Asa Rogers, Auditor of Virginia, from the disability bill. Nice said Welles had decided to sell Virginia's internal improvements at a sacrifice. Au? ditor Rogers was au obstacle to the job, hence the desire to retain his disabilities, which would remove bim. Trumbull said of the Grant and Colfax clubs which re? monstrated against Rogers' relief, that if the Senate is to be governed by Grant and Colfax olubs, the Senate had better dissolve. The discussion was interrupted by the regu? lar order. The House is considering tho right of the Seoretury of the luterior to restore tho Washington relics to General Lee. The Judiciary Committee of tho House has closed the evidence iu the Busteed case, and the hearing of tho argument lins com? menced. The impression is strong that tho Committee will ask to be discharged, which will end the matter. The Reconstruction Committee have agreed to report a bill re? moving political disabilities without amend? ment. There are three bills pending-the ono on which the Reconstruction Commit? tee passed as above is the one which con? tains the name of Judge Parker, of Vir? ginia, and General Moorman, of Mississippi, In the House, under the regular call, a bill was introduced granting lands to the Tennesseo and Coosa Railroad. A bill au? thorizing the Secretary of War to appoint a commission, to report at tho next session, regarding bridges over navigable streams, and until congressional action,' forbidding bridges over the Ohio River with less than 400 feet span, passed-84 to 59. Tho bill withholding bonds from the Pacific Railroad until a first class track is guaranteed, passed. A joint resolution, declaring valid certain declarations of the Texas constitutional Convention, and incorporating tho Iuter Oceanio Railroad was tabled. Logan offered a resolution of inquiry, regarding the resto? ration of George Washington's property to Gen. Lee, and forbidding its restoration, pending congressional inquiry and action passed-119 to 35. The bill avowing Mrs. Susan Shelby, of Port Gibson, iss., 85,000 for captured cotton, passed. An amend? ment paying Vinnie Ream $6,000, on ac? count, for the Lincoln statue, passed. Re? cess. The Senate adopted a bill for the relief of certain companies of guides and scouts in Alabama. After a sharp debate on re? moving political disabilities, tho Senate re? sumed the army appropriation bill, and dis? cussed it to reacss. > Brownlow, with nu escort of twenty per sous, arrived hore to-day. They say a man attempted to shoot Brownlow, at Charlottes? ville, Va., but the pistol was wrested from tho would-be assassin Grant is desirous that uu provisions will be made in tho army bill which will-pre? vent bira from nominating'Sherman", to be General; Schofield, to be Major-General; Sheridan, to bo Lieutenant-General; and 1 : i .'?.)'? ' r-Tr Roynolda aud Sickles to be Brigadier Genexal*. i The Committee of Five, from Mississippi,' representing the extreme radicals, are much discouraged with the course of events. Grant, it is stated, will not resign the Generalship. He considers bis office of General of the Army terminates with his oath of office as President. It is almost impossible to move through the Capitol, ou account of tho crowd. Every train brings recruits. Gen. Grant opposes nnseating tho Geor? gia Representatives, nod the postponement of Georgia matters by the Reconstruction Committeo is attributable to his influence. Young, member of Congress from Geor? gia, who has warm personal relations with Grant, had an interview with him last night regarding Georgia matters. General Grant said Congress could not get around recog? nizing Georgia as a State in tho Union, and that he himself was opposed to interfering with her at all. Grant's visit to Boutwell this morning grew out of this interview. Interual revenue receipts to-day, $1,225, 000. Seward announces publicly his retirement on the 3d of March. FINANCIAL.

An accideut probably without parallel oc? curred on the 4th ult. to a number of gen? tlemen whilst hunting. The York and Ainsty hounds met at Stainby House, be? tween Harrowgate and Ripon, aud a fox was found at Monkton Wyn. lt took the direction toward Copgrove, and thence to Newby. The hounds crossed the river Ure, nearly opposite Newby House, the residence of Lady Mary Vyner, aud sixteen or seven? teen gentlemen entered a largo ferry boat, with their horses, for tho purpose of con? tinuing tho pursuit. Before tho boat had got oue-third over thc stream, one of the horses began to plunge, aud something like a panic among the animals took place. The boat was swayed first to ono side and then to tho other, and finally it was capsized and turned bottom upwards. The spectators on the bank took prompt measures to rescue tho persons who were thus plunged into the swollen river. Those who could thus swim cast off their coals and plunged in to savo their friends, whilst others formed lines of I whips tied together, and thvow them within reach of the drowning men. Several beams of wood, which fortunately lay scattered about, were also quickly launched on the stream. By these means several liveH were saved, but six of thu purty were unhappily drowned: Sir Charles Slingsby, Bart., of Scriven Park; Mr. E. Lloyd, of Liugcroft, near York; Mr. Edmund Robinson, of York; W. Ovis, (first whip,) Warriner, (gardener at Newby Hall,) and his son. -o A minister in Connecticut, while preach? ing a few Sabbaths siuce, seeing several closed eyes in the house, startled his hear? ers by the bold assertion, . "There is nota truth in tho Bible," followed by a pauso long enough to awake all the sleopors in tho congregation. Then he continued, "that is not applicable to sooio condition of daily life."

Tan CHINESE VERSUS TRB NEGROES.- j According to a recent decision in one of the petty court* of California, in the case of the robbery of a Chinaman by a negro, the Chinaman in California has no rights whick a negro is bound to respect. It was decided that whereas the Chinaman, by tho laws of California, cannot testify against a white mau, and whereas by the Civil Bights Bill of Congress a negro has the same civil rights ns a white man, there? fore Jehu Chinaman against Sambo had no case, because he could make no charge. Wo call thu attention of the Hon. Charles Sumner to this matter. Let him look into it, or never say human rights again. [New York Herald. MARRIAGE IN Utan (RADICAL) LIFF..-Tho recent marriage of Peter Harper, n whit? radical member of tho Louisiana Legisla? ture, was a grand affair. The bride was Eliza Jane Brooks, a negro woman, born on a Baton Rouge plantation, and lately de? serted by a husband of her own color. The ceremony was performed by the Rev. Mr. Turner, a colored preacher, who baa been acting as chaplain of the Senate. Tho Hon. Isabelle, a dandy-looking man, wns ono of the groomsmen, nod one of the quadroon) daughters of the landlady of the Rev. Carpet-Bag Conway was bridesmaid. Hon. P. B. S. Pinchbeck gave the bride away. -f> The NiiRhvillo Union says: "There re? sides on Hardin Pike, twelve miles from the city, Mrs. Dinah Vies, a widow iady, who is now verging on ber 114th year. She is vigorous and healthy, and is, though almost incredible to relate, still able to ride horseback aud attend to ber personal wants. She has been married three times, bas over 400 descendent? living, and has been a widow for twenty-three yeurs. She has one great-great-great-grand daughter three years of age. Then she has a (laughter named Mrs. Sawyers, who is in her ninetieth year. Each one of her husbands served in the re? volutionary war, for which abo draws pen? sions." A young married lady from Springfield, 111., culled at the police headquarters in Now Orleaus, last week, to get some clue to her husband, who had been missing some months. He always mude a Southern tour in winter, she said, anti made a great deal of money, keeping her well supplied. Ho bad been gone so long this time, however, that she was anxious. It turned out that he was a professional thief, and is now in prison. The poor woman's horror and an? guish may be imagined.

