I W3HINQTON, April 30. SXNITI.
On motion of Mr. Vance the Senate took
Up the Presidents veto Of the bill "To
jfrovide for the promotion of anatomical
spienoe and to prevent I the desecration
off graves." The bill relates; to the
District of Columbia, and provides that
the unclaimed bodies of deceased pan
jjers,, now required by law to be buried
ait public expense, might be turned over
to the medical colleges of the District
bjf Columbia. The President , declined
approve the bill, on the ground that
pertain of its- provisions were indefinite
alad did" not supply sufficient Safeguards.
After a short debate the Senate refused
t! pass' the bill over the President's
y :to yeas 6, nays 48.
The conference report on Ihe Indian
impropriation bill was submitted by
Mr. Dawea and . concurred in by the
Snate. ''.;.
1 1 Unanimous cqnsent having some days
ab been given. On request of.Mr. Pipe,
that! Private claims on the calendar
should be considered this morning, that
oraer was enterea upon, not, however,
wthout a mild protest from Mr. Plumb
ini the interest of the postoffice appro
priation bill. ' ;
MrHBrown, expecting that his vote
wuld be different from that of bis
party on this question, felt that he
otfght to give reasons that weighed with
hiu in favoring this proposition to pay
a liberal price for the carriage of mails
tdjCentrai and South America. Under
the old order of tilings the Southernpeo
pl had been essentially farmers. . They
shipped their cotton abroad and drew on
iti land it was to their interest) to pur
chase in the1 market in which they .could
ge commodities the cheapest!. They
hai nojt looked to building up towns or
cities by manufacturing establishments.
Thjst; State of affairs .had,, however, i
passed away and the South .had now to
accommodate itaelf to the new order of
things. If they should all remain cot-
toil planters we would make much more
than there could be found demand for.
Indeed we were already making more
than there was demand for. Last year
we.anade smore ooiton than the world
wanted at a fair nrioei conaeauentlv
there; was no little distress now in the
South because Southern planters had o
pay the debts contracted in the; expecta
tios Jof receiving; an ordinary priee
for 1 4heir ; cotton Tboy had: not
received that price. ! This! i should
teaeli as to diversify the industries in
the peuth. i The South would have to.
plait ltas cotton and raise more of other
products. : The people i of the South
were beginning already to realise that
factil - In the manufacture of cotton
goods the South; had advantages over
eYerj other portion of the Union.; No
place in the world, probably, could pro
duce a good quality of coarse' cottons so
chelply as the South could now do. The
North has to pay freight on raw cotton
for I distance of one thousand miles.
while it cost the
South almost nothing
the mill. The South
to get cotton to
hadja more genial climate; its oners-
tiyes did not need Such expensive oToth
ingi
as in a ' Cold climate; ; they
needed less fuel. Tho time
ooming when the South could
also
was;
compete also for finer cotton goods. The
time? will also doubtless come when the
New! England manufacturer, seeking to
ouua new cotton nctones, win go jo
the South to invest his money in these
factories. So' also with persons desiring
to invest in other manufacturing indus
tries!; I Coal and iron were found in the
South and as freight charges; on ooal
and; Iron were a considerable element in
the (iost of mnnufacture, it was clear
that; the South offered great advantages
for the investment of monej in manufac
tories.' Already; Mr. Brown said, one
eould get as good a gold watch made in
Atlanta as anywhere on the continent,
and so witn many otner auvanuges.
Asl to the proposition before: the
Senate,' Mr. Brown believed immense
advahtage would ; accrue to the whole
country from its ; adoption. While we
were; in such a manifest want of money
for our surplus products, was it not
sensible to make; this appropriation?
Indeed; was it not stupid not to make
it; wjts it not like subsidising a railroad?
In Btarting a railroad money had to be
invested in the track and roadway. In
this inatter the government had made
thesei ready to our hand. . We had the
trade and roadway and had only to put
on rolling-stocx, vv e could reach
an ' immense field; for our couv
mere! with a i Central and j South
Ameiican ; oomwferce of. gSOO.OOO,
000 nnually, of which we now had but
a one tenth part. ; xhe Jiingiish, French
and Qermans by liberal subsidies for
their imau service had secured this im-
tnens business and we had lost it By
a wis jpolicy, however, we could get it,
because it naturally belonged to us. The
only objection Mr. Brown had to the
amendment was that the amendment pro
posed (8800,000) was too small. What
was that "smount; compared with the
enormous advantage to be gained if we
scouted the commerce indicated f ' What
woulf one million, two .millions or even
five millions a year be,' compared with
the advantages to -come of that corn-
mere I It was high time we were doing
soineXblb toward; securing that, com;
merod. I , Thu ;W.as not a party
question, Mr. Crown said, and the Ben
atorstwho had arraigned the Democratic
party j on the question should remember
.that JUie liepublican party bad been in
chwrgtel of the government for twenty
live ypars and had; left this great field
uncultivated. i .
