The ticket nominated by the Democratio Convention laRt .Saturday is conceded by all parties to be a very good and strong one.

Was it necessary to the strength of the ticket that-no regard Bhould be paid to the relative Democratic strength of the several precincts, but tlrnt JRgpublican townships should be permitted toneutralize the votes of Democratic strongholds? •'V Was that fair? Was it honest? And is it natural that victims, thus sacrificed, should yield tg the swindle without a murmur? Those victims and their friends do not think so, and, whatever others may say, they do not concede that the ticket is either a "good" or a "strong one." And is it reasonable to suppose that the Irish wing of the party will concede that the ticket is strengthened by the exclusion of their nationality -M from its composition? Can they meekly pocket insult upon insult, year after year, and continue to hurrah for lhe men who use them only to acccfcjplish their own selfish ends?

In 1824, so the record says, Samuel S. Graham, Wm.^Ramsey and Adam Keller, by virtue of their high prerogatives as Commissioners of the said county of Jenninge, issued their mandate to all taverns in said county, allowing each to charge their guests at the following rates, to-wit: French brandy, 25 cents per half pint peach brandy, 12J cents per half pint whisky 12$ cents per half pint horse for night, 37J cent's lodging 12J cents horse feed, 12J cents rum, 25 cents per half pint wine, 25 cents per half pint breakfast and supper 25 cents dinner, 25 cents. These were halcyon days, when landlords' bills were limited by law—there is no limit to them now—when the "weary worn"—could become oblivious on twelve and fa half cents' worth of peach brandy, feed on a ••square meal" for twenty-five cents, and have a good time generally, according to law, on an exchequer of seventy-five cents.

ports finding block coal in Daviess coun ty, seven miles east of Washington, and from indications, expects to find it all along the eastern margin of the coal field running through the eastern edge of Greene county, and the western part of Martin, Dubois and Perry counties. He has also found this coal in Spencer and Dubois counties, and has reason to believe that he will discover it in both War rick and Perry counties. So far it has been confined principally to the eastern margin of the Indiana coal fields. The rest of the coal basin in these counties contains to a great extent nothing but coking coals. At Washington this latter coal is found in abundance, and of a quality which the Professor says is but little, if any, inferior to the Pittsburg coal, for gas and the manufacture of coke. The bed at this point Is from three to five feet thick, and from three hundred to four hundred tons per day are being mined from tho seven or eight mines now in operation there."

THE Evansville Courier'says that at an early hour on Monday morning there seemed to be an unusual commotion among the cigar makers of that city, and finally they were seen moving in a sort of procession up town. It was soon ascertained that two men, named Hart and Williams, both cigar makers, disagreeing as te which was the better man, had agreed to go to Kentucky soil to decide the question by brute force. A large number of the friends of each party accompanied the belligerents, to witness the beautiful and refining recreation of two brutes in men's skins, beating aud bunging up each other's eyes and noses. They fought thirteen rounds, at which Hart threw up the sponge, but claims to have the best of the fight, Williams being the worse punished of the two. Unfortunately neither one of the party was killed. The battle ground was Green river island, on the Indiana side of the river, and just in sight of the city. They chose the sandy point, where, we believe, no State desires to exercise jurisdiction.

PARIS,

June 21.—In the Corps Legis-

latifM. Warey Mange opened inteprctation in regard to the Saint Gothard railway. (iraminont, Minister of Foreign A flairs, replied that no interests of France, whether political or commercial, were menaced by the construction of the St. Gothard railway as the government of Switzerland had promised the French foreign officers as early as, IS66, that in certain contingencies the road should be destroyed. The French government would" pursue such a course as seemed in accordance with its interests. In regard to the Simplon, it would not refuse needed subsidies for the population of. the northern and western provinces, but simply the railway project required larger sums than the ends to which it was directed seemed to justify the government in expending.

Deputy Estareelin spoke in favor of a subsidy for the Simplon route. Picton, Minister of Public Works opposed it. General LeBgoef, Minister of War, said the Government of Switzerland would niaintairtnbr own neutrality and the neutrality of the international railway, and in the event of war she would receive assistance from France, if necessary.

Several deputies of the Left censured the Government for not interfering at the negotiation of the treaty of Berne.— Deputy Turry said the majority was responsible for Sadowa. He was called to order by the President, but continued to speak in censure of the course of the Government, asserting Switzerland was not inviola. This had Deen shown at the time of the French revolution, and in 1815, when Swiss neutrality was proved to be a mere myth.

CONGRESSIONAL.

nousi.

f! WASHINGTON, June 21. Mr. Butler, of Mass., from the Reconstruction Committee, reported a bill for full and general grace, amnesty and oblivion of wrongful acts, doings and omissions of all persons engaged in the war of the late rebellion, which was ordered printed and recommitted.

Mr. Schcnck reported back the funding bill with one slight verbal amendment, and asked that it be made the special ol der for Tuesday next.

Mr. Randall objected, and Mr. Schcnck withdrew it, saying lie would take the chances of its being made special order in the House on next Monday, under suspension of the rules.

Mr. Upson introduced a joint resolution donating four condemned cannon to Willoughby, Ohio, Soldiers Monument Association passed.

Among the bills reported was one by Mr. Ela reciting that $G7S,o02 was due by the United States to the State of Massachusetts for interest on expenditures during the war of 1812 that one-third of it has been assigned to Maine, and that the claim of both States had been assigned to the European and North American Railroad Company, and directing certificates be issued fur the same to that company.

Mr. Logan offered a resolution reciting action of the Committee on Military Affairs and tho House in reporting a resolution declaring Mr. Whittemore, by selling military and naval eadetships, unworthy of a seat in the House reciting his election and presentation of his credentials, and resolving that the House decline to allow said Whittemore to be sworn as a representative in the Fortyfirst Congress, and directs his credentials to lie returned to him.

After discussion Mr. Poland endeavored to obtain reference of credentials to the Judiciary Committee, but Mr. Logan declined to admit such resolution and moved the previous question, under action of which his resolution was adopted, 131 to 24. The nays were Arnell, Aycr, Brooks, of Mass., Butler, ot Mass., Cessna, Cobb, of N. C., Coburn, Ela, Farnsworth, Hoar, Jcnckes, Kclley, Knapp, Maynard, Morrill, of Me., Newsham, Poland. Roots, Sawyer, Smith, of Tenn., Taffe, Taylor, Twichell and Whitmore.

The House then went into Committee on sundry civil expenses bill. Mr. Dawes, Chairman of the Commitmittee on Appropriations, deemed this a proper occasion, it being the last general appropriation bill, to review the work of the Committee and. the Hyuse in regard to public expenditures. He "reminded the House of remarks made by himself in the early part of the session, comparing estimates for the next year with estimates of the last administration for the preseut year, and showing that the balance was alarmingly against the former. These remarks of his had been much commented on, and no two gentlemen had since been able to agree upon the figures fer either year. The Treasury Department had, however, employed one of its most skillful accountants to review the estimates for both years, and he now laid before the House to be printed in the Globe, the result of that investigation. It showed a balance handsomely in favor of the estimates made by this administration. Thiv summary showed the estimate made for the next year to be $8,098,245 less than the estimates for the present year. That the difference was formed by the Department correcting its own ntistakes in estimates to the the amount of thirty-two millions, all made against itself, and that correcting estimates by the last administration for the present year to the amount of about five milliona, all made in its own favor.

The Committee on Appropriations had addressed itself to the work of aedeeming the pledge it had made to cut down appropriations, not only below estimates for the next year, bul also below appropriations made for the present year. He took some pride in submitting that result to the House.

The estimates for the year ending .Tune '{0, 187J, exclusive of what are called permanent, appropriations, were $15-),-000,727. The committee had reported appropriations amounting to S141,6.'k,502, being a reduction of ?1 22"). Appropriation for the present yearijU 1S,741,147, being §11,987,03!) more than for the next year. Those figures did not include permanent appropriations, Mich as for payment of interest on the public debt, collection of customs, &c. If these were added the result would be, estimates for the coming year ?2!tS,.11.rv 812. Appropriations recommended by the committee, $2St,972,(il7. Appropriations for present year, including permanent appropriation^, $2!)7,17M,02'i, being $1,220,1:1!) more than appropriation- recommended for the next fiscal year.

The House then proceeded to consideration of the bill in detail. Its appropriations include the following:

Inspecting steam vessels fU7,:'.»0 lifesaving stations $23,800 revenue cut tor service §1,::!!,100 loans and treasury notes $200,000 expense of public lands $132,500 expenses of collection of revenue from sales of public lands $3^13,000 metropolitan police, District of Columbia $211,000 Government hospital for insane $100,000 deaf and dumb institution $10,77".

Mr. Churchill offered an amendment repealing the law which requires cutters on the lakes to be laid up, and authorizing their employment for life-saving purposes on the lakes. After discussion the amendment was rejected.

Mr. Be aman moved to strike out the item of $84,087 for completion of the main central building for the Columbia institution for the deaf and dumb.

This gave rise to a long discussion, in which Messrs. P.ntler and Dawes ofMasachusetts, took prominent parts, the former condemning the extravagance of the appropriations for that institution, declaring it cost fifteen thousand dollars to educate adeaf and dumb pupil. Heridicnled the attempt to show they can do what God Almignty never intended they should do. It was very well for exhibition, very well for Barnum, but not well for a legislature.

Without disposine of the question the committe rose and the House adjourned. SENATE.

The Senate has too much business to attend to during the next three weeks to enter into discussion of Cuban complications, and it is not likelv that the resolution will be considered by the committee, and it certainly will not be reported to the Senate unless it is demanded by a vote.
