The I Austrian Diet lias unacted a law which ' ! levies a tax of :?HO,OOO florins on the bourse for the support of the poor.- ' Several severe earthquake shocks were i experienced at Pressburg and Lintz. The Austrian Socialists have deter- ! । mined to make another strike in May for a May labor holiday, and the unfortunate scenes of a year ago are more than likely to be, repeated. In the Reichstag Herr Barth, a member of the Deutsche Freisinnige party | i moved to repeal the prohibitions on : I American pork and bacon imports. ‘ A London cablegram says an election ' j was hold at Hartlepool to till the Parlia- ’ i mentary seat made vacant by the death of the late Thomas Richardson.

A Kanaka legend exists that when a rod fish enters Honolulu harbor the reigning sovereign must soon die. Such a fish appeared on the 10th of November, fifteen days before the late King Kalakaua sailed for San Francisco. The priests are said to I e doing more than the government for the relief of misery in M estern Ireland. Debate in the Reichstag shows an overwhelming sentiment in favor of the admission of American pork, and the prospect is that the embargo will be quickly removed. Southeastern Russia is suffering terribly from cold and starvation. Many deaths are reported. The worst snow storm for year- prevailed, isolating many towns FRESH AND NEWSY. Slits attacking the McKinley act, similar to those begun at Chicago and < incinnati, have been entered by St. Louis importers. McLachlan Bros. A Co., of Montreal. one of the largest wholesale drygoods firms in the Dominion, is in financial difficulties, and will assign. Liabilities are between $700,000 and $900,000, chiefly due to their bankers. English houses are also creditors to the extent of 8100,000. Guatemalan officers are buying arms and ammunition in New York. A dispatch from Buencs Ayres says that the revolt in Chili is spreading rapidly. Ihe insurgents arc very energetic, and are said to be managing their campaign in a very skillful manner. R. G. Di n A Co.'s weekly review of trade says: It has been noteworthy throughout recent financial troubles that Mostorn centers of trade have been eomparativeiy free from disturbance or apprehension, and now the energv and growth of the West have their effect in larger trade and stronger confidence in Eastern commercial centers. In the reports of this week a moderate but steady increase in the volume of business compared with last year is the most striking feature. The exports of domestic products continue larger than a year ago, and the excess of exports over imports is so heavy that sterling exchange does not advance, though sales of stocks on foreign account occasionally appear. Foil; houses in Champlain street, Quebec, beneath the Citadel cliff, were almost entirely demolished by a snowslide ,/rom the heights of Abraham, not far from the scene of the fatal landslide of Sept 18.

