cations of his insanity. Mr Scoville questioned witness in regard to his connection with the Gosling case, and in the course of his explanation witness said he had upon that case been asked the same kind of questions by lawyers on the other side relative to what they termed the "horse doctor business," as he had been asked by the prosecution yesterday, and in both cases the questions had been put at the instiga tion of some medical politician. In the Gosling case the result had justified the po sition he (witness) had taken, that is to say, the prisoner died in the insane asylum from the same type of insanity that he (witness) had ascribed to him. After further question witness explained his position as follows: "I do not hesitate to reiterate my opinion that the expert who will in this Court testify that the prisoner is sane, is in my opinion no expert or is a dishonest one. " Dr. Fordice, broker, of New York, was the next witness. He gave at great length the result of his experience and study and his views upon the various type of insanity, bnt before concluding his testimony the Court took a recess. WASHINGTON.

The fipal decision of the Board could not be learned, but it will be transmitted to the Governor in a few days, LOUISIANA. Death Warrant Signed by the Governor Execution Postponed.

The jury in the case of Patrick Dolan, for the murder of Maurice Healy, last evening brought in a verdict of murder in the second degree. The prisoner seemed well pleased with the verdict.

By Cable to the Morning Star.l Vienna December 13. Twenty-seven bodies were removed from the ruins of the theatre yesterday, also a quantity of frag ments of bodies, such as feet and hands, which were not burned. London, December 13. The Standard, in a leading article on Mr. Blaine's instruc tions sent to the American Minister at Lima, says: "It may be absurd, "but it is only carrying the Monroe doctrine to its legitimate conclusion, to assume that by and by we shall see representatives deputed from Washington to control the relations of the Emperor of Brazil with European Powers, and the savages of Patigonia in voking the aid of a United States commis sion to compose their differences. It is true that Mr. Blaine has resigned, and Americans will no longer have to admire the glowing periods in which he has main tained the pretensions of his country, but American diplomacy is uniform ; it will be much the same whether the dispatches are penned by Mr. Frelinghuysen or Mr. Blaine. It is not improbable that President -Arthur may soon announce that peace is restored and a new protectorate established by the United States." The Pall Matt Gazette says: "The im pression created by Mr. Blaine's dispatches is undoubtedly bad, and it would have been much worse if the author was still en trusted with the direction of the foreign policy of the United States. We feel no apprehension that the attitude Mr. Hurlbut has assumed at Lima will be persisted in by the commissioner who will supercede him. The American people have too much to do nearer home than to set up as adjudicators among the South American republics. If any European power were to intervene the circumstances would be altered." A Paris correspondent announces that the Chambers ot Commerce of Paris, Lyons, Stetienne, Rheims, Bordeaux, Ma con, Colmar, Rochelle, Montpelier, Greno ble, Angonleme, Bayonue, Nancy, Havre and Marseilles, have pronounced in favor of negotiations for a French-American t reaty of commerce, ELECTRIC SPARKS.

The machine shops of the New Bruns wick & Canada Railway, at Calais, Me., were burned yesterday, with five locomo tives and other property. Loss $60,000. Halloway, the defaulting teller of the Poughkeepsie (N. Y) National Bank, is at his home threatened with brain fever. His defalcation, as far as ascertained, amounts to $50,000. The Directors of the Mechanics' Bank of Newark, N. J,, announce a plan agreeed upon for settling wiih the creditors and re viving the institution. The details are as heretofore indicated. A Boston (Mass.) dispatch says that re turns from all but two precincts show the election of Dr. S. A. Green, the Republi cans and citizens' nominee for Mayor, by 582 majority over Palmer, Democrat. A Chicago dispatch says that Emory Storrs thinks Guiteau's course and the general drift of evidence will besuflicieut to convince the jury that he knows the differ ence between right and wrong, and was not acting from any invisible impulse when he shot the President. I have the utmost confidence in the mails. Enclose $1 for two boxes, or $2,50 post office order for six boxes of Celery and Chanomile pills and I will tUke all risk for money and goods. Dr. C. W.

The leather market has been moderately active at easier prices on some grades of stock, ana from present appearances the small margins of the boot and shoe manu facturers are as likely to be remedied by lower cost leather as by higher prices of manufactured goods.
