Ramor says that Conkling was confirmed by a vote of 39 to 12, and that of those who voted against him 8 were democrats and 4 republicans.

Senator Logan has been saffering from an attack of lumbago lor several days past, and will not be able to resume his senatorial duties for some days to come.

The Evansville Courier reports a slow bat steady improvement in the health of Mrs. John M. Harlan at Washington, who is a sister of the Messrs. Shanklin of that paper. £he has been seriously iU.

Within a week the house haa passed two appropriation bills, which will possibly give the senate something else to do than listen to so many long- winded speeches which could easily be dispensed with.

The signal service bureau is endeavoring to enlist ship-owners and shippers in the project of extending meteorological observations to the sea. If the plan proposed by the bureau is followed by sea captains it will be of great advantage not only to themselves but to the Bignal service. pfe

Ez-Senator Conkling has been confirmed as a justice of the supreme court, and it now remains to be seen whether he will accept. There have been many rumors on this point, but nothing definite is known. Those in Washington who claim to know most of his sfiairs affirm that be will not decline, and that all rumors to the contrary have been pat in circulation to influence senators to vote against him. To-day will probably decide the matter.

The Pennsylvania statesmen who have been hanging around Washington waiting for something to turn up have returned to their homes in disgust. They all reside in Philadelphia, and when they arrived at the capital they found that the new* of the result of tbe election in their city had preceded them. It was an unpleasant sabiect of conversation for them, but as others seemed to take a deep interest in it, and were in search of information through them, they relieved themselves by a speedy return home.

Count De Ztmacona, late minister from Mexico to this country, is about to return to his home, but not to retire from public life. He is now a member of the Mexican congress, and chairman of the committee on foreign affairs. Daring his residence in this country he has done much whieh has greatly benefitted both countries. Not only has he maintained a good understanding between the governments but he has increased commercial intercourse between the two countries. He has mscfe many of our manufactures, particularly farm implements and machinery, known to his countrymen. He has traveled extensively in this country, and has a thorough knowledge of the people and their industrial methods, which already has been much „to our advantage, but which will be much more so when he takes a prominent part in the Mexican congress.

Many petitions from various states have been sent to congress, praying for an amendment of the militia law. Bat little modification has occurred since its enactment in 1792, and its provisions have so little application to the present needs of the country that it has become obsolete and impracticable. The petitions recommend the division of the enrolled militia into two classes, the active and inactive another recommends the recognition of the volunteer militia organizations of the respective states as the "active militia," while still another is for the increase of the annnal appropriation for the militia to $1,000,000, and that it be applied to furnishing clothing and camp equipage, as well BB arms and equipments, or, when desired by any state, may.be applied to the payments of its militia fosr duty in annual camps of instruction. This haa become an important subject, and the militia committee recommends aongress to give it that attention it deserves. So far as Indiana is concerned it woold be desirable to have congress do something, as oar legislature does not appreciate the value of militia organisations. When the state requires their services it calls for them and then refuses to give aqy com pensation.

ATTEMPTED ASSASSINATION OF QUKKS V1CTOBIA. Another inspired crank, possessing tle high sounding name ot Roderick MacLean, haa turned up. This time the inspiration was to kill the queen of England, and the attempt was made at Windsor when her majesty alighted from the train to drive to Windsor castle. Fortunately the shot aped wide of. ite mark,. &pd before it could be repeated the officers had tbe miscreant in their clutches Of the European monarchs Queen Victoria is hefd in highest esteem, and this attempt will doubtless draw from all quarters of the world mesasge of congratulation over her fortunate escape and strong words in condemnation cf the would-be murder* er. In Englard an attempt upon the life of a sovereign iB punishable by deatb, and the present case^ following so closely upon the conviction of the, murderer of President ftarfield, will be looked upon with exceeding great interest. The comments of the English press upon the conduct of tbe Guiteau trial are still fresh in the minds of all, and a speedy vindication ef the English law will be looked for. This will also ciord patriots of the (^Donovan Rossa stripe another opportunity to parade themselves before the public, and if they attempt it they should be promptly suppressed.