THE NATIONAL SOLONS. SENATE AND MOUSE OF REPRESEI TATIVES. Our National Lawmakers and What They Are Doing for the Good of the Country— Vari,,u s Measures Proposed, Discussed, and Acted Upon. The House, on the 20th. experienced the stormiest scene of a very stormy Congress. I he trouble arose over a motion to approve the journal without debate, fiard words passed between Mr. Mills and Mr. McKinley. and it was not until the Sergeant-at-arms and some friends hud forced Mr. Mills into Ills seat was order restored. The row has significance from the fact, that the leaders of both skies of the House were the principals. The scene in the House was re-enacted in the Senate, when Mr. George, of Mississippi, refused to yield the floor to Mr. Aldrich, who was anxious to present the cloture resolution. Mr. George had the floor when the Senate adjourned the previous night, ami pallamentary rules gave it to him at reassembly. Mr. George’s plan is apparently, to hold the cloture otT indefinitely. The prospective struggle over the force bill is the all-ab-sorbing topic. Both sides are anxiously counting noses. Turbulence agait; marked the proceedings of the House on the 21st. and again also ft was over the approval of the journal. Mills, Bland. Rogers, and Breckinridge on the Democratic side, and Speaker Reed. McKinley, and Boutelle on the Republican, were the warring parties. Ai times ’.ntense reeling chariu terlzvti the debate—or. more properly speaking, the quarrel—and the gallery was packed by an eager, listening throng. The scene was highly dramatic. Speaker Reed, pale, but calm and firm, listened to Rogers' scathing tirade in silence, and when it was ended made a ruling squarely against the wishes of the Democrats. In the Senate also the journal became a bone of contention, and a very acrimonious debate ensued. It was as to whether or not the Senate had decided to proceed with consideration of the cloture rule. Mr. Gorman held that no such decision had been reached, while the journal announced that it had. He spoke strongly against tin l Senate ignoring the laws established for its own government. He carried his point, and Hie journal was corrected. No further business of importance was transacted. In the Senate, on the 22d. Mr. Aldrich said that the journal disclosed the fact that it was the determined policy of the Democratic Senators to prevent any legislation I or action unless their wishes as to certain measures should lie acceded to. The action of the minority was revolutionary and would be resisted. When Mr. Aldrich had concluded his remarks he moved that the Senate' proceed to the consideration of his resolution for a change of the rules. A point of order was made that the unfinished business was the motion to correct Tuesday’s journal. A long discussion followed, during which Mr. Stewart argued strongly on the Democratic side. Finally the Vice President ruled that Mr. Aldrich’s motion to proceed | to the consideration of the cloture rule was in order, and overruled the point of order that the question before the Senate was the motion to correct Tuesday’s journal. The House on the same date got down to business. apptuved the journal, and then passed Hie District of t'oiumbla appropriation bill. It then went into committee of the whole on the naval appropriation bill, general debate being limited to four hours. At 11 a. m., on the 23d, the Senate reassembled and resumed discussion of the cloture rule Mr. Hoar delivered himself of some rat her forcible and uncomplimentary remarks upon the course pursued by the Democrats. Mr. Cockrell spoke against th<‘ rm usurp, and. with frequent interrup- i lions, continued until adjournment. In the House Mr. l ooper of Indiana sent to Hie clerk's desk and invd i«m<l a 'resolution offered by him on Sept. 4 last, making charges against the Commissioner of Pensions The resolution had been referred to the select committee examining previous charges: and on the 11th of September the Chairman of that committee had been directed to report the resolution, but he had never performed that duty. In the Senate, on the 24th, there was no prayer, no journal, no morning hour, and only an exact quorum present — fortyfive Senators. The sensation of the day was the speech of Senator Stewart, of Nevada. against the force hill. Though a Republican, he has taken aposition upon this question squarely in line with the Democrats. and so forcibly that there is a rumor that he will not be invited to future Republican caucuses for the debate of the bill. Mr. Stewart affects to find in the bill sufficient explanation of recent Democratic successes, and predicts further reverses for the Republican party if the bill is ]>assed He characterized the bill as an iniquitous measure, and declared that its . principle, if carried into effect, would be more prejudicial to human liberty than secession itself. He questioned the constitutionality of the bill, and upon this point had a sharp tilt with Mr. Hoar. Mr. Morgan also spoke against the bill, and held the .floor at adjournment. After the customary squabble over the approval of the journal, ie 1 by Mr. Breckinridge, the House went into committee of the whole (Mr, Burrows of Michigan in the chair) to consider the naval appropriation bill, and soon after adjourned to noon of the 26th. Fashion miscellany. Fans with folding handles are sometimes seen. Feather plush is a novel garniture of the autumn. There is a craze among collectors for old tapestries. Clasps for ball and opera cloaks are studded with stones. Velvet calf is exceeding y popular for ladies' Imnd-bags and purses. Styles are very picturesque and materials and trimmings very rich. Torchon iace is coming in again as a trimming for sachets, toilet slips, etc. The most unique screen of the day is one that has the cabinet ornamentation. What to Teach Boys. Teach them how to be strictly truthful. Teach them shorthand and typewriting. Teach them economy in all their affairs. Teach them to be polite in their manners. Teach them history and political economy. Teach them arithmetic in all its branches. Teach them to avoid tobacco and strong drink. Teach them to ride, drive, jump, in and swim. Teach them careful and correct business habits. One womai. has made the silk gowns of the Justices of the United States Supreme Court for the past forty years, and she gets $1(10 for each one of them. They are all made alike, the only difference being in the material, the Chief Justice wearing black Chinese satin, while his associates are robed in black silk. In respect to giving, there are very few of us who give according to our ability, or anything like it. The great generosity of the world generally lies below i the medium line.

A peculiar fact with reference to Dr. Pierce’s Golden Medical Discovery is, that, unlike sarsaparillas and other blood medicines, which are said to be good for the blood in March, April and May, the “ Discovery ” works equally y ell all the year round, and in all cases of blood-taints or humors, no matter what their name or nature. It s the cheapest bloodpurifier sold through druggists. Why ? Because it’s sold on a peculiar plan, and you only pay for the good you get. Can you ask more? “ Golden Medical Discovery ” is a concentrated vegetable extract, put up in large bottles; contains no alcohol to inebriate, no syrup or sugar to derange digestion; is pleasant to the taste, and equally good for adults or children. The “ Discovery ” cures all Skin, Scalp and Scrofulous affections, as Eczema, Tetter, Salt-rheum, Fever-sores, White Swellings, Hip - joint disease and kindred ailments. SHILOH’S CONSUMPTION CURE.
