ports of Presbyteries were received.

rian Church, favored it, except the Euast j

WASHINGTON, May 20.-lu tho Senate,
the Pacific Railroad bill was placed on
the calendar, next to the bill reducing

over adjonrnment. The Houso Commit- ^
tee on Pacido Railroad considered the
trans-continental route, but no result

Bays they are fighting among themselves, (
and the result will bo, thoy will get no
road at all.

voted to the bill enforcing the fifteenth j

indemnity fund, passed.
A message from tho Senato was rc- ?
ceived announcing that the Senate j
had amended the House resolution of ,
adjournment by fixing July 15. I
The Commissioner of Internal Reven no
has written a very sharp official letter to j
a party in Albany who, it seems, has re- ]
cently brought oharges against a mer- (
chant of that city for violation of tho j
internal revenue laws, whieh, upon in- ,
veatigatiou, proved groundless. The ,
letter takes the ground that these self- ,
appointed detectives and voluntary spies,
who make it a business to bring charges ,
against honest men for technical viola- 1
tions of the law, have no claim to be 1
considered other than as disreputable
personages, and he administers a very
severe rebuke to the parlies in question.
Internal revenue receipts to-day
$897,000.
Supervisor Bridgolavd, of Texas, re?
ports that tho grand jury of that State
have found fifty-four indictments against
parties there for revonue frauds. Several
ex-revenue officers are among thoso in?
dicted.
Congress will adjourn on the 15th of
July.

Judge Jesse Lambertis, of Rome, Ga.,
who has joined 2,700 couples in tho holy
bonds of wedlock, did the good deed
himself on last Sunday. It seems that
ho required long observation to become
convinced of the utility of tho measure.

PORTUGAL, Too,-The revolutionary
ipasms with which France, Spain au
Northern Italy are chronically afflicted
ivould seem at length to have roached
tho comparatively quiet kingdom of
Portugal-despatches from Lisbon an
louueing the breaking out of a formida
ble iusurrectiou iu ono of the dominion
)f Portugal. No intimation is given as
bo what it is all about. Insurrections are
tho order of tho day, and it may be that
the Portuguese subjects aro anxious
merely to be in the fashion.
PROPERTY REDUCTION.-A New York
letter says that there are scores of houses
and parts of houses in the suburbs of
Brooklyn, to let or for sale, at prices
from twenty-five to thirty-five per cent,
lower than were asked before tho first of
May. In Hoboken, also, the offerings
of the same description of property aro
unusually large.
A NEW RAILROAD PROJECT.-It is stated
that a Senator of the United States, a
few days ago, visited New York for tho
purpose of getting up a Wall street
combination to push through a now
Southern railroad project in which he
and a small Senatorial ring are to be tho
beneficiaries. A memorandum made by
one of the beneficiaries, who is a Sena
tor, is referred to, and will, it is said,
show most unfavorably for him in an in?
vestigation proposed in the Senate.
Accounts from Hong Kong, via Bom?
bay, give flattering accounts of the pros?

are ?aid to promise largely above their
average yield.
A resident of Kansas writes to intend?

have six months' shaking with tho ague

A Connecticut Yankee has patented

Tn???tiai T REDu CEjXHft REVENUE.
Tho bill reported to the House by tho,
Com mit too on Ways nod Moans a few
days sinoe, for the reduction of internal
revenue taxes cute off the tax on legacies j
and successions, that yielded $2,484,693
last year; gross receipts of corporations,
88,444,210; speoial taxes of many kinds,
amounting to $28,744,752. It reduces
the yield of the income tax $5,741,105,
by increasing exemption to $1,500, and
throws off $83,966,736 by repeal of cer?
tain schedules. It levies three per cont,
tax on deposit of Qovernment money in
banks, amounting to $300,000. The bill
will be returned from the committee to I
whom it was referred within a week.
The action accords with an universal and
imperative demand. There may be de?
bate on the manner in which the reduc?
tions are made. Other interests will
naturally ask to be relieved as these have
been. But ns to tile advisability of the
main course of action, there can hardly
be two opinions, when the best and com?
pletest prosperity of business as a whola
is takon into account.
SOUTH CAROLINA IN WALL STREET. -
The New York Herald, of Tuesday, says:
"Tho agent of the State of South Caro?
lina in this city gives notice that, in ac?
cordance with instructions received from I
the Commissioner of the sinking f".nd of I
that State, ho will receive proposals for
the salo of $100,000 of South Carolina
bonds or stock, this action being the first
step toward the gradual extinction of the
State debt, which in all is about $6, OOO,
000. Tho bonds in the market at the
Stock Exchange to-day wero firm at im?
proved prices. Tho following were the

POLITICAL APATHY.-One of tho most !
depressing signs of tho times in this Dis?
trict is the groat indifference manifested
by the people in relation to their politi?
cal condition. This apathy does not
arise for want of a proper appreciation
of their situation, for in private convor-1
sation thoy aro freo and open in their
opposition to the present administration,
and solicitude f jr n ohunge; but they are
disposed to keep aloof from any practi?
cal effort to bring ubout a better condi?
tion of things. Tho Colombia PHOENIX
makes Borne apt remarks iu connection
with this subject, which wo commend to
our reudei s ns peculiarly appropriate at
this time.-Kingstree Star.
PROBABLE CHANGE CF ROUTE.-We
learn thnt the Port Royal Railroad Com?
pany aro having surveys mude for a route
to counect with the Charlotte, Columbia
and Augusta Railroad, ut Big Horse
Creek, soma three miles from Hamburg.
If tho proposed route should be deter?
mined upon, and the City Council per?
mits their trams to enter the city on
Washington street, over the Charlotte,
Columbia and Augusta bridge, the Port I
Royal Company will avoid the great cost
of a bridge at Sand Bar Ferry, with the
long trestle-work thnt would be required
on tho Georgia side of tho river.
