Mr. FOULKS dd not understand that this report wai tocj'.i in thij moraine. There is a minority report L3 de3'.reJ to prejire, and would endeavor to have it realy to day.

Knhsfquently Mr. FOULKE submitted a minority report from the Judiciary Committfe, tigced hy Messrs. Winter, Cimpoell of Hpndricsa nnd Foulke, in favor uf tin passage cf his bill. Mr. BAILLV offered- a resolution, which was referred to the Comoiittee on Ilnle?. to create a etanding Committee oa Citie3. AH IN' REAL lYTATE HOLDEM. A report from the . Judiciary Committee recamn:eade J the pa:sjig3 o( the bill 3.1 concerning real esiate and too alienation th"rof, with amendments that alien? nay jnheritreel estate, but must dispose ot all interest therein within five years. Mr MAGEK moved that Ilia" corslittitloual rultt ba sapendei, that thi bill i.ay ba read the fecund ard third tiniea no.v, dud finally pasfd the Senate. Mr. SMITH, of Jay, cjJ0tin;. Mr. MAGEE thubt every Senator ru w 11 informed of the provhionsof the bill. It is singly a bill to prevent el:en3 acnirin Jtrqe tract of real estate in Indiana. There is a Unk in the Democratic platform fatoMEs juet tuch clae" of l8ulation, and I thiiik the republican j Inform has one likewise. This bill simply takes us back to v?t?re the law was prior to the enactment of thf etatute of ISSt. Senators have probably fcrrr.fd thir judgment aa to the merits of this IVl He made this motion to expadlte the busire.' of the Senate. Mr. fcKLLEKü favored the biU if ha niicerfctocd it provisions aright. Mr. SMITH, of Jennings: The object of the lll is to prevent aliens those who are ret residents cf the State cf Indiana, aad woo Late ro' filed ai intention of besaoiing citizens of the United ßtates from holding real ehta in Indiana. That has always teen the policv of this State from in organization to lfeSt, but by tbe act of ISSt that piicy wj c'in d and non rivident aliens, whetner tley resided in the Unitel States tr i:. a forajgn country-, are allowed to &cquue end ho'd reI estate in tho bifte cf Indiana tKe sanis .as a cUizen thereof. That ! irr i3 a bad law. Under it3 provisions i no of acre of real estate have bsen purcasai by noarcs'dent aliens at tax salej andäoariiiy Silas, and til kinds of Ealef, until it is sa d tnai rue-resident aliens, by means cf capital tiiey ran ret invefct profitably in foreign lariti , "nee cone into thi3 fciiuu aad purchased a bU cf country of onr land extending from Ohio to llliuojs eevea milea iu wjdth. I d i not knov ow much thpy have acqiired. bat it is traethty have acquired a grsit dial. They have acquired tnia creat poaiOjj'un a:auss the pro?ii'on3 of the laws of this 8 ate which exi?Ud previous p.nd np to 1SSI. How the law of 181 was gutts'i through tbe Lfgislature, it is not Lecesary for 1111 to state cn this occasion. It is tntlicient t3 krew that non resident, a'ren-i have come into this State, aad will iu time craite a Ifendcd estate here similar to tbe one thay row Lave in Ireland. Ia ths States west of es, icilliccs cf acres of onr best lands have Ifen beught up by aliens, and they hold it ec w a landlords. Mr. SMITH, cf Jay : I am not opposed to tho fctnator's bill ; I am opposed to lha suilecsicnof the rules to pua a bill thro wn His txdy witfcuut knowing what tbe i.; vipers of the bid are. Mr. SMI IH, o! Jennings: I did not un--'er.-tand that my distinguished namesks was atreinst the bill. It was my purpose to g-vp him information 0 its proyisioa. Mr. SMITH, of Jay: It seems to me, under cur rnle3, this discussion as to tho merits cf the bill is ut of order. Lieutenant Governor M ANSON: I wai waiting fcr EO;r.s Senator, if the Senator fro-u Jecnir.gs is out cf or Jer, to call him to orctr. Mr. SMITH, of Jennings: I doa't knov trat I am out of order. The Lieutenant Governor: I don't knoTf vbfcther 5on are or not Laughter. I Mr. SMITH, of Jenninsr: I ebail cat proceed unless bv consent ot tüa Sauate. Mr. SMITH, of Jay: While I would consent to tbe bill beintr dl.cav?ei under oriixiary circumstances, I must iniist upoa my point of order. The Lieutenant Governor: The Sanator from JenninRS will pleape t?.se his seat. The motioa to