GREAT BRITAIN'S TRADK.! London, April 2.—David Mclrver, one of the proprietors of the Ounard line and .amember of parliament, writes that he does not know of any nation whose trade prospects are so gloomy as Great Britain?. The British exports to the United States are comparatively nothing in volume or value. The balance of trade is overwhelmingly against Great Britain. He says nothing except ruin remains for home industries, whether marine or agricultural, if the present 6tate of things is allowed to continue. The export trade from Liverpool to the United States is so small that when the restrictions on the importation of United States cattle are removed, it is intended to make but a few voyages with water ballast only, ship owners being unwilling :o scramble for little outward freight recently carried ais ballast at nominal' rates.

The Budget to be announced Thursday will show, it is said, a surplus of £272,000 on ordinary expenditures out of which it will be neces«arv provide for supplementary estimates(T tlo something towards decreasing the accumulating deficits of a hundred thousand pounds caused by the extraordinary expenditure in consequence of eastern affairs.

REMARKABLE WORK. Ajfew days ago the^GAZBTTB published some facts concerning the work done by U. S. route agents on the test of "throwing" the entire postal scheme of the state of Indiana. Terre Haute is proud of the result as she is ahead of all competition. Mr. Jos. Shirk of the Logansport road has made the best record in the state. He "threw" 997 cards in thirtyseven minutes and made but one error and that was cau9ed by a differance in the schemes. The scheme he studied he threw "solid" and in the shortest time for "solid'' work ever yet made.

PRAIRIE FIRES.

Several Lives Lost and Mticli Property Destroyed.

Sioux City, Iowa, March 31.—The Journal has startling reports of the ravages of destructive prairie fires up the Big Sioux valley, and throughout southern Dakota. The fires on Saturday were of unusual torce, and destructive beyond precedent. The poles on the telegraph line on the Sioux City & Pembina railroad were burned so that the line has been down and reports from that quarter arc not full. A merchant of Eden, in Sioux City, to-day tells harrowing tales of losses in that quarter. On Saturday, from hisi store door, the town occupying an elevated position, he counted thirs teen farm houses in flames, and he saythat more than forty in that vicinity have lost everything, houses, seed, grain, &c. The flames traveled with such rapidity that people were unable to save anything. The stricicen people are dazed by the terrible blow that has fallen on them. A large Norwegian church., five miles from Eden, was burnei. In the same neighborhood, a child, it is repurted, was fatally burned, and its father was terribly burned in his efforts to save the child's life. Northwest of Beloit a Norwegian named Nicholson, while working to save his property, was caught in the fire and so badly burned that he can not live. It is reported that two other men in the same locality were burned to death. In the vicinity of Portlandville.it is said, not lebs than twenty farmers lost their hay, grain, etc. West of Elk Point, Eli Richardson lost a large amount of grain. The school house, with all the books and contents, was also burned. At White Swan, opposite Fort Randall, telegraph office, with all its effects, was burned, as the operator reports from the Yankton agency. At the same place the government stables were burned, but the stock was saved. Altogether, immense damage was done, and the hardship to settlers is particularly severe. The grass grew very rank last year, and the protracted dry spell has rnaae it powerful food foe fire.

In the Courier, one ol the numerous weekly papers of this city, appeared last week the following: "Trustee Abbott i6 the true friend ot paupers, particularly those who wear purple and fine lintn. Besides the hatch of paupers that went to Indianapolis in parlor cars on the 20th of January, one took a little trip toward the setting sun and then came back again. On the 9th of December last, Trustee Abbott issued to James Keany a ticket io go to St. Louis and RETURN and,at the late session of the commissioners the railroad company was allowed $7.20 for such transportation. Who lames Keany is we do not know, but we do know that whoever he may be he had no right to travel at the expense of the tax payers of Vigo county, on a pauper pass. Suit should be brought against Abbott to recover the money that it may be put into the treasury again where it belongs."

NEXT! Trustee Abhott requests us to publish the following explanatory card from the Rfcv. Father McEvoy. It covers the whole case:

Terre Hrute, Ind„ March 31st, '79. I do here by certify, that on the 9th day 01 December, 1878, I did apply to Mr. Abbott, trustee, for a pass to St. Louis, Mo., for Mary Kuney, who is subject to epileptic fits, and it being necessary for some person to accompany her, through my request a pass was also granted to James Kuney. The said Mary Kuney was compelled to go to St. Louis for medical treatment. To lighten the expenses, which she had to undergo at St. Louis, Mr. Abbott, relying on my word of honor, did issue said passes.

