The Senate committee uu foreign relatious, to which was referred tin Morgau resolution, concerning the roimtnu tiouof bhipcanals across the IhIIhiium of Durieu, reported an un dcrliauded thrust at the Dclesscps uudertaking. No donbt is ex pressed as to the riubt of the United States to have I Ik first voice in the control of sut-li can ils. The report does not even admit that an international conference would have any right to settle this question, as the rights of this country are too well understood to admit of compromise. The re port continues: "We simply ask nations who may, directly 'or Indirectly, send their subjects, citizens or capital to the isthmus, that they obtain the con- xent ot the Lulled Mates as the power Hiost directly interested, and that the rules and regulations for the government of thisinter-oceanic highway be made acceptable to the United States, whose interests iu peace and iu war they wi'l so mate rially allect. Another reason for the passage of this-resolution is that compauies have been, aud others may be, formed for the construction of projected routes, which it is well known can never be successfully operated under their present plans, aud iu which the money subscribed will be totally lost. Yet many of the subscribers have undoubtedly been led to believe the United States government approved, mdi rcctly if not directly, the scheme n which they have invested. This should not be. No one at homo or abroad should bo beguiled into an investment of accumulated property or of part of their earnings bv belief that the government of the United States approved the project."

Senator Couk liug raised his arm, placed his baud around the man's waist and lilted it to the lofty shoulder, aud whilst he drew the colossal figure towards him, looked up into his face and said : 'You would not ask me to do that.' No quiver of disappointment was visible, the two politicians had met. Sizo bad nothing to do with it. Matter went down before mind, and the Darwin ian theory was vindicated. A i.apiks' society has lately beeu orgaui.cd iu Philadelphia, lor en couraging the production of silk iu this co u u try, as a means of employ ment for woiueu. The culture of the silk worm iu the United States can certaiuly be engaged iu with profit. This fact has beeu demonstrated, but, unfortunately, a wild speculative silk-prodiiciug mania, existing fifty years ago.was followed by a collapse, and this put an cud to silk culturo iu the United States. Silk was produced in the Americau colonies at ! lu early day, for it is told that Oueeu Caroline, the wife of Gnorgo III., wore on her coronation day a silk robe made aud fiuished in an American .colony. The new movemcut begins with no extra vat gaut expectations or purposes, aud it deserves the sympathies of all who desire to see their country in dependent of foreign supplies ot the. great staples of use aud manufac ture. It is already known that the silk worm thrives well iu lex as, and many portions of the state are most admirably adapted to the growth of the silk-producing mulberry. ( A system of prize target practice is to be adopted in the army. There will be three grades ot competition and prizes department, division and army. A representative of each company, troop or battery will first couteud tor the honor of a place in the department team of twelve These, teams; when selected, will subsequently compete, for places in a division team ot twelve and for prizes, the first being a good medal of the value tf $100. Finally, every alternate year, the general of the army will select from the reports of ritle practice in the entire army & team of twelve ot the' best shots to compete for the army . prizes. The first prize will be a gold, medal, value $200; the three next marksmen's rifles, and the remaiuing eight silver medals.' A challenge trophy, worth $500, Is also to be offered as a prize to the company, troup or battery making the best average shooting during any month in the year. 'This trophy' is what is known as the Ne vada badge., , , . n. r " i i Judob Robertson refused to be controlled by the Grant instructions of the New York convention, and did all in his power .to iuduce other delegates to break pledges they had made at home. This very commen datory feature in his moral make-up must have beeu the incentive for Garfield's earnest adherence to him. Conkling, lu his letter of resigna tion, Says Robertson organized the bolt, 'and that "he invited, persua- induced other whom, he knew bad given their word, and had ob tained their seats by doing so, to violate their word, aud betray not o'uly the Republicans assembled, in tholntc convention, but the Repub- li aus of their districts as well who had trusted iutheir honor " There is a bitterness In this fight thai has no end, and it will be pursued by the Grant and 'Conkling faction td a point where Garfield would beg Tor mercy, if he dared anticipate quarter..-.

