Washington, August 9. Senate After the passage of several bills, on tbo calendar the Senate, at 11 45, p.-u ceeded to consideration of the flalv -ies treaty in open executive sesatau, and Mr.'Evafts resumed his spoeV , begun yesterday, against its ratifica tion. After he had spoken for two htnir-i, Mr. Evarta yielded the floor tempo rarily to allow Mr, Hawley to )nlro dace a Concurrent resolution that the members of both houses shall attend the funeral of Gen. Sheridan on Sat urday next at 10 a. m., and that, as a further mark of respect to the mem ory of the deceased, the two houses, when they adjourn on Friday, shall adjourn to -meet Monday next. The resolution Was agreed to, and Mr, Evarts resumed his argument against the fisheries treaty. Mr. Evarts con cluded by saying that he had pre pared a comment on the terms of the treaty itself (and, he hoped, not an unfair one), but he would forbear to proceed with it; at present. The pending; question was the reso lution for postponement till Decern-: ber next and a critical examination of the articles of the treaty would more properly find its place when that reso- tution was disposed of and when the treaty itself was before the Senate for actjon. Mr. Evarts ceased speak-: ing at half past three and then the' discussion turning on President7 Grant s mesBoge to the Senate with a proposed treaty on the same subject was taken up by Mr. Morgan, who ; declared that President Grant had on that occasion given counsel in favor of the true and wise policy, and no v spoke from his grave better than any Senator had done in this discussion., Messrs. Frye, Hoar and Bla:r, also took part in the discussion, which: in its later stage became principally an ' interchange of left-handed compli ments between Messrs. Morgan and Blair. - The day's discussion came to a close and the Senate adjourned at 5 50 p. m. HOUSE. On notion of Mr. Hooker, a resolu tion wits adopted directing the Ser- geant-at-Arms to make such provision for attending the funeral of the fate General Sheridan as may be ordered and adopted by the committee ap pointed by the House of Representa tives, i Mr. Cox, of New York, moved that when the House adjourn today it be to meet on Monday next. Lost 49 to 59. The House then proceeded to the consideration of the Senate bill in creasing to $100 a month the pension of Mrs. Ward B. Burnett. After an hour and a quarter had been spent in a vain endeavor to secure a quorum to vote upon the bill the House post poned its farther consideration until Thursday next- I A message from the Senate an nounced the passage by that body of t concurrent resolution declaring that the members of both houses will, at tend the funeral of Gen. Sheridan on Saturday next land that as a mark;' of respect to the memory of the deceased when the two houses adjourn on Fri day, it will be to meet on Monday next. On motion of Mr. Cox, of New York, the resolution was concurred in. The House then went into commit tee of tho whole on the deficiency appropriation bill, and discussion of the French spoliation claims was re sumed. Mr. Hooker, of Mississippi, advo cated the payment of the claims as a matter of justice to the men whoso cases had been adjudicated by the courts of the government s own selec tionl Mr. Turner, of Georgia, recalled the fact that the provision for the payment of the claims was placed on the deficiency bill by express direc tion of the House, although the ma jority of the: committee on appropria tions was opposed to it and had made an able argument against tneir pay menit, and the further fact that tbe committee on the judiciary had agreed to the measure, giving the right or appeal to the Supreme Court. He denied the weignt and force or tne judgment of the Court of Claims on this subject. The claims had been referred to the court in order that their validity might be determined on tne principles oi municip&i aiuu imoru- i, '.! - , r. c : i .3 ttonal law of the treaty stipulations He denied that the court had reached its decision on these principles. The court had stated distinctly that the jurisdiction conferred upon it Was peculiar and unprecedented, and pat under the : international law and ; treaties no liability attached to Ihe United States, and it took refuge be hind; tho declaration that by the let of reference, the political functions had been devolved upon that tribunal and that the court was, to a certain extent, made a substitute for Con gress in deciding these claims. He insisted that the court bad departed from its functions and had trans gressed the lines of jurisdiction which Congress had laid down for it, and instead of making up its judgment on the lines defined by Congress, it had taUn- an authority which had ntver been given it, and attempted to define the obligation of the govern ment from a political standpoint ' en tirely. .