Unfortunately this is not the first time i}he life of Queen Victoria has been attempted. In June, 1840, an attempt to assassinate her was made by a crazy lad named Oxford, who was confined during the remainder of his life in a lunatic asylum. In May, 1842, another attempt was made by John Francis, for which he was sentenced to be hanged, but the queen interposed and commuted the sentence to transportation for life. In July of the same year another attempt was made by John W. Bean, but the pistol was stricken from his hand by a bystander before he could use it he escaped with an eighteen months sentence. In 1852 she was struck with a cane by Lieutenant Pate. Jiv

THE NEXT COKVRESSIOHAJb COSYKXTION. The republican convention that will be called upon to nominate a candidate for cocgreas this year in this district will consist of ninety-six delegates, against eighty-one two years ago. Each county is entitled to one delegate for each two hundred votes and^ fraction of one hundred and fifty votes cast for Governor Porter in. 1880. The. vote and representation of each county are as follows: County. Vote. No. delegates. Clay..." 2,821 ,14 Fountain 2,252 ,•* 11 Montgomery 3,660 '-18 Parke. .'. 2,649 f-^is Vermillion 1,549 7 Vigo 4,923 iJLftaj Warren 1.774

AOOODWOKK.

9

From the figures it will: be seen that Vigo is only twenty-seven votes short of securing another delegate, Montgomery secures one by ten voteB and Warren one by twenty-five, while Vermillion is only one vote short of another delegate. In tbe next convention Mr. Feirce will have tbe votes of Vermillion, seven, and Warren, nine, with possibly Montgomery, eighteen, making a total ,of thirty-four. As it takes forty-nine to,nominate he will have to secure fifteen mote from tbe other counties. Candidates are modest about coming forward this year. This time two years ago .there were about nine aspirants in the field making a vigorous canvass. This year none bat Mr, Peirce has been heard from. It Tbegins to look as though there is to be no opposition.

The democrats recognize the importance of doing something, and have determined to make a desperate effort to carry„every doubtful state this year. Considering the length of time tbey have been out of power, and the yearning thej have to gain the ascendency, they may be counted upon to take some desperate chances this year. An organization is to be perfected in every state early in the summer, to be followed by a united effort to stkcecd. Maine and Massachusetts are viewed with longing eyes, and they hope to control the latter through the irrepressible Gen. Butler. They claim to be certain of Pennsylvania, and in the south the independent movement is to be nipped in the bud, and the bourbon element will again blossom as the rose. These schemes all look very well, and republicans must be on their guard. Organization should be commenced at once. It was thorough organization and united effort that carried Indiana in 1880, and the same will insure success this year. A democratic victory in 1882 will again placs oar state in the doubtful list, while a republican eucce?8 will place it in line with the republican states. The republicans Bbould be at work. Delays are dangerous, and the present is the time for action.

The Nicaragua canal scheme was before the sub-committee on inter-oceanic canals on Wednesday. Admiral Ammen was not on hand, but sent in a communication which dealt only with the health of the isthmus, shewing that fevers were neither dangerous nor prevalent in lhat region. The topography of the proposed route was expatiated upon by Captain S. L. Phelps, who also gave figures showing the cost of construction, amount of earnings, amount of running expenses and the amount of commerce which wonld cross the isthmus. OI course he did not fail to show tbe feasibility of the scheme, and that the earnings would far exceed the guarantee asked by the United States government. The government guarantee to the enterprise being a tender subiect was not discussed, but it will come forward in good time.

Although Sargent failed to reach tbe cabinet, Secretary Kirkwood is by no means sure of his tenure of office. It is true tbe Iowa delegation are solid for him, because they want to keep him out of politics at bome, but it iir asserted the president is liable to make a change at any time, and that he will do so Within a month. The fact that Mr. Kirkwood re* fuses to make any but temporary appointments leads to the belief that he does not expect to remain long.