It begins to appear that they are going to strike too many ' persona in high places, and that the President may lose some senatorial support if he push the thing further.- Mr. Gar field is at a point where it will not do to drive any more Republicans from luru, and if any Democrats be affect ed by these investigations, be may thus be robbed of a balance of pow er. ' Besides all this, it is said in the circle friendly to what is called the star route ring, that Gen. Garfield, while a member of the House, wrote to Hayes a letter defending Brady from the charges made against him, and urging the President not to be influenced by them. The letter, it is said, is now on file. A further rea son for the discontinuance of the investigation is alleged to ex ist in the fact that Secretaries Blaine and Window were both mem bers of the Senate committee on appropriations at the time the star route subject was discussed before Congress, and both favored the in creased appropriations asked for by Brady. If these things be so it may be accepted as a fact, that this Gar- field-Conkling breach was decided upon as a subterfuge, through which might escape the popular excite meut concerning those star route frauds. Postmaster-General James, as a Republican, has been too previ ous, and it he now be interferred with, and he really be an honest man, Mr. Garfield may have to look around for a new cabinet officer. And now Gen. Grant has come boldly to the front in aid of .Roscoe Conkling. Iu a letter from the City of Mexico, written while the deadlock was iu force, he says: 'When the first batch of nomina lions for New York was sent in I was delighted; I believed then that the President had determined to recosr uizethc Republican party and not a faction, ltut his nominations of the next day convinced me that the first act was but a part of a deep laid scheme for somebody to punish promincut leaders for being openly frieudly to me. I cannot believe that Gen. Gar- held is the author of this policy. give him credit lor beiugtoo big a mauto descend to such means lor the punishment of men who gave him a hearty support in bis election, and who arc disposed to give him the same support now. for the of- feusc of having had a former prefer ence lor some one else tor the othce which he now holds. But Garfield is now President, and is responsible for all the acts of the administration. Conkling aud Piatt are the chosen senators from the great state of New York, aud that, too, against all oppo sition of au admiuislration created bv the same partv that elected them. This should give them all the stronger claim to be consulted in the matter ot appointments in their state, w hen it comes to filling the most influential office in their state without consulting those senators, it is a great slight. When he selects the most ofl'eusive man to be found, it becomes au insult, and ought to be resented to the bitter end. I sincerely hope the President will see this and correct his mistake himself and restore harmony to the party, lie owes this to himself and to those, without whom he could uot have beeu elected. Nobody be lieves that he could have carried the state of New York without the ac tive support of her present senators; their passive support would not have answered. Without the state of New York, Gen. Garfield would not now be President." Hon. Fred. A. Conkling, of Cin cinnati, brother to Lord Roscoe, says: "The senator is in earnest. He did not make up his mind suddenly. He has been arriving at this determina tion for the past ten days. My brother is disgusted with politics, and has been lor a long time, lie has often told me how sick he was of the whole business, and how he wanted to get out of it. He finds he can't' trust politicians. If not re turned he will practice law. He can make $100,000 a year. He is the best liviuj '.awver a better lawyer than Webster. But if be goes out ot of fice he will not go out of politics. He will become a strong man for the presidential candidate in 1884. I am tr'.ad to see him defeated. It is time the Republican party was dis solved. The American, railroad system is being rapidly adopted in Europe. Two ot the English leading lines have adopted the American system of "checking" baggage, and travelers find it the greatest improvement on the clumsy system, formerly in vogue, of "booking" a trunk. The railroad lines running through Italy, as well as several British lines, have simultaneous introduced the Pullman sleeping cars.and excursion' ists can now secure a little rest at night, instead of being compelled to sit bolt upright the whole night through. , ' " ' .

Sixteen millions of dollars were at once placed at his disposal. ' The New Y'ork Social Science As sociation will throw additional light upon the philosophy of baby raising. It is proposed to collect a vast deal of information from moth ers as to the habits, castoms and ideas of babies, and to formulate thereon a philosophy which may add very largely to the interest felt u baby production. : . m Society intercourse in New York is charming.

