TTaaunn nf. TawaJ thrminon rawed the point of brdisr that the amend ments must' first 'be considered in committee of the Whole. The bill was an important one, affecting as it did the construction of new naval cruisers, and ha did not think that the House should, pro forma, express non-concurrence in the amendments. The Speaker sustained the point of order and the bill was referred to committee of the Whole. Randall said he would not now go into com mittee, as he had agreed not to inter fere with the tariff bill at this time. The action of the Appropriations committee in recommending non- concurrence in the amendments was to expedite the appropriation bills and secure an earlv adjournment. Townshend, of Illinois, from the same committee,, reported duck tne po8toffice appropriation bill with the Senate amendments and moved non concurrence in those amendments. On the point of order raised by Kas son, this bill' and amendments were also referred to committee of the whole.

The committee in debate assumed the same political character that it presented when the bill was upon its original passage. Dorsheimer, of New York, f as granted five minutes of Randall's time. When the gayel ; fell at the expiration of the live minutes and Randall rose to reply, Dorsheimer in terrupted him to say that the gentle man had promised to yield to nisi fif teen minutes. Randall denied making such, an agreement, saying that he had promised to yield to the gentle man such time as he could, depen dent upon the time consumed by Reed and Calkins. Uuite an angry dispute arose between the gentlemen upon this point, in the course of which Randall said that the gentleman from New York did not understand him as yielding fifteen minutes. Dorsheimer repeated that he did so understand Randall Upon this issue of veracity each gentleman adhered, to his origi nal statement, put his word against the other, and left the House to form its own judgment. I Henly, of California, corroborated Kandalrs - statement, and amid a. great deal ef confusion the commit tee rose, pending the vote on the lim itation of debate when the House should again go into committee of the Whole. -,n.i- The hour of 5 o'clock arrived and the House " took a recess until 8 o'clock, the evening session to be for debate on tha tariff bill.

The For the remaining few days of lovely March cannot be depended upon to please all persons. The streets of town will be dustv, the dirt will be made to circulate freelv by reason of some more March wind. IIowevert if this dust becomes unbearable the citizens will find three feet of mud just outside the city limits. And the weather for April will not be of such a style as to remedy the dust, or dry up the mud. However, ko will say that when it does rain, your roof will leak, if it leaked before, and when it does not rain this leak can be stopped with Mott's Compound Fire and Water-Proof Mineral Paint, and when this is applied will not only stop all leaks, but arrest further decay, and at same time renders the roof fire proof. The dry season to follow this wet spell will certainly cause rapid decay, and the roof will then be in perfect condition to catch fire from sparks, etc. We will protect you at reasonable rates.