suspend the constitutional restrictions was rejctad by ysai nays s tTTO-thirds not vouni: in toe atiirnaative. JCDICIAL DISTRICTS. Mr. MACY offered a resolotion for the ap. potntment of a committee of threa toad--lain from Clerks of ths Circuit Cjuru in the several counties the whole number of civil, criminal and probate co?es begun, the number of estates settled and in procesj of sattlement, the number of guardianships settisd and pending in each of faid Courts, from January 1, 1SS1, to January 1, 1835, inclaSiTe. Mr.McCl'LLOUGH moved to refer the resolution to the Committee on Organization of Courts. The resolution is too broad to be adopted as it is. The committee would hav? la employ cle;ks to get thi information, or have tne Cierks brins it here. From districts where a change is desired they always tome with an abundance of evidence that Uey are overworked. The evidence obtained under this resolution would b3 as onesided as the other. Mr. SMITH, of Jay, opposed the resolution f oiüg to tbe Committee on Organization of Ccurts. The information sought for by this resolution should be had so that the committee can act intelligently upon bill that may como before it asking relief. The rifolution oucht to be adopted. Mr. SELLERS opposed the adoption of the resolution. If tbe people wno desire a charge in their districts can not furnish ihm committee snfncleat evidence upon which the Legislature can give them relief, it ought to report adversely upon their bill. Mr. MACY: This information can be had at a small expense and would be important to the Senate. If the circuits asking to be divided are fndaad overburdened we should be informed of tbe facts in the case. The J&dges ftie paid by the .State at large, axd

nnless one has more work to do than tin averas Judge he shonl 1 not bo relieved. Mr. CAMPBELL, of Su Joppi. a.keJ the Senator if he would not be w;liin to hnra the resolution amended so as to real that the information shall be obtained from those circuits petitioning fir a change. As the molutlon reads it would involve an amount of labor entirely nnneces3ary, for a large number of circuits are not a3king for a chang?. Mr. MACY: Tne whole subject should bpcotsMered in making changes. Teuer ?15 at the utide would pay the expense.

and thtu the c iinnaittte would have infor- j xnation as to the h:de amount of l.Vojr dne by everv Jn?ce. Mr. 'McCULLOUOH: How will thase state rriP".ta b ver.fi :--d? Mr. MACY did net think any e'erk wmM certify u a lie iu rdr to ge; a change Ljal. Mr. SMITH, of Jay: Fiftean years ao our circuit was created. It has since in creased to 8",XJ. have a circuit that is wcrStd to death, aad jet thra are persons adTorat'r rew circuits that 1iav? not half the work of oir circuit. Every L?:s!ature hss ?f n pf r3oas ccmJcg h?re from ditfereut porti nsof the tit and ootalning new circuits crentf d npon the ex pafte evidence. Mr. SELLERS opposed the resolution because it incurs an expenss eatirelv for the benefit of the circuits that may ba asking for change?. Another objection is that the information will b-s nnreiiable unless made under oath. Halens the clerks are paid fjr the service thsy will not faithfully report Ironi every county. Tie argument cf the Senator from Jay conrirrrs me ia the idea that this resolution ii ?,-ror and th information sought for unnec33Hrj. Ha says many districts have not aj much wors as hia district. Thst wonld be a sufficient rcAon to report adversely upon a b:llf ?ra change of a circuit tavlr 1 ?s wo'k to do than hia. I will move the pnvions question. The demar U for iha previous qnesticn wbs seconded, and under its operations The tooticn to refr the relation t3 the C;i2Lrilt?e on Organization cf Court, was arctd tiJ. M. ADKISO. ofirred a concurrent resolution fcr the appointment cf a 87ecial committee to.consTst cf two Senators and three Representatives to draft and report at an early day a bill providing for the separation cf the Scl iters' Orphass' Home and the Asylam for Feeble Minded Children, and for tue manegercent thereof, scpara'e and apart and as distinct indi Unions. Mr. ADKION: I consider ihis a very importout resolution. As stated in the preamb'e. romr years reo a few private citizens, through fA'riotic mjtive3. donated a sum o! mcney fr the purpose of electing a home for the orphau chMdrn of ecLiiers of this S'at. Tbe lizit iure, for some reasons sati fact ory, svr proptr to ccnso'idate th'tt iLEtitcticn viitb tlu one for feeble minded children. 