Washington, March C Senate.
?.Ir. Wallace moved that the credentials of
Mr, Lamar be taken from the table and he
be sworn aa senator from Mississippi.
Mr.'Anthony moved that the senate ad
journ rejected, 38 to 15.
Mr. Blaine said Mr. Lamar's creden
tials were entirely regular and he was as
much entitled to be sworn as himself or
any other senator sworn yesterday.
A long debate eusued and Mr. Spencer
wanted lioutwell's committee's report last
session on Mississippi affairs read, but
the senate refused.
Mr.Klaine argued that the report rnitrht
show that the legislature which elected Mr,
Lamar was illegal, but that was a matter
tor subsequent inriui'y. It was a danger
ous thing to stop a senator from taking the
oath who bore the proper credentials.
Mr. lhurman said there was nothing in
Mr. Boutwell's rep irt affecting Mr. La
mar's prima facie ritht to a sat, rmt one
word in the report which touched this
question, and it was out ot order tor the
senate to listen to the reading of the re
port.
Mr, Morton begged to remind the senate
that one year ago Mr. Thurman stood on
the other side of this prirtvi facie business
in the case of L inchback. According to
Mr. Thurman there could be no iuvestiga
tion as to the legislature which elected Mr,
Lamar, but there could be as to which
elected Pinchback. He (Morton)
held the same doctiine now as be
did in the Pinchback case.
hut there had been a sudden revolution on
the part of the Democrats; he believed
the senators objected to should be called
in tne regular oruer in wmcn tney are j
named. Kellogg was bore with a legal
ertificate. but objection was made to
swearing nun in yesterday on tne veiy
around upon which he was stopped from (
taking his seat to day. Mr. bpencer
had a risht to interpose objection to the
case of Mr. Lamar. It seemed to him,
Morton, that this was an attempt to have
one doctrine in one case ana anotner
doi-trine in another case.
'1 he motion to refer the credentials of
hen it r Lamar to the committee on priv
ileges and elections was rejected yeas 1,
navs f8.
Mr. Davis advocited receiving Mr.
Lamar.
Mr. Spencer opposed, because the legis
lature electing him was a fraud he had
read as part ol his remarks a part of Bout-
weil's report.
Mr. llamlim, from the committee to
notify the president that the senate was
organized, reported tint the presiacnt
would communicate to-morrow regarding
executive business.

Marshal Weils was next sworn and tes
tified as to having heard of the affair on

that night but advised the man who
brought word to go and get Dr. Piper to

arrested the Grahams: did not tell them

I he examination of this witness elicited
nothing new, and at its close the court ad

1 esterday at 1.30 p. m., the case was
resumed. H. T. McNeal. Eso . of Counellv
& McNeal, Rock Island, appearing as
associate counsel with W. J. Eutrikiu, for
defense.
A number cf witnesses were examined
for the prosecution and some new points
brought out. The most important witness
was John Allison, who said that he beard

fellow h 1 when 1 struck him;" and then
afterwards David Graham said, "Why, I
lidn't see you strike anyone, John."

nd an effort made to have him contradict
his testimony, but without avail.
Alfred Shaw, James bchottfeldt, H,
Margrat, and David Hal'er testified to
having seen the three men together on the
night in question.
John Graham was then recalled ami
cross-examined by Attorney Jackson, and
luring the same a spirited cr.iss fire was
kept up by the opposing counsel.
At one, 11. 1. McNeal, of counsel for
etense, took Jackson severely to task for

or had heard of somebody else who had

Anderson is still very low and his death
would not bo a surprise at anv time, lie
eats little, is very weak and suffers intense

of such cases bv casting aside the cruel
torture of the blisters, setons, cauteries
red-hot irons, bleeding, salivation, and
heroic medication, and inaugurate a more
rational, humane, aud certain method ot

I'he twenty years, with nearly a million
of dollars, have been expended in invent

md founding institutions lor their cure.
Over 40.000 greatful hearts rejoice to-
ay in the cures made ny tne National
Surg cal institute, with its four great di
visions at Philadelphia, Indianapolis. At-
inta. and San Francisco, Surgeon-gen-
erais vd other nations, and the toreicn
c.onimis-ions at the centennial. paid it hom
age, and gave it the most eulogistic cercti.
cates aud commendations.
It exhibited there five times as many
instruments and appliances for the cure, of
diseased joints and deformities of the hu
man body, as the United States and all
the other nations combined. and,of course,
received the highest premium, diploma,
aud medal.
All its methods of cure are rational,
cientiuc. ana iree irom tne old torturing
and usages and failures of tiie past. Those
who have never visited the institution can
form no conception of the great advan
tages it possesses over all others who ma?
propose to attempt a cure without these
facilities. To relieve ran nni disease
eive motion to stiff joints, correct deform
ities of all kinds, restore paralyzed limbs
and cure piles and fistula. diseases peculiar
to women, and also diseases peculiar to
men, is its mission.
we have learned that on account ot the
hard times preventing so many sufferers
visiting the National Surgical institute for
relief, two or more of the surgeons have
coustnted to visit our city, and will be at
the Harper IloUse. Ilock Island. Ills.,
March 14 and loth, 1877, where we would
advise all neeeding their attention to be
sure to call and see them. They will have
with theui a large stock of machinery, ap
pliances, supporters, apparatus, and rem
edies for treating the afflicted-
fee ior examniJtion. and all who can
not be nenentted will be trantly tola so.
while those cured will be charged moder