THE REMOVAL 8CINE3 XX TKOST NOSQCITT THE BOUTS OTHES NEWS By Tl'grp!i t the News aud Observer. Jersey Cwy, August 9. Conductor It. E. Mason took charge of the fu neral traiu from Harlem. At that place Mayor Rottsh personally visited the train, and although it was nearly 1 ''clock in' the morning, quite a crowd had gathered. After leaving Hailem the crowds at the stations disappeared almost entirely. At ten minutes past rive o'clock the special train rolled in'o the yaid at Harlem bridge. The tiain was cut in two here and the cars tracked side by side on thn Steamer Maryland, whiebwag to take them to Jersey City. At Harlem several New Yoik newspaper men, who had been waiting since mid night, boarded the train in search of information. The Maryland steamed silently by the busy city, exciting very liitle attention. No notic was taken of tbe funeral boat st the Navy Yard or at Governor's Island. From the decks of the Maryland could be seen the flags at half mast all over the city. The boat steamed into the docks at Jersey City at 7. 35 a. m., and the funeral t-aua was hauled ofl' and made up again. Mrs. Sheridan bears the fatigue well, having passed a reasonably comfortable night. She has hard work to control her emo tion at times, but she bears bravely. up The funeral train from this city will bo a special to Washington, making no stops except as may be necessary for wood aad water. A specit.1 funeral car had been prepared by New York people for the reception and transpor tation of Gen. Sheridan's remains to Washington, but Col. Blunt refused to take it, as he desired no change of the car in which the body repoBed. The train will reach Washington at 2 30 o'clock It left Jersey City at 8.20. A wheel mechanic named Smith, in testing the car-wheeiB of tho funeral train, was crushed by being thrown against the pillars of the Maryland. AT PHILADELPHIA. Philadelphia, Pa., Aug. 9 The funeral train bearing the remains of Gen. Sheridan to its last resting place in Washington passed through this city just before noon today in an absolutely quiet manner, and the pas sage was without a single incident. The fact that the train did not enter the regular Btation of the Pennsylva nia railroad and the entire ignorance of the people as to where the change of engines and the inspection oi tne train would be made, served a good purpose in giving the family of the deceased hero and the funeial party a much desired quiet and an absence cf demonstration. The train of five cars in charge of Conductor Branson passed" German town Junction at 10.40 and reached Gray's Ferry, where a change of engines and crews was made, at 11.08. There were not twenty-five people at the latter place, which was the only stop, and these were mostly children. As the train came to s stand still the guard of honor stood at paxade rest on the platforms and inside the car wh ch contained the casket and it required but five minutes to make a thorough inspection of the train and change the crews The engine, No. 75, which had brought trie train from Jersey City was quietly backed out and engine No. 93 in charge of Engineer William B. Waterman and Fireman Jamee Murphy, Jr , was coupled on. Conductor Charles A Thompson, assisted by Baggage Mas ter James W. Colw6ll, Brakeman Mor rison and Flagman E J war J Peataon, took charge of the train and in almost a twinkling it had resumed fits sad journey. Road Master of Engines Asa Odenio, who Las been an engineer for dO years, mounted the cab of engine 93 and will hold the throttle until tho train reaches Washington, which will be about 3 o'olock, the run being ordered to be made in three hours and forty minutes. Like the crew which brought the train in to the city the outgoing crew were selected from among those who had seen service in the field with the dead general. Con ductor Thompson served throughout the war in the Sixth Army Corps, the 95 th PennsylvauiaYolunteers,and was with Sheridan daring the Shenandoah Valley campaign, participating with him in the battles of Winchester and Cedar Creek, as well as many others. Flagman Pearson served' in the Fif th Corps,l J8th Pennsylvania Volunteers, and was with Sheridan at Five Forks and Hatcher's Run and was also at Appomattox when Lee surrendered. Baggage Mas ter Colwell, while he did not see any army service was Selected for this occasion by reason of his having served in a similar capacity when the romams of Charles bumner were brought from- Washington on their way to Boston. Both engines, 75 and 93, were tastefully, though not elabo rately, decorated with emblems of mourning, and presented a beautiful, although sombre, appearance. AT WASHINGTON. Washington, D. C , Aug. 9 A spe cial train bearing the body of Gfn . Sheridan aud the funeral party ar rived at the Baltimore and ' Potomac station from Notquitt at 3 17 o'olock this afternoon. It was met by Gen. Schofield and Lieutenants bawver, Blins and Pitcher, of hia staff, aboard of honor from the District of Colum bia military, the order of the Loyal Letnou and troop B-, of tho four.h cavalry. Captain Lawton was in command. As the train came into the station oigLi ecrgeama of the third aitilltry under command of Lieut. Dame?, mtrched up the plat form and formed a lino. Soon after the train stopped Mtb. Sheri dan , stepped out leaning on thjB arm of Col. Sheridan. The; were met by Gen. Rucker and Miss Rucker, Mrs. Sheridan's father and sister. They immediately entered their carriages and were rapidly driven away. As they left the station the arti'lery sergeants took the casket rom the car in which it bad made the journey from Nonquitt and bore it to a caisson belonging to the Third Artillery, which was draped with flags fesstooned with crape. As the caisson bearing the body left the station Troop B, of the Fourth Cav alry, fell into line in front and escorted the procession up Pennsylvania ave nue to Fifteenth stBeet and St. Matthew's church. Following the caisson in carriages were Gen eral Schofield and staff, . Dr. O'Reilly, Colonel Blunt and a guard of honor from the Local Commandery Loyal Legion, is the body reaehed the church door it was met by a pro cession of clergy and sanctuary boys singing the "Miserere " After the casket had been placed upon the cat afalque the preliminary burial servioe was recited, the choir singing tbe fu neral hymn. The interior of the church wa effectively draped, the feature of the decorations being the American colors, blended with a som ber shade of heavy folds of crape. The fronts of both galleries were cov ered with large flags, caught up at intervals with broad bands of black. Above the entrance on the front of the organ loft wore a grou of tegimental and cavalry fUgs fast ened together by a knot of black, with black streams. The altar was heavily draped. The candilabra and marble figures on either s de ware draped with black. Two silk Ameri can flags hung fiom the wall above the altar. The Cardinal's throno on the left of the altar was appropriately covered and the front of the pulpit was conceals I by heavy black velvet with deep silver fringe. Space had been luade in front of the altar by the removal of four pews on either side of the main aisle, in the center of which stands the catafalque, the same that was used in tbe funeral obsequies of King Al fonso held in this church on the death of the King several years ago. It is about fonr feet high and rests upon a broad base, which is covered with the national colors, bordered with a band of black velvet. The upper portion is festooned with black and is covered with an American flag, upon which the casket was placed. At the head of the casket was planted the General's headquarters flsg. The service concluded, tne little company immediately left the church. Early tomorrow morning a requiem will be celebrated by Father Kervick. This service is for the convenience of the family and friends of the illustri ous dead. A detail of two members of the Loyal Legion, alternating every two hours, will remain with the body until the funeral, at 10 o'clock Satur day morning. Yrllow Jack.