NEW STORIES ABOUT -ANIMALS.

THE SPOTTSYLVANIA DOG. From the Columbus, (Qa,)8un.' There are few observant ones who have been long in Columbus who have not noticed the large, intelligent, and splendid dogs belonging to Mews1 Charles Hey man, Henry Averett, and W. R. Brown. Their progenitor hast a history. At the battle of Spottsylvania Court House, Mahone's Division of Confederates, in which was Gen. A. R'. Wright's Brigade of Georgians, was charged by tremendous lines of Federals. The attacking party was repulsed with terrible loss. In front of the advancing columns was a large dog, who^ advaned ferociously and barking to our lines. Not a gun was pointed at him. Of all the terrible odds advancing, eleven to one, only this dog got over the Confederate breastworks, and he was captured by some members of thfe Citv Light Guard of the Second Georgia battalion. He was brought to Columbus—loved his Southern master better than life. His progeny embrace the smartest dogs in the country. The Yankee-Southern dog died here some months ago at a good old age.

tion on the table, which was agreed to. Senator Streight moved to adjourn, in the midst of great confu».ion.

Before the question was put, Governor Gray made the following fasewell remarks after which he declared the Senate adjourned sine die:

Senators—This General Assembly having decided to close its labors, its laws are now a part of the legislative history of the State, and I trust that time and experience will show that the wisdom of its acts will compare favorably with those of any former General Assembly.

It is possible that some things 'have been done which had better been left undone that you have failed to pass some measures which the public want demands. To some extent all legislation is an experiment. But few measures are pasted by unanimous assent. There is most alwa -s a divided opinion a6 to the practicability or justness of the measure pending. This necessitates an interchange of views and breeds discussion. The friends of the measure, believing the public welfare demands its passage, strive by argument to perfect its prvisions and secure for it the lequisite majority. Its opponents, believiug its enactment will be inimical to the State, btrive with equal zeal to prevent it becoming a law. And thus what was considered as time wasted in debate is but an hone»c effort to conserve the public good. This diversity of opinion and inability to see alike is one of the faults of poor human nature, and will exist as long as man is fallible. When he arrives at a state of infalibility no legislative bodies will be needed there will be neither makers nor breakers of the law. Then all mankind will walk together in one harmonious intercourse, amenable only to Him whose laws are written on the tablets of eternal lime. Then, indeed, will the millennium have comc and that ear of natural progress whose wheels turn not backward will have reached its destination, which lies in the brigtitneHS ot the latter day. The labors of this General Assembly have not been light. It has apportioned the State for representation in the General Assembly atid for representation in Congress. It has enacted upwards of a hundred other laws, among whidh are: Reducing the rate of interest on Contracts and judgment exempting to the debtor from execution property to the Amount of $600 exempting a portion of the wages of the laborer so necessary to the support of his family saving from attachment and garnishee' proceedings the laborer's wa^es in cases where the plaintiff and defendant are. non-residents Of the State to further protect the life and health of the miner in his dark And perilous employment in the mine for the better government of Utf bePevjoleniand reformatory instituntm r*dtiStng the'' fees and salaries of State and county officers, saving to the people thereby alone upwards of $100,000 annually. I trust its legislation will prove beneficial to the people and tend to further the prosperity and greatness of the State.

Senators, I thank you for your approval of the manner in which I have discarged the duties of the chair. Not in words merely formal, Lut with deep sincercity do I thank you. I have discharged its duties as I saw them and understood them, actuated by no motive other than to preserve order and decorum^and to facilitate legislation. The duties ot a presiding officer are necessarily laborious, requiring patience, strict attention and prompt decision, and if at any time the manner of my rulings has seemed harsh I assure you it was not so intended, and sincerely hope I have in no instance been so unfortunate as to unintentionally give offense. 1 cannot leave without expressing the deep obligation I am under to each of you for that deference with which you have always bowed to my rulings and for the respect and courtesy exhibited toward the chair at all times, even when political asperity and party rancor seemed to hold sway in the chamber. I thank you to a far greater extent than I can find words to express, and in parting can truly say that 1 am possessed of no feeling other than that of the kindliest nature toward each and every member and employe of this body, and shall carry with me thiough life the most pleasing recollections of our associations, and hope that without regard to political proclivities I may count each of you my personal friend.

