WASBTKaTos, Oct. 18. SlJUTB
Mr. Gray, in the absence of- the two
Connecticut Senators, presented and
had read a memorial of 500 eitizna
of Connecticut workingmen, wage
earners, manufacturers and farmers,
ia favor of the Mills bill and lor the
admission of raw materials (particu
laxly wool, salt, lumber, tin platen,
etc,) free of duty. Laid on th table.
- 'A resolution for a reeeas from next
Saturday to the 19th of November was
taken up, and Mr. Paddock moved to
amend it by making the reoess begin
on the 27th instant and end on the
12th of Norember.
Mr. Allison said that he had con
sulted the Senators on both aides of
the chamber, and thought that the
prevailing opinion was in fator of
adjournment till the first Monday in'
December, lie understood that the
Senator from Georgia, (Mr. Brown)
would offer a resolution to that. effect.
and if so he (Mr. Allison) would sup,
port it.
Mr. Brown thereupon offered a
resolution for a final adjournment of
this session at one o'clock next Satur
day. He said he did not believe that
the passage jof the tariff bill would
be facilitated by the prolongation
of the session. If the Democrats were
successful ati the coming Presidential
election something like the Mills bill
would be passed, and it the KspUbu-
eans were successful something like
the Senate bill would be passed, pop
ular opinion bn the subject would be
known after the election.
Mr. Evert spoke in faror of Mr.
Brown's resolution, and Mr. Padlock
in faror of the amendment offered
by him.
Mr. Cockrell ridiculed a remark-
by Mr. Paddock to the effect that he
and his party i desire the passage of
the Senate bill. That elAim,
be said, was perfectly farcical.
If the Republican Senators wanted
to pass the bill before the election,
the Democratic Senators would stay
with them, but it was a farce to un
dertake it, and the Senator from Ne
braska knew it.
Mr. Paddock said that the primary
trouble about! the matter was that
there had not been a quorum in the
House for six weeks.
Mr. Cockrell That does not mke
a particle of difference. The Hoftse
nas nothing to ; do with the bill new.
When the Senate passes this blJ,
there will be a I quorum of the Hodse
to act on it.
Senate that has!
It is the Bepublican
to do with it.
The presidio
t officer iniimated that
Mr. Cockrell wis
not in order, aad
expressed the
hope that Senators
would co-operate
with him in main-
taming order. ; i
Mr. Cockrell We wiU do it. We
will help you. (Laughter.) Do nt
(tp Mr. Paddock) trouble yourself
about the House. The House wll
take care of itself. Take care of the
Senate. Here is your responsibility.
After -.some further discussion be
tween Senators Cockrell, Paddock
and' Aldrieb, Mr. Allison said be
would accept the amendment offere-r
oy air. urown. a majority oi ice
Democrats voted in the affirmative,
while a majority'; of the Republicans
voted no. There was no demand for
division and! the chair after a
longer pause than usual declared the
concurrent resolution adopted
The announcement that the Senate
had passed an adjournment desola
tion was made jto the House at
o'clock and was greeted with applause)
by the handful of members present.
Mr. Teller offered a resolution in
structing the committee on Iniiari
affairs to inquire las to the truth of
the report that the Secretary of the
Interior has purchased a large num
ber of waarons for Indian aervioe that
were manufactured with prison labo
in the State of Tennessee. He made
some remarks oh the subject, inti'
mating that the complaint was really
against the late Commissioner of In
dian affairs.
, Mr. Bate explained that there was
not only nothing wrong in the trans
action, dui me oargam wnicn tne in
terior Department made for these
wagons was the best that could be
made. It was made after advertise-;
ment, and the oontract was let to the
lowest bidder. He saw no reason,
however, why the matter should not
be inveetit ated if the Senator from
Colorado desired, i
- On objection by Mr. Oookrell the
resolution went over until tomorrow,
and the Senate took a reeeas for half
an hour. '
At , tne conclusion oi tne reoess
(2 50p.m ) the Senate resumed its
session and pasted various joint reso
lutions for the printing of the agri-'
cultural report (100,000 copies) and
other documents, j
. Messrs. Edmunds, Dawes and
Faulkner were appointed on a joint
select committee to investigate the
work on the Washington aqueduct
tunnel.
The Senate then resumed consider
ation of the tariff bill and was ad
dressed by Mr. Aldrieh, one of the
members of the finance committee.
He proceeded to illustrate by refer
ence to an official statement of the
Bureau of Statistics; the utter worth
lessness and absurdity of an Attempt
to show the character of the House
bill and of the Senate bill by a sys
tem of ad valorem rates and percent
ages. The statement from the Bu
reau of Statistici was, he laid, not
only misleading in its general fea
tures, but it was entirely inaccurate
and misleading in its details; and the
bureau officials (if jthey had any
knowledge whatever on the subject)
must have known that it was.
Mr. Fre criticised statements in
Senate and House, as to the net prof
its made by cotton mills. Those net
profits had been pnt ait 85 per cent,
but the calculation had been made on
the plan of leaving oat much of the
expenditures, nan ai the cost of
tower, f ael and gas, salaries, taxes,
insuranoe, depredation of machinery
Ao. To show the falsity of such sUte
ments he read from a transcript from
the booki of a 50,000 spindle cotton
mill in his own town (well and care
fully managed) and which showed for
the year 1882 a net profit of 3 per
cent. Be asserted that the average
net df that mill for ten years had not
been 5 per cent nor 4 per cent, and
he knaw that the average net profits
in well eondooted e i-jM ju mills in his
iwn State had not . averaged 5 per
lent tor l n years, and woolen mills
jrere -ore tbau cotton mill. Nearlj
ball of the woolen mflla in the Uuited
States were today idle.