A 'poUoijuial debate followed, par-
ticipated in by Messrs. Brown, Dawes,
Plumb, Hale, McPherson, Allison,
Frye, Teller, Harris and others; Mr.
Plumb secured an Understanding that
the general debate on the bill should
close Monday at 4 o'clock. After some
skirmishing to secure an executive ses
sion and also to secure a session tomor-
row, the Senate at 6
journed till Monday.
o'clock p, m. ad-
Hocsn.
In the morning hour, MrBlanchard.
of Louisiana, on behalf of the commit
tee on rivers and harbors, called up the
bill appropriating $9,492 to supply the
deficiency in the appropmtion for the
examination and survey to ascertain -the
aeptb and width of the channel at South
ui us ibs 1 opt uiw. me oui was
Pea.
Mr. Hatch, of MiMOuri, rn behalf of
J ; .1.
the committee on agriculture, called no
the resolution setting apart the ; 13th
of May for the consideration of the bus
iness presented by thft committee, and
it was adopted. Mr. Hatch stated that
the measure upon which action would
be asked was the oleomargarine bill.
n response to Questions he stated that
though this bill was a revenue bill, the
committee on agriculture would attempt
to confine the amendments to the sub
ject matter of the measure and not al
ow them to extend to the tax on spirits
and tobacco. The House : went into
committee of the whole on the river and
harbor appropriation bill.
Mr. Warner, of Ohio, offered an
amendment providing that the appro
priation tor the improvement of the Alls
sissippi river shall be expended under
me uirectiou 01 a secretary 01 war in-
tead of the Mississippi river commis
sion and providing for a congressional
committee to investigate the work of the
Mississippi river commission. He would
be perfectly willing to vote money for
the improvement of the river but did
not believe in the plan of the commis
sion and he would not be surprised if,
after the glOO.000.000 which it had
been stated would be required by that
plan, had been expended, the navigat
ion of the river would be "no better
than it was now.
The postoffice appropriation bill' was
again taken up, and Mr. Hale resumed
his speech in advocacy of the eight hun
dred ' thousand dollar foreign -mail
amendment. He ; said the Demo
cratic party opposed the : appropria
tion through its leader In the Senate.
That was no light thing. An appro
priation for such a purpose Bad never
been opposed by the administration of
any other country, i We were looking (
or a market for ouf surplus produo-1
tions; a marxet waseaay for us, the 1
way was vicar, wo uvvuou vuit iucu a
provision as that now before the Senate,
ahd the Republican party would con
tinue to advocate the policy indicated
by that provision, no matter what the
Democratic party might do.
In the debate which followed, Mr.
Catchings, of Mississippi, said -the issue
squarely before the House was whether
it would call a halt and abandon all ef
forts to improve the navigation of the
Mississippi, for if the amendments were
1 .1. A jaaa :
aooptea it wouia oououess oe lonowed
by strixmg out the appropriation. The
animus of the attack was the apprehen-
inn rm H, Mft'af mum iwmtWAn that
nart nf tha mnnav wnuM hn .tmiiHaH
in the protection of levees, whereby
the Southern people might derive some
benefit.
Mr. Hepburn, of Iowa, admitted that
the plans of the, commission had been
adopted after deliberation, but it had
been adopted as an experiment, and the
experiment had been tried and proved
to be a failure. When the plan had
been adopted no one had dreamed of the
expenditure of money whiph would be
required. On Plum Point reach the
commission had expended for the revet
ment alone 819.99 per linear foot, and
ior cnannei improvement 924 per linear
-1 1 " t ACti . 1?
foot. .The Plum Point reach would re
quire more than ten millions and the
Lake Providence reach would cost more
than seven millions
Mr. Holman offered an amendment
providing that money appropriated for
the lower Mississippi shall be expended
in the continuance and completion 01
the work on Plum ; Point and ' Lake
Providence reaches. He thought that
Congress owed it to the country that the
plan of improvement should be thor
oughly tested on those two reaches be
fore any more vast expenditures of
money were authorized. ,
Mr. Holman s amendment was - re?
jected, but it was agreed that there
should be a yea and nayawote upon it in
the House
Mr. Warner's amendment was also re
jected. Various other amendments
were offered and rejected. A number
of amendments were agreed to, increas
ing the number of places wnere. pre
liminary surveys may be made, and
Mr. LeFollett, of Wisconsin, moved to
strike out the entire section having
reference to this subject, ino quorum
voting, the committee rose and the
House at 6.45 adjourned.

