Scales was elected County 1 'Attorney for Rockingham in his early manhood. Ele served in the Legis! uiirt1 during' the sessions of 1SV--V':' and l85a-'57.

He has been tried in war and in peace, and he has proved eq'uaPto all demands. As a citizen and a soldier he is with out reproach. It is not claimed that he always voted as we would have voted, but no one can donbt the hon esty and conscientiousness of Gen, Males. He will do to trust because he lias character that has been tho roughly tried and tested. He is the nominej! of tlie Democratic party pf North Carolina-for Governor,' and we. cannot doubt that i-be will be elected ,y a handsome majority in ovtmber. Let all devoted North Urolinians rally around the banner f the Democracy and give Radical- 'sm and Monsrelism its death blow. KK ETCH OF MAJOR STEDMASV -lajor Charles Manly Stedman was horn in the county of Chatham, North Carolina, in January, 1841. He is a 80,1 of Nathan A. Stedman, Sr., who several times representedChatham eounty in both Houses of the Legis lature, and was Comptroller of the Stte in 18.34-'35. Major Stedman received his earlv education at Donaldson Academy, at Fayette- vule, a school of high repute. In he entered the University , of h'a State where he was graduated in i8ol, having taken the first distinc tion in every branch of study and in ueportment. He' volunteered at the ginning of the war although 'still a student in the University.' He J""ied the old Fayetteville Indepen- eat Light Infantry as a private. He 78 soon in the Peninsula of Vir 8'nia under Colonel D. IL HilL We avail ourselves of a sketch of his ""htary services that appeared in the eigh Eegisler last March. It says: f As our young volunteer was in at the VOL. XV. beginning, being at Bethel, so he remained in to the close of the war receiving fr- quent wounds in hard fought battles whose scars he vet carriea. . tnkm-nf honorable service from Bethel Chapel the uuuse -aiong me glorious, but Woody and ineffectual route of - the Wilrferneaa Spottsylvania C. 'IL, and through the trenches ot Petersburg id all the exposure, penLc privation : and endurance of that world-wide renowned siege, ; this young volunteer bore his part: much of the latter time being brought into the ; closest and most confidential relations with Will Mc Rae, Brigadier-General, than whom the State did not produce; of all the McRaes, and there were well nigh a dozen in the list, or others, a mere l skilful or heroic officer, nor one whose service was more, dutifully or more unselfishly rendered. . "As the last gun fired at Appomattox,! where the survivors' of a lost cause only less immortal than their comrades who had laid down their lives in its defence, in that they had not passed . through the gates of fame to immortality, our Stedman, now advanced for merit tp be Major of the Forty-Fourth Regiment of North Carolina Volunteers, was present, and from begin ning to close his is the register, common enough, h but no less glorious, of a brave, self sacrificing soldier and patriot, ever pre sent where duty required him to be, and always doing what duty exacted." After the war he, began to teach BohooL at Pittsboro. He- renewed the study of law at the same time under Col. Robert Strange and Hon. John Manning, In 1 866 1 - he was licensed to practice and soon after removed to Wilmington, Where he became associated with : the late , William A. Wright, one of the lead ers of the bar in the Cape Fear sec tion. In i860 he married Miss Kate, daughter of the late Joshua G. Wright. He has been very success ful m his practice. . Since the death of his j partner, which occurred in 18t7, Maj. Stedman's practice has been very large and probably there is no lawyer in the State who. has a more lucrative one. Upon the death of the late Isaac B. Grainger, a man of ! remarkable ability as a bank President, Maj. Stedman was chosen by; the directors of the Bank of New Hanover to succeed him.' Maj, Sted man has been prominent in the old Third District in two campaigns for Congress, having received at the Convention held at Fayetteville a nearly two-thirds j vote. The writer in the Heaister said this of :him , and we think it is trne: "Major Stedman is a man of middle age, of remarkably fine presence and address. of strong and vigorous physique, and of such imposing appearance and bearing that he would attract attention in any assembly, lie is a man of positive opinions, who does not mince his words in the expression of them. He is a Democrat by nature and by conviction, and an earnest ana aeciaea one, but strictly conservative and liberal to his opponents, bein? a thorough advocate of free thought and free speech.! No man has more devoted friends, ana deservedly so.; for a generous nature, a genial social disposition, and a free- hearted: liberality are sure to beget such. He is a North Carolinian in every fibre of his being. He knows North Carolina, is in every way identified with her people, and will never be tray any trust confided .to his keep- ?. -He has shown in a hundred - " - i ways the benevolence of his nature and his strong sympathy with those distress. His bitterest enemy would concede to him high integrity and a courageous heart. He is the nominee of the Democratic party for Lieutenant Governor, and he wil give his best abilities and energies' to the promotion of the party and j,he welfare of the State. 