At the close of the diacusbipn the
House joint resolution to pay the
sessional employee of both beuses
their full month s salary for October
and to pay the month's salary of the
regular officers and employees on the
20th of October were severally passed.
The Senate then, at 6 p. m., ad
journed. BCCSK.
Mr. Cox, of New York, was in the
chair when the House met this morn

Mr. Farquhar, of New York, rose and
called the chair's attention to the
rule of the House which directs the
Speaker to cause the journal to be
read pn the appearance of a qnornm.
The Speaker pro tern laid before
the house the adjournment resolution
of the Senate.
Mr. McMillin, of Tennessee, briefly
reviewed the work of what he termed
the present extraordinary session of
Congress, detotirg himself especially
to consideration f the action on the

Various, indeed, are the opinions
held by a wide diversity of races re
garding their beauties, though it is
often difnoult for people bred under
another sky to share their enthusi
asm. The Circassian women, says
the London . Standard, who have a
sort of conventional reputation for
oveliness, are affirmed by those who
know them best to be far from
worthy of their Celebrity. 8hort legs,
glaring red hair, faces so long and
narrow that their heads seem to bare
been aqueeaed between two boards
and flattened, noses oat of proportion
to the rest of the features, and com
plexions of a dull, i lead-like hue,
scarcely constitute beauty according
to oar standard. The Moors and
the Tunisian Jews regard corpulence
as absolutely essential to beauty, and
the inmates of rich men's harems are
stuffou r t.ij'ritious food, like
Straabuu geese - the market. The
Chinese poets sing of deformed feet
as "golden lilies, and the rocking of
their -women in attempting to walk
as the ''wating of the willow."
Other race have equally odd ideas
as to what constitutes lovelinees, for
they improve" their persons by flat
tening their loreneads, tattooing tneir
skme, cutting on tneir , nngers, niing
their, teeth or dyeing them black,
blue, or eortartan, painting their
bodies, slitting their ea-s, compress
ing their waists, putting ; stones,
bone, or metal through their lips,
cheeks or ears, and in a doaen other
waya. trying to enhance the poor
f.
renltce work of nature. A Felatan
ady dyes her hands and feet with
hennah, stains her teeth alternately
blue, yellow, and purple, one here
and there being left of its natural
color, pencils her eyelids with sul-
phuret Of antimony, and dyea her
looks with indigo. The iijdah
woman inserts a plug ; of wood or
Ivory through her lower lip until it
represents the mdeous appearance of
a flashy shelf over her chin. A Chi
nese or a Siamese lady cultivates long
nails. A Hottentot belle cannot get her
nose flat enough, or a Persian beauty
hers high enough, , On the northwest
coast of America no reproach is more
bitter than for one Indian girl to tell
another that 'yoor mother was too
lazy to flatten your head."' Tattooing
is almost universal among half-civil
ized or savage races; in New Zealand
the Maori women, before they began
to imbibe European prejudices, even
tattooed their lip?, lest they should
have the reproach of being red. Some
races alit their ears until they bang
in loops on their shoulders. , Others
insert huge rings and other, orna
ments through the cartilage of their
noses. The Louisiade Islanders re
gard the . lid of a sardine box
, peculiarly , neat piece oi
i'swelry; and even European women
lave not yet ceased to suspend bits
of stone and metal through the lobes
of their ears. There is, in truth, no
possibility of arriving at any stand
ard of beauty, the "points" of which
would not do injustice to some of the
competitors. Even among the whites
there are various ideas of what con
stitutes good looks. Like manners
and morals, beautyis very much a mat
ter of sky. J uat as an Indian told
traveller what a comfott his son was
to him, because "he could steal more
horses than any boy of his age," ao
western frontiersman assured a visi
tor that his daughter was the "finest
girl" in the settlement, for she could
"heft a barrel of pork, and lick her
weight in wild cats."