The final adjournment of a legislative body is to me always an occasion of solemnity. Despite myself, the thought will flash upon my mind that Jhese tongues that have been so animated in debate will in a few short years be stilled forever. Yes, Senators, we will all sbon have to answer the 1 oil-call that will come from over the dark, desp, wide river to meet in that silent assembly that sits on its farther shore, where Democrat, Republican and National occupy seats side by side, free from political asperty and party hate—an assembly that never adjourns, the members of which answer the call of the roll but once. If my life shall be spared, I hope to be here in January, 1S81, fo convene this Senate, and when I shall order the call of the roll may ever Senator holding over be here in health to answer to his name.

HOUSE. Indianapolis, March 31/

Mr. Faulkner submitted the following report from the committee charged with the investigation of the Attorney-Gen-eral's office:

Resolved, That a commission of three be appointed by the Speaker of the House to continue the investigation of the office of Attorney-General during the terms of office of Jsmes C. Denny and Clarence A. Buskirk, t» ascertain what amounts of mouey have been collected by «ach, from whom collected, and what office the person from whom the collection was made held at the time, if any, and, if not, whether the moneys collected had been in the hands of such person in an official ca

pacity, apd returned after his terra ot office had expired, on account of what funds the moneys were collected by said Denny and Buskirk:what commissions were charged by them and their assistants, from what counties the collections were made out of what funds the commissions wefe retained, and out of what county the full amount collected in each during his term of office, and the amount paid over to the proper county and State treasuries, and the amount such commission shall believe said Denny and Buskirk are indebted to the State or any of the counties for moneys collected and not paid over. Further resolutions declare that,.to assist the commission in their inquiry, all county officers are required to make reports to them, on demand, of any payments of money made to the Attor-neys-General or their assistants a tabulated statement of the results of the investigation shall be made to the Governor within ten days after its completion if there is found to be due to the State any moneys by either Denny or Buskirk, suit shall be brought by an attorney appointed by the Governor, cost not to exceed $500, provided that if the commissioners and Governor shall believe that either of the parties is insolvent and the (.ureties relieved by the statute of limitations, then no suit shall be brought against such party the commission shall receive $6 per day each lor their services and,

Whereas, It has been made to appear to the satisfaction of your committee that the book found in the office of the Attorney-General is not a true and complete record of the transactions of that office during the term of AttorneyGeneral Buskirk, and that another record of such transactions was by him, kept, as required by law which was carried away by him at the close of his term, and is not now in the office where by law it is required to remain and as said book contains the records of one of the departments ot the State government, and is the property of thej Slate, therefore,

Resolved, That if Mr. Buskirk, on demand of the commission, refuses or fails to return said book to the office of the Attorney-General, the present AttorneyGeneral is hereby directed to institute such legal proceedings as he may deem proper to compel the return of tne same to said office. After considerable discussion the report was concurred in yeas, 61, nays 11.

Dr. Edwards, during great confusion in the House, offered a resolution providing for the printing of the evidence taken at the insane asylum inquiry in pamphlet form. V'

The Speaker (Mr. Humphreys in the chair) promptly put the motion, without calling the House to order, and declared it carried, although not a dozen members voted upon the piriposrtfon, or'1knew wh?t was before the House.

A few minutes later Mr. Saint made his voice heard above thfe din, and moved a reconsider"tion of the vote and thereupon Mr. Williard and a half a dozen other members were moving to table the motion to reconsider.

A call ot the House was then demanded, and while it was being taken Mr. Overmeyer called attention to the fact that the resolution had been transmitted to the Senate while the motion to reconsider was pending. He said he knew that to be the case, as he was looking at the resolution up to the moment of the motion to reconsider being made.

The Speaker (after inquiring among the clerks) said he found that the statement made by Mr. Overmyer was correct, and he would say that it was highly improper that the resolution should have been taken away while a motion to reconsider was pending.

