SENATE. Washington, Dec. 17.

pointment of a commission to" inquire into the alcoholic liquor tratic, were referred to the committee on finance.

Edmunds submitted the following: Whereas, since the last session of the Senate, the Vice President of the United States has deceased: therefore

Resolved, that on the 7th of January next, 1876, at one o'clock in the afternoon, the Senate will proceed to the election of a president protem.

Edmunds said he oflered this resolution and would like to have it lie over and be printed, in order that during recess the senators.might look up precedents, and consider the important question which has been suggested in the newspapers and otherwise, in respect to the speaker of the House ot Represenatives and the'President of the Senate, in the event of what in the course of life was probable, a contingency. He had no personal doubt that the present presiding officer of the Senate was the president pro tem. within the constitution, but in his (Edmunds) opinion, that it was advisable, if there was any possible donbt about that, the Senate should put the question at rest.

Mr. Thurman suggested that the Senator from Vermont should consent to having the resolution referred over to the Committee on Judiciary, of which be (Edmunds) was Chxirman, or to the Committee on Privliges and Elections. If referred to the committee the report could be made, and the Senate should have a report upon it from the same committee.

Mr. Boutwell suggested that it be referred to the Judiciary Committee, Mr. Thurman moved that it be referred to the Committee on Privliges and Elections.

Mr. Saulsbury said he was a member of the Committee on Privliges aud Elections, but he did not seek to avoid any duty, but it occurred to him that the question properly belongs to the Judiciary Committee, and ho moved to refer it to that committee.

Mr. Edmunds said that he was willing to have it referred and the motion of Mr. Saulsbnrv was agreed to. Subsequently that motion was reconsidered, and the resolution was referred to the Committee on Privliges and Elections.

The Chair laid before the Senate the unfinished business, it being the resolution of the Senator from Indinna (Morton) authorizing the appointment of a special committee to inquire into the emotion in Mississipi.

Mr. Thurman hoped the discussion upon the resolution would go over until Monday.

Mr, Bayard said that a number of Senators had accepted an invitation to visit the centennial building in Philadelphia to-morrow, before the Senator from Indiana brought in bis resolution. Had they known his resolution was to have been brought forward tfeey would not have accepted the Inyita tion. He (Bayard) was not one of those who had accepted, but others h-ad, and they would not like to be disappointed.

Mr. Morton said be had been spoken to by several Senators who had made arrangements to go to Philadelphia. With his experience in the Senate, he knew the-difficulty in attempting to keep the Senate in session to dispose of the matter. If a vote could be taken in an hour be would be glad to have it if not, he would not press the resolution to-day, and therefore made 110 objection to it going over till Monday.

The Senate then went inio executive session, and upon the opening of the doors, adjourned until Mondaj' next.

Beecher Favors Op-Bing Investigation.

NewYork,Dec.17—At the business meeting at Plymouth chu.

First—The calling of an advisory council of churches for Jan, 11th, to conside whether Plymouth church in its rules for the maintenance of diccipline etc.,has gone beyond the rules of a church of Christ, and the fortitude and confidence of Congregation* al churches.

Second—To consider rule seven, the dropping of members with or without notioe as is deemed just by a twothird uote of the church, on the recommendation of the examining committee, or on the application of members or otherwise.

Third—That a member so dropped is not under any implied census, and whether there-is anything inconsistent with the word ot God orChristain justice in that rule.

Fourth—Whether it is contrary to the law of God to allow any mode of terminating the connection of a member with the church, other than a letter of dismission or excommunidation.

Fifth—Ought a church toconsent to call other cnurches to investigate the character of a pastor, when requested to do so by a member who never made the charges against the pastor, and when such request is made for the first time more than a year after an investigation has been made of the charges against the pastor, and he was sustained by a unanimous vote.

Sixth—Ought a Christian church to adopt, concerning the following class of members: those who deliberately and permanently absent themselves without asking for letters of dis mission,

011

the ground that the

church has not taken certain steps it was not asked to take those who absented themselves on the same ground, but have asked for such steps, and the church declined those who absent themselves on the same ground, but believe the pastor guilty of a crime, though the church has tried and acquitted the pastor witho.ut a dissenting voice members who absent themselves for any or all reasons so stated, and members generally reported and believed to have made charges of gross immorality against other members, and who, being uestioned, do not deny or affirm the truth or otherwise, of their charges. A motion being made to adopt the report, the clerk Shearman, moved a slight amendment.