Governor Young's bill restricting the manufacture oi glucose provides that those who manufacture it shall display a large sign with the fact of their being s«oh manufacturers conspicuously displayed. Of coarse the glucose men object, and they have been accorded a hearing by tbe committee to-morrow.

Anthony Comstock delivered a lecture iu Washington the otiter evening on the corruption of youth in New York, which was not only interesting bat instructive. He relinquished a position in a dry goods store to do what he could towards the suppre8sim of vice, and thus far his labors have been remarkably successful. Up to the present time, he has had 582 persons arrested, of whom 251 have paid fiaea aggregating $63,931. Of immoral books he has seized and destroyed 27,584 pounds and 2Q3,238 pounds of immoral pictures For such a work he is entitled to the gratitude of all decent people, and the indorsement which he is daily receiving comes from thai class of persons to give a sufficient guarantee that his methods are honorable. As yet his work is in its infrncy. His field is the world, and if bit work is pursued vigorously tbe harvest will be a rich one. One branch of vice mentioned by him is alone an immense field—the lottery basinees. In twenty cities mentioned by him the sale of lottery tickets amounted to $1,755,000.87, ahd during six years the net profita to lottery owners in six cities were $1,442,926.78. In New York alone there are 550 policy dens, and fifty have been broken ap within a year. These swindling concerns represent a capita^ of not less than $10,000,000, and their power for evil is great. Of course on all sides he meets with gross abuse from those he is trying to suppress, but the figures produced by him show the good results which he has achieved, and the vast fields of usefulness comprised* in his work area suficient reply to all the cavil emanating from the depraved.

Republicans should bear in mind the primary conventions to be held to morrow afternoon at 2 o'clock for the township outside the city, and at 7:30 p. m. for the wards. The places of meeting and business to be transacted'will be found stated elsewhere. It is hoped that thtfre will be a large attendance of members of the party. There is nothing like making a good start in such matters.

A VETEEAN POLITICIAN DEAD.

Dealb of Col. James Serdon Brywi EvansvilleJournal. Among the passengers by thesRainbow yesterday were Col. W. W. Tuley, a prominent citizen of New Albany, and his son, Will A. Tuley, who was for a time freight clerk on one of the Louisville and Henderson mail boats, en route to Henderson, having in charge the remains of Col. James Gordon Bryce, formerly a conspicuous politician of Louisiana, but for some years ]^sst a resident of New Albany and Louisville, in wbioh latter city he died OB Tuesday in the 77th year of his age.

Colonel Bryce was, before the war, an opulent planter of Louisiana, and took a prominent part in the politics of the day, when the Democratic and Whig parties were contending for the supremacy._ He was president of the Democratic National convention of 1848 which nominated General Lewis Cass for the Presidency. The close of the war leU him in rather straitened circumstances and he came Nerth and traveled abroad, finally taking up his residence in New Albany, residing there for sejeral years, finally removing to Louisville, where he remained till the time of his death. He and. Col. W. W. Tuley were warm personal and confidential friecds, and just previous to hiB death Col. Bryce requested that be be buried by the side of his father, at Henderson, Ky.

Col. Bryce has been blind for more than twenty years, as was his father and grandfather, the blind preacher of Virginia, whom the pen of Wm. Wirt has rendered immortal. The short stay of Col. Tuley here prevented the representative of the Journal from obtaining further particulars of the distinguished dead.

"*/k Murder. ST. LOUIS, March 2.—A Verona, Mo., dispatch says: Last Monday, "Rowdy Jo," without warning and from behind a stable, fired at Sheriff J. Hopkins, of Barry county, hitting him in the breast, causing his death. Rowdv surrendered. Three years ago Sheriff Hopkins attempted to arrest a brother of Rowdy on a requisi tion from Texas for murder the latter resisted and was killed. The present assassination is the result of that killing.