I found that at the fall term 18G6 for Wake county, His Hon. Daniel Ci. Fowle, presiding judge, that Generals Daniel E Sickles and Thos. Ruger, Jas. Bumford and Friday Jones were indicted for ob structing the process of said court. I also observed on 6aid records a requi sition from His Honor, the Judge, upon His Excellency, Governor Worth, demanding the posse corai tatus of the county to arret t these named parties. The facts are as follows: At this date the law of North Caro lina had not altered the punishment for all persons convicted of larceny. It was thirty-nine lasheaat tbe public- whipping post. "A negro was conyict- ed,and the Judge, in cempliance with the law, had ordered the sheriff to take the prisoner to the public whipping post in the jail yard and inflict upon him thirty-nine lashes. In obedience to this order of the court Sheriff Ray took the prisoner to the whipping post and commenced operations. Just as he struck the eighth lick in rushed General 8 Sickles and Ruger and Maj. Liumford and - Mr. Friday Jones, backed by a large crowd, mostly ne groes, and rescued the prisoner, took him from the sheriff and carried him away. The sheriff promptly reported this outrage to the . court. At this juncture Hon. Sion H. Rogers, the Attorney-General, came into court- Judge Fowle said : '-Mr. Attorney General, do youknow of any inter ference on the part of any one with the sentence of this courtt ' TheAttor- hey General replied that he had wit nessetfFthe interference, described its manner aud form, and named the par ties. Judge Fowle immediately said "Mr. Attorney General, have the grand jurV brought into court." This being done, he recited to them the facts and said: "I direct you,gentlemeu of the grand jury, to retire to your room and find bills of indictment agaltst Daniel E. Sickles and Thomas Ruger and James liumford, omcers of the United States army, and Fri day Jones, colored, a cU 'zen of Wake county, wbo have, with v - Ince, out raged the laws of North Carolina." This was done, and a capias was issued for the arrest of the parties- Sheriff Ray proceeded at once to Gen. Ruger 's headquarters at the old Palace, and approachii g Gen. Rucrer, said: "Gen. Ruger, I have come by order of the Court to arrest you. here is that order. Gen. Ruger said : "Do you see those bayonets? do you see those meiit I Will not be arrested; if yon hide you can arrest me proceed at your pleas ure, and at the risk of your life. Sheriff Ray appeared in oourt, re lated the result, and made known his inability to carry out the order of said court. Judge Fowle, when the sheriff had concluded, said: "Mr. Clerk, take your pen and write as I shall dictate: To His Excellency, J. Worth, Gov ernor of North Carolina: Eir: The process of this court has been illegally interfered with and. a prisoner has been rescued from the sheriff by Daniel E. Sickles and Thomas Ruger and James Buford, of the United States army, and Friday Jones, colored, late a citizen of Wake county. I demand that you call out the whole power of this county to up hold the honor and integrity of the laws of North Carolina, and secure the arrest of these said parties. (Signed) Dan'l G. Fowl's, Judge. This communication was sent at the moment by Judge Fowle to Goy ernor Worth, ihe old hero was alarmed at the situation, which seemed to him an approaching con flict between the State and Federal authority. He, too, loved North Gar olina. "Sir," he said, ' this will never do Tbe attempt to arrest these men will force a collision, and bloodshed will follow this act. This hot headed vomit? iudare will ruin our Deoole. vill go at once and settle this matter through President Johnson." The next day found him in the President' office. When he had concluded his statement the President said :' "Sir. do I understand you to say chat hot-headed young judge of your State has dared to order the arrest ox i United States officer t" "Yes, sir, said Governor Worth. "Then God bless that hot-headed young judge and every other one like him in North Car olina, said President J ohnson, and lm mediately added, "Mr. Secretary, ask the Secretary of War to coma to my office." As be entered, the President Bternly said "Mr Secretary, tele graph at one to KahigU and direct t.. . . . . . 13 . "cu- gw r.'iurn i:rat prinontr to the sheriff of Wake- cuntr, and di- . rect Gen.
