Mr. Cookrell said he dM not believe in the principle of the bill, but regarded 1 the proposition of the committee on ap propriotions would be disoused entirely from a public stand-point. It had been alleged that these amendments were for the purpose of destroying the civil service law. He maintained that the two propositions had no such object in view; that they would operate on. both parties alike and without any partisan ship whatever. First as to the provision in regard to age; that was not a part of the law whioh ; the gentlemen had boasted they had voted for. j, He ven tured the . assertion that if . there had been a clause in the act of 1853 to proscribe an American eitisen after he had reached the age of 45 from being eligible to public station there was not a .man here tdday who would say that he would have voted for anjuoh act How had it gone on? ft had got on at the will of a single individual aud there was not a man today who had the eourase to utter a sentiment in fa vor of that part of the regulations.

Senator Wil son, of Iowa, from the committee on postoffiees and post-roads, reported fa vorably today his Ibill to prohibit trans mission through the mails of lottery and other like circulars. The Democratic Senators held an or der of business caucus this morning. An order of business comprising twelve or fifteen measures agreed upon by the Republicans was kid before the caucus. It was decided to get up a oounter-list of measures for submission to the Re publicans, but the work' was not finished this morning. Among the measures which the Democrats will ask to have conclusion could be safely drawn that I included in the order are the Mexican . . - Tn I wt i n ' - i mi Eension ana not! springs uis. xne icmoerats will seek to have excluded from tthe list the bill introduced by Senator Hoar, known as the : na tional inquest bill. The bill is designed te give authority to the United States courts to investigate political outrages. The caucus appointed a committee, con sisting of Senators Beck, Harris and Cookrell, to complete the order on their part and confer with the Republican committee, which oonsista of Senators Edmunds, Allison and Conger, in order that differences, if any, between the two sides may be harmonized. The fol lowing order is agreed on by both sides: The railroad forfeiture bills, the bankruptcy bill, the repeal of the pre-emption, timber culture and desert land acts, the Des Moines veto and the pen session resolution. The additional measures proposed by the Republicans but not yet decided upon by the Demo crats are the foil wing: Bill to provide fot the adjustment of land grsnts t Kansas and to forfeit unearned liiads; the national inquest bill, the bills to prohibit - tue mailing tne language was inserted in tne regu- lations te exclude membera of one political party from examination. Not a man who had been removed from office in 1861 could make an application now, notwithstanding that he might have capacity for being an efficient officer. The very effect of the law was to prevent more then half of the people who voted for members of Congress from securing anv position in the classified service.

Perhaps I can best 'express my enjoyment and appreciation of the rioh social and literary treat furnished us by repeating what I heard from the lips of many who have for years attended the commencements at Thomas ville, that in many respeots it was the most satisfactory ever held with this institution. During the week the Liberty unidn meeting held its session with the Baptist church in the village, and Sunday the body repaired to the college .chapel to listen to the annual sermon before the graduating class by Rev. Dr. Hume, of Chapel Hill. The sermon was in every reqpebti admirably adapted to the lit erary and religious occasion. After the close a collection was taken for the W. M., to 'be; devoted to State missions. All were agreed in expressing their ap preciation I of the sermon by the use of many of the emphatic posi tives and I ordinarily extravagant su per lati tes of; modern use and coinage, all of which the sermon richly merited. Time ahd space will not allow me even a synopsis of the admirable discourse, so earnest,; apposite and instructive. At 6.6V p. m. a Sunday school mass- meeting was held in the Baptist church, where stirring and encoursgmg speeches, interspersed H with sweet music, gave fresh impetus, we trust, to this depart ment of Christian labor. At 8.30, by request, Dr. Hume preached to' a large and attentive audi ence in the M. E. church, increasing tho already favorable estimate from his sermon of the'i)f-!rning, of the Christian seal and literary ability of Virginia's son, of recent aed efficient addition to our beloved Diversity.

While there were no lofty flights or dizzy rhetori cal curls, there abounded what was much better, abroad field of good sense, wise thought and practical teaching, at tired not fin the invisible robes of meta physical erudition, but in the plain yet forcible, chaste and beautiful diction of the speaker, who thinks not with Talley rand that language was given man to enable him to conceal his thoughts.

Love of the marvelous is part of the organization of most people. An in stance of this came to our notice a shut timesinoe. Briefly the story is this: Occupying a modern throe story house in a thickly settled portion of a New Eng. land city, two families of ' more thus average intelligence and culture have led lives of torture snd distrust caused by mys- terioos noises occurring during the night for the past few weeka. Ckmincing about 11 P. M, at intervals of 5 to 8 minutes, un til 1 o'clock, thumps were heard sounding like the strokes of a sledge hammer against the sides of the house. Sometimes the sounds resembled a low rumble, then were louder, like the beating of a base drum. Pictures were frequently thrown down from the walls and once the house was shaken -to its foundation. Unable longer to endure the disturbancefor which no natural cause could be discovered, men- ' tal excitement prostrated some of . the members of these .families and caused them to leave their hemes. Public atten tion being called to the matter, the City Officials made examinations of the prem ises to discover a cause for these noises in defective water, gas or sewer pipes, but without avail. -They still continued and the house now unoccupied has become the object of public curiosity and ezyoys the distinction of the "Haunted House of Somerville, Mais,"- We think that the mystery which so disturbed these good peo ple of Somerville might be ascribed in part to their mental condition, resulting from physical exhaustion and prostrated nerves. Leaving this mystery unsolved, aa have all those who have investigated it, we turn your attention to another matter not mysterious, but wonderful. We refer to the success attained by Brown'e Iron Bitters, in its reputation ior cures per formed and Us luge sales. We make a special application in this esse jof Us ef fects in strengthening the prostrated ner voussystem and giving renewed vitality to the exhausted tired body.