7r?r:eve;a roldier has had opportunity, either iu a public meeting or in private conversation, Ij express his approval ia that con sol -u 4I i.m it hai been dne. I ther era dem it but a 6irnple acted justice to the patr'oVisnfi of citizen? of this State that these inst'titions hall bi eoarated, acd that the Scldiprs Orphans' Home shall be re-establtsnyd in p-jrsuanc1) of the ictenticn of the original doners. I hope thi-j resDlutm will meet with tha Uflf.nirvins approvl I think it Is da t; the roldiers who l iVK l don their lives cn tha brtttjefiflo ; it ia du to thos who cio in vrii oa peas asd hospitA!3; it is duo tr h? tcrviycrs cf ihots tcldiois. and due iotbedlcrity of the S ate of Indiana thr tboo in?Litat!ois should ha separcl. I thertfore u ove th3 adoption of tho resolution. Mr. WILLARD: I think th-s reso'.utton bhor.id go with all otk?r im'lir resolutions wbich have heoo Litrcdacad herd, to the Cfmn ittee on Ilale-f, and I make that nut on. In tST'J I h-i i the hnorof bsin a rveu'V'rcf tha llrce cf r.-'prcsa'atatiTe, and I wl remembof that the bill for the consolidation of thPse two iusitations ai introduced by tho ntlomau from Ilenry Counly, where th iu'itu'icn was located; that it wn3 parod by that Lrg'slature, an I that the cor'solioatiou to k plar at that time. Ths oolv ch'vnit'i m?.d by tha L?is lature of 1833 was a ca.'ss cs to the gorerament. Mr. ADKISOX: Tbe point I maks is the r.ecffcitv for separation. Mr. WILLARl): That may b. I have not examined the qufstion, and I do not w:rh to ppeak on it at this time. Mr. CAMPPELL, of St. Jcs?ph: I can n'.-t undtrslaad what th? Committee oa IVales has to ilo witn any of the institutions of the Krati. I sap nosed that commitfe was appointed so prepare rules for tha government of thp Rer.a'.p. Mr. WILL ARD: Ar.d one of its duties is to t ay what the f and!:) comm;ttee3 of the Etnate Eha'l bi?. and what fciull constitute the joint comraittrps of tho Hause and Senate. Every resolution heretofore introduced to raise a committee has been so referred. Mr. CAMPBELL, of St. Joseph: lean sf e a possible propriety in referring it to the Ccmmitlf a cn Renavoisnt Institutions, but eta sfe to propriPty in referring it to the Con-mit'ee on Roles. Mr. FOULKE: I hops this resolution wiH rot be referred to any committeeo. To reff to one committee a resolution for the appointment of another committee won 1 reera to be an extraordinary proceedin.:. Either the committca the resolution pr"vidf 8 for should be appointed or it ehoul I not, and the proper place to determine that is in the Ilon-.e and not in another committee. I think this resolution ought ti pa'-s. The origin cf these two institution t was entirf ly ditferpnt, the purposes of th: two arc entirely vtltTartnt. and tha charact of the inu.ates nre entirely different. V'ny should thv b-ife b-n consoiidatfd? Mr. MAO RE. interrurting: Why can'; this natter b arco'riUphed bv ft b'll? Mr FOULKE: Rot one "of tha mo t prcper wfys of istroducing a bill is for ?. committee to take thp matter inquired abour irto consideration and report to the Hons if a bill is rpce-sarj, a prooer bill. And a committee would be most likely to report b;ll that wonld le more likely to ba entitled to the enpport ot the Senate than a bill in trodeced by any member. This proposition is one that is entitled to th3 respectful 00 s'deraticn of this Houe. No Common wealth or Repubiio can or ought to live that is not grateful to the men who bjre its nag. Gratnr.de consists not simply of granting to them liberal pensions, which has been done by cur Government, but also In providing for these they leave behind them their widows and orphans. I enppose the principal cane of the consolidation wa3 ecanomy, which is laudablo but there are points beyend which economy should not pi9s. If the orphans of eo'diers must ba sent to a public institution, and mnt be sent to the eatre one provided or feeble minded chil dren, the institct3 of everyone revolt at that idea. Tbe expense of a few dollars is as rcthing as we'ghed in the balance with the implied disgrace to the orphans ot every soldier that has to go to an institution where feeble minded ara instructed. "Why should they be under the same roofanv more than the insane and the convict? There is no reason for It. I think the resolution ought to be adopted unanimously by the Senat. Mr. M AY : While I would eo as far as the Senator from Wayne TMr. Foulke or any other Senator in providing for the orphans of soldiers, as to the merit of this matter I am rot prepared to speak, and for that reason I am in doubt as to how I shall vote on this resolution, I am opposed to making A

ypurine cf getting it out of tho way to we may all at the proper time enact a proper provision. I move to amend by referring this matter to the Committee on Benevolent Institutions. I am in favor of giving this refclution a fair end proper consideration, repardUss of partisanship. Mr. WILLARD aceppt'd tb amendmn The remainder of this day's nroctfcdioga will be fcund in Monday's issue. HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES. Fanny. Jan. IU 10 a. m.

Mr. TAYLOR moved that the further conndtration of thu Eubjct be postpvned u -til r ext Thtirrday, at 2 p. m. Mr. WILLIAMS demanded the previous question, which was seconded, and under its operations the motion wa agreed to. Mr FLOYD introduced a concurrent rp oluticn for the appointment of a joint cjmrnittee to censut of four Representatives and two Senators, to report a fee and ealary bill fcr lie tlhcers of the various counties of thi?

Mr. HANLON offered the following: Saturday, January 17, being fixed as the time of the funeral ceremonies of the lite Hon. Schuyl r Colfax, ex-Vice President of the United F ates; therefore, in honor of the distinguish' 1 dead, be it "Resolv '. Th.t when this House adjourn this afterr . .0, i; be until 10 o'clock Monday mcrnlbg." Mr. GOOLIIC eaid: I wish to iaqulra where Mr. Colfax will be buried (He is informed by the Chair that Mr Colfax wilt be buried at South Bind.) I can see no reason why this House thouli adjourn. It cone this State a thousand dollars a day to run it. We have already adjourned in honor of the death of Schuyler Colfax. I shall oopcEe the rcatien for the reason that it will net add anything o the honor of S:hnyler Colfax, at.d it will cost the people of the State unnecessarily at least $500, and I move toaroend the resolution by providing that hcn the House adjourns at 12 o'clock tornoTOW it adjourns till lOo'ciock Mouday. The SPEAKER: The House can not say to-df.y when the Ileue sbbll adjourn tomorrow. Mr. SAYRE: I have heard several times these statements how much it cost to run thi3 Hone, as though it ci? any mor to run it ihen it was not in cession than when it wes. It casts just as mu.h whether this IJouee is In region or not in fission. Tue pay of members acd employes goes on just tie fame. It seems to nre that oaght not t'be re parted by tbid House I have no objection Leu rueiubera want to be excused, and nine times out of ten it is to go home to attend to their own private busine?. Mmhiji have bten excused and leave anyway. ar.d items to 1113 as an additional mark of jht pect tu the memory of Schuyler Colfax this xcrctntijn onght ;j be adopted. Mr. TAYLOR: I shall ccrtaiuly favor the mc;ioD. I think it wunid bo quite appropriate for this House to adjourn in honor of Mr. Cdfax'H memoiy. The Congress of the Unitea b'Utta hz.z deemed it proper to adjourn. So far as personal fueling is concerned, it should have nothing t) do with it. I dilTered from him politically, but he is one o! Iciiiara's most distinguished sons. There is nothing to le loit by paying this tribute to his memory. I dfer from the gentleman from Iianccck (Mr. Gooding) when he says the mtmcry of Schuyler Colfax will not be made more llludrious. I think we will do honor to ourselves and to Schuyler Colfax by sdjourniog. As I said, he i3 one of our nicit