theatres as usual.
LONDON, April 12.-The grand jury
ignored the indictment against Gov.
Eyre for cruelty in suppressing the

WASHINGTON, April 12..-The Post
Office building is lighted by gas gene?
rated on tho premises. James A.
Kennedy, Treasurer and Superin?
tendent, A. H. Doubleday and L. B.
Moses, clerks, went to the basement,
to remedy some gas difficulty, and
carried a candle, when a terrific ex?
plosion ocourred; Moses will die, and
tho others are seriously, though not
fatally, hurt.
After a very long debate, tho Se?
nate adopted a resolution to adjourn
on Tuesday.
Tho President's health has greatly
improved. He attended a Cabinet
meeting to-day.
Maryland returns 7,000 majority
for the Convention.
Ba the Supremo Court, on the mo
tion to file the Mississippi bill, the
Chief Justice said the motion to file
a bill was usually granted aa a matter
of course, but suggested that if tho
bill contains matter scandalous or
unfit to como before the Court, the
Court examines it or refers it to a
master. In this caso, the Attorney
General objects to the bill as contain'
ing matter unfit to bring before the
Court. That is the only point which
can now be considered. Upon that
point, the Court will first hear tho
Attorney-General.
Mr. O'Connor announced himself
and associates in attendance, should
it be decided to argue both bills.
The Attorney-General said the
Georgia bill lacked the point on
which he proposed to oppose filing
tho Mississippi bill. The Mississippi
bill was, in a legal sense, scandalous
as it proposed making the President
tho defendant before the Court.
Gov. Sharkey said he had amended
the bill to proceed against the Presi
dent as a citizen of Tennessee.
Attornoy-General Stanberry read
portions of the bill, claiming it was
manifestly against the President as
President. Ho alluded to a process
somewhat similar issued against Mr
Jefferson, in tho Burr trial. Mr
Jefferson did not obey, nor even
notice, the process. He should ad
vise tho President to disregard tho
subpoena, and traced the result
should the Court persist and tho Pre
sident remain firm. Tho Court, to
maintain its dignity, would have to
imprison tho President for contempt
Ho maintained, equally with tho
Kings of England, that tho President
was oxempt from proceedings of this
kind. He could only bo brought be
foro the bar of the Senate after im
pcachment. The Courts could punish
for acts committed while President
hut he was beyond their jurisdiction
while occupying thc chair. Ho also
maintained that the action was
against the United States Govern
ment as much as though the'Govern
mont were named. He aunounced
that ho appeared at the request of
tho President, who, when tho bills
passed over his veto, said there was
but one dnty, in his estimation, rest
ing upon him, and that was faithfully
to carry out and execute those laws.
It. J. Walker followed, and the
Court toot the matter under advise
ment.
A largo anti-Chinese meeting was
held in San Francisco, on tho 6th
ultimo; tho object hoing to orgauizo
u Pacific anti-Coolie Association
and tho formation of clubs in ever
ward of the city pledged not to
pntronizo any mau who employed
Chinese labor. Speeches wero made
against Chincso immigration, and
Mr. Cox, from Australia, advised
the forcible expulsion of the Coolies
from the State.
Mr. Barnum's "unrivalled" collec
tion of curios.'ties is soon to receive
an interesting addition. By way
inflicting a pcrmnnent and plensin
retaliation, ho has ordered a series
wax figures illustrating "striking" i
cidents in the life of tho editor of
Herald.
FEAT m OB?TOBX.-A member o?
tbe Legislative Assemblj of Vancou?
ver's Island spoke in that House re?
cently for seventeen bonis, in order
to prevent a bill of much local interest
from passing before tho close of a
particular day, which bad been ap?
pointed as tho limit of tbe time for
making certain payments. The last
twenty-four hours of the twelve?
month aluno remained when this
gentleman, Mr. M'Cluro, began his
speech. The Examiner says: 4 'Every
effort was made by the majority to put
him down and tire bim out. With a
merciless unanimity, they refused to
allow bim to lean against the table,
to put his foot upon a chair for a
moment, to relieve himself from tho
irksomeness of his position by rest?
ing bis hand upon anything, or to
speak, in short, in any other than a
rigidly erect and unsupported atti?
tude.
4-Daring the whole of tho time,
they relieved each other at intervals,
going out aud procuring such re?
freshments as they needed, and al?
ways leaving a quorum in the House.
When McClure sank exhausted into
his scat, Mr. De Comost rose, and
for the remaining seven hours of the
twenty-four talked agninst time. On
rising; amidst the groans and hisses
of the disgusted and infuriated ma?
jority, he exclaimed, with more force
than refinement, that it was useless
for honorable members to evince
their malice in that manner, for he
had got up with tho determination to
talk, if necessary, 'until the angel
Gabriel sounded the Inst trump. ' His
powers of endurance were not quite
so severely tested; but the end was
achieved, and when the clock struck
12, the worn and wenried champion
of. honesty looked round with par?
donable exultation upon the blank
faces of a bought and beaten assem?
bly."
l?o recusant Democrat in Washing?
ton now woald dare to go on such a
"fillibustering expedition."
Two THOUSAND MINERS ONA STRIKE.
The strike of the miners in New Jer?
sey still continues nnd is increasing.
2,000 are idle or engaged with the
strikers, and all tho mines in Morris
County have suspended work. The
strikers obtain credit at the stores as
they have heretofore done, bat it is
only because tho dealers are afraid to
refuse them.
VIRGINIA TOBACCO CBOP.-The to?
bacco now on hand in the Counties
of Halifax, Pittsylvania, Franklin nnd
Henry, in Virginia, and Rockingham
and Coswell, in North Carolina, is es?
timated to bo worth $12,000,000.
The crop of Pittsylvania alone is
placed at $3,000,000. We doubt this
estimate.

