The Georgia bill, as it passed tho So?
nate, is, substantially, BB.follows: Geor
gia shall be known as tho Third Military
District. Tho present Governor is pro?
visional. A new' Legislature shall be
elected next fall, upon the organization
of which; Georgia may be admitted to
representation in Congress. Tho Presi?
dent is authorized to suppress disorder,
holding municipalities responsible for
loss to persons py property. The bill
forbidding tho organization of the Geor?
gia militia is repealed, and now goes to
tho House. The Democrats were silent
on tho final vote. Tho nays were, Bore
man, Chandler, Drake, Fenton, Flana?
gan, Fowler, Hamilton, of Texas, Har?
ris, Howard, Howell, McDonald, Mor?
ton, Nye, Osborne, Ramsey, Revels, Rice,
Spencer, Stewart, Su muer, Thayer,
Trumbull, Williams, Wilsou and Yates
25. The voto shows a square defeat of
the extremists, and, iu consequence, n
defeat of Gov. Bullock, whose object is
said to havo been to continue the present
pliant Legislatura in office during his
term. Au amendment, ordering an elec?
tion next fall, for all elective officer? of
the State, was withdrawn before reach?
ing a vote. The bill passed at half-past
2 this morning.
Tho Ohio Legislature is at the White
House. .
In the House, Sypher was scated, by a
vote of 78 to 73. Farnsworth, who had
voted no, said he had not cxamiucd tho
report, but would follow tho report of
the Committee. He voted nyc. Tv,o
other doubtful men then voted aye, amid
a storm of protests from tho Democratic
side. Blaine aharply reproved Farns?
worth for unparliamentary action, in
making remarles while announcing his
vote. Tho ayea and nays were progress?
ing on a motion to reconsider the vote
seating Sypher. Thero is a baro possi?
bility of a reversal. A motiou to table
the motion to reconsider, was lost-79 to
83. A motion to reconsider is now pro?
gressing, which, if carried, will bring
another vote on the direct question. The
probabilities, at this mouiout, aro rather
against Sypher. The voto to reconsider
was ourried-85 to 79. Tho reporters'
gallery now consider Sypher's chance
very feeble.
Tho House, by 95 to GS, voted that
thero had been no valid election in tho
first Louiaiana District. Thia voto was
reconsidered, and a motion to reconsider
was tabled, which finally disposed of thc
claim of General Sypher to a seat in thc
House. The Georgia bill, as amended
by tho Senate, was referred to tho Bc
construction Committee, with Beveral
substitutes. Pending tho resolution to
inform Warmouth of tho vacancy iu thc
first Louisiana District, the House ad?
journed.
In the Senate, Gilbort introduced a
bill for .steam mail service between Flo?
rida and Cuba, lianes introduced a bill
for the better organization of tho Dis?
trict Court of Louisinua. It involves
tho division of the State in two judicial
districts. Adjourned.
Tho Supremo Court adjourns on Satur?
day, April 30ih. No arguments will be
heard until the26th.
Internal revenue receipts today
$238,000.
The Howard Corruption Investigating
Committco heard evidenco regarding tho
negotiation of tho Congregational
Church. It appears that tho Howard
University was first intended for a
school, uuder the auspices of the Con?
gregational Church, but Howard fur?
nished necessary funds to build it, and
raise it to a University under tho aus?
pices of tho Freedmen's Bureau.
It is slated that seven Senators have
changed front on tho San Domingo

THE PRESS RESOLUTIONS.-Wo have
endorsed, says the Chesterfield Democrat,
these resolutions ns a declaration of prin?
ciples upon which the notion of our peo?
plo should be based under tho existing
state of affairs. Perhaps it is as well to
say that instead of "accepting the situa?
tion" we simply recognize it and yield to
it. We do not desire to bo understood
as endorsing tho measures by which "tho
situation" was brought about, nor con?
senting io its perpetuation, if by any
means it can be avoided. But wo do
mean to bo understood as advocating
strict justice to every oue, a fair aud
faithful administration of whatever laws
wo have, an honest and economical go?
vernment, and a decent respect for the
rights of every mau subject to it. Upon
this platform, we cannot see how any oue
can refuse to stand, who really desires to
remove the evils of tho present rule, and
promoto the welfare of tho whole com?
munity. Nor do wo seo how it can sub?
ject its friends to tho charge of unfair?
ness of any class of people.

"THE BEAUTIFUL SNOW"-WHO WROTE
IT ? - The Louisville Courier-Journal
seems to scttlo the question by authority.
The authorship has been ascribed to a
St. Louis lady who turned actress and
perished in disgraco at New Orleans,
while others have put tho laurel on the
brow of ono Major William A. ll. Sig
onruoy. Our Louisville contemporary
says Henry Faxon is tho author, and it
is no doubt correct.
Woman-a mother-she cherishes and
corrects us: a sister-sba consults aud
counsels ns: a sweetheart-sho coquets
us: a wife-she comforts and confides in
us: without her, what would become of
us ?
Madame do Stael once said: "If I were
mistress of fifty languages, I would think
in tho deep German, converse in tho gay
French, write in tho copious English,
sing in tho majestic Spanish, deliver in
tho noble Greek, and make lovo in the
soft Italian."
A Frenchman onco hired a room in
Puris on condition that the servant would
wako him up every morning nt daybreak,
and toll him tho day of tho week, tho

when ho was carried forth to his grave
his bands should not be wrapped, as was
usual, in the cere-cloths, but should be
left outside the bier, that all men might
see them, and might see that they were
empty."
GENERAL DBE IN FLORIDA.-General
R. E. Dee arrived at Jacksonville, Fla.,
on tho 13th inst., but stopped there ouly
short time, not even landing from the
steamer on which he was a passenger.
Largo numbers of citizens, however,
boarded tho steamer at tho wharf and
pnid their respects to him. He has since
returned to Savannah, Ga., en route for
Virginia.
It seems to us somo one wns inquiring,

for the murder of Georgo Off. Ho took

Education-tho most valuable part of
every man's education is that which he
receives from himself, especially when
tho energy of his character makes ample