1 j THE REMAINDER OF THE .TICKET Gen. W. P. Roberts, of Gates county, was honored by the Conven tion with a.renomination to the office of Auditor. We do not know him personally. He was a gallant Con federate in time of war, and danger and he has made an efficient officer as far as we have been able to learn. He was the choice of a majority of the Convention and that is sufficiept. He has an nnblemished name. j IThe nomination of Donald w. Bain, of Raleigh, for peculiarly appropriate Treasurer; is and striking. He is uncommonly well qualified f;or the position. A long familiarity with the duties of the office fit him for their discharge in a most satisfactory manner. . He was not a candidate for the office. He had declared that he would not be a candidate; a'gaipst his chief, Dr. "Worth. He oijjy wnt so far as to say that if elected; he would not decline the : nomination. The writer has known Mr. Bain for many years. He knew his father be fore ? him - who, like the son, had a long service in the depart ments in the Capitol. Mr. Bain is a strict member of . the Methodist Episcopal Church and is one of the official mem bers of Person j Street Church.' He is we suppose, about 45 jrears; or age. 1 'The nomination of Theodore iF. i i : . ? f Davidson, of Buncombe, will i no doubt be satisfactory to the party at large. He is, we think, of the Revo lutionary Davidsons, one of j whom, Gen. Davidson; gave his life to the cause of Independence. Mr.j David son is a )man "of high , character, pd has the reputation of being a fine lawyer. He is a young man and ivill add decided strength to the ticket. iSince preparing the above yre learn that the Convention -nominated Maj. S. -M. Finger, of Catawba county, for Sunerintendent of Public 1 In- " - i. J" . i- ! : , . strnction. Mai. Finorer has served in' the Legislature but onr know ledere of him is so limited we cannot" peak of . his record or qualifications ' for the very important office, , i In Albany, N. Y,, there is a Ger man Baron who is a bar-tender. He is a fine Greek and Latin scholar,and speaks English, French and Spanish as well as his own tongue. A dis patch to the Times says: . ; : - "He is the eldest son of Baron Steuben- dorf, of Saxony, who is said to be one of the most powerful leaders of the opposition, to Bismarck in that State, and was sent to jtieiaeiDerg university: in. 1877 when he was 18 years old, to complete his educa tion. While there, although a very dili gent Biuaent at nis books, he was also a very studious scholar at the most necessary art in Heidelberg, that of fencing. He was aiso Bomewnat 01 a roysterer. and frequent complaints were made by the Heidelburg authorities ot his dangerous pranks. One night, when young Melz and -his fellow- students J were more - hilarious - than usual, , they .serenaded the daughter of i a very wealthy : burgher ' named Schoppfen, to whom Melz had been pay ing attention, and while doing so a patrol commanded by a Lieut. Wertzen ordered them to disperse. ' Melz pronosed coollv to the Lieutenant that the two kettle the mat ter between tnem witn swords on the spot. Tbe challenge was accepted, and in two passes Melz passed his weapon through the Lieutenant s breast. Melz s friends im mediately hurried him away, and after sev eral weeks of hiding hB wa enabled to cross the Yosges Mountains, make his way by rail to Marseilles, whence he sailed for America. He arrived in New York; at tempted school teaching, fou id it paid him little more than his board, came to Albany, and for nearly six months was a oar tender lor ilenry Dorr." His father is dead, leaving $60,000, 100 acres-o ' land and the ancestral mansions. He will return to his fatlierland. The chairman of the Republican Convention at Chicago was General Henderson, of Missouri. He is not hopeful for Blaine and is abused for talking in Washington too freely about the revolt. A dispatch to the New York Times from Washington, dated ,25th, says: l If it is,- it may be interesting to know that Mr. Henderson says that Cleveland will get the Democratic nomination at Chi cago, and that he will be a 'neat candidate. In conversation with a personal friend. who met him at the Arlington Hotel during his stay here, Mr. Henderson spoke ot the contrast between the enthusiasm for Blaine in the West and in Maine and the coolness and apparent indifference about the Repub lican ticket in Massachusetts, New , York, and Washington. : tie even went so iar as to declare that it appeared to him that the Republicans bad a heavy task on their bands to elect Blaine."