DETBOIT, March 2.—A Grand Rapids, Michigan, dispatch to the Esgle from Big Rapids, states that, as the result of a drunken quarrel at that place, yesterday afternoon, John Johnson, a Swede, foreman in Stimson's mill yard, was fatally Bkot by Valentine Kohler, & German. An eye witness states that Johnson followed and threatened to whip Kohler, because Kohler refnsed to treat, and that Kohler, after warning Johnson to deeist following him, drew a revolver and fired twice, "killing Johnson instantly. Both men were about forty years old, with families. Kohler was arrested.'

KILLED HIS MOTHER

DETBOIT, March 2.—On yesterday evening, Mrs. Thos. Gillem, wife of a well-to-do farmer living at Bailers' Corners, fonr miles from Armada, Macomb county, was shot through the body and almost instantly killed by her BOO, Charles B., about seventeen years of age. For soma years Mrs. Gillem has bsen in ill health, and very fretful, to much So that ehe was once taken to the Pontiac Asylum to be treated for insanity. Her unfortunate failing made life very unpleasant for the family, at times. At the hour named Mrs. Gillem was sitting up in bed, and was engaged in a wordy dispute with her son, who went 10 the closet, got a revolver, and returning to the bed shot her, the ball passing through her lungs, from the effect of which she died within fifteen minutes. Young Gillem manifests no grief or contrition for tbe crime, simply declaring that he was ready to go to the State's prison, and that now there will be peace in the house. He assisted in hitching up the horses to notify friends of his mother's death, and voluntarily surrendered to the officer. The whole community is greatly shocked at the tragic affair, and unable to account for it, except on the theory that young Gillem is not well balanced mentally

FIBST DISPATCH,

LOUDON, March 2.—6:30 P. M.—The Press Association Bays: Qoeen Victoria was fired at at the Windsor railway station to day. She cccaped unhurt.

SECOND DISPATCH.

WINDSOR, March 2.—Evening.—As the Queen was entering her carriage this evening, a man in the station yard deliberately fired a pistol at her. Theman, who was a miserable looking objfet, was immediately seized by several policemen and taken, to the Windsor police station. No one was hurt

THIRD DISPATCH.

LONDON, March 2.—The man who fired at the Queen gives his name as Roderick MacLean.

FOURTH DISPATCH.

LONDON, March 2—7:30 p. ml—The Qaeen drove off to the Castle immediately after she was fired at. The miscreant was followed to the police station by a large crowd of people. Newspaper hawkers are now crying the news on the London streets. It causes a great Bensation.

As soon as the Queen arrived at the Castle she ordered an equerry to proceed to the depot to inquire if any one had been hart. The report of ths piBtol was sharp, but not loud. MacLeab apparently intended firing again, when the revolver, which seemed to be anew one, was knocked from his hand by a bystander and handed to the police. Eton scholars were prominent in the attempt to lynch MacLean. Ponsoneby, the Qaeen's Secretary, proceeded to the police station, and after obtaining all tbe information possible, telegraphed to Gladstone the facts of the assault. It is understood that the Qaeen has not sustained any shock. MacLean iB said to be an inhabitant of SoathBea. The general opinion is that the act was the result of Janacy.

