Senate Du- ring the morning hour several bills were introduced and referred. . Ihe coiisideratinn of the bill to en able Indians to become citizens of the United States was resumed. It was discussed by Whyte, Thurman and Ingalls. The House is still discussing the Paris Exposition. The committee on Privileges and Elections real the Spofford-Kellogg papers and adjourned to meet after the session. Senate In the Finance committee the silver bill men carried their point. The bill will be reported to-morrow to the Senate, with some immaterial amendment?. NIGHT DISPATCHES. The committee on Foreign Relations gave a partial consideration to ttie nominations of Seaford, to Belgium, and HiLiard, to Brazil. No expression of opinion is given beyond that there were matters connected with both nominations meriting consideration. Capt Frank Monroe, of the marine corps, is dead. ihe Secretary of the Treasury, reply ing to a question from the House, says the metric system may be used hy the beginning of ihe next fiscal year for customs and pogtomcep, and on toe comniencemt-nt of the fiscal year for 1881 may be used in all public and private business. The President has issued general order, number 104, against diuuken ness, saying no person addicted to it can expect to be entrusted with any responsible duty. A tuli cabinet considered tne lew appointments remaining, but made none. House The House spent the whole day discussing and voting on the amendments proposed to the Pari Ex p sition bill, and finally passed the bill by a majority ot 14. ib accepts tne invitation of the French government, provides for the appointment of coin- missioners irum euuii oiate uu it iri tory, allows the use of one or more vessels of war, and appropriates $150,- 000. There were no Southern nomina tions to day.

Senate The bill tor the natumnza tion of Indians was postponed to De cember. During the debate benator Thurman said he taw no necessity for the pussage of this bill. There whs nothine in our laws now to exclude an Indian from naturalization, the word Htnkifo" Viftvinor hppn stricken out. The provision in this bill a'lowing an Indian to retain his tribal interests would work mischief- It would enable the Indian to become a citizen and at the pame time give him the benefit of the immense sums annually distributed to his tribe by the government. He was anorehensive th.it the bill, if it should . . . . . i ..i , become law, nugnigive a niue irouoie if that chief, Sitting Bull, or, &s the French call him , Boref Asseyant, should hannen to come over on this side of the line. As our commissioners aia not succeed in talking him over they were not so fortunate as the commit Bioners who went to Louisiana and tolled Packard's negroes away. (Laughter.) If they had tolled Sitting Bull into this country ana one ot bis braves should become a ci'izen of the United States, and then claim a part of the annuity that belonged to Sitting Bull and his band, he (Mr Thurman) ventured to say that Sitting Bull would aav to him. not exactly in words, but . . a it ITT 1 ! exactiv with me idea: " unuer wnicn kine.

The motion to discharge the committee was unexpected, and several Senators who would like to be heard in regard to this matter, were not here to-day. The Senator, from Ver mont. Mr Edmunds, was out of the city to-tiav. but would return to-morrow. A single objection to-day would pre vent the consideration ot the resoiu tion, though he did not desire to make such objection.' Mr Thurman said ne had not inti mated that a vote on this resolution would be taken to-day. He merely desired to have it taken tip now so that it would come up as unfinished busiv nees to-morrow.

Senate. . .. . t, i, . , Paris, November 20.--The Official Journal announces' the resignation of the cabinet, which President MacMa hon has accepted. The ministers will serve until their successors are ap pointed. The; Republican newspapers com ment bitterly on the Senate's vote last night on the order of the day proposed by the Right, regarding it as the com mencement of a serious conflict be tween the two Chambers. The Conservative organs consider that the result of yesterday's proceed ings leaves the President's position in tact, as it places him above party strifes. Theyjrecommend the govern ment to keep within the proscriptions" ot the constitution. The result. of the yote in the French Setiate yesterday was cheered by the .Lett. The figures show that the Sen ate has virtually abandoned the cabi net as excluding five votes contributed by the ministers themselves. The cabinet commands lees than half the Senate. This is regarded as a sign that unless the Marshal henceforth governs with the majority, the Senate may be regarded as having also abandoned him. Foreign Miscellany. London, November 20. It is believ ed that Russia is disinclined to accept all the conditions demanded by Servia preliminary to her taking the field. The council of the Vatican decides that no power can veto the conclave's selection of a Pope. it is unofficially announced that the Montenegrins have stormed Spitza, but are kept in check by the Turkish ships in Roadstead. A London dispatch savs that in the case of the four detective police.iDspec- tors, John Mickhiohri Nathaniel Druscovich, Wm Palmer and George Clarke, together with Edward Froggatt, a solicitor, indicted lor unlawfully con spiring together to defeat the ends of justice iu connection with the recent turf frauds on the Countess De Uou court, the jury found all the prisoners, except Clarke, guilt , but recommend ed Druscovich and Palmer to mercy. The four prisoners were each sentenc ed to two j ears imprisonment. A. tutor to one of the Oxford colleges who limped in his walk, was some years after aecosted by a well-known politician, who asked' him if he was not the chaplain of the college at such a time, naming the year. The doctor replied that he was. The interrogator observed, "I knew you by your limp." Well," said the doctor, "It seems my imping made a deeper impression than my preaching." "Ah, doctor," was the reply, with ready wit, "it the highest compliment we can pay a min ister to tf y that he is known by his walk rather than by his conversation." A Shame. A Charlotte merchant advertises : " I have another lot of those Norths era cabbage. ' apples and potatoes on hand, which I will sell lewer than the owest." Now, we call this a shame. Here in our Western counties we have the fin est cabbage, apples and potatoes in the world, within a day's travel of Char lotte, yet that city h is to depend upon the .North for her supplies. The fault j'e not with Charlotte, but With our own people, and possibly the railroads, though of this latter we will not com plain, as we do not know the tariff for such freight. It may be low enough. But our people, who now have the greatest abundance of fruit, cabbage and potatoes, permit thousands to de cay and sell a little at a small price, rather than take trouble enotigh to put them up properly and ship them to market.

New York, lov 20. Julius Ker chor. a Lutheran, and his wife, a Jew ees, liying, being unable to agree to the burial of their child in either a Chris tian or Hebrew cemetery, agreed to cremate it, which was done at the chemical works of which the father is proprietor.

To be attractive is a dnty which every lady owes to herself, to her domestic circle, and to society, riot only should she endeavor to please in address and in apparel, bat, wnenever possible, in complexion and in feainre as well. Facial embellishment is to a lady as proper, and oftentimes as neces sary, as are the adornments of her raiment, the artificial graces of her conversation, of her demeanor, or other meretricious attrac tions noon which depend so much of her dominion and influence over man. The woman who permits herself to become un loyely, who resigns, herself hopelessly to the ravages of time, and the spoliation of her charms, visits upon her friends and ad mirers a sorrowful regret, that it becomes her to avert to the latest day. Of this social dnty, it may truthfully be said that she can best acquit herself by the nse of Gouraud's Olympian Cream. ..