This committee, if named, has never been made public, and the Chairman, Mr. B. Q. Worth, has been called to New York on a matter of a pressing nature, lithe com mittee has not been appointed or notified, would it not be well to call a meeting at the Exchange the first of the coming week and select proper persons to represent our city at Jacksonville ?

A BUI for the Establishment of a Go vernment Farm The Legislative, Executive and Judicial Appropria tion BUI Passed by the Senate Bills Reported from House .Committees- Railroad Land Grant ; Forfeiture Bills Taken TJp. ' -t-'h . IBy Telegraph to the Horning Star. -- , SENATK-p --' Washtnoton. June 26. Mr. Jonas in troduced a bill appropriating $15,000 for the establishment of a Government farm, chiefly for the raising and cultivation of winter grasses, at or near the 81st parallel of latitude, in Louisiana. ' Referred. - Mr. Allison s resolution, offered yester day, was agreed to, making it in order, du ring the remainder of the session,' for any senator to move a five-minute limitation or debate on amendments to the Appropria tion bills.- - ' On motion of Mr. Morrill, the Senate took up and passed the House bill extending to water transportation routes the provisions or the statutes hitherto applied to land routes only, regarding the immediate trans portation of dutiable goods. c The Legislative, jsxecutive.and Judicial Appropriation bill was then proceeded with the pending question being an amendment proposed to strike out the clause permuting distillers mashing ten busbels or less of grain per day to be run without storekeep ers,, and' inserting instead a provision amending the Revised Statutes so as to for bid a collector hereafter approving Ixmds of grain distilleries the survey of whose distilleries shall be for a les3 capacity than ten bushels of gram per day, and so as to forbid under penalties the distillation of a less daily quantity than that. v Mr. - Brown opposed the committee s proposition, maintaining that it was great injustice to small distillers, and a further advantage to wealthy distillers already strongly protected. Mmall farmers, ne said, who had to cart their Droauce ntiy mnes to market found that half the amount realized was consumed in expenses, while by first making' the produce into whiskey, they could realize a profit that would compen sate them for their labor and time The point of order was raised that the part recommended for insertion was new legislation and therefore obnoxious to the rule forbidding such legislation in appro priation bills. The Chair sustained the point of order, and the new clause recom mended was not adopted. The committee recommendation to strike out the House clause was, however, agreed to. Mr. Vest offered the following substitute for an amendment moved by Mr. Allison upon the same subject viz: "Reports in the Congressional Record shall be an accu rate transcript of proceedings and debates of the two Houses of Congress, and no speech shall be published therein which was not spoken in the Senate or in the House of Representatives.and such speeches shall be printed as they were actually delivered, except verbal corrections made by the au thor of the speech and by no other person ; and that when speeches were reserved by their authors for correction they shall be re turned to the ieporter of the house in which they were delivered within one week, and if not so delivered they shall be printed in the Congressional Record from the notes of the reporter." Agreed to. An amendment having been made the bill was read a third time and passed. Mr. McMillan, from the committee on Commerce, reported the River and Harbor bill, with the request that it be printed and recommitted to the committee. Agreed to. The Senate then took up the bill to for feit the renewed land grant of the Atlantic & Pacific Railroad Co., and with this as unfinished business for to morrow, the Sen ate, at 5.45 p.m., went into executive session, and when the doors were reopened ad journed. - ..