Mr. Beecherinquirrd if that would not open up the whole investigation of 1874?

Mr.^Sherman replied, "Yes." "Tbeu," said Mr. Beecher, "I am for it." (Applause.)

After the motion was carried, Mr. Beecher said: There never was a man in America so tried as I have been— (la'igh'.er)—tried by the newspapers, .wid theu by a committee of the church, for two months availing ita»elf of every source of information, and I was acquitted, and then for six months by as able counsel as ever faced a judge. There is not in the record of American jurisprudence, such a trial as that, and nine out of twelve of the jnry believed I was in* noceDt. (Applaufe.) Now I bear it sa that all this time this church is afraid of trying me. [Laughter.] They want auother trial. [Laughter.] Nothing done, after eight months of investigation, and this chureh has more interest in knowing about their pastor that any other body. Nobody needs so much an absolute confidence in a pastor as this church. Men say I dou't want auother trial. Find a better tribunal, and with more time than the court, and I shall not object but wheu my avowed enemies, in warsare witu this church, want to try me on four large imperial octa» vos, and want that continental mass of iniquity to be disposed of by ministers who can give about three days to it, I must object. I am not afraid, but if any man say« the cohdut of this cljurch is evasive, it is not so, so as a pastor is concerned. [Applause.] Under the approved rules.of equity, I am as willing to face inquiry as I am that greater tribuual where my God is to be the judge. [Rapturous applause.] Nothing less will I face. I will not face where the wolves aud foxes are to be my judges. [Enthusiastic applause.] if such an advisory council should say another investigation is necessary, I would say, "Do it, do it." If they should say not, I certainly should not object, [Laughter.] Mr. Thos. J. Tilney was elected clerk Vice Shearman resigned. The motions to change the rules as to dropping members were opposed and withdrawn. Adjourned. 1-

A 1K£AH!

And young men shall see visions, and old men shall dream dreams We believe that this is the correct quotation, it it aiu't we don't charge anything extra for the above bit of scripture. If yon would rather have it that old'men shall see visions and young men dream dreams, go abead. This is a free country. f.s

But talking about dreams. -1 We have the best authority for believing in dreams, for we remember that the Bible tells us that Joseph got out of a mighty tight place once by iaterpreting a dream that Mr. Pharaoh dreamed. And Joseph could just beat any fortuneteller of bis time. He started out a poor boy in the world, under adverse circuma stances,With a coat that was an advertisement for a paint manufactory his brother threw him into a pit, right behind the orchestra, and deserted him. But Joseph went right ahead, and except a slight misunderstanding with Mrs. P.itiphar, Joseph's record is just as clear as George Washington's.

And we don't believe Mrs. Potiphar was any great shakes, anyhow. But about dreams. We know they come true. The first tim9 we ascertained this fact was when we were a boy. We "played hooky" from school aud went home after dark, slipped up stairs the back way, and went to bed. That night we dreamed we got a horse-whipping, and sure enougu, the next morning it came true.

And that's the reason we believe in dreams. Another time we dreamed we found a pockfet-book with about $i5,000 iu it. The next diy we got turned out m- the house because we couldn't pay rent, three grocerymen stood at the frontdoor, with bills in their tiands, and two constables watching the back door, while the Sheriff sat on top of the chimney,

Ho we know dreams...al ways come true. But-that has nothing to do with what Uncle Jimmie McKinzie dreamed twenty'five years ago. He dreamdd that in the vicinity of where Moberly now stands was a

Food in

Laborers Clamwing for Montreal.

