Carolina Watchman. THURSDAY, JAN. 7, 1886. Congressional. Since the reassembling of Congress on Monday there have been discussions on the Silver aaestiou, the Mormon business, and female suffrage in Utah; the Bill re ported at last session on schools has been again reported. Mr. O'Neil, of Pennsylvania, offered a resolution asrainst the reduction of the tariff on goods of foreign manufacture. Many other resolutions vrere also offered, but no art ion was taken on any of them. There were 882 House on the 6th. bills reported in the Installation. Gov. Fit zh ugh Lee was duly inducted Into office on the first day of January; in the presence of the General Assembly of the State of Virginia, the two Houses gathering in the hall of the House of Del egates. The galleries were filled to pack ing by interested spectators drawn to the Wace from country and city to witness ceremony, and catch a glimpse of the man who had whipped out Mahone and To-established the ancient and true De- ifiocracy. It was a joyous day to many thousands of the best people of the State. John McFadden, of Mecklenburg coun ty, says the Observer, had a falling out witWfwo negro hands employed on his furm, Dec. 30, and the trouble ended by his shooting one of them, named Jim Smith, causing his death in a few min utes afterwards. The same paper reports the shooting of J. G. Hood, at Davidson College, by his brother-in-law, J. W. Summers, Dec. 31. Hood was not thought to be dangerously wounded, though the bullet is yet under his shoulder blade. The St. Louis Di-patch says arrange ments have been perfected in that city for the treatment of hydrophobia after Pasteur's method. The West takes the lead in this as she is also doing in other matters. The distinguished discoverer of the great remedy is represented as one who careslittle for money, and makes no attempt to keep his discovery secret. There is a revival of the iron business of the country. Furnaces which have been idle for some time, arc now resum ing business ; and the impression prevails that this must be regarded as a favorable indication of a general business revival, extending through all branches of trade, to the arming interests of the country as well. It has been mentioned as a draw back that coal has advanced, and may check the iron revival. The wjr against the silver dollar is bringing out its friends to such an extent that Congressmen will be apt to go alow in doing anything to depreciate its value. There Were about 10,600 business fail ures in the United States in 1885 a fall ing off of four per cent, in number and 50 per cent, in liabilities, as compared with 1884. ' Harper's Ferry, the old Government gun factory, has passed into the hands of a syndicate, who propose to erect there large manufacturing establishments. The castor oil bean (pal ma christa plant) is now being cultivated in parte of South Carolina in place of cotton. It pays rather better than cotton.

The good people of Charleston, S. C, seem to be greatly disappointed in respect to two of their railroads, one of which was largely built by the city as a com peting line with the other.

The old people were. first attacked. The doctor thinks the children will die. The others may recover, although the chances are against them. There is tin at alarm in the neighborhood, as several- other families partook of the same sausages, but they may have cooked them thoroughly. The hog from whose flesh the sausage was made had been kept in a clean, dry peu and fat tened on corn. New Yokk, January 2. The weekly statement ot the .New York associated banks is as follows.

JSew Orleans, January 1. An Indian .territory special says that the Cherokee Indians are greatly excited over the mea sures introduced into Congress looking to the opening of the Indian country to white settlement, and the allotment of lands in severalty anions the Indians. Public sen timent is opposed to Congressional inter - vcuuou generally, aitnoium tiierc are many Cherokees who believe it best to ac cept the situation rather than strurle against the inevitable. Before adjourn ment the Cherokee council adopted resolu tions expressive ot public opinion op the subject. 1 hese resolutions declare that the Cherokees hold possession of their lands by fee simple title, and cannot be de prived of the same except by the volunta ry consent of the law making authority. i ney iurther declare that all that portion ot the Cherokee lands lyinj; west of the 68th meridian, aud which have not been conveyed by patents from the Cherokees, are still the property of the nation. The United States lias not now and never has had any right to appraise, take or pur chase any unoccupied portions of these lands, save with the consent of the Cher okee people. The final resolution says the Uherokee nation docs not authorize the sale ot any of its lands for the purpose of white settlement or for any other purpose The pending Congressional measures also attect the Creeks and the Seminoles. It is claimed, however, that the latter tribes are willing to sell a. portion of their lands for white settlement, and allow the coun try to be opened up, but the hostility of the Cherokees is likely to unite all three tribes in active opposition.