House- calendar. Mr. Stockslager, of Ind., from the com mittee, on Pensions, reported a bill grant ing pensions to the surviving officers and men of the Tippecanoe campaign, ite- ferred to committee of the Whole. Mr. Artis. of Ala., from the committee on Public Lands, reported adversely a bill to declare forfeited certain lands granted to Alabama to aid in theSconstruction of railroads. Laid on the table. Mr. Garrison, of Va., asked unanimous consent to take up for consideration the bill for the completion of the monument to Mary, mother or Washington, at ureaer- icksburg, Va., but Mr. Weller, of Iowa, obiected.

On motion of Mr. Lamar, the Senate took up, read a third time, and passed without amendment thfl iomt resolution nrovidine lor a settle ment of accounts with the Mobile & Ohio Railroad Company. It authorizes the At torney General and the Secretary of War' to adjust and finally settle the accounts of the United States with the road named for property received by that road from the I J nited States in I80O-O. Mr. Butler gave notice that on Monday he would ask for a vote on his resolution of inquiry into the condition of the New York banks, Mr. Dawes presented the conference re port on the Invalid Pension bill. The re port was agreed to. un motion 01 Mr. ifiauieoerger.ine nousu bill authorizing the extension of the Chesa peake & Ohio Railroad to a point on the military lands at Fortress Monroe, was reaa a third time and passed. Mr. hiale. from the committee on Appro priations, reported the General Deficiency Appropriation bill, with amendments, and gave notice that he would call it up to-mor row. The unfinished business was then laid be fore the Senate, being the bill providing for the forfeiture of unearned lands granted to the Atlantic & Pacific Railroad Oompa- nv. The bill declares forfeited all lands, excepting the right of way and lands for stations, heretofore granted the Atlantic & Pacific R. R. Ca.which areadiacent to and coterminous with the Union Pacific por tions of the main line of the road; provides for the resumption by the United State of the title to such iands, their restoration to the public domain, and their subjection to disposal -under the general laws of the United States as though the grant had never been made. The Senate committee on Public Lands had added to the bill a proviso which in effect fixes the price of lands to settlers at 2 50 per acre. Mr. Morgan offered an amendment to take the place ' of the provision restoring lands to the public domain, ana tne re sumption of titles try the United States. The amendment authorizes and directs the Circuit Court of the United States for the Western District of Missouri to hear and determine all Questions arising out of If 1 1 FRIDAY, JULY 4, 1884. claims to lands declared forfeited ; directs the TJnited States Attorney for that District 10 proceed in that Court in the name of the United States as plaintiff, against any per son or corporation claiming interest in the lands referred to, so as to bring the subject before the Court; gives either party to the prosecution the right of appeal to the Su preme ' Court of. the United States, and directs that Court to advance the case on. its calendar. ' .',.. Mf.. Morgan spoke at some length in ad vocacy of his amendment and while still holding the floor gave way for a motion to go into executive session. Before the motion was entertained, how ever, Mr. Hawley said he had expected to say a few words respecting the great hold ings of land that. we had permitted to row up in the west in the hands both of indi viduals and corporations, but he. would forego this evening. ' There was one thing thathe desired to say now. He found in the Congressional Record of to-day, and he. invited the attention of Senators to it. a statement containing a catalogue of citizens .1. TT-. J 1 1 J! vi iuo uuiieu dums iiouune enormous estates in the territories and va-ious States, Among them he found the name of Senator John A. Logan as holding 80,000 acres. I can hardly mistake, continued Mr. Hawley, when I say that the object of a statement of that kind appears to be to prejudice a gentleman whose circumstances are such that he can hardly speak for himself, though 1 abundantly qualified as everybody knows to .jOQ-kso. , i peg leave, tnereiore, to say - . :. . a.. .a. .1 vuai ue geoneman reierreu 