DETAILS.^

LONBON, March 2.—The miscreant gives his name as Roderick MacLean. He was with difficulty rescued from the crowd. The Qaeen arrived at Windsor about 5:25. She had been in London since Tuesday, where she gave a drawing room on Wednesday, in honor of Princess Helens,of Waldeck,who is to marry Prince Leopold. The crowd assembled at Buckingham Palace this morning in hopes to see the Qaeen drive out. The demeanor at the people was cordial, as usual. There wa3 a large crowd of spectators awaiting the Qaeen's arrival at Windsor. The Qaeen walked across the platform of the railway station to the carriage which was in waiting to take her to the Castle. John Brown had already ascended to the seat behind the carriage, when a man standing at the entrance to the station yard among the spectators pointed a pistol at the carriage and fired. To jadge from the repon the pistol was not heavily loaded. The Qaeen, who wasu. probably not aware of What had happened, was immediately driven to the Castle, bat before she passed the man had been seized by the Superintendent of the borough police, who was standing near by. He waa violently seized by the crowd, and only rescued when three or four policemen came to the Superintendent's assistance. The piBtol was captured by one of the crowd. MacLean, who was miserably clad, was taken into High street, and thence conveyed to the police station in a cab.

THS NEWS IN CANADA.

TORONTO, March 2.—The announcement of the attempt to assassinate the Qaeen occasioned great excitement here. Only when it was learned that tbe at« tempt was unsuccessful did tbe people breathe easier.

Otber Forelam *ew», THE COMMONS.

LONDON, March 2,—In the Commons this evening, Sexton, Home Raler, resumed the debate on Gladstone's resolution in regard to the committee of the House of Lords appointed to inquire into the working of the land act. Sexton criticised the administration of the land act. He stated that'out of 70,000 applications to the land Court, only 1,313 cases had been decided within the past three months, the result being that it would take years to adjudicate the entire number. Meantime the tenants whose cases remain "undecided would be compelled to continue to pay back rents. Sextoil concluded by pointing out that the provision of the land act requiring the erection of cottages for laborers had been almost entirely neglected.

Healv favored inquiry into the working of the land act. AN EMIGRATION MOVEMENT.

LOUDON, Marsh 2.—A deputation representing the thousands of unemployed penons in London, waited on the Lord Mayor to aak his advice and aid, especially in regard !o emigration. The Lord Mayor advised them to confer with Gait, High Commissioner for Canada, and promised his assistance if Gait could devise any scheme of emigration,

VEST'S BILL.

Some Democratic Congressmen are very much opposed to giving anything like party support to Vest's bill for whipping out the national bank circulation. They say this is a dangerous question and that the Democratic party will suffer if it supports the Vest bill. There will be an effort pi obably to smother it in committee as the best way of getting rid of it. One Democrat says it may be a very good measure for Missouri, where Greenbackism prevails, but that it is a dangerous one for the party to endorse and that he is determined to oppose it.

TBE SKtATK.

WASHINGTON, March 2,1882. Gorman offered a resolution directing the Postmaster General to transmit a statement giving the amount expended during tbe fiscal year ending June 30, 1881, for special facilities for fast mails, a list of railroad companies reoeiviag the same and the amount paid each company, the additional service furnished by each company, if any, and to what extent the service has been expedited also, a detailed statement of the contracts made for special fast mail facilities daring the present fiscal year to date, the amount to be paid to each railroad company and the character of the additional service to be performed by each company Adoptee.

Vance offered a resolution reciting the cost of collecting the internal revenue tax in the sixth co&ectioa district ot North Carolina, nearly 60 per cent., being greater than that of any other district in the United States that many and serious charges against the officers are openly made in the newspapers and elsewhere, and are generally believed providing for the appointment by. the President of the Senate of a committee of three to investigate the charges and complaints, with power to compel the attendance oi witnesses, etc.

Shermsn regarded the resolution as extraordinary, and in the nature of an executive order. He supposed it re ferred to the matter pending in the executive session and before the Committee on finance. He wonld sot object to calling on the Treasury Department for information, but he certainly objected to a recital about which the Senate could know nothing.