morning

about a thousand unemployed people, mostly French Canadians, ass sembled in front of the city hall, where they remained for some time in an excited state, but beyond relieving a bread wagon of a dozen loaves of bread, no reprehehsible acts were committed. Alderman Grenier spoke to the crowd, and advised them to adjourn until three P. M„ when the council wouid be ready to give an answer in'response to their demand for work and bread, The majority of the assemblage then marched through the streets in a tumultuous column. At 3 o'clock in the afternoon, the disorderly throng of over 2,009 surrounded the city1 hall and despite the large body of police, the mob attacked a beer wagon and took the casks and drank the contents. A bread wagon was then cleaned out. And ten minutes later a fight took place. Order was restored with great difficulty. The Aldermen looked up the various departments aud discussed the propriety of reading the riot act. The Mayor then addressed the assemblage from the balcony. He counselled the greatest moderation on their part violence only makes mat* ters worse said the Council was to meet and give the case their earnest consideration. He reflected on the few who wanted to create disorder, and was interrupted by cries of "We are suffering and want food." At a quarter to four the Council commenced deliberations. Meanwhile several encounters took place between the police and the excited mob, Chief Fenton taking an active pirc. Seveial arrests were made, and upon the approach of reinforcements the crowd fled in every direction. A'number were intoxicated, and while no doubt the large numbers of laborers present really were deserving, many simply wanted an opportunity to plunder. At the Council theMiyor read an answer from Bremer Mackenzie to his letter, describing the state of destitution in the city said there was too great a disposition to lean upon the Federal Government in this crisis. They could apply no special policy touching the case. Contracts has been let for a portion of the canal enlargement, and the contractors will proceed with every portion possible during the winter. But to go ahead would requrre the emptying of-the canal, thus throwing thousands of millers out of employment. The route of certain portions of the canal is not yet de~ cided on owing to the engineering difficulties. The contracts to let during the winter will furnish a good deal of employment early in the spring. The Mayor said that now was the time for the Council to take measures for their relief, not by distributing charity, but by giving work. The Couu cil decided to employ as many as it could in earthworks, at sixty cents a day, The police are out expecting trouble tonight.

rock. He

saw the

plainly in his sonambulism that its contour and info mation were indel* ibly stamped in his memory. He dismissed the phantasy from bis mind after h«.

awoke,.as but the vision of a

distempered brain or over exerted body. Since that time tweny'five years has elasped. One day he pass* ed by a stone in this vicinity that immediately riveted bis attention. It was the exact counterpart of the dream be had years ago forgotten. Upon closer examination each particular outline came back as the faithful representation ot what he.had seen in bis vision in the

years long ago. He broke off

pieces of the stone and had them examined by an expert—an old Colored miner—who immediately pronounced them a gold bearing qutrtz, of exceeding richness.

Uncle Jimmie keeps his seoret, and places implicit confidence inthe revelation. It would be strange indeed if, after all these long years, Uncle Jimmie,s dream should come true.

Chinese Acrobats.

San Francisco Call.

The Chinese tumblers.lately introduced int§, the Jackson street Chinese Acadamy of Music are indeed marvels in their line. A number of athletic Mongolians appear stripped on the stage. At first the fighting appears to be promiscious, but six or eight finally ally themselves against one man aud try to overcome him by springing against him and stri king him full in'the breast with the soles of their feet. He meets this curious mode of attack by standing like a statue, while the others fall heavily upon the floor. A number of tables are next brought out and piled one above the other, until a'height of about twenty feet is attained. A performer whose weight is no less than 150 pounds, mounts them, and springing iu the air toward the floor and the stage, strikes both feet with a heavy thud npon the bare breast of a man standing about ten feet from the foot of the tables, throwing him violently to the floor. How a mau can sustain such a blow is a mystery.

Again the agile acrobat ascends to the op table and springing upward turns a somersault, while ail the tables except the lower one are sudden ly taken away. Upou the only table left ne falls with a force apparently great enough to break every none in his body, but he leaps up again im~ mediately aud turns back«handsprings across the stage. Again he climbs to the top of the tower of tables, while a second lies down upon a table a few feet from the base of the tower. Turning a somersault in mid air be falls upon the other body, the two breast to breast, and bounds off again with a second somersault. Other acrobats climbed to various altitudes and fall upon the stage, alighting square upon their backs with a force that was astonishing. These feats were all executed by men in a siminude condition, so there is no chance of padding their clothes. While the Americans in the theater applaud, the Chinese make no demonstrations of approval, but look stolidly on.

The manager informed the Call reporter that the tumblers are trained from childhood, and become habituated to the terrible concussion only by years of practice. He added that many are killed in training, or maimed for life. None of the feats are graceful^ but simply indicate a tremendous amount of nerve and endurance. r!'

"When the attempt was made to establish a Japanese colony and the cultivation of the tea plant in Cali fornia. we heard much of the Japanese persimmon, which was praised as a valuable fruit.

Frogs Im Sandstone

ock so

At the 8hieldmuir pit, near Motherwell, Wales, belonging to the Summerlee Iron Company, an extraordinary discovery has been made. Mr. Wilson, manager^ while superintending the driving of a mine through sandstone, was surprised to find from thirty to forty live young frogs issue from the center of amass of the stone that had been dislodged. The level in which the frogs were found is 330 feetunder the surface, aud the mass of stone was fully 100 yards from the