10 1a noc. tne owner of any such quantity or Jandin the: territories or anywhere -else: is only the; and which he purchased irom the other heirs, and to which he has added a little,! in his own State of Illinois. He has not the good or ill fortune to be the owner of the 80,000 acres referred to. . j Alluding to the same matter, Mr. Logan said the statement is utterly false; but I don't think it is material.: I don't propose to give a schedule of my property to any body, but the property 1' do own is in the State of Illinois. . I do own some two or three tracts of land, but all put together would not make a hundredth part of what they charge. ; I The Senate discharged the committee on Privileges and elections from further con sideration of the House bill on the Electoral count, and ordered a committee of Con ference on it At 5.45 p. m. the Senate went into execu tive session, and on the doors being re opened adjourned. HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES, Mr. Wilborne, of Tex.,. -submitted the conference report on the bill granting a right of way through the Indian Territory to the Gulf, Colorado & Santa Fe Railroad Company, and it was agreed to. Mr. Hancock, of Tex., presented the conference report on the Pension Appro priation bill, and It was agreed, to. j Mr. Turner. 01 ua., caned up tne elec tion case of Thos. G. Skinner, from the second district of North Carolina. The question at issue is whether Skinner was elected from the proper district.and there is no contest pending. : Mr. McMillan, of Tenn., raised the ques tion of consideration in favor of the private calendar, and the House declined to con sider the election case. I Mr Forney, of Alal. submitted the con ference report on the Army Appropriation bill. The report announces an agreement upon ali the items except upon the Senate amendment striking out that portion of the bill which regulates the compensation to be paid to subsidized railways for army trans portation. The other sections of the bill, as agreed upon, appropriates $24,454,450; being $210,000 more than was carried by the bill as it originally passed the House. The report was agreed to. Disagreement to the amendment indicated was insisted upon, and Messrs. Forney, Townshend and Jiener were appointed as conferees, Mr. fienly. 01 (Jala., made an unsuccess ful attempt to secure consideration for the Northern Pacific, Forfeiture bill, and the House at 12.30 p. m. went into committee of the Whole (Mr. Cox, of N. Y., in the chair) on the private calendar. I At one o clock the committee rose for the purpose of permitting the House to dis pose of the "Backbone1' R. R. Forfeiture bill. The speaker announced the question to be on the motion to table a motion to re consider the vote by which the House yes terday defeated the "iiackbone f or tenure bill. The motion to table was agreed to ayes 124. nays 114; so the bill was lost ! The House then proceeded to the consid eration of private business, and a number of relief bills were passed. A bill for the relief of Willis N. Arnold, of Tenn., was recommitted to the committee on War Claims, after an unsuccessful attempt had been made by Mr. Taylor, of Tenn.j to have adopted as a substitute a bill for the relief of Hiram Johnson. Both of these measures have been before Congress for many years, and grew out of a Confede rate raid upon the town of Henderson, Tenn. Mr. Valentine, of Neb., rising to a ques tion of privilege, said that some days ago, while the House had under consideration the bill for the establishment of a branch soldiers' home in one of the Western States, the gentlemen from N. J. (McAdoo) had obtained leave to print some remarks upon an amendment onerea oy mm. neivai entine) and others present had granted that leave. The gentleman's speech appeared in the Record of to day, and it was found that he had left the subject of soldiers' homes and discussed the subject of land-grabbers. or what is known as the land monopoly of this country; had taken occasion to print as part of his remarks a very long dispatch sent from this city to the New York Star on January 6th. It contained the names of some of our native land monopolists, saying that a full list -would mi every page of; the paper, in the 11st 01 names as printed in the Record to-day appeared the name of Senator John A. Logan; as owning 8,000 acres of land. Senator Logan had called his (Valentine's) attention to this to day. and had desired him to say to the House that so far as it related to him the statement was .absolutely false. The only land he owned was a little homestead in Illinois The gentleman from New Jersey had taken nnrnsion while he was lauding the soldiers of the land to stab one of the brightest and gallant of those soldiers. LLiOUd applause on the Republican side. I The action 01 the gentleman from New Jersey was an abuse of the privileges granted by the House, i" -:-.'