A motion has been made in the Pennsylvania legislature, asking Cameron and Mitchell to adopt the same course pursued by the senators from New York. Theleeling against the President in many Republican quarters is very bitter, and it can not be allayed even with time. ., It is expected now that the Re ad- jus tar party will fall to pieces, lack ing the cohesive power of public plunder on which Mahone relied. If so, what will become of that pre cocions Texas infant? The Cuniberiaud- Presbyterians are exorcised over the question: whether they shall retaiu their signi fication of seventy j ears,or call them selves American Presbyterians. What good object ion can be made to the name, denoting their place of origin, cannot be discovered. They have grown and prospered as "Cum berland Presbyterians, and the ob jection urged, that there is some thing insignificant about the name, is signilicaut more of a false pride than of the Christian purposes of a great theology, born and reared from free thought under the shadow of the Cumberland Mountains. If the good members of this church do really intend to abjure their time honored name, that they may be knowu by a broader signification, let them be called the Free Presby terians of Amerioa. ' The silver conference has gotten far enough in its work to conclude to do nothing, at least for a time, and the delegates are going by reso lution, to consult . the governments they represent. England, will not abandon her exclusive gold stand ard, and Germany is in such a posi tion of dependence upon England in matters of international, trade, that it would be decidedly inconvenient uot to follow her lead. The Scandi navian states follow Germany, leav ing the ' United States and Latin Union to bear the brunt of mi-me-talic resumption, if they choose to try it. The advocates of bi-metal-isiu have been met with the taunt that thev came to do a stroke of business for themselves by getting their sijver iuto a more general cur rency. SknatokMaxey was chairman of the Postoftice Committee of the Sen ate. He is presumed to have had as much to do with designating the star routes as any man in the. coun try. : It was his duly to report on iheui to the Senate. If favorable, his recommendations were usually accepted without a question, if un favorable, his' recommendations would also have been accepted with out a question. It was his duty to know everything in connection with these star routes, and it is but na tural to presume that he did know all. Houston Post. , . . Senator Maxey may have been all these things, and still may have been uuable to discover anything wrong. It may be a constitutional weakness, for some of his friends do really assert that be is so pure that he cannot discover impurity in any body else. That must be the whole thing iu a nutshell. A scheme is on foot to have the statue of Andrew Jackson, in front of the White House, removed. The excuse for the proposed removal is that the work is wretchedly done, but it is said this tribute of res pect shown to a great and pure Democratic leader is very distaste ful to those in authority. Like the monument to Louis Napoleon in the Place Vcndome, it might be hewn down and removed, but it would be returned, as it was, by those who love country aud its history aud tra ditions as these revolutionists of the Republican party dispisethe simple and pure government of Washing ton and Jefferson aud Jackson. Senator Conkling, it is said will enter into the practice of law in New York City .quitting politics disgusted with the baseness of men entrusted with the highest places. It ia further said that he will advise his friends in New Y'ork to elect Gen. Grant his successor in the United States Sen ate. . Another rumor is that his Re publican friends will have the aid of Democrats in re-electing him as an independent, which means . lack of subserviency iu the Republican par ty to the ' image of Baal, which has been . set up at Washington ,i for Americans to worship, i" . .i m. m m. ii. .'. . i ' The Fort Worth ,Detnocrat thus sums up the good work pf the Sev enteenth Legislature: , , "It reduced state and . occupa tion taxes one-fifth. It improved he judiciary system.' It provided for the reduction of the state debt by a million a year. , It passed the "insanity dodge" law. it provided for the establishment of a state uni versity. It provided for the better payment of jurors and attached wit nesses. It reduced the expenses of all the departments. It made pro visions' for the sale of school lands. It made other changes' 'in the law, and did not pass a single unwise or yicious law that the citizen can justly complain of." ,,,.,.. i ,., ' People" no doubt " sometimes wonder' why the appointment of a collector of customs of New York should cause -such ' a' commotion. The- matter becomes plain -enough when it is stated that the office pays the incumbent about $17,000 a year, and carries with it 953 ' ap pointments to subordinate positrons, worth in the aggregate $1,400,000 a year. In addition to this, it is gen erally understood that the collector has poWer whenever 'he choOses to exercise it, to exert a decisive influ ence on nominations in the state.

" - TEXAS PRESS VIEWS. j "Uncle Dan McGary," as he is called, never misses an opportunity to throw a brick, and here is his last one: "We have always heard there was honor among thieves. Butsiuce the Galveston Setr has got New comb's Evening Light to praise the Houston Post, we begin to lose faith in human nature. It ii an attempt to injure the Post in a clandestine manner.- . T - The sense of .propriety and good tate of the Bryan Pilot leads it to remark: "We think many of the sheriffs of Texas exhibited extreme ly bad taste in wearing six-shooters on the occasion of their state con vention at Houston. Even the fact that the press gang of the state were there en masse at the same time, did not furnish a justification for such a wholesale' display of deadly weap ons. We are glad to know that the sheriff of Brazos count y left his six shooter at home." The Dallas Times, the professed organ of the red-headed Democracy of the state, gives its definition of an "independent:" "A bushwhack ing independent was made after the Lord had fiuished work on the bal ance of creation. There were pieces of snake, possum, hyena and nigger left, and God swept'the remnants to gether, dampened the mass with the tetid liquor of the pole-cat, made the devil do the moulding with a pair of tongs, and set. the thing out in the sun to dry. The result was an independent." The railroads of Texas t under stand, to use an expression of the day, how to "get in their work." This good word for the roads comes from tbe Mexia Ledger : "Some of our Texas contemporaries are never happy unless they are complaining at our railways for some alleged wrong or other.' "Will they now give these roads credit lor their great liberali ty towards tne press in transport ing the editors to aud from the meeting at Houston? - The railways ot Texas are the most liberal towards public men and public enterprises of auv we kcow." The Brcnham Banner endorses the suggestion made by thellillsboro Mirror, which is a good one, ol send mg a number ot the Texas papers abroad: "The Hillsboro3vwsug. gests that Captain Lang and the Southwestern Immigration Compa ny, subscribe for and send abroad a number ot the representative papers of Texas. The idea abroad is, that Texas is a wild uncivilized country. Her newspapers are fully as good as those of any other state and their circulation would undoubtedly do much to show that the people are not i . . . 1 1 . . i i i ouiy luiciugeui out wme awa&e. Corsicana is an enterprising city, and its exceeding prosperity is the subject of general remark by the state press. The Observer-Index feels good over the situation, and says: "Many of our cotemporaries iu neighboring towns are spurring the denizens of their respective localities to greater enterprise cen. suring their want of liberality and public spirit complaining of the times, etc. We find no cause for such accusations against the wide awake, progressive citizens of Cor sicana. It needs the efficient services of a good reporter to record the new blocks in progress of construction, to keep track of the improvements being made. The times arc unusual ly lively for this season of the vear. and there are no grouuds for com- plaiut in any quarter. The Castroyille Quill takes a very sensible view of the situation. It says: "Let the politicians fight to the bitter death at Washington ; let the 'star' route and other swindles bring desolation to heretofore proud and honorable names; let the whole country scramble for ofhees, carry on the war of party hate Texas is all right. We are building: railroads aud working ; we are letting politics severely alone, and we know no political fighting aud wrangling and ostracism when it comes to working with a common purpose for our common good." The Houston Age, -which Is so ad dicted to the habit of poking fun at Galveston, savs: "It is said that for summer resorts this season the tea dency will be to go. to quiet, retired E laces ualvestou beach will proba ly be popular." And the Dallas Times, too, joins the Age'la its fun at' the expense of the city of "natural advantages," as witness: '"Great 'numbers of dead fish line the shore of Galveston liar bor. Their death is attributed to starvation. Thev endeavor to cross the bar, are stranded aud perish troui hunger." 