OFTIIKSCIIIKUAM AQOUATIG SCHNAPPS '22 BEAVER STIIKKT, NEW YOUK, NOV. 3, '63. Tu the 1'eopie vf thc Southern Slates. When tho puro medicinal restorative, now so widely known as WohVs SCHIEDAM SCHNAPPS, waa introduced into tho world, under thu endorse? ment ol 1,000 loading members of the medical pro? fession, some twenty years ago, its proprietor was well avaro that it could not wholly escape tho penalty attached to new and usct'nl preparations. He, therefore, endeavored to invest it with the strongest possible safeguard against counterfeit? ers, and to render all attempts tn pirate it difficult and danserons, tb-was submitted to distinguish? ed chemists for analysis, and pronounced hy them tho purest spirit ever manufactured. Its purity and properties having been (hus ascertained, samples of tho article woro forwarded to 10,000 physcians, including all thc loading practitioners in tho United States, for purposes of experiment. A circular, requesting a trial of tho preparation and a report of tho result, accompanied each specimen. 4,000 of tho must eminent medical men in tho Union promptly responded. Their opinions of tho article woro unanimously favorable. Such a preparation, they said, had long been wanted by tho profession, as no reliance could bo placed on tho ordinary liquors of commerce; all of which woro more or less adulterated, and, therefore, unlit for medical purposes. Thc peculiar excel? lence and strength of the oil of juniper, which formed ono of tho principal ingredients (,f tho Schnapps, together with an unalloyed character of thu alcoholic clement, give it, in thc estimation of thc faculty, a marked superiority over every (?thor dilTusivo stimulant as a diuretic, tonic and restorative. Thcso satisfactory credentials from professional mon of tho highest rank wore published in a condcuned form, ami enclosed with each bottle of the. Schnapps, as one ot thc guarantees of its genuineness. Other precautions against fraud were also adopted; a patent was obtained for tho article, tim label was copyrighted, ?fae simile of thc proprietor's autograph signature was attached to each label and cover. Iiis ?amo and that of tho preparation were embossed on thu bottles, and the corks Woro sealed with his private seal. No art ide I had ever boen sold in this country nuder the name of Schnapps prior to tho introduction of Wolfo's Schiedam Aromatic Schnapps, in 1851; and tho label was deposited, as his trade mark, in tho United States District Court for thu .Southern Dis? trict of New York during that year. It nullit no supposed, ny persons unacquainted with tho daring character of tho pirates who prey Upon tho reputation of honorable mei chants, by vouding deleterious trash under their name, that tho protections so carefully thrown around theso Schnapps would havo precluded tho introductions and salo of counterfeits. They seem, howover, only to have stimulated tho rapacity of impostors. Tho trade mark of tho proprietor bas boon stolon: tho endorsement which Iiis Selie.lain Aromatic Schnapps alono received from tho medical pro? fession lias boan claimed by mondaci.ius humbugs; his labels an bottles havo huon imitated, his ad? vertisements paraphrased, his circulais copied, and, worse than ail.'dishonorahle retailors, after disposing of the genuino contonts of his bottles, havo tilled them up with common gin, tho most d?biterions of all liquors, and thus made his ramo and brand a cover for poison. , > The public, the medical profession and the sick, for whom tho Schiedam Aromatio Schnapps is '?prescribed as A re m ed y, aro e q n al 1 j- interested with the proprietor JD tho deteotion.and suppression of these nefarious practices. Tho genuino article, manufactured at the establishment of the under? signed, in Schiedam, Uolland, is distilled from a barley of the finest quality, and flavored with an essential extract of the berry of the Italian juniper, of unequalled purity. By a process un? known in the preparation of any other liquor, it it freed from every acrimonious and corrosive ele? ment. Complaints havo been received from thc leading physicians and families in the Southern States, nf the salo of chonp imitations of tho Schiedam Aromatic Schnapps in those markets; and travel? ers, who aro in the habit of using it aa an antidote to tho baneful influence of unwholesome river water, testify that cheap gin, put np in Schiedam hottles, ia frequently palmed off Upon the unwary. The agents of the undersigned havo been requested to institute Inquirios on the subject, aud to for? ward to him the names of such parties as they may ascertain to be engaged iii thc atrocious system of deception. In conclusion, the under? signed would HIV that he has produced, from under tho hands of tho uio.it distinguished men of science in America, proofs unanswerable ot tho purity and medicinal excellence of tho Schiedam Aromatic Schnapps; that he has expended many thousand dollars in .surrounding it with guarantees and safeguards, which lie designed should protect tho public and himself against fraudulent imita? tions; that ho has shown it to ho thc only liquen- in tho world that can bo uniformly depended upon as unadulterated; that he has challenged investi? gation, analysis, comparison, and experiment in all its forms; and ironi every ordeal the prepa? ration which bears his name, seal and trade marl;, has como off triumphant. He, therefore, feels it a duty he owes to his fellow-citizens generally, to tho medical profession and tho Bick, to denounce and expuso tho Charlatans who counterfeit these evidences of identity, and bc calls upon the prCHS and the public to aid bim in his efforts to remedy so great sn evil. Tho following letters and certiticates. from tho leading physicians and chemists of this city, will provo to tho reader that all goods sold by the undersigned aro all they arc represented to bo. UDOLPHO WOLFE. I reel bound to bay, that I regard your Schnapp? as being, in every respect, pre-eminently pure, and deserving of medical patronage.