-L Mr. Bland, of Mo., obiected that the question raised by the gentleman from; Ne braska was not one 01 privilege. i The Speaker said that if the gentleman from Nebraska had any proposition to sub mit he would then decide whether it was a matter of privilege. The gentleman had not disclosed anything which would have been out of order if spoken on the noor. Mr. Valentine thought that it the lan guage complained 01 had been spoken in debate it would have been out of order. The Speaker suggested that the languago did not refer to Gen. liOgan m his senato rial capacity. Mr. Valentine It says, "senator jonn A. Logan." Mr. Cox. of N; Y.. did not think any thing in the shaoe of a Question of privilege was presented, lie pledged nimseu mat 11 the gentleman from New Jersey found that he1 had made an error in copying a state ment in regard to Senator Logan, he would correct it ! , Mr. Randall hoped that the gentleman from Nebraska would be permitted to con tinue.'

The gentle man had nut in the Record nhtA ought not to have been put there, and had violated at least the rules of propriety and fait dealr ing. If the statement had been mede in his (Cannon's) presence, he would have contradicted it; but as Senator Logan owned no land except his homestead,; it has never been controverted in tne puDiic prints.

Mr. Uox said that he had trusted that Congress would have adiourned without any partisan Presidential discussion having arisen. . The Democratic side of the House had not brought forward Blaine and Lo gan, and had received encomiums from the other side for its action.

Conference Committees on Army Ap propriations and the Presidential Connt Bill The Deficiency Appro priation Bill Passed and the Klver and Harbor Bill Taken up by the Senate House Reports on Appro priation Bills. SENATE. i Washington, June 28. Mr. Plumb sub mitted the report of the Conference com mittee on the Army Appropriation bill- The Senate agreed to the report, and or dered a committee of conference on the clause relating to the compensation tp be paid to the Pacific Railroad, the point on which the senate insisted upon its amend ment The Chair appointed Messrs. Lo-. gan, rlumo and Kansom as such com mittee. 1 Mr. Blair, from the committee on Pen slons, reported favorably the House bill to grant a pension to the widow of Major Oeneral Jones is. Steedman. fiacedonthe calendar. j The chair appointed Messrs. Hoar, Sher man, and 1'ugh as a committee of confer ence on the part of the Senate on the Presi dential Uount bill. ' l Mr. McMillan gave notice that when the General Deficiency Appropriation bill shall have been completed he will call up the River and Harbor bill. i The General Deficiency Appropriation bill was then taken up and its considera tion was proceeded with. The committee amendment was adopted striking out the proviso adopted in the House that no part of 'the money for district attorneys and their assistants should be used to pay spe cial counsel lees. On motion of Mr- Hale,, who said he acted in the matter for Mr. Plumb, who was for the moment absent, an item was added authorizing the Attorney General to pay Chas. H. Kead for services as counsel for the late Chas. J. Gillian such sum as he may deem. lust, not to exceed $3.000. ! The bill having been completed was read a third time and passed. The amendments above noted were the only substantial changes made in the bill in addition to those reported by the Senate committee on Appropriations. The regular order, the Atlantic and a cific Land Grant Forfeiture bill, was laid aside and the River and Harbor bill was taken up and proceeded with. On reaching the senate committee s pro posed amendment appropriating $25,000 for the improvement of the Coosa river. Oregon, Mr. Slater, aided by Mr. Dolph, succeeded in getting the Senate to