In the House Ray moved to dispense with the reading of the journal and on this demanded the yeas, and nays, this being for the purpose of seeing whether there was a quorum present. -There was a : dispute as to whether enough rose to demand yeas and nays and the reading of the jour nal was called for. Fifteen rose and the last vote was only 1. The clerk was so slow in finding the journal that Ray, Democrat, at tacked him and this led Speaker Walser to leave the chair and attack Ray in a bitter speech. Ray replied in a scortcher, but said that he had not reflected upon the Speaker. He denounced the latter's language. Walsgr then apologized and so did Ray.

To-day is the last day of the legislature. , Adjournment will surely come at 8 o'clock to-night, for there is no quorum present to-day and the legislature is still in session only by consent to en roll bills. " .' - ' ' It would have -been far better for the f usionists, however, if a they had adjourned yesterday for the proceedings last night will give them the - blackest sdrt of at! eye. The action of speaker Walser was tyrannical ana un fair in the extreme and 'gave rise to sensation after sensation. Tumult reigned and the whole evening must have seemed to the legislators present like a bad dream. The minority was simp ly run over. Two of the speak' er's actions were unprecedented, one was his voting in order to make the necessary 1 number to bring about a suspension of the rules of the house. Smith ob jected to this on the ground that the speaker was ioroiaaen irom voting bv rule 8. This made no difference to Walserand he went right on, rough shod, declaring Mr. Smith out of order. Smith her.ame so ansrv that it was with difficulty that he was prev ented by friends from attacking Walser in the. chair. The other ruling was to close the doors of tno House ana noiw lei meiuuera go out or come in. As this was done -without a call from the house it was unprecedented and tyrannical in tne extreme. , - As it was. this ruling of --the chair brought about one of! the gravest and most . disgraceful scenes that has ever been wit nessed in the Legislature. A riot was narrowly averted. Abe Mid dleton, ' the negro door-keeper, in following the speakers 'in structions was standing within the hall,- holding the door with both hands. Capt. K. U. teenies, and Mr. Lee, from Haywood, at tempted to leave, the hall, but . . r V i mi were stoppea oy Aiiaaiewn. i ney resented this and.. a struggle en sued: other negroes rushed to Middleton's aid and members and spectators rushed to the der fepse of Capt. Peebles. - In- an instant there was a whirling, struggling mass of vmen about the door. Pistols were reacnea for and there would undoubtedly have been bloodshed had not the door flew open and Capt. Peebles and Mr. Lee .gotten out. .jar. struck over the eve and Capt. Peebles' arm was caught in the door ana nuri. a rioiwas mnat. fnrt.nnatelv averted, but the incident will long be remembered as & most disgraceful one a ne ro laying hands ' in violence onon a legislator. uut tuen this seems to ne . a nigger ses i " . ... sion."

Carib bean Sea to the Atlantic a ship was seen coming out irom unaer Cape Maysi, the eastern point of Cuba. The stranger laid her course with the evident object of intercepting the Allianca, and at 7 o'clock she hoisted the orange and crimson solors, which taken with ner buna ana general appearance, left no doubt in tne minds or tnose aooara iu auw nca that she was a Spanish man-of-war. No sooner were the frir- boat's colors Been at her mizzen-neak than uapt. uross man. of the Allianca ordered the Stars and Stripes to be hoist ed on the lack-staff over the taff riail and dipped three times in salute. The marine courtesy waa returned in kind by the war- shin, and the Alhanca's ensign was unbent from its halyards and stowea away. . Hardl v had this been accom plished than the Spaniard again Hisri laved his colors, ana as a mark of extra politeness Captain Crossman ordered the Alliance's flag to be run up and dipped again and then lett nymg.

The course of Jhe 6hot could be seen where it richochetted along the water be fore finally going to the bottom, a full quarter of a mile short, of its mark.

There was quite a hubbub in the House yesterday afternoon, when Mr. Ray, of Macon, offered, on his own behalf and in behalf of those Democrats present, a protest o the action of tho House in passing Lusk's resolution con taining "a pack of lies" in regara to the adjournment in honor of Fred Douglass. The protest was couched in respectful language and was such a plain statement of facts that Mr. Gizzard French was forced to admit on tho floor that it was "technically true." -' It aroused the ire or tho Populists to a boilinjr point, be cause jt stated tho fact that tho original resolution of Crews to adjourn at 12 o'clock, in honor oi Douglass, was amended to read "when we do adjourn" on motion of Mr. Grumpier, Popu list member from Sampson. Mr. Johnson, Populist from Sampson, wanted that portion oi tne protost that referred to the motion of his colleague stricken out. He admitted that Mr, Crumplerdid make the motion to amend the Crews resolution to adjourn in honor of Dbufflass "when we do adjourn" instead of "12 o'clock," but contended that the Speaker ruled Mr. Crumplors amend ment out of order. The Speaker said that Mr. Johnson was richti The fact that Crews, of Granville, accepted the . amendment or suffcestion fit does not matter which you call It) of Mr. Crump- ler, of Sampson, ana that tno identical words used by him, in his amendment or suggestion, are used in the resolution, shows that Mr. Johnson and the Speak er are tiuibbiinsr over twceaie dee and tweedle-dum. The material point is that tljo Ponulist member offered no ob jection to adjourning in honor of Douglass he only wanted to change the hour of adjournment. In other words.
