WKKJMiY IllllKl BK VV tt WW i IXDIANA. CUK11ENT The Semite Committee cm Claims will repert a Mil for the payment of $lSQ,O0t to the Vmk Agency of the Methodist Episcopal ChHreh, South, for the occupation of it building at Nashville during tfc war. Tk President has nominated Mr. A. W. Beard for CoJhetor it BoMoh. A troHg pressure wm brought to bear to secure the reaommatkm of Simmon, the present inetmht, MdU Xew England took sides In the etrevmy. Seeator Hoar supported the sueeeeeful candidate. T)m Stiver Mil became a kw without re eeivieg tbe PreeWeat'ri signature, both beueee of Congress having promptly paeeed the hill over the President's veto by the requisite two-think majority. It is as nouseed that the Sseretary of tbe Treasury will at enee Isette tbe neeewary orders to the mints to begin the coinage of the eld silver dollar. Judge Leeeard, Representative in Congress frem the Fifth Louielaaa District, bag been sent on a special mission to Culm by President Hayes, to inquire into the alleged kidnaping of eolored eitizses of Florida for the purioe of selling them into bond age in Cuba, and also to ascertain from per sonal observation the aetua! condition of the insurrection in that Island. The public debt statement issued March. 1 shows a decrease in the debt for the preceding month ot ,330,37, and the following balances in the Treasury: Currency, $2,X),7; special fund for the redemption of fractional currency, $1,000,000; speoial deposit ot legal-tenders for the redemption of certificates of deposit, $3S,fS5,(HX): celn, $131,918,160; Including coin oertlliaates, $48,466,000; outstanding legal-tender 18,&i. The Commissioner of the General Land Oflice on the 1st gave notice to 58 of the employees of that bureau, 30 of whom are ladies, that on account of want of appropriation, the Secretary of the Interior bad been forced to present to them the alternative ot resignation or forced leave of absence without pay until such time as funds might be provided. The House Committee on Pacific Railroads, by a vote of 7 to 6, have finally decided to recommend the passage of the Texas PaciSc Kail road bill. The bill reported is virtually that introduced by Alexander II. Stephens. It authorized the company to execute and deposit with tbe Secretary of tbe Treasury construction bonds at the rate of $30,000 per mile for 1,150 miles, and at the rate of if,000 per mile for 350 miles through the mountainous portion of the route, &aid bonds to mature in 50 years and to bear 5 per eent. interest. The Government is to guarantee the payment of the interest on these bends, but suoli guarantee is in no event to extend beyond the period of tbe maturity of tbe onds. As an indemnity, the Government is to have the following guarantees: A first lien on all the franchises and propertV; the retention of all duos from Government from transportation; a reconveyance to the Government of all the lands ot the road, and the transfer to the Government, " if tbe same should be necessary," of all net earnings. The report argues at length in favor of the bill; endeavors to shew that the guarantees! are ample, and that the National Government, Instead of losing money, will actually make money by the operation, by a saving In transportation every year; and also emphasizes tbe consideration that aid for such an enterprise is due . IL. (ft' n ... I. . H .1 J The River bill introduced la tbe House by Representative Gibson (subsequently Introdueed In tbe Senate by Senator Cookerell), provides that the President ef tbe United States shall appoint five engineers, deslgnatin irire if i icrcu jiumuui tut iicaiucnb ut the Commission, who shall prepare plns " and "estimates, which wHl secure a channel for sea-going veeeels at all seasons of the year frem Cairo to the mouth of the river. When theee plane are approved by the President ef the United States, the Secretary of War is te expend sueh sums as may be appropriated by Congress to' firry oh the construction under the- direction of tbe Commission, wMefc is also te have t be dlreetlen ef such surveys .as are mow' in progress below St. Louis. The Seci etary of "War is to give the Commission all boats whleh shall be needed. After tbe approval of the general system of works, detailed plans are to he prepared, a majority of tbe Commkeion to deeidf upon them. The CHiiHlkm is te furnish the Secretary of War' wfth " all these plan, and he Is to advertise for bids for the work in part or as a whole. One seetien ef the , bltl provide fer tbe saWlea ef the memibers , of ibeCommNion, whleh ameuiita are left In blank. Tlw laot section provides "for an apprepriatlon of $S00,OOO for the speedy ooniftruetion of the general cyst em contemplated by the act. The bill is based en the ; wll groHndn! opinion that Capt. JSmIs will ' be deuted L'reMdent of tbe Commlnloii. Speaker itandatl Rives it as hUt eplnloii that Congress, can adjourn July 1, the average duration Of long sewdonH. He says the Imprewlon that the Appropriations Committee U behind is a mistake, that the work of that Committee is as far advanced as uual, and that no extenl n of the eten will be neeeiwary on that account. Others are confident that there can be ne adjournment jHsfere August. The President has appointed Hon. Albert G. Porter, of Indiana, First Comptroller ef the Treasury.

With tho word guilty, Miss Davenport shrieked, and throw up her hands, and fell back into the arms ot hr stalwart betrothed. The jury was moved to tears, and the Judge hid his face in his handkerchief. It was half an hour before tho lady revived. The Court imposed a fine of fclOO, then she fainted again, and the Court adjourned. Miss Davenport and her lovor returned to Goochiaud the same evening, where they were immediately married. liallimore Suh.
