Among the bills introduced for reference was one by Mr. Pierce, to create an agri eullurul commission to investiKite the orenent drorrstwd condition ol the agri cultural intcreRts of the country. Mr. Hoar introduced a bill to prescribe in part the miinncrol'tlieelectionof mrm bers of congress, and it wus reterred to the committee on privileges nnd election It provides that in all me Mutes 01 tue Union representatives to congress shall be elected in und for the districts now prescribed by luw, until the apportion ment of reDrescntutivcs shall be made by congress, according to the census to be inacn in inun, any iuw ui iuvh .-,..00 he eiittcr to lie passed to the contrary notwithstanding. Mr. Honr stated that the fcar had licen expressed in various quarters that there would be nn attempt to muRenew representiiiivc tnsirici io take effect at the next election) nnd to gerrymander some Stilus in the interest ol one or the other party before the next census.

The bill Hunroiiriating $iuu,uuu lor 11 public building ut Burlington, iu., was passed. The senate at 1 o'clock resumed con sideration of the bill to provide a tempo rary government lorthe territory 01 Oklo h.iniit, the pending question being an amendment, offered yesterday by Mr. Plumb, to comprise No Man s Land within the limits of the proposed terri tory. The bill was discussed until 2 o clock and then went over till to-morrow with out action on the amendment us to No Man's Lund. The senate then took uo the educa tional bill nnd Mr. Ill.iir continued his opening speech in supMirt of that mens- urc. lie rea. irotn an nrucic wiiicivcw Vork Mail and Express, to lustily his as sertion as to the failure of the Northern States to provide suliicirnt school facili ties, nnd rclcrrcd snccringly to the N.

L'pon tlie journal of yester day's uroceediiitfs, containing the yea and nuy vote, upon which the sienker counted a quorum, tnc ocmoeruis wouiu not by their silence acquiesce, nnd a roll cull was rendered necessary. It wns a- proved by a vote ol: yeus, 1.10; nuys, 1 (Mr. Buckalew), the speaker counting a nuorum. Mr. Cannon, of Illinois, called up for consideration the proposed code ol rules und he ollcred u resolution provitnng thut the gcnerul debute shall close at one o'clock to-morrow, and that after the de bate, under the hve minute rule, the pre vious iiuestion shall be considered its or dered at 4 o'clock to-morrow. Mr. Summer immediately claimed the floor, but Mr. Cannon declined to yield it. He proposed either to lose the pre vious uuestion or at least net some indi cation at whut time this year the gcntli--men on the other side were willing to close the debate. He demanded the yeas und nays for tbe previous question, but not a sufficient number of members arose to enforce this demand, and amid ap plause trom the democratic tide the urn leer so announced. Mr. Cannon then yielded the floor, rec ognising, as he said, thnt his colleague. Mr. Springer, wns in chnrge of the reso lution. 1 Luul' liter). The democrats were jubilant over their victory, and its Mr. Springer rose to make a motion he wns greeted by many of his colleagues as being in churge ol tbe pro posed new roue. Mr. Sorinncr then offered a resolution providing that the general debute shall proceed until adjournment to-morrow, after which the code shall be considered under the five-minute rule until 3 o'clock Friday, when the previous question shall be considered as ordered. This resolution wns adopted without oMectlon, and Mr. Cannon good natnr etllv crossed over to the democratic side and congratulated bis colleague Uion his success. Mr. Grosvenor defended the rule per mitting the sprMkrr to count a quorum nnd criticising the action ol the minority in breaking a quorum by refusing to vote. Every member of the house had been guilty of this action : he confessed that he himself hnd beed guilty of Joining in this method of preventing legislation on many occasions, and he was reudy to stand here and any, as bis colleague Mr. McKinley had said, that he had never done it und prevented the action of the majority that he hnd not lilt that he wus guilty 01 anunjustiniioir ami nimosi unpnrdonuliie urcucnoi uuty to 111s con stituents. In his opinion the rights o! the minority were ended when that minority had expressed its tipHisition to n measure, had recorded its votes against and hnil urotested to tbe country. He knew of nu other God-irivcn or cousin 11 tion-uiven right of the minority.