add $5,000 to the amount allowed by the com mittee. On reaching the item for Yaquina Bay, Mr. Slater moved to make th,e appropria tion $65,000 instead 01 $50,000. This was too much, for Mr. .fe rye. who; said he liked to see fair play in regard to river and harbor expenditures, but Oregon; had already got a great deal more than it was entitled to if measured by the staadard adopted for other States. The Senate com mittee on -Kivers and Harbors had : been compelled to give that State four times as much as its proper snare, just because there was on that committee as persistent ana importunate a beggar for his State (allud ing to Dolph) as he (Frye) had ever known in his life. Continuing, Mr. Frye asked where this bill would end if the Senate were to increase the amounts reported by the committee. The committee, he said, in the first place undertook to cut down the House appropriation, and had succeeded in reducing it $800,000. The bill was printed with that reduction and within six hours of the moment when it became known that the bill was cut down, almost every item was bucking the bill. . If we should appro priate the amounts recommended by en gmeers and others as indispensable, we should have a' River and Harbor appropria tion of $24,000,000. Mr. Slater said that the trouble was that the Congress of the United States had un dertaken to put this great nation of 50,000-, 000 people in a straight jacket and they could not accomplish the task. ; We were developing with a rapidity with which Congress did not keep pace. ' The River and Harbor bill ought ,-- to be $25,000,000 a year. The bill was far below the demands 01 the commerce 01 the country. Mr. McMillan thought there was no dan ger that Oregon would suffer in the Senate, He concurred in Senator Slater's view that the River and Harbor bill should be in creased, because of the rapid development of the country. We could not make appro priations, however, in anticipation of the necessities of localities and harbors. He hoped the Senate would adhere to the com mittee's recommendation ; which it did, and the motion for an increase was not agreed to. Mr. Pugh hoped the Senate -would not agree to the recommendation ofthe Senate committee reducing irom sw,ww 10 saou. 000 the appropriation for continuing the im provement of the Tennessee river, inciua ing Mussel Shoals. After remarks by Sen ators Pugh and Harris for a larger amount and Senators Conger and McMillan for a smaller, the reduction was aisagreea to and the original amount replaced. The Chair announced as a committee bf conference on the part of the Senate on the Legislative, ; Executive and Judicial Ap propriation bill, Messrs. Allison, Dawes and Cockrell. ' e Mr. McMillan gave notice of his inten tion to move on Monday to limit debate on the River and Harbor amendments to five minutes for each member. .

J.. in , which allusion was made to Senator Logan, was not actually delivered oy him. ; Mr. Uox., of N.'i.. after deprecating the practice of printing long essays in the Re cord, said that the present dispute arose from the publication in the Record of an article from the New York Star, stating that Senator Logan owned 80,000 acres of land. It had not been charged that he came by them, wrongfully. . He (Mr. Cox) did not know that Mr. Logan was a dis honest man. What was the object of this discussion to-day, except to prevent ad journment? In order to nut an end to the discussion, he moved to lay the whole matter on the. table. (Cries of "good" and vote.") (The motion' was agreed to without divi sion. . . ' . : Mr. Horr, of Mich., from the committee on Appropriations, reported the Fortifica tions Appropriation bill; but it was referred to the committee of the Whole. Ur.

S., Characterizing it as a claim against the bill, and declaring that it would permit another raid upon the Treasury and not only permit a raid bnt create an aristocracy of labor. , un motion or Mr. Hewitt, of Ala., the first section was amended so as to read as follows: "That whoeyer, as laborer, work man or mechanic, is hereafter employed by or on behalf of the Government of the United States, shall be paid for each eight hours he has been employed, as for a f ull day's work." On motion of Mr. McMillan, of Tenn.. the second section was amended to corres pond with the first section, so to apply merely to the future.
