Y asiiingtox, May 18. Senators Beck now hopes to reach a vote on the legisla tive bill by Tuesday, so that it can be sent over to tho House to have certain amendments operated on there and t:en be ready for tho President by Thursday or r ritlay. 1 he veto on the supervisors? clause is now being prepared, aud some of the stalwarts are urging a veto of the test oath repeal, thinking they might as well go tho whole Rwiue as yield one par ticular in the bill of popular rights. The frcsedelt, closest fneuds don t believe In cm ba prevailed on to accept this much dictation, as he has frequently said he fa vored the repeal at least of the oath busi ness, butrothers think this only indicates that he will not do so now, when under the party lash. The situation is still nn decided. Tho Western and - Southern Democrats are mostly solid for a stand 011 the army bill, not on the legisla tive, but there are some cowards in the ranks from the large business centres of the East. The bills will either be passed and Congress go home inside of a month or the dead-lock will last indefinitely The Tenure of the Army ; Lndonbtcdly, as we have had occasion to say heretofore, the riders attached to the Legislature bill are of more practical im portance just at tins moment than that at tached to the Army. But there is a grave difference involved. The Constitution does not contemplate the suspension of ei ther Legislative. Executive, Judiciary, as might happen for lack of compensation. The Constitution not only contemplates the alisence of an army, but almost directs it. The right is given to Congress to raise and support armies if thought advisable, but their lawful existence is limited by the Con stitution to two years. On June 30, 1879, the lawful existence of the United States Army ends, and the militia of the several States will resume the pot it ion assigned them by the wise men who made the Con stitution of this country.

One prominent physician here says that the hurry and straggle of city life, and the high nervous organiza tion of American women, lead to the use of stimulants, and that, as wine drinking is generally begun at tbe 1 i i l j . period of budding womanhood, it soon 4 " o , creates a fixed want, to the : physical and mental detriment of the subject. His practice confirms him in the bo- lief that 8 Urge share of the ailments i x 4t u of women are due to the cause, here f , . z described.