The democrats were here to-day to obstruct legislation. Th' whole pur pose of the democratic party on this floor wus to obstruct nnd imjiede the representatives of the people from going forward with the business of the people. The republican party wns on tin; side ol progress. The democratic party stood as an obstructionist nnd nothing else. The republican party had inaugurated every political reform in the country since mot), it was a vain ming, to 100 k to un democratic part v to recognize the exist ence of reform until it hud been forced upon it bv the action ot the people. 1 he prop osition now made was that the majority should take possession of the responsi bility which nnd Dcen placed upon it by the votes of the people of the country. Mr. Holman, of Indiana, characterized the proposed code as being a complete revolution in parliamentary procedure, extraordinary in its character. He espe cially antagonized the cluuse providing that 100 members, shall constitute 11 quorum in the committee of the whole, declaring thnt this provision would place the great appropriation hills at the mercy of a handful ,01 the majority. He spoke of vurious occasions upon which resort to the filibustering methods had been of benefit to the country, and re ferred with much emphasis to the defeat of the force bill by the minority under the lead of Samuel J. Kandull; aiid he de clared Mr. Randall's course at that time would crown his memory with honor as long as the recordsof congress would sur vive. Mr. Pavson, of Illinois, defended the proposed code and nrtrucd the necessity of the rules which would give to the ma jority power to tuke affirmative action. Mr. Hatch, ot Missouri, said thut he would not attempt to argue in detail the radical and violent changes in the rules. Me made war upon the report as nn en tirety; he made war upon it us a change in the system of procedure of the house liecuuse he thought that he could see through the evil motive behind it. He wns opposed to the report til toto, be cause it was partisan, Iwcnuse it came trom the republican side ol the house rep resenting the republican party; because it came from the majority of the repub lican representatives, which hud whip ietl into traces the minority of their party, and comticlled them under pains and ienallies ot the party lash to ii- prove the rules, ns a whole, tie believed in parties; lie stood by his party; he wus not complaining thnt the republi can organization hnd lieen strong enough to induce some ot us strongest men to support the rules, but in that inducement lay the danger to the country, lie de precated any harsh lanu'uaL'c orephithets addressed to the siieaker of the house. that did not include in their strictures the entire rcptiblicun party. The siieukcr of the house, bad as he was, was no worse than his party. The republican party had time and time nenin sustained tile speaker in his revolutionary and unconstitutional rul iniis. The republicans had acted well in electing Mr. Keed as speaker. To-day Mr. Keed represented more clearly and fairly than uny other man the scheme and purpose and determination of his party. The gentlemen on the other side had said only theVights ol the minority were to discuss and nmcntl, but as far ns the democratic minority wns concerned one of their rights wus to protect the pub lic treasury. Mr. McAdoo, of New Jersey, antagon ized the rules ns giving to the siieaker right to judge conscience of a memlier, to impugn his personal honor, us well lis to restrict his personal riuhts. Pendintf further debate the house (m accordance with a resolution offered by- Mr. Springer) nt S o'clock took a recess until 11 o'clock to-morrow. The debute on the rules will continue to-morrow. At 6 o'clock the house will take a recess until H o'clock when the discussion on the democratic side will be closed by Messrs. Carlisle and Springer. Mcven Youths) Drowned. Nkw Oki.kanh. February I).

Clary, a farmer, who lives five miles from here, seems to have determined to exterminate his whole family. He first undertook to kill his diitighter, eighteen years old, by shooting her with a pistol, hut wus thwarted in the attempt by ncighlxirs who were sent for to protect the Inmilv.

She was unconscious yesterday, but is thought to lie some what better now, Sheriff Kisir, ns soon ns he learned of the nflhir, went out Sat urday night and brought Clary here anil lodger) him in jnil yesterday morning.

MOODY'S WOOD YARD. A Moat Useful Induntry to the Clt. Isena or Attnevllle. Wc rode down yesterday afternoon with Mr. E. C. Moody to see the work ings of a new enterprise he has recently inaugurated here, and which is now in prosperous operation. It is a wood yard, in which the wood is received, cut up by strum into suitable lengths, split into such sizes as may be desirable and then delivered to customers through the city. The ynrd, which covers an acre ol ground, lies immediately on the railroad track, and the wood is brought from the country along the line of the road nnd unloaded directly into the ynrd. Here it is loaded as needed on little cars run ning on a little trnmwuy, and leading to a little saw mill, where a 7-horse power engine runs a circular saw, which cuts the wood into suitable lengths. The pieces are then thrown out near by u "wood splitter" which is run by steam, nnd working a wedge moving vertically, and the wood being set on edge on a block is split into fuel or kindling wuod with rapidity und completeness. There is something appalling in the remorse less stupidity of this splitter, which, less than any piece of machinery we ever saw, lacks the element of intelligence. It does the work required of it without asking a why or a wherefore. After be ing split, the wood is londed on a dump tnd taken by the tramway where it is sorted into piles o( fuel wood, green and dry kindling, and then awaits the de mands of customers, to whom it is hauled by Mr. Moody's teams on orders. (t is londed on wagons whose capacity is exactly measured, so that consumers get exactly what they have puitl for. A great public convenience is subserved by this enterprise, which derives addi tional value from the certainty of its supplies, the excellency of the material, und the exact uniformity in size nnd measurement. This is not the first wootlyard estab lished near the river. Seven years ago Mr. Pierce, a gentleman then recently Irom Maine, established one near where the cotton factory now is. He hnd his wood flouted down the river tors dis tance of fite miles and brought to the foot of a tramway, which ran from the riverside to the railroad. He. cut up his wood by a steam saw as Mr. Moody does. He employed ns his rafters a gang of Penobscot Indians whom he brought out. The scheme failed after a few months of ex'wriment. In connection with his scheme, Mr. Pierce hntl brought here on flat cars a flat bottomed steam boat, uIhiuI thirty feet long, which he expected to make useful ns an excursion boat. In this he was disappointed, nnd the boat was afterwurds transmrted across the mountains and launched upon the waters of Broad river.