Kent told his 1.500 employees Ithat
after May 1st they need only work
eight hours ; per day, for which
they woUld be paid for nine hours work.
This concession paused the men em
ployed in other houses to demand that
eight hours be hereafter considered a

and the result, wai the formation of an
organization, jfroin which committees to
day will wait upon all the packers. "It
was like a bombshell in our cranks,"
said a prominent packer this . morning,
"and Kent did it ; all. The men were
satisfied.- They are not union men! and
they would have worked on right along
the usual ten hours had not Kent been
frightened and offered a compromise be
fore he was ever called upon to consider
the matter. His action amazed us.
Notwithstanding this fact other pack

SOUS PLKASANT RECOLLECTIONS OF ONE Ot
TUB PARTY.
Cor. of the Niwi ahd Obsxevis
Baleish, N. C, April 30.
In the short sketch of the visit of
Gov. Scales, treasurer Bain and several
other gentlemen to Avoca some points'
were not mentioned which were of great
interest to our party. Maj.; John C.
Winder, the general manager of the
Raleigh & Gaston, Raleigh & Augusta
and Carolina Central railroads, was
very kind in his attentions and escorted
the party to Weldonon a special car with
an elegant sleeper attached. There it wis
placed in charge of the conductor of the
Seaboard train and switched off a
Franklin, Va., about 6 30 o'clock Mon
day morning. The party were aroused
by a salute of thirteen guns, fired in
honor of the Governor. Capt. John
Btfgart, superintendent of the Albe
marle steam packet company, ; paid his
respects to the Governor' and; his party
and invited them to go n board the
splendid steamer Chowan, where they
were met by the polite Capt. ' Withers.
A sumptuous breakfast was served.
Every luxury of the season was included
in the menu and the tables were most
tastefully decorated with flowers.
; About noon the Chowan left her
wharf with some specially invited guests,
Capts. , Brown and Thomas. . Capt.
Bogart took charge specially of the
Governor and his party, and a royal
host he was. Every possible provision
was made by him for enjoyment and
every facility afforded for seeing every
thing of interest. In short his resources
seemed unlimitsd and all of his ar
rangements were simply perfect. Added
to this the day was perfect and the run
down the river will be long remembered
At appropriate hours dinner and supper
were served, in the same princely style as
the breakfast. Edenten was reached
about 9.30 p. m. Capt. Bond and Mr
Harry Skinner met the party at the
landing and gave them a very cordial
welcome. Capt. Bogart had ; made,
through his most worthy agent, Mr.
Woodward, the best possible ; arrange
ment, for their entertainment, i Half of
the party went to the Bay View hotel and
the others to the Woodard house. Here
unfortunately Gen. Roberts, Who had
contributed so much to the pleasure of
the party, received tidings of the serious
illness of his mother, which compelled
nim to return by the boat. The party
felt very deeply the loss of one of their
number and extended to him their
sincere sympathy, j j I : f
Early the next morning many of the
citizens in an informal manner . paid
their respects to the Governor . and at
.80 the party, reinforced by Messrs.
W, B. Shepherd, W. G. Leary,i Capt.
Woodard, Mr. Swain, of the jEdenton
Enquirer, and' many others, embarked
on a little steamer, the Cleopatra, char
tered by Capt. Bogart for the occasion,
for Avoca, the large fisheries owned by
Dr W. R. Capehart, who upon seeing
the approach of the steamer, came out
to meet the party and gave them a most
oordial; greeting. They went on his
Own steamer, the Marv Modre. and
landed at at his wharf. He took them
through hiajb nil dings containing his ma-,
chinery, &c , for hauling the: seines.
Hu kind attentions and his genial man
ner will be remembered and the pleas-'
ure of the party was greatly enhanced
by the presence of his charming wife,:
who acted as hostess at a repast, which
though entirely impromptu, was most
abundant and delightful. After dinner
Dr. C. took the party to his extensive
model form and exhibited his Splendid
blooded horses and herd of fine cattle.
The next day by special invitation the
party were to have visited the j Woods,
Evans and other large fisheries and
they had gone several miles on the
steamer when the weather became so
disagreeable that it was thought not ad
visable to go oh, so they returned, to
their regret. By invitation of M. K.
King, of the N. S. R. R., the party
went over the railroad to Portmouth,
Vai His brother, president King, had
arranged to give the party special ac
commodations but upon their arrival at
Edenton Gov. Scales thought he woulu
not be able to return from the fisheries
in time to make Connection with his
schedule Wednesday. At Portsmouth
the special sleeper, which had been left
at Franklin, was waiting to take the
party home. Too much praise cau
not be given the kindness of every one
with whom they came in contact and
especially Capt. Bogart, who manipu
lated everything with a masterly hand.