dis'irguished citizens or has be'.m. It is rothing more than light and proper thst we adjourn in honor to his memory. In the event of the death cf Hon Thomas A. Hendricks, whom I believe has baen twice elected Vice President of tbe United States, would we doubt for a moment the propriety of aojonrniog? I think it is neccessary to pay this tribate to hia memory, and I he; 0 we may pay tho honor due to tbe distinguished dead. Mr. BROWNING: I think it is due to ourselves that wa take the course suggestc-'' by cur frieno frorn Daviess Mr. Taylor, t think it is proper as long as the Conresa "f th United States La3 adjourned that v i Fball adjourn in honor of" tho memory : Schuyler Colfax, acd if it was simply a m tion to fdjourn over until 10 o'clock Moldcy I should favor the ra..ticn, and why? Because leaves of abtenc have been granted to ten or twelve member And my experlencj in legislation i3 tha when these members como back next Mon day or Tuesday they will take np as muci t'rre cskirg for an explanation of what Lavo dena in their absence a3 if we ad jourced vfr until Tuesday. Mr. GOODING: I h.tve not opoosed pay ing due respect to Schuyler Coif ax. As 1 remarked in the first place, this Hou?e ia once edjourLed in honor to Schuyler Colfax. I am actuated, sir, by no personal motives. I W83 perionaily acquainted with Smuyler Colfax, atd our'relations ware friendly au 1 cordial. It 13 oat cf no personal matter that 1 am opposed to adjourning this Hous?, but this House has been adjourned from time to time on diL'ercnt excuses, and now thi is simply an excuse to adjourn over until Monday. It is said some mem teis have been excused, bat business will go cn tha same. That is no reason fcr adjcurnirg. It is said that the Congress of the United States has adjourned. It can adjourn on almost any occasion. They havmere than sixty days to transact bminess They can adjourn over from time to timp until the business is transacted. We artlimited to sixty days time. Everyday we an in session the Eocnor we cau get through with tbe business and adjourn. I am gjing upon the theory that we will adjourn whether the sixty days are up or not as soon as we get through the businesj before us. The rtsolution was adopted. Bills numbered from 127 to 132, inclusive, were introduced. And then the Home adjourned. "Immediate Keller."

Out of seventy-four companies (including leased lines) whoce stocks are listed at the New York Exchange, the diminutions of dividends list year of consiierable signifiCütc are the fclbwing: The Central Pacific paid 0 per cent, in 1835, ani 3 per ceat. in ISM; the Cleveland, Columbu?, Cincinnati and;Indianapcl.s paid 2 per cent, in 18Si, and ro dividend in 1831; the Hockinqj Vl ley end Toledo paid 1i per cent ia 18$; and no dividend in 1881; Hannibal and St. Joseph preferred paid pfr cent, in 1SS3, and no dividend in 18Si; the Lake Shore paid 8 per cent, in 18S3 and 7 in 1881; the Michigan Central paid 5 per cent, in 1SS3 and 3 per cercent. in 1881; the New York Central raid 8 per cent, in 1SS3 and 7U in 1S34; the Northern Pacific preferred paid an accumulated 11 1 per cent in 1SS3 and no dividend in 1884; the Oregon Improvement Company paid 7j per cent, in 1883 and no dividend in U!J4; the Oregon Railway Navigation Company paid 10 per cent, in 1SS3 and G j in 18S4; the Oregon and Transcontinental paid C per cent in 18S3 and no dividend in 1884; the Union Pacific paid 7 per cent, in 18;3 and 3M percent in 18S1. The Pacific reads exceed all ethers in magnitude of diminution of dividends from 1SS3 to 1 88 1. The important road3 running west, southwest and northwest of Chicago nearly all maintained in 1881 as large dividends as these paid in lv33. Southern roads paid about as large dividends in 1884 as ia 1833. but the net returns of each of these years fell below those obtained in 1SS2. Large sdditiens have been made to the mileage of Southern roads during the last few years, and great improvements efiectsd in their ejstems of through routs. For the time beiDsr, these advances have rather diminished than increased the profits of stockholders. Grouped Agea of Fathers and Mothers. Dr. E. 8.