1 he W aco Examiner illustrates its city in the following advice to Eli Perkins : Eli Perkins does uot seem to draw well at Galveston. As Eli is coming here, to assure his suc cess, we make the following sugges tious: lie should either associate himself with a few attractive blondes or get himself up in tights and a breech-clou tr and go it alone. The advice is well meant, and if Eli will only louow it, we win gamble on his weak jokes exciting the risibles ot the most melancholy man in town." The Cleburne Chronicle gives the Galveston Jfews a lesson in gram mar:' " Politics are cerlainlv a verv risky business,' is the way thrt Gal veston jeius begins an editorial on 'Political Uncertainties.' The Chron tele is a backwoods paper and has no city styie, dui sunburn us it we ever deal out to our intelligent read era and patrons such grammar as 'politics are. But we say this iu great meekness, and if the News is ri&ht, we will endeavor to learn of it as we always have heretofore." Referring to the report that the Bonhaui News had been sold to another party, ils editor says : "The facts are that the Bonham News is not for sale. . Money enough would buy. it, of course; but the writer hereof, Providence permitting, ex pects and intends "to live and die editor of ' the Bounam Netvs. The lot .wherein l to lay his mortal 1 re mains is already selected and. pur chased in Willow Wild Cemetery ; hot, until that lot is occupied, we have no idea there will be any change in the editorship or : proprietorship Of the New?-, ,,. , , ; ,. ,;j ,, ; t The Canton Chronicle does not agree with those who have been de nouncing the drummers tax, and lets fly in the following plain words: " The idea of the legislature levying a tax of fifty' dollars on each and revery drummer seems to- be a pre posterous thing in the -eyes of the wealthy wholesale dealers of Texas aud their friends. They call it un just, unequal, oppressive,' and all such things, but when it is1 made a criminal offense for a laboring man to refuse or to fail to render such service as his ewerseer may order him to perform for ten days in each year, on the public road, it is looked on. as a small matter, while the pro perty of the country is not, taxed tor the purpose of keeping up these valuable public thoroughfares." ' , Soke of the papers still harp upon the tax money that is to be nsed in building a new Capitol. After a while all will find out that the payment is to be made in lands that could not be sold otherwise in the next fifty years. ' ' . TEXAS FACTS AND FANCIES.' - Fairfield is to have a brass band.

He pays more to the church fund than any -one else. Be careful what you say and don't abuse the liquor business." The minister said he'd try and not be too rough on them, and start ed up, when a deacon jerked him back and remarked: ' "You see that man coming in with the red face ? Well, that's (ten. Swiggwell. He drinks pretty hard, but pays more pew rent , than -any man in tywn. The church couldn't get along without him. Now, don't come down heavy on drunkards." "I'll try to hit him lightly.

TUB KE8III.T OF PBorELLINU A TOUNII WOMAN FROM A CATAPULT IN A t'lKl Elizabeth Powers.kuown to circus goers as Elizabeth Davene, died in the New York hospital, New York, early yesterday morning. She was twenty-one years old. On the after noon of Tuesday, May 3d, in Wilkes barre, Pa., in the course of a per formance in Bar nu m's circus, she was shot from a catapult. She turned in the air as she had been ac customed to do in this feat, but for some reason she fell upon the netting in such a way as to wrench her neck. She straightened out upon the netting and asked in a low voice for assistance, saying: "I cannot move either hand or foot" She was assisted to her dressing room, and though a physician dis covered that she was paralyzed in ail her limbs, it was expected that she would recover. She was conveyed to No. 72 East Fourth street, in New York city, where she had formerly beardedy and thence two days after the accident to tho New York hos pital, where she died. The spine was not fractured, but it was sup posed , by the physicians that a pressure was exerted upon the spinal marrow. The effect of this would be to cause paralysis of the limbs. Subsequently rheumatism set in. Miss Power was one of the French Davene troupe of gymnasts, con sisting of Mr. Davene, his wife, bis daughter, and ' herself. She was Mrs. Uavene's sister. They were organized originally, it is said, in London, but thev have visited near ly, every part of tbe world. Miss Power is spoken of in very higrh praise by the members of Barnum's circus. She will be buried iu Green" wood to-day.
