Mr Dawes said the Senate conference had been compelled to giro it up in order to secure an agreement on the bill. Mr. Call protested on behalf of the peo ple of Florida, and of the Seminole Indians in that State, against the refusal of Con gress, year after year, to do them simple justice. . The conference report was agreed to. Mr. Anthony, from the committee on Naval Affairs, offered aa amendment ap propriating $200,000 to enable the Secre tary of the Navy to build an experimental cunboat. Mr. McPherson, discussing this amendment, attacked the Secretary of the Navy, who he described as one at home m the lobby. The President, he said, had headed the list of his advisers with charac ter and ability the purest and best but even before reacning ine enu ui mc no uu descended by one gigantic stride to the iv.htr n?ith n that that imDlied.

After discussion a vote was tasen, developing no quorum present. On motion of Mr. Ed.munds the Sergeant-at-Arms was instructed to request the im mediate attendance of the absent members. A little before 8 o'clock the Sergeant-at-Arms made a report in regard to absentees, the roll was again called, and thirty-two Senators answered. Mr. Edmunds offered an order naming the Senators absent with out leave, and directing the Sergeant-at-Arms to bring them in.

It sets apart one hour in each day for the consideration of any measure called up by the committee to which there shall not be five objections. The House at 11.40 o'clock went into committee of the Whole on the Sundry Civil Appropriation bill. The clause relative to Yellowstone Na tional Park having been reached, Mr. Mc Cook. of N. Y.. moved to strike out the proviso authorizing the Secretary of the Interior to lease portions of the Park under certain restrictions, and to insert in lieu thereof a proviso prohibiting the Secretary of the Interior from leasing any portion of the Yellowstone National Park to any per son, company or corporation, for any pur pose whatever; declaring of no force or ef fect any lease, agreement, exclusive privi lege or monopoly already granted or enter ed into, and authorizing the Secretary of War to make the necessary details of troops to prevent trespassers or intruders entering upon the Park with the object of destroy ing game therein or for any other purpose prohibited by law. The amendment was adopted. On motion of Smalls, of S. C, an amend ment was adopted, appropriating $5,000 for the purchase of a site for a coaling dock and naval storehouse at Port Royal, S. C. An amendment was adopted limiting the compensation of the Clerk of the Supreme Court of the United States to $5,000, and regulating the fees of that court An item of .$5,000 to the family of An drew Herron, late member of Congress from Louisiana, was added to the appro priation for families of deceased members, and the committee rose and reported the bill to the House It being rumored that the friends of the bonded spirits bill had organized their forces for an attempt to call up that meas ure at the night session, the House, on mo tion of Mr. Hiscock and without passing the Sundry Civil bill, at 5:20 P.

Bradstreet's Feb ruary cotton report is based on 885 replies from correspondents in the immediate cot ton growing regions of the South, from 879 counties, covering 94 per cent, of the cotton district. An analysis of the returns indi cate that on February 15th 10 per cent, of the whole crop remained unsold on planta tion. Detailed reports which are set forth assent by correspondents, after elimina ting palpable errors, show that a general improvement has taken place in the finan cial condition of planters as compared with Previous years. Except in. North Carolina, the December and Februarv rpnnrta .--. hibit a striking agreement as to the average weight per bale for the entire cotton belt, which is put by both reports at 483 pounds. The weather has been bad for preparations for the next crop. Picking was generally finished by January first. Replies of cor respondents show that there is relatively less cotton held by speculators at interior towns of the South than at the same time last year. ' .

That chectr'was for the rifle and it was charged against "JT B. B." ' That was ' the only transaction between them. Of course Mr. Belford did not knojy anything of that check, for it was not given to him, but.td the person for whom the rifle was purch'ased. The condition of the public mind was such that it was absolutely famished for a reasonable lip. and for that reason he hated to have th man's name mentioned. Itvras for. that reason he wanted to eo into this mem orandum to show that it was made entirely by witness; that he used a pencil because it was easier thus to imitate the handwri ting, and to show that no payments such as had been sworn to by witness had ever been made to Belford or Tyner or Tur ner. He wanted to show that they could not have been made by Dorsey. Mr. Merrick said that if they attempted to stop the proceedings to go into side ques tions of this kind, the trial would never end. Turning to the defence, he declared em phatically that if they wished, to vindicate, these gentlemen they should produce .the books. . - r ".7 Mr. Davidge argued in favor of going into the subject of the memorandam. The Court said that the paper had not been mentioned during the examination- in chief, and therefore could not be touched upon in the cross-examination.

Parnell , would speak1 Jn answervto the Charges inade against hini "i)ya:Mrs Forster - yesterday, r Many persons were in tne.ioD- bfes. being unable to una room in rue tiousff. Mr. Pamell tsaid that the utmost he de- jsired.to do''was to make his . position clear to tbeIrish-t) 'home and. abroad. Mr. Forster. he said.'bught to be .'ashamed for traducing him. He declined to reply to Mr. JForster's Questions, and charged that gentleman, with having asked him (Paruell) tOianfQrm? againsthis.. associates,; , lr sit. 'Forster had believed h"at the articles pub lished in the Truth W&rld were likely to in cite crime,: why had he not stopped the circulation of that Daoer ? He compared ' the responsibility of Mr. Forster. who had read the articles and be lieved what the result would be, to that of himself, who had never read. them, though they were now brought, against him. Mr. Forster had unfairly singled out the name of Sheridan as mentioned in the "Kilmainham treatt" negotiations. Why did he suppress the names of Davitt, Egun and Boyton, who were also , mentioned, as likely to endeavor to Drevent outrage in Ireland. Mr. Forster exclaimed. "They were not 'mentioned to me." Mr. Pamell continued: He had been challenged to defend himself,- but he had nothing id defend himself from. He oc cupied a better, position in- the eyes of the Irish than Mr. Forster did in England. Mr. Forster's unfairness was shocking. Mr. Pamell also analysed the evidence -of Carey, -in Dublin, which he said was not a-tatement of fact, but of belief or hearsay Ithad been -already disposed of as regards Mrs. Byrne. The evidence in ref erence to the source of the murder fund, he said, rested on the fact that some men while in prison had received checks from the sustentation fund of the Land League. Such aid had been given to thousands of 'prisoners. Mr. Forster's animus was due to the fact that he had attempted to obtain a Dromise from him. Pamell).. but had failed to do so. - and had lost his office. In concluding his remarkSiMr. Parnell de clared that the present officials in Ireland were manifestly unfit -to administer the Crimes act. Mr. -Forster ought to return to his congenial work. . Mr. Parnell said he was hopeful that Ireland would weather this, as she bad weathered other formidable oppressions. He spoke for thirty-five min utes. Justin McCarthy, member for Longford, has written to -Mr. Forster, informing him that he will personally attack him during the speech which he (McCarthy) intends to make in the House of. Commons. Sir Stafford Nortbcote has given notice that ne will move for the appointment of a committee to inquire into the matter of the release -of: Messrs. r'arnen. Dillon and O'Kelley from Kilmainham jail.
