After the routine morning business, Which waa'Tery light Mr. Call, accord ing to notice, proceeded to address the Senate ou his resolution instructing' the oOmmitte on public lands to reports bill to torteit ail ; railroad land grants not earned within the time specified in the granting i act or acta extending the tjnie. I .If -: 1 The general subject of land crants. Mr. Call said, was one of greet import ance. Urer loU.UUU.UUO acres of pub lic lands bad been granted to railroad companies to aid in Duilding their roads. In some ! respects Mr. Call would not object to sucn grants; A great public object had been accomplished, though it might have been accomplished with per haps greater advantage to the Deode. Some portion of the receipts from prop erty might have been reserved to the government to aid inthe eduoation or to relieve the people from the burdens of taxation. It was not, however, as to the general subject that Mr. Call particularly wished to address the Sen ate, but on the subject of land grants tn Florida. Mr. Call then ' gave the history of those land grants and the buildinsr of the railroads in Florida, especially in connection' with i the corporation known aa the Florida railroad company; Of the $1,000,000 nominal capital of that corporation Mr. Call said that not one dollar had been paid in caih except the amount paid by the State of Florida, which was 90.- 000. SThe stockholder! had eone through the form of making a formal pay ment of one per cent, but had Immedi ately taken back the money. Granting the act roqulred thai land should reran to the united States if the roads was not built In ten yeara, the road was not built then and had nerer beon built by the oompany, but was built by means of donstiona of other publio landa of the United States. The eomoany. however. had sold the right to every acre of land grant! whioh they had never earned the right to aome 7.00,000 acres of the best land In Florida. This. nur pose tad ! been aided by the United otatea court. Oourta should not be made tools of railroad corporations, and Congress should not permit the laws to remain in auch a oondiuon as to allow of the interpretation referred to which enabled a l corporation to pemeirate a -TilirlT r"-r-' 11 -;a be., was a Ciena or asaociatea enortt whether of capital or labor, but corpora tions should be restrained by law from accomplishing frauds. Mr. Call char acterised the operations of the If lorida railroad , company, (and of the United States court in aid of these operations, as the most extraordinary transactions ever beard: of in a free oountrv. The resolution, at Mr, Call's request, was referred to the committee oh ; public lands. . b- ? i At 3 o'clock, according to previous agreement, a vote jwas taken on Mr. liale s motion to strike out section 2 of the bill, which establishes the force at 0,000 men.

At the expiration of the morning hour the debate on tb silver bill was resumed. ; Mr. Bland of Maine, en tered a motion to reommit the bill, which motion will be acted .' on until, the close of te debate. He proceeded with an argument in favor of the free coinage of sirer, and gave .a resume of the circunuances attending the demonetization ol silver in 1873. Mr. Norwood, of Georgia, in a dry, sar castic manner, bore testimony to the wonderful knowledge assessed 'by all men on the question offinance, and paid his respects in a hum-roas manner'' to severaf gentlemen wb' bad Dreoeded himself to the satirising of the speech of Mr. Findlay, of Marybnd In a quaint way he defended the standard dollar from the charge of disbnesty made by the gold u en, and aitribited the aUaoks made upon it to the iofltence of Great Britain. Lombard strait said : The American dollar is worthonly 80 ceuts," and the street repeated:' "The Ameri can dollar is worth oily 80 cents." Lombard street said; 'The American dollar is a fraud and a lie," and Wall street repeated the insuli and said: "The American dollar is a fraid and a lie,'" Lombard street said The American dollar is nothing butbuiion" and Wall street repeated the sUnder and said: "Yes; the American dollar is nothing but bullion."

From this place they marched to the Chicago, Burling ton & Quinjuy yards, where a similar scene was enacted and all the employees forced out.: The men then rushed ou to the Chicago & Alton yards and upon arriving there were met by a strong force of deputy marshals, armed with Winchester repeating rifles. They ordered the mob back and called upon them to disperse. This the crowd re fused to do, and upon attempting to rush through the gates the marshals brought their rifles to their shoulders and threatened to fire if the crowd ad vanced. This cooled their ardor some what and they turned back, none the less determined, however, that there should be no work done in that oity whilo the Knights of Labor are still; on their strike."

THB DISCO VKRY HADE BT A BOY IN' UORTH CAROL IRA. Abingtoit, Vs. April 6. A curious spring has been discovered in Ashe county, N: C. In July, 1885, a wood cutter working some distance from his home told the lad who accompanied him to search the neighborhood for a spring, as the water carried from their home was too warm to be refreshing. Follow ing the stream by the roadside, the boy reached a point where the stream made a sort of horseshoe curve as it again came out by the roadside. This spot was a tingled mas? of briers and - over hanging scrubs, but the boy penetrated the thicket and following the curve, found .near the edge ofthe stream, but literally in its bed, a spring. He clean ed out the dead leaves, twigs, and other rubbish ,aaad put the spring in J 'running order'. "lit so doing he had tolthmst his arm almost to the elbow into the water. '. This arm was in a swollen and inflamed condition from poison oak, and been so for some time. ; ' The next; morning it was noticed that as much of the arm as had been in the water was improved. The change had been so sadden that its relief was attributed to Its having beon so long in the water on the preceeding day. The boy de termined to try a second application of his remedy, and the next morning his arm-was well. The boy's father then: tried the efficacy of the - water upon sores which had annoyed him for many weeks, and in a marvelously' short time was entirely relieved. He then concluded to keep secret the locality of no economy in poor goods. ine spring, snowing no one to go to it bttt; himself, but always keeping a sup ply of water at his house. The neigh bors swarmed to his house to try the magio water. ' Many were healed : of various maladies, and all were eager to know where the spring was situated. leoret, however, (ta dlMMTrrM SB ft.

C, April 7. -The Chinese minister at Washington i has oTsCaleffifyeV his suoeessor at San Francisoorat; the hands of the United States customs ofB cers. He bases his action on informa tion received from the Chinese consul at San Francisco," who, it is understood, alleges that the hew minister and his suite were subjected to unusual and un necessary annoyances and discourtesies on their arrival at that port. .The sec retary 1 of state referred the matter to the acting secretary of the treasury, who this afternoon, telegraphed to the collector of customs at San Francisco for a statement of the conduct of his officers in the matter. Some surprise is expressed: at the treasury department that the landing Of the minister should have beenattended by any delay or em barrassment, in view of the fact that the collector at San Francisco had been spe cially instructed to extend to him the usual courtesies due to a representative of a foreign government, such as allow ing free entry of his baggage and Cflects pointed by the Methodist eiroult rider to be held at the serine a certain Sun day. It is established that 700 persons were present. Ihe preacher told of hj wife's wonderful cure. In consequence of k kick from a oow one of her legs had been in a painful condition for four weeks. Within 16 minutes after the first application of this water she began to experience relief from pain, and after 12 or 15 hours' treatment the pain was eager listeners. From tnat day people came from- far and near, driving some times 30 or 40 miles in a wagon and waiting several days for a chance to, I fill their barrels Sundays from 300 to 400 persons were to be seen on the spot There is no house within half a' mile of the spring and no hotel fori several miles, so the neighbors, much to their annoyance and inconvenience, are fre quently obliged to take in the weary sufferers seeking these healing waters. The average number of persons visit ing the spring daily until the bad weath er : of the winter began is estimated at 200. During the winter the water has been hauled at considerable- expense to various places, where ready sale is found for it at $5 a case. In fact the demand has been greater than the supply, the distance from a railroad making a trip considerable of an undertaking. i Only a partial analysis cf the water has as yet been made.
