Tliere i a white flint watt' in Halifax
county, Virginia, which is justjiow eu--gagiug
the attention of learned men in
J hat State; It is a very ancient struct
ureand the nature ind history of it are
the questions which arc asked, but not
yet satisfactorily answered. Some say it
is a. natural wall, like a vein or dike;
others contend that it is the work of hu
man bauds, ami so there is a difference
of opinion, upouwbich'au appeal was
sent up to Professor Campbell, State Ge
ologist we believe. The Professor sum
med up the evideuce in the case, and was
about to leave it as he found it sjill in
doubt-i-but tthe last moment before
, sendiug his tabors to the printer for pub
lication, received a letter from Di Cam
jngton. of Richmond, whose friend, Mr.
Valentine, had made a second visitr to
the wall for the purpose of a more thor
ough examination, n which, according to
the Professor's judgment, the question jjs.
to its nature is settled : Mr. Valentiue
dug down into the earth and . found a
well defined foundation where the wall
terminated, which at once showed it was
pot a subject far the geologist to investi
gate, but for the nijtiqnariau or h-cIkboI-pgist.
r : '
Ve are naturally reminded by nil this
of the "natural wall" iu Kowuu, of which
much has beenj written and published
heretofore. An attempt was once made
to find its " foundation or bottom ; but
: after going down 25 or IX) feet "the oldest
inhabitant? says no foundat ion. was
leached, and t lie Hearth for it ended. AJ
juorc ueauiuui, wen uenneu wall can
rarely be found than the "t nip dike" (as
it is now believed to W) iu Jiowau. Its
extent bas not beeu certainly deteruiined,
. thougir itj Las lieeu tniced for miles
. through the counlry by the nut-lying
stoues of which it is composeil. Scieu
tific geutlemeii of leisure woidd find it an
interesting subject for further iuvestiga
tion, and wo hope bouiu uue who can
nnoru to give the tune to it will veil
tell us all we want to know about jt.
Pne of the saddest events which have
burdened the columns of the newspapers
this week, is the death of two young la
ilies by fire, near Jouesboro, Ga Sunday

Mr. Lamar. Mr. Hresident, I desire to
make one statement personal to myself
iu reference" to this matter. I do not in
tend to go into the discussion of the ques
tion concerning this measure that the
Senator from New York lias been discuss
iu. 1 leal n for the first time that an im
pression exists on the mind of any Sena
tor on this floor that further time was to
be extended for the discussion, of the bill
which the Senator from Virginia reported
based uponany proceeds or upon any oc
currence connected with the measure
that! had'the honor of reporting this
morning and asked unanimous consent
to consider and have passed. 1 am not
aware of anything that occurred which
would produce such an impression. If I
had, although I would uot have Ihhmi in
strumental consciously in producing such
an impression, 1 should have felt myself
bound by it and would have uiade the
motion myself for au adjournment, in or
der; to give the Senator from Wisconsin
an opportunity to discuss this bill.
1 repeat, ) sir, that if I had imagined
thatjiny Senator had any such expecta
tion from anything that occurred in the
incidents of that: "proceeding, it woidd
have been my pleasure to have inade that
motion. In fact, sir, I was not here." I
W4 not aware of -the fact that the Sena
tor from Wisconsin had risen for the pur
pose of addressing the Senate. 1 came
.iuat a late stage of these proceedings.
With reference "to the charge of bad
faith that the Senator from New York has
intimated towards those of us who have
leen engaged in opposing these motions
to adjourn,; F liave ouy to say that if 1
am not superior to attacks from such a
source, 1 luive lived in vain. It is not
my habit to indulge in ersonalities ; but
I desire to say here to the Senator that in
ntimatiug !nuvthin: inconsistent, as he

Sauiniary of the President' Reasons for
i Vetoing the Judicial Expenses Rill.
WASiiivnTOK, Junp 23.4-The following
is a summary of the President s message.
returning
Ibmse wit
the judicial expences bill to the
iont his signature: I The Pres-
ident begii
is by reciting a passage of the
original le;
of the Rev
;islative bill repealing title 2b
etl Statutes, and bis return to
the Ilousel
without his approval. 1 he
object of t
ic present bill, 1 be says, is uot
to repeal the election laws, bnt to defeat
their enforcement. Under existing laws
the failure! of Congress to make the ap
propriations required for the exeoution of
the provisions of the election laws would
not preveiit their enforcement. The right
ami duty ro appoint me general ami spe
cial deputy marshals wbTeh they provide
for would still remain, and the executive
department of the government would also
Iks empowered to incur the requisite lia
bility for I their compensation; but the
second section of this bilUcoufuius a pro
hibition nyl, found in nny previous legis
lation. Its desigu is to render the elec- '
tion lawsiiioperative by omitiug to appro
priate money for their enforcement, and
by prohibiHug uuy officer of the goverti- j
ment from incurring liability uuder title 20
of the Revised Statutes authorising the np
pointment of deputy marsh lis for service
on the elecjtiou djiy. The appointment f
special deputy marshals is not he says, a
8jontaneon8 act of authority m the part
of the government, but is made by section
2,t21 ot" the Revised Statutes-j-a popular
right of ci tizens iu towns having twenty
thousand inhabitants or upwards. The
present bill neither revkes; tlii jMipnlar
right nor relieves the marshal of the duty
imposed by the law nor the President of
his duty tj see that this law is faithfully
executed. "1 j
He declines to discuss again the wisdom
and necessity of election lavfs,jor what he
regards as the dangerous and unconstitu
tional principle of this bill ; that the pow
er investe iu Congress to originate ap
propriations involves the right, to compel
the executive to approve, any) legislation
which Congress may see tit to attach to
such bills imder penalty of refusing the
means needed to carry on the essential
functions of the government. His views
ou these points were, be says, presented
in previous messages, and he regards them
conclusive as to his duty iu respect to the
bill. Thisi measure leaves the powers
and duties of supervisors of election un
touched, but deprives the national gov
ernment of the power to protect them iu
the dischatge of their duty at the polls.
States may employ lioLli civil aud milita
ry power at elections, but by this bill even
civil authority to protect Corf lepsion
al elections is denied to the United States.
There are two lawful Waysjto overturn
legislative enactments; one is to repeal,
the decision of a competent trebunal
against their validity. The ejflect of this
bill is to deprive the executive depart
ment of th government ot the means to
execute. lavrs which are not reealed. and
which have not been declared invalid, and
which it is therefore the duty of the Ex
ecutive ami of every other department of
the government to oln;y aud enforce.
He close by saying be is willing to con
cur in snititble amendments for the im
provement jof the election laws, but can
not conseut to their repeal or approve
legislation Which seeks to prevent their
enforcement. j
