In the course of the next few days i
is probable that Congress Will be eu
giged in a lively debate ever the Wilsot
13.11 which has been favorably reports*
by the Seuate Judiciary Committee
T.ie object oi the Wilson B II is to Pre?
vent the importation oi'iiquor into pro
hibition States. Itrecoguizesthe powe
o: every State to prohibit, regulate
control, or tax the saie aa I transports
tiou of liquor. The measure is o
ct urse intended to meet the recen
Si'prems Court decision conceruiug tb?
.shipment and sale of original package:
of liquor in a Prohibition State. Tin
majority report in favor of tho hi;
argues that it is clearly wthin the powa
of Congress to graut permission to ;
State to exclude any article of traffi?
its citizens have declared to be danger
ouj and iujurious. A miuority concur?
rent report, sigued by Senator George
expresses the opinion that the Slates
utder the Constitution, have thepowei
sought to be conferred by tut; bill, bu
in view o: the decision of the Supreint
Court, erroneous though it appears t<
be, the States must depend upon tht
action of Cougress uutii the court shal
reverse its judgment. So the whoh
br.siness brings up an iaterestiug ques
tion of State rights. When the debatt
ccmes off the friends of ceutralizatior.
ard the believers iu State sovereign1.',
w.11 collide, while the antt-Prohibltior
members will sail in with gloves off
The Wilson bill will make music in thi
air.
The .'.nalysis of the returns on th?
revision of the 'creed iu th-^ Presby
teriau Church is not yet made: bu
or ough is known of ?tue vote to mak<
it probable that the decision will tun
u]?on the construction or a rule. Tu<
rmes require a two-thirds vote tc
carry a revision; but it is likely to hi
a vital question whether it is two
thirds of the Presbyteries voting, o
two-thirds of the Presbyteries iu tht
ccuntrv. If the former, -74 Presby
teries iu favor of revision are noces
sary; if the latter there must be 234
T.ie report on the subject, if adoptei
by the Geuerai Assembly, would refei
this question back to the "Presbyteries
to be decided by them, and the resul
declared a year heuce. At the sam<
litao the large preponderance in favoi
of revision.
STANLEY'S FAITH,
Henry M. Stanley, in his only mag a
z'ne article, which will appear iu the
Jone Scribuer's says: "Constrained a;
ths darkest hour to humbly confess
tint without God's help I w'is useless
I vowed a vow in the forest solitude;
that I would confess His aid befon
mm. Silence, as of death, was roum
about me; it was midnight; I was weak?
ened by illness, prostrated by fatigue
and wan with anxiety for my white
und black companions, whose fate was
a mystery. In this physcial and men
ta distress I besought God to give mc
buck my people. Nine hours iater we
were exulting with a raptuous joy. Ic
full view of all was the crimson lias
with the cresent, and beneath its wav?
ing folds was the long-lost rear col?
umn."
circca day in ROANOKE
Christmas, Fourth of July and
Washington's birthday nre npthiug tu
compared to circus day in Roanoke.
There are bigger crowds in the city,
m >re activity everywhere, aud it is an
?V2Dt iu the lives of many people. II
w:.s a great (iay in Roanoke. a day
loug to be remembered, and the "great?
est show on earth" had au audience
su:h as they never hadiu Virginia be?
fore. By actual count there were 7,241
persons preseut at the afternoon per?
formance.
It paralyzed bu?ine:>s; it paralyzed
everything. Nothing liko it has ever
bean seen here, it is the first appear?
ance of the illimitable P. T. Barnum
hi the c:ty. Long may he wave and
ms-.y his shadow never grow less.
Again has Mrs. Leslie denied that
sh-j contemplates a matrimonial aliiar.ee
wnh tbe Marquis de Lkuvjlle.
A- a mi.trimonial fakir, the Marquis is
rabidly reachiug the Jones, of Florida,
ph.ne.
Of what use is a Zoo in Washington
after Saturday's circus in the nouse ?
Babnum's greatest rival is tho House
of Representatives.
At last we are to have overhead
bridges. It will cost a great deal of
money, bat what is money to life.

a woman's bee hat.
For the veil, take a strip of mosquito
bar wide enough to reach, from the base
of the crown on the outside of the hat
to the arm pits, and long enough to lit
Li osely around the shoulders; with the
exception of about twelve inches, which
is of the finest black bobinet lace. Join
the ends. Turn in one edge and gather i >a
to the has.> of the crown. Face theothi .
edge with a strip of cotton cloth, fitting
the shoulders tightly; At the hack of
the ann/attach a strap which passes un?
der the arm and buttons on to the band
in front. H necessary, run into the band
a cord to tighten, as the occasion may
require. The black bobinet is less try?
ing to tin* oyes than anything else, and is
almost no obstruction to the sight. If
properly made there is no falling in on
the neck and no rubbing of the nose and
chin, yet perfect freedom of movement
to the head._