The roll-call having been continued until all the members present answered to their names, it transpired that there was no quorum of the House upon which Mr. Overmyer remarked that there being no quorum present, the motion to reconsider would remain pending until the House was able to act upon it.

The Speaker stated that in the absence of a quorum, it was impossible to transact any further business.

Upon this announcement (it being within fifteen minutes of 12 o'clock, the call for speeches and farewells was commenced, and Mr. Briggs expressed the desire of the House for an address from Mr. Shanks. That gentleman responded, and was followed by brief and appropriate speeches by Mr. Briggs and Mr. Herod. After which the House adjourned sine die.

ALL CORRECT.

The U. S. revenue officers who have been investigating the deficiency in the revenue accounts of Messrs. Hulman & Fairbanks, have finished their examinations and the sessions are closed. The findings are all in favor of the firm, it being cleerly shown that Ihe full amount of over $57,000 was the result of unavoidable misshaps and not by any intention or error of the firm. This relieves them from paying that amount to the government.

SUBSTANTIAL FOOLING. The members of the Methodist church at Sugar Creek made an "April tool" visit to their pastor Rev. Hollingworth that was one of the right sort, and can always bear repeating with pleasure and benefit to all. concerned. They assembled at the house of a neighbor and proceeded in a body to the pastor's home and presented him with many substantial offerings in token of their friendship for him, and appreciation of his services, including many articles of iood in goodly quantities, clothing and a purse of money. A merry evening was passed by all present Such jokes are worthy of April 1st and can be heartily enjoyed. «i»

SENATE.

Washington, April 2.

Various bills were introduced, among them one by Harris, providing for a treaty with Mexico.

A resolution by Hoar, condemning as unconstitutional and revolutionary the Democratip programme of legislation, was laid on the table yeas 35, nays 20. Blaine said at a future time the Republicans would ask for a direct vote on the resolution.

Saulsbury made a report against the admission of Bell as Senator from New Hampshire, on the appointment of the Governor. It will come up for consideration to-morrow.

The Senate went into executive sea* sion.

HOUSE.

Washington, April 2.

An effort was made by the Speaker to fix a time for closing the debate on the army appropriation bill. Suggestions --t. were made to have a night session, to restrict speeches to fifteen minutes each, and to close the debate to-morrow. Ob* jection was made to all propositions, Conger stating that a number of gentlemen on both sides, who nave given v, notice of their desire to speak, also that many had prepared speeches and wonld not like to be restricted to fifteen minutes, ond also that but few members would be present at night sessions on both sides. It was decided that there was no desire to shut off the debate and the speaker gave it as his experience that unlimited debate was the shortest debate. The motion of Stephens that the vote be taken at 2 p. M. Saturday, was voted down. Finally on motion of Dunnell, Minnesota, all general debate was ordered closed at 3:40, leaving the five minutes debate still open. The House then went into the Committee of the Whole.

The debate was opened by Williams of Wisconsin, who stated that two things were aboslutely indispensible, the purity of the ballot box and peace at the polls. If it required all the power of the State and general 'government that pewer should be exereised whether it be put forth under National or under State jurisdiction. He had heard much talk about bayonet government but he knew of no government which did not rest ultimately on the bayonet,. Whoever talked about government without that final ultimate resort in casa of resistance to civil law, talked about Utopia.

An Abstract of the ^Decision of the Court.

Waihingtoit, April 2.—The report of the board of officers in the case of Fitz John Porter says new evidence, in addition to the old, has placed beyond question many important facts, berore a subject of dispute, in respect to which radically erroneous opinions were entertained by General Porter's accusers, and, doubtlesi, by the court martial that pronoun:e(l him guilty. The result has been to establish beyond reasonable doubt ail facts essential to the formation of a correct judgement upon the merits of the case concerning the charge of which Gen. Porter was found guilty, of not having moved his command on the night of August 37th, 1862, in obedience to an order from Gen. Pope. The board report that it was a manifest physical impossibility to march over that road that night that nothing would be gained by the attempt and that it would have been wiser if General Porter had delayed the attempt still longer than he did that he exercised the very ordinary discretion of a corps commander that and it was his plain dutv to so exercise it. i, »S» "r ./ DELEGATED.