It has puzzled the heads of a good
many youngsters to know how the
earth turns round. A German ed
ucational journal published in Frank
fort gives the following directions for
proving that the earth "does move:"
"lake a good sized bowl, fill it nearly
full of water, and place it upon the
floor of a room whioh is not exposed
to shaking or j vring from the street.
Sprinkle over the surface of the water
coating of iycopodium powder a
white substance which ia sometimes
used for the purposes of the toileU
and which can be obtained at almost
any apothecary's. Then upon the
surface of this coating of powder
make, with powdered charcoal, a
straight black fine, say an inch or
two in length. .Having made this
little black mark with the charcoal
powder on the snrf ace of the oontents
of the bowl, lay down upon the floor.
close to the bowL stick or some
other straight object, so that it will
be exactly parallel with the mark. If
the line happens to be parallel with a
crack in the floor, or with any sta
tionary object in the room, this will
serve as well.
"Leave the bowl undisturbed for a
few hours, and then observe the posi
tion of the black mark with reference
to the object that it was parallel with.
It will be found to have moved about,
and to have moved from east to west
that is to say, in the direction op
posite to that of the movement of the
earth on its axis. The earth in simply
revolving has carried the water and
everything else in the bowl around
witb it, but the powder on the sur
face has been left behind a little. The
line will always be found to have
moved from east to west, which is
perfectly good proof that everything

In the reign of James I- of Scot
land there was born in East Lothia, a
village a few miles from Edinburgh.
Sawney Beane, the son of poor, but
hard-working people. Evincing from
boyhood a hatred of all labor, and
displaying every kind of vicious
quality, he at an early age abandoned
his home and fled to Galloway. He
was accompanied by a fit companion
for his crimes in the person of a young
woman, a native of the same village.
The home of this pair was in a cave
of about a mile in length and of con
siderable breadth, the month of
which was washed by the sea, the
tide sometimes peneti sting the cave a
distance of two hundred yards. The
vitctims were waylaid under cover of
night on their way home from coun
try fairs, or in the case of isolated
travelers across the country, were
openly attacked in daylight. The
same soul-sickening, mutilation was
inflicted in each case. To prevent
detection tney murdered every trav
eler they robbed, and for years they
continued their horrible calling. In
this manner, the chronicler tells us,
they lived until they had eight sons
and. six . daughters, eighteen grand
sons and fourteen granddaughters
all the offspring of incest. After a
long career of murder the gang was
captured by King James, who, roused
to action by the long immunity of
tne criminals irom detection, headed
by a body of troops and succeeded
with blood-hounds in unearthing from
tne cave tne whole vile tribe, to whom
was meted ont a death agreeable with
the life they,had led. The men, says
the historian, had their hands and
egs severed from their bodies and
they were permitted to bleed to death.
The mother of the whole crew, the
daughters and grandchildren, after
being spectators of the death of the
men, were cast into three Separate
axes and consumed to ashes.

We assert without fear of contra
diction that no man of merit ever
came to xtaieign and engaged in any
enterprise Without meeting with even
more than anticipated success. We
are led to the above assertion by a
conversation which we had a few days
ago with Messrs. Drewry A Drewry,
the State agents of the idutaal Bene
fit Life insurance Company. These
gentlemen are also agents for this
company in the State of Tennessee,
where they have built up a large and
prosperous business, and although
but recently appointed agents for this
state tney commenced work with an
energy that guarantees success, and
aa a result their bustnera is rapidly
increasing, 'xneir company writes a
very liberal policy which neves fU
to attract the attention of the insur
ing public They guarantee a eashv