A CoiiOBED PREAOHTO'S VIEWS OF
?THE SITUATION.-A friend, wbo was
present nt one of the churches where
our colored people worship, on Sun?
day afternoon, gives us the following,
among other sensible remarks, which
occurred in the sermon of the preach?
er, for many yr.-.rs a slavo in this
city:
"My brethren," said the preacher,
"it is true, your condition is changed.
You are now free mon and women,
instead of, as ia former years, slaves;
but because you are free, it does not
reliovo you from certain duties which
aro incumbent upon white and co?
lored persons. You must work, and
take care of yourselves and families,
and behave yourselves as tho white
people do, and be polite to nil per?
sons. Without this, you cannot bo
respected. * * * Do not bo de?
ceived by professions from auv ono.
When you find white men who are
willing to get down under you for tho
purpose of shoving you up above
them, as BOIUO profess to do, for the
purpose of gaining your support, I
say to you, watch all Such charac?
ters. When, however, men aro wil?
ling to reach down from the wall and
oner you their hands to pull you up,
as your former masters are willing to
do, you may trust them. I say unto
you, brethren, look out for designing
men, who profess only to betray."

JEFF. DAVIS.-Professor Thomas
Chenowith, of Baltimore, an artist
on his travels, recently visited the
fort and commenced giving instruc?
tions in painting to Mr. Davis, Miss
Howell, his sister-in-law, and others.
The Professor had many -pleasant
conversations with Mr. Davis. The
latter said that he had no complaints
to make of what appeared to no the
strict measures of the Government
to prevent his escape, and that lu
entertained towards all the offioors
of the fort none but the most kindly
and friendly feelings, os they had
ever been ready, and willing to pro?
mote his comfort. Ho said he was
nuder many obligations to the citi?
zens of Baltimore. As to his trial,
ho expressed no opinion. Ho wai
in the hands of the Governmeut,
and patiently awaited the decisior
which would either place him b'eion
the courts of justice or release him.

in the photographing of guns while
being fired. In the pictures which
were taken, the moment had been
so exactly seized, thnt tho ball could