Vance said he had twice applied for the information he desired, once by a Senate resolution and then by letter to the Commissioner of Internal Revenne, and in each instance had encountered a clear and unmistakable evasion of his demand. The matter had been a public scandal in North Carolina lor tan years, and as he wanted to get at the truth he would insist upon a vote on the resolution at the earliest moment

The matter was laid over, under the objection. Conger, from the Committee on Commerce, reported favorably, with amendment,the House bill to promote the efficiency of the Life Saving Service,and to encour age the aaviag of life from shipwreck. The amendments consist of the two sections of the Senate bill which provide a pension for two years for widows and ohildrsn of keepers and surfmen who may lose their lives while in (he service, and for the payment of salaries to keei ers and members of crews during the time of sickness or disability resulting from wounds or disease contracted in the line of duty placed on the calendar.

The Senate then took up the Chinese bell, and Grover spoke in advocaey. Farley, replying to the iioints made in the speech of Hoar, quoted from Senator Morton's minority report in 1876 on tbe Chinese in California, the conclusion of its author being that this class eould only be protected from persecution and outrage by our giving them suffrage and citizenship, their influence as citizens being sufficient to ensure their protection. He then asked Hoar to state squarely whether he endorsed this sentiment and favored the enfranchu^ioent and naturalization of the Chi»ef-\

Hoar rep!ku that be was in favor of admitting to citizenship all foreigners who renounce foreign allegiance, and who were fit for it in character and intelligence, and were attached to our Government. He woold apply the test with reference to the character, not the color of the skin of the applicant. He waa quite as willing to admit to suffrage the young Chinamen who last year received IJU D. at Yale college, or the learned and admirable gentleman who died at Cambridge last week, as the California persecutors of the Chinese, whom Senator Morton has described as "fierce and unscrupulous ruffians."

Farley, resuming, denied that the people of California had oppressed or maltreated the Chinese, but without concluding yielded the floor for an executive session, and when the doors reopened the Senate adjourned.

TBK HOUSE.

WASHINGTON, March 2,1882. There waa a good deal of confusion this morning, owing to members demanding recognition of the Speaker.

The contested election case ef McDowell vs. George, of Oregon, was dismissed. A letter from the Director of tbe Mint, stated that from March, 187S, Co December, 1881, the average monthly cost of silver bullion purchased by the Treasury was $2,067,805, and the aversge amount of coinage $2,290,891.

The House then went into Committee of the Whole, Rice, of Massachusetts, in the chair, on the consular and diplomatic appropriation bill, which appropriates $1,198,530. being $12,000 lees than last year, and $115,000 les than the estimate.

Burrows, of Michigan, gave a brief explanation of the varioas'provisions of the bill, asserting that the committee, in drafting the measure, had endeavored, while not crippling the diplomatic service, to strengthen the consular service by which would be widened the avenues of trade.

Wbitthorne, of Tennessee, in a speech, commended the foreign policy of the administration of President Garfield, the steps taken by Secretary Blaine to modify tbe Clayton-Balwer treaty, and his attempt to bring abontfan understanding between tbe powers representing tbe American people in American governments in regard to questions purely American.

In the course of the discussion, Orth, of Indiana, spoke from the Democratic side of the chamber, and be waa frequently interrupted by Hewitt, of New York, and Stockalager snd Holman, of Indiana, but the subject of the interruption and repliea were inaudible on the Republican side, on account of tbe great confnsion. The colloquy between Orth and Holman had reference to the loyalty of Indiana Democrats during .the war, but. was cut short by Kasson, of Iowa, who claimed the floor, saying that since tbe war had been carried from Ireland into Indiana it was time tbe House should return to the consideration of the pending bill. He regretted that the gentleman from New York ^Hewitt] had brought up a question which was totally alien to any sabjeet contained in the bill. He then proceeded to defend the aetion of the present Administration, arguing that Congress should wait nntil the official papers were presented, before it pronounced judgment, and venturing the statement that the prea-,

ent President and Secretary of State would be found fnlly equal to the taak of protecting both the honor and interests of the United States so far as it waa in the line of their doty.

The committee soon afterwards rote without action, the Senate amendments to the post route bill were concurred in, and the House adjonrned.
