CONSIDERATION OF THE BILL FOE THE
ESTABLISHMENT AND SUPPORT OF
ED UCATIONAX INSTITUTIONS THE
FORTIFICATIONS BILL DEBATED AND
PASSED IN THE HOUSE.
-By Telegraph to the Morning Star
SENATE.
Washington, December 15. Tbe Senate
resumed the consideration of the bill to
apply a part of the proceeds of the sale of
public lands to public education and for
the establishment and support of educa
tional institutions. Senators Burnside,
Mori ill and Brown spoke in Bupport of the
bill, alter which it was informally laid
aside to be called up to-morrow, when it is
hoped a rote will be reached upon it.
The Senate then took up the bill appro
priating $4,750 to pay Samuel A. Lowe for
services and expenses of a clerk of the
Territorial Legislature of Kansas in 1855.
After a long debate the Senate, without
action on the bill, went into executive ses
sion, and when the door3 were reopened
adjourned.
HOUSE OF REPRESKN TATIYES .
Mr. Baker explained the provisions of the
Fortiflcations bill, which he said was, ex
cept in one point, identical with that of
last year. He called attention to the de
plorable condition of the country's seacoast
defences, and said that in the event of war
with a foreign power it would be impossible
ble to put any our seacoast cities in anything
like an adequate condition for defence in
less than two years.
Mr. Randall, of Fensylvania, discredited
tbe idea that we should have war within the
lifetime of the gentleman from Indiana.
Mr: McCook said that during the first
hundred years of of its existence as a na
tion this county naa sixteen years ui war.
Mr, Reed, of Maine, said tbe condition
of the' seacoast defences of the United
States, inview of the prosperous condition
of the country, was disgraceful in the ex
treme. No Dart of the seaboard conld be
successfully defended even against a
third-rate European power. The navy was
not the best thing to meet daDger with, and
hesides that an adeauata navy would coat
more than the fortifications.
Mr. Eilis , of Louisiana, said that the
ships of any foreign power could enter the
harbor of New lork in perfect safety and
levy contribution a thousand limes greater
man the sum asked by toe umei or via
nance for the manufacture of heavy can
noo. When war should break out there
would be no time to improvise defences
War might break out any time. Cuban
cruisers were firing on American ships
every two or three months. He hoped the
incoming' administration would listen to no
apologies but adopt a policy which would
teach all nations, and especially Spain
that the American flag must be everywhere
respected.
Mr. Reean, of Texas, favored the
strengthening of fortifications.aod dwelt on
tbe necessity of providing suitable defences
for Galveston harbor.
JSMr. King also alluded to the importance
of strengthening the defences of Southern
porta, which might now be entered and
destroyed by Spanish men-of-war. Gen
eral debate then closed, and the bill was
read for amendments.
Mr. Johnston, of Virginia, under direo
lion of the Military Committee, offered an
Hoiendment making the first section appro
priate $500,000 instead of $100,000 for
strengthening sea coast defences.
Mr. Randall, of Pennsylvania, spoke at
length in opposition to the amendment. He
was opposed to any increase of appropria
tions under the fancied apprehension of
war. There was no danger of war and the
country might better rely on diplomacy.
Mr. Johnston, of Virginia, supported the
amendment. He thought that the country
snould prepare for war in time of peace
The spectacle now presented by the harbor
detences of tne country was disgraceful.
Mr. tJlount, of Ueorgia, argued against
ail amendments and agreed with Mr. Ran
dall that there was no danger of war.
Foreign powers had all they could attend
lo at home.
Finally discussion closed and tbe amend
ment was rejected by "a vote of 90 to 50.
Other amendments were offered, but all
were either rejected or ruled out. The
committee then rose and reported the bill to
tbe House, when it was passed.
Mr. Gibson, of Louisiana, from the corns
miltee on Mississippi Levees, reported a bill
appropriating $1,800,000 for improvement
of the Mississippi river, which was ordered
printed and recommitted.
The House then adjourned.

The marriage of the Princess De Garooka

The terms of tbe Frankfort note relative

recommend Greece to enter upon a path
of negotiations instead of resistance to
armaments.
Mr. Wm. B. Jones, an English and large
land owner, residing at Lisselone,' county
Cork, writes to the 'limes that be has ex
pended 25,000 on the improvement of bis
property, and has hitherto enjoyed good
relations with bis tenants, but because be
refuses to accept Griffith's valuation his
tenants have been deterred by threats from
paying their rents. He is threatened that
his grave will be dug opposite his door.
His laborers are compelled to leave, and
noae dare ljuy bis produce, because when
it is sent to market it is surrounded by a
howling mob. When Mr. Jones, on Tues
day tried to ship eighty head of cattle and
sheep to Bristol for sale, a number of large
shippers informed the Steamship Company
that they would cease their dealings with
it if the cattle . were shipped, and
the company consequently refused to take
them, as also did a Clyde shipping com
pany. Finally the drovers refused to tend
the cattle, which, after straying through
the streets, were finally driven by the police
to the Great Southern Railway, and that
company forwarded them to Dublin by
train, in spite of the efforts of the "Boy
cotters" to prevent the company from sup
plying a train. Mr. Jones is unpopular
because of his writings in the periodical
press in opposition to public works. The
police promised to protect the laborers if
they would remain with Mr. Jones, but
they refused. The Land League will sup
port the laborers who left the estate. The
family of Mr. Jones are attending the re
maining cattle, protected by armed police,
and the house is guarded